SEATS
THE DRIVERS SEAT IS LOOSE. IT ROCKS BACK AND FORTH WHEN DRIVING AND WHEN STILL. IT IS NOT SOLIDLY INSTALLED AND CAN BE SHAKEN TO THE POINT WHERE IT LOOKS LIKE THE SEAT CAN ACTUALLY DETACH FROM ITS MOUNTING. THIS IS DEFINITELY A DEFECT BECAUSE THERE ARE MANY OTHER PEOPLE WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THESE SAME SYMPTOMS IN THEIR 2002 HONDA CR-VS.

SEATS
MY 2002 HONDA CRV'S FRONT DRIVERS SEAT HAS BEEN ROCKING OR MOVING SLIGHTLY AS I DRIVE AROUND. I WENT TO GET MY CRV INSPECTED IN VIRGINIA AS IS REQUIRED EVERY YEAR, BUT WAS REJECTED. HE SAID THE SEAT HAS TO BE FIXED, IT ROCKS. IT SEEMS TO ME IF IT FAILED TO PASS THE VIRGINIA STATE INSPECTION, THEN IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. I WENT ON THE HONDA OWNERS CLUB FORUM AND SAW THAT OTHER OWNERS HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I CALLED THE HONDA RECALL CENTER, BUT THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALLS NOR CAMPAIGNS REGARDING LOOSE/ROCKING DRIVER SEATS. IT MUST BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF IT FAILED THE STATE INSPECTION. I'D LIKE FOR HONDA TO FIX MY SEAT SO IT DOES NOT ROCK WITH OUT CHARGE. I HAVE OWNED HONDAS FOR ABOUT 25 YEARS, NOW.

"TAKATA RECALL" MY HONDA-CRV WAS HIT BEHIND BY A YOUNG LADY IN NOVEMBER 2016. SHE ADMITTED HER FAULT AND HER INSURANCE COMPANY PAID FOR THE REPAIR TO THE GARAGE.THE REAR BUMPER WAS SEVERELY DENTED AND IT CREATED SOME OTHER MECHANICAL PROBLEMS AND THE GARAGE OWNER FIXED THEM.I DO NOT HAVE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT IT. EMPHATICALLY, I SHOULD SAY: # 1. WHEN THIS ACCIDENT TOOK PLACE THE AIR-BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. IT IS A BIG QUESTION ? # 2. THE GARAGE OWNER, DURING THE REPAIR DAYS ASKED ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER GARAGE WHO DID THE 'WHEEL ALIGNMENTS." ONE OF THE PERSONS THERE TOLD ME " THE EXCEL IS NOT GOOD/DEFECTIVE AND NEED TO BE FIXED OR REPLACED... SOMETHING LIKE THAT AS FAR AS I CAN REMEMBER." I SAID THAT I CAN NOT AFFORD TO DO THAT NOW AND I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK.I TOLD ABOUT IT TO MY GARAGE OWNER. HE INSPECTED IT AND SAID " CAN NOT SEE SUCH A THING, BUT WILL SEE LATER." SINCE THEN, I USE THE CAR WITH SUSPICIOUS AND SCARE TO DRIVE FAR AWAY PLACES. NEVER DRIVE ON FREE-WAYS. # 3. I GOT A DASH BOARD WARNING IN SEPTEMBER THIS YEAR. THE GARAGE OWNER SAID THAT ENGINE OIL NEED TO BE CHANGED AND I DID SO ON 09.26.2017. BUT STILL THE LIGHT IS ON ? I THINK IT SAYS " MAINTENANCE REQUIRED." WHY IS THE LIGHT IS ON EVEN AFTER OIL CHANGE IS DONE ? I DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE EVERYDAY AS I CAN NOT AFFORD GAS MONEY. WE ARE STATE BENEFICIARIES AND THE STATE HAS CATEGORIZED US AS LOW INCOME FAMILY. MYSELF AND THREE FAMILY MEMBERS MOST OF THE TIME TRAVEL BY BUS. THEREFORE, I CAN NOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR REPAIRS AND KINDLY HELP ME TO FIX THESE ISSUES AT AN EARLY DATE. THANK YOU.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES. AS I DROVE ALONG I-575 - A 4-LANE HIGHWAY - I NOTICED A KIND OF POWER SURGE FROM MY ENGINE. MY SPEEDOMETER REGISTERED 80 MPH! I APPLIED THE BRAKES BUT WAS UNABLE TO SLOW THE CAR MORE THAN 20-30 MPH, AND THEN IT STARTED TO CREEP BACK UP. I EXITED AT THAT POINT, KNOWING I NEEDED HELP. I WAS STILL GOING MUCH TOO FAST. I LOOKED FOR A SERVICE STATION AND NOT ONLY WAS THERE NONE, WITHIN SECONDS I WAS FACED WITH A RED LIGHT WITH 4 LANES OF CROSS TRAFFIC (GEORGE BUSBY PARKWAY) - I COULDN'T STOP THE CAR! SO I TOOK IT OFF THE ROAD IN A CONTROLLED CRASH, GOING OVER THE CURB, 6 OR SO FEET OF GRASS, A HUGE HEDGE, AND CRASHED INTO A VERY TALL, MATURE CRAPE MYRTLE. THANK GOD THE CAR FINALLY STOPPED. I WAS FORTUNATE THE CRAPE MYRTLE CONSISTED OF MULTIPLE TRUNKS RATHER THAN BEING AN OAK OR SIMILAR. THE CRAPE MYRTLE MANAGED TO DISSIPATE THE IMPACT OF MY CAR AND I ONLY SUSTAINED A BROKEN WRIST. THE AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY. MY INSURANCE COMPANY IS CHARGING ME WITH DRIVING OUT OF CONTROL!!!!

AIR BAGS
I WAS INVOLVED IN AN INCIDENT WHERE A VEHICLE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND I HIT THEM. THE DAMAGE TO DRIVER SIDE FRONT END DAMAGE IS SUCH THAT I AM UNABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR OR DRIVE THE VEHICLE SAFELY WITHOUT REPAIR. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE AIRBAG SYSTEM FAILED TO DEPLOY. I DID TAKE MY VEHICLE IN FOR THE SAFETY RECALL AIRBAG REPLACEMENTS WHEN NOTIFIED.
