FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:DELIVERY
ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASSIONS MY CAR WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO MAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AND EVENTUALLY IT WOULD START BUT WOULD NOT STAY RUNNING UNLESS I KEPT GIVING IT GAS. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY THE WINTER FUEL FORMULA. THIS WAS CAUSING A BOILING OF THE FUEL AND A VAPOR LOCK CONDITION. HE ALSO SAID HONDA WAS AWARE THAT THIS WAS HAPPENING ONLY IN THE V6 AND THEY WERE WORKING ON A FIX. TO DATE I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED BY HONDA OR MY DEALER THAT A FIX IS AVAILABLE.

STRUCTURE:BODY
THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THE ARMREST ON THE LEFT FRONT DOOR HAS CRACKED. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS REPLACED THE CAR WAS UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND I WAS TOLD BY ZONE OFFICE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP TO HAVE IT INSPECTED BY DEALER. I DID AND WAS TOLD THEY FOUND NO EVIDENCE OF ABUSE. THE ZONE OFFICE CUSTOMER REP ALSO TOLD ME THAT IT CRACKED BECAUSE I LIVE IN A HOT CLIMATE. THERE ARE TWO SERVICE BULLETINS RELATING TO THIS PROBLEM YET HONDA CLAIMS THEY HAVE NEVER RECEIVED A COMPLAINT AND THEY CHOOSE TO IGNORE THESE. *AK
