Burn is not only Mazda

Hello everyone! I want to share his experiences and warn the reader. Here is his post from the forum Hondovodov. Will 5 photos and little letters.

So, especially rassusolivat will not. I lay out the history of correspondence.

I write them:

President of "Honda Motor Rus»
Kazuhiko Kato
Cc: General Director of "PPT-Ozerki»
Shapovalov NO
from the consumer ...............,
residing at:
St. Petersburg, ...
Application for car repairs
(complain)
May 21, 2009 I, ............................, in a showroom of "PPT-Ponds" is the official dealer of Honda, was Honda Pilot car purchased at the price 1`390 thousand rubles (one million three hundred and ninety thousand). [next]
Body number 111111111111111111,
Engine №11111111111111111111,
The warranty period of a vehicle: 3 years or 100 000 km.
Odometer reading at the time of application - 17900 km.
Recommendations plant contained in "Owner's Manual", are respected.

In the night from 28.07 to 29.07.09, at the wheel of the vehicle being at the Honda Pilot, I felt the smell of burning electrical insulation emanating from under the front panel of the console. Pulling the plug GPS-navigator from the cigarette lighter outlet, I found flaring up under the front console panel flames. By a happy coincidence, and my thanks to decisive action, not only managed on time and in good health to evacuate the family, but also to localize fires, rescue vehicle.
Specialists nearest authorized dealer center Honda Zaporozhye were checked the integrity and functionality of the electrical circuits are isolated and the ends of burning wires.
At the time of the fire in the cigarette lighter socket via a standard connector and a standard power cord included car GPS-navigator Garmin 2W.
Why there was a heating wire, and why at that moment did not work the system to protect the electrical circuit, ie, no fuse is blown, I find it difficult to answer.
Notably, if congestion occurs in the electrical circuit, wires are heated in situ joints, or joints in the thinnest place. In this case, the heating wires occurred in the middle of each of the two wires.
As a result, fire oplavilis cigarette lighter power supply wire and was melt front console panel of the car.
On the basis of Articles 18 and 20 of the Law "On protection of consumers' demand
free to eliminate the above drawbacks, namely to restore electrical power outlet cigarette lighter, replace the fused panels and recover the car.
If originated with my car Honda Pilot freelance situation is unique, and not repeated on other cars, then it falls under the definition of "guarantee product quality" and in accordance with the warranty of its implications must be eliminated free of charge. If the company "Honda Motor Rus" considered the fire of Honda as a situation of default and do not deserve attention, it is my civic duty, as my opportunity to warn owners of Honda about the potential dangers of fire in any place and at any time, since the vast majority of owners Car Honda, as well as I include GPS-navigator in the cigarette lighter socket.
I'm sorry about what happened.
Looking forward to a long and fruitful collaboration.
