Consumer Description

All 4 Door locks failed. Yes it is available for inspection upon request. The safety of anyone who is inside the vehicle is at risk. Yes the problem has been confirmed by an independent service center. It has been inspected by an ASE certified mechanic. There was not any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the first failure. An OBD2 scanner didn't show the vehicle as to having any issues with it as well. The day after I bought this car, the locks will lock and unlock while driving the car and when the car is turned off as well. I don't have any of the key fobs that go to the car, only the Valet key that doesn't have any buttons on it, and only locks and unlocks vehicle through the keyhole on driver's door. After class dismissal at 10pm, I went to enter the vehicle, but looked inside it just in case, and knowing the locks didn't work properly, and saw a man laying in the back of the car. I walked over to another class member close by and called campus security. The man must have heard us and got out of the car and ran. While running a gun fell to the ground but was reported stolen, he's still out there. I just purchased the vehicle 8 months ago and won't drive it anymore due to the faulty door locks. There isn't a recall on the locks and why should I have to pay Honda to replace them with another set of locks that could have the same issue. I was lucky that I was able to get a ride back and forth to school but lost my job due to lack of transportation. I'm out $5800, a car, a job, facing eviction, and now on psychological medicine due to faulty door locks. This is my 3rd and last Honda I will ever own. Thanks Honda.
