This is a problem with earlier model years (2003-2004) of this model run. In 2007 Honda issued a 7 year/100,000 mile warranty extension letter for these years.

Just purchased 2005 Honda. The illumination of the panel of the heating and cooling control panels are not bright enough. It is very poorly lighted.
