THE LOCKS ON MY CAR WILL NOT OPEN. REGARDLESS OF THE WIRELESS ENTRY OR MANUALLY OPENING WITH A KEY OR EVEN FROM THE INSIDE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO UNLOCK THE DOORS, THE DOOR UNLOCKS THEN LOCKS. THE DOORS WILL NOT OPEN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS IS A SEVERE HAZARD AS MY CHILDREN WERE LOCKED IN THE CAR AND I HAD TO TAKE NECESSARY MEASURES TO GET IN THE CAR THROUGH THE TRUNK TO GET THEM OUT. HONDA SAID THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS ITEM AND I FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE. I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THIS AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA TO FIX. PLEASE HELP ME SO I CAN GET INTO MY CAR AND DRIVE SAFELY WITHOUT KNOWING ILL BE STUCK IN THE CAR.

2007 HONDA ACCORD EX-L (IN EXCELLENT CONDITION) WAS PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE AND STOPPED. WHEN DRIVER TRANSITIONED THE GEARSHIFT FROM DRIVE TO PARK, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, JUMPED THE CURB, CROSSED A (SOGGY) GRASSY MEDIAN OF ABOUT 10 FEET, AND CRASHED INTO A SECOND (PARKED) CAR WITH ENOUGH VELOCITY TO PUSH THE SECOND CAR INTO A THIRD (PARKED) CAR. ALL EFFORTS TO STOP THE HONDA IN ITS ACCELERATION WERE UNSUCCESSFUL. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH IT HAD BEEN PURCHASED NEW AND SERVICED REGULARLY. AFTER THREE MONTHS OF HAGGLING, THE DEALERSHIP REPURCHASED THE CAR; HONDA, HOWEVER, REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE ANY PROBLEM WITH THE CAR.

WHILE MAKING A TURN ONTO A HIGHWAY, OUR HONDA ACCORD HAD COMPLETE AND CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE FRONT BALL JOINT WITH TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING. FRONT AXLE LITERALLY FELL ONTO THE ROADWAY AND FRONT LEFT TIRE WAS PERPENDICULAR TO THE CAR BODY AND KEPT US FROM BOTTOMING OUT. THANKFULLY NO OTHERS CARS IN IMMEDIATE AREA AND WE WERE NOT HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. WE WERE ALSO DRIVING SLOWLY SO NO INJURIES EVEN THOUGH CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO BE CONTROLLED. CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY SAID THIS IS A UNIQUE PROBLEM AND THAT THIS HAS NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THEIR CARS. HOWEVER MANY, MANY INSTANCES DOCUMENTED ON HONDA FORUMS ON THE WEB.

THE TRUNK DOOR WON'T STAY OPEN ON A LOW SLOPE SURFACE OR UNDER SLIGHT WIND ON A FLAT SURFACE. DOOR LOCK HIT THE HEAD ON MULTIPLE FAMILY MEMBERS HEAD CAUSING BRUISES ON HEAD AND HEADACHES FOR MONTHS. I BELIEVE THE ROOT CAUSE IS THAT THE TRUNK DOOR SPRING IS NO STRONG ENOUGH TO HOLD THE DOOR UNDER NORMAL USE. REPORT THE PROBLEM TO HONDA IN NEW VEHICLE SURVEY IN 2007, BUT NO RESPONSE FROM HONDA. FILE A COMPLAINT TO HONDA ON SEPT. 2011. HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE DENIED THE PROBLEM. *TR
