2010 Honda Accord Crosstour Problems

I have been experiencing serious problems with my 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour. In 2013 there was a lawsuit against Honda due to an oil consumption and it stated ALL 2010 Honda Accord Crosstours and since a recall was never issued Honda denied fixing my car. After a lawsuit Honda should have been court appointed to fix everyone of the million cars with the defective engines!!!! The consumer shouldnt have to replace anything. My car completely shutdown) weeks ago while I was driving major safety issue don’t you think geez will it take people to die before they replace all these defective engines??? Oil is leaking into the combustion chamber and thats a defective problem per manufacturer!!!!!! You need to do an investigation on this because it’s the V-6 J35Z2 that they put in majority of there cars and it’s defective that should be against the law!!!!!!!!! I have had so many repairs on this Honda that shouldn’t have had to be done on a Honda. My last Honda had the engine before this defective one and it was great never had a problem. It’s nit the consumers fault so Honda should have to replace all those engines and it should be the lemon law if being sold after a lawsuit on them and they shouldn’t be abje to sell a defective engine knowingly!!!!! Someone need to step up for the consumer in this matter because warranty can’t even apply when it was defective before anyobe purchased the vehicle.!!!!!!!!! DO SOMETHING

Hope this email finds you well. I am writing to address a serious matter regarding my 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour, which has been facing recurrent misfires due to what appears to be a manufacturer-induced oil consumption defect in the engine design. Over the past 18 months, I have experienced extensive repairs on my Honda, surpassing any issues I have encountered with previous vehicles. Despite my diligent efforts In maintaining the car with regular tune-ups and oil changes , it is disheartening to witness fluids seeping into the engine, causing damage to multiple components. I have invested a significant amount of money into resolving these issues, expenses that should not have arisen with a Honda vehicle, given my positive experiences with the brand in the past. Upon contacting customer service and receiving a case number, I have found the assistance provided to be inadequate in addressing these issues severity of the situation. The recent revelation of a 2014 lawsuit further compounds my concerns, as it appears that Honda seeks to evade accountability for widespread engine malfunctions, leaving loyal customers like myself in a distressing predicament. Despite the substantial financial outlay exceeding $1200, my vehicle remains inoperable due to the unintended consequences of the oil leakage onto pistons, a situation exacerbated by the lack of proactive measures from Honda in rectifying this critical issue. I have meticulously preserved all documentation, including receipts detailing the damages incurred as a result of the oil consumption defect. While I acknowledge the complexities surrounding warranty coverage and ownership transfer, it is evident that the fundamental flaw lies in the initial design of the engine, which has compromised the vehicles performance and safety. Honda’s reluctance to acknowledge and address this inherent defect reflects poorly on their commitment to customer satisfaction and product This what I emailed to Honda.

Vehicle caught on fire while parked. Firefighter stated that this was the “third or fourth” of the same make and model he has dealt with. A google search stated that this year make and model had recalls for fires in Florida and other states. I had searched the vin for recalls prior to this happening to ensure this vehicle was safe and there were no recalls associated with the vin.

Horrible steering. e brake gets stuck. High rpm at times

Horrible steering. e brake gets stuck. High rpm at times

MY CAR JERKS FROM THE VCM MODULE ON THE CAR USUALLY WHEN GOING AROUND 40 MPH ESPECIALLY WHEN ENTERING A TURN( I DRIVE MOSTLY ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY) WHICH MAKES ME FEEL UNSAFE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS WHEN IT SHUTS DOWN CYLINDERS AND JERKS THE CAR HARD SOMETIMES AND GIVES A SIGNIFICANT LOSS OF TORQUE. I RECENTLY PURCHASED A HONDA ACCORD CROSSTOUR 2010 WITH 72K MILES ON THEIR 3.5L V6 ENGINE AND WAS NOT INFORMED ABOUT HONDA BEING SUED FOR THEIR VCM MODULE THAT SHUTS DOWN CYLINDERS. IT RUINS PISTON RINGS, BREAKS ENGINE MOUNTS, MISFIRING, BURNING OIL, AND LAST BUT NOT LEAST BENT PISTON RODS ALL SO YOU CAN GET 1 MORE MILE PER GALLON. I WOULD LIKE FOR HONDA TO DO A RECALL TO FIX ENGINES THAT ARE DAMAGED AND TO FINALLY GIVE THEIR BUYERS AN OPTION TO TURN THE VCM OFF WHICH IS KNOWN TO PREVENT THOSE PROBLEMS AND MAKE THE CAR NOT JERK.I GOT 75K MILES NOW AND JERKING HAS GOTTEN WORSE TO WHERE I'M TRYING TO FIND WAYS TO TURN IT OFF. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME!

OIL CONSUMPTION IS MORE THAN IT SHOULD BE. I HAVE TO ADD OIL BETWEEN CHANGES AND I ALWAYS GET A MISFIRE BECAUSE MY ENGINE IS TRASH

I BOUGHT A HONDA ON QUITE A FEW REFERRALS BECAUSE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE SOLID CARS THAT LAST. I HAD ACTUALLY BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE, IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER, A COUPLE YEARS AFTER I BOUGHT IT. I WOULD TAKE IT IN AND IT WOULD BE FIXED (?). UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN THE ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHTS WOULD GO ON FOR A FEW DAYS THEN OFF, THEN BACK ON, THEN OF AGAIN. THE FINAL TIME THEY WENT ON THEY WERE BLINKING AND MY CAR WAS ACTING VERY SLUGGISH, IT WAS NOT GETTING A LOT OF POWER SO I TOOK IT IN TO A HONDA DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. AFTER PICKING MY SELF UP OFF OF THE FLOOR FROM THE ESTIMATE THAT THEY GAVE ME, I TOOK THEIR PRINT OUT TO ANOTHER REPAIR CENTER, THAT RHYMES WITH, HIRESTONE, BECAUSE THEY HAD TAKEN CARE OF A FEW THINGS IN THE PAST AND HAD GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND COMPARABLE PRICING. ONE WEEK LATER, MY ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND I FLIPPED OUT! I TOOK IT BACK TO 'HIRESTONE" AND THEY TOOK IT IN AND A FEW HOURS LATER, HERE I AM READING ABOUT THE LAWSUIT WITH HONDA OVER THE EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE DEAL. NOW I WILL BE SUPER INCONVENIENCED TO FIND A WAY TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO A DEALER FOR A COUPLE HOURS FOR MY 3RD OIL CHANGE IN ABOUT 3-4 WEEKS SO THEY CAN MONITOR THE USAGE AND DETERMINE IF I QUALIFY TO HAVE THE PISTON RINGS REPLACED, A 1-2 DAY JOB. ALSO COME TO FIND OUT THAT IF IT IS THE LAWSUIT ISSUE, AMERICAN HONDA DOES NOT OFFER A RENTAL CAR FOR ME WHILE THEY ARE FIXING "THEIR" FAULTY ISSUE. I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS HEADACHE, THEY KNEW ABOUT IT A FEW YEARS AGO. THEY SHOULD PAY FOR EVERYTHING!! URGGGGGGG!!!!

ON SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 28, 2010, UPON OPENING THE TRUNK, THE REAR CARGO AREA COVER DROPPED DOWN AND HIT MY FOREHEAD LEAVING A LARGE BRUISED LUMP. TODAY IS TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 2010 AND I STILL HAVE PAIN AND HEADACHES. THE COVER WAS COMPLETELY UNHOOKED WITH NOTHING HOLDING IT SAFELY IN PLACE. THERE IS NO LOCKING MECHANISM FOR THE REAR CARGO AREA COVER. IT APPEARS THAT THE SIDE HOOKS BECAME UNHOOKED (PRESSURE FIT ONLY) AND THE "MOUNTING PINS' ARE AS THE FLETCHER HONDA SERVICE MANAGER SAID, ONLY FOR GUIDANCE AND ALIGNMENT. NOT TO PROVIDE SUPPORT OR KEEP THE REAR CARGO AREA COVER IN PLACE. THERE IS NOTHING TO PREVENT THE REAR AREA CARGO COVER TO NOT FALL OUT AND DOWN. AND WHEN EXPLAINING TO FLETCHER HONDA'S SERVICE MANAGER ON MONDAY, NOVEMBER 29, 2010 THE PROBLEM AND UNHOOKING ONLY ONE SIDE HOOK, THE COVER FELL DOWN ON THAT SIDE FIRST, THEN THE OTHER SIDE HOOK UNHOOKED AND THE ENTIRE COVER RELL DOWN. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAYS HE HAS NO ABILITY TO CHANGE DESIGNS, HOWEVER, HE SAID HE WILL PASS THIS INFORMATION ONTO HIS HONDA REP. I WAS GIVEN A 1-800 NUMBER TO CALL. TODAY, NOVEMBER 30, I CALLED AND THIS INFORMATION IS TO BE GIVEN TO A HONDA CASE MANAGER WITHIN 1-2 BUSINESS DAYS. ALSO - PREVIOUS COMPLAINT WAS FILED -- 10368291. I PROVIDED THE WRONG VIN AS I WAS LOOKING AT OUR BUICK'S INSURANCE CARD, NOT THE HONDA CROSSTOUR. CORRECT VIN IS SUPPLIED WITH THIS REVISED COMPLAINT. *TR
