What owners wrote
I was parked in shopping center. I came out of cvs pharmacy and carefully backed my car out. I began a left turn lane (still in shopping center) not into main road and suddenly the car's speed escalated rapidly and I could not stop it - it jumped the curb and in trying to avoid hitting shops car crashed headlong into light pole. It would appear that the gas accelerator was stuck. The airbag came on and I was injured by that. The front end of auto was badly damaged.
The paint began to fail and I contacted honda's website as directed to find all issues (recall and TSB - technical service bulletins) and there were no items. From 2015 on we would check. Then I found an article that said it was covered under an extended paint warranty. I was never contacted. I called honda and they declined to fix it saying that I purchased it used. They gave me a $7000 quote to fix the car. They said because I bought it used, they did not have to contact me.
