i'm not expecting to much, it's the most expensive car being only a vti, corolla etc is much cheaper! i was willing to pay the extra for honda's so called high quality, oh and we just had our 20K service done and told them about the window problem and they just sprayed lube on it! WTF!!! it's a problem, they should fix it not just use a "band aid" fix! we're never buying a honda again! they seem to be turning overpriced pos!
and heres you being ignorant....
Are you not reading through all these problems..?? these are not supposed
to occur on a BRAND NEW vehicle this is a item of transport, people sit, eat,
breath, drink, travel is these vehicles... when your paying 30k you expect nothing but "Grade A" quality, its holding onto your life at 100km/h and some
dont know what it is, but a brand new life wielding, road rocket. should
not
* Break down - its brand new...
* Have window issues - then be fixed with window lube its nothing to do
with window track dryness
* Have flat tyres after you leave the dealership
* Have Interior Panels popping out just because its a little warm outside
just aint on...
yay, my 6 stacker broke down today. it comes up with MECH ERROR. You cant load any cds. Anyone know how to solve this problem? OR just take it to dealer?
look it up in the troubleshoot in the manual if its got one if not off to the dealer
MECH ERROR - Mechanical error - CD jammed in the stacker perhaps??? CD too scratched
i looked in manual and it said to remove something. Dont remember as i dont have it with me. But what to remove? Everything is integrated. CDs are all in good condition.
mine happened sudenly. basically some bolt came loose near the engine pulley. cracking and dislodging the pulley. and i think the effects adversely affected the engine or at least the lower block.
they said the changed a whole new engine in but i dont beleive them simply coz it sounds like my 8 year old corolla. it feels rougher than usual. more sharp whiney noise when u are off the throttle after a little acceleration(i.e blipping the throttle). all this together with window problems, cam belt knocking noises, ticking noises somewhere in the cabin, misalligned plastics which i dont think should happen on a new car. especially one below 3000k's on the clock.
with the comment by someone who said we expect too much from a car. i think its justified because it is one of the reasons why we chose to buy a honda in the first place....and buying a 'brand new' one instead of second hand.
while i dont expect it to last as long as the corolla which i still have which has been problem free even until the smallest parts like light bulbs and battery havent been replaced....at least 3-5 years problem free for the honda is good enough as with all new cars should be anyway.
btw, the new problem ive 'over'heard while being a too frequent guest at the service centre is that the air conditioning on thai built jazz'es are malfunctioning. which is not functioning at all.
thai built jazz malfunctioning.. its hard not to be bias about things being built by thai's.. just to save a few grand.. we get a car that malfunctions.. -_-".. we have had a jazz since 02.. when they first came out.. and its never skipped a beat...
Hi guys, bumping an old thread to the top here.
The thing that strikes me as the most 'wrong' about some of your statements is that you're generalising civics saying that ALL 8th gen's are of an infeiror build quality.
You're all wrong - Nobody's going to come on this thread, or even this forum and complain about how wonderful their cars are... aren't they.
All you'll ever hear from this forum are cries for help threads, 'what mod should i do' thread or a thread full of pictures.
I have FD1. Had absolutely no problems with it. It is, in a way, the perfect car for what was spent on it.
