ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
THE PASSENGER WINDOWS (1 FRONT & 2 REAR) STOPPED WORKING. WHEN THEY STOPPED WORKING, THE WINDOWS WERE PARTIALLY DOWN. I COULD NOT RAISE THE WINDOWS BY ANY USUAL MEANS. ALL I WOULD GET IS A CLICKING SOUND AT THE MASTER WINDOW CONTROL AND THE INDIVIDUAL RESPECTIVE WINDOWS CONTROLS WHEN I TRIED TO RAISE THEM. THE ONLY WINDOW THAT WOULD OPERATE IN A NORMAL MANNER WAS THE DRIVER'S WINDOW. THE DRIVER'S WINDOW WOULD GO UP OR DOWN AS NEEDED WITHOUT ANY PROBLEM. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT HAS AFFECTED MANY HONDA MODELS OF VARIOUS YEARS, INCLUDING MODELS NEWER & OLDER THAT MY 2007 HONDA ACCORD SE. THE ISSUE DOES NOT INVOLVE A WINDOW REGULATOR, NOR WINDOW MOTOR. IT APPEARS TO INVOLVE THE MASTER WINDOW CONTROL AND/OR THE VEHICLE'S ECU (ELECTRONIC CONTROL UNIT) THAT IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE OPERATION OF THE VEHICLE'S WINDOWS. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY HONDA AT NO CHARGE TO OWNERS OF HONDA VEHICLES.

SERVICE BRAKES
MY SON WAS DRIVING MY 2007 HONDA ACCORD SE ON JULY 30, 2015. HE CROSSED THE PARKING LOT OF A COLLEGE CAMPUS. AS HE WAS TURNING INTO ANOTHER PARKING SECTION THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE POWER STEERING LOCKED AND FAILED AND LOST CONTROL HITTING A POLE. I'M DEVASTATED THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS WOULD HAPPEN. I'VE MESSAGED HONDA WITH THIS INFORMATION ALONG WITH PICTURES. I'VE SUBMITTED THE VIN, MILEAGE, AND PICTURES AS THEY REQUESTED. I'M HOPING HONDA LOOKS INTO THIS MATTER. I'VE ALWAYS MAINTAINED MY CAR AND THERE IS NO REASON FOR MULTIPLE FAILURES. I'M LOOKING FOR MY CAR TO BE REPLACED.

AIR BAGS
RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE FOR DRIVER AND PASSENDER AIR BAG INFLATORS, CAMPAIGN #JQ9 / SERVICE BULLETIN #15-040 FROM AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO. I CALLED TO EXPLAIN THAT THE NEAREST DEALER WAS OVER 2 HOURS AWAY AND THE BURDEN WAS EXCESSIVE TO HAVE THE RECALL FULFILLED BY A DEALER. I REQUESTED THAT I BE AUTHORIZED TO HAVE A LOCAL REPAIR FACILITY CORRECT THE DEFICIENCIES. THE REPRESENTATIVE WAS UNWILLING TO PROVIDE MEANINGFUL ASSISTANCE TO FULFILL MY REQUEST. SHE ONLY STATED THAT IF I DIDN'T USE A HONDA DEALER I COULD PAY OUT OF POCKET.

AIR BAGS
I RECEIVED DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL NOTICE. VERY NEXT BUSINESS DAY, I CALLED TWO CLOSE BY HONDA DEALERS TO GET AN APPOINTMENT TO GET THE AIRBAGS FIXED, BUT BOTH SAID THEY DON'T HAVE THE PARTS AVAILABLE TO REPLACE AND, WHILE THEY CAN ORDER IT NOW, IT MIGHT TAKE COUPLE OF WEEKS TO RECEIVE THEM. I AM ASSUMING THEY ARE AWARE OF THESE RECALLS, SO I AM SURPRISED THAT THEY DON'T HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE AND THEY WILL ORDER ONLY WHEN SOMEONE CALLS. AND, I WILL BE DRIVING FOR AT LEAST COUPLE OF WEEKS WITH THE RISK OF HAVING A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG. HONDA NEEDS TO UP THEIR GAME AND HAVE THESE PARTS AVAILABLE ALL THE TIME OR WITHIN A SHORT NOTICE (1-2 DAYS), INSTEAD OF HAVING CUSTOMERS WAIT FOR COUPLE OF WEEKS, THAT'S JUST VERY LONG TIME TO RISK DRIVING.

AIR BAGS
IN MARCH 2015, I RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA (NHTSA RECALL 14V-351) ADVISING ME TO HAVE THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG INFLATOR REPLACED AT MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER AT NO COST. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED HONDA OF DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES TO SCHEDULE A REPLACEMENT OF MY VEHICLE'S INFLATOR. I WAS TOLD BY THEIR SERVICE CENTER THAT THEY WOULD ORDER THE PART AND I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN IT ARRIVED. I CALLED BACK TWO WEEKS LATER AS I HAD NOT RECEIVED A CALL AND THEY SAID THEY WERE STILL WAITING ON THE RECALLED PART TO ARRIVE AND ASSURED ME I WOULD GET A CALL. A MONTH LATER I HAD STILL NOT HEARD ANYTHING, SO I CALLED AGAIN AND WAS AGAIN TOLD THAT I WOULD BE CALLED WHEN THE PART ARRIVED. NOT UNTIL JULY 2015 DID I GET TWO NEW SAFETY RECALL NOTICES FROM HONDA (NHTSA RECALL 15V-320 & 15V370). ONE RECALL WAS FOR THE SAME DRIVER SIDE INFLATOR IN ADDITION TO THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG INFLATOR. I CALLED DIAMOND HONDA OF GLENDALE TO SCHEDULE SERVICE, AND WHILE THE REQUIRED PARTS NEEDED TO BE ORDERED, A SERVICE APPOINTMENT WAS MADE FOR ONE WEEK LATER. IN SHORT, I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FROM HONDA IN MARCH 2015 AND IT TOOK ME CONTACTING TWO DIFFERENT SERVICE CENTERS MULTIPLE TIMES OVER A FOUR MONTH PERIOD TO HAVE THE RECALL APPOINTMENT SCHEDULED. ..

TIRES, TIRES:SIDEWALL
I HAVE HAD THREE COOPER TIRES FAIL ALL CS4 MODELS. THE COMPLAINT IS ALL THE SAME, THE TIRE DEVELOPS A SIDE WALL LEAK AND CRACKS LEADING TO LOW PRESSURE AND TIRE FAILURE. EACH ONE FAILED AT 17K,15K & 22K MILES. IN EACH INSTANCE THE TIRE WAS REPLACED WITH THE SAME MODEL CS4 COOPER TIRE AND REPEATS THE SAME PROBLEM. EACH ONE WAS ON THE FRONT OF THE CAR AND THE OTHER TIRES WHICH ARE NON COOPER TIRES DO NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THE TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE AND I WILL NO LONGER BUY COOPER TIRES.

STRUCTURE:BODY
WHILE MAKING A TURN ONTO A HIGHWAY, OUR HONDA ACCORD HAD COMPLETE AND CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE FRONT BALL JOINT WITH TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING. FRONT AXLE LITERALLY FELL ONTO THE ROADWAY AND FRONT LEFT TIRE WAS PERPENDICULAR TO THE CAR BODY AND KEPT US FROM BOTTOMING OUT. THANKFULLY NO OTHERS CARS IN IMMEDIATE AREA AND WE WERE NOT HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. WE WERE ALSO DRIVING SLOWLY SO NO INJURIES EVEN THOUGH CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO BE CONTROLLED. CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY SAID THIS IS A UNIQUE PROBLEM AND THAT THIS HAS NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THEIR CARS. HOWEVER MANY, MANY INSTANCES DOCUMENTED ON HONDA FORUMS ON THE WEB.

AIR BAGS
FRIDAY MORNING (5/15/2015) AROUND 11:00AM I WAS DRIVING IN INTERSTATE WITH MY BROTHER AS PASSENGER AND MY DAUGHTER AT BACK SEATING ON HER CARSEAT. I FOLLOWED A CAR ABOUT 40FT IN FRONT OF ME WITH THE CRUISING SPEED 70MPH. SUDDENLY I SAW A SMALL TIRE FRAGMENT A SIZE OF XBOX CONTROLLER AND CAREFULLY PASSED IN BETWEEN, SECONDS AFTER THERE WAS A LOUD BANG INSIDE THE CAR I THOUGHT THE TIRE WAS BLOWN OUT. I SLOWED DOWN AND PUT ON HAZARD SIGNAL AND MOVED MY CAR SAFELY ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I NOTICED THE PASSENGER SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAG DEPLOYED. I SAFELY MADE A VISUAL CHECK ON MY TIRE, FRONT BUMPER, ANY UNUSUAL BUT EVERYTHING WAS OKAY. THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT LOCKOUT, SIDE PASSENGER SEAT BLOWN OUT. DRIVING HONDA ACCORD EX-L V6 YEAR: 2007

MY VEHICLE IS NOTED ON HONDA.COM AS POSSIBLY HAVING AN AIRBAG DEFECT. AIRBAGS MADE BY TAKARTA. WHEN I DID A SEARCH ON THE VIN THE STATUS READ: RECALL INCOMPLETE. I'M NOT SURE WHAT THIS MEANS. DO YOU HAVE ANY ADDITIONAL INFORMATION ABOUT THIS RECALL? I HEARD ON CHANNEL 9 NEWS IN WASHINGTON, DC TODAY THAT RECENTLY MORE VEHICLES, IN THE MILLIONS, HAVE BEEN ADDED TO THIS RECALL. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
