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

“Air conditioning failed. Took vehicle to Honda dealer and was informed that damage to condenser was caused by road debris and is not covered under the warranty. $800+ to repair, with only 22,568 miles on the vehicle.”

NHTSA complaint #10267100, filed 2009-04, 22,568 miles

“To whom it may concern: I tried talking to Honda where I got the car... And they refuse to pay for any damages to my car caused by their faulty jack. What happened: I had a flat tire. I went to fix it using the jack included with the car/spare tire. I used the specified lift points (even checked my owners manual 3 times). I've taken automotive engineering classes at college and even a car care class in high school- as I'm no stranger to working on cars. The jack bent sideways and completely collapsed- while I was in the process of taking off the tire. …”
