While driving on interstate engine lost all power and engine light came on, driver pumped the gas pedal and the engine regained power, it almost caused an accident.
The vehicle was in motion, when the check engine light started flashing and the vehicle started jerking. I rushed to the dealership and I was informed that there was misfiring and they had to update the software, replace the spark plugs. They also informed that the piston rings were leaking and some of the engine oil was burnt, I also heard that this was an issue on this vehicle that others had faced, a class action lawsuit had been filed where honda had provided a warranty extension and not a recall, so the issue will have to be handled by me. I was worried about my family's safety and honda was not ready to resolve the issue.
I went to the ourisman honda of laurel sevice department to have them to replace the fuel pump system due to a recall that I was initially unaware of. They stated that they would fix the issue at no cost. Later, I received a voicemail that stated they were unable to fix the fuel pump system due to the conversion of the van. I was told that the fuel pump system was moved to a different area when the van was converted to a wheelchair accessible vehicle. Therefore, they made claims to not have normal access to the fuel pump system. They have now declared the recall repairs to be null and void. Ourisman hoda of laurel has refused to repair, replace or refund the equipment or parts.
