    I have responded to honda's requests for information re: i no longer own my vehicle at least four times! I provided trade in info in 2008 when i purchased a new car. Why haven't they recorded the information i provided? I feel honda is not acting in the best interest of the public when i see they don't record information such as i've provided numerous times.
