I don't want to have to get a new car! I can't get a new car and used cars are not reliable either!!!!!
The front balance shaft failed which caused an oil leak.
While driving 75 MPH the oil drained from the vehicle, causing engine to lock up. Dealer determined that plug from engine housing came out. *ak while driving the service engine soon light illuminated, vehicle would not accelerate or respond, engine locked up, consumer was not able to restart the vehicle, dealer replaced the timing belt, balancer shaft belt, balancer shaft seal and a retainer was put in to hold the shaft seal in place, consumer has been informed that a new engine is needed, consumer states there are two bulletins regarding the front balancer shaft seal and the front balancer seal, however honda will only pay 1/3 of the engine replacement cost. Faulty brakes were causing a noise in the right front, dealer machined rotors and serviced front brakes.
I recently was a victim of a honda recall on front balancer shaft seal, which causes oil to be rapidly pumped out engine without warning, causing serious engine damage. I took my car to empire honda in denver,co (303)-399-8443. At empire honda they admitted it was the honda recall that caused me to almost wreck on the highway. They stated that it was covered under the honda recall and they started to make repairs. When they discovered that I needed a new engine, they stated they would only cover 1/3 of the cost. Which is totally unacceptable, because problem never would have occurred if it were not for the "defect" in honda cars. I have the papers on the honda recall that states honda is suppost to replace my engine at no cost (front balancer shaft oil seal replacement pg. 5 "d"). I know you have access to these papers please look at them, so you can see that I am correct. Honda is trying to weasel their way out of taking responsibility for the "defects" in honda cars. If there is any information or help that would help me in my fight against honda to make them take responsibilty for their defects, please contact me (303)-458-6314. If there is anybody that can make honda take responsibility it is the federal safety agency.
While driving vehicle lost all oil and engine seized. Dealer has yet to be contacted. Please provide further details.
A valve connected to engine broke, causing damage to cylinder head.
Brittle fracture to the key way holding cam gear in place on end of the camshaft.
After taking vehicle in to dealer to get serviced dealer noted that engine block had a crack, and it was leaking oil onto engine.
Vehicle had a cracked engine block. Dealer has repaired vehicle.*ak the engine block was defective. The consumer states there had been many engine block failures.
During routine service, mechanic found an oil leak. Leaked caused by a crack in the engine block. Crack caused by a bracket mounted to the block that holds up the exhaust manifold. The hold was cleaned out and filled. Owner fells that this does not correct the problem and engine should be replaced.
Engine oil seepage from front of engine block, cost me $1400 for labor, honda took care of engine cost. This happened before honda conducted a campaign for engine oil leakage. Honda said, that what happened to my car wasn't correlated to the campaign. Every scheduled maintenance I took my car to a certified honda center plus the car haven't driving a lot in 2000 since I'm in the military and deployed to korea for a year without my car, my wife was only driving the car on base and short errands off-base. I want for honda to admit that what happened to my car was a major safety manufacturing defect and reimburse me for what I paid ($1400) to get engine replaced.
Engine crack
While on the highway, the camshaft seal failed and all the oil leaked out of the engine, casuing the engine to be destroyed. The cam shaft seal has been recalled by honda.
A valve connected to engine broke, causing damage to a cylinder head. Dealership was aware of problem.
The crankshaft of the engine broke (attorney for consumer). Nlm
Radiator return hose neck disintegrating, pieces inside radiator. Hose likely to seperate from radiator and spew hot .

No summary listed for above vehicle.
Re: exhaust valve springs - car continually stalled. Re: air conditioner - leak behind glove compartment. Re: cracked engine block- discovered when mechanic was looking for air conditioner leak. Fixed crack and remounted engine block without using existing screw because the screw was causing stress to the block.
Repairing cost estimate from dealer will cost close to $1,000. It is outrageous! No defect listed within summary.
Car was not working properly
While traveling approximately 35mph the balance shaft seal blew out. Also, oil light came on & vehicle started to lose fuel. Pulled to side of road. Vehicle was towed to a dealership & the mechanic informed the owner the problem was normal. Manufacturer knows about the balance shaft seal.
Exhaust system noise, replacement of the service bulletin part (gasket) on three occasions has not rectified noise. Mjs
While driving at 25 MPH and without prior warning vehicle shut down,and the dealer could not determine any type of problems.
While driving at 35 MPH the A/C unit started to get hot and then temperature gauge went all the way up, and the vehicle overheated, causing the anti-freeze to leak out of the engine.
The engine block is crack. This causes the engine fluid to leak out. Have taken to dealer for repairs. Was informed would patch cracks but will not repair or replace.
When driving there is a vapor smell of gas within the vehicle, and dealer is aware of the problem.
My 1995 honda accord ex sedan has had an exhaust buzz since the day after I purchased the vehicle brand new from freeland honda. Numerous attempts by the dealer to correct problem have failed. I was told by honda to "live with the problem" because some hondas make this noise and we can't fix it. It is a constant buzz at 1800 RPM's. Now that the vehicle is 4 years old, the "buzz" has grown to a constant vibration which can be felt in the steering wheel and the brake pedal, as well as through the floor and seats.
Wrong pcv valve installed in vehicle which resulted in gasoline fumes to enter vehicle over a long period of time without failure being detected, fumes caused consumer vascular system damage.(attorney for consumer).
