TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA ACCORD EQUIPPED WITH SUMITOMO TOUR PLUS LST TIRES, SIZE: 205/60R16 (NA). WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE BLEW OUT AND SEPARATED FROM THE TIRE WALL. IN 2016, THE REAR DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 210,000. THE TIRE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG IS ALREADY DEPLOYED. WHEN I CALLED MY HONDA DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE THE PASSENGER SIDE, I ASKED IF THE DRIVER SIDE WOULD ALSO BE DONE. THE REP SAID THAT IT WOULD. WHEN I GOT TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY TRIED TO CHARGE ME $250.00 TO HAVE IT DONE. I CANNOT AFFORD THIS. THE DATE OF 05/01/2015 IS A GUESS.

VEHICLE RECALLED ON TWO OCCASIONS AND SERVICE PERFORMED BOTH TIMES BY HONDA DEALER FOR TAKATA AIRBAG PROBLEM. AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASHBOARD IS CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED INDICATING A PROBLEM WITH THE AIRBAG SYSTEM. PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED DESPITE RECALL SERVICE. HONDA ACKNOWLEDGES SYSTEM IS NOT FUNCTIONING BUT WILL NOT ACCEPT ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ISSUE. LIGHT REMAINS ON WHENEVER VEHICLE IS RUNNING INDICATING THAT AIRBAG SAFETY SYSTEM IS NOT OPERATING PROPERLY. LAST RECALL PERFORMED

I BOUGHT A CAR & AFTER DRIVING IT, I NOTICED & STARTED TO HEAR/ FEEL STRANGE NOISES. I DECIDED TO HAVE THE CAR INSPECTED & I FOUND OUT THAT THE CAR HAD A SIGNIFICANT FRONT-END COLLISION & THAT THE HONDA HAD BEEN PARTIALLY REPAIRED & NOT FIXED PROPERLY. THE INSPECTORS STATED THAT THE CAR'S ACCIDENT WAS NOT REPORTED TO DMV AS IT SHOULD BE & THAT IS WAS FIXED UNDER THE TABLE, AS A SIDE JOB. THE CAR DEALERSHIP CLAIMED THE CAR HAD A CLEAN TITLE, HOWEVER THE TITLE WAS NEVER IN THE DEALERSHIPS NAME & INSTEAD IN THE PRIVATE OWNER'S NAME STILL. THE DAMAGE FOUND ON THE CAR ARE SIGNIFICANT & COULD HAVE CAUSED MY FAMILY OR I SERIOUS INJURY, IF WE GOT INTO A WRECK. THE DAMAGE FOUND ON THE CAR WHICH WAS NOT REPAIRED PROPERLY ARE; SIGNIFICANT FRONT-END DAMAGE, A BUCKLED RIGHT FRAME RAIL, UPPER MOTOR MOUNT IS BROKEN, A BROKEN SEAM SEAL (WHICH IS FRESHLY BROKEN), THERE ARE BUCKLES ON THE UPPER APRON AND THE WELDS ON THE RADIATOR SUPPORT WERE NOT WELDED PROPERLY OR PAINTED & WAS COVERED UP BY THE FRESH SEAM SEAL. THERE IS ALSO THE SAME BENT REBAR SUPPORT ON THERE FROM THE DAMAGED WRECK AND WAS RATTLED CANNED IN AN ATTEMPT TO COVER IT UP. I WAS TOLD IT IS A FRESH REPAIR AS THE BUMPER, RADIATOR & RADIATOR SUPPORT, AC CONDENSER & FAN SHROUDS ARE BRAND NEW.THE DEALERSHIP INSINUATED THAT THEY DO NOT INSPECT THE CARS AND THAT THEY JUST SELL THEM RIGHT BACK(WHICH IS WEIRD, WHY BUY CARS AND SELL THEM, UNLESS THERE IS PROFIT)?. I THEN CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED & HOW THEY HAVE THE RESPONSIBILITY AS A BUSINESS AND DEALERSHIP TO SELL SAFE CARS UNDER THE OREGON LEMON LAW ACT & FEDERAL TRADE COMMISSION ACT (SECTION 5). I HAVE NOW ASKED FOR THEIR BUSINESS LICENSE 2 TIMES & THEY WILL NOT SEND IT TO ME. THEY ARE ALSO REFUSING TO GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK & ONLY OFFERED A PARTIAL REFUND, FOR A CAR THAT THEY SOLD KNOWING IT WAS UNSAFE, WITH UNSAFE REPAIRS & NOT REPORTING AN ACCIDENT.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR THE OTHER NIGHT ON THE STREET AND ALL OF A SUDDEN IT DIDN'T WANNA DRIVE FORWARD ANYMORE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I SCANNED FOR THE CODES AND MY SCANNER SAID IT WAS THE OUTPUT SPEED SENSOR AND ALSO TORQUE CONVERTER CLUTCH CIRCUIT STUCK OFF. THE CAR WON'T DRIVE FORWARD OR BACKWARD.
