A complaint is an unverified owner report. It is a signal about where to look, not proof of a defect.
Verbatim excerpts from NHTSA complaint filings on this model year. These are the owners' own words, not our diagnosis, and each one is a single unverified report.
MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR 3 WEEKS. IT HAS DAMAGE RELATED TO AN ACTIVE RECALL. THE ENTIRE BACK PART OF THE FRAME IS RUSTED, TO THE POINT THERE IS NO 'MEAT' TO FIX THIS ISSUE. WE ARE NOW GETTING ZERO RESPONSE FROM HONDA OR THE DEALERSHIP, AND NEED ASSISTANCE IN A POSITIVE RESOLUTION. THE HONDA CASE # IS: 10V436000. THIS VEHICLE WHEN TOWED HAD TIRES SEPARATING FROM THE BODY, AND IS WAY BEYOND A PATCH-FIX. I FILLED UP THE TANK, APPARENTLY, THE WEIGHT CAUSED A SEPARATION IN THE FRAME. WHEN STATIONARY, A BACK TIRE SEPARATED FROM THE FRAME WHEN THE TOW TRUCK ATTEMPTED TO LOAD
