#2062 of 2179 Re: The Joys of Honda VCM [thegraduate] by yuka Feb 09, 2009 (3:47 am)
Replying to: thegraduate (Feb 08, 2009 9:40 pm) It is the PART of the wheel that is the issue - I understand if I park too close I will scrape the rim where the bead of the tire is. I am tlkaing about scarping the SPOKES of the wheel that sitck out farther than the rim. You don't even have to be that close to the curb to do it - and yes, the design IS defective. This is the only car I have ever owned in my 40 years of car ownership that has had this problem, including many Hondas. It vcame up in the Edmunds long term road test and was commented on earlier in this thread. Replies to this message: pat (Feb 09, 2009 5:58 am)

Replying to: yuka (Feb 09, 2009 3:47 am) Yes, it did come up here earlier, but since this topic is about the VCM, let's take any further discussion of design flaws to one of the more general topics in the Accord group.   Thanks!

You know there are people here on the site that have not had the issues with the VCM and the vibration and you may be one of the lucky ones, but for the ones that are experiencing this issue and our frustration it would be nice that you would let us discuss it here on this site. If you don't have a problem with your vehicle then there is no need for you to put in your two cents worth.......Not all cars are perfect and obviously there are quite a few of us that have gotten these NOT PERFECT vehicles. I do not find this vehicle a comfortable drive, actually I am quite tired by the time I end my drive from the vibration, and having to fight with the steering wheel to keep it on the road......This is the owners wife making this post and I am very frustrated with this vehicle. I find that Honda is just giving the run around in the hopes that you just give up. I work in Customer Service and have for most of my life and I must say that Honda's Customer Service is extremely lacking...If I responded the way that they have to my customer's, well let's put it this way I would be unemployed by now. This has been a continual problem with the vehicle and Honda should have taken this vehicle themselves and resolved the issue. Like I say very very poor Customer Service.

#2071 of 2179 Noise and vibration at low speed by jbhansen Feb 24, 2009 (12:23 pm)
As I've reported before in this forum, the only issue I've had with the VCM V6 is a whine and throttle pedal vibration around 1300 RPM and 20 mph. I took delivery the last week of December '08 and the car currently has 1560 miles on it.   I took the car over to the dealer (Goodson Honda North in Houston) this morning to have the above mentioned problem checked out. The technician acknowledged the sound/vibration and he checked all the active engine mounts. Everything came back normal. Apparently, the sound/vibration is indeed endemic to this vehicle. My service adviser said she would keep an eye out for service bulletins related to this issue, but other than that, I was told nothing could be done.   For me personally, this is just picking nits. I can definitely live with this. It really doesn't bother me that much and I just wanted to make sure that nothing else was wrong. Replies to this message: thegraduate (Feb 24, 2009 9:25 pm)
