VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE, I CAN'T EXCEDE 30 M.P.H. ON LEVEL TERRAIN. MAYBE 15 M.P.H. GOING UP HILLS WITH 4 WAY FLASHERS ACTIVATED. ACCELERATING WITH GAS PEDAL HAS NO EFFECT. DASHBOARD VCS LIGHT IS ON AND ENGINE SYMBOL. PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT AND IF VEHICLE IS OPERATING CORRECTLY, SERVICE TECHNICIAN CAN'T FIND ANY FAULTS. THIS CONDITION IS FRIGHTFUL THIS PROBLEM EXISTS UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS OVER CITY STREETS AND EXPRESSWAYS. I'VE OBSERVED THAT WHEN ENGINE IS IDLING, DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR WILL MAXIMIZE THE R.P.M. TO ONLY 3,000 SEVERAL TIMES, I'VE TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED WITH OPERATION NORMAL BUT DASHBOARD ENGINE SYMBOL INDICATED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SEATS, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
TAKATA RECALL, WE BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR OVER 16,000 AT GORMLEYS AUTOMOTIVE. AFTER GETTING IT HOME THERE WERE CERTAIN REPAIRS THAT WE NEEDED ASAP. THE CAR WAS DEFINITELY IN A PREVIOUS ACCIDENT AS WE COULD SEE WHEN THE PAINT CHIPPED THAT THERE WAS THE ORIGINAL HONDA WHITE UNDERNEATH. THE CAR HAS 3 RECALLS. LIGHTS COME ON THAT DO NOT MAKE SENSE AND EVEN THOUGH WE DIDN'T RECEIVE A MANUAL, I LOOKED THINGS UP ON THE INTERNET. THE ENGINE BELT RUMBLES, THE SUSPENSION IS WAY OFF, THE LEATHER SEATS AND SIDEARMS HAVE RIPPED BECAUSE THEY WERE REPLACED BY CHEAP PARTS. THE CAR LOAN IS FOR 331.00 MONTHLY AND STILL IS OWED A SIGINIFICANT AMOUNT ON. STEWARD FINANCIAL HARASSES WITH PHONE CALLS IF YOU ARE AN HR LATE ON A PAYMENT. UNACCEPTABLE. I AM DISABLED AND CAN BARELY MAKE ENDS MEET. I DO NOT WANT TO PAY FOR A CAR THAT RUNS LIKE A HOOPDEE WHEN ITS SUPPOSED TO RUN LIKE A HONDA. TURNING IT DOES NOT GRAB THE ROAD, STATIONARY THE ENGINE RUMBLES. I AM A FEMALE SO I DO NOT KNOW TO MUCH ABOUT CARS. WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT I CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE REPAIRS DONE ON A CAR WITH SUCH A LARGE AMOUNT OWED ON IT.

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER ON 11/22 IN REGARDS TO AN SRS ECU RECALL AND WAS INFORMED THAT REPAIR WOULD ONLY BE COMPLETED AFTER A UNIT FAILURE. ACCORDING TO THE HONDA RECALL NOTICE THE REPAIR SHOULD BE COMPLETED ON 100% OF EFFECTED VEHICLES AS A PREVENTIVE REPAIR. HONDA STATED PARTS WOULD BE MADE AVAILABLE IN FALL 2016 FOR ALL EFFECTED VEHICLES. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT COMPONENT FOR VEHICLE SAFETY AND DO NOT WANT TO TAKE ANY CHANCES WITH THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY FAMILY.

"TAKATA RECALL" HONDA USA DOES NOT HONOR THE NHTSA 16V-056 (CORROSION OF THE ECU UNIT) AIR BAG RECALL. THEY SAID THEY WOULD SEND A REMEDY LETTER IN THE FALL OF 2016. NEVER RECEIVED THE LETTER, AND CLOSED THEIR RECALL CAMPAIGN. THEY WILL NOT REPLACE THE ECU UNIT UNLESS IT'S CORRODED TO A POINT WHERE A WARNING LIGHT COMES ON. THE WHOLE POINT OF THE NHTSA 16V-056 RECALL IS TO REPLACE THE ECU UNIT, SO NO CORROSION WILL OCCUR IN THE FUTURE. HONDA USA REFUSES TO REPLACE THE ECU UNIT. THEY BULLY THEIR DEALERS NOT TO REPLACE IT TOO. I HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED A BUSINESS THAT IS THIS DECEIVING IN MY LIFE. I' M STUCK WITHOUT ANY PULL OR POWER TO HAVE THEM LIABLE FOR THIS ISSUE. PLEASE ,I BEG YOU , PLEASE HELP ME NHTSA! THERE WAS A LITIGATION THAT WAS SETTLED IN THE PAST REGARDING PREMATURE WEAR ON THE REAR BRAKES. THEY JUST REPLACED ONE SET OF REAR BRAKES PER LITIGATION, BUT THE ACTUAL DEFECT WAS NEVER ADDRESSED AND NEVER FIXED. THE DEFECT IS IN THEIR BRAKING SYSTEM . I'M STILL DRIVING WITH DEFECTIVE BRAKING, WITH EXTREMELY HIGH ANXIETY. HONDA USA DECEIVED NHTSA AND THE CUSTOMERS AGAIN. SEATS ARE SO UNCOMFORTABLE , IT DETRACTS ATTENTION AWAY FROM DRIVING SAFELY ON THE ROAD.
