Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving about 40 miles per hour when I lost control of my steering wheel, I couldn't control it, the car slid to the oncoming traffic where I hit a oncoming car, my air bag deployed I had a seat belt, which the both did more damage to my chest then the accident itself. My car is considered totalled.”
NHTSA complaint #11121205, filed 2018-08, 40 miles“The locks on my car will not open. Regardless of the wireless entry or manually opening with a key or even from the inside. This is a safety hazard because when attempting to unlock the doors, the door unlocks then locks. The doors will not open under any circumstances. This is a severe hazard as my children were locked in the car and I had to take necessary measures to get in the car through the trunk to get them out. Honda said there is no recall on this item and I find this unacceptable. …”
NHTSA complaint #11181296, filed 2019-02, 63,698 miles“2007 Honda accords trunk spring seems to have no effect, and it slams down easily if it is not fully raised. The trunk slammed down on my wife's arm a few times when she is putting in the grocery (her wrist was badly bruised). I took it to the dealership, but they will not fix it stating that it is not an issue. Honda did fix the problem for the 2009 model.”
NHTSA complaint #10256180, filed 2009-01, 24,000 miles“While making a turn onto a highway, our Honda Accord had complete and catastrophic failure of the front ball joint with total loss of steering. Front axle literally fell onto the roadway and front left tire was perpendicular to the car body and kept us from bottoming out. Thankfully no others cars in immediate area and we were not hit by another vehicle. We were also driving slowly so no injuries even though car was not able to be controlled. Called Honda america and they said this is a unique problem and that this has never been an issue with their cars. …”
NHTSA complaint #10722177, filed 2015-05, 108,000 miles“Vehicle slide over to hit with another vehicle and air bags launched. My wife/passenger has very bad injuries and hospitalized. Both legs broken and still she has panic attacks and occasionally experiences ankle pains from the injuries caused from the incident.”
