  9. 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. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-800-999-1009.

    HONDA IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2005-2010 ACCORD, 2007-2010 CR-V, AND 2005-2008 ELEMENT PASSENGER CARS MANUFACTURED FROM JULY 1, 2004, THROUGH SEPTEMBER 3, 2010. THE OUTER RACE OF THE SECONDARY SHAFT BEARING MAY BE BROKEN DURING CERTAIN DRIVING STYLES. A BROKEN OUTER RACE MAY CAUSE ABNORMAL NOISE, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT TO TURN ON, AND ALLOW CONTACT BETWEEN THE TRANSMISSION IDLE GEAR AND AN ELECTRONIC SENSOR HOUSING WITHIN THE TRANSMISSION.

ADDITIONALLY, BROKEN PIECES OF THE OUTER RACE OR BALL BEARING FROM THE SECONDARY SHAFT MAY BECOME LODGED IN THE PARKING PAWL RESULTING IN THE VEHICLE ROLLING AFTER THE DRIVER HAS PLACED THE GEAR SELECTOR IN THE PARK POSITION. ENGINE STALL AND UNEXPECTED VEHICLE MOVEMENT INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH OR PERSONAL INJURY TO PERSONS WITHIN THE PATH OF A ROLLING VEHICLE.

    HONDA WILL NOTIFY OWNERS AND DEALERS WILL UPDATE THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE FREE OF CHARGE. THE SAFETY RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 27, 2011. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA AUTOMOBILE CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 1-800-999-1009.

    TOOK CARE IN FOR MAINTENANCE. WAS TOLD COMPLIANCE BUSHING IS WEARING AND SHOULD BE REPLACED SOON. I'M FINDING THIS ITEM COST ABOUT $20. AND SEVERAL HUNDREDS TO FIX DUE TO LABOR. LOOKING AT ALL THE BLOGS, THIS PARTICULAR ITEM HAS UPSET MANY BECAUSE OF THE DESIGN AND LOOKS TO BE A CASH COW FOR THE DEALERSHIPS. IF I WEE TO PURCHASE ALL BUSHINGS FOR THE LOWER CONTROL ARM (3 EACH SIDE) THE TOTAL IN PARTS WOULD BE $89. BUT TO HAVE THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE JUST ONE BUSING WOULD BE OVER $500. THE LOWER CONTROL ARM HAS TO BE REMOVED TO REPLACE JUST THE ONE BUSHING. TO PURCHASE THE LOWER CONTROL ARM WHICH INCLUDES THE 3 BUSHINGS, IS JUST OVER $300 PER SIDE. PLUS READING ALL THE BLOGS, THE COMPLIANCE BUSHING HAS A TENDENCY TO WEAR QUICKLY. HONDA SHOULD FIX AT NO COST TO THE OWNER. *TR

  12. Steering, Dec 28, 2013

    MY ISSUE RELATES TO THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT DEVELOPED OVER TIME, WORSENED, I PAID BOATLOADS OF MONEY OVER TIME, ONLY TO HAVE IT REOCCUR OVER & OVER. I'VE ACTUALLY EXPERIENCED OTHER ISSUES BUT SINCE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AND I'VE PAID GOOD MONEY TO HAVE REPAIRED ON A FEW OCCASIONS, ONLY TO BE BACK AT SQUARE ONE TODAY BARELY ABLE TO STEER THE CAR I'VE DECIDED TO STICK TO THIS ALONE. THIS ISSUE IS PROBABLY AS MUCH AN ISSUE WITH DEFECTIVE POWER STEERING AS IT IS WITH HONDA NOT ADDRESSING MY PROBLEM. IN OTHER WORDS SINCE FROM AROUND 50,000 THRU TODAY THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM WHICH THEY ONLY SUGGESTED TO DO ONE SERVICE, THE PROBLEM TEMP WOULD GO AWAY, ONLY TO REAPPEAR SHORTLY THEREAFTER DRAGGING ME BACK IN ALL OVER AGAIN. HIGH-PRESSURE HOSE @ $58,000, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER POWER STEERING PUMP THAT I WAITED TILL 72,000 TO PAY FOR, ALMOST IMMEDIATELY THEREAFTER THE RACK & PINION WHICH I PUT OFF TILL 93,000 DUE TO THE COST AND HOW MUCH ALL OF THE OTHER PROBLEMS WERE COSTING ME. TODAY THE CAR HAS 104,000. I HAD ALL WORK DONE BY HONDA UP TO 85,000, BUT HAVE TRIED TO SAVE MONEY AND HAVE HAD SOMEONE ELSE DO THE RACK & PINION AND A FEW OTHER COSTLY ITEMS SINCE. I WENT BACK TO HONDA TODAY FOR THEIR OPINION - NET RESULT - ALL OF THE ABOVE ITEMS HAVE A BAD LEAK AND NEED TO BE DONE ALL OVER AGAIN - $2400 COST! THE OTHER THING I WANT TO ADD IS THE RECALL ON HONDA ACCORDS "HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE" - OF COURSE, THE RECALL WAS NOT UNTIL AFTER I'D ALREADY PAID FOR THE SERVICE - MY CAR'S HOSE WENT BAD & NEEDED TO BE REPLACED FOR THE SAME REASON AS WHICH ALL OF THE OTHER HONDAS WERE UNDER RECALL FOR (THE HEAT OF THE ENGINE CAUSED IT TO MELT). WHEN I HEARD ABOUT THE RECALL I ANTICIPATED RECEIVING A LETTER IN THE MAIL BUT NEVER DID - THE REASON WAS THAT THE RECALL FOR THE HOSE WAS FOR MANY OTHER MODEL YEARS NOT INCLUDING 2007 (MY CAR YEAR). *TR

THEY WANTED OVER $600 TO REPLACE THE HOSE. I BELIEVE THE HOSE WAS DEFECTIVE AND THE FLUSH FINISHED IT OFF. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE HOSE WAS NOT RECALLED FOR MY VEHICLE VIN NUMBER. I CAN'T AFFORD TO PAY THAT MUCH FOR A HOSE AND THE CAR MIGHT CATCH ON FIRE IF THE HOSE IS NOT REPLACED. IF IT DOES, I AM SUING HONDA FOR DEFECTIVE HIGH PRESSURE POWER STEERING HOSE DAMAGES. *TR
