MY SECOND PROBLEM WAS DURING THE WINTER ON THE REAL COLD DAYS THE STARTER SOUNDED LIKE IT WAS HANGING UP AS DESCRIBED AS THE VTC ACTUATOR. MY THIRD PROBLEM IS THE WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASH FOR THE AIR BAG HAS ILLUMINATED. I CONTACTED HONDA TODAY AND THEY TOLD ME THE LIGHT ONLY COMES ON AFTER IT HAS BEEN TO THE BODY SHOP? ALSO I HAVE RECEIVED A CLAIM FORM FOR A REIMBURSABLE DEPLOYMENT PRIOR TO FEB 13 2014. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN A ACCIDENT AND NEITHER HAS THE CAR. SO IF THERE IS A CLAIM FOR THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL FOR THE AIR BAG? *TR

I NOTICED MY CAR WAS MAKING A STRANGE NOISE WHEN I FIRST STARTED IT UP. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN ROANOKE VIRGINIA, AND THEY TOLD ME I WAS RUNNING THE CAR WITHOUT OIL. THEY FILLED IT UP FOR ME, AND CHANGE THE OIL FILTER. NOT EVEN 3000 MILES LATER, THE CAR WAS MAKING THE SAME NOISE. I LOOKED UP ON THE INTERNET FORUMS AND FOUND THE OIL CONSUMPTION CONCERNS. I BROUGHT THIS UP TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE ROANOKE DEALERSHIP, AND HE DISMISSED IT. HE SAID IT IS COMMON TO PUT A QUART OF OIL IN THE ACCORD ABOUT EVERY 1000 MILES. I AM IN SALES, AND I DRIVE ABOUT 900 MILES A WEEK. WHEN THIS WAS FIRST BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIPS ATTENTION, I WAS JUST OVER 40,000 MILES, AND I WAS STILL UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY. I REPEATEDLY BROUGHT THIS UP TO THE SAME SERVICE MANAGER, AND HE SAID HE CAN DO A CONSUMPTION TEST, BUT IT WILL TAKE MANY MILES TO COMPLETE. HE REASSURED ME THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BASED ON ITS REPUTATION OF BEING A LONG-LASTING VEHICLE WITH VERY FEW PROBLEMS. NOW KNOWING THE HONDA/THE ROANOKE DEALERSHIP IS LYING, MY TRUST IN HONDA HAS BEEN SHAKEN. *TR

I HAVE NOTICED THAT I AM IN NEED OF OIL CHANGES MORE FREQUENTLY THAN IN THE PAST. HISTORICALLY, I WENT EVERY 3,000 MILES. NOW, I NOTICE THE VEHICLE GETS "SLUGGISH" AROUND 2,200-2,500 MILES. I GET AN OIL CHANGE, AND EVERYTHING IS USUALLY GOOD..... FOR ABOUT ANOTHER 2,200 MILES. THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN DAILY ALL OPEN HIGHWAY. 2 WEEKS AGO, I GOT A FULL SERVICE OIL CHANGE FROM A DEALER. ON 5/19/14 MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON, THE VSA LIGHT, AND THE (!) LIGHT. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND CHECKED THAT ALL HOSES WERE INTERACT, I COULD NOT HEAR ANY AIR LEAKS, ETC. I CHECKED THE OIL STICK AND IT WAS ESSENTIALLY BONE DRY! (THE ENGINE WAS WARM) NO OIL SLICKS PUDDLES IN THE DRIVEWAY, PARKING SPACES, NOTHING! I IMMEDIATELY PUT 2 QUARTS IN AT THE GAS STATION, FRESH GAS, AND THE EVERYTHING TURNED OFF! IS IT POSSIBLE TO BE BURNING OIL THAT QUICKLY? I HOPE NOT! I'LL BE MONITORING THIS CLOSELY. *TR

Opened Aug 18, 2015 · Closed Jun 17, 2016
Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Air Bags; Air Bags:frontal:sensor/control MODULE-INACTIVE
As discussed further below, and by letter dated January 22, 2016, Honda is recalling certain model year (MY) 2008 through 2010 Honda Accords to replace a defective air bag/SRS control module that can result in the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) becoming fully inoperative (disabled).See NHTSA Safety Recall 16V056 at SaferCar.gov for further details.Honda's response to an agency Information Request letter indicated that the SRS module was manufactured by tier-one supplier Continental and contained a power supply ASIC manufactured by tier-two supplier Atmel. The original ASIC was susceptible to a moisture ingress issue due to inadequate ASIC passivation layer.Water ingress could result in moisture reaching the Titanium Nitride (TiN) layer in the ASIC causing corrosion and breakage of electrical circuits.The damaged ASIC then causes failures of the SRS module resulting in 1) incomplete boot-up when power is supplied to the module or 2) the inability of the module to establish either internal or external bus communications.In either case the air bag readiness indicator light on the instrument cluster is illuminated and all air bags and seat belt pretensioners are disabled.During the investigation, ODI obtained the SRS module from a complainant crash vehicle where the air bags did not deploy despite a significant frontal impact.An inspection of the module was performed at a Continental facility.The inspection confirmed that the module had the ASIC fault thus preventing the SRS module from completing the boot-up process.An attempt was made to recover stored EDR data from the module however none was present; this outcome is consistent with an Atmel ASIC failure.A second SRS module alleged to have the ASIC problem was inspected during the same visit.This second module was unable to communicate with the test equipment.The ASIC was replaced on this module and full function was restored to the module confirming the ASIC as the cause of the SRS module fault.According to Honda, tier-two Atmel implemented three different corrective actions in early 2008.Implementation of the corrective actions into module production by tier-one Continental, and into vehicle production by Honda resulted in three distinct vehicle populations.The first population consists of certain non-consecutively built MY 2008 to 2010 Accords with modules that did not contain any of the corrective actions.This population of 341,444 vehicles exhibited a significant level of module failure in service and is thus being recalled.The second population of 382,693 non-consecutively built MY 2008 to 2010 Accords contained two of the three corrective actions.This population exhibited a significantly lower level of SRS module failure, compared to the first population, but a marginally higher level compared to the third population.Honda is conducting a 15 year unlimited mileage extended warranty program for this second population.Under the program Honda will replace the SRS module free of charge for vehicles that experience an SRS module malfunction due to ASIC failure.Owners eligible for the extended warranty will be notified by Honda in writing.The third population consists of vehicles containing all three corrective actions, this population exhibits a normal level of SRS module failure.Based on the safety recall and extended warranty this investigation is closed.The VOQ reports cited above can be reviewed at SaferCar.gov under the following identification numbers: 10871612, 10869953, 10810554, 10788238, 10781994, 10778712, 10765025, 10761583, 10759019, 10758622, 10747850, 10735806, 10734761, 10733519, 10715339, 10703521, 10676517, 1065

The original ASIC was susceptible to a moisture ingress issue due to inadequate ASIC passivation layer.Water ingress could result in moisture reaching the Titanium Nitride (TiN) layer in the ASIC causing corrosion and breakage of electrical circuits.The damaged ASIC then causes failures of the SRS module resulting in 1) incomplete boot-up when power is supplied to the module or 2) the inability of the module to establish either internal or external bus communications.In either case the air bag readiness indicator light on the instrument cluster is illuminated and all air bags and seat belt pretensioners are disabled.During the investigation, ODI obtained the SRS module from a complainant crash vehicle where the air bags did not deploy despite a significant frontal impact.An inspection of the module was performed at a Continental facility.The inspection confirmed that the module had the ASIC fault thus preventing the SRS module from completing the boot-up process.An attempt was made to recover stored EDR data from the module however none was present; this outcome is consistent with an Atmel ASIC failure.A second SRS module alleged to have the ASIC problem was inspected during the same visit.This second module was unable to communicate with the test equipment.The ASIC was replaced on this module and full function was restored to the module confirming the ASIC as the cause of the SRS module fault.According to Honda, tier-two Atmel implemented three different corrective actions in early 2008.Implementation of the corrective actions into module production by tier-one Continental, and into vehicle production by Honda resulted in three distinct vehicle populations.The first population consists of certain non-consecutively built MY 2008 to 2010 Accords with modules that did not contain any of the corrective actions.This population of 341,444 vehicles exhibited a significant level of module failure in service and is thus being recalled.The second population of 382,693 non-consecutively built MY 2008 to 2010 Accords contained two of the three corrective actions.This population exhibited a significantly lower level of SRS module failure, compared to the first population, but a marginally higher level compared to the third population.Honda is conducting a 15 year unlimited mileage extended warranty program for this second population.Under the program Honda will replace the SRS module free of charge for vehicles that experience an SRS module malfunction due to ASIC failure.Owners eligible for the extended warranty will be notified by Honda in writing.The third population consists of vehicles containing all three corrective actions, this population exhibits a normal level of SRS module failure.Based on the safety recall and extended warranty this investigation is closed.The VOQ reports cited above can be reviewed at SaferCar.gov under the following identification numbers: 10871612, 10869953, 10810554, 10788238, 10781994, 10778712, 10765025, 10761583, 10759019, 10758622, 10747850, 10735806, 10734761, 10733519, 10715339, 10703521, 10676517, 1065
