    My 1994 honda accord has the safety defect present in 1998 honda accords (refer to nhtsa campaign id number: 02v120000). I was aware of the defect about two years ago but didn't realize the accident potential until seeing an article in february 2004 consumer reports (page 11). I believe a recall and dealer repair might save a serious accident or loss of life. *jb
