Actually, it would be, "Mister I-Start-My-Thoughts-Off-With-"AND" .

And, "... you guys don't like me" should have a period at the end.

Dag, I started a sentence with "And" also. Whoops.

I really have nothing better to do so I keep responding to this dribble, but it is VERY entertaining

And, "... you guys don't like me" should have a period at the end.
It does have a period at the end. Are you blind? The is my period. Actually, for me they serve as periods if they come at the end of a sentence.

Nice try though. Ask mom for another quarter and try again


P.S.

The guy waving at you is a period in the last sentence above as well as this one

Aaaaah. I understand now So, using the R2 rules of sentence construction, smiley faces can serve as punctuation I guess it can Things are so much more fun to read now I get it... cool

Shameless use of makeshift parentheses



all in jest, of course!

my deal was that every day for 14 days they said to me "your car will be ready tomorrow." the last friday they said "it will be ready on monday" I threw a fit, cussed out the service rep and peeled out of their parking lot. Called the manager and complained, went back and got a new yellow s2k loaner. my car was ready tuesday.

Grammar policing aside, I have a problem with this idea. It sounds like you are arranging a lynch mob before you know your offender.

Problem is lynch mobs get bored and end up looking for someone to lynch.

No one can deny that some legitimate claims get refused, but I think you are pushing sh!t up hill to try and suggest that all claims are legitimate. A certain incident of a stuffed diff and drag strip time slips left in the boot comes to mind.

If you want comraderie and brotherhood join a club. Or perhaps form one. Then if the need arises you can raise the masses in support of the good cause. Till then, untie the hangmans noose. All the above is just IMHO.

This idea is not new; in fact it is (was?) already being implemented on this board! Was in beta-test last I heard...

That was a good one. However, next time you may want to capitalize when you begin a sentence
Would you like another quarter?

The Unabageler
Whoa!! That is crazy! I have a question, did you dog out the loaner car?

Strike
Offended? My dear little friend, I am not offended. I was assuming we are all just having a little fun. I know I am

No worries, it was bound to happen to me sooner or later

AusS2000
A lynch mob? No, no, no.
No one can deny that some legitimate claims get refused, but I think you are pushing sh!t up hill to try and suggest that all claims are legitimate.
I first think you may want to re-read my first post. NOWHERE did I state or suggest that ALL CLAIMS are LEGITIMATE! Please re-read the first post for clarification. Oh and it is camaraderie NOT comraderie

Side note:
I do wish people would read the ENTIRE post before posting. No flames intended.

twohoos
Let me go check it out. Thanks a million.

Right idea, wrong approach. After being on this board for the past several months, there is certainly a strong indication that the differential and clutch are either inadequate and/or flawed in design or assembly. There are other suspect parts and systems too. I also believe that dealers are frequently unresponsive to concerns and clearly do not understand this car. This is evident when I read posts about people being accused of "abusing " their car because their S02's are worn after 10k miles! The treadwear rating for S02's is 150, which is very low compared to most other tires - even performance tires.

The correct response to these issues IMHO is to document all of the incidences of common issues and complaints and document the responses from dealerships and AHM. Present this to AHM and maybe even Honda Japan. If there is still no response, then start legal action in the form of a class action suit alleging a flaw in design or assembly. There are probably lawyers on this board that could advise on how to proceed. Picking out some poor dealership to stage a mass demonstration would most likely be ineffective and just exacerbate the issues. The idea is to get them to listen and take us seriously. Not to make them think we are a$$holes.

I also have an issue with the suggestion for this action coming from a person who has not even had a problem, is not a registered owner and lives in "the beach, US". WTF is up with that? If you live at the beach in So Cal, I suggest you go to Wesloh Honda. They have been great to S2K owners.
