My car was parked for two weeks, as I just purchased another vehicle. I went to drive my 2001 Honda Accord ex sedan and all of my lights on the instrument panel were lit and the car was making a funny noise. After towing the vehicle to the shop I was told my alternator bracket bolt had broken off inside. After researching online I found a couple of complaints in regard to the same issue: Broken alternator bracket or lower mounting bolt. Honda. Tech line summary. www.lemonlawspecialists.com/tsb/Honda.html # tsb #05012004 -- broken alternator bracket or bracket mounting bolt. (NHTSA id #10013977, May 01 2004) www.carcomplaints.com/Honda/Accord/2001/tsbs.shtml.
