Your new Honda is covered by comprehensive warranty protection against any unforeseen issue with the labor or parts used in its manufacture. As your Honda dealer, we want to tell you more about some of the protection you enjoy under the 2024 Honda warranty.

New Vehicle Limited Warranty

This warranty covers the majority of your Honda's systems and components, except covered by the other warranties below. Any issue with the labor or materials used to build your Honda will be promptly repaired by any dealer using Honda-trained technicians and only Honda-approved replacement parts. The replacement parts and work performed are covered by the remaining warranty period.

Warranty coverage does not apply to certain situations, including damage caused by using non-approved parts, accidental damage, or damage due to lack of maintenance. Excluded situations are explained in more detail in your warranty handbook. Warranty coverage applies for the first three years or 36,000 miles, whichever comes first. Some systems and components, like the ones below, have a different coverage period.

Wheel Balancing and Alignment

Any repairs or adjustments needed for wheel balance or alignment are provided at no cost for the first year or 12,000 miles.

AC Refrigerant

Recharging your refrigerant is free for the first two years or 24,000 miles. If the recharging is required as part of a warranty repair, it's covered for the original warranty period of three years or 36,000 miles.

Wiper Blade Inserts

The original wiper blades are covered for the first six months and have unlimited mileage.

Powertrain Limited Warranty

The powertrain includes the engine, transmission and transaxle and FWD or RWD drive systems. All components in these systems are protected except those items which are specifically excluded. Excluded items are listed in your warranty handbook. This warranty applies for five years or 60,000 miles.

Seat Belt Limited Warranty

Your seat belts and their control systems are protected against defects for fifteen years or 150,000 miles.

Rust Perforation Limited Warranty

Rust is dangerous to any unprotected metal and can rapidly reduce a metal object to a hollow shell. The metal panels used to build your Honda are treated against rust by specialized coatings applied during manufacture. These coatings don't require reapplication and will protect them against perforation damage. Perforation is defined as rust that forms a hole through a metal panel from one side to the other.

If perforation occurs despite these protective coatings, the affected panel will be replaced at no charge. This warranty applies for the first five years with no mileage limitation.

These are just some of the highlights of your warranty protection. If you'd like to know more, contact us today at Coeur d'Alene Honda in Coeur d'Alene, ID.

We're in a position to do this in the way that no private buyer can. Private buyers are looking for a steal: they are actually less likely to give you the full market value of your car.

You don't have to worry about a private buyer initially agreeing to your price, then showing up and trying to bargain you down by several thousand dollars.

You have to be very careful that the transaction itself is done in such a way that you don't get scammed and lose the car only to find that the payment doesn't go through. When you trade your vehicle in at the dealership, once you finish the transaction, it's all over. You have the payment in hand, no strangers go to your house, and there's no chance the dealership is going to come back later unhappy and demanding a refund. Everything In One Place Once you trade in your Honda at the dealership, you can immediately apply the value of that trade-in to a new vehicle.

3 Advanced Safety Features in the 2025 Honda Lineup

Honda Sensing is a suite of advanced safety features designed to protect you and your passengers. They utilize radar, sonar, and other advanced technologies to warn you of potential dangers, allowing you to respond and avoid an accident. As your Honda dealership, we want to tell you how some of these systems work. more Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) This system uses radar and a forward-facing camera to monitor the vehicle in front of you. The radar measures the distance from your front bumper to the rear bumper of the vehicle ahead. The distance is then compared to your current speed to determine if there's a danger of collision. If the system determines the distance is closing too fast, for example, the car ahead slows down, you'll receive visual and audio warnings to slow down. Sometimes, a vehicle ahead may brake suddenly, and you're unable to react quickly enough to hit the brakes. In this situation, CMBS automatically applies hard braking to bring your Honda to an almost instant stop. Automatic braking can prevent an accident or reduce the damage caused. Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) This feature helps keep you safe by positioning your Honda in the center of its lane. It uses a camera located in front of the rear-view mirror to identify the lane line markings. Once identified, LKAS will automatically warn you if your vehicle drifts toward either lane boundary. You'll hear warning beeps, and a warning icon will appear on your screen to alert you if you're about to leave your present lane and aren't actively steering. If your Honda continues to move toward the lines, LKAS gently tugs your steering wheel to guide the wheels back into the lane. LKAS can't steer your vehicle, so it will provide additional visual and audio alerts to warn you that you need to continue steering. Road Departure Mitigation (RDM) The RDM system helps prevent your vehicle from leaving the road. Like the LKAS system above, it also uses a specialized camera. The RDM camera detects the solid lines that identify road borders. If this system detects you're about to leave the road, it applies steering torque to guide you back into your lane. It also provides audio and visual warnings to alert you to the danger. If your Honda is about to leave the road, RDM applies the brakes to stop your vehicle and prevent an accident. RDM temporarily deactivates if your direction indicator is on or you're actively steering. If you'd like to know more about these or any of the other advanced Honda driver assistance features, contact us today at Coeur d'Alene Honda in Coeur d'Alene, ID

5 Benefits of Leasing a 2025 Honda

If you know you want a new Honda but aren't quite committed enough to buy one, leasing may be the ideal choice for you. Leasing offer unique benefits that can't be obtained through traditional car ownership, and is particularly advantageous for those who like to upgrade their vehicle every few years. Let's explore several leasing benefits that are available to you through your local Honda dealership. more 1. No Long-Term Commitments Who doesn't love the feeling of a brand-new ride? If you're someone who gets excited about the new models that get released every year and wishes you could drive them all, leasing was made for you. Lease terms typically only last 2–3 years, so you can regularly test out different vehicles and take advantage of the latest and greatest vehicle technology and capability. 2. Lower Cost of Ownership Leasing your 2025 Honda results in a lower cost of ownership compared to traditional financing because your lease payments only cover the vehicle's depreciation, not the full purchase price. Not only are your monthly expenses more manageable, but a lease usually has lower up-front payments too, with little to no down payment. That's a win-win for affordability! 3. Lower Risk As Honda's New Vehicle Limited Warranty lasts for 3 years or 36,000 miles and the Powertrain Limited Warranty lasts for 5 years or 60,000 miles, your leased vehicle is almost always covered under the manufacturer warranty. This provides peace of mind that should anything go wrong due to how the car was made or assembled, you're fully covered for the repairs. And if you've opted for a prepaid maintenance plan, your regular servicing is covered too. 4. No Re-Sale Worries Selling a car is a major hassle, from dealing with prospective buyers to negotiating a price to handling the paperwork. Although a trade-in provides a simpler method of getting rid of it, the reality is that depreciation still takes a toll on its value. When you lease a new vehicle and return it at the end of your term, depreciation is our concern, not yours. All you have to do is select what vehicle you want next, sign your new contract, and drive away. 5. Tax Benefits An often-overlooked benefit of leasing is its potential for tax deductions. If you plan to use your 2025 Honda for business purposes, a lease can offer you greater tax deductions than a loan. This makes leasing an even more cost-effective choice for professionals who need a reliable vehicle for work. Whether it's the lower costs, warranty coverage, hassle-free process, or tax advantages, it's hard to overstate the benefits of leasing your 2025 Honda.
