| Light display went out that controls radio and hvac components 2 years ago. dark at night when driving and when the windows get fogged up you can not see the switch to turn on defrost because the printed circuit board has stopped working, so it requires you to turn on interior light to find the defrost button, this is very dangerous while driving at night. after researching last night i found honda extended the warranty on this until 2011 or 100,000. so i called honda and i was told i'm past the warranty it's whichever comes first (i never received a letter from honda or it would have went in to get fixed) this in my opinion should be covered by the dealer as it could cause a fatality with someone fumbling with the interior lights just to get the defrost buttons on. *tr | |||

| The passenger window began rolling up and staying up all on its own, at anytime it wanted. it would return to normal working order after i restarted the car. then one day- it rolled down, and would not work again. i found out i could override with the keys to roll up. but id have to window lock to stay. then one day we smell burning- we traced it to the door- and the override no longer works. now the driver window is beginning to do the same behavior. so far i've replaced driver switch= 325.00 --quote for motor= 400.00--i know it will need the switch too... that is over 1000.00 just to get the window up??? that is absurd! *tr | |||

| My radio and a/c display went out. i have to turn on my interior lights at night to adjust the temperature in my car. it is extremely dangerous if my windows get foggy and i cannot fix it without pulling off of the road. this car needs to be recalled. i should not have to pay $1000 for a problem that all of these models are having. | |||
