CarComplaints.com Notes: The 1999 Honda Accord suffers from widespread transmission failure, subframe rust, engine shuts off while driving, & peeling paint. We recommend avoiding this model year like the plague.
The transmission begins slipping & eventually has to be replaced, typically soon after 100,000 miles & with a repair cost of over $2,000.
Subframe rust near the front passenger side wheel has become a problem recently, due to the poorly positioned A/C drain hose directly above that area. Repair cost to the subframe is over $2,000.
Engine stalling while driving in the 1999 Accord is typically caused by a defective ignition switch -- inexpensive to repair (under $200) but dangerous.
Peeling paint has also been an issue for these Accords. Most of the complaints are with darker paint colors -- especially green & blue.

My Honda Accord airbag on the driver side deployed without any warning while driving. The car has never been in any accident. Honda did an electrical system check, according to the senior service manager and found NO problem with it. Had no idea why the driver bag deployed. The driving speed was less then 20 mph as I made a left turn from a stop light, 10 seconds after the turn that's when the driver's bag deployed. Honda want me to file a claim with the insurance company. I believe there is more defective driver's airbag out there.
