Exposure of the aluminium negative terminal to the electrolyte can cause a chemical reaction, leading to material degradation around the electrical connection. This compromises the connection's seal and can cause an electrolyte leakage. This can lead the terminals to crack, rendering the vehicle inoperable due to electrical failure. If the battery remains live, a spark can occur, posing a risk of a vehicle fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
A reduction in the amount of grease in the steering gearbox during use results in dangerously fluctuating torque during steering. This can create a loss of vehicle's control and increases the risk of accidents and injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.

ON JANUARY 23, 2010, I WAS INVOLVED IN A SINGLE AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT, ON HIGHWAY 111, IN INDIAN WELLS, CA. ROADS WERE WET THAT DAY. I RECALL MY VEHICLE HYDRO-PLANING AND SPINNING OUT OF CONTROL. THAT IS THE LAST I RECALL, AS I BELIEVE I WAS KNOCKED UNCONSCIOUS, I AWOKE MINUTES LATER TO FIND MYSELF STILL IN THE DRIVERS SEAT, TO FIND MY BACK SEAT ENGULFED IN FLAMES. I MANAGED TO FREE MYSELF FROM MY SEAT BELT AND GET OUT THROUGH THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW. AS MANAGED TO GET ON MY FEET I WALKED AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE JUST IN TIME FOR IT TO EXPLODE.. O MY NEXT CONCERN IS AS DOING SOME RESEARCH AFTER THE ACCIDENT, I CAME ACROSS SOME INTERESTING INFORMATION REGARDING A RECALL ON THAT TYPE OF VEHICLE. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN JUNE 2008, AND RECALL LETTERS WERE SENT OUT ON OCTOBER 2008. I NEVER RECEIVED SUCH A LETTER. I AM CONCERNED TO WHAT CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO CATCH FIRE AND EXPLODE. I CONTACTED A HONDA MTG. COMPANY, AND SPOKE TO A CASE MANAGER AND OPENED A CLAIM. ON MARCH 31, 2010, I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM HIM, AND HE SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON SUCH VEHICLE. MY PERSONAL OPINION, HE CAME TO THAT CONCLUSION BASED ON A LIST OF VIN NUMBERS., NO INVESTIGATION WAS DONE AS FAR AS CHECKING THE VEHICLE OR TAKING THE TIME TO FIND OUT IF MY VEHICLE WAS JUST ONE THAT WAS BYPASSED AND NOT PUT ON THE VIN LIST. I PERSONALLY DO NOT FEEL THAT THEY PUT MUCH EFFORT IN FINDING OUT WHY MY VEHICLE EXPLODED. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A BALANCE, MEDICAL BILLS, AND NO VEHICLE. PLEASE HELP ME IN THIS MATTER, FOR I FEEL THIS MATTER WAS NOT TAKEN SERIOUSLY. *TR

The contact owned a 2008 Honda Civic. The contact stated that while in the right land, making a right turn, a bicyclist was coming towards the front passenger side of the vehicle however, to avoid injuring the bicyclist, the contact merged over the lane divider and hit the ground with force. The contact then stated that all the driver’s side air bags failed to properly deploy. The contact stated that the steering wheel cracked, and air bag inflator deployed from the steering wheel and the airbag deflated. As a result, the contact sustained injury to the chest and her lower back. Medical attention was required. A police report was filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The vehicle was towed to the contacts residence then towed to a tow lot and deemed a total loss by the insurance. The dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.
I believe the airbags should have deployed. Maybe its a sensor thing as well because a while back my side airbag light would go on and off but it stopped. Anyway the ending of the crash, I lost control and smacked into a rail head on. Also causing my face to smash into the wheel busting my lip. Required stitches. Everyone. The tow people and police report thought it was undrivable. Because the frame was bent on the hood. My bumper was hanging on to the screws on the front so both sides were dragging. Radiator bent in half because that metal bar, behind the front bumper, bent into it.

On wheels without pressed-in hubs made of alloy steel, the tightening torque of the wheel nuts is too low and could cause the nuts to come loose while the vehicle is in motion, resulting in a risk of wheel loss, accident and injuries. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
Due to a problem during the production process, the vibration of the engine can cause cracks inside the high-pressure fuel pump. This may lead to a fuel leak, increasing the risk of fire. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
Due to a faulty circuit board in the passenger seat weight sensor, the passenger seat’s occupant detection system may identify a Steering Wheel Sensor (SWS) error and the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS) warning light could switch on. This can cause a faulty triggering of the airbags, creating a risk of injuries for a child occupying the passenger seat. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
The fuel pump impeller's defective molding can cause the impeller to have low density, which can lead to cracking. This can result in the impeller absorbing too much fuel, deforming, and potentially causing the fuel pump to fail. This failure can lead to the engine stalling while driving or failing to start, creating a risk of accidents and injuries to vehicle occupants. The product does not comply with the Regulation on the approval and market surveillance of motor vehicles and their trailers, and of systems, components and separate technical units intended for such vehicles.
