I recently purchased a set of 2000 Honda Accord 1 piece projector headlights from 4caroption.com. Few days after I installed the headlights I got pulled over by a police officer and was asked to put back my original headlights because I am required by law to have an amber reflector on my headlights. 4caroption.com never advised me about the headlights' design is against the law. I called 4caroption to ask for a full refund, but they told me they would only give me half of the payment back since I installed the headlights already.

Accord 6-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 69,000 miles
The SRS airbag light came on at approximately 69,000 mi.the car was taken to dealer and no fault codes were found on the computer. I had the delphi alternator load tested and determined that could be the culprit. During this time, I also had both of my headlamps burned out within weeks of each other. I replaced the alternator with an aftermarket one and have not had any problems since.

The alternator went out on the car with approximately 55,000 miles which is way too soon. The check engine light came on a couple of weeks later and had to replace the egr valve (covered under warranty). The right headlamp has been replaced at least 5 times since owning the car. It has been checked for an electrical short and nothing could be found. The factory-installed cd player failed at approximately 37,000 miles. I have always heard good things about the Honda, but I have not been too pleased with all the little nitpicking stuff. The original tires were replaced at the approximately 50000 mile mark. The new tires were dunlaps which failed within 8 months. Hopefully the new ones will make it.

All makes and models with halogen or hi intensity headlights are unsafe for on-oming drivers over 45. They hide features with a great deal of dangerous dazzling from light hitting "floaters" and cataracts that may be forming, and bouncing around within normal, but aging, eyes. Please investigate this age-related danger and take them off the road!

At first right light blewout; then, left side light went out. Consumer felt unsafe because there was a chance of being rear ended. Consumer while traveling on highway a motorist told him that consumer had no brake lights this was the second time in one year due to horn shortening out, first the left brake light and then the right one, also shifter will not come out of park unless the emergency release is used.
