THE 2016 HONDA ACCORD PURCHASED BRAND NEW BY MY MOM HAD THE STEERING FAIL WITHIN TWO MONTHS OF PURCHASE AND WAS TOWED TO DEALER. IN SEPTEMBER OF 2019 THE STEERING FAILED AGAIN. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY APPROVED NON HONDA PARTS PER THE HONDA DEALER. MOM PICKED UP DROVE TO THE BANK AND IT FAILED AGAIN. THEY PUT HONDA PARTS IN AND IT FAILED YESTERDAY BUT ONCE TURNED OFF AND ON THE STEERING RESET. THE DEALER SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG BUT REGARDLESS IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE DEALER SAID THE COMPUTER SHOWED NOTHING WRONG SO THEY RELEASED THE CAR. WE HAVE DOCUMENTATION ON ALL OF THIS.

ONE BOTTOM (MAIN) SECTION OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE DAY-TIME RUNNING LED STRIP BURNED OUT. NOW ONLY THE SIDE PORTION REMAINS ON. BOTH LED STRIPS NEED TO BE ON IN ORDER TO PROVIDE SAFETY (BETTER VISIBLE TO OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD) FOR MY BLACK CAR DURING THE DAYTIME. SINCE LED LIGHTS DO NOT BURN HOT, THEY SHOULD NOT BURN OUT AFTER 3 YEARS. BOTH LED LIGHTS WORK OK (SO FAR) ON THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY.
