I PREPARED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND ENGAGED THE CLUTCH.  THE VEHICLE ENTERED INTO THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 5 FEET WHEN A LARGE POP/THUD WAS HEARD WITH SOME SLIGHT METALLIC GRINDING NOISES.  THE CAR DRIFTED BACKWARDS SINCE I WAS ON A SLIGHT INCLINE.  FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC TO MY LEFT OR BEHIND ME.  I DRIFTED BACKWARDS APPROXIMATELY 50 FEET AND BACKED INTO A PLAYGROUND PARKING LOT ON MY RIGHT.  I PARKED THE CAR AND MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO MOVE FORWARD AND ENGAGE THE CLUTCH.  THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE AND THE CLUTCH WOULD NOT WORK.       I CALLED MY LOCAL AUTO CLUB FOR ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE.  THE AUTO CLUB TOWED THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC.  THE NEXT DAY MY MECHANIC CALLED ME AND REPORTED THAT MY CLUTCH WAS FINE BUT MY LEFT FRONT AXLE WAS BROKEN.  THE MECHANIC REPAIRED THE VEHICLE AND TOLD ME HE REPORTED THE INCIDENT TO HONDA.  THE MECHANIC WAS ASKED IF ANYONE WAS INJURED OR KILLED.  THE MECHANIC REPORTED THAT THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND HONDA TOLD HIM THAT THEY WERE NOT OBLIGATED TO REPORT THE PROBLEM.  MY MECHANIC TOLD ME THAT HE WAS PERSONALLY AWARE OF OTHER OLDER HONDA VEHICLES THAT ALSO HAD BROKEN AXLES.  THE MECHANIC SHOWED ME THE BROKEN AXLE.  THE MECHANIC INDICATED THAT THE RUBBER COVERING OVER THE AREA AFFECTED ALLOWS WATER/MOISTURE TO ACCUMULATE AND CORRODE THE AXLE.  HE NOTED THAT THE NEW AXLE DOES NOT HAVE THE SAME COVERING.  THE MECHANIC FELT IT WAS A DESIGN FLAW AND WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY WARNINGS/RECALLS FROM HONDA.  I HAVE ATTACHED A COPY OF THE REPAIR NEEDED FOR THIS INCIDENT.","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2006","productMake":"HONDA","productModel":"ACCORD","manufacturer":"Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)"}]}]}
