FRONT BALANCER SHAFT SEAL HAS A FAILURE THAT CAUSE THE OIL TO LEAK ONTO THE ENGINE.*AK

I RECENTLY WAS A VICTIM OF A HONDA RECALL ON FRONT BALANCER SHAFT SEAL, WHICH CAUSES OIL TO BE RAPIDLY PUMPED OUT ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING, CAUSING SERIOUS ENGINE DAMAGE. I TOOK MY CAR TO EMPIRE HONDA IN DENVER,CO (303)-399-8443. AT EMPIRE HONDA THEY ADMITTED IT WAS THE HONDA RECALL THAT CAUSED ME TO ALMOST WRECK ON THE HIGHWAY. THEY STATED THAT IT WAS COVERED UNDER THE HONDA RECALL AND THEY STARTED TO MAKE REPAIRS. WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THAT I NEEDED A NEW ENGINE, THEY STATED THEY WOULD ONLY COVER 1/3 OF THE COST. WHICH IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE, BECAUSE PROBLEM NEVER WOULD HAVE OCCURRED IF IT WERE NOT FOR THE "DEFECT" IN HONDA CARS. I HAVE THE PAPERS ON THE HONDA RECALL THAT STATES HONDA IS SUPPOST TO REPLACE MY ENGINE AT NO COST (FRONT BALANCER SHAFT OIL SEAL REPLACEMENT PG. 5 "D"). I KNOW YOU HAVE ACCESS TO THESE PAPERS PLEASE LOOK AT THEM, SO YOU CAN SEE THAT I AM CORRECT. HONDA IS TRYING TO WEASEL THEIR WAY OUT OF TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE "DEFECTS" IN HONDA CARS. IF THERE IS ANY INFORMATION OR HELP THAT WOULD HELP ME IN MY FIGHT AGAINST HONDA TO MAKE THEM TAKE RESPONSIBILTY FOR THEIR DEFECTS, PLEASE CONTACT ME (303)-458-6314. IF THERE IS ANYBODY THAT CAN MAKE HONDA TAKE RESPONSIBILITY IT IS THE NHTSA.*AK
