I don’t think Honda will suddenly have excess inventory over this. 

This does not seem like a big deal. I guess some of it depends on how long it took for Honda to inform the workers.

Fucking lame. They messed up. Own it. The bad PR will likely cost them a lot more in the end.

Sorry, long-winded ahead.

Well, this article was shit. Thanks for writing it for him, fellow Jalop commenters!

Yes, MB didn’t let them tune the performance of the motors at all so all they did was lower the suspension.

Nobody said anything about the cyclist getting a pass.  The other guy being at fault doesn’t give you the right to hit-and-run.

I just gotta ask:  Why isn’t this lady’s picture plastered all over these articles?

When you hit someone with your car, you fucking stop and at the very least see if they’re ok. Regardless of who’s at fault.

Get the recalls done people. Your odds of dying, though small, are much better [worse?] than winning the Mega Millions or PowerBall.

I am gonna say the same reason why an “overland ready” aka mall rated Jeep Wrangler has such a low tow rating over a stock one.
The lift and softer set suspension does hell on load control.

Update: I was mistaken on this, and I’ve fixed the article to make it clear.

Gotta give credit to the comment section: you folks discovered two errors I’ve now corrected:

You are stuck thinking in the past when a 4 cylinder motor made no power and was saved for economy cars. Modern 4 cylinders with turbos exceed the power of yesteryears V8s. My old 4.6 Ford made like 210hp and 280 ftlb of torque.

Guess what? You are likely to see more and more of this. Us rapidly aging late Boomer/Gen X people realize that we are not going to see our Social Security payments - you know, the ones we have paid in on for 40 years - and our 401Ks are not going to help us much when the economy finally tanks. This becomes a no lose…

As an FYI to anyone who may not already know and want to take a helicopter one day.

The thing is - he ran into a moving tail rotor. It doesn’t matter why, it doesn’t matter how cautious and wary a person he was. He walked into his own demise. It’s a tragic incident and I don’t blame people for looking for...something. blame, anger, etc.
