Honda Class Action for '06 Civics?

BamaCivic · 01-22-2007, 02:41 PM

I heard recently that a class action suit went up against Honda Mfg. in relation to their speedometers being inaccurate. I don't know how true this is and maybe someone already posted. Supposedly the speedometers are putting more miles on the vehicles than they are supposed to. It does affect '06 Civics. The settlement was for 5% additional warranty miles. So if you had a 100,000 miles warranty then you would recieve an extra 5 on top of that. If anyone has any information pertaining such as a website to back this up then please post. Thanks

idk, seems pretty accurate to me. at least in the small distances i drive, i don't notice a difference. It's still ~32mi from my house at school to my parents'. :/

It is old news, but helpful for those who weren't around when it was new news, so to speak.

Everyone should be getting something in the mail by March or April, I think.
