All of the above dates and mileage are approximate. i have the information on paper at home. i have also had the hardest time with honda financial services with them calling me and saying that i never paid my monthly bill (last fall), which i did, and then finally they found the check and said "oh, our mistake, it has been here the whole time." and then now, i have them saying that i was in default of my lease because they never had information for my insurance, which my insurance was supposed to send them that information. i checked back with them a week later (today) and they said that they were going to impound my car because my insurance company never got back with them. called my insurance company, and it took 5 mins. to have someone fax over proof of insurance. that was all - was it that difficult??? this car had to have the back brakes replaced after 25000 miles (about a month ago - it was making this awful noise, like rattling chains underneath) - that should not have happened. the back window tinting lifted up after 1 year, the tire blew out on the freeway 1 month after getting it (leased the car aug 2001). the service engine light has come on twice, for no apparent reason. and the srs light was on 2 different times. had it turned off the 1st time. then 1 week later it was back on, brought back to my dealership and they said it was something wrong with the computer system, but they could not give me a good enough explanation. when i first was looking for a car at the dealership, this car was not on the lot where all the other cars for sale were, it was in the back, by the service department. asked the sales rep if the car was in okay condition and he said it was, and there was nothing wrong with it because it only had 10 miles on it - i should have known then. this car is a pain in the behind and it is just a hassle for everything that keeps happening with it. | |||
