Power Steering Pump Problems of Honda Accord

I was driving the car and the power steering pump went out and a week later my transmission started slipping then all of a sudden my car wouldn't go into gears and the transmission stopped working completely. It will work for 5 min then it completely won't go in any gear. I had to have it towed home. It was on the road on the bypass and I started acting up then it stopped working completely when I went to get off of work and wouldn't go in to gear at all after that. So I had to have it towed home. I had it looked at by a local mechanic and he said the car had a recall on multiple things for me to look into it because it was gonna cost around 2000 to fix everything.

The power steering on my car is stiffening, it's hard to steer. The vsa light is on along with check engine light. I took my car into finlay Honda in flagstaff, az after I found there was a recall on the power steering. I had a new power steering pump put in before I saw the recall notice, so therefore I took it in to finlay Honda but, recall was not performed due to an aftermarket power steering replaced in my car. The power steering pump worked ok for awhile, but it is beginning to steer hard and I haven't been driving it due to the safety issue. I can not afford to buy a new pump and hose from the dealer, and besides it's on recall no matter what. The power train and the tranny are in great condition and I would like to keep on driving this great vehicle as long as possible. I would like to take it to another dealer (melloy Honda) here in nm if the recall is still honored. At the moment my car is just parked at home. Like I said it is hard to steer when I drive it. I will need the car for transportation back and forth to work soon, as I will be going back to work in August. I appreciate you looking into this matter and will look forward to a response from you as soon as possible. Thank you.

For the steering, the power steering pump doesn't hold power steering fluid and when you go around a curve and there is a bump in the road, your steering wheel jerks the other way. It's way worse with no power steering but it is still there even if you have fluid. The transmission will jump in between first and second gear so roughly it feels like your transmission is going to fall out, sometimes you can't go because of it and it's almost caused some accidents. You can't get up to the speed you need to with it being so rough and jumpy. Then there is a ticking noise when I press on the gas peddle, from the timing belt and transistor. Some of these problems have been happening since I got the car, like the shifting and the steering. The ticking has been there but not as badly as it is now. I also know I'm not the only Honda driver with these issues from this make and model and era for this car.

Wipers and wiper washer stopped working; no blown fuses involved; keyless entry system not working; remote control is now opening just the trunk but nothing else; radio backlight not working & power steering gets hard in cold weather or after driving on streets or roads with little maneuver. Even after pump replacement.

I was driving in heavy rain and my windshield wipers stopped working and I could not see a thing. I was lucky enough that other cars went around me on the highway. I called my local Honda dealership and they stated that their is not a recall on my vehicle and wanted to charge me an outrageous amount to replace the wiper motor. There is currently a recall on this for 2003 Honda Accords no. Q78 when the motor gets wet it stops working but for some reason it does not include my vehicle VIN number. Also I had a leak in my power steering and took it in for the recall and they said it was the pump and ended up charging me $500. 00 to fix but it is still leaking.

The power steering hose was recently replaced due to recall 12v-222. However, I believe the power steering pump is damaged and is related to this recall. Multiple mechanics, including the dealer, suspect the pump may be going out, though it is still functioning fine. Honda should cover the cost of replacing the power steering pump. Also, the o-ring in the inlet hose was not replaced. I realize it was not part of the recall, but there are wide reports that this o-ring, once replaced, will resolve a leaking issue. Honda should also cover this.

I delivered my vehicle to a local Honda dealer (aventura Honda) on March 27, 2014 (pursuant to american Honda motor CO. 's letter to me dated March 2014 and telephonic instructions from american Honda motor CO. Personnel) regarding NHTSA recall 12v-222. Please note that, initially, I was unable to schedule the warranty part replacement with aventura Honda, despite my in-person and telephone attempts to do so. After several weeks, american Honda motor CO. Personnel arranged for an appointment. Prior to any work being performed, my vehicle was inspected by the service technician in my presence as he attempted to explain the 2-3 hours he estimated it would take to do the part replacement. At no point did he indicate that there was any defect in any of the connecting parts. I spent the entire time my care was being serviced in the service area attempting to me with the service manager as instructed by american Honda motor CO. Personnel. After the work was completed, I observed notes on the service invoice indicating that the pump and reservoir were now leaking. I brought this (and its discrepancy with the earlier inspection of my vehicle) to the attention of the dealer's service staff, to no avail. Upon returning home, I contacted american Honda motor CO. Personnel and relayed the incident to them and provided them with a copy of the invoice. I was told that american Honda motor CO. Would investigate and get back to me with their proposed solution. I have subsequently been contacted by both the dealer and american Honda motor CO. Personnel. I have been told that the cost for additional repairs to my car are estimated at over $600. 00. American Honda motor CO. Initially offered to offset that cost, but after I attempted to discuss the matter further, I was subsequently informed me that the offer had been rescinded and that they have closed the file on the matter.

2010 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regards to power steering rack and pump replacement.

2006 Honda Accord. Consumer seeks reimbursement for a faulty power steering hose. The consumer stated she wrote Honda requesting reimbursement for additional expenses incurred due to the faulty engineering and poor quality of the oem's power steering hose. Honda contacted the consumer, to inform her, they would not honor her request. Due to the fact that the vehicle functioned for many years with the faulty hose, the power steering pump had to be replaced as well. The consumer referenced recall # 12v222000.

2003 Honda Accord. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle repairs and seeks reimbursement. The consumer stated within the past year, the timing belt, serpentine belt, water pump, transmission, heater valve, transmission mounts, power steering pump, dash and steering links were all replaced.

Honda had a recall on the power steering hose but by the time they contacted me to go in my power steering pump started making severe noise. Now no one will cover it.

Honda Accord 2003 power steering hose recall. Went to dealer and was told the both power steering hose and pump are leaking. The recall covers hose but was charged $600 for the pump replacement. I noticed smoke or burnt smell yesterday.

In February, I had to replace the power steering pump, and driver side power window switch. In June I had to replace the starter motor.

As a result of the recall on the power steering hose deteriorating, my power steering pump went out. I paid $700. 00 getting it fixed in January 2013. I was told by Honda of tiffany springs that my power steering pump going out had nothing to do with the hose deteriorating. I trusted them and had it fixed and paid in full. I took my car to another very trusted mechanic and was told otherwise. Since then, dealing with Honda of tiffany springs has been a nightmare! about two weeks ago my steering started making a really weird noise. Low and behold, Honda of tiffany springs told me my power steering pump was out again. Another $700. 00 to fix it. . . They show no records of ever replacing my power steering pump, therefore there is no warranty. I have contacted an attorney about Honda of tiffany springs. Not only have they lied about my power steering and stolen money from me on parts that were clearly under recall or warranty, they have stripped my oil pan plug for the second time and my car was leaking oil all over my garage. I paid my trusted mechanic to fix that problem not once but twice, which Honda of tiffany springs should pay me back for. I am sick of Honda of tiffany springs!!! ever since mr. Chezik got sick & passed away, that place has gone downhill. I am ready to buy a new car, but not from there!! I will never take my car there again! I love the service manager, dave rose, and I do understand that his hands are tied when it comes to hiring and firing the losers in the service department. I have purchased cars from there since 1989. That has come to an end. I love Honda's, but this nightmare has left me no other choice than to buy a Ford. Words that I thought I would never say.

Whining noise upon engine startup, very prominent when turning the steering wheel. Recall o-ring fix only helped for a few weeks. Had to replace the power steering pump.

Hard to steer at low speed. At idle, can not turn wheel very well unless you put in neutral and increase the rpm. Power steering pump used to squeal and dealer replaced some seals on power steering system. Honda repair shop said " many Honda cars steer hard" if I need to turn wheel at low speed to get out of way of danger, forget it!.

2009 Honda Accord leased in 2008 from valley Honda, 4173 ogden avenue, aurora IL, 60504. The vehicle was returned to the dealership due to noise coming from brakes and steering wheel pulling to the left. Returned vehicle several more times complaining of same issue. Valley Honda stated there per techline, Honda is aware of the problem and is working on a countermeasure. In my opinion this is a safety hazard. I explained to Honda, the dealership and the better business bureaus that this is a safety hazard because I have to "pump" my brakes in order to control the vehicle during stopping. . . All disagreed. Can you help?.

When starting the car in the morning and backing out of garage, noticed a whining, grinding noise coming from under the hood, and more so when turning steering wheel. The car would also whine when driving and accelerating. Also found that the steering wheel was getting gradually harder to turn. Brought car to local Honda dealership where they replaced the 0-ring at power steering inlet joint but found the whining to continue. The power steering pump & reservoir were changed which solved the problem. Six months later, found a leak under the car and burning smell. Returned to Honda dealership and found leak coming from power steering pressure hose. Hose was replaced. About 4 years later, started noticing whining/humming noise coming from under the hood again. Immediately brought it in to an independent repair shop that specializes in Hondas. They thought it was the tensioner and changed it. The car continued to whine. The power steering pump was replaced again. It took care of the noise. The pump that was replaced at the Honda dealership lasted only 35502 miles. Find this unacceptable that the 2004 Honda Accord has had 3 power steering pumps in the span of 9 years and the car has only 93722 miles.

My 2008 Accords consistently flash/dim every 30 seconds when the auto climate control mode is on. This is a safety issue when driving on a dark road at night as one's eyes naturally look away from the road for about a second-- enough time to be dangerous. I complained to the dealer and they said all vehicles do this. I have never heard of any vehicle doing this. I asked when the service bulletin would be coming out, assuming there is one in the works given the widespread issue, but the service writer ignored my comment. I had to literally demand that the dealer write my complaint on the repair order, and at the end, with my repair order, the clerk handed me an article trying to explain away the issue or pacify me. (it was a Honda article, which looked like it was from a repair manual or brochure, which stated that basically, if the customer complained to tell them its normal. ) in "auto" climate mode, the air conditioning compressor/fan kicks on every 30 seconds (even in the middle of winter) and the lights seem to flash at that time. Also,the steering pump makes a very loud whining/moaning noise at 1500-2000 rpms, and the steering in the vehicle has a shuttling/slipping sensation in the steering wheel upon turning. The dealer confirmed the steering issue and has ordered a new power steering pump which will hopefully remedy the issue. Finally, the driver's door handle, interior and exterior, does not open the door on occasion. This is also a safety issue as being able to exit the vehicle in emergency is critical. For such a highly touted vehicle manufacturer, Honda needs to work on fixing problems with their cars on the road and finding a resolution, not just their reputation and/or their bottom line. Also, Honda needs to instruct its dealers to take its customer's complaint's seriously, not simply attempt to diminish the complaint (I. E. Headlights flashing) because it is a widespread issue. I am disappointed with Honda's handling of the defects.

Similar to the recent Acura tsx recall, my 2003 Honda Accord has the same similarities with the power steering hose. I was told by an Honda dealership that a hole has developed on my power steering hose. Any time I turn the car there is a noise that the car makes, this is extremely noticeable in cooler weather. Due to the high quote my Honda dealership quoted me on, I have yet to fix the problem that my car has had for the past two years. In addition they told me, I would need a new power steering pump, hose, and fluid.

Vehicle with extended warranty was purchased from Honda of pasadena on 7/22/05 (delivery done on 7/26/05). On 10/10/05 vehicle developed a mechanical problem. On 10/14/05 vehicle delivered to colonial Honda for diagnosis and repair. They identified the problem as intermittent power steering system failure w/ extremely low fluids, no leaks. They topped up fluids and indicated that the system should function normally. Their trained technician noticed (and pointed out) evidence some body work and repainting done to the front end of the vehicle. Honda of pas. Had never disclosed to me that the car had sustained any kind of damage or repairs prior to sale of the car to me. The car was sold as brand new, not 'as-is'. After my initial complaint, Honda of pas. Failed to produce records of damage/repairs prior to sale of the vehicle, they did not believe the damage/repair was significant. The problem continues to persist. On 10/31/05 vehicle back to colonial Honda for repair. Service manager at colonial indicated that they would not repair it under warranty since they believed the problem was caused by collision damage. I would have to pay $90. 00 to have diagnosis. At that time no repair was done. Honda of pas. And american Honda both declined to do anything about the vehicle. A) if the vehicle was indeed damaged in a collision, then that would void several parts of the factory warranty and extended warranty that they sold to me for $1350 (sales fraud & misrepresentation). Potentially there could be additional safety-related problems with the vehicle that are (still) dormant at this stage b) if Honda of pas. Is telling the truth, then this power steering failure is a defect that needs to be addressed: however colonial refuses to fix the problem under warranty. I want to know 1) if the driveability of the vehicle was compromised 2) if I'm putting myself at risk by driving the vehicle 3) if the factory warranty and additional extended warranty that I purchased are valid.

Premature power steering pump failure as exhibited by whining noise coming from the unit. Dealer acknowledges this noise will lead to power steering failure, that the failure (at 60000 miles in this case) is premature, and that there is an apparent pattern of such failures in Honda Accord cars. The dealer refused to do anything and said the manufacturer is not looking into the problem in spite of its safety implications and the apparent pattern of failures.

I was traveling on the interstate and my gas pedal locked, then my steering system, followed by the gas pedal. I was surrounded by huge trucks and was traveling with small children and was able to stop the car. I then repeatedly smashed the brake pedal and forced the steering to stir me to the side of the road the car went into the ditch and came to a fairly abrupt stop. When I arrived to the dealership, they told me that it was a problem with the alternator, but suggested that I should replaced the water pump. I asked for an engineer to look at the car and be given a statement of safety before I risked my life driving the car. They agreed when my brother-in-law asked but I was denied after he got off the phone and spoke with me although my car is 90 days old and under a full bumper to bumper warranty.

Power steering pump failed.
