NHTSA Complaint #10491991 — 2005 HONDA ACCORD

I WERE DRIVING ON FREEWAY 405 NEAR UCLA AT 55MPH. THERE WAS A COMPLETED FLAT TIRE ON MY LEFT FRONT WHEEL OF HONDA ACCORD 2005. I FELT THE FLAT TIRE AND SEE THE ABS LIGHT ON MY DASH BOARD TURNED ON. AFTER COMPLETE FLAT TIRE, THE TIRE DEBRIS RIP OFF MY ABS SENSOR WIRE FOR THE LEFT FRONT WHEEL. MY RIM HAS NO DAMAGE. SINCE MY TIRE IS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OLD, SO I GET FREE REPLACEMENT FROM COSTCO. I THINK THE HONDA HAS A BAD DESIGN ON THE ABS SENSOR WIRE TO MY LEFT FRONT WHEEL. THE ABS SENSOR WIRE IS NOT PROPERLY COVERED. THE FLAT TIRE DEBRIS RIPPED OFF THE ABS SENSOR WIRE. CONTACT HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THIS. THEY SAID IT IS NOT THEIR ISSUE. I THINK A PROPERLY DESIGN CAR SHOULD NOT HAVE ANYTHING RIP OFF WHEN A COMPLETE FLAT TIRE HAPPENED. HONDA SHOULD HAVE COVERED THE ABS WIRE MORE EFFECTIVELY. *TR
