Is it possibleto change the color for the instrument lighting and the radio? :?: Have a SOP and would like to have an orange tint to the backlighting of the instruments and radio if possible.

I was talking to the service manager at my Honda Dealer about this, he tells me that Honda has been receiving a hugh number of complaints about the lighting and readability of the Element dash, especially in day light.

According to him, Honda is going to be doingf something about it. I wanted to replace dash instrumentation and he told me to wait.

Lets hope Honda does something for us.

Is there some place on the Honda website where we can voice a complaint or monitor the progress of this issue? Nothing would make me happier than to see them address this problem.

Honda might make changes based on the complaints to future models.
but they won't recall and make a change to everyones already owned vehicles unless it is safety related or court mandated.

You can think a big "NOT" is in order.

I have a terrible time reading the speedometer during the day. So much in fact that I find myself staring at it too long and not at traffic. I don't know if this is a safety issue with the E or with me :lol:

If you go to the Honda website, you will find this page:

http://www.hondacars.com/info/customer_relations.asp

It provides you with a phone/fax/mail option to send your complaint to Honda.

I complained about the poor instrument design. They called me back. They were nice, but didn't do much more than register my complaint.

But I suspect if enough of us say (as I did) that whether we buy another Honda or not will be determined by their ultimate response to our compaint, they may do something.

PS I just received a survey form asking how satisfied I was in dealing with Honda Customer Relations. So I've had two opportunities to complain.
