Windshield leaked water, dealership refused to fix. windshield cracked and was cited by police officer for not fixing, dealership refused to fix. upon replacement the repair guys just laughed and said that that glass was seated improperly and asked who had replaced it. i responded that it was the original, they told me not to buy any more hondas. key would no longer work in the driver side door. replaced something at dealership for $800 as well as the driver side window as it stopped moving due to the motor dying at around 60,000 miles. now the keys don't work in the passenger side of vehicle nor does the window. in another incident the vehicle failed to stop after fully depressing the brake when traveling about 5-10 mph and drifting into another vehicle causing moderate damage. honda has not responded to any inquires made by consumer. nor has dealership. i still owe 10,000 dollars on this car, have spent over 3000 in repairs and at this point want to drive it into a tree at a high speed. *kb
My honda element has had two windshields replaced and now a crack again at the base moving up. stress cracks not foreign material hitting the car. i simply cannot afford a 500 deductible to get another windshield..... *tr
Stress crack appeared on windshield directly opposite rear view mirror. crack begins above area of windshield exposed to outside air, extends straight down for several inches, then veers left several inches and stops. nothing hit the windshield and there is no impact point along the crack. iphone camera picture was taken by service manager, copy submitted to honda for review. honda declined responsibility. no paperwork generated. *tr
