2005 Honda Accord Visibility & Wipers Problems

WE LIVE IN HOUSTON, TEXAS AREA. ONE RECENT WEEKEND, MY WIFE AND I WERE IN MY 2005 HONDA ACCORD DRIVING ON AN UNOCCUPIED ROAD (LIGHT WEEKEND TRAFFIC AND NO ONE WITHIN 1000 YARDS). MY WIFE AND I HEARD A HUGE EXPLOSION. WE WERE IN MOTION AT THE TIME AND HAD NO IDEA WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CAR, BUT WE KNEW IT WAS POWERFUL. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE EXPLOSION, WE HEARD A RUSH OF AIR AND WHEN OPENING THE SUNROOF COVER (MOVED BACKWARDS), WE WERE RAINED WITH BROKEN GLASS PARTICLES (ANYWHERE FROM 1MM TO 1INCH). THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED AND THE PIECES WERE VERY DANGEROUS. THANK GOODNESS FOR THE COVER THAT CAUGHT MOST OF DEBRIS. HAD WE HAD THAT OPEN, IT'D HAVE BEEN A CATASTROPHIC RESULT. WE DO NOT FEEL ANYTHING CONTACTED THE ROOF AND CAN ONLY SURMISE THAT EITHER A MAJOR PRESSURE CHANGE OCCURRED, A SIGNIFICANT TEMP CHANGE OCCURRED, OR A STRUCTURAL CHANGE CAUSED THE SUNROOF TO EXPLODE. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN IN ANY SIGNIFICANT ACCIDENTS AND IS IN EXCELLENT SHAPE. THE SUNROOF WAS FUNCTIONAL PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT, BUT USED VERY LITTLE. I HAD TO ORDER ANOTHER SUNROOF AND CUT MYSELF SERIOUSLY WHILE TRYING TO INSTALL THIS UNIT.

WITHOUT WARNING MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. THERE WAS NO ROCK OR ANY TYPE OF EXPLANATION. THE SUNROOF UNEXPECTEDLY EXPLODED WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE.

I PURCHASED MY 2005 HONDA ACCORD LX WITH THE KNOWLEDGE OF THE BACK RIGHT WINDOW NOT WORKING. WITHIN 6 MONTHS OF OWNING THIS CAR, THE PASSENGER FRONT WINDOW AND BOTH OF THE BACK WINDOWS JUST STOPPED WORKING AT ALL. I HAVE TRIED USING THE FRONT MAIN SWITCH AS WELL AS THE INDIVIDUAL SWITCHES TO UNROLL THEM AND ALL THAT HAPPENS IS A CLICK EVERY TIME I TRY TO UNROLL EACH ONE. MY PASSENGER WINDOW IS STUCK HALF WAY DOWN WITH NO WAY TO ROLL IT UP. THE ONLY WINDOW THAT WORKS IS THE DRIVERS SIDE FRONT WINDOW NOW. I HAVE CONFIRMED THAT THE CHILD SAFETY LOCK IS UNLOCKED EACH TIME I TRY TO UNROLL EACH OF THEM. IS THERE A RECALL ON THIS KIND OF DEFAULT? *TR

HONDA 2005 ACCORD EX: MY POWER WINDOWS WILL NOT ALWAYS FUNCTION. WINDOW WILL NOT GO DOWN WHEN SWITCH IS PRESSED. IF IT IS DOWN, IT WILL NOT COME UP. NEITHER DIRECTION WORKS CORRECTLY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ALMOST 5 MONTHS. THIS WEEK THE WINDOW WENT DOWN WHILE I WAS DRIVING BUT HAD NOT PRESSED THE SWITCH. OUR HONDA FIT 2007 JUST RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE. IS THERE ALSO A PROBLEM WITH HONDA ACCORD 2005?

WINDSHIELD WIPERS QUIT WORKING WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN. COULD NO LONGER SEE ADEQUATELY TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE. TAKING TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION. AS A RESULT, SHE NOTICE A LARGE HOLE IN THE SUN ROOF. AS OF MAY 27, 2008, THE DEALER HAD NOT REPAIRED THE VEHICLE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 27,000 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

1. WINDSHIELD WASHER SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY, OR AT ALL BELOW 38 DEGREES. 2. THIS FAILURE MAKES SEEING OUT THE WINDSHIELD HARD TO IMPOSSIBLE WITH SPLASH BACK AND DEICING FLUID ON THE ROADS. 3. I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT HONDA KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM BUT HAS NO SOLUTION. *NM
