Vehicle Condition:

You are bidding on a 2003 Honda Accord EX. This have been an awesome car and I must sell now due to a growing family. Honda built these cars to last. All this car knows how to do is go, go, go. My wife originally bought this car used back in 2003 and now it is time to upgrade. It is silver in color with black cloth interior. The vehicle has the wear and tear that you would expect with a car with over 200K miles. There has not been a need for any major maintenance on this car. The oil has been changed every 5K miles. Tires were replaced about three years ago. The vehicle is mainly used for local travel. Due to the weather, the vehicle was in an accident back in 2011 where one of the wheels had to be replaced. You will received all service paperwork with the sale of the car. Each and every day this car starts and is very dependable. This would be the perfect first car for a student or just an everyday vehicle. Keep in mind this vehicle is still being used, so the mileage will increase slightly. If you are a local buyer, I can arrange a test drive and (or) vehicle inspection.

The Ugly....Remember the car has over 200K miles:

  • Headlight covers faded/oxidized and can be cleaned
  • Rear bumper has some scratches
  • Passenger side rear door is scratched and molding has come off (due to my wife getting too close to the side of the garage. I rubbed out most of the scratch and the molding can be located in a junk yard or ordered. Door and window operates fine. (pictured)
  • Backlight of the radio and heat controls is out.. So it does not light up at night.
  • Black seats are faded in a few areas
  • A few paint chips here and there, nothing major

History:

To my knowledge, I am the second owner of this vehicle. It was a new car trade-in and purchased used from a car dealership in Texas, when it had about 30,000 miles. Always well maintained and garaged kept.

Extras:

I will add in a few bonuses to the lucky winner. I will fill the tank with gas and have the vehicle cleaned and interior seats steamed cleaned. It just received an oil change about three weeks ago.

Peace of Mind:

I am not new to this process., as I have bought and sold vehicles on E-Bay for yes. I have successfully sold all of my previous vehicles on E-Bay to include a 1993 Ford Taurus, 1997 Toyota Camry, and a 2005 Infiniti QX56. Feedback has always been positive and there have not been any complaints from previous bidders on the accuracy of my ads and the condition of the vehicles. All paper work will be in order and the transaction will be professional. The only reason I am choosing to sell this great vehicle is due to a growing family. Time to upgrade. Good luck bidding and feel free to reach out if there are any questions.

Shipping & Payment:

The cost and arrangements of shipment will be the buyers responsibility. A deposit of $500.00 is required within 48 hours of auction close. I will accept payment in the form of cash, certified funds, PayPal, or credit cards (via I-Phone Swipe app.) Payment must be received and vehicle must be picked up within 7 days of auction close.

NHTSA investigating 343,000 Honda Odyssey minivans

Sat, 06 Jul 2013

The recall bug could strike Honda again as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has opened another investigation concerning the Odyssey minivan. Honda has already recalled 59,000 Odysseys from the 2012 and 2013 model years due to a shift interlock issue, and another 320,000 of the minivans from 2003-04 are being investigated for faulty airbags. Now, TheDetroitBureau.com is reporting that NHTSA is taking a look at the 2007-08 Odyssey for a problem associated with the brakes.
This investigation reportedly includes 343,000 Odysseys that could be suffering from an unexpected application of the brakes. According to the article, at least 22 people have reported such an issue, and in five cases, dealers found a trouble code associated with the steering angle sensor - part of the anti-lock brake and stability control systems. There is still no indication as to whether or not this will become a recall, but Honda has already recalled more than 1.8 million units this year.

Takata airbag victim urges consumers to head to the dealership

Wed, Aug 3 2016

A man who lost an eye in a low speed collision due to faulty Takata airbags is urging the owners of cars with recalled parts to take their vehicles into a dealership, before it's too late. The public service announcement comes from ConsumerWatch.com. In a video, the consumer rights website gives factual information about the recall, and adds a personal plea from Corey Burdick. The Florida man lost an eye due to shrapnel from an exploding Takata airbag. The Orlando Sentinel reported that Burdick was traveling just 15 mph in his Honda Civic when he collided with another car. There were no other injuries caused by the crash, except for the loss of Burdick's eye. He filed a lawsuit against Honda and Takata this year. "I lost my eye because of a defective airbag. Take your car in today so this doesn't happen to you," Burdick said. ConsumerWatch.com told Honda and Acura owners not to drive their vehicles until the faulty airbags were replaced. Good advice, as the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration also recently advised owners of 2001-03 Hondas and Acuras to get their airbags replaced immediately. NHTSA says airbag inflators in those vehicles have up to a 50 percent chance of exploding in an accident. But replacing the airbags isn't as easy as simply going into the dealership. Many owners who take their cars in for replacement are finding out that new parts are in short supply as manufacturers grapple with the largest automotive recall in US history. Takata may not have enough replacements until 2019, CNN reported earlier this year. The problem is so pervasive that some brand new cars were found to be sitting on dealer lots with faulty airbags still in place months after the initial recall. Some cars have received replacements that were also faulty and now will require a second trip to the dealer. However, waiting is not an option for many owners. At least 13 people have been killed and over 100 injuries have been blamed on the airbags.
