The vehicle was taken to two Honda dealerships apon noticing the D light blinking on the dashboard after reaching highway speeds. Also started getting worse overtime, currently when starting up, and putting into drive, nothing happens, and after a few seconds it will plurge forward into gear on its own. Down shifting when braking is rough and delayed also. Ive addressed this issue with Honda, and they just look my vin number and tell me there is no recall and id have to pay $200 out of pocket simply to run a diagnostic, when I know this should be covered under their recall as all symptoms are matching their current recalls for this vehicle. Also accomanied sometimes with a check engine light indicating the O2 Sensor connected to the catalater converter is having a delayed reaction. Also the airbag red light is always steady illuminated. This vehicle has never been in a crash and is very well maintained and Id like to keep it that way by addressing this issues accordingly in a timely manner. Thank you, Kindly.

I recently learned of the NHTSA's complaint section and is the reason in the delay in reporting this incident: Front Driveshaft Breakage/Failure On May 1, 2014, the Front Left Driveshaft/CV Axle Broke on my 2006 Honda Accord EX V6 4-Door. This vehicle had 177,694 miles at the time of incident. The car was stopped at an intersection waiting to make a left-hand turn. After the traffic light turned green, the car just started rolling when the driveshaft snapped/broke. On May 2, 2014, this vehicle was towed, and my Auto Technician was stunned to see the axle/driveshaft had broken. He stated that driveshafts are, typically, made of hardened steel and should never break. He also mentioned that if this break would’ve occurred at expressway speeds (the majority of my driving is at expressway speeds), this would’ve been catastrophic. Clearly, this is a Major Safety Issue. This vehicle is still in service and currently has 315,000 miles. At the current mileage, I am quite concerned that the Replacement Honda Driveshaft (Front Left) and the Original Front Right Driveshaft may also break; quite possibly, at high speeds. A search of the various Honda Forums reveals that this breakage/failure is a common problem with Honda Driveshafts. Recently, Honda recalled some vehicles for this Driveshaft Breakage Problem. My vehicle was not included in the recall.

MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUES AS DESCRIBED IN RECALL #11V395000, HOWEVER MY VIN IS NOT LISTED AS BEING AFFECTED BY THAT RECALL. I CONTACT HONDA USA DIRECTLY, OPENED A CASE #10120384, AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO EXTENDED WARRANTY AND NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE VEHICLE IS MAKING A NOISE WHILE DRIVING AND SUDDENLY LOSES ALL POWER, THIS HAS ONLY HAPPENED SO FAR WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED BY THE 2011 RECALL FOR THE PCM, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IN MY VEHICLE ALSO INDICATES THE PCM IS AT FAULT, HOWEVER BECAUSE MY VIN IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL ANY FIX MUST BE DONE OUT OF POCKET. THE ISSUES HAPPENING ARE EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL, BECAUSE OF THIS IT SEEMS AS THOUGH ADDITIONAL VINS MIGHT HAVE NEEDED TO BE INCLUDED.

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.

ON 26OCT17, I WAS DRIVING MY HONDA ACCORD 2006 WITH 171,000 MILES AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP. I PREPARED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND ENGAGED THE CLUTCH. THE VEHICLE ENTERED INTO THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 5 FEET WHEN A LARGE POP/THUD WAS HEARD WITH SOME SLIGHT METALLIC GRINDING NOISES. THE CAR DRIFTED BACKWARDS SINCE I WAS ON A SLIGHT INCLINE. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC TO MY LEFT OR BEHIND ME. I DRIFTED BACKWARDS APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET AND BACKED INTO A PLAYGROUND PARKING LOT ON MY RIGHT. I PARKED THE CAR AND MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO MOVE FORWARD AND ENGAGE THE CLUTCH. THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AND THE CLUTCH WOULD NOT WORK. I CALLED MY LOCAL AUTO CLUB FOR ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE. THE AUTO CLUB TOWED THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC. THE NEXT DAY MY MECHANIC CALLED ME AND REPORTED THAT MY CLUTCH WAS FINE BUT MY LEFT FRONT AXLE WAS BROKEN. THE MECHANIC REPAIRED THE VEHICLE AND TOLD ME HE REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO HONDA. THE MECHANIC WAS ASKED IF ANYONE WAS INJURED OR KILLED. THE MECHANIC REPORTED THAT THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND HONDA TOLD HIM THAT THEY WERE NOT OBLIGATED TO REPORT THE PROBLEM. MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT HE WAS PERSONALLY AWARE OF OTHER OLDER HONDA VEHICLES THAT ALSO HAD BROKEN AXLES. THE MECHANIC SHOWED ME THE BROKEN AXLE. THE MECHANIC INDICATED THAT THE RUBBER COVERING OVER THE AREA AFFECTED ALLOWS WATER/MOISTURE TO ACCUMULATE AND CORRODE THE AXLE. HE NOTED THAT THE NEW AXLE DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME COVERING. THE MECHANIC FELT IT WAS A DESIGN FLAW AND WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY WARNINGS/RECALLS FROM HONDA. I HAVE ATTACHED A COPY OF THE REPAIR NEEDED FOR THIS INCIDENT.

I HAD JUST GOTTEN OFF THE INTERSTATE ABOUT 2 MINUTES. I WAS APPROACHING A TRAFFIC LIGHT, WHEN I TRIED TO ACCELERATE THROUGH IT. MY ENGINE ROARED, BUT DID NOT GO ANYWHERE. SO I LOOKED AROUND, AND CARS WERE UP ON ME, NEARLY REAR-ENDING ME. THEY WERE UPSET THAT I MASHED MY BRAKES, RATHER THAN DRIVING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. I PUT ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS FOR THEM TO GO AROUND ME, AS I PUT THE CAR IN PARK, IT KEPT ROLLING BACK, REVERSE, IT KEPT ROLLING AS IF IT WAS IN NEUTRAL, DRIVE, IT KEPT ROLLING. I HAD TO PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKES UP TO GET THE CAR TO STOP. AFTER NEARLY GETTING HIT FROM THE REAR NUMEROUS TIMES, I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO ALLOW THE VEHICLE TO ROLL BACKWARDS INTO A PARKING LOT AND PARK IT. IT TOOK ME NEARLY 3 HOURS TO FINALLY GET THE CAR TOWED HOME. THIS IS A DANGEROUS EXPERIENCE. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE IF THIS HAD HAPPENED TO AN INEXPERIENCED DRIVER. THERE MAY HAVE BEEN FATALITIES AS A RESULT OF THIS. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN WARNED THAT SOMETHING LIKE THIS COULD OCCUR IN THIS VEHICLE. MY TRANSMISSION PUT ME DOWN. I AM JUST THANKFUL THAT I HAD GOTTEN OFF OF THE INTERSTATE. MY COMPLAINT #: 1-07-825-30. PLEASE, REMEDY THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMETHING MAJOR HAPPENS TO SOMEONE. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE. *TR

THIS IS MY FIRST HONDA & WILL BE MY LAST. BOUGHT THE CAR WITH 50,000 MILES ON IT-FIGURED WE WERE SET FOR QUITE A WHILE. AT 53,000 THE TRANSMISSION WENT-3,000 MILES OVER WARRANTY. CALLED HONDA DIRECTLY & AFTER CRYING, BEGGING, PLEADING, ETC THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION FREE OF CHARGE. THREE YEARS LATER I HAVE A CAR WITH 110,000 MILES ON IT. THE WHITE PAINT IS ALL PITTED WITH RUST SPOTS, THE PASSENGER SIDE MOTOR LOCK IS BROKEN & THE DRIVER SIDE PASSENGER WINDOW MOTOR IS SHOT. GOD ONLY KNOWS ABOUT THE AIR BAGS!! I HATE THIS CAR WITH A PASSION. MY HUSBANDS 1996 TOYOTA CAMRY HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AT OVER 200,000 MILES!! I CAN'T BELIEVE HONDA DOESN'T PUT OUT RECALLS ON SOME OF THESE THINGS AS I'VE READ QUITE A FEW COMPLAINTS ABOUT THEM ON THE INTERNET. OBVIOUSLY HONDA ISN'T CONCERNED ABOUT THEIR REPUTATION AT ALL. I WAS SO IMPRESSED WHEN THEY FINALLY AGREED TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BUT ITS LIKE I GOT THE LEMON OF ALL HONDAS!!! *TR
