Consumer Description

I was driving to college all of a sudden the car went into limp mode. Before I could do anything I called Honda and they didn’t answer so I personally drove it to the Honda dealership 10 minutes away from me. They inspected the vehicle and told me the head gasket has been blown. The car has been garage kept never abused and they are charging me $6,100 for the repairs. It’s been a common issue for the 1.5t engine of the Honda accord and they have yet to acknowledge their manufacture defect. Please do something about this I have to pay for college how in the world am I gonna have money to pay $6,100 for a repair cost.
