My 1984 Accord had a leaky steering rack. Honda fixed it once then I
was on my own when it started leaking again. In the end, I just let it
leak and added some fluid every now and then. Glad to see that Honda is
finally going to electric steering.

If you really think Honda should pay for this then you should contact
your regional Honda Office and ask for some consideration. The number
should be in your owners manual.

I have a 2002 (new to me - purchased 3 mths ago) Honda Accord which I took in to the dealer recently & found out it has a steering rack leak - not what one expects on a car with only about 65,000km. Has anyone else experienced this kind of problem with the Accord? My confidence in the car (which has been terrific - I love driving this car) has been shaken by the news of a hefty replacement.
