2008 Honda Accord EX-L V6 review from North America
"Love the car... hate the company"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The plastic parts on the center door posts melted.
The front bumper is melting in the same fashion as the plastic on the door post.
General comments?
Was told door plastic is not a warrantable item. Replaced at my cost.
Was told the front bumper was also not warrantable, and that it was due to the sun shining in Arizona. Too close to another vehicles exhaust. Issue escalated to Honda America who denied my claim of defective material.
Honda America has serious issues with lack of support for the client. I cannot recommend Honda to anyone looking to purchase a new vehicle.
