Consumer Description
As my car falls under this law suit and no legal action has been taken for it, I'm reporting that the Head gaskets for the 2018 Honda Accord Sport 1.5L are not properly designed for the wear and tear on a 1.5L turbo. I'm not great with describing car and there internal functions, so please refer to the active court case (3:24-cv-02286). This is an on going issue with the 1.5L Accords and is well known by the company. This issue typically comes with a ~$4500 replacement of the Head Gasket. In my case, I also head to replace 2 injectors that the dealer ship was saying were read as feeding rich. A common diagnostic that can also be caused by Coolant Leaks. These problems causes my car to flare every warning light available. I have no heat from the heater. My car sometimes won't shift or go into gear. I've yet to get this fixed as the mechanic is still awaiting word from me to proceed, so I don't have a invoice for the Head gasket repairs.
