I have a 2016 Touring Coupe and have had no issues with the car.

I've had my touring for over a year and have experienced no problems as well...

How are your rain sensing wipers behaving?
They didn’t work that well the first few weeks I owned the car, but they’ve worked pretty well since then.

I thought as much :D

Mine is still too sensitive under light drizzles, but otherwise the rain sensor works pretty well.

Put in by people who do it all day, every day, using all manner of special tooling and mechanical assists, and using lots of hardware that is really only designed for quick and easy assembly and not really designed to ever come back out. I couldn't count the number of times I've gotten a car back from warranty work with missing or broken trim clips.
Car parts are 100% designed to be removed and reinstalled. No debate

Thanks OP, for never updating the thread with a resolution.
Don't ya hate that!
Makes me think he may have sold it, he was pretty paranoid that he'd have problems since he thought the dealer would tear it apart.

why is always a Touring involved in the "problem" threads?
This question, asked more than one year ago, needs to be answered too.

It's like with people and medicine. If you had your legs amputated as a child, you would never have to worry about so many problems and save money on orthopedic doctors. You will newer get sweaty feet or flat foot, no knee replacements, broken bones when skiing, and you would also save on pants, shoes, and socks.

Shoot your eyes out and you will save yourself from wearing glasses or contacts, cataracts, and so many other expensive eye problems and diseases as you get older.

My LX sedan has been perfect for 37K miles.

My only complaint is the engine is a bit noisy when accelerating briskly.

I'm not sure if this engine has vibration reducing balancer shafts. The engine mounts appear to be more exotic than those on my earlier Hondas. I wonder if they scrapped the balancers for rubberized/liquid filled mounts?

My 1.3 L in-line four bike engine has two balancer shafts. Surely this Honda car engine has them too. Of course my bike engine is bolted solidly to the frame with no vibration absorbing mounts.
