"Paint fading and clear coat flaking on many areas"

"Mainly on the roof , paint started to fade, in circle like spots, not entirely covering the whole roof- as the whole surface of the roof being faded at the same time.

Mechanically the car runs very well and the interior looks fine but the paint condition is embarrassing and makes the car look like a piece of junk."

"Rust around rear wheel wells. Small hole in rear floorboard needed repaired to pass inspection. Before next inspection, rear bumper will need replacing due to rust."

"Rust over both wheel wells."

"I had to have two holes patched in the floorboard. The body shop says the rest of the under carriage looks good. I also had to replace the rear bumper reinforcement bar. Also, I have rust progressing over the past 5 years in the fronts of the rear wheel arches. This is not a big deal to me considering the age, but in my state they are telling me that it will probably fail inspection next year. This is *not* structural rust and doesn't affect safety. It is only 1-2 inches in the wheel arch. I drive in other states with safety inspections, and see vehicles in much worse condition than this 16 year old vehicle. I am frustrated by the letter of the regulation regarding this aspect of the safety inspection."

"Ball joints and tie rods and excessive noise. Rough roads and high mileage"

"Requires special tool to replace only at Honda dealer. Shortens actual time from 3+ hours labor to 30 min. But Honda still charges for 3+ hr labor. (negotiated a $100 discount)"

"Yes, this car has been in several accidents through its history, but in the past 12-18 months, I have had the tires replaced, two balances & two alignment services & no one (Honda or independent) can tell me what the problem is"

"dealer said they needed to be replaced"

"the honda dealership charged about 300 dollars to replace inner left tie rod with a cheaper cost after market tie rod ( my decision). I feel this was about 100 dollars more than it should have cost. I would have done it myself but no free loaner tool"

"Broken rear tie rod caused clunking noises. Was repaired by dealer"

"All four wheels were severely out of balance and caused my 2 year old tires to prematurely wear. Backtracked the issue such that I believe the wheel balance I had done when I bought the new tires was improperly done at the tire shop"

"Was told I would need a new bearing soon. Have not replaced this."

"The car started vibrating and making a loud grinding noise as the speed increased without any prior indication, it seemed like a major suspension or tire issue but after having it checked by a mechanic one of the rear bearing was worn out and was a cheap fix."

"The factory-installed alarm system occasional goes off for no reason. The local Honda dealer could not identify the root cause"

"I spent $800 in 2012 to replace the Fuse box assembly because Car alarm was constantly going off at various times of the day and night. Problem subsided for a few months but is now back worse than ever. I cannot lock my doors or alarm will randomly"

"A recall for the windshield wiper motor was issued in 2008 but I did not have it replaced. The windshield wiper motor stopped working on October 17, 2013 and I brought it to the dealer the next day to have the motor replaced for free. I think a defect let rain water get into the motor."

"Broke"

"Very expensive to repair / fix, particularly at this late stage in the car's life."

"This transmission, and the car as a whole was very well maintained (synthetic oil, only driven easily by my wife, etc), and on a more conservative schedule than Honda recommended. When the transmission died, Honda local and national would do nothing about it, even though they have had YEARS of transmission trouble history with the Accord and anything on that or similar platforms, like the Odyssey and some Acuras. I have had multiple Hondas and Acuras, and bought a used Accord for my son that did the same thing. I used to recommend Hondas to everyone, now I do the opposite."

"Transmission failed, vehicle would not move"

"At around 100k, the transmission computer failed, destroying the transmission. We replaced the computer, Honda was gracious enough to give us a new rebuilt transmission. We paid for the install. Since everything was out of warranty since 36000 miles, we were quite happy with Honda's offer."

"Dear old Jenny (our name for our beloved reliable and faithful 2003 Accord) is on hospice care, bless her soul. Along with apparent multiple sensor outages, her transmission cooling system has worn out from old age, causing her to have problems in hot weather (100+ degree dry weather or 80+ if humidity is over 70%). When she's ahaving trouble, she shifts poorly, goes out of gear while running on the interstate, and makes a horrid burning smell. But she does still run, and she still gets us home... but repairing these transmission problems would cost upwards of $5700, while likely still leaving a host of sensor issues to be addressed (and we just spent about $3500 on tires/serpentine belt/rack-and-pinion earlier this year; its time to quit desperate life prolonging measures), so we continue to use her until her last last last breath. (We plan to replace her in December, if not sooner, but shh... don't tell her. she's a good girl.)"

"Finally just wore out so had it rebuilt"

"A spring that assists in the movement of the gear shifter broke. The only way to fix this was to go into the transmission. While there, the mechanic replaced several clutches"

"in need"

"Transmission just stopped working. It would no shift. It did not move at all"

"Transmission was slipping. It was rebuilt"

"It took several days. The transmission had not been shifting smoothly"

"Transmission slipping, delays or not shifting into next gear, required a full rebuild of transmission"

"Honda is fully aware that they had issues with the 2003 Honda transmission it went out and had to replace just out of warranty"

"Shifting"

"It cost more than $2000 - very disappointing for a Honda even though it was 12 yrs. old. I will not automatically buy a Honda again as I've had multiple big issues over the years"

"Quit unexpectedly, stranding me in the country. Third gear clutch disintegrated, clogging filter. Rebuilt with added transmission cooler, $2300"

"It was from a transmission shop recommended by the Honda dealer. Had to go back for adjustments as it was not set in right"

"total failure of the unit, common with this year Honda despite having changed the fluid every 30,000 miles, new installed unit is much better then the original, better shifts, etc"

"this is the second transmission placed in ;this car. Never expected to have this happen with a Honda Difficult to explain the problem with the transmission. The first time it wouldn't shift out of 2nd gear. The second time it was skipping"

"Inaccessible filter was clogged requiring a full rebuild of transmission"

"The Transmission problem was at 80,000 miles, not the last 12 months"

"At 60000 miles we had total transmission failure. Honda dealership and corporate would not admit any responsibility and treated us like dirt. We had an independent rebuild the transmission at a huge cost to us"

"Slipping"

"Transmission needed to be replaced. Very expensive"

"had to have trans rebuilt at 165k miles $3000"

"Transmission started slipping at 90K miles - had to have it replaced with a rebuilt one. Used a private repair shop not the dealer as I trust private repair shops more.Was really unhappy about all this as it's a Honda - but I've since learned this i"

"Car has issues shifting into next gear. Had transmission rebuilt and now problem free"

"Transmission replacement due to bad torque converter"

"Transmission complete rebuild"

"We had problems with the transmission since we bought it used form the dealer who kept denying the problem. It should have been a recall as the car would just stop moving forward in the freeway. Acura Leather seats are perforated which is tearing"

"Payed $4500 to replace transmission"

"transmission would not shift into drive"

"I found through online investigation that the transmission in the Honda 2003 was a known problem this was after I was told by my Honda dealer that it would need replacing. I had them install a brand new Honda transmission not a re-build"

"The door lock on the front passenger door stopped responding to the controls and the key fob. I have to lock and unlock this door manually now. It is a real pain!"

"Front passenger door lock doesn't work as an automatic lock. It works fine manually. I believe it is just the actuator. I have had no reason to dig into the door panel, so have not bothered to figure out what it would take to fix it. Overall not a big deal to me given the age of the car."

"Sometimes the doors lock or unlock by themselves. The remote will unlock all doors, but not lock all of them. It's been very confusing with lots of electronic issues for a long time. The physical lock stem in rear, behind the passenger side) fell all the way down and we can't get it, and can't get a screw on piece to work on the post. Had lots of electronic issues since it was even in warranty, but no one at the dealer could ever find the problems. Very frustrating! I have read on line of others"

"Electric door lock stopped working. I replaced the actuator"

"Rear door actuator had to be replaced. Door locks are currently locking spontaneously when they are supposed to (and used to) remain unlocked, e.g. after unlocking the car and then opening a door"

"No longer responds to the button on the key to lock/unlock door. Problem is not in the key, but the sensory in the door"

"Seat belts do not move or slide as readily as they did before. As originals they probably need to be replaced"

"Cannot adjust driver's seat back - it's in the very vertical position at all times. O.K. for my wife (she's short), but not for me"

"The driver seat does not recline. The control does not respond and this is an added cost to repair"

"Sunroof allows water into channels that drain out the back through tubing. However, if the tube gets full of mud (dirt and then water from rain) the tubing plugs and floods the trunk. Really a poor design."

"Driver's window will not always roll back up."

"passenger window would not roll down"

"The window regulator on the driver's side door is failing and the window will only go down half way. Per the dealer and an independent shop, the recommendation is not to use this window. It needs to be repaired at a cost of approximately $450.00."

"Motor doesn't function to shut windows. This is second time this has occurred"

"Windows do not work.and the doors need a key to open"

"Passenger window would not go down or up. Replaced the motor and regulator myself. Works fine now. Other windows still working"

"I misplaced the documents so I can not be specif as to what and the cost, but I think that some components had to be replaced"

"I-vetec oil control solenoid valve screen was plugged with sludge and would not allow engine to operate above 2500 rpm. It required replacing valve. This was a result of previous owner using low grade oil or not changing the oil often enough"

"Engine has a small knocking and sound and is burning some oil"

"After 17 years, I expected to have some issues. All corrected."

"Both engine mounts broke"

"The engine oil keeps depleting. We think it is burning off. But it makes the car run sluggish"

"Engine oil pan gasket was leaking"

"Oil leak from a seal. Dealer said it was fixed on two occasions, but it continued to leak. Third time it was fixed. Cost was several hundred dollars"

"They said it was in front of car & would be expensive"

"The car used about one quart of oil every 600-700 miles since we purchased it with 185000 miles in 12/2012. Recently a source of the oil leaks was discovered and repaired, resulting in oil usage being nearly cut in half"

"Oil leaking on top, rear of engine. May be Valve Cover Gasket"

"V-TEC solenoid oil leak Valve cover gasket oil leak"

"Oil pan gasket leaking - replaced gasket"

"Oil Pan gasket was replaced at the last service. Should help. I was adding a quart every three months / 3000 miles"

"seals are leaking and need replacing"

"Leaks were so bad , I needed to have the engine rebuilt"

"The check engine light came on and was traced to a faulty oxygen sensor. The car has 4 O2 sensors and one stopped working."

"The check engine light comes on, we take it in, they fix something, we drive it a while, then the engine light comes back on. Then we start again and do that over and over. We have had it to a dealer and non-dealer repair shop."

"Check engine light went on. Took auto to dealer who diagnosed the oxygen sensor was bad. Ordered and replaced. Good to go."

"This car has FOUR O2 sensors and one failed, causing 5 check engine codes. It was an aftermarket product that failed after 6000 or so miles. New OEM part installed; cost twice the money but seems to be working fine."

"the catalytic converter and O2 sensor was replaced twice"

"Had to replace sensor on exhaust pipe"

"both oxygen sensors replaced due to check engine light"
