At around 7:25am this morning I was driving to work in traffic and I was needing to stop, but my brakes were not working properly. They went all the way to the floor, no pressure, and I rear ended another person going 35mph. My entire front-end of my vehicle is totalled and my airbags did not even deploy. After the wreck I pumped my breaks to try to move it off the freeway and the breaks started to work again. This is a serious problem because had I been going any faster and even had my other family in the car we all could have been seriously injured or died!!

2012 Accord exl - Engine Seizure! I had the air-bag recall done about 5 years ago. None of the air-bags deployed when the 2012 exl hit a telephone pole at 20 mph and broke the telephone pole in half. I finally found out about the class action lawsuit for the excessive oil consumption yesterday (1 Qt per 1,000 miles), 2 years after the engine seizure. I spoke with Honda headquarters (1919 Torrance Blvd., Torrance, ca 90501) today for an hour and a half. mostly on hold waiting for [XXX] to get her stupervisor [XXX] to come to the phone. Honda Seemed to think my 2012 v6 exl is not part of the lot of cars they were supposed to fix in the excessive oil consumption class action lawsuit. If you have any advice on how I could recover any funds spent on my engine repair or if there is any recourse I could take with the airbags not deploying when I had the recall done 5 years ago at my local Honda dealer. Thanks [XXX] PS.. Cherokee Auto in North Atlanta Georgia has the car for sale with the faulty airbags… CarMax repossessed it, sold it for more than I owed them, wrote off $6500 as bad debt, and still say I owe them 750 and staying on my credit report.

MY HONDA HAS A RECALL TO REPLACE THE AIR BAG(S). THE PROBLEM IS THAT I DO NOT TRUST THE LOCAL DEALER, LARRY MILLER HONDA TO WORK ON MY CAR. I HAD A RECALL OF A PREVIOUS HONDA CIVIC, THE DEALER TOLD ME I NEEDED $800 IN REPAIRS TO MY SUSPENSION, I TOOK THE CAR TO A HIGHLY TRUSTED LOCAL SUSPECNSION SERVICE, THEY SAID THE ONLY THING THAT NEEDED DONE WAS AN ALIGNMENT. THEY HAD THE PROBLEM LIST FROM THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER. THEN, FRIEND OF MINE BOUGHT A NEW TOYOTA FROM LARRY MILLER TOYOTA. WHEN HER CAR HAD 18,000 MILES ON IT THEY TOLD THE DIFFERENTIAL FLUID NEEDED REPLACE, AND OTHER WORK NEEDED DONE, THEY CHARGED HER OVER $200! WE KNOW THAT IF ANY WORK NEEDED TO BE DONE ON HER TOYOTA IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY, SHE HAD OWNED THE CAR LESS THAN 2 YEARS. SO, THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT TO BE TRUSTED. I WOULD LIKE TO GET HE AIR BAGS REPLACED, ANY SUGGESTIONS?

POHANKA HONDA (CAPITOL HEIGHTS, MD) - ADDRESSED THE PASSENGER AIR BAG RECALL. HOWEVER, IMMEDIATELY AFTER BEING SERVICED, THE WARNING LIGHT(S) REGARDING THE PASSENGER AIRBAG REMAINED ON (WHEN IT SHOULDN'T), AND DID NOT INDICATE (OFF) WHEN IT SHOULD HAVE. I REPORTED BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD - THAT IT IS UNRELATED TO THE RECALL THEY HAD ADDRESSED, AND IT WAS A "SENSOR" ISSUE SEPARATE FROM THE RECALL WORK. THIS WAS NOT AN ISSUE FOR ME PRIOR TO HAVING THE RECALL ADDRESSED, BUT NOW I HAVE THIS ISSUE AND I'D HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT ADDRESSED. HOW DO I KNOW IF THE PASSENGER AIR BAG RECALL REPAIR WAS DONE CORRECTLY, HOW DO I KNOW I AM NOT DRIVING AT RISK...WHY AM I ORDERED TO PAY TO RESOLVE SOME ISSUE THAT WAS NOT APPARENT BEFORE TAKING MY CAR TO THIS DEALERSHIP.

I WAS TRAVELING AT SPEED LIMIT, APPROX 42 MPH AND SHE WAS TRAVELING AT EXCESSIVE SPEED BUT I AM UNAWARE OF HER SPEED LIMIT. MY VEHICLE CONTINUED IN A STRAIGHT PATH BUT COMPLETELY TOTALED THE FRONT END AND DRIVER'S SIDE FRONT PANEL, FRAME, ETC. AS FOR MY MY INJURY, I FELT BURNT ON BOTH WRISTS AT THE TIME OF IMPACT, BUT DUE TO SHOCK OF ACCIDENT I DID NOT SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION.

TAKATA INFLATORS: THERE ARE CURRENTLY FOUR RECALLS FOR HONDA ACCORD 2012 FOR PASSENGER INFLATORS BUT FOR MY VIN THERE ARE NONE. MY VEHICLE WHICH ONLY HAS 39K MILES FAILED INSPECTION FOR MY SRS LIGHT. REGARDLESS OF THE MILLIONS OF AIRBAG RECALLS HONDA HAS DONE THEY REFUSED TO SCAN MY CAR FOR THE SRS CODE UNLESS I PAID THEM FOR IT. I WENT TO AUTOZONE AND HAD THE SCAN DONE FOR FREE AND GOT SRS CODE 32-10 "OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE IN THE RIGHT SIDE AIRBAG INFLATOR". I CANNOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE NOW BECAUSE OF THIS AND CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THE 1400 PLUS DOLLARS TO HAVE THESE ITEMS THAT SHOULDN'T BE DEFECTIVE IN THE FIRST PLACE REPAIRED. NOW I HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL MY VEHICLE IS ADDED TO THE RECALL LIST.
