production date of the car

PTR · 5th November 2006, 20:12

I would have an idea:
Under every persons nickname it would be very very good to see when his/her car was produced (year+month)
Because than we could see if a specific problem belongs to only to the eralier models or it is the problem of the brand new cars also.
We could than (probably better) follow how Honda is making small changes at the newer cars to remove the bugs, known faults.
I really hope they do something!

I was just thinking about it, if there is an official solution for example the HFT case or I could mention other problems known by Honda.
Will the cars be immediately produced with the solution in a different way?
Can we hope that a car wich was produced in 2006 Dec will have less faults as a car produced a year earlier...??

How do you know the production date via the VIN?

Exactly!!

It would be good to see at the others also!

(production date [month+year] or date when you got the car.. there should have been a only few weeks delay..)

Let you guys in on a secret,
Check the label on the seatbelt, there is the production date of the car.
month and year.
It is not the production date of the belt.

PTR · 6th November 2006, 22:51

seatbelt?

I belive you but how do you know that?
How come is it not the prod.date of the belt?
(It should be probably very close to the prod.date of the car...)

Means that the left side of my car was produced 9 days later than the right side
