2 Brake Electric Antilock problem

Failure Date: 06/28/2002

The knocking noise was there since a few months after I bought the car. The dealer said that's normal with new Hondas b/c the gears . Had broken-in, benefit of a doubt. But after that the knocking happened mo re often I became suspicious and asked a friend with a 4cyl '99 Accordlx he said that he never had that problem. Mine was an exv6 top of the line this shouldn't happen. And the last time I brought it to the dealer they heard it at least once but thay said that they can't duplicate it on demand so they can't pinpoint wh at's causing it. This should've been fixed a long time ago by the dealer. Brakes and steering did not work, car froze,causing me to go off the road: repair mech anic said,'timing belt". Maintenance was done 2 mo. Prior at dealer. The dealer service station should have inspected the timing belt. Even so the car should no t freeze b/c of a timing belt- brakes and steering are vital to a vehicles safet y without these airbags and seatbelts are just cushions for accidents waiting to happen. Manufacturers should fix this safety problem to prevent crashes instead of focusing on crash safety. I lost a car but I'm lucky to be alive from this h orrifying ordeal. I want at least reimbursement for the car from either the manu facturer or the dealer.

5 Brake Electric Antilock problem

As I left the airport parking my car all of a sudden went to 60 miles and my brake would not stop the car. It caused me to go through a red light I was afraid to shut it off for fear it would roll on me so I put the car in n the car was still moving and racing like a race car then it slowed and I was able to use the brake, but when I took my foot off the brake the car went right up to 45 I had about 15 miles from home to all the way home it stayed at 45 unless I had my foot on the brakes, this happen at 2:00am.

6 Brake Electric Antilock problem

Failure Date: 08/13/2001

My primary concern is the engine trouble with my 1999 Accord. When I need to accelerate the car "misfires" According to the gresham Honda dealership. This is where the car is being serviced. Contact name and number would be mark cawthorn @ 503-676-7070. I am very hesitant to pull out in traffic at any speed because I never know when my car will misfire. At times the acceleration sticks at both 2-3rpms. Basically, there is no acceleration. The check engine light no longer comes on when the car hesitates. The first two times that the car was taken to the Honda dealership the check light did come on. My car is currently on it's 5th stay with Honda. They(Honda and their technicians) seem to have no idea what the problem was. Hopefully the problem will be resolved easily and most importantly, quickly. I'd hate to be the cause of an accident. Equally as important, I have had a failure with my abs. While there was no accident, I barely stopped at the intersection while brakes locked up on pavement. I have had passengers in my vehicle on such occasions and each would be willing to give tesimonies to such failures as listed above. In fact, the Honda technician has also experienced the "misfire" first hand in my Accord. I may be a little difficult to reach with college and two jobs but please feel free to leave messages at either phone number. Thank you for your time, amber weimerskirch. (tiresize: w-10).
