What owners wrote

I purchased this vehicle in february 2015 and the issues which I have face are: poor(worn) struts, axle(output shaft) seal leak, vtc actuator which the dealer does not want to honor the warranty defect, and poor motor mounts. In addition, the struts caused one of the tires to pop due to a bump on the tire, and the passenger front tire had to be replaced because of the bump on the tire which again is due to the struts being bad.

Reported at 96,000 miles, October 2014 Crash

I am the owner of a 2008 honda accord 4-door LX-p sedan (automatic transmission), which was purchased in january of 2008. Beginning in december of 2008, I detected an intermittent noise which can best be described as the sound of air moving through a straw when applying the brakes, which was sustained through subsequent acceleration until repeated application and release of the brakes caused the noise to cease.
