Five problems related to speed control linkage have been reported for the 1996 Honda Accord. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
My 96 Honda Accord is not responding properly when treveling at low speeds and are required to move the accelerator pedal to make speed adjustments. A recall information from NHTSA web site(NHTSA campaign number:99i002000) indicates that the dealers will replace the throttle cable. However, both american Honda automoble and philadelphia Honda dealer told me that my 96 Honda Accord is not affected. What should I do? is NHTSA giving wrong information or Honda is?.
Consumer put vehicle in gear, and with feet still on brakes, vehicle suddenly accelerated at a high speed, causing an accident.
While backing out vehicle started to accelerate. Then, vehicle started to drive backwards and stopped when hitting side of a house. Contacted dealer.
Consumer was driving, applied the brake and car accelerated out of control.
When driving at 20 and 30mph vehicle loses power, and excessive pressure has to be applied to the gas pedal. Dealer had to adjust the fuel throttle linkage, but problem still exists.
