2013 Honda Accord 2 DR FWD

Sudden failure of steering wheel. It became extremely difficult to turn out of nowhere. I was parking when it happened thankfully. But turning the car off and on didnt help. It is still parked since yesterday. I haven’t checked to see if the problem corrected itself.

I believe that my vehicle, a 2013 Honda Accord Sport CVT, should be included in this recent safety recall in regards to CV Axles that are at risk of excess rust/corrosion which left untreated could lead to a crash or injury. Safety recall in question (Service bulletin 20-125) - https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/rcl/2020/RCRIT-20V769-5506.pdf Honda of America refuses to look at my case because my VIN is not a part of the original recall. My local Honda dealership did let me know that this recall was issued only for vehicles sold in the Midwest because they are more susceptible to rust and corrosion. I originally purchased the vehicle in Florida (I'm the original owner) in October of 2012. I moved to Iowa in 2015 and am now experiencing the same problems as the safety recall in question. I've had my vehicle inspected by my local Honda dealership in Des Moines IA and they have confirmed that I'm showing the same symptoms as the recall that require a complete CV axle replacement. Because my VIN number was not included in this recall, they are unable to perform any repairs. I've called Honda of America and because of my VIN, they also refuse to even look at my case even though I now live in an area that uses a high volume of salt on the roads during the wintertime. I believe that I am not the only one and others could be at risk if they also moved to an area with a high volume of salt on the roads. I’m concerned about driving my vehicle anywhere because I know that my CV axles are at risk of breaking under load.

Power steering failure accompanied by steering warning light. Vehicle difficult to steer and steering systems seems to be trying to assist in the opposite direction trying to steer. No accidents or damage at this time but seems to pose a dangerous situation. Dealer did not refuse to diagnose but discouraged leaving vehicle for diagnosis until failure was continuous as opposed to the current intermittent failure.

While driving, the steering is intermittently difficult to control and/or lacking resistance. There have been multiple occasions when it takes a great deal of effort (physically) to control the vehicle--almost as if there is a loss of power steering. Conversely, the steering wheel almost spins freely--requiring extra motion to steer the car and making it difficult to control. Of most concern is that the malfunctions occur without warning—resulting in the car drifting toward the adjacent lane on several occasions. Fortunately, I was able to make the correction in time--preventing the car from crossing into the next lane and possibly causing a collision. The local dealer checked the steering on May 20, 2021. At that time, the steering wheel was returning to the home position on its own—while I was driving the car and attempting to turn. The dealer did a diagnostic, performed a sensor re-learn and several other procedures. After exhausting all options, they contacted the Tech Line to inform them that the car was still difficult to turn during the road test. The Tech Line responded that this can be caused by hitting the curb and other driver-related mishaps. Although the adjustments made at the dealership improved the condition, it was clear that the manufacturer didn't provide the support required to resolve the problem. The steering worsened last week to the extent where I felt unsafe driving the vehicle. I took it to a different repair shop, it was inspected, and they recommended that it not be driven until repaired. After doing some research, it was clear that this is an on-going problem that has yet to be corrected by Honda. Currently, the car is parked and I have no transportation.

Steering has becoming increasingly heavy, feels “spongy” , and is pulling to the side when making turns… I am extremely concerned that there is a failure with my vehicle’s power steering that may cause me to lose control or cause an accident.

When going over small bumps strong pulls to one side dramatically, causing car to jerk out of lane

The ABS Module has failed on this car. Upon a lot of research, I have found that a lot of people are stating they have had this same issue with their honda accords within a few years before and after. This is a $1700 fix from Honda that most people are not going to be able to afford and a lot of people are having problems with..... the part is also on a nationwide backorder which to me seems like they have surely had to replace a lot of them..... I believe that this should be investigated for a recall. I spoke with someone at Honda and they also agreed that this should be looked at for a recall. This could be very dangerous to have failing ABS systems on vehicles. Research on forums where people discuss this will show that this is a common problem and a recall should be considered.

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated that several attempts were needed to start the vehicle. The failure occurred intermittently at first; however, the failure was occurring more often. The contact stated that the failure was related to Manufacturer Communication Number: A16-002 (Electrical System). The contact had not taken the vehicle to be diagnosed. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 61,000.

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, he became aware that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact pulled the vehicle over to the side of the road and waited for a few minutes before restarting the vehicle. The warning lights disappeared, and the contact continued driving to his residence however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) modulator needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to the parts being on backorder. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.

Vehicle suddenly turned left on its own, also partial lost of power steering. Even with vehicle parked, it turned totally to the left. There were no dash warning lights indicating a problem I took it to Dean Honda and it was still doing this when I arrived there. The technician said he could not duplicate the problem, and that no code came up. They stated Honda would not pay for the repair unless error code came up. They expected me to simply take the car and I stated that I would not as it was unsafe to drive. They agreed to keep it and try to duplicate the problem which after about a week they did, but still no code appeared. I contacted Honda headquarters who eventually agreed to replace the steering box "as a courtesy" but if it happened again , they would not pay for the repair. While I am happy that they repaired it, I feel that these vehicles should be recalled and Honda is using the "no code" as an excuse to refuse paying for these repairs and this is an ongoing, dangerous defect. This Accord has only 24,000 miles and is in excellent condition and I am the original owner.

The ABS module went out. The vehicle has 80k original miles and less than 10yrs old. I had to spend over $1200 to get it fixed. This a safety issue and definitely needs to have a recall.

Car began jerking to the right while driving. It feels like the power steering is out in 50% of the car.

I placed my car in revers and it began to spin uncontrollably to the left. I was able to, with difficulty, pull it back but it continued to spin once I backed up. Next day when I turned right, the steering wheel suddenly pulled me to the right. It is hard to steer and I was told it is steering Rack failure. Yes it is available for inspection upon request. It is putting my safety and others at risk as I do not know when it will pull to the side. Honda of Concord was able to reproduce the problem and co formed the issue. It was only taken to the dealer which is Honda of Concord. No accident has happened yet. There was no warning. It just happened the evening of 10/7/2021 and again 10/8/2021. On the way to Honda dealership, it pulled when I turned on the way.

Recently purchased car from used car dealer with 84,000 miles. Driven 1 month. 19 yr son was driving straight on 45mph road and power steering turned completely off. He is a newer driver and luckily managed the heavy steering. This could have been deadly if it happened around a turn. Car was turned off at home for 2 hrs and system reset upon start up. Not sure what to do?

While driving under ideal conditions my steering suddenly stopped functioning. I was on Hwy. 190 in Covington, LA which is a heavy traffic area. It was extremely unsettling and frightening. This ordeal, so far, has cost me: Towing charge $85.00, rental car $600.00, estimate on parts, labor and tax to replace the "Electrical Power Steering Control Unit" which Royal Honda mechanic says "FAILED", is $1,170.00. This is the second recall issue I have had with this vehicle. The first was in February, 2021 when the "Starter" failed at my odometer reading of 75,235 miles. It had to be replaced at total cost of over $500.00. WHAT'S NEXT Next!!!!!

The vehicle has an issue with the charging system which has persisted for at least 1year. The vehicle is unsafe to drive because once the battery has low charge, power steering fails and ultimately the car dies/cuts off (which has happened to me while on a public road at least twice). The vehicle has been checked out by my mechanic numerous times but the issue has never been remedied. The alternator (replaced twice), electronic load detector, battery sensor and battery sensor connector have all been replaced. Wiring has also been inspected but there were no problems to report. A check charge system warning stays on, and sometimes the battery light illuminates. I have seen countless complaints about the same issue regarding the 9th generation honda accord online but the dealer does not acknowledge the issue exists in many of these particular model.

Steering wheel jerked to one side (left) without warning

Failure of keyless remote system - Honda Service Bulletin 13-038 System will not respond to keyless remotes and eventually will disable car ignition system. This is a safety for several reasons: 1. The doors can only be opened using the key which is embedded in the keyfob. In case of emergency or for people with disabilities, this is a huge problem. 2. The trunk cannot be accessed unless the door is opened and the trunk released manually inside. There is no key lock to access the trunk from outside the vehicle. 3. The panic button will not function on the keyfob. 4. The car will not start unless the keyfob is placed next to the driver's dash. Eventually, the car will not start at all and the occupants will be stranded. This is a huge issue. The vehicle has been inspected by a Honda dealer and a ticket opened with Honda. Honda now states that they will not help with repairs as the vehicle is past warranty.

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle would not start. The vehicle was not taken to a local dealer. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 54,000.

All of a sudden, without any warning, one day, I turned on the engine of my 2013 Honda Accord and the steering wheel went all the way to the left. I hadn’t even touched it and when I tried to turn it to the right, the steering wheel kept pulling to the left. I had to go to work so I drove like that since my work is not far but I had to keep pulling the steering wheel to the right firmly with both hands, otherwise it would go to the left on its own making it hard to pull back to the right (hard to control). It did it when I was driving and also when I was stopped. It did it again on my way home and a couple of days after that but then it went away all of a sudden just like it came. It now comes and goes randomly but the steering wheel feels stiff either way, not soft like before. The warning lamp didn’t come on so my car apparently looks ok. I had it checked by a mechanic who told me that the car seems fine. He didn’t see anything abnormal when he checked it. I’ve looked it up online and some people have reported the same issues but have been ignored since the lamp light doesn’t come on so it’s like the problem doesn’t even exist. I do feel it’s a safety issue when I’m driving and all of a sudden my car pulls to the left. This needs to be addressed since I’m not the only one with the issue but maybe people don’t know where to report it.

This morning as I pulled out of my parking spot into my driveway, I turned to the left. As I released pressure on the steering wheel to return to driving straight ahead, the steering cycled hard to the right. I thought perhaps loose stone had caused the unusual response, but thought better, slowed the vehicle (under 5 mph), and released the steering wheel. The vehicle pulled hard to the right. I got out and checked for a flat and checked to make sure the wheel hadn't somehow come loose. I decided that the vehicle was unsafe to drive and parked it. While parked, I cycled the steering all the way to the left. When I started to turned the wheel back to the right I could feel pressure in the steering wheel attempting to turn the wheel right. I released the wheel and the steering cycled completely to the right without my assistance. The car was parked on a dry, level surface at the time.

The head restraints cause back pain and injury because they are so far forward. When we confronted Honda about these, they said they are required by you to make them miserable and uncomfortable. Are there any car manufacturers that have found a way around this regulation? Maybe cars manufactured before the regulation took effect? Can you reconsider that maybe this regulation is written to cause more injury than assistance and rescind it or revise it to allow manufacturers to fix YOUR problem?

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated that twice he had experienced sudden loss of power steering without warning while driving at various speeds. The contact had initially taken the vehicle to a dealer where he had the vehicle repaired; however, a few years later, the failure recurred. The contact then took the vehicle to Leith Honda Aberdeen (501 11045, US-15, Aberdeen, NC 28315) where he had the vehicle repaired for a second time. The manufacturer was notified of the failures but offered no assistance. The vehicle had been repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated while driving 30 MPH, she lost control of the steering wheel. The power steering assists warning light is illuminated. The contact veered to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The independent mechanic stated that the electronic power steering control module had failed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who diagnosed that the electronic power steering control module had failed and was a manufacturer’s defect. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the case was opened. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 52,000. The VIN was not available.

I was driving on a road that was curving right, as I’m curving the steering wheel right the vehicle instead went left into the other side of the road.

In early September 2021, my wife was driving our 2013 Honda Accord Sport 2.4L when she stated the steering was pulling itself to the left. It startled her as she was driving in traffic when it suddenly pulled left into another lane. She was able to keep control of the car and brought it straight home. I verified that when my car ignition was turned on, the steering wheel will turn to the left by itself... spinning several times counterclockwise. I also confirmed that there are no EPS error codes or warning lamps shown which seems strange there are no OBD codes. We called the local Honda dealer and they stated there is an issue with the EPS and we could bring in our vehicle for repair. I took my vehicle to the local Honda dealership for the repair of this EPS defect which they originally stated would be fixed free of charge. The dealership confirmed the defect condition on my vehicle and performed the Honda prescribed repair of reprogramming the EPS ECU. However, this did not fix the concern on my vehicle but only lessened the EPS steering force. The dealership contacted Honda directly to request a full replacement of the EPS rack on my vehicle. After about a week of delay, Honda responded and stated that since my vehicle is more than 5 years old, they are declining to replace the steering rack at their cost. They have quoted to me a repair cost of $2,900. This is evidently a mfg defect with the EPS rack system and creates an unsafe driving condition due to steering control. This EPS concern needs further investigation and a recall seems necessary as Honda is only following a programming change which does not resolve all concerns as mine still exists on my vehicle. So now when driving my vehicle, you cannot remove your hand from the steering wheel, or it will steer itself continuously left. Again I feel the vehicle steering system is a critical function and Honda should repair at their cost.

TSB 13-053 has not been honored, no notice was sent recently made aware due to CVT juddering/shaking issues. Needs Throttle Body Replaced and updated software for optimum performance. Noticble mostly start stop or under 15mph.

The driver's side sun visor will not stay in the upright position, sometimes blocking my view of traffic signals or other items, even those below the level of the rear-view mirror. Honda wants $150 for the part. There are may YouTube videos about the problem caused by a failure of a cheap piece of plastic that is prone to breaking. It seems to me that Honda should fix this safety feature as part of a recall.

I was driving on the highway and my car just whipped to right like I was making a u turn .

The car will intermittently lose power steering all of the sudden and jerk the car to the right. On other occasions the car will automatically steering right at a stand still. It is believed to be either electrical or mechanical but involving the EPS and rack and pinion. The vehicle was inspected by a certified Honda technician. My personal safety and safety of others that have entered my car have been at risk any time I am in this vehicle. On most occasions the EPS light would fail to come on when this occured. It may be on one out of every ten times the issues occured. The code that occurs is a visa system malfunction.

On 9/3, I filled up my Accord with gas and went to start my car again. Upon starting, I saw my power steering light had come on. I called my local shop to see if I could take it by there Friday morning and they couldn't accommodate due to the busy Labor Day weekend. So I called the Honda Dealer (Right Honda) in North Scottsdale and was able to schedule a visit for 7:30am on 9/4. I drove my car home on 9/3 and by the time I made it home, the power steering had come back but the light was still on. The morning of 9/4 I get in my Accord to take it to Right Honda... the power steering light was not on anymore and the car was steering fine. Right Honda told me they can't do anything for me since the light wasn't on anymore... that weekend, 9/5, my light comes back on while I'm away from town and I have to drive it back home without power steering, which felt kind of dangerous. I scheduled a time to take it in for service on 9/7 at my local service center, not Right Honda. It is now 9/20 and I'm being told the part I need is on a national shortage. We've been waiting for almost two weeks now and I'm curious how/why this part can be allowed to be on national shortage when it's a defect of Honda's? I've seen there's plenty reports (100+) of the electronic power steering failing in 2013-2015 Honda Accords and I'm surprised they have the replacement part on a national shortage. This is disappointing as a loyal Honda customer.

The power steering failure while driving on highway ( Check Engine, EPS, VSA, Tire pressure 4 lights turn on the dashboard at the same time) , it's suddenly and unpredictable. I keep driving on outside lane prevent any broke down or crash other vehicles. It's hard to control and accelerate . my car just finished the regular maintenance one month ago, and in very good shape. It's very dangerous situation, I decide drive to dealer for check, and report to NHTSA for safety reason. upload the dealer check worksheet page, and will upload more files if needed.

I was driving with my 2 kids after school on Highway 40 West towards exit 192, the car suddenly pulled to the left side without any warning, Though the situation was scary and horrible I managed to stop the car in the grass area between east bound and west bound highway. The steering does a perfect 90 degree turn automatically. I took the car to the nearest Honda service center next day morning (Sep. 14, 2021). They came back with a diagnosis to replace the entire transmission which costs$3,000 plus tax.

Drivers-side CV Axle Broke on 9/8/2021. Lost all drive power on residential street while backing out a driveway. No accident occurred. Was diagnosed by AAA and Service Center as Driver Side Broken CV Axle. No warning lamps, messages or other warnings. Car was in for a full service and inspection at a Honda dealer on 3/8/2021.

The power steering just stopped working in my 2013 honda accord. I am not able to drive the vehicle safely. A mechanic has confirmed this issue. There were no signs or symptoms and no warning lights beforehand. The warning light came on just as the steering stopped working. This occurred in June 2020.

Steering very stiff and pulls towards the right, very hard to turn to left, smelling like something is hot - burning - sensor light is on Took to dealership states rack and piñon needs replaced over $2,000.00 repairs- I would notice when driving on straight highway and let go of steering wheel would pull to right then the burning smell & hard to turn to left all while having to drive my 2 1/2 year old grandson to work & childcare always been satisfied with car very heartbreaking and expensive

Steering feels like it holds when driving in curve and doesn’t want to turn back straight.

Hello, The steering wheel starts puling me to the left without any warning, while i was driving at 20 mph. It almost cause me to crash. Since it happened the steering wheel almost constantly pulls me to the left. My Accord 2013 has only 62,000 miles. I took car to the dealer. Upon inspection found steering gearbox/eps unit has internal failure. Estimate 3258.95. Honda's corporate office does not reply to my complain. Thanks

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while attempting to start the vehicle, the steering wheel failed to turn. There was an unknown warning light illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 125,000.

starter needed to be replaced at around 84000 miles

Engine burns oil excessively. Following the maintenance minder oil change schedule, the oil was under the minimum. Car was at around 83000 miles. Since within 5 year dealership asked to do a oil consumption test but car would be out of 5 yr window by end of it. Eventually this issue led to catalytic converter needed to be changed at 98500 miles due to the buildup from burning oil

Car suddenly began pulling and steering to the right. Have to apply force to steering to keep it straight or turn or correct to the left. Happens when driving, and even when parked the front wheels and steering wheel will pull some to the right, steering wheel turns right on its own. Checked front tire pressure and that's OK, didn't resolve the issue.

Streeling wheel is constantly steering to the left even when the car is stationary.

Steering wheel start puling to the left. It doesn’t stay in the neutral position ( wheels straight). I have to apply unnecessary force to keep it straight or make a right turn. Feels extremely unsafe.No warning signs indicated on dashboard. Planning to take it to the dealership.

Electric powered steering (EPS) just failed on me, fortunately I was able to handle it and take car to secure location.

My car started jerking to the left uncontrollably. For safety reasons I am not driving because I lose control of the steering wheel. Took it to a Honda dealership and they said that I need to replace power steering rack and inner rods. The cost is $3100. This vehicle only has 119,000 miles , this should not happen

Driving on highway with grooved pavement felt steering wheel start pulling to left needed to hold steering very tight to control car. Pulled car into a parking lot and when applying brakes and loosing hands from steering wheel the car pulled left and steering wheel started to turn on own doing a complete 360 degrees or more. Brought car to an auto center to have assessed and was told rack and pinion gear is damaged. The part is on National back order from Honda according to service center. No warning lights or symptoms appeared prior to this incident.

The car has been driving funny for a few weeks. The car will not go into gear.

My power steering dashboard light came on and the steering wheel would barely move. Luckily this happened when I was parked and not while I was driving. Did some research and found that this is an ongoing issue with 2013 Accords. I had to tow the car to the dealer and pay them to replace the computer part that had gone bad. I'm just glad this didn't happen while I was driving. This car only has about 59,000 miles on it.

There was a sudden loss of power steering control. The wheel suddenly turned to the left and was very difficult to return to neutral. We took it to the dealer and there were no diagnostic codes and they "re-set" everything. The problem returned about a week later. Warning lights were not evident in either instance of the problem.

The steering indicator warning light came on and the steering wheel would not turn. Luckily the car was in a parking lot and no injuries occurred. The car was towed to the area's Honda facility and repaired at a cost of almost $3000 dollars. The steering rack was replaced as it is integral with the steering torque sensor and the faulty part.

EPS light randomly comes on and power steering is lost. Took car to Honda in 2019 and the problem seemed to be fixed until about a week ago. Very scary and dangerous!

For several years, the starter has been work sporadically. This started in 2014. It has progressively gotten worse. I cant count on the car to start.

While driving during the week of 07/15/2021, the steering became hard to control and pulled to left very strongly. I managed to get home. The steering was reset and yesterday 07/24/2021 the issue occurred again. Steering wheel is very hard to control and freely "turns" to the left. I cannot drive this vehicle and cannot afford costly repair but this is a true safety issue none the less. It is impossible to control the steering. I drive less than 30 miles per week and rarely go over 45 miles per hour as I use this vehicle for errands only since I retired. I am mortified to think about what could happen if I were on the interstate driving 65 mph!

Power steering torque sensor or steering rack. I see that there is already an investigation for this. I was driving down an off ramp, when the front of my car suddenly turned to the right. I did not feel the car hit anything. I was able to correct it. However, since then there's been something obviously wrong with the steering. When I turn the steering wheel to the left it responds normally, but there is a specific angle at which the wheel vibrates though. If I turn the wheel to the right, the wheel is tense and also has a specific spot where it vibrates. It vibrates at one spot on the first and second spin of the wheel. If I drive straight the car seems fine. None of the dash lights have turned on. The dealer said to replace the steering rack. However, they can't even get the part due to the computer chip shortage. They said it is on back order and the earliest they could get it is in 6 weeks. Their estimate was around $2,700. So now I just don't have a car and if I get forced to trade it in it's value is bad, since it can't be fixed due to the shortage. If they eventually do a recall, I'll get nothing after I sell the broken car.

Battery sensor. Recall fixed it once. Same issue reoccurred on 7/20/21 and it is melting the fuse box making it unsafe to drive

My Honda Accord suddenly started having steering issues. One day I was driving and my wheel suddenly just jerked to the right causing me to almost loose control of the vehicle. As I continued to drive the vehicle over the next month or two the issue became more frequent constantly jerking as I'm driving becoming hard to keep straight and wanting to veer off to the right. Eventually, one day the wheel just completely locked. I brought the car to the dealership to be repaired. After receiving the vehicle back and the repairs supposedly being done the steering continues to suddenly jerk right and the wheel tightens from time to time. These issues caused me to almost loose control of the vehicle several times. A few months after I'd starting experiencing these issues I read that a probe had been opened about similar issues.

Steering suddenly became loose to the right and veered the car into oncoming traffic. Extremely difficult to turn the steering wheel left. Honda dealer states steering gearbox failed internally. There was no warning or warning light and dealer is unable to explain the failure other than it is an “internal issue.”

At about 40k miles since I purchased my 2013 Accord Sport 6 speed MT new, there has been premature starter failure causing me to replace the starter. In addition, the 2.4 L Earth Dreams engine consumes a quart of oil every approximately 1000 miles. I have had honda's in the past and never had to do this on a fairly new car. I also changed my PCV valve thinking it may be faulty. After doing so, I have the same issue. I even complained to Honda several times and expressed my frustration. At about 50% oil life remaining, and if the engine oil is not topped off, the dip stick to check the engine oil will be bone dry. I hope NHTSA will look into the Earth Dreams engine. This mechanic did an excellent Youtube video explaining the issue. https://youtu.be/tZ24wh6eCpE. It is time to force a Honda recall on all Earth Dreams engine before premature engine failure starts happening and Honda blaming customers for not properly maintaining the engine when it is a faulty engine to begin with.

The backup camera display intermittently goes to all black except for the yellow guidance lines that normally overlay the image. The passenger-side camera continues to work normally as do all the other dash displays. This has been happening for a several months. It seems to be happening more frequently now. These are the same symptoms as what triggered the Accord 2018 recall to fix buggy camera software. Without the backup camera display it is difficult to determine how far you are away from objects behind you and lower height objects such as small children are completely out of sight. The rear cross traffic view is also unavailable. Yesterday my wife nearly backed up into a car behind her because the backup camera view was blacked out. The problem occurred twice today. Once while in our driveway and once while my wife was backing out of a parking space. The problem has not been reproduced as it is intermittent.

My EPS (electric power steering light) will randomly turn on making my vehicle incredibly difficult to return. I have taken it into a Honda dealership and have been informed that it is due to faulty EPS unit that need to be replaced. This has put my safety and the safety of others at risk because it makes my vehicle incredibly hard to turn and is unpredictable. Sometimes my EPS works and sometimes it doesn't. I was able to show this issue to a dealership representative at Car Pros Honda El Monte who witness the EPS light on and was unable to turn the steering wheel. This issue first appeared in April 2021 and has been gradually getting worse until now. I have taken this car into the dealership 3 times already, and was finally told about the faulty EPS unit on the third trip.

Same problem described in this article: https://www.consumerreports.org/car-recalls-defects/honda-accords-under-investigation-for-steering-problems-a4542071576/. About two weeks ago it just started pulling dramatically to the right with no warning - no icons lit up on the dashboard. It is such an aggressive pull that I almost went into the highway median a handful of times. Once I turned the wheel a bit to the left it would lessen or stop only to reoccur a short time later. It is at my Honda dealership now and the part is ordered and they said it's under warranty. Amazingly the head technicians didn't know anything about it. I had to google it to find out how big of an issue it is. Anyway, it is real and is a major issue.

Car steering pulled heavily left without any warning and nearly resulted in a head-on collision with oncoming traffic. The steering wheel also turns hard left with no assistance when the ignition is turned on. This is a very serious safety risk and in need of a recall so that Honda can inspect and correct whatever engineering defect is causing this and to preemptively repair the problem before any injuries/fatalities occur

My car’s steering automatically wants to turn to the left. This started a while back and has continued. I have to keep both hands on the wheel firmly to be prepared at all times for it to turn on its own.

The power steering just gave up while I was driving. It made my car shift to one side. It was shaking. I was able to safely bring the car to a complete stop. But I really scared me. I’m glad it was not worst. According to a mechanic is the steering wheel. But they said they are not sure why it happened. I’m reporting this because is very dangerous and could eventually be a fatality. I also notice that there are other people that have had the same problem. I need this to be recall. Is very dangerous.

Loss of steering control

The steering will act on its own, sometimes fighting against the input of the driver. There aren’t any trouble lights on the dash or anything indicating a problem. Sometimes the steering wheel will turn fully in one direction completely on its own. If you don’t have a tight grip on the steering wheel at all times, it can push the vehicle in directions you don’t intend it to go. Has been happening regularly since it started in July 2019.

2013 Honda Accord Sport steering pulling to the right. Not pulling very hard, but am afraid condition will worsen. I understand that you are looking into numerous complaints concerning problems with electric power steering on this model year Honda Accord. I have had tires rotated, suspension and components checked for wear, alignment checked with no problems found. Hope I don't have any severe steering problems that some Accord owners have reported. My issue started about two months ago, about the same time I noticed a low whistling sound coming from the steering column. Don't know if that is related to the steering issue but unusual to have the noise happen at the same time. Thanks.

The contact's daughter owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving at unknown speeds she veered off the road, to the right for unknown reasons and crashed into a tree. The driver received medical attention however, succumbed to her injuries at the scene. There was no report of fire or air bag deployment. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to an independent lot. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was unknown.

The electric steering turns the vehicle without any input from the driver. The car will automatically turn to the left if the wheel is not corrected. This is not a pull left as in a bad wheel alignment. This happens even if no one is in the car and the car is stopped. It makes the car useless to drive because it is so unsafe.

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated while slowing down to making a left turn, the steering wheel independently turned completely to the left. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the electronic power steering (EPS) gearbox to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired but was pending repairs. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 44,618.

On June 10, 2021 while pulling into my driveway the power steering went out on the Honda. The steering wheel spun around and the car made an immediate left turn. Tested car on cul de sac by my house and the steering wheel fights to go straight and pulls hard to the left resulting in immediate left hand turn. When trying to drive, the steering fights to go in any other direction than left and if and you do not have a tight grip, the car will turn left.Took Honda to my independent car repair on June 11. He was able to replicate the issue & told me it was the EPS and should be covered by Honda on extended warranty from a Federal Recall. Appointment made for June 16 at Coggin Honda Orlando and was car towed there on June 15, 2021. June 16, Honda called and said the EPS and outer tire rods were broken. The parts were the parts included in the recall and extended warranty but the car was not showing trouble codes 5301 or 5302 so car was not covered, and they would have to charge me $2,730.25 for the repair. In fact, car was showing absolutely no trouble codes or potential coeds of any kind. Service advisor Gus Ramirez & his boss Fadi Alzeideh both agree the part that is covered under the warranty is the part the needs replaced but their hands were tired due to no 5301 or 02 codes. Case started with Honda Corporate on June 17, 2021. Case number 12296417. It shouldn't matter if there are trouble codes. The steering issue wasn't fixed during the initial recall in 2015 and should be covered now. Had this happened 10 minutes earlier I would have been on the freeway during heavy traffic and people could have been seriously injured. Car was taken into Rick Roush Honda in Ohio for the initial recall on November 11, 2015. Awaiting case manager and decision on warranty coverage from Honda.

During the winter i started having issues with my car the bad battery sensor drained my battery had to buy a new one. Then i find out from Honda that i have a recall on that battery sensor still was having issues with the car going on. Finally got the battery sensor changed and now the starter is not working. This sensor is becoming costly for me first a battery and now a starter. This is ridiculous that i have to keep dishing out money for problems with my car that has to due with a faulty sensor that was recalled.

Steering has a mind of its own. Wanders lanes and driver has no control for several seconds. Have drifted into other lanes while trying to control / steer but no response. This lasts for just a brief time but it's extremely unnerving. Recently the car turned hard right with no notice. Luckily had both hands on the wheel and steering worked enough to pull left before I ran off road. Frankly, I am afraid to drive it. Took the car to local dealer yesterday. They ran diagnostics and test drove but found no issues with steering. I advised that I could not retrieve the vehicle late yesterday but would do so this morning. Several hours after that conversation, having heard that they found nothing wrong, the same rep called me and said "you can't drive this car". He relayed that technician was moving the car from the bay to the lot when the car took a hard right and nearly collided with another car parked in their lot. The tech brought the car back to the shop and up on the rack where they observed the car again make a hard right turn. No one was behind the wheel when this occurred. I just rcvd an estimate for repair ~ $3,700.00. Electronic power steering rack assembly accounts for $3,140.00 of this cost. Alignment & some other diagnostic costs take it up from there.

The 9th generation Honda Accord seemed to have a common issue with premature starter failure and excessive engine oil consumption. My starter failed at around 40k miles. I then noticed after a fresh oil change, and with 70% oil life remaining, my engine is bone dry with no oil and the only reason I checked was because of a low pressure warning light. I have complained to honda that this is not normal. There are no leaks whatsoever. To prevent engine damage, I have to fill in a quart of engine oil for every 1500 miles of driving. I have owned several honda's and never once had any issues like this. I even changed the pcv valve and that did not fix the issue. Honda knows about the excessive oil consumption and refused to issue a recall to replace the piston rings. Almost every 9th generation Honda Accord owner faces premature starter failure and excessive oil consumption. This is not normal and Honda is avoiding this issue and give customers like me the run around to perform compression test etc and adding engine oil for every 1000 miles of driving is normal. I have never heard of such thing unless you drive a high performance vehicle. I hope NHTSA will investigate and force Honda to issue a recall and compensate owners who had to pay out of pocket for premature starter failures.

Power steering shut down twice in two days. Orange warning light came on each time. Problem cleared after engine turned off for a minute or so, but returned after 20 further miles driving. Dealer verified there was an error code, said it would be covered under a warranty, and has kept the vehicle until repairs can be made. Dealer stated that there are many problems like this, and cannot yet give me a date when it will be repaired, or even a date by which they can give me that date!

On a clear, rural, dry blacktop county highway at approximately 10:00AM December 19,2018 while driving at 50 miles per hour I suddenly lost steering control of my 2013 Honda Accord. This was instantaneous causing car to move to the right. When I steered to the left the car over-corrected and drove into the left ditch. My effort to straighten the car caused it to hit the frozen ditch bank parallel to left side of car. Side air bags deployed and car came to rest in adjacent hay field. My T-12 vertebra was broken, among other injuries. Cost to repair the car was $8,802.16. I always thought this was my fault, but recently I have experienced strange and unsettling steering glitches with this car. My spouse has also recently mentioned that he has noticed steering glitches while driving this Honda Accord.

I had called up NHTSA earlier also to report the problem but they said - report that to Honda America. Nevertheless, I'm putting it here. My 2013 Honda Accord that had ~36000 miles on it gave me a hard time; as I was driving on the highway with my family; the power steering gave up, it became super heavy and I almost lost control of the vehicle. Luckily, I was able to get off the highway and save my family. Off the highway, I turned off the engine and started it back; and now the steering was back to normal. As I was not far from home, I drove slowly and carefully back home. On reaching home, I called up American Honda and they said - they never heard of such an issue and nothing could be done as the vehicle was out of warranty. The following days, I called up nearby Honda dealers but could not get anything concrete and so took it to one of the dealers who simply changed the Power Steering Electronic Module and the issue was sorted.

In January 2021 we took in my 2013 Honda Accord into my local Honda dealership because the steering wheel would jolt to the left while driving. It was very unsafe. My husband found information about an extended warranty having to do with the steering. Honda said that the car was not registering the specific code to fix it under the extended warranty so we would have to pay out of pocket which was over $3,000. We had read some comments from people experiencing the same issue but their Honda's fixed the issue. Ours would not. We took it back to our local Honda again and I called the corporation, again Honda said they can only fix this safety issue with payment. We then took the vehicle to a reputable mechanic in town and they too agreed that this issue should be covered by Honda. Our Mechanic outreached to our local Honda AGAIN and a Honda 30miles away and both said they cannot do anything without payment. We were shocked by how Honda clearly knew about the safety issue and concern but still would not do anything without payment and clearly the extended warranty impacted the steering. We had no choice but to pay for the repairs. The day we got the car back from being repaired ($3,772.35 later) we see that NHTSA opened an investigation for a safety recall on the steering! I will be contacting Honda for a full refund.

The effort required to make a turn is very inconsistent and can change abruptly in the middle of the turn. For example, while making a left-hand turn, the steering wheel can, without warning, jerk back to the right. While this has primarily occurred at lower speeds, it has been severe enough that it has almost caused us to not make our turn and as a result nearly run off the road, or into a curb or into vehicle next to us (pulling into a parking spot). To be honest, only good luck can be credited for the fact we haven't gotten into an accident up to this point. As stated before, this issue primarily occurs at slower speeds (< 30 mph), and while we've been fortunate enough that we've been able to recover from the momentary loss of control, if this issue were to occur at higher speeds or in a traffic-dense area, there is a very real possibility of a serious accident occurring. None of the vehicle's warning lights have ever indicated that there is an issue with the power steering system. Out of concern, the car was taken to a Honda dealership where they were able to reproduce the issue and recommended replacement of the entire steering rack and control unit at a cost of several thousand dollars. As we believe that the rack and/or it's control unit have a design flaw that would also still be present in a brand new non-revised rack, we have elected not to replace the rack in hopes of Honda taking ownership of it's defective product and offering a real solution to those of us who are affected by this problem. The vehicle still has the original steering rack and can be made available to the NHTSA to demonstrate the abnormal steering behavior.

Intermittent activation of vehicle stability assist, electrical power steering, and tire pressure monitoring system lights. Diagnosed as yaw rate sensor failure requiring replacement of anti-lock braking system modulator.

Driving 40-45 miles per hour when steering felt unstable. Pulled in to parking lot when steering wheel symbol came on, car was very hard to steer at this point. Total loss of power steering. No damage or injury.

Car pulls to the right, actually will jerk the steering wheel out of your hands. Only at low speeds and very intermittent. Dealership said I must have hit something and I didn’t. Cost to fix is more than the vehicle is worth. I believe this is a manufacturing defect.

Backup camera not working. Sporadically. Can’t see pedestrians or other vehicles or objects. This is strong safety issue. Car was designed to use it. Can’t visually see without it. Almost hit child on bike, and other pedestrians. Honda had recall on 2018 accord for this, but not 2013. Have read of many, many others this model and exact problem..

Steering began pulling hard to the left within a relatively short space of time, 2-3 days. After checking the tire pressure on all four tires and discovering no variants, we knew there was a serious problem! Our safety and that of others was at risk! The problem was confirmed when the local Honda dealer said they could not perform an alignment on our vehicle until the steering system was fixed. Then, in order to make the vehicle safe to drive, the dealer said our only option was to replace the rack and pinion/power steering system in order to make it possible to align the wheels on the car. The dealer replaced said components on April 6, 2021. The component in question was not inspected by manufacturer, police or insurance representatives. However, it was inspected by our dealership who replaced the faulty steering system. There was no warning of any type before the steering began pulling to the left! We were surprised that this should happen with a Honda and especially one with less than 100,000 miles.

The steering turns left. As soon as you start you car, with hands off the steering wheel the entire steering system turns left. Opened 2 cases with Honda and NO RESPONSE. Case # 11941086 and 12222896. Hillside Honda informs us that the codes don't show up so the only thing they can do is replace the steering gearbox and alignment for a customer cost of $3592 + tax. This was a sudden onset incident, no accident to the car. It is a safety hazard and Honda refuses to do anything about it.

This morning noticed the steering felt a little stiff. I started driving down the street and it would randomly pull to the left hard.. all of a sudden it would yank the car left into the other lane. Vehicle has not been to the dealership yet.. just saw this on the news the other evening

When I'm driving, my car will periodically steer itself to the right unless I forcefully hold the steering wheel against the direction it's trying to turn. This issue can also occur when idling at say a red light, or stop sign. This puts mine and others safety at risk because at any point my car could steer itself into another car without input. I have taken the vehicle to the authorized Honda dealer in my city and was told that it was an "alignment" issue. Funny thing is, I went ahead and got an alignment when purchasing new tires a few weeks later and on my way home the issue happened numerous times (with videos to prove it) and continues to happen to this day. My vehicle gave no warning or messages prior to the issue happening. This has been an ongoing issue for close to two years now so I'm very happy to see that the news that this is an issue that the NHTSA is probing. Honda insinuating that this is an alignment issue is an insult to mine, and my families safety.

The steering began pulling to the left. The alignment was examined and adjusted without fixing the problem. I lifted the front of the vehicle off the ground, started the engine and the steering turned slowly by itself to the full left stop. Took the vehicle to the Honda dealer for repair. They reset the error codes and examined everything. Upon leaving the dealer repair depot the steering pulled very hard to the left. I returned and complained. The manager helped out and contacted Honda Factory support. A 4 wheel alignment was performed and adjusted to factory specs. The electronic steering system was fully reset and reprogrammed. This seemed to fix the problem. About 1 month later the steering system began to act erratically and continues to do so. Sometimes when turning a corner the steering system pulls in the direction of the turn, right or left. Sometimes it acts normally. All oddities seem to related to accelleration and braking. When driving in a straight line there is no deviation left or right however it is always harder to turn the wheel left than right.

when attempting to start car , you can hear grinding noise, car fails to start , have to attempt several times to have the car to start, the procces to start car gets worse by every attempt

CAR STEERING WHEEL TURNS ALL THE WAY RIGHT ON ITS OWN. YOU HAVE TO USE FORCE IN ORDER TO CORRECT THE CARS PATH OF TRAVEL. STEERING ISSUE OCCURRED IN OUR DRIVEWAY WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING AND WE WERE BACKING. THE ISSUE CONTINUE WHEN WE PLACED THE CAR IN DRIVE.

STEERING WHEEL TURNS LEFT BY ITSELF WHEN VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IGNITION IS FIRST TURN ON AND VEHICLE VIOLENTLY JERKS HARD LEFT WITHOUT ANY FAIR WARNING ALMOST RIPPING STEERING WHEEL OUT OF HANDS AND TAKES ME INTO OPPOSITE LANE OF HIGHWAY WHEN IN MOTION DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.

DIFFERENT DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS HAVE BEEN REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES SINCE ORIGINAL OWNERSHIP IN 2012. POWER LOCK SUDDENLY DOES NOT ACTUATE WITH REMOTE NOR DRIVER SIDE CONTROL. ONLY PHYSICAL ACTUATION OF LOCK ENGAGES OR DISENGAGES LOCK

ON TUESDAY, MAY 3, 2021, MY CAR SUDDENLY VERED TO THE LEFT AND I HAD TURN MY STEERING WHEEL EXCESSIVLEY (ABOUT 90 DEGREES) TO GET MY CAR BACK INTO MY LANE. IF THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN A CAR NEXT TO I WOULD HAVE HIT IT SOMEONE OR SOMETHING. I SUDDENLY WAS HEARING A CRACKLING NOISE FROM MY STEERING COLUMN. I DROVE MY CAR A COUPLE OF MORE TIMES BEFORE I TOOK IT TO ROUSH HONDA IN WESTERVILLE ON 5/12/2021. WHEN I TOOK MY CARI EXPLAINED THE PREVIOUS SITUATION AND TOLD THE GENTLEMAN THAT THE NOISE IN THE STEERING COLUMN WAS GETTING LOUDER AND LOUDER AND HE SAID I WAS GETTING CHARGED $99 TO FIND OUT WHAT THE NOISE IS ABOUT AND WHAT WAS GOING ON. ON 5/13/2021, THE SERVICE DEPART. CALLED TO LET ME KNOW THAT IT WAS AN ALIGNMENT ISSUE AND SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE NOISE. I ASKED THEM WHAT ABOUT THE NOISE AND SHE SAID THERE WAS NOTHING ON THE SERVICE WRITE UP ABOUT A NOISE. SO I ASKED FOR A MANAGER. WHEN THE MANAGER CALLED, MAX WAGNER, HE TRIED TO TELL ME THAT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM THE TIRE AND AXLE AND NOT THE STEERING COLUMN. YOU CAN CLEARELY HEAR THE NOISE COMING FROM THE INSIDE OF THE CAR AND STEERING COLUMN. I HAVE A LIFETIME ALIGNMENT WITH FIRESTONE AND TAKE MY CAR ON A REGULAR AND RESPONSIBLE BASIS. HONDA IS CLEARLY GIVING ME A RUN AROUND AND IS AVOIDING TO FIX THE ISSUE THAT IS CLEARLY A PART MANUFACTURING DEFECT. CAN THIS BE INVESTIGATED BY YOUR AGENCY?

MY 2013 ACCORD SPORT SUDDENLY VEERED LEFT ON IT'S OWN AND I HIT A TELEPHONE POLE BREAKING IT IN HALF. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CAR IS A TOTAL LOSS AND I AM INJURED. I WAS DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE WHEN THIS HAPPENED.

I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN INTO A PARKING LOT AND STEERING WHEEL BEGAN SPINNING HARD TO THE LEFT. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE STEERING. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS COMPLETE FAILURE OF THE STEERING COLUMN WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED.

THE FIRST TIME, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY CAR STEERED TO THE RIGHT AS I WAS DRIVING WEST. IT WAS LIKE I WAS LOOSING CONTROL. IT TERRIFIED ME. IT SEEMED LIKE I WAS ABOUT TO GO OVER THE BRIDGE. IT SCARED ME SO BAD THAT I BEGAN HAVING ANXIETY ISSUES WHEN DRIVING OVER A BRIDGE. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL OTHER TIMES AS WELL. I CAN NO LONGER DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE I AM TERRIFIED. I NOW ONLY DRIVE STREETS AT 35 TO 40 MPH. PLEASE LISTEN TO WHAT I AM SAYING. I FELT LIKE THAT IT WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE CAR BUT DIDNT KNOW WHAT TO DO. I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS JUST MY IMAGINATION SO I SOUGHT PSYCHIATRIC ADVICE. THE DOCTOR DIAGNOSED ME HAS BEING AFRAID OF HEIGHT, BUT I KNEW BETTER. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THESE HIGHWAYS FOR YEARS AND NEVER HAD ANY FEARS. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE RECALL THESE CARS. PLEASE DON'T LET THERE HAVE TO BE AN ACCIDENT BEFORE SOMETHING IS DONE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. WE BOUGHT THESE CARS IN GOOD FAITH OF BEING ONE OF THE FINEST. BECAUSE I FELT LIKE IT WAS THE CAR, I HAVE ALREADY DECIDED TO GET RID OF MINES AS SOON AS I CAN.

MY CAR STEERS TO THE RIGHT WITH NO WARNING WHILE DRIVEN. IF I LET GO OF WHEEL, IT SUDDENLY DRIFT RIGHT. IT HAPPENS ON LOCAL ROAD OR HIGHWAY. I HAD ALIGNMENT DONE, TIRE ROTATION, THAT DID NOT SOLVE THE ISSUE. THE DRIFT COMES AND GOES. THE AUTO DEALER SAYS POWER STEERING IS NOT COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. THE TECH AT THE DEALER BELIEVE IT'S A SENSOR ISSUE AND NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AS IS. EVEN AFTER SHUT OFF THE CAR, THE WHEEL TURNS ITSELF TO THE RIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HER DAUGHTER INFORMED HER THAT WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, SHE LOSS CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND BLACKED OUT. AFTER REGAINING CONSCIOUSNESS, HER DAUGHTER NOTICED THAT SHE HAD STRUCK TWO VEHICLES THAT WERE PARKED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HER DAUGHTER PICKED HER UP AND UPON TAKING HER BACK TO THE VEHICLE, SHE NOTICED THAT THE FRONT AXLE HAD DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT AND DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 120,000.

YESTERDAY MORNING, (5-10-21), I WAS LEAVING FOR WORK IN MY ACCORD. THERE WAS SUDDENLY NO STEERING AND I WAS UNABLE TO MAKE THE RIGHT TURN OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY. HAD THIS HAPPENED ON A WINDING ROAD I'D BE A 3500 LB. BASE JUMPER WITH NO PARACHUTE. TAKING IT TO A DEALER, TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THE CAR AFTER REPAIRS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE VEERED TO THE LEFT INADVERTENTLY. THE CONTACT INITIALLY THOUGHT THAT THE ISSUE WAS BECAUSE OF THE WIND. THE STEERING WHEEL THEN CEASED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HOSMER HONDA (3825 4TH ST SW, MASON CITY, IA 50401) AND DIAGNOSED WITH POWER STEERING FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ON THREE OCCASIONS OVER THE PAST TWO YEARS THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD 2.4L SEDAN WOULD NOT START. THE FIRST TIME AAA CHANGED THE BATTERY. THE NEXT TIME AAA DETERMINED THAT THE BATTERY WAS FINE BUT THE CAR REACTED WITH A FAST CLICKING SOUND. PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL WOULD NOT WORK AND THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT MOVE OUT OF PARK. THE THIRD TIME WE LEFT THE CAR FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND THEN IT STARTED. EACH TIME THE CAR WAS LEFT IN THE ON POSITION, IN ONE CASE CHARGING A CELLPHONE, IN ANOTHER CASE LISTENING TO THE RADIO. IN THE PAST I HAVE NOTICED THE SMART ENTRY SYSTEM LIGHT COME ON AND OFF BUT WAS TOLD IN ONE CASE (BY A HONDA SERVICE REP!) THAT THEY COULD NOT DETECT A PROBLEM AND NOI CODE WAS REGISTERED. THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO BRING IT IN WHEN THE LIGHT WAS ON BUT IT IS INTERMITTENT. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE COULD BE INTERFERENCE FROM MY OTHER CAR'S REMOTE KEY OR MY CELL PHONE SO I HAVE BEEN MOVING THOSE TO THE BACK OF THE ACCORD. I HAVE ATTACHED SCREEN SHOTS FROM THE WARNING LIGHT AND TWO WEBSITES/BLOGS WITH MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE PROBLEMS THAT MAY BE RELEVANT. HERE ARE THE LINKS TO THOSE SITES: HTTP://WWW.CONTINENTALHONDA.COM/BLOG/HONDA-DASHBOARD-WARNING-LIGHTS-EXPLAINED/ HTTPS://WWW.DRIVEACCORD.NET/THREADS/SMART-ENTRY-SYSTEM-LIGHT-IS-ON.125729/PAGE-3 HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T43926_DS666390 THANK YOU

WHEN DRIVING THE POWER STEERING WOULD STOP WORKING COMPLETELY AND VEHICLE OPERATOR COULD BARELY STEER THE VEHICLE. WHEN GOING AROUND A CORNER THE POWER STEERING CUT OUT AND THE DRIVER SKIDDED OFF THE ROAD BUT WAS NOT INJURED. WE HAD TO GET THIS FIXED BECAUSE IT WAS A LIFE THREATENING PROBLEM. IT COST US 2,500 DOLLARS TO GET FIXED. HONDA HAD TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING UNIT STEERING RACK. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT THAT HONDA SHOULD HAVE PAID FOR BUT WE HAD TO PAY OUT OF OUR OWN POCKETS BECAUSE IT WAS TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE.

MY CAR'S STEERING WHEEL RANDOMLY JERKS LIKE IT'S GOING TO STEER OUT OF CONTROL, WHAT I DO IS GRIP THE WHEEL TIGHTLY AND I'M ABLE TO GAIN CONTROL. IT'S NOT OFTEN BUT IT'S HAPPENED A FEW TIMES WITHIN THE PAST 2 MONTHS TO DRAW CONCERN. IT'S ALWAYS WHILE I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD, IT WILL SUDDENLY VEER LEFT OR RIGHT WITHOUT WARNING. STEERING GOES FROM TIGHT TO LOOSE AT ANY GIVEN TURN/TIME.

ALL THE LIGHTS IN THE FRONT PANEL THAT INDICATE FLAT TIRED, HAND BRAKE, ABS, AIR PRESSURE, ETC ARE ON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS, THE STEERING WHEEL WENT TO THE RIGHT AND WAS DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, WAS SLOW TO RESPOND. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA OF BRIDGEWATER (1201 US-22, BRIDGEWATER TOWNSHIP, NJ 08807 (908) 722-5566) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE STEERING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000. INVALID VIN.

MY CAR IS FACING NO STARTING ISSUES SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR EVEN THOUGH I HAVE DONE EVERY SINGLE MAINTAINANCE ON TIME AT THE DEALERSHIP. THIS TIME THE DEALER TOLD ME IT IS A BULLETIN 19-034 AND NEED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS IF IT HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY, IT HAPPENED IN A SMALL PARK AND I WAS DRIVING VERY SLOW. THERE IS ALWAYS SOME STARTING ISSUES OF MY HONDA ACCORD SINCE I BOUGHT IT. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES EVERY YEAR. SOMETIMES THE DEALER ASK ME TO CHANGE BATTERY AND SOMETIMES THE DEALER AKSED ME TO CHANGE ALL KINDS OF FLUIDS. I HAVE CHANGED EVERY SINGLE FLUIDS, PCV VALVE, BRAKE PADS AND ROLLTERS IN THE CAR ALMOST YEARLY AND THE NO START ISSUE IS STILL HAPPENING. I FEEL IT TAKES ME TOO MUCH TIME AND COST ME SEVERAL THOUSAND OF DOLLARS EVERY YEAR IS TOO MUCH. ALSO, IF THE TURNOFF HAPPEND ON THE HIGHWAY IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. I AM HESITATE TO TAKE MY KIDS IN THE CAR SINCE THE PROBLEM. VERY ANNOYING. ALSO, THE SOFTWARE PROBLEM SHOULD BE SOLVED BY THE MANUFACTURER FREE BUT THEY ARE CHARGING ME EVERY SINGLE TIME.

I HAVE CHANGED MY CARS BATTERY YEARLY SINCE 2016. IT ALWAYS HAVE A STARTING ISSUE AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS. I HAVE CHANGED 4 BATTERIES AND THE ISSUE IS STILL COMING EVERY YEAR. LAST TIME WAS HAPPENED IN A PARK WHEN I WAS DRIVING MY KIDS. FORTUNATELY, MY SPEED WAS ONLY 20 MPH AND THE CAR TURNED OFF AND CANNOT START. IF THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, IT WOULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. I THINK THE BATTERY OF ACCORD HAS SOME PROBLEMS AS I ALWAYS CHANGE THE ORIGINAL BATTERY FROM THE DEALER. MY OTHER CARS ONLY NEED TO CHANGE BATTERY AFTER 4 TO 5 YEARS OF USE BUT MY ACCORD NEED TO CHANGE A NEW BATTERY EVERY YEAR. THERE MUST BE SOME ISSUES OF THE CAR IT SELF. IF THIS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY, IT WOULD BE REALLY DANGEROUS.

ALL THE LIGHTS ARE BASICALLY ON THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD EX WHICH INCLUDES THE BRAKE, ABS, TPS. I NOTICED THAT EVEN WHEN I HAVE NOT PRESSED THE BRAKES, THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED BY THE CAR. EXPECIALLY IN LOW/IDLE SPEEDS. THIS RESULTS IN ME HABVING TO PRESS THE GAS PEDAL AND RESULTS IN A ROUGH RIDE. I TOOK THE CAR INTO THE DEALER TODAY 4/1/2021. DEALER STATES THE CAR HAS A FAULTY VSA MODULATOR AND QUOTED $1400 FOR THE PART (57110-T2FA17) AND $510 FOR THE LABOR. ALSO SAID THE THEY NEED TO BLEED THE BRAKE FLUID AND REPLACE IT. AND THIS SAME PART WAS REPLACED BACK ON 11/5/2014. THIS CAR IS NOT PART OF ANY ACTIVE RECALL, BUT THE VSA MODULATOR HAS NOW FAILED TWICE. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW 4/20/2013. SEARCHING ONLINE SHOWS HONDA RECALLED SEVERAL OTHER MODELS AND YEARS FOR THE VSA MODULATOR. I HAVE ATTACHED SOME OF OTHER RECALLS THAT AFFECTED THE VSA MODULATOR

MY CHMSL LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING AFTER 108,220 MILES. I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA DEALER AND THEY QUOTED $258.99 FOR PARTS AND $500.00 FOR LABOR TO REPLACE THE HIGH MOUNT 3RD BRAKE LIGHT. I TOOK IT TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC TO GET THE CAR FIXED WHO TOLD ME THAT FACTORY-INSTALLED LED CHMSL HAD ITS QUICK CONNECTOR WITHOUT A STOP TAB THEREFORE THE WIRE WAS PULLED OUT FROM THE QUICK CONNECTOR. I HAD TO PAY $250.00 FOR TOTAL REPAIRS TO REPLACE LED CHMSL. THE MECHANIC ALSO MENTIONED TO ME THAT THE MANUFACTURER INSTALLED THE PART WHICH WAS DEFECTIVE INTENTIONALLY AS IT HAD SOME PERMANENT MARKINGS ON THE LED FIXTURE. HE ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE LED FIXTURE WAS FUNCTIONAL EXCEPT FOR THE DEFECTIVE LOCKING TAB FOR THE CONNECTOR. THE PROBLEM APPEARS TO BE QUALITY CONTROL AND MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

BASICALLY, MY COMPLAINT IS THAT I DON'T FEEL THAT MY STARTER SHOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED AT 36,000 MILES... I HAVE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 9 MONTHS.. I ALSO HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT PADS AND ROTORS TOO.. BASICALLY TOTALLING $640. IN PARTS AND 360. IN LABOR.. I BOUGHT IT DIRECTLY FROM THE DEALERSHIP.. IT HAS THE PUSH BUTTON START AND IT PUT OUT A 'GRINDING SOUND' WHEN I WENT TO START IT, THEN THE FRONT BAKES STARTED SQUEAKING ALSO..

THESE 2013 EARTH DREAMS HONDA ENGINES NEED TO BE RECALLED FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. THERE ARE KNOWN ISSUES WITH BAD PISTON RINGS IN THIS ENGINES THAT CAUSE OVER EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION, WHICH CAN LEAD UP TO ENGINE SEIZURE. HONDA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE WHICH IS AFFECTING MANY 2013 OWNERS. MECHANICS HAVE MADE VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE STATING THE SAME ISSUE. PLEASE OPEN AN INVESTIGATION TO GET THESE ENGINES RECALLED SO PEOPLE DON'T HAVE TO SPEND UPWARDS OF 5000 DOLLARS TO REPLACE THEIR ENGINES WHEN THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE FIXED BY HONDA. YOU NEED TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THESE ENGINES.

LOST POWER STEERING AND ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF CAR !!

2013 HONDA ACCORD ACCORD WITH 81K MILES IS BURNING OIL ABOUT 1QUART 1000 MILES.

2013 HONDA ACCORD V6EXL STARTER MAKES GRINDING NOISE WHEN BEING STARTED. SOMETIMES TAKES MULTIPLE TRYS TO FINALLY TURN OVER AND START ENGINE. BROUGHT TO DEALERSHIP BUT THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. ONLY OFFERED TO REPLACE ENTIRE STARTER SYSTEM FOR $900.

STEERING RACK/ PINION : CARS STEERING WHEEL JUST RANDOMLY TURNING ON ITS OWN TO THE LEFT AND BECOME HARD TO STEER WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT HIGHER SPEED

THIS IS TO INFORM YOU I MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR 2/20/2021 WITH MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP ONE WEEK PRIOR BASED ON THE RECALL LETTER RECEIVED FROM YOUR OFFICE. I WAS WAS PHYSICALLY THERE, I WAS TOLD BY ONE OF THE ADVISOR THAT THEY RAN OUT OF PARTS. NO FUTURE APPOINTMENT WERE MADE BY THE DEALERSHIP. NOT SURE WHAT IS MEANS BUT THIS WAS WRITTEN UNDER COMMENTS :DA212407, FROM THE "COMPLIMENTARY MULTI POINT INSPECTION" FORM. PERSONAL ARRANGEMENTS WERE MADE TO LEAVE MY CAR BASED ON MY CONVENIENCE; THE ROAD CONDITIONS WERE VERY ICY AND TREACHEROUS TO GET THERE; MY RIDE BACK HOME WAS WAITING IN THE PARKING LOT. AFTER GOING THROUGH THE PROCESS OF CHECKING IN MY CAR AND LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP, THEN I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL FROM ONE OF THE EMPLOYEES (YVONNE) THEY COULD NOT ACCOMMODATE ME. IN ADDITION, I CALLED YOUR VEHICLE SAFETY HOTLINE YESTERDAY 2//02/20/2021 TO REPORT THIS BUT YOUR OFFICE WAS CLOSED. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE CUSTOMER SERVICE I EXPERIENCED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ANTICIPATED COOPERATION WITH THIS MATTER.

I HAVE NOT OWNED THE CAR IN QUESTION SINCE MAY 2016 AFTER THIS CAR WAS TOTALED IN AN ACCIDENT AND I KEEP GETTING CALLS FROM HONDA OF PASADENA (PASADENA, CA). THE PROCESS ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE SAYS THAT THE MANUFACTURER CONTACTS CAR OWNERS TO NOTIFY THEM OF SAFETY RECALLS CORRECT? ARE DEALERS ALLOWED TO USE MY PERSONAL PHONE NUMBER/DATA TO SOLICIT ME FOR THESE REPAIRS MULTIPLE TIMES LIKE THIS? I MEAN, THE NOTIFICATION FROM THE MANUFACTURER APPEARS TO BE ENOUGH; THIS WILL ALLOW THE CUSTOMER TO CHOOSE THE DEALERSHIP ON THEIR OWN. THE PRACTICE OF THE DEALERSHIP REACHING OUT TO ME IS MORE LIKE AN UNETHICAL PRACTICE TO BAIT CUSTOMERS INTO GETTING REPAIR MONEY FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THIS IS IN FACT BAITING. PLEASE HELP AND RESPOND AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

WHEN I PUSH THE START BUTTON IT DOESN'T ALWAYS START - GET A GRINDING NOISE.

THE POWER STEERING SUDDENLY STOP WORKING ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH MY CAR.

AFTER MY 100,000 MAINTENANCE IN SEPTEMBER 2020, MY HONDA ACCORD BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING. SINCE THEN, I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY, THE ALTERNATOR AND STARTER. WHEN I START THE CAR FOR THE FIRST TIME OF THE DAY, IT STARTS. AFTER PARKING THE CAR AFTER I HAVE GONE SOME PLACE, THE CAR WILL NOT START. THEN, I HAVE TO KEEP PRESSING THE ELECTRICAL START BUTTON UNTIL THE CAR STARTS. SO FAR, AT TIMES, IT TAKES ABOUT 5 TO 10 MINUTES TO RE-START THE CAR. I REPORTED THE SITUATION TO HONDA USA ON 02/01/2021 AND THEY SAID THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON THIS VEHICLE SO THEY CANNOT HELP ME. HOWEVER, HONDA USA DID START A CASE FOR ME. MY WIFE AND I DO NOT WANT TO GET STRANDED AFTER DRIVING SOME PLACE. AFTER REVIEWING THE INTERNET, THE ELECTRICAL STARTING SYSTEM IS A MAJOR ISSUE FOR THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD. HONDA USA SAYS YOU CANNOT BELIEVE EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET. SEE CARCOMPLAINTS.COM. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE BECAUSE IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE.

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IS ACCUMULATING MOISTURE CONDENSATION INSIDE OF IT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WENT OUT MAKING THE CAR EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER. I WAS ABLE TO MUSCLE THE STEERING WITH BRUTE FORCE AND GET THE CAR HOME. AFTER SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY FOR A FEW HOURS THE PROBLEM IMPROVED (THE POWER ASSIST WAS BACK) BUT THE CAR MAKES SCRAPING SOUND WHEN THE WHEELS ARE TURNING.

MY CAR SUDDENLY STARTING BEING VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER TO THE RIGHT AND WHEN TRYING TO STEER TO THE LEFT IT SPINS. THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING. I LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS SO IT IS TERRIFYING TO THINK OF THE POTENTIAL SHOULD I BE UNABLE TO CONTROL THE CAR AND RUN OFF THE ROAD. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY SO I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN BOONE, NC. THIS LEAVES ME WITHOUT A CAR TO DRIVE AND NO ACCESS TO ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION IN MY SMALL RURAL MOUNTAIN COMMUNITY. THE DEALERSHIP WAS UNABLE TO PULL A DIAGNOSTIC CODE FROM THE COMPUTER. THEY USED A DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLESHOOTING TREE AND FOUND IT TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE POWER STEERING RACK AND THE REPAIR WOULD BE NEARLY $3K. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA CUSTOMER FOR 25 YEARS AND EXPECT BETTER. THIS APPEARS TO BE A WIDESPREAD ISSUE THAT ISN'T BEING ADDRESSED BY THE COMPANY. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF REPORTS THAT I HAVE SEEN ONLINE WITH THIS SAME ISSUE SO IT IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING FLAW THAT NEEDS TO BE REMEDIED BY HONDA. I AM AN ELDERLY WIDOW AND NEED RELIABLE TRANSPORTATION. I DO NOT HAVE THE FUNDS TO REPAIR THIS CAR AND NEED ASSISTANCE FROM HONDA AND THE NHTSA TO HELP GET THIS RESOLVED. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ASSISTANCE AND URGENT ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER FOR ME AND THE MANY MANY MANY OTHERS FACING THIS SAME FAILURE IN THE 2013 ACCORD. PLEASE DO THE RIGHT THING. PEOPLE'S SAFETY SHOULD BE FOREMOST FOR ANY COMPANY LIKE HONDA.

ERROR LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD COME UP (LOTS OF THEM) AND IN THE CENTER IT STATES "FCW SYSTEM FAILURE". HONDA TRYING TO CHARGE ME $1,600 TO FIX THE ERRORS AND APPARENTLY THIS IS HAPPENING TO A TON OF PEOPLE. CLEARLY SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED

WHEN I START TO TAKE OFF THE CAR STALLS OUR ON ME FOR LIKE 3 OR 4 SECONDS, IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK A LOT OF TIMES AND MY 2013 HONDA PILOT DOES THE SAME THING

WHEN WE FILL GAS TO THE FULL TANK, IT IS SMELLING

WHEN DRIVING OR WHEN CAR STARTS, SEVERAL LIGHTS ON THE DASH COME ON, FDW, BRAKE, STEERING WHEEL, LANE DEPARTURE, ABS... THE WARNING FCW SYSTEM FAILED FLASHES ON MESSAGE CENTER. THIS HAS BEEN DOING FOR YEARS ON AND OFF. HAS GOTTEN WORSE RECENTLY ON MORE THAN NOT LATELY. ALSO THE STEERING WHEEL HAS BEEN LOCKING UP WHEN I START MY CAR.

INTERMITTENT START BUTTON NOT ENGAGING. NEW BATTERY, NEW BATTERIES IN BOTH FOBS. USUALLY OCCURS AFTER INITIAL START WHEN YOU HAVE DRIVEN, STOPPED AT A DESIGNATION, EVEN JUST TO GAS UP. YOU PRESS START BUTTON, ALL LIGHTS COME ON, YOU TURN IT OF AND USUALLY ON THE THIRD ATTEMPT IT STARTS.

WHILE DRIVING MY STEERING WHEEL SHARPLY TURNS LEFT IF LET GO OF STEERING WHEEL. ACCIDENTLY I NOTICED I HAVE A LETTER FROM HONDA TO BRING THE CAR FOR STEERING GEAR SOFTWARE UPDATE WHERE IT REFERENCES TO TWO CODES THAT IF THEY ARE SET HONDA WILL REPLACE THE STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY AND EXTENDS WARRANTY TO 13 YEARS AFTER THE PURCHASE. DEALER UPGRADED THE SOFTWARE BUT TEST DRIVING IT AND STILL CAR TURNS LEFT SHARPLY BUT THEIR DIAGNOSTIC IS NOT COMING WITH ANY CODE TO SAY THE WHAT THE ISSUE IS. THE STEERING GEAR APPARENTLY IS ELECTRICALLY DRIVEN. THEIR RECOMMENDATION IS TO REPLACE IT AT MY OWN COST OF $3750. I DIRECTLY CONTACTED THE HONDA CORPORATE AT 800-999-1009 AND DESCRIBED THE SITUATION AND A CASE NUMBER ASSIGNED (#11377924). SEPARATELY DISCUSSING THE ISSUE WITH DEALER MANAGEMENT AND THEY SAID THEY ALSO TALK TO HONDA ENGINEERING TO FIND THE ISSUE AND HOPEFULLY AT NO COST TO ME. UNFORTUNATELY A COUPLE OF DAYS THE CASE HAS BEEN TURNED DOWN AND HONDA CASE MANAGER INDICATED THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO COVER THE COST. I ARGUED THIS IS A SAFETY MATTER AND ACCIDENT CAN HAPPEN. YOUR HONDA DIAGNOSTIC COULD NOT COME UP WITH ANY CODE AND YOU NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT FOR YOUR OWN SAKE AND HONDA REPUTATION, BUT TO NO AVAIL UNFORTUNATELY. DEALER FINAL OFFER WAS TO GIVE A COUPLE OF HUNDREDS OFF OF REPLACEMENT COST. IF THERE WAS A DIAGNOSTIC AND WOULD BE ABLE TO INDICATE THE CAUSE THAT WOULD HAVE BEEN ACCEPTABLE. CURRENTLY THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE THE HONDA LETTER AND DEALERSHIP DONE THE SOFTWARE UPGRADE BUT CURRENTLY AT THE CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP THE DEALERSHIP IS GILLMAN HONDA IN HOUSTON, TX AT HWY 59 AND SAM HOUSTON BELTWAY SOUTH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS IN THE RAIN, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, VEHICLE WAS HARD TO STOP AND UNSTABLE. THE BRAKE, TPMS, AND VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALSH HONDA (2056 EISENHOWER PKWY, MACON, GA 31206, (478) 788-4510) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REPAIR PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER. THE CONTACT STATED THE WRONG PART WAS PREVIOUSLY INSTALLED IN THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000. INVALID VIN.

POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING OUT OF NOWHERE WITH NO WARNING. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION IF DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR ANYWHERE FOR THAT MATTER. FORTUNATELY THE CAR WAS PARKED WHEN THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT. TOOK CAR TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE CAR HAD NO RECALLS.

POWER STEERING NOT WORKING AT ALL. GOT INTO MY HONDA TO GO UP THE STREET BUT COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. NOTICE THE POWER STEERING LIGHT ON. TRIED SEVERAL TIME TO CUT THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART, BUT THE SYSTEM NEVER CAME ON. LIKE RIDING A DEAD MULE!

VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST IS DE-ACTIVATED DUE TO DTC 85-01 SIGNAL FAILURE INDICATED IN ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MODULE. BECAUSE OF THIS, ANTI-LOCK BRAKES ARE NOT FUNCTIONAL. ORDERED REPLACEMENT VSA MODULATOR THROUGH LOCAL REPAIR SHOP FIRST WEEK IN AUG 11, 2020, BUT HONDA AMERICA ESTIMATES SHIP DATE OF DEC 21, 2020 (19 WEEKS)! THEY SHIP THOUSANDS OF NEW CARS EVERY WEEK WITH NEW VSA MODULATORS, MEANWHILE I HAVE TO DRIVE MY CAR WITH THE CRITICAL SAFETY EQUIPMENT DEACTIVATED!

CAR WILL NOT START EVEN WITH THE KEY FOB INSIDE THE CAR. KEY FOB HAS NEW BATTERY, CAR BATTERY IS FINE AS WELL. BRINGING THE FOB CLOSE TO THE START BUTTON OCCASIONALLY STARTS THE CAR. SIMILAR ISSUE WAS RECALLED IN EARLIER MODELS, NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR LATER VINS

STARTER BUTTON FAILS TO START ENGINE,50% OF THE TIME,EVEN WITH BRAKE FULLY DEPRESSED.

ON 10/8/20 POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 20 MPG IN A PARKING LOT. WARNING ICON CAME ON. PROBLEM RESOLVED AFTER TURNING CAR OFF AND RESTARTING. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME IT'S HAS HAPPENED.

ACCORDING TO UBER, THIS VEHICLE [XXX] HAS BEEN SALVAGED OR HAS A REBUILT TITLE. THE DEALER DOES NOT AGREE AND CARFAX REPORT DENIES BEING INVOLVED IN ANY ACCIDENT IN THE PAST. PER UBER " UBER WILL BE NOTIFIED BY NHTSA AND REACTIVATE THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY." INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AFTER WORKING A LATE SHIFT AT HER JOB, MY WIFE WENT TO DRIVE HOME ONLY TO HAVE THE CAR FAIL TO START. AT 11PM, SHE WAS LEFT STRANDED IN AN EMPTY PARKING LOT UNTIL I COULD REACH HER (45 MINUTES FROM OUR HOME). THE CAR'S STARTER HAD FAILED. A GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A COMMON AND WELL-DOCUMENTED FLAW WITH THE 2013 ACCORD. CALLED THE LOCAL DEALER AND THEY INSIST THAT THEY HAVE NO REPORTS OF KNOWN STARTER ISSUES. REPAIR COST IS OVER $300 ($200 FOR PART PLUS LABOR COSTS). REACHED OUT TO HONDA CORPORATE, NO RESPONSE.

I OWN A 2013 HONDA ACCORD SPORT, 4 CYLINDER EARTH DREAMS ENGINE WITH 65000 MILES ON IT. THERE IS A VERY KNOWN ISSUE WITH EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND OIL BURNING IN THESE EARTH DREAMS ENGINES. THE PISTON RINGS ARE FAULTY CAUSING OIL TO BE BURNED IN THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER. HONDA HAD A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE IN 2008-2012 AND THIS ISSUE IS HAPPENING IN MY VEHICLE. PROLONGED OIL CONSUMPTION CAN SEIZE THE ENGINE DUE TO NO OIL BEING LEFT IN THE ENGINE TO LUBRICATE IT. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP AS THIS OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE HAS NEVER BEEN RECTIFIED. THIS ENGINE IS BURNING 4 QUARTS OF OIL IN 2500 MILES..THERE IS BLACK SOOT AND THE END OF THE TAILPIPE, WHICH IS A CLEAR INDICATION OF OIL BURNING. HONDA BEEDA TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH A RECALL TO REPLACE STUCK OR WORN PISTON OIL RINGS. REPAIRS FOR THIS ISSUE ARE OVER 3000 DOLLARS. THIS COST SHOULD NOT BE PASSED ON TO THE CUSTOMER DUE TO FAULTY PARTS OR FAULTY ENGINEERING

MY STEERING STOPPED WORKING WHILE IN A PARKING LOT AND FORTUNATELY NOT WHILE MAKING A TURN. I WAS ABLE TO MUSCLE IT HOME BUT IT WAS FIGHTING ME THE WHOLE TIME AND I HAD TO TAKE VERY WIDE TURNS. THERE WAS A RELATED RECALL FOR A STEERING SOFTWARE UPDATE AND AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR A STEERING TORQUE SENSOR. IN THIS CASE IT WAS THE EPS STEERING MODULE WHICH HAD TO BE REPLACED SO IT WAS NOT COVERED. SINCE THERE ARE KNOWN PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING, I THINK THE EPS MODULE SHOULD BE CONSIDERED IN THE RECALL/EXTENDED WARRANTY BULLETIN SINCE IT IMPACTS THE SAME SAFETY ISSUE AS THE RECALL.

BOUGHT THE HONDA ACCORD IN NOVEMBER, 2012. I AM THE ONLY DRIVER. CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 14,000 MILES ON IT AND THE SEAT MOTOR HAS FAILED. IT MAKES NOISE. SEAT CANNOT BE PROPERLY ADJUSTED BY MOTOR. OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED AND SAID SEAT COULD COLLAPSE DOWN AND THAT IS DANGEROUS. THIS IS A COSTLY REPAIR INVOLVING REPLACING ENTIRE FRONT SEAT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED AT APPROXIMATELY 70MPH. MY VEHICLE HAS ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL AND ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WITHIN ONE DAY, THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME BUT THE CAR STARTED BRAKING HARD. FORTUNATELY, NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME OR THEY PROBABLY WOULD HAVE REAR-ENDED ME AS IT TOOK ME A FEW SECONDS TO CANCEL THE CRUISE CONTROL SINCE IT CAUGHT ME BY SURPRISE. IN AT LEAST ONE OF THE INSTANCES, THERE WAS A LARGE TRACTOR-TRAILER TO THE RIGHT OF ME SO I'M NOT SURE IF IT PERCEIVED IT'S SHADOW AS BEING A VEHICLE. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW IN 2013 AND THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO BRAKE WHEN NO ONE WAS ACTUALLY IN FRONT OF ME.

POWER STEERING WENT OUT. WARNING LIGHT FOR POWER STEERING CAME ON. TURNED OFF CAR, RESTARTED AND THE SAME WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. TURNED OFF THE CAR AGAIN, RESTARTED AND POWER STEERING WAS THEN WORKING. THIS DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.

DRIVER AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY, HOWEVER, PASSENGER AIRBAG DID DEPLOY. CAR WAS STATIONARY AND HIT FROM BEHIND BY ANOTHER VEHICLE MOVING AT LEAST 35 MPH AND CAR PUSHED INTO ANOTHER STATIONARY VEHICLE IN FRONT. CAR WAS HIT STRAIGHT FROM BEHIND. DRIVER HAS CONCUSSION AND NECK INJURY; PASSENGER DOES NOT, BUT HAD EYE IRRITATION.

REAR VIEW CAMERA GOES COMPLETELY BLACK ONLY SHOWING GUILDANCE LINES

THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING (EPS) IS PROGRESSIVELY FAILING JUST LIKE MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED PREVIOUSLY. I FIRST NOTICED THIS WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 65 TO 75 MILES PER HOUR BUT IT CONTINUES TO GET WORSE REGARDLESS OF SPEED. THE STEERING WANTS TO TURN LEFT ON ITS OWN AND IT IS SLUGGISH WHENEVER I MAKE A TURN EITHER DIRECTION. IN FACT I CAN EVEN FEEL THE SLUGGISH STEERING WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED. I'VE BEEN COMMUTING TO WORK IN MY OLD GMC TRUCK WHILE THIS PROBLEM IS BEING LOOKED AT BY A LOCAL GARAGE. THIS IS CLEARLY A SAFETY HAZZARD AND CONSIDERING HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE ENCOUNTERED FAILURES WITH THE EPS OVER MULTIPLE MODEL YEARS I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY HONDA HASN'T RECALLED IT. MY LOCAL GARAGE SAID IT REQUIRES THE STEERING RACK REPLACED WHICH IS AN EXPENSIVE PART AND WILL REQUIRE SIGNIFICANT LABOR COST AS WELL. I'VE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA CUSTOMER SINCE 1992 BECAUSE OF THE HISTORICAL QUALITY OF THEIR VEHICLES SO IT'S DISAPPOINTING THEY DON'T WANT TO RECALL THIS. I GUESS IT'S TIME TO LOOK AT OTHER BRANDS OF VEHICLES FOR MY NEXT PURCHASE.

THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION HAVE CLASS 1 LEAKS GASKET AREA. TO BE MORE SPECIFIC, LEAKS FOUND ON ENGINE HEAD GASKET AND TRANSMISSION HOUSING AREA.

I AM GETTING ERROR READINGS ON MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD EXL, V6 THAT THE FCW HAS FAILED WHICH IS CAUSING OTHER ERROR LIGHTS (TIRE PRESSURE, TRACTION, ETC). I HAVE ONLY 65,000 MILES ON THIS CAR. SHOULD THIS FAILURE OCCUR AT THIS SMALL MILEAGE? SHOULD THIS NOT BE A RECALL ISSUE?

2-3 MONTHS AGO, AT APPROX 72,000 MILES, THE STARTER WOULD NOT WORK ON OCCASION. INDEPENDENT DIAGNOSTIC SUGGESTED ISSUE WITH ALTERNATOR (REPLACED) AND BATTERY (REPLACED). ISSUE CONTINUED. NOW WE HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO START THE CAR FOR DAYS. A TEST OF THE STARTER SHOWS NOTHING WRONG. THEN FCW SYSTEM FAILED WHILE TRYING TO START THE CAR, CLEARED AND FAILED AGAIN. PUSHING STARTER BUTTON RESULTS IN ALL LIGHTS AND POWER COMING ON, BUT NO START OF THE CAR. WHEN POWER IS OFF AND DOOR OPEN, THERE IS A WARNING SIGNAL SIMILAR TO WHEN LIGHTS ARE LEFT ON, BUT LIGHTS ARE OFF. SEEMS THE STARTER PROBLEM IS COMMON, BUT THE RECOMMENDED FIXES ARE NOT WORKING. REPEATEDLY REPLACING PARTS DOES NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I WAS 150 MILES FROM HOME BEFORE THE LAST START. WHEN THE CAR STARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, I IMMEDIATELY DROVE HOME. I CAN'T RISK BEING STRANDED.

PAINT AROUND REAR WINDOW IS PEELING/DELAMINATING. BARE METAL EXPOSED.

I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FOR 4 YEARS WITH NO PROBLEMS. I RECENTLY STARTED USING THE AUTO FEATURE OF THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM. BOTH TIMES THAT I HAVE USED IT AFTER A COUPLE DAYS OF DRIVING MY POWER STEERING GOES OUT AND THE SPEED OF THE CAR DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ON SOCIAL MEDIA AND CAN'T FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM OTHER THAN TO TAKE IT TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND SPEND $2000 TO REPLACE THE COMPONENTS. MY SOLUTION NOW IS NOT TO USE THE AUTO CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM. I ONLY HAVE JUST OVER 60000 AND THE PROBLEM IS NOT FROM WEAR AND TEAR. I HAVE CONTACTED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE WITH NO HELP AS TO SOME ADVICE TO DEAL WITH THIS. LOOKING AT WHAT IS ON SOCIAL MEDIA, I CAN'T BELIEVE THIS HASN'T BEEN RECALLED. THIS HAS REALLY BLOWN MY BUBBLE AS TO THE HIGH REGARD I HAD FOR HONDA VEHICLES OVER THE YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, THE STARTER WOULD INTERMITTENTLY GRIND PREVENTING THE VEHICLE FROM STARTING. THE CONTACT STATED HE WOULD LET THE VEHICLE SIT FOR A COUPLE MINUTES BEFORE THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED. SEVERAL ATTEMPTS WERE MADE WHILE STARTING THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT CONTACTED THE DEALER KELLY HONDA (540 LYNNWAY, LYNN, MA 01905; (781) 595-5252) WHO INFORMED THE CONTACT OF SERVICE BULLETIN 16-002. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

ENGINE IS MAKING GRINDING/SCREECHING NOISE WHEN THE CAR STARTS, EVERY SINGLE TIME. THE MILEAGE ON THE CAR IS JUST 65,000. HONDA DEALERSHIP DOES NOT EVEN KNOW WHAT THE ISSUE IS. NO RECALL YET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE AT AN INTERSECTION STOP, THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO PROCEED DRIVING AND AT 6 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE CONTACTS DRIVER SIDE DOOR. NO AIRBAG DEPLOYED. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. NO POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE OTHER VEHICLE LEFT THE SEEN. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE AIRBAG SENOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE AT THIS TIME WAS BEING REPAIRED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED NHTSA ACTION NUMBER: EA19001 (AIR BAGS) AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO WHY THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DEALER BILL KAY HONDA (1360 LOCKE DR, BOURBONNAIS, IL 609140) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED NO RECALL WAS PRESENT UNDER THE VIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 121,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

POWER STEERING LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING. WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. PROBLEM REPEATED 3 TO 4 TIMES. STEERING HARD TO TURN IN EITHER DIRECTION. SAFELY DRIVE TO A SIDE. TURN CAR IGNITION OFF FOR A MINUTE THAT RESET STEERING TO NORMAL. AT TRAFFIC SINGNAL WHEN STOPPED AT 0 SPEED CLICKING NOISE FELT AT BREAK PADEL AND AT ACCELERATOR. TAKE IT TO A DELER IN ORLANDO FOUND STEERING RACK GEAR BOX NEED TO REPLACE(52-02) ALSO NEEDS WHEEL ALIGNMENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING AT 35 MPH, WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO PULL TO THE LEFT INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER COOKEVILLE HONDA LOCATED AT 560 NEAL ST, COOKEVILLE, TN 38501, (931) 528-6009, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING "GEAR BOX" TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 112,000.

WIFE WAS DRIVING AT AROUND 35 MPH WHEN THE POWER STEERING CUT OUT. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR ANYTHING. I DROVE IT NEXT DAY AND NO ISSUES....DAY AFTER THAT I DROVE IT WITH ESSENTIALLY NO POWER STEERING. I BRING IT TO THE DEALER, "ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING MOTOR" THEY TELL ME....THEY REPLACE THAT AND THEN DECIDE THE "CONTROL BOX" FOR IT ALSO NEEDS REPLACED....THEY REPLACE THAT AND THE ISSUE IS STILL NOT RESOLVED. NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME THEY DONT KNOW WHATS WRONG WITH IT AND THEY ARE IN DIRECT CONTACT WITH HONDA (ITS AT A HONDA DEALER.) HE TELLS ME LAST NIGHT TO BE PATIENT "THERES SOMETHING WE NEED TO TRY" I SAID OK KEEP ME UPDATED HAVNT HEARD BACK YET. I SEE THERES LOTS OF ISSUES ON HERE ABOUT THIS HOW IS IT NOT A RECALL? I ALSO FOUND A THREAD FROM 2015 WHERE PEOPLE HAVE PAPERWORK ABOUT A RECALL....BUT CAN FIND NOTHING ABOUT THIS RECALL ON HONDAS WEBSITE. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO BEING THE BILL IS ALREADY OVER 2K AND THEY DONT EVEN KNOW WHAT THEY NEED TO FIX....

I PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD LAST FALL. IT HAD 28,000 MILES ON IT AT PURCHASE AND HAS 36,700 MILES TODAY. TWO WEEKS AFTER I HAD AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRES ROTATED, I BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING PULLING LEFT. WHILE TRAVELING AT 50MPH ON A CROWDED CITY HIGHWAY, MY STEERING WHEEL JERKED LEFT AND I COULD HAVE HIT THE CAR IN THE LANE NEXT TO ME. THE PROBLEM PRESENTED AT INTERMITTENT TIMES OCCURRING LATER IN A TRIP. I DID AN EXPERIMENT IN A PARKING LOT; ROLLING FORWARD VERY SLOWLY, I LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE STEERING WHEEL SPUN TO THE LEFT AND THE CAR EXECUTED A PERFECT 90-DEGREE LEFT TURN BY ITSELF. THE CAR DID THIS AGAIN TWICE MORE DESPITE TURNING THE ENGINE OFF FOR A PERIOD BEFORE TURNING IT BACK ON. I TOOK IT BACK TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO COULD FIND NO ERROR CODE BUT COULD REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER RESETTING THE TORQUE SENSOR, IT WAS A BIT BETTER BUT NOT FIXED AS THE CAR STILL WANTS TO TURN LEFT. THE STEERING IS ERRATIC SOMETIMES IT IS HARD TO TURN RIGHT AND SOMETIMES THE STEERING FEELS LOOSE. MY LOCAL MECHANIC SENT ME TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR WHO SUGGESTED I TAKE IT TO A HONDA DEALER. THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT ALSO REPLICATED THE PROBLEM BUT COULD NOT FIX IT BECAUSE THE CAR DID NOT SHOW ANY ERROR CODES AND HONDA WILL ONLY REIMBURSE THEM IF THE CAR SHOWS TWO SPECIFIC ERROR CODES. I FOLLOWED THEIR SUGGESTION TO CALL HONDA; [XXX]. THE REGIONAL CASE MANAGER CALLED ME BACK, DID NOT ASK ME ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT MY PROBLEM BUT RUDELY LAUNCHED INTO A RAPID-FIRE LECTURE ABOUT WHY HONDA WAS NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR FIXING THIS PROBLEM IN MY CAR. BOTH MECHANICS WHO LOOKED AT MY CAR STATE IT NEEDS A NEW POWER STEERING RACK AND THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I AM A DOCTORAL STUDENT, I CANNOT AFFORD A $2500 CAR REPAIR QUOTED BY BOTH MECHANICS. *JS *JS PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THE TRACTION CONTROL, BRAKE, POWER STEERING AND FCW ERROR LIGHTS COME ON WHILE DRIVING. THE MESSAGE STATES "FCW FAILED". THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING, PARKED AND ON ALL ROAD SURFACES. EVEN WHILE PARKED IN THE GARAGE. ALL LIGHTS COME ON AT THE SAME TIME.THE COME ON AS THE VEHICLE GETS TO NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT A STAND STILL AT HER RESIDENCE, THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE AND LANE DEPARTURE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED TWO WEEKS LATER THE TIRE PRESSURE MEASURING SYSTEM, ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING AND ABS WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOCAL DEALER NELSON HONDA LOCATED AT 2500 GREENSBORO RD, MARTINSVILLE, VA 24112, (855) 910-6219, WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NEEDING VSA (VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST) MODULE TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.*DT

VEHICLE IS A PUSH START. SOMETIMES IT ACTS LIKE THE STARTER HAS A PROBLEM. WON'T CRANK EVERY TIME. VEHICLE DRIVER SIDE DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK WITH THE KEY FOB. HAD IT DIAGNOSED AT DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THE MOTOR IN THE DOOR WENT OUT.

NO POWER STEERING, WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. LOW MILEAGE, ALWAYS DID MANU REPAIRS.

MY CAR JUST GOT 22,000 MILES BUT HAS PROBLEMS WITH THE STARTER. I JOINED A FORUM OF PEOPLE WHO OWN SAME TYPE OF MY CAR. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE HAS SAME PROBLEMS WITH MINE. SOME LUCKY PEOPLE GOT THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR HAS 80,000 MILES. SOME UNLUCKY PEOPLE GOT THE PROBLEM WITH THE LOW MILES ON THE CAR AS ME. I THINK HONDA NEED TO HAVE A RECALL FOR STARTER PROBLEM OF HONDA ACCORD 13 MODEL.

MY DAUGHTERS 2013 HONDA ACCORD V6 HAD A STUTTER UPON ACCELERATION. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, THE TRANSMISSION WAS FLUSHED 4 TIMES. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE NEW TRANSMISSIONS HONDA PUT IN THE 2013. A FEW DAYS AGO THE SIDE WALL OF THE SIDE MISSION EXPLODED. CHUNKS OF METAL WAS FOUND ON THE GROUND AND IT SMELLED LIKE IT MIGHT CATCH ON FIRE.

SUN VISOR FALLING IN FRONT OF MY FACE. WILL NOT STAY UP AT ALL NOW.

HAVING "GRINDING" SOUNDS WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, HEARD THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR MULTIPLE 2013-2015 ACCORD OWNERS. THIS IS A INTERMITTENT ISSUE THAT DOESN'T LET THE CAR START. LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS 07/28/2020 BUT IT HAD HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR.

INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEM

I LOST MY POWER STEERING AT 65MPH DRIVING TO THE COAST ON HIGHWAY 26 IN OREGON. I NEARLY CRASHED MY CAR ON THE CURVE WHEN MY WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN LIKE IT NORMALLY DOES. I HAD TO YANK THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT TO STAY ON THE ROAD. I WAS TERRORIST! I SLOWED MY CAN TO 50MPH THE REST OF THE 45 MILES TO MY BEACH HOUSE IN SEASIDE OREGON. THE STEERING CONTINUED TO GET WORSE AND I HAS HAPPY TO HAVE THE TRAFFIC SLOW DOWN 20 MILES OUT OF SEASIDE TO BUMPER TO BUMPER. I BARELY GOT THE WHEEL TO TURN INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT OUR SEASIDE, OREGON HOME. I STARTED MY 'RESEARCH' TO SEE IF A RECALL HAD BEEN MADE ON MY CAR FOR POWER STEERING BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE DIED HITTING THE WALL OF DIRT AND TREES LEAVING THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE! I FOUND AN ARTICLE FROM 2014 THAT 374,000 PEOPLE HAD COMPLAINED OF THIS SAME PROBLEM. AND THAT YOU WERE INVESTIGATING BACK IN 2014! MY CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 42,000 MILES ON IT AND THAT WAS THE TIME OF THEM GOING OUT ACCORDING TO THE ARTICLE. CARS EFFECTED WERE 2013-2017 HONDA ACCORDS EX. MINE IS THAT AND A V6. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE CRASHED & DIED WITH THIS FAULTY PART? DO YOU HAVE RECORD OF IT? I WANT THIS ELECTRIAL POWER STEERING PART RECALLED!! YOU HAVE FAILED WITH NOT RECALLING IT BACK IN 2014!! I AM HOLDING "YOU" ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS HAPPENING TO ME!! I WANT YOU TO PAY FOR MY CAR TO BE FIXED AND MY RENTAL CAR! I NEED YOU TO RESPOND TO ME [XXX] [XXX] IS MY CELL. YOU ARE LUCKY I DIDN'T CRASH!! MY CAR IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY IN SEASIDE, OREGON AND I NEED IT TOWED TO BEAVERTON, OREGON TO GET IT FIXED. I HAVE POSTED THE 2014 ARTICLE OF YOU NOT RECALLING THIS! INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

WHEN PRESSING START BUTTON LIGHT WILL FLICKER BUT THE CAR WILL NOT START

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND VIBRATED ABNORMALLY WITH THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILURE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND DECELERATED TO 40 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. BOB HOWARD HONDA LOCATED AT 13201 N. KELLY AVE, OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73131, AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD FROM THE DEALERSHIP I NOTICED SOMETIMES THE PUSH START WOULD STALL OR SOUND LIKE IT WAS FAILING. ALSO MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT RESPOND TO MY KEY FOB. ALL OTHER DOORS RESPOND TO IT EXCEPT THE DRIVER DOOR. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND STILL THE ISSUE HASN'T BEEN RESOLVED. I HAVE BEEN TAKING THE ACTUAL KEY OUT OF THE FOB AND INSERTING IT INTO THE CAR DOOR TO UNLOCK MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR. NOW THE AC HAS BEGAN TO STOP AND START. IT ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE THE FAN MOTOR IS KICKING ON AND OFF. AND MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT IS NOT SLIDING BACK PROPERLY. IT WILL BEGAN TO GLIDE THEN STOP. THEN I HAVE TO KEEP PRESSING AND IT'LL GLIDE BACK A LITTLE AND THEN STOP AGAIN. OVERALL I THINK THERE IS SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE OR SOMETHING IS HAPPENING WITH IT. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RECALL SENT OUT JUNE 29, 2017. AS STATED ON THEIR WEBSITE THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT INCREASES THE RISK OF A FIRE. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID IS 17V418000 !

THE CAR SOMETIMES STARTS WITHOUT KEY, THE CAR STEALS POWER WHEN KEPT OUT

1. THERE IS HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE SHIFTS ARE HARD AND JOLTING 2. THE DOWNSHIFTING COMING FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS IS TERRIFYING. HARD, JOLTING SHIFTS THAT HAPPEN WAY TOO EARLY AND WAY TOO CLOSE TOGETHER. IT MAKES IT LIKE THE CAR IS STALLING CAUSING A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR A TUNING SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT FIXES THIS. *TR

VEHICLE STALL, FAILED TO ACCELERATE . THE STALL IS COMMON AND HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INTO AN ACCIDENT . I WENT TO HONDA AND NO ISSUE WAS FOUND, I AM THINKING THIS MIGHT BE FUEL PUMP RECALL. *TR

IBA CONDUCIENDO Y DE MOMENTO SE PUSO DURA LA DIRECCIN. LO ESCANEAN, LE BORRAN EL ERROR Y ENCIENDE SIN PROBLEMA, POSTERIORMENTE AL APAGARLO NUEVAMENTE PRESENTA LA DIRECCIN DURA. LE BORRAN NUEVAMENTE EL ERROR Y MIENTRAS NO SE APAGUE NO FALLA. I WAS DRIVING AND AT THE TIME THE DIRECTION GOT HARD. THEY SCAN IT, ERROR IT ERROR AND IT TURNS ON WITHOUT PROBLEM, AFTER TURNING IT OFF AGAIN IT PRESENTS THE HARD ADDRESS. THE ERROR IS CLEARED AGAIN AND AS IT IS NOT TURNED OFF, IT DOES NOT FAIL. *TR

THE HOSE ON THE GAS TANK HAS A HAIRLINE CRACK IN IT. THE ONLY WAY TO REPAINT IS TO CHANGE THE WHOLE GAS TANK WHICH IS $1200. THE FUEL TANK IS ON BACKORDER SO OBVIOUSLY OTHERS HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH IT. *TR

APPARENTLY MANY HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT FAULTY STARTERS IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL, AND SURE ENOUGH I EXPERIENCED IT TODAY. THE STARTER FAILED. THIS IS FROM A COLD START AND IT'S HAPPENED THREE TIMES ALREADY. *TR

STARTED IN JUNE AFTER WEATHER CONSISTENTLY OVER 80 DEGREES... WHILE TRYING TO START CAR HAVE TO PUSH START BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE CAR WILL START. PROBLEM IS INTERMITTENT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE EPS WARNING LIGHT AND AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE AND LOW PRESSURE FUEL LINES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT THE ALTERNATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 132,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

STARTER ISSUE. ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. 400-700$ REPAIR MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT SAME PROBLEM MY CAR 2013 ACCORD EXL 81000K. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON A TRIP TO TEXAS AND THE STEERING WHEEL AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ON ITS OWN, CAUSING US TO ALMOST CRASH INTO OTHER CARS ON THE HIGHWAY. NO LIGHTS APPEARED ON OUR DASH AND IT WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY. WE WERE DRIVING 75-85 MPH AND COULD HAVE INJURED MULTIPLE PEOPLE IF WE HAD CRASHED. THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME SO HARD TO CONTROL REQUIRING MY FIANC TO GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL TO TURN IT INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE OF THE HIGHWAY. ONCE HE LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL, IT WOULD TURN REALLY FAST ON ITS OWN TO THE LEFT. HE TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF, BUT THE ISSUE WAS STILL THERE. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER AND EXPLAINED WHAT I FOUND ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. HE SAID HE WOULD RESEARCH IT AND CALL ME BACK BUT HE NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. THIS IS BIG SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF AND SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR COST. I TRIED CALLING CORPORATE ONLY TO HAVE MY CALL CUT OFF 3 TIMES. WHAT IS THE ACTUAL PROBLEM; BECAUSE WITHOUT A DASHBOARD LIGHT AND NO CODE WE DON'T KNOW? *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA IN 2019. ALREADY IT IS SHOWING THAT IT HAS A FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR PROBLEM THAT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION. NOW IT CAN ONLY BE DRIVEN 40MPH OR LESS. I RECEIVED A PRINTOUT THAT DETERMINED THIS DIAGNOSIS AND STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I NOTIFIED HONDA AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. COULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME TO CONFIRM THE TRUTH? *TR

STEERING WHEEL TIGHTEN UP, NO WARNING SIGNS CAME ON. TIGHTNESS IN STEERING TO THE LEFT AND LOOSE WHEN TURNING TO THE RIGHT. NO LOCKUP ON STEERING JUST A SENSE OF TIGHTNESS. HAPPENED RANDOMLY WITHOUT ANY NOTICE. WAS DRIVING LOCAL WHEN IT STARTED TO TIGHT UP. *TR

2013 HONDA ACCORD V6EXL STARTER MAKES GRINDING NOISE WHEN BEING STARTED FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT DAY. HAPPENS MORE ON COLDER MORNINGS THAN WARM MORNINGS. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR ACCORD. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. THE DASH ON THE CAR DISPLAYED A "START STOP" ERROR. THEN, THERE WAS MUCH LESS HORSEPOWER. I AM GUESSING THERE WAS BETWEEN 10 AND 20 HORSE POWER. THE CAR COULD BARELY GO 20 MILES PER HOUR. THEN, THE DASH SAID, STOP THE CAR. YOUR CAR IS OVER HEATING. SO, I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET AND STOPPED THE CAR. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS ON A RESIDENTIAL SIDE STREET. WHERE I LIVE, SOME SECTIONS OF FREEWAY ARE 12 AND 16 LANES WIDE. IF I HAD LOST POWER IN THIS SITUATION, I DON'T THINK I COULD HAVE MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY. THE WATER PUMP ON MY MODEL CAR WAS PART OF A SAFETY RECALL. AUDI CLAIMS THAT THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN BEFORE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED. HOWEVER, THE WATER PUMP ON MY CAR ONLY LASTED FOR 49,000 MILES. I SUSPECT THAT THE RE-DESIGN OF THE WATER PUMP IS STILL NOT ADEQUATE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE WITH OUR WATER PUMP. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 50MPH AND SUDDENLY FELT MY CAR SLIGHTLY JERK AND MAKE A POPPING NOISE. I DID NOT SEE ANY OBSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO THIS, EVEN THOUGH IT FELT LIKE I HAD RUN OVER A TREE BRANCH. I PULLED OVER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND EVERYTHING ON MY CAR SEEMED FINE UNTIL I SAW MY SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. THE MIDDLE PART HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF WHILE THE REST OF THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED. IT LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING HAD FALLEN OUT OF THE SKY AND HIT IT, ALTHOUGH IT DID NOT FEEL LIKE ANYTHING HAD BOUNCED OFF MY CAR WHILE DRIVING. THE SUNROOF DOOR HAD BEEN CLOSED AND I RARELY OPEN IT (THE LAST TIME I USED IT WAS AT LEAST 6 MONTHS AGO). *TR

TO BEGIN WITH I'VE HAD TO CHANGE MY BATTERY ATLEAST 4 TIMES(ONE TIME IT EXPLODED WITH BATTERY ACID)IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. ALSO 6 DIFFERENT LIGHTS IN THE PANEL ARE ON(BRAKE/ABS/TIRE PRESSURE/A STEERING WHEEL WITH AN !/MAINTENANCE/POWER STEERING. I RECENTLY PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES FROM FIRESTONE AND GOT THE CAR ALIGNED THE MECHANIC SAID HE TRIED TO RESET THE NOTIFICATION ON THE DASHBOARD BUT IT WOULDN'T TURN OFF. I ALSO HAD A FAMILY MECHANIC PUT IT UNDER THE COMPUTER WHICH DIAGNOSED AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. ANOTHER ISSUE THE CAR IS HAVING IS IT SHORT CIRCUITS MY HEAD LIGHTS WHEN IT RAIN, WHICH MEANS I'M REPLACING THEM ALMOST MONTHLY. THE CAR TENDS TO SHAKE WHEN ITS STOPPED BUT ONLY IF THE AC IS ON. SO IN CONCLUSION AFTER READING THIS RECALL IN CREDIT KARMA I AM SURE MY CAR NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED

MY HONDA ACCORD 2013 HAS A BURNING OIL ISSUE. FOR EVERY 3,000MILES, MY DIPSTICK WILL ONLY HAVE 1/2 OR 1/4 FROM THE ORIGINAL TOP LEVEL. I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM LAST SEPTEMBER 2018 WHEN I TO A ROAD TRIP IN FRESNO. WHEN I CHECKED MY DIPSTICK, IT HARDLY HAD ANY OIL ON THE SUPPOSED LEVEL. I DROPPED BY A GAS STATION AND POURED 1QUART OF OIL AND THE OIL LEVEL WENT UP TO 1/2 OF THE DIPSTICK. IF I DID NOT PUT OIL, THEN MY CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN RUNNING WITHOUT ANY OIL AND COULD JUST STOP ANY MOMENT I WAS DRIVING. I INFORMED CENTURY HONDA ON 12/01/2018 ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND POWERTRAIN WARRANTY WAS STILL IN EFFECT. AS OF TODAY, IT APPEARS CENTURY HONDA REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE.

THE BATTERY LOSES CONNECTION AT RANDOM TIMES, SOMETIMES DURING DRIVING, SOMETIMES WHILE TURNED OFF AND HAVE TO ADJUST SENSOR TO GET CAR TO START. *TR

WHILE TRYING TO DIAGNOSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MY MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE FUEL TANK HAS A CRACK AT THE TOP OF THE TANK WHICH LEAKS GASOLINE WHEN FILLED UP. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED AND RECALLED FOR SOME OTHER 2013 ACCORDS BUT NOT OURS. HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR ANY VEHICLE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO. BUT AS IT CURRENTLY STANDS THEY ARE NOT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AS A PART OF PREVENTIVE MAINTENANCE THE BRAKES WERE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AND APPLYING THE BRAKE, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL SQUEALING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SOUND WAS LIKE METAL RUBBING TOGETHER. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE REVERSING AND APPLYING THE BRAKES, THERE WAS A WHISTLING SOUND COMING FROM THE BRAKES. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HONDA OF SLIDELL LOCATED AT (510 E HOWZE BEACH RD, SLIDELL, LA 70461, (985) 649-9091) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CALIPERS FROZE IN PLACE AND CAUSED SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE ROTORS. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CALIPERS AND ROTORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED A LOANER UNTIL THE REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000. *LN CONSUMER STATED THERE IS A DISCREPANCY IN INVOICES REGARDING OIL CHANGE MILEAGE AND NOTICED SIDE DOOR DENT CAUSED BY SERVICE DEALER.*JB *BF CONSUMER HAS CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER AND THE DEALER.*JB

FCW SYSTEM FAILED, ABS, TPS MESSAGE POPPED UP OUT OF THE BLUE. I BRAKED AND THE CAR SPOED UP, I HAD TO PULL UP MY EMERGENCY BRAKES, AND ALMOST REAR ENDED ANOTHER CAR WITH INFANT BECAUSE OF THIS. TOOK THE CAR TO A CERTIFIED MECHANIC WITH 18 CERTS. THE BRAKE LINES, FLUID, ROTORS, FLUID WERE PERFECT. NO LEAKS, THE MESSAGE IS STILL UP.HE CANNOT PULL UP ANY CODES. I AM TAKING A SCREENSHOT OF THIS STATEMENT WITH TODAYS FRONT PAGE PAPER INDICATING THE DATE I AM SENDING THIS TO YOU. PLEASE SEND OUT AN EMERGENCY ALERT SO OTHER HONDA DRIVERS DO NOT HAVE TO USE THEIR EMERGENCY BRAKE AND POSSIBLY KILLING AN INFANT OR OTHER PASSENGERS WHEN THEIR BRAKES FAIL.

INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. SOMETIMES IT WILL START ON FIRST PUSH OF THE PUSH TO START BUTTON. OTHER TIMES IT TAKES 10+ MINUTES OF ATTEMPTS TO GET IT STARTED. SOMETIMES IT JUST HASN'T STARTED. TOOK TO A MECHANIC, DIAGNOSED AS THE STARTER, REPLACED STARTER. ISSUE IS STILL PRESENT THIS DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM

CAR HAS 52000 MILES AND CAR IS BURNING EXCESSIVE OIL. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION IN THE 2013 ACCORD EARTH DREAMS ENGINES. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE. THE 2008-2012 ACCORD ENGINES HAD A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AND I BELIEVE ANOTHER ONE IS WARRANTED FOR THE 9TH GEN 2014-2017 ACCORD 2.4L MODELS..I AM LOSING ABOUT 1QT OF OIL PER 1000 MILES. THESE HONDA ENGINES ARE NOTORIOUS FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION AND THE OWNERS NEED HELP.

ERROR: KEYLESS ENTRY ISSUE. BATTERY ON BOTH KEY FOBS HAVE BEEN REPLACED WITH FRESH BATTERIES. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON HONDA ACCORDS AND HONDA PILOTS. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS DAILY, EVEN WITH KEY WITH-IN 6 INCHES OF IGNITION.. THIS ISSUES 1ST STARTED OCCURRING WITHIN 2.9 OF WHEN WARRANTY WENT OUT. IT WAS REPORTED TO DEALER 1 DAY AFTER WARRANTY WENT OUT.

TWICE IN THE PAST WEEK THE POWER STEERING HAS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING WHILE DRIVING ON BOTH A CITY STREET AND A HIGHWAY. IT ALSO SUDDENLY STARTS WORKING AGAIN WHILE DRIVING, USUALLY THE NEXT DAY.

THE EPS GEAR BOX FAILED. IT'S HARD TO TURN TO ONE SIDE WHILE EASY TO TURN ON THE OTHER SIDE. IT'S HARD TO BE IN CONTROL WHEN TO DRIVE THE CAR WITH THIS PROBLEM.

THE CAR HAS INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR CHANGED AND CHECKED AND THERE APPEAR TO BE NO ISSUES THERE. ONLINE FORUMS SUGGEST THAT THIS IS A ENDEMIC STARTER ISSUE WITH HONDA ACCORDS. SOMETIMES THE CAR WILL START WITH EASE. OTHER TIMES IT WILL NOT START AT ALL. WHEN IT DOES NOT START I HAVE TO JUMP IT, BUT WHEN I TAKE IT TO THE AUTO SHOP AFTERWARDS THEY TELL ME THAT THERE ARE NO APPARENT ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY OR ALTERNATOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN HE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLDE DOWN A SMALL HILL. THEN THE ABS LIGHTS ILLUMINATED WHEN HE TRIED TO BRAKE. THE CONTACT HAD TO ANGLE THE WHEELS TO COME TO A STOP ON A SLIGHTLY ICY. THE CONTACT WENT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THEY SAID THERE WAS A SHORT IN THE ABS SYSTEM AND REFERRED HIM TO A DEALER CURRY HONDA YORKTOWN 3845 CROMPOND RD, YORKTOWN HEIGHTS, NY 10598 914) 739-7600 .THEY SAID THERE WERE NO RECALLS AND SAID TO BRING IT IN. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CALLED YET. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 190,000.

MY SON WAS PRACTICING PARALLEL PARKING. AND CAR'S STEERING WHEEL BECAME STIFF AND HARD TO TURN. I WAS ABLE TO MAKE WHEEL STRAIGHT AND DROVE AROUND SLOWLY, MOSTLY STRAIGHT LINE, AND STEERING WHEEL BECAME NORMAL, ABLE TO TUNE IT WITHOUT FORCING IT HARD. IT WAS SCARY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE STEERING WHEEL CEASED WITH THE POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE CONTACT CALLED ROUTE 22 HONDA DEALER, (1480 N BROAD ST, HILLSIDE, NJ 07205, (866) 209-8982) AND WAS INFORMED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 136,075.

STARTER MOTOR DOES NOT ACTIVATE ALL OF THE TIME. THE STARTER JUST CLICKS ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME . THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR 3 MONTHS. THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY START AFTER NUMEROUS TRIES. APPROXIMATE MILEAGE 67000

EMISSIONS LIGHT ON. SMELL GASOLINE ALWAYS. MECHANIC STATED HE NEEDED TO CHANGE THE CYLINDER SENSON AND PUT A NEW GAS CAP ON. ONCE THIS WAS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE , TWO HOURS OR LESS, EMISSION LIGHT ON AND SAME ISSUE PRESENTED ITSELF. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE INITAL PROBLEM OCCURED WITH THE EMISSION AND STILL OCCURING.

MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. CAN'T STEER THE CAR. IT A FINE YESTERDAY. STEERING WHEEL WARNING LIGHT IS ON. I WAS PARKED LUCKILY WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I CAN'T USE MY CAR NOW.

I WAS GETTING OFF THE HIGHWAY AND WAS DRIVING HOME ALONG THE SERVICE ROAD WHEN I NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ON ITS OWN, CAUSING ME TO ALMOST CRASH INTO PARKED CARS. NO LIGHTS APPEARED ON MY DASH AND IT WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY. LUCKILY I WAS OFF THE HIGHWAY DRIVING AT LOW SPEEDS, OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE INJURED MULTIPLE PEOPLE. THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME SO HARD TO CONTROL REQUIRING YOU TO GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL TO TURN IT. ONCE YOU LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL, IT WOULD TURN REALLY FAST ON ITS OWN TO THE RIGHT. I TRIED TURNING ON AND OFF THE CAR, UNPLUGGING THE BATTERY, BUT THE ISSUE WAS STILL THERE. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND ALSO CONTACTED CORPORATE IN WHICH I WAS TOLD THAT THE RACK AND PINION IS BAD, AND IF THE CAR DOESN'T SHOW A CODE, THEY WON'T COVER IT. MY CAR ONLY HAS 46K MILES, AND A BIG SAFETY ISSUE LIKE THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED OR PARTIALLY COVERED. INSTEAD, I WAS TOLD IT WAS GOING TO BE OVER $3K FOR INSTALL AND PARTS, WHICH IS RIDICULOUS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO IMMEDIATELY START WHEN THE PUSH TO START BUTTON WAS DEPRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER SONS HONDA (105 SONS DR. MCDONOUGH GA ) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STARTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE STARTER WAS REPLACED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

INTERMITTENT IGNITION FAILURE. THIS SEEMS TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY IN COLDER WEATHER, BUT I HAVE HAD ISSUES ALL YEAR LONG. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE ENGINE, YOU HEAR A LOUD STATIC NOISE WITH NO ENGAGEMENT OF THE ENGINE. I'VE HAD TO ABANDON MY CAR ON A COUPLE OCCASIONS DUE TO THIS FAILURE. HONDA SERVICE TECHNICIAN ADVISED ME THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND OFTEN RESULTS IN REPLACING THE STARTER. I DON'T HAVE A WRITTEN QUOTE, BUT HE VERBALLY ESTIMATED THE COST TO BE AROUND $1,000.

DRIVER'S SIDE REAR WHEEL BEARING HUB ASSEMPLY FAILED AT 66,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THIS WAS THE ORIGINAL HONDA PART WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. WHIRRING NOISE WAS INCREASINGLY WORSE WHEN I WAS DRIVING, PROMPTING ME TO HAVE IT EVALUATED BY MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE HE SHOWED ME THE NOISE MADE WHEN THE ONE WHEEL WAS TURNED WITH THE CAR ON THE RACK. PART WAS REPLACED. THE OTHER REAR BEARING ASSEMBLY SEEMS OK SO FAR. REPAIR BILL WAS $430. MECHANICS TELL ME THIS IS VERY UNUSUAL FOR A WHEEL BEARING TO FAIL WITH SO LITTLE MILES ON THE CAR.

THE SMART ENTRY KEY WARNING LIGHT ON DASHBOARD RANDOMLY GOES ON AND OFF. I HAVE REPLACED BATTERY IN KEY FOB WITH SAME RESULT. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE AT SOME POINT VEHICLE MAY NOT START. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND STATIONARY AT TIMES WHEN THIS OCCURRED. HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR LAST SEVERAL YEARS.

THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER WENT OUT ON THE VEHICLE AT ABOUT 90,000 MILES WITHOUT WARNING. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH.

MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD BURNING OIL, I GOT AN OIL CHANGE 4 MONTH AGO,ITS NO OIL LEAKS OR ANYTHING MY OIL LIFE IS 70%. HOWEVER WHEN COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP MY OIL LIGHT COMES ON AND NO OIL IN DIPSTICK. NOW THIS HAPPENED FOUR TIMES NO OIL IN DIPSTICK FIRST TIME IN 64008 MILES ON 05/26/18 AND THE SECOND TIME IN 71689 MILES ON 01/03/19 AND THE THIRD TIME 75000 MILES 03/20/19 AND FOURTH TIME 80000 MILES ON 07/13/19. I WENT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP TWICE TO CHECK MY CAR AND DEALERSHIP SAY NO ISSUE AND I DID TWO ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST FIRST TIME IN 64008 MILE ON 05/26/18 AND THE SECOND TIME IN 71689 MILE ON 01/03/19 AND ALL PASSED AND DEALERSHIP SAY NO ISSUE. I DO NOT WANT MY CAR ENGINE GET BROOKING OR FIRE. PLEASE I NEED HELP.

THE CAR BURNS A LOT OF OIL. 1.5 QUARTS FROM TRAVELING 55 MILES IN THE LAST WEEK.

STARTER PROBLEMS: CHANGED BATTERY TWICE WITHIN 40K MILEAGE (ODOMETER READING) THE LAST TIME THEY CHANGED BATTERY IT WAS BY HONDA SAID MY BATTERY IS NOT GOOD AND REASON BECAUSE SOMETHING IN THE ELECTRICAL WITHDRAWING POWER AND KILLING THE BATTERY AND AFTER 4 DAYS AT HONDA DEALER AND CHARGED ME OVER $600 THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM (THEY SAID)...IN FACT THEY SAID WE THINK IN THE RADIO MAYBE! WELL AFTER 6 MONTHS I FOUND OUT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT WHAT THEY SAY BUT IN THE STARTER! THE STARTER CAUSE THIS ISSUE UNTIL IT FINALLY THE STARTER WENT DEAD! I OPEN THE STARTER MYSELF AND ITS DEFINITELY THE STARTER CAUSING THIS AND I THOUGHT TO BRING IT TO YOUR ATTENTION. HONDA MUST KNOWN ABOUT THIS FOR SURE! THESE CONDITION IT CAUSED WHEN ITS STATIONARY. BUT SO MUCH PAIN. YOU DRIVE THE CAR AND THEN YOU PARK AND THEN WHEN START NOTHING, PAINFUL EXPERIENCES. IT HAPPENED IN MAY OCCASIONS, SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR FROM DEALER AND UNTIL DECEMBER 8 THAT IS WHEN I OPEN THE STARTER AND SAW THIS TO FOR SURE ITS THE STARTER PROBLEM THAT CAUSE BATTERY TO DIE EARLY AND HONDA COULD NOT IDENTIFY THE PROBLEM AT ALL UNTIL FINALLY THE STARTER WEN DEAD. I AM AN ENGINEER AND CONFIDENT ITS FROM THE STARTER. I LEAVE THE MATTER TO YOU TO CHECK AND DECIDED. THANKS

AS I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN ALL THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS TURNED ON. I TOOK IT TO AUTOZONE AND THEY TOLD ME THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH REAR TIRE ON THE PASSANGER SIDE

ON 11-28-2019@ APPROXIMATELY 1835 HRS. MY HONDA ACCORD LX-AUTOMATIC WAS INVOLVED IN A MULTIPLE CAR ACCIDENT INVOLVING 5 CARS. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOYED WHEN THE CAR WAS HIT FROM THE REAR AND PUSHED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT. 2 IMPACTS WERE FELT FROM BEHIND FROM. AT THIS TIME THE CAR IS DISABLED AND I AM AWAITING FOR ESURANCE TO EVALUATE MY LOSS. I AM VERY CONCERN THAT THIS COULD HAVE POTENTIALLY BEEN A DEADLY SITUATION FOR MYSELF AS WELL AS THE OCCUPANTS OF THE CAR. I WAS ON THE LEFT LANE TRAVELING WESTBOUND WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME SUDDENLY SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS AND THE CAR FROM BEHIND PUSHED MY CAR INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE SPEED LIMIT ON THE LIE 495 WESTBOUND IS 50 MPH.

AFTER SERVICE AT HONDA SERVICE STATION AT ROSENBERG, TX... I HAD ISSUES WITH THE TEMPERATURE SENSOR IN THE FRONT OF THE GRILL, ALSO A CODE SHOWED UP 2 DAYS LATER, ALONG WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT... WHEN SCANNED IT WAS "P0420"... WAS WONDERING IF, THE MECHANICS WHILE CLEANING, USED WATER UNDER PRESSURE TO CLEAN, AND DURING THE CLEANING, DID THEY FLOOD MY EXHAUST... "CREATING BUSINESS?""

WE BOUGHT THE HONDA ACCORD FROM THE DEALERSHIP BRAND NEW AND TOOK DELIVERY 11/4/2013. ON SATURDAY 11/16/2019, WITH JUST OVER 40,000 MILES ON THE CAR WE NOTICED THAT THE POWER STEERING WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. IT WAS NOT ONLY HARD TO STEER BUT ALSO WOULD CONTINUE PROGRESSING IN THE DIRECTION TURNING. WE TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ON MONDAY 11/18/2019 WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE RACK, POWER STEERING NEEDED REPLACE FOR A TOTAL COST OF $2,797.49. CONTACTED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY REFUSED TO HELP. CONTACTED THE EXTENDED WARRANTY COMPANY SINCE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY EXPIRED 12 DAYS EARLIER. THEY WOULDN'T HELP. THIS WAS A VERY DANGEROUS FAILURE ON A VEHICLE THAT WAS WELL TAKEN CARE OF AND HAS VERY LOW MILLAGE. DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND AND ARTICLE IN EDMUNDS "FEDS PROBE 2013 HONDA ACCORD FOR POWER STEERING FAILURE", ESTIMATE 374,000 COMPLAINS ABOUT THE 2013 HONDA ACCORDS. ISN'T THAT ENOUGH TO FORCE HONDA TO DO A RECALL?

I WAS DRIVING ON BUSY 4 LANE ROAD AND WAS TURNING TO THE LEFT TO GET IN THE TURN LANE WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY HARD TO MOVE. I WAS ABLE WHILE STRUGGLING TO MAKE THE TURN. IT WAS LUCKY AS THERE WAS NO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAD THE CAR IMMEDIATELY TOWED TO THE DEALER AND NOW HAVE A $3,000 REPAIR BILL TO FIX THE POWER STEERING. I HAVE NOTICED ALL THE COMPLAINTS GOING BACK TO THE ORIGINAL YEAR THE VEHICLE WAS BUILT AND CANNOT BELIEVE THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT CAUSED A RECALL.

THIS PROBLEM STARTED TWO YEARS AGO AND GOT WORSE IN MAY. IT ALL STARTED WHE WE HAD A ROUGH TIME STARTING THE VEHICLE IT WOULD TAKE UP TO 6 TIME UNTIL THE CAR WOULD FINALLY START. WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE BATTERY SO WE CHANGED THE BATTER UP TO FOUR TIME AND IT STILL KEPT HAVING STARTING ISSUES SO THEN WE WERE TOLD IT WAS THE STARTER SO WE HAD IT REPLACED AND WE ARE STILL HAVING ISSUES AND NOW THE CAR STALLED ON ME WHILE STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY INTERSECTION AND IT TOOK NUMEROUS TRIES AND IT FINALLY TURNED OVER. OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAD THE CAR FOR 13 WEEKS AND TOLD US THEY WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STARTING ISSUES AND THEN TOLD US A FEW DAYS LATER THEY DIDNT PUSH THE BUTTON IN LONG ENOUGH SO IT WAS THERE MECHANICS FAULT AND THEN TELL US THEY FIND A DRAW ON THE BATTERY AND A FEW DAYS LATER TELLS US THERE MECHANIC USED A FAULTY METER AND THEN THEY BLAME IT ON OUR INTERNET, SMART TVS, GARAGE DOOR OPENER AND WIFI. I AM SO TIRED OF ALL THE EXCUSES AND NEED A CAR THAT'S NOT GOING TO LEAVE ME STRANDED AND THAT I CAN FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR OUT OF TOWN RIGHT NOW THAT'S NOT THE CASE. I DO HAVE SEVERAL FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS THAT HAVE HAD TO COME TO MY RESCUE TO JUMP START MY CAR OR WE HAVE HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO GET IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. WE HAVE HAD TWO ASE CERTIFIED MECHANICS LOOK AT IT AND WERE ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE STARTING ISSUES AND THE BATTERY DRAINING AND THEY BOTH TOLD US TO TAKE IT TO OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP. WE HAVE LOTS OF VIDEO AND DOCUMENTATION OF WHAT THE CAR IS DOING AND ALSO FRIENDS THAT WILL SPEAK ON OUR BEHALF. NO ONE WILL RIDE WITH ME ANYMORE IN FEAR THE CAR WONT START OR STALL WHILE STOPPED IN A BUSY INTERSECTION. WE STARTED HAVING ISSUES TWO YEARS AGO BUT GOT ALOT WORSE IN MAY OF THIS YEAR.

ALONG SEVERAL OTHERS, I BEGAN HAVING THE INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEMS ON MY 2013 2.4 L ACCORD AT AROUND 60,000 MILES. THIS TYPE OF STARTER USES A SOLENOID TO MOVE THE STARTER MOTOR'S PINION GEAR FORWARD TO MESH WITH THE FLYWHEEL'S RING GEAR WHILE SIMULTANEOUSLY PULLING THE PLUNGER AND ITS COPPER CONTACT DISC ONTO THE BATTERY CONTACT AND THE STARTER MOTOR CONTACT TO COMPLETE THE CIRCUIT FROM THE BATTERY TO THE STARTER MOTOR. WHEN FUNCTIONING PROPERLY, TURNING THE IGNITION KEY OR STARTER BUTTON SHOULD MESH STARTER'S PINION GEAR WITH THE FLYWHEEL AND TURN THE STARTER MOTOR TO CRANK THE ENGINE. THE PROBLEM WITH THESE STARTERS IS THAT THE BATTERY-SIDE CONTACT AND THE BATTERY-SIDE OF THE PLUNGER CONTACT ERODE EXCESSIVELY DUE TO ARCING AND CONSEQUENT PITTING. THIS INTERMITTENTLY PREVENTS THE PLUNGER'S CONTACT FROM CONTACTING THE BATTERY-SIDE CONTACT TO COMPLETE THE CIRCUIT BETWEEN THE BATTERY AND STARTER MOTOR. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE PINION GEAR MESHES WITH THE FLYWHEEL BUT THE STARTER MOTOR DOESN'T TURN. NOTE THAT THE PINION GEAR ENGAGING AND DISENGAGING THE FLYWHEEL IS THE CLICKING SOUND HEARD FROM UNDER THE CAR DURING A FAILED START. THIS PROBLEM WAS FIXED BY REPLACING THE CONTACTS WHICH ARE INCLUDED IN HONDA BRUSH HOLDER (HONDA PART NUMBER: 31210-5A2-A01) WHICH COST ME $45 AT MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER. I BELIEVE 2013 THROUGH 2017 2.4 L ACCORDS USE THIS PART WHICH SUGGESTS THAT THEY WILL, OR ARE, EXPERIENCING THE INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEM. ONE WOULD THINK HONDA WOULD HAVE HAD A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.

PAINT IS FLACKYING FROM CAR. VISIBLE AREAS THAT CAN BE SEEING WHERE PAINT IS PEELING AWAY AND PRIMER IS EXPOSED. I HAVE ASKED IF I COULD DRIVE CAR IN OR SEND PICTURES TO ENSURE THAT THIS IS NOT DO TO LACK OF CARE. MY VEHICLE LOOKS AND RUNS EXCELLENT. LARGE AREAS OF PEELING PAINT THAT CAN EASILY BE SEEN.I HAVE MADE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AT CONTACTING BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND AMERICAN HONDA, YET I HAVE HAD NO SUCCESS AT A RESOLUTION.

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. I TRAVEL ABOUT 30K A YEAR. I HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY METICULOUS WITH THE EXTERIOR AND MAINTENANCE OF THE VEHICLE. DURING THE COURSE OF MY TRAVELS, I HAVE ON AT LEAST 4-5 OCCASIONS HAD DIFFICULTY CHANGING LANES. MORE SPECIFIC, WHILE TRYING TO MAKE A LANE CHANGE AT LOW SPEED (5-35 MPH) I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE WHEEL TO MAKE A LANE CHANGE. THE ABILITY TO STEER CAME BACK QUICKLY, BUT FOR A SECOND OR TWO, A TURN WAS NOT POSSIBLE. THIS PAST WEEK, ON 10/30/2019, A SIMILAR SCENARIO TRANSPIRED. I WAS STOPPED AT A "STOP" SIGN AND NEEDED CROSS AN INTERSECTION AND MAKE A LEFT TURN. JUST WHEN IT WAS TIME TO TURN, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED, NOT ALLOWING ME TO TURN LEFT. AS THERE WAS AN ONCOMING VEHICLE, I WAS ABLE SLOW DOWN BUT STRUCK A CURB WITH MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE. THE IMPACT BEAT UP THE RIM PRETTY BAD AND DEFLATED THE TIRE. I REPLACED THE TIRE WITH THE SPARE AND HEADED TO A NEAR MECHANIC, ABOUT 1 MILE AWAY. THE MECHANIC ADVISED ME NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE. THE DAMAGE INCLUDED CRACKED RIM, POWER STEERING RACK AND ELECTRONIC STEERING BOX TO NAME A FEW. IN RESEARCHING PARTS, I CAME ACROSS MANY INCIDENTS IN WHICH A 2013 HONDA ACCORD HAS HAD FAILED STEERING CAPABILITY. I CONTACTED HONDA (CASE #10012315), THEY DID NOT ACKNOWLEDGE A PROBLEM NOW, NOR IN THE PAST AND COULD NOT COMMENT ON PROBLEMS THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD. I WAS TOLD THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OLD AND HAD A LOT OF MILES. THEY TOLD ME "YOU HAD AN ACCIDENT, WHY ARE YOU CALLING HONDA, YOU SHOULD BE CALLING AN INSURANCE COMPANY". HONDA WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. I EXPRESSED MY REGRET IN NOT PURCHASING A FUTURE HONDA VEHICLE... SHAME ON HONDA.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MY WIFE, MOTHER IN-LAW AND MY TWO YEARS DAUGHTER AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY HARD AND STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS VERY CONCERNED ABOUT MY FAMILY AND MYSELF BECAUSE WE WERE ON THE HIGHWAY! I TOOK THE NEAREST EXIT IT WAS VERY DIFICULT TO CONTROL THE CAR. I STOPPED THE TO CHECK MY PHONE ON WHAT COULD BE THE CAUSE? THIS SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT HAPPENED TO MANY PEOPLE BEFORE AND HAD REPORTED IT TO THE NHTSA. BUT NOTHING WAS DONE! I CARE FOR MY FAMILY' SAFETY AND I WILL HOLD THE NHTSA RESPONSIBLE IF ANYTHING HAPPENS TO ME OR MY FAMILY DUE TO THIS ISSUE.THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY HONDA.

THE CAR LOOSES ITS STEERING CONTROL. WHEN STATIONARY (AND DRIVING), IF I TAKE MY HANDS OFF THE STEERING, IT AUTOMATICALLY STEERS ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT. IT SOMETIMES RESETS THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR IS RESTARTED OR WHEN IT IS TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT, THE PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN SHORTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT LIKE OTHERS, I ONLY GOT A BIG BILL OF $2800.

REPEATED IGNITION SYSTEM FAILURE ON 2013 HONDA ACCORD V6 TOURING WITH PUSH BUTTON START THAT LEFT MY DAUGHTER AND ME STRANDED ON A NIGHT WHEN IT WAS ONLY 13 DEGREES ABOVE ZERO. PUSH BUTTON START ONLY RESULTED IN A GRINDING NOISE, NO ATTEMPT TO ENGAGE FLYWHEEL TO START THE ENGINE. STARTER HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE AND THE TORQUE CONVERTER ONCE (AT THE RECOMMENDATION OF THE DEALER TO FIX THIS ISSUE) WITH THE SAME RESULTING GRINDING NOISE AND FAILURE OF THE ENGINE TO START. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HONDA CORPORATION MANY TIMES; IT IS A POORLY ENGINEERED AND FAULTY DESIGN THAT THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND CANNOT FIX.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JOHN EAGLE HONDA OF HOUSTON (18787 NORTHWEST FWY, HOUSTON, TX 77065, (281) 528-1165) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST MODULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 118,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

SOMETIMES MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD CAR WON'T START IMMEDIATELY. IT WAS STATIONARY. I HAVE TO WAIT A MINUTE AFTER THE FIRST FEW TRIES. IT A STARTER ISSUE. IT NOT THE BATTERY I PURCHASE A NEW BATTERY AND I I'M STILL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED NEW A 2013 HONDA ACCORD 4 CYL IN AUGUST 2013 WHICH HAD THE BATTERY SENSOR REPLACED AT 26,010 MILES IN OCTOBER 2017. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, I STARTED EXPERIENCING AN INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEM. WHEN I TURN THE KEY, THE DASH LIGHTS TURN ON AS NORMAL, BUT THE ENGINE DOES NOT TURN OVER OR EVEN CRANK. WHILE THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN ALL THE TIME, IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY AND IT CAN TAKE BETWEEN 2-6 TRIES BEFORE IT FINALLY STARTS AT HOME OR ANYWHERE I TRAVELED. AAA JUMPED ME ONCE TOO. DEALER SAID TO SWITCH KEYS AS IT MAY BE THE IMMOBILIZER SENSOR IN MY KEY. THEN DECEMBER 2018 AT 32,935 MILES, DEALER RECOMMENDED I REPLACE THE BATTERY WHICH I DID, BUT ISSUE CONTINUED, JULY 2019 AT 36,555 MILES, DEALER PERFORMED DIAGNOSTICS STATING THE STARTER WAS BAD BUT THERE WASN'T A RECALL AND IT'S MORE THAN 36 MONTHS SO OUT OF WARRANTY. DEALER DOES NOT APPLY THE COST OF THE DIAGNOSTICS AGAINST THE REPAIR. TOTAL COST FOR DIAGNOSTICS, STARTER AND TAX WAS $889.47. PLUS THE DEALER SOLD ME A REFURBISHED STARTER WITH A 3 YR/36,000 MILE WARRANTY STATING A NEW STARTER ONLY CARRIES A 12 MONTH WARRANTY. ALMOST $1K IS A LOT OF MONEY FOR ONE REPAIR FOR A SENIOR CITIZEN FOR A CAR WITH 36K MILES. APPEARS THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE SO HONDA MOTOR CO SHOULD RECALL THE STARTER AND PROVIDE REIMBURSEMENT TO THOSE WHO HAD TO HAVE IT REPLACED TO AVOID BEING STRANDED.

WHEN TURNING MY STEERING WHEEL WHILE DRIVING MY ENGINE SHUTS DOWN AND RESTARTS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP

WHEN I TURN KEY IGNITION CAR DOESNT START, I HAVE TO TURN KEY BACK AND FORTH FOR IT TO START

THE WHITE PAINT HAS BEGUN PEELING IN THE RAIN CHANNEL OF THE BACK GLASS. I AM UNCERTAIN IF THIS AFFECTS THE INTEGRITY OF THE BACK GLASS. THE PRIMER IS EXPOSED IN SEVERAL PLACES.

MY 16 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD WHEN THE POWER STEERING FAILED. HE WAS IN MOTION ON A COUNTY HIGHWAY, TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. HE JUST CAME OFF AN ACCESS ROAD AND HAD VEERED TO THE RIGHT TO MERGE INTO ON-COMING TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 38K MILES. THE WHEEL JERKED TO THE RIGHT AND TOOK GREAT EFFORT TO CENTER THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUE TO A STOP. HE TURNED OFF THE CAR AND CALLED ME. STATED IT WAS STILL DRIVEABLE AND DROVE HOME, BUT CONTINUED TO HAVE TO ACCOMMODATE FOR STEERING WHEEL JERKING TO THE RIGHT AND CIRCULATING OUT OF CONTROL WHEN LET GO. I DROVE THE CAR UPON HIS RETURN AND EXPERIENCED SAME ISSUE. TAKING VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC CHECK.

2013 ACCORD DID NOT START AND MAKE A CLICK SOUND. HONDA DEALER NOT ABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE ACTUAL PROBLEM. BATTERY, STARTER REPLACED BUT DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

WHILE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT ON CITY STREET WITH HANDS ON STEERING WHEEL, SOMETHING JERKED IT TO THE LEFT AND I HAD NO POWER STEERING, I GOT OVER STEERING MANUALLY INTO A PARKING LOT. I TURNED IGNITION OFF AND BACK ON AND IT STARTED WORKING PROPERLY AGAIN.

VEHICLE WOULD OCCASIONALLY NOT START. WHEN PRESSING THE BUTTON, A STATIC NOISE IS HEARD. THE STARTER IS SPINNING, BUT NOT ENGAGING WITH THE TORQUE GEAR. THE STARTER MOTOR HAS BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES BUT THE RESULT IS THE SAME. THESE START ISSUES ARE A DAILY OCCURRENCE. THE ONLY WAY IT STARTS IS IF I SHIFT TO NEUTRAL AND TRY. OCCASIONALLY THAT DOESN'T WORK AND I HAVE TO SHIFT BACK TO PARK AND TRY TO START IT THERE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL BURNING ODOR EMERGING FROM THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FLOW HONDA (2600 PETERS CREEK PKWY, WINSTON-SALEM, NC 27127, (336) 785-3380)WHERE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS ADDED AND THE BATTERY WAS JUMPED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,005.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE CONTACT HAD TO DEPRESS THE START BUTTON MULTIPLE TIMES TO START THE IGNITION. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ASSOCIATED THE FAILURE WITH TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: 16-002. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALSER HONDA (LOCATED AT 14800 BUCK HILL RD, BURNSVILLE, MN 55306, (952) 388-2231), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

VEHICLE BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER FOR NO REASON. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO SAFETY RECALL. THERE ARE ALMOST 400,000 COMPLAINTS I'VE NOTICED AND I'M WONDERING WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL. I HAD 3 OF MY CHILDREN WITH ME AT THE TIME AND I FEEL EXTREMELY FORTUNATE THAT OUR VEHICLE DID NOT CRASH AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE BEFORE THIS IS CONSIDERED SERIOUS ENOUGH FOR A RECALL?

WE ARE A COLLISION REPAIR FACILITY IN OREGON SCOTTIES AUTOBODY THIS VEHICLE HAS A BROKEN STEERING SHAFT IN THE COLUMN THAT APPEARS TO BE DEFECTIVE METAL . I DONT KNOW IF THIS IS A RANDOM PROBLEM BUT I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE INSPECTED . THIS BROKEN SHAFT CAUSES 100% LOSS OF STEERING

TAKATA RECALL MY COMPLAINT IS ABOUT ABS PUMP ANTI-LOCK BRAKE PART MODULATOR ASSEMBLY SEDAN CVT FITS 13 ACCORD 503036 THE LIGHTS ARE ON IN THE DASHBOARD AND IN THE DEALER TOLD ME TO REPLACE THAT PART.

TAKATA RECALL. NOTHING HAS BEEN RESOLVED. ADDITIONALLY, VTC ACTUATOR. HONDA HAS REPAIRED ACCORD'S FROM 2008-2012 BUT NOT 2013-2016 WHICH HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. VARIOUS FORUMS AND MY OWN VEHICLE HAS THE ISSUE. I HAVE VIDEOS AND SOUND TO PROVE THE SAME ISSUE THAT HONDA IS REPAIRING ON ACCORD'S FROM 2008-2012 ON THE SERVICE BULLETIN. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. WHEN TURNING ON THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE STARTS WITH A LOUD START-UP AND SOMETIMES WHEN THE WEATHER IS REALLY COLD, THE ENGINE WON'T START. HONDA DOES HAVE A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE BUT FOR OLDER CARS.

THE CAR IS HAVING STARTER ISSUES. RANDOMLY WILL START AND THEN WON'T. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET. SAME MAKE AND MODEL, SAME ISSUE. THE SYSTEM OR STARTERS ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR QUITE SOME TIME FOR US- AT LEAST A YEAR OR MORE.

2013 HONDA ACCORD IS FAILING TO START. PUSH STARTER BUTTON AND IT WILL NOT START, THEN AGAIN AND WILL NOT START, THEN AGAIN AND IT WILL START. BEGINNING TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY. HAVE A NEW BATTERY AND CHECKED ALTERNATOR AND EVERYTHING FINE.THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME I WAS TRYING TO START IT.

THE CAR IS HAVING STARTER ISSUES. RANDOMLY WILL START AND THEN WON'T. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON THE INTERNET. SAME MAKE AND MODEL, SAME ISSUE. THE SYSTEM OR STARTERS ARE OBVIOUSLY DEFECTIVE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR QUITE SOME TIME FOR US- AT LEAST A YEAR OR MORE.

I OWN A 2013 (BOUGHT NEW) WITH 45000 MILES ON IT. THE STARTER WENT OUT AND THE TORQUE CONVERTER NEEDS REPLACED AS WELL. IT A BEAUTIFUL CAR AND ITS WAY TO SOON TO BE HAVING THESE ISSUES. THE CAR WON'T START AND MAKES A GRINDING NOISE.

KEY-LESS ACCESS CONTROL UNIT IS VERY UNRELIABLE. THE PUSH BUTTON START DOES NOT ALWAYS ENGAGE. THIS MAKES STARTING THE CAR A VARIABLE TIME EVENT AND NOT SUITABLE FOR MOVING THE CAR IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION. THE PROBLEM WAS WELL KNOWN BY HONDA AND PRESUMABLY FIXED IN SOME 2013'S. HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 13-038 TOLD HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENTS TO REPLACE THE MODULE AS A WARRANTY REPAIR. THEY CUT THIS OFF AT VIN DL002124, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. STREETSBORO OHIO HONDA TELLS ME THEY CAN ORDER THE PART BUT THEY WANT OVER $600 TO REPAIR THIS DESIGN FLAW. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN DECEMBER OF 2013 AND WAS UNAWARE OF THE ISSUE FOR A LONG TIME. I THOUGHT THE CAR WAS JUST HARD TO START. I MENTIONED IT TO A SERVICE MAN AT BEDFORD HONDA AT THE TIME, BUT THE CAR STARTED UP FOR HIM SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW SO I JUST LIVED WITH IT. IT'S NOW MUCH WORSE.

REARVIEW CAMERA SCREEN IS BLACK WHEN I PUT CAR IN REVERSE

CAR STALLS GOING THRU INTERSECTIONS WHICH I COMPLAINED ABOUT WHEN I BOUGHT IT IN FT .MYERS IN 2013. I HAVE PAPERWORK THAT SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT HOWEVER, THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE YEARS. SO FAR, I AM LUCKY NOT TO BE HIT! BRAKES LOCKED UP WHILE DRIVING ON 7/15/19 , I STARTED TO TURN INTO A DRIVEWAY AND THE BRAKES LOCKED AND I HAD TO VEER ONTO THEIR LAWN ON AN EMBANKMENT, RAN OVER A CEMENT PARKING BLOCK AND THROW IT INTO PARK AND TURN IT OFF IN ORDER TO STOP THE CAR FROM HITTING ANYONE! THE CAR WAS TOWED FROM PROSPECT AVE AND BRADY STREET IN MILWAUKEE WI. RUSS DARROW HONDA RAN A SAFETY CHECK AND SAID IT WAS FINE. I THINK THEY SHOULD CHECK THE VSA MODULATOR. ABRA AUTO REPAIR IN GLENDALE HAD IT TOWED AND SAID THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE IT AND SENT IT TO RUSS DARROW HONDA. CLEARLY, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH IT! I HAVE A FL DRIVERS LICENSE AND I AM IN WI NOW FOR THE SUMMER, WHICH IS WHERE THIS HAPPENED. I HAVE PICTURES BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD THEM TO YOUR SITE?

MY DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG TURNED ON AND HAS BEEN ON EVER SINCE ALSO WHEN I PRESS ON MY BREAKS THE THE LOCKS ON THE DOORS MAKE A CLICKING NOISE

I THINK THIS MIGHT BE MY 3RD COMPLAINT, I LOVE HONDA AND HAVE HAD HONDA CARS FOR YEARS, BUT THIS HAS REALLY TESTED MY PATIENCE. FOR THE LAST 4 YEARS I HAVE GONE THROUGH 3 STARTERS AND 2 ALTERNATORS, EVERY TIME I CONTACT HONDA THEY TELL ME TO DROP THE CAR OFF SO THEY CAN TEST IT, I PAY THEM $130 SO THEY CAN TELL ME WHAT THEY ALREADY KNOW. MY PROBLEM IS THAT STARTER ISSUE IS VERY COMMON, AND THERE IS NO LONG TERM FIX FOR THIS ISSUE. SO THE ISSUE IS BACK, I END UP GETTING STRANDED IN PLACES FOR HOURS AT A TIME, AND SOMETIMES EVEN END UP BEING LATE TO WORK, DUE TO MY STARTER SPINNING AWAY UNTIL I CAN GET IT TO CATCH EVENTUALLY. I TOOK IT TO GET APPRAISED THE OTHER DAY, AND IT WOULDN'T START OFCOURSE, THE DEALER REFUSED TO LOOK AT THE VEHICLE OFCOURSE, BECAUSE NO ONE WANTS TO SELL A LEMON. AT THIS POINT, I AM EITHER LOOKING FOR HONDA TO BUY MY CAR OFF ME, REPLACE IT, OR COME UP WITH A PERMANENT FIX. IF YOU GO ON YOUTUBE AND TYPE IN HONDA STARTER ISSUE YOU WILL FIND PLENTY OF VIDEOS, AND I ALSO HAVE RECIEPTS FOR ALL THE TRIPS MY CAR TOOK TO THE DEALER. I AM NOT GOING TO INSTALL A 4TH STARTER, THAT IS THAT REDICULOUSE, I REFUSE TO GO TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP AGAIN FOR THEM TO TELL ME WHAT I ALREADY KNOW.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND STATIONARY, ONCE IT WAS TURNED ON THE (EPS) ELECTRICAL POWER SYSTEM LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH. STEERING WHEEL WAS THEN DIFFICULT TO MOVE OR TURN. THE INDICATOR WAS CONSTANT FROM THAT POINT.

PUSH BUTTON STARTER DOESN'T WORK NEARLY EVERY DAY. TODAY JULY 9 2019 IT WOULDN'T START 3 TIMES. EVERYTHING FREEZES (STEERING, BRAKE) BUT ALL LIGHTS LIGHT UP. THERE ARE 1,000'S OF PEOPLE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TOO... SO FAR ONLY WHEN STARTING.

KEYLESS PUSH BUTTON START WORKS INTERMITTENTLY TO START CAR - SOMETIMES TAKES 10 TRIES TO CRANK; BATTERY IS GOOD

MARCH 2019 DROVE CAR TO GYM WITHOUT INCIDENT. CAR WOULDN'T START AN HOUR LATER. AAA CAME AND THE TECH'S TOOLS INDICATED BATTERY HAD SUFFICIENT POWER. TECH TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO START CAR AND GOT IT TO RUN. HE ADVISED ME TO TAKE IT TO SHOP TO GET STARTER FIXED. I DROVE IT HOME INSTEAD AND THE CAR WORKED FINE FOR A MONTH. ONE MORNING IT DIDN'T START AGAIN. I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN TWO WEEKS LATER AND IT WAS FINE. THE NEXT DAY IT DIDN'T. FINALLY IN JULY 2019 I CALLED FOR A TOW. AAA CAME, JUMPED THE CAR AND ADVISED ME TO DRIVE DIRECTLY TO SHOP. AT SHOP, DETERMINED IT WAS JUST A DEAD BATTERY. REPLACED IT TODAY. AT 120000 MILES AND IN THE SPAN OF 6 YEARS, THIS IS THE THIRD BATTERY.

IN EARLY 2019, AFTER MY HONDA DEALER REPLACED MY VEHICLE'S WATER PUMP, I BEGAN EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE PUSH BUTTON START FEATURE ON MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD. SOMETIMES, MY CAR STARTS RIGHT AWAY. BUT MORE OFTEN, IT TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS BEFORE MY CAR WILL START USING THE PUSH BUTTON START FEATURE. WHEN REPEATED ATTEMPTS ARE NECESSARY TO START MY CAR, I HEAR A 'CLICKING' TYPE NOISE WHEN I PRESS THE START BUTTON, BUT MY CAR DOES NOT TURN OVER. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS PUSHING THE 'START' BUTTON, MY CAR EVENTUALLY STARTS (SOMETIMES AFTER A FEW SECONDS AND A FEW ATTEMPTS, SOMETIMES AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS AND TWO OR THREE MINUTES). THE PROBLEM OCCURS RANDOMLY, WHEN THE CAR IS COLD AND WARM. I NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM UNTIL HONDA REPLACED THE WATER PUMP ON MY CAR EARLIER THIS YEAR. BASED ON OTHER WEB POSTS, THIS SOUNDS LIKE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE PUSH BUTTON START FEATURE IN 2013 HONDA ACCORDS. ONCE MY CAR STARTS, IT RUNS WELL. AT THIS PRESENT TIME, I HAVE NO OTHER MECHANICAL PROBLEMS OTHER THAN THE PUSH BUTTON START FEATURE. HOWEVER, MY CAR'S FAILURE TO START IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN ITSELF IF A CAR FAILS TO START IN A SITUATION WHERE A QUICK GET AWAY IS NECESSARY (FOR EXAMPLE, FLOOD, WILD FIRE, OR OTHER NATURAL OR OTHER DISASTER THAT MAY REQUIRE THAT MY CAR START WITHOUT DELAY).

STARTER FAILURE DESCRIBED IN HONDA'S TSB 16-002. CAR EXHIBITED A GRINDING NOISE UPON TRYING TO START. IT WOULD FAIL TO START. THIS WAS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. HONDA FINALLY REPLACED THE STARTER BUT WAS UNWILLING TO WARRANTY THE KNOWN PROBLEM. A YEAR LATER I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

HAVING PROBLEMS WITH STARTING THE CAR AT TIMES. IT STARTED WHEN ON A ROAD TRIP. WE WERE AN HOUR OUT FROM HOME, HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATELY 2.5 HOURS. WE STOPPED AT A REST AREA TO USE THE FACILITIES, CAME BACK TO THE CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START, IT TRIED TURNING OVER BUT DID NOT. WE RECEIVED A BOOST AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. THIS HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY WITH NO WARNING. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE CAR WAS CHECKED OUT AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR AND STARTER WERE ALL FINE. I ACTUALLY DRIVE WITH A JUMP STARTER IN THE CAR SO THAT I WON'T BE STRANDED. IT IS FRUSTRATING TO NOT KNOW WHAT IS WRONG.

BATTERY DRAINS OFTEN. HAVE CHANGED THE BATTERY TWICE & I BELIEVE I WILL HAVE TO CHANGE IT AGAIN. I BELIEVE IT'S THE CHARGING SYSTEM FOR THE BATTERY

PUSH BUTTON START DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THE CAR IS UNPREDICTABLE BECAUSE IT FREQUENTLY FAILS TO START WHEN I PUSH THE ENGINE BUTTON. SOMETIMES IT STARTS ON THE FIRST TRY, BUT I AM FREQUENTLY LEFT TRYING TO CRANK THE CAR FOR 5 TO 10 MINUTES. ONE DAY IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL BUT STARTED IMMEDIATELY THE NEXT MORNING. THIS PROBLEM HAS EXISTED FOR MONTHS AND THE CAR HAS APPROXIMATELY 52,000 MILES. I READ ON 'COMMUNITY TALK' THAT OTHER HONDA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE. ON JUNE 27, 2019, I HAD TO PAY OVER $773.84 TO REPLACE THE STARTER. THE DEALERSHIP IN DANVILLE, VA. SAID THEY KEEP THE STARTERS IN STOCK BECAUSE THEY ARE REPLACING ALL OF THEM.

THE CAR HAS A PUSH BUTTON START. SOMETIMES THE STARTER ON THE CAR DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY. AT TIMES, THE CAR FAILS TO START FOR 5 TO 10 MINUTES AND INDICATES THAT THE STARTER SYSTEM IS NOT NOT WORKING PROPERLY. IT ALSO INDICATES THAT THE POWER IS STILL ON. EVEN AFTER THE IGNITION IS OFF, THE POWER IS STILL ON. ON JUNE 27, 2019, I HAD TO PAY $773.84 TO REPLACE THE STARTER. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR MONTHS. THE CAR ONLY HAS 51,562 MILES. THE PROBLEM STARTED BEFORE 50,000 MILES BUT HAPPENED INFREQUENTLY. OVER THE MONTHS, THE PROBLEM GREW WORSE. NOW THE CAR MAY NOT START IN THE EVENING BUT STARTS IMMEDIATELY THE NEXT MORNING. GETTING STRANDED IS A DEFINITE RISK. THE DANVILLE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN VIRGINIA SAID THEY KEEP THE STARTERS IN STOCK BECAUSE THEY ARE REPLACING A LOT OF THEM. THERE ARE ALSO DISCUSSIONS ON-LINE ABOUT THE PROBLEM - COMMUNITY TALK. THEREFORE, HONDA SHOULD REPLACE THE STARTERS FREE OF CHARGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE TRACTION CONTROL AND POWER STEERING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WETZEL HONDA (3505 CHESTER BLVD, RICHMOND, IN) WHERE A STEERING SERVICE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED PER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM. AFTER RETRIEVING THE VEHICLE FROM THE DEALER, THE POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY MALFUNCTIONED AND THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000.

IN 2018 MY BATTERY WENT DEAD AND THE LINES WERE CORRODED. BATTERY WAS REPLACED. 3 MONTHS AGO MY CAR STARTED TO NOT START RANDOMLY. ALL LIGHTS ON DASH LIT UP, STARTER MAKING NOISE AS IF IT IS STARTING, CAR DOESN'T START. THIS WAS ABOUT ONCE A WEEK BUT IS NOW UP TO TEN TIMES A WEEK. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE WHERE OTHERS REPORTED THE SAME PROBLEM, SAID PUT IT IN NEUTRAL AND IT WILL START (TRUE) AND THAT HONDAS WERE HAVING TROUBLE WITH CONNECTION TO BATTERIES. SAID STEP ONE WAS TO CHANGE OUT SENSOR UNTIL PART BECAME AVAILABLE TO FIX THIS PROBLEM AND TO CONTACT RECALL WITH VIN NUMBER TO GET VEHICLE FIXED. I HAD A RECALL ON A SENSOR A COUPLE OF YEARS AGO AND TOOK CAR IN FOR SAME AND HAD WORK DONE--NOT SURE IF THIS IS SAME PROBLEM OR NOT, BUT AS I WAS ABLE TO LOOK THE EXACT PROBLEM UP ONLINE WITH EXPLANATION AND SOLUTION HOW TO CIRCUMVENT PROBLEM I EXPECTED TO SEE A RECALL ABOUT THIS. PLEASE ADVISE WHAT MY NEXT STEP IS. THANK YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM

2013 HONDA ACCORD CAUGHT ON FIRE IN OUR COMPLEX ON SUNDAY 6/9/2019. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY FOR ABOUT 4 HOURS PRIOR TO THE VEHICLE CATCHING ON FIRE. WE WERE CALLED BY OUR NEIGHBOR THAT THE CAR WAS ON FIRE JUST BEFORE 4PM THAT DAY. WHEN WE GOT BACK, THE FIRE DEPARTMENT HAD JUST PUT OUT THE FIRE. A POLICE REPORT WAS ALSO FILED. THE CAR IS ALSO IS PART OF AN ACTIVE RECALL FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR. WE RECEIVED 2 NOTICES (AUGUST 2017/FEB 2019) AND I WAS TOLD EACH TIME THAT THE CAR WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. I HAVE FILED A CLAIM WITH MY INSURANCE COMPANY ALONG WITH OPENED UP A CASE WITH HONDA. I ALSO FILED A CONSUMER COMPLAINT AGAINST HONDA FOR A DEFECTIVE CAR. NO ONE WAS IN THE CAR AT THE TIME IT CAUGHT ON FIRE BUT THE VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS AS IT DESTROYED THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE CAR. MY INSURANCE COMPANY ALONG WITH HONDA WILL BE SENDING OUT THEIR FIRE INSPECTORS TO IDENTIFY THE ORIGIN OF THE FIRE TO DETERMINE LIABILITY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. AFTER TWENTY MINUTES, THE VEHICLE RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BY AAA TO BALISE HONDA OF WEST WARWICK (509 QUAKER LN, WEST WARWICK, RI 02893, (401) 822-2000) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT NO FAILURE WAS FOUND. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE DEALER INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY AND STARTER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

WHILE CORNERING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AND DID NOT RIGHT ITSELF COMING OUT OF THE CORNER. OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS, THE STEERING OCCASIONALLY FAILED. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND WHEN HONDA TESTED THE CAR, NO TORQUE SENSOR FAILURES WERE NOTED. ON THAT BASIS, HONDA DECLINED TO APPLY THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERING THE FAILED STEERING. HONDA WAS NOT INTERESTED IN PURSUING THE FAILURE TO SEE IF IT MIGHT IMPROVE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL'S STEERING. HONDA CLAIMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RARE AND THAT THERE WAS NO INFORMATION OUT THERE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE VEHICLE WOULD BE SAFELY DRIVABLE WITHOUT REPAIR. THEY COULD NOT ASSURE ME THAT THE FAILURE WAS JUST A LOSS OF POWER STEERING, OF SOMETHING MORE DANGEROUS. IT WASN'T UNTIL AFTER I PAID FOR THE REPAIR, THAT I FOUND NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE.

ON FRI SEPT 29TH, 2017 I HAD AN SUA (SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION) IN MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD THAT DEVASTATED PART OF AN OFFICE BUILDING AND WRECKED MY CAR. I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND BACKED UP, HIT A 3 FOOT HIGH CONCRETE BOLLARD, WAS ANNOYED, PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, FELT AN ODD LURCH AS THOUGH THE BUMPER WAS STUCK ON SOMETHING ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOT. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND AT THAT MOMENT THE CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED TO WHAT FELT LIKE 30 OR 40 MILES AN HOUR. I TRIED TO BRAKE BUT IT FELT AS THOUGH THERE WAS NO PRESSURE UNDER MY FOOT. I GRIPPED THE STEERING WHEEL IN TERROR AND STEERED THE CAR AWAY FROM OTHER PARKED CARS AND INTO A CONCRETE WHEELCHAIR RAMP WITH RAILS AND AN OFFICE BUILDING. THE AIR BAG WENT OFF. THE CONCRETE RAMP AND OFFICE BUILDING STOPPED THE CAR IN ITS TRACKS. I PUT IT IN PARK AND GOT OUT. I'M DOING OK BUT MOSTLY VERY VERY GRATEFUL I DIDN'T HURT OR KILL ANYONE. MINOR AIRBAG BURN ON MY ARM AND A CONTUSION TO MY KNEE. I FEEL THE AIRBAG ONLY CAME OUT A LITTLE AND HIT MY LEFT ARM, NOT THE REST OF MY BODY. BUT I COULD BE WRONG ABOUT THAT. I'M GLAD BECAUSE AS A PHYSICAL THERAPIST I'VE SEEN SOME NASTY AIR BAG INJURIES. ALSO I DID NOT HAVE MY SEAT BELT ON BECAUSE I OFTEN PUT IT ON AS I LEAVE A PARKING LOT. NOT A GOOD IDEA, BUT ALSO NO NASTY SEAT BELT INJURY. JUST STIFF ARMS, PAINFUL LEFT KNEE AND NECK, A FEW DAYS LATER. I REALIZE EVERYONE IS GOING TO SAY I HAD THE FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT I WAS AT A DEAD STOP WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE TO ACCELERATE AND SERIOUSLY, AFTER ALMOST 40 YEARS OF DRIVING, I HAVE NEVER FELT ANYTHING LIKE THIS TERROR AND LOSS OF CONTROL. THE POLICEMAN WHO CAME TO THE SCENE WOULD TESTIFY TO THE FACT THAT I WAS COMPLETELY SANE AND SOBER AT THE TIME. TODAY, WE HEARD THE CAR WILL BE APPRAISED AS TOTALED. I HAVE DRIVEN AND LOVED MY HONDAS SINCE 1991 BUT NO MORE, AND I WOULD HATE TO THINK THIS CAR WOULD BE FIXED AND RESOLD.

IN AUGUST OF 2018 I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO BALISE HONDA IN WEST SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS WITH A LOSS OF POWER STEERING DURING OPERATION ON A HIGHWAY. THEY WORKED ON THE VEHICLE AND REPORTED NO RECALLS FOR LOSS OF POWER STEERING. WHEN I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE, I REGAINED POWER STEERING. ON JUNE 5, 2019, I LOST THE POWER STEERING AGAIN DURING OPERATION OF THE MOTOR VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET. I SUCCESSFULLY DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND IT CONTINUED INTO JUNE 6, 2019. PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHY ACCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED DUE TO THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING IN THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD AND NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED? THIS SAFETY ISSUE CANNOT CONTINUE...

2013 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO POWER STEERING FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. *AS THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER FOUND THE STEERING GEAR BOX TO BE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONSUMER WAS ALSO CONCERNED ABOUT THE WARRANTY FOR THE STEERING ASSEMBLY. *JS

A FEW DAYS AFTER THE RECALL WORK WAS COMPLETED THE CAR WOULD NOT START WHEN I PRESSED THE START BUTTON. IT WENT INTO ACCESSORY MODE INSTEAD OF STARTING. EVERY DAY SINCE THEN IT HAS INTERMITTENTLY STARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. IT SOMETIMES REQUIRES FOUR, FIVE OR MORE ATTEMPTS TO START THE ENGINE. WE REPLACED THE BATTERY ON MAY 4, 2019. THE INTERMITTENT STARTS CONTINUE. I FOUND SEVERAL INTERNET SITES THAT LIST OTHER 2013 HONDA ACCORD OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH NO POSITIVE SOLUTIONS.

HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING THE CAR, KEEP SAYING CHECK CHARGE SYSTEM. WENT TO MECHANICS THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR, WENT TO THE DEALER AND CHANGE THE SENSOR BUT STILL SAYING CHECK CHARGE SYSTEM. PUT THE KEY IN EVERYTHING LIGHT BUT WONT START THE CAR. EVERY NOW AND THEN IT WORKS FINE BUT SOME DAYS IT TAKE TIME FOR THE CAR TO START.

THE IGNITION SWITCH DIDN'T WORK WELL ONLY A FEW YEARS AFTER I PURCHASE THE NEW CAR (2013 HONDA ACCORD). THE FACTORY MUST HAVE A RECALL!

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR IT WOULD TURN EASY TO THE RIGHT BUT TURN HARD TO THE LEFT. WE TOOK IT IN TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPROGRAMMED THE NEUTRAL SENSOR BECAUSE IT LOST ITS PROGRAMMING THEY SAY. THE CAR DROVE GOOD FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS, BUT IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING AS BEFORE, BUT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE AND STARTED JERKING TO THE LEFT AND OVER STEERING WITH OUT WARNING. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP AND THEY NOW SAID IT NEEDED THE WHOLE STEERING RACK REPLACED FOR $2300. HOWEVER, THERE IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS PROBLEM THAT STATES THIS PROBLEM IS COVERED AND HONDA IS SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR ALL COST ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PROBLEM. AS STATED ABOVE THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE AFTER IT CAME BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP.THE SERVICE BULLETIN # IS 15-056 WHICH IS THE EPS TORQUE SENSOR WHICH THEY SAID NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED, WHICH MADE THE STEERING GOOD ONLY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. WITH THAT SAID I AM NOT SURE HOW THE EPS TORQUE SENSOR IS NOT A DEFECT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY? THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS HONDA INCORP. CLAIMS THIS PROBLEM IS NOT RELATED TO THE TORQUE SENSOR. THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA SAYS THE POWER STEERING GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BULLETING SAYS THE POWER STEERING GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THAT HONDA IS TO PAY FOR IT.

HEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE OF PARKED VEHICLE, NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN KEY WAS TURNED. TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO START CAR EACH TIME.

HONDA REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR DEFECTIVE TORQUE CONVERTERS PROBLEM. THE CAR WILL NOT START (MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE) OR AS THEY PUT IT IN THE TSB STARTER GRINDS. THERE IS PROBABLY ONLY A SMALL AMOUNT OF DEFECTIVE TORQUE CONVERTERS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT ISSUE A RECALL

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE TOOK TEN MINUTES BEFORE IT STARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, BUT A FAILURE CODE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS LATER TAKEN TO ANOTHER INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT A FAILURE CODE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER DUE TO DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR FEES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

WHEN STARTING PUSHING THE START BUTTON THE CAR WONT START UNTIL AFTER A FEW TRIES, I EVEN BROUGHT A NEW BATTERY AND THAT'S NOT THE PROBLEM.. I HAVE ABOUT A LITTLE OVER 77 THOUSAND MILES.. THIS IS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE.

WHILE BACKING OUT OF A RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY ONTO A BUSY NEIGHBORHOOD STREET, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND THE STEERING MALFUNCTION WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I ATTEMPTED TO STEER THE VEHICLE BUT THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING(EPS) WAS COUNTERING THE STEERING EFFORT. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO RESTART THE VEHICLE IN HOPES TO REGAIN STEERING CONTROL, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT OPERATE PROPERLY. THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN STEERING CONTROL WAS WITH THE CAR OFF AND IN NEUTRAL, MEANING I HAD NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE FROM ONCOMING TRAFFIC, RELYING ONLY ON THE MOMENTUM OF THE SLOPED ROAD TO HELP GUIDE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AWAY FROM TRAFFIC LANES. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED THE THE DEALER THE NEXT MORNING. SERVICE ADVISER LOOKED UP VEHICLE HISTORY AND THE RECALL FOR EPS CONTROLLER SOFTWARE HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED 2 YEARS PRIOR. HONDA HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE RACK AND PINION SYSTEM DUE TO KNOWN TORQUE SENSOR FAILURE ISSUES. ADVISER SAID IF, OBD SCAN SHOWS FAULT CODE RELATING TO TORQUE SENSOR FAILURE, HONDA WOULD COVER COMPLETE COST TO REPLACE ENTIRE RACK AND PINION SYSTEM. HOURS LATER, ADVISER CONTACTS ME AND SAYS THE SCAN SHOWS THAT IT WAS NOT THE THE TORQUE SENSOR THAT FAILED, BUT THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING COMPUTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT MY COST. I ARGUED THAT THERE WAS NO POSSIBLE WAY FOR THE CONSUMER TO PREVENT SUCH AN ISSUE FROM OCCURRING, AND THE FACT THAT A COMPUTER SYSTEM CONTROLLING THE STEERING FAILED WHILE I WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE IS AN ALARMING SAFETY ISSUE THAT AMERICAN HONDA SHOULD LOOK INTO AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BEAR THE BURDEN OF PAYING FOR SUCH A REPAIR. VEHICLE HAS 83,100 MILES, ORIGINAL OWNER AND ALL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AT SAME DEALER. NEVER HAD PRIOR STEERING ISSUES AND WAS NEVER ADVISED OF ANY POTENTIAL ISSUES. HONDA SYMPATHETICALLY ONLY AGREED TO COVER HALF THE REPAIR COST.

ENGINE KNOCKS ON START UP, KNOCKS ONLY ON FIRST START UP OR WHEN SITTING FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME, AFTER THAT NO KNOCK'

VEHICLE ONLY HAS 77,000 AND SEEMS TO TURN OFF ON IT OWN , LIGHTS ON THE VEHICLE STAYS ON BUT WHEN TRYING TO TURN ON THE VEHICLE IT WONT TURN ON

STARTER IS MALFUNCTIONING. GRINDS AT FIRST AND TYPICALLY STARTS ON SECOND OR THIRD ATTEMPT.

WHEN PUSHING START BUTTON THE ENGINE WOULD MAKE A GRINDING SCREECHING NOISE. AT 34,000 MILES STARTER WAS REPLACED. NOW AT 70,000 MILES SAME NOISE IS COMING AGAIN FROM ENGINE. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH V6 MODELS. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN 16-002 FOR THIS ISSUE HOWEVER AFTER ADDRESSING THE ISSUE ONCE ALREADY IT SEEMS TO BE A REOCCURRING ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STARTER WAS MALFUNCTIONING. WHEN THE CONTACT PRESSED THE START BUTTON, THE ENGINE WOULD NOT CRANK. AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS, THE ENGINE FINALLY STARTED. PENSACOLA HONDA (6675 PENSACOLA BLVD, PENSACOLA, FL 32505, (800) 747-3966) STATED THAT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED 24 DAYS AGO AND THEY COULD NOT FUND THE REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER ALSO STATED THAT THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO HAVE THE STARTER REPLACED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

ON 4/12/2019, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT AROUND 24:00 (MIDNIGHT) ON FREEWAY 22 WESTBOUND NEAR THE BLOCK THAT I SUDDENLY REALIZED I LOST CONTROL OF MY STEERING WHEEL WHILE I WAS TRAVELING AT 70MPH PLUS. THE STEERING WHEEL ICON LIGHT UP ON MY DASHBOARD. THIS HAPPENED SO FAST AT A CURVE AREA OF THE FREEWAY, I TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHT AND SLOWED THE CAR DOWN BY HITTING THE BREAK. THERE WERE AROUND 4 CARS TO MY RIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY REACH THE EXIT LANE TO THE RIGHT DUE TO THE CURVATURE OF THE FREEWAY TURNING LEFT BY GOING STRAIGHT. AS I SLOWED DOWN THE CAR ON THE EXIT LANE, I YANKED THE STEERING WHEEL VERY HARD TO THE LEFT THEN RIGHT TO MANEUVER THE CAR TO STAY IN THE LANE. AFTER I EXITED THE FREEWAY ON HASTER STREET, I YANKED THE STEERING WHEEL VERY HARD TO THE RIGHT TO MAKE THE TURN AND FOUND A SMALL STREET THEN COME TO A STOP. AT THIS TIME, THE STEERING WHEEL ICON STILL ILLUMINATED ON MY DASHBOARD. I TURNED OF THE CAR AFTER PUT IT TO PARK THEN TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE ICON DISAPPEARED. I GOT CONTROL OF STEERING WHEEL BACK. I PROCEEDED TO GARDEN GROVE STREET HEADING WEST TOWARD MY HOME. AT THE FIRST RED LIGHT ON GARDEN GROVE, I STOPPED AND DID NOT STEER THE WHEEL. AGAIN, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED ON ME AGAIN. THE ICON APPEARED AGAIN ON MY DASHBOARD. I AGAIN TURNED OFF AND ON THE CAR AND THE ICON DISAPPEARED AND I HAD MY CONTROL BACK. FROM THERE, I DROVE SLOWLY IN THE RIGHT LANE TO MY HOME. THIS TIME, THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. ON 4/13/2019, WHICH IS TODAY, I DROPPED OFF MY CAR AT HONDA WORLD DEALER ON 13600 BEACH BLVD, WESTMINSTER, CA 92683 AND TOLD ONE OF THE REPS ABOUT THE PROBLEM. HE DID THE INQUIRY ON MY CAR AND SYSTEM SHOWED THERE WAS A RECALL OF EPS GEARBOX REPLACEMENT AT THIS DEALERSHIP. I HOPE NHTSA WILL TAKE THIS SERIOUS AND HELP PEOPLE LIKE ME. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL.

PUSH BUTTON START IS NOT RESPONDING ON A REGULAR BASIS. WHEN BUTTON IS PUSHED,THE BATTERY IS ACTIVATED AND ALL LIGHTS AND RADIO ARE OPERATIONAL, HOWEVER THE CAR DOES NOT START. BATTERY HAS BEEN TESTED AND ALL CONNECTIONS SEEM TO BE WORKING PROPERLY. V6 MODELS OF THIS CAR HAVE HAD A SERVICE BULLETIN 16-002 ISSUED FOR STARTER, HOWEVER MY CAR IS A FOUR CYLINDER AND THEREFORE NOT ELIGIBLE TO BE LOOKED AT UNDER SERVICE BULLETIN.. ISSUE CAN HAPPEN AFTER SEVERAL STARTS DURING THE DAY, AFTER SITTING IN COLD OR GARAGE. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE WHETHER THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING OR NOT. CAR HAS 102,000 MILES ON IT, AND IS IN GOOD CONDITION. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THIS SAME SITUATION WITH MY MODEL, SEEMS AS THOUGH IT IS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE AS WITH THE V6. THIS IS AN ONGOING AND RANDOM ISSUE. I HAVE NEVER BEEN UNABLE TO START THE CAR AFTER SEVERAL TRIES, BUT NOT SURE IF THIS LUCK WILL END SOON.

STARTER STOPPED WORKING.

THE BATTERY SENSOR HAS GAPS WHICH COULD LEAD TO A FIRE OR OTHER DANGEROUS COMPLICATIONS. THE CAR OFTEN DOESN'T START. THERE HAVE BEEN RECALLS ON THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR BUT NOT THIS VIN.

ON WEDNESDAY, APRIL 3, 2019 WE MADE A 600 MILE TRIP FROM COOKEVILLE, TN TO SHELBY TOWNSHIP, MI WITH NO PROBLEMS NOTED. THE NEXT MORNING, BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY I NOTICED THE STEERING WAS NORMAL AT ONE POINT, I ROTATED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND THE WHEEL CONTINUED TURNING BY ITSELF WHILE THE CAR WAS NOT EVEN IN MOTION. I ROTATED THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT AND MET WITH RESISTANCE. I ROTATED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND THE WHEEL STARTED TURNING BY ITSELF. I THEN NOTICED THE EPS LIGHT WAS ON. I CONTINUED TO ROTATE THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH. I GOT TO THE CENTER POSITIONED AND THE WHEEL THEN TURNED RAPIDLY TO THE RIGHT BY ITSELF . I IMMEDIATELY DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST HONDA DEALER. ON THE WAY THERE THE WHEEL VIOLENTLY TURNED TO THE RIGHT AND NEARLY CAUSED ME TO RUN INTO THE CURB AT 35 MPH.I THEN ARRIVED AT JIM RIEHL HONDA IN STERLING HEIGHTS , MICHIGAN. THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A "POSITION SENSOR". THEY RELATED TO ME THAT THEY HAD DOWNLOADED THE SOFTWARE AND THIS SEEMED TO HAVE CLEARED THE PROBLEM. WHILE DRIVING BACK TO MY NEXT DESTINATION (10 MILES) THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM RESURFACED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT, WHICH WAS CLOSED. I LEFT A MESSAGE THAT I WAS BRINGING THE CAR IN MONDAY MORNING, APRIL 8, 2019.

THE VISOR ON THE DRIVER SIDE SUDDENLY POPPED AND NOW IT KEEPS FALLING, IMPAIRING VISIBILITY. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH OTHER HONDA'S AND IF THAT'S THE CASE, YOU NEED TO INVESTIGATE THIS AND PUT A RECALL ON IT BECAUSE NOT ONLY IS IT ANNOYING, BUT IT IS A HAZARD THAT MOST DEFINITELY IMPAIRS DRIVING. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS!!!

DRIVER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR NOT WORKING

THE DEGREE OF INCLINATION OF THE FRONT SEATS HEAD RESTRAINTS IS SO PRONOUNCED THAT THE DRIVER AND THE PASSENGER ARE FORCED TO ASSUME AN EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE POSTURE THAT CAN RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE SPINE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHEN THE PUSH TO START BUTTON WAS ENGAGED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTACT HEARD AN INDISTINGUISHABLE, ABNORMAL NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HARDIN COUNTY HONDA (5608 N DIXIE HWY, ELIZABETHTOWN, KY 42701, (270) 765-2141) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STARTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 76,000.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY. THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BACK WAS MOVED FORWARD TO ALLOW ACCESS TO THE BACK SEAT. THEN THE DRIVERS SIDE SEAT BACK WOULD NOT LOCK IN AN UPRIGHT POSITION. WITH NO SEAT BACK IN ITS UPRIGHT POSITION, IT WAS NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE WELD ON THE SEAT FRAME THAT ALLOWED THE BACK TO BE LOCKED IN ITS UPRIGHT POSITION WAS BROKEN. THE DEALER REPLACED THE BROKEN SEAT FRAME. HE FRAME COST $1320 AND LABOR WAS $409.

TAKATA AIR BAG

THE CAR WON'T START. IN PARK PUT KEY IN IGNITION AND TURN, JUST A CLICK NOISE. CAR WON'T START. HAPPENS DAILY SOMETIMES M TURN THE KEY SOMETIMES TWICE, SOMETIMES MORE THAN 10 TIMES. NEW CAR LOW MILES. I KNOW THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHERS WITH THIS ISSUE!

CAR NOT STARTING. HAVING TO JUMPSTART PERIODICALLY. REPLACED BATTERY EVEN THOUGH BATTERY REGISTERED GOOD. REALIZING IT'S IN THE ELECTRIC START SWITCH. I BUILT THESE CARS, I'M TROUBLESHOOTING NOW. HAVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT MY EXACT ISSUE. BOUGHT IT NEW, HIGHWAY MILES BETWEEN OH AND FL. 69K. SHOULDN'T BE HAVING THIS ISSUE. ALWAYS SERVICED AND MAINTAINED. I DON'T FEEL THIS SHOULD COME OUT OF MY POCKET. FIRST TIME I EXPERIENCED IT, WAS OUT WITH FRIENDS, PAID FOR A TAXI TO GET HOME, JUMPSTARTED NEXT DAY TO GET IT HOME. THE SEVERAL OTHER TIMES, I WAS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND WAS ABLE TO JUMPSTART IT HERE. IT'S IN THE ELECTRIC START. PURCHASED BATTERY 3/9/19, STILL HAVING DIFFICULTY WITH IT TURNING OVER. $164. FOR A NEW BATTERY. WHICH I KNEW IT WASN'T BATTERY, FIANC HAD IT REPLACED WORRYING ABOUT ME BEING STRANDED. I CAN SEE THIS IS GOING TO BE A PROBLEM FOR ME. I FIRST NOTICED IT JULY 2018. WOULDN'T START IN OH, I THOUGHT I HAD JUST LEFT MY TRUNK OPEN TOO LONG WHILE PACKING.

UPON START UP, ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD LIT UP. FCW FAILURE NOTED ON THE DIGITAL DISPLAY. ACCELERATION NON EXISTENT IN THIS STATE. SEVERAL RESTARTS (34 WAS THE MAX), NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH. CAR RAN FINE. DEALER DIAGNOSED IT AS A TIMING CHAIN THAT HAD EXPANDED. SEEMS TO BE FIXED. (ONLY BEEN TWO DAYS). I THINK IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE THE LACK OF POWER COULD MANIFEST ITSELF AT ANY TIME. IMAGINE GETTING ON A HIGHWAY WITH NO POWER TO ACCELERATE.

I HAVE 2013 ACCORD EXL 40K MILES, AND HAD INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEM FROM LAST FEW WEKKS, DOESN'T MATTER IF IT'S COLD OR HOT, SOMETIMES IT JUST DOESN'T START. I LEAVE IT ALONE FOR ABOUT A MIN OR TWO. BATTERY IS NOT THE PROBLEM AND I'VE ALREADY HAD IT TESTED. TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE, THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE. ANYBODY ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM? WHAT SHOULD I DO AT THIS POINT?

STARTER FAILURE, STARTER JUST CLICKS. I HAVE THE SAME STARTER PROBLEM AS ALL THE OTHER COMPLIANTS FOR A 2013 HONDA ACCORD.

IN MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD THE NO KEY ICON APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD WHEN THE CAR IS ON THEN IT EVENTUALLY GOES OFF ALL WHILE THE KEY IS INSIDE OF THE CAR. NOW WHILE THE CAR IS ON THE WARNING BELL GOES OFF AND NO KEY IS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH, YET AGAIN ALL OF THIS WHILE THE KEY IS INSIDE OF THE CAR.

OVER TIME, DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SUN VISORS NO LONGER FOLD UP FLUSH WITH CEILING. THEY INSTEAD SAG; PARTIALLY BLOCKING DRIVER'S VIEW. THIS IS DUE TO A FAULTY HINGE SYSTEM THAT, WITH REPEATED USE, BECOMES DETACHED FROM THE VISOR.

REAR WHEEL BEARINGS DETERIORATED, CAUSING LOUD NOISES FROM THE REAR AT SPEEDS AS LOW AS 10 MILES PER HOUR. HAD TO BE REPLACED ON BOTH SIDES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE, SHE WAS ALERTED THAT HER VEHICLE WAS ON FIRE IN THE PARKING LOT. THE CONTACT WAS UNSURE IF A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL POLICE DEPARTMENT. THE CONTACT'S INSURANCE COMPANY DEEMED THE VEHICLE TOTALED AFTER THE POLICE INSPECTION. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. *TT CONSUMER STATED SHE RECEIVED A RECALL FOR A BATTERY PART THAT COULD CAUSE FIRE. CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR AN OIL CHANGE TO HONDA DEALER BUT PART WAS NOT REPLACED. CONSUMER STATES WHILE IN THE DOCTORS OFFICE, CAR STARTED A FIRE IN THE PARKING LOT. FIRE WAS EXTENSIVE BUT MANUFACTURER CLAIMS IT IS NOT THEIR PROBLEM.*JB

MY 2013 ACCORDS STEERING JUST STOPPED WORKING WHEN I WAS DRIVING THE CAR ON 1/12/19, I AM LUCKY THAT I WASN'T GOING VERY FAST, I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. ALSO GLAD THAT I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, TO GET IT OUT OF THE WAY. HOW CAN THIS NOT BE A RECALL??

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, AN ABNORMAL NOISE WAS HEARD UNDER THE HOOD OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT NOTICED SMOKE AND FIRE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. A FIRE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT STATED THAT THE BATTERY EXPLODED, WHICH CAUSED THE FAILURE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN AUTO COLLISION LOT. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

CAR HAS ISSUES STARTING AND WITH 60K MILES ONLY. THERE MIGHT BE A DEFECTIVE BATTERY SENSOR OR STARTER. ALTERNATOR CHECKED AND BATTERY CHECKED WITH NO ISSUES. IGNITION WILL NEED TO BE TURNED A FEW TIMES BEFORE CAR STARTS RIGHT UP. NO LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD INDICATING ANY ISSUES MECHANICALLY. SOMETHING THAT NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO AS MY VEHICLE IS MAINTAINED REGULARLY AND SERVICED BY HONDA. SOMETIMES IT STARTS RIGHT UP AND OTHER TIMES IT TAKES 3 TO 5 TURNS ON THE IGNITION FOR THE CAR TO START.

AFTER EXPERIENCING HARD STARTING WHERE KEY WOULD NOT ACTIVATE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE FINALLY WOULD NOT START. AFTER DEALERSHIP INVESTIGATION, THE DEALERSHIP INDICATED STARTER SOLENOID AND STARTER MOTOR WERE FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. STARTER MOTOR ON A VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 42,000 MILES SHOULD NOT REQUIRE REPLACEMENT. HONDA HAS A LARGER ISSUE WITH STARTER MOTORS IN MY OPINION. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN IT WOULD NOT START.

VEHICLE HAS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION WHICH HAS CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF OIL IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. THIS HAS NOW DAMAGED OTHER VEHICLE PARTS LIKE CATALYTIC CONVERTER.

ISSUE WITH PUSH BUTTON START. STARTED EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENTLY WHEN PUSHING BUTTON, CAR WON'T START. TYPICALLY HIT THE BUTTON AGAIN AND CAR STARTS. NOW, HOWEVER, IT IS TAKING A FEW TO SEVERAL TIMES OF PUSHING THE START BUTTON FOR CAR TO START. THIS CAN HAPPEN AFTER BEING TURNED OFF FOR A MINUTE TO OVERNIGHT. THERE IS NO PATTERN. I'VE SEEN THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OWNERS OF THE '13 HONDA ACCORD WHEN I LOOK ONLINE. WHY HASN'T HONDA TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY & ISSUED A RECALL. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF YOU GET STUCK SOMEWHERE & CAR WON'T START. (COPY/PASTE- SAME PROBLEM!!)

THERE THREE WARNING INDICATORS THAT COME ON MY DASH AND WILL NOT GO OFF. THE INDICATORS ARE THE POWER STEERING SENSOR, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM AND THE VSA ENGAGED INDICATOR. I HAVE 4 FRIENDS WITH HONDA ACCORDS RANGING FROM 2013 - 2015 AND WE HAVE ALL EXPERIENCED THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN I TALK TO A MECHANIC AS WELL AS HONDA NO ONE KNOWS WHY THESE INDICATORS ARE ILLUMINATED. NO ISSUES CAN BE FOUND TO WHY THESE LIGHTS WILL NOT GO OFF. THE VEHICLE STARTS IN THE AM AND THESE LIGHTS ARE NOT ON AND WHEN I DRIVE ABOUT 30 MILES THESE LIGHTS COME ON AND STAY THE REMAINING TIME. THESE LIGHTS STAY ON, HIGHWAY AND STREET DRIVING AS WELL AS SITTING STATIONARY.

STARTER IS BAD WILL NOT START BROUGHT CAR TO A MECHANIC. HE RECOMMENDED ME TO GET A NEW STARTER. CHECKED BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WELL WITHIN WORKING PARAMETERS.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN HILL ON A SLIGHTLY INCLINED CITY STREET WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY VEERED TO THE LEFT. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE STEERING AND IN PANIC WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE CAR BEFORE CROSSING SEVERAL LANES AND HITTING A BUILDING. THERE WERE INJURIES TO MYSELF AND MY PASSENGER. THE CAR WAS A TOTAL LOSS AND THE BUILDING SUSTAINED STRUCTURAL DAMAGE. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM

THE HONDA ACCORD POWER STEERING COMPLETELY SHUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I EXPERIENCED THIS VERY FRIGHTENING SITUATION YESTERDAY WITH MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD V6 WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 40MPH IN A STRAIGHT LINE I SUDDENLY LOST POWER WITH NO APPARENT REASON. I HAD THE EPS LIGHT SHOW ON MY DASH. I PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE CAR BUT WITH NO SUCCESS THE POWER STEERING WOULDN'T TURN ON IT WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. I DID NOT SEE NO FLUID LEAKS UNDER THE CAR AND THE POWER STEERING PUMP HAS PLENTY OF FLUID.

TWO NIGHTS AGO I WAS DRIVING ON I-75 BACK HOME FROM WORK , I WAS GOING SPEED LIMIT 70-75 MPH AND THE CAR SUDDENLY STARTED "BOGGING DOWN", DIDN'T WANT TO GO ABOVE 30 MPH AND A NUMBER OF DASH LIGHTS WERE ON: SERVICE ENGINE, POWER STEERING, TIRE PRESSURE AND MAYBE TRACTION CONTROL. I TURN OFF THE CAR, TURN IT BACK ON, AND THE LIGHTS STILL ON. I DRIVE SHORT DISTANCE HOME AT 25-30 MPH. THE FOLLOWING MORNING I LOOKED AT THE CAR, DIDN'T SEE ANYTHING WRONG I FELTED VERY UNSAFE FROM CAR SUDDENLY SLOW IN THE MIDDLE OF HWY I-75 GOING FROM 70-75 MPH TO 25-30 MPH, THIS HAPPENED WITH OUT ANY WARNING OR ENOUGH TIME TO PULL OVER THE SHOULDER, DEFINITELY A BAD ACCIDENT WOULD HAPPENED HERE.

TAKATA RECALL STARTER MOTOR (MITSUBA) (V6) STARTER GRINDS OR SPIN AT STARTUP

HAD TO REPLACE THE STARTER AS IT STARTED GOING OUT WITH JUST OVER 51,000 MILES ON THE CAR

I HAVE 2013 ACCORD LX 55K MILES, AND HAD INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEM FROM LAST FEW MONTHS, DOESN'T MATTER IF IT'S COLD OR HOT, SOMETIMES IT JUST DOESN'T START. I LEAVE IT ALONT FOR ABOUT A MIN OR TWO WITH KEY OUT AND THEN IT'LL START, SOMETIMES LONGER. BATTERY IS NOT THE PROBLEM AND I'VE ALREADY TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM CHECK THE BATTERY AND THE STARTING SYSTEM. CHECKED OUT OK, THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE. ANYBODY ELSE HAVE THIS PROBLEM? NOW IT WON'T START AT ALL. I FOUND THE RECALL IS FOR V6 MODELS ONLY. WHAT SHOULD I DO AT THIS POINT?

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE OF PARKED VEHICLE, NOTHING HAPPENED WHEN KEY WAS TURNED. TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO START CAR EACH TIME. STARTER HAD FAILED AND WAS REPLACED.

ISSUE WITH PUSH BUTTON START. STARTED EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENTLY WHEN PUSHING BUTTON, CAR WON'T START. TYPICALLY HIT THE BUTTON AGAIN AND CAR STARTS. NOW, HOWEVER, IT IS TAKING A FEW TO SEVERAL TIMES OF PUSHING THE START BUTTON FOR CAR TO START. THIS CAN HAPPEN AFTER BEING TURNED OFF FOR A MINUTE TO OVERNIGHT. THERE IS NO PATTERN. I'VE SEEN THIS PROBLEM HAS HAPPENED TO MANY OWNERS OF THE '13 HONDA ACCORD WHEN I LOOK ONLINE. WHY HASN'T HONDA TAKEN RESPONSIBILITY & ISSUED A RECALL. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF YOU GET STUCK SOMEWHERE & CAR WON'T START.

SINCE PURCHASE IN 2017. WE HAVE HAD TO GET ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE MULTIPLE TIMES TO JUMP THE BATTERY BECAUSE VEHICLE WOULDN'T START. WE HAVE SPOKE TO HONDA THAT PERHAPS THIS VIN# VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN ON A RECALL...BUT NOT INCLUDED ON A THE 11/8/17 KGO RECALL. WE THEN TURN TO LOCAL PEPBOYS TO DO A 1ST DIAGNOSTIC ON 10/2/2018 AND SHOWED DAMAGED BATTERY AND SO WE PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY AND THEN 2 WEEKS LATER ON 11/2/18 HAD TO HAVE TWO JUMP STARTS THAT WEEK AND WE RETURNED TO PEPBOYS FOR A 2ND DIAGNOSTICS THAT PINPOINTED SOMETHING CAUSING BATTERY DAMAGE. INSTALLED A NEW 2ND BATTERY WHICH BRINGS US TO WHERE WE ARE CURRENTLY. IN CONCLUSION, WE ARE FEARFUL AS WE DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AND PARK AND WORRY THAT WE ARE GOING TO BE LEFT STRANDED SOME WHERE WHEN WE GO TO CRANK VEHICLE OR WORSE A FIRE DUE TO SOME ELECTRICAL SHORT. WE BELIEVE THAT HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE A VOUCHER TO TAKE VEHICLE TO LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AT THEIR COST TO DETERMINE THE ROOT CAUSE SINCE THEY SHOULD KNOW THEIR VEHICLE THE BEST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER AN HOUR BUT FAILED TO TURN OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AS THE STARTER NEEDING REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DEALER HOLLER HONDA (2211 N SEMORAN BLVD, ORLANDO, FL 32807 (877)-872-9906) WAS CONTACTED AND A DIAGNOSTIC APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,774.

POWER STEERING FAILED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH ON HIGHWAY, LUCKILY ONE EXIT FROM A DEALER. EPS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND FIXED IT FOR 2900.00. WARRANTY HAS SINCE BEEN EXTENDED FROM 5 TO 13 YEARS FOR THIS ISSUE ON MY SPECIFIC VEHICLE.

AT 61XXX MILES THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO NO LONGER START RELIABLY. SOMETIMES I WOULD PUSH THE START BUTTON AND IT WOULD START NORMALLY AND SOMETIMES I WOULD JUST HEAR A SINGLE CLICK BUT THE ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER. WHEN THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START IT WOULD SOMETIMES START IF YOU RETRIED IT, BUT USUALLY IT WOULD ONLY RESTART AFTER MULTIPLE PUSHES OF THE START BUTTON. SOME DAYS I COULD NOT START IT AFTER 20 OR MORE ATTEMPTS. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK OF THIS WHEN I FINALLY GOT IT STARTED I DROVE IT TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC'S SHOP AND LEFT IT FOR THEM TO DEAL WITH. THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A BAD STARTER, REPLACED THE STARTER AND NOW IT WORKS OK. I HAD TESTED THE CAR BATTERY AND IT HAD 13.6 VOLTS. I TESTED THE KEY FOB BATTERIES AND THEY HAD WELL OVER THEIR ADVERTISED 3V . I READ THE HONDA ACCORD FORUMS AND FOUND MANY, MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE 6TH HONDA I HAVE OWNED AND NEVER REPLACED A STARTER ON ANY OF THEM - 3 OR 4 OF THEM HAVE GONE NEARLY 200K MILES WITH NO STARTER PROBLEM. JUDGING BY THE NUMBER OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE REPORTED BAD STARTERS IN THE FIRST 75000 MILES I WOULD HAVE TO SAY HONDA, WAS EITHER TRYING TO SAVE MONEY BY USING CHEAP STARTERS OR HAS A BAD SUPPLIER FOR THEIR STARTERS. WHATEVER IT IS, THEY ARE PUTTING THEIR CUSTOMERS IND SOME VERY INCONVENIENT AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATIONS.

I OWN A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE POWER STEERING (EPS) WILL GO OFF RANDOMLY. IN THE PAST WEEK IT WENT OFF ABOUT 6 OR 7 TIMES PER DAY. IT WILL SHUT OFF EVEN ON THE HIGHWAY WHICH MAKES IT VERY DANGEROUS TO GET CONTROL OF THE CAR. THIS HAPPENS DAILY.

MY CAR WILL NOT START AT TIMES, I MAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS AND AFTER 4 OR 5 TRYS IT THEM STARTS.

I HAVE BEEN STRANDED ABOUT 15 TIMES DUE TO MY CAR NOT STARTING AND HAVING SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS ON. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW AND HAVE COMPLETED ALL THE NECESSARY SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. I SHOULD NOT BE EXPERIENCING THIS. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, SEVERAL HONDA OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THUS SAME ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM IS STARTING TO DIMINISH MY QUALITY OF LIFE. I HAVE TO WORK FOR A LIVING AND NOT HAVING A RELIABLE VEHICLE HAS CAUSED ME TO BE LATE OR MISS WORK. HONDA IS SUPPOSED TO BE ONE OF THE RELIABLE VEHICLES BUT THAT IS NOT THE CASE FOR ME. I TRULY BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A LEMON. WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED, MY VEHICLE WAS OFF AND STATIONARY. I WANT TO STRESS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED 15 TIMES AND I WISH I HAD STUMBLED ON THIS SITE THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE LOGGED EACH INCIDENT. IT DOES NOT FEEL GOOD TO BE STRANDED WITH A BROKEN VEHICLE.

BOUGHT THIS CAR AT THE END OF ITS 3 YEAR WARRANTY 2 YEARS AGO. I IMMEDIATELY HAD TO HAVE THE STARTER AND BATTERY REPLACED (09/16). CAR BEGAN NOT STARTING WHEN THE PUSH BUTTON IS ENGAGED, STARTER WAS REPLACED AGAIN IN (03/18). NOW IN SEPTEMBER THE CAR BEGAN TAKING 5 OR 6 PRESSES OF THE START BUTTON TO START. DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY (09/18). ONE WEEK LATER THE PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN AND THE STARTER WAS REPLACED AGAIN (10/18).

2013 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO RECALL FOR PLACEMENT OF ELECTRIC POWER STEERING RACK. *AS *TR THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO BE REIMBURSED FOR A STEERING FAILURE THAT WAS ONCE INCLUDED IN AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM. THE CONSUME WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. *JS *JS

WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 40 MILES PER HOUR THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING. IN OCTOBER 2016 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THE REPAIR WAS DONE AS PER WARRANTY EXTENTION 15-056. THE CAR HAD 51693 MILES. I NOW HAVE 75000 MILE ON THE VEHICLE AND THE THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED 2 TIMES WITHIN ABOUT 20 MINUTES. I READ A REPORT THAT THE NHTSA DETERMINED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS DECREASING IN FREQUENCY AND THAT THE PROBLEM WAS WITH EARLY EQUIPMENT THAT HAD BEEN REPAIRED. OBVIOUSLY THIS IS NOT THE CASE.

MULTIPLE TIMES, WHILE DRIVING, MY POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT AND IT BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME TO TURN THE WHEEL. I HAD TO PULL OVER WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY AND RESTART MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD TO TEMPORARILY FIX THE ISSUE. THIS ONLY HAPPENS WHILE I AM DRIVING.

INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEMS. CAR HAS NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR IS GOOD. PLEASE SEE SAME COMPLAINTS ONLINE. ONE TIME I DROVE HOME FROM WORK FOR ABOUT 15 MILES, TURNED OFF CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY, TRIED TO START THE CAR AND WONT START.

I WAS IN A PARKING LOT TRYING TO PARK MY CAR IN A SPOT ON THE RIGHT SIDE. AS I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AT A NORMAL PRESSURE, THE CAR JUST STARTED ACCELERATING AND DID NOT STOP. I FIRST SLIGHTLY HIT A CAR WHICH HAD JUST PULLED OUT OF A PARKING SPOT. I TRIED TO USE THE BRAKES MULTIPLE TIMES AND TRIED TO SHIFT GEARS TO MAKE ANYTHING HAPPEN WHICH COULD HELP STOP THE CAR. IT WAS OUT OF CONTROL AND IN ORDER TO AVOID A CLIFF, I VEERED TO THE RIGHT AFTER PASSING ABOUT 30 PARKED CARS AND HIT AN EMBANKMENT WITH A TREE ON IT. MY CAR CRASHED INTO A PARKED LEXUS SUV WHICH THEN WAS LIFTED AND MOVED TO THE RIGHT AND HIT ANOTHER PARKED CAR. THE AIR BAGS CAME OUT AND THE CAR STOPPED. MY WIFE AND I AND OTHER PEOPLE COULD HAVE DIED IF THERE WERE ANY PEDESTRIANS IN THE PARKING LOT. WE BOTH HAVE MANY LIFE THREATENING INJURIES AND CANNOT DRIVE DUE TO THOSE FOR A LONG TIME. IN ADDITION WE ARE NOW QUITE FRIGHTENED. THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL AND I COULD NOT STOP IT.

I HAD ABOUT 3 TO 4 TIMES THAT THE CAR DOESN'T START AT FIRST TIME THIS YEAR. THOSE TIMES, I HAD TO TRY FOUR OR FIVE TIMES. NOW I THINK OF IT IT STARTED TO HAPPEN AFTER REPLACING THE RECALLED PART, BATTERY SENSOR ON 3/23/2018. ON 9/10/2018, I TRIED SO MANY TIME TO START THE CAR BUT HAD TO TOWED TO HONDA DEALER TO TAKE A LOOK. NEXT DAY, I WAS TOLD THE STARTER NEEDED THE STARTER REPLACEMENT COSTING $850, AND MY CAR ONLY HAS 35600 MILES ON IT.

WHILE DRIVING, THE POWER STEERING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND I LOST POWER STEERING. LUCKILY I WAS DRIVING LOCALLY SO GAIN CONTROL OF VEHICLE QUICKLY.

EPS LIGHT CAME ON. WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER. FIRST TIME HAPPENED 09/05/2018, SECOND TIME- 09/06/2018. JUST HAD A RECALL WORK DONE RE: BATTERY ON 08/30/2018. COULD IT BE RELATED? I SEE MANY OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THE SAME ISSUE. SHOULDN'T THERE BE A RECALL? LOOKS LIKE THERE WERE ACCIDENTS CAUSED BY THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE SHOP YESTERDAY, PAID $160- NOTHING WAS FOUND WRONG. I FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING LIKE THIS. PLEASE RESPOND.

I HAD PULLED INTO A PARKING STOP AND STOPPED. I WAS ABOUT TO REVERSE TO PARK STRAIGHT WHEN MY CAR SHOT FORWARD. THE BRAKES WERE NOT WORKING AND THE CAR ACCELERATED FORWARD UNTIL IT WAS STOPPED BY A BRICK COLUMN. I WAS IN A PARKING LOT IN FRONT OF A RETAIL STRIP CENTER.

FAULTY STARTER: HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR MORE THAN A YEAR. INCREASINGLY, IT HAS TAKEN MORE THAN ONE TIME TO START THE CAR. AT TIMES IT HAS TAKEN MORE THAN 8 TIMES PUSHING THE "PUSH-TO-START" BUTTON TO GET THE CAR TO START. BASED ON MY RESEARCH THIS HAS BEEN A KNOW ISSUE FOR HONDA FOR MORE THAN 2 YEARS, BUT THEY HAVE YET TO ISSUE A RECALL TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IT COST ME ~$650 TO REPLACE THE STARTER.

CAR CLICKS BEFORE STARTING, CUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, STEERING LOCKS WHEN CAR CUTS OFF. I DRIVE A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY FAMILY. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION TO THE LIVES OF MYSELF, FAMILY AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. THIS IS A DAILY OCCURRENCE. SPEED VARIES WHEN THIS HAPPENS. SOMETIMES IT OCCURS FROM A COLD OR WARMED START.
