  I WAS IN THE DRIVER SEAT OF MY 2007 HONDA ACCORD WITH A PASSENGER IN THE RIGHT SIDE FRONT SEAT. I WAS TRAVELING IN THE LEFT LANE ON A HIGHWAY (476 SOUTHBOUND IN PENNSYLVANIA, APPROXIMATE MILE MARKER 21) AT 5:30 AM WITH NO CARS TO MY IMMEDIATE FRONT, SIDE OR REAR. WITH NO PROVOCATION, ALL OF THE RIGHT SIDE AIRBAGS WENT OFF, CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE RIGHT EAR OF MY PASSENGER AS WELL AS MYSELF. THERE WAS NO IMPACT WHATSOEVER, AS WELL AS NO POTHOLES OR ROAD DAMAGE AT ALL. THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER AS WELL AS THE COLLISION CENTER (VINART COLLISION, ASSOCIATED WITH LEHIGH VALLEY HONDA) BOTH FOUND NO IMPACT AND NO EXTERNAL REASON WHY THE AIRBAGS WOULD DEPLOY. IF THERE HAD BEEN ANOTHER VEHICLE ON THE ROAD NEAR ME, THIS COULD HAVE VERY EASILY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT AND POSSIBLY MORE SEVERE INJURIES. I HAVE REPORTED IT TO AMERICAN HONDA CORPORATION AND THEY SENT A REPRESENTATIVE TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE. I HAVE YET TO RECEIVE ANY INFORMATION FROM THEM AS TO WHY THIS HAS OCCURRED. *KB

• 12/29/2009· SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC

  I'D LIKE TO REPORT AN ISSUE WITH MY 07 HONDA ACCORD BRAKES WITH 32,642 MILES. AFTER A FEW MILES OF FREEWAY DRIVING (NO STOP AND GO) ALL 4 ROTORS ARE VERY HOT. ANY ROTOR IS TOO HOT TO TOUCH, AND IN FACT, WOULD BLISTER YOUR FINGER. THEY ARE SO HOT THAT THEY SOMETIMES SMELL OF BURNT BRAKE MATERIAL. THESE BRAKE ROTORS ARE EXCESSIVELY HOT WITHOUT VIRTUALLY ANY USAGE OF THE BRAKES. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL CONDITION FOR ANY CAR. I DO NOT USE MY BRAKES EXCESSIVELY, DRIVE ALMOST EXCLUSIVELY FREEWAYS, AND GOT OVER 100,000 MILE ON MY PREVIOUS HONDA'S REAR BRAKES. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER FOR SERVICE UNDER WARRANTY. WHEN I PULLED IN TO THE SERVICE AREA THE SERVICE PERSON CAME RIGHT OUT. I ASKED HIM TO VERIFY THAT THE ROTORS WERE EXTREMELY HOT. HE DID SO. THE REASON I HAD ASKED THE SERVICE PERSON TO VERIFY THE HOT ROTORS WAS SO THAT HE COULD ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT THAT THE ROTORS WERE INDEED HOT BEFORE THE CAR HAD A CHANCE TO COOL DOWN. AFTER 20 MINUTES OR SO THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN HAD THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHECK THE BRAKES. HE SAID THAT THERE WERE NO HOT SPOTS ON THE ROTORS AND THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. OF COURSE THE ROTORS WERE NOT HOT AFTER COOLING DOWN FOR 20 MINUTES. THE SERVICE PERSON ALSO TOLD ME THAT THE REAR PADS WERE CLOSE TO NEEDING REPLACEMENT. NEEDING TO REPLACE THE REAR PADS AFTER 33,000 MILE OF FREEWAY DRIVING IS PREMATURE PAD WEAR. THE ONLY REASON FOR PREMATURE PAD WEAR ON MY BRAKES AFTER 33,000 MILES IS DRAGGING BRAKE PADS. BECAUSE THE BRAKES ARE DRAGGING ALL THE TIME IS THE REASON THAT THE ROTORS ARE EXCESSIVELY HOT AND THE REASON THAT THE PADS ARE PREMATURELY WORN. THIS IS NOT A NORMAL CONDITION FOR ANY CAR. BRAKE ROTORS BEING EXCESSIVELY HOT IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION. ROTORS THAT ARE EXCESSIVELY HOT ALL THE TIME WILL LEAD TO PREMATURE BRAKE FADE IN CONDITIONS WHERE THE BRAKES WOULD BE USED A LOT, LIKE DRIVING DOWNHILL MOUNTAIN GRADES. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

• 12/28/2013· STEERING

  MY ISSUE RELATES TO THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT DEVELOPED OVER TIME, WORSENED, I PAID BOATLOADS OF MONEY OVER TIME, ONLY TO HAVE IT REOCCUR OVER & OVER. I'VE ACTUALLY EXPERIENCED OTHER ISSUES BUT SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AND I'VE PAID GOOD MONEY TO HAVE REPAIRED ON A FEW OCCASIONS, ONLY TO BE BACK AT SQUARE ONE TODAY BARELY ABLE TO STEER THE CAR I'VE DECIDED TO STICK TO THIS ALONE. THIS ISSUE IS PROBABLY AS MUCH AN ISSUE WITH DEFECTIVE POWER STEERING AS IT IS WITH HONDA NOT ADDRESSING MY PROBLEM. IN OTHER WORDS SINCE FROM AROUND 50,000 THRU TODAY THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WHICH THEY ONLY SUGGESTED TO DO ONE SERVICE, THE PROBLEM TEMP WOULD GO AWAY, ONLY TO REAPPEAR SHORTLY THEREAFTER DRAGGING ME BACK IN ALL OVER AGAIN. HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE @ $58,000, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER POWER STEERING PUMP THAT I WAITED TILL 72,000 TO PAY FOR, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER THE RACK & PINION WHICH I PUT OFF TILL 93,000 DUE TO THE COST AND HOW MUCH ALL OF THE OTHER PROBLEMS WERE COSTING ME. TODAY THE CAR HAS 104,000. I HAD ALL WORK DONE BY HONDA UP TO 85,000, BUT HAVE TRIED TO SAVE MONEY AND HAVE HAD SOMEONE ELSE DO THE RACK & PINION AND A FEW OTHER COSTLY ITEMS SINCE. I WENT BACK TO HONDA TODAY FOR THEIR OPINION - NET RESULT - ALL OF THE ABOVE ITEMS HAVE A BAD LEAK AND NEED TO BE DONE ALL OVER AGAIN - $2400 COST! THE OTHER THING I WANT TO ADD IS THE RECALL ON HONDA ACCORDS "HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE" - OF COURSE, THE RECALL WAS NOT UNTIL AFTER I'D ALREADY PAID FOR THE SERVICE - MY CAR'S HOSE WENT BAD & NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR THE SAME REASON AS WHICH ALL OF THE OTHER HONDAS WERE UNDER RECALL FOR (THE HEAT OF THE ENGINE CAUSED IT TO MELT). WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THE RECALL I ANTICIPATED RECEIVING A LETTER IN THE MAIL BUT NEVER DID - THE REASON WAS THAT THE RECALL FOR THE HOSE WAS FOR MANY OTHER MODEL YEARS NOT INCLUDING 2007 (MY CAR YEAR). *TR
