1 Automatic Transmission Control Module problem

Failure Date: 12/01/2022

I was commuting to work when my engine experienced catastrophic failure and was stuck on the interstate. Prior to this, the engine was making audible "ticking" sounds which are indicative of rod bearing failure. This happens from poorly lubricated parts and is a direct result of Honda of America requiring 0w-20 oil in its direct injected earth dreams motors. These earth dream engines have had a proven reputation for having oil dilution problems that cause catastrophic engine failure since 2016. Other subsidiaries of Honda around the world recommend 5w-30 oil, or thicker oil, in the same exact motors. It's because of this that Honda of America receives the most complaints for catastrophic engine failure for its 1. 5l earth dreams motors. My warranty got denied because Honda determined that the cause of failure was due to a modified engine control unit. The problem is that Honda would not look into or rule out other causes of failure and instead put liability for repairs on me the consumer. They would not take apart the engine for examination and instead just performed a visual inspection and a scan of the engine's power control module. Furthmore, Honda of America would not disclose any technical information to me that proved any modifications made to the car caused the problem. In other words, they would not release information to me that they had on a vehicle I own. All that was discovered from their pcm scan was that it was modified. Since Honda of America and it's dealerships are the only authorities that govern their warranty claims, they will not let me dispute their decision. Because Honda of America refused to perform a proper root cause analysis with their warranty claims, it tampers with the integrity of the entire maintenance data documentation system. In other words, Honda technicians will never be able to recognize a common product issue if Honda of America continues to put liability and blame on the customer for any non disputable reason they claim.
