The contact owns a 1995 Honda Accord. When shifting, the vehicle bangs into gear and the transmission jumps and makes a loud noise. He took the vehicle to a meineke dealer and they diagnosed that the muffler and catalytic converter needed to be replaced, and the rims were bent. The underbody of the vehicle has an inch and a half gap, in which the inside of the vehicle can be seen. He took the vehicle to Honda and they stated that the transmission, rear brakes, rotors, motor mount, and air bags needed to be replaced. In addition, the rims were bent. The speed and powertrain were unknown. The current mileage was 91,027 and failure mileage was 90,806.
Brakes failed but engine revved up. Harder I pushed the brakes, the car increased speed. On most occasions, I was able to coast to a stop or use the emergency brake. In this instance, the emergency brake did not hold and crash occurred. Dealer could not find problem when informed of braking issue. It was an intermittent issue but very scary.
Power window keeps running off the track. It needs a new rotator on all four windows. ABS modulator has a leak in it. I am interested in a class action, less they want to fix my car. I don't think that it is fair that we put so much money into these cars with the tune-ups, and they still break down
