On my 1994 honda accord the gas light has failed to come on since it was purchased around 25,000 miles. i recently purchased this car from a close friend and it continues to be faulty. this is an issue because when the tank registered around 1/4 tank the car died, leaving me stranded and this is common to every 1994-97 honda accord i have come into contact with. this is an issue that needs to be resolved as it could leave others stranded in more drastic circumstances. *ak | |||

The car pulls towards the left very strongly and you need to apply force to keep it straight. i got all of the wheels aligned, but it didn't have any effect. the exhaust system makes unnecessarily lot of noise, the gas indicator does not show the full indicator. the trunk hydraulic opening system doesn't work properly even though the dealer replaced it under teh warranty, still it is the same problem. *ak | |||

I was recently denied assistance in the repair of what i consider a safety concern on the 1994 honda accord. the fuel gauge malfunction is a safety related concern. i learned the bulletin pertaining to this wasnt released until 1995. when the dealer was called during the first months of owenership to ask if they were aware of any concern with the fuel gauge not reading properly naturaly they said no. because of this the car was never bought into a dealer for repair. here are excerpts from my letter to honda: re: vin # 1hgcd5650ra060113 my fianc | |||
