2005 Honda Accord complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 35 MPH AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE AIR CONDITIONER ON, SHE NOTICED THAT THE RADIO DID NOT FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED AND REPLACED THE ON-OFF SWITCH BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

HEADLIGHTS HAVE TOP LAYER COMING OFF THE FINISH. THE HEADLIGHT THEN TURNS YELLOW AND THE CLEAR LENS BECOMES CLOUDY. THIS GREATLY REDUCES THE AMOUNT OF LIGHT ON THE ROAD WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. THIS CAUSES INCREASED DANGER OF A CAR HITTING AN ANIMAL OR PEDESTRIAN WHEN DRIVING AT NIGHT. AFTERMARKET LENS CLEANING KITS ONLY OFFER A TEMPORARY FIX. THE ONLY TRUE FIX IS TO REPLACE THE HEADLIGHTS, AT A COST OF ALMOST $1000. THE HEADLIGHTS ARE A SAFETY DEVISE THAT SHOULD LAST THE LIFE OF THE CAR, JUST LIKE A SEAT BELT OR AIR BAG. THIS HEADLIGHT PROBLEM CAN BE FOUND ON EVERY CAR MANUFACTURE, NOT JUST HONDA. CLOUDY HEADLIGHTS SHOULD BE REPLACED AT NO COST.

MY HEADLIGHTS APPEAR TO NOT ILLUMINATE VERY FAR IN THE NIGHT ON THE LOW BEAM. ADDITIONALLY AS A CONTRIBUTING THE OUTER CASING OF THE HEADLIGHTS ARE DULL AND THE PLASTIC APPEARS TO HAVE DETERIORATED. WHILE THE DEALERSHIP I SAW 3 OTHER HONDAS WITH THE SAME CLOUDED OUTER CASINGS. ON THE HWY AT NIGHT I NOTICE NIGHTS ARE NOTICEABLY PROVIDING LESS LIGHT ON THE ROAD - AND I AM NOT COMPARING TO THE NEW STYLE TYPE LIGHTS - JUST REGULAR LIGHTS ON OTHER CARS SHINE WAY FURTHER OUT. THE DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED AT NEARLY $100 EACH I COULD HAVE A BODY SHOP WORK ON THEM. THIS APPEARS TO BE SAFETY HAZARD FROM POORLY DESIGNED MATERIALS USED FOR THE HEADLIGHTS AND IT FEEL HONDA SHOULD REMEDY THIS AS IT IS MAKING MY HEADLIGHT NOT PERFORM AS INTENDED OR EXPECTED. THE DEALERS ATTITUDE ( BEAVERTON HONDA) WAS NOT TO DO ANYTHING BUT THEY DID ACKNOWLEDGE THE DAMAGE VISIBILITY DUE TO THIS AND SAID IT WAS FROM BEING USED OUTSIDE IN WEATHER? IT'S A CAR NOT AN INDOOR HOUSE CAT!

I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT. I WAS DRIVING A HONDA ACCORD 2005 AND WAS REAR ENDED BY A BMW X5. THERE SEEMED TO BE MINOR DAMAGE TO MY REAR BUMPER WITH NO COLLISION FROM THE FRONT. THE NEXT DAY, I STARTED MY CAR TURN ON THE AC AND LET THE CAR COOL DOWN. I STEPPED OUT OF THE CAR AND IN A FEW MINUTES THE DRIVER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA MOTOR SO THEY COULD FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITHT THE CAR, BUT HONDA WANTS 115 DOLLARS TO MAKE A DIANOSTIC WHICH I THINK IS RIDICULOUS. PLEASE ADVICE, I'M DRIVING A CAR WITHOUT AIRBAGS THAT HONDA REFUSES TO EVEN LOOK AT UNLESS I PAY 115 DOLLARS.

TAKATA RECALL I CALL [XXX] ABOUT MY CAR 2005 HONDA ACCORD AND ASK IF MY CAR IS INCLUDED IN THE AIR BAG RECALL AND WAS TOLD NO,, BUT I SEE THAT THE YEAR AND DATES ON THE ABC 13 HOUSTON LINK, SHOW MY CAN IS INCLUDED. HOW DO I GO ABOUT GETTING IT REPLACE? THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

WAS IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE I NEEDED TO QUICKLY STEER OUT OF A SEVERE CRASH SND WAS NOT ABLE TO BECAUSETHE STEERING GOT STUCK. NOTICED PROBLEMS OFF AND ON BUT TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE ASSURED US THERE WAS NO PROBLEN WITH CAR. WE WERE NOT NOTIFIED UNTIL AFTER THE ACCIDENT THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE THIS CERTAIN VEHICLE STEERING AND AIR BAGS . AT THE TIME OF THE ACCIDENT WENT CRASH OCCURED THE AIRBAGS ALSO FAILED TO WORK THE CAME OUT FLAT.

AFTER TAKING MY 05 ACCORD IN FOR THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAG RECALL AND HAVING THEM REPLACED, THE EMPLOYEE AT THE HONDA SERVICE CENTER TOLD ME THAT MY SRS LIGHT IS ON AND IT IS PROBABLY BECAUSE OF THE SENSOR FOR THE HARNESS. THIS LIGHT HAS BEEN COMING ON AND OFF FOR WELL OVER A YEAR, AND RECENTLY HAS JUST STAYED ON AT ALL TIMES. HE TOLD ME IT WOULD COST $130 JUST TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM, AND THEN THE COST OF FIXING IT, IF THIS IS INDEED WHAT IS CAUSING THE LIGHT TO STAY ON. MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE HONDA RECALL FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE, I BELIEVE HONDA SOMEHOW DID NOT TAKE INTO ACCOUNT ALL OF THE VINS THAT ARE EFFECTED BY THIS RECALL. I TALKED TO HONDA AND THEY ARE UNWILLING TO HELP AT ALL. I AM CURRENTLY PREGNANT AND A PETITE WOMAN, THE HIGHEST RISK FACTOR FOR THIS ISSUE IF THE AIRBAGS FAIL TO DEPLOY. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HONDA. WILL BE CONTACTING MY ATTORNEY AFTER DIAGNOSIS IS MADE, ASSUMING DIAGNOSIS IS SPECIFICALLY THE SAME AS THE RECALL.

THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM ON MY 2005 ACCORD SEDAN IS NOT WORKING. THE SCREEN DISPLAYS "CHECK YOUR DISK" BUT IT ALSO AFFECTS THE A/C-HEATER FAN CONTROL, RADIO PRESET STATIONS, CLOCK SETTINGS, STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. THIS TO ME IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME OR SIMILAR ISSUE. MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE LACK OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ADJUST THE FAN ON EITHER A/C OR HEATER, IT SEEMS TO ALL BE CONNECTED TO THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM. PLEASE HELP! THIS NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT AS A SAFETY RECALL, IN CASE OF FOGGY WINDOW I WILL NOT BE ABLE TO INCREASE THE FAN CONTROL. HOW DO I KNOW YOU TOOK MY CONCERN IN CONSIDERATION? ONCE AGAIN, PLEASE HELP!

TAKATA RECALL- I CANNOT GET ANY ANSWERS FROM HONDA AT 1-888-234-2138 REGARDING WHY MY HONDA TAKATA HAS NOT BEEN RECALLED. THEY PUT ME ON HOLD AND NEVER PICK UP AGAIN. IT'S A TOTAL RUN AROUND. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR ANYMORE OR LETTING ANYONE DRIVE IT KNOWING METAL PROJECTILES MAY BLIND ME OR PIERCE MY NECK.WHY IS THERE NOT A TOTAL RECALL OF TAKATA AIRBAGS IN HONDA'S?

MY CAR IS NOT EQUIPPED WITH STABILITY CONTROL, BUT IT DOES HAVE TRACTION CONTROL, WHICH CAN BE DISABLED BY A SWITCH ON THE LEFT END OF THE DASHBOARD. THE TRACTION CONTROL SEEMS TO WORK WELL AT SPEEDS ABOVE 30 MPH, BUT WHEN STARTING OUT, IF THE CAR HITS A SLIPPERY PATCH, INSTEAD OF PULSING THE BRAKES TO KEEP THE WHEELS FROM SPINNING, AS THE CHRYSLER LHS I OWNED PREVIOUSLY DID, IT SIMPLY GIVES UP, CUTTING MOST OF THE ENGINE POWER, LEAVING THE CAR UNABLE TO GO MORE THAN 2 OR 3 MPH. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN CROSSING INTERSECTIONS WITH STOP SIGNS AND CAN EVEN CREATE A HAZARD WHEN THE INTERSECTION IS CONTROLLED BY A STOP LIGHT. IT CAN BE AVOIDED BY DISABLING THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM BEFORE HAND, BUT THE DISABLE BUTTON WON'T WORK IF UNLESS THE CAR IS AT A COMPLETE STOP, CREATING A PANIC SITUATION IF THE SYSTEM KICKS IN UNEXPECTEDLY. NO CAR SHOULD BE ALLOWED ON THE ROAD WITH A SYSTEM LIKE THIS, BUT MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT A NUMBER OF OTHER MAKES EXHIBIT THE SAME BEHAVIOR, POSSIBLY DUE TO A COMMON VENDOR. THERE ARE TRAFFIC DEATHS DUE TO IMPROPERLY TIMED INTERSECTION CROSSINGS EVERY DAY, AND GIVEN THE BEHAVIOR OF SYSTEMS LIKE THIS, I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT NO DEATHS HAVE RESULTED FROM IT. I'VE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO RECOGNIZE THE SYSTEM'S BAD BEHAVIOR AND DISABLE IT MORE OFTEN THAN I WOULD HAVE TO DISABLE A PROPERLY DESIGNED SYSTEM; THE AVERAGE DRIVER SHOULD NOT BE FACED WITH SUCH A BURDEN. PLEASE TAKE ACTION AGAINST ALL OF THE COMPANIES THAT ALLOWED A SYSTEM LIKE THIS

THE HEAD UNIT FAILED MAKING THE ENTIRE CONTROL PANEL DARK. THE ONLY WAY TO REPAIR THIS IS TO HAVE TO PURCHASE AN ENTIRE AUDIO UNIT WHICH DID NOT FAIL. PARTS WERE THE FRONT PANEL FOR $243.44 AND THE HEAD UNIT FOR 900.65 PLUS INSTALLATION COSTS. AS THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE WE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO REPLACE. THE LIGHTS SHOULD NOT FAIL AND THE COST IS EXCESSIVE REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF WORKING PARTS.

I DID NOT FINANCE MY 2005 HONDA; I PAID CASH UPFRONT $18,000+. FROM THE BEGINNING I HAVE BEEN REPORTING TO HONDA THAT THERE IS A "MAJOR" PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKES! I BOUGHT THE CAR IN LATE SEPTEMBER 2005;. WHEN WINTER CAME, I NOTICED THAT MY BRAKES WOULD STALL WHEN IT EXTREME WEATHER(SNOW, HEAVY RAIN, EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER)! DURING THESE POOR WEATHER CONDITIONS, WHEN I PRESS ON THE BRAKES, THE CAR WILL NOT STOP RIGHT AWAY. THERE IS A HEAVY PULSATING NOISE AND FEELING GOING ON, AND THE CAR WILL NOT STOP UNTIL I HAVE PRESSED DOWN ON THE BRAKES AS FAR AS I COULD AND THE CAR HAS CONTINUED MOVING FOR A DISTANCE. OVER THE YEARS, I HAVE REPORTED IT AND HAVE TAKEN IT BACK AND FORTH TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND HAVE BEEN TOLD EACH TIME THAT THEY CAN NOT FIND A PROBLEM! I FEEL AS THOUGH THEY DIDN'T TAKE RESPONSIBILITY BECAUSE I DID NOT FINANCE THE CAR.THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN I THOUGHT THAT I WAS GOING TO DIE, BECAUSE OF THIS CRITICAL BRAKE PROBLEM. TODAY IS MONDAY, JANUARY 11, 2016... THE WEATHER WAS EXTREMELY COLD THIS MORNING (MAYBE AROUND 32 DEGREES), AND THIS SITUATION WITH THESE HONDA MANUFACTURED BRAKES OCCURRED AGAIN. I WAS TERRIFIED WHEN MY I PRESSED DOWN ON THE BRAKES TO STOP FOR A WOMAN PUSHING A BABY CARRIAGE AT A SCHOOL CROSS-WALK! HONDA HAS AVOIDED TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS HIGHLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM FOR FAR TOO LONG, AND MANY PEOPLE HAVE PROBABLY DIED OR BECOME GREATLY INJURED TO PROBLEMS SUCH AS THIS WITH THEIR HONDA VEHICLES! FROM THIS REPORT I AM HOPING FOR AN IMMEDIATE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE FRACTURED WITHOUT WARNING AND THERE WAS AN INTERNAL LEAK FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A STORE TO REFILL THE POWER STEERING FLUID. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO REPLACED THE HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE PROGRESSED AND RECURRED DUE TO THE LOW PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE RANDOMLY LEAKING WITHOUT WARNING YEARS LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 12V222000 (STEERING). THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND CONTACT WAS ABLE TO ORDER THE PART FROM THE DEALER. THE CONTACT WAS WAITING TO RECEIVE THE PART FROM THE DEALER TO BE REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,915....UPDATED 02/04/16 *BF *TR

DRIVER SIDE FRONT AND REAR WHEEL WERE STOLEN WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED INSIDE THE APARTMENT COMMUNITY.

HONDA STRUNG ME A LONG FOR TWO YEARS, RESETTING THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TO CLEAR THE ENGINE LIGHT EACH TIME IT WAS BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE. SINCE THOSE TWO YEARS THE WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED ON MY HYBRID BATTERY, WHICH COST $3500 OR MORE TO REPLACE. IT IS THEIR PRODUCT, AND KNEW THE PROBLEM WAS TO REPLACE THE BATTERY. THEY SCAMMED MY SO NOW IM STUCK WITH A USELESS CAR. THEY WOULD NOT EVEN AGREE TO ASSIST ME IN BUYING ANOTHER ONE.

TAKATA RECALL LIGHT ON DASHBOARD

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.

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 P

I HAVE A HONDA ACCORD V6 2005 MODEL CAR AND MAINTENANCE DONE AS PER MANUALS. 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.

BOUGHT THE CAR NEW, THE CLEAR COAT STARTED TO FLAKE OFF IN MARCH 2015. NOTICE MAY HONDA CARS ABOUT THE SAME AGE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE DRIVER WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH, THE DRIVER CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND BACK INJURIES AND THE DRIVER SUSTAINED SEVERE HEADACHES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 105,000.

OWNER:I HIT A DIP WITH THIS ACCORD 3.0 WITH VTEC ENGINE WAS DRIVING DOWN STREET WHEN CAR MADE FUNNY NOISE AND THE STEERING GOT HARD TO TURN. PULLED OVER AND FOUND POWER STEERING WAS LEAKING. DROVE IT TO SHOP ORDERED HOSE THEN DROPPED HOSE WITH FLUID AT REPAIR SHOP. TECHNICIAN: POWER STEERING HOSE BROKE HARD AND OLD LEAKING FLUID EVERYWHERE CAUSING CERPINTINE BELT COME OFF. THE HARDENED POWER STEERING HOSE BROKE DUE TO FACT THAT BREAKING OF 2 PASSENGER SIDE MOTOR MOUNT TO BRACKET BOLTS IN BRACKET CAUSING ENGINE TO RAISE DURING ACCELERATION AND PULLING ON HOSES. CAR DROVE IN OK. AFTER REPLACING BRACKET AND HOSE NOTICED WATER LEAKING FROM BEHIND TIMING BELT AND REMOVED TOP COVER.

OF COURSE CUSTOMER DOESN'T UNDERSTAND HOW SO MANY THINGS ARE WRONG WHEN ALL HE SAW WAS BROKEN POWER STEERING HOSE.(WHICH WHEN FLUID LEAKS CAN ALSO CATCH CAR ON FIRE) NOW WE SUGGESTED REPLACEMENT OF WATER PUMP AND TIMING KIT BUT CUSTOMER WANTS VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY AND FEELS WE CREATED THESE OTHER PROBLEMS ON PURPOSE WHICH LEFT ME NO CHOICE BUT TO DO LABOR FOR FREE JUST TO PROVE IM NOT! THE LIFT OF ENGINE AND FLUID LEAK CAUSED SEVERA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING FLUID FROM UNDERNEATH. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FLUID WAS LEAKING FROM THE POWER STEERING HOSE AND A CLAMP WAS PLACED ON THE HOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE SEAT BELT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WHEN THE SEAT BELT WAS FASTENED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, BUT THE SEAT BELT FAILED TO RETRACT. THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 180,000.

TAKATA RECALL - TOOK CAR TO MARTIN MAIN LINE HONDA 8/4/15 PER RECALL NOTICE. PARTS NOT AVAILABLE. STILL WAITING BUT NERVOUS. HAVE TO DRIVE ON REGULAR BASIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V370000 (AIR BAGS) AND 15V320000 (AIR BAGS).

THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

AIRBAG SRS LIGHT STAYS ON ALL THE TIME. SOME 2005 HONDA ACCORDS WERE COVERED IN THE HONDA RECALL Q31, BUT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. MY PROBLEM IS EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE Q31 RECALL, BUT HONDA AMERICA REFUSES TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ITEM, IT SHOULD BE REPORTED AS TO THE NHTSA.

I HAVE RECENTLY BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE ISSUES WITH MY HONDA WHERE IT SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE MOVING. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED SOME CLICKING NOISES AND SURGES AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS HAVING ISSUES. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2011 FOR HONDA TO REPLACE THE TCM (TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE); HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL AND I BELIEVE I AM NOW EXPERIENCE THE VERY PROBLEMS THAT THE RECALL FIX WAS TO RESOLVE. I AM SEEING THE VERY COMPLAINT ON YOUR SITE FROM OTHERS WHO ALSO HAVE HONDA ACCORDS FOR THE SAME YEAR OTHERS. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN REGULARLY SERVICED AND THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY INDICATION OF TRANSMISSION ISSUES.

THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AT APPROXIMATELY 70,000 MILES WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL. THE ENGINE BEGAN REVVING, AND THE VEHICLE LOST ALL ACCELERATION. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, I APPLIED THE BRAKES, PUT ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I THEN RESTARTED THE CAR, SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, AND ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE, BUT THE VEHICLE BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS TOWARD TRAFFIC LINED UP BEHIND ME. I THEN REAPPLIED THE BRAKE, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND AGAIN SHUT THE CAR OFF. DUE TO CONSTRUCTION IN THE AREA, THERE WAS NO WHERE TO PULL THE CAR OVER TO, SO I WAS STRANDED BLOCKING TRAFFIC.

WITHOUT NOTICE OR CAUSE THE PASSENGER WINDOW AND BOTH BACK SEAT SEAT WINDOWS STOP RESPONDING TO THE POWER CONTROLS. THIS CAUSED THE THREE WINDOWS TO NOT OPEN, AND HAS BEEN CONSISTENT SINCE IT ORIGINALLY HAPPENED OVER A MONTH AGO.

MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT OF A GROCERY STORE. I WAS ON MY HOME FROM WORK AND HAD STOPPED TO PURCHASE A FEW ITEMS. THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. I HAD BEEN IN THE STORE FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES WHEN I HEARD THE LOUDSPEAKER ASKING FOR THE OWNER OF A 2005 GOLD HONDA ACCORD TO COME TO THE CUSTOMER SERVICE COUNTER. WHEN I APPROACHED THE PERSON BEHIND THE COUNTER, HE ASKED ME TO LOOK OUTSIDE TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE ON FIRE WAS, IN FACT, MY CAR. SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE ENGINE OF MY CAR AND TWO VEHICLES FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WERE TRYING TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. HONDA INSISTED IT WAS MY FAULT, BUT I FOUND OUT MUCH LATER THAT ENGINE FIRES HAD OCCURRED IN OTHER 2005 ACCORDS. STATE FARM GAVE ME THE REPLACEMENT VALUE FOR THE VEHICLE, BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH TO PURCHASE A CAR OF EQUAL VALUE. THE HONDA ACCORD WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I FELT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN COMPENSATED FOR THE ENTIRE COST OF THE CAR. PLUS, IF THE FIRE HAD OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING, I MIGHT NOT BE HERE WRITING THIS LETTER TO YOU. I WAS JUST RECENTLY MADE AWARE OF SOME OF THE RECALLS FROM HONDA FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS PROBLEM AND COMPENSATE ME FAIRLY FOR MY LOSS. I HAVE THE VIN NUMBER AND ALL OF THE PAPERWORK FROM STATE FARM, INCLUDING PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE TO CAR TAKEN AFTER THE FIRE. *TR

I WAS LEAVING A STORE ON HULL ST. AND MY CAR WAS AT ABOUT 40 MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED MOVING AND I FELT THAT IT WAS SOMETHING BAD SO I CUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED MY CAR AND IT STARTED UP NICELY ONCE I SWITCHED GEARS FROM PARK TO REVERSE THE CAR DIDN'T MOVE. SO I WENT TO PUT CAR INTO PARK AND THERE WAS A REALLY LOUD NOISE WHICH SCARED ME CRAZY. I CUT THE CAR BACK OFF AND IT BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARDS IN THE PARK GEAR SO I HAD TO PUT THE CAR EMERGENCY BREAK ON TO KEEP IN PLACE. MONDAY MORNING WHICH I'D TODAY I GET MY CAR TOWED TO AAMCO AND THEY DIAGNOSTIC MY CAR AS A SHAFT FAILURE WHICH HAD BROKEN WHICH CAUSED THE CAR TO MAKE THE LOUD NOISE WHEN PLACED IN THE PARK GEAR AND THE CAR DOESN'T REALIZE WHICH GEAR IT'S IN BECAUSE IT IS BROKEN INSIDE THE TRANSMISSION

I RECENTLY RECEIVED AN AIRBAG NOTICE TO HAVE THE PASSENGER AIR BAG REPLACE AT THE DEALER. I PROMPTLY DELIVERED MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TEXAS HONDA OF AUSTIN, TX. AFTER THE AIR BAG WAS REPLACED AND THEY UPDATED THE COMPUTER, I AM NOW GETTING AN SRS WARNING LIGHT WHICH IS INTERMITTING. AND ACCORDING TO MY MANUAL TAKE IT TO YOUR DEALER. WHEN I REPORTED IT TO THE DEALER THEY ADVISED THAT THE TWO HAD NO RELEVANCE. THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS AND THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

THE SRS LIGHT CAME ON WITHOUT AN ACCIDENT. I HAD THE FAULT CODE READ BEFORE BRINGING THE CAR TO HONDA. THE FAULT CODE WAS A BAD SENSOR ONLY.

GOT INTO A CRASH. LEFT FRONT DRIVER SIDE DAMAGE. NOT DRIVABLE.. AIRBAGS DID NOT GO OFF..

WINDOWS WONT COME DOWN, ITS A ELECTRIC PROBLEM, CERTAIN LIGHTS IN THE CAR NWOULD GO ON AND OFF EXAMPLE TALE LIGHT. TIRE PROBLEMS, AND OTHER STUFF

THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BELT BUCKLE, POSITION SENSOR HARNESS FAILED AND GAVE A AIRBAG FAILURE DISPLAY. REPAIR SHOP OBTAINED TWO ALERT CODES ON THE HONDA ACCORD, E.G. 61-10 AND 71-10. THE HARNESS WAS REPLACED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE AIRBAGS WOULD NOT HAVE WORKED DUE TO A BUCKLE FAILURE. THE TWO CODES PREVIOUSLY NOTED COULD NOT BE IDENTIFIED. THE VEHICLE"S VIN NO. REPORTS NO OUTSTANDING RECALLS, INCLUDING THE RECENT MANUFACTURES AIRBAG PROBLEMS.

I PURCHASED MY HONDA ACCORD EX WITH 7 MILES ON IT, AND NOTICED OVER A YEAR, POSSIBLY LONGER, THAT THE PAINT WAS PEELING. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT IT THEY STATED IT WAS BECAUSE OF EPA LAWS MAKING THE PAINTS LESS EFFECTIVE. I ALSO SPENT THE EXTRA MONEY TO HAVE THE CAR SIMONIZED TO ENSURE THE PAINT WHICH WAS A WASTE OF MONEY.

I'VE OWNED MY 4-DR., 6-CYL. EX MODEL SINCE PURCHASING IT FROM A HONDA PARTS DEPT. EMPLOYEE IN JAN., 2007 WITH 24K MILES ON THE ENGINE. IT HAS PERFORMED GENERALLY VERY WELL UNTIL IT DEVELOPED A SAFETY-RELATED, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM THAT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE SINCE IT FIRST OCCURRED-- NAMELY, THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL HAS BECOME PROGRESSIVELY SOFT WHEN APPLIED, AND RECENTLY HAS TO BE APPLIED STRENUOUSLY ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR TO GET EVEN A MINIMAL STOPPING RESPONSE. WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED, I BEGAN REGULARLY CHECKING THE BRAKE FLUID LEVEL IN MY MASTER CYLINDER. ONLY OCCASIONALLY DID THE CYLINDER REQUIRE SOME MINIMAL, ADDITIONAL BRAKE FLUID--AKIN TO A NORMAL MAINTENANCE AMOUNT. KEEPING MY FLUID TO A MAXIMUM-LEVEL HAS NOT RESOLVED THE PROBLEM. THIS PAST MARCH (2015), I REQUESTED MY WELL-RATED, INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. HE FIRST IDENTIFIED THE SAME 3 EARLIER HONDA SERVICE BULLETINS THAT I HAD (GOING ALL THE WAY BACK TO 2007) THAT ADDRESSED THIS BRAKE PROBLEM, WHEREIN HONDA WAS MOSTLY IMPLICATING A FAULTY ABS (CONTROL) MODULE AS THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM (NOTE: I'VE NEVER RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL SVC. BULLETIN FROM HONDA FOR THIS PROBLEM). MY MECHANIC ESTIMATED THAT REPLACING MY ABS MODULE WOULD COST OVER $2000, BUT THAT EVEN THEN THERE WOULD BE NO GUARANTEE THAT MY PROBLEM WOULD BE RESOLVED. SO, UNTIL I COULD DECIDE WHAT ACTION TO TAKE, I HAD HIM DO A FRONT BRAKE JOB TO "BUY" WHATEVER EXTRA STOPPING-POWER I COULD ... WHICH TURNED OUT TO BE MINIMAL-T
