#706652May 19, 1999
SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:ANTILOCK/TRACTION CONTROL/ELECTRONIC LIMITED SLIP
MY ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM HAS COMPLETELY FAILED, RESULTING IN A $1,300.00 ESTIMATE TO GET THEM REPAIRED. THE REPAIR SHOP ADVISED ME THAT MANY SIMILAR HONDA VEHICLES ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. SINCE NOT MANY OWNERS WOULD BE WILLING TO PAY $1,300.00 TO GET THE ABS REPAIRED, IT RENDERS THE ABS SYSTEM USELESS. AS MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 60,000 MILES, IT APPEARS THIS PROBLEM IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. *AK

SUSPENSION, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:EXHAUST SYSTEM
MY 1995 HONDA ACCORD EX SEDAN HAS HAD AN EXHAUST BUZZ SINCE THE DAY AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW FROM FREELAND HONDA. NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS BY THE DEALER TO CORRECT PROBLEM HAVE FAILED. I WAS TOLD BY HONDA TO "LIVE WITH THE PROBLEM" BECAUSE SOME HONDAS MAKE THIS NOISE AND WE CAN'T FIX IT. IT IS A CONSTANT BUZZ AT 1800 RPM'S. NOW THAT THE VEHICLE IS 4 YEARS OLD, THE "BUZZ" HAS GROWN TO A CONSTANT VIBRATION WHICH CAN BE FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND THE BRAKE PEDAL, AS WELL AS THROUGH THE FLOOR AND SEATS. *AK

WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON, CONSUMER NOTICED HOOD WAS VIBRATING, CONSUMER LEANED FORWARD TO TURN OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL AND APPLIED THE BRAKES, AND THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, CAUSING THE CONSUMER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT FIVE SECONDS. VEHICLE'S WHEELS WERE ON THE GRASS. AFTER INSPECTION AT HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY FOUND AN ONE INCH HOLE IN THE BOTTOM OF THE STEEL PLATE UNDER THE AIR BAG DECELERATION DETECTOR. IT IS BELIEVED A METAL OBJECT HIT THE BOTTOM OF THE CAR AND SET OFF THE AIR BAGS. *AK
