2007 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

MY HONDA ACCORD 2007 LX HAS ITS FRONT PASSENGER AND DRIVER AIRBAGS REPLACED WITH PART NUMBER 04785SDA306 AND 04770SDA305 IN NOVEMBER 2014 AND AUGUST 2015. IT WAS REPLACED WITH THE EXACT SAME PART THAT WAS IT WAS RECALLED FOR. DO THE 2 AIRBAGS HAVE AMMONIUM NITRATE IN THEM? IF SO WHY ARE THEY BEING REPLACED WITH THE SAME PART? ALSO THE WAS A DESICCANT PUT IN?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

WAS ON WAY HOME FROM A TRIP WAS OVER 2 HOURS AWAY, WHILE ON FREEWAY THE CAR STOPS AND AND RPM WENT TO RED. I PULLED OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD AND TURNED CAR OFF. WAITED 10 MINUTES AND STARTED IT AND DROVE THE FEW FEET TO REST AREA ENTRANCE AND RPM WENT HIGH AGAIN. AM 32 WEEKS PREGNANT I HAD MY TWO. DAUGHTERS AND 21 MONTH OLD SON. WE WERE STANDED AT REST STOP FOR 7 HOURS. THE SITUATION WAS DANGEROUS THT WITHOUT WARNING THE CAR STOPS GASING AND CAR WOULD NOT MOVE, HAD ANOTHER VEHICLE BEEN BEHIND ME WE WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. WE WERE VERY LUCKY NO ONE WAS BEHIND US AT THAT MOMENT. THERE WAS NO FUNNY NOISE NO DASH LIGHTS COMING ON. NO INDICATION SOMETHING WAS ABOUT TO HAPPEN. SOMETHING THAT COULD HAVE COST US OUR LIVES, SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS. A RECALL

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, BATTERY LIGHT TURNED ON AND OFF, STEERING WHEEL BECAME STIFF, CAR TURNED OFF AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED IT SELF.

NORMAL CITY DRIVING WHEN I START OUT FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTS IT GIVE A HARD BUCK LIKE ITS DEAD THE TRANSMISSION INDICATOR LIGHT GOES OUT THEN RIGHT BACK ON. THE REST OF THE SHIFTING GOES SMOOTH IT ONLY SEEMS TO BE FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. ALSO MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYS ON NOW. I LOOKED UP THE PROBLEM ON LINE THE ECM BCM WAS REPROGRAMED IN 2011 BY JOHNSON HONDA STUART FLORIDA. I CALLED THE DEALER TODAY THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY NEVER HEARD OF ANY PROBLEM INVOLVING THE SECONDARY SHIFT BEARING BUT YET ALL MY SIGNS THE CAR ID DOING POINTS TO THIS PROBLEM. THE SIGHT I VISITED FOR THE INFORMATION SAID TO REFER TO IT A RECALL # R89. HOPE YOU CAN HELP ME.

REAR BRAKES. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON WEAR OF HONDA BRAKES. MINE (FRONT AND REAR) WERE REPLACED SAME DAY, AT 40,200 MI. AT 72,700, THE REAR BRAKES NEEDED REPLACEMENT WITH JUST 3 % LIFE LEFT OR ONLY 32,500 MILES. THIS IS NEARLY HALF LIFE. THE FRONT BRAKES MY REPAIR SHOP NOTES HAS AT LEAST 30% MORE LIFE.

TAKATA RECALL. OUR HONDA ACCORD 2007 AIRBAG INFLATOR UNDER RECALL WAS REPLACED IN 2014 AT DELRAY HONDA, BOCA RATON, FL. IN TODAY'S NYTIMES, MAY 4, 2016, A NEWS ARTICLE STATES THAT THE PROBLEM NOW FOUND IS THAT AMMONIUM NITRATE IN THE TAKATA INFLATOR IS NOW THE MOST CRITICALLY UNSAFE PROBLEM IN THE AIRBAG. IN A CONVERSATION TODAY WITH A HONDA REPRESENTATIVE NAMED SHERYL, SHE STATED SHE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THE AMMONIUM NITRATE PROBLEM, AND THAT OUR INFLATOR HAD BEEN REPAIRED IN 2014. I REQUESTED THAT SHERYL GIVE ME THE PHONE NUMBER OF A SUPERVISOR WHO MIGHT KNOW MORE ABOUT THE AMMONIUM NITRATE PROBLEMS & REPAIR SOLUTIONS. SHE STATED SHE COULDN'T GIVE OUT ANY NUMBER, OR CONNECT ME, BUT SHE COULD SEND A REQUEST TO A SUPERVISOR LAURA, AND ADDED THAT LAURA WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO GIVE ME ANY EXPLANATION OR INFORMATION DIFFERENT THAT SHERYL'S. THERE ARE SIX FAMILY MEMBERS, THE YOUNGEST AN 8 YEAR OLD WHO SOMETIMES RIDE IN THE PASSENGER SEAT OF OUR 2007 HONDA ACCORD, AND WISH TO RECEIVE ANSWERS TO WHAT HONDA PLANS TO DO TO REMOVE THE INFLATOR WITH AMMONIUM NITRATE IN OUR HONDA, AND WHAT WILL BE THE CHEMICAL COMPOUND THAT WILL BE USED INSTEAD OF AMMONIUM NITRATE. WE WISH TO BE SAFE AND SOUND IN A CAR, NOT ANXIOUS THAT THERE COULD BE A PROBLEM CAUSING SERIOUS INJURIES, OR GOD FORBID, DEATH TO ANYONE. IF I DON'T HEAR FROM A HONDA SUPERVISOR RE: WHAT SOLUTIONS WILL HONDA HAS TO REPLACE THE AMMONIUM NITRATE, OR INSTALL AN SAFE AIRBAG IN OUR CARE WITH A SAFE INFLATOR & CHEMICAL SOLUTION, I WILL LET YOU KNOW.

TAKATA RECALL WHY ARE SOME CARS WITH TAKATA AIR BAGS BEING RECALLED AND OTHERS ARE NOT. IF MY CAR HAS TAKATA AIR BAGS THEN IT SHOULD BE RECALLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDOWS FAILED TO OPEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 160,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I LOWERED THE PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW TODAY, AND WAS UNABLE TO RAISE IT. I WAS TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT THE PROBLEM IS THE REGULATOR. I HAVE RECENTLY READ ABOUT THE CLASS ACTION SUIT IN CALIFORNIA CONCERNING THE SAME PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, AS I WAS TRAVELING A THREE HOUR TREK ON A SATURDAY AFTERNOON DURING COLD, RAINY WEATHER. NEEDLESS TO SAY, HONDA DEALERSHIP WAS THREE HOURS AWAY AND WERE CLOSED UPON ARRIVAL. I AM FORCED TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY FOR A TEMPORARY GLASS REPLACEMENT AND ALSO TO HAVE THE WINDOW PROBLEM RESOLVED.
