NHTSA Complaint #11163926 — 2017 HONDA HR-V

THE FUSES FOR THE CIGARETTE LIGHTER, WHICH I COMMONLY USE TO CHARGE MY CELL PHONE GOES BAD A WEEK AFTER IT'S FIXED AT THE DEALERSHIP. THEN WHEN I START TO USE THE USB PORT TO CHARGE MY CELL PHONE, THAT FUSE MALFUNCTIONS AS WELL. THE HONDA TECH WHO WORKED ON MY CAR THE FIRST TIME TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. IF THE VEHICLES ARE IN RELATIVELY NEW TO BRAND NEW CONDITION WHY ARE CUSTOMERS HAVING TO PAY TO FIX THESE FUSES EVERY FEW WEEKS? THE OTHE IS IS THAT THIS HONDA MODEL HAS SO MANY FUSE BOXES, SOME WHICH ARE HARD TO ACCESS. FOR THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE TO BRING IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP, WHICH THEY IN TURN CHARGE ME TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.
