Consumer Description
JANUARY 20 2019 CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP JANUARY 21. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY, A/C UNIT, DID A PROGRAM UPDATE, CHANGED THE OIL AND DRAIN PLUG. TOLD US IT WAS FIXED. HOWEVER, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY GAVE ME PROBLEMS --MORE THAN BEFORE. I WAS ACTUALLY TRAPPED IN MY CAR AND COULDN'T OPEN THE DOORS 3 TIMES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THE SAFETY SYSTEM CONTINUOUSLY ALERTS BLINDSPOT ACTIVITY, THE MESSAGE "SOME DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEMS CANNOT OPERATE" , THERES A MESSAGE THAT SAYS "COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM DISABLED" THAT APPEARS, THE HAZARD LIGHTS GO ON INTERMITTENTLY AT WILL. TODAY, WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A TIRE PROBLEM AND MENTIONED ALL THESE OTHER MESSAGE FAULTS, THE DEALER CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS TOO HIGH (THE "FIX" WAS DONE JUST 10 DAYS AGO) AND THE DEALER TOLD US, "YES, BUT THERE'S NOTHING MORE WE CAN DO, CALL HONDA." SO, I HAVE A $37,000 PIECE OF JUNK I CAN'T TRUST TO TAKE ACROSS TOWN. PS WE WERE COERCED INTO PURCHASING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY -- WHAT GOOD IS A WARRANTY IF THE DEALER ADMITS HE CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM?
