| The trunk door won't stay open on a low slope surface or under slight wind on a flat surface. door lock hit the head on multiple family members head causing bruises on head and headaches for months. i believe the root cause is that the trunk door spring is no strong enough to hold the door under normal use. report the problem to honda in new vehicle survey in 2007, but no response from honda. file a complaint to honda on sept. 2011. honda customer service denied the problem. | |||

| Date of service - 6/15/07 windows engrave number: 273256989 2007 honda accord coupe ex-l purchased from: west hills honda, bremerton, washington to whom it may concern: i am not sure if i received a defective new honda accord, or perhaps a lemon. i have had my car to the dealership over five times already. i have less than 5,000 miles on my car and the rattling problems that i am having on the left side of my interior inside of my car both front and back and the sunroof is nerve wrecking. i want this fix and tired of going back and forth, only being told they couldn't find anything. i am not retarded nor am i hearing rattling in my mind. i am still having excessive rattling inside of my car, each attempt they (dealership) claim they can not pin point the problem. i am not hard of hearing and i hope the tech's are not deaf, because even my passengers complaint about the noises. i just think honda does not want to stand up and correct the problems. i will have no choice but to suit for a defective product. this is a new car under full warranty. i should not be getting excessive rattling in the compartment of the car. i want the dealer to pinpoint the rattling and make it so that the rattling goes away. the interior quality is not good and needs to be taking care corrected this is supposed to be a brand new car. i brought a honda for it reputation of quality, not to hear constant rattling. i am pissed off. i paid good money for this car and should not have all of these problems. *tr | |||
