1999 Honda Accord: headlights failing or too dim

Filed Nov 15, 2016 · Electrical, Lights · GA

Takata recall I had problems with getting the key to turn in the ignition. It eventually failed. I was informed by a professional that it was the key. I had the key replaced. Honda tried to charge me for the key knowing that there was a recall. Too, my headlights have always been very dimmed. I have bought several replacements. They still appear very dim.

I have a 1999 honda accord and I jus paid to get front headlight wire replaced because I could not use low beam lights only high beam. Light is working now but there is a suspension and/or electrical problem I need to check. The heat/air doesnot come on? Is this car safe to drive?

Over the last week I have been experiencing the car suddenly turning off....no RPM's, no speed...while I am still in drive (automatic transmission). In viewing various websites, this is now becoming a common occurrence...and it extremely dangerous. Although headlights still work, power steering is no longer available...so I must hurriedly shift into n to glide to the side of the road. The car does not restart right away. This has occurred at intersections, on the highway (at 70 MPH) and while going 20 MPH. There was a recall issued on the ignition for this type of problem in/around 2002-2003. I received this late...but did go to the dealer and have it replaced in 2009 (honda recall #02v120000). After experiencing this problem recently, I have gone online to see countless numbers of other honda accord owners who have been experiencing exactly the same problems....even after having the recall filled. Evidently, the replacement part has been failing...or it was not the fix to begin with. This has was a very popular model..and there are sure to be hundreds of thousands of these on the road...about to run into something when the power fails. I am going to the dealership to get this resolved...but it is incumbent upon your organization to have this issue reviewed..and a solution available...asap. Please look into this....I have never experienced such a frightening problem while driving. Thank you.

All dash lights go out on my 1999 honda accord when the headlights are turned on. A safety recall was done for this problem caused by a defected multiplex control unit on the honda accord years 2000 to 2004. Why are older accords not covered under this recall since the same defective part was installed on them?

The contact stated that the plastic covering over the headlight was shaded with a yellow film over it, which caused the left headlight to appear dim. The vehicle had not been taken to the dealer.

My 1999 honda accord's low-beam headlights quit working without notice. I will be driving and then they will just turn off. I have checked the bulbs, and the bulbs are still new. I have bought many sets of bulbs, and the problem persists. I have heard of similar problems japaneese made accords, and american civics. My accord was manufactured in japan.

Vehicle involved in collision, resulting in damage to the fender, tire, and the head lamp. However, the airbag deployed on the passenger side, but the driver's side airbag experienced no deployment which could have caused possible injuries, due to no deployment.
