Yeah like after 10,000 kms you are going to have problems with these things anway, and besides you would think if there was an issue they would notice it on a routine oil change when the car is on the lift.
But my best rant is saved for when I had my Chrysler Intrepid. The transmission cooling lines were leaking slightly where they attached into the radiator. Dealer tells me they need to replace the lines at a cost of around $400.00. I told him where to go, took the car to a mechanic at the top of my street. He tightened the connection nuts at no charge and the leak stopped.

WoW that Chrysler dealer had some big nutz.
I'm not really surprised with any of the Dealer Rants in here at all. Alot of the crazy S$#@ that is done at the dealers should really be brought to the attention of American Honda & Canadian Honda. Honda is in no position to loose us or any of it's customers because of poor service. Most dealers profit more from service then they do from selling new cars.
I recently sent emails and hard copy letters with my problems to my dealer and American Honda. I started doing this so should the rest of you, it just takes a min to print out a copy of your email and drop it in the mail.
