I bought this brand new $17K car in August. I have replaced seven tires. All diff wheels. All different Continental tires 185/60 15..breakdowns on my commute home after midnight. Finally my 7th breakdown was broadcast as I was trying to cross the george Washington bridge at 1 am on valentines day and with Honda roadside assistance and my insurance co roadside assistance, no one came to my aid. I was blockintg traffic, as I tried myself to change the tire after two hours of fear that my car or I would be hit by a tractor trailor, and that would be the end of me. The electrical problem, all lights on dashboard on began after the second tire malfunction, and cannot be reset. I need to go to dealer and rent a car for them to figure this all out. Meanwhile, my gas mileage has major issues. I refuel ever other day. Same commute for 6 years. When I drove my MINIcooper, I filled up once a week. But three or four times a week? something is wrong with my car at 10,000 miles. It feels like a clunker. I am going to get rid of it. Look into my states lemon law and rid myself of this hunk of junk. I am also writing to Honda. But this tire issue has cost me over $1500 dollars in six months and time/safety issues. One buys a new car for freedom from problems. This is unacceptable customer service at the dealership, (especially since they knew of this "tire" issue.
