Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“Radio goes on and off, bells ring, dash lights go on and off. Vehicle stops. Looks like a dead battery, but is not. It has been in the shop for over three months this time. Neither the honda dealer or an independent dealer can find the problem. Problem is ongoing occurring about every three months. Honda dealer told us car was repaired. We went to pick it up, and it wouldn't start. Had it towed to an independent repair shop. They can't find the problem. This has been ongoing since about three months after we purchased the car in 1998.”
