Angry Secret problems?

http://www.lemonaidcars.com/secret_warranties.htm

1995 Accord V6, Acura NSX, Acura 2.5 TL; all 1996–97 Hondas and Acuras, except for the Acura Integra Type R and the Isuzu-built Acura and Honda Passport. Problem: Engine malfunctions cause emissions to exceed the federal norm. Warranty coverage: In a settlement with the Environmental Protection Agency, Honda extended its emissions warranty to 14 years or 150,000 miles. The automaker has agreed to the EPA's demand that it provide a full engine check and emissions-related repairs at 50,000 to 75,000 miles and give free tune-ups at 75,000 to 150,000 miles. This means that costly engine components and exhaust system parts like catalytic converters will be replaced free of charge. It is estimated the free check-ups, repairs, and tuneups will cost Honda over $250 million. The story of the settlement was first reported on page 6 of the June 15, 1998 edition of Automotive News.

Judging by Honda's past actions in denying its responsibility for these kinds of problems, don't hesitate to complain to the EPA if you encounter a scintilla of evidence that the company won't keep its promise

...not sure the accuracy of this site...pretty interesting though
