HONDA ELEMENT 2004 car safety problem was reported on Apr 23, 2005.HONDA ELEMENT 2004, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD . about a month ago, i noticed a crack in the windshield of my honda element. the crack in the windshield is about 4 weeks old; it had started overnight - it wasn't there when i parked it, but was there the next morning. i thought that i would just have to deal with a small crack, but decided to do some research on problems with the honda element and found several incidences of a crack in the window starting in the same place. i even found a honda service bulletin (tsb 03-028) that addressed this exact problem. i purchased my 04 honda element in mid-december of 2004, and at the time of the crack the car had less than 10,000 miles. i have read that if there was an impact point that caused the crack, that impact points always have a star crack pattern around them. mine has no crack pattern except the larger crack that moved upward and then towards the middle of my windshield - no star shape. i have also read about the surface of the windshield being uneven and that a high spot applies uneven pressure to the glass causing a stress crack. further, that a stress crack is identified by a horizontal cracks originating in the lower corners of the and radiating toward the middle of the windshield. this is exactly my problem. i repeat, the pit was smaller than the size of a grain of salt and located directly under the wiper blade. i was told that it was under warranty, and was turned away when i tried to have my window repaired. this situation is not unique to my honda element. there are many other element owners that have encountered the same problem with the windshield cracking under the windshield wiper on the passenger side of the car. honda has systematically ?found? that these cracks were caused by rocks, although admitting in a service bulletin to its dealers that this is a symptom of honda elements, and that it is probably caused by the windshield flange surface being uneven. *jb.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 9500 miles.

HONDA ELEMENT 2004 car safety problem was reported on Mar 24, 2006.HONDA ELEMENT 2004, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with STRUCTURE:BODY:BUMPERS . on a resent trip to colder climates, where there was still some snow on the ground, while parking in a parking lot, i hit a small patch of snow and slid into a tree. normally i would expect no damage due to the low speed i was traveling at around 5 mph and car bumpers to protect the vehicle in low speed mishaps. however, with the design of the 2004 honda element i own there is no bumper in the front center for approximately 30 inches. this leaves the car with no protection if struck in that area. there were two passengers in the car at the time. while we were hardly even jolted by the impact, the car sustained considerable damage in the amount of over $7000. however my concern here is not limited to what happened to me at such a low speed impact but also what would be the result at highway speeds if the car was struck or skidded in a similar way as my accident. the results would probably be disastrous with considerable losses possible. if possible then, this problem should be corrected as soon as possible. *nm.Vehicle was involved in a crash. 0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 24500 miles.

HONDA ELEMENT 2004 car safety problem was reported on Apr 27, 2008.HONDA ELEMENT 2004, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with VISIBILITY:WINDSHIELD . i own a 2004 honda element. a little over a month ago my windshield cracked. the crack started under my wiper blade and spread up very quickly. i had the windshield replaced, not knowing that this was a known common problem on 03-04 honda elements. last night i went out to my car and noticed another crack in my windshield, with the crack occurring while the car was not in motion. this is the second time in two months i have to replace the windshield, though this time i will do it through a honda dealer as a class action lawsuit has caused them to cover all windshields up to 60,000 miles on the car. which leads me to the cause for my complaint. honda is covering a known design flaw up to 60,000 miles, but not after. my car is currently at 48k miles, leaving me with 12k miles of coverage. once i reach 60k miles i will have to pay for the costs out of pocket, and with the replacement being $250-300 each time, that is not something i can afford. now i must trade in my car, a car known to have a faulty design by honda, for far less than a 05 model would be worth with similar mileage. honda put a band aid on a gaping financial wound for a consumer. their shady business practice will cause me further financial loss, hence the reason for this complaint. *tr.0 person(s) were injured. 0 person(s) died.Mileage was 47000 miles.

HONDA ELEMENT 2004 car safety problem was reported on Apr 12, 2009.HONDA ELEMENT 2004, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with POWER TRAIN:AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION . my mother arrived at my home in her element to pick up my children. she was going to drop off some items in the house while my children proceeded to get in the car to get in their car seats. the car rolled backward into the pond and the two children ages 3 and 6 (thank the lord) were rescued alive while the car quickly sank. when the car was pulled from the pond it was in neutral and the keys were on the floor. my complaint is twofold: my mother was able to shut off the car and remove the keys with the car in neutral. the gear shift on the floor does not have any visual indicator (a red line or an arrow) to indicate the gear the car is in. once the car is shut off- the indicator on the dashboard would not have been lit. i believe that the eye-hand disconnect between the shifter on the floor and the indicators on the dash is a pitfall for user-error. had she not been able to remove her keys with the car in neutral, it would have been clear to her that she had not parked the car correctly. *tr .Vehicle was involved in a crash. 2 person(s) were injured.

HONDA ELEMENT 2004 car safety problem was reported on Nov 02, 2006.HONDA ELEMENT 2004, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with SEATS . driver's seat is rocking on honda element 04. i am the first owner of this car. the seat began rocking while still in warranty but it wasn't "bad" enough to require repair - finally the dealer "replaced a bolt" 11/02/06. all further info based on repair date because i didn't record original rocking date. it began rocking again and the dealer "will do his best" to do a non permanent "bolt fix" again, but it really requires a complete replacement of the back or the seat and the parts that hold it to the floor "because we can't get the component we need separately" - it's out of our hands - the full repair - over $900.00! for something honda knows is poorly designed. completely unsatisfactory and reason enough never to buy a honda again. i thought it was just a bolt - but it's the entire design - and can't possibly be safe. they are going to 'rig it" again. every element accident with injury to the driver should require a review of this defect - maybe when someone gets hurt there will be some action taken. *tr.Mileage was 45351 miles.

HONDA ELEMENT 2004 car safety problem was reported on May 15, 2006.HONDA ELEMENT 2004, manufactured by HONDA (AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO.) had a problem with POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE . honda issued a service bulletin on the crv model honda. the element has the same running gear, but no bulletin was issued for there element....the service bulletin was necessary because the rear axle differential lubricant is failing at about 30,000 miles; causing a partial lock up of the rear differential. the service manual calls for replacement of the rear differential fluid at 90,000 miles for normal service and 60,000 miles for severe service.. one notices a judder on turning the vehicle at slow speeds, as the differential clutches bind with the failed lubricant. i see a potential sever safety problem as a result of the failed lubricant and a locked up differential. if the differential is only partially binding, this forces the vehicle to attempt to always go in a straight line, as no differential action is occurring , not compensating for the different track of the inside when turning through a curve. at the most severs situation - wet slick,or icy roads, this locked differential will cause the c=vehicle to track in a straight line, instead of turning through a curve; causing the vehicle to leave the road and potentially crash, injuring the occupants. i called honda service and expressed my concerns. they agreed such could happen, but felt the bulletin issued on the crv was satisfactory to cover the element. i disagree, as owners were not contacted and notified of the potential serious problem, and the need to replace the oil at the earlier mileages. i suggest that honda must be required to notify all owners of the el;emanate version, about the need for replacement of the require differential oil, and the potential of a serious incident if the rear differential locks up from the failed differential oil. i first noticed this when the differential became noisy as i turned through a "u" turn. on calling my dealer, i was told about the crv bulletin.....though it did not apply to the element, the dealer was aware of the potential problem. *tr.Mileage was 40000 miles.
