2004 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2004 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 15V370000 (AIR BAGS) AND 15V320000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE WITHIN A REASONABLE TIMEFRAME TO SCHEDULE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER DID NOT GIVE A SPECIFIC DATE FOR WHEN THE PART WOULD BECOME AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER COULD NOT PROVIDE AN ESTIMATED DATE FOR WHEN THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WOULD RECEIVE THE RECALL REPAIR. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80,000.

I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE STATING THAT THE AIR BAGS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO POTENTIAL DANGER OR DEATH. I FOLLOWED ALL HONDA'S DIRECTIONS TO THE LETTER AND WAS GIVEN AN APPOINTMENT TIME AND PLACE FOR THE WORK. WHEN I SHOWED UP AT THE DEALERSHIP, OURISMAN HONDA BETHESDA MD FOR THE WORK TO BE DONE THE DEALER SAID HONDA HAD SET UP A WEBSITE, HANDED OUT APPOINTMENTS AND PROMISED CUSTOMERS THAT THE WORK WOULD TAKE A HALF AN HOUR, WITHOUT THEIR KNOWLEDGE. THAT THEY HAD NOT AGREED TO PARTICIPATE IN HONDA'S SCHEME AND THAT I HAD NO APPOINTMENT AND THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PARTS TO DO THE WORK. IS THIS GOOD SERVICE? IS THIS WHAT CUSTOMERS ARE TO EXPECT? HOW CAN SUCH INCOMPETENCE REBUILD CUSTOMER TRUST? IS NHTSA AWARE OF THIS SITUATION?

RADIO STOPPED PLAYING MUSIC AND MAKES LOUD CRACKING NOISE THAT IS STARTLING WHEN DRIVING. WHEN SEARCHING FOR SOLUTIONS ONLINE, IT WAS SUGGESTED "A CHIP FOR THE AUDIO OUTPUT HAS FAILED AND EXPLODED ON THE INTERNAL PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD." THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS POSTED ONLINE BY OTHER HONDA ACCORD OWNERS. HONDA WON'T FIX AND SOME COMMENTS SAY THAT THE NON-DEALER MECHANICS HAVE FURTHER DAMAGED THE VEHICLE WHEN TRYING FIX THE ISSUE. THE COSTS TO POSSIBLY FIX WITH CHANCES OF CAUSING MORE DAMAGE IS GREATER THAN $500. IF IT'S NOT A COMMON ISSUE, HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND CORRECT THE ISSUE. IT IS DANGEROUSLY LOUD SOMETIMES AND CAUSES ME TO LOSE FOCUS ON THE ROAD.
