The contact owns a 2009 Honda Accord. While the vehicle was parked in the garage, the contact suddenly heard a loud pop sound. The contact opened the trunk and found that the passenger side supporting struts for the trunk door had burst open, which prevented the trunk from remaining open when in use.

I bought my car brand new in July 2009, in Nov. 2009 I started having issues with the door actuators. Since Nov. 2009 they have fixed my actuators 7 times, 4 times in 2012. I also have had the center arm rest replaced twice due to bubbling (needs to be replaced again). About 3 weeks ago I was unable to lock my car from the inside. This brings up a huge safety issue. I have also informed the dealership that my actuators are going again in my car. In August 2014, the dealership told me I would have to pay since my car is out of warranty. When I was unable to lock my car from the inside I decided to contact Honda. They refuse to fix the issue because my car is out of warranty and has 83,000 miles on it. Even though this has been an ongoing issue since Nov. 2009. My steering wheel has also cracked and the casing has had to be replaced. The vtc actuator had to be repaired ( I had to personally do research and diagnose my cars' issue and find the service bulletin in order for the dealership to cover/fix it). My car has run out of oil and had to go through an oil consumption test (yet my gauge still said 30%). the arm rest on the drivers door has also had to be replaced due to bubbling and slicing in the "leather". after all of these issues, Honda still refuses to fix the actuator problem because my car is no longer under warranty. I take excellent care of my car and expect Honda to stand behind their parts/products/cars, especially when it becomes a safety issue and the car cannot be locked from the inside.

I have a terrible problem when driving during the daytime. Sunlight shines in through the wind shield onto the dash board (directly behind my steering wheel) and reflects the dash board onto the wind shield in my total field of vision straight ahead. I'm not sure what to do about this but I have to do something because its like trying to see through a muddy glass and is very dangerous.

Uses excess amount of oil. Have to check daily. This is not normal. Have heard there is some kind of leak into the engine and a class action lawsuit. This should be a recall!!! also, metallic paint is peeling- very cheap and stereo system components not working. Also makes a loud weird sound from engine when it first starts.

A noise has developed in our 2009 Honda Accord in the dash, where the passenger side and right side "a" pillar air bags are located. The car has been returned to a local dealer on 3 seperate occasions. They continue to repair the problem by installing some type of padding in the dash. After each repair, the noise returns after driving about 10 miles. I have asked them on two separate occasions to remove the dash/air bags and inspect the effected areas. I have also reported the problem to the Honda customer assistance department. They have indicated they will review my information and have someone call back. My concerns are; that something is loose, creating the noise, along with the fact that some type of problem may exist with the air bags which could result in either an unwanted/non deployment situation or if something is rubbing on a wiring harness a passenger compartment fire.
