While driving ball joint broke and vehicle narrowly avoided a collision.*ak consumer discoverd there was a recall, 99v069, on the lower ball joint and requested reimbursment, however the request was denied, consumer was informed that the vehicle identification number did not apply to vehicle.
Consumer stated that the cassette player failed and was replaced.
While traveling there was a noise coming from the front end of vehicle, consumer had vehicle serviced, technician noticed wheel bearing needed to be replaced. *ak consumer stated that three out of the four wheel bearings were damaged.
Consumer states that the vehicle produces a loud rattle after going over small potholes, consumer states the ride is very harsh and rough.
Rear end link is broken where it attaches to the rear sway bar. Appears that the weld on the end link did not hold.
There is no adjustment for the right rear camber. The car therefore has never been in proper alignment. The result is that I have had premature wear on my tires. I went to have my front end aligned when the dealer informed me of the problem. I feel honda should be responsible for replacing the parts that would put the car in proper alignment. The car has never been in an accident and shows no signs of impact.
While making a u turn ball joint separated from vehicle. It just happened like mentioned in recall 99v069000, ball joint can prematurely wear out and separate.

I brought the car to two different dealerships for them to fix the rattling noise from the windows.
