 Water leakage in passenger cabin in the front, left passenger side footwell area. when i bought the car 4 years ago, it was hard to confirm that there was a leak as it could have been melted snow/ice trudged in from outside (winter) or water transferred in by shoes (summer). when it rained there was always a damp area on the carpet, but only recently when we were experiencing heavy rainfalls which confirmed there was a leak. the local dealer has traced the leak to the area of the left fender/firewall area where the seams have come apart. i have brought the car in to the dealers bodyshop to address the problem. they said that they have corrected the problem; however it remains to be confirmed. mileage: 7,937 miles. *tr

 I took my vehicle into a honda dealership to get my left fender repaired. when the fender was removed, mechanics noticed that the bumper reinforcement was not on the vehicle. the vehicle is a certified used vehicle and was to be in no accidents. i had to pay for the parts out of my pocket to have the car up to honda standards. *jb

 The clearcoat has entirely burned away from the roof, hood and trunk and is spreading to the side panels resulting in a milky, splotchy appearance. i'm not sure how much damage this will do or if it will shorten the life of the vehicle but i do know it's unacceptable and it looks very damaged. *tr
