1 Sway Bar problem

Failure Date: 06/10/2015

Passenger side subframe rusted to the point of being dangerous to drive. The issue is claimed to be due to water draining from the air conditioner onto the subframe section where the sway bar mounts. The drivers side is fine without rust. The rust is very bad at this point and has broken through. The rest of the subframe away from this area is fine without rust or surface rust which can be brushed off to expose grey metal in good shape. I was told by the mechanic this is a common problem I. E. Rusted subframe under the ac drain hole.

2 Sway Bar problem

Failure Date: 09/17/2006

I purchase a 2000 Honda Accord 4dr. Sedan, s/e new in 2000. On April 18,2005 while having the oil/filter changed at Honda west in las vegas, nv I was informed that a sway bar link was broken. It was replaced by that dealership at a cost of $103. 58 to me. I saw the broken part and it appeared to have broken at the weld on that part. That was the driver side. On sept 17, 2006, I was having the oil/filter changed and was told that the "sway bar link" on the passenger side was broken, I saw that also and it appears to have broken at the weld like the one on the drivers side a year before. At this point I have contacted Honda of America and they say that the recall you show on July 12, 2000, campaign id number 00v184000 does not effect my vehicle. Note I did not get the part that was replaced in las vegas, and I have appointment to have the broke part now replaced by battle creek Honda probably on Wednesday or Thursday this week. I will get the broken part this time.
