Re: steering rack problem
 

If you really think Honda should pay for this then you should contact
your regional Honda Office and ask for some consideration. The number
should be in your owners manual.

My 1984 Accord had a leaky steering rack. Honda fixed it once then I
was on my own when it started leaking again. In the end, I just let it
leak and added some fluid every now and then. Glad to see that Honda is
finally going to electric steering.
