CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE THE MOTOR STARTED TO SPUTTER. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SERVICE MANAGER STATED THAT A RODENT HAD EATEN THE WIRE THAT GOES TO THE AMBIENT TEMP. SENSOR. PER DEALERSHIP THIS SENSOR CONTROL THE ABILITY FOR THE MOTOR TO PROPER ADJUST FUEL MIXTURE BASED ON TEMP. CAR ONLY HAS 20018 MILES AND THEY STATE THAT THE DAMAGE IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. WHEN TALKING WITH HONDA REP HE STATED THAT THE WIRES ARE SOY BASED. *TT
2011
SEAT BELTS
NOTE: THIS IS THE SECOND FRONTAL BASED CRASH LISTED ON THIS SITE FOR A HONDA 2011 CRZ PERHAPS THE DRIVER THAT WAS INVOLVED WITH THE PREVIOUS CRASH DID NOT REALIZE THE BRAKES FAILED. AT APPROXIMATELY 17:17 I NOTICED THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WAS STOPPED IN TRAFFIC I TRIED TO APPLY MY BRAKES AND PUSHED THE BRAKES AND THE CAR DID NOT SLOW FOR AT LEAST 1 1/2 CAR LENGTH. IN A PANIC I TRIED TO PRESS HARDER WITH BUT NOTHING HAPPENED THE CAR NEVER SLOWED. THE CRASHED INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WITH THE FULL FORCE OF FORTY-FORTY FIVE MPH AND TOTALLY COLLAPSED THE ENGINE INTO THE DRIVERS CAB BOTH OF MY KNEES WERE BLEEDING AND SWOLLEN FROM THE IMPACT OF THE ENGINE BEING IN THE DRIVERS COMPARTMENT. THE POLICE OFFICER TOLD SOMEONE THAT HELPED ME OUT OF THE CAR IT LOOKED LIKE I NEVER PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL. HOW CAN I HONDA CHARGE A PREMIUM WITH RESULTS LIKE THIS AND EXPECT PEOPLE TO COME BACK. IT IS WORSE FEELING IN THE WORLD TO REALIZE YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY BRAKES AND YOUR SAFETY EQUIPMENT YOU PAID A PREMIUM FOR FAILS TO WORK. HONDA HAS LOST A CUSTOMER FOR LIFE AND I SHOULD HAVE LISTENED TO THE ACCORD OWNERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE RECURRING BRAKE REPAIRS.THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY UNTIL THE VEHICLE WAS FULLY STOPPED AND I HIT MY HEAD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW. CONSUMER REPORTS WAS RIGHT THIS CAR DOESN'T DESERVE TO BE RATED! *TR
