DRIVER'S DOOR "FROZE" SHUT, DOOR WAS INOPERABLE. LOCK ASSEMBLY/ACTUATOR MECHANISM THAT FROZE ALSO CONTROLS AUTOMATIC SHOULDER HARNESS, WHICH WOULD NOT WORK. CONTACTED SEVERAL HONDA DEALERSHIPS, KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 1990 AND 1991 MODELS. THEY HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME KEEPING PART 364246 LOCK ASSEMBLY ($265) IN STOCK, DUE TO NUMBER OF FAILURES. HONDA WOULD DRILL OPEN DOOR AND REPLACE ASSEMBLY FOR $800. SAFETY HAZARD CREATED BY BOTH DRIVER'S DOOR AND SHOULDER SEAT BELT BEING INOPERABLE. IF KNOWN SAFETY HAZARD/DEFECT, WHY IS CONSUMER EXPECTED TO PAY $800?*AK

THIS SENSOR PROBLEM LOCKS THE GEAR SHIFTER IN THE PARK POSITION AND ALSO PROHIBITS THE DRIVER FROM REMOVING THE KEY FROM THS IGNITION SWITCH. THIS PROBLEMS STARTED IN THE EARLY YEARS FO THE VEHICLE AND HAVE PROGRESSED WITH THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE BUT NO PROBLEMS WERE DISCOVERED. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH OTHER HONDA OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THE EXACT SYMPTONS. *AK

DIVER SIDE DOOR WAS INOPERATIVE, COULD NOT OPEN FROM INSIDE OR OUTSIDE. LOCKSMITHS COULD NOT OPEN DOOR. REQUIRED BODY SHOP TO REMOVE ENTIRE DOOR REPLACE ENTIRE LOCKING SYSTEM. ENTIRE EFFORT COST IN EXCESS OF $600.00. LOCAL HONDA DEALER REPORTED THIS AS A PROBLEM AND REQUIRES THE INSIDE PANNEL TO BE CUT AWAY AND AIR CHISEL THE LOCKING DEVICE FREE.

ALL 4 TIRES BECAME DEFECTS AFTER 10,000 MILES. IT HAPPENED ONE AT A TIME AND I HAVE ASKED THEM TO MAKE SURE THE OTHERS WERE OK. 2 OF T HEM (FRONT) HAD BULGES IN THEM, THE 2 IN THE BACK HAD TREAD SEPERATION AND THANKFULLY I FELT IT BEFORE IT BLEW UP. THEY CHARGED ME OVER $30 TO CHANGE EACH ONE EVEN THOUGH IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY FOR 30,000 MILES. AS FOR THE LAST AND MOST RECENT ONE JUST A WEEK AGO, I TOOK IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER AND (FIRESTONE AS WELL) AND HE TOLD ME HE NEVER SOLD THAT TIRE BEFORE AND GAVE ME A DIFFERENT ONE FOR ONLY $15. I HAVE CALLED FIRESTONE AND THEY SIMPLY DIDN'T CARE AND THEY TOLD ME IT'S NORMAL TO CHARGE THAT MUCH TO CHANGE A TIRE. THOSE TIRES WERE SELLING AS 4 FOR $99 SO I'M SURE OTHERS BOUGHT THEM AND HAD SIMILAR PROBLEMS AS WELL. I HAVE BEEN AWAITING TO SEE IF THEY GET RECALLED BUT THEY NEVER DID. SO PLEASE HELP ME BECAUSE 3 OF THE TIRES REPLACED WERE REPLACED WITH THE SAME EXACT BRAND AND TYPE AND SIZE. I STILL FEEL THE FEAR OF SOMETHING HAPPENING WHILE I'M GOING AT HIGH SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY. SO FAR WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE 4 FOR $99 PLUS INSTALLATION WHICH WAS OVER $150, HAD COST ME OVER $100 MORE FOR A TOTAL OF MORE THAN $250 AND THAT IS WHILE THEY WERE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THANKS FOR TRYING TO HELP. *AK( DOT NUMBER: ??? TIRE SIZE: 185/70 R14 )
