| 1995 | ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE | ENGINE OIL SEEPAGE FROM FRONT OF ENGINE BLOCK, COST ME $1400 FOR LABOR, HONDA TOOK CARE OF ENGINE COST. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE HONDA CONDUCTED A CAMPAIGN FOR ENGINE OIL LEAKAGE. HONDA SAID, THAT WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR WASN'T CORRELATED TO THE CAMPAIGN. EVERY SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE I TOOK MY CAR TO A CERTIFIED HONDA CENTER PLUS THE CAR HAVEN'T DRIVING A LOT IN 2000 SINCE I'M IN THE MILITARY AND DEPLOYED TO KOREA FOR A YEAR WITHOUT MY CAR, MY WIFE WAS ONLY DRIVING THE CAR ON BASE AND SHORT ERRANDS OFF-BASE. I WANT FOR HONDA TO ADMIT THAT WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR WAS A MAJOR SAFETY MANUFACTURING DEFECT AND REIMBURSE ME FOR WHAT I PAID ($1400) TO GET ENGINE REPLACED.*AK |
