The struts on both front and back went bad about 7 years ago. I was driving down the street with my boyfriend at the time, who is a mechanic and heard some thumping and other noises. He looked in under my honda and told me that my struts on both the front and back are bad and need replacing. It's gotten a lot worse, floating over bumps, having a difficult time keeping it under control while turning around any type of corner and if I happen to not see any kind of bump or whole in the road, it sounds as if my car is going to fall apart. I have taken exceptional care of my accord, but can't afford to pay for all new struts!!

The vehicle handling is poor when making sudden turns (avoidance maneuvers). When I spoke to my local dealer, the honda representative indicated there is no safety recall and everything metal rusts in this area (southeast wisconsin). He gave me a number for some honda care center, but after navigating through the automated phone system I found out the center was not open at the time I called...frustrating. Upon examining the underside of the vehicle it is apparent the frame (engine cradle or sub frame) where the stabilizer bar mounts to the frame on the passenger side is totally rusted through, allowing the stabilizer bar to move a great amount only to be held up by the sway bar link pin on the passenger side. My concern is that if the sway bar link pin termination comes loose or breaks, the sway bar will drop and drag on the pavement, possibly catapulting the car.

Right side sub-frame, rear beam, k frame is completely rusted through from A/C drain line installed to drain directly onto the subframe. This causes the steering to flex substantially and according to my mechanic could cause the car steering to fail catastrophically or could allow the motor and transmission to fall out of the car. Anti-sway bar is completely broken away from the frame. Found by mechanic checking my car to determine what was wrong with the steering and cornering.

The passenger side subframe is badly compromised by rust (some holes). Parts of the suspension and steering can be compromised is it fails while driving. The driver side is not badly rusted. Honda has relocated the air conditioning drip tube in later years which might be the cause of the problem
