2010 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EVERY WEEK, ONE QUART OF OIL NEEDED TO BE ADDED TO THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE CONSUMED AN ABNORMAL AMOUNT OF OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.

TOLD BY DEALER THIS NOSE MASK AFTERMARKET RECALL DOES NOT EFFECT MY VEHICLE. YOU SAY IT DOES.

ABS/ AIRBAG SYSTEM STAYING ON AND IT APPEARS TO BE AFFECTING CHARGING SYSTEM ISSUES AND/OR ALTERNATOR! DIAGNOSTIC TEST SHOW ABS & CHARGING SYSTEM ISSUES. MY CAR IS NOW INOPERABLE!!

TWO ISSUES I AM HAVING THAT TONS OF PEOPLE ONLINE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT. ONE ISSUE IS THE VARIABLE TIMING SOLENOID. AT STARTUP THE VEHICLE MAKES A LOUD RATTLING NOISE FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS. THE OTHER ISSUE IS THE EXTERIOR WEATHER STRIP IS ALLOWING WATER TO LEAK INTO MY CAR.

THE CAR BURNS A LOT OF ENGINE OIL. THERE ARE NO LEAKS, NO ISSUES BUT ITS BURNING SO QUICKLY THAT I HAVE TO PUT 1 LITER OF OIL EVERY 2000-3000 MILES. THE MECHANICS SAY ITS A FACTORY ISSUE AS ALMOST EVERY CAR OF 8TH GENERATION DO THAT.

ONCE A YEAR WHILE DRIVING THE FRONT END OF THE CAR STARTS MAKING A LOUD THUMPING NOISE. IT ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE THE ENGINE IS THUMPING AGAINST THE FRONT HOOD. THE CAR WILL THEN COMPLETELY BREAK DOWN. WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR AGAIN IT WILL NOT START, BUT THE LIGHTS AND RADIO WILL TURN ON. WHEN I TOOK MY CAR TO HONDA THE ADVISOR FIRST ADVISED THE PISTON RINGS IN THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACE, BUT I GUESS SINCE THE CAR SERVICE MANAGER DID NOT WANT TO REPLACE IT HE HAD THE TEAM REPLACE MY STARK PLUGS.

SRS LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF TOOK MY CAR TO HONDA AND WAS TOLD NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT. I HAD AIR BAGS REPLACED LAST YEAR. I HOPE NOTHING HAZARD HAPPENS TO ME OR OTHERS WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE.

ROOF MOULDING PREMATURELY WEARING OUT/DAMAGE. ALLOWING WATER TO SEEP INTO SEAMS INTO HEADLINER NEAR A-BEAMS OF PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE. WATER ALSO DRIPPED FROM HEADLINER AND STAINED IT, POTENTIALLY DISTRACTING DRIVER FROM ROAD. SIDE AIRBAGS POTENTIALLY EXPOSED TO WATER. PROBLEM WAS DISCOVERED AFTER CAR WAS LEFT OUTSIDE DURING RAIN STORM ALLOWING WATER TO POOL ON ROOF.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THE AIR BAG INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, WHICH WAS A SAFETY CONCERN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT AND OCCURRED UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. AIRPORT MARINA HONDA (5850 WEST CENTINELA AVE, LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA 90045, (310) 651-8629) WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A PRINT OUT OF THE FOLLOWING DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODES (DTC): 92-20 - OPEN OR SHORT TO GROUND IN PASSENGER AIR BAG CUTOUT INDICATOR AND 83-25 - INTERNAL FAILURE OF FRONT PASSENGER AIR BAG WEIGHT SENSOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER PREVIOUSLY PERFORMED AN UNKNOWN NHTSA RECALL REPAIR FOR THE TAKATA AIR BAG ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 114,022.

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.
