SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:ANTILOCK
THIS IS THE SECOND MAJOR "DEFECT" I HAVE HAD WITH THIS VECHILE. FIRST IT WAS WITH THE OIL SEAL WHICH RESULTED IN A $750.00 REPAIR AND NOW WITH THE ABS WHICH IS $1665.00. HOW ABOUT MAKING HONDA RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DEFECTS THEY HAVE IN THIS CAR. I'M TIRED OF SHELLING OUT BIG BUCKS FOR THEIR MISTAKES.

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION. THE COST FOR THE NEW TRANSMISSION IS $3,000.00. WE ONLY HAD 80,000 MILES ON OUR ACCORD WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WENT BAD. WE REALLY EXPECTED THE TRANSMISSION WOULD LAST LONGER THAN 80,000. MILES. IF YOU HAVE ANY ADVICE OR INFORMATION SIMILIAR TO OUR PROBLEM WE WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

#711616September 20, 1999
ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
BALANCE SHAFT SEAL FAILURE LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC OIL LOSS FROM TIMING BELT COVER HOUSING. MAY BE DESIGN DEFECT IN ORIGINAL SEAL BECAUSE DEALER FIXING CAR SAID REPLACEMENT PART WAS 'LARGER' AND HE DID A STEADY BUSINESS IN REPAIRING HONDAS WITH FAILED BALANCE SHAFT SEALS. THE DEALER HAD NOT SEEN ANY FAILURES OF THE DIFFERENTLY DESIGNED REPLACEMENT PART BALANCE SHAFT SEAL. (THIS DEALER WAS IN NEW HAMPSHIRE WHERE THE SEAL FAILED.) FIXING A SHAFT SEAL FAILURE REQUIRES NEW BALANCE BELT AND NEW TIMING BELT IN ADDITION TO NEW SEAL. IF ENGINE DAMAGE HAS OCCURRED DUE TO THE SUDDEN OIL LOSS, YOU MIGHT AS WELL GIVE UP. APPARENTLY THE SEAL FAILS WITHOUT WARNING (OUR SEAL FAILED WITHIN TWO WEEKS AND 700 MILES OF A VERY MAJOR SERVICING BY THE DEALER).

POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION
ENGINE WANTS TO LURCH FORWARD WHILE AT STOPS--WITH BRAKE DEPRESSED, THEN HESITATES WHEN ATTEMPTING TO ACCELEARATE. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND DISCUSSED TWO TIMES, EACH TIME DEALERSHIP CAN'T REPLICATE PROBLEM. I AM VERY CONCERNED OF THE POTENTIAL "ACCIDENT" WAITING TO HAPPEN. AFTER READING THE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS, AND NOTICING ACCIDENTS WITH THIS ISSUE CAUSES ME GREATER CONCERN. WHAT IS THE NEXT STEP TO GETTING THIS FIXED?

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE
FUEL GAUGE NEVER READ FULL, ON A FULL GAS TANK. DEALER REPLACED FUEL SENDING UNIT, WHICH RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT BELT GETS CAUGHT ON THE RELEASE LEVER OF THE SEAT-BACK WHILE SEAT BELT IS BUCKLED. THIS SEVERELY RESTRICTS THE OF MOVEMENT OF THE DRIVER. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I AM STRAPPED VERY TIGHT IN THE SEAT UNTIL I CAN MANAGE TO REMOVE THE SEAT BELT PART THAT IS STUCK TO THE RELEASE LEVER.
