Consumer Description

I HAVE A 2004 HONDA ACCORD SEDAN EX, DURING THE TROPICAL STORM HANNA, I WAS DRIVING IN HEAVY RAIN, WHEN MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STOPPED WORKING. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND THIS COULD HAVE BEEN TRAGIC. THERE IS A RECALL ON ALL 2003 HONDA ACCORDS FOR FAULTY WINDSHIELD WIPER MOTORS, BUT NO RECALL ON THE 2004. MY MECHANIC HAS FOUND THAT IT IS THE SAME SITUATION AS THE 2003 CARS AND WILL BE REPLACING THE MOTOR. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE, WHEN THEY QUIT WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN A BAD STORM. HONDA, SHOULD BE NOTIFIED OF THIS AND SERIOUSLY CONSIDER A RECALL. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN LIFE THREATENING.!!! I HAVE REPORTED MY INCIDENT TO THEM, AND WOULD LIKE TO SEE SOME ACTION TAKEN ON THIS MATTER. SARAH KING *TR
