Consumer Description

The pistons and piston rings have failed, and the engine burns oil rapidly. There is no indication by the vehicle of the issue as far as any dashboard lights, etc. I brought my vehicle into the Honda dealership over a year ago with a noise the car was making. I was told by Honda that my car had burned oil, and to do an oil consumption test and the results would be submitted to Honda corporate. Honda corporate forced me to do multiple oil consumption tests for over a year while my car was still in warranty. Now that my car is out of warranty, Honda corporate will not pay for my car to get fixed. This is a huge safety issue because this car in that year's make & model will burn oil to the point without making the driver aware of it until the engine combusts and can destroy the engine entirely. Anyone with this year make & model should not have to worry about their car having a factory defect and the dealer refusing to pay for it. There is nothing I could have done to cause the piston and piston rings to fail. Especially for the fact that I am the first owner of this car.
