Consumer Description

I have been told my vehicle is a lemon. I believe the regular maintenance schedule that I have been adhering to should somewhat avoid this issue. I have went to two Honda Dealerships, Ed Napelton and one in Orland Park il. THREE weeks ago I drove and parked came back attempted to start and my Baby would not start. I noticed when i attempted to turn the key the needle would go to the top. I waited a while the car started took her in to wd Napelton, They kept telling me nothing was wrong. They said I could leave because they did not choose to figure out why my vehicle had just not started, so I went to my car to leave and she did not start right their in the parking lot. I went and go my mechanic and he tried to start it wouldn't start, he looked at the dash and said your car is overheating. Im asking why it was just here for a oil change and some other work prior to that. I had file a BBB complaint. The director called ke in for a meeting with the mechanic and from what they are saying because No one has given me anything in writing, I was told to be careful driving and every week My coolant should be topped off. They did say the coolant is leaking into my engine. I got a 3rd opinion and honda ahould have goven me a detailed description of the diagnosis. The sales department is bothering me about buying my car, I told them NO, I need my cat I cant afford another vehicle. My gut is telling me Honda has done thia to my engine thinking I will have to buy another Vehicle. Please Help Me get a proper diagnosis and I need to know how this issue was caused? My last recourse is speaking with ATTORNEY.
