“After getting the Honda Accord steering hose replaced due to overheating, I begin to hear noises and have steering issues. I took my car to the dealership and was told that I need to replace the rack and pion steering and the power steering pump. I believe that due to the power steering hose was the cause to additional problems to the steering.”
NHTSA complaint #10564467, filed 2014-02, 128,000 miles“I was turning into a parking space with my foot on the brake when my engine accelerated fast and the brakes could not stop it. I crashed over a concrete thing and crashed into another car, causing major damage.”
NHTSA complaint #11121006, filed 2018-08, 190,000 miles“My car is not equipped with stability control, but it does have traction control, which can be disabled by a switch on the left end of the dashboard. The traction control seems to work well at speeds above 30 MPH, but when starting out, if the car hits a slippery patch, instead of pulsing the brakes to keep the wheels from spinning, as the chrysler lhs I owned previously did, it simply gives up, cutting most of the engine power, leaving the car unable to go more than 2 or 3 MPH. …”
NHTSA complaint #10826031, filed 2016-02, 100 miles“I was leaving a store on hull st. And my car was at about 40 MPH and all of a sudden stopped moving and I felt that it was something bad so I cut the car off and restarted my car and it started up nicely once I switched gears from park to reverse the car didn't move. So I went to put car into park and there was a really loud noise which scared me crazy. I cut the car back off and it began to roll backwards in the park gear so I had to put the car emergency break on to keep in place. …”
NHTSA complaint #10766509, filed 2015-09, 109,000 miles“Honda 2005 Accord ex: my power windows will not always function. Window will not go down when switch is pressed. If it is down, it will not come up. Neither direction works correctly. This has been happening for almost 5 months. This week the window went down while I was driving but had not pressed the switch. Our Honda fit 2007 just received a recall notice for this exact issue. Is there also a problem with Honda Accord 2005?”
