My Honda radiator top tank cracked comming home from work, and left me stranded. I have a 95 Honda Civic. The same thing happened to my son's Honda Prelude. The radiators are made out of plastic and will not take the heat. The tow truck driver said I was the fourth person he knew about in two weeks to have the same thing happen.

My son had close to $600 damage in parts alone. I don't know what the cost to me will be untill I get a radiator and start the car up to see if there is any motor damage. Honda wants $287 for another plastic radiator. Kregon Auto Parts have sold so many of them recently they dont have any more in their warehouse statewide. Why does Honda not fix the problem?
