Honda Accord Electrical System Safety Report | Jan 29, 2004
Reported on Jan 29, 2004
| WHEN MY 2000 HONDA ACCORD EX V6 WAS ABOUT 2 YEARS OLD, THE LIGHT DISPLAY ON MY AUDIO TUNER/CD WENT OUT. I THOUGHT SOMEONE JUST NEEDED TO CHANGE THE DISPLAY TO GET THE LIGHT BACK ON, BUT IT TURNED OUT THAT THE WHOLE UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALER DID REPLACE IT FREE, BUT NOT UNTIL I PUSHED THEM TO SEE THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. TODAY, ABOUT 2 YEARS AFTER THE UNIT WAS REPLACED, I STARTED MY CAR TO FIND THAT THE LIGHT WAS ON, BUT THE AUDIO UNIT WAS NOT PRODUCING ANY SOUND. I AM CALLING THE DEALER TODAY, BUT I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I HAVE NEVER HAD TO REPLACE A RADIO ON A CAR AT ALL, NOW I AM GOING TO REPLACE IT TWICE ON A CAR THAT IS 4 YEARS OLD. SOME HOW I DON'T THINK THIS IS GOING TO BE GRATIS.*AK | |
