I was turning right on a very busy four lane street and the left front CV-shaft (axle) broke into. Thank goodness I had enough momentum to get off the street. Honda had a rubber damper on the shaft that trapped salt and water, thus rusting and weaken the axle. Hinda had a recall on later model Hondas, but not my year.

I have been told my vehicle is a lemon. I believe the regular maintenance schedule that I have been adhering to should somewhat avoid this issue. I have went to two Honda Dealerships, Ed Napelton and one in Orland Park il. THREE weeks ago I drove and parked came back attempted to start and my Baby would not start. I noticed when i attempted to turn the key the needle would go to the top. I waited a while the car started took her in to wd Napelton, They kept telling me nothing was wrong. They said I could leave because they did not choose to figure out why my vehicle had just not started, so I went to my car to leave and she did not start right their in the parking lot. I went and go my mechanic and he tried to start it wouldn't start, he looked at the dash and said your car is overheating. Im asking why it was just here for a oil change and some other work prior to that. I had file a BBB complaint. The director called ke in for a meeting with the mechanic and from what they are saying because No one has given me anything in writing, I was told to be careful driving and every week My coolant should be topped off. They did say the coolant is leaking into my engine. I got a 3rd opinion and honda ahould have goven me a detailed description of the diagnosis. The sales department is bothering me about buying my car, I told them NO, I need my cat I cant afford another vehicle. My gut is telling me Honda has done thia to my engine thinking I will have to buy another Vehicle. Please Help Me get a proper diagnosis and I need to know how this issue was caused? My last recourse is speaking with ATTORNEY.

I am having issues with my transmission. My gears get stuck between 2nd and 3rd gear while driving. It loses power and I have to switch to Neutral and put it back in Drive in order for it to become unstuck. I have taken it to Honda, and they told me it was the computer, and several other things. They replaced $2000 worth of parts and the problem still happens. I took it back to Honda and they told me I needed a new transmission after they took $2000 from me. This initially started approximately 5 months ago when my engine light came on.

Also, I found out that the VTC Actuator on honda accord is a common failure. This is not a coincidence, it is a manufacture defect. In addition, it is putting my life in danger while it may cause engine failure. The VTC actuator rattles have been confirmed by independent mechanic.
