From ALLDATA.com:
IMPORTANT NOTICE

American Honda Motor Company has requested ALLDATA to deny
access to Acura and Honda repair information. Effective immediately
you will not be able to register for access to Acura or Honda vehicle
repair information, technical service bulletins or recalls.

All comments should be directed to:
American Honda Motor Co., Inc.
P. O. Box 2206
700 Van Ness Ave.
Torrance, CA 90501

Honda: 800-999-1009
Acura: 800-382-2238

ALLDATA is currently negotiating with the manufacturer to resume
providing this information. At this time we cannot estimate when this will
occur. Please accept our apologies for any inconvenience this may have
caused you.
Since Honda has done this, it makes it harder to find TSB about our cars. I used to use the site to keep informed about my Civic, but I now cannot do that for my new S2000 (and not longer for my Civic). Wonder why Honda is being to secretive?

Also, can ANYONE get me a copy of a particular TSB? I am looking for:

TSB #---Issue Date--TSB Title
92012---JAN 96------Front Seat Belt Warranty
91030---JAN 96------Seat Belt - Slow to Retract
96009---FEB 96------Wind Noise From Front or Rear Door

These concern my 95 Civic. While it was still under warranty the dealer said he could "find" these TSBs and said they didn't exist!

Thanks VA S2K. That NHTSA site is great. Notes complaints about stereo and plastic rear window which you can't see through. Don't like this bullying aspect of Honda corporate. Makes me want to get all accessories with non authorized logos, except I'm not a logo kind of guy.

The only problem is that NHTSA does list all of the "silent" TSB's. You are still at the mercy of your local Honda dealer for this information.

Dont we have a member here who has a brother that owns or works at a Honda Dealership? Thats how we found out about the 1-2 grind tsb. Perhaps he can keep us informed on any new tsb's.

In the meantime, we should all write Honda so they know that we are upset with the restriction of getting information to their consumers. Heck, I've had 6 honda cars in the past 11 years! Thats gotta be worth something to them.
