If you get your recall done be prepared to wait.

Not sure if you financed or not but American Honda paid for my rental....they even called to set up the recall appointment.

I think the dealership screwed up on mine...going back this afternoon.

The gears seem to hang and the indicator on the dash that tells you what gear you are on is now missing.

Honda Corporate went as far as to call me at my work on the work line. I expressed my concerns about the repair and said I will wait until I get a check engine light to avoid headaches and also don’t want to be the dealers guinea pig. She asked if she can call me back in 2 weeks and said she won’t give up until my name is off her list.

What a pain in the a$$!!!!!

D’ Andrea..

Every time a dealer touches my car there is always a scuff, scratch, grease stain, broken clamps, missing bolts etc. I am ocd to say the least but will avoid this headache as long as possible.

Most dealers have a driver that can take you home if within so many miles

Update. American Honda called me to confirm my "Product Update" appointment tomorrow morning. I let them know I was having issues finding a ride back to work, all my Execs are out of town right now, and she asked if I would like a Loaner Car tomorrow. Now when I've asked before they didn't have one and I am too far for a ride. Now, I get that loaner cars are probably reserved for those who are coming in for Warranty or Product Updates and since this was the case the dealership is lending me a car tomorrow.

Cliff Notes: American Honda and Space Coast Honda came thru with a Loaner Car for me tomorrow.

My service adviser originally said it would take half the day on a Saturday. I get a call in the afternoon saying they'll need it until Monday and to come pick up a loaner. Just a heads up.

Honda called me agin about getting the recall done on my CTR. I told them my commuter 18 SI has a oil leak and I scheduled a appt to get it diagnosed and repaired and if the dealer does ok I’ll think about having my CTR recall done.

I dread dealer visits and repairs!!

My June build 2018 has the updated harness, for whatever that's worth

Thanks.
Just curious, do you have any issues with your transmission?

I get occasional notchy gear changes but no lockouts and no grinding that wasn't my own fault being lazy on the clutch. The two grinding instances I can recall were when I was just putting around and it was a 2-3 shift, not 1-2 and in this car you do need to be a little more deliberate with shifts whereas in my TL, I can be lazy as hell and it'll still go in, yet ironically that transmission will fight me on 1-2 upshifts once every 1000 shifts. Very rare, but it happens. So far, no such issues with 1-2 in the CTR. I am also of the mind that winding out 1st in the CTR is pretty much pointless - short shift it at 6k and get to 2nd in a good powerband, then wind out 2nd, 3rd, and 4th if you have the room

Yeah but now if something tears up. They have it on record you refused a recall repair. If something fails related to that they could always say well we contacted you you knew about it and refused the repair. Why wait and chance a greater problem or damage to the engine? Mines been done and everything is fine. My dealer this was thier only type R recall as well and they did fine.
