NHTSA complaint #10960014, filed 2017-03, 147,000 miles“What is going on??? How can Honda take zero responsibly for this? My car is in great condition mechanically but the outside is so rough. The paint is peeling everywhere, terrible on my hood, roof and trunk. This is not normal wear and tear. This is an issue! Help please!”
NHTSA complaint #10992881, filed 2017-06, 175,000 miles“The gear shift release button dislodged from the shaft so you were unable to shift into a gear- it just fell out, never seemed loose. When I had the problem corrected I was told by Honda that this problem is very prevelant in the 2004 Accord (v-6) and that they sell many of these gear shift buttons a week! That tells me that there is a system-wide problem with this although I have never received a notification.”
NHTSA complaint #10663114, filed 2014-12, 115,657 miles“While driving, I hear and feel a loud thump, the car begins to jerk, slows down, and three different lights appear all at once on the dashboard. It's beginning to happen more frequently. Problem has been ongoing for the past two years. No one can seem to tell me what's wrong. I am aware that Honda passed a recall on the transmission on the same year, make, and model of my car, but my car wasn't able to take advantage of the recall, because my VIN # didn't apply. …”
