SUSPENSION
TOLD BY DEALER THAT FRONT CONTROL ARM BUSHINGS WERE TORN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT $550.00. RESEARCHING ON INTERNET HAS REVEALED THAT THERE IS A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH "COMPLIANCE BUSHINGS" ON THESE CARS. CONTACTED HONDA CASE #[XXX]. THEY SAID THERE IS NO RECALL. I BELIEVE THEY ARE IGNORING A PROBLEM THAT COULD AFFECT STEERING AND THEY SHOULD BE FORCED TO REPAIR THIS DEFECT. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE DRIVING TO WORK, THE ENGINE SUDDENLY CUT OFF WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK THE CAR TO THE NEAREST AUTOZONE AND HAD A DIAGNOSTIC REPORT DONE. REPORT CAME BACK SAYING FUEL SCREEN IS JAMMED. ON THE WAY HOME FROM WORK, THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WENT OFF. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR THE NEXT MORNING THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT AGAIN CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY WENT TO A AUTO SERVICE REPAIR PLACE AND THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. IT CAME BACK SAYING FUEL SCREEN IS JAMMED. THE MECHANIC STATED THAT IT JUST NEEDS TO BE CLEANED . I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE NEXT DAY. THE NEXT MORNING, ON STARTING THE CAR, THE SERVICE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. I WENT TO MY APPOINTMENT AND THE MECHANIC SAID, SOME CARS DO THAT AND AFTER DRIVING A WHILE, IT MAY NOT COME BACK ON. THE LIGHT HAS NOT COME BACK ON SINCE NOR HAS THE CAR STALLED OUT. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, WHEELS, SUSPENSION
WHEN NEARING A STOP AND TRYING TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN, IT WILL MAKE A SOUND... THEN KEEPS GOING BEFORE ACTUALLY STOPPING... INCREASING RISK OF HITTING CAR IN FRONT. ALSO WHEN ON THE HIGHWAY, CAR WILL WANT TO KIND OF STALL OUT DIE. MAYBE A SHORT CIRCUIT OR SOMETHING THAT IS DEFECTIVE.

POWER TRAIN, STRUCTURE
VEH IS A 2006 4CYL ACCORD COUPE VEH STARTED SHUDDERING DURING SLOW TO MODERATE ACCELERATION WHEN RPM'S REACHED AROUND 12-1500 AND SPEED WAS APPROX 35MPH. VEH HAS APPROX 47K MI ON SAME. DEALERSHIP TRIED TO SELL TRANSMISSION FLUID SERVICE EVEN THOUGH IT HAD LESS MILEAGE THAN MANUAL RECOMMENDED FOR SERVICE. TOOK MULTIPLE TRIPS TO 2 SEPARATE DEALERSHIPS (ALL OVER 1HR AWAY) BEFORE PROBLEM WAS ADDRESSED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. 2ND DEALER ALSO ADMITTED VEH SHIFTED HARDER THAN IT SHOULD AND REPLACED THE TORQUE CONVERTER. REPAIR ONLY LASTED APPROX 30K MI AND VEH NEEDS REPAIR AGAIN. VEH NOW SHUDDERS MORE FREQUENTLY AND AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS THOUGH ACCELERATION IS ALWAYS SLOW TO MODERATE. PREVIOUS REPAIR ONLY HAD A 1YR WARRANTY AND POWER TRAIN WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. HONDA HAD A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR THIS SAME ISSUE BUT SAME WAS SETTLED BEFORE MY VEH WAS BUILT THEREFORE IT IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE SUIT BUT I FEEL THIS IS RELATED. VEH ALSO HAS PAINT ISSUES HOWEVER THOSE ARE NOT NECESSARILY A "SAFETY" ISSUE. *TR
