Honda White Paint Peeling Class Action Lawsuit: What You Need to Know
Are you a Honda owner with a white painted vehicle? You might be interested to know that a recent class action lawsuit alleges that some Honda white paint codes are causing problems like peeling, bubbling, and flaking.
The lawsuit, which includes certain models from 2013 to the present, highlights paint codes such as NH-603P for Acura MDX and Honda Odyssey, NH-578 for Honda Pilot, and NH-788P for Honda Fit and HR-V.
According to the plaintiffs in the lawsuit, this defect in the paint is not due to any external factors but was present from the time the vehicles were built. They argue that Honda failed to disclose these issues to them at the time of purchase, making them ineligible for traditional statute of limitations.
The lawsuit also mentions that Honda has released technical service bulletins and warranty extensions related to peeling paint problems in these vehicles. For example, TSB B19-029, TSB A19-055, and TSB A19-064 directly address some of the issues.
Individuals like Jim Clemmens, Terri Hernandez, and Marie Toussaint have taken legal action by filing this class action lawsuit against American Honda Motor Company, Inc. in the U.S. District Court for the Central District of California. They are represented by Keller Fishback & Jackson LLP and Squitieri & Fearon LLP.
