This car is a lemon. I have had so many problems I can not believe it. The sunroof has been replace 3 times, the headliner 2 times. The fuel gauge sticks at times, even after filling the tank it only shows it's half full. The egr valve has been replaced once, and it now is bad again. I burn 93 octane gas, supposedly the cleanest, but my dealer tells me it's from dirty gas. The fan for the climate control chirps like a bird.
Went to honda dealership in santa maria ca and they agreed to do a oil consumption test. When oil change was due I took again and they said I have to take it sooner. On the receipt of oil change dealership in deed did write a message that said it wasted to much oil. Will continue to take to dealership for further test. I was just wondering if my car was the only car with this particular problem. Also my steering wheel slightly shakes and makes a light noise, doesn't run as smooth as it use to. Will contact dealership for that matter.
Engine continually bucks and stalls, unable to rectify problems.
Engine continually stalls, replacement of the PCM (not failed), did not rectify stalling.
Engine leaked oil due toa defect in the mold used to cast the engine block.
Fuel purge valve in the emmissions control system is making loud noise when purging the vapors into the coal cannister. Honda is making no effort to repair because they believe the system is performing the way it should. I believe this vehicle falls under the lemon law.
Consumer has been experiencing ongoing problem with vehicle hesitating when consumer starts to accelerate from a stop position. Dealer notified, and informed consumer to bring vehicle in when condition reoccurs again, or when the engine check light comes on.
When pulling onto the highway and upon depressing the accelerator pedal the vehicle hesitates and cuts off. Vehicle also exhibit a hard shift condition. Consumer contacted dealer, but dealer could not duplicate problem. Dealer repaired vehicle with an unknown part, but problem was still present.
