  • Battery sensor may short. This could lead to a fire.
  • Connecting rod bolts may be improperly torqued. This could cause the engine to stall, which may lead to a crash. The added heat may also present a fire hazard.
  • Replacement engine assembled with wrong pistons. This could cause the engine to stall suddenly, increasing the risk of a crash.

Report your problem with your Honda within the original warranty period and you will have the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act working in your favor. This federal law was designed to protect consumers from unethical warranty practices. If a dealership failed to fix a warrantable defect in your Honda within three or more attempts and/or your vehicle has been twenty or more cumulative days out of service, you may have a viable suit against the manufacturer for breach of warranty.

You may also have state lemon laws on your side. Like the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act, these laws exist to extend extra protection to you, the consumer.
