    The vehicle handling is poor when making sudden turns (avoidance maneuvers). When i spoke to my local dealer, the honda representative indicated there is no safety recall and everything metal rusts in this area (southeast wisconsin). He gave me a number for some honda care center, but after navigating through the automated phone system i found out the center was not open at the time i called...frustrating. Upon…

    Right side sub-frame, rear beam, k frame is completely rusted through from a/c drain line installed to drain directly onto the subframe. This causes the steering to flex substantially and according to my mechanic could cause the car steering to fail catastrophically or could allow the motor and transmission to fall out of the car. Anti-sway bar is completely broken away from the frame. Found by mechanic checking my…

    The passenger side subframe is badly compromised by rust (some holes). Parts of the suspension and steering can be compromised is it fails while driving. The driver side is not badly rusted. Honda has relocated the air conditioning drip tube in later years which might be the cause of the problem

    While driving around town heard clunk from passenger side front wheel. Jacked up car, pulled wheel and found sub frame had rotted through. This is an extremely hazardous condition, as the car could have lost steering control and have been in/caused an accident. This is a 2000 accord and have searched the web and found many other accord vehicles ( 1999-2002) with the same condition. Honda needs to step up and take…

    I bought my 2000 honda accord 4cyl. About one month ago from an owner. Drove perfect for the first week. Then one morning my brake pedal got really soft. After checking all fluids and leaks found out that my brake lines were rusted. I took my vehicle to a small shop to get my brake lines replaced. I then got a call a few days later saying i should go down and check something they noticed on my car. Turns out the…

    While bringing the vehicle to a local mechanic for brake work, the staff noticed that the right front subframe had rusted through, was broken, and was likely putting stress on the right front wheel bearing. Five days later, i returned the vehicle to the out-of-town user car sales/service business from which it was purchased and they confirmed the problem, tracing it to runoff from condensation over the air…

    Since new the speedometer has been reading 8 to 9% in error-verified by the dealer service department. Honda claims a 10% variance is normal. This can be a concern while driving the car-may be driving at the posted limits or i may not be if the calibration is off and is waverying in its readings. *ak
