VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, POWER TRAIN
I BOUGHT THE CAR TO A PERSON WHO SAID THE CAR STARTED THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM YEARS AGO. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS WHEN ACCELERATING AND DECELERATING AND RESPONDS LATE FROM FIST TO SECOND SHIFT. I MADE A RESEARCH AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND I FOUND ON WEB THIS CAR HAD A BULLETIN BUT ONLY TILL 100 MILES AND 7 YEARS, WHICH IS NOT THE CLIENTS FAULT AND IS UNFAIR THEY GAVE LIMITS TO THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM AND THE FIX SHOULD NOT BE LIMITED TO A WARRANTY. *TR

ON SEPTEMBER 16, 2013, MY HUSBAND WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT IN WHICH HE SUFFERED A VISION LOSS. THOUGH IT IS TEMPORARY AND REVERSIBLE, IT HAS COMPLETELY CHANGED OUR LIVES. PER DOCTORS' REPORT, THIS VISION LOSS WAS DIRECT IMPACT OF VIOLENT ROCKING OF HIS HEAD. AFTER ENSURING MY HUSBAND WAS IN A STABILIZED CONDITION AFTER THIS LIFE THREATENING EVENT, I STARTED PUTTING PIECES TOGETHER TO SOLVE THIS PUZZLE. WHEN I LOOKED AT THE PHOTOS OF THE CAR AFTER THE ACCIDENT (POSTED HERE: HTTP://SDRV.MS/1GSAADG), I WAS SHOCKED TO SEE THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED, WHILE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY! WHEN THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED HE WAS WEARING THE SIT BELT (TIED TO THE SEAT BY SEAT BELT, HE WAS TIED ON THE STOMACH AND TO THE CHEST). THAT SEAT BELT MAY HAVE BEEN CRUCIAL IN SAVING HIS LIFE. HOWEVER, THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED. THIS CAUSED VIOLENT ROCKING OF HIS HEAD RESULTING INTO SEVER SIMULTANEOUS HEMORRHAGE OF BOTH EYES AND ULTIMATELY LEADING UP TO TOTAL LOSS OF HIS VISION. I AM CONFIDENT THAT HAD THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED AS EXPECTED, HE WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A MUCH BETTER CONDITION. I TRUSTED HONDA VEHICLES AND PREFERRED THOSE FOR MY YOUNG KIDS. WE SELECTED HONDA FOR ITS COMMITMENT TO SAFETY, RELIABILITY AND QUALITY. HOWEVER, THIS AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT MALFUNCTION IS LEAVING TROUBLING THOUGHTS WITH ME, MY HUSBAND, MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS. WE DO NOT WANT TO SEE ANY OTHER PERSON RELIVING SUCH A TRAUMATIC EXPERIENCE. THEREFORE, I WOULD LIKE HONDA MOTOR COMPANY TO LOOK INTO THIS ASPECT AND CHECK OUR CAR TO FIND OUT ANY DEFECTS OF MALFUNCTION IN AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
OBVIOUSLY, MOTOR VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS ARE ESSENTIAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT. THE HEADLIGHT LENSES IN ALL CARS BECOME CLOUDED OVER TIME REGARDLESS OF MAINTENCE OR BRAND OF VEHICLE. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD AS LIGHT FROM THE HEADLIGHTS IS GREATLY REDUCED. REPLACEMENT ON MY CAR IS APPROX. $400 PER LENS. THIS IS PERFECTLY AVOIDABLE BY USING BETTER MATERIALS. AUTO MANUFACTURERS SHOULD BE MADE TO REPLACE THEM AT THEIR COST, AND USE PROPER MATERIALS IN ALL NEW CARS MANUFACTURED. I AM STUNNED THAT NO REGULATING BODY HAS DONE THEIR JOB IN ADDRESSING AND CORRECTING THIS SERIOUS ISSUE.

STRUCTURE:BODY
I BROUGHT MY 2001 HONDA ACCORD, WHICH IS IN PRISTINE CONDITION, WITH 158,000 MILES IN TO MY MECHANIC. CLUNKING NOISE IN THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER AREA...FIGURED IT TO BE BAD SWAY BARS, CV JOINTS ETC, SO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. I GET A CALL LATER THAT DAY TO HEAR IT IS A MAJOR SUBFRAME RUSTING ISSUE AND THAT THE FRAME CONNECTION TO THE BODY IS BROKEN AND THE SUBFRAME ITSELF IS IN MUTIPLE PIECES. HE TELLS ME YOU HAVE TO SEE THIS...TOOK PICTURES...DOCUMENTED THE PROBLEM. I TOO DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR AND THAT HONDA RECOGNIZES THIS BUT FAILS TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THE AIR CONDITION DRAIN IS POSITIONED SO THAT IT IS CONSTANTLY DRIPPING ON TO THAT PART OF THE SUB FRAME. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND I WAS ADVISED NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL I HAD THE PART REPLACED. HONDA NEEDS TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SEVERELY HURT AND THIS TURNS INTO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT.

ON-COMING VEHICLE CROSSED CENTER LINE HITTING RIGHT FRONT OF HONDA ACCORD. BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. HOWEVER, THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR RUPTURED AND PROPELLED THE METAL DISK INTO THE DRIVER'S HEAD, FRACTURING HER SKULL. THE VEHICLE MAY HAVE BEEN SUBJECT TO NHTSA RECALL CAMPAIGNS 08V593, 09V259 AND 11V260 BUT NEVER REPAIRED. THE HONDA WAS BOUGHT USED IN EARLY 2012. HONDA WAS NOTIFIED AND SETTLED PRE-SUIT WITH INJURED DRIVER. INFORMATION SUPPLIED BY LEGAL COUNSEL FOR INJURED DRIVER.

I OWN A 2001 ACCORD V6 WITH A LITTLE OVER 136,000 MILES. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER CAR HAD BEEN HESITATING AND SLIPPING WHEN CHANGING GEARS. ALSO WAS PULLING WHEN GOING AROUND CORNERS (ALMOST FELT LIKE BRAKING AUTOMATICALLY). TOOK THE CAR IN, AND INITIALLY THERE WAS A CODE FOR IACV (IDLE AIR CONTROL VALVE). AUTO SHOP FLUSHED THE SYSTEM, RESET CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE NEXT DAY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. BROUGHT IT IN AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND IT'S A CODE P0740 FOR TCC (TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH) SOLENOID VALVE CIRCUIT MALFUNCTION. WAS TOLD IT'S THE TRANSMISSION, WHICH APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING QUITE FREQUENTLY - AND CONVENIENTLY AFTER THE 100,000 WARRANTY EXTENSION WAS GRANTED. FEELS UNSAFE DRIVING THE CAR, NOT KNOWING IF/WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING TO FAIL, SO NOW I'M FORCED TO SPEND $2000 GETTING THE TRANSMISSION REBUILT. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
MY TRANSMISSION STARTED SHOWING SIGNS OF SLIPPAGE THAT CAUSED THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT TO BLINK AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO GO ON AFTER HEADING DOWN A SIDE STREET LEAVING MY OFFICE FOR THE DAY. THE NEXT MORNING I DROVE TO SERVICE CENTER AND THEY SAID TRANSMISSION HAD FAILED. THIS IS IN ALIGNMENT WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS (AND APPARENT LAW SUIT FROM 2006) INVOLVING 2001 ACCORDS. HONDA WILL NOT HONOR PARTICIPATING IN THE COST TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION DUE TO CONSTRAINTS OF LAWSUIT EVEN THOUGH THERE IS PRECEDENT OF GOODWILL REPAIR GESTURES THAT HAVE EXTENDED BEYOND THE SUIT (TO WHICH I DID NOT OPT IN TO PARTICIPATE). I HAVE NOT OPTED TO REPAIR THE CAR AS OF YET DUE TO THE COST. *TR

ENGINE, AIR BAGS, POWER TRAIN
THE TRANSMISSION IN MY HONDA ACCORD 2001 HAS BEEN FAULTY FOR AT LEAST 2 YEARS NOW. THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION BUT THE RECALL EXPIRED ACCORDING TO HONDA. THERE IS NO OPTION BUT TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION IF IT BLOWS AND THAT'S BASICALLY WHAT I'M WAITING FOR. HONDA HAS NOT GUARANTEED THAT IF THE TRANSMISSION IS FIXED, IT WILL NOT HAPPEN AGAIN. I TOOK MY CAR INTO A HONDA DEALERSHIP TWICE FOR AIRBAG RECALLS AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS STILL LIT ON MY DASHBOARD. OVERALL, I FEEL AS IF THESE ISSUES ARE SAFETY HAZARDS AND I FEEL STUCK IN A HORRIBLE SITUATION WITH NO HELP FROM THE MANUFACTURE. *TR

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND I WAS INFORMED THAT I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. I WAS TOLD THIS MAY BE COVERED UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT HONDA ISSUED DUE TO THIS VERY COMMON TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. HONDA INFORMED ME THAT THIS WARRANTY IS EXPIRED, AND OFFERED ME A USED TRANSMISSION WITH 64,000 MILES ON IT, AND A 12,000 MILE OR 1 YEAR WARRANTY WHICH EVER COMES FIRST FOR $3,250. HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS FAULTY TRANSMISSION BECAUSE THEIR WARRANTY EXTENSION HAS LEFT PEOPLE LIKE ME WITH A VEHICLE THAT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND A MINIMUM $3,250 REPAIR.THE OFFER FOR THIS USED TRANSMISSION IS A JOKE BECAUSE IT'S THE SAME TRANSMISSION THAT I CURRENTLY HAVE, SO WHAT HAPPENS IF IT TO FAILS NOT EVEN A YEAR AND A HALF FROM THE DATE I PURCHASED IT. TRANSMISSIONS THAT HAVE BEEN TAKEN VERY WELL CARE OF (THIS CAR WAS PREVIOUSLY OWNED BY A MECHANIC) DO NOT FAIL JUST BEFORE THEY REACH 75,000 MILES. HONDA NEEDS TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY, AND ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS TRANSMISSION. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:HORN
HORN FUNCTIONS INTERMITTENTLY. WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AHEAD (NORMAL HIGHWAY DRIVING), HORN DOES NOT WORK. ISOLATED THE MALFUNCTION AND FOUND THAT THE STEERING SHAFT IS ONLY INTERMITTENTLY GROUNDED, AND THE HORN REQUIRES THAT GROUND IN ORDER TO FUNCTION. THE HORN (AND THE STEERING SHAFT GROUND) OPERATES PERFECTLY WHEN THE KEY IS REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION SWITCH. IT APPEARS THAT SOMETHING IN THE IGNITION SWITCH IS CAUSING THE LOSS OF GROUND. THE FAILURE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED AS OF YET. *TR

THE TECHNICIAN STATED A LEVER LOCATED IN THE TRANSMISSION WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED IN ORDER TO PREVENT THE FAILURE FROM RECURRING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

POWER TRAIN, AIR BAGS
TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND CLUNKS WHEN SHIFTING FROM FIRST TO SECOND GEAR. SRS LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON DASH. SIDE AIRBAG LIGHT ILLUMINATES INTERMITTENTLY. *TR THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON THE DASH, STATING IT HAD TURNED OFF. THE CONSUMER STATED HE DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT AT FIRST, BUT THEN HE NOTICED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PRESSED HARD TO THE FLOOR A EVEN RELATIVELY LOW SPEEDS, THE BRAKES DIDN'T RESPOND AS THEY HOSULD.; BASICALLY THE BRAKES WERE NOT EFFECGTIVE WHEN HAVING TO STOP SUDDENLY. THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE STAYING ON ALL THE TIME, AS HE WAS DRIVING, BUT WOULD GO OUT, WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS PRESSED. ALSO, WHEN THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH AND THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT ENGAGE. THE REPAIR SHOP FOUND A CAODE OF C0277 BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR DEFECTIVE. THEY REPLACED THE BRAKE PEDAL SENSOR. WITHIN A COUPLE OF DAYS, AFTER THE REPAIR, THE PROBLEM OCCURRED AGAIN, WHICH THEN RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED, AND THE PERSON IN FRONT OF HIM STOPPED SUDDENLY AND HE STATED HE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ABLE TO STOP, BUT THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED AND HE REAR ENDED ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER RETURNED TO THE REPAIR SHOP, TO SEE WHY THE BRAKE LIGHTS WERE STAYING ON. THE REPIAR SHOP FOUND A BAD BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH. THEY REPLACED THE SWITCH AND RECALIBRATED THE BRAKE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR. THEY ALSO FOUND AN INTERNAL FAULT WITHIN THE CONTROL MODULE AND REPLACED IT. AFTER HE LEFT THE REPAIR SHOP, ABOUT A MILE DOWN THE ROAD, THE PROBLEM HAPPENED AGAIN. THE REPAIR SHOP FOUND A A BAD CONNECTION FROM THE EBCM TO THE BRAKE LIGHT SWITCH.

THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL RECALLS FOR DIFFERENT HONDA VEHICLES WITH THIS PROBLEM: THE MECHANISM THAT LOCKS THE KEY IN THE IGNITION WHILE THE VEHICLES ARE IN GEAR CAN WEAR OUT. WHEN THAT HAPPENS, DRIVERS ARE ABLE TO REMOVE KEYS WITHOUT SHIFTING INTO PARK. I CAN TAKE THE KEY OUT WITHOUT THE CAR BEING IN PARK. THERE HAVE BEEN NO INJURIES TO DATE. I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO MAKE SURE THAT I PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON EVERYTIME I PARK MY CAR. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING WITH MY CAR FOR SEVERAL YEARS, BUT IT HAS NEVER BEEN INCLUDED IN A RECALL. I AM NOT SURE WHEN IT STARTED OR WHAT THE MILEAGE OF THE CAR WAS WHEN IT STARTED. I CALLED HONDA TODAY WHEN I SAW THE LATEST RECALL TO SEE IF THEY WOULD FIX MY CAR OR IF I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE GETS HURT OR DIES AND THEY SAY TO CONTACT YOU BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT JUST INCLUDE MY CAR IN THE RECALL. *TR

ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS PRIOR TO AUGUST, 2010, I HAVE PARKED THE VEHICLE, EXITED THE VEHICLE, LOCKED THE DOORS AND RETURNED FROM MY ERRAND, ONLY TO FIND THAT THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN LEFT IN GEAR. NOTHING HAPPENED ON THE FIRST SEVERAL OCCASIONS BUT THEN IN 2010, THERE WAS A RECALL ON CERTAIN HONDAS FOR THE SAME PROBLEM I HAD EXPERIENCED. THE KEYS ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO COME OUT OF THE VEHICLE IF IT IS LEFT IN GEAR. AT THE POINT OF THAT RECALL, I CONTACTED HONDA (2010) BUT THEY TOLD ME MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL, AND IF THERE EVER WAS A RECALL ON THAT ISSUE, I WOULD BE NOTIFIED. FAST FORWARD TO THURSDAY, DECEMBER 6, WHEN THERE WAS ANOTHER OCCURRENCE, THIS TIME MUCH MORE SERIOUS. I WAS IN A PARKING LOT, GOT OUT OF MY CAR, LOCKED THE CAR AND STARTED WALKING AWAY. I THEN NOTICED THE VEHICLE ROLLING FORWARD TOWARDS THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I GOT BETWEEN MY VEHICLE AND THE OTHER VEHICLE AND TRIED TO STOP IT AND WAS INJURED IN THE PROCESS (ONLY BRUISES, THOUGH). THE CAR HIT THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. NOW I SEE THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON SOME OTHER HONDAS FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT MINE IS STILL NOT INCLUDED. THIS IS A CONTINUING PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE RECOGNIZED BY HONDA, ESPECIALLY SINCE IT'S OBVIOUS IT'S OCCURRED IN MANY OTHER HONDAS. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT MY VEHICLE AND IT IS LIKELY ANOTHER INCIDENT WILL OCCUR AND ONE DAY, IT MAY HIT A CHILD IN A PARKING LOT! *TR
