2006 HONDA ACCORD Unknown Or Other Problems

Clicking in steering wheel, and steering wheel very stiff. Not sure if it's the flex coupler or something else. Has been ongoing for probably 2 or 3 years. Also headliner is falling, has been lifting for a couple of years but now it's to the point where I'm afraid it'll fall on my head and block my vision while driving. This is a common issue with these older hondas Headliner needs a recall/warranty extension from the manufacturer. The flex coupler if that is the issue needs a recall or warranty extension as well. Kia has done this for their older specific vehicles with this flex coupler issue (my other car which had the same problem)

I BOUGHT A USED VEHICLE FROM ALOHA MOTOR GROUPS INC. ON FEB. 28, 2020. I WAS NEVER TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SALVAGED. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE SENDING MY TITLE AND EVERYTHING OUT. I HADN'T RECEIVED ANYTHING AS OF AUGUST 28, 2020, SO I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY PULLED OUT MY TITLE, ATTACHED TO SOMEONE ELSE'S PAPERWORK, AND REALIZED THAT THE SALVAGE INSPECTION WAS NEVER CLEARED. SO, NOW I AM STUCK WITH THEM NOT HAVING ANY EXPLANATION OR MEANS OF FIXING THIS ISSUE. THEY ARE DENYING THEIR INVOLVEMENT AND ARE REFUSING TO HAVE A NEW MARYLAND SAFETY INSPECTION DONE AFTER THE SALVAGE INSPECTION IS COMPLETED EVEN THOUGH THEY FAILED TO PROVIDE A PROPER INSPECTION AND TITLE FOR OVER 6 MONTHS.

CONTACTED HONDA NORTH AMERICA & LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH NC TO FIX SRS SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM ON HONDA ACCORD. THEY SAID I HAVE TO PAY $138.00 DIAGNOSTIC FEE AND $475.00 FOR A PART THAT IS IN THE STEERING WHEEL CONNECTED TO THE AIR BAG SYSTEM. VEHICLE WAS ALREADY SERVICED BY LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH AND THE RED LIGHT CAME BACK ON WHILE DRIVING OUT OF LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH PARKING LOT. WHAT IS EVEN WORSE IS THAT THE 2006 HONDA ACCORD WAS BEING SERVICED TODAY 02/07/2020 AT THE LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH DEALERSHIP FOR AN AIRBAG RECALL. PLEASE FORCE THEM TO DO THE RIGHT THING AND FIX THE WHOLE SYSTEM NOT JUST RANDOM PARTS. THEY KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS & THEN TRIED TO CHARGE MY WIFE ANOTHER DIAGNOSTIC FEE TO MAKE EXTRA MONEY (VERY DISHONEST). WHEN I CALLED HONDA NORTH AMERICA THEY JUST SAID IT WAS BETWEEN MYSELF & LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN BOTH HONDA NORTH AMERICA & ESPECIALLY LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH FOR TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF A FEMALE. THIS IS A RIDICULOUS SITUATION AND A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE KNOW WAY TO KNOW IF MY AIRBAG WILL FUNCTION IN AN EMERGENCY. BOTH LEITH HONDA OF RALEIGH AND HONDA NORTH AMERICA NEED TO HELP PEOPLE. NOT EVERYONE CAN SPEND $600.00 ON A CAR THAT IS WORTH ONLY ABOUT $1,00.00 THEY DID THE MINIMUM REQUIRED WORK OF THE AIRBAG RECALL AND LET HER GO-LIKE IF THEY DON'T TALK ABOUT THE SRS PROBLEM IT WILL JUST GO AWAY. HOW DO THEY SLEEP AT NIGHT.

SUN ROOF WINDOW SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY AT ABOUT 65MPH. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF AN OBJECT STRIKING OR HITTING IT, JUST A POP AND A SUDDEN RUSH OF AIR THAT INCREASED AS THE OPENING IN THE SHATTERED SAFETY GLASS GREW LARGER. LUCKLY THE INSIDE COVER WAS CLOSED, SO THAT THE GLASS SHARDS DID NOT DROP ONTO ME WHILE DRIVING DURING THE MORNING COMMUTE ON A BUSY FREEWAY. I WAS VERY SURPRISED THAT THE WINDOW DID NOT HAVE ANY LAMINATION ON IT TO KEEP IT FROM FALLING INTO SHARDS. THE WEATHER WAS RAINING AND ABOUT 45 DEGREES F, BUT I DID NOT HIT A POT HOLE OR HEAR/SEE ANY DEBRIS HIT THE CAR. I HAVE HAD NO PREVIOUS ISSUES WITH THIS WINDOW. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WERE NO SAFETY RECALLS INVOLVING THIS WINDOW AND THAT THEY WOULD NOT COVER ANYTHING RELATED TO THIS OVER 3 YEARS OLD. THE COST TO REPAIR WAS QUOTED AT $468. THE CAR WAS HAIL DAMAGED TWO YEARS AGO, BUT I BELIEVE IT HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THIS EVENT SINCE TEMPERED GLASS JUST COMPLETELY SHATTERS IF DAMAGED.

I CHECKED RECALLS ON THE AIRBAGRECALL.COM WEBSITE AND DID NOT FIND A RECALL ON MY AIRBAG BUT FOUND ANOTHER RECALL INSTEAD. I DID NOT RECEIVE THE RECALL NOTICE BUT AFTER READING THE DESCRIPTION I PAID FOR THIS OUT OF POCKET. I DON'T KNOW HOW THE NOTICE WAS SENT BUT I DID NOT GET IT. I AM NOT SURE IF ONLY ONE NOTICE WAS ISSUED OR IF A FOLLOW-UP NOTICE WAS SENT BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE EITHER. I NEED TO REIMBURSED. I HAVE MY RECEIPT WHERE I PAID FOR THE REPAIR.

THIS IS THE THIRD DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR ON THIS CAR THAT HAS FAILED. I KNOW THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION AGAINST HONDA FOR LATER MODEL YEAR ACTUATORS BUT IT DID NOT ENCOMPASS 2006. THE SAFETY PROBLEM IS THAT IF A PERSON WANTED TO GET OUT OF THE LOCKED CAR IN A HURRY THE ELECTRICAL LOCK AND UNLOCK BUTTON WOULDN'T UNLOCK THE CAR. THE FIRST FAILURE OCCURRED TO THE LEFT REAR DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY, THEN IN 2009 THE RIGHT REAR FAILED AND NOW IN 2015 THE RIGHT FRONT FAILED. I THINK BECAUSE OF THE FREQUENCY OF FAILURE THERE IS A DESIGN PROBLEM POSSIBLY AN EXTENSION OF THE DESIGN PROBLEMS THAT LEAD TO THE LATER MODEL CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT FOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILURES.

BASICALLY, MY 2006 HONDA ACCORD EX 4-DOOR SEDAN BEGAN TO SMOKE AND COMBUSTED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY AS I WAS TAKING IT TO THE MECHANIC. HERE'S THE STORY. MY CAR WAS PARKED IN A FRIEND'S GARAGE THAT WAS LOCATED IN GAINESVILLE, FL WHERE I NOTICED THAT TWO LIGHTS APPEARED FOR THE FIRST TIME. ONE LIGHT WAS AN EMISSIONS MALFUNCTION LIGHT AND THE OTHER WAS A VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST CONTROL LIGHT. THIS IS AFTER I HAD MY CAR FULLY SERVICED FOR THE USUAL 30,000 MILE SERVICE. ANYWAYS, I WAS TAKING THE CAR TO THE MECHANIC SINCE I FIGURED THOSE LIGHTS WERE SOMEWHAT CONCERNING. I FIGURED THE EMISSIONS LIGHT NEEDED TO BE LOOKED AT. I DROVE MAYBE A MAXIMUM OF THREE TO FOUR MILES WHEN I NOTICED SMOKE UNDER THE HOOD OF THE CAR. THERE WAS A FIRE STARTING AND SURELY ENOUGH IT STARTED TO COMBUST ABOUT 10 TO 15 SECONDS LATER. MY BRAKES ALSO SEEMED TO GIVE OUT AT THE SAME TIME SO I SWERVED INTO A PARKING LOT TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN AND PROCEEDED TO GET OUT OF IT WITH ALL MY POSSESSIONS STILL INSIDE. AS I WATCHED IN DISMAY AS MY CAR WAS ON FIRE, I WAS WONDERING WHAT COME NEXT. I HAD TO DEAL WITH ALL THE PROPER AUTHORITIES, AND SUBSEQUENTLY BECAME VERY ILL THE NEXT DAY. I HAD SUFFERED FROM A DECENT AMOUNT OF STRESS AND TRAUMA SINCE BUT I FEEL QUITE BETTER NOW. THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THIS TO HAPPEN BECAUSE MY CAR SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN GOOD ORDER AND HAS BEEN IN GREAT CONDITION FOR THE PAST FOUR YEARS. THE CAR IS TOTALLY DESTROYED AND THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAS TAKEN CARE OF IT. I HAVEN'T MADE ANY FORMAL COMPLAINTS TO NEWSPAPERS, WEBSITES, OR ANYTHING. THIS SEEMS TO BE A GOOD PLACE TO VOICE MY CONCERNS AS TO WHAT HAPPENED AND SUCH.

FOR THE LIGHTS TO GO OUT I MUST TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON FOR THE LIGHTS TO GO OUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED LIKE THREE OR 4 TIMES BEFORE WITH MY CAR. SAME PROBLEM ALL TIMES. MARTIN MAIN LINE HONDA DEALERSHIP # 207980 IN ARDMORE PA 19003-2385 CANNOT FIND / PULL ANY RELEVANT CODES FROM THE COMPUTER IN THE CAR. THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND ANYTHING PHYSICALLY WRONG WITH MY CAR FROM THE LIGHTS OR WHY THEY CAM AND KEEP COMING ON. I DID SHOW THE DEALERSHIP PHOTOS I TOOK OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WITH THE LIGHTS ON. THE DEALERSHIP HAS SEARCHED THE HONDA SERVICE TECH WEBSITE FOR ANY INFORMATION ON THIS PROBLEM AND FOUND NOTHING FROM HONDA. THE REGIONAL HONDA SERVICE REP WAS ASKED ABOUT THIS ON GOING PROBLEM AND HE SAID THAT HE COULD NOT DO ANYMORE THEN WHAT THE DEALERSHIP CAN DO ON THERE OWN. I NEED HONDA TO FIX THIS MAJOR PROBLEM.

AN UNKNOWN ROAD DEBRIS (SMALL PEBBLE) STRUCK THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE (REGULAR EVENT), CAUSING AC UNIT TO FAIL. THE DEALER FOUND THAT A PEBBLE PUNCTURED A HOLE IN AC CONDENSER. THIS IS BRAND NEW CAR. REPAIR COST $700 AND IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. IN FACT, AC CONDENSER IS EXPOSED TO INCOMING FLOW AND IS NOT PROTECTED. APPARENTLY THE CONDENSER IS ALSO VERY FRAGILE. HONDA SAID THAT IT IS NORMAL. I THINK IT IS NOT. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED, AT LEAST BY PROVIDING FREE REPAIR OF THIS UNDUE DAMAGE. *JB
