I WAS DRIVING MY 2001 HONDA ACCORD AND HIT SOMETHING ON THE FREEWAY WHICH CAUSED MY LEFT DRIVERS SIDE AIRBAG TO GO OFF. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2001 HONDA ACCORD EX FROM A PRIVATE PARTY IN FEB OF 2011. AT THE END OF APRIL, I STARTED NOTICING GEAR SHIFTING PROBLEMS AND A WEEK LATER IT JUST GOT WORSE-THE D4 LIGHT WOULD FLASH CONTINUOUSLY AND THE CAR WOULD REV UP BUT WOULD NOT MOVE CAUSING ME TO ALMOST ENCOUNTER A FEW ACCIDENTS. WHEN I DID MY RESEARCH AND CONTACTED A MECHANIC, THEY TOLD ME THE REPAIRS WOULD BE BETWEEN $2,000 AND $3,000 WHICH I DO NOT HAVE!!! I HAVE BEEN FORCED TO PUT THE ONLY FORM OF TRANSPORTATION I HAVE TO THE SIDE UNTIL I CAN ATTEMPT TO GET THE MONEY TO REPAIR IT. *TR

HONDA SENT A RECALL FOR THE AIRBAGS. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD FIX FOR FREE. HAD ME WAIT 2 HOURS WHILE THEY DIDN'T DO ANYTHING BUT LOOK AT MY CAR. THE SRS LIGHT IS STILL ON. THE GOVERNMENT SHOULD STEP IN AND DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. HOW IS IT THAT THOUSANDS OF HONDAS ARE RIDING AROUND AND THE AIRBAG WONT EVEN DEPLOY IF YOU GET INTO A ACCIDENT. NOT TO MENTION HONDA WONT EVEN MAKE SURE THAT ITS SAFE. THERE SHOULD BE A LAW STATING THAT ALL RECALLS MUST BE HANDLED ACCORDINGLY OR GET FINED A HEFTY FINE. 2001 HONDA ACCORD V6.........STILL UNSAFE.......AND UPSET. *TR

MY HUSBAND AND I WERE DRIVING AT FREEWAY SPEED ON I-5 HEADING NORTH FROM SAN DIEGO, WHEN OUR 2001 HONDA ACCORD TRANSMISSION SLIPPED AND SHUDDERED TO THE POINT THAT THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO LOSE FORWARD MOMENTUM, LEFT US WITH NO CHOICE BUT TO SLIDE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY FROM MIDDLE LANE IN A TRAFFIC THAT WAS MOVING AT 80 MILES PER HOUR. VEHICLES APPROACHINGFROM THE REAR HAD TO MAKE EMERGENCY BREAK TO KEEP FROM COLLIDING WITH IT, INCLUDING SEMI-TRUCKS BEHIND. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT. WE BELIEVE IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY DEFECT THAT APPARENTLY EXISTS IN MANY 2001 HONDA VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN PROPERLY MAINTAINED OVER TIME, BUT INFORMATION WAS FOUND FROM RELAIBLE SOURCES INDICATES THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURANCE FOR HONDA MODELS AROUND 2001. UP TO THIS DATE, WE STILL REMIEMBER THE FEAR VIVIDLY AND FEEL SO GRATEFUL THAT NOBODY DIED OR SERIOUSLY INJURT BY THE FAILURE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.
