BRAND NEW GOODYEAR RS-A, 205-55-16 HAVE NO TRACTION AT ALL IN WET CONDITIONS MY CAR (ACURA CL 1999) IS ALL OVER THE ROAD I ALMOST HIT A GUARDRAIL DUE TO LACK OF TRACTION. THESE TIRES HAVE HORRIBLE REVIEWS NOW THAT I CHECKED ON WWW.TIRERACKCOM AND OTHER TIRE SITES FOR THESE REASONS; NO TRACTION. IF I KNEW THAT I WOULD NEVER HAD LET THEM BE INSTALLED ON MY CAR. THE POINT IS THAT GOODYEAR IS SELLING DANGEROUS AND FAULTY TIRES AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THE LACK OF QUALITY. THE SAFETY ISSUE IS THE MAIN CONCERN HERE; IF YOU ARE DRIVING AND IT RAINS AND THE CAR HAS ZERO TRACTION ITS A MAJOR ISSUE. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE TO RECALL THESE TIRES AND REFUND OUR MONEY AND ALSO TO TAKE THEM OFF THE ROAD BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED WHILE DRIVING. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 1999 ACURA 3.0CL. THE VEHICLE HAS GOODRIDE MODEL SP06 TIRES (NA), WHICH WERE PURCHASED AT TIRE DISCOUNTER. THE CONTACT NOTICED ONLINE THE TYPE OF TIRE THAT THE VEHICLE REQUIRED. HE WENT TO THE DEALER AND PURCHASED THE TIRES. WHEN HE ARRIVED HOME, HE NOTICED THAT THE RATING WAS DIFFERENT THAN THE SET HE SAW ONLINE. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER REGARDING THE MIX-UP WITH THE TIRES. THE GENERAL MANAGER STATED THAT THE GRADE WAS CHANGED BY THE MANUFACTURER, BUT THE TIRES WERE THE SAME. THE CONTACT FEELS THAT THE TIRES ARE NOT THE SAME BECAUSE THE VEHICLE PERFORMS DIFFERENTLY AND IS CONCERNED THAT A CRASH COULD OCCUR. THE TIRE SIZE AND DOT NUMBER WERE UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,252. UPDATED 07/23/09 *BF

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 1998 Acura 2.2CL, 1998-1999 Acura 2.3CL, 1998-1999 Acura 3.0CL, 2001 Acura 3.2CL and Acura MDX, 1998-2000 Honda Accord Coupe, Accord Sedan, Civic Sedan, Odyssey and Acura 3.5RL, 1999-2000 Acura 3.2TL, 1996-2000 Civic Coupe, 1997-2000 CR-V, 1997-1998 EV Plus, and 1998-1999 Isuzu Oasis vehicles. These vehicles were equipped with Non-Azide Driver air bag Inflators (NADI) and do not contain phase stabilized ammonium nitrate (PSAN) propellant. Due to a manufacturing issue, the NADI inflators may absorb moisture, causing the inflators to rupture or the air bag cushion to underinflate.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: In the event of a crash necessitating air bag deployment, an inflator rupture may result in metal fragments striking the driver or other occupants. An underinflated air bag cushion may not properly protect the occupant. These scenarios increase the risk of serious injury or death.
Remedy: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the driver frontal air bag inflator, and replace it if necessary, with an inflator of a different design, free of charge. The recall began October 1, 2020. Owners may contact American Honda's Customer Support & Campaign Center at 1-888-234-2138 or Isuzu customer service at 1-800-255-6727.
ON CERTAIN PASSENGER VEHICLES AND MINI VANS, THE IGNITION SWITCH MAY WEAR EXCESSIVELY AND PREVENT PROPER INTERLOCK OPERATION, MAKING IT POSSIBLE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY TO THE "OFF" POSITION AND REMOVE THE KEY WITHOUT SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION TO "PARK."
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THE VEHICLE OPERATOR DOES NOT SHIFT TO "PARK" BEFORE REMOVING THE KEY AND FAILS TO ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE, THE VEHICLE COULD ROLL AND A CRASH COULD OCCUR.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL PERFORM AN INSPECTION PROCEDURE THAT DETERMINES THE AMOUNT OF CYLINDER BODY WEAR. IF SIGNIFICANT WEAR IS INDICATED, THE DEALER WILL REPLACE THE CYLINDER BODY, COLLAR, AND LATCH PLATE. IF NO SIGNS OF WEAR ARE INDICATED, DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE LATCH PLATE WITH A REDESIGNED PART. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN DECEMBER 8, 2003. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009 OR ACURA AT 1-800-382-2238.
ON CERTAIN SEDANS, COUPES, HATCHBACKS, AND SPORT UTILITY VEHICLES, ELECTRICAL CONTACTS IN THE IGNITION SWITCH CAN DEGRADE DUE TO THE HIGH ELECTRICAL CURRENT PASSING THROUGH THE SWITCH WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: WORN CONTACTS COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE IGNITION SWITCH. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN JUNE 14, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AT 1-800-999-1009 OR ACURA AT 1-800-382-2238.
