MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR 3 WEEKS. IT HAS DAMAGE RELATED TO AN ACTIVE RECALL. THE ENTIRE BACK PART OF THE FRAME IS RUSTED, TO THE POINT THERE IS NO 'MEAT' TO FIX THIS ISSUE. WE ARE NOW GETTING ZERO RESPONSE FROM HONDA OR THE DEALERSHIP, AND NEED ASSISTANCE IN A POSITIVE RESOLUTION. THE HONDA CASE # IS: 10V436000. THIS VEHICLE WHEN TOWED HAD TIRES SEPARATING FROM THE BODY, AND IS WAY BEYOND A PATCH-FIX. I FILLED UP THE TANK, APPARENTLY, THE WEIGHT CAUSED A SEPARATION IN THE FRAME. WHEN STATIONARY, A BACK TIRE SEPARATED FROM THE FRAME WHEN THE TOW TRUCK ATTEMPTED TO LOAD THE VEHICLE. THE EXTENT OF FRAME DAMAGE RENDERS THIS UN-FIXABLE...BUT NOW OUR HONDA REP AND OUR DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER WILL NOT RETURN PHONE CALLS. PLEASE HELP!

MY CAR IS INVOLVED IN THE RECALL 10V436000 BUY BACK PROGRAM BUT THE DEALERS AS WELL AS HONDA ITSELF WILL NOT FOLLOW THE NHTSA GUIDE LINES THEY ARE MAKING EXCUSES AND LYING TO ME ABOUT RESPONSIBILITY THIS CAR HAS 111,000 MILES ON IT AND SHOULD LAST A VERY LONG TIME BUT THE FRAME IS COMPLETELY RUSTED AND CANNOT BE DRIVEN AND THE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS ARE ALL OVER BECAUSE OF THE FRAME MOVEMENT . I BELIEVE THAT THERE ARE OTHER RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE BUT HONDA REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR ANYTHING .
