AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
I WAS STOPPED - WAS HIT HEAD ON BY AN OUT OF CONTROL DRIVER WHOSE CAR SPUN AROUND, HIT MY CAR ON DRIVER'S SIDE AND PUSHED ME INTO A STONE WALL DAMAGING THE CAR ON THE PASSENGER'S SIDE ALSO. THE AIRBAG ON MY CAR (DRIVER'S SIDE) DEPLOYED AND I GOT SECOND DEGREE BURNS ON MY WRISTS AND ARMS FROM THE AIRBAG AND AM NOW BEING TREATED AT A BURN CENTER FOR SECOND DEGREE BURNS. I HAD GLOVES ON AND THE BURN WENT THROUGH THE GLOVES PUTTING HOLES IN THEM. THIS WAS A TERRIBLE CRASH CAUSING OVER $11,000.00 DAMAGE TO MY CAR AND I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT MY MEDICAL BILLS ARE. I FEEL THIS AIRBAG HAD TO BE DEFECTIVE. IT ALSO CONCERNS ME THAT MY CAR WAS HIT HEAD ON AND ON BOTH SIDES AND ONLY THE AIRBAG ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DEPLOYED. ALL THE AIRBAGS IN THIS CAR MUST BE DEFECTIVE OR CERTAINLY NOT WORKING PROPERLY. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I PURCHASED A NEW HONDA ACCORD IN MAY 2014 IN AUSTIN, TX. ABOUT ONE MONTH LATER, THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING AND LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEMS FAILED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALER TOLD ME THE CAMERAS WERE NOT ABLE TO HANDLE THE HEAT IN TEXAS. THEY SUGGESTED A FIX OF TURNING THE AC ON TO COOL THE FRONT WINDOW. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES THAT SEEMED TO FIX IT, BUT IT WAS ONLY VERY TEMPORARY. THESE SYSTEMS ARE ADVERTISED TO BE LIFE-SAVING SAFETY FEATURES, BUT THEY STILL DON'T WORK AFTER MORE THAN 6 MONTHS. IS THERE A RECALL IN THE WORKS? *TR

STEERING, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I WAS GETTING SERVICE DONE ON MY 2007 HONDA CIVIC RECALL HTTP://WWW.CONSUMERREPORTS.ORG/CRO/NEWS/2014/03/FREE-ENGINE-REPLACEMENT-FOR-2006-2009-HONDA-CIVICS/INDEX.HTM. I WAS GIVEN 2014 HONDA ACCORD AS A LOANER VEHICLE FOR THE PERIOD MY CAR WAS GETTING FIXED AT THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS FOR 3 DAYS. HOWEVER, ON JAN 6TH 2015, WE HAD SNOW IN OUR AREA AND THE TEMPERATURE OUTSIDE WAS BELOW FREEZING. I HAD THE VEHICLE IN MY GARAGE AND WHEN I LEFT FOR WORK ON JAN 7TH, I HAD BACKED OUT THE CAR FROM THE GARAGE AND WHEN I TURNED ON TO OUR STREET, I HAD NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL A BIT STIFF. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE SNOW ON THE GROUND THAT HAD MADE IT LITTLE DIFFICULT TO TURN. AS I PROCEEDED TO DRIVE ON OUR STREET AT SPEED LESS THAN 10 MPH, I CAME TO THE FIRST TURN THAT I MAKE TO GET TO THE STREET LEADING UP TO THE MAIN STREET. AS I TRIED TO MAKE THE RIGHT TURN, I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN AND DUE TO SNOW IT STARTED SKIDDING TO MY LEFT. AT SPEED OF LESS THAN 15 MPH AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, THE VEHICLE SKID TO THE LEFT PAVEMENT. IT CAUSED MINOR SCRATCHES ON THE FRONT LEFT RIM AND CAUSED THE ALIGNMENT TO BE OFF. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AS IT WAS A LOANER VEHICLE AND DEALERSHIP PROCEEDED WITH GETTING 'FRONT SUSPENSION' AND 'STEERING GEAR & LINKAGE' REPLACED THROUGH MY INSURANCE. IT COST ME $750 AS DEDUCTIBLE COST THAT I'VE PAID TO THE DEALERSHIP. UPON RESEARCHING THIS EVENT FURTHER ON THE INTERNET, I FOUND THAT SIMILAR COMPLAINT IS UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR 2013 (MY LOANER VEHICLE IS 2014 MODEL) HONDA ACCORDS THAT HAD SURFACED IN NOV 2014 (HTTP://WWW-ODI.NHTSA.DOT.GOV/ACMS/CS/JAXRS/DOWNLOAD/DOC/UCM466318/INOA-PE14033-1232.PDF). I FEEL THAT THIS ISSUE WITH 2013 HONDA ACCORDS HAS/WILL-BE CONTINUED WITH 2014 HONDA ACCORDS AS THE SYMPTOMS I HAD OBSERVED WERE SIMILAR TO THOSE 2013 HONDA ACCORD. *TR

STEERING
AS I WAS CHANGING LANE AT AROUND 45 MPH ON A SLIGHTLY BENDING RAMP (ARTHURSBURG RD) TO A TWO-LANE HIGHWAY (TACONIC STATE PARKWAY SOUTH BOUND, NEW YORK), MY POWER STEERING SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. THE STEERING WHEEL HAS JERKED TO THE LEFT/RIGHT FOR ABOUT 15 SECONDS. MY VEHICLE RAN FROM THE RAMP LANE TO THE SIDE OF THE INNER LANE. I WAS TRYING TO STEER AWAY FROM THE INNER LANE TO AVOID A CLASH WITH A MOVING SUV IN THE INNER LANE, BUT THE POWER STEERING WAS NOT WORKING AT ALL. INITIALLY, IT SEEMS THE BRAKE DID NOT WORK EITHER. AT THE FINAL MOMENT, I PRESSED THE BRAKE AS HARD AS I COULD TO AVOID A CLASH WITH THE SUV IN INNER LANE. MY CAR STOPPED. LUCKILY, THERE WAS NOT ANY VEHICLE AT OUTER LANE. ALL CARS BEHIND ME NOTICED THE SITUATION AND STOPPED. OTHERWISE, A MAJOR ACCIDENT WOULD OCCUR. *TR

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WE SMELLED FUEL WHEN DRIVING TO CHURCH ON A SUNDAY. THINKING IT WAS SOME LEFTOVER FUEL SPLASHED, WE CONTINUED BUT THEN THE SMELL BECAME REALLY INTENSE. SO WE TURNED AROUND AND RETURNED TOWARD HOME. UPON ENTERING OUR STREET, SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE STALLED TOTALLY OUT AND CAME TO A STOP IN MIDDLE OF THE ROAD! WE ROLLED IT OVER TO THE SIDE, IT IS A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET; THEN STARTED CAR AGAIN AND WENT SLOWLY DOWNHILL TO THE HOUSE; CAR STALLED AGAIN JUST OUTSIDE OUR HOUSE, WE COULD NOT GET IT INTO DRIVEWAY, VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL; WE PUSHED IT TO GET IT PARKED ON THE STREET. TRIED AGAIN LATER THAT DAY TO START THE CAR BUT IT WOULDN'T START, VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL AND GASOLINE LEAKING ONTO THE STREET. CAR TOWED TO HONDA DEALER NEXT DAY; AFTER TECHNICIANS EXAMINED THE CAR THEY CONCLUDED "RODENT DAMAGE" TO THE FUEL LINE LEADING TO THE FUEL TANK. THEY WOULD NOT COVER ANY OF THE DAMAGE AS IT "WASN'T MANUFACTURER DEFECT." ALSO CALLED NATIONAL HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND OPENED A CASE; BUT THEY WOULD NOT AGREE EITHER TO COVER ANYTHING. WE WERE VERY LUCKY WE WEREN'T ON A HIGHWAY OR INTERSTATE WHEN THIS SUDDENLY STALLED OUT, WE COULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED AS THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED WITH NO WARNING! THE FUEL LINE LAST PORTION LEADING INTO THE TANK IS MADE OF RUBBER, IT IS NOT METAL OR HARD PLASTIC LIKE THE REST OF THE LINE AND THEREFORE SUBJECT TO SOMETHING SHARP PUNCTURING IT--WHICH IS A DEFECTIVE DESIGN IN OUR VIEW. THE NEW PART THEY PUT ON IS SAME AS THE OLD, THE SAME THING COULD HAPPEN AGAIN. THERE IS NO SHIELD UNDER THE FUEL TANK AREA TO KEEP THINGS FROM UNDERNEATH GETTING UP IN THERE. HONDA SHOULD AT LEAST COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR (WE PAID $684.09), CAR IS ALMOST BRAND NEW. AND WE BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, CAR CAN SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING. THANK YOU FOR YOUR HELP. *TR

TRUNK OPENS FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS TWO OR THREE TIMES A MONTH WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHEN BOTH KEYS ARE 50 FEET OR SO FROM THE CAR AND NO ONE IS NEAR THEM. OBVIOUSLY NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT IT DOES MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SECURE ANYTHING OF VALUE IN THE TRUNK. HONDA REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE IT WON'T HAPPEN WHILE THEY ARE STANDING THERE LOOKING AT THE CAR. SOME OF MY FRIENDS WHO OWN THE SAME TYPE OF HONDA ARE HAVING THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM. *TR

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS (ROUGHLY ONCE A MONTH), I HAVE COME BACK TO MY PARKED CAR TO FIND THAT THE TRUNK IS OPEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS, INCLUDING AT HOME WHERE MY KEY IS HANGING ON A HOOK AND NOT IN MY POCKET (ELIMINATED ACCIDENTAL PRESSES AS A CAUSE). HONDA SERVICE CENTER REPLACED THE TRUNK LATCH AND CABLE, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. *TR

EXTERIOR LIGHTING:HEADLIGHTS
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE LOW BEAM HEAD LAMPS WERE TOO DIM AND IMPAIRED THE CONTACT'S VISIBILITY. THE CONTACT HAD TO TURN ON THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN ORDER TO SEE THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50.

WHILE DRIVING MY NEW HONDA, I NOTICED AN ODOR SIMILAR TO A GAS SMELL, SORT OF LIKE A PILOT ON WITH NO FLAME WHEN THE HEAT IS ON, THE ODOR COMES AND GOES. THE ODOR IS SO BAD AT TIMES THAT IT UPSETS MY STOMACH. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO HONDA TO HAVE IT CHECKED IN NOVEMBER OF 2014, AND, THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP, THE ODOR ARRIVED FOR A MINIMAL AMOUNT OF TIME AND THEN DISSIPATED. HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM DOES STILL OCCUR. *JS

MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD SPORT WITH ONLY 5687 MILES ON IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AS I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE. I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH. I HAD TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES TO AVOID DRIVING OVER THE CONCRETE BARRIER. I HAVE RECENTLY NOTICED A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, WHICH DISSIPATES AFTER A FEW MINUTES. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY SCARY EXPERIENCE. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN
I BOUGHT MY 2014 HONDA CIVIC EXL NEW IN FEB 2014, AND EVER SINCE NEW THE TPMS LIGHT HAS BEEN TURNING ON, EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN UPDATED SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE LATEST SOFTWARE AT THE PURCHASING DEALERSHIP. EACH TIME AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED, THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. THE TPMS LIGHT COMES ON AT DIFFERENT INTERVALS, AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND OVER DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROADWAYS. I THEN CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA TO RESISTER A CASE NUMBER WITH THEM. HONDA AMERICA INSTRUCTED ME TO HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED AGAIN BY THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP, OVERNIGHT, SO THEIR TECHNICIANS CAN WORK IN CONCERT WITH THE DEALERSHIPS TECHNICIANS. WHATEVER THEY DID, DID NOT CORRECT THE SITUATION AS THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITHIN A WEEK. HONDA AMERICA THEN HAD ME BRING MY VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP, AGAIN OVERNIGHT. ONCE AGAIN THE LIGHT CAME ON WITHIN A WEEK. HONDA AMERICA NOW TELLS ME, AFTER 10 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP AND NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE, THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO REMEDY THE MALFUNCTIONING TPMS SYSTEM IN MY VEHICLE.

SEATS
I WOULD LIKE TO LODGE A COMPLAINT AGAINST THE CURRENT HEADRESTS IN THE 2014 HONDA ACCORD - I AM 5 FOOT 5 AND CAN'T SIT IN THE SEAT FOR MORE THAN 10 MINUTES WITHOUT EXPERIENCING NECK PAIN. THE HEADREST ANGLE IS TOO FAR FORWARD AND DOES NOT ALIGN WITH MY SPINE. IT PUSHES MY HEAD FORWARD. IT BECOMES VERY PAINFUL OVER TIME, AND NO SEAT ADJUSTMENT CAN MAKE IT BETTER. I HAD THE PROBLEM IN THE 2013 4 DOOR SEDAN AND OE IN MY 2014 2 DOOR COUP. THE ONLY ADJUSTMENT IS HEIGHT. WHEN I LOWER IT TO PROTECT MY HEAD AND NECK I HAVE TO RECLINE THE SEAT WHERE I AM NOT COMFORTABLE. *TR

DEAR SIR OR MADAM, I WOULD LIKE TO LODGE A COMPLAINT AGAINST THE CURRENT HEADRESTS IN THE 2014 HONDA ACCORD (AND MANY SIMILAR SEDANS.) I AM 5 FOOT 3 AND CAN'T SIT IN THE SEAT FOR MORE THAN 10 MINUTES WITHOUT EXPERIENCING NECK PAIN. THE HEADREST ANGLE IS TOO FAR FORWARD AND DOES NOT ALIGN WITH MY SPINE. IT PUSHES MY HEAD FORWARD. IT BECOMES VERY PAINFUL OVER TIME, AND NO SEAT ADJUSTMENT CAN MAKE IT BETTER. HONDA AND OTHER AR COMPANIES TELL ME THAT THE NHTSA REQUIRES THAT THEY INSTALL HEADRESTS AT THIS ANGLE TO ACHIEVE THE HIGHEST SAFETY RATING. BUT WHAT GOOD IS THAT IF THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS ARE IN PAIN? I REALIZE THAT THIS ANGLE MAY WORK FOR PEOPLE TALLER THAN ME, BUT THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE BETWEEN 5 FEET AND 5'5 AND THE CAR COMPANIES NEED THE ABILITY TO MAKE ADJUSTABLE HEADRESTS, OR SELECTABLE HEADRESTS WITHOUT JEOPARDIZING THEIR SAFETY RATINGS. PLEASE DO SOMETHING TO HELP SUFFERING DRIVERS LIKE ME. (MY ONLY OPTIONS ARE TO REMOVE THE HEADREST ALTOGETHER, OR TURN IT BACKWARDS, WHICH SURELY IS NOT SAFE.) I TRIED TEN CARS BEFORE BUYING THE HONDA ACCORD. ALL THE OTHER HEADRESTS WERE EVEN WORSE! (ONLY EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE CARS AND MORE SEEM TO OFFER HORIZONTALLY ADJUSTABLE HEADRESTS. I CANNOT AFFORD A $50,000 CAR. THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION. PLEASE CHANGE THE GUIDELINES.

SIMILAR TO NHTSA COMPLAINTS #10619205, #10607907, #10655300, #10630708, AND #10628501. DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON INTERSTATE, GOING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH. THE VEHICLE CAME TO A LARGE INCLINE AND BEGAN ACCELERATING, AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE ENTIRE VEHICLE SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY AND LOST ALL ACCELERATION, AND THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP CAME ON AND WAS BLINKING. IT FELT LIKE THE VEHICLE HAD SHIFTED OUT OF GEAR, AND IT COULD NOT GET BACK IN GEAR. AFTER OVER 10 MINUTES, I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND THE LIGHT DID NOT COME BACK ON. ALTHOUGH I COULD FEEL THAT PUSHING ON THE GAS PEDAL DID NOT FEEL THE SAME, AND IT FELT AS IF THE VEHICLE WAS HESITATING AND STRUGGLING TO SWITCH GEARS UP AND ACCELERATE. ON 8/29/2014, AGAIN ON THE INTERSTATE, WHILE AGAIN IN CRUISE CONTROL (ECO BOOST WAS NOT ACTIVE), GOING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, ACCELERATING UP A LARGE INCLINE, THE VEHICLE AGAIN, ALL OF A SUDDEN, SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY AND LOST ALL ACCELERATION, AND THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP CAME ON AND WAS BLINKING. IT FELT LIKE THE VEHICLE HAD SHIFTED OUT OF GEAR, AND IT COULD NOT GET BACK IN GEAR. APPROXIMATELY 70 MILES LATER, WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL, GOING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, ACCELERATING UP A LARGE INCLINE, THE VEHICLE AGAIN, ALL OF A SUDDEN, SHUDDERED VIOLENTLY AND LOST ALL ACCELERATION. THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP CAME ON AND WAS BLINKING AND THE DASHBOARD LIT UP WITH A MESSAGE STATING ?FCW SYSTEM FAILED.? THE FCW INDICATOR LIGHT WAS LIT ON MY DASHBOARD, AS WELL AS THE LDW LIGHT, THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT, THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING (EPS) SYSTEM INDICATOR, AND THE VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA) SYSTEM INDICATOR. IT FELT LIKE THE VEHICLE HAD SHIFTED OUT OF GEAR AND IT COULD NOT GET BACK IN GEAR OR IT COULD NOT ACCELERATE. AFTER 3 SERVICE CALLS, HONDA'S RESPONSE IS ONLY "CANNOT REPLICATE, SO THERE IS NO PROBLEM." THERE IS OBVIOUSLY A SERIOUS PROBLEM. *JS

MY ACCELERATION CONDITIONS/PROBLEMS ARE IDENTICAL TO NHTSA ID #10607907 & SEVERAL OTHERS. UPON ACCELERATION THERE IS A SEVERE HESITATION TO THE POINT OF ALMOST STALLING BEFORE IT ACCELERATES. AT 15000 MILES IT APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY A SERVICE REP THIS WAS COMPUTER CONTROLLED AND NOT CABLE CONTROLLED AS IN THE PAST. THERE DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE A FIX TO THIS AS IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC. *TR
