Ball joints & NOT tie-rods are responsible for this.

When tie rods pull, steering ceases to function.


Moreover, failed ball joints is NOT a function of bad auto engineering by Honda, but a result of a mass cloned suspension parts, ball joints & C.V Joints in particular, which flooded the Honda market in Nigeria.
Spot on. People fail to realise this!

The ball joint is just N2000....You can use it for 3years before replacement....I hv been using Honda Cars for the past 8yrs....all u need to do is check the arms anytime u go for engine oil replacement...lol

If the ball joint in question is only N2000, then the effectiveness must be low IMO. The CV joint in my Nissan Primera goes for N4500 and is not known to fail as those Honda joints.

My love for Honda eh especially the interior. Honda is a lovely car and what cause the issue is a minor thing that people neglect until it Bleep them up. Ball joint cost a small amount of money to buy and I never experience such thing. Although my first car is Toyota but Honda all the way with great a balancing on road grin.

That's no reason why you should still trust a Honda "EOD" well enough to travel in one and at a considerable speed. The other day at my mechanic's a man who drove one and almost wiped out six folks standing by the roadside when the wheel did "the usual" at a high speed was badly shaken.

Not correct. Toyota 4 runner, Volkswagen products, Mercedes products (rarely), and Hondas.

Nobody talks about Honda Tie Rod, but the Ball Joint. Let's be honest, it peculiar to Honda products, though I feel they're correcting that disaster in these newer models.

I deal on Honda parts, but don't compare Honda with Toyota. They're no match, Toyota is far ahead.

I have driven a couple of Honda's in my lifetime(Prelude, Legend, Accord and Civic), and have never experienced such k leg(abi nah k tyre) deformity in all my ownership years.
If vehicle is throughly inspected, service schedule maintained, original part used and any unusual bangs and rattles investigated and repaired. Such unnecessary repairs can be avoided.
NB: It's not the vehicles fault, but the attitude of the driver or mechanic!!!

Don't pray it happens on high speed, cos it would be rocket speed and delivery above the sky's!!!

this maybe mechanic error, is either a bolt is not properly tied as in case of Toyota! But for Honda? This is normal phenomenon

Op. Honda tie rod don't pull often but rather the lower arm ball joint and upper arm ball joint. Every vehicle has equal tendencies when it comes to the tie rod and cv joint
