IN JUNE OF 1999 I GOT INTO MY 1995 HONDA ACCORD TO START IT AND THE MOMENT IT TURNED OVER THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON. I CALLED ONE OF THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIPS (ONEAL HONDA) AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING MY CAR IN FOR THEM TO CHECK WHY THE ABS LIGHT WAS ON. ONEAL HONDA RAN MY CAR THROUGH SEVERAL TESTS AND AFTER 3 HRS. TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT AND THEY DID NOT KNOW WHY MY AIRBAG LIGHT WAS STAYING ON. THE MANAGER OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THE ONLY ALTERNATIVE WAS TO CHECK THE ELECTRICAL HARNES TO SEE IF ANYTHING SHOWED UP THERE. HE ALSO SAID THEY MAY NOT FIND A SOLUTION WITH THAT OPTION EITHER. HE WANTED TO CHARGE ME $500.00 FOR FURTHER INVESTIGATION. I REFUSED TO HAVE THEM DO THE WORK.. THE FOLLOWING JULY, I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH BLUE/GRAY SMOKE COMING FROM THE EXHAUST PIPES. I HAD A SERVICE REPAIR MAIN CHECK IT OUT FOR ME . HIS FINDINGS WERE THAT IT PROBABLY HAD A CRACKED SEAL. MY CAR ONLY HAD 65000 MILES ON IT AT THAT TIME. I CALLED THE ONEAL DEALERSHIP AND TALKED TO THE SERVICE MAN ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. HE SAID THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE. HONDA'S DO NOT HAVE THOSE PROBLEMS WITH THAT LOW OF MILEAGE. NOT MORE THAN ONE YEAR LATER THE ANTI LOCK BRAKE SENSOR (ACCUMULATER) WENT OUT . I TOOK MY CAR TO JAY WOLFE HONDA TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. HE SAID THE BRAKE FLUID WAS GONE AND IT NEEDED A NEW SENSOR. I HAVE ALWAYS KEPT THE MAINTENANCE UP ON THIS CAR. I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT A HONDA WITH SUCH LOW MILAGE SHOULD HAVE ALL THESE MECHANICAL FAILURES. I AM GETTING NO SATISFACTION FROM THE LOCAL DEALERSHIPS OTHER THAN A VERY EXPENSIVE QUOTES ON REPAIRS.*AK
