The contact owns a 2004 Honda Accord. The contact stated that after six months, his legs would become numb and he felt pain while driving the vehicle. The dealer was notified of the issue, but did not assist. The contact bought a therapeutic pillow for the driver's seat, which resolved the pain. He also stated that there was no tint on the windshield to block the sunlight. The current and failure mileages were 36,000.
There is a defect in the windshield that makes objects appear distorted. The dealership had ordered 4 windshields from the factory, all had the same distortion. The manufacturer indicated no further action could be taken. The consumer will have to drive with the defective windshield.
