 The window regulators and power door locks on the honda's i own keep failing and cost more than 300 dollars to repair. this seems to be a systemic problem on the honda's. i have had this happen on all 4 doors of my 2000 honda accord and 2 doors on my 2004 honda pilot. honda needs to do a recall and fix this issue. people shouldn't have to pay for a systemic issue in the car, which can be a safety issue as well as you can't put the windows down or up once this happens. *tr

 The consumer purchased a new vehicle with an aftermarket sunroof which was installed by an aftermarket shop. the dealership told the consumer that the sun roof was a legitimate option. he had been lied to and now the owner feels this the vehicle is unsafe because it leaks when it rains and when going through the car wash. the dealership will not take the vehicle off the road and the owner feels that he is not getting anywhere even after talking to the manufacturer. provide further details. *jb

 The dealer had a sun roof installed as part of the purchase price. it has had multiple problems ranging from vibration noise at low speed to excessive wind noise and also electrical problems. perhaps honda should stop putting in sun roofs if the car isn't designed to accomadate one.*ak
