About a month and a half after purchasing this vehicle I took my family (wife and kids) on a weekend trip. It was about an 8-hour drive there and 8 hours back. About 3 hours into the trip my left leg started aching where it meets the seat cushion. I made mention of it to my wife and decided to push on with our journey. About 20 minutes later the pain had radiated into my left hip, and lower back. Luckily I had a pillow in the car that was brought for the kids to lean on as they usually nap on these long trips. I have spoken with the dealer and Honda corporate. Corporate wants a repair estimate to move forward, and the dealer will not provide me with one because after a lengthy test with another Hr-V it was concluded that the issue exists in all Hr-V models and therefore is a manufacturer defect/issue. This puts me between a rock and a hard place. I wish I could do what others have and just trade this thing in leaving Honda and looking at it as the worst decision I ever made and move on with my life, but I do not have that option at the moment.
