STEERING
WHEN IN MOTION, THE STEERING WHEEL RANDOMLY LOCKS WHEN TURNING. WHILE TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL WILL LOCK AND THE VEHICLE WILL KEEP STRAIGHT AS IF THE STEERING WHEEL HAS NOT BEEN TURNED AT ALL. IT HAS ALSO LOCKED WHEN ATTEMPTING TO REVERSE FROM A PARKING SPOT MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO BACK OUT. I HAD TO SWITCH BACK AND FORTH FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE MULTIPLE TIMES BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD LOCK WITH MINIMAL SLACK ALLOWING ME TO BARELY MANEUVER THE VEHICLE IN THE CORRECT DIRECTION TO SUCCESSFULLY BACK OUT. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE POWER STEERING BELT THINKING THAT IT WAS SLIPPING WHICH COULD CAUSE THE ISSUE, HOWEVER THE ISSUE STILL CONTINUES. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT BACK AGAIN FOR FURTHER EVALUATION AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON A PIN PART OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THIS DEEPLY CONCERNS ME BECAUSE I HAVE AN INFANT CHILD AND MY VEHICLE IS THE MAIN SOURCE OF TRANSPORTATION FOR HIM BECAUSE MY HUSBAND HAS A SINGLE CAB TRUCK. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS RANDOMLY IT PUTS OUR LIVES IN JEOPARDY, ESPECIALLY WITH ONGOING DAILY TRAFFIC AND NEVER KNOWING WHEN TO EXPECT IT TO HAPPEN.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
BOTH FRONT WIPERS STOP WORKING INTERMITTENTLY DURING A RAIN OR SNOW STORM. NOTHING SOLVES THE PROBLEM - E.G. CHANGING FROM ON/OFF/HIGH/MEDIUM/INTERMITTENT. TURNING LIGHTS AND FAN OFF DOESN'T HELP. THE WIPERS STOP MOVING AT RANDOM POSITIONS, SOMETIMES STOPPING FOR A FEW SECONDS, TO MINUTES. NOTE THAT BOTH WIPERS STOP WORKING TOGETHER; THEY EITHER BOTH ARE MOVING OR BOTH STOPPED. THIS HAS HAPPENED DURING DRIVING (ON HIGHWAY AND CITY) IN AT LEAST 2 RAIN STORMS AND ONE SNOW STORM, WITHIN THE LAST 5 YEARS. MY ONLY RECOURSE HAS BEEN TO TRY TO LOOK OUT THE SIDE WINDOW, BECAUSE I HAVE ABOUT 10% VISIBILITY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. I AM VERY LUCKY TO HAVE NOT CRASHED. NOTE THAT THIS PROBLEM IS HARD TO REPRODUCE - THE WIPERS NORMALLY WORK, EXCEPT WHEN I ACTUALLY NEED THEM. I REFUSE TO DRIVE THIS CAR WITH RAIN OR SNOW IN THE FORECAST. 2 DEALERS HAVE LOOKED AT IT AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE BATTERY CHANGED.

AIR BAGS, STEERING, SUSPENSION
TAKATA RECALL AIR BAGS SHOULD BE REINSTALLED IN ALL VEHICLES OF THE YEAR THAT WAS BEING RECALLED. I HAVE A 2004 HONDA ACCORD SEDAN AND I FIND IT APPLAUDING THAT RESPONSIBILITY ISN'T BEING ACCEPTED 100%. IF ONE AIR BAG IS DEFECTED THEN THEY ALL SHOULD AND COULD BE, WITH THAT BEING SAID I URGE THEM TO HONOR THE FAULTY EQUIPMENT AND FIX IT INSTEAD OF 'PLAYING WITH PEOPLE'S LIVES' AND WAIT I TO SEE IF THE WORSE HAPPENS WHEN THE AIR BAGS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFETY ITEM IN CASE OF A ACCIDENT IN WHICH THEY WILL RELEASE.
