I WAS DRIVING OUT OF MY NEIGHBOOD IN A 25 MPH ZONE AND HIT A MAIL TRUCK ON THE WRONG SIDE IF THE ROAD. I HIT THE MAIL TRUCK AFTER TURNING A CORNER, AS I TURNED THE CORNER, A SPIDER CRAWLED FROM THE CEILING OF MY CAR AND I TRIED TO SWAT IT AWAY AND DIDN'T SEE THE MAIL TRUCK. THE IMPACT CAUSED THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY BUT THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAG WAS DELAYED, IT DID NOT HAPPENED IMMEDIATELY BUT A FEW SECONDS AFTER THE IMPACT CAUSING BAD BURNS AND BLISTERS TO MY HAND. I DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION BUT DOCTORED ON MY HAND MYSELF; IT TOOK MONTHS BEFORE THE APPEARANCE IF MY HAND WOULD LOOK NORMAL. I HAVE PICTURES. THE REPAIR SHOP, TOW TRUCK AND POLICE OFFICER COULD NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED IN THE FIRST PLACE WITH SUCH LOW SPEED. IT TOOK MONTHS TO GET MY CAR REPAIRED, LONGER THAN NORMAL. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF THE CAR. THE RECENT RECALLS HAVE CAUSED ME TO WRITE THIS, I HAD NO IDEA THE AIRBAGS WERE DEFECTIVE. IT WAS A VERY BIG INCONVIENIENCE TO ME.

POWER TRAIN, STRUCTURE:BODY
THIS IS MY FIRST HONDA & WILL BE MY LAST. BOUGHT THE CAR WITH 50,000 MILES ON IT-FIGURED WE WERE SET FOR QUITE A WHILE. AT 53,000 THE TRANSMISSION WENT-3,000 MILES OVER WARRANTY. CALLED HONDA DIRECTLY & AFTER CRYING, BEGGING, PLEADING, ETC THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION FREE OF CHARGE. THREE YEARS LATER I HAVE A CAR WITH 110,000 MILES ON IT. THE WHITE PAINT IS ALL PITTED WITH RUST SPOTS, THE PASSENGER SIDE MOTOR LOCK IS BROKEN & THE DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER WINDOW MOTOR IS SHOT. GOD ONLY KNOWS ABOUT THE AIR BAGS!! I HATE THIS CAR WITH A PASSION. MY HUSBANDS 1996 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AT OVER 200,000 MILES!! I CAN'T BELIEVE HONDA DOESN'T PUT OUT RECALLS ON SOME OF THESE THINGS AS I'VE READ QUITE A FEW COMPLAINTS ABOUT THEM ON THE INTERNET. OBVIOUSLY HONDA ISN'T CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR REPUTATION AT ALL. I WAS SO IMPRESSED WHEN THEY FINALLY AGREED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BUT ITS LIKE I GOT THE LEMON OF ALL HONDAS!!! *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I WAS TRAVELING AT THE SPEED OF 35 MPH IN LOW TRAFFIC WHEN I HIT A SMALL BUMP AND MY CAR LOST ALL POWER. ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON AND STEERING BECAME REALLY TIGHT. I DRIFTED TO A STOP AND SWITCHED THE CAR OFF THEN ON. IT RESTARTED AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. THE LIGHT THEN WENT OFF. TWO WEEKS BEFORE THIS THE CAR CUT OFF AS I WAS BACKING OUT MY DRIVEWAY. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I TOOK IT TO TIRES PLUS THE TECHNICIAN FOUND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO BE A COMPUTER ERROR. THIS IS REALLY DANGEROUS. ITS SEEMS AS IF THE CAR IS DESIGN TO CUT OFF AS TO ALERT ME SOMETHING IS WRONG; HOWEVER, THAT WOULD BE GREAT IF IT CUT OFF BEFORE IT IS PUT IN GEAR. ONCE I START MOVING THIS PUTS ME IN GREAT DANGER OF BEING RAN OVER AND KILLED. THE OUT COME OF THIS DESIGN COULD BE FATAL FOR ME AND MANY MORE EXPERIENCING THIS. WALSH HONDA OF MACON, GA ALSO FOUND THE CODES TO BE ERRONEOUS. *TR

ENGINE
IN JANUARY, THREE WEEKS AFTER DRIVING 1000 MILES TO FLORIDA THE ENGINE STARTED TO MISS AND WITH IN A MILE I COULD NOT GO 10 MILES A HOUR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE FORT MYERS, FLORIDA HONDA DEALER. I WAS TOLD ONE OF THE REAR SPARK PLUGS WAS LOOSE AND THE BLOW-BY OVER-HEATED THE SPARK PLUG CAUSING THE INSIDE OF THE PLUG TO COME LOOSE FALL INSIDE THE HEAD THUS CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. THE COIL MOUNTED TO THE SPARK PLUG WAS CHARRED INDICATING VERY HIGH TEMPERATURE FROM THE BLOW-BY. THE PLUG WAS LOOSE IN THE SOCKET INDICATING IT WAS NOT TIGHTEN SECURELY. THE TOP OF THE PLUG IS STILL IN-PLACE ON THE SPARK PLUG. I HAVE THE PARTS. THE ENGINE HAD THE FLUIDS CHECK AND OIL CHANGED EVERY 4000 MILES AND NORMAL MAINTENANCE PERFORMED. I DO MOST OF MY OWN MAINTENANCE AND HAD NO REASON TO CHECK THE SPARK PLUGS. I KEEP TRACK OF GASOLINE USAGE AND THE CAR HAD NO CHANGE IN GAS CONSUMPTION, AN INDICATION OF BAD SPARKPLUGS. OVER ALL USAGE OF 22 M/G. THE SUGGESTION OF THE SERVICE MANAGER WAS THAT THE LEASE EXPENSIVE WAY TO GET BACK TO MY HOME IN OHIO WAS TO HAVE A USED ENGINE INSTALLED. IT TOOK OVER A WEEK. I NOW HAVE ALMOST $5000 MORE INVESTED IN THE CAR BECAUSE OF FAULTY MANUFACTURING. *TR
