Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING IN THE LANE, PROBABLY AROUND 20-25MILES THROUGH THE TRAFFIC. I WAS TRYING TO TURN LITTLE TOWARDS RIGHT BUT SOMETHING HAPPENED IN STEERING WHEEL (LOCKED/STUCK - I DO NOT KNOW) BUT THE CAR DIDN'T TURN. THE TRUCK/VAN COMING FROM OTHER DIRECTION AND MY CAR CRASHED. I IMMEDIATELY GOT OUT OF THE CAR TO SAFETY. I WAS TAKEN TO EMERGENCY FROM THE CRASH SITE. AFTER 2ND VISIT TO HOSPITAL I WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A RIB FRACTURE. I REACHED OUT TO HONDA AMERICA REGARDING THIS AND THEY SAID SINCE THE VEHICLE IS NOT ABLE TO BE INSPECTED THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING REGARDING THIS MATTER. I URGE NHTSA TO INQUIRE FURTHER IN 2006 HONDA ACCORD STEERING ISSUE SINCE I SURVIVED A FATAL ACCIDENT, OTHER MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO. IF YOU NEED FURTHER DETAILS PLEASE REACH OUT TO ME.
