- Honda extends warranty on r18 block effective aug 17th. - I've been looking at carcomplaints for a while, as i own this model civic but have had no problems. But this guy said he's a master tech and honda recently extended their warranty to 8 years from orig. purchase date. site has the bulletin number posted, but it's only for honda techs. still it might help for all of you to call honda about reimbursements!

Engine blocks should not fail for so many vehicles. This should have been a Honda covered repair based on a product defect. The over heating occurred while I was commuting to work some 70 miles from home. Took it to the dealer near work. They were great, the problem was covered by by extended warranty and they gave me a 2009 civic to use as a loaner while they made the repair. We've had extended warranties for almost every car we've had for 20 years, except for a $1000 covered repair on an older Subaru, this is the first time one has kicked in to cover a big repair. I'd continue to get extended warranties because I really don't trust the car manufacturers to come clean on defects.
