This August will make two years since my airbags deployed. When closing the passenger door, all of the airbags deployed(with the exception of the dashboard). This normal amount of force caused this to happen. I have also read many complaints with the same issue as mine, and a lot of them are not on the recall list. I want to file this complaint to hopefully bring forward a resolution. Also, around the same time, while traveling to another state, my piston rings failed. They collapsed together. I had to have it “fixed” and towed to a near by auto shop. When I got back on the road, another spark plug failed. When I finally got home with my car, I took it to my local dealership. After taking my entire engine apart, they found that my piston rings failed”collapsed together”. This was a hefty bill. After some more research on my car, I found that this is only one reason why this model of Honda was discontinued. There is a malfunction with the engineering. I have not been reimbursed for the expense of a repair that I am not responsible for. Thank you. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

ABS System suddenly failed. Cost of repair exceeds $3,000, largely due to huge cost of the part itself which can only be purchased from Honda.

I BOUGHT USED HONDA ACCORD IN 2015. AFTER THAT, I SPENT 2 TIMES TO REPLACE THE BRAKE PADS IN AROUND 30,000 MILES AND 1 TIME I SPENT FOR ROTOR. I EMAILED HONDA ABOUT IT AND I ALSO UNDERSTAND IT'S ABOUT ALMOST 8 YEARS BUT WHENEVER THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE BRAKE PADS THEY SUPPOSE TO CHANGE THE WHOLE BRAKING SYSTEM.NOW I HAVE A QUESTION OF KEEPING OR SELLING THE CAR & IF I HAVE TO SELL THE CAR ( IF I AM SELLING IT NOBODY WILL BUY IT OR I HAVE TO TELL THAT PERSON THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. ) ANOTHER QUESTION IS HONDA IS MAKING A MISTAKE I ALSO READ ABOUT A LAWSUIT REGARDING THAT AND THERE WAS A SETTLEMENT BUT NOW ALL THE USERS HAVE TO PAY AROUND $80 -$100 FOR EVERY 15,000 TO 20,000 MILES. I ALSO SENT EMAIL TO HONDA THAT IF YOU WANT TO MAKE SURE ABOUT THE BRAKES I AM READY TO OUT THE CAR. OR JUST ACCEPT THAT HONDA HAD MADE CHEAP TECHNOLOGY IN THE PAST, SO IN FUTURE, I WOULD RATHER GO FOR TOYOTA. THE INCIDENT DIDN'T HAPPEN SUDDENLY AND MY MECHANIC ALSO INFORMED ME LAST YEAR THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH HONDA AND I DIDN'T BELIEVE HIM AND NOW I AM ABOUT TO SPEND MONEY FOR THE THIRD TIME AND I FINALLY DECIDED TO SEARCH THE REASON FOR THAT.

My wife thought she locked her keys in the car and I got a hanger to try and get in by putting hanger in window and pulling the latch for trunk and then pull the lever to fold down the back seat and then I crawled in from trunk and when I lifted the back seat to look on seat it latched and I was locked in car! I could not open any doors or windows and it was very hot that day and it was even hotter inside the car. I thought I was gonna die! I was trying to yell but nobody was around and my son in law just happen to pull up and I was screaming beating on the window and he heard me and saw me and rushed over and I told him to pull the latch in trunk to open back seat and he found the latch and I was able to crawl out. I thought I was gonna die!! You cannot get out of that car if you are inside and the locks are locked. There was a time not long before that my wife and I went to store and she went in and I was gonna come in after I got done with my phone call I was on and when I tried to open the door it would not open and I had to wait for her to come out of store to unlock the car so I could get out. After this last incident I was so shaken up I didn't know what to do until my brother in law told me to file a complaint before it happens to someone else that might not get lucky like I did and to call an attorney which is what I'm gonna do regardless of what they do about it. I'm a grown adult and could not get out of that car and if that were to happen to a child I don't wanna even think about what would happen and that is why I'm making this complaint so it can be fixed before it happens again if it already hasn't.

I own a 2010 Honda Accord. I was driving on the highway while driving at approximately 60 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated and the vehicle started to shake and failed to operate as needed. I was able to navigate the vehicle off the roadway. The vehicle was towed to a dealership where the vehicle was diagnosed that the piston rings needed to be replaced. I have 59,000 original miles on it! I was told by the service advisor that it was common in Hondas with v6 due to the Ecco or vcm. I found out extended warranty was given to owners, I didn't. I want to know why I didn't and why I never received a recall? I'm not spending $6000 for something that was a terrible design. Please call Helen Crowe or David Bryant 317-701-7600 or email [email protected]

i traded this vehicle in to AutoNation Acura South Bay in Torrance CA on 1/2/23 and purchased one of theirs. My 2010 Honda trade had 233,566 miles. They failed to forward my vehicle release to DMV and I began receiving parking tkts. I contacted the dealer. They said it was taken care of. I kept getting toll evasions. I contact the dealer again and requested they send me a copy of what they said was sent to DMV. When I reviewed the DMV registration report, I saw the odometer had been rolled back to read 105,266 . That is a difference of 128,300 miles. That is fraud and a extreme safety hazard to that buyer and other drivers.

The two catelletic converters are broken at the same time? The part guy said 1 is broken and the other just isn’t working. How can this be on a car that has less than 125,000 miles?

WHITE DIAMOND PEARL PAINT FLAKING OFF DRIVER DOOR AND AROUND REAR WINDOW CHANNEL. FLAKING OFF IN SHEETS.

Dec 11, 2018
I WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR, EVEN AFTER UNLOCKING THE DOOR. THIS COULD BE AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH, SHOULD EMERGENCY RESPONDERS NEED TO GAIN IMMEDIATE ACCESS TO THE CAR AND A PASSENGER WAS UNRESPONSIVE. THE POWER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILED, WHICH CAUSES THE DOOR LOCK TO STAY ENGAGED EVEN AFTER UNLOCKING THE CAR USING THE REMOTE FOB AND USING THE POWER LOCK BUTTON ON THE DOOR. THE ONLY WAY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR IS TO MANUALLY FLIP THE INTERIOR DOOR LOCK SWITCH. THIS IS THE SECOND POWER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR TO FAIL, AND MY CAR HAS LESS THAN 93,000 MILES ON IT. THE POWER DOOR LOCKS SHOULD LAST THE LIFE OF THE CAR, AND DOORS THAT STAY LOCKED ARE AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD. HONDA CHARGES $298, PER ACTUATOR, MAKING COMPLETE REPAIR CLOSE TO $1,200. MY GUESS IS MOST PEOPLE WOULD CHOOSE TO LIVE WITH THE ISSUE RATHER THAN PAY THE HIGH REPAIR COST, BUT THEY DON'T THINK ABOUT WHAT COULD HAPPEN IF THEY ARE UNRESPONSIVE, THE CAR IS IN FLAMES, AND THE DOORS WON'T OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE. I SPOKE WITH HONDA CORPORATE ABOUT THE ISSUE, AND THEY PROVIDED NO RESPONSE. THEY JUST SAID "WE DOCUMENT YOUR CALL." VERY FRUSTRATING.

THE PAINT FALLS OFF AND TURNS YELLOW. THE CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AND I ONLY USE HIGH QUALITY CAR WASH MATERIALS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL FOR A SIX YEAR OLD GARAGE KEPT CAR TO CHANGE COLORS AND THE PAINT FALL OFF. NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR THEY SAID.

The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 11V004000 (Electrical System) however his vehicle was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 160,000

ALL 4 OF MY LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE GONE OUT IN ABOUT A 6 YEAR PERIOD OF TIME. THEY WENT OUT INDIVIDUALLY APPROXIMATELY A YEAR APART. THE PROBLEM STARTED WITHIN THE FIRST 3 YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. HONDA DID COVER THE FIRST BUT REFUSED TO COVER THE OTHER 4. I️ HAD ASKED TO TO HAVE ALL OF THEM REPLACED INITIALLY AND WAS TOLD NO. HONDA OBVIOUSLY BOUGHT A BATCH OF BAD LOCK ACTUATORS. I HAVE OWNED 8 HONDA'S OVER THE LAST 35 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD A SINGLE LOCK ACTUATOR GO OUT IN ANY HONDA I️ HAVE EVER OWNED.

I WAS DRIVING AS USUAL TO WORK ON I-405 WITH 55-60M/H SPEED AND SUDDENLY HEARD A BLAST, LIKE SOMEBODY SHOT ME THROUGH WINDOW. I WAS IN SUCH A SHOCK THAT ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF MY STEERING. BUT SOMEHOW MANAGED TO STAY IN LANE. AS MY OFFICE WAS PRETTY CLOSE, I DECIDED TO INSPECT WHAT HAPPENED AFTER REACHING THERE. HOWEVER, WHILE DRIVING TO OFFICE, I CONTINUED TO BE SCARED AND IN TRAUMA AND COULD ALSO HEAR AIR COMING IN THE CAR. BY THE TIME I REACHED OFFICE I HAD A HINT THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH MY SUNROOF, OR IT IS OPEN. AFTER COMING OUT OF MY CAR IN THE OFFICE PARKING I SAW THIS HUGE HOLE IN THE SUNROOF GLASS. AND PIECES OF GLASS SHATTERED IN THE SUNROOF FLAP. BECAUSE OF SEATTLE'S DARK CLOUDY CLIMATE, I USUALLY KEEP MY SUNROOF FLAP OPEN FOR SOME LIGHT TO COME INTO MY LUCK, THIS MORNING IT WAS CLOSED. OTHERWISE, MY FOUR MONTHS OLD ALMOST LOST HER MOTHER OR I COULD BE MISERABLY HURT WITH TINY GLASS PIECES. FOLLOWING DAY ON SATURDAY,12/31/2016, I CALLED LOCAL HONDA SERVICE MANAGER, AND HE SAID IT WILL COST ME $770 FOR FIXING THE SUNROOF. HE SAID HONDA WILL NOT COVER IT BECAUSE THE SUNROOF GLASS HAD WARRANTY LIMITED TO 3 YEARS AND 30,000MILES WHICH IS EXPIRED. SO, INDIRECTLY HONDA SAID, WE WILL KEEP ON SUPPLYING FAULTY SUNROOF GLASS. IF IT EXPLODES WITHIN WARRANTY PERIOD, WE WILL AT THE LEAST COVER FOR IT. AND IF YOUR WARRANTY IS EXPIRED AND YOU DIE BECAUSE OF IT, WE DON'T CARE. ALSO, HONDA SAID THAT I CANNOT GET SUNROOF GLASS FIXED BEFORE TUESDAY, 1/3/2017 BECAUSE THEY CAN'T GET THE GLASS ORDERED BEFORE TUESDAY AS EVERYBODY INCLUDING HONDA ARE VACATIONING FOR NEW YEARS. AS THERE WAS SNOW STORM WARNING ON 12/31/2016 AND MY HUSBAND WAS OUT OF TOWN, I IN SEVERE COUGH AND COLD HAD TO RUSH TO NEAREST LOWES WITH MY 4 MONTHS OLD ALSO COUGHING, TO GET A TARP AND DUCT TAPE, SO THAT I COULD SEAL THE SUNROOF AND PROTECT THE CAR'S INTERIORS. *TR

THE MOONROOF GLASS ON MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY. NOTHING HIT IT, THERE WAS NO WIND OR UNUSUAL CONDITION OF ANY KIND. ONE MOMENT, NORMAL DRIVING, THEN A SOUND LIKE A BIG FIRECRACKER EXPLODING IN THE CAR, THEN I LOOKED UP AND ABOUT ONE QUARTER OF THE GLASS WAS GONE OUT OF THE CENTER, THE REST WAS SHATTERED INTO A MILLION PIECES BUT STILL HANGING IN PLACE. MORE GLASS HAS BROKEN LOOSE AND FALLEN DOWN AND THE HOLE GROWN BIGGER OVER THE PAST DAY. THOUGH MOST OF THE GLASS BROKE INTO SAFETY GLASS-LIKE CHUNKS, THERE WERE SOME FINE SLIVERS IN THE PASSENGER AREA THAT WERE SHARP AND DIFFICULT TO CLEAN UP. *TR

I RENTED THIS 2010 HONDA ACCORD FROM ENTERPRISE (DUNDALK, MD OFFICE) WHEN MY CAR WAS SENT TO REPAIR. I NOTICED THAT THIS CAR WAS MAKING A LOT OF NOISES WHILE DRIVING. THEN ON FEB 7, 2012 AROUND 6:40AM, I JUST FINISHED WORK AND HEADED HOME. I HAD ALL THE CAR WINDOWS CLOSED. AS SOON AS I ENTERED HIGHWAY I-95 NORTH (EXIT #43 IN MARYLAND), I NOTICED THERE WAS STRANGE NOISES. IT SOUNDED LIKE SOME STONES JUMPING INSIDE THE DOOR. THE STRANGE NOISES DIDN'T GO AWAY AND I HEARD A BIG EXPLOSION SOUND SEVERAL MINUTES LATER. IT WAS VERY SCARY. I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE CAR. THERE WERE CARS ALL AROUND MY CAR. I WAS AFRAID OF HITTING OTHER CARS. MY FIRST REACTION WAS FLAT TIRE OR GUNFIRE. HOWEVER, I NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE GLASS WAS GONE SECONDS LATER AND THE CAR WAS STILL DRIVABLE. THE BROKEN GLASSES WAS INSIDE MY CAR AND INSIDE THE DOOR. THIS IS VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE AS I HAVE NO SUCH EXPERIENCE BEFORE AND I HAVE NOT HEARD SIMILAR CASES AROUND ME. I BELIEVE THE GLASS EXPLOSION WAS DUE TO RESONANCE. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN WE STARTED HEARING A CRACKING NOISE COMING FROM THE SUNROOF. MY BOYFRIEND LOOKED UP TO SEE THE SUNROOF CRACKING. HE QUICKLY CLOSED THE SUNROOF COVER JUST BEFORE THE GLASS SHATTERED. NO CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES OR HEAVY EQUIPMENT WERE IN THE VICINITY. NO ROCK OR OTHER PROJECTILE HIT THE CAR. *TT I CONTACTED MY LOCAL DEALER AND LEFT A MESSAGE FOR THE SERVICE MANAGER. I CONTACTED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE THE NEXT DAY AND GOT A CASE NUMBER. I DROPPED MY CAR OFF AT THE DEALER THE FOLLOWING MORNING WITH THE UNDERSTANDING THAT THE DEALER'S GENERAL MANAGER WOULD TAKE A LOOK AT IT. BEFORE LUNCH, I GOT A CALL FROM THE DEALER THAT HONDA DENIED MY CLAIM FOR A WARRANTY REPAIR, STATING IT WAS ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE. I CONTACTED HONDA AND THE REGIONAL CARE MANAGER STATED THAT IT COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY A SMALL ROCK. I WAS TOLD TO GO THROUGH INSURANCE. I CALLED MY INSURANCE. THEY AGREED IT WAS UNLIKELY THAT IT WAS ACCIDENTAL DAMAGE AND WOULD WANT TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE TO UNDERSTAND IF THEY SHOULD TRY TO GET MONEY BACK FROM HONDA. I DROPPED MY CAR OFF AT THE GLASS COMPANY. THE COMPANY HAD TO ORDER THE GLASS FROM HONDA AS IT'S NOT REGULAR WINDOW GLASS CARRIED BY THEIR VENDORS. WE SPOKE TO A FEW SERVICE WRITERS AND A SERVICE MANAGER - NONE HAD EVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THAT. THE GLASS COMPANY ALSO SAID THAT THEY NEVER SAW ANYTHING LIKE IT. SUNROOF GLASS IS THICK AND TEMPERED AND SHOULD NOT SHATTER LIKE IT DID. *TT

I AM IN A DILEMMA PERTAINING TO MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD. I LIVE IN CANADA BUT I PURCHASED A DEMO MODEL FROM UNITED STATES. DURING THE LAST FIVE YEARS I HAD FOUR INCIDENTS OF UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WHILE BRAKING. AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS OR STOP SIGN, THE CAR SUDDENLY GOES INTO UNINTENDED ACCELERATION WITH RPM RUNNING OVER 4500. I CONTINUED TO PRESS ON THE BRAKE AND CHANGED THE GEAR TO NEUTRAL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO REV AT HIGH SPEED DESPITE NOT PRESSING ON ANY PEDALS, AND THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT WAS TO SWITCH OFF THE ENGINE WHILE THE CAR IS IN NEUTRAL AND THEN SWITCH IT ON AGAIN AFTER PUTTING THE CAR IN P GEAR. I AM 100 % CERTAIN THAT THESE INCIDENTS ARE NOT RELATED TO DRIVER ERROR AS IT HAS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES. I PHONED AMERICAN HONDA AND HONDA CANADA AND BOTH BRUSHED ME OFF AND DENIED EVER HEARING ABOUT IT. THEY ADVISED ME TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. IT WOULD BE VERY DIFFICULT TO ISOLATE THIS FAULT AS IT RARELY HAPPENS (4 TIMES IN FIVE YEARS).I AM WORRIED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY ESPECIALLY IF MY WIFE OR MY DAUGHTERS ARE DRIVING. I WILL BE GRATEFUL IF YOU CAN LET ME IF OTHER DRIVERS HAVE REPORTED A SIMILAR INCIDENT FOR HONDA AUTOMOBILE. I ALSO NEED SOME ADVICE ON HOW I CAN RESOLVE THIS. IS THIS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM?

I have been experiencing serious problems with my 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour. In 2013 there was a lawsuit against Honda due to an oil consumption and it stated ALL 2010 Honda Accord Crosstours and since a recall was never issued Honda denied fixing my car. After a lawsuit Honda should have been court appointed to fix everyone of the million cars with the defective engines!!!! The consumer shouldnt have to replace anything. My car completely shutdown) weeks ago while I was driving major safety issue don’t you think geez will it take people to die before they replace all these defective engines??? Oil is leaking into the combustion chamber and thats a defective problem per manufacturer!!!!!! You need to do an investigation on this because it’s the V-6 J35Z2 that they put in majority of there cars and it’s defective that should be against the law!!!!!!!!! I have had so many repairs on this Honda that shouldn’t have had to be done on a Honda. My last Honda had the engine before this defective one and it was great never had a problem. It’s nit the consumers fault so Honda should have to replace all those engines and it should be the lemon law if being sold after a lawsuit on them and they shouldn’t be abje to sell a defective engine knowingly!!!!! Someone need to step up for the consumer in this matter because warranty can’t even apply when it was defective before anyobe purchased the vehicle.!!!!!!!!! DO SOMETHING

Hope this email finds you well. I am writing to address a serious matter regarding my 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour, which has been facing recurrent misfires due to what appears to be a manufacturer-induced oil consumption defect in the engine design. Over the past 18 months, I have experienced extensive repairs on my Honda, surpassing any issues I have encountered with previous vehicles. Despite my diligent efforts In maintaining the car with regular tune-ups and oil changes , it is disheartening to witness fluids seeping into the engine, causing damage to multiple components. I have invested a significant amount of money into resolving these issues, expenses that should not have arisen with a Honda vehicle, given my positive experiences with the brand in the past. Upon contacting customer service and receiving a case number, I have found the assistance provided to be inadequate in addressing these issues severity of the situation. The recent revelation of a 2014 lawsuit further compounds my concerns, as it appears that Honda seeks to evade accountability for widespread engine malfunctions, leaving loyal customers like myself in a distressing predicament. Despite the substantial financial outlay exceeding $1200, my vehicle remains inoperable due to the unintended consequences of the oil leakage onto pistons, a situation exacerbated by the lack of proactive measures from Honda in rectifying this critical issue. I have meticulously preserved all documentation, including receipts detailing the damages incurred as a result of the oil consumption defect. While I acknowledge the complexities surrounding warranty coverage and ownership transfer, it is evident that the fundamental flaw lies in the initial design of the engine, which has compromised the vehicles performance and safety. Honda’s reluctance to acknowledge and address this inherent defect reflects poorly on their commitment to customer satisfaction and product This what I emailed to Honda.

I purchased this car in June 2021 for my grandson as high school graduation gift and entrance in college. Driving at a speed of 55 the car tremble uncontrollably and cuts off. I was told that oil leak into the catalytic converters. I had to replace catalytic converters, clean piston, constantly changing spark plugs car misfires, had to replace air conditioner and most of the electrical. What is next. Honda settled a lawsuit March 2014 which this car was apart of it. I wish I would’ve know before I purchased this car. That class action lawsuit needs to be reopened.

MY ACCORD OIL LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON AND OFF WHEN THERE WAS 40% OIL REMAINING, AND THEREFORE, I TOOK MY VEHICLE INTO FLETCHER JONES HONDA, WHICH IS WHERE I REGULARLY GO FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE SERVICE. THEN I RECEIVED HORRIFIC NEWS CONCERNING THE LIFE OF MY VEHICLE, WHICH IS IN NEED OF A BRAND NEW 3.5-LITER VTEC V6 ENGINE, WHICH WILL COSTS $12,372.87.

PURCHASED A 2010 HONDA IN JANUARY 2010. WE EXPERIENCED EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE AND YELLOW WARNING LIGHT ON INTERMITTENTLY. WE REQUESTED AN OIL CHANGE AT 4,500 MILES AND WERE TOLD NOT TO CHANGE THE FIRST OIL UNTIL THE OIL LIFE SHOWED 15%. WHILE TRAVELING, AT APPROXIMATELY 7,500 MILES, THE VEHICLE OIL LIFE INDICATOR SHOWED ABOUT 40% USE ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE HAD NO OIL SHOWING ON THE DIPSTICK. THE EXHAUST PIPES WERE BLACKENED. OIL WAS ADDED AND WE WERE TOLD THERE COULD BE ENGINE DAMAGE. WE RETURNED TO THE HONDA DEALER WHO WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM WHO ADVISED US IF THE OIL USAGE WAS LESS THAN A QUART EVERY 1,000 MILES OIL USE WAS NOT EXCESSIVE. WE WERE TOLD THE CAR WAS FINE AND THE TAIL PIPES WERE NOT A PROBLEM. WE CONTINUE TO HAVE TO ADD OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. *TR

TIRES
6 complaints
235/45R18 94S M+S I originally purchased these tires because they were rated #2 on top 10 anti-hydroplaning lists. After receiving the tires I realized the anti-hydroplaning characteristics are due to an unusually deep tire tread. After driving them a bit I realized that the tire compound had excessive lack of grip on lightly wet surfaces and often on dry surfaces. So they may be good for anti-hydroplaning as long as the tree depth is deep, but the worst traction for dry or slightly wet surfaces for ANY tire I have ever driven. Going down slight downhills with a turn is extremely dangerous even at slow speeds. This morning I was going down a short street with a slight grade and a turn at the bottom when the car failed to turn and continued straight (like on ice). These tires (same on my wife's Mazda) have had traction problems since we bought and installed them. My wife's Mazda won't go up hills with turns on dry pavement and at slow speeds without losing traction. All tires on both vehicles have decent tread depth. This is a dangerous driving condition on uphill/w turns and especially on downhill/w turns. I believe the NTSB should do an investigation into car accident deaths occurring on graded hills with turns at the top or bottom of the inclinations. The tire in suspect is the Firestone Winterforce 2 tire. Please investigate this to possibly save lives. And if a high accident rate is found please have these tires recalled.

IN NOVEMBER, I PURCHASED 4 NEW CONTINENTAL EXTREMECONTACT DWS FOR MY CAR. IN MARCH, DURING POTHOLE SEASON, I QUICKLY LEARNED THAT THESE NEW TIRES HAVE SOFT SIDEWALLS AND EASILY DEVELOP SIDEWALL BUBBLES. I HAD TO REPLACE TWO OF THE TIRES DURING THIS TIME PERIOD. I'VE NEVER - IN MY 15 YEARS OF DRIVING - HAD TO REPLACE A TIRE DUE TO A SIDEWALL BUBBLE. CURIOUS, I TYPED "CONTINENTAL DWS SIDEWALL BUBBLE" INTO GOOGLE AND FOUND ONLINE FORUMS LOADED WITH FOLKS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. IT'S PRETTY CLEAR BASED ON MY OWN EXPERIENCE, AND ONLINE REPORTS FROM OTHERS, THAT THE CONTINENTAL DWS TIRES HAVE WEAKER THAN USUAL SIDEWALLS, AND DEVELOP BUBBLES AT A MUCH HIGHER RATE THAN OTHER TIRES. AFTER SPENDING SO MUCH ON TIRES WITHIN A SIX MONTH PERIOD, I ASKED CONTINENTAL TO REPLACE JUST ONE OF THE TIRES UNDER WARRANTY (THE TIRE SHOP HAD MERCY AND REPLACED ONE FOR FREE!). CONTINENTAL'S INITIAL WARRANTY INCLUDES ROAD HAZARD PROTECTION FOR THE FIRST 2/10THS OF WEAR, WHICH THIS TIRE EASILY FELL UNDER. AFTER MEETING ALL OF CONTINENTAL'S REQUIREMENTS FOR THE WARRANTY INFORMATION, THEY HAVE STOPPED RESPONDING TO MY CUSTOMER SERVICE INQUIRIES. THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE THREE WEEKS TO RECEIVE A CHECK. IT'S BEEN THREE MONTHS. PLEASE OPEN AN INVESTIGATION INTO THE SIDEWALL ISSUES OF THESE TIRES. IT IS CLEARLY A KNOWN ISSUE, AND CONTINENTAL REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY - EVEN WHEN THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY! MY NEXT COMPLAINT WILL BE FILED WITH THE FTC FOR FALSE WARRANTY CLAIMS, SINCE THEY REFUSE TO HONOR THE WARRANTY UNDER THE RULES THEY DEVELOPED; RULES THAT I MET. CONSIDER THIS FILED COMPLAINT MY OFFICIAL NOTICE TO CONTINENTAL. IF I DIE DUE TO A TIRE DEFECT, THIS NOTICE IS PLACED IN A FILE FOR MY LAWYER.

While backing out of my garage, my daughter observed flames coming out from the front center of the hood. I then put the car into park, and we got out of the car. I opened the hood, and observed smoke coming out of the alternator, and flames coming from the lower engine area. I then went into my garage to get my fire extinguisher, and put out the flames. I then phoned a towing service to transport my 2010 Honda Accord to the Mobil Station at 12 mile and Farmington Roads where I normally have my Honda serviced. I then telephoned my mechanic at the Mobil station to let him know that the two truck would deliver my car to him shortly. My mechanic then recommended replacing the alternator and started, which I agreed to. The next repair was to replace the engine wiring in my Honda Accord, which did not repair the vehicle. After 8-9 days, could not repair my 2010 Honda Accord, On October 8, 2024 my neighbor and I visited Suburban Honda in Farmington Hills, and were told to contact Honda America to open a case, which we did.

I BOUGHT A HONDA ON QUITE A FEW REFERRALS BECAUSE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE SOLID CARS THAT LAST. I HAD ACTUALLY BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE, IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER, A COUPLE YEARS AFTER I BOUGHT IT. I WOULD TAKE IT IN AND IT WOULD BE FIXED (?). UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN THE ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHTS WOULD GO ON FOR A FEW DAYS THEN OFF, THEN BACK ON, THEN OF AGAIN. THE FINAL TIME THEY WENT ON THEY WERE BLINKING AND MY CAR WAS ACTING VERY SLUGGISH, IT WAS NOT GETTING A LOT OF POWER SO I TOOK IT IN TO A HONDA DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. AFTER PICKING MY SELF UP OFF OF THE FLOOR FROM THE ESTIMATE THAT THEY GAVE ME, I TOOK THEIR PRINT OUT TO ANOTHER REPAIR CENTER, THAT RHYMES WITH, HIRESTONE, BECAUSE THEY HAD TAKEN CARE OF A FEW THINGS IN THE PAST AND HAD GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND COMPARABLE PRICING. ONE WEEK LATER, MY ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND I FLIPPED OUT! I TOOK IT BACK TO 'HIRESTONE" AND THEY TOOK IT IN AND A FEW HOURS LATER, HERE I AM READING ABOUT THE LAWSUIT WITH HONDA OVER THE EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE DEAL. NOW I WILL BE SUPER INCONVENIENCED TO FIND A WAY TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO A DEALER FOR A COUPLE HOURS FOR MY 3RD OIL CHANGE IN ABOUT 3-4 WEEKS SO THEY CAN MONITOR THE USAGE AND DETERMINE IF I QUALIFY TO HAVE THE PISTON RINGS REPLACED, A 1-2 DAY JOB. ALSO COME TO FIND OUT THAT IF IT IS THE LAWSUIT ISSUE, AMERICAN HONDA DOES NOT OFFER A RENTAL CAR FOR ME WHILE THEY ARE FIXING "THEIR" FAULTY ISSUE. I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS HEADACHE, THEY KNEW ABOUT IT A FEW YEARS AGO. THEY SHOULD PAY FOR EVERYTHING!! URGGGGGGG!!!!

I BOUGHT MY CAR NEW IN 2010 HONDA ACCORD 4 CYLINDER. I HAD BEEN TAKING MY CAR TO GET THE OIL CHANGED ON A REGULAR BASIS TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. SINCE BEGINNING OF THIS YEAR, MY CAR STARTED MAKING NOISE SO IT TOOK IT TO DEALER TO CHECK THE REASON. HE TOLD THAT ME THAT MY CAR IS OUT OF OIL EVEN THOUGH INDICATOR SAY OIL LEVEL IS 70% AND THAT IS THE REASON FOR IT'S MAKING SOUND. HE TOLD ME THAT HE COULD NOT DETECT THE ISSUE AND BRING IT ONE MORE TIME. HE TEMPORARILY FIXED THE ISSUE BY FILLING THE OIL. IT AGAIN HAPPENED AFTER A MONTH AND HE AGAIN FILLED IN OIL BUT HE CHARGED ME THIS TIME FOR FILLING THE OIL. HE SAID THAT WE WILL NEED TO DO "OIL CONSUMPTION" TEST AS HE DOESN'T SEE ANY LEAKAGE EITHER. THIS IS REALLY SCARY TO ME WHEN I SEE THAT THERE IS ALREADY CLASS SUIT AGAINST HONDA FOR THE SAME REASON BUT THAT'S APPLICABLE FOR 6 CYLINDERS ENGINE AND NOT FOR 4 CYLINDERS. WHEN I ASKED THE DEALER ABOUT IT, HE SIMPLY DENIED ANY LAWSUIT OR CLASS ACTION OR RECALL FOR ACCORD 2010. IT'S DEFECT IN A CAR BUT NEITHER HONDA ACCEPT IT OR DEALER AGREES TO IT. HOWEVER, I'M SPENDING MY MONEY AND TIME TO FILL IN THE OIL EVERY MONTH AFTER ONLY 1000 MILES. IT'S RIDICULOUS AND FRUSTRATING AS WELL.

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON THE SAM HOUSTON TOLLWAY GOING ABOUT 70 MILES (WITH THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC) IN 65 DEGREE WEATHER WHEN I HEARD A LOUD SOUND LIKE AN EXPLOSION. I COULD NOT PULL OVER WHERE I WAS SO I CONTINUED TO DRIVE. I HEARD THE WIND LIKE YOU WOULD IF YOUR WINDOWS WERE DOWN A BIT. I PULLED THE OPENING OF THE SUNROOF (THE COVER THAT IS INSIDE THE CAR) AND I HEARD THE GLASS. I SHUT IT IMMEDIATELY AND DROVE TO WORK. UPON ARRIVING AT WORK I INSPECTED THE SUNROOF AND FOUND NO DEBRIS THAT WOULD INDICATE SOMETHING HAD STRUCK MY CAR. I CALLED MY HUSBAND AND HE HAD RESEARCHED THIS AND SAW THE ARTICLE THAT BROUGHT ME HERE TO YOUR WEBSITE.

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, I RE-POSITIONED THE DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR SO THAT IT WOULD COVER THE DRIVERE SIDE WINDOW. DURING THE RE-POSITION, THE VISOR DETACHED ITSELF FROM THE CAR. THE VISOR WOULD NOT GO BACK INTO THE SOCKET, SO I HAD NO OTHER CHOICE BUT CLIP THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE VISOR INTO IT'S SOCKET AND ALLOW THE LEFT SIDE OF THE VISOR TO HANG. I HAD TO HUNCH DOWN FOR THE REMAINDER OF MY COMMUTE IN ORDER TO HAVE FULL VISIBILITY WHILE DRIVING. ONCE PARKED, I WAS ABLE TO WORK WITH THE VISOR FOR SEVERAL MINUTES TO GET IT BACK INTO THE SOCKET. THE VISOR CANNOT BE PIVOTED TO THE LEFT DRIVER SIDE, IT FALLS EVERY TIME.THE VISOR CAN ONLY REMAIN PARKED OR UNFOLDED WITHOUT DETACHING ITSELF FROM THE CAR. I FACE THE SUN DURING MY COMMUTE TO AND FROM WORK, SO NOT HAVING FULL ACCESS TO MY VISOR IS TROUBLESOME FOR MY VISION. I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE DEALER SAID, "IT SEEMS FINE TO ME." THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I AM RELUCTANT TO PIVOT THE VISOR TO TAKE A PHOTO BECAUSE IT TAKES SO LONG TO GET IT BACK INTO THE SOCKET.

OIL CONSUMPTION IS MORE THAN IT SHOULD BE. I HAVE TO ADD OIL BETWEEN CHANGES AND I ALWAYS GET A MISFIRE BECAUSE MY ENGINE IS TRASH
Feb 13, 2021
EXCESS OIL CONSUMPTION. FIRST MADE AWARE BY OIL SERVICE TECHNICIAN WHEN THE CAR WAS JUST UNDER 5 YEARS OLD. TECHNICIAN SAID THEY NOTICE EXCESS CONSUMPTION AT THE PREVIOUS CHANGE, BUT THOUGHT IT WAS A FLUKE. SINCE THEN, HONDA HAS HAD ME RECORDING MILEAGE AND OIL LEVELS. AFTER NEARLY 8,000 MILES I HAD ENOUGH EVIDENCE FOR THEM TO DO A SOFTWARE UPDATE....WHICH DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. ONE THOUSAND MILES AFTER THE MOST RECENT OIL CHANGE, I HAD TO ADD 1/2 QUART. NOW THE LOCAL HONDA REPAIR SHOP SAYS THEY ARE TRYING TO CONVINCE HONDA TO DO A GOOD-WILL FIX. REALLY? HOW IS THIS GOOD WILL WHEN THIS IS A KNOWN ENGINEERING DESIGN ISSUE?

HE STATED WE WILL CHECK OIL AND TRANSMISSION FLUID WHEN YOU GET HOME. TO FIND NO OIL OR TRANSMISSION ON EITHER. WE IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED DEALER WE PURCHASED FROM AND WE HAD IT TOWED THERE FOR ATTENTION. CAR DEALER CHANGED OIL(WHICH WASN'T MUCH) AND TRANSMISSION FLUID WERE "FINE". PASSING THE BUCK! WE CONTINUED TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT TO FIND WE ARE PUTTING QUARTS OF OIL IN IT. IT HAS HAD 3 OIL CHANGES IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AND NOT DUE TO MILEAGE---DUE TO EACH PLACE WE TOOK IT TO-DEALER-CHANGED OIL, JIFFY LUBE-CHANGED OIL-HONDA-CHANGED OIL AND STARTED "OIL CONSUMPTION" TEST. I HAVE CHECKED OIL IN MY CARS, SINCE I WAS 16 YEARS OLD. HONDA STATING "IT'S NORMAL"--IT'S NOT NORMAL TO HAVE TO KEEP ADDING OIL TO YOUR CAR BETWEEN ONE OIL CHANGE TO ANOTHER, DUE TO MILEAGE ONLY. YOU CAN VISUALLY SEE OIL EVERYWHERE ON THE ENGINE BLOCK AND LAYING ON OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE ENGINE. FIX THE CAR!!!!!! *TR

This past week I experienced a catastrophic malfunction with the vehicle, while driving it appeared to short circuit and shut down. It would not allow me to drive in any gear whatsoever. Upon taking it to a mechanic at Jiffy Lube he stated the incident is identical and experienced the same issues that Honda and the Dept of Transportation deemed a recall that could have ended in severe injury or death. That issue and recall being (see below) Powertrain:Auto Transmission Control Module (TCM,PCM). You see the mechanic at Jiffy Lube referred me to this recall due to his analysis and diagnosis being the same. Whom stated that the vin doesn't state a recall, but it being the exact same model, make, engine, year, and coupled with the fact that it has TCM and PCM catastrophic damage, I was subjected to and encountered. I request this matter be further researched and investigation conducted because 1.5 million vehicles were effected and I'd feel more confident and place more faith in Honda upon investigation.

MY CAR BURNS TOO MUCH OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA AND VEHICLE CHECKED OUT 5 TIMES NOW FOR THE PROBLEM, THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT FOR MY VEHICLE TO GET FIXED IN THE OIL CONSUMPTION CLASS ACTION SUIT IT HAD TO HAVE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON TWICE, ETC. I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THIS THE 1ST TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON I LOST ABOUT 50% OF THE POWER OF THE VEHICLE WHEN I WAS TRAVELLING ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY, I HAD TO CHANGE LANES AND SLOW DOWN BECAUSE I COULDN'T KEEP UP AND MY VEHICLE WAS SHAKING SO BADLY. IT TURNS OUT THAT MY OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM HAD FOULED THE SPARK PLUGS AND CAUSED THEM TO STOP FIRING WHICH MEANS I LOST THE POWER OF THE CYLINDERS THAT HAD THE FOULED SPARK PLUGS. NOW THEY WANT ME TO WAIT TILL IT HAPPENS AGAIN BEFORE THEY WILL REPAIR THE ENGINE AND FOLLOW THE CLASS ACTION THAT THEY AGREED TO FOLLOW. WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF I WAS PULLING INTO TRAFFIC AND LOST 50% OF MY POWER OR AM MERGING ONTO AN INTERSTATE.

1. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The engine piston rings failed or malfunctioned. These parts were previously replaced under a Honda recall in 2018 due to excessive oil consumption. The same issue has returned — the vehicle is again burning oil. The engine and related components remain available for inspection upon request. 2. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The excessive oil consumption can cause low engine oil levels, which may lead to engine damage or stalling while driving. A sudden loss of engine power could increase the risk of an accident, especially at highway speeds or in traffic. Additionally, the burning oil produces smoke that can obstruct visibility for the driver and nearby vehicles. im scared it might damager my life or the life of others. 3. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Yes. The issue was confirmed by a Honda dealership, which verified that the vehicle is consuming excessive oil. However, they stated that the vehicle is no longer covered under warranty, despite the same issue being repaired under the 2018 recall. 4. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? Yes. The Honda dealership (manufacturer’s authorized representative) inspected the vehicle and confirmed the oil consumption problem. It has not been inspected by police or insurance representatives. 5. Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Yes. The vehicle displayed low oil level warnings, and I had to add oil between scheduled oil changes. These symptoms reappeared around 2021, approximately three years after the piston rings were replaced under the recall.

MY CAR JERKS FROM THE VCM MODULE ON THE CAR USUALLY WHEN GOING AROUND 40 MPH ESPECIALLY WHEN ENTERING A TURN( I DRIVE MOSTLY ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY) WHICH MAKES ME FEEL UNSAFE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN CYLINDERS AND JERKS THE CAR HARD SOMETIMES AND GIVES A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF TORQUE. I RECENTLY PURCHASED A HONDA ACCORD CROSSTOUR 2010 WITH 72K MILES ON THEIR 3.5L V6 ENGINE AND WAS NOT INFORMED ABOUT HONDA BEING SUED FOR THEIR VCM MODULE THAT SHUTS DOWN CYLINDERS. IT RUINS PISTON RINGS, BREAKS ENGINE MOUNTS, MISFIRING, BURNING OIL, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST BENT PISTON RODS ALL SO YOU CAN GET 1 MORE MILE PER GALLON. I WOULD LIKE FOR HONDA TO DO A RECALL TO FIX ENGINES THAT ARE DAMAGED AND TO FINALLY GIVE THEIR BUYERS AN OPTION TO TURN THE VCM OFF WHICH IS KNOWN TO PREVENT THOSE PROBLEMS AND MAKE THE CAR NOT JERK.I GOT 75K MILES NOW AND JERKING HAS GOTTEN WORSE TO WHERE I'M TRYING TO FIND WAYS TO TURN IT OFF.

EXCESSIVE OIL BURNING - VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 100K MILES IS BURNING OIL. NO DIPSTICK READING FOR OIL IN ENGINE (FOR EVERY 3,000 MILES DRIVEN). CAR PINGS AND NO OR LITTLE POWER FROM ENGINE DUE TO OIL LOSS. DEALER TEST STATED 1/2QT OF OIL USED EVERY 1,000 MILES. TYPICAL HONDA OIL CHANGE IS EVERY, 7,500 MILES (PER THEIR MANUAL) - IF WAITED THAT LONG NO OIL WOULD BE IN ENGINE. DANGEROUS AND SIGNIFICANT ISSUE - HONDA STATED IT WILL NOT FIX AND STATED 1/2 QT OF OIL BURNED EVERY 1,000 MILES IS NOT EXCESSIVE OR SIGNIFICANT !! - FROM A CAR OWNER, IT IS VERY SIGNIFICANT. COMPOUND THIS WITH THE MONTHS AND MONTHS WAIT FOR THE TAKATA RECALL FOR AIR BAGS ISSUE - THE HONDA 2010 CRV HAS SIGNIFICANT ISSUES. I HAVE A CO-WORKER THAT HAS A 2010 ACURA WITH 300,000 MILES AND OIL LOSS ISSUES.

I HAVE A BROKEN AIRBAG SENSOR WIRE UNDER MY FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. THE WIRE BROKE ON IT'S OWN FROM SIMPLY MOVING THE SEAT FOR MY DAUGHTER TO GET IN THE BACK SEAT. HONDA WANTS OVER $400 TO REPLACE THIS AND CLAIMS THE WIRE LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN CUT. HOWEVER I AM THE ONLY OWNER OF THIS VEHICLE & NEVER CUT THIS WIRE. I TOOK THE CAR TP ANOTHER AUTO SHOP WHO GAVE ME THEIR OPINION THE WIRE SIMPLY BROKE THRU NORMAL USE. I BELIEVE HONDA NEEDS TO REPAIR THIS AT NO COST AS IT'S A SAFETY CONCERN & NOW THE AIRBAG LIGHT STAYS LIT UP AT ALL TIMES & I DON'T KNOW IF THE AIRBAGS WILL WORK IN AN ACCIDENT. I CONTACTED HONDA AGAIN TODAY ABOUT THIS & EVEN WITH THE OPINION OF AN AUTO SHOP THEY ARE SAYING THEY CAN'T HELP SINCE THE VEHICLE ISN'T UNDER WARRANTY.

MY SRS LIGHT CAME ON AND WHEN I TOOK IT TO HONDA OF FISHERS IN INDIANA I WAS TOLD IT WOULD BE A $100 JUST TO RUN THE DIAGNOSTICS AND SINCE MY SPECIFIC MODEL OF CAR ISN'T UNDER A CURRENT RECALL I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR ANY REPAIRS NEEDED OUT OF POCKET. THIS DOESN'T SEEM FAIR AS MY CAR SHOULD HAVE A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON SEAT BELTS AND RELATED SRS COMPONENTS.

I BOUGHT MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD 2DR LX-S (5A) BRAND NEW IN AUGUST 2010 AND HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH IT SINCE - MOST OF WHICH HAS GOTTEN WORSE THAT I AM SCARED FOR MY SAFETY AND THOSE ON THE ROAD. - WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH HIGHWAY AND NON HIGHWAY SPEEDS RANGING FROM 15MPH - 60MPH SEVERE RUBBER SMELL AND GRINDING OF BRAKES-SOUNDED AS IF THE ENTIRE CAR WAS GOING TO FALL APART. WHEN I GOT HOME THE REAR BRAKES AND PADS WERE COMPLETELY RUSTED, BLACK AND WERE EXTREMELY HOT TO TOUCH. SCHAUMBURG DEALERSHIP SAID THE REAR PADS WEREN'T INSTALLED CORRECTLY. -EVERYDAY SINCE MILE 25,000 MY CAR WHEN STARTED AT ANY TIME HAS MADE A LARGE AND EXTREMELY LOUD CRANKING NOISE THAT LASTS ABOUT 2 SECONDS. SCHAUMBURG DEALERSHIP DAYS THIS IS RELATED TO THE I-VTEC 4-CYLINDER ENGINE BUT IT WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. (THIS WAS AT 71,000 MILES). NO FUSS HAD BEEN MADE HAD THEY SAID IT IS COMPLETELY FINE WITH THE CRANKING NOISE. -WHEN TURNING AND DRIVING IN GENERAL THE CAR MAKES A WEIRD WHINING NOISE FROM 0MPH - 45MPH I'VE NOTICED THIS MANY TIMES AS WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT MY VEHICLE IAS EXTREMELY UNEVEN. THIS ALSO COULD RELATE TO THE STARTING WHEEL BEING 5 INCHES TO THE RIGHT WHEN THE WHEELS ARE STRAIGHT; I'VE PAID FOR MULTIPLE ALIGNMENTS AND IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. -LASTLY THE BREAKING SYSTEM IS TERRIBLE AND DOES NOT STOP CORRECTLY. I NOW HAVE TO SLOW DOWN ALMOST TO A COMPLETE STOP 500 FEET PRIOR SO THEY WORK; I HAVE TO DRIVE EXTREMELY SLOW AND BE VERY CAUTIOUS. *TR

BURNING OIL EXCESSIVELY SINCE I HAVE HAD THE CAR. I NEVER GOT A RECALL NOTICE. HAVING TO ADD A QT OR BETTER A WEEK. JUNE 12 IT STALLED OUT ALL THE WAY HOME FROM WORK. THAT WAS A SUNDAY. JUST CHECKED THE OIL ON THURSDAY. OIL WAS OKAY IN THURSDAY. ON SUNDAY NO OIL TO SHOW ON DIPSTICK. BURNT AT LEAST 3 QTS IN LESS THAN 200 MILES! DRAINED WHAT LITTLE OIL WAS LEFT. CHANGED FILTER AND PUT NEW OIL IN. STILL WOULD NOT RUN. CHANGED SPARK PLUGS AND IT RAN BETTER BUT STILL HAS A SLIGHT MIS. DTC P0303. THE DEALERSHIP DELETED THE CODE AND SAID IT WASN'T A CODE IN THERE. WILL NOT DO ANYTHING. I HAD IT READ BEFORE I TOOK IT THERE AND HAVE A PICTURE OF IT. THE PAINT HAS BEEN CHIPPING OFF FOR OVER A YEAR, NOT WHERE ROCKS HIT. PLACES THAT ARE CURVED OR ROUNDED. EDGES OF THE ROOF OR FENDER. IT'S ONLY 6 YEARS OLD. HONDA DOESN'T STAND BY EITHER OF THESE ISSUES. NEVER AGAIN WILL I OWN A HONDA. THE CAR IS NOT LEAKING OIL AND IT IS NOT SMOKING. THE OIL IS GOING SOME PLACE. AND THAT IS CAUSING SERIOUS DAMAGE TO MY CAR. NOT TO MENTION THE DAMAGE THAT'S ALREADY BEEN CAUSED. A SOFTWARE UPDATE DOESN'T FIX THE DAMAGE THAT'S BEEN CAUSED ALREADY.

THE PAST TWO TIMES I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS BELOW THE DIPSTICK. BOTH TIMES I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE WITH 20% OIL LIFE SHOWING. SHIFTING FROM 2ND TO 3RD SOMETIMES GETS "BLOCKED". THAT IS THE ONLY WAY I CAN DESCRIBE IT, YOU GO TO SHIFT AND CANT GET INTO GEAR, EITHER HAVE TO GO BACK TO 2ND OR BACK TO NEUTRAL AND THEN BACK IN. THE "DOUBLE PUMP SHIFT" USUALLY WORKS.

TWO WEEKS AGO, I WAS DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE CAR FELT AS IF IT WERE SWITCHING GEARS SLUGGISHLY. THEN I NOTICED THE ENGINE LIGHT HAD COME ON. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO O'REILLY'S TO INVESTIGATE THE ENGINE LIGHT WHICH WAS CAUSED BY A P3400 CODE/BANK 1. I RESEARCHED THE CODE AND PURCHASED 2 QUARTS OF THE 0W20 SYNTHETIC OIL. THE LIGHT WENT OUT AFTER DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES. I THEN MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE, HOWEVER THE DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED FOR THE MEMORIAL DAY HOLIDAY AND RESCHEDULED FOR TOMORROW (3 DAYS LATER). THE LIGHT HAS SINCE COME BACK ON; I AGAIN CHECKED THE OIL AND HAD TO ADD 2 QUARTS OF 0W20 SYNTHETIC OIL. ONCE AGAIN, THE CAR IS SLUGGISH AND HAS A NEW SYMPTOM OF KNOCKING WHEN ACCELERATING. I WILL HAVE IT TOWED IN THE MORNING FOR THE SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE TO ENSURE NOTHING IS DAMAGED. I HAVE DONE ADDITIONAL RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT I HAD RECEIVED NOTIFICATION FROM HONDA LAST YEAR IN REFERENCE TO A CLASS ACTION SETTLEMENT FOR SERVICE BULLETIN (#11-033) THAT ADDRESSED EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION FROM A "SYSTEMATIC DESIGN DEFECT THAT ENABLES OIL TO ENTER INTO THE ENGINE'S COMBUSTION CHAMBER. THIS LEADS TO PREMATURE SPARK PLUG DEGRADATION AND ENGINE MALFUNCTION." HOPEFULLY, THE DEALERSHIP WILL REPAIR THE DEFECT ONCE AND FOR ALL.

WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PASS A SEMI-TRUCK ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY, MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD V6 LOST POWER A FEW MINUTES AFTER ACCELERATION. THE TRUCK DRIVER PROBABLY FELT THAT I WAS BEING RUDE AND SLAMMING ON MY BREAKS, BUT I WAS TRYING TO MOVE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD BECAUSE MY CAR WAS LOSING POWER. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT SHOP THAT SPECIALIZES IN HONDA MAKES/MODELS. UPON REVIEW OF THE VEHICLE, THE SHOP FOUND OIL IN ALL THREE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS. MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD IS PART OF THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR MISFIRE AND OIL CONSUMPTION (LEAKAGE). I CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND NOTIFIED THE COMPANY ABOUT THE ISSUE WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PASS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THE INDEPENDENT SHOP THAT THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS TYPE OF ISSUE. I ASKED IF IT WAS RELATED TO THE ISSUES IDENTIFIED IN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT, BOTH STATED THEY COULDN'T UNDERSTAND "WHY OIL WOULD BE IN THE CONVERTERS". I HAVE USED THE DEALERSHIPS SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR ALL WORK MINUS THE ALTERNATOR (2 WEEKS AGO). A NEW SHORTBLOCK WAS INSTALLED 20K MILES AGO (PART OF THE MISFIRE/OIL ISSUE). MY MAIN CONCERN IS THE SITUATION OF LOSING POWER IN THE MIDDLE OF ACCELERATION. I WAS EXTREMELY LUCKY TODAY (AND I DID NOT HAVE A SOLID YELLOW LINE WHEN I WAS PASSING - PRETTY MUCH A STRAIGHT AWAY). I TOLD HONDA AMERICA THEY NEEDED TO LOOK INTO THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE ISSUES WITH THE 2010 HONDA ACCORD V6 GOES BEYOND MISFIRE AND OIL CONSUMPTION. I ATTEMPTED TO GOOGLE ACCIDENTS AND ISSUES WITH 2010 HONDA ACCORDS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND NHTSA SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE (POTENTIAL CAUSES FOR ACCIDENTS INVOLVING 2010 HONDA ACCORD V6 MODELS). *TR

HIGHWAY SPEED VIBRATION AT VARIOUS INTENSITIES, MOSTLY AT SPEEDS OVER 60. CAR SHAKES AND VIBRATES. HONDA DEALERSHIP EVALUATED SITUATION AND NOTED NO PROBLEMS WITH SUSPENSION, REPLACED FRONT AND SIDE MOTOR MOUNTS WITHOUT SOLVING PROBLEM. FACTORY TECH STATED THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN EVALUATED AS "BAD TIRES". CAR HAD PROBLEM WITH PRIOR TIRES AND CURRENT TIRES HAD LESS THAN 2,000 MILES ON THEM. TIRES WERE REBALANCED, ALIGNED AND ROTATED - NO IMPROVEMENT. SAME PROBLEM WITH SECOND CAR (SAME MAKE/MODEL 2008). INTERNET SEARCHING INDICATES THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH 2008 THROUGH AT LEAST 2012 VEHICLES. DEALER TRIED TO TEST THE TIRE ISSUE BY SWAPPING TIRES FROM ANOTHER USED VEHICLE ON THE LOT. THEY TEST DROVE 3 VEHICLES TO FIND ONE BUT ALL THREE HAD THE SAME VIBRATION ISSUE. I THINK THERE IS A DESIGN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND THE PROBLEM IS BEING IGNORED BY HONDA (MUST BE A HUGE ISSUE AND/OR A VERY EXPENSIVE FIX). I HAVE SEEN STATEMENTS THAT THIS IS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF THIS VEHICLE" AND NOTED OTHER SIMILAR EXPLANATIONS. IN MY MIND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

I OWN A 2010 HONDA ACCORD V6. I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR ONE YEAR. THE MILEAGE IS JUST OVER 18,000 MILES. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR INSPECTION ON YESTERDAY AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY REAR BRAKES WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED WITHIN THE NEXT THREE MONTHS. I HAVE OWNED HONDAS EVERY SINCE 1989 AND PREMATURE BRAKE WEAR HAS NEVER OCCURRED WITH ANY OF THE HONDA THAT I HAVE OWNED. PLEASE TELL ME WHAT I CAN DO TO GET SOME TYPE OF RESOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE YOUR BRAKES ARE THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN A CAR. ALSO, THIS CAR HAS A FAULTY FRONT BUMPER. IT IS ATTACHED TO THE CAR BY SNAPS. THESE SNAPS BREAK AND THE BUMPER STARTS SEPARATING FROM THE CAR. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SENT IT TO THEIR BODY SHOP BUT THE BUMPER IS STILL TRY TO SEPARATE FROM THE CAR. IF THE BUMPER COMES OFF IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. *TR

AFTER 9 YEARS OF PERFECT SATISFACTION WITH A 2001 HONDA ACCORD,I PURCHASED A NEW 2010 HONDA ACCORD ON 08/2010. LOUD WHINING NOISE STARTED AFTER APPROX. 1000 MILES OF DRIVING. HEARD WHINE, LOUD AND CONSISTENT ON STARTUP AND THE WHINE INTENSIFIES AS THE ENGINE WARMS WITH DRIVING. DEALER REPLACED POWER STEERING PUMP ON MY THIRD TRIP TO HONDA SERVICE.NOISE CONTINUES EVEN LOUDER WITH NEW PUMP. A RETURN TRIP TO HONDA DEALER I WAS TOLD IT IS A NOISE CHARACTERISTIC OF THIS MODEL. THE NERVE RACKING WHINE IS DEADENED ONLY WITH THE RADIO VOL. TURNED UP. TWO OTHER PROBLEMS CREATE VERY STRESSFUL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THE HEAD REST EXTEND TOO MUCH FORWARD CREATING SEVERE NECK STRAIN AND THE STIFF FEEL IN THE SEATS REQUIRE CONSTANT SHIFTING OF POSITION. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE NOR RECOMMEND A HONDA TO ANYONE. MY MAIN CONCERN NOW: IS THIS WHINE AN INDICATOR FOR AN UNSAFE SITUATION OR FOR A MORE SERIOUS MECHANICAL PROBLEM? *TR

UNABLE TO GET THE LOCK MECHANISM TO ENGAGE TO START THE CAR. MY MOTHER HAS BEEN LEFT STRANDED FIVE TIMES DUE TO LOCK MECHANISM SEIZING AND HER BEING UNABLE TO START CAR. SHE HAS CALLED THE HONDA SERVICE DEPT. TWICE AND THEY RECOMMENDED PULLING HARD ON STEERING WHEEL (TOWARD CHEST OF DRIVER). THEY OBVIOUSLY KNEW TO RECOMMEND THIS REMEDY. BUT MY MOTHER IS 90 POUNDS AND FRAIL. IT TOOK STRONG MALES (STRANGERS IN A PARKING LOT,MOST RECENTLY WHILE IT WAS SNOWING) TO PULL THE STEERING WHEEL OUT TO AFFECT THE REMEDY SO THE CAR WOULD START. HONDA HAS NOT OFFERED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND TRIES TO BLAME HER FOR "LEANING ON THE STEERING WHEEL" AS SHE EXITS THE VEHICLE. 90 POUNDS??? MY EXTENDED FAMILY HAS OWNED 20+ HONDA'S IN THE PAST - INCLUDING ME OWNING A 2009 EX-L. WE ARE ALL NOW DISAPPOINTED. NOT TO MENTION THAT MY MOTHER WAS MADE TO WAIT IN HONDA SERVICE FOR HER INITIAL 3000 MILE OIL CHANGE FOR 2 HOURS. THEY ALSO CHARGE HER FOR ROTATING THE TIRES AT 3000 MILES...TALKING ABOUT TAKING ADVANTAGE OF AN ELDERLY WIDOW..... SHE WENT LATER TO HAVE THE AIR CHECKED IN HER TIRES BECAUSE OF THE LOW PRESSURE WARNING (REMEMBER, SHE IS RECENTLY WIDOWED WITH NO KNOWLEDGE OF CARS AND HER CHILDREN ARE HOURS AWAY) AND THEY MAD HER WAIT 1 HOUR FOR THIS. SHAME ON HONDA. HER CAR IS UP FOR SALE AND SO IS MINE. THE EXTENDED FAMILY WILL NO LONGER BUY HONDA'S. HER LOCAL DEALER WHERE SHE BOUGHT THE CAR IS ASHEBORO HONDA, ASHEBORO, NORTH CAROLINA. THEY HAVE THUS FAR BEEN INDIFFERENT TO HER SITUATION. *TR

THE CAR IS BRAND NEW. I TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE BUT DIDN'T NOTICE HOW UNCOMFORTABLE THE SEAT WAS IN SUCH A SHORT DRIVE. NOW THAT I DRIVE THE CAR EVERYDAY TO WORK, ABOUT A 45 MINUTE COMMUTE EACH WAY, ITS OBVIOUS THERE MUST BE SOME KIND OF DESIGN FLAW. I'VE ADJUSTED THE SEAT EVERY WHICH WAY POSSIBLE WITH SAME RESULT, TOTAL DISCOMFORT. I HARDLY EVER HAVE BACK PROBLEMS, NOW MY BACK HURTS EVERYDAY. MY CLAIM WAS SUBSTANTIATED WHEN I DECIDED TO GOOGLE THE PROBLEM AND FOUND THE SAME COMPLAINT BY MANY OTHER HONDA OWNERS FROM 2008 THRU 2010. I JUST CANNOT BELIEVE THAT A COMPANY WITH SUCH A GREAT REPUTATION FOR SOLID CARS CAN LET THIS GO ON AND NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERE'S A PROBLEM. *TR

I BOUGHT A NEW 2010 HONDA ACCORD AT MARIN HONDA IN LARKSPUR, CALIFORNIA ON SUNDAY 1/31/2010. BUT I DID NOT PICK UP THE CAR UNTIL MONDAY 2/1/2010 BECAUSE THE CAR WAS "NOT PREPARED" ON SUNDAY EVENING. I DROVE THE CAR HOME FROM THE DEALER IN THE AFTERNOON ON 2/1/2010 AND I BEGAN TO NOTICE A RATTLING NOISE COMING FROM THE HOOD ON DRIVER SIDE. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER ON TUESDAY MORNING WHERE A MECHANIC SUGGESTED THAT THE NOISE MAYBE COMING FROM THE DEFECTIVE HOUSING UNIT OF THE WINDSHIELD WIPER. THE MECHANIC ORDERED THE NEW PART BUT IT WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL NEXT WEEK. THE NOISE HAS BEEN PERSISTENT AND GETTING STRONGER/LOUDER WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND WHEN THE CAR IS IDLING AT INTERSECTION. THE STEERING WHEEL ALSO APPEARED TO SHAKE WHENEVER THIS LOUD RATTLING NOISE CAME OUT. I AM AFRAID THAT THIS PROBLEM MAYBE MORE THAT JUST A DEFECTIVE HOUSING PART OF THE WINDSHIELD WIPER, HENCE I AM REPORTING THIS TO ASSURE THAT ELECTRICAL PROBLEM OR BRAKES PROBLEM ARE NOT THE ISSUE FOR HONDA (IN LIEU OF WHAT IS GOING ON WITH TOYOTA CARS AT THE PRESENT TIME). PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAD SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FOR THE NEW MODEL HONDA ACCORD. I HAD BEEN A LOYAL CUSTOMER OF HONDA BUT THIS INCIDENCE IS MAKING ME VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR QUALITY ASSURANCE SERVICE BEFORE RELEASING NEW CARS INTO THE MARKET. I THANK YOU FOR THE IMPORTANT WORK THAT YOU DO TO KEEP CONSUMERS LIKE ME SAFE ON THE ROAD. *TR
