Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Passenger side subframe rusted out near steering/suspension components causing my sone to lose control of vehicle and crash. This is a well know defect of this vehicle.
The engine cradle is rooting out from the AC unit is draining on it and it about to brake because of the way Honda did it I hope the recall is made on it
My 2000 Honda Accord EX V6 has a few issues: 1. Front/rear struts, sway bar bushings, and sway bar links. This has caused my car to fail safety tests for the last 5 years. I have received an itemized estimate for these issues from a mechanic. 2. Electrical. The front instrument panel is not working properly. I can not touch any buttons on the dash or the lights on the panel will go off completely. Both of these are a huge safety issue and it is not safe to drive! No lights or warning of any kind regarding these issues!
Car keeps going out of line when steering wheel gets lose after bumbs. Fixed rack n pinon and steering wheel pump 2x already!
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!!
Tl* the contact owns a 2000 honda accord. While the vehicle was at an independent mechanic for routine maintenance, it was found that the front passenger side subframe was severely corroded. The air conditioning condensation line dripped fluid on top of the key suspension component, which caused the failure. The vehicle was deemed unsafe to drive. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted. The dealer was not notified. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was 62,000.
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.
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
Passenger side rear subframe rusted and broke off I heard a clunking sound when I was going down the street on the way to work I turned the corner and heard a loud clunk sound and got under my car and looked and the passenger side rear subframe is broke off
