VISIBILITY/WIPER
Windshield wiper motor has failed at approximately 26k miles. I own a 1997 chevy k1500 with 217k miles and the windshield wiper motor has never been replaced and still works. For my Honda to have this low of mileage and have this failure rate, I'm unsure of how to repair. Cannot find an aftermarket part at any of the local parts stores and am unsure of using factory remanufactured because of the failure rate being so soon, I don't trust the remanufactured and they never have good warranties and generally high in price from Honda.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I have experienced 2-3 sec hesitation upon accelerating. This hesitation occurs occasionally usually when turning and the is stopped or moving slowly. When it has happened I have experienced threatening safety situations particularly when making turns when crossing oncoming traffic such as when making a left 90 degree turn at a stop light with oncoming traffic in the lane I am crossing or if I have to make a quick acceleration to avoid a rapidly threatening safety situation.

SEATS
No accident occurred!, seats are extremely uncomfortable and is causing me back pains when sitting for long periods of time, I can imagine in a collision these seats would be very unsafe to a persons body, they’re so stiff if would be like getting pressed against a wall if hit hard enough, it’s time Honda FIXES this problem!

POWER TRAIN, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
Upon accelerating on a highway, the malfunction indicator light came on and the car lost power. Without drive power it was very dangerous to maneuver to exit the freeway. The dealership recognized that this was due to issues with the intercooler and PGM-FI software for this vehicle and is spelled out in a technical service bulletin (Honda 21-052). However, even though the car is under the original warranty, they want to charge over $250 for the repair.

AIR BAGS
Passenger airbag cutoff indicator shorted-out, causing my passenger side airbag to have the potential not to deploy in the event on an accident. Vehicle is less than four years old and numerous problems are cropping up with the electrical equipment, including this short of the passenger airbag cutoff indicator, which I believe is a safety issue.

STEERING
The power steering stops working while driving and steering becomes very difficult. The power steering warning light also goes on. Honda Repair in San Rafael has had my car 3 times for repair, and they also replaced the power steering at no charge. Unfortunately, the problem persists. As far as I know, Honda has not been able to reproduce the problem. It happens after at least 30 minutes of driving. When I stop the car and turn it off the problem clears. 1/23/22 was the last time it happened to me. The car is with Honda Repair now.

ENGINE
My Honda Accord 2014 only has 55,5000 miles . For the last 3 months the starter is not working proper. In the last 3 months l had the battery changed, the rely switch changed. Still the problem was still there. Then a new started was installed on 1/ 18/22 . Many people with less miles are complaining about the started in their Honda Accord, and Honda is not recalling the starter. I am a single woman and l feel, l am, and everyone is being taken advantage of. My first and last Honda. I am shocked about the lack of service with Honda. My starter total cost with labor was almost $400.00

AIR BAGS:SRS MALFUNCTION WARNING LAMP/LIGHT, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Supplemental Restraint System failure will pop up at random times maybe every other drive, then that code goes away. Just recently the ACC and Brake System flashes "Problem see dealer" as well as the head unit/display turning off and then back on intermittently. Front interior lights will turn on then turn off, sometimes immediately, and this has all been in the last year they've compiled. Closer to when I got my car a couple of years ago, the cruise control would just turn off and the automatic braking would start to slow the vehicle down. I attribute this to the "emergency braking" feature that would stop me with nothing in front of me, so it has been disabled ever since. Unfortunately my car doesn't fall under the VIN registry for the software recall, and from the looks of the other complaints this seems to be common problem with this car. If these issues are present I'm not sure why Honda would be so reluctant to accept that the recall affected a larger number of vehicles than they had initially thought. May have to get in contact with Honda Corporate.

AIR BAGS
I received a letter about the airbag recall for my 2000 Honda Accord EX back in year 2020, so I call the dealer in Sanford to make an appointment. They tell me I have to take my car in first, then they will inspect it and order the part (AutoNation Honda Sanford 407-323-6100). I arrived early, they took my car in and in about an hour later they called me that my car was ready. I was surprised on how fast the job was done. I looked at the invoice paperwork Honda gave me and left home. At my house I was looking at the invoice and it did not show anywhere where the airbag was recalled, so there was NO second appointment. I called on the same day of my appointment (Nov. 14, 2020) and speak to a rep who I explained the situation. She placed me on hold a few times and at one point I asked to speak to the person who was in charge who was Michael Donaldson (service advisor 7927). I explained to the service manager that I did not see anything about the airbag being recalled. He said after the tests they performed, my car did not need the airbag to be replaced, so they did not schedule another appointment because of that. Mr. Donaldson did tell me that Honda performed a SOFTWARE update and that would be it. I asked Mr. Donaldson "how a software update is going to fix the metal pieces inside the airbag?" His replied was "that was all the car needed". I decided not to call the same Honda dealer again, but did call Holler Honda (407) 629-1234. Unfortunately before I was able to take my car in, the transmission failed, so I had to cancel. I WILL fix the transmission and the car WILL be on the road again. I have proof of what Honda in Sanford did on the day of my appointment. I keep receiving letters and emails about the recall, so something WAS NOT done correctly, because if they send the report that my car didn't need an airbag, why do I keep getting letters and emails to call for appointment? I ALREADY MADE AN APPOINTMENT and HONDA DIDN'T FIND ANYTHING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I have continue to have issues with my navigation freezing. Then the whole navigation system will shut off and will eventually do a reboot in the middle of driving. It is definitely a safety hazard as you are trying to drive, navigate and try to figure out why your navigation system is breaking and not working working while driving. Especially If you are driving in an unfamiliar area using your navigation because you actually need it, then it becomes very frustrating and very dangerous and hazardous.
