I HAVE BEEN DOING SOME RESEARCH AND THIS, AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE MAKE AND YEAR OF CAR. I HAD MY CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT'S GOING TO COST ME $3,300 + TAX FOR THE REPAIRS. I JUST WANT TO ADD MY NAME TO THE LIST OF PEOPLE THAT FEEL THEY HAVE BEEN RIPPED OFF BY A MANUFACTURER WITH A FAULTY PRODUCT. *TR
