Honda and Phone Sex

Original Link



LEFT LANE AUTO NEWS - - Honda this week said it misprinted a toll-free auto-safety phone number in 1.2 million car manuals for the 2006 model year. Instead of an '888' prefix, Honda printed an '800.' And customers who attempted to use the phone number didn't get just any service. They were greeted by a phone sex line — "for live one-on-one talk with a hot fantasy girl." In a letter to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, Honda said it would send postcards to owners and dealers with the correction.

The girls on the other end must have been pretty confused as well.

LMAO Way to go Honda, always going the extra mile for their customers. That is truly 'service' after the sale!
