Consumer Description

VEHICLE BEGAN POURING OUT OIL FROM WITHIN THE TIMING COVER. ENDED UP REPLACING ALL BELTS INCLUDING TIMING BELT DUE TO OIL HAVING COVERED EVERYTHING. ALSO REPLACED WATER PUMP WHILE UNIT WAS OPEN. MECHANIC SAID BALANCE SHAFT SEAL WAS CAUSE OF PROBLEM - SAID IT WAS THE 4TH HE HAD SEEN IN ABOUT THE LAST WEEK THAT INVOLVED AN ACCORD. RESEARCHED RECALL INFO ON INTERNET AND DISCOVERED IN USA TODAY SEPT 19,2000 THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM IN OHIO MANUFACTERED CARS AND THOSE WERE BEING RECALLED FOR WHAT APPEARS AS THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN JAPAN HOWEVER. MADE A CALL TO HONDA MOTOR CO., SAID THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS FOR THIS VEHICLE IN PARTICULAR BUT THAT THEY RECEIVED THEIR INFO FROM NHTSA AND COULD NOT HELP ME SINCE THERE WAS NO EXISTING RECALL. SEEMS A HONDA SHOULD GO MORE THAT 50,000 WITHOUT MAJOR ENGINE REPAIR WORK. THANKS FOR YOUR HELP!*AK
