2005 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

I HAVE RECENTLY BEGAN TO EXPERIENCE ISSUES WITH MY HONDA WHERE IT SUDDENLY STALLS WHILE MOVING. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED SOME CLICKING NOISES AND SURGES AS IF THE TRANSMISSION IS HAVING ISSUES. I SEE THAT THERE WAS A RECALL IN 2011 FOR HONDA TO REPLACE THE TCM (TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE); HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE WAS NOT PART OF THIS RECALL AND I BELIEVE I AM NOW EXPERIENCE THE VERY PROBLEMS THAT THE RECALL FIX WAS TO RESOLVE. I AM SEEING THE VERY COMPLAINT ON YOUR SITE FROM OTHERS WHO ALSO HAVE HONDA ACCORDS FOR THE SAME YEAR OTHERS. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN REGULARLY SERVICED AND THERE HAVE NEVER BEEN ANY INDICATION OF TRANSMISSION ISSUES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V320000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.

THE TRANSMISSION FAILED AT APPROXIMATELY 70,000 MILES WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL. THE ENGINE BEGAN REVVING, AND THE VEHICLE LOST ALL ACCELERATION. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, I APPLIED THE BRAKES, PUT ON THE HAZARD LIGHTS, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. I THEN RESTARTED THE CAR, SHIFTED INTO DRIVE, AND ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE, BUT THE VEHICLE BEGAN ROLLING BACKWARDS TOWARD TRAFFIC LINED UP BEHIND ME. I THEN REAPPLIED THE BRAKE, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, AND AGAIN SHUT THE CAR OFF. DUE TO CONSTRUCTION IN THE AREA, THERE WAS NO WHERE TO PULL THE CAR OVER TO, SO I WAS STRANDED BLOCKING TRAFFIC.

WITHOUT NOTICE OR CAUSE THE PASSENGER WINDOW AND BOTH BACK SEAT SEAT WINDOWS STOP RESPONDING TO THE POWER CONTROLS. THIS CAUSED THE THREE WINDOWS TO NOT OPEN, AND HAS BEEN CONSISTENT SINCE IT ORIGINALLY HAPPENED OVER A MONTH AGO.

MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT OF A GROCERY STORE. I WAS ON MY HOME FROM WORK AND HAD STOPPED TO PURCHASE A FEW ITEMS. THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. I HAD BEEN IN THE STORE FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES WHEN I HEARD THE LOUDSPEAKER ASKING FOR THE OWNER OF A 2005 GOLD HONDA ACCORD TO COME TO THE CUSTOMER SERVICE COUNTER. WHEN I APPROACHED THE PERSON BEHIND THE COUNTER, HE ASKED ME TO LOOK OUTSIDE TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE ON FIRE WAS, IN FACT, MY CAR. SMOKE WAS COMING FROM THE ENGINE OF MY CAR AND TWO VEHICLES FROM THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WERE TRYING TO PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. HONDA INSISTED IT WAS MY FAULT, BUT I FOUND OUT MUCH LATER THAT ENGINE FIRES HAD OCCURRED IN OTHER 2005 ACCORDS. STATE FARM GAVE ME THE REPLACEMENT VALUE FOR THE VEHICLE, BUT IT WASN'T ENOUGH TO PURCHASE A CAR OF EQUAL VALUE. THE HONDA ACCORD WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I FELT I SHOULD HAVE BEEN COMPENSATED FOR THE ENTIRE COST OF THE CAR. PLUS, IF THE FIRE HAD OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING, I MIGHT NOT BE HERE WRITING THIS LETTER TO YOU. I WAS JUST RECENTLY MADE AWARE OF SOME OF THE RECALLS FROM HONDA FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM. I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD TAKE OWNERSHIP OF THIS PROBLEM AND COMPENSATE ME FAIRLY FOR MY LOSS. I HAVE THE VIN NUMBER AND ALL OF THE PAPERWORK FROM STATE FARM, INCLUDING PHOTOS OF THE DAMAGE TO CAR TAKEN AFTER THE FIRE. *TR

I HAVE A HONDA ACCORD V6 2005 MODEL CAR AND MAINTENANCE DONE AS PER MANUALS. I AM NOW GETTING JERKS WHILE ACCELERATING OR AFTER STARTING AND PUTTING CAR IN REVERSE GEAR.THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON NOW. I DID A CODE SCAN AND GETTING CODE P0741. THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH TRANSMISSION POWER. I DID SOME GOOGLE AND FOUND THAT HONDA HAD THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT IN THIS MODEL AND LOT OF CAR WERE RECALLED FOR THIS REASON. I FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 11V395000 ADDRESSING SIMILAR PROBLEM AND AS OF 23RD SEPTEMBER 2014, 1.5 MILLION (1512107) VEHICLES HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR SIMILAR ISSUE.THE HONDA RECALL NUMBER IS R89 AND THE RECALL WAS PLACED ON AUGUST 27TH 2011, FOR HONDA ACCORDS 2005-2010 FOR THE TRANSMISSION. THIS ISSUE IS TRANSMISSION POWER IS NOT WORKING AS EXPECTED AND IT JERKS WHILE CHANGING GEAR OR SPEED. THIS IS DANGEROUS FROM DRIVING SAFETY POINT OF VIEW. I NEED HELP BY THE NHTSA AS I STRONGLY FEEL THAT MY CASE IS GENUINE AND WITH REFERENCE TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER : 11V395000, MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS RECALL BY AMERICAN HONDA. ON THAT NOTE, I DO HOPE TO RECEIVE A RESOLUTION RESPONSE , IN A TIMELY MANNER, FROM YOUR EXECUTIVE TEAM OR SOMEONE ELSE THAT IS IN A POSITION TO DO THE RIGHT THING.

I WAS LEAVING A STORE ON HULL ST.
