Three problems related to radiator have been reported for the 1999 Honda Accord. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Oil is pouring out the bottom of my car. Oil also filled the radiator overflow. The problem is a porous engine casting. This can cause the car to sieza as it loses oil quite rapidly. It cannot be driven. There are many reported cases of this online, but Honda is taking no responsibility. A new engine is required. While this is an older car in years, the mileage is low for a Honda of its age and for any Honda for that matter and a probelm that requires an entire new engine is unacceptable. I contacted Honda and they will do nothing.
On the way back to home, suddenly there was burst sound, when I checked, the radiator tube had burst. I took it to the nearest mechanic, then he said, there was problem with radiator and he fixed the radiator. It worked well for a week and then started leaking of coolant. I took it again to the mechanic, then he said it may be a problem with head gasket or may be we have to replace the whole head. If it is the head gasket it will be 1200 to 1500. If it is the head then you end up spending up to 3000 to 3500. I can't imagine a case if this incident happens when I was on freeway at 70 mph. I have bought the car exactly one year back and I am the second owner of the car. When I checked on the web, there were a quite a few similar cases. God knows only why few cars from Honda get this problem. My friend who is holding a similar car has 40k more miles on it and uses it without spending any money on maintenance.
My Honda1999 barley has 79,000 on it, im second owner. I bought it when it had only 37,000 mil. On it. The car is already having transmission problems. It jerks when driving and coming to a stop, like a pop jerky feel. My cooling system had problem in 2010 oil going into my radiator. And know I have electrical problem. The car at times would go off. 79,000 I cant believe it. You would think this my car was a Ford with their older modules. Known to have engine problems after 70,000. This is crazy. I have all papers from first owner, never realized till reaching the chaos of my engine. That my car as well was a recall. I have the documents.
