problem #1

Accord EX 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 70,000 miles

It is obvious that Honda cars begin to make noise from the body integrity after a few years. This may be due to the bumpy roads or whatever. The dealer I bought it from had no suggestions on how to solve this problem.

On another issue, Honda's extended warranty is not worth it. I bought it when I bought my car for $500+. It was for 5 years or 100,000 miles. ALL of the shields on my catalytic converter/exhaust system rusted to the point of rattling, on the verge of falling off. The cost to repair it was estimated at $1400. The dealer said it was not covered under the extended warranty despite the writing in the warranty that said that you WILL NOT have to pay for any big repair costs under this warranty. The dealer said that they could do nothing about it. At this point I am going to appeal to the corporate office.
