Accord 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission

When first braking after the car sits overnight, the brake pedal is hard and with it in reverse it backs up and cant be stopped without pumping the brakes. Wife backed into car in driveway and dented the trunk lid on the Honda. Thought it was one time deal, but it happened 3 more times. Took it to dealer and they had tsb on and fixed it. Brake hose would collapse and cause failure. They put a new hose part 7185473, I called Honda, they would not fix dent because it was not a recall, it was a tsb. This was a dangerous situation and I should have been notified.. their attitude was it was my fault that the brakes did not work and will not repair the trunk damage. What do I do"?"
