Steering, hydraulic power assist, hose, piping, and connectionsMay 17, 2012
Honda is recalling certain model year 2007 and 2008 Acura TL and model year 2003-2007 Accord V6 vehicles. In May 2012, Honda filed a defect report to recall certain model year 2007 and 2008 Acura TL vehicles. In September 2012, Honda informed the agency that it was including an additional 573,147 vehicles including certain model year 2003 through 2007 Accord V6 vehicles. The total number of vehicles being recalled is now 625,762. Prolonged under-hood and power steering fluid temperatures may cause the power steering hose to deteriorate prematurely, resulting in cracks and power steering fluid leakage.
If this occurs, power steering fluid can leak onto a hot catalytic converter, leading to smoke and possibly an under-hood fire.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will install a new heat resistant power steering hose, free of charge. The original recall began in June 2012, and owners of those vehicles may obtain the free remedy. Sufficient parts are not yet available for owners of the vehicles covered by the September 2012 expansion, but are expected to be available in early 2013. Honda will notify owners of these vehicles beginning on October 26, 2012, and will notify these owners again when parts are available so those vehicles can be brought to dealers for applications of the free remedy.

ALL OF THIS KIND OF MODEL SHOULD BE AFFECTED BY THIS AIRBAG PROBLEM. AS PER MOTOR TREND THE RECALL DATE WAS JAN. 03, 2007. AND MOST AFFECTED IS 2005 HONDA ACCORD. PLEASE HELP ME THIS IS NOT SAFETY ANYMORE. *TR

I TOOK MY HONDA IN FOR A POWER STEERING RECALL THAT WAS ISSUED AND ASKED THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TO LOOK INTO THE REASON WHY THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ON. THEY CALLED ME BACK AND SAID THERE WERE TWO FAULT CODES ONE BEING THE DRIVER SEATBELT BUCKLE AND THE OTHER BEING THE DRIVERS SEAT POSITION SENSOR. I KNOW THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL ON THE DRIVER SEAT POSITION SENSOR BUT THEY SAID THAT MY VEHICLE'S VIN WAS NOT AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. THEREFORE, IN ORDER TO FIX THIS SENSOR I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO REPAIR THE PART. I CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY ALSO TOLD ME IT WAS MY RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR THE PART SINCE MY VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE A VIN AFFECTED BY THE DRIVER SEAT POSITION SENSOR RECALL. I FIND THIS ODD THAT MY VEHICLE IS OF A MAKE MODEL AND YEAR WITH A KNOWN DEFECTIVE PART BUT YET IT IS NOT INVOLVED IN THE RECALL. I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FURTHER TO SEE IF THERE ARE MORE MODELS THAT ARE AFFECTED BY THE DRIVERS SEAT POSITION SENSOR FOR THE AIR BAG. *TT

AIR BAG FAULTY LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. ALTHOUGH THERE IS A MASSIVE 2005 ACCORD AIRBAG MODULE RECALL BASED ON THE NHTSA INVESTIGATION 07V001000. THE 2005 ACCORD HYBRID IS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST. THERE SEEMS TO HAVE QUITE A FEW 2005 HYBRID OWNERS HAD ALREADY FILE THE SIMILAR COMPLAINT. (UNDER THE PROBLEM WITH THE SEAT SECTION) AIRBAG MALFUNCTION IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM BEHAVIOR IS RANDOM AND MAJORITY OF THE CUSTOMER MAY SEES IT AS "GLITCH" SINCE IT MAY GO AWAY BY TURNING THE KEY ON AND OFF AGAIN. *TR

I AM EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE THAT WAS CAUSED A RECALL FOR V6 MODEL OF THE SAME YEAR AND MAKE OF MY HONDA ACCORD.

CAR DETAILS: - 05 ACCORD SE COUPE WITH ~65K MILES (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, 4 CYLINDER) RECENTLY, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE CAR WILL NOT ACCELERATE EVEN WHEN I KEEP PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL. TYPICALLY HAPPENS AT AROUND 50 TO 60 MPH MARKER (THE MPH NEEDLE WILL JUST STALL AT ONE LOCATION AND NOT MOVE). I HAVE TO TAP THE BRAKE LIGHTLY A COUPLE OF TIMES OR LET THE CAR COAST DOWN WITHOUT GIVING IT ANY GAS (IT KIND OF RELEASES WHATEVER IS HOLDING THE CAR FROM ACCELERATING AND RELEASES THE MPH NEEDLE). I THEN ACCELERATE THE CAR AGAIN AND IT WILL GO HIGHER THAN 60 MPH. KEEPS HAPPENING OFTEN (NOT EVERY TIME THOUGH). MY GAS MILEAGE IS LOWER WHICH CONFIRMS THAT SOMETHING IS HAPPENING. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE ON HIGHWAYS. I AM NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED TO ALL THE TRANSMISSION FAILURE ISSUES THAT HONDA ACCORDS CONTINUE TO SEE ON MODELS MANUFACTURED IN THE MID 2000S. *TR

HONDA ACCORD 2005 SEEMS LIKE HAS FAULTY MECHANICAL ON THE BRAKE. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE DOWNWARD THE HILL AND MY BRAKE DID NOT STOP. I WAS SUSPICIOUS NOW THAT MY CAR HAS FAULTY MECHANICAL BRAKE BECAUSE ABOUT LESS THAN 2 YEARS AGO WHERE MY CAR HAS PROBLEM DID NOT BRAKE PROPERLY ON THE FREEWAY. THEN, I REPLACED MY BRAKE LESS THAN 2 YEARS AGO AT HONDA DEALER. THE LAST TIME MY CAR MAINTENANCE WAS APRIL 2013 AND THEY STATED THE BRAKES ARE STILL GOOD. *TR

OUR HONDA ACCORD WAS CROSSING A 4-LANE STREET FROM A STOP SIGN. A CAR COMING FROM THE RIGHT STRUCK THE PASSENGER SIDE OF OUR HONDA, CAUSING THE SIDE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. HOWEVER, THE SIDE AIR BAGS DID NOT INFLATE, CAUSING THE PASSENGER TO RECEIVE BRUISES AND ABRASIONS. NOTE: ALTHOUGH THIS HONDA ACCORD WAS A 2005, IT HAD LOW MILEAGE (30,000) AND WAS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. THE INSURANCE CO. TOTALED THE CAR. *TR

AT ONLY 93,000 MILES, MY TRANSMISSION IS SHOT. JUST ONE YEAR AFTER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY RUNS OUT BASED ON TIME, NOT MILEAGE. HONDA'S REPUTATION OF RELIABILITY MAKES PEOPLE NOT EVEN EXPECT TO BUY A WARRANTY. THEIR REPUTATION IS A LIE. ANY AMERICAN CAR WOULD HAVE A 100,000 MILE WARRANTY THE TRANSMISSION. I WILL DEFINITELY NEVER BUY A HONDA AGAIN. THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF REPLACING A TRANSMISSION SO EARLY ON IS NOT EASY AND THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED FOR IT'S COMMON DEFECT, AS I AM LEARNING ONLINE. *TR

I'VE NOTICED A FAULTINESS WITH THE AIRBAG LIGHT INDICATOR/SENSOR. AFTER THE ENGINE IS STARTED, THE LIGHT STAYS ON AND CONTINUES TO STAY ON UNTIL I RESTART THE ENGINE, AT WHICH TIME THE LIGHT MAY OR MAY NOT TURN OFF. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THERE IS A PASSENGER PRESENT IN THE PASSENGER'S SEAT OR NOT. THE LIGHT FAULTINESS HAPPENS AT RANDOM. THOUGH MANY MODELS OF HONDA ACCORDS HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE, HONDA IS TELLING ME MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT CAN AFFECT THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, CAUSING FULL-FORCE DEPLOYMENT REGARDLESS OF SEAT POSITION. *TR

HE FURTHER STATED THAT THIS TYPE OF LEAK GOES UN-NOTICED UNTIL TIMING BELT IS REPLACED. LOSS OF POWER CAN OCCUR IF TIMING BELT IS NOT SECURED. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 20/59 NEAR FT. PAYNE, ALABAMA WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET ON 75 MPH. I CHANGED LANES TO PASS A SLOWER CAR BUT DID NOT TOUCH THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR STARTED TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I TAPPED THE BREAKS TO TURN CRUISE CONTROL OFF BUT THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GAS PEDAL. THE ACCELERATION WAS NOT A FULL THROTTLE ACCELERATION, JUST A MODERATE INCREASE. I THEN SHIFTED THE CAR FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL AND THE RPM'S JUMPED UP TO REDLINE, AGAIN WITHOUT TOUCHING THE GAS PEDAL. LUCKILY, A REST AREA WAS APPROACHING AND I MANAGED TO PULL THE CAR INTO THE REST AREA PARKING LOT PLAYING WITH THE DRIVE/NEUTRAL OF THE TRANSMISSION AND USING THE BRAKES. ONCE I MADE IT TO A PARKING SPACE I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND SHIFTED IT INTO PARK. I WAITED A FEW SECONDS AND TURNED THE CAR BACK ON. THE RPM'S AGAIN JUMPED UP TO REDLINE WITHOUT ME TOUCHING THE GAS PEDAL. I SHUT THE CAR OFF AGAIN AND PUT MY FOOT UNDERNEATH THE GAS PEDAL AND PULLED UP. I CRANKED THE CAR AGAIN AND IT ACTED NORMAL. I CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AND EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. AFTER SOME DELIBERATION, WE DECIDED TO CONTINUE ON OUR TRIP AND THE CAR WAS FINE FOR THE NEXT 4.5 HOURS. WE DROVE BACK SUNDAY, MAY 19 AND THE CAR AGAIN DROVE FINE FOR 6.5 HOURS AND HASN'T HAD A PROBLEM SINCE. THE MORNING BEFORE THE INCIDENT, I CHANGED THE ALTERNATOR AND OIL. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THAT THIS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ALTERNATOR OR OIL CHANGE. ALSO, I DOUBLED CHECKED THE CARPET MAT IN THE CAR AND IT WAS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO THE GAS PEDAL. I AM NOT SURE IF ANYONE ELSE HAS EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM WITH A HONDA ACCORD. I AM A MECHANICAL ENGINEER AND I AM DUMBFOUNDED BY THIS. BEING IN A CAR WITH UNCONTROLLABLE ACCELERATION IS QUITE UNNERVING. *TR

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON A MONDAY NIGHT, I HAD MY PHONE IN THE FRONT SEAT WITH ME AND I HAD HEARD IT GO OFF A FEW MOMENTS EARLIER. I LOOKED OVER QUICKLY AT THE PHONE TO SEE WHO IT WAS,I QUICKLY LOOKED BACK AT THE ROAD, I WAS NOT ABLE TO STOP QUICK ENOUGH AND I HIT THE YOUNG LADY IN FROM OF ME. I WAS GOING ABOUT 40 MPH WHEN I HIT HER AND THERE IS SUBSTANTIAL DAMAGE TO MY CAR. WHAT REALLY PUZZLED ME WAS THAT MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, EVEN WITH AN IMPACT AS BIG AS THIS ONE. I HAVE SUSTAINED A FEW INJURIES BECAUSE OF THE LACK OF AIR BAG. *TR
