The car vibration increases whenever the car is in drive and idling at a stop light, stop sign, parking lot, etc. During cold weather temperatures the vibration is excessive and can make a rattling noise come from the engine. This has been happening for a few months now continuously. Honda dealerships refuses to consider it as an issue.

My wife was driving down the highway and without any indication of trouble the electric power steering failed. Car is extremely hard to turn without this. She barely made it to the side of the road. Since we had to get to an exit i took over. The steering takes a lot of muscle to turn the vehicle because of the small steering wheel. I am glad i was with her. I researched and found honda had a big problem with this…

I was driving my car when suddenly the steering wheel became very heavy and it was almost impossible to turn it to any direction. The hydraulic system stopped working without any warning. I was traveling at very slow speed (20 miles/h) on a very calm street. So i could manage to stop on the shoulder. I turn off the engine. After some seconds i turn on the engine and the steering wheel started working properly again.…
