Consumer Description

There is a crack in the block that has nothing to do with external damage or lack of maintenance. It is available for inspection upon request. The engine lost a significant amount of coolant and started to overheat on the highway. This could have resulted in engine seizure and a major accident. Our service person has confirmed that the block is cracked and that this has been identified by Honda as a known manufacturing defect. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone else. The Honda dealer is not interested. The only warning was that the temperature gauge shot up.
