Takeo Fukui is his name. I think they put the i in the wrong place, it
should be i****u or "i fuk u"
I have two Honda vehicles one is a 2000 Van and the other is a 97
accord. Both of them are the biggest piles of crap I have ever owned.
The Transmission was replaced twice in the accord since I bought it
three years ago. The van transmission has been replaced 3 times under
warranty and twice since out of warranty. The van side power doors
don't work for a **** either. They were fixed 4 times while under
warranty and 2 more times since out of warranty, that's each door. On
top of all that the accord has a bad (Really bad!!) vibration that
comes and goes and no one can seem to figure out what it is. I have
been to numerous places and they all have a different story and want
to charge me money to fix things and it never gets fixed. I have
replaced half shafts more than once on both sides; main carrier
bearings that the half shafts slide into have been replaced. Replaced
the tires and front wheel bearings and also replaced motor mounts.
Nothing has fixed it. The van has a similar problem only it is
constant and it is only around 80MPH that it gets really bad. Honda
East in Columbus Ohio had it several times and all they ever did was
balance my tires. They told me they couldn't drive the van at 80MPH to
test drive and see what I was talking about. So after convincing them
to let me drive them at 80MPH so they decided to pull a fast one on me
and change my speedO so that when I am going 80MPH according to my
speedO I am actually only going 72MPH. At that speed you can hardly
notice the vibration. So this is how Honda takes care of its
customers? On the van I have also replaced bearings, and half shafts.
So all I can think of is this CEO over there in Japan laughing at all
of us while he makes millions off us here in the US. I have owned
quite a few cars in my 40 years and never had money pits quite so
deep. Not even my high school hotrod cost me this much money and time.
I have lost all faith in Honda and would suggest to anyone even
thinking about buying a Honda to reconsider and think of your options
first. Not only about the cars but the service too.
