BAD CASE OF USE. My 2008 is burning TONS of oil. After reading all these stories im shocked and convinced that this is a huge problem for honda. Want to charge me $4000 to replace piston rings that what cause the misfire! Now, Im concerned that there may have been damage to my engine. I was then told I would need to pay for a diagnostic for them to continue troubleshooting. I am having the same problem with excessive oil consumption with my car. your claim status, claim form or questions about when payments are I SHOULD HAVE KEEP MY 03 SS IMPALA NEVER HAD ANY THING GO WRONG WITH IT I JUST GOT A 08 HONDA V6 AN IT MAKE NOSE LIKE ITS GOING TO THROW A ROD SOUNDS LIKE THE LIFTERS ARE KNOCKING WHAT A PICE OF SH,,,,,T . Resulted 165 to 170 psi within service limit of 134.8 psi. There is nothin they want to do. I was told repeatedly at the local stealership that a quart of oil every 1000 miles is industry standard. I have a 2008 Honda Accord that also misfires. I said heck no Im not paying $1000 just to see if Honda will cover this KNOWN ISSUE! Im going to make signs to put on my car window telling the world about Honda. My sister bought me an accord V6 a few years ago, being a single mother and having owned previous Hondas I was set on getting just that for reliability and longevity. I have had my car in several times because of excessive oil consumption. Then the brake pads, now w/the oil burn excessive. The noise always gets louder when an oil change is due, which is always prior to when the dealerhip estimates when my next oil change is due. I didnt know about this law suit. I started experiencing problems with oil consumption in the second year. Hmmmm..please tell me how I can jump on board withthis class action law suit! Im not a honda specialist, lol! I drive roughly 1500 highway miles per month. I have read most of these posts and i was suspicious if actually Honda wants to fix the problem or just pretends to do so. We might have damaged the engine now he said. Danny, e-mail me and we will see what we can do for you, Im surprised you did not get a recall letter saying that Honda is aware of the motors burning oil and if your vehicle falls under this then you should be able to get it fixed.Do you still have warranty? I will never buy another Honda. This was 38k. I got the same letter a few weeks ago about oil consumption. We currently have 100,714 miles on it. Enough is enough. I was really looking forward to no car payments. Kept an eye on it since and i am going through roughly a quart every 1500 miles. UPDATE 2: This class action settlement now includes other Honda vehicles, including the Honda Accord, Odyssey and Crosstour. I mentioned the class action law suit and all the documented challenges on the internet . It is very distressing to hear that they are squandering such a hard earned and at one time, well deserved reputation for quality, reliability and superior value. Currently undergoing piston and ring replacement service. Wow, I cant believe the number of complaints im seeing on this issue. Dealer making me track oil consumption . Have a 2008 Honda accord 4 cy with a little over 35K on it. Owned a CRV for a number of years. I thought that the dealership didnt fill it clear up the last time the oil was changed. My check engine light kept coming on, I went to Honda with misfiring and first time they replaced spark plugs free aftee I kept going back. Honda has lost all credibility with me. We have been a Honda family for 15 years, purchases several new Hondas, and the 08 I purchased new has been a total dissapointment. Then on top of that, theres a very common problem with the top coat on the paint being defective. This shouldnt be happening. I know this isnt my fault and i cant afford a new car or even to replace engine on this car. We traded it in today for a 2014 Accord 4cyl, facing a $4000 repair on a 5 year old vehicle is outrageous. I should not be having to put oil in between oil changes. But, I dont see how I can this time. Been a Honda owner for our last 4 new cars not another after this. My paint is crap (from no fault of my own), VTC problems, high oil consumption, and $$$ Not much of a reliable car like they used to be. My 2010 i4 accord coupe that I bough about a year ago has started to burn oil! Was this news given to all dealerships so that the owners can get this problem fixed? Same story as everyone else. Get a lot of people to literally haunt them and make their lives miserable. These people are total crooks dealers and Honda alike; everyone denies, lies, hides, makes half-truth statements. I have had all of my maintenance done timely and with the dealer. Honda is refusing to cover any of these parts under the powertrain warranty citing a fuel injector cleaning done by Jiffy Lube approximately a month prior to the cars break down as the reason for the engines malfunction. The recall note allows owners to claim for past repair expenses also. 3 Rear brake pad replacement before car hit 80K and now vaves are knocking very laoud. I have been watching the excessive use of oil for about a year now. So when will we find out when we can take our cars to have them fixed?? Unacceptable.

Dave (#105 & #108), do you have any more details on the recall in Canada. After a oil consumption test, leak down test, and computer update, my wifes 08 Accord is still burning oil. Honda told me to bring it back in 1,000 miles for an oil consumption test. How can I join this law suit? This is unacceptable. I purchased a Honda for the first time after owning other cars because I was looking for something reliable. I have an 08 with the 4 cylinder engine. A 42 000.00$ mistake. I bought the car used with 17000 miles on it. The guy seemed to think it was funny, like I was dumb for bringing my car to him. right now they re looking and they havent found why..wonder they r trying hide??? Now a fourth sparkplug has fouled and am replacing almost 3 qts oil between oil changes. We shall see I checked the oil level after they did the oil change and it was well above the maximum mark on the dipstick. This time its my cat converters There are 3 on the darn car and they are all bad.. Honda will not include this repairing the misfire issue when cats are know to go bad if the engine is burning oil or misfiring Etc. It seems that it is time to switch car manufacturers! They replaced the pistons and rings(genuine honda parts) and I have since change the oil twice with 16,000 km. Have repetitively been told by my dealership that it is normal to have no measurable oil left if I dont get my oil changed at least every 3000 miles, which is insulting to my intelligence. I guess its a matter of time before this thing implodes. Dealership had me running back and forth for consumptions test to diagnose a problem. I fill 2 qts every 2000 miles. Thats been the indication the oil is getting. Now they say that Because my car as the original owner was in service at 2008 I am out of luck because I had up to 2016 to fix the issue. Add me to the list. You can also call Honda at 800-999-1009 or the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration at 888-327-4236. I think I should sell it and Say bye to Hondad forever. I was just told they are going to tear the engine down to a bare block and replace everything else. This was about 3 months ago now. Honda should be ashamed of themselves. Just came from the dealers service who said I need a new engine or a new car because of engine damage resulting in driving the car without oil in it. 3 months and the car is burning oil at the same rates as before (1 qt every 1000milles), If Honda agrees to rebuilt your engines ensure they replace the engine block as their quick fix isn t working! The likes of this I have never seen. Consumes probably just over 1qt per 2K miles which sadly doenst fail Hondas test. I googled it and low and behold I found a slew of bad news regarding this issue. Did to all 3. The guys that change my cars oil know me as, The only guy with a Honda that burns oil. Never buying a Honda again and would love to sue the sh*t out of them for this!!!

Have gotten the honda TSB 11-033 and same problem exists!!! Now I am being told that the only other option is to have the internal seals replaced and rebuild the engine. Can I be added to this lawsuit? What can I do to support this complaint in court? Honda says it needs the software updateI am taking it in on Saturday for the update.

The Fora platform includes forum software by XenForo. Complete bullshit. Software update didnt solve the problem. I thought most of the oil consumption problems was with the V6 Accords?
