Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHEN I NOTICED THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE RISE QUICKLY PAST IT'S NORMAL RANGE. I QUICKLY GOT OFF THE ROAD AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THE MECHANIC FOUND THAT THERE WAS NO FLUID IN THE RADIATOR. HE DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS A SMALL CRACK. HE INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH 2007 CIVICS. HE TOLD ME I COULD PUT ANOTHER MOTOR IN IT OR BUY ANOTHER CAR. THE CAR HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED AND I HAD EVERY INTENTION TO KEEP IT FOR SEVERAL MORE YEARS. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT HONDA DID NOT INFORM ME OF THE DEFECTS IN THE ENGINE.
