SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP, AIR BAGS:FRONTAL
I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA REGARDING BOTH THESE PROBLEMS. THEY HAVE AGREED TO PAY 25% OF THE TOTAL COST. I FEEL THAT SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT BOTH THESE PROBLEMS FOR THIS YEAR CAR THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL - EVEN THE HONDA MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT IF I TRADED THIS CAR IN HONDA CARS OF CORONA WOULD HAVE TO REPAIR BOTH ITEMS BEFORE THEY SOLD THE CAR BECAUSE THEY ARE SAFETY PROBLEMS. HONDA SHOULD PAY THE ENTIRE COST. *AK

LATCHES/LOCKS/LINKAGES:HOOD:LATCH
I AM THE OWNER OF A BODYSHOP THAT REPAIRED A 1993 HONDA ACCORD WITH SOME LIGHT FRONT END DAMAGE. DURING THE COURSE OF THE REPAIR , WE NOTICED THAT THE STRIKER OF THE EXISTING HOOD WAS LOOSE. THE STRIKER IS WHAT THE LATCH HOOKS ON TO TO KEEP THE HOOD CLOSED. THE HOOD WITH THE LOOSE STRIKER WAS NOT DAMAGED IN THE CURRENT CRASH, BUT WAS REPLACED SOME TIME BEFORE. IT TURNS OUT THAT THE HOOD WAS AN AFTERMARKET HOOD NOT MADE BY HONDA. I REPLACED THE HOOD FOR THE CUSTOMER WITH A FACTORY HONDA HOOD AT NO CHARGE TO THE CUSTOMER. WOULD YOU BE INTERESTED IN INSPECTING THE AFTERMARKET HOOD? I REALIZE THIS IS A HOT TOPIC AFTER THE STATE FARM VERTICT SEVERAL MONTHS AGO. I CAN SEE NO SIGNS OF STRESS IN THE METAL WHERE THE STRIKER PULLED OUT. IT WAS NEVER CRIMPED DOWN AT THE FACTORY. THIS HOOD PROBABLY WOULD HAVE BLOWN UP ON THE HIGHWAY SOMEDAY CAUSING THE DRIVER TO BECOME BLINDED BECAUSE THE HOOD IS OVER THE WINDSHEILD. THIS IS A PRIME EXAMPLE OF WHAT CONCERNS THE BODYSHOP INDUSTRY CONCERNING AFTERMARKET PARTS. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT YOU THINK. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME! JIM CHAMPION. *AK

WAS TOLD BY MECHANIC THAT, THIS WAS THE 4TH ONE THEY FIXED SO FAR THIS YEAR AND THAT THERE IS A FIX TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING AND THAT ONLY DEALERS AND SERVICE STATIONS WERE NOTIFIED.
