Consumer Description

THIS IS TO DESCRIBE A SAFETY ISSUE WE DISCOVERED WITH THE 2002 HONDA. WE EXPERIENCED AN INCIDENT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE THE STEERING WHEEL SUDDENLY LOCKED UP AND FORCED THE CAR TO DRIVE INTO A GUARD RAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND MY WIFE IS NOW LEFT WITH SHOULDER AND BACK PROBLEMS. IT HAPPENED ONLY DAYS AFTER A LOCAL HONDA DEALER HAD SERVICED THE VEHICLE TO RESOLVE THE TAKATA AIRBAG RECALL. THE CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN DOWN AN OFF-RAMP AND SUDDENLY THE STEERING LOCKED UP IN A HARD RIGHT TURN WHICH FORCED THE VEHICLE INTO A CONCRETE GUARD RAIL. THE CAR IS NOW TOTALED AND WE WERE WITHOUT SUFFICIENT INSURANCE TO REPLACE THE VEHICLE.
