Our new 2005 honda civic had both front wheels lock while my wife was going to work, driving down the freeway in fort worth tx. The car was totaled, crashing into a guard rail, blowing the air bags, spinning around, starting a fire at the left front wheel and starting my wife's coat on fire as she was getting out.
We have an eye witness who has a degree in engineering, photos, a police report and the car itself.The car started to pull to the right by itself and my wife was not able to correct it since the front wheels were in a complete skid.
The car had only 2113 miles on it and even the police commented that in her twelve years on the force she had never seen anything so strange as this. There are two solid black lines that show where the skid started in the center of the lane ending at the guardrail. Both tires are torn up and melted in one spot. The roads were dry, no traffic, nothing in the road. 'The transmission just locked up' solid, causing a near fatal accident,ijurining my wife
i contacted the honda corporation @ 800-999-1009 and the dealer bankston honda of lewisville tx @ 866-507-6355. Honda said it was an insurance problem, bankston referred me back to honda. Finally honda said they would come out and take pictures 'only' car would not be moved. The day they were to come out and take picture they said 'due to safety reasons the car needed to be taken to bankston honda to take pictures, breaking our verbal agreement.
We hide the car and are seeking legal means as our insurance is having to payout due to a defect. I have a case at honda # n012005-12-1600787. The witness was directly behind and witnessed the whole scene. No one will talk to us or help us. 'They won't even give us our title'. We bought the car in august of 2005 'with cash' and it's now 5-8-06 still no title!
