Passenger and both rear windows failed at the same time. No switch on any door (including the driver's side) will raise or lower the windows. When the switches are depressed, a clicking sound is made.

Tail lights stopped working, passenger and both back windows wont roll down...from forums I've read this is common. Honda needs to issue a recall and fix this for everyone!! also anyone else have to replace wiper linkage due to the excessive windshield wipers when they slam down, they've done this since bought the car off the lot brand new!

None of the windows will roll down checked fuses and was told there is no problem except windows not rolling down is a major problem in case of a wreck to where someone would need to get out of a window have children who need to have windows rolled down for ventilation because of car sickness I have read that many of these Honda have this problem why has this not been addressed through the recall system
Cold air no longer coming out from drivers side vents looking online this appears to be common for the Honda Accord but does not appear to be a recall why?
Official NHTSA page concerning recall #12V222000. While driving, my car's electrical system is making noise behind the steering wheel, my power steering fluid leaks, and my I got a check engine light with a catalytic converter issue. I think it's related to this recall. On a city street. Or the electrical system ticks or whines when I turn the car on.
Takata recal my ABS, tcs, break and exclamation mark is lit up on my dash bored and stays on after the engine starts and doesn't turn off until I turn the car off every time I drive no matter where I go.
I have been in and replaced my airbag sensors 3 times with the recall. After the 2nd or 3rd time I was in for the recall the lining of the roof of my car has completely fallen in and makes it impossible for me to see out the rear view mirror. I have included a picture of the roof of my car as it looks now. I should have video of the transition of events but I think my external hard drive has crashed completely. I have been in to Honda of concord in North Carolina where they have told me there was nothing they could do as far as repairing it for free and I would have to pay. Why has no one looked at a computer glitch as the culprit for the airbag sensors automatically releasing air? something has to trigger the sensor to start slowly releasing air, as I was told at Honda of South hill, Virginia where I originally had my sensors replaced for the recall.

The passenger windows suddenly failed to operate either from the driver control 0R the passenger control. All fuses and relays checked out. I have goggled the problem and have found that other Honda owners of other models have reported the same problem.it was concluded by many that the culprit was the master control switch.. some jury rigged the system others paid $500 to replace the switch. T.he vehicle was parked with the engine running when the problem was first recognized.
Passenger and both back windows just stopped working. From what I have read in the public forums there are thousands of Honda Accord owners with the same issue. It is the child safety lock on the driver side door that is the issue.
This is the third door lock actuator on this car that has failed. I know there was a class action against Honda for later model year actuators but it did not encompass 2006. The safety problem is that if a person wanted to get out of the locked car in a hurry the electrical lock and unlock button wouldn't unlock the car. The first failure occurred to the left rear door lock actuator replaced under warranty, then in 2009 the right rear failed and now in 2015 the right front failed. I think because of the frequency of failure there is a design problem possibly an extension of the design problems that lead to the later model class action lawsuit for lock actuator failures.
I was traveling at the speed of 35 mph in low traffic when I hit a small bump and my car lost all power. All the lights on the dash came on and steering became really tight. I drifted to a stop and switched the car off then on. It restarted and the check engine light was on. The light then went off. Two weeks before this the car cut off as I was backing out my driveway. The check engine light came on and I took it to tires plus the technician found the check engine light to be a computer error. This is really dangerous. Its seems as if the car is design to cut off as to alert me something is wrong; however, that would be great if it cut off before it is put in gear. Once I start moving this puts me in great danger of being ran over and killed. The out come of this design could be fatal for me and many more experiencing this. Walsh Honda of macon, ga also found the codes to be erroneous.

While driving the check engine light and vsa light came on, the car started to slow down stepped on gas pedal no response, no power, and could not go over 20 mph. Took car to my repair shop, they told me that it is a glitch in the accelerator pedal sensor. Once they cleared the code from the computer the car ran fine, they told me it could happen again, and they would have to replace the sensor.
On Saturday 3/8/2014, I was driving my mom to a local nearby lowe's. she was sitting in the passenger front seat with the seat warmer on. She mentioned that the seat was really hot & she then turned the seat warmer off. After we got home & she got out of the car, I noticed that part of my passenger leather seat was melted.
Driving to work, I had the heat on. My son told me it was super cold and asked me to turn the heat up, no heat was coming out it was on full blast cold ac on the passenger side only. So I ended up turning the heat off and we both sat in the cold. This happened for about a week straight and then it got warmer and I haven't had to use it since. I've had to replace the brakes twice since owning it only since 2009. I also had the smoking coming out of the engine (power steering recall) - got it fixed by Honda only after my mechanic contacted them for the part - then they were told about the recall that I was never informed of. This weekend 7/28/13 I had to replace my Honda battery yet again after getting stranded in another city and the dealership was closed - this is the third time in 4 years. Something is terribly wrong with the electrical system. Taking my car to the shop this afternoon.
