Lost control of my car my brakes either locked up or went out and steering wheel was hard to turn & it caused me to hydroplane and none of my airbags deployed.

I was driving down through someones yard and its like my vehicle made a grinding sound and a malfunction light illuminated an exclamation point in a triangle. I almost got stuck and I was horrified at the sound. Later on I started noticing it was harder to control thw vehicle at higher speeds on the road. Especially after it rained I would leave my yard and would almost be trapped in my yard. Very eerie grinding sound with 3 malfunction lights abs, traction control, and brake lamp illuminated.

Power steering leaking under the hood.

The power steering hose was replaced by dealer under earlier recall. It is now leaking and causing noxious fumes in the car. I called the dealer. Service person told me that because it was serviced under the recall, my car was no longer subject to the recall and I would have to pay to get it fixed. This does not seem right to me.

2005 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regard to safety recall for power steering.

Looking for forms relating to possible power steering recall on 20045 Honda Accord-very hard to turn out of a driveway-almost feels as if driving a manual car.

The line for power steering began leaking and caught fire and I had to replace the line at my expense. I could not get help from the dealer at that time. I have my receipt for the line that was about$149. 00 to replace.

Steering wheel very difficult to turn at low speed. This started about a month ago (November 2016) and continues today (12/22/2016).

When I first purchased my Honda, it was brought back to the dealer several times for a "shaking" at certain speeds. This was dismissed over and over and blamed on tire air pressure and alignment. I knew this could not be the cause and found other Honda drivers complaining about the same issue. Recently, the passenger side tire came disengaged while driving the vehicle causing the car to crash down on the rotor. The vehicle was at a dealership recently for a repair, I believe this issue has been over looked by Honda and could have caused severe injury to myself or other drivers. It appears the shaking directly caused this issue with the vehicle.

Was in an accident where I needed to quickly steer out of a severe crash snd was not able to becausethe steering got stuck. Noticed problems off and on but took it to the dealership and the assured us there was no problen with car. We were not notified until after the accident that there was a recall on the this certain vehicle steering and air bags . At the time of the accident went crash occured the airbags also failed to work the came out flat.

Takata recall I call russell and smith about my car 2005 Honda acord and ask if my car is included in the air bag recall and was told no,, but I see that the year and dates on the abc 13 houston link, show my can is included. How do I go about getting it replace? thank you, benita morris benita. Morris@att. Net.

We could not get the steering wheel to lock so we could get the key in to start the car. We were stranded. What is wrong and is there some defect in the ignition?.

The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.

Even though I regularly maintain my car, my car stalls at random while driving and the steering also locks up. This is extremely dangerous - the malfunction could have killed me or potentially caused a serious accident. This incident happened while I was driving down a busy street road - there was no warning, and no indicator lights went off prior to this happening - the car just shut off (stalled) and the steering locked up! luckily I was able to get to the side of the road. I will never feel safe in a Honda again.

I am experiencing the same issue that was caused a recall for v6 model of the same year and make of my Honda Accord. The power steering hose leaks on the catalytic converter and smoke started when I was driving. I just want to report the same issue for 2. 4 l (v4 model) that was reported for v6 models.

I was traveling southbound i75 in third lane of traffic from right hand emergency strip. The front of the vehicle began to shake. At which point I heard a loud boom from the left front portion of the vehicle, as if the tire gave out. I made my way as close to the shoulder as I could. I saw that the left front tire was dismanteled from the car and completely turned backwards. After having car towed to repair shop and fixed they gave me the lower ball joint which was booke in two pieces and said that it failed and caused all the damage.

Both power steering lines rusted out.

My vehicle was parked in the parking lot of a grocery store. I was on my home from work and had stopped to purchase a few items. The engine was turned off. I had been in the store for about 10 minutes when I heard the loudspeaker asking for the owner of a 2005 gold Honda Accord to come to the customer service counter. When I approached the person behind the counter, he asked me to look outside to see if the vehicle on fire was, in fact, my car. Smoke was coming from the engine of my car and two vehicles from the fire department were trying to put out the fire. The car was totaled. Honda insisted it was my fault, but I found out much later that engine fires had occurred in other 2005 Accords. State farm gave me the replacement value for the vehicle, but it wasn't enough to purchase a car of equal value. The Honda Accord was still under warranty. I felt I should have been compensated for the entire cost of the car. Plus, if the fire had occurred while I was driving, I might not be here writing this letter to you. I was just recently made aware of some of the recalls from Honda for this exact problem. I believe Honda should take ownership of this problem and compensate me fairly for my loss. I have the VIN number and all of the paperwork from state farm, including photos of the damage to car taken after the fire.

With in the first year of owning our Honda, the clutch went out. We paid $2700 to dealership to replace the entire assembly. Ever since then the clutch or related parts such as the master cylinder goes out suddenly every 12 months.
