Consumer Description

ON A CITY STREET, AFTER SLOW ACCELERATION AFTER LEAVING A STOP SIGN,WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME, THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM SUDDENLY ENGAGED AND HARD BRAKED THE CAR. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME OR I FEAR I MIGHT HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED! ALSO I AM CONCERNED THAT HONDA HAS NOT ACKNOWLEDGED A PROBLEM WITH THE EARTHDREAM TURBO 1.5 ENGINE CAUSING GASOLINE TO ENTER THE OIL. I LIVE IN MARYLAND, USA AND HONDA HAS DONE RECALLS IN CHINA AND NOW CANADA TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE AS WELL AS POOR HEATING, BUT NOT IN THE USA. I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED THAT THIS WILL CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE IN THE FUTURE LONG AFTER THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED AND HONDA WILL NOT ACCEPT LIABILITY! I AM ALSO CONCERNED THAT THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL TO ADDRESS PROBLEMS WITH THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER. MANY OWNERS ARE REPORTING THAT THE BUTTON YOU MUST PUSH IN TO SHIFT INTO OR OUT OF PARK WILL BREAK WITHOUT WARNING, PREVENTING SHIFTING GEARS.
