Stans Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 I'll be damned! I had my 2003 Honda CR-V in the dealership one month ago for a headlight wiring recall. Today, I received notice that it has been recalled again! This time it is the driver's side airbag inflator, which could explode and send metal fragments through the bag and into me. This has been the worst vehicle I have owned. In just nine years and 80,000 miles it's been through several recalls, failed oxygen sensors, failed struts, failed air conditioner, failed windshield washer reservoir (which was evidently leaking when it left the dealer's lot) and failed electric locks. This is the third airbag recall for this vehicle. One would think Honda would have gotten it right after the first and surely after the second recall.

Redfalcon Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 There's another thing!, cars!....why the hell make normal road cars that do twice the speed limit?.....so now you need more police paid by tax payers money to arrest people braking the speed limit in cars that have a ridiculous max speed, cars are what people like to buy to prove they are wealthy, its like look at me I have this car therefore I'm better than you!?......how childish is that?, you all should be only allowed a Citroen C5.

Stans Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 The base model of a Citroen C5 can do around 110 mph, my CR-V can't go that fast. Now this guy did get his 2003 CR-V up to 108 mph, but his was the V-Tech engine with some modifications. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stans Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Yeah, well I'd like to go even faster. Then again, speed kills. Maybe I'll leave this stuff to Dank Hellmut. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redfalcon Posted June 8, 2012 Report Share Posted June 8, 2012 Because I want to do twice the speed limit. Well thats fine in a controlled environment like an abandoned air strip.......but not on public roads, also I would like the hanging of salesman's jackets on the rear seat hand rails to be a serious criminal offense.

I never liked Top Gear anyway, it was full of 'look at me I have this car and therefore I'm better than you' people. .........Clackson is quite funny though.
