THE COOLANT LINE IS STILL LEAKING BUT NOT AS BAD AS BEFORE.THEY REALLY TRIED HARD WITH EVERY EFFORT TO STOP THE TRANS LEAK.IS IT POSSIBLE THE COOLANT LINE SURFACE IS UNEVEN? THE COOLANT LINE COULD BE DEFECTIVE DUE TO MANUFACTURE PROCESS CAUSING TO LEAK FROM THE SOURCE?

ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH LIGHTS, TRANSMISSION HAS VARIOUS ISSUES AFTER I'VE SPENT OVER $2,000 TRYING TO GET IT FIXED. THE SENSORS GO OUT OR START ACTING UP A SHORT TIME AFTER I'VE REPLACED THEM. THE CAR WILL SHUT OFF AND LEAVE YOU TO GET HIT BECAUSE IT TAKES SECONDS TO MINUTES TO GET STARTED AGAIN. LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF ON THEIR OWN.

TRANSMISSION SEVERELY SLIPS LEAVING DRIVER IN ON COMING TRAFFIC, TRANSMISSION ALSO DOWN SHIFTS VERY HARD. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN CROSSING TRAFFIC,

WHEN I UTILIZE MY MIRROR LIGHTS WHEN I HAVE THE HEADLIGHTS ON.. THE HEAD CIRCUIT WILL SHORT OUT , AND I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO SEE HOW FAST I AM DRIVING IN THE NIGHT WHICH IS A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK PROBLEM.

RIGHT SIDE SUBFRAME BY REAR CONNECTING POINT ROTTED THROUGH WITH HOLES UNDER WHERE RIGHT LOWER CONTROL ARM CONNECTS TO SUBFRAME. MOST LIKELY CAUSED FROM A/C DRAIN DRIPPING DIRECTLY ON SUBFRAME. VEHICLE WILL NOT PASS STATE SAFETY INSPECTION. CONTACTED LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATED THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE.

TRANSMISSION SLIPPAGE AND JERKING WHEN GOING INTO GEAR FROM A PARKED POSITION AS WELL AS IN MOTION. SEVERAL TIMES MY ACCORD WOULD STALL BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT GO INTO GEAR.

THIS COMPLAINT IS NOT IN REGARDS TO SOMETHING THAT CAME WITH THE CAR BUT AN AFTERMARKET PRODUCT. SO IT APPLIES TO ALL CARS. IF THIS DEPARTMENT ONLY DEALS WITH OEM MATERIAL THEN PLEASE FORWARD TO THE CORRECT DEPARTMENT. THE PRODUCT IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION ADDITIVE. ONCE APPLIED IT HAS THE ABILITY AT LEAST IN MY CASE TO STOP A CAR FROM MOVING FORWARD ON A FREEWAY. THE PRODUCT IS MADE BY A COMPANY CALLED XADO USA 1207 REMINGTON RD, SCHAUMBURG, IL 60173 -- 888-787-9236. THE SPECIFIC PRODUCT IS XADO REVITALIZANT EX120 CONDITIONER FOR AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS AND CVT. SUPPOSEDLY THE ACTIVE INGREDIENT IN THIS PRODUCT IS REVITALIZANT . THIS PRODUCT WAS ORIGINALLY MADE FOR THEIR ENGINE OIL ADDITIVE. THE REVITALIZANT IS SUPPOSE TO FILL WORN METAL PARTS IN A INTERNAL COMBUSTION ENGINE WITH A CERAMIC METAL COATING. IF WOULDN'T TAKE A CHEMICAL ENGINEERING KNOWLEDGE THAT THIS PRODUCT IN TRANSMISSION OIL WOULD BE COUNTER PRODUCTIVE. A AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION OR MANUAL TRANSMISSION HAS CLUTCHS WHICH REQUIRES A ROUGH SURFACE TO GRAB AND TRANSMIT POWER TO THE WHEELS. IF THERE IS SLIPPAGE, FRICTION WOULD BE PRODUCED AND HEAT GENERATED INSTEAD. IN MY SPECIFIC INSTANCE THE TRANSMISSION SHOP LIST THE DAMAGE AS ""TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH LINING PEELED CAUSING FILTER TO PLUG RESTRICTING FLOW OF TRANSMISSION FLUID"". AS STATED THIS IS NOT AN OEM PRODUCT. IT'S AN AFTER MARKET PRODUCTS LIKE CHILD SAFETY SEATS. TRUCK RACK ADD ON ETC. I BELIEVE IT IS A DANGEROUS PRODUCT BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE THE SUDDEN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, WHICH WAS A SAFETY CONCERN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED IN 2016 AT CLASSIC HONDA (4000 W COLONIAL DRIVE, ORLANDO, FLORIDA 32808) FOR AN UNKNOWN AIR BAG RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND CASE NUMBER: 04180111 WAS FILED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000.

WHEN I PURCHASED MY 2002 EX HONDA ACCORD IN 2015; I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING A RELIABLE DEPENDABLE CAR. HONDA IS KNOW FOR ITS RELIABILITY BUT LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT THE WHOLE SUB-FRAME (FRONT & BACK WAS FULLY RUSTED). MY SRS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON QUITE OFTEN. THE A/C DRAIN I STRONGLY BELIEVE WAS INSTALLED IMPROPERLY WHICH CAUSES THE SUB-FRAME TO RUST AND CRACK. I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH ONLY 82,358 MILES AND PURCHASED A EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH HONDA DEALERSHIP WHICH MY POWERTRAIN ONLY COVERED UP TO 90,000 MILES. I HAD TAKEN THE CAR FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE WHICH WAS AT 91,000 MILES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I STARTED TO HAVE POWERTRAIN PROBLEMS. EVEN THOUGH ON MY BILL OF SALE IT STATED AS IS HONDA DEALERSHIP KNEW THAT A CUSTOMERS SUCH AS MYSELF WOULD LOOK UNDER THE BODY OF THE CAR. I WENT ONLINE AND HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM I WAS HAVING WITH THIS MODEL & YEAR. ALSO THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY PROBLEM WAS AN ISSUE. WHY IS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT & STATES ALLOWING HONDA TO SELL A CAR WITH IMPROPERLY INSTALLED A/C DRAIN,SUB-FRAME ROTTING & CRACK ISSUES, TRANSMISSION FAILURE, DEFECTIVE SEAT BELT SENSOR. I PRAY THAT NO ONE DIES FROM THIS VEHICLE. 1999-2002 MODELS. I'M A MOTHER OF FOUR WITH A NON-CURABLE DISEASE AND I JUST WANT MY CAR TO BE FULLY REPAIRED AT THE EXPENSE OF HONDA. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND TURNING IS DANGEROUS FOR ME TO BE OPERATING BUT THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. MY MECHANIC HAS TO ME I SHOULDN'T HAVE PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE BUT I DIDN'T RE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL MADE AN ABNORMAL RATTLING SOUND WHILE DRIVING OVER A BUMP AND THE HORN SOUNDED. IN ORDER TO DISENGAGE THE HORN, THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO KNOCK THE MIDDLE OF THE STEERING WHEEL SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PLANET HONDA (2285 ROUTE 22 WEST, UNION, NJ 07083, (908) 964-1600), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 220,000.

THE HEADS ON THIS CAR HAVE TO REPLACED, WE PAID OVER $1,000 A FEW YEARS AGO TO REPLACE THE HEADS IN THE CAR. THIS PAST YEAR THE SAME THING HAPPENED AND IT WAS GOING TO COST OVER $1,000 AGAIN. BUT THIS TIME IT CAUSE THE ENGINE TO LOCK UP. THERE WAS A SMALL LEAK IN THE ENGINE CASING BECAUSE OF THE HEAD IN THE CAR.

THE SUBFRAME HAS RUSTED DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW BY HONDA ... THE AC DRAINS ON IT. THIS CREATES A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE POTENTIAL FOR A FATAL CRASH TO OCCUR.

WHILE BRAKE WORK WAS BEING DONE ON THE 2002 HONDA ACCORD EX, THE MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE ENGINE SUB-FRAME WAS BADLY WORN AND IN DANGER OF COLLAPSE. THE CAR CANNOT BE MOVED SAFELY.

VEHICLE IS HAVING TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. THROWING OUT NUMEROUS TRANSMISSION CODES EVEN AFTER REPLACING SAID PARTS. I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE YEAR AND MODEL. VEHICLE AS IT DRIVES WILL NOT SHIFT FROM 3RD TO 4TH GEAR. AFTER CAR WARMS UP VEHICLE SEEMS TO RUN FINE. SWITCHED OUT ALL SOLENOIDS, PRESSURE SWITCHES AND PCM. VEHICLE STILL HAS PROBLEMS.

TAKATA RECALL: MY TRANSMISSION OF MY VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE A FAULTY PART WAS USED IN THE VEHICLE. THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS AND WILL COST $3,000 TO FIX BECAUSE HONDA USED A BAD PART. HONDA HAS RECALLED TRANSMISSIONS IN HONDA ACCORDS YEARS IN CLOSE PROXIMITY OF THE VEHICLES YEAR. THEY HOWEVER DID NOT DO THIS ONE AND I FEEL LIKE I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR THEIR MISTAKE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS REVERSING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT IMPACT. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT CALLED COLLEGE PARK HONDA AT (301) 441-2900 (9400 BALTIMORE AVE, COLLEGE PARK, MD 20740) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WOULD BE A FEE FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND AIR BAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

TAKATA RECALL;: DURING A HARD SNOWING AND ICY IN THE HIGHWAY DRIVING TO WORK THE ICE MADE ME RAN INTO THE BEGINNING OF THE HIGHWAY EDGE OF THE RARE AND BOTH OF MY AIRBAGS DEPLOYED.

TAKATA RECALL - THE SRS LIGHT IS ON IN MY VEHICLE - THE DEALER WANTS $109 TO TELL ME WHAT THE LIGHT MEANS AND I DON'T HAVE $109.

AC FLUID DRIP SYSTEM ON THE SUBFRAME PASSENGER SIDE AND RUST IT UNTIL IT BREAKS IT'S A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD FOR MANY PEOPLE KIDS INCLUDED IT'S HOW HONDA MADE THE CAR SO THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THE CAR WITH THE MISTAKES THEY'VE MADE MAKING THE CAR AND PLACING THE PARTS IN THOSE SPOTS FOR THAT TO HAPPEN SOMEONE COULD CRASH AND DIE BECAUSE OF THAT THERE ARE TONS OF ARTICALES AND COMPLAINT AND 1.5MILLION + HONDA ACCORDS FROM 99-02 ARE LIKE THIS IT WASN'T CHANGED UNTIL 03 HONDA CAN'T DENY THE MISTAKE THEY'VE MADE BY PUT PARTS IN THE SPOTS FOR THAT TO HAPPEN PEOPLE'S LIVES ARE AT RISK AND THEY DESERVE RECALLS
