I first experienced an engine misfire in February 2025. The vehicle had a P0301 misfire code, and at the time I was unaware of Honda’s extended warranty related to this issue. We had a trusted mechanic friend inspect the vehicle and replace the spark plugs and ignition coils. He noted that there was significant carbon buildup. After those repairs, the vehicle appeared to run normally, and we believed the issue had been resolved. Later, I received Honda’s extended warranty notice and realized that the issue I experienced may have been related to the condition covered by the warranty. I contacted my local Honda dealership in August 2025 and explained the prior misfire, repairs performed, and the warranty notice I had received.

American Honda Motor Co., Inc. issued an official Warranty Extension in July 2025 covering engine misfires from piston ring deterioration (DTCs P0301-P0304) on 2013-15 Pilot and 2013-17 Odyssey vehicles.

Honda has withheld my funds for 178 days (which is 122 days past their promised 8 week deadline) while corporate customer care agents falsely claim payment is “approved but pending final management sign- off.” I have called 11 times and corporate managers who are never available HAVE NEVER returned my calls like the representative with Honda I've spoken with each time assures. This deliberate delay subverts federal...

I drove very slowly over a speed bump by my local public high school and my airbags deployed. My hand was burnt from the airbag, my insurer gave me 14K + to repair the car, but that was not enough and so I took the money and bought a different car. furthermore because of this , my insurer increased significantly my monthly premium. My young children were in the car and were terrified. My insurer also only paid for a certain amount of days with the rental car, and I had to pay out-of-pocket for the other days.
