You wrote this with a lot of heart, I made the same mistake on my 2016 ex, you made me feel much less foolish. Thank you !No need to get too concerned at this point, even if I were to call and find out mine was included in the recall, there is nothing that can be done at this time to resolve it. I admit that I'm a bit disappointed being that this is my first Honda, and I expected quality than my past GM vehicles, but no use getting worked up over it.
This is the second time in a row that I've bought the first model year/redesign (Both different GM brands) and having had similar experiences I'm not TOO surprised. You'd think I would have learned by now, but being an 'early adopter' does have its merits. It is nice not only because you are one of the first to have something not many others have, but you also get to drive a vehicle that looks like the newest model for much longer. Our current 2016 Civics will look like the 2017, 2018 giving the appearance that you're driving one of those newer ones, while if I had bought the 2015 early to mid year last year and suddenly this beautifully redesigned model comes out in late 2015, I'd be kicking myself for having a brand new outdated looking model. Silly, right?
Anyway, buying the latest and 'greatest' of anything is always a bit of a gamble no matter what it is, or who the manufacturer is. Perhaps on my next purchase I will wait 6 months to a year after release before diving in, just to allow them to iron out the kinks and bugs (or maybe not).
