2007 Honda Accord complaints

AIR CONDITIONER HAS NEVER WORKED WELL SINCE NEW IN 2007. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE AFTER FALLING ASLEEP. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE CHEST, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 138,000.

THE DRIVER SEAT TO THE 2007 HONDA ACCORD IS INCREDIBLY UNCOMFORTABLE. I BELIEVE IT CAUSES POOR POSTURE AND OCCUPATIONAL INJURIES WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR CONSISTENTLY ON MY DAILY COMMUTE. I COMMUTE A DAILY ROUND TRIP OF 1.5 HOURS. IN 2012 I NOTICED HOW UNCOMFORTABLE THE SEAT WAS BECOMING. I COULD NOT FIND A GOOD POSTURE, AND ULTIMATELY WAS DIAGNOSED WITH MYOFASCIAL TRIGGER POINTS WITH COMORBID SPINAL PAIN AS A RESULT OF DRIVING IN THE CAR. I AM NOT OVERWEIGHT, VERY SLIM ACTUALLY. I HAVE NO OTHER PRE-EXISTING CONDITIONS. MY WIFE ALSO COMPLAINS THAT THE SEAT CAUSES HER BACK PAIN WHEN SHE USES IT TEMPORARILY. THE HEAD REST PROTRUDES AND PUSHES THE HEAD FORWARD INTO A CHIN-TO-CHEST POSITION. THE SIDES OF THE SEAT CUP THE SHOULDERS AND BACK, PUSHING THE SHOULDERS FORWARD AND PROMOTING A SLOUCH OR SIDEWAYS SITTING POSTURE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW. *TR

JUST BOUGHT MY ACCORD IN SEPTEMBER 2013 WITH 105K MILES ON IT.WHEN I TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE I NOTICED THAT THE BRAKES WERE STICKY.WHEN I CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP THEN WHEN I ACCELERATED IT TOOK A SECOND OR TWO FOR THE BRAKES TO RELEASE THEN ACCELERATE AGAIN. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAD JUST REPLACED THE BRAKES AND THAT'S THE REASON WHY THAT IT WAS DOING THAT.SO WITHIN A MONTH LATER I BROUGHT IT IN CAUSE THE PROBLEM NEVER WENT AWAY. THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM AND JUST PUT BRAKE FLUID AND BLEED THE BRAKES.THE CAR RAN A LITTLE BETTER AND THE BRAKES WEREN'T STICKING AS MUCH.TWO MONTHS LATER I HAD TO REPLACE THE BRAKE PADS.BRAKES WERE STILL STICKY.3 MONTHS LATER I HAD TO REPLACE THEM AGAIN.THEN I NOTICED THAT WHEN I WOULD DUE OVER 60 MPH THAT WHEN I WOULD PRESS THE BRAKES THAT THE CAR WOULD SHAKE AND PULL TO THE LEFT.I THEN GOT A ALIMENT AND STILL THE CAR WOULD SHAKE WHEN I WOULD ACCELERATE AND BRAKE.I THEN REPLACED ALL FOUR ROTORS.PROBLEM STOPPED.TWO MONTHS LATER THE CARS LEFT LOWER CONTROL ARM WAS GIVING OUT.HAD TO REPLACE BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT SIDE.ONE MONTH LATER I HEAR THE BRAKES MAKING A LOUD GRINDING NOISE.I HAD TO REPLACE THE PADS AGAIN.I FIND THAT EVERY 2 TO 3 MONTHS I HAVE TO REPLACE MY BRAKES. ALL THIS MONEY BEING SPENT IS NOT FAIR.HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THESE BRAKE SYSTEMS.MY AIRBAG LIGHT AND ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON AND OFF.ALSO MY STEREO LIGHT GOES OFF AND ON .HELP ME PLEASE. *TR

UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION WITH ENGINE STUCK AT FULL THROTTLE.. CONDITIONS AT THE TIME: SNOW ON ROAD; LARGE SNOW BANKS AT SIDES OF ROAD.. I HAD BACKED OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY IN ORDER TO TURN MY CAR AROUND SO AS TO POINT FRONT-OUT.I THEN STARTED TO BACK DOWN THE DRIVEWAY.THE CAR GOT STUCK AGAINST A PILE OF SNOW PART WAY INTO THE DRIVEWAY (WE JUST HAD A SERIES OF LARGE SNOWSTORMS, BUT THE NIGHT WAS CLEAR).I PLACED THE TRANSMISSION IN "'DRIVE"' AND ATTEMPTED TO EXIT THE DRIVEWAY.A WHEEL STATED TO SPIN (I BELIEVE IT WAS THE RIGHT FRONT DRIVEWHEEL), SO I GUNNED THE ENGINE.THE CAR GOT FREE, HEADING TOWARD THE SNOW BANK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OPPOSITE THE DRIVEWAY.I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AND ONTO THE BRAKE, APPLYING FORCE ON THE BRAKE.THE ENGINE REMAINED IN FULL THROTTLE DESPITE MY HAVING MOVED MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AND ONTO THE BRAKE AND MY APPLYING FORCE TO THE BRAKE..THE CAR HAD PROPELLED ITSELF INTO THE SNOW BANK ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD.THE ENGINE REMAINED IN FULL THROTTLE.

I PLACED THE TRANSMISSION INTO "PARK".I THEN TURNED THE IGNITION BACK ON AND STARTED THE ENGINE WITH MY FOOT STILL ON THE BRAKE, AND IMMEDIATELY THE ENGINE WAS AGAIN IN FULL THROTTLE, ALTHOUGH IN "PARK"' -- SO THERE WAS NO MOVEMENT OF THE VEHICLE.I TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AGAIN.I TURNED THE IGNITION BACK ON.

ON JULY 7TH, 2012, I WAS DRIVING SOUTH ON ROUTE 113 NEAR MILFORD, DE WITH MY WIFE AND GOING THE SPEED LIMIT WHEN THE SIDE AIRBAGS IN OUR ACCORD SUDDENLY DEPLOYED FOR NO DISCERNIBLE REASON. WE DID NOT HIT ANYTHING, THE CONDITIONS WERE CLEAR AS WAS THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES IN CLOSE PROXIMITY TO US. IT WAS A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE THAT VERY WELL COULD HAVE RESULTED IN AN ACCIDENT, AND MY WIFE SUSTAINED ABRASIONS TO HER ARM. WE CONTACTED HONDA ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THEY HAD US BRING OUR VEHICLE TO A LOCAL BODY SHOP FOR AN INSPECTION (WE LIVED IN HOBOKEN, NJ AT THE TIME), AFTER WHICH THEY INFORMED US THAT A SENSOR UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE SHOWED SIGNS OF DISTRESS/BEING STRUCK, WHICH TRIGGERED THE DEPLOYMENT OF THE AIRBAGS. WE WERE SKEPTICAL THAT SOMETHING WE COULD NOT/DID NOT FEEL WOULD HAVE CAUSED THIS, BUT AFTER MUCH BACK AND FORTH WITH HONDA, IT WAS CLEAR THAT THE ONLY OPTION WE HAD TO GET OUR VEHICLE FUNCTIONING AGAIN WAS TO FILE AN INSURANCE CLAIM, WHICH WE DID, RESULTING IN OUT-OF-POCKET COSTS TO US IN THE FORM OF OUR DEDUCTIBLE AND OTHER RELATED EXPENSES. GIVEN THE NUMBER OF INSTANCES OF FAULTY AIRBAG DEPLOYMENTS, WITH HONDA BEING ONE OF THE USUAL SUSPECTS, WE WANTED TO FILE A COMPLAINT TO FORMALLY LOG YET ANOTHER INSTANCE. *TR

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION ON SEPTEMBER 2014 REGARDING THE HONDA ACCORD RECALL FOR THE DRIVER FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR. (NHTSA RECALL 14V-351) BECAUSE OF THIS I CONTACTED THE HONDA DEALER BELLA INTERNATIONAL IN SAN JUAN PR ON OCTOBER 22, 2014. I WAS TOLD THAT THE PART WILL ARRIVE WITHIN A MONTH AND A HALF AND THAT I WOULD BE RECEIVING A CALL TO MAKE THE APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR. THAT NEVER HAPPENED. I CALLED THREE MONTHS AND A WEEK LATER ON JANUARY 28, 2015 AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE THEY WERE UNSURE IF THE PART WAS AVAILABLE UNDER THEIR INVENTORY AT THE PONCE DEALER. I WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION FAULT AND THAT I NEED TO WAIT AGAIN FOR AN UNKNOWN PERIOD OF TIME. I ASK IF I COULD CALL THE PONCE DEALER AND THEY GAVE ME THE NAME OF A PERSON THAT APPARENTLY HANDLES THEIR PART INVENTORY. THAT WAS IT. IN ADDITION THEY DID NOT OFFER ANY APPOINTMENT AT OTHER DEALER OR TO CHANGE THE PART TO FIX THE PROBLEM. AGAIN I WAS TOLD THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED LATER TO MAKE THE APPOINTMENT NOTHING MORE. BECAUSE OF THIS I DECIDED TO MAKE A COMPLAINT BECAUSE I DO NOT WANT TO SUFFER ANY INJURIES WHILE I WAIT BECAUSE OF THEIR LACK OF RESPONSIBILITY AND INCOMPETENCE BY THEIR PART. *TR

ON NOVEMBER 3 OR 4, I LEARNED, BASED ON VIN FROM THE NHTSA DATABASE, THAT MY CAR'S AIRBAG IS THE SUBJECT OF AN AUGUST 29, 2014, RECALL. / COMPLAINT - I HAD NOT (AND AS YET STILL HAVE NOT) RECEIVED A NOTICE OF THE RECALL. (NOTE: MY ADDRESS AND CAR'S REGISTRATION ADDRESS HAVE NOT CHANGED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW.) / ON NOVEMBER 4. I CALLED AMERICAN HONDA. SOMEONE SAID I NEEDED TO CALL A LOCAL DEALER. THE PERSON SAID THEY WOULD INFORM PEOPLE IN THEIR ORGANIZATION THAT I HAD NOT RECEIVED A NOTICE. / SAME DAY, I CALLED ANDERSON HONDA (PALO ALTO, CA), THE DEALER FROM WHOM I BOUGHT THE CAR. I GOT AN APPOINTMENT FOR NOVEMBER 12 (WHICH I WAS TOLD WAS THE FIRST AVAILABLE DAY) FOR THE WORK. I WAS TOLD THAT PEOPLE HAD VERIFIED AVAILABILITY OF NEEDED PARTS AND THAT THE WORK MIGHT TAKE A HALF A DAY. / APPROXIMATELY NOVEMBER 10, AMERICAN HONDA CALLED.

A REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME THAT, BASED ON THE VIN, ANDERSON NEEDED TO ORDER A PART AND THAT I COULD RESCHEDULE THE WORK FOR A DAY POSSIBLY AS EARLY AS THE 14TH. I DID NOT HAVE MY CALENDAR WITH ME. I ASKED ABOUT THE POSSIBILITY THE PART WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE. THE PERSON SAID THAT THE PART WOULD BE TIED TO THE VIN AND COULD NOT BE USED FOR ANOTHER CAR. / COMPLAINT - ANDERSON FAILED TO MAKE GOOD ON ITS STATEMENT THAT THE WORK WOULD OCCUR ON THE 12TH. / LATER ON THE 12TH, I CALLED ANDERSON. A PERSON SAID THAT

COMPLIANCE BUSHING TEARING. I SEE THIS ALL OVER THE INTERNET AS A COMMON OCCURRENCE FOR HONDA ACCORDS FOR MORE THAN 10 YEARS. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR RECALL. *TR

I HAVE FILED COMPLAINTS TWICE BEFORE. OUT OF 251 COMPLAINTS(REPORTED BY CONSUMERS WHO KNOW THERE IS SUCH A COMPLAINT MECHANISM), 42 ARE RELATED TO AIRBAG ISSUES. OF THE 42 THERE HAVE BEEN 19 INJURIES REPORTED FOR THE 2007 HONDA ACCORD ALONE, NOT HAVING RESEARCHED OTHER MODELS. FROM 2006 100% OF VEHICLE AIR BAGS HAVE BEEN EQUIPPED WITH THE REQUIRED ADVANCED FRONTAL AIR BAG WHICH SENSORS THE WEIGHT, HEIGHT OF FRONT PASSENGERS ALONG WITH HOW MUCH FORCE AND WHEN AIR BAGS SHOULD DEPLOY. WHY THEN HAS MY FAMILY MEMBER AND I SUFFERED LIFE ALTERING INJURIES IN A MINOR LEFT SIDE (NOT FRONTAL) SCRAPE ACCIDENT? REPAIR TO VEHICLE WAS ONLY $800.00. IS ANYONE READING THESE COMPLAINTS???? IF PEOPLE ARE LUCKY ENOUGH TO NOT HAVE SHRAPNEL THROWN AT THEM, THEY ARE EXPERIENCING COMPLETE FAILURE OF AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY OR AIR BAGS DEPLOYING FROM "POSSIBLY HITTING A ROCK IN THE ROAD" WHILE DRIVING AT 45 TO 65 MPH ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY OR HAVING AIR BAGS SPEW CHEMICALS AND DEPLOYING AT FORCES THAT DO NOT DICTATE THE SITUATION. IN ANY OF THE SITUATIONS PEOPLE ARE GETTING SERIOUSLY INJURED. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS AND INJURIES DOES IT TAKE TO HAVE AUTHORITIES REALIZE THERE IS A MUCH BIGGER PROBLEM GOING ON? *TR

MY CAR AIRBAGS ARE RECALLED AND IT HAS BEEN OVER 90 DAYS AND I HAVE NOT RECEIVED A NEW AIR BAG FROM THE DEALER. *TR

I CALLED O'DONNELL HONDA TO SEE IF MY CAR IS AFFECTED IN THE RECENT RECALL DUE TO AIRBAG ISSUES AND WAS TOLD NHTSA RELEASED THE INFORMATION BEFORE IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RELEASED AND NOT TO TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. I BELIEVE WHERE SAFETY IS CONCERNED IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE TAKEN SERIOUS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THEY HAVE SUMMARILY DISMISSED OTHER CALLERS. THEY WERE NOT HELPFUL TO ME. THEY COULD NOT TELL ME IF MY CAR WAS AFFECTED AND SAID TO JUST WAIT AND SEE IF I GET A LETTER FROM HONDA. I HAVE TRIED TO RESEARCH TO SEE IF MY CAR IS BEING RECALLED AND CAN'T BECAUSE I DON'T KNOW IF I HAVE A 4 CYLINDER OR 6 AND THE DEALER COULDN'T TELL ME!!!!!! *TR

HOW CAN HONDA NOT RECALL ALL TAKATA AIRBAGS? HOW DOES IT MAKE SENSE TO LIMIT THE RECALL TO CARS DRIVEN IN REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY WITH EXTENDED HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS? OTHER REGIONS OF THE COUNTRY HAVE SEASONS WITH EXTENDED HOT AND HUMID CONDITIONS THAT PUT THE OCCUPANTS AT SERIOUS RISK WITH THESE AIRBAGS. *TR

WHILE AT 30 MPH...TRIED TO STOP AT TL, APPLIED BRAKES EVEN WITH 3-4 CAR DISTANCE FROM CAR IN FRONT OF ME. CAR DIDN'T STOP OR REDUCE THE SPEED. APPLIED BRAKES AGAIN?CAR EXHILARATED TO HIGHER SEED. DIDN'T STOP?IT EXHILARATED SEEP AND HIT ON THE BACK SIDE OF CAR IN FRONT OF MY CAR. I DON?T EXPECT TO HAPPEN LIKE THIS AT ALL, EVE WITH SOUND MIND AND DRIVING CAREFULLY ON ROAD SIDE.

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN- I GOT A LETTER IN THE MAIL FOR A RECALL FOR MY 2007 HONDA ACCORD REGARDING MY DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG. I TRIED TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT AND THEY SAID THEY CAN FIT ME IN UNTIL NOVEMBER 15TH. THIS IS HONDA'S FAULT, SO WHY CAN'T THEY FIT ME IN SOONER. WHAT HAPPENS IF I GET A CAR ACCIDENT AND MY AIR BAG DOESN'T WORK ACCORDINGLY? IS THERE SOMETHING THAT YOU CAN DO FOR ME? MY HONDA DEALERSHIP IS IN LAKE WORTH, FLORIDA.

THEY STATED THE CALIPER WAS STICKING ON THE LEFT REAR SIDE AND THAT WAS THE SOUND THAT I WAS HEARING. SO I HAD TO HAVE MY CALIPER REPLACED AND MY BRAKES. SO IT IS NOW AUGUST 2013, THE SAME CALIPER IS STICKING AGAIN. BUT OF COURSE IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY TO HAVE IT REPLACED AGAIN.. THERE HAS TO BE SOMETHING WRONG WITH THIS PICTURE FOR THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM IN A LITTLE MORE A YEARS TIME. *TR

WHEN I HAVE AN ADULT PASSENGER SITTING IN MY 07 ACCORD FRONT PASSENGER SEAT I OCCASIONALLY SEE THE PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT LIT UP. THE PASSENGER IS ABOUT 95 POUNDS AND I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE SUFFICIENT TO KEEP ENSURE AIRBAGS ARE KEPT ALIVE FOR AN GROWN UP ADULT.

I HAD PREVIOUSLY FILED A COMPLAINT 7/31/2013. ID NUMBER: 10532958. DUE TO THE RECENT RECALL OF AIR BAGS HONDA HAD PURCHASED BY A CERTAIN MANUFACTURER AND THE TIME FRAME BEING ALLOWED TO HONDA TO RECTIFY, I FELT THE NEED TO UPDATE MY COMPLAINT. THE IMPACT TO THE CAR IN FROM WAS SO MINIMAL THEY DID NOT HAVE A DENT, OUR AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AT 30-35 MPH, READING OTHER COMPLAINTS, YES THE SOUND WAS HORRIFIC, LIKELY TO HITTING A BRICK WALL, THE SEAT BELT TENSION ROD SNAPPED AT THE IMPACT, MY EYELASHES WERE BURNT AND AT THE TIME I REPORTED THE COMPLAINT I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION THAT I HAD SUFFERED TWO HERNIATE DISC'S FROM THIS. FAR WORSE, ONE DISC HAD HERNIATED SO BADLY IT WAS PRESSING AGAINST MY SPINAL CORD, I WAS AT A 50% RISK OF BECOMING COMPLETELY PARALYZED. I HAD CERVICAL DISC REMOVAL SURGERY. TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS, EITHER EXPLODING WITHOUT CAUSE WITH DEBRIS AND CHEMICAL CAUSING INJURIES AND OR NOT OPERATING AT ALL, PEOPLES LIVES ARE AT STAKE, HONDA SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO TAKE THEIR TIME IN ASSESSING THESE TYPES OF DAMAGES. *TR

WHILE I WAS DRIVING 40-45 MPH I WAS INVOLVED IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHICH CAUSED MY AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. I SUFFERED SEVERE BURNS ON BOTH OF MY HANDS CAUSED BY A POWDERY SUBSTANCE EMITTED FROM THE AIRBAG. *TR

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE HIT BY A DRIVER WHO WENT THRU A RED ARROW. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS HIT ON DRIVERS SIDE FROM THE HEAD LIGHT PAST THE REAR DOOR. BOTH THE WINDOWS WERE BROKEN ON DRIVER'S SIDE THERE WAS GLASS EVERYWHERE, DAMAGE WAS EXTENSIVE. THE DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGERS DUAL-STAGE AIRBAGS, DRIVER'S AND FRONT PASSENGERS SIDE AIRBAGS AND SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOYED. THE SEAT BELT ON PASSENGER SIDE DID NOT TIGHTEN UP WENT PASSENGER WAS THRUST FORWARD. THE MAGNITUDE AND FORCE OF THE CRASH CAUSED ABRUPT JERKING TO OUR HEADS AND NECKS. THE RANGE OF MOTION IN MY NECK IS VERY LIMITED I CANNOT TURN HEAD TO SEE BLIND SPOTS OR BACK OUT OF PARKING SPOTS WHEN DRIVING. WE BOTH HAVE DISC PROBLEMS TO OUR BACK AND NECK CAUSING US DIFFICULTY WHEN WALKING, STANDING OR SITTING AND IN OUR EVERY DAY LIVING. IF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED OUR INJURIES WOULD NOT HAVE BEEN SO EXTENSIVE AND OUR LIVES WOULD BE BETTER.THE CAR WAS REPAIRED USING SOME USED PARTS COSTING $12,000.00 TO REPAIR. I FEEL THIS CAR IS UNSAFE. SIX AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY IN A MAJOR CAR CRASH AND SOMEONE COULD BE DRIVING THIS CAR TODAY. WE BOUGHT THIS HONDA BECAUSE OF ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES BUT THEY FAILED TO WORK. *TR

AFTER A WEEK LONG PERIOD OF HEAVY RAIN, THREE OUT OF FOUR POWER WINDOW SWITCHES ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR FAILED. IT SEEMS LIKE THE 'MASTER POWER WINDOW SWITCH' MAY HAVE SHORTED OUT. ALL WINDOWS EXCEPT THE DRIVER'S WINDOW FAIL TO OPEN NOW FROM ANY WINDOW SWITCH IN THE ENTIRE CAR. AFTER SEARCHING ONLINE, PEOPLE REPORT THIS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN THIS GENERATION OF ACCORDS (2003-2007). HONDA HAS ALSO RECALLED THE HONDA FIT 2007-2008 FOR THIS SAME REASON/PART.

ENGINE MOUNTS ARE CRACKED. WHEN CHECKING THE INTERNET THERE ARE A HIGH NUMBER OF INCIDENTS. THIS HAS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD BE A RECALL TO HAVE THE CRACKED MOUNTS FIXED ! *TR

MY 2007 HONDA ACCORD HAD STARTING PROBLEM, AND THE ENGINE STALLED WHEN I BACKED UP SOMETIMES,ESPECIALLY WHEN IN HOT CONDITION. IT WILL EVENTUALLY STARTED AFTER 3 OR 4 TIME WHEN I TRIED TO STARTED. THE MECHANIC DIDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH STARTER OR BATTERY, BUT I CHANGE IT ANYWAY FOR MY SAFETY; THE PROBLEM STILL THERE. AFTER RESEARCHED ON THE INTERNET, I CHANGED THE IGNITION WITCH; THE PROBLEM SOLVED. HONDA SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS OR DEATHS. MY CAR ENGINE SHUT OFF WHEN I BACKED UP A FEW TIMES NOT IN FORWARD. HOPEFULLY IT WILL NOT HAPPEN IN FORWARD CONDITION TO ANY DRIVERS. *TR

MY 2007 HONDA ACCORD HAS A STARTING PROBLEM. INITIAL DIAGNOSIS TEST LEADS TO FAULTY IGNITION SWITCH AS THE CAUSE. THE CAR DOES NOT START ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT. IT STARTS AFTER TURNING THE KEY FOR MORE THAN 5 TIMES. *JS

3/4 POWER WINDOWS FAILED TO WORK. BECAUSE I WAS OVER MY MILEAGE BY A LITTLE MY EXTRA WARRANTY THAT I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR WOULD NOT PAY TO FIX THIS. I ALSO HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY PEDAL SENSOR, WHICH MY MECHANIC SAID MANY HONDA'S HAVE. THE PEDAL SENSOR COST ME OVER $700 OUT OF POCKET AND THE POWER WINDOW SWITCH COST ME $218. I WONT BE WASTING MY TIME BUYING A HONDA ANYMORE. I KNOW THEY LAST A LONG PERIOD OF TIME AND THIS AND THAT. THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS THE WORST. I AM GOING TO TRY TOYOTA NOW, HOPEFULLY THEY ARE BETTER. I KNOW TOYOTA HAS BEEN IN THE LIMELIGHT LATELY, BUT AT LEAST THEY CAME FORWARD NOT LIKE GM. *TR
