I HAVE HAD A TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN MY HONDA ACCORD. WHEN I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC IN PARKVILLE, MISSOURI, HE CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FOUND IT BLACK. HE FLUSHED THE TRANSMISSION, PUT NEW FLUID IN, AND CHANGED A FILTER BEHIND THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. HE TOLD ME THAT HONDA FROM 98 TO 2002 HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. HE…

I HAVE HAD A TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN MY HONDA ACCORD. WHEN I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC IN PARKVILLE, MISSOURI, HE CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION FLUID AND FOUND IT BLACK. HE FLUSHED THE TRANSMISSION, PUT NEW FLUID IN, AND CHANGED A FILTER BEHIND THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT. HE TOLD ME THAT HONDA FROM 98 TO 2002 HAD TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS. HE TOLD ME TO DRIVE THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND SEE IF THAT DIDN'T FIX IT. I COULD TELL AS I DROVE HOME THAT IT WAS NOT FIXED. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT A NEW TRANSMISSION WOULD COST 1,600 TO 1,800 DOLLARS. SINCE I HAVE HAD TO GET A NEW ENGINE IN MY ACCORD OR MY LEMON, THREE NEW BATTERIES, AND NOW A NEW TRANSMISSION AND IT IS NOT ALREADY PAID FOR BECAUSE I LEASED IT AND AM IN THE PROCESS OF BUYING IT, I NEED ALL THE HELP I CAN GET. *NM

DT: THE CONSUMER STATED 1999 HONDA ACCORD I HAD CARBON BUILD UP IN THE THROTTLE, WHICH IS RESULTED IN THE THROTTLE STICKING. REGARDLESS, OF HOW LONG THE VEHICLE SAT, WHEN THE CONSUMER GAVE THE VEHICLE GAS, THE THROTTLE STUCK. IT DID NOT MATTER IF IT WAS IN REVERSE OR FORWARD. THIS PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT, AND HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST 4 TO 5 YEARS. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED THIS TO THE DEALER. THEY SUGGESTED THAT SHE BRING IT IN FOR A THROTTLE CLEANING, WHICH SHE DID. THE MECHANIC FROM THE DEALERSHIP TOLD HER THAT SHE WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THIS DONE AGAIN BECAUSE IT WOULD CONTINUE TO HAPPEN. THE CONSUMER CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THE MANUFACTURER, AND THEY HAVE BEEN OF NO HELP. AND OFTEN REFER HER TO HAVE THE THROTTLE CLEANED AGAIN AT HER COST. AT THIS RATE, THE THROTTLE WOULD HAVE TO BE CLEANED EVERY FEW MONTHS. AT THIS POINT, THE THROTTLE IS STICKING AND NEEDS TO BE CLEANED, BUT THE OWNER SUGGESTED THAT THIS SHOULD BE COVERED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS A SAFETY IMPROVEMENT OR RECALL. *AK *JB

THAT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM SO I TOOK MY CAR TO A LOCAL HONDA REPAIR SHOP FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST. THEY INDICATED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED AND THEY QUOTED ME $1100 TO COMPLETE THE REPAIRS. I DO NOT HAVE THIS KIND OF MONEY LAYING AROUND. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THERE ARE 8 COMPLAINTS ON THIS WEBSITE REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS DOES IT TAKE BEFORE A RECALL IS ISSUED? NOT ONLY WILL I HAVE TO CONTINUE DRIVING WITH THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE I CAN'T AFFORD TO FIX IT, BUT I WILL BE POLLUTING THE ENVIRONMENT AT THE SAME TIME. I GUESS I NEED TO FILE A COMPLAINT WITH THE EPA AS WELL. PLEASE DO SOMETHING TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *NM

I PURCHASED A NEW 1999 HONDA ACCORD LX IN THE SUMMER OF '99. SEVERAL MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE, MY HUSBAND AND I NOTICED THAT THE BLACK PAINT WAS STARTING TO CHIP AND FLAKE. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE (PERFORMANCE HONDA, FAIRFIELD, OH) TO INQUIRE ABOUT THE SITUATION. THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR OFFERED MANY EXCUSES SUCH AS THAT I MUST HAVE DRIVEN THROUGH A STREET PAINTING PROJECT, ENCOUNTERED ACID RAIN, USED A POWER WASHER TOO OFTEN, OR DIDN'T KEEP THE VEHICLE CLEAN. MY HUSBAND AND I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF OUR VEHICLES WITH THE INTENT OF KEEPING THEM FOR MANY YEARS. THIS VEHICLE WAS WAXED WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH OF PURCHASE AND HAD BEEN WASHED AND MAINTAINED ON A REGULAR BASIS. WE CONTINUED TO SEE MORE PAINT SPECS MISSING IN THE BLACK PAINT. AT EACH SERVICE VISIT, I COMPLAINED ABOUT THE SITUATION. THE SERVICE MANAGER EVEN CAME TO OUR HOUSE AND TO MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. ALL OF THE EXCUSES POINTED TO OUR INADEQUATE CARE OF THE VEHICLE. ON MY LAST VISIT, THEY ASKED IF I WOULD LIKE A QUOTE ON A NEW PAINT JOB FROM THEIR BODY SHOP. I HAVE SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS ON HONDA WEB SITES AND I WONDER IF THERE WAS EVER ANYTHING DONE TO RESOLVE THE SITUATION WITH THIS BATCH OF BAD PAINT. HONDA SEEMS UNWILLING TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION OR OFFER ANY COMPENSATION FOR THE PAINT TROUBLES. *NM

Official recalls
4Jan 17, 2020
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 1998 Acura 2.2CL, 1998-1999 Acura 2.3CL, 1998-1999 Acura 3.0CL, 2001 Acura 3.2CL and Acura MDX, 1998-2000 Honda Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Sedan, Odyssey and Acura 3.5RL, 1999-2000 Acura 3.2TL, 1996-2000 Civic Coupe, 1997-2000 CR-V, 1997-1998 EV Plus, and 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis vehicles. These vehicles were equipped with Non-Azide Driver air bag Inflators (NADI) and do not contain phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant. Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, causing the inflators to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the driver frontal air bag inflator, and replace it if necessary, with an inflator of a different design, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138 or Isuzu customer service at 1-800-255-6727.
Jan 28, 2005
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES, THE INTERLOCK OPERATION OF THE IGNITION SWITCH MAY NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY, MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY TO THE "OFF" POSITION AND REMOVE THE KEY WITHOUT SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO PARK.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE DRIVER DOES NOT SHIFT TO PARK BEFORE REMOVING THE KEY AND FAILS TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE, THE VEHICLE COULD ROLL AND A CRASH COULD OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL PERFORM AN INSPECTION PROCEDURE THAT CONFIRMS INTERLOCK FUNCTION. VEHICLES WILL BE UPDATED WITH A REDESIGNED INTERLOCK LEVER FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MARCH 7, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009 OR ACURA AT 1-800-382-2238.
Oct 27, 2003
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES AND MINI VANS, THE IGNITION SWITCH MAY WEAR EXCESSIVELY AND PREVENT PROPER INTERLOCK OPERATION, MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY TO THE "OFF" POSITION AND REMOVE THE KEY WITHOUT SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO "PARK."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE VEHICLE OPERATOR DOES NOT SHIFT TO "PARK" BEFORE REMOVING THE KEY AND FAILS TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE, THE VEHICLE COULD ROLL AND A CRASH COULD OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL PERFORM AN INSPECTION PROCEDURE THAT DETERMINES THE AMOUNT OF CYLINDER BODY WEAR. IF SIGNIFICANT WEAR IS INDICATED, THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE CYLINDER BODY, COLLAR, AND LATCH PLATE. IF NO SIGNS OF WEAR ARE INDICATED, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE LATCH PLATE WITH A REDESIGNED PART. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN DECEMBER 8, 2003. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009 OR ACURA AT 1-800-382-2238.
May 16, 2002
ON CERTAIN SEDANS, COUPES, HATCHBACKS, AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, ELECTRICAL CONTACTS IN THE IGNITION SWITCH CAN DEGRADE DUE TO THE HIGH ELECTRICAL CURRENT PASSING THROUGH THE SWITCH WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: WORN CONTACTS COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE IGNITION SWITCH. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN JUNE 14, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009 OR ACURA AT 1-800-382-2238.
