SINCE SO MANY LIKE TO COMPLAIN...: HONDA 2002 CIVIC SEDAN RECALL

Since so damn fuc*ing many of you complain about my useless replies, threads, topics, than here is something to compensate it.

http://www.tc.gc.ca/roadsafety/recal...sp?recno=9686&

Make: HONDA
Model: CIVIC SEDAN
Affected Year(s): 2002
Units Affected: 243
TC Recall #: 2001265
Manufacturer:
Campaign Code: HJ71

Recall Details

Certain passenger vehicles. During the assembly process, the air cleaner box cover may have been damaged, and a broken plastic piece could travel into the intake chamber. If the plastic piece lodges in the throttle body, the throttle could stick in a partially open position. Although the driver can always stop the car by applying additional brake force, or by taking other actions (i.e., shift into neutral, turn off the ignition key, etc.), if the car continues to maintain speed when the driver is expecting it to slow, a crash could occur. Correction: Dealers will inspect the air cleaner box for damage. If damage is found, the dealer will locate and remove the broken plastic piece, and replace the air cleaner box lid.

An alarm siren... hmm 4" max? How would it fit through the intake/filter opening?

Or are you being sarcastic?

well i know honda wont do that massive recall cuz if they do then they will lose so much money from it

i guess if they are smart then they would put better front struts and rear shocks in the first place to save all the trouble, complains from us
