I was involved in a car accident on 12/12/2. The air bags didn't deploy. They definitely should have. I have pictures of the outside of the vehicle. I can receive police report the insurance currently has the vehicle. We were traveling 70mph and was tboned then ended up sliding out of control and hitting the ground after a 4ft drop off a drainage ditch. Two points of impact the car is totaled and not one airbag deployed.

MY 2013 ACCORD SPORT SUDDENLY VEERED LEFT ON IT'S OWN AND I HIT A TELEPHONE POLE BREAKING IT IN HALF. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS AND I AM INJURED. I WAS DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

ON 11-28-2019@ APPROXIMATELY 1835 HRS. MY HONDA ACCORD LX-AUTOMATIC WAS INVOLVED IN A MULTIPLE CAR ACCIDENT INVOLVING 5 CARS. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOYED WHEN THE CAR WAS HIT FROM THE REAR AND PUSHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT. 2 IMPACTS WERE FELT FROM BEHIND FROM. AT THIS TIME THE CAR IS DISABLED AND I AM AWAITING FOR ESURANCE TO EVALUATE MY LOSS. I AM VERY CONCERN THAT THIS COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY BEEN A DEADLY SITUATION FOR MYSELF AS WELL AS THE OCCUPANTS OF THE CAR. I WAS ON THE LEFT LANE TRAVELING WESTBOUND WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS AND THE CAR FROM BEHIND PUSHED MY CAR INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE SPEED LIMIT ON THE LIE 495 WESTBOUND IS 50 MPH.

Mileage: 72,500

TAKATA RECALL. NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED. ADDITIONALLY, VTC ACTUATOR. HONDA HAS REPAIRED ACCORD'S FROM 2008-2012 BUT NOT 2013-2016 WHICH HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. VARIOUS FORUMS AND MY OWN VEHICLE HAS THE ISSUE. I HAVE VIDEOS AND SOUND TO PROVE THE SAME ISSUE THAT HONDA IS REPAIRING ON ACCORD'S FROM 2008-2012 ON THE SERVICE BULLETIN. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. WHEN TURNING ON THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE STARTS WITH A LOUD START-UP AND SOMETIMES WHEN THE WEATHER IS REALLY COLD, THE ENGINE WON'T START. HONDA DOES HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT FOR OLDER CARS.

Mileage: 70,000

MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG TURNED ON AND HAS BEEN ON EVER SINCE ALSO WHEN I PRESS ON MY BREAKS THE THE LOCKS ON THE DOORS MAKE A CLICKING NOISE

Mileage: 112,480

"TAKATA RECALL". (LONG TERM EXPOSURE TO HIGH HEAT AND HUMIDITY CAN CAUSE THESE AIRBAGS TO EXPLODE WHEN DEPLOYED) MY HORN LOCATED IN THE STEERING WHEEL CONSTANTLY BLARES WHEN EXPOSED TO HIGH HEAT WHILE IN MOTION ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS AND STATIONARY. THIS ISSUE COMES AND GOES AND THE DEALERSHIP "HONDA WORLD" LOCATED IN DOWNEY, CA. REFUSES TO INSPECT THE ISSUE. THEY TELL ME THE PROBELM NEEDS TO OCCUR FOR THEM TO INSPECT THE ISSUE. SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN 05/2016 THIS ISSUE ONLY OCCURES IN THE SUMMER TIME NOT THE WINTER WHICH TELLS ME IT'S BEING CAUSED BY HEAT. BECAUSE THE AIRBAG IS ALSO LOCATED IN THE STEERING WHEEL THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE INSPECTED ASAP. I HAVE VIDEOS ON MY CELL PHONE CAMERA AS PROOF.

Mileage: 63,000

2 ITEMS- WAS THERE AN AIR BAG RECALL? & STARTER PUSH BUTTON MALFUNCTION, IT DOESN'T START AT TIMES WHEN PUSHED, IT'S GETTING WORST, I'M UP TO OVER FIVE TRYS AND NOW IT FEELS LIKE I'D BE STUCK AT ANY LOCATION. IT STARTED ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO. SOMEONE ON YOUTUBE CLAIMED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE 2013 ACCORD PUSH BUTTON STARTER.

Mileage: 50,000

MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON IN MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD AND I'M NOT SURE IF THIS HAS ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE TAKATA RECALL. MY CAR WAS JUST SITTING IN THE DRIVE WAY THE NEXT MORNING I CAME OUT AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT WAS ON AND WON'T GO AWAY NOW.

TAKATA RECALL I OWN TWO HONDA ACCORDS, A 2010 HONDA ACCORD (VIN [XXX]) AND A 2013 HONDA ACCORD VIN [XXX]). BOTH ACCORDS HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED IN THE TAKATA BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS AS NEEDING AIR BAG REPLACEMENTS. I FINALLY RECEIVED THE OFFICIAL HONDA RECALL FOR THE 2010 HONDA ACCORD PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG THIS PAST FRIDAY, 2/23/18. I HAVE STILL NOT RECEIVED ANY RECALL TO FIX THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD AIR BAG(S). I CALLED THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED BOTH CARS NEW AND WAS TOLD THERE WOULD BE A RECALL "AT SOME FUTURE POINT" FOR THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD, BUT THE SERVICE ADVISOR I SPOKE TO COULD NOT BE MORE SPECIFIC THAN THAT. IN DECEMBER, 2017 THERE WERE NO AIRBAG RECALLS FOR EITHER HONDA ACCORD ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. I JUST CHECKED AGAIN FOR AN AIRBAG RECALL ON THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD AND NOTHING FOR AIRBAGS. THE RECALL FOR THE 2010 HONDA ACCORD SPECIFICALLY STATES: "HONDA SUGGESTS THAT YOU AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL HAS BEEN PERFORMED." OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS PRETTY DANGEROUS STUFF. I HAVE RECEIVED NO ADVISORIES AND NO SAFETY ADVICE OR PRECAUTIONS FROM HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION / AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR COMPANY REGARDING FRONT PASSENGERS OR STEPS TO TAKE TO AVOID INJURY IN CASE OF AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT IN THE MEANTIME (OR UNTIL SUCH TIME AS A RECALL IS OFFICIALLY ORDERED). IF THESE TAKAKA AIRBAGS ARE A KNOWN DANGEROUS ISSUE FOR OVER TWO YEARS NOW AND THESE AIRBAGS CAN KILL OR INJURE PASSENGERS, AND MY 2010 HONDA JUST RECEIVED IT'S RECALL NOW, IN FEBRUARY, 2018 - WHEN CAN I EXPECT TO SEE THE RECALL ON MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD? 2021?I CANNOT SELL OR TRADE MY 2013 BECAUSE OF THIS KNOWN AIRBAG PROBLEM, OTHER DEALERS WILL NOT TOUCH THIS CAR. PLEASE TAKE ACTION TO FORCE HONDA TO ADVISE OWNERS TO GIVE A PROJECTED DATE FOR A RECALL AND WHAT TO DO UNTIL SUCH TIME AS A RECALL IS ORDERED / AVAILABLE. THANK-YOU INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

ON FRI SEPT 29TH, 2017 I HAD AN SUA (SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION) IN MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD THAT DEVASTATED PART OF AN OFFICE BUILDING AND WRECKED MY CAR. I WAS IN AN OFFICE PARK PARKING LOT AND BACKED UP, HIT A 3 FOOT HIGH CONCRETE BOLLARD, WAS ANNOYED, PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, FELT AN ODD LURCH AS THOUGH THE BUMPER WAS STUCK ON SOMETHING ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOT. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND AT THAT MOMENT THE CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED TO WHAT FELT LIKE 30 OR 40 MILES AN HOUR. I TRIED TO BRAKE BUT IT FELT AS THOUGH THERE WAS NO PRESSURE UNDER MY FOOT. I GRIPPED THE STEERING WHEEL IN TERROR AND STEERED THE CAR AWAY FROM OTHER PARKED CARS AND INTO A CONCRETE WHEELCHAIR RAMP WITH RAILS AND AN OFFICE BUILDING. THE AIR BAG WENT OFF. THE CONCRETE RAMP AND OFFICE BUILDING STOPPED THE CAR IN ITS TRACKS. I PUT IT IN PARK AND GOT OUT. I'M DOING OK BUT MOSTLY VERY VERY GRATEFUL I DIDN'T HURT OR KILL ANYONE. MINOR AIRBAG BURN ON MY ARM AND A CONTUSION TO MY KNEE. I FEEL THE AIRBAG ONLY CAME OUT A LITTLE AND HIT MY LEFT ARM, NOT THE REST OF MY BODY. BUT I COULD BE WRONG ABOUT THAT. I'M GLAD BECAUSE AS A PHYSICAL THERAPIST I'VE SEEN SOME NASTY AIR BAG INJURIES. ALSO I DID NOT HAVE MY SEAT BELT ON BECAUSE I OFTEN PUT IT ON AS I LEAVE A PARKING LOT. NOT A GOOD IDEA, BUT ALSO NO NASTY SEAT BELT INJURY. JUST STIFF ARMS, PAINFUL LEFT KNEE AND NECK, A FEW DAYS LATER. I REALIZE EVERYONE IS GOING TO SAY I HAD THE FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT I WAS AT A DEAD STOP WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE TO ACCELERATE AND SERIOUSLY, AFTER ALMOST 40 YEARS OF DRIVING, I HAVE NEVER FELT ANYTHING LIKE THIS TERROR AND LOSS OF CONTROL. THE POLICEMAN WHO CAME TO THE SCENE WOULD TESTIFY TO THE FACT THAT I WAS COMPLETELY SANE AND SOBER AT THE TIME. TODAY, WE HEARD THE CAR WILL BE APPRAISED AS TOTALED. GOOD NEWS MEANING IT WILL NO LONGER BE DRIVEN.

I CONTACTED POHANKA HONDA IN SALISBURY MARYLAND ABOUT THE DANGER OF THE AIR BAG EXPLODING AND CAUSING INJURY TO ME OR MY FAMILY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL BUT IT WAS REGIONAL AND THIS AREA AND MY VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THEY REFERRED ME TO HONDA OF NORTH AMERICA AND I WAS TOLD THAT IF I WANTED TO CHECK OUT MY AIRBAG I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE INSPECTION. I DISAGREE BECAUSE THIS REGION BECOMES HOT AND THE CONDITIONS CAN BE AS HUMID AS FLORIDA OR OTHER SOUTHERN STATES. IT DOES NOT MAKE ANY SENSE. I DO NOT THINK I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE INSPECTION OR PUT MY FAMILY IN DANGER. *TR

I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW WITH VERY LOW MILEAGE (MAYBE 200 MILES). FROM THE TIME I BOUGHT IT OR VERY SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, THE RED AIR BAG LIGHT WAS LIT ON THE DASHBOARD. I THOUGHT IT WAS NORMAL BECAUSE IT WAS A BRAND NEW CAR. THEN I STARTED FOCUSING ON IT AND NOTICED THAT SOMETIMES IT WASN'T ON BUT MOST OF THE TIME IT WAS. I INQUIRED ABOUT IT WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR THE 5,000 MILE OIL CHANGE AND WAS TOLD THERE WAS FAULTY WIRING AND THE AIR BAG UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. *TR

I WAS PARKED IN AN ALLEY BEHIND A COFFEE SHOP. I TURNED THE CAR ON AND PUT MY SEAT BELT ON AND PUT IT IN GEAR. IT SUDDENLY LURCHED FORWARD AND STRUCK A PARKED CAR ONE CAR'S WIDTH FROM ME, RICOCHETED AND HIT ANOTHER PARKED CAR (WHICH THEN HIT THE CAR NEXT TO IT). I COULD NOT STOP THE CAR, THOUGH I TRIED; THEN I PIVOTED AGAIN AND HIT AND TOOK DOWN THE CINDER BLOCK WALL OF A GARAGE. I TURNED THE CAR OFF EITHER RIGHT BEFORE HITTING THE GARAGE WALL OR RIGHT AFTER. NO AIRBAGS WERE EVER RELEASED. IN RETROSPECT, AFTER THE SHOCK AT ALL THE DAMAGE, I BELIEVE SOMETHING WAS DEFECTIVE ABOUT MY NEW HONDA ACCORD.

Mileage: 2,100

AS A RESULT OF MY CAR HAVING TO BRAKE SO HARD AND SUDDEN TO STOP A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT THE AIRBAGS EXPLODED ALSO BRAKING THE SEAT BELTS WITHOUT THERE BEING AN ACTUAL IMPACT. THE POLICE ARRIVED, BOTH THE SHERIFF AN A LOCAL OFFICER. THEY TESTIFIED AS THERE BEING NO IMPACT AND THAT IT WAS A FACTORY MISTAKE AND SAID AN ACCIDENT REPORT WAS USELESS ALSO TO CALL HONDA AND STATE OUR PROBLEM. WE DID SO AND HONDA REFUSED TO PAY FOR THE DAMAGES. WHEN THE INSURANCE GOT INVOLVED THEY SAID IT WAS NOT A ACCIDENT AND REFUSED TO PAY. I UNDERSTAND IS DIFFICULT FOR HONDA TO ACCEPT AN ERROR IN ONE OF THEIR VEHICLES; BUT IT ALSO HAS TO BE UNDERSTOOD THAT I SHOULDN'T PAY FOR AN ERROR THAT I DIDN'T COMMIT. I HOPE YOU GUYS CAN HELP. *TR

AFTER HEARING A NOISE COMING FROM THE STEERING WHEEL (SUCH AS A CLICKING NOISE OR SQUEAKING), TURNING IT LEFT AND/OR RIGHT, I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP ON 08/20/2013. THE DEALERSHIP REMOVED THE STEERING WHEEL AND DETERMINED THAT THE CABLE REEL FOR THE AIR BAG WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT RETURN THE VEHICLE TO ME FOR "SAFETY" UNTIL THE PART WAS TO BE REPLACED (AND THE STEERING CONSOLE HAD BEEN DISASSEMBLED). THE DEALER REPLACED THE CABLE REEL ON THE CAR. 2 MONTHS AFTER THE REPAIR, I STARTED HEARING THE SAME NOISE TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL LEFT/RIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER ON 12/26/2013 WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. THE DEALER INSPECTION DETERMINED THAT THE CABLE REEL NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AGAIN (5,484 MILES). THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THEY WOULD NOT DISASSEMBLE THE STEERING CONSOLE, THEY WOULD ORDER THE REPLACEMENT PART AND I WOULD HAVE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN AGAIN FOR THE REPLACEMENT WHEN THE PART ARRIVES (THIS IS THE SECOND REPAIR IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS). I ASKED THE DEALERSHIP WHY THIS WAS A RECURRING ISSUE? THEY INDICATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED THEM WITH THE PART AND THEY ARE REPLACING IT ACCORDING TO THE MANUFACTURER'S INSTRUCTIONS. IF THE ISSUE HAPPENS FOR A THIRD TIME, THEY WILL REPORT THIS TO AMERICAN HONDA FOR POSSIBLE ENGINEERING ISSUE AND RECALL. *TR
