Service brakes, hydraulic, antilock/traction control/electronic limited slip, wheel speed sensor/tone ringSep 5, 2007
ON CERTAIN VEHICLES, THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR HOUSING USES AN O-RING SEAL TO PREVENT LEAKAGE TO OR FROM THE WHEEL BEARING. IF ASSEMBLED IMPROPERLY, THE O-RING MAY NOT SEAL PROPERLY ALLOWING WATER TO ENTER THE WHEEL BEARING AND EVENTUALLY CAUSE DAMAGE TO THE BEARING, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS WHERE USE OF ROAD SALT IS PREVALENT. IF THE DRIVER CONTINUES TO DRIVE WITH THIS CONDITION IT IS POSSIBLE FOR THE WHEEL BEARING TO BECOME LOOSE, WHICH COULD CAUSE THE BEARING TO FAIL.
THIS COULD CAUSE A WHEEL TO FALL OFF OF THE VEHICLE, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A CRASH.
DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE REAR ABS SENSORS AND WHEEL BEARINGS FOR DAMAGED PARTS AND REPLACE THEM FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 25, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009.

CRACK FORMED OVERNIGHT ON 9/30/10-10/1/10. WINDSHIELD WAS SMOOTH TO THE TOUCH FROM BOTH THE OUTSIDE AND INSIDE ALL ALONG THE LENGTH AND BREADTH OF THE CRACK. *TR

THE SUN VISORS (BOTH DRIVERS AND PASSENGER ) SPLIT AT THE TOP SEAMS WHERE THEY ARE GLUED TOGETHER, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR VISORS TO STAY UP; THUS OBSCURING THE VISION OF BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE PASSENGER SUN VISOR HAS BEEN REPLACED FOR THE SAME DEFECT WHICH IS A MANUFACTURING, DESIGN, AND ENGINEERING DEFECT. I WAS ADVISED BY SEVERAL HONDA EMPLOYEES THAT NUMEROUS SUN VISORS ARE REPLACED ON A WEEKLY BASIS FOR THE IDENTICAL DEFECT, JUST AT ONE DEALERSHIP. THIS IS NOT A DEALERSHIP ISSUE BUT A HONDA ISSUE. IT IS TO BE NOTED THAT THE SUN VISORS WERE IN NO WAY ABUSED OR EVEN USED THAT MUCH BUT THE SEAMS JUST SPLIT. I HAVE BEEN IN LAW ENFORCEMENT FOR OVER THIRTY YEARS AND CAN ASSURE YOU THAT THIS DEFECT NOT ONLY AFFECTS THE INDIVIDUALS IN THE HONDA WITH THE DEFECTIVE SUN VISORS BUT OTHER DRIVERS AND PEDESTRIANS AS WELL, RESULTING FROM THE OBSCURED VISION, I WAS ADVISED THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF THE DEFECT BUT CONTINUES TO USE THE SAME SUN VISORS IN NEW VEHICLES AND THAT THEY CONTINUE TO FAIL BY SPLITTING AT THE SEAMS THERE WAS NO RESULTING ACCIDENT, I WAS ADVISED THAT THE SUN VISORS WOULD HAVE TO BE RETURNED TO HONDA BUT I DID PHOTOGRAPH THEM AND THE PHOTOS ARE AVAILABLE. IT IS TO BE NOTED THAT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP WAS EXCELLENT AND THAT HONDA DID REPLACE THEM AT A REDUCED COST EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 51,000 MILES ON IT AND WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. *TR

CAR SITS IN THE SUN WHILE AT WORK. I HAVE TINTED WINDOWS, LEAVE THEM SLIGHTLY CRACKED TO GET SOME AIRFLOW, AND ALSO USE A SUN SHIELD ON THE WINDSHIELD TO KEEP AS MUCH HEAT OUT AS I CAN. STILL, THE SUN VISOR HINGES FAIL AND THE VISORS HANG DOWN IN YOUR FACE WITH NO WAY TO GET THEM OUT OF THE WAY EXCEPT REMOVING THEM FROM THE CAR COMPLETELY. I HAD ONE VISOR REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY LAST YEAR, AND NOW BOTH DRIVER/PASSENGER VISORS ARE BROKEN IN THE EXACT SAME MANNER, INCLUDING THE VISOR THAT WAS ALREADY REPLACED ONCE. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND HAVING THE VISOR FLIP DOWN IN YOUR FACE WITH NO WAY TO MOVE IT OUT OF THE WAY IS A BIG PROBLEM. I'M A PRETTY TALL GUY, AND THE VISOR IS DIRECTLY IN MY FIELD OF VISION WHEN IT FALLS DOWN. HOLDING IT UP OUT OF THE WAY WITH ONE HAND, SECOND HAND ON THE WHEEL, AND TRYING TO SHIFT TO GET OFF THE INTERSTATE TO REMOVE THE VISOR IS NO EASY TASK... AS FAR AS I CAN TELL, THERE HAS BEEN NO REDESIGN OF THIS PART, SO IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN (SEEMINGLY EVERY SUMMER) EVEN IF I WERE TO PAY TO GET THE VISORS REPLACED EACH YEAR. *TR
