VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE SUN ROOF EXPLODED. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT HAVE BEEN HIT BY SOMETHING BUT THE GLASS WAS FORCED UPWARD. I ASKED HONDA SERVICE IF THIS COULD BE A DEFECT PROBLEM BUT THEY SAID NO. THIS HAPPENED IN DECEMBER 03 WHEN THE CAR WAS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OLD. I HAD A SIMILAR PROBLEM WITH THE REAR WINDSHIELD WHICH ALSO EXPLODED IN 2007. BOTH THESE EVENTS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON A FREEWAY IN LIGHT TRAFFIC AT 60 MPH..

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE VEHICLE GETS STUCK IN 2ND GEAR. IT IS AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. SOMETIMES AT FREEWAY SPEEDS THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY DOWNSHIFTS SPONTANEOUSLY TO 2ND OR 1ST GEAR AND FEELS LIKE I'VE SUDDENLY AND VIOLENTLY APPLIED BRAKES TO THE CAR. THE SUDDEN STOP AND LURCH OF THE CAR IS VIOLENT AND SUDDEN AND CAUSES MOMENTARY LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

MY SON WAS INVOLVED IN A SINGLE CAR ROLL OVER ACCIDENT ON 10/10/2015. HE WAS TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR WHEN THE ROAD SURFACE CHANGED FROM ASPHALT TO GRAVEL. HE LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR AND THE VEHICLE DID ONE COMPLETE ROTATION LANDING BACK ON ITS TIRES. THE SEAT BELT DID NOT HOLD CAUSING HIS HEAD TO HIT THE INSIDE ROOF OF VEHICLE AND THROWING HIM FROM SIDE TO SIDE AS THE VEHICLE ROLLED OVER. MY SON SUFFERED A L1 BURST FRACTURE, DAMAGING HIS SPINAL CORD, WHICH LEFT HIM A PARAPLEGIC CONFINED TO A WHEELCHAIR . AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, WHICH DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT WAS A SIDE ROLLOVER, SENSORS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TRIGGED. THE CAR DID HOWEVER, HAVE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT, LEFT FRONT, LEFT REAR AND RIGHT FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. MY SON WAS 25 AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT.

TAKATA RECALL: I WANT TO KNOW WHY THE TAKATA AIRBAG IN MY CAR IS NOT BEING RECALLED "AT THIS TIME." AS I WAS TOLD BY HONDA IN TORRENCE. "AT THIS TIME" IS A LOUSY ANSWER AND I HARDLY DRIVE THIS VEHICLE OUT OF FEAR. IT IS 2003 AND I HAVE 51,000 MILES ON IT. I LIKE THIS CAR BUT I AM BEING TREATED LIKE MY LIFE IS NOT WORTH ANYTHING. I WANT AN ANSWER AS TO WHY MY TAKATA AIRBAG IS NOT BEING REPLACED. PERHAPS THE MEDIA CAN HELP ME.

I WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THAT MY 03 HONDA ACCORD WAS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL, BUT THE SEARCHES SAY THERE IS NO OUTSTANDING RECALL. THEY KEPT CHANGING THE YEARS, STATES W VS WO HUMIDITY, ETC, BUT ALL ACCORD BEFORE AND AFTER MY YEAR WERE AFFECTED, AND I AM CERTAIN THE AIRBAG FIX WAS NEVER DONE BY MY HONDA DEALERSHIP. I CAN'T GET TO THE BOTTOM OF THIS. IS THERE NOT A DANGER WITH THESE ORIGINAL TAKATA AIRBAGS? VIN [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
