Introduction 3

The purpose of NCDS is to resolvedisputes between vehiclemanufacturers and their customers.NCDS's decision makers areimpartial third parties who will listento both the customer and themanufacturer and decide what canbe done to resolve the disagreement.

NCDS's decision is not binding onyou unless you agree to accept it. Ifyou accept the decision, Honda willabide by it. Generally, disputessubmitted to NCDS are resolvedwithin 40 days (47 days if you havenot first contacted Honda about yourcomplaint).

Honda offers you the opportunity tomediate and arbitrate a disagreementthrough NCDS because we want youto feel that you have been treatedfairly.

Eligibility is limited by yourvehicle's age, mileage, and otherfactors. In order to file a claim, youneed to provide your name andaddress, the Vehicle IdentificationNumber (VIN) of your vehicle, anda brief statement outlining thedisagreement. Initially, NCDS maytry to resolve the disagreementthrough mediation.

Some states require you to notify themanufacturer about the problem(s),and some states give the manufacturer,or its representative, a chance tocorrect the problem(s).
