Default dead car follow up

so, i lied in the last post becuz denial is cool.

anyways, what basically happened was, i was playin with my car (cuz its so sexy) redlining it and all, then on 3rd to 4th...i went 3rd to 2nd (as quite a few ppl have done before might i add). pow went the car. anyways, i'm not paying the $7k or however much it is. we went to Keyes Honda here in the valley (on reseda/sherman way) and the service manager there sympathized with us (it was human error) and talked it over with Honda of america. honda of america decided to cover it for us this time, but next time its gona burn a hole in our wallet ;]

AT 100 bucks I would buy it just to tear the thing down. To bad whoever it is has a nice sized reserve on the thing. But man that takes guts to walk up to to a dealer and say you made a mistake., not something I would do but talks some balls. That is if this really is the whole story.

You're pretty lucky that Honda is actually going to cover this. I'd be writing some thank you letters if I were you.

He did not tell us the truth. Do you think he told the dealer the truth?

for American Honda Motors for your amazing understanding and generosity. AHM is one class act and deserves the many praises it gets and its great success in the American automobile market.
