While driving a few weeks ago I noticed a very yellow large spider crawling across my dashboard. I almost ran off the road finding a napkin to kill it so it didn't get on me as it was making it's way to me very quickly from the dash towards the steering wheel!!! then a couple days later, another spider. (me thinking I didn't get the first one!?) then a couple days later another spider and this morning while at the dunkin donuts drive-thru, another spider!!!!! all of these I have managed to kill which only tells me that there are a bunch of spiders in my dashboard or something!!! the one today came out of the vent just over the A/C vent drivers side!"?!"! each time I see one, it's on the dashboard initially and then quickly moves around. This is the last thing I need and I want the car torn apart to find out where they are coming from and have them removed immediately! I'm freaking out! I am waiting on call backs from both hollman Honda (the dealership which has never heard about any spider issues) as well as the customer service dept. Of Honda itself to open a case about this matter. Being that they are poisonous (Mazda had a recall about this very issue evidently although Honda isn't issuing a recall at the moment). The car is brand new and I paid cash for it otherwise, I would trade it in if it were a lease. I am terrified of spiders and these are poisonous!!!! help!! I can't keep driving this car! scared out of my mind and needing a remedy fast! [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
