Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“Vehicle lost control suddenly while making u-turn. After this incident, I had to tow away this to my residence address. Vehicle starts but doesn't move in drive or reverse mode. Same is condition with d1, d2, d3. When put back to 'park gear', it makes annoying and very loud noise that tends the driver to turn ignition off.”
NHTSA complaint #11196228, filed 2019-04, 117,200 miles“The right axle broke while making a turn in feb 2019 on my 2007 Accord with a manual transmission because of corrosion. I live in northeast ohio where the roads are heavily salted. There has been a recent recall on 2007 Honda fit for the same problem”
NHTSA complaint #11384829, filed 2020-12, 104,000 miles“As I started the car in the morning, I felt jerk while it changed gears from 1st to 2nd and so on. I think it is a safety issue since it is unexpected and car can fail anytime and may cause accident. I have spoke to other owners of 2007 Honda Accord 3.0 and they have same problems, and I have also tried to contact american Honda but received no response.”
NHTSA complaint #10488747, filed 2012-12, 40,000 miles“I just bought the car and had it 1 week and I was driving to work when the check engine light came on suddenly and car started misfiring. This happened right when I was stopped at a light and turned on my A/C. 3 codes came on which were p0420, p0139, and p2647. I was told I need to reprogram the powertrain control module. I have seen many recalls on here for that same thing but when I put my VIN number in it says 0 recalls for my car. I just really feel it is related to campaign 11v395000”
NHTSA complaint #11340802, filed 2020-07, 140,000 miles“I've had my power steering pump and rack & pinion replaced. Power steering is still tough, feels like I'm turning the wheel with 40lb weights on each side of it. Suspension is failing, hitting a bump makes my car feel like the suspension is pushing up and makes it float momentarily and makes a slight noise while driving. Both cv axles failed front side at the same point of that rubber grommet in the middle, water gets trapped under it and makes it rust out....both of them snapped while I was driving at different points.”
