How does the starter work? The starter solenoid receives power from the battery at all times. When you turn the ignition to the start position, it sends an electrical charge to the solenoid, and allows battery power to move from the solenoid to the starter motor. This causes the starter motor to turn the engine's flywheel, forcing the crankshaft to turn until the engine begins running on its own.
2009 Accord Rear Suspension ProblemMy 2009 Accord LX 4 cyl with 56,000 km I bought recently has a very bouncy rear end when going over humps in the road and makes a dull chattering noise from the rear when driving slowly. Not sure if that is the rear shelf or maybe the shocks. The most worrying thing though is when driving at speed on long corners especially on rough road surfaces the back end seems to jump out. Add that to the long wheel base on the car and maybe they all do that? I have never owned an Accord before so your advice would be appreciated.

The Honda Accord class action lawsuit is brought on behalf of all current and former owners and lessees of a 2008, 2009, or 2010 Honda Accord vehicle who paid for a repair related to the defect or for oil replacements beyond what a reasonable consumer would expect.

UPDATE 2: This class action settlement now includes other Honda vehicles, including the Honda Accord, Odyssey and Crosstour.
