NHTSA Complaint #11113853 — 2002 HONDA ACCORD

WHEN I PURCHASED MY 2002 EX HONDA ACCORD IN 2015; I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING A RELIABLE DEPENDABLE CAR. HONDA IS KNOW FOR ITS RELIABILITY BUT LITTLE DID I KNOW THAT THE WHOLE SUB-FRAME (FRONT & BACK WAS FULLY RUSTED). MY SRS WARNING LIGHT COMES ON QUITE OFTEN. THE A/C DRAIN I STRONGLY BELIEVE WAS INSTALLED IMPROPERLY WHICH CAUSES THE SUB-FRAME TO RUST AND CRACK. I BOUGHT THE CAR WITH ONLY 82,358 MILES AND PURCHASED A EXTENDED WARRANTY THROUGH HONDA DEALERSHIP WHICH MY POWERTRAIN ONLY COVERED UP TO 90,000 MILES. I HAD TAKEN THE CAR FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE WHICH WAS AT 91,000 MILES AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I STARTED TO HAVE POWERTRAIN PROBLEMS. EVEN THOUGH ON MY BILL OF SALE IT STATED AS IS HONDA DEALERSHIP KNEW THAT A CUSTOMERS SUCH AS MYSELF WOULD LOOK UNDER THE BODY OF THE CAR. I WENT ONLINE AND HAVE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM I WAS HAVING WITH THIS MODEL & YEAR. ALSO THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY PROBLEM WAS AN ISSUE. WHY IS THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT & STATES ALLOWING HONDA TO SELL A CAR WITH IMPROPERLY INSTALLED A/C DRAIN,SUB-FRAME ROTTING & CRACK ISSUES, TRANSMISSION FAILURE, DEFECTIVE SEAT BELT SENSOR. I PRAY THAT NO ONE DIES FROM THIS VEHICLE. 1999-2002 MODELS. I'M A MOTHER OF FOUR WITH A NON-CURABLE DISEASE AND I JUST WANT MY CAR TO BE FULLY REPAIRED AT THE EXPENSE OF HONDA. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND TURNING IS DANGEROUS FOR ME TO BE OPERATING BUT THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION. MY MECHANIC HAS TO ME I SHOULDN'T HAVE PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE BUT I DIDN'T REALIZE THAT HONDA WOULD DO THERE CUSTOMERS WRONG LIKE THIS JUST FOR A PROFIT!!!!
