2005 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

TAKATA INFLATORS - I NEVER GOT A RECALL NOTICE AND THEY ARE SAYING THAT MY AIRBAG WAS FIXED IN 2014 I KNOW FOR SURE I HAVE NOT BEEN INTO A DEALERSHIP TO GET THIS FIXED - HOW DO I GET MY AIRBAG FIXED?

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND I WHEN I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE CAR KEPT UP THE SAME SPEED. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND IT DID NOT SLOW THE CAR. I DOWNSHIFTED ALL THE WAY DOWN TO FIRST GEAR YET WAS UNABLE TO SLOW THE CAR. I FINALLY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND WAS ABLE TO STOP THE CAR ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. I HAD TO GO THROUGH A RED LIGHT AND FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO CROSS TRAFFIC. NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN THIS INCIDENT BUT THERE WERE FOUR OF US IN THE CAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO MY MECHANIC AND HE DETERMINED THAT THE CAUSE WAS THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY FAILURE. IT IS NOW REPAIRED. *TR

HAVE INFORMATION THAT THE AIR BAG AND SIDE AIR BAG MAY NOT BE WORKING PROPERLY ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AND THE SHOULDER STRAP ON THE SAME SIDE DOESN'T RELEASE AS IT SHOULD. THANKS

STEERING WHEEL VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN AT LOW SPEED. THIS STARTED ABOUT A MONTH AGO (NOVEMBER 2016) AND CONTINUES TODAY (12/22/2016).

I HAVE A 2005 HONDA ACCORD EX NAV THAT HAS PROBLEMS WITH THE SRS AIRBAG LIGHT STAYING ON. I'VE CONTACT HONDA ABOUT WHY MY CAR WAS NOT IN THE RECALL LIKE THE OTHER ACCORDS IN THE SAME YEAR MODEL. THEY CLAIM THERE ISN'T A PROBLEM. A SRS AIRBAG LIGHT THAT STAYS ON IS CLEARLY A PROBLEM THAT SEEMS TO BE CONSISTENT WITH THE AIRBAG RECALL OF THE OTHER VEHICLES. I ASK THEM TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR BUT THEY REFUSED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH AND SHIFTING INTO SECOND GEAR/ACCELERATING, THE VEHICLE WOULD AGGRESSIVELY SHAKE BEFORE BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE. THE FAILURE RECURRED AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE'S ENGINE REVVED AND EVENTUALLY STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT NOTIFIED THE MANUFACTURER WHO REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 11V395000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,200. UPDATED 01/11/2017*CT *TR

HAVING THE DREADED OIL BURNING PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE AND HAD TO REPLACE MY ENGINE 4 TIMES SINCE DECEMBER 2015. I TRIED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE 1ST TIME THINKING THEY WOULD HAVE A SOLUTION TO THIS KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR AND MAKE OF THEIR CAR. THEY PLAYED EXTREMELY DUMB AND SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF THE ISSUE I WAS HAVING AND THAT I WAS THE FIRST ONE THEY HEARD IT FROM EVEN THOUGH IT'S WORLDWIDE ON MANY THREADS & FORUMS. THE PROBLEM STARTS OFF THE SAME THE OIL LIGHTS STARTS FLASHING (MEANING THE OIL LEVEL IS LOW), THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS COMES ON, AND THEN YOUR SCREWED DUE TO A BLOWN PISTON OR POSSIBLE ENGINE SEIZURE IF YOU CONTINUE TO DRIVE IT. SOMEHOW THE OIL BURNS INTERNALLY AND CONSUMES ALL THE OIL WITHIN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. 200 MILES INTO A FRESH OIL CHANGE AND THE CAR IS BONE DRY WITH NO LEAKS SPOT. EACH ENGINE I REPLACED IT WITH HAD BETWEEN 50K-80K MILES ON IT AND THE SPARK PLUGS, WIRES, OIL FILTER AND OIL WAS REPLACED EVERY TIME. WITHIN 1-2 MONTHS THE SAME OIL BURNING PROBLEM HAPPENS. I SPENT WELL OVER $8,000, ALMOST LOST MY JOB AND HAD TO DROP OUT OF COLLEGE DUE TO THE INCONVENIENCE IT HAS CAUSED ME ALL WITHIN A 10 MONTH PERIOD.

MY CAR HAS LARGE GRAY SPOT AROUND THE WINDOW FRAME AND ROOF TOP WHERE THE PAINT HAS FADED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WATER ENTERED INTO THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE NEAR THE CURTAIN AIR BAGS. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT PROVIDED NO REMEDY. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V320000 (AIR BAGS), 04V551000 (AIR BAGS), AND 16V178000 (AIR BAGS). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

PAINT HAS DETERIORATED ALL OVER THE VEHICLE. THERE ARE 'BALD SPOTS' WHERE THE METAL IS EXPOSED. WE HAVE SEEN MANY OTHER HONDAS IN THIS AREA WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. HONDA HAS NOT RESPONDED TO OUR REQUEST FOR INFORMATION AND/OR ASSISTANCE.
