THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN RUNNING ROUGH IN THE HIGHWAY AND ROUGH WHEN IDLING. WE HAVE CHOSEN TO KEEP IT BECAUSE WE HAVE TRUST IN HONDA'S RELIABILITY. FIVE DAYS AGO, THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND THE WHOLE FAMILY WAS IN IT. ALL OF A SUDDEN, ITS ENGINE SOUNDED LIKE 'JUNK' WHICH NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE. WE WERE ALL NERVOUS AND CONFUSED AND WE WERE ABOUT 20 MILES AWAY FROM HOME. OUR SAFETY IN THE CAR WAS UNCERTAIN AND THE ROADS GOING HOME HAD VARYING SPEEDS BETWEEN 30 TO 65 MI/HR. WE KNOW TODAY THAT THE ENGINE HAS SEVERE PROBLEM DUE TO HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION WHICH IS EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING.

INSTEAD MY FAMILY HAS BEEN @ RISK FOR FAR TOO LONG! I BOUGHT MY HONDA CRV EX-L BRAND NEW! I'VE BEEN DRIVING IN A DEATH TRAP EVER SINCE! WHY WAS HONDA NOT REQUIRED TO CHANGE BOTH AIRBAGS? 2. I'VE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON THE AC COMPRESSOR/CLUTCH'S THAT HONDA HAS KNOWN (FOR 10 YEARS) WERE DANGEROUSLY PLACED, CREATE MALFUNCTION OF COSTLY AC SYSTEMS, (CHILDREN DIE IN HOT CARS FAR TOO OFTEN) FROM HEAT STROKES, ETC. AS POSTED ON YOUR WEBSITE! THE AC/COMPRESSORS PICK UP HAZARDOUS MATERIALS/WASTE THAT IS THEN PUSHED THROUGHOUT THE AC UNIT! AIRPORT HONDA HAS HAD KNOWLEDGE BEFORE MY WARRANTY EXPIRED OF THIS PROBLEM IN CRV'S. THEY DID NOT DISCLOSE THIS COSTLY ISSUE, NEGLECTED TO FIX IT, & IT DID MALFUNCTION. I PAID FOR COSTLY REPAIRS, & I PAID HONDA FOR A PLATINUM VEHICLE WARRANTY! I'M CONCERNED THAT NHTSA HAS NOT HELD HONDA RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS STATING IT'S NOT SAFETY ISSUE WHEN IT VERY CLEARLY IS! AS A NURSE & PARENT I PUT MY CHILD IN A CARSEAT WHICH AUTOMATICALLY INCREASES HIS TEMPERATURE. THEN YOU ADD AC ISSUES IN TN RECORD HEAT & HUMIDITY (WHICH ALSO AFFECTS THE AIRBAGS) & IT'S A DEADLY COMBINATION! THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE,& IT IS NHTSA'S RESPONSIBILITY TO HOLD HONDA ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR CHOICES NOT INFORM THEIR CUSTOMERS & CONTINUE PUTTING THEM IN DANGER. TN IS KNOWN FOR BRUTAL HEAT, HUMIDITY, ASTHMA, & ALLERGENS! THIS IS A PUBLIC SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE MY PAPERWORK TO LEGITIMIZE MY CLAIM! INVESTIGATE THIS, MAKE HONDA NOTIFY CUSTOMERS! MOST PEOPLE CAN'T AFFORD THESE REPAIRS! WE HAVE HAD 90 DEGREE DAYS THIS OCTOBER, ,& MY CRV IS BLOWING HOT AIR AGAIN! PLEASE CONTACT ME IMMEDIATELY & INVESTIGATE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE!
