NHTSA Complaint #11152581 — 2006 HONDA CIVIC

ENGINE BLOCK CRACKED DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED BY HONDA AS A RECALL WHETHER OR NOT THERE WAS A LEAK YET. 10 YEAR WARRANTY ONLY FOR A LEAK DURING THAT TIME DOESN'T MAKE THINGS RIGHT. AND MOST PEOPLE NEVER GOT THE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS PROBLEM UNTIL IT WAS TOO LATE. PEOPLE BUY HONDA BECAUSE THEY HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE LONGEVITY OF THE MAIN COMPONENTS, LIKE THE ENGINE, OF THESE VEHICLES. WHY IS IT FAIR THAT OTHERS GOT A FREE ENGINE REPLACED BUT OURS LASTED A LITTLE LONGER, MAYBE DUE TO BETTER CARE OF THE VEHICLE, AND WE GET NOTHING FOR THE SAME DEFECT? MAKE THIS RIGHT, HONDA!
