Warranty extension
It looks like a lot of us suddenly have a longer warranty -- or we will,
when the dust settles.
Not a huge issue, but Honda was sued by a few people claiming that the
odometers of many Honda & Acura products were overstating the distance
driven, thereby reducing the actual mileage available under warranty.
It's a class action suit, so anyone who bought or leased a Honda or
Acura (new) between April 13, 2002 and November 7, 2006 gets 5% added to
the mile limit of their warranty.
For most of us -- the 36/36,000 people -- that adds up to a whopping
1,800 extra miles of warranty.
No admission of any odometer problems by Honda. Just a little extra
warranty. I've never noticed any problems with mine...
when the dust settles.

If the odometer was reading incorrectly,then the speedo should also be
inaccurate.That's how the odo reads miles,isn't it?

Hmmm, I have always wondered why the trip computer portion of our 2003
Accord's factory navigation system always shows an ever so slightly
shorter distance traveled than does the trip odometer. I normally reset
the trip odometer at ever fuel fill-up and the navigation computer does
so automatically.
Nothing which really worries me, but interesting anyway!
