I was in the driver seat of my 2007 Honda accord with a passenger in the right side front seat. I was traveling in the left lane on a highway (476 southbound in pennsylvania, approximate mile marker 21) at 5:30 am with no cars to my immediate front, side or rear. With no provocation, all of the right side airbags went off, causing damage to the right ear of my passenger as well as myself. There was no impact whatsoever, as well as no potholes or road damage at all. The insurance adjuster as well as the collision center (vinart collision, associated with lehigh valley Honda) both found no impact and no external reason why the airbags would deploy. If there had been another vehicle on the road near me, this could have very easily caused an accident and possibly more severe injuries. I

My issue relates to the power steering system. This is something that developed over time, worsened, I paid boatloads of money over time, only to have it reoccur over & over. I've actually experienced other issues but since this is a safety issue, and I've paid good money to have repaired on a few occasions, only to be back at square one today barely able to steer the car I've decided to stick to this alone. This issue is probably as much an issue with defective power steering as it is with Honda not addressing my problem. In other words since from around 50,000 thru today this has been an ongoing problem which they only suggested to do one service, the problem temp would go away, only to reappear shortly thereafter dragging me back in all over again. High-pressure hose @ $58,000, almost I

On december 4, 2017 I was traveling the posted speed limit on interstate 195 maryland when my tire broke away from the axle. I lost control of the car and skid across the highway and slammbed into a guard rail. I had just repaired/replaced both lower control arm bushings on that same wheel not two weeks prior to the accident with alignment and new brakes all around. I was fortunate that I did not hit anyone and no one hit me or the result would have been much worse. The car was totaled.

Vehicle: 2007 Honda accord ex - 6 cylinder problem: transmission failure with less then 5k miles, my accord began to surge when driving. A service light came on and I took the vehicle to the dealership.

The vehicle now has 17k miles and I still have problems with the transmission. When slowing for a red light the vehicle will down shift suddenly causing the vehicle to lurch.

12/29/2009 32,642 mi ODI #10297388.0

I'd like to report an issue with my 07 Honda accord brakes with 32,642 miles. After a few miles of freeway driving (no stop and go) all 4 rotors are very hot. Any rotor is too hot to touch, and in fact, would blister your finger. They are so hot that they sometimes smell of burnt brake material. These brake rotors are excessively hot without virtually any usage of the brakes. This is not a normal condition for any car. I do not use my brakes excessively, drive almost exclusively freeways, and got over 100,000 mile on my previous Honda's rear brakes. I took my car to the local Honda dealer for service under warranty. When I pulled in to the service area the service person came right out. I asked him to verify that the rotors were extremely hot. He did so. The reason I had asked the serv

I took the battery out of an 2007 Honda accord v-6 to get access to the headlight bulb behind the battery. I put the battery back into the car and installed the positive terminal then touched the negative terminal to the negative post on the battery and the car engine started without the key being turned on. If I would have had my hands in the wrong area in the engine compartment I would not be typing this e-mail. No one was in the car with the key turned on, the car started by itself and would not shut off when I turned the key to on or off, I had to get into the car and put it into gear and then back to park to get the key to shut the engine off. *tr
