Consumer Description

MY 2004 HONDA ACCORD EX V6 HAS TRACTION CONTROL. ALL OF A SUDDEN THE TC LIGHT CAME ON AND PUSHING THE SWITCH IT WILL NOT GO OUT. WHEN YOU START UP THE CAR THE ORANGE TRIANGLE STAYS LIT AND THEN WHEN YOU ARE DRIVING THE TC COMES ON AND STAYS ON. BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE PUT IT ON THE DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE BUT HE DIDN'T HAVE THE HONDA CODE. I CALLED A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY "RELEASE" THE CODE INFORMATION AND I HAVE TO BRING IT INTO A HONDA DEALER AT $186 FOR THE FIRST HOUR JUST TO RUN A TEST!!! THE CAR DOES NOT EVEN MOVE IN THE SNOW HERE IN THE NORTHEAST WITHOUT THE TC. I HEARD THAT THE HONDA ACCORD WAS HAVING ISSUES WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM. *TR
