Consumer Description

VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED 5/97. NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID 99V069000 RECALLED SIMILAR MODEL FOR DEFECTIVE BALL JOINTS, FOR UNITS MANUFACTURED FROM 7/97 TO 8/97. I BELIEVE MY MODEL, MANUFACTURED 5/97, HAS SAME PROBLEM. CAR MAKES "GROANING" NOISE WHEN WHEEL IS TURNED AT STARTUP, AND AROUND CURVES. FEAR UNSAFE CONDITION COULD LEAD TO ACCIDENT. PLEASE IMMEDIATELY EXTEND RECALL #99V069000 TO COVER HONDA ACCORD 1997 MODELS MANUFACTURED IN MONTHS PRIOR TO JULY 1997!!! I ASKED DEALER TO CHECK BALL JOINTS DURING ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, WAS TOLD THAT MY MODEL WAS NOT AFFECTED BY RECALL.
