MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD CROSSTOUR WAS LOW IN OIL BUT THE ENGINE OIL LIGHT NEVER CAME ON TO WARN ME. HOWEVER THE ENGINE LIGHT DID COME ON. I HAD OIL AND TOOK IT TO DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHICH WAS NOT DUE. THE DEALER DID NOT WANT TO RESET THE ENGINE LIGHT. THE ENGINE LIGHT ERROR CODE P3497. SEVERAL HONDA CAR OWNERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE P3497 ERROR CODE STAYING ON. THIS IS COSTING CONSUMERS A LOT OF MONEY TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC ON THE ERROR CODE AND REPAIRS. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. FRUSTRATED HONDA OWNER.

STARTED EXPERIENCING A VIBRATION A WEEK AGO 05/02/2017 WHEN INITIALLY PULLING OFF FROM A STOPPED POSITION. THE VIBRATION LASTS FROM 20 TO 50 MPG AND CAN BE VIOLENT IF ACCELERATING WHILE TRYING TO GET STARTED WITH THE REGULAR FLOW OF TRAFFIC IN A METROPOLITAN CITY. I HAVE READ OTHER REPORTS AS WELL ON OTHER SITES SUCH AS: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COMHTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/ACCORD_CROSSTOUR/20I0/DRIVETRAIN/. THE PROBLEM IS GOING TO GET WORSE IF NOT TO A POINT OF BEING UNSAFE. HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THE PROBLEM AND HAVE THE CUSTOMER TAKE THEIR VEHICLE TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP FOR AN AXLE OR WHATEVER PART IS NEEDED UNDER A RECALL REPLACEMENT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. HONDA IS A GOOD PRODUCT AND THIS IS MY THIRD VEHICLE WITH THEM. HOPEFULLY THE WILL STAND BEHIND THEIR PRODUCT AS THEY ALWAYS DO.

I BOUGHT THE CAR USED WITH APPROXIMATELY 23000 MILES; IT IS STILL UNDER THE FACTORY WARRANTY. I HAD READ ABOUT OTHER OWNERS' DESCRIPTIONS OF "SHUTTER" FROM THE DRIVE TRAIN BETWEEN 20-27 MPH UNDER MODERATE ACCELERATION, A SLIGHT SHAKING FELT THROUGH THE CAR BODY, AND NOTICED MINE DISPLAYED THIS SAME CONDITION. I TOOK THE CAR TO A LOCAL DEALER ON OCT 30, 2012, EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM I WAS EXPERIENCING, AND MENTIONED THAT ACURA HAD ISSUED A TSB CONCERNING A SIMILAR SITUATION. THE MECHANIC STATED THIS TSB DID NOT APPLY TO HONDA CARS. NONETHELESS, WHEN THE DEALER RETURNED THE CAR, THEY HAD APPLIED A TRANSMISSION CONTROLLER SOFTWARE UPDATE; I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS IS THE SAME UPDATE ISSUED BY ACURA. THEY ALSO TURNED THE FRONT ROTORS AND RECOMMENDED TIRE BALANCING. I HAD THEM BALANCED IMMEDIATELY. MY FAMILY AND I TOOK A 4 HOUR ROAD TRIP OVER THE THANKSGIVING HOLIDAY, CONSISTING OF MOSTLY INTERSTATE TRAVEL. I NOTICED THE "SHUTTER" GETTING WORSE, ESPECIALLY ONCE THE CAR WAS WARM, STILL B

PLEASE, PLEASE BACK OFF ON YOUR HEAD REST REQUIREMENTS FOR SAFETY. PLEASE ALLOW THE CONSUMER TO CHOOSE THE POSITION OF THE HEAD REST. NOT ONLY HONDA, BUT FORD, GM, CHRYSLER, ALL MANUFACTURERS ARE CREATING VERY PAINFUL CAR SEATS SINCE 2009 DUE TO THIS AWFUL HEADREST REQUIREMENT. SEATBELTS ARE A LAW, BUT I CHOOSE TO WEAR THEM. MOTORCYCLE HELMETS ARE NO LONGER A LAW, BUT I CHOOSE TO WEAR THEM. NOW LET ME CHOOSE MY HEADREST POSITION. I THINK THESE NEW DESIGNS ARE GOING TO CAUSE FAR MORE INJURIES AND INSURANCE CLAIMS FROM PEOPLE HAVING THEIR HEADS COCKED FORWARD, IN A FORCED IMPROPER POSTURE. I HAD MIGRAINES DUE TO MY HEADREST BEFORE I RESOLVED THIS ISSUE IN MY CAR BY MAKING MODIFICATIONS. I SIT WITH PROPER POSTURE AND MY HEAD IS FORCED FORWARD. THE ONLY CHOICE I HAD WAS TO SIT IMPROPERLY IN ORDER TO TRY TO AVOID THE TERRIBLE DISCOMFORT THIS NEW LAW FORCES ON ME. PLEASE CHANGE THIS LAW. *TR
