ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:DOORS:LATCH, SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK
THIS 2003 HONDA ACCORD HAS CAUSED ME A LOT OF PROBLEMS SINCE THE BEGINNING I BOUGHT IT. JUST AFTER 2 WEEKS WITH AROUND 500 MILES ALL THIS RATTLING NOISES STARTED COMING FROM THE DOORS AND WINDOWS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY FIXED IT, BUT THE PROBLEM WAS BACK LESS THAN A WEEK AFTER. TODAY I HAVE 14000 MILES ON MY CAR AND I HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER MORE THEN 20 TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE RUN CHANNELS AND OTHER PARTS WITHOUT ANY SUCCESS. ALSO THE INTERIOR IS FALLING A PART; THE MIDDLE COMPARTMENT IS NOT WORKING. THE CD COMPARTMENT GETS STUCK ALL THE TIME. THE ENGINE IS MAKING A LOT OF NOISE, FEELS LIKE ITS ACTUALLY SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE NEXT TO ME. I KNOW THIS IS NOT THE QUALITY HONDA HAS, MY WIFE HAS A 1996 ACCORD AND IT DOESNT MAKE AS MUCH NOISES AS MINE, AND IT ALSO RUNS BETTER. HONDA NEEDS TO TAKE QUALITY SERIOUSLY. AND HELP ME OUT WITH THIS LEMON CAR.*AK

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
REOCCURING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. GLAD I BOUGHT THE 100K WARRANTY...CHANGED ONCE AT 60K DUE TO BEARING FAILURE...NOW AT 75K THE CENTER BETWEEN THE BACK SEATS GET VERY, VERY HOT AND STARTING TO FEEL SLIPPING...AGAIN. LOOKS LIKE ANOTHER TRIP TO THE DEALER FOR ANOTHER TRANSMISSION. I DON'T FEEL SAFE...ESPECIALLY WHEN I COMMUTE 75 MILES A DAY WITH A 13 MONTH OLD BABY.

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM:EMISSION CONTROL:CATALYTIC CONVERTOR
MY 2003 HONDA ACCORD HAS A REALLY BAD "ROTTEN EGG" SMELL ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AFTER I PURCHASED THE CAR IN OCTOBER OF 2002. I HAVE ALREADY HAD THE CONVERTER REPLACED AT 3000 MILES. I HAVE SWITCHED BRANDS OF GASOLINE. STILL HAVE THE SMELL. I WAS TOLD ALL THE SENSORS CHECK OUT OKAY. WOULD LIKE SOME CLOSURE TO THE SMELL. THIS IS MY FIRST HONDA. JUST HAD THE 10K MILE SERVICE, CAR RUNS WORSE THAN BEFORE. POSSIBLY MY LAST HONDA PRODUCT UNLESS I GET THE PROBLEM RESOLVED.
