AXELS STARTED CAUSING EXTREME VIBRATION AT APPROXIMATELY 60,000. THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT INVOLVES MOST OF THESE CARS. I MADE A CLAIM, IT HONDA SAYS ISSUE DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH AND DISCUSSION WITH MY MECHANIC, IT SEEMS TO BE SOMETHING DEFECTIVE IN THE AXLE. HONDA REFUSED TO GIVE ME ANYTHING IN WRITING DENYING MY CLAIM, AND HAD MADE THE DECISION PRIOR TO SPEAKING WITH ME.
