i traded this vehicle in to AutoNation Acura South Bay in Torrance CA on 1/2/23 and purchased one of theirs. My 2010 Honda trade had 233,566 miles. They failed to forward my vehicle release to DMV and I began receiving parking tkts. I contacted the dealer. They said it was taken care of. I kept getting toll evasions. I contact the dealer again and requested they send me a copy of what they said was sent to DMV. When I reviewed the DMV registration report, I saw the odometer had been rolled back to read 105,266. That is a difference of 128,300 miles. That is fraud and a extreme safety hazard to that buyer and other drivers.

While driving my 2010 Honda Accord crosstour on the freeway the engine light started flashing, I immediately took my car to Honda of stockton. They notified me that my car is burning oil excessively. Bank 1 pressure switch /bank 2 pressure code P3400 /P3497 vps stuck off both banks. Check engine come on and eco will not work they charged me $150. Honda tested the vehicle and has evidence of the excessive oil consumption. I researched this due to them saying to fix this issue it would cost me $8000 and found there is an extended warranty add for this problem but the dealership says my car does not qualify. The extended warranty recall states that 2010 Honda Accord's qualify, but they will not make repairs for excessive oil consumption which has caused my catalytic converters to fail as well as my spark plugs and piston rings. I have researched and advised the mechanic this is called the vtc acuator and seems to be common in 2008 to 2011 Honda Accord's.the dealer instructed me not to drive my car it could catch fire and blow up and to contact corporate which is my next step.

Once a year while driving the front end of the car starts making a loud thumping noise. It almost sounds like the engine is thumping against the front hood. The car will then completely break down. When trying to start the car again it will not start, but the lights and radio will turn on. When I took my car to Honda the advisor first advised the piston rings in the engine needed to be replace, but I guess since the car service manager did not want to replace it he had the team replace my stark plugs.

Two weeks ago, I was driving at approximately 55 mph, the car felt as if it were switching gears sluggishly. Then I noticed the engine light had come on. I took the vehicle to O'reilly's to investigate the engine light which was caused by a P3400 code/bank 1. I researched the code and purchased 2 quarts of the 0W20 synthetic oil. The light went out after driving approximately 10 miles. I then made an appointment for an oil change, however the dealership was closed for the memorial day holiday and rescheduled for tomorrow (3 days later). The light has since come back on; I again checked the oil and had to add 2 quarts of 0W20 synthetic oil. Once again, the car is sluggish and has a new symptom of knocking when accelerating. I will have it towed in the morning for the scheduled oil change to ensure nothing is damaged. I have done additional research and found that I had received notification from Honda last year in reference to a class action settlement for service bulletin (#11-033) that addressed excessive oil consumption from a "systematic design defect that enables oil to enter into the engine's combustion chamber. This leads to premature spark plug degradation and engine malfunction." Hopefully, the dealership will repair the defect once and for all.
