I feel for you guys having to go through all of this. Its a tremendous amount of effort and frustration dealing with a problem like this and I applaud the majority of you in this thread for excercising unwaivered patience with the dealerships and soa.

Some people have chosen to say that their representatives or dealers lied to them. This may not be the case, as typically, they legitimately do not know, or have not heard. When they say they havent heard of the problem, they may very well be telling you what they think is the truth. They are not in any way intentionally misleading you. It would make no sense to do so, it is not advantageous for any reason. Please dont use that as a reason to be angry or hate your dealer service techs. They are people too and just want to do their job and get you back on the road.
The service techs take the brunt of a lot of peoples anger and frustration, but it is not their fault. They are the unfortunate casualties being the ones that face the unhappy customers whenever there is a problem, and rarely is anyone happy when they have to bring their car in.

So I guess what im saying is, be nice to your techs, they take a lot of crap on a daily basis.

For those who are concerned about buying the car after reading this thread, please keep in mind that only people who are experiencing the issue are posting here. I believe the number one respectable member came to was 5-7% of all sold to date was affected. Don't let this thread stop you from buying the car of your dreams. It isn't a honda recall of 1million of their top selling cars.

I have a lot of respect for you guys going through this and keeping your cool, approaching it rationally and attempting to help the community to a resolution.

Almost makes me want to get a cel just to join in!
