THE CLEAR COAT IS COMING OFF MY CAR. IT STARTED DOING THIS IN THE PAST YEAR. IT LOOKS HORRIBLE IT'S JUST ON THE TRUNK AND THE PANELS ON TOP OF THE SIDE WINDOWS. APPARENTLY THERE WAS A RECALL ( 14-034) BUT THIS HAS EXPIRED AND HONDA WILL NO LONGER COVER. I CALLED THE PREVIOUS OWNER OF THE CAR AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER RECEIVED ANYTHING FROM HONDA. MY CAR WOULD QUALIFY FOR THIS RECALL AND IT'S OBVIOUSLY CAUSED BY THEIR FAULTY PRIMER/PAINT MIX. PLEASE HELP.

THE BRACKET THE HOLDS THE ALTERNATOR AND IS CONNECTED TO THE ENGINE BLOCK SNAPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. I LOST POWER STEERING AND THE BELT CAME OFF. THE ALTERNATOR WAS JUST DANGLING.

PAINT ISSUES - THE FRONT HOOD OF THE CAR, FRONT FENDER, AND FRONT SIDE FENDERS HAD TO BE REPAINTED DUE TO FAULTY CLEAR COAT ISSUES. THE ROOF HAS THE SAME ISSUE, BUT IS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY REPAIR WINDOW, EVEN THOUGH THE ISSUE IS WITH THEIR CLEAR COAT AND NOT MY VEHICLE; MY VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED AND WELL CARED FOR INCLUDING WASHING AND POLISHING. PICTURES OF THE ROOF ARE PROVIDED WITH NO FILTER OR ALTERATIONS TO THE PHOTOS; THE TRUNK HAS (KNOCK ON WOOD) YET TO SHOW ANY OF THESE ISSUES, BUT WAS ALSO PART OF THIS SAME FAILURE. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PICTURES OF THE HOOD, FRONT/SIDE FENDERS AS THOSE WERE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY.
