HAVE TROUBLE STARTING CAR SOMETIMES,WHILE I'M DRIVING CAR JUST GOES DEAD,HAVE TO KEEP MOVING THE KEY TO GET IT STARTED. ON GOING PROBLEM. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW WAS STUCK IN THE OPEN POSITION. MECHANIC (AAA-LISTED) DIAGNOSED MASTER WINDOW SWITCH, INSTALLED NEW OEM MASTER WINDOW SWITCH. THIS WEEK, SEPT. 2014, LESS THAN A YEAR AFTER THE REPAIR, THE SAME WINDOW IS STUCK IN THE CLOSED POSITION. I AM REPORTING B/C 5 HOURS RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE INDICATES THE PROBLEM TO BE PERVASIVE, ONGOING AND DIFFICULT TO DIAGNOSE. REPAIRS CAN BE VERY EXPENSIVE, CAUSING SOME OWNERS TO JUST LEAVE THE WINDOW CLOSED. I CAN FIND NO RECALLS FROM HONDA. OBVIOUSLY, AN OPEN WINDOW IS DANGEROUS B/C ANYONE CAN ACCESS THE CAR OR THE DRIVER. A CLOSED WINDOW IS DANGEROUS IF ESCAPE IS NECESSARY. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL AND REPAIR THE PROBLEM. THANK YOU. *TR

I AM A UNSUSPECTING CONSUMER THAT BOUGHT A VEHICLE THAT WAS FOR SALE WITHOUT DISCLOSURE OF THE TRUE CONDITION INCLUDING BRAND HISTORY. I PURCHASE AN UNSAFE CAR FOR MY DAUGHTER AND THE SECOND DAY THE BRAKE FAIL AND THE STEERING WHEEL STIFFNESS. MY DAUGHTER TOOK IT FOR A OIL CHANGE MY MECHANIC SAID IT HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS OIL LEAK, AXLE DAMAGE, SUSPENSION NOISE. I TOOK IT TO HAVE THE MUFFLER CHECK MY MECHANIC SAID THE MUFFLER HAD A ROTTEN PIPE AND TWO DONUT GASKET THAT NEED TO REPLACED WHICH I DID. THE CODE PRESENT P1259 - VTEC SOLENOID AND OXYGEN SENSOR. I REQUESTED THE CAR FAX AND IT SAID THAT IT HAD THREE MINOR ACCIDENTS, THREE OWNERS, MILEAGE INCONSISTENCY. MY DAUGHTER SAID WHILE DRIVING THE CAR THE SPEED ODOMETER ONLY GOES TO SIXTY MILES WHEN SPEED UP AND IT WILL NOT GO ANY FURTHER. I NEVER SAW A TITLE, SIGN A TRANSFER FORM, OR GO DOWN WITH HIM TO THE COURT HOUSE TO GET THE STICKER AND TRANSFER PAPER WORK. MY DAUGHTER HAD TO JUMP OUT OF THE CAR WHILE PARKING THE CAR. IT STARTED SMOKING LIKE IT WAS ON FIRE. I INFORMED [XXX] THAT THE CAR WAS A JUNK AND I WANTED MY MONEY BACK. IT HAS BEEN THIRTEEN DAYS SINCE I PURCHASE THE CAR AND I HAVE NOT GOT MY MONEY BACK. HE MADE SURE THAT THE ADDRESS WHERE HE IS LOCATED WAS WRITTEN WRONG, THE NAME OF HIS BUSINESS WAS INCORRECT, THE VIN NO. WAS WRITTEN INCORRECT, THE ODOMETER AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE WAS NOT DOCUMENTED ON THE BUYERS OWNER INVOICE. I PURCHASE THIS CAR AT A EXXON GAS STATION. I SENT HIM A DEMAND LETTER AND I HAVE NOT GOTTEN ANY RESPONSE. THE CAR IS PARKED INFRONT OF MY HOME AND MY DAUGHTER CANNOT DRIVE THE CAR.

THE CARS SAFETY BELTS HAVE HAD TROUBLE RETRACTING FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS. I WAS UNAWARE OF BEING ABLE TO REPORT SAFETY ISSUES, OR WOULD HAVE MUCH SOONER. MOST RECENTLY THE LOW BEAMS WENT OUT. THE SRS LIGHT IS ALSO ON. THE CARS HORN IS WIRED INTO THE SRS SYSTEM. SO YOU LOOSE TWO MAJOR SAFETY FEATURES AT ONCE. VERY BAD DESIGN. THE DRIVERS SEAT HAD BEEN LOOSE FOR YEARS. THE SKID PLATE/FLOORBOARD CRACKED AND ALLOWED THE BOLTS OR HARDWARE TO CORRODE. I RAN THE VIN AND WAS SURPRISED NO RECALLS ARE AVAILABLE, AS THE PROBLEMS MY FAMILY IS EXPERIENCING HAVE BEEN RECALLED ON SIMILAR HONDA'S. *TR

DURING THE DAY THE INSIDE OF MY CAR HAD A BURNING PLASTIC SMELL. LATER THAT NIGHT, MY HEADLIGHT LOW BEAMS WOULD NOT WORK. I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH THE PASSING BEAMS WEDGED ON. TODAY I TOOK THE HEADLIGHT/TURN SIGNAL SWITCH OFF OF THE STEERING COLUMN. THE ASSEMBLY HAD STARTED TO MELT AND THE HARNESS CONNECTOR THAT WAS ATTACHED TO IT IS SINGED! APPARENTLY I AM NOT THE FIRST TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM IN A HONDA VEHICLE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE. *TR

AIRBAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT CAUSE, RESULTING IN INJURY TO DRIVER. THE CAR THEN LEFT ITS LANE AND STRUCK CURB, DAMAGING LEFT WHEEL, TIRE AND SUSPENSION. INJURIES TO DRIVER WERE ABRASIONS TO CHIN, BLOOD FROM MOUTH, SWOLLEN FACE AND BAD BRUISING TO CHEST AND BREAST(FEMALE DRIVER). *TR

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THAT THE SWITCH AND COUPLER WERE DEFECTIVE AS A RESULT OF HEAT DAMAGE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE WHO DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.
