Body problems of the 2010 Honda Insight

When the vehicle was recently brought in for annual PA state inspection, I was informed by the inspector that there was so much corrosion where the rear trailing arms attach to the subframe that the rear wheel on either side could suddenly collapse leading to a sudden and unpredictable loss of vehicle control. I then brought it to an authorized Honda dealership for their inspection. They produced a short video confirming that the car was unsafe to drive. Still shots from their inspection video are included with this complaint. I then consulted with a well-regarded body shop who confirmed that the car was unsafe to drive and that it probably could not be repaired. I believe that the 2010 Honda Insight rear subframe is very similar to the 2010 Honda cr v rear subframe which was recently recalled for exactly the same issue: part 573 safety recall report 23v-228.

Both sides of the car have rust. The similar issue happen to the Honda crv's 2007 through 2011 model, which have a recall already.

Unknown. Rear frame on both sides are extremely rusted. Car purchased in ohio in 2009 and appears the salt as eroded the car.

Corrosion of the body at the rear when exposed to normal driving conditions. The issue was validated by service center.

Rust at the body below rear door.

My complaint is about my car I had an accident on September 26, 2018, in binghamton NY. My airbag was deployed, the seatbelt was damage, and also the front bumper. After I had the accident I received a recall paper and when I verified the number I found I had a recall. I called and talked to them, I also send the first complaint. They sent me an application I filled it out and sent it back. When I call they said to me they still working on it. I recently received another recall paper I called just to be inform about everything.

Window door moldings made aout of rubber are britle and desintegrating making the window loose therefore making the interior of the vehicle noisy. Apparently the quality of this rubber are very cheap it does not last more than three years. By the way it cut one of my fingers when I was cleaning the window. I told a Honda dealer service advisor about this, and she kindly told me that she doesnt know why all Hondas do these. . . . . Well, 'it's because Honda is using cheap materials," I told her. If you are going through the same situation as me, please file a complaint.

The contact owns a 2010 Honda Insight. While driving approximately 70 mph, the exterior rubber trim detached from the vehicle and onto the highway. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the problem. The approximate failure mileage was 22,000.

There is obviously an issue with the paint used by Honda. Our other car - a Toyota - which is 3 years older and same color kept in same conditions is looking just fine - however the paint on our Honda's roof and hood has disintegrated. It looks awful. When picking up my car after a tire rotation at costco - a gentleman recommended I contact Honda. I did. They basically said - OH well, too bad. We'll make a note of it in case something comes up.

When I originally purchased my Insight, I noticed that the weather stripping was folding up. I had the dealership replace it, and within 2 days, the weather stripping flew off as I was driving down the highway. I went back to the dealership, and they replaced it again. 3 months later, same thing happened. The weather stripping, came off as I was driving causing a traffic hazard. This time I went to a different dealership, and their solution was to put double sided tape on the weather stripping. Its now been 2 weeks, and the ends of the stripping is coming up again.
