2008 HONDA CIVIC, PAINT COLOR GOLD IS FADED ON HOOD, ROOF AND TRUCK. THIS CAR IN NOT OLD ENOUGH TO LOOK LIKE IT IS TEN YEARS OLD! I HAVE WAXED IT TO HELP PREVENT PEELING OF PAINT BUT DOES NOT HELP.

I SUFFERED A CONCUSSION AND CERVICAL NECK INJURY. THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS INVOLVED AND NO WEATHER CONDITIONS. ALSO I WAS GOING BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT. I CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT EXPLAIN NOR HELP ME WITH THE AIRBAG NOT DEPLOYING AND THE CONCUSSION I SUFFERED.

THE PAINT STARTED TO PEEL AND WHITE AREAS APPEARED ALL OVER THE BODY OF MY NEW GREY HONDA CIVIC. I TOOK IT TO MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY DETERMINED THAT THE PAINT WAS DEFECTIVE. I GOT A SECOND OPINION WHO ALSO SAID THAT THE PAINT WAS DEFECTIVE AND THERE WAS AN THERMAL ISSUE DURING THE INITIAL APPLICATION PROCESS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD REPAINT ONLY CERTAIN AREAS AND SAID I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE RENTAL CAR. I TOLD THEM I WASN'T COMFORTABLE WITH PARTIALLY PAINTING THE CAR, THAT THE OLDER PAINT WAS ALSO DEFECTIVE AND WOULD OBVIOUSLY FADE TOO. THEY SAID IT WASN'T THEIR PROBLEM AND THEY WOULDN'T DO IT. I WILL NEVER TRUST HONDA AGAIN. *TR

HAVE BEEN RETIRED FOR OVER A YEAR, SO CAR HAS NOT BEEN SITTING IN SUNLITE AT WORK. SHOWED SERVICE MANAGER ON AUGUST 09,2013 AND HE TOOK PICTURES AND SAID HE WOULD CONTACT SOMEONE AT HONDA SINCE THERE WAS A 'GOODWILL' ALLOWANCE FOR THIS AND MY CAR IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY NOW. I HAD A 93 ACCORD FOR 16 YEARS AND NEVER HAD ANYTHING LIKE THIS TO HAPPEN. GOT THE USED 2008 CIVIC IN 2009 WITH VERY LITTLE MILEAGE. IT IS TO LAST ME REST OF MY LIFE, I THOUGHT.

I BOUGHT A USED 2008 HONDA CIVIC COUPE FROM A DEALERSHIP A YEAR AGO. IT WAS A ONE OWNER CAR. I NOTICED THE TOP HAD SOME PAINT / CLEAR COAT WEAR SO I HAD IT PAINTED. NOW THERE IS A LOT OF PAINT / CLEAR COAT WEAR ON THE SIDES, TRUNK AND DOORS. IT LOOKS LIKE AN OLD VEHICLE. HONDA SHOULD USE MORE CARE WITH THEIR PAINT AND CLEAR COAT PRODUCTS. I OWN TWO OTHER CARS, TOYOTAS, WITH NO PAINT PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER. I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD TAKE AN INITIATIVE TO HAVE THEIR VEHICLES RE-PAINTED. IT LOOKS TACKY. THERE SHOULD BE A WARRANTY ON THE CLEAR COAT AND PAINT. I HAVE NOTICED MANY HONDAS LIKE THIS AROUND 2008 AND 2009 MODELS - DARK COLORED PAINTS. I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER HONDA IF THEY CANNOT INCREASE THE QUALITY OF THEIR PRODUCTS. *TR
