Wipers Won't Park Due to Windshield Wiper Motor Failure
On certain models the windshield wipers will not park in the proper place or won't shut off. The wiper motor must be replaced to repair this issue.
Vibration When Braking Due to Rotor Problem
The front brake rotors can warp and cause a vibration when braking. The rotors will need to be machined or in cases where they are worn to thin, replaced to correct this issue.

Plugged Moon Roof Drains May Cause Water Leak
Plugged moon roof drains can cause a water leak inside the car, usually over the head of the driver or passengers head when turning a corner. Cleaning the drains will fix this problem.
Low rumbling sound when in Reverse = Bad Engine Mounts
Had to replace the engine mounts at 36k miles ($600! Non warranty repair). It would rattle and growl, usually in the am, when I put the car into reverse. The Honda dealer initially couldn't find anything wrong, but when I had them keep the car overnight and test early in the morning, they identified the Engine Mounts as the culprit. Not too impressed.
Airbag Light Due to Failed Occupant Position Sensor
The airbag warning light (SRS) may illuminate due to a defective occupant position sensor. Honda has a recall campaign to replace defective sensors on affected cars.
Bump Stop in Strut May Make Noise on Turns
On some models the bump stop in the strut can cause a noise on turns. Replacement of the bump stop will fix this problem.

Updated Serpentine Belt For Noise Issue
In some cases drive belt noise can be heard from the passenger compartment. Installing a new updated belt from Honda and rerouting the belt is needed will commonly correct this noise issue.
