Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2003 HONDA ACCORD COUPE ON JULY 31ST WHEN IT STARTED TO RAIN. AS I WAS RETURNING HOME, IT STARTED TO RAIN HARDER. DURING THIS TIME, MY WIPERS STOPPED FOR AS LONG AS A MINUTE AND THEN WOULD START AGAIN, ONLY TO PAUSE AGAIN. I TRIED SETTING THE WIPERS TO HIGH AND FOUND THAT I HAD NO HIGH. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME WITHOUT INCIDENT. I THEN RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ON THIS SITE AND FOUND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM (CAMPAIGN ID: 08V169000, NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: PE07060), HOWEVER HONDA ONLY APPLIED IT TO THE 4 DR MODELS. AS I WAS TRAVELING LAST WEEK, MY WIFE CALLED HONDA AND CONFIRMED THIS FACT. TODAY, I TOOK THE CAR IN TO MY DEALERSHIP SO THAT THEY CAN TAKE A LOOK. THE PROBLEM WAS CONFIRMED TO BE THE SAME AS THE ISSUE THAT HAS ALREADY BEEN LOGGED. *TR
