I've been told that my car is unsafe to drive and unable to pass inspection because the rear subframe is corroded at the suspension mounting points which might cause the rear suspension to fail.

When the vehicle was recently brought in for annual PA state inspection, I was informed by the inspector that there was so much corrosion where the rear trailing arms attach to the subframe that the rear wheel on either side could suddenly collapse leading to a sudden and unpredictable loss of vehicle control. I then brought it to an authorized Honda dealership for their inspection. They produced a short video confirming that the car was unsafe to drive. Still shots from their inspection video are included with this complaint. I then consulted with a well-regarded body shop who confirmed that the car was unsafe to drive and that it probably could not be repaired. I believe that the 2010 Honda Insight rear subframe is very similar to the 2010 Honda CR V rear subframe which was recently recalled for exactly the same issue: Part 573 Safety Recall Report 23V-228

The contact is a police officer with the Florida Highway Patrol. The deceased owned a 2010 Honda Insight. The vehicle was at a stop sign attempting to traverse an intersection.

The deceased was transported by ambulance and pronounced dead at a trauma center. The air bag was identified as a Takata air bag, and following an autopsy, one metal fragment from the inflator was found lodged in the deceased's chest.

AND THIS HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS AS YOU CAN CHECK IN THIS LINK: HTTPS://WWW.INSIGHTCENTRAL.NET/THREADS/STEERING-HANDLING.21905/ SO IF YOU LEAVE IT IN A DEGREE IT WILL STAY LIKE THAT. YOU CAN MAKE A CURVE BY SETTING THE STEERING WHEEL IN THE ANGLE AND THEN LETTING GO OF IT AND IT WILL NOT MOVE. THIS HAS A RANGE, IF YOU MAKE A 90 TURN IT WILL COMEBACK NEAR TO CENTER AFTER THAT. NOT FULLY. FOR ME THAT I'M USED TO ALL THE CARS TO RETURN TO CENTER IT FEELS PRETTY WEIRD AND I'M ADJUSTING THE WAY THAT I'M USED TO DRIVE. THAT'S WHY DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY COMING BACK HOME FELT SO UNSAFE.

AS I WAS GOING TO PARK MY 2010 INSIGHT INTO A PARKING SPOT BETWEEN TWO CARS, THE CAR SUDDENLY LUNGED OUT OF CONTROL HITTING THE CAR ON MY LEFT, THEN PROCEEDED TO SLAM INTO A METAL BARRIER IN FRONT OF THE SPOT, THEN FLEW UP ON THE RIGHT SIDE AND SLAMMED DOWN ONTO THE CAR ON MY RIGHT. I HAD NO USE OF THE BRAKES OR CONTROL OF THE CAR. THE METAL BARRIER BROKE THE CAR FROM MOVING--HAD IT NOT BEEN THERE MY CAR WOULD HAVE DROPPED TO THE LEVEL BELOW ONTO PARKED CAR--IT COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL. I LIVE IN CA AND THIS IS DEEMED MY FAULT--ALTHOUGH IT WAS BEYOND MY CONTROL. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND FOUND ON ONE WEBSITE THAT 17 CONSUMERS EXPERIENCED A SIMILAR ACCIDENT/ISSUE. THERE HAVE BEEN NO WARNINGS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WITH HYBRID VEHICLES--EXCEPT THE TOYOTA RECALL. THESE CARS ARE AN ENDANGERMENT TO THE THE DRIVER, AS WELL AS OTHER DRIVERS AND PEOPLE IN THE VICINITY OF THE CAR IF THEY ARE WALKING NEAR IT. HERE IS A GOOGLE DRIVE LINK OF PICTURES FROM THE SCENE: HTTPS://DRIVE.GOOGLE.COM/DRIVE/FOLDERS/1M1WKRXOOCXHKIRZNU0FEDKIEZ7GKBY28 PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS INCIDENT IS COSTING ME THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS AS WELL, I'M CURRENTLY NOT WORKING AND BECAUSE OF MY FEAR OF THE CAR I NOW HAVE TO GET A NEW CAR, MY INSURANCE RATES BECAUSE OF THE ACCIDENT WILL BE 4 TIMES WHAT IT WAS AND I HAVE MY DEDUCTIBLE TO FIX MY CAR WHICH HAS $3300 WORTH OF DAMAGE.

THE INFLATORS WERE REPLACED 3/24/16 AND 7/29/16. ON 7/5/17 MY SON WAS HIT BY A MAN RUNNING A RED LIGHT. TO MAKE A LONG STORY SHORT, MY SON SUFFERED NUMEROUS INJURIES INCLUDING BEING KNOCKED OUT BY THE AIRBAG AND CONTINUES TO SUFFER FROM THE CONCUSSION - I KNOW THE OLD AIRBAG/INFLATOR WOULD HAVE BEEN WORSE. ALSO, THE SEATBELT BRUISED HIS CHEST AND THE DOCTOR THOUGHT HE HAD HEART DAMAGE. ECHOCARDIOGRAM SHOWED EVERYTHING WAS FINE - JUST BAD CHEST BRUISE. MY CONCERN IS THAT EVEN THOUGH THE INFLATORS WERE REPLACED THEY, THE AIRBAG/INFLATOR, STILL CAUSED DAMAGE. 14 MONTHS LATER AND STILL HAVING ISSUES WITH TBI. MY SON IS 5'11" AND SITS AS FAR BACK AS POSSIBLE WHEN HE DROVE THE CAR. I'M SENDING 2 PICTURES SO YOU CAN SEE THAT THE CAR WAS DESTROYED. THIS IS JUST AN FYI.

TAKATA RECALL, I HAVE TWO CAR SEATS FOR MY SON AND DAUGHTER IN THE BACK SEAT OF THE CAR WHICH MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR US TO FOLLOW HONDA'S SUGGESTION TO NOT ALLOW PASSENGERS IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT. HONDA HAS STATED THAT THEY ARE NOT PROVIDING RENTAL VEHICLES. I'VE CONTACTED HONDA ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND BEEN GIVEN A CASE #. HOWEVER, IT HAS NOW BEEN 4 WEEKS SINCE MY INITIAL REQUEST FOR A RENTAL CAR WAIVER FROM HONDA AND NO ONE HAS RESPONDED TO MY CLAIM. UPON CALLING HONDA ON THE 11TH OF AUGUST, I WAS TOLD THAT NO ONE AT THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTER COULD ACCESS CASE FILES. SO, NOW I CAN'T EVEN GET AN UPDATE ON THE PROGRESS.

Investigations

1 NHTSA investigation on record

Investigations are agency reviews, not findings that a vehicle is defective.

Pedestrian alert sounds

NHTSA received a petition on or about July 18, 2022, requesting that Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) 141 be applied to all electric and hybrid vehicles operating in the United States. The petition can be reviewed at NHTSA.gov under ODI Number 11486072. FMVSS 141 establishes performance requirements for pedestrian alert sounds for motor vehicles. The standard applies to hybrid and electric vehicles that have a gross vehicle weight rating of 4,536 KG or less or are defined as low-speed vehicles. The standard became fully applicable to all such vehicles manufactured on or after March 1, 2021.On January 27, 2023, NHTSA opened Defect Petition (DP) 22-005 to evaluate the subject matter described in the petition. On June 24, 2023 and as supplemented on June 25, 2023, the petitioner notified NHTSA he was withdrawing his petition. The petitioner indicated that, based on his review of data, there is no justification for asserting potential benefits that could be derived from actions sought by my petition. Based on the petitioner's withdrawal, DP22-005 is closed. Closure of this DP does not represent a determination by NHTSA regarding the subject matter of the petition.
