THE CAR MAKES METAL GRINDING NOISE WHEN START THE ENGINE IN THE MORNING OR WHEN THE ENGINE IS COOL DOWN. THE NOISE LAST ABOUT 1 TO 2 SECONDS BUT IT'S VERY LOUD. MECHANICS INSISTED IT'S OKAY TO DRIVE. IT'S HAPPENED FOR A FEW MONTHS NOW AND I AM JUST AFRAID THAT SOMETHING WILL BE BREAK VERY SOON.

"TAKATA RECALL" AMERICAN HONDA FAILED TO NOTIFY ME WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACEMENT PART BECAME AVAILABLE. I DID NOT KNOW THE PART WAS AVAILABLE UNTIL I CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AFTER READING ARTICLES IN THE PAPER THAT THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. HONDA SAID IN THE ARTICLE THAT THEY HAD SENT LETTERS AND BLAMED CAR OWNERS FOR BEING SLOW TO RESPOND WHEN IN FACT THIS IS NOT TRUE. PLEASE REQUIRE HONDA TO NOTIFY OWNERS IMMEDIATELY THAT PARTS ARE AVAILABLE SO THAT OTHER OWNERS ARE NOT CONTINUED TO BE PLACED AT RISK. THANK YOU.

TAKATA RECALL, I RECEIVED THE NOTIFICATION OF THE RECALL IN JULY OF 2016, IT IS NOW NOVEMBER OF 2016 WITH NO SIGN OF A FIX. THIS IS INEXCUSABLE, MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO HAVE WITH PASSENGERS. THE AIRBAGS HAVE NOT DEPLOYED THANKFULLY, BUT KNOWINGLY WAITING TO PUT A FIX OUT FOR THIS RECALL IS PUTTING PEOPLE AT RISK.

TAKATA RECALL HAVE ATTEMPTED BOTH WITH LOCAL DEALER AND HEADQUARTERS TO OBTAIN INFORMATION ABOUT MY AIRBAG AND THE COMPANY HAS NOT BEEN WILLING TO HELP. I PURCHASED A 2009 HONDA ACCORD FROM AUTOPARK HONDA IN CARY, NC SEVERAL YEARS AGO. A FEW MONTHS AGO I LOOKED ON RECALL.GOV TO SEE IF THE AIRBAG INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE IS UNDER RECALL. RECALL.GOV LISTED IT AS UNDER RECALL. I CONTACTED AUTOPARK ABOUT THIS. THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T SEE A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE. I ASKED WHY IT WAS SHOWING ON THE GOVERNMENT LISTING AND THEY DID NOT KNOW. I ASKED IF ONE OF THE TAKATA AIRBAGS UNDER RECALL (WHICH ARE DANGEROUS TO HAVE IN THE VEHICLE) WAS INSTALLED IN MY CAR. THEY WERE UNABLE TO TELL ME AND DECLINED TO LOOK INTO IT. SO, I WROTE A LETTER TO HONDA'S CORPORATE HEADQUARTERS (IN TORRANCE, CA) EXPLAINING AND ASKING IF ONE OF THE RECALLED TAKATA AIRBAGS WAS INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE. THEY SENT ME A FORM LETTER IN RETURN. I WANT TO KNOW WHAT AIRBAG IS INSTALLED IN MY VEHICLE (MAKE, MODEL) AND WHETHER IT IS ONE OF THE MALFUNCTIONING AIRBAGS. IF IT IS, I WANT TO KNOW HOW TO GET IT REPLACED IN A TIMELY MANNER. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE THIS INFORMATION TO ME. I FILED THIS COMPLAINT WITH THE BBB A WHILE AGO AND YET HONDA STILL WON'T PROVIDE ME WITH THIS INFORMATION. THEY HAVE PROVIDED INACCURATE INFO TO BBB SUCH AS THEY HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT ME (THEY HAVE NOT). I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO TO OBTAIN THIS BASIC SAFETY INFORMATION FROM HONDA. MY CHILDREN RIDE IN MY CAR EVERY DAY AND I AM WORRIED ABOUT THEI

THE TPMS LIGHT HAS REMAINED ON FOR THE LAST FEW DAYS EVEN THOUGH I HAVE VERIFIED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE IS NORMAL. THE CAR WAS DRIVEN ON HIGHWAYS AND CITY STREETS WHILE THE LIGHT REMAINED ON.

7/2016 MY OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND I WENT TO MY MECHANIC AND THEY SAID MY OIL STICK WAS DRY AND THEY ENDED UP DOING LOTS OF WORK; MAINTENANCE MOSTLY AND PERHAPS IT WOULD TAKE CARE OF THE OIL LOSS. THEY DID NOT FIND A LEAK. 9/19/2016 MY ENGINE HAD PROBLEMS STARTING; WENT TO FIRESTONE TO GET A NEW BATTERY AND I TOLD THEM NO OTHER MAINTENANCE AS I HAVE A MECHANIC. THEY INSTALLED MY BATTERY AND TOLD ME MY OIL STICK WAS DRY AND I HAD 50% OIL NOTED ON MY DASH BOARD. WENT TO MY MECHANIC ON 9/21/2016 AND THEY SAID MY OIL STICK WAS DRY AGAIN. MY MECHANIC RESEARCHED AND FOUND THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE; THEREFORE AM REPORTING IT.

THE PAINT FADED, CLEAR COAT COMING OFF AND IT IS PEELING. TERRIBLE QUALITY! LEATHER SEATS HAVE BUBBLED AND RIPPED. TERRIBLE QUALITY.

OIL BURN ONE QUART EVERY 1000 MILES

TAKATA RECALL - UNREASONABLE TIME SINCE NOTIFICATION FOR PARTS STILL NOT TO BE AVAILABLE TO REPLACE DEFECTED AIRBAG(S). NO MATTER WHETHER I'VE HAD AN INCIDENT I CARE FOR MY UNCLE AND CAN NOT TAKE HIM PLACES IN MY VEHICLE UNTIL YOUR COMPANY DEEMS IT NECESSARY TO SPEND THE MONEY TO FIX ITS MISTAKE. PLEASE FIND AN IMMEDIATE SOLUTION OR PROVIDE A LONER CAR. AND, I FIND IT HIGHLY UNLIKELY THAT THE PROBLEM IS ONLY IN THE PASSENGER AIRBAG AND NOT THE DRIVER OR SIDE AIRBAGS. YOUR NOTIFICATION DID NOT PROVIDE ENOUGH EXPLANATION OR PEACE OF MIND. YOU HAVE LOST A 4X HONDA CUSTOMER ON A FUTURE CAR PURCHASE AND I'M SURE MANY OTHERS DUE TO YOUR POOR PERFORMANCE OF THIS ISSUE.

TAKATA RECALL. RECEIVED NOTICE IN JULY 20016 RE: RECALL. STATES THAT NO ONE SHOULD SIT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. I HAVE A WIFE AND 2 CHILDREN--WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO? I'VE CALLED HONDA EVERY WEEK FOR THE PAST MONTH. THEY SAY SORRY, BUT ARE OF NO HELP. THE PART HAS NOT EVEN BEEN MANUFACTURED YET. THEY ARE VERY BAD AT COMMUNICATING AND CUSTOMER SERVICE. I NEED RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION FOR MY FAMILY.

WHEN THE RECALL FIRST CAME OUT, I CALLED AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT I WAS NOT PART TO OF THE RECALL. THIS WAS IN 2014 OR 15? THEN I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE DEALER STATING THAT MY CAR COULD POSSIBLY BE PART OF THE RECALL. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THE LETTER SPECIFICALLY WAS INTENDED TO SELL ME A NEW CAR USING SCARE TACTICS. I SPOKE TO AMERICAN HONDA BECAUSE I WAS SO MAD AT THEM FOR TRYING TO SELL ME A NEW CAR, BASED ON FEAR AND THEY ONCE AGAIN PROMISED THAT MY CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL AND OFFERED ME A $200 GIFT CARD. I RECENTLY RECEIVED A LETTER DATED JULY 2016 STATING THAT IN FACT MY CAR IS PART OF THE RECALL, AND INSTRUCTING ME TO NOT HAVE, " ANY PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT SEAT UNTIL REPAIR." NOW MY CAR IS IN MY GARAGE SINCE JULY UNDRIVEABLE. I CANNOT DRIVE MY FAMILY ANYWHERE AND THE CAR SITS. THEY CANNOT TELL ME WHEN THEY WILL FIX IT. THE DEALER HAS LIED TO ME FROM DAY ONE OF THE RECALL AND NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME TO NOT HAVE PASSENGERS SIT IN THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. WHAT ABOUT THE DRIVER? TECHNICALLY, THE DRIVER ISN'T SAFE EITHER ACCORDING TO THE LETTER. I NEED HELP. I AM WITHOUT A CAR.

SUMITOMO 70K 600AB 94V HTR ENHANCE L/X 2255017HTR PURCHASED ALL 4 TIRES NEW AT 84K ON 9-11-2014. ON 7-2-2016 AT 103K, I WAS DRIVING DOWN I-95 ABT 70 MPH, CAR SUDDENLY STARTED VIBRATING VIOLENTLY. MANAGED TO RIDE IN EMERGENCY LANE TO NEXT EXIT AT 15 MPH TO FIND A TIRE SHOP ON NEXT EXIT. HAD TO PURCHASE 2 NEW TIRES- CAUSE WAS A SIX INCH SECTIONS OF TREAD THAT APPEARED TO HAVE SEPARATED INTERNALLY. HAD NUMEROUS "BUBBLING" ON BOTH TIRES, BELT SEPARATION WAS NOTICEABLE. THESE ARE 70K TIRES AND THEY ONLY HAD 19K MILES ON THEM. I WAS ALONE AND HEADING TO JAX, MANAGER OF TIRE PLACE SUGGESTED THAT WE TAKE SEVERAL PICS OF THE TIRES SINCE I WASN'T ABLE TO TAKE THEM WITH ME (MY TRUNK WAS FULL). WASN'T ABLE TO MAKE IT BACK TO GA FOR ANOTHER 3 WEEKS DUE TO MED EMERGENCY- UPON RETURNING BACK, I TOOK MY CAR TO THE TIRE PLACE THAT INSTALLED THEM ALONG WITH THE PICS AND RECEIPT. MANAGER INFORMED ME THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO SAVE THE 2 DEFECTIVE TIRES (AS IN BRINGING THEM WITH ME!) AND THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO CALL THEM WHEN IT HAPPENED (THEY ARE CLOSED ALL WEEKEND) AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO COMPENSATE ME FOR THIS ISSUE WITHOUT THE ACTUAL TIRES! I HAD NO IDEA THAT THIS WAS EXPECTED OF ME.

EVEN WITH CORRECT TIRE PRESSURE, THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AFTER ABOUT 20 MILES, OR AT TIMES COMES ON AT START UP AND REMAINS ON. SOMETIMES CAN GO MONTHS WITHOUT IT COMING ON. THIS IS NOT THE SEPARATE LOW TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR.

I WAS GETTING READY TO LEAVE FOR WORK ONE MORNING AND I NOTICED WHEN I CRANKED THE CAR UP THAT IT MADE A KNOCKING NOISE FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS AND QUIT. I DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH A FOUND THAT A LOT OF THE SAME CARS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. I FOUND OUT THAT IT WAS THE VTC ACTUATOR. IT ONLY DOES THIS WHEN IT IS COOL. IF IT HAS BEEN CRANKED UP IT WILL NOT DO IT.

IN APRIL OF 2016, I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. I HEARD THE FAN STILL RUNNING. I ALSO SMELLED ANTIFREEZE. FOLLOWING ADVICE FROM A MECHANIC, I CHECKED THE FLUIDS TO LEARN THAT THERE WAS NO ANTIFREEZE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO TWO REPAIR SHOPS. BOTH PUT A PRESSURE TEST ON THE VEHICLE AND STATED THAT IT WAS HOLDING PRESSURE. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP ON A FRIDAY WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. I TOLD THEM THAT I SMELLED ANTI-FREEZE BUT DID NOT SEE ANY LEAKING UNDER THE CAR. THEY ASKED ME TO BRING IT BACK THE NEXT WEEK SO THEY COULD HAVE MORE TIME TO ANALYZE THE COMPLAINT. THEY PROVIDED ME WITH A LONER CAR FOR THREE DAYS. WHEN THEY COMPLETED THE DIAGNOSTICS THEY CALLED ME AND TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED AN ENGINE, I WAS DEVASTATED. WHEN I PURCHASED THE AUTO, IN HAD 22,000 MILES. AT THIS TIME IT HAD ABOUT 80,000. I PURCHASED THE AUTO OCTOBER 2011. MY THOUGHTS WERE, THIS IS UNHEARD OF. I STILL DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. IT HAS NEVER RUN HOT WITH ME. I HAVE RECORDS OF THE MAINTENANCE. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT THE AUTO THAT WAS NOT REPORTED ON CAR FACTS THAT I AM NOT AWARE OF. EVERY TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR MAINTENANCE, I HAD TO REQUEST THAT THEY STABILIZE THE FLOOR CARPET. THAT CONCERNED ME. WHY WAS THE OLD REMOVED AND NEW INSTALLED. WHEN POSING THAT QUESTION, I WAS TOLD THAT MORE-THAN-LIKELY IT WAS SOILED BEYOND CLEANING. BUT THAT IS MINOR COMPARED TO HAVING TO PURCHASE AN ENGINE FOR AN VEHICLE THAT IS KNOWN TO ENDURE THRU 300,000+ MILES D

TAKATA RECALL

IN REGARDS TO HONDA SAFETY RECALL JN9. WARRANTY EXTENSION: STICKING PISTONS RINGS RESULTING IN HIGH ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION. I HAD THE CAR INSPECTED BY THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN THOUSAND OAKS, CA. STARTING BACK IN DECEMBER 28 2015. THEY DID AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST THAT LASTED 3,000 MILES ON THE ROAD AND HAD ME COME IN EVERY 1000 MILES OF THOSE 3K MILES. EVERY OIL CONSUMPTION EVALUATION AT THE DESIGNED MARK IS BURNING THROUGH 1.2 QT OF OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES. THEY CLAIM THAT IS STANDARD FOR THE CAR TO BURN THAT MUCH OIL. MY OLD 2003 V8 GMC YUKON DOES NOT BURN ANY OIL AT ALL. JUT LAST WEEK ON JULY 19TH 2016 MY OIL ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, THEY (DEALER) TOP ME OFF WITH ANOTHER 1.2 QT OF OIL OFF THE RECORDS. NO SERVICE REPORT WAS TAKEN. I DO NOT BELIEVE A FOUR CYLINDER ENGINE SHOULD USE THAT MUCH OIL UNLESS INDEED THE PISTON RINGS ARE STICKING.. PLEASE HELP!

TAKATA RECALL: I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA ON 07/18/2016 INFORMING ME OF THE ISSUE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE LOCAL DEALER THE NEXT DAY AND THEY TOLD ME TO CALL HONDA TO ARRANGE ALTERNATE TRANSPORTATION. I CALLED ON 07/19/16 AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY REPORT WAS RECEIVED AND THEY WOULD PROVIDE ALTERNATE TRANSPORT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. I CALLED AGAIN ON 07/21/2016 AND FOUND OUT THAT A CASE WAS NEVER OPENED FOR ME AND THERE IS NO RECORD OF MY CONTACT ON 07/19. ANOTHER CASE WAS SUPPOSEDLY OPENED, AND I FOLLOWED UP AGAIN ON 07/22/16, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT AGAIN, MY CASE WAS NEVER CREATED. I AM DRIVING A HAZARDOUS VEHICLE AND HONDA IS REFUSING TO PROVIDE ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORT. ONLY ON MY THIRD ATTEMPT WAS A CASE OPENED, AND I HAVE NOT HEARD A RESPONSE SINCE. HONDA IS NOT ALLOCATING APPROPRIATE RESOURCES TO THE RECALL TO PROVIDE ALTERNATE TRANSPORT TO CONSUMERS AT RISK.

VTC ACTUATOR IS FAILING CAUSING A 2 SECOND DELAY WHEN STARTING PLEASE ADVISE!

LAST WEEK I HEARD A RUBBING/SCRAPING NOISE COMING FROM THE RIGHT REAR OF MY 2009 HONDA ACCORD. TODAY I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERS AND HAD TO HAVE THE RIGHT REAR CALIPER REPLACED, NEW BRAKE PADS AND NEW ROTORS. THIS VEHICLE IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND IS GARAGE KEPT. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY I NEEDED NEW BRAKES AND ROTORS AS MY CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 22,000 MILES ON IT. I AM EXTREMELY UPSET BY THIS.
