anyone with a 1996 accord who hasnt already recieved a recall noticeshould probably go to their nearest dealer and talk. the rear main seal has a defect that it will back out over time and youll lose all your oil. i found out the hard way. if you have already had this happen to you and havent heard anything from honda, then tell them and give them a receipt and they'll reimburse you. anyway,that doesnt really matter because honda still rules.

 

Its not the rear main seal but rather a balancer shaft seal recall..Big difference!
this recall is very important and includes..( but not all )

94-97 Accord
94-97 Prelude
95-97 Odyssey

 

Thank God for HT
i would have never known

 

thanks for the info...sorry that you had to find out the hard way...

 

I have accord 95 v6. Should I go to the honda dealer to check it out? Are the labor&equipment free?

Where's the link to the article?
