2010 Honda Crosstour Problems

I PURCHASED A USED 2010 ACCORD CROSSTOUR FROM HANOVER HONDA IN PA, IN NOVEMBER, 2018.HAVEN'T HAD IT QUITE A YEAR, IN MARCH OF 2019, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND THE CAR STARTED TO MISFIRE INTENSELY.CODE P0301 CAME UP.I TOOK IT TO MARTIN HONDA IN DE AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE COMPUTER SOFTWARE HAD TO BE UPDATED AND A FEW OF THE SPARK PLUGS HAD TO BE CHANGED. $345.00 LATER, THEY SAID THAT THIS WAS A "TWO-PART" REPAIR AND WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN, THEY WOULD DO THE 2ND PART WHICH HAD TO DO WITH THE PISTONS & SOLENOIDS.IT HAPPENED AGAIN.OCTOBER, 2019, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MY HUSBAND FOUND THE CAR TO BE MORE THAT 2 QUARTS LOW ON OIL.THE CODE NOW IS P3497.TOOK IT BACK TO MARTIN HONDA, AND THEY TOLD ME EXACTLY WHAT ALL OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS SAY. ROCKER ARM SWITCHES NEED REPLACED.THEY SAID "LET'S TRY AN OIL CHANGE AND RE-CHECK IT IN ABOUT 1000 MILES". THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THAT ALL HONDA SERVICE CENTERS KNOW ABOUT THESE COMPLAINTS.THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR, WOULDN'T HELP ME AT ALL. RICHARD AT HONDA HEADQUARTERS AGREED WITH THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT MARTIN HONDA IN DE, AND DENIED MY CLAIM.ALL I WANT IS FOR HONDA TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR ENGINE DEFECT, AND MAKE IT RIGHT.I PAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS VEHICLE, JUST TO HAVE TO PAY FOR SOMETHING THAT IS A KNOWN DEFECT.I HAVE ESCALATED MY CONCERNS WITH HONDA.THEY ARE GOING TO HAVE A HUGE LAWSUIT, IF SOMEONE DIES BECAUSE OF A DEFECTIVE ENGINE THAT BLOWS UP.IT WOULD BE EASIER AND CHEAPER FOR THEM TO RECALL THESE MODELS. IN THE PAST, THEY HAVE HAD MANY COMPLAINTS AND CLASS ACTION LAWSUITS SETTLED FOR THESE EXACT ISSUES WITH THE V6 ENGINES.THIS IS ALL GREED. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT TYPE OF STREET, OR WHERE THIS ISSUE HAPPENS.THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST IS JUST COVER UP AND A WAY FOR HONDA TO SAY "YOU'RE PAST THE WARRANTY". THAT SHOULDN'T MATTER EITHER. I THOUGHT HONDA WAS BETTER THAN THIS.

PLEASE, PLEASE BACK OFF ON YOUR HEAD REST REQUIREMENTS FOR SAFETY. PLEASE ALLOW THE CONSUMER TO CHOOSE THE POSITION OF THE HEAD REST. NOT ONLY HONDA, BUT FORD, GM, CHRYSLER, ALL MANUFACTURERS ARE CREATING VERY PAINFUL CAR SEATS SINCE 2009 DUE TO THIS AWFUL HEADREST REQUIREMENT. SEATBELTS ARE A LAW, BUT I CHOOSE TO WEAR THEM. MOTORCYCLE HELMETS ARE NO LONGER A LAW, BUT I CHOOSE TO WEAR THEM. NOW LET ME CHOOSE MY HEADREST POSITION. I THINK THESE NEW DESIGNS ARE GOING TO CAUSE FAR MORE INJURIES AND INSURANCE CLAIMS FROM PEOPLE HAVING THEIR HEADS COCKED FORWARD, IN A FORCED IMPROPER POSTURE. I HAD MIGRAINES DUE TO MY HEADREST BEFORE I RESOLVED THIS ISSUE IN MY CAR BY MAKING MODIFICATIONS. I SIT WITH PROPER POSTURE AND MY HEAD IS FORCED FORWARD. THE ONLY CHOICE I HAD WAS TO SIT IMPROPERLY IN ORDER TO TRY TO AVOID THE TERRIBLE DISCOMFORT THIS NEW LAW FORCES ON ME. PLEASE CHANGE THIS LAW. *TR

ON SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 2010, UPON OPENING THE TRUNK, THE REAR CARGO AREA COVER DROPPED DOWN AND HIT MY FOREHEAD LEAVING A LARGE BRUISED LUMP. IT WAS COMPLETELY UNHOOKED WITH NOTHING HOLDING IT IN PLACE. TODAY, IS NOVEMBER 30, 2010 AND I STILL HAVE PAIN AND HEADACHES. THERE IS NO LOCKING MECHANISM FOR THE REAR CARGO AREA COVER. IT APPEARS THAT THE SIDE HOOKS BECAME UNHOOKED (PRESSURE FIT ONLY) AND THE "MOUNTING PINS" ARE AS THE HONDA FLETCHER SERVICE MANAGER SAID, ONLY FOR GUIDANCE AND ALIGNMENT. NOT TO PROVIDE SUPPORT. THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT THE REAR AREA CARGO COVER TO NOT FALL OUT AND DOWN. AND WHEN SHOWING FLETCHER HONDA'S SERVICE MANAGER ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2010, THE PROBLEM AND UNHOOKING ONLY ONE SIDE HOOK, THE COVER FELL DOWN ON THAT SIDE FIRST, THEN THE OTHER SIDE HOOK FAILED TO HOLD THE COVER IN PLACE AND THE ENTIRE COVER FELL DOWN. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAYS HE HAS NO ABILITY TO CHANGE DESIGNS, HOWEVER, WILL PASS THIS INFORMATION ONTO HIS HONDA REP. I WAS GIVEN A 1-800 TO CALL AND WILL CALL HONDA UPON COMPLETION OF FILING THIS COMPLAINT. *TR
