Some parts of hood shows material fatigue and potential to have structural damage/holes into hood. Vehicle was inspected by authorized dealer (AutoNation Honda Hollywood, Florida) of Honda. Report # [XXX]. Case number with American Honda Motor Company [XXX] . Both dealer and manufacturer refused to acknowledge that issue warrants any remediation mentioning that VIN number and color of vehicle is not part of the recall.

Issue is wide spread and can be seen by multiple complaints and manufacturer communication section of NHTSA.GOV website.

Honda need to address the issue diligently to have issue correct to prevent further damage to hood and potential safety hazard at high speed.
