Consumer Description

MY 1999 HONDA ACCORD V6 HAS A RUSTED SUBFRAME ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS APPEARS TO BE CAUSED BY DRIPPING WATER FROM THE AIR CONDITIONER. THE DRIVERS SIDE SUBFRAME IS IN PERFECT CONDITION. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH UNCOVERS SEVERAL NEWS STORIES AND OFFICIAL INQUIRIES TO HONDA FOR AN IDENTICAL PROBLEM. FURTHER NO DEALER OR MECHANICS UNTIL A FEW DAYS AGO REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO ME. AFTER SEEING THE EXTENSIVE RUST MISSING SECTIONS IT'S IMPOSSIBLE TO NOT SEE THE DAMAGE WHEN CHANGING THE OIL. EVEN I CAN TELL THERE IS A PROBLEM. MY CAR IS NOW INOPERABLE BECAUSE IT'S NOT SAFE. AT THE MOMENT IT ONLY HAS 110K MILES OR APPROX 6K A YEAR. I DON'T SEE A RECALL FOR THIS YET THE ISSUE SEEMS COMMON.
