Seat belt will not reset the light is on constantly the wind shield wipers control the water will never pump the water out however the pump is good. The radio works however you can not see the panel and lights, that includes the air conditional and heater lights. The pain on all of my honda's are coming off or fading with a white color and spots all over.

My car got into a minor accident a neighborhood. The airbag on the passenger seat came out. Everyone including the police thought it was odd because there wasn't anyone sitting on the passenger seat. The driver's side on the other hand, the airbag did not come out. And the airbag light is off even though the passenger airbag came off. I have a question as to why that is? Also my seat belt became too tight and does not allow me room to moves.

I have a 2004 honda accord ex that I purchased new in may of 2004. On 10/23/2011 I opened the hood to check the oil. I walked away to get a rag and the hood slammed shut while I was looking the other direction. I reopened the hood and watched to see what was hapenning. 18 seconds after the hood is opened, the hood falls about 5" slowly and then free falls the rest of the way. I called and talked to the service manager of my local honda dealer to see if honda was willing to correct the problem. He informed me that they would not replace the 2 shocks that hold the hood up for free because the car wasn't under warranty anymore. As far as I am concerned, what ever they use to hold the hood up on the vehicles that they produce should never fail. If I would have had my head under the hood checking the oil, I could have had a very serious blow to the head. I faxed a letter to the honda corporate office on tuesday 10/25/2011 and a woman named maribel called me on the phone to discuss the problem (even though I didn't give them my phone number in the letter that I sent them because I wanted a response in writing), she pretty much told me the same thing. The car isn't under warranty any more, so it is on me to replace the bad shocks that hold the hood up. Once the hood of a vehicle is raised and seems to be secure, nobody would ever expect to have the hood freefall on them while checking fluid levels or any other thing that they would be under there inspecting. It seems to be of the opinion of honda that this is just something that has to be replaced in time. I think they are very wrong. These shocks never gave me any warning that they were getting weak and were going to need to be replaced until the hood actually slammed shut.

I was in a parking garage and pulling into a parking spot. I was within 2 feet of the concrete wall and foot over break when my car accelerated with enough force to deploy the airbag and push the frame into the radiator. It happened so fast, I tried to brake but it was over within seconds. I could not have been going more than 2mph or less as I did not even have foot on gas.

My daughter was driving my 2004 honda accord and was traveling at about 30 MPH. She had my 12 yr old in the passenger seat and got too close to the edge of a road that didn't have a shoulder. It pulled the tires off and she overcompensated swerving back onto the road. There was another car coming so she swerved back towards the ditch and hit a power pole head on. The airbag on drivers side deployed but slowly and with very little force at all. My daughter described it as falling out and barely inflating. However, the other daughter's airbag shot out hard and fast and caused her to break a bone in her rt dominant hand. She had to have surgery on that knuckle/finger using three pins. They had to eventually go back and do surgery to remove them since they buried under the skin. I was completely unaware that there was a recall on the airbags since I wasn't the original owner of the car.

This is a really appalling situation regarding our honda. The paint started peeling for no apparent reason and not it looks like a car with leprosy... I have already replaced the transmission to the tune of $3,500.00 with no help from honda after selling my 2001 ford f-150 and now they say they don't have any paint problems. I beg to differ. The quote I have to have it re-painted is $2,500.00. If honda cares this little about their customer's experience, I will never own another one of these pieces of [xxx]...
