POWER TRAIN
WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT LOW SPEED (10 MPH) AND GETTING BACK UP TO SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY (55MPH SPEED LIMIT), THE VEHICLE LOST THE POWER CONNECTION TO THE WHEELS. THE ENGINE WAS REVVING AS THE GAS PEDAL WAS BEING DEPRESSED, BUT THE CAR WAS SLOWING DOWN. SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO DIFFERENT GEARS (FROM D TO D2, D1) DID NOTHING. THE HIGHWAY WAS 2 LANES AND THERE WAS NOT A LOT OF TRAFFIC, SO LUCKILY THE 2 CARS BEHIND ME WERE ABLE TO BRAKE AND SWITCH LANES AROUND ME WITHOUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT, WHILE I WAS ABLE TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE FROM THE LEFT LANE TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. EVALUATION BY AN ASE CERTIFIED SHOP AT A LUTHER DEALERSHIP REVEALED THAT THE DRIVE SHAFT (DRIVERS SIDE) SNAPPED INTO TWO PIECES AT THE JUNCTION THAT IS INSIDE A RUBBER COMPONENT. THE SHOP DISCLOSED TO ME THAT THERE ARE TWO RECALLS OUT FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE BY HONDA MOTOR COMPANY, BUT MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. THERE ARE TWO SEPARATE RECALLS RELATED TO THIS PROBLEM PER CONSUMER REPORTS. THE 2013 THROUGH 2015 HONDA ACCORD SEDANS ARE PART OF RECALL #20V769. THE 2013-2015 ACURA ILX, 2013 ACURA ILX HYBRID, 2012 HONDA CIVIC HYBRID, AND 2007-2014 HONDA FIT VEHICLES ARE PART OF RECALL #20V770.

ON STARTUP, VEHICLE MAKES LOUD GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM POWER STEERING. VEHICLE IS TOUGH TO TURN LEFT AND RIGHT WHEN IN MOTION. BUBBLES IN POWER STEERING RESERVOIR.

CAR HAS BEEN SITTING SINCE NOV 2020 AND I CHECKED VEHICLE TODAY AND POWER STEERING FLUID IS STILL LEAKING FROM BOTH HOSES. VEHICLE MAKES LOUDER GRINDING NOISE WHEN TURNING AND IS VERY STIFF

SUSPENSION, WHEELS
I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY ROAD/SIDE STREET AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, WHEN I TURNED RIGHT ONTO ANOTHER STREET THE VEHICLE JERKED OR SEIZED SLIGHTLY, COULD NOT CONTROL THE STEERING AND HEARD METAL SCRAPING ON THE ROAD. STOPPED VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY. FRONT PASSENGER SIDE OF TIRE POPPED OFF WAS TURNED AT ABOUT 45 DEGREE ANGLE AND BROKE OFF THE ARM, BALL AND JOINT. THIS OCCURRED ON A RELATIVELY SMOOTH ROAD, NO OBSTACLES IN ROAD. DID NOT HIT A POTHOLE WHEN THIS OCCURRED OR OTHER OBJECT, THE TIRE AND BALL AND JOINT JUST BROKE OFF THE ARM. I BELIEVE IT ALSO DAMAGED THE DRIVE SHAFT.

POWER TRAIN
CAR BEGUN TO BEHAVE STRANGELY, SHIFTING LATE, TOO SOON, RANDOMLY, SO I TOOK IT TO 4 SHOPS HERE IN HOUSTON AND THE COMMON RESOLUTION OR OPINION FROM THE 4 MECHANICS IS THAT THOSE TRANSMISSIONS ARE TOO WEAK FOR THE ENGINE THE COME WITH, SO THEY ADVICE TO STOP DRIVING AND JUNK THE CAR, THAT TRASNMISSION SWAP GOES FOR 2400-4000$ AND I DONT HAVE THAT MONEY. NOW GOING BACK HOME THE CAR STARTED SLIPPING THE 4TH AND 3RD GEAR AND PUT ME IN RISK DUE TO THE FACT THAT I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE TRANSMISSION WENT FROM 4TH OR 5TH TO 2ND WHILE DOING 50MPH TO THE POINT I HAD TO STOP AND GET THE CAR TOWED, I ENDED UP JUNK ING THE CAR. NOW MY QUESTION IS, MY CAR HAD 120.000, NO OTHER RECALL ON TRASNMISSION, ALL MECHANICS KNOW THOSE TRANSMISSIONS ARE WEAK, NISSAN ALTIMAS UP TO 2011 HAD A RECALL ON THEIR REALLY BAD CUT TRANSMISSION AND HONDA DOESN'T, IT WOULD BE NICE IF NHTSA OPENS AN INVESTIGATION ON THIS AND MAKE HONDA REPLACE BAD TRANSMISSIONS OR PAY UP PEOPLE WHO ENDED UP TAKING THE CARS TO A JUNKYARD OR REFUND TRANSMISSION REPLAMENT/REPAIR COSTS.

I CAN'T GET THIS DONE BECAUSE IT WILL TAKE AT LEAST HALF A DAY AT A DEALERSHIP THAT IS ABOUT 45 MILES FROM WHERE I LIVE (AND WORK) AND THEY DON'T OFFER REMOTE REPAIR. FORD DOES, BUT APPARENTLY HONDA DOES NOT, SO I CAN'T GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF. I AM UNABLE TO SPEND HALF OF A WORK DAY IN THE CITY SITTING AT A DEALERSHIP WAITING FOR MY CAR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
FIRST OF ALL I'M REALLY SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THAT HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THE A PCM - ECM POWER RELAY. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. BASICALLY WHILE DRIVING MY CAR IF I HAVE THE HEAT ON THE VEHICLE WILL TURN OFF WHEN I SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A STOP. IF I FLASH MY HIGH BEAMS THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF (WHILE AT A STOP). FINALLY I TOOK MY CAR TO A FRIEND AND THEIR AUTO LINK TESTER READ P0685-ECM- PCM. HE TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID AND HAD TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND THE AGENT THERE INFORM ME THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. NOW FOR 2 MONTHS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE THAT I HAVE OWN FOR OVER 10 YEARS, AND EVERY NOW AND THEN IT TURNS OFF ON ME WHEN I'M AT A RED LIGHT, STOP SIGN AND SOMETIMES WHEN I SLOW DOWN. THERE HAS BEEN 2 TIMES THAT I WAS ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND BECAUSE THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF. FOR YEARS I HAVE ALWAYS PURCHASED HONDA ACCORD BUT WITH THEM NOT OWNING UP TO THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING WITH THEIR VEHICLES AS FAR A SAFETY ISSUE I MIGHT HAVE TO LOOK INTO PURCHASING ANOTHER MAKE AND MODEL WHEN I PURCHASE MY NEXT VEHICLE. HONDA NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THESE MODEL OF ACCORDS SO PEOPLE CAN THEIR VEHICLE INTO A DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEIR ELECTRICAL SOFTWARE UPDATED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE AN INTERMITTENT BUZZING NOISE WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING. IT GETS LOUDER AND MORE OFTEN WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP NAMED O'DONNELL HONDA IN ELLICOTT CITY, MD. THE SUPERVISOR MR. JERRY FURR OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID HE NEVER HEARD OF A DIODE IN THE ALTERNATOR YET I FOUND ON GOOGLE THAT THIS VIDEO SHOWED THAT EXACT PROBLEM. I ALSO CAME IN TO GET MY GLOVE BOX REPAIRED BECAUSE IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. THEY SAID IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE GLOVE BOX. SO, THEY SAID JUST PULL ON THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR OF THE GLOVE BOX AND IT MAY OR MAY NOT OPEN WITH TRIAL AND ERROR. THAT GLOVE BOX WAS PROBABLY DEFECTIVE WHEN IT WAS NEW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM CARMAX IN 2010. THIS PROBLEM WITH THE GLOVEBOX SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED IN 2007 WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW. SO, I SPENT SEVERAL HOURS AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY GAVE ME BACK MY CAR WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING AND THEY CHARGED ME $69. WHAT A WASTE!

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, SUSPENSION
DRIVING HOME FROM AIRPORT AFTER RETURNING HOME LATE AT NIGHT MY CAR RANDOMLY ACCELERATED AND DRIVE LIGHT STARTED BLINKING. CAR THEN DRIVE NORMAL A FEW MORE MIN B4 DOING THIS AGAIN JUMPING ON ITS OWN WHILE ONLY GOING 15 MH UP TO 2 AND 3000TPM. I PULLED OVER TURNED OFF CAR THEN BACK ON. CAR WAS FINE THE NEXT 5 MILE HOME. THE NEXT MORNING I DROVE 15MILES FINE WHEN THE CAR STARTED THIS AGAIN. I PULLED OVER NOTICED SLIGHT SMOKE BUT WAS LESS THAN 1 MILE FROM SAFETY SO I TRIED MAKING IT. THE CAR AGAIN JUMPED AT LOW SPEED UP TO 3000 RPM AND STAYED THERE. BREAKING AND GOING ON IT'S OWN. ONCE I MADE IT TO SAFETY I PARKED CAR. UPON GETTING IT TOWED FOUND THAT MY AXEL CAME UNSEATED DURING THIS AND LOST ALL TRAN FLUID. CAR WOULDN'T GO INTO ANY GEAR. UPON RESEAT OF AXEL AND REPLACE TRAN FLUID CAR SEEMS TO BE OK. AFTER READING ALL THESE OTHER PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR ISSUES I'M THINKING THAT THE AXEL WAS NOT THE ISSUE BUT THE RESULT OF WHATEVER THE REAL ISSUE IS THAT CAUSED IT TO UNSEAT TO BEGIN WITH. IF IT WOULDN'T OF BEEN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND EARLY MORNING I WOULD OF MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE. I'M TERRIFIED OF MY CAR NOW. LUCKILY I WAS ON A NEIGHBORHOOD STREET BOTH TIMES
