| I had taken for a recall on my honda 2003 civic ex at mcdavid honda of irving. i recently had a oil changed at mcdavid honda of irving. after the oil change, there was a difference in my car's performance. its takes a lot to throttle the car from start to run, if its on incline road. the gas milegage has gone down from 30mpg to 27 mpg. when asked to have a look at it, the service adviser said $ 99 for diagnose. when i took the delivery after the recall was done, i noticed my air bag light has come-on. i asked the service adviser about the light, he said the light was on when i delivered the car to them. there has been no accident, and the light just came on by itself. they told me, i have to pay $99 to have honda to diagnose the problem. i talked to american honda, they said as your warranty has finished, american honda is not responsible for any repair and services performed by any authorized honda dealership | |||

| As i was leaving the parking lot of a shopping center, and about to get on the roadway, i came to a complete stop. when the opportunity came to proceed, i stepped on the gas pedal (throttle) and it got stuck to the floor for approximately 10 seconds. i immediately stepped on the brake pedal as hard as i could, to prevent the car from moving forward at a high rate of speed, however the car kept creeping forward. i managed to engage the emergency brake, which seemed to have helped. as an attempt to loosen the throttle, i shifted the shift lever from drive to park, back and forth a couple of times, to no avail. as i was about to attempt to turn the ignition key to the off position, the throttle became unstuck. during the incident, the engine was running at high rpms. i took the car to the dealership and explained to them what i had experienced. the master mechanic took the car for a test-drive and confirmed that the throttle was getting stuck. during the actual inspection, the mechanic(s) found out that the throttle body and cable needed to be replaced. the repair was done and i had not had another such incident since then. | |||

| The clear sealant on the paint suddenly started to erode. now large sections of the roof, hood, and rear trunk area look like the car has some kind of skin disease. it's an unsightly mess that has lowered the car's value and makes it look like a junk heap instead of the well-maintained and running car that it actually is. i would like honda to pay to fix it like they do for any other issue that they are negligent about. | |||
