NHTSA Complaint #11372810 — 2009 HONDA ACCORD

MY NAME IS [XXX]. BETWEEN MY MOTHER AND I WE OWN 4 HONDA VEHICLES. 2 ACCORDS AND 2 CIVICS. THE TWO ACCORDS ARE MODEL YEARS 2009 AND 2016. 2009 HONDA ACCORD LX-S 242K MILES 2016 HONDA ACCORD SPORT 47K MILES I HAVE NOTICED BOTH OF THESE CARS TO HAVE A ISSUE WITH OIL AT STARTUP. THE 2009 MAKES MORE NOISE THAN THE 2016. IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE VCT ACTUATOR ON THE CAR. THIS IS JUST AN ISSUE AT STATIONARY STARTUP. WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION THERE IS NO ISSUES. I DID A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH TO SEE AND I PULLED PAGES AND PAGES OF INFO ABOUT PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE. IT EVEN SHOWS THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND THEY SENT OUT SERVICE BULLETINS REGARDING THIS BUT AS TO WHY THE OWNERS ARE STILL HAVING TO PAY FOR THIS IS NOT RIGHT. THIS IS A VIDEO OF THE ISSUE: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=8GMJAS9CUWG THIS IS OBVIOUSLY NOT A ONE TIME DEAL WITH THIS ISSUE ON THE ACCORDS. MY CIVICS DO NOT HAVE ANY NOISE AT START UP, THEY ARE 2009 AND 2014 YEAR MODELS. THANKS FOR YOUR TIME [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
