NHTSA Complaint #11221547 — 2015 HONDA CR-V

I AM WRITING YOU BECAUSE I HAD TO HAVE THE STARTED REPLACED ON MY HONDA 2015 CR-V. THE VIN NUMBER IS: [XXX]; VA LICENSE [XXX]; MILEAGE 47,332. IT IS UNREASONABLE TO HAVE A VEHICLE OF THAT YEAR AND SUCH A LOW MILEAGE WITH STARTER PROBLEMS AND HAVING THE STARTED REPLACED. THE FINAL BILL FOR THE WORK CONDUCTED WAS $727.16, INCLUDING PARTS, LABOR AND TAXES. I SUSPECT THAT STARTER PROBLEMS ARE INHERITED FROM A POOR DESIGN WHERE THE STARTER IS EXPOSED TO EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM THE MANIFOLD. THEREFORE, ALL CR-VS' DESIGNED IN A SAME MANNER ARE RELEGATED TO THE SAME FLAW. CONSEQUENTLY, ALL OWNERS OF THE SAME TYPE OF VEHICLE ARE FORCED TO INCUR THE UNREASONABLE COST OF HAVING TO REPLACE THE STARTER AT SUCH LOW MILEAGE. DONE INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT
