NHTSA complaint: 2003 HONDA ACCORD — STEERING
I TAKE MY HONDA TO THE DEALERSHIP EVERY 5,000 MILES FOR MAINTENANCE. I WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT IN AUGUST 2008 - SOMEONE HIT MY DRIVER SIDE REAR. THE WHEEL WAS BENT AND MY STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED 90 DEGREES. AFTER IT WAS REPAIRED, I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THE 5,000 MILE CHECKUP. THEY BALANCED AND ROTATED THE TIRES. THAT IS WHEN I FOUND OUT THE WHEEL WAS BENT. WENT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THE WHEEL WAS BENT AND THAT THE STEERING RACK WAS GOING OUT. I CONTACTED THE INSURANCE COMPANY AND THEY SAID THAT THE STEERING RACK PROBLEM WAS NOT CAUSED BY THE ACCIDENT. I NEED TO KNOW IF HONDA IS GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THIS PROBLEM SINCE I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP EVERYTIME (MAINTENANCE) SINCE I PURCHASED IT. *TR
