CR-V fires: Lawsuit impending
Now THIS, unlike incorrect horsepower, is worth suing over.

The Complaint alleges that due to a design defect relating to the vehicles' O-Ring gaskets, oil leaks onto the vehicles' hot exhaust systems, rapidly igniting, and causing the CR-Vs model years 2003 and 2004 to burst into flames. In many instances, the vehicles have been totally destroyed. American Honda has neither issued a recall nor warned consumers of this defect. [surprise, surprise]
The Complaint further alleges that defendant American Honda, as a result of the sale of the defective CRV-s model years 2003 and 2004, has violated and continues to violate, among other statutes, the California Legal Remedies Act, and the Song-Beverly Consumer Warranty Act. The complaint seeks certain relief including actual and punitive damages, restitution, and equitable relief, including the replacement and/or recall of all CR-Vs model years 2003 and 2004.
