Consumer Description

WHILE MAKING A TURN ONTO A HIGHWAY, OUR HONDA ACCORD HAD COMPLETE AND CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF THE FRONT BALL JOINT WITH TOTAL LOSS OF STEERING. FRONT AXLE LITERALLY FELL ONTO THE ROADWAY AND FRONT LEFT TIRE WAS PERPENDICULAR TO THE CAR BODY AND KEPT US FROM BOTTOMING OUT. THANKFULLY NO OTHERS CARS IN IMMEDIATE AREA AND WE WERE NOT HIT BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. WE WERE ALSO DRIVING SLOWLY SO NO INJURIES EVEN THOUGH CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO BE CONTROLLED. CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY SAID THIS IS A UNIQUE PROBLEM AND THAT THIS HAS NEVER BEEN AN ISSUE WITH THEIR CARS. HOWEVER MANY, MANY INSTANCES DOCUMENTED ON HONDA FORUMS ON THE WEB.
