Alleged defects in white paint causing peeling, blistering, and premature corrosion on Honda and Acura vehicles in Quebec.

A class action lawsuit has been filed in the Superior Court of Quebec against Honda and Acura, alleging a defect in their white pearlescent or metallic paints causes premature peeling, blistering, and delamination. The suit claims this defect not only affects the vehicles' appearance but also exposes the bodywork to rust and corrosion, impacting function, safety, and value. The lawsuit covers Honda and Acura vehicles from model years 2013 to 2026, purchased or leased in Quebec, in specific white paint colors. The Lex Group law firm is leading the case, seeking compensation for repair costs, emotional distress, and punitive damages. This follows previous class-action lawsuits against Honda for similar paint issues in Canada and the US.

• Owners or lessees of Honda or Acura vehicles purchased or leased in Quebec.
• Vehicles must be from model years 2013 to 2026.
• Vehicles must be in specific white paint colors: White Diamond Pearl, Taffeta White, White Orchid Pearl/Bellanova White, or Platinum White Pearl.
