UPON BUYING THIS CAR REPAIRS STARTED IMMEDIATELY STARTING WITH FULL BRAKE SYSTEM AND NOW BOTH BALL JOINTS, POWER STEERING RETURN LINE, TIMING CHAIN AND TENSIONER. THIS CAR IS ONLY 13 YEARS OLD AND IN MY THEORY THESE ITEMS SHOULD HAVE LASTED A LOT LONGER.

I WAS DRIVING THROUGH MY AREA AT OR NEAR 15 MPH. WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN TO A SPEED OF 30-35 MPH. THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT VERY STIFF AND WAS DIFFICULT TO HOLD THE CAR AT 30 MPH WITH CONSTANT BRAKING. THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC AND THE INCIDENT OCCURRED NOT FAR FROM MY HOME, SO I PROCEEDED BACK HOME. THE CAR WOULD NOT DECELERATE. I HAVE A VERY LONG DRIVEWAY THAT I PULLED INTO, PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL, TURNED OFF THE KEY AND PULLED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE. THERE WAS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AS THE ENGINE WOUND DOWN. I IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED. THEY SENT A TOW VEHICLE TO PICK UP THE CAR SINCE IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE IT TO THEM. THEY SAID THEY DROVE THE CAR MULTIPLE TIMES AND PERFORMED DIAGNOSTIC TESTS ON THE VEHICLE FINDING NO PROBLEMS AFTER HAVING THE CAR FOR THREE DAYS. THE INVOICE HOWEVER SHOWED IDENTICAL MILEAGE IN AND OUT OF THEIR FACILITY WHEN IT WAS PICKED UP JAN. 2, 2014. ON FEB. 11, 2014, I WAS IN TRAFFIC STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, MY RIGHT FOOT PRESSING ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. WITHOUT WARNING THE ENGINE REVVED, THE BRAKE PEDAL STIFFENED AND THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD HITTING THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, DOING DAMAGE TO BOTH VEHICLES. BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA OF AMERICA HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED AND A CLAIM HAS BEEN FILED. RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS NOT AN UNHEARD OF COMPLAINT OR OCCURRENCE FOR THIS MAKE, MODEL, YEAR VEHICLE AS EVIDENCE BUY COMPLAINTS TO YOU. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED BY THE DEALERSHIP AND I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER AND ONLY DRIVER. THIS IS MY FIRST ACCIDENT IN OVER 50 YRS OF BEING A LICENSED DRIVER. *TR
