NHTSA Complaint #11440248 — 2007 HONDA CIVIC

As I was driving down the road my car began to smoke and I noticed it was overheating at a stop light. I managed to be able to pull off of the road before the smoke got any worse. It may have had the potential to cause a fire. I was able to fill it with enough fluid to manage to take the car to my house so we could take a closer look at the issue. We found that there was coolant leaking out of the engine block and that there is a known service bulletin for the issue that has been released by Honda. It was apparently only applicable to cars that were less than 10 years old to cover under warranty. Given that my car only has 81,000 miles on it I would expect it would be covered under this warranty but they are telling me they will not cover any of the costs at all.
