I WENT TO THE DEALER TO DROP OFF MY CAR EARLIER TODAY TO CHECK ON THE AC PROBLEM AND THE FIRST THING THE SERVICE ADVISOR DID WAS LOOK AT THE CONDENSER AND SHOW ME THE MANY DENTS AND MARKS. HE SAID LIKELY, IT WAS HIT BY A LITTLE PEBBLE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON FOR THE CONDENSER TO BE DAMAGED SMALL FLYING OBJECTS. I ONLY HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 1.5 YEARS.

  I HAVE A HONDA ACCORD 2005 AND HAVE NOTICED THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONTINUES TO LIGHT UP SHOWING THERE IS SOME DEFECT. I COULD NEVER FIND A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE AND THE LIGHT HAVE COME ON FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE WE ARE MILITARY AND NOW WITH THE AIRBAG RECALL ISSUE I HAVE FOUND OUT TALKING WITH THE CORPORATE HONDA DEALER THEY ARE ONLY GETTING THE VEHICLE LOCATION FROM LOCAL DMV OFFICES. THE PROBLEM IS MILITARY REGISTER THEIR CARS IN THEIR HOME STATE, BUT LIVE IN OTHER STATES. SO MY CAR IS IN CA AND HAS ALSO BEEN IN FL AND VA. BECAUSE OF THIS OVERSIGHT, IT APPEARS I HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE RECALL. I CALLED HONDA TO CONFIRM IF THE FAULTY PART IS IN MY VEHICLE, AND HONDA REFUSES TO TELL ME. I HAVE BEEN TOLD "I AM NOT PART OF THE RECALL BECAUSE I AM NOT ON THE LIST". BUT IF I HAVE THE PART, AND SINCE MY CAR HAS BEEN IN A RECALL STATE, I SHOULD BE INCLUDED. IT IS A TOTAL LACK OF COORDINATION AND RECORD KEEPING. THEY REFUSE TO LISTEN AND REFUSE TO ASSIST. I HAVE WARNED THEM I AM PREGNANT WITH TWINS AND NEED TO GET THIS ISSUE RESOLVED FOR SAFETY PURPOSES, BUT THEY REFUSE TO LISTEN. THIS AMOUNTS TO NEGLIGENCE AND I AM NOW WORRIED HONDA DOES NOT CARE ONE BIT FOR MY SAFETY OR THE SAFETY OF MY UNBORN TWINS. *TR

  PASSENGER SIDE POWER WINDOW STOPPED WORKING. MECHANIC I SPOKE TO SAID THE WINDOW REGULATOR IS BROKEN AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. UP UNTIL THE DAY IT BROKE, THE WINDOW WOULD GET STUCK AND NOT ROLL BACK-UP. THIS HAPPENED MANY TIMES UNTIL IT BROKE. THE ISSUE, IN MY OPINION, DIDN'T APPEAR TO BE BECAUSE OF ANY WEATHER. THE CAR WAS NEVER IN AN ACCIDENT, NOR WAS THE PASSENGER WINDOW EVER TAMPERED WITH OR VANDALIZED.

• 12/20/2015· ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,EQUIPMENT

  ALL OF A SUDDEN ONE DAY THE GPS NAVIGATION SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. MY CAR'S MAKE/MODEL USES THE GPS NAVIGATION PANEL TO MANUALLY CHANGE INTERNAL FUNCTIONS, ACCESS THE TRIP COMPUTER, ENTER ADDRESSES, ET CETERA. WITHOUT USE OF THE NAVIGATION PANEL, I HAVE SEVERELY LIMITED ACCESS TO MOST OF MY CAR'S ELECTRONIC FUNCTIONS. THE NAVIGATION GETS STUCK ON THE START-UP SCREEN (SOMETHING THAT LOOKS BLUE/BLACK WITH WORDS 'HONDA'), AND NEVER GETS TO THE SECOND WARNING SCREEN (ORANGE TEXT ON BLACK), WHERE ONE CAN PUSH 'OK ON THE TOUCH SCREEN. WHEN THE WEATHER IS WARMER, SOMETIMES I CAN PUSH THIS OK BUTTON TO GET INTO THE CONTROLS. I USUALLY HAVE 30 SECONDS UNTIL IT FAILS AGAIN. THE FOLLOWING ISSUES ARE PRESENT: 1) CDS; I CANNOT SELECT A CD TO LISTEN TO. I CAN EJECT/PUT CDS IN, BUT I CAN ONLY CHANGE SONGS USING THE CONTROLS ON MY STEERING WHEEL. 2) CLIMATE CONTROL/TEMPERATURE CONTROL: I CANNOT SWITCH FROM THE A/C TO HEAT. I CAN ONLY ADJUST THE TEMPERATURE UP/DOWN, RECIRCULATE AIR, OR TURN ON FRONT/REAR DEFROST. FOR ANY TEMPERATURE SETTING, WHEN I PUSH THE 'OFF' BUTTON, I CANNOT TURN THE SAME SETTING BACK ON WITH THE 'AUTO' BUTTON. IF I PUSH THE 'AUTO' BUTTON, IT RECALLS SOME RANDOM LAST TEMPERATURE SETTINGS, USUALLY A VERY COLD A/C SETTING (WHICH I NEVER PROGRAMMED OR DESIRED). 3) MAPS; I CAN'T ENTER ANY ADDRESSES, THEREFORE, THE NAVIGATION IS USELESS. IF IT MAGICALLY WORKS, IT TURNS OFF SHORTLY AFTER AN ADDRESS IS ENTERED. THE NAVI 'LOCK-UP' SITUATION I DESCRIBED HERE HAS BEEN PRESENT FOR OVER A YEAR OR SO. WEATHER DOES AFFECT IT. MY RESEARCH CONCLUDES THAT MANY OTHER HONDA OWNERS HAD THIS ISSUE. MANY WERE TOLD BY HONDA DIRECTLY THAT HONDA DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS, AND TO CONTACT ALPINE, THE MANUFACTURER OF THE GPS NAVI. MOST CUSTOMERS WHO DID THIS WERE TOLD TO SEND THEIR WHOLE CD/DVD READER UNIT TO ALPINE FOR REPAIR, WHICH COSTS SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS. *TR

I AM NOW GETTING JERKS WHILE ACCELERATING OR AFTER STARTING AND PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE GEAR.THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON NOW. I DID A CODE SCAN AND GETTING CODE P0741. THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH TRANSMISSION POWER. I DID SOME GOOGLE AND FOUND THAT HONDA HAD THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN THIS MODEL AND LOT OF CAR WERE RECALLED FOR THIS REASON. I FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 11V395000 ADDRESSING SIMILAR PROBLEM AND AS OF 23RD SEPTEMBER 2014, 1.5 MILLION (1512107) VEHICLES HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR SIMILAR ISSUE.THE HONDA RECALL NUMBER IS R89 AND THE RECALL WAS PLACED ON AUGUST 27TH 2011, FOR HONDA ACCORDS 2005-2010 FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THIS ISSUE IS TRANSMISSION POWER IS NOT WORKING AS EXPECTED AND IT JERKS WHILE CHANGING GEAR OR SPEED. THIS IS DANGEROUS FROM DRIVING SAFETY POINT OF VIEW. I NEED HELP BY THE NHTSA AS I STRONGLY FEEL THAT MY CASE IS GENUINE AND WITH REFERENCE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 11V395000, MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS RECALL BY AMERICAN HONDA. ON THAT NOTE, I DO HOPE TO RECEIVE A RESOLUTION RESPONSE , IN A TIMELY MANNER, FROM YOUR EXECUTIVE TEAM OR SOMEONE ELSE THAT IS IN A POSITION TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

AS A RESULT, MY PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT LOCKED UP WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID THAT THE ENGINE READ A CODE THAT SAID IT WAS INVOLVED IN REAR COLLISION AND IT WAS NOT. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE SEAT BELT COULD HAVE LOCKED UP BECAUSE THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. SOMEONE WAS SITTING IN THE SEAT AND HAD TO MANEUVER TO GET OUT OF IT. THE DEALERSHIP HAS TOLD ME IT WILL COST $800 AND UP TO REPAIR THE SEAT BELT (AND IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR SEAT BELTS)BUT WHEN I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS NOT ON AT THAT MOMENT SO THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOTHING THEY CAN DO UNLESS IT WAS ON. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP ALSO TOLD ME THAT IF I HAVE A FAULTY AIRBAG THAT MY SEAT BELT MAY CONTINUE TO LOCK UP. I AM HESITANT TO FIX THE SEAT BELT BECAUSE OF THE AIRBAG SITUATION.

  TAKATA RECALL -I AM THE OWNER OF A BEAUTIFUL 2005 HONDA ACCORD EX. I AM THE ORIGINAL AND ONLY OWNER OF MY CAR. MY CAR HAS THIS ISSUE WHERE IT IS BURNING EXCESSIVE OIL AND ENGINE SIEZES. (I MEAN REALLY BAD). I WOULD GET AN OIL CHANGE TODAY AND CAR WOULD BE OUT OF OIL WITHIN 2WEEKS...I'VE SPENT OVER 3000K DOLLARS ON TRYING TO FIGURE WHAT THE PROBLEM WAS AND NO MECHANIC COULD FIGURE IT OUT. I FINALLY WENT TO A SPECIAL MECHANIC WHO FINALLY DID SOME RESEARCH AND FIGURED OUT THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA AND HAVE NOT YET DONE A RECALL FOR THE ISSUE. APPARENTLY BASED ON ARTICLES FROM THE HONDA/BRAMAN AND TAKATA SITES (WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/ACCORD THAT AFTER 80K MILES THE ENGINE BURNS EXCESSIVE OIL IN THE ENGINE. MY CAR TAKES "FULL SYNTHETIC" SO ITS GOTTEN TO BE REALLY EXPENSIVE TO OWN THIS CAR. TO MENTION, THE CAR HAS NO LEAKS, ALL PARTS ARE IN WORKING ORDER. I CALLED AND FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE WEBSITE SINCE JANUARY 2017 AND HAVE NOT HEARD ANYTHING BACK. I WOULD LIKE TO GET THIS ISSUE FIXED AND PUT MY CAR BACK TO NORMAL. THIS ISSUE IS AFFECTING OTHER AREAS OF THE CAR LIKE THE RADIO, THE BACK LIGHTS. I HAVE TO CHECK AND PUT OIL IN THE CAR EVERY COUPLE DAYS SO THAT MY ENGINE DOESNT SEIZE.

• 12/14/2010· SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRIC

  I HAVE A 2005 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID. I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AWAY FROM MY HOME AND HAD TROUBLE PRESSING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD NOT DEPRESS AND I COULD NOT USE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STOP EITHER. THE BRAKE WAS HARD AND SEEMED AS IF IT WAS FROZEN OR STUCK IN PLACE. WHEN I PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LEVER ALL IT DID WAS BEEP AND FLASH THAT I HAD PULLED IT, IT DID NOT SLOW ME DOWN OR STOP ME. I HAD GONE THROUGH 2 STOP SIGNS AT THIS POINT. I FINALLY WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR INTO REVERSE SO THAT THE ENGINE WOULD REV AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD FINALLY DEPRESS. THAT WAS THE ONLY THING THAT WOULD WORK. THE CAR DID NOT GO IN REVERSE BUT IT DID STOP ENOUGH FOR ME TO ACTUALLY USE THE BRAKE. I CALLED HONDA DIRECTLY AND BECAUSE NO COMPLAINTS WERE PREVIOUSLY ISSUED THEY COULD NOT HELP ME. MY LOCAL DEALERS WERE TOO BOOKED UP TO HANDLE THE ISSUE AS WELL. AFTER IT HAPPENING A TOTAL OF 4 TIMES I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET IN TOUCH WITH A MECHANIC WHO WILL BE CHECKING OUT THE VEHICLE. I AM VERY LUCKY THAT THIS DID NOT END UP IN A CRASH OR FATALITY. I HAD MY 3 YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR AND I AM PREGNANT WITH OUR SECOND CHILD. SYSTEMS SHOULD BE IN PLACE TO HELP PEOPLE OUT IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS AND THERE WERE NOT. FOR THIS REASON I WOULD NEVER BUY A HYBRID NOR A HONDA AGAIN. IM HOPING THE MECHANIC I FOUND CAN FIX THE PROBLEM OR ATLEAST FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS BEFORE MYSELF OR SOMEONE ELSE GETS HURT WHEN MY BRAKE PEDAL DECIDES TO FAIL AGAIN. I HAVE TRIED LETTING MY CAR WARM UP BEFORE LEAVING MY HOME TO ENSURE THAT MAY HELP AND IT DOES NOT. IT ACTUALLY MADE IT WORSE AND INSTEAD OF IT ONLY HAPPENING ONCE ON THAT TRIP, IT HAPPENED TWICE. WHEN THE PEDAL IS STUCK I CANNOT STOP, I CAN SLOW DOWN BUT NOT ENOUGH TO STOP. SOMETHING REALLY SHOULD BE DONE ABOUT THIS BEFORE IT HAPPENS TO ANYONE ELSE. *TR
