1997 HONDA ACCORD LX DIES UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE DRIVING. IT CAN RESTART, BUT DIES AGAIN IN 2 SECOND. CALLED AAA, A HALF HOUR LATE, WHEN AAA TRUCK CAME, THE CAR CAN START WITHOUT THE PROBLEM. AAA PERSON CHECKED ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY, BOTH ARE GOOD. *TR
I PURCHACED 4 NEW EPIC TOUR (LL600) TIRES AND IN LESS THAN A WEEK ONE HAD THE TREAD PEEL OFF WHILE ON THE FREEWAY. I DID NOT HIT OR RUN OVER ANYTHING PRIOR TO TREAD LOSS. THE TIRE WAS STILL ENFLATED. WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK TOTHE TIRE PEOPLE THEY GAVE ME ANOTHER NEW TIRE TO MATCH THE OTHER 3. IN A WEEK THIS NEW TIRE ALSO LOST ITS TREAD, EXACTLY LIKE THE FIRST. I WISH I STILL HAD THE FIRST TIRE BUT I DO NOT. I HAVE THE CURRENT PROBLEM TIRE AND CAN SEND PHOTOS OR IT IS AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. THE TREAD JUST PEELED OFF AS IF IT WERE A RETREAD. EVERYONE (INCLUDING PROFESSIONALS) THAT HAVE SEEN THIS TIRE THINKS THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL SITUATION DUE TO MANUFACTURER DEFECTS. THE MANUFACTUR
AS STATED BELOW, PROBLEMS THAT I ENCOUNTERED SUCH AS BLOWN FUSE (MAIN CONCERN), DEAD BATTERY (FIXED), AND FAN/AIR CONDITIONER MALFUNCTION (PRODUCES IRRITATING SOUND) MIGHT BE ATTRIBUTED TO THIS WIRING PROBLEM. YOUR 1997 HONDA IS INCLUDED IN THE 1995-97 ACCORD A/C WIRE CAMPAIGN.

I PROMPTED THEM ABOUT THE PROBLEMS THAT I ENCOUNTERED AND THE RECALL THAT WAS STATED IN THE OWNER LINK. I WAS TOLD THAT TH
WAS TRAVELING DOWN INTERSTATE AT THE SPEED OF 70 MPH, THE PASSENGER SIDE INNER TIRE MOLD---THE BLACK PLASTIC TIRE MOLD THAT IS OVER THE TIRE, FELL OFF AT THE SPEED I WAS TRAVELING AND HIT THE PERSON'S CAR BEHIND US. IT CAUSE US TO LOSE CONTROL, BUT WE REGAINED IT. BUT IT DID CAUSE ALL OF THE WIRING THAT IS USUALLY CONNECTED TO THE FENDER PULL OUT. SO WHEN IT FELL OFF IT PULLED ALL OF THE WIRING THAT RUNS MY WHOLE CAR IT WAS DRAGGING ON THE GROUND. IT PULLED MY HEAD LIGHT OUT OF THE SOCKET, IT PULL THE WIRING OUT OF MY RADIATOR. NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE MY WHOLE WIRING IN MY CAR. *JB
