antifreeze leak from thermostat housings assemby

Engine Overhead due to antifreeze leak on the thermostat housing. Engine had to be replaced.

This thermostat housing is made of plastic/fiberglass, water/antifreeze pressure runs through it causes wear to it and makes holes, hard to detect when the car is not running. Once the cooling system is hot, the antifreeze just drains causing your engine to overhead. Honda should have a recall on this!
