problem #5

Aug 032015

Accord

  • 106,000 miles
On 8/03/2015 I was rear ended by another SUV that failed to stop while I was waiting behind a red light. The impact of the accident was severe enough to force my car to hit the other car in front of me and consequently I was taken but the ambulance to the local hospital for further physical examination. I am writing you this because after my release from the hospital I noticed due to the high speed impact the air bag light in my car had been turned on yet the air bag itself never deployed. Therefore I would like to make an official complaint and inquiry about the Honda auto company. I believe I might have skipped very serious physical injuries perhaps by luck yet the fact that the airbag of my Honda never deployed is rey disturbing to me. I would appreciate your help in this matter.

I pulled up to park at a bike trailhead and as I touched the brake the accelerator went to the floor, lurching the car forward and forcing the left front tire over the railroad tie parking marker. The car high centered and I pressed on the brake pedal but the engine kept racing. I finally got the car in park with engine still racing and shut the car off. When I turned the car on again, it responded normally. I took it to my local dealer and there were no error codes in the car electronic system.

All four of my door locking actuators have all "failed." The car randomly locks and unlocks on the highway and even though Honda has had a class action lawsuit over these door actuators for the CRV they are not replacing the Honda Accord ones (they will for a small fee of $1500).

I was in a parking lot. I made a right turn into a space and took my foot off the accelerator and had it on the brake when the car made a noise and accelerated on its own. I slammed down on the brake and the car stopped.

Window on the driver side is wobbling, and causing excessive, annoying noise. It's getting worst with time.
