I didn't really want to just
I didn't really want to just keeping typing comments, but will anyway: I can't say I've ever really been impressed with Honda, but I expected better. And although Honda self-advertises themselves as a "value brand", the sticker prices seem high if they really are a value brand. Aside from the rust and the items I am seeing on line just today, another issue that doesn't impress me about Honda, is their dealership service departments (where else do you take a vehicle when it is under factory warranty?), but their dealership service departments don't seem to care nor are ever interested in investigating any customer concerns while under factory warranty, and that attitude comes across as that if they would find an issue that Honda, rather than consumer, have to pay for a repair, they don't want to do it and are not interested in looking at all into the consumer concerns. This body rust issue, reminds me of the similar rust issue I encountered on my 2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo, which didn't appear until after factory warranty expired and at least investigated and discovered body wasn't painted correctly (rear quarter panels), but I didn't have the $2500 to pay for half the repair (just like I won't have the $$$ to pay for the Honda repairs). I expected much better from Honda (1st Honda I've ever had and will now be the only and last one).
