Bumper Problems of Honda Accord

The contact owns a 2009 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the pieces holding the front and rear bumpers in place were constantly breaking as they were made of plastic. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, he heard abnormal rubbing and grinding sounds coming from the front of the vehicle. The contact continued to drive. Upon parking and inspecting the vehicle, the contact noticed that the driver's side front bumper was detaching. The contact purchased rubbers and was able to reinstall the front bumper himself. However, the failure reoccurred several times. Additionally, the contact later became aware that the rear bumper had separated from the vehicle as there was no bumper on the rear of the vehicle. The dealer and the manufacturer were not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 300,000.

Car idles high and eratic since a new alternator was put on due to light(in and out) flickering along with fan and radio cutting out when a/c unit is used and cooling fans kick on and off. Since then car idles high, surges went fron tacking 1100 cold to 1500. Went from warm idle at 600 and is now 8-900rpms. Lights still do the same thing but they agree there was a voltage drop after two dealers said it was acharcteristic. After two month the cars going back in for a second seat track and a syl plate that was damaged. Now along with a list of problems the front bumper is pealing in same spot on left and right side near headlights. I alreadt complained about the bumpers not fitting. Dealer did idle relearn procedeure that did nothing. Check fuel cap message comes on and check engine light was on. They claim after 20 years of driving and 4 Hondas,I don't know how to put a gas cap on. Worst car I ever had. The worst part is the attitude of the dealers and Honda. I have been waiting for over two months for a rep,las time dealer snuck a note in that I refused to see the rep. I faxed them a demand letter to see the rep and another dealer was also supposed to set a meeting up. They claim he is out with a bad back(philadelphia area rep,)I am suing Honda under the lemon law. I had enough. The suit was filed and my court date is in October,contact me with any questions or comments. Car alo smell like a rotten egg.

Car idles rough and stalls,check fuel cap message comes on. This was after they replaced alternator due to lights flickering and radio and fans going in and out. Alternator did not help and now the idles is high and eratic, system that detects missing fuel cap is inop. When car comes to a stop the idle stops real hgigh and comes down as you sit at the light. The dealer says the owners maual is wrong about the way system works. I drove two identical ones and while the cars were still of poor quality,the idle was the same as before they messed with car. Other issues include bad seat tracks, bad upulstry, paint on bumpers improperly finished. Honda refuses to fix these issues. I am taking it under the lemon law and urge all others to do the same.

Ongoing isuues with electircal system, lights flickering, accessories going in and out,seat uhpulstry and paint and seat frame. Had into another dealer and they said bad paint ,bad fabric and flickering lights are chacteristics of the 2008 Honda Accords. Service manager varified all problems and then I get a call later to pick up car because they tried to fix the seat and couldnt so they ordered another seat frame. I picked the car up next day with fraudulent paperwork,wrong dates and mialege. I was wondering why seatbelt did not feal tight. I get home and see that when they took seat out to try and fix,mechanic did not install seat belt back on the frame and he distryed the syl plate taking seat in and out and now the bolt cover is also missing. Dealer picked up car from and brought it back. Did not send car back with paperwork or even an apolagy. They claim they ordered replacement parts to fix what they damaged. Please email me and I will let you know anything youd like. Honda was no help. Fourth time Honda owner and last! Hondas quality and attitude is so poor, I am going back to american cars.

My 2008 Honda Accord ex coupe is a nightmare. Trying to use the defroster while warming up car,blower motor kept losing power. Lights in and out of car are still flickering when you have the lights on and cooling fan comes on. Honda says all Hondas do it. This is my fourth and this is the only one with this electrical issue. Honda is rude , and doesn't care. Besides pealing paint, bad drivers upholstry,the passenger seat will not stay still and hass a bead creaking sound. My selling dealer that told me not to come backs service manager told me I weigh too much. I am 245 lbs now. When we had our 04 and 06 I was 300 and it was fine. When you accelerate and decelerations seat moves. I have a spinal cord injury and today this caused it to hurt even more. If anyone would like to email me about what we should do with our expensive nightmares.

Hit mound of ice at very low speed (under 5mph), plastic bumper cover split and caught on ice. When I backed up to get off ice, entire plastic bumper cover was ripped off. Was told by repair shop this part may have become brittle due to extreme cold weather and the slightest impact caused it to split. Cost over $900 to repair a piece of plastic. Plastic bumper cover and pieces that held it on had to be replaced. Car has been repaired, don't know whereabouts of old parts, if still at shop or not. No damage to any other parts of the car, just the bumper cover.

Honda 2003 Accord is equipped with a design defect of costly and potentially harmful, from a safety standpoint, defect. The lower grill on the front bumper is designed in such a way that any road debris smaller than a 16" x 8" concrete block can enter and damage a fully-exposed and unprotected air conditioning (ac) condenser. It is clearly unprotected from the harsh outside elements. The ac is an integral part of the safety of this automobile in that to clear the windshield from any moisture on the inner surface, the ac must be acting in proper fashion. If a car's inside glasses fog-up with moisture, the only solution is to turn on the moisture wringing ac unit, regardless of the temp of the air, the dehumidifier effect of the ac conditioned air is an absolute necessity. The current design of the grill/condenser leaves it vulnerable to be easily damaged by a bit of gravel as small as a bb pellet. There is not any screen or deflector in place forward of the condenser to prohibit any errant road missiles from damaging the condenser thereby creating the safety hazard of a fogged windshield and more. A simple screen or deflector could and should be installed to protect the safety of this car.

Missing front bumper bolts clearly indicated my allegedly new 2001 Accord's bumper had been replaced. California-Honda representative visiitng the dealership said she "couldn't explain" how the bolts could have slipped through holes smaller than the boltheads, but that my compaint merely indicated I was unhappy with the car, or I somehow dislodged the bolts, and anyhow that was too bad. Specifically, I was informed that it is not illegal to sell a new car that had been repaired. A dealership mechanic then shouted at my wife and I to "get out" of his busy garage. The dealership's manager (not present during the dispute) subsequently responded to my complaint with bbb by ignoring the complaint and praising his garage staff who, he assured bbb, told him everything. Eventually I discovered that bbb not only rejected my complaint but also did not bother to registerit as a complaintt. Wheni pointed out its omission, bbb finally noted the complaint--as the only one against this large dealership, which is a bbb member,and described the complaint as "resolved. " it was not. My wife, accompanying me at the garage incident though ill with pancreatic cancer, has since died, and such were times that did not encourage my pursuing either bbb or the Honda dealership, located in bloomsburg, PA, for what I had supposed would be simple anwers, not defensive evasions.
