Honda and Acura – White Paint Defects – Quebec Class Action

Date of Initial Application: August 6, 2026

LEX GROUP Inc. has launched a class action lawsuit against HONDA (including ACURA) (hereinafter collectively “HONDA”), on behalf of all persons in Quebec who purchased, leased and/or owned a white-painted Honda or Acura vehicle, in all model years from 2013 to the present, including:

• Acura MDX;
• Honda Civic;
• Honda CR-V;
• Honda Fit;
• Honda HR-V;
• Honda Odyssey;
• Honda Pilot;
• Honda Accord;

(which was painted with one of the following colors (and corresponding paint codes): White Diamond Pearl (NH-603P); Taffeta White (NH-578); White Orchid Pearl / Bellanova White (NH-788P); and Platinum White Pearl (NH-883P))

(hereinafter collectively the “Subject Vehicles”).

The proposed class action alleges that HONDA marketed, promoted, distributed, leased, and sold to Class Members the Subject Vehicles, which were defective in design and manufacture; specifically, that the Subject Vehicles all suffer from a Paint Defect causing peeling, delamination, blistering, and/or premature and inevitable deterioration of the factory-applied white exterior paint coating, during the normal, reasonably foreseeable useful life of the Subject Vehicles.  HONDA has not issued a recall for the affected vehicles in Canada and has, to date, failed to adequately correct the Paint Defect.

Accordingly, if you reside in Québec and have purchased and/or leased and/or own a Subject Vehicle painted in white (2013 to present), then you may be part of the proposed Class defined by the class action initiated by our office.  Should you be defined as a member of the class, you may be entitled to compensation should the Court authorize and ultimately grant the class action on the merits, or should a settlement be reached (and approved by the Court).
