TAKATA RECALL AS PART OF THE AIRBAG THINK MY CAR IS ONE OF THE RECALLS HONDA GARAGE IN GREENFIELD MASS. COULD NOT TELL ME. ALSO BROUGHT MY CAR TODAY TO HAVE IT TEST DRIVE BECAUSE FEEL LIKE THE FRONT IN HAS PROBLEMS WITH NOISE AN VIBRATION FEELING THEY TEST DROVE IT SAID LOOKED AT IT IN THE GARAGE AN TOLD ME IT LOOKED FINE I JUST DONT FEEL LIKE IT DRIVES LIKE IT DID BEFORE JUST WANT TO SEND THIS AS BACK UP BECAUSE IF IT BRAKES OR ENDS UP BACK IN WANT TO MAKE IT KNOWN AN WORRIED ABOUT THE AIRBAGS.

PURCHASED MY ACCORD NEW OFF THE LOT.1ST PROBLEM CAME EXACTLY 1 MONTH LATER 2 SENSORS HAD TO BE REPLACED. OIL LIGHT CONSISTENTLY STAYED ON I WAS HAVING TO CHANGE OR ADD OIL ALL THE TIME. IVE BEEN TO EVERY HONDA DEALER IN SAN DIEGO. MISSION VALLEY FINALLY AGREED TO A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST BUT THEY ASSURED ME NOTHING WAS WRONG. THEIR SOLUTION WAS ANYTIME I NEEDED OIL I COULD STOP BY ANY HONDA DEALERSHIP & THEY WOULD BE HAPPY TO TOP IT OFF FOR ME. BECAUSE OF THIS OIL PROBLEM & THE SENSOR CONSISTENTLY STAYING ON THE CAR BEGAN TO LOSE POWER & SHOT OUT THE TIMING BELT. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN MY DRIVEWAY SINCE LAST JULY2015. AFTER SENDING HONDA NUMEROUS LETTERS RON FROM HONDA MOTOR CO FINALLY CONTACTED ME. FINAL RESULT HIS RECOMMENDATION WAS TO TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR ANOTHER OIL CONSUMPTION TEST TO BE DONE & IF THERES ANY OTHER PROBLEMS I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. BECAUSE THE CAR WAS ONLY COVERED FOR 60,000 MILES. I'M SO OVER THIS CAR & HONDA. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING A HONDA!

AUG 2015 HEARD A RATTLING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE. CHECKED THE DIPSTICK AND THE ENGINE WAS ALMOST OUT OF OIL. THIS WAS IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AT 3700 MILES. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND HAD AN OIL CHANGE. I RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM HONDA ABOUT OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUES. I BEGAN THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WITH THE DEALER. SO FAR, TWICE IT HAS BEEN DOWN .75 QTS. OVER 5K MILES THAT WOULD PLACE THE ENGINE DOWN 3.75 QTS OR ALMOST DRY, BUT HONDA SAYS THAT'S NORMAL AND I SHOULD BE ADDING OIL MYSELF. THAT IS RIDICULOUS!!! WHY SEND OUT THE NOTICE AND EXTEND THE WARRANTY THEN. HONDA KNOWS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE, BUT DOES NOTHING TO FIX THE ISSUE. I'VE READ THAT IT IS WORN PISTON RINGS DO TO A VCM TIMING ISSUE. WHY IS THAT THE CUSTOMERS PROBLEM? THE SETTLED THIS OWNERS OF THE V6, BUT TOLD OWNERS OF THE 4CYL TO POUND SAND. THIS ISSUE REQUIRES A RECALL. THIS IS MY FIRST AND LAST HONDA ACCORD.

THE ENGINE OF MY HONDA ACCORD 2008 STARTED TO HAVING THE RATTLE AND SCRATCHING SOUND WHEN IT REACHED 32000 MILES. THE ENGINE ALSO STARTED TO FAIL AS THE RATTLE SOUND GETS SERIOUS. I CALLED HONDA USA MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT THEY SAID THAT THEY WILL NOT COVER THIS ISSUE BECAUSE THE CAR WAS MADE IN 2008 AND I'M FILING THIS COMPLAINT IN 2016. I THINK HONDA USA IS TRYING TO AVOID THIS DEFECT OF ACCORD 2008, SINCE NUMEROUS PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE.

IGNITION SWITCH PROBLEM CAR WOULD SOMETIMES START SOMETIMES WOULD NOT EVEN DO ANYTHING NO POWER NO CLICKING JUST DEAD NEW BATTERY EVERYTHING CHECKED OUT OKAY WHEN I BROUGHT IT TO THE MECHANIC LEFT ME STRANDED LAST WEEK AND HAD IT TOWED THIS TIME IT FAILED TO START WITH ALL ATTEMPTS, REPLACING IGNITION SWITCH, CAR WAS OFF WHEN THIS HAPPENED EACH TIME

THE 2008 HONDA ACCORD MODELS WERE SUBJECT TO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT IN 2010. THE SUIT STATED THAT REAR BRAKE PADS ON THE VEHICLE WEAR PREMATURELY. THE PROBLEM WITH THE LAWSUIT IS THAT AT THAT TIME MOST OWNERS OF THE VEHICLES DID NOT KNOW OR ENCOUNTER A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKE PADS. FURTHER, THE PADS ARE WEARING PREMATURELY WHICH IN MOST CASES WILL CAUSE A NEED FOR THE ROTORS TO BE REPLACED. THUS THE EXPENSE TO THE OWNER IS HIGHER. IN SOME INSTANCES THE OWNER IS FORCE TO PURCHASE NEW CALIPERS WHICH INCREASE THE COST EVEN MORE. THE VEHICLES ARE OUTFITTED WITH AN ELECTRONIC BRAKING DISTRIBUTION (EBD) SYSTEM WHICH MIGHT BE THE CAUSE OF THE OVERALL ISSUE. WHEN THE 2008 HONDA ACCORD MODELS WERE BUILT, HONDA INSTALLED SMALLER BRAKE PADS ON THE VEHICLES. THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT COVERED A FRACTION OF THE COST TO OWNERS. AS TIME GOES BY, MORE AND MORE OWNERS ARE NOW FACED WITH MUCH HIGHER COSTS TO REPLACE ALL THE REAR BRAKING COMPONENETS. I MYSELF SPENT OVER $800.00 IN APRIL, 2014 TO HAVE NEW BRAKE PADS, CALIPERS AND ROTORS INSTALLED ON MY VEHICLE. THAT SERVICE WAS TO REPLACE THE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT ON THE VEHICLE. I NEED TO HAVE THE SAME BRAKING COMPONENTS REPLACED IN MARCH, 2016 AT A COST OF OVER $800.00. THE BRAKE COMPONENTS SHOULD NOT NEED TO BE REPLACED AFTER 23 MONTHS. THE MILEAGE BETWEEN REPAIRS WAS 10,000 MILES. HONDA NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR POOR QUALITY FOR THE EBD SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLES.

"TAKATA RECALL" I PURCAHSED A 2008 HONDA ACCORD IN 2013. ABOUT A YEAR AND HALD AGO I STARTED NOTICING THAT THE CAR WAS BURNING ALOT OF OIL. ON TOP OF OIL CHANGES, I HAD TO ADD 3-4 QUARTS A MONTH. IN SEPT 2015 I RCVD A WARRANTY EXT FROM AMERICAN HONDA FOR STICKING PISTONSRINGS RESULTING IN HIGH ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL HONDA DELAERSHIP AND WAS TOLD 3 FAILED ATTEMPTS FOR A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST HAD TO BE DONE FIRST BEFORE HONDA WOULD FIX RINGS PROBLEM. TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA IN OCT 2015 TO START TEST 1. AFTER THAT THE CAR STARTED ACTING FUNNY. I WOULD JERK ALOT, ENGINE LIGHT WOULD START FLASHING, IT WOULDNT ACCELERATE PROPERLY. IN FEB 2016 IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND I GOT STRANDED BECAUSE THE CAR WOULDNT ACCELERATE. AMERICAN HONDA WOULDNT HONOR THE WARRANTY EXT BECAUSE I WAS OVER THE ALLOWED MILES. THEY KNOW THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THESE MODEL CARS AND HAD ONLY RECENTLY SENT ME A LETTER REGARDING IT. I FOUND OUT THAT A FEW OF THE CYLINDERS WERE MISFIRING AND AFTER RESERACH FOUND OUT IT WAS DUE TO THE RINGS. THEY PROVIDED TERRIBEL CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY PUT A CRAPPY ON THE STREET AND DID EVERYTHING TO AVIOID FIXING IT. AND THEN INFORMED CUSTOMERS SO LATE AFTER THE CASE WAS SETTLED.

"TAKATA RECALL, MY COMPLAINT IS BECAUSE I RECEIVED A RECALL ON MY SRS ECU PARTS TO BE CHANGED AND HONDA REFUSES TO GIVE MY DEALER PERMISSION TO FIX MY CAR INSPITE THE FACT THAT I RECEIVED A RECALL LETTER FROM THEM. THEY CONTINUE TO SAY THAT BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS NOT ON IN MY CAR FOR THE AIR BAG THAT IT DO NOT NEED TO BE FIXED. BUT YET I HAVE A RECALLED ON MY SIDE AIRBAG AND MY FONTAL AIRBAG. ITS NOT FAIR THAT THESE PEOPLE WOULD NOT CARE THAT MY FAMILY AND I AM AT RISK FOR INJURY OR TO INJURY SOMEONE. PLEASE HELP ME BECAUSE THIS HAS CAUSE LOTS OF MENTAL AND PHYSICAL STRAIN ON MY HEALTH.

THE ENGINE RATTLES AT COLD START-UP. SINCE APPROXIMATELY SEPTEMBER 1, 2015, THE ENGINE ON MY 2008 HONDA ACCORD EX-L (4 CYLINDER) HAS CREATED A LOUD RATTLE EVERY TIME UNDER COLD START-UP CONDITIONS. THE NOISE GOES AWAY AFTER APPROXIMATELY 2 SECONDS AND THE ENGINE SMOOTHS OUT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALER FOR ANOTHER ISSUE IN JANUARY 2016 AND ASKED THEM TO INVESTIGATE THE COLD START-UP NOISE, BUT THEY CLAIMED THAT THE NOISE DID NOT OCCUR WHEN THEY STARTED THE VEHICLE. I QUESTIONED WHETHER THEY TRIED TO START IT UNDER COLD ENGINE CONDITIONS AND THEY SAID THEY HAD. I RECENTLY TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT SERVICE CENTER AND THEY WERE ABLE TO HEAR THE RATTLE AT COLD START-UP AND SUGGESTED THAT THE PROBLEM MIGHT BE CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE VARIABLE VALVE TIMING CONTROL (VTC) ACTUATOR. HONDA ISSUED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (09-010) BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET A HONDA DEALER TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE.

I JUST FIXED MY 2008 HONDA ACCORD AGAIN THE SRS UNIT SYSTEM. AS FIRST, I DON'T THINK THIS SYSTEM IS EASY TO FAILURE, BUT IT HAPPENED TO MY CAR. THE SRS CELTAINLY LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYING FOR A COUPLE MONTHS, I WENT TO DEALER NEAR BY TO HAVE THE DIAGNOSES CHECK AND FIND OUT THE SRS UNIT WENT BAD? (THAT IS DANGEROUS). BUT THE COST IS TOO COSTLY TO FIX. DEALER TOLD ME THAT I CAN WAIT A FEW MONTH, MAYBE HONDA WILL RECALLS AGAIN THE AIRBAG TO FIX IT FREE. (THEY NEVER MENTION THE SRS UNIT. SRS UNIT IS THE HEART OF THE AIRBAG SYSTEM). THEN I TOLD THEM THAT I CAN'T WAIT UNTILL THEN. IT IS MY WIFE CAR. SHE HAS TO DRIVE MY TWO SONS TO SCHOOL EVERYDAY AND I WORRY THE RAIN IS WIIL BE COMING SOON. AND I HAVE TO REPLACED THE SRS UINT FOR $680.00 INCLUDED DIAGNOSES. THE COMPLAINT I WROTE IS THE SRS UNIT SUPPOSE TO WORK AS LONG AS THE CAR STILL OPERATE? WHEN IT FAILURED? IF ACCENDENT? WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN TO YOU AS A DRIVER AND TO THE PASSENGER??? I LIKE HONDA VERY MUCH BUT NOT HAPPY WHICH WHAT HAPPEN TO MY HONDA ACCORD NOW.

AT ABOUT 68,000 MILES, I BEGAN HEARING A DISTURBING MECHANICAL RATTLE ON COLD STARTS. IT GOT WORSE AND WORSE UNTIL A RECENT TRIP TO MY HONDA DEALER CONFIRMED I HAVE THE VTC (?) VALVE RATTLE PROBLEM, AND IT IS "CURRENTLY UNDER REVIEW BY HONDA." FROM MY RESEARCH ON HONDA OWNERS FORUMS, THIS AFFECTS A LARGE NUMBER OF MODELS FROM 2008 ON, AND HAS BEEN A KNOWN ISSUE FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW. I WAS TOLD THIS ISSUE DOES NOT AFFECT ENGINE PERFORMANCE OR LONGEVITY, BUT IT IS DISCONCERTING TO HAVE SOUNDS LIKE THIS EMANATING FROM MY ENGINE EVERY DAY (IT NOW HAPPENS EVERY TIME I START THE CAR). A CALL TO HONDA CONFIRMED HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY ARE "STILL WORKING ON A SOLUTION" (I DON'T KNOW FOR HOW MANY YEARS NOW). AND NO, THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME, NO COMPENSATION OR EVEN A FIX I COULD POSSIBLY PAY FOR. I WOULD LIKE TO GET RID OF THE CAR BEFORE SOMETHING ELSE HAPPENS, BUT NO BUYER WILL PAY MARKET VALUE FOR IT WITH THIS CONDITION. I AM ALSO WORRIED ABOUT SAFETY BECAUSE THIS ISSUE COULD CAUSE AN ENGINE SEIZURE WHILE DRIVING. THE PROBLEM KEEPS GETTING WORSE AND I NO LONGER TRUST HONDA IS TELLING THE TRUTH.

"TAKATA RECALL" OUR CAR WAS IN A FRONT END COLLISION AND THE FRONT END WAS KNOCKED OFF. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. NEITHER THE FRONT OR THE SIDE CURTAIN AIRBAGS WENT OFF AND MY DAUGHTER HIT THE STEERING WHEEL WITH HER FACE AND HIT HER ARM AND SHOULDER ON THE DOOR. BOTH POLICE AND PARAMEDICS SAID THEY SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. TURNING IN MOTION AND LEFT ONTO MAIN ROAD INTO TRAFFIC.
