Power Steering did not work when I went out to my car. I took it to Honda and they replaced the power steering rod While I was driving it power steering failed again. Took it back to Honda - replaced electrical panel While I was driving power steering went out again. Back in shop with Honda and saying needs electrical harness repair. Dangerous to drive as you have no control over steering car while driving
The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact stated that since she owned the vehicle, the battery had failed on three separate occasions. The first two batteries were replaced by independent mechanics; however, on the latest failure, the contact had the vehicle towed to a dealer. Despite another battery replacement, the failure occurred again five months later. The contact sent an email to the manufacturer and received a case number. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was unknown.
Honda Accord LX 2015 engine sputtered and failed 3 times while in idle with A/C on then won’t start after that. Battery, alternator confirmed good. Use medium grade gas BP, lights on, drives well after it starts. Changed battery-mechanic says good. So why does this keep happening? Am frustrated as it is expensive to change out the parts. Honda has lost its good reputation. Taking back to Honda dealer in Miami to fix again.
With no warning, the battery failed. The car started up again with a jump from AAA. I drove it for 45 minutes. Turned off the car and it would not start again. Had to spend almost $200 to get a new battery on the spot. I have not been to a dealer or service center. I was lucky to be in a position to get a new battery quickly. It may have affected my safety if I'd been out of the city and unable to get help.
The VSA Modulator-Control Unit failed at only 25K miles
Everything in the car shuts off and on all of a sudden; this includes the screen the air all the lights and the car kind of jerks. it goes back almost immediately but I'm afraid it will do this on the freeway. It has done this at least 4 times in the last month.
Car does not start all the time. After a few attempts it will start. Some times it starts without issue. This vehicle is unreliable and can leave you stranded. Regretting my purchase. Car only has 44k miles. Pathetic
The car will not start. Steering wheel and gearshift are locked. Beeps and flashes various symbols when attempting to start. Have done trouble shooting processes in drivers manual with no success. Car worked fine last night. Cannot get car to do anything. Dangerous and frustrating--what if it happened while traveling? If it won't operate, depending when it occurred could compromise safety--parked in a public area, etcetera. Car is up to date with maintenance and vehicle inspection. Presently waiting for car to be towed to dealer.
Ignition switch failed and had to be replaced. Car only has 65,000 miles. This must be a manufacturing defect, but American Honda refuses to accept any responsibility.
The Electronic Power Steering fails constantly and at random times during various conditions.
My 2015 Honda Accord V6 EXL auto transmission will not start. When I press the start button with my foot on the break, the car does not start
The engine makes a very loud rattle at cold startup for about 1 to 3 seconds. It only makes this noise when starting the car for the first time that day, unless it has been sitting for 5+ hours, then will rattle again at cold startup. Also, The engine burns 1 quart of oil approximately every 2500-3000 miles requiring additional oil to be added.
The shucks began shuddering at highway speeds and upon stopping within 1 mile of first incident the vehicle was unable to move under its own power. Further inspection of the car by the Honda dealership determined the transmission failed.
Car intermittently won't start
While driving, the steering wheel light started to come on and started to make a noise, then the steering wheel itself got stuck and could not turn the vehicle. This we were so close to crashing putting in risk myself and my kids at the time. Since then, I can’t drive it due to the steering wheel locking.
While driving with no warning the power steering fails. The warning light then came on stating power system failure. Then just as quickly it began to work again before I was able to pull safely to the side. After checking the manual I set an appointment with honda of Huntington. They stated there was no error code for the steering and that I should drive the car till the light stays on. After that I took the car to my independent mechanic who also couldn't reproduce the problem. Two days later we drove the car for 1 hour and it happened again. Each time it was failing it returned to normal. This is an accident waiting to happen.
This car started having starting problem , I replaced the battery but that didn't help at all. It take two to three attempts to start after driving a little while.
Well it started last year I was driving and out of no where my wheel pulled and got very stiff and I realized I had no power steering. I killed it cranked it and it work then out of no where it happened again and now it works about a three days out the week Im afraid this may cause a accident with me or with me and my family in the vehicle.
The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the power steering failed, and the steering wheel was stiff and difficult to turn. The parking brake failed to disengage when the contact attempted to drive the vehicle. The dealer was made aware of the failure and scheduled an upcoming appointment for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 95,000.
Honda currently has a recall for Honda Accords 2013-2015, #20V769. I happen to have a 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid, but because my particular VIN is not currently shown as affected, they refuse to reimburse me and fix the other side. This issue is related to drive shafts that will break due to corrosion. I was able to fix the broken driver side left axle, but this is clearly a sign that my vehicle was also affected by this manufacture error as it happened the same exact way they described it on the recall. This could have been a much worse accident, luckily I was at a stop sign when it snapped. It simply snapped, no warnings, no lights, nothing.
Driving at Interstate speeds, I had the engine suddenly **THUNK** and lose power. I limped it to the side of the road to get out of traffic. I went to investigate and the vehicle would not even idle. It just shut off After having it towed back to local service company, looked at, and the dealership I bought it at to look at, I am told the main bearing failed on the connecting rod. The thunks I hear is the rod spinning in there, shearing off metal shavings that are now all over inside the engine bay. Honda has a TSB out for the car, for this exact issue, but my VIN number somehow doesn't fit in their window. Component that failed - Main bearing on the Connecting Rod Safety of myself and others - Gave out while driving highway speeds, which caused the car to lose power to keep it at highway speeds. Had to limp it to the shoulder Reproduction of problem - Yes, at an independent service center and a dealership service center Component inspected - not by any of the listed people, just the service centers Warning lamps, messages, symptoms - None whatsoever I have amazon receipts of items purchased for all at home maintenance done on the vehicle since it was bought new. I do not have a scanner handy for the service center documentation and receipts
Purchased Used 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid from Dealer March 25, 2021. Vehicle ran clean for two months, but now in the last month and a half, vehicle randomly will not start on 3 separate occasions. During these incidences vehicle will also not give power to door locks, etc, leaving driver stranded with no way to lock themselves in the vehicle for safety if necessary. Vehicle is keyless/push-button start. Battery tests good. ***Incident 1: Vehicle did not start on 88 degree day. No accessory power either. Would not power door locks. Left my 17 year old daughter stranded in excessive heat, in a Metro area parking lot until I could get to her two hours later. Multiple attempts to start the vehicle/pressing brake/start button with key fob next to start button. Replaced batteries in Key fobs with no change. Vehicle started with a jump. ***Incident 2: Similar to 1st incident, vehicle randomly would not start, no accessory power or power to door locks. Again, very hot and humid evening. Multiple attempts were made to push-button-start the vehicle with key fob well within area to start it. Called someone to come get us but continued attempts to start the car. It randomly started after about 45 minutes. Battery indicator on dashboard indicates good charge on battery. Left our family stranded in a rural area in the dark with excessive heat during this time. ***Incident 3: Vehicle will not start when pressing brake, start button, and key fob close by. My daughter was stranded again in 89 degrees outside. I picked her up with no success in starting the vehicle. Car's still sitting. ** There is no 'suspicious' activity of the vehicle before this happens. Completely random. New batteries in fobs. Concerned this could develop into a bigger problem of these models I've discovered; stalling while driving. (??) It appears our problem is large enough that there are public videos online about this. Hopefully we can rectify this as it poses a risk to stranded motorists left alone.

Honda Accord Touring Hybrid 2015. I was parked in front of a building and the car speed up and crashed against a wall. I was not stepping on the gas or the breaks. The car was on parking. I got injured and the airbags deployed. I did some research on the internet and this has happened before. I am glad I am fine.
On May, 25, 2021 my family were on the highway and all of a sudden the car started stalling. In which the accelerater started braking instead of moving, the car was slowing with all the lights turning on on the dashboard. FCU failure message flashing with engine sign, Ldw, Fcw, tire pressure, stability sign, steering sign all came on. It almost caused us to have an accident. My kids my wife everyones were screaming because other cars and trucks around us, and we didn't know what's going on with out car and other cars were honking at us. We were all so scared and my wife was crying, my kids were crying. We signal with our hands out of the car to get to the shoulder and stopped the car. We thought we are going to die if any of the trucks or cars hit us. Never scared in our life like that day. So still my car is on my driveway parked. There is a recall of the 6 cylinder of 2015 manufactured. But not for the 4 cylinder same safety issues other people have. I contacted the American Honda but they are denying any safety issues 2015 Honda accord 4 cylinder have engin failure. Please issue a safety recall so it will be safer before someone's family is put in danger instead of not knowing when their cars engin fails.
Transmission is not shifting. Also, when backing up car may jump and then stall.
When accelerating it does like it’s running out of gas and doesn’t want to go… I can feel the car sputting! I was going through a light that had turned green and an 18wheeler was coming up behind me thought the car wasn’t going to accelerate
My car does have a problem when starting. I have seen online that those models had a recall in 2019 for the same issue. Recal no. N3x. Car is taking longer to start sometimes. I have checked the battery, starter and related items. I came to know when I was watching it in youtube. It is having for so many people on this model. Please help me fix my car.
I will occasionally lose control of steering on turns, feels as if the steering wheel becomes unresponsive
As the car is running in the highway lost power and can not accelerate
Took my sister to a car dealership to look at a car and had my car running for a couple of hours due to me having kids and it was hot out. And I accidentally turned my car off and car wouldn’t start back up it kept saying key fob was missing and the key was hanging up on my rear view mirror. Had to literally wait 10 minutes before car would start back up. Honda really needs to get that fixed A.S.A.P that was definitely a scary experience for me especially having my two young kids with me. I can’t afford to be stranded somewhere.
Vehicle does not start 100% of the time. The safety issue is that being stranded, when it doesn't start , with small children in a rural area is dangerous. The dealer as well as Honda has no solution for the problem. Repairs suggested have all been made and the problem still exists. I know nothing will be done because of this letter, but whomever is reading this I would suggest that you not purchase a Honda product if you care for your family.

My 2015 Honda accord has been giving me problems For more than three years already so every time I turn it on there is a beep three times as soon as I turn on the ignition key then now in Often the car does not turn on, so I have to wait like 30 minutes so the car will start again, also about three times all the lights on the windchill had turn off including the radio in the phone chargers everything was pure black and it was in the middle of the night so I couldn’t see nothing on my way home That’s when I had to stop on the right shoulder on the freeway 14 because I couldn’t see to drive with no lights so I turn off the car and wait for a couple of minutes then the car turn on and the lights went back on and actually today I had to call the towing truck to pick me up to take it to the mechanic because it was not turning on not even after 30 minutes but after two hours the car turn on this happened when I was on the gas station putting gasAnd when I try to turn it on after putting gas that’s when the car didn’t wanna start I was in Arcadia city California and we were almost 90° and it was really hot with no shade and I was all by myself no where to go I am very tired of this and I am scared if this happened when I am in the intersection when there’s a lot of traffic, it seems that this problem is been happening very often now it’s been getting worse and worse,
I was driving in the outer lane on a city street when my car suddenly turned and hit the curb, sending the car down a hill. The brakes didn’t work either and I hit two trees headon. All airbags deployed. An electrical fire started under the hood. Two men came and shut off the power. The car was towed and declared a total loss. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance. The only person that I know of that inspected the car was the claims adjuster. There was no warning that anything was wrong. If anyone had been in the path of the car, I would have been unable to stop or turn.
My daughter was driving my car on Route 80 on Thursday, May 13th around 9:10 am when she heard a noise and thought it might be her tire. She pulled off the exit Ramp for Parsippany and pulled over. When she stepped out of the car she felt heat. She turned around and saw flames under the car. She reached in for her bag and purse and when she moved away the entire car was in flames by the time the State Police arrived. She did sustain a burn to her ankle which is still healing and will take about 6-8 weeks. She got burnt on her arm, neck, ear lobe, her hair line was singed as well as her eyelashes. I am waiting for the report from the Parsippany Fire Department. The Netcong State Police were on the scene and I have that Report Number, I have not been able to retrieve this report. The car was examined by the insurance company and listed as a total loss. Unfortunately, we do not know the cause of the fire and Honda was not the most responsive during this entire thing. There was absolutely no warning of what was going on and if she did not hear something and think it was a tire she would not be here today. I will attach the photos we have of the car.
The following lights are all on: FCW, LDW, Air Bag, Check Engine, Power Steering, ABS, and Tire Pressure monitoring system These lights are on and off for at least 5 times in the last 50 days.
I was driving the car on the highway and all of sudden lost steering control and caused me to have an accident.

When driving our 2015 Honda Accord, without warning or message, the steering of the car just stopped and our safety was put at risk. The wheel was unresponsive, rendering the car not steerable. It was like the old no power steering days when your tried to turn the steering wheel while in a parked position - not responsive. We couldn't drive the car and had it towed. This happened while driving! The dealer wrote it up as "The power setting light is on" which was not indicative of the loss of steering while the car was being driven. Since the car was towed to the dealership, we did not see the service write-up until a week later. They said the "these things can just happen when electronics are involved" The replaced the Electric Power Steering Rack and Pinion which was over $2,000.00
I HAVE 60,000 MILE STARTER IS BAD.
WHILE REVERSING OUT OF A PARKING SPACE ON 5/10/2021 THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN WHILE THE WHEEL WAS BEING TURNED. INSTEAD OF TURNING, THE CAR WAS DRIVEN STRAIGHT OUT UNTIL THERE WAS ENOUGH ROOM TO GO FORWARD. ONCE IN DRIVE MODE, THERE WERE NO ADDITIONAL STEERING ISSUES.
CONSTANTLY FEELS LIKE ITS PULLING BUT TO A SPECIFIC SIDE LIKE POOR ALIGNMENT BUT JUST JERKY AND SOMETIMES ITS A REALLY HARD PULL FOR NO REASON. I REALLY HAVE TO MAKE SURE I DRIVE WITH THE UPMOST CAUTION. ESPECIALLY WHEN ITS WET.

SOMETHING IS VERY WRONG WITH THE STEERING ON THIS CAR.

THE CONTACT WAS PROVIDED A DIAGNOSTIC FEE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
IGNITION KEY TURNED AND ONLY HEARD A CLICK. HAD TO TURN OFF AND ON MANY TIMES FOR IT TO EVENTUALLY START ENGINE, IF LUCKY. DID NOT EVEN HEAR THE ENGINE CRANK. BEST GUESS IS STARTER FAILURE.
ALMOST ON A DAILY BASIS THE CAR WILL NOT START. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES IT WILL START AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. WHEN I WOULD TRY TO START IT, IT JUST CLICKS, DOESN'T TURN OVER. ALL MY LIGHTS AND RADIO LIGHTS TURN ON EXCEPT THE CAR. AFTER 2-3 TRIES IT COMES ON. THEN THERE ARE SOME MORNINGS WHERE IT STARTS NO PROBLEM. JUST HIT AND MISS. I AM SCARED OF GETTING STRANDED SOMEWHERE OUT OF THE BLUE! THIS IS A RECALL PROBLEM DUE TO A BAD DESIGN CHANGE OF THE SOLENOID IN THE STARTER. I ALSO SMELLED SMOKE A FEW TIMES.
MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD EX-L V6 WILL RANDOMLY DECIDE NOT TO START. THERE IS NO WARNING AND BATTERY HAS BEEN CHANGED MULTIPLE TIMES. IT PASSES ALL TESTS FOR VOLTAGE, BUT JUST DOESN'T START AT LEAST 3 TIMES A DAY. VERY DANGEROUS, AND LEAVES YOU UNSURE OF HOW YOU WILL MAKE IT HOME. CAUSES EXTREME ANXIETY.
REAR CAMERA STOP WORKING FOR NO REASON AND FORWARDS COLLISION DOESN'T WORK WELL WHEN IT'S HOT.
THE VEHICLE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY.
CENTRLOCK SYSTEM IS ACTING WEIRD ON ALL DOORS RANDOMLY.
MY 2015 ACCORD V6 HAS A STARTING PROBLEM WHERE THE STARTER WILL GRIND SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE THE CAR WILL START. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY 3 TO 5 WEEKS. THE CAR WILL EVENTUALLY START AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. ALTHOUGH THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR EVERY TIME, I AM CONCERNED I WILL BE STRANDED.
ENGINE WILL NOT START. 2015 HONDA ACCORD HAS ABOUT 84K MILES. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED TWICE NOW BECAUSE MY CAR WON'T START AND OFTEN REQUIRES BETWEEN 2-4 ATTEMPTS TO START THE ENGINE. THE CLUSTER LIGHTS TURN ON AND EVERYTHING POWERED BY THE BATTERY IS WORKING, WITHOUT THE ENGINE STARTING. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY 3 TIMES (MARCH 2018, JANUARY 2020, MARCH 2021). PREVIOUS BATTERY WAS TESTED AND HAD PLENTY OF VOLTAGE LEFT AND WAS CHARGING WELL, SO THE ALTERNATOR IS WORKING WELL. KEY FOB BATTERY REPLACED 2 TIMES, MOST RECENTLY DECEMBER 2020 AND IS WORKING FINE. I BELIEVE THE STARTER IS DEFECTIVE AND I HAVE READ COUNTLESS REPORTS ONLINE STATING THE SAME ISSUE, AND THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AND ADDRESSED, ESPECIALLY BECAUSE THE PART ITSELF IS BETWEEN $150-180 ONLINE AND THE DEALERSHIP COST TO REPLACE THIS IS $1K AND ABOVE...

I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH 51K MILES. I HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY AT 40K MILES. I RECENTLY HAD THE SAME INTERMITTEN STARTING PROBLEM THAT MANY OF YOU DESCRIBED. SOMETIMES I HAVE TO TURN THE IGNITION KEY 20 TIMES FOR THE CAR TO START. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE HONDA DEALER. THEY PROBABLY SAW 100 OF SIMILAR CASES. HOWEVER, THEY ACTED AS IF MY STARTING PROBLEM IS A RARE CASE, AND CHARGED ME $900 TO REPLACE THE STARTER. I AM DISAPPOINTED WITH BOTH HONDA AND THE DEALER.
SOME TIME CAR WON'T START WHILE PRESSING START BUTTON, I REPLACED THE BATTERY , STILL ISSUE IS THERE. I NOTICED THAT, WHEN I HAVE THIS ISSUE BREAK BECOME STIFF. I CONTACTED HONDA SERVICE THEY TOLD THIS IS VERY COMMON ISSUE ACROSS HONDA 2015. THE Y QUOTE ME 190$ FOR STARTER INSPECTION AND ANOTHER 190$ FOR BREAK INSPECTION, THESE ARE JUST FOR INSPECTIONS. SINCE THEY TOLD MY CASE WAS THE 3RD CASE IN THAT DAY AND HONDA 2015 ACCORD MODEL HAS FAULTY STARTER , I WONDER WHETHER CAN YOU DO A RESEARCH AND MAKE A RECALL ?
AT ABOUT 48,000 MILES I STARTED HAVING INTERMITTENT NO START SITUATIONS WHICH RENDERED THE CAR UNRELIABLE. IF YOU TURN THE KEY NOTHING HAPPENS. BUT USUALLY AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE CAR WOULD START AND THEN THE PROBLEM WOULD NOT REPEAT FOR SEVERAL SUBSEQUENT STARTS. THEN IT WOULD REAPPEAR. I FOUND A MECHANIC WHO LOCATED THE PROBLEM REQUIRING A STARTER REPLACEMENT. HONDA SHOULD RECALL THESE VEHICLES.

MY HONDA ACCORD 2015 HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR 48000 MILES. I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE STARTER. THE CAR DOESN'T START AT TIMES AND HAS BECOME UNRELIABLE TO DRIVE. THIS APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH MANY SIMILAR MODEL HONDA. REQUEST HONDA TO TAKE ACTION AND RESOLVE THIS ISSUE FOR ALL HONDA ACCORD OWNERS AND CONTINUE TO KEEP THEIR BRAND PROMISE OF RELIABILITY AND QUALITY. MY CAR CONTINUES TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND WILL TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP.
MY WHEEL IS LOCK AND I CAN'T UNLOCK IT. FOR 3-4 DAYS I'VE HAD TO WIGGLE THE WHEEL AND KEYS JUS TO TURN MY CAR ON. AND IT DOESN'T EVEN LET ME DO THAT ANY MORE
THE VEHICLE IS CONSUMING EXCESSIVE OIL HAS BEEN DOING SO FOR LAST 20,000 MILES OR THAT'S WHEN I NOTICED IT. IT'S LOSING A QUART EVERY 1500 MILES. IT ALSO SEEMS TO HAVE BAD SEALS ON THE DOORS AND WINDSHIELD AIR SEEMS TO BE GETTING INSIDE WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS MAKES UNBEARABLE NOISES WHICH IS A HUGE DISCOMFORT TO ALL PASSENGERS IN THE VEHICLE HONDA REFUSED TO MAKE ANY CORRECTION ON THESE PROBLEMS. AS BOTH ARE MANUFACTURE DEFECTS. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 73,000 MILES I'M HOPING THAT MY MESSAGE HERE CAN BE SEEN BY NHTSA AND I HOPE THEY CAN HELP WITH MY PROBLEMS BECAUSE HONDA HAS FAILED TO DO ANYTHING. BEST REGARDS [XXX] REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
CAR WOULD NOT START COMPLETELY ONE NIGHT LEAVING ME STRANDED. NOW INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES AT LESS THAN 33K MILES. VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH STARTER AND HONDA HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN BUT NO RECALL
MY 15 ACCORD EXL V4 IS ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO AND 68K. START HAVING ISSUE TO START THE CAR. PUSH THE BUTTON AND BREAK, CAR DOESN'T START. TOOK MY CAR FOR A CHECK, I WAS BEEN TOLD I NEED TO REPLACE THE STARTER. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND LOTS OF 9TH GEN OWNERS ARE HAVING SAME ISSUE. UNACCEPTABLE FOR SUCH AGE CAR WITH STARTER ISSUE
I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN SEPTEMBER OF 2018. SINCE THEN TO DATE, 12/08/2020, I'VE REPLACED THE TIRES TWICE. THE TWO REAR TIRE HAVE REPEATEDLY WORN DOWN SEVERELY IN A SHORT TIME FRAME, CUPPING, WAVEY PATTERN. I'VE HAD THREE ALIGNMENTS DONE IN THIS TIMEFRAME AS WELL. NO ONE KNOWS WHAT TO DO. THIS DOES NOT LOOK GOOD FOR SUCH A RESPECTED CAR BRAND. I'VE OWNED MULTIPLE HONDAS. I PROBABLY WON'T BE MAKING ANOTHER PURCHASE.
MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD SPORT STARTED GIVING ME TROUBLE BY NOT STARTING. IT WOULD DO IT EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE STARTING THE SUMMER OF 2019. BY THE WINTER, IT WASN'T STARTING UP UP TO 3 TIMES A WEEK. EVENTUALLY BY THE SUMMER OF 2020, THE CAR WOULDN'T START AT ALL.
AT 52K MILES, ENGINE WILL NOT CRANK WHEN KEY IS TURNED. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, ENGINE WILL FINALLY CRANK AND THEN WILL START AS IF NOTHING WERE WRONG. HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE IN EVERY 3-4 TIMES STARTING ENGINE IS ATTEMPTED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE TIRES AND NOTICED NOTHING WRONG. THE NEXT DAY THE CONTACT RE-CALIBRATED THE SYSTEM AND THE WARNING LIGHT WAS NO LONGER ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT THEN STATED THAT WHILE IN REVERSE THE BATTERY SENSOR LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STALLED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, A LITTLE WHILE LATER WHILE MOVING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND DROVE BACK TO THE RESIDENCE. THE CONTACT CONTACTED FIRST TEXAS HONDA (3400 STECK AVE, AUSTIN, TX 78757; (512) 220-1121) WHO STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 58,973.
WHEN THE PUSH TO START BUTTON WAS PRESSED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. IN ADDITION THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND AN ABNORMAL, THE CAR HAVE 60,644 MILES. THANK YOU
BAD ALTERNATOR KEEPS CAUSING CORROSION ON THE BATTERY CONNECTORS.
WHEN TURNING ON THE CAR ENGINE START BUT THEN SHUTS DOWN. LIGHTS & RADIO ARE ONE MULTIPLE LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD ON, CHECK ENGINE, CHECK TIRE. I ATTEMPT TO START CAR AGAIN AND HAPPENS 4 TIMES. WHEN CAR IS FINALLY UP AND RUNNING LIGHT ON DASHBOARD STAY ON.
MY CAR HAS BEEN BURNING OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. THERE ARE NO LEAKS AND I GET THE OIL CHANGED EVERY THREE MONTHS REGARDLESS OF MILAGE. TODAY I CHECKED MY OIL AND IT WAS EMPTY. THERE WAS NO INDICATION LIGHT AND THE MORE I SEARCH ONLINE FOR SOLUTIONS, IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD FIX THE DEFECT.
OUR 2015 HONDA ACCORD HAS DEVELOPED A STARTING PROBLEM THE VEHICLE HAS A PUSH BUTTON START AND MORE SO THAN NOT IT TAKES REPEATED PUSHES OF THE START BUTTON FOR THE CAR TO CRANK OVER. THIS CONDITION STARTED ROUGHLY ONE MONTH AGO AND IS VERY CONCERNING TO ME SINCE IT IS MY WIFE'S CAR AND I DON'T WANT HER TO BE STRANDED BECAUSE THE CAR DOESN'T START. WHEN YOU PRESS THE BRAKE AND THE START BUTTON ALL YOU HEAR IS A LOUD CLICK COMING FROM THE STARTER BUT IT DOESN'T CRANK OVER. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND NUMEROUS SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH 2013 - 2015 HONDA ACCORDS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND HONDA IS BEING VERY IRRESPONSIBLE FOR NOT STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE AND ADMITTING IT IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS I'VE READ SAY IT IS A STARTER ISSUE AND EVEN THE HONDA DEALERSHIPS ARE SAYING IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM!!!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START INTERMITTENTLY AND HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED SEVERAL TIMES DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FOLLOWING DAY, THE VEHICLE STARTED AND OPERATED AS INTENDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED AND PERSISTED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BECOME UNDRIVEABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THAT THE STARTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ON THE VIN AND THAT THE REPAIR WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,000.
AT ONLY 38,XXX MILES THIS VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. INTERNET RESEARCH AND MECHANIC DIAGNOSIS INDICATES THAT THE STARTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, BUT YET THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME A CONCRETE ANSWER AS TO IF REPLACING THE STARTER WILL FIX THE PROBLEM LONG TERM. WITH A QUOTED REPLACEMENT COST OF $1,000 I AM LEERY TO HAVE THE STARTER REPLACED IF IT DOES NOT ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE COLD BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUES. A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 38,XXX MILES AND BARELY OUT OF WARRANTY SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE ISSUE. I AM OKAY WITH FIXING A FAULTY PART, BUT I AM NOT OKAY WITH A REOCCURRING ISSUES NOT HAVING AN EXACT SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. ARE THE STARTERS IN THESE VEHICLES TRULY BAD OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE WITHIN THE CAR THAT IS CAUSING THE STARTER TO BLOW? A RECALL OR RESEARCH OUTSIDE OF HONDA (BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE IGNORING THE ISSUES) NEEDS TO BE ROLLED OUT TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF, AND FIX, THESE STARTING PROBLEMS. STARTERS SHOULD NOT FAIL PRIOR TO 50,000 MILES. IF THEY ARE CONSTANTLY FAILING AT LOW MILEAGE, THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL DONE WITH THE OPTION OF REPLACING THE ORIGINAL STARTERS WITH NON-FAULTY PARTS. IF THE STARTERS ARE SOLID PARTS AS-IS, RESEARCH NEEDS TO BE DONE TO DETERMINE WHY THE STARTERS ARE FAILING. AT $1,000 PER REPAIR, HONDA IS MAKING TOO MUCH MONEY FIXING KNOWN SAFETY ISSUES WITH THEIR VEHICLES.
MY STARTER CLICKS ONCE WHEN I TRY TO TURN THE CAR ON, BUT THE CAR WON'T TURN ON. IT'S AN INTERMITTENT THING, BUT HAS STARTED HAPPENING MORE AND MORE OFTEN. I'VE BEEN STRANDED NOW TWO TIMES BECAUSE OF IT.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 65MPH I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THEN GLASS BREAKING. WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED, THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS SHATTERED. LUCKILY THE SUNROOF COVER WAS CLOSED BECAUSE MY SON WAS SITTING IN THE BACKSEAT. THE WEATHER TODAY WAS ABOUT 50 DEGREES AND RAINY. THE CAR WAS PARKED INSIDE OUR GARAGE BEFOREHAND SINCE THE NIGHT BEFORE.
WHEN PUTTING IN REVERSE OR DRIVE, ENGINE STUTTERS AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CUTS OUT AND ENTERTAINMENT CONSOLE REBOOTS. SOMETIMES THE CAR STALLS ALL TOGETHER. REPLACED THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR, AND PROBLEM STARTS AGAIN AFTER A FEW WEEKS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS BECAME ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE HEAD BASKET WAS BLOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO SISK AUTO MALL (4599 FORT CAMPBELL BLVD, HOPKINSVILLE, KY 42240) AND IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE HEAD GASKET WAS BLOWN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V121000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER: THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 65,000.
CAR TAKES SEVERAL TRIES BEFORE IT WILL START
I WAS PULLING SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PARKING LOT WHEN SUDDENLY CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL AND BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION..CAR WAS GOING EXTREMELY FAST..I HIT A POST AND A BUILDING..AIRBAG DEPLOYED..CAR WAS TOTALED.. AIRBAG SAVED ME. CAR ONLY HAD LITTLE OVER 30,500 MILES..IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. MY FAMILY WHO DROVE THE CAR CAR SAID THAT AT TIMES WHEN RELEASING BRAKE THE CAR WOULD LURCH FAST FORWARD OR BACK WHEN IN REVERSE. WHEN THE CAR CAME TO A STOP AFTER HITTING BUILDING THE 1ST THING I DID WAS LOOK WHERE MY FOOT WAS..IT WAS ON THE BRAKE. I KNEW IT WOULD BE CONSIDERED "DRIVER ERROR" BECAUSE I AM 80 YRS. OLD. BUT IT WAS THE CAR. ACTUALLY THIS HAPPENED BEFORE A FEW MONTHS AGO BUT I WAS ABLE TO STOP CAR . SAME SITUATION..PULLING SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A MCDONALD'S PARKING LOT. CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, JUMPED CURB WENT DOWN A HILL AND ENDED UP ON NEW ROAD UNDER CONSTRUCTION..THAT LANE HAD NOT OPENED YET. I MANAGED TO STOP AT BOTTOM OF HILL. CONSUMER HAS INJURIES FROM THE AIRBAGS. I HAVE A CLEAN DRIVING RECORD..NO ACCIDENTS. I AM A RETIRED RN..VERY CLEAR MINDED. NO SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS. *LN*JB
WHILE DRIVING OUR 2015 HONDA ACCORD NORTH ON I-15 NEAR SALT LAKE CITY, UT, WE HEARD A VERY LOUD, EXPLOSION LIKE NOISE ON THE TOP OF OUR CAR. WE EXITED THE INTERSTATE AND FOUND THAT THE SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. IT HAD EXPLODED! THE AREAS OF THE CAR SURROUNDING THE SUNROOF WERE NOT AFFECTED.
MY SIRIUS/XM RADIO RECEPTION IS INTERMITTENT. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. INTERNET SEARCHES SUGGEST THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM WITH HONDA VEHICLES. HAS THIS PROBLEM BEEN REPORTED TO NHTSA AND IS NHTSA CONSIDERING A RECALL?
WHEN VEHICLE IS OPERATING IT WILL STALL AND TURN OFF COMPLETELY. ALL CAR WILL TURN OFF AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WOULD FLICKER. IT STALLED ON ME WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. MY CAR STOPPED AS I WAS GOING 65 MPH, CARS BEHIND BE SWERVED AS MY CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE FREEWAY. THE VEHICLE ALSO DOES NOT START WHEN TRYING TO TURN ON. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WILL JUST FLICKER. I'VE CHANGED THE BATTERY TWO TIMES. I'VE GOT MY CAR DIAGNOSE AT AUTO ZONE AND A FUEL PUMP CODE CAME UP. TOOK IT TO HONDA TO TELL THEM MY SITUATION PAID 130$ FOR THEM TO TELL ME NOTHING IS WRONG. WHEN THEY DID THE DIAGNOSE THEY SAID NOTHING CAME UP ON THEIR END. FEW DAYS LATER I DROVE IT AND MY CAR STALLED OUT AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO AUTO ZONE AND THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH MY CAR. I AM AFRAID IF I DRIVE IT, IT WILL STALL AND I WILL GET INTO A CRASH. NOBODY CAN DIAGNOSE THE CAR BECAUSE NO CODE POPS UP ANYMORE, BUT MY CAR STILL STALL OUT.
2015 HONDA ACCORD SPORT WON'T START INTERMITTENTLY. I WAS GETTING IN MY CAR TO GO TO WORK, WHEN I TURNED THE KEY AND IT CLICKS ON THE FIRST TRY, THEN WILL START ON THE SECOND TRY. TODAY, I HAD TO TRY THREE TIMES BEFORE IT WOULD START. I GOT THE BATTERY AND STARTER TESTED AND THEY WERE BOTH GOOD.
AFTER EXITING A DRIVE-THRU CAR WASH, DROVE THROUGH THE PARKING LOT AND STOPPED BEHIND A CAR EXITING VIA A DRIVEWAY ONTO MAIN STREET. WHILE I APPLIED BRAKE THE ENGINE BEGAN TO RACE UP TO 5000 RPM. I WAS UNABLE TO KEEP THE CAR FROM CREEPING FORWARD WITH MAJOR FORCE ON THE BRAKES. I MOVED THE SHIFT LEVER TO N AND PRESSED THE START/STOP BUTTON, SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINE TO AVOID COLLISION WITH THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AFTER THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME EXITED, I RE-STARTED THE CAR AND EVERYTHING APPEARED NORMAL. HAVE NOT HAD A RECURRENCE OF THE PROBLEM. HAVE NOT TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER YET BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE THAT I TRUST THEM. SIMILAR PREVIOUS COMPLAINTS: 11331361, 11235107, 11142830, 11121723, 11119028, 11062545, 10948426 & 10860066. SEEMS TO BE A SERIOUS RECURRING SAFETY ISSUE.
VEHICLE WILL NOT START WHILE IN PARK. ALL LIGHTS, DASH LIGHTS, ETC COME ON IN THE ACCESSORY POSITION, BUT WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY TO IGNITION, THE STARTER DOES NOT ENGAGE. IF YOU TAKE THE DRIVE SELECTOR TO NEUTRAL IT WILL START. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN SINCE IT FIRST STARTED. SO FAR I HAVE NOT BEEN STRANDED OR NEEDED TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED.
ATTEMPT TO START CAR FIRST THING IN THE AM. CAR IS IN THE GARAGE. DOES NOT START, AND THE FCW, LDW, TIRE PRESSURE, POWER STEERING, ENGINE CHECK, LIGHTS COME ON. READING THE CODES SHOWS P2101 SET. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. FIRST TIME, AAA CHECKED AND CHARGED BATTERY AND A ERASED P2101 CODE. SECOND TIME AAA CHECKED BATTERY SAID IT WAS BAD, REPLACED BATTERY, I RESET P2101 CODE. THIS LAST TIME, A FEW WEEKS AFTER NEW BATTERY INSTALLED, TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO START. ON THIRD TRY CAR STARTED, RAN OK, THE FCW, LDW, AND OTHER ABOVE MENTIONED CODE WERE ON. READ THE CODE AND IT WAS P2101. TRIED RESETTING CODES, WAS UNABLE TO RESET CODE. DROVE THE CAR FOR AWHILE, RAN FINE. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH, I SEE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH HONDA ACCORD SINCE 2013. LOOKS LIKE DEALERS ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINE CAUSE. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALER SINCE THIS TIME I AM UNABLE TO RESET CODES
CAR STALLS/DIES INTERMITTENTLY WHILE IN REVERSE AND IN MOTION. HAPPENS WHEN GOING SLOWLY TO BACK OUT OF PARKING SPACES OR DRIVEWAY.
I GOT MY CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT.IVE HAD IT FOR 5 YEARS NOW.EVERY DAY IN SUMMER MY CAMERA IN THE WINDSHIELD GETS OVERHEATED.NOW I HAVE A CODE3 CAMERA /COLLISION DETECTION FAILED NOTICE FLASHING AND MY FCW AND LDW LIGHTS ON .I FEEL IT HAS A DEFAULT IN THE WINDSHIELD CAMERA FROM BEING OVER HEATED ALL THESE YEARS
THE CAR SOMETIMES WOULD NOT START, I ONLY HEAR A CLICKING SOUND. I KNOW IT IS NOT THE BATTERY BECAUSE WHEN THE CAR STARTS, THE CRANKING NOISE IS VERY GOOD. THIS ISSUE HAPPENED AND CONTINUES TO OCCUR IN THE PAST. I BOUGHT AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS CAR, PROMISING A STRESS FREE MAINTENANCE. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP BUT I GET A PUSH BACK SAYING "IF THE ISSUE NOT PRESENT DURING, THEY CANNOT TROUBLESHOOT ANYTHING". THIS IS TOUGH FOR CONSUMER LIKE ME THAT WAS CONVINCED TO PURCHASE EXTENDED WARRANTY WHERE I FEEL IT'S USELESS AND WASTE OF MONEY TO WHAT CAUSED ME BUT STRESSED AND WORRY. I AM REACHING OUT TO THE GOVERNMENT AGENCY SUCH AS YOURSELF TO PERHAPS ASSIST/ADVICE ON WHAT A CONSUMER SHOULD DO WITH THIS ISSUE
I'VE RECENTLY NOTICED SMALL OIL SPOTS ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. MY CAR DOES NOT ACCELERATE SMOOTHLY AND HAS ALSO STARTED TO STALL WHEN I'M INITIALLY STARTING IT. THE STALLING SEEMS TO BE WORSE WHEN THE CAR HAS COOLED OFF BUT ONCE IT FINALLY STARTS, IT IS RUNNING ROUGH UNTIL I HIT A STABLE SPEED. IT ALSO SEEMS TO RUN ROUGHER WHEN MAKING TURNS (WHICH IS TYPICALLY WHEN I'M ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE). IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST 3-6 MONTHS, ALTHOUGH INCONSISTENT. I'VE ALSO HAD A NEW BATTERY EVERY YEAR SINCE I'VE OWNED THIS VEHICLE DESPITE RECALLS ON BATTERY PARTS/SENSORS.
I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE CAR NOT STARTING AND WITH REPLACING BATTERIES. IN FIVE YEARS, I HAVE HAD 4 BATTERIES. SOMETIMES THE CAR STARTS RIGHT AWAY, SOME TIMES IT TAKES SEVERAL TRY'S, TAKE A BREAK AND TRY AGAIN. FRUSTRATING IS REALLY AN UNDERSTATEMENT. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED AT WORK, IN PARKING LOTS AND IN MY GARAGE. I KEEP MY CAR SERVICED. I JUST TOOK IT IN JULY 3 FOR OIL CHANGE. THE TIME BEFORE, AFTER THE CHECKED MY TIRES IN THE DRIVE IN BAY, THEY ASKED ME IF I ALWAYS HAVE A DIFFICULT TIME STARTING MY CAR, I TOLD THEM YES, AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK. OF COURSE THEY FOUND NOTHING. MAYBE NOW THAT THE CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, MAYBE THEY WILL FIGURE OUT WHAT HAPPENING. THE FEAR OF GETTING STRANDED AT NIGHT AT MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT ACROSS THE BRIDGE OR IN THE DEAD OF WINTER IS UNSAFE AND UNSETTLING. I NOTED THAT THERE ARE SEVERAL SIMILAR ISSUES IN THIS FORUM, I WOULD THINK HONDA WOULD FIND A FIX FOR THE TRULY OBVIOUS PROBLEM. THIS WAS MY THIRD HONDA, MORE THAN LIKELY , MY LAST. JUST TODAY, I GOT INTO THE CAR AND IT STARTED RIGHT AWAY. I WENT TO THE GROCERY STORE, GOT IN THE CAR ABOUT THIRTY MINUTES LATER AND IT STARTED RIGHT AWAY. I LEFT THERE AND WENT TO GET GAS. I GOT BACK IN THE CAR, TRIED TO START THE ENGINE AND I GOT NOTHING. I LITERALLY SAT AT THE SERVICE STATION FOR 15 MINUTES, TRYING TO START MY CAR. JUST AS I WAS READY TO CALL FOR A TOW, IT STARTED. THIS IS RIDICULOUS.
THE CAR WENT ON FIRE; THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WAS COMPLETELY BURNT. I WAS AT A RED LIGHT, IT STARTED SMOKING UP UNDER THE HOOD, I PULLED OVER, AND AS I OPENED THE HOOD IT WAS FLAMING. NOW I HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTING TO REPAIR IT AS I AM STILL PAYING THE CAR NOTE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW IT EVEN HAPPENED. *TR
MY CAR WON'T START ON THE FIRST TIME I TURN THE KEY. I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY MAYBE 3-4 TIMES TO GET THE CAR STARTED. I'M NOT SURE WHAT IT COULD BE. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS THE PROBLEM. IT MAY BE A MANUFACTURER PROBLEM.
I WAS ABOUT TO PARK MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD LX IN A PARKING SPOT IN PARKING LOT IN FRONT OF A SHOPPING CENTRE. THE CAR WAS CRUISING AT 2-3 MILES PER HOUR AT THIS TIME. THERE WAS A SUDDEN AND RAPID ACCELERATION WHICH WAS HIGHLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO THE SLOW SPEED WHILE I WAS ENTERING THE PARKING SPOT. I APPLIED THE BRAKES BUT IT DIDN'T HELP STOP OR SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE. THE CAR MOVED FORWARD WITH THE SAME RAPID ACCELERATION IN THE EMPTY PARKING SPOT IN FRONT AND STARTED MOVING TOWARDS THE NEXT PARKING ROW IN FRONT. I SWUNG THE CAR TO THE RIGHT ON TO THE ROAD BETWEEN THE TWO PARKING ROWS IN ORDER TO AVOID COLLISION WITH THE CARS IN THE NEXT ROW. THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING WITH RAPID ACCELERATION. I TRIED APPLYING BRAKES HARD BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T SLOW DOWN OR STOP. I BRUSHED THE BUMPER OF ANOTHER CAR IN THE PROCESS. I FINALLY HIT ANOTHER CAR PARKED NEAR A CURB AT THE END OF THE PARKING LOT. THE IMPACT WAS SO HIGH THAT THE OTHER CAR SWUNG 90 DEGREES. MY CAR STOPPED AFTER GETTING STUCK ON THE CURB AND WEDGED AGAINST THE OTHER CAR. THE AIRBAGS EXPLODED DUE TO THE HUGE IMPACT. I SURVIVED THE ACCIDENT WITH BRUISES AND BUMPS ON MY HANDS, KNEES, AND FEET. FORTUNATELY, NO OTHER PERSON IN THE PARKING LOT WAS INJURED IN THE ACCIDENT. ACCIDENT DATE AND TIME: JUNE 25, 2020 5:15 PM EASTERN. LOCATION: PARKING LOT OF NORTH TOWN PLAZA, 2856 DEKALB PIKE, NORRISTOWN, PA POLICE REPORT # EAST NORRITON, PA TOWNSHIP, REPORT NUMBER # 2020-0638219401 THE CAR HAS BEEN TOWED TO THE FOLLOWING LOCATION BY POLICE WITH MY CONSENT: CENTERSQUAREMOTORS 911 DEKALB PIKE BLUE BELL, PA 19422 (610) 277 2929 INSURER: STATE FARM
STARTED CAR, DROVE ON HIGHWAY 20 MILES. PARKED CAR TO RUN AN ERRAND. TRIED TO START CAR 5 MINS LATER; LIGHTS LIT UP ON DASH BUT CAR WOULD NOT START. TRIED SEVERAL TIMES, FINALLY WAS SUCCESSFUL STARTING CAR AND CONTINUED DRIVE TO WORK. DROVE TO MADISON HONDA, RT 24, MADISON, NJ. ADVISED THEM OF ISSUE WHILE CAR WAS RUNNING. THEY EXAMINED CAR AND CAME BACK 45 MINS LATER SAYING ALL SYSTEMS (BATTERY, STARTER AND ALTERNATOR) WERE IN GOOD WORKING ORDER. NO ISSUES FOUND. THEY COULD NOT REPEAT MY PROBLEM SO DISREGARDED IT. DROVE LAST 10 MINS TO MY OFFICE. SEVERAL HOURS LATER, TRIED TO START CAR, WOULD NOT CRANK. TRIED SEVERAL MORE TIMES, STILL NOTHING. I FELT STRANDED AT THIS LOCATION WITH NO MEANS OF GETTING HOME. WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TRIED AGAIN AND IT STARTED WITH NO PROBLEM. EVERY MORNING SINCE THIS BEGAN IT'S THE SAME THING. THE CAR IS UNRELIABLE. YESTERDAY HAD TO TRY A HANDFUL OF TIMES BEFORE IT STARTED. TODAY I TRIED TO START THE CAR FOR 25 MINUTES BEFORE I WAS SUCCESSFUL. DROVE TO MY MEETING AND LATER BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING THE CAR AGAIN. PROBLEM IS QUICKLY AND PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE.THIS CAR HAS LESS THAN 80,000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE SINCE EARLY 2015. THE DEALERSHIP HAS TAKEN CARE OF REGULAR MAINTENANCE. THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE. I NEVER KNOW IF AND WHEN IT WILL START AGAIN! I'M WORRIED ABOUT WHEN IT WILL STOP STARTING AT ALL! AND WHERE I'LL BE WHEN IT COMPLETELY FAILS! THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE! WHAT ABOUT TSB 16-002? A DESIGN ISSUE THAT IS GOING UNNOTICED AND UNADDRESSED? WHY IS HONDA NOT RESPONDING TO THESE COMPLAINTS? BECAUSE OF HONDA'S LACK OF CONSIDERATION AND THE CAR'S UNRELIABILITY, I WON'T BE BUYING ANOTHER HONDA!!! PLEASE HELP! *TR

I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD SPORT. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE MY BATTERY TWICE NOW. UNTIL ABOUT 3 - 4 WEEKS AGO, MY CAR WAS WORKING FINE UNTIL MY IGNITION WOULDN'T START WHEN I TURNED THE KEY. BUT EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL IN THE VEHICLE WORKS FINE. I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY DOZENS OF TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE FINALLY STARTS. NOW IT GOT SO WORST THAT IT TAKES 10 TO 15 MINUTES TO START THE VEHICLE THEN IT SUDDENLY STARTS LIKE NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. DID A SEARCH ON VARIOUS HONDA FORUMS AND APPARENTLY IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE MODEL.

THIS CAR HAS A PUSH BUTTON START. YOU ENGAGE THE BRAKE AND PRESS THE BUTTON TO START. IT WILL NOT START. IT ONLY MAKES A GRINDING SOUND. I CAN RELEASE THE BRAKE, PRESS THE START BUTTON TO DISENGAGE THE START EFFORT. THEN REAPPLY THE BRAKE, PRESS THE START. SOMETIMES IT WILL THEN CRANK AND SOMETIMES I HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS SCENARIO MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE IT WILL CRANK. THIS ISSUE DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME YOU ATTEMPT TO CRANK THE CAR BUT THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL AND WHEN IT WON'T. I'M VERY CONCERNED WHEN IS IT GOING TO FINALLY NOT CRANK AND WHERE MIGHT I BE, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES, ONLY TO GET THE RESPONSE, "THE STARTER IS GOING BAD", THIS VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 70,000 MILES AND THIS CHAIN OF EVENTS HAS BEEN GOING ON OVER A YEAR.

I WEIGH APPROXIMATELY 130 POUNDS. AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY CAR. THE MOTOR FOR THE DRIVERS SEAT STARTED MAKING WEIRD RATTLING NOISES. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS WHEN I HAD ABOUT 1 YEAR WITH MY CAR. AND SINCE IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY I TOOK IT IN TO THE HONDA DEALER IN REDLANDS, CA. THEY 'FIXED' IT. AND NOW 4 YEARS LATER AFTER THAT IT'S MESSED UP AGAIN. EITHER THE MOTORS THAT CONTROL THE SEATS ARE MESSED UP. OR I'M DEFINITELY TO HEAVY FOR MY CAR SEAT TO HANDLE MY WHOLE 130 POUNDS. MY HUSBAND OCCASIONALLY DRIVES MY CAR. AND HE KNOWS HOW IRRITATED I GET WHEN MY SEATS BEEN MOVED SO HE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING BUT MOVE THE SEAT BACK. *TR
CAR DOES NOT START RANDOMLY. LIGHTS AND DASHBOARD WILL COME ON BUT ENGINE WILL NOT START AND MAKES A CLICKING NOISE. AFTER TURNING THE KEYS A FEW TIMES THE CAR WILL START LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED, AND THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW MONTHS RECENTLY. CAR IS PARKED. WENT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS A STARTER ISSUE AND AFTER RESEARCHING THE PROBLEM MANY 2015 ACCORD DEALERS ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. *TR
I OWN A 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH 38K MILES. I STARTED HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT STARTING. SOME DAYS IT WOULD CRANK RIGHT UP OTHER TIMES I HAVE TO TRY MULTIPLE TIMES OR NOT START UNLESS IT'S JUMP STARTED. I TOOK IT TO HAVE THE BATTERY CHECKED THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY BATTERY SO WE INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY AND IT STARTED ACTING UP AGAIN NOT WANTING TO START . I FINALLY TOOK IT IN TO BE CHECKED TODAY AND THEY TELL ME IT'S THE STARTER!!! THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR A CAR WITH 38,000 MILES. NOW IT LOOKS LIKE I HAVE TO FORK OUT $800 FOR A STARTER. I AM A VERY DISSATISFIED HONDA CUSTOMER..DON'T PLAN ON EVER PURCHASING ANOTHER AFTER THIS. HONDA NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS!!!!! *TR
MY CAR IS HAVING ISSUES TURNING ON. IT IS BRAND NEW 2015 FROM A HONDA CERTIFIED LOT. UPON STARTUP I HEAR A GRINDING OR WHINING NOISE FROM THE STARTER AREA. (NOT ALWAYS) MAYBE A FAULTY STARTER MOTOR AND INCORRECT POSITIONING OF THE TORQUE CONVERTER RING GEAR, THE GEAR WITH WHICH THE STARTER MESHES TO SPIN THE ENGINE AT STARTUP. IT IS A PROBLEM I HAVE EVERY DAY WHEN I TRY TO TURN ON MY CAR. SOMETIME IT GOES ON THE FIRST PRESS START, OTHER TIMES, I'VE WAITED AN HOUR IN MY CAR TRYING TO TURN IT ON TO GET TO MY NEXT DESTINATION. *TR
CAR STARTED AND RAN FOR HALF DAY NEAR END OF DAY CAR WON'T START. BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WAS REPLACED 2 YEARS LATER CAR HAS SAME ISSUE OF CAR NOT STARTING AFTER CAR WAS RUNNING FINE FOR MOST OF THE DAY . *TR

PROBLEMS STARTING. THOUGHT IT WAS TIME FOR A NEW BATTERY SO I BOUGHT A TOP OF THE LINE ONE SO THAT I DO NOT HAVE TO REPLACE EVERY 3 YEARS. STILL DOES THE SAME THING. TAKES SOMETIMES 4 AND EVEN 7 TIMES TO START. WHEN LEAVING IN THE MORNING FOR ERRANDS WILL START BUT DON'T WANT TO TURN OFF AFRAID THAT I WILL BE STUCK. I BOUGHT THE HONDA THINKING I WAS GETTING A RELIABLE CAR. SO IS MY STARTER OR IGNITION AN ISSUE. OR ELECTRICAL. I DON'T LIKE HAVING CAR PROBLEMS, I AM NOT VERY HAPPY. PLEASE HELP
CAR WILL NOT START. THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED AND IS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD. LOTS OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T56656_DS799830 THIS IS MY SECOND TIME WITH THIS PROBLEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE THE KEY WAS IN THE IGNITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SPRING BRANCH HONDA (10250 KATY FREEWAY, HOUSTON, TX 77043, (713) 464-7482) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED 3 TIMES HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE A SECOND TIME. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V060000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER) AS POSSIBLE SOLUTION FOR THE FAILURES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 78,324.
THE CAR BEEN HAVING HARD TIME STARTING. MOST OF THE TIME IT STARTS RIGHT AWAY AND SOMETIME IT WILL JUST CLICK AND WONT START. BUT WILL START AFTER A FEW TRIES. HAD THE BATTERY ,ALTERNATOR,AND STARTER CHECK. AND EVERYTHING CAME OUT GOOD. SOMETIMES AFTER A QUICK STOP TO THE STORE THE CAR WONT START. CHECK FOR RECALL ON MY CAR AND IT SHOWS 0 UNREPAIRED CALLS. SEEM LIKE ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES.
LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, NO ACCELERATION WHILE ENGAGING THE GAS FOOT PEDAL, SHACKING OF CAR AND UNABLE TO ACCELERATE. FIRST TIME, VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET SECOND TIME, WHILE TURNING TO MERGE ON TO FREEWAY RAMP AND CONTINUES TO DO IT SOON AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND BECOMING MOBILE ON CITY STREETS.
THE CAR HAS PROBLEMS STARTING UP. THE STARTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MANY PEOPLE ONLINE HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM.
MY CAR SOMETIMES STARTS, SOMETIMES DOESN'T START. SOMETIMES IT STARTS RIGHT AWAY ON THE FIRST TRY. SOMETIMES IT TAKES MULTIPLE TRIES AFTER A FEW SECONDS TO A FEW MINUTES. THE TIMES WHEN IT DOESN'T START, I TURN THE KEY IN THE IGNITION AND HEAR ONE SINGLE TINY CLICK. THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS COME ON, RADIO PLAYS, AIR COND. WORKS, WIPERS WORK HEADLIGHTS WORK. EVENTUALLY, AFTER A FEW RETRIES, THE ENGINE WILL START. SOMETIMES IT STARTS AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES. WHEN I DO GET THE CAR STARTED, IT RUNS PERFECTLY SMOOTH. NO STALLING OR SPUTTERING, NO WEIRD NOISES, NO PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION. IT'S ONLY ON STARTING WHEN THERE IS A PROBLEM THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 6/7 MONTHS.
2015 ACCORD LX WILL NOT START SOMETIMES.JUST CLICKS WHEN KEY IS TURNED.ALL LIGHTS AND EVERYTHING ELSE ARE WORKING PROPERLY. NEW BATTERY HAS BEEN INSTALLED AND STILL HAVING SAME ISSUE. IT APPEARS THIS IS HAPPENING TO NUMEROUS OTHER CONSUMERS BUT NO PROGRESS IS BEING MADE BY HONDA TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. HAVE BEEN LEFT STRANDED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE ON OCCASION.
BACKUP CAMERA ON THE VEHICLE STOPPED WORKING WHEN PUT IN REVERSE. HAD TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED ON 3/3/2020 EQUAL TO WHAT A CAR PAYMENT WOULD OF BEEN A MONTH AFTER FINISHING PAYING OFF VEH.
RECALL FOUND FOR REPLACE BATTERY MGMT SENSOR
CAR WON'T START RANDOMLY EVEN WITH BATTERY JUMP. IT HAPPENED A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED IN GARAGE. I THOUGHT PERHAPS WE LEFT A LIGHT ON OR SOMETHING BUT CAR STARTED WITH BATTERY JUMP. A FEW DAYS AGO, NOW MY WIFE COULD START A CAR WHILE SHE WAS WAITING FOR KIDS FROM SCHOOL PARKING LOT. THANKFULLY SHE WAS ABLE TO GET SOME HELP TO JUMP START THE CAR. LATER WHEN SHE RETURNED HOME, I ALSO FOUND IT NOT STARTING AGAIN IN MY HOME DRIVE WAY AND I CAN'T JUMP START THE CAR ANYMORE. IT HAS LESS THAN 26000 MILES... SHE IS NOW AFRAID TO TAKE THE CAR AS IT MAY START AT ALL.
I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD CP WITH ABOUT 60K MILES. I IT CAN NOT START THIS MORNING, ALL THE DASH LIGHTS FLASH AND IT ISN'T CRANKING. IT HAPPENED LAST YEAR BUT IT COULD START AFTER A HALF HOUR, AND IT RUN WELL UNTIL THIS MORNING. IT JUST WONT START NO MATTER HOW HARD I TRIED.
BROUGHT THE CAR USED FROM DEALER AND AFTER 6 MONTHS I TRIED TO START THE CAR AND ONLY HEAD A CLICK NOISE. THE CAR WAS PARKED, CLUTCH PRESSED TO THE FLOOR AND GEAR SHIFT IN NEUTRAL. THIS ONLY HAPPENS SPONTANEOUSLY, I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY KEPT THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS AND SAID THE THEY COULDN'T REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM. LONG STORY SHORT THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS, FINALLY THE OWNER OF THE LOT WAS THERE WHEN I CAME TO PICK UP THE CAR AND IT WOULDN'T START, HE TRIED TO START THE CAR MORE THAN 10 TIMES, AND FINALLY DIAGNOSE THE STARTED BEING THE PROBLEM. HAD THE STARTER REPLACED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. MAYBE 2 WEEKS AFTER THE REPLACEMENT, THE ISSUE BEGAN TO HAPPEN AGAIN. FOR ONLY HAVING THIS CAR FOR A YEAR AND TO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE DRIVING IT, I FEEL DISCOURAGED. IT IS A BIG INCONVENIENCE WONDERING IF YOUR CAR IS GOING TO START OR NOT WHEN YOU TURN IT OFF.
TIRES HAVE A BUMP AT SLOW SPEEDS NOT NOTICEABLE AT HIGHER SPPEDS IT IS NOT ABOUT BALANCING THERE IS NO VIBRATION. SOUNDS LIKE A BROKEN BELT
MY VEHICLE'S STARTER PERIODICALLY GRINDS AND WILL NOT ENGAGE THE RING GEAR TO START THE ENGINE. HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT IMPROPER INSTALLATION AT THE FACTORY CAUSED THE CLEARANCE BETWEEN THE STARTER MOTOR GEAR AND TORQUE CONVERTER RING GEAR TO BE IMPROPER. SEE TSB 16-002. THE STARTER WILL ENGAGE AFTER REPEATED (SOMETIMES 5+) ATTEMPTS. IF THE VEHICLE WERE TO EXPERIENCE A STALL WHILE DRIVING, THE INABILITY TO RESTART THE ENGINE COULD LEAD TO A CRASH. IN ADDITION, A STARTER THAT RANDOMLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY FAILS TO ENGAGE COULD CAUSE A DRIVER TO BE STRANDED IN POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS WEATHER CONDITIONS. HONDA HAS DECLINED TO EXTEND WARRANTY COVERAGE TO THIS PART THAT HAS FAILED DUE TO AN ADMITTED ERROR ON THEIR PART.
STARTER BEGAN GRINDING AND SKIPPING AT 55,000 MILES. I DRIVE 70 MILES ROUND TRIP EACH DAY, SO THE MILEAGE DOESN'T REPRESENT THE ACTUAL LIMITED AMOUNT OF STARTS I HAVE HAD WITH THIS CAR. TSB FROM HONDA DECLARES 'IMPROPER CLEARANCE IN STARTER WITH PINION GEAR MAY CAUSE STARTING MALFUNCTION.' MUST ROTATE TORQUE CONVERTER BOLTS ONE ROUND CLOCKWISE AND REPLACE STARTER TO FIX. BUT, THIS WON'T FIX THE ISSUE. THE IMPROPER CLEARANCE IS A DESIGN FLAW. NEW STARTER WILL DO THE SAME THING. IF THE STARTER MALFUNCTIONS AGAIN, THEN A NEW TORQUE CONVERTER IS REQUIRED. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND UNFOUNDED IN CAR MAINTENANCE. A BAD STARTER DESIGN COSTS OWNERS +3,400$ TO REMEDY THE SECOND TIME. WHICH STILL WON'T FIX IT. THE THIRD STARTER STILL WON'T HAVE THE PROPER CLEARANCE.
CAR DOES NOT START EVEN THOUGHT BATTERY IS FINE. HONDA IS UNWILLING TO HELP WITHOUT A DIAGNOSTIC FEE ON AN ISSUE MANY 2013-2015 ACCORD MODELS HAVE. CAR WAS PARKED AFTER RUNNING COMPLETELY FINE, WHEN I WAS TRYING TO START IT AGAIN IT REFUSED TO TURN ON COMPLETELY. TIRE LIGHT FLASHES AND AVS/ENGINE/BATTERY LIGHT ARE ON.
INCONSISTENT START UP. ONE CLICK WITHOUT ACTUALLY STARTING. IT MAY TAKE 1-20 ATTEMPTS TO TURNOVER. BATTERY IS ABOUT A YEAR OLD. MILEAGE IS 117,000 MILES. BASIC MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN PERFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE.
MY POWER STEERING UNEXPECTEDLY FAILED. I WAS ON THE ROAD TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AND WENT TO MAKE A TURN BUT COULD NOT WITHOUT SIGNIFICANT EFFORT. MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY IN THE REPAIR SHOP, WHERE THEY ARE TRYING TO DIAGNOSE A CAUSE. THE POWER STEERING IS ELECTRONIC, AS MY VEHICLE IS A HYBRID.
MY CAR HAS 58,000 MILES. AND NOW THE CAR START UP FIRST TIME AND AFTER STARTING AND STOPPING IT THE VEHICLE WILL INTERMITTENTLY NOT START. WHEN I PUSH THE PUSH START BUTTON THE LIGHTS COME ON AND THE RADIO AND THE HEAT COMES ON BUT IT JUST CLICKS. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY RECOMMEND THE I REPLACE THE STARTER AND ROTATING THE TORQUE CONVERTER ONE BOLD HOLE COUNTERCLOCKWISE.
VEHICLE IS NOT STARTING WHEN I PUSH THE IGNITION. I'VE BEEN TO MANY FORUMS WHERE SIMILAR PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND MANY SOLUTIONS TRIED BUT NO FIX FOUND. PEOPLE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND STILL NO FIX. I'VE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND HAD THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TESTED WITH NO ISSUE FOUND. HONDA ISSUED TSB 16-002 FOR V6 ACCORD MODELS BUT DOESN'T ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE ON MY V4 MODEL. VEHICLE IS PARKED - ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING AND IS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE TO THE POINT THAT I AM NOT DRVING IT! SPOKE WITH HONDA CUSTOMER COMPLAINT REP AND INFORMED THAT THE TSB STILL DOES NOT APPLY TO MY CAR. IN THE MID-WEST DURING THE WINTER MONTHS THE RISK OF BEING STRANDED IN SUB-ZERO TEMPS IS VERY REAL WITH THIS ISSUE AND HAS ALREADY HAPPENED TO ME TWICE.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION KEEPS SLIPPING OUT OF 2ND GEAR AND CAN'T ENGAGE IN 2ND GEAR. WAS TOLD FROM TRANSMISSIONS SHOPS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING WITH OTHER 2015 HONDA ACCORDS WITH LOW MILEAGE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PUSH START BUTTON FEATURE WOULD INTERMITTENTLY FAIL TO FUNCTION; TAKING MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO ACTIVATE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO BE SERVICED BY A DEALER. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. UPON INVESTIGATION, HE DISCOVERED A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN: A16-002 WHICH HE RELATED TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
THERE IS A WARRANTY EXT. ON THE PAINT AND HONDA CORP. WILL NOT COVER RENTAL WHICH WILL TAKE 7 DAYS TO REPAIR. IT IS NO FAULT OF MY OWN THAT THE PAINT IS PEELING, AND I CAN GO WITH OUT A CAR.
2015 HONDA ACCORD V6 BOUGHT AS NEW NOW WITH 72K MILES HAS STARTER PROBLEM. CAR WILL HAVE A WINDING/GRINDING NOISE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START (FROM OFF AND STATIONARY POSITION) BUT WILL NOT START. WHEN INSPECTING PROBLEM, IT WAS FOUND THAT THE FLYWHEEL HAS BEEN DAMAGED LIKELY DUE TO MISALIGNMENT OF TORQUE CONVERTER RING GEAR OR BAD STARTER MOTOR. CALLED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THE COMPONENTS ARE NOT COVERED BY WARRANTIES. SERVICE CAMPAIGN ONLINE WAS FOUND WITH REFERENCE TSB NO. 16-002 ISSUED FEBRUARY 5, 2016. BUYER WAS NOT AWARE OF SUCH PROBLEMS SINCE DATE OF PURCHASE AS HONDA NEVER ISSUED A RECALL OR MAILED OUT NOTIFICATION TO THE BUYER. MANY HAVE REPORTED THE ISSUE ONLINE. BUYER WAS NEVER MADE AWARE OF SERVICE BULLETIN VIA PAPER OR ELECTONIC MAIL, NO RECALL WAS MADE, CAR IS NOW APPARENTLY NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, AND REQUIRING MULTIPLE PARTS REPAIRS.
STARTER GRINDS WHEN PRESS START BUTTON. HONDA WANTS $1000 TO FIX BUT IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE A RECALL....
THE CAR WAS MAKING CLICKING SOUND, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WASN'T ON. DROVE ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE SOUND START TO SOUND WORSE. SO DROVE BACK HOME, SPEED WAS DROPPING. IT SHUT OFF WHILE IDLING AT STOP SIGN. TOOK A WHILE TO TURN BACK ON. FINALLY TURNED BACK ON AND WAS ABLE TO GET HOME. HAVEN'T USED THE CAR SINCE. HAVE SOMEONE CHECK THE CAR BUT WHEN HE TRIED TO START THE CAR IT SOUND HORRIBLE SO HE TURN IT OFF AND SAID NOT TO TOUCH IT. HE WAS CHECKING TO SEE IF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. AND IT WASN'T. *TR
INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH STARTING. I HEAR AND SEE A FLICKER ON THE DASHBOARD AND LIGHTS, HOWEVER IT DOESN'T START.I PLUG A JUMPER PACK IN AND IT IMMEDIATELY STARTS, AS IF NOTHING HAPPENED. THIS WILL HAVE 5-6 TIMES A WEEK AFTER RUNNING FINE THROUGHOUT THE DAY. JUST HAPPENS SURPRISINGLY. THE STARTER HAS BEEN REPLACED IN WHICH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SAYS WAS THE ISSUE. THERE IS CLEARLY SOME OTHER ISSUE HAPPENING, MAYBE THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM BUT THEY REFUSED TO CHECK TO EVEN HELP DIAGNOSE AGAIN.
WHEN CAR PARKS AND KEY INSIDE (IN STATIONARY) AND WHEN YOU LEAVE THE CAR MAY BE AROUND 1 MINUTE, THE DOOR WILL LOCK ITSELF. THIS WOULD LIKELY CREATES SAFETY HAZARDS TO OTHER VEHICLES IF THE VEHICLE HAPPEN TO PARK IN THE MIDDLE OF ROADWAY.
VEHICLE NEEDS NEW BATTERY EVERY 2 YEARS. HAS LEFT ME STRANDED TWICE. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 90,000 MILES AND IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. HONDA HAS REPLACED UNDER RECALL SOME TYPE OF BATTERY SENSOR BUT THIS HAS NOT HELPED. THERE ARE TWO TSB'S THAT I KNOW OF: TSB 16-002 AND TSB 17-057. CAR GURUS WEBSITE HAS A BLOG WITH A LARGE NUMBER OF ACCORD OWNERS ALL IN THE SAME BOAT. PEOPLE ARE REPLACING STARTERS, ALTERNATORS, IGNITION SWITCHES, BATTERIES, ETC. TO NO AVAIL. HONDA HAS TURNED ITS BACK ON ITS CUSTOMERS. I CAN NOT AFFORD THIS. PLEASE HELP.
THE WIPERS INTERMITTENTLY STOP WHILE DRIVING , IT JUST STARTED 2 DAYS AGO. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO
THE PAST MONTH MY VEHICLE WILL START INTERMITTENTLY. I WILL TURN THE KEY AND NOTHING HAPPENS. NO CLICK FROM THE STARTER OR NOTHING. LIGHTS COME ON. TURN KEY TO OFF AND TRY AGAIN AND IT STARTS. BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR TESTED GOOD. MY GUESS IT IS THE STARTER GOING BAD OR THE STARTER RELAY. CAR HAS 75000 MILES ON IT. OBVIOUSLY CAR IS PARKED. THIS OCCURRED 11/20/2019 TO PRESENT. IT IS RANDOM WHEN IT DOES HAPPEN AND IS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN.
DRIVING THE CAR ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY THE CAR BEGINS PULLING BACK, WHICH THEN IS FOLLOWED BY A BINKING 'D3" ON THE DASH.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STARTER WOULD NOT OPERATE INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH THE MANUFACTURER WHO INFORMED HIM THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO GILLMAN HONDA FORT BEND (26029 SOUTHWEST FWY, ROSENBERG, TX 77471, (832) 361-3804), BUT THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT LINKED THE FAILURE TO TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: A16-002. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 31,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING UP A HILL, THE VEHICLE STALLED FOR THREE TO FOUR SECONDS AND RESTARTED INDEPENDENTLY. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DRIVE. THE CONTACT PURCHASED A NEW STARTER; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 75,000.
VEHICLE IS NOT STARTING WHEN I TURN THE IGNITION. I'VE BEEN TO MANY FORUMS WHERE SIMILAR PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN REPORTED AND MANY SOLUTIONS TRIED BUT NO FIX FOUND. PEOPLE HAVE SPENT THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND STILL NO FIX. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY TWICE ALREADY ON MY VEHICLE AFTER LEAVING ME STRANDED. NOW, THE IGNITION WON'T EVEN START. I HAVE TO TRY AND TRY FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES UNTIL IT FINALLY TURNS ON. I AM AFRAID I WILL BE STRANDED AGAIN. FOR A RELATIVELY NEW VEHICLE, THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND SHOULD BE FIXED IMMEDIATELY!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MADE GRINDING AND WHINING NOISES WHEN THE PUSH BUTTON START WAS PRESSED. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT SOME OF THE GEARS WERE NOT MATCHING UP. HENNESSY HONDA OF WOODSTOCK (8931 GA-92, WOODSTOCK, GA 30189, (770) 924-9000) STATED THAT SINCE THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED, THEY WOULD NOT COVER THE EXPENSES. THE DEALER ALSO STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS; HOWEVER, AN UNKNOWN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN HAD BEEN ISSUED REGARDING THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.
WHENEVER ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE AFTER IT HAD RECENTLY BEEN TURNED OFF (EX: WHEN GETTING GAS OR RUNNING INTO STORE QUICKLY) THE DASH AND INTERIOR LIGHTS UP AND CHIMES BUT MAKES NO ATTEMPT AT START (NO FUEL PUMP POWER OR ATTEMPT TO CRANK OVER MOTOR) AND THIS OCCURS FREQUENTLY AMIDST MY VEHICLE AND OTHERS OF THE SAME YEAR/ MAKE WITHOUT EVER RECEIVING A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR WARNING. HE NOTED AS WELL THAT THE VEHICLE HAS HAD THE BATTERY, STARTER, AND ALTERNATOR TESTED WITHOUT ANY CONCLUSIVE RESULTS AS TO THE ISSUE. HONDA DEALERSHIP AS WELL FAILED TO GIVE ME OR OTHER OWNERS A CONCLUSIVE FIX FOR THE ISSUE AND REMAINS ONGOING.
SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE AND CAUSE SEVERE NECK, BACK, AND HIP PAIN. THE HEAD REST FORCES YOUR HEAD FORWARD AND PLACES STRAIN ON YOUR NECK AND BACK. ADJUSTING LUMBAR DOES NOT HELP BUT RATHER CAUSES PAIN IN THE LEGS AND BUTTOCKS. SEAT SURFACES ARE FLAT AND LACK CONTOUR THEREFORE THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS CONTINUALLY SHIFT. HONDA REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO HELP ALLEVIATE THE ISSUE. WE HAVE OWNED 5 HONDA AUTOMOBILES AND WILL NO LONGER PURCHASE HONDA VEHICLES AS THE QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS GONE DOWN HILL.
WE HAD TO REPLACE THE CARS ALTERNATOR AT 37K MILES, THE BATTERY AT 16 MONTHS, AND HAVE REPLACED HEADLIGHTS 6 TIMES SINCE OWNING THE CAR.
THE CARS RADIO RANDOMLY REBOOTS AND FREEZES WHILE IN USE AND DRIVING. CALLS WILL DROP, DISPLAY WILL BLANK, AND RESET ITSELF. THERE ARE TIMES WHEN WE HAVE TO PARK THE CAR, POWER IT OFF AND RESTART TO CLEAR THE ISSUE. HONDA TELLS US THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND IT IS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE.
ALL OF THE DOOR ACTUATORS FAILED AT 30000 MILES I SPEND 400 DOLLARS FIXING JUST ONE DRIVERS SIDE)
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V060000 (FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER). WHILE THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE STALLED. ADDITIONALLY, WHEN THE PUSH START BUTTON WAS ENGAGED, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL GRINDING NOISE DETECTED AND THE BUTTON HAD TO BE PUSHED MULTIPLE TIMES TO START THE VEHICLE. FURTHERMORE, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KENDALL HONDA (846 GOODPASTURE ISLAND RD, EUGENE, OR 97401 (855) 981-5504), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09827357. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.
IN THE LAST YEAR MY CAR HAS NOT TURNED ON 3 TIMES. WHEN I PUSH THE START BUTTON IT JUST CLICKS AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. ONLY AFTER MANY ATTEMPTS AND WAITING MORE THAN HALF HOUR IT FINALLY TURNS ON WITH ALL WARNING LIGHTS. IN JULY, WE CHANGED THE BATTERY. THINKING THIS MIGHT BE THE PROBLEM. IT WAS NOT. AGAIN TODAY THE CAR WOULD NOT START AND ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO IS CHARGING ME $150!TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK. I PURCHASED THE CAR IN 2015 BRAND NEW. IT CURRENTLY HAS 35K MILES. A CAR WITH FEW MILES AND ONLY 4 YRS OLD SHOULD NOT BE GIVING ANY PROBLEMS. EVEN LESS HAVING TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC OR MANUFACTURING RELATED PROBLEMS.
LEFT REAR CALIPER FROZEN. /STUCK LEFT REAR BRAKE PAD UNEVENLY WORN DUE TO BRAKE CALIPER BEING STUCK. CALIPER IS DEFECTIVE , AND NOT FUNCTIONING CORRECTLY
MY 2015HONDA ACCORD PURCHASED NEW OFF THE LOT AND WELL MAINTAINED HAS ISSUES WITH START UP SYSTEM. DEALER REPORTS IT IS A STARTER FAILURE. WHEN FOOT IS FIRMLY PLACED ON THE BRAKE AND START PUSH BUTTON IS PUSHED THE CAR WILL MAKE ONE CLICK SOUND AND NOT START, IT CAN TAKE UP TO 10 ATTEMPTS TO START CAR. THE DISPLAY DOES SHOW UP. I HAD THE BATTERY SENSOR RECALL FIXED AND THIS DID NOT MAKE A DIFFERENCE. DEALER WANTS OVER $750 TO REPAIR STARTER.I BELIEVE THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE HAPPENING CAUSING THE STARTER TO DIE. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THESE STARTERS AND GET DOWN TO THE ROOT CAUSE, BECAUSE THOUSAND OF OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME STARTING ISSUES WITH THESE CARS. IT IS VERY SAD THAT HONDAS REPUTATION IS BEING STAINED DUE TO THEIR NEGLIGENCE IN CORRECTING THIS ISSUE.
HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS. WHEN RAINING AT NIGHT I CAN'T EVEN SEE WHAT LANE I'M IN. IS ESPECIALLY BAD WHEN CARS ARE ON OTHER SIDE OF ROAD. WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR, I STOPPED TO SEE IF THE HEADLIGHTS WERE EVEN ON. THEY ARE USELESS WHEN ROAD IS WET AND RAINING. OFTEN I CAN'T EVEN SEE WHAT LANE I'M IN. THIS HAS BEEN THE PROBLEM SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN 2018. AND I CANT SEE ON THE LEFT WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN. THESE LIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS AND NEED TO BE RECALLED. I HAD NO PROBLEM WITH MY PREVIOUS 2015 ACCORD.
I HAVE THE WHITE ORCHARD PAINT AND IT IS PEELING FROM AROUND THE EDGES OF MY REAR ROOF AND SIDE PANELS. I WASH IT ABOUT ONCE EVERY TWO WEEKS WITH QUALITY REPUTABLE PRODUCTS AND DRY IT AFTER. EVEN TAKING EXCELLENT CARE OF IT AFTER 5 YEARS-THE PAINT SHOULD NOT BE PEELING!
DEFECTIVE STARTER MEANT I WAS OFTEN STRANDED, UNABLE TO START THE CAR. HAD TO REPLACE STARTER ON CAR AFTER LESS THAN FOUR YEARS OF USE.
ALMOST DAILY THE CAR WILL NOT START ON THE FIRST TRY. IT CAN TAKE UP TO 10 ATTEMPTS TO GET IT STARTED. ALL OF THE LIGHTS ON DASH TURN ON AND I HEAR A CLICK BUT IT DOESN'T START. SOMETIMES IF I STEP OUT OF THE CAR AND REINTRODUCE THE KEY IT WORKS BUT NOT ALWAYS. WE CHANGED THE KEY FOB BATTERY, HAD THE RECALL FIXED AND THE DEALER SAID CAR HAD A GOOD INSPECTION. BATTERY AND STARTER ARE GOOD.
I DROVE MY CAR FOR 10 MINUTES AND THEN STOP AT THE GAS STATION TO PUT SOME GAS THEN AFTER I TRIED TO TURN IT ON AGAIN BUT MY CAR WILL NOT START AND THEN AFTER WAITING FOR MORE THAN 30 MINUTES HE DID FINALLY START BUT ALL THE LIGHTS WERE STILL ON THEN I DROVE IT FOR ANOTHER FIVE MINUTES AND STOP THE CAR TO PARK AND THEN WAIT FOR FIVE MINUTES AND THEN THE CAR START AGAIN BUT THE LIGHTS WERE OFF THIS TIME I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS SAFE BUT IT'S BEEN DOING THIS FOR MORE THAN THREE TIMES ALREADY I DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
MY TRANSMISSION WANT OUT YESTERDAY WITH 10400 MILES ON AND NO LIGHTS OR NOTHING CAME ON SAYING ABOUT TRANSMISSION
WHILE PARKING CAR REAR BACK UP CAMERA HAS A BLACK SCREEN..
PASSENGER SIDE REAR BRAKE CAPILER SEIZED ON A 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH ONLY 41,400 MILES ON THE CAR. THANKFULLY IT DIDN'T CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. BEFORE THE FAILURE, BRAKE PADS WERE GOOD AND MEASURED 7 ON FRONTS AND 6 ON THE REARS. THE CAR HAD ALL ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT AND THE 3 YEAR MANUFACTURERS WARRANTY HAD ENDED ABOUT 9 MONTHS PRIOR TO THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE OF THE CAPILER DESTROYED THE BRAKE PAD MAKING THE BRAKE METAL ON METAL WHICH RUINED THE ROTOR. THE FAILURE REQUIRED THE CAR TO NEED REPLACEMENT OF REAR CAPILERS, BRAKE PADS, AND ROTORS ON BOTH REAR TIRES. THE SAFETY DEPARTMENT SHOULD LOOK INTO DEFECTS OF THE HONDA ACCORD REAR BRAKING SYSTEM BECAUSE THESE DEFECTS/FAILURES COULD CAUSE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES.
INTERMITTENT PROBLEM STARTING THE CAR. AT TIMES THE CAR WOULD START NORMALLY AFTER THE FIRST TURN OF THE KEY. AT OTHER TIMES IT MAY TAKE MORE THAN ONE TURN OF THE KEY OR AS MANY AS 7 TO 10 TURNS OF THE KEY FOR THE CAR TO START. THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN PARK AT ALL TIMES. BEFORE THE CAR STARTED, ALL ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT SUCH AS RADIO, WINDSHIELD, A/C, DASHBOARD LIGHTS WERE WORKING AS NORMAL. THIS CONDITION HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. THERE WAS NO WORK DONE ON THE CAR; ALL ELECTRICAL AND ENGINE PARTS THE SAME AS WHEN THE CAR WAS FIRST PURCHASED.
STICKING PISTON RINGS RESULTING IN HIGH ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION: VEHICLE MAINTAINED BY DEALER INCLUDING OIL CHANGES. VEHICLE HAS NO OIL IN RESERVOIR BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. VEHICLE BURNS OIL. PISTON RINGS STICK AND IT CAUSES OIL TO BURN EXCESSIVELY. THERE ARE MULTIPLE CAMPAIGNS THAT HONDA KNOWS ABOUT. THEY KNEW ABOUT TSB 17-089 AND STILL GAVE MY VEHICLE A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED STATUS WITHOUT FIXING THE ENGINE PROBLEM FIRST. IT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE A VEHICLE WITH NO OIL IN IT!
I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD SPORT, PEARL WHITE COLOR WITH 48,900 MILES. I WAS WASHING MY CAR (9/01/19) AND I NOTICED THAT THE PAINT IS CHIPPING ON THE SIDES OF THE REAR WINDOW CHANNEL.
I HAVE BEEN STRANDED MULTIPLE TIMES DUE TO MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD COUPE NOT STARTING. ONE TIME I WAS PARKED OUT OF TOWN. ANOTHER TIME I WAS IN TOWN, AFTER STOPPING MY VEHICLE AT A RESIDENCE WHERE I WAS VISITING. I HAVE REPLACED THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY. THE OTHER DAY IT TOOK 50 ATTEMPTS BEFORE MY CAR FINALLY STARTED. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WONDER IF MY 4 YEAR OLD CAR WILL START WHEN I NEED TO GO SOMEWHERE. THE STARTER IS $640.00 PLUS TAX AND AFTER PUTTING APPROX $700.00 IN ALREADY TO ONLY CONTINUE TO HAVE THE SAME ISSUE, I AM NOT WILLING TO PUT MORE MONEY IN TO POSSIBLY SOLVE THE ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN A GROWING CONCERN FOR NUMEROUS PEOPLE ON A CAR DISCUSSION BOARD. SOME HAVE REPLACED THE STARTER AND STILL HAVE THE ISSUE. I HAVE THE RECEIPTS FOR THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR IF NEEDED.
AT ~92,500 MILES, THIS CAR HAS SUDDENLY BEGUN IN THE PAST WEEK TO SHUT OFF WHILE ACCELERATING/DRIVING (IN MOTION) ON SURFACE STREETS AND FREEWAYS. THE MULTIFUNCTION SCREEN AND/OR SOUND SYSTEM AND/OR DASH/ENGINE/ACCELERATION WILL SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE I AM OPERATING THE VEHICLE IN TRAFFIC ANYWHERE FROM 15-65 MPH. WHEN IT HAS HAPPENED, THE SYSTEM HAS QUICKLY REBOOTED AND ALLOWED ME TO RESUME DRIVING. IT FEELS VERY UNSAFE AND UNPREDICTABLE.
MY BATTERY IS EXPERIENCING AN ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE EVERY TIME I START MY CAR, WHEN I TAP THE BATTERY CHANNELS THE CAR STARTS AGAIN AND I HAVE TO REPROGRAM DUE TO SHUT DOWN. IT HAS CONTINUE TO HAPPEN AS OF JULY 15,2019.
THE CAR SOMETIMES HAS TROUBLE STARTING. I HAVE PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY AS THE ORIGINAL WENT BAD (THE ORIGINAL BATTERY WAS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND HAD AROUND 35,000 MILES). THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO HAVE RESOLVED AND NOW A FEW MONTHS LATER THE CAR IS ACTING UP AGAIN. IT ONLY HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY AND I CANNOT REPRODUCE THE SYMPTOMS. THIS IS BASICALLY A BRAND NEW CAR BUT IT SEEMS AS THE ALTERNATOR OR STARTER IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.
TAKATA RECALL: WHEN STARTING THE CAR, THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON STATING: "EMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM & ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM PROBLEM." THIS SOMEHOW TRIGGER A SAFE FAIL MODE THAT PROHIBITS THE CAR GOING FASTER THAN APPROXIMATELY 40 MILES AN HOUR. WHEN THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS, IT SHOWED DTC P2602 STORED FOR ELECTRIC WATER PUMP LOW VOLTAGE. THEY WERE ABLE TO PERFORM THE ELECTRIC WATER PUMP PERFORMANCE AND IT CLEARED THE CODE. BUT WITHIN 24 HOURS, THE DTC RETURNS AND THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AGAIN AND THE CAR WOULDN'T BE ABLE GO FASTER THAN 40 MILES PER HOUR..
THERE HAS BEEN AN ISSUE RECALLED FOR 2015 HONDA ACCORDS AND THEIR FUEL PUMP. I WAS ALMOST IN A CAR ACCIDENT WHILE IN A MAJOR HIGHWAY. WHY CAN'T THINS ISSUE BE FIXED, OR WHY ISN'T THERE A RECALL AVAILABLE FOR MY VIN? WHEN THERE IS AN ACTUAL RECALL ON THIS ISSUE.
THE STARTER MOTOR SOLENOID FAILS TO ENGAGE CAUSING THE ENGINE TO NOT START. THIS STARTED AT AROUND 38,000 MILES AND HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE STARTER MOTOR.
THE IGNITION SWITCH IS A PROBLEM, IT WORKS ON AND OFF. I CHECKED THE BATTERY CABLES AND THEY ARE CLEAN AND FIRMLY SECURED. I REPLACED THE FOB BATTERY TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE ONLY 35,000 MILES ON IT. I UNDERSTAND THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH HONDA. THIS IS CONSTANT PROBLEM WHEN I ATTEMPT TO START THE CAR.
THE STARTER IN 2015 HONDA FAIL.
THERE ARE TIMES WHEN MY CAR WON'T START ON THE FIRST TRY. IT SOME TIMES TAKES 3 OR 4 TRIES. WE HAVE CHECKED THE BATERRY AND ITS WORKING JUST FINE. IT SEEMS LIKE ITS THE STARTER. IT KEEPS HAPPENING MORE OFTEN NOW.

GOT OFF WORK ONE NIGHT GOT IN MY CAR TO GO HOME TURN THE KEY AND IT DON'T START. SO THEN I TRY TO REMOVE THE KEY IT ALSO WOULD NOT LET ME REMOVE IT FROM THE IGNITION. SO THEN I PULLED THE HOOD RELEASE. WHEN I OPENED THE HOOD I SEE A SQUIRREL UNDER THE HOOD. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME A RODENT CHEWED UP SOME WIRING SO IT MADE THE CAR THINK IT WAS IN GEAR THAT'S WHY IT WOULDN'T START. I DID A LITTLE RESEARCH COME TO FIND OUT THE WIRING IN THE HONDA ARE SOY-COATED WIRING AND RODENTS LOVE CHEWING ON THAT.
I WAS DRIVING MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD ON MY NORMAL DRIVE HOME FROM WORK ON JULY 1, 2019 WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I HEARD A WEIRD POW SOUND. NOT KNOWING WHAT IT WAS I SLOWED DOWN BECAUSE I THOUGHT EITHER I RAN OVER SOMETHING OR SOME OTHER VEHICLE HAD AN ISSUE. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I REALIZED THAT MY ENTIRE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED / SHATTER UNDER UNKNOWN CIRCUMSTANCES. I WAS AN THE INTERSTATE DRIVING 65 MPH IN LIGHT TRAFFIC AND THE WEATHER WAS PARTLY CLEAR.
I HAVE STARTED TO EXPERIENCE, NOW ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, GRINDING OF THE STARTER AS DESCRIBED IN HONDA TSB 16-002. APPARENTLY THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN WELL DOCUMENTED BY OTHER CONSUMERS. I FEEL THIS IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT HONDA CONTINUES TO DENY. I WISH TO ADD MY COMPLAINT TO THE OTHERS IN HOPES OF EVENTUALLY HAVING A RECALL ISSUED.
PURCHASED VEHICLE A YEAR AGO AND HAVING PROBLEMS WITH PUSH BUTTON STARTER. LIGHTS AND RADIO WILL COME ON BUT WHEN YOU PUSH THE BUTTON TO START IT JUST CLICKS. HAVE REPLACED BATTERY TWICE AND HAD NEW STARTER AND STILL HAVING PROBLEMS
ON GOING STARTING PROBLEM. FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTH EVERY TIME IN THE MORNINGS IT HESITATE TO START. SOMETIME IT TAKE SEVEN OR MORE TRY TO GET THE CAR STARTED BY PUTTING IN TO NEUTRAL, TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL, PUMP THE BRAKE ETC. DON'T KNOW WHY AND HOW AND WHO WILL BE RESPONSIBLE TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM?
I BOUGHT THIS CAR 8/7/16- CERTIFIED FROM DUBLIN HONDA. BASED ON MODEL YEAR I SHOULDN'T HAD TO DEAL WITH A DEFECTIVE STARTER. REPLACED APPROX 12/2018. CAR WOULD GIVE ME A HARD TIME STARTING IT . I DRIVE 10 MILES/ DAY TO AND FROM HOME /WORK
I BOUGHT THIS CERTIFIED VEHICLE 8/7/16 FROM DUBLIN HONDA. THIS VEHICLE HAS A BACK UP CAMERA AS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT IS STANDARD ON ALL MODELS. IT HAS A DEFECTIVE BACKUP CAMERA. BACK UP CAMERA IS COMPLETELY BLACK WHEN I BACK UP. HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSABLE TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE CAMERAS AS THEY ARE NOT OPTIONAL
I HAD MY BATTERY CHECK DUE TO A BATTERY RECALL FROM HONDA. AFTER THEY FIXED THE ISSUE. I EXPERIENCE A HARD START AND THEN AFTER THE CAR START. I SEE ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND OTHER WARNING LIGHTS. ENGINE CODE P2101.
HORN BUTTON ( LEFT SIDE) ON THE STEERING WILL NOT WORK. DEPRESSING THE HORN BUTTON ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE STEERING WHEEL WILL NOT ACTIVATE THE HORN. RIGHT SIDE IS OK.
TAKATA RECALL CAR DOES NOT WANT TO START SUDDENLY, IT HAPPENS AFTER IT RAINS USUALLY BUT TODAY IT DID NOT RAIN AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN I READ REVIEWS OF OTHERS WHO HAD SAME PROBLEMS ALL THE DASH SYMBOLS GO ON TOO IT HAPPENS AFTER I SHUT CAR OFF AND SHORTLY TRY TO RESTART IT
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO APOSTOLAKIS HONDA (LOCATED AT 3156 ELM RD, CORTLAND, OH 44410, (800) 900-4600) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STARTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.
REAR DISC BRAKE CALIPERS LOCKED UP CAUSING EMERGENCY BRAKE TO STAY APPLIED TO BRAKES RESULTING IN LOSS OF BRAKE PAD AND BURNING OF BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. ALSO, BRAKE LOSS OCCURRED WHEN THE CAR BATTERY FAILED CAUSING THE BRAKE ASSIST SYSTEM TO FAIL. THE SECOND INCIDENT RESULTED IN A COLLISION WITH A PARKED VEHICLE.
PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR STARTING. AFTER PRESSING THE START BUTTON IT SOUNDS LIKE STATIC, CLICKS, OR DOES NOTHING AT ALL. EXTENDED WARRANTY HAS REPLACED, BATTERY AND STARTER TWICE IN A 2 MONTH PERIOD AND STILL SAME PROBLEM. CAR ONLY HAS 56,000 MILES. DEALER CAN'T SEEM TO FIX PROBLEM. HAVE HAD CAR ONLY 13 MONTHS.
I TRIED TO START MY VEHICLE WITH THE PUSH BUTTON AND IT WON'T START. ONLY 62000 MILES AND THE BATTERY TESTED GOOD. SEEMS TO BE THE STARTER OR SOMETHING ELECTRONIC THAT IS FAILING. BUT SOMETIMES IT FIRES RIGHT UP. I'VE READ STARTERS HAVE BEEN AN ISSUE AND WANTED TO REPORT MINE AS WELL.
THE ACTUATORS ON THE DRIVERS SIDE AND THE PASSENGERS REAR DOOR ARE BOTH BAD MECHANIC COULD NOT FIX BECAUSE OF SUCH HIGH DEMAND THERE WAS NONE IN STOCK SEEMED TO BE A DEFECT ON MANUFACTURER
INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WITH STARTING. PUSH IGNITION BUTTON A FEW TIMES BEFORE IT WILL START ALTHOUGH THERE IS POWER. THEN FINALLY COMPLETELY FAILED TO START. BATTERY IS GOOD, STARTER GOOD... EXTRA VOLTAGE BY JUMP STARTING SEEMS TO TEMPORARILY FIX IT. NO HONDA ACKNOWLEDGEMENT ON THE ISSUE ALTHOUGH IT'S WIDELY DOCUMENTED BY OWNERS.
2015 HONDA HAS INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH STARTING. I HEAR A CLICK AND THEN IT DOESN'T START. MY RADIO SHOWS AND SO DO MY DASH LIGHTS. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO BE RESETTING MY RADIO CLOCK. I PLUG A JUMPER PACK IN AND IT IMMEDIATELY STARTS. I TOOK IT TO AUTOZONE AND MY BATTERY IS 100%. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATE THAT MY BATTERY, STARTER, AND ALTERNATOR ARE WORKING GREAT. THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR, BUT ONCE I LEAVE TO STOP IN TO A STORE FOR 10 MINUTES, IT SUDDENLY WON'T START AGAIN. IT IS HAPPENING JUST OUT OF THE WARRANTY PERIOD. I BOUGHT THIS CERTIFIED USED IN JUNE LAST YEAR AND THIS IS MY THIRD BATTERY. I AM JUMPING MY CAR REGULARLY EACH DAY AS I DRIVE AROUND.
SEVERAL TIMES A DAY, WHEN STARTING OFF FROM A STANDING STILL, IT APPEARS TO BE FUEL STARVED. MANY TIMES THIS LASTS FROM 1-2 SECONDS TO ABOUT 5 SECONDS! I RETURNED THIS VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER IN PANAMA CITY, FL WHO DROVE THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 15-20 MINUTES THEN INFORMED ME, 'THIS IS NORMAL!'
TRY TO START VEHICLE AND ONE FAINT CLICK HAPPENS, NO START. PROBLEM PERSISTS. IF I WAIT A MINUTE OR SO AND TRY AGAIN, SOMETIMES IT WILL WORK. OTHER TIMES, I'VE NEEDED SOMEONE TO JUMP MY CAR. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SAYS EVERYTHING IS FINE. REPLACED THE BATTERY 7 MONTHS AGO. THIS HAS OCCURRED ABOUT 5 TIMES OVER THE LAST 2.5 MONTHS. BOTH IN THE MORNING AND LATER IN THE DAY. BOTH COOLER WEATHER AND WARMER. CAR IS USUALLY STATIONARY FOR 8-12 HRS BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE.
IN 4 YEARS I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY TWICE AND NOW I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE STARTER. AND THE CAR HAS ONLY 48000 MILES. POOR QUALITY PRODUCTS INSTALLED ON HONDA CARS THAT USED TO BE ONE OF THE MOST RELIABLES IN THE MARKET
WHY IS THERE EXCESSIVE AND UNEVEN REAR WHEEL BREAK PAD WEAR ON MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD EX-L V-6 ? THIS CAR HAS ALWAYS BEEN DRIVEN SIGNIFICANTLY MORE ON THE HIGHWAY THEN IN THE CITY. AND THE WORST OF THE EXCESSIVE REAR BRAKE PAD WEAR OCCURRED DURING THE LAST 8743 MILES.

EXCEPT FOR THE REAR BRAKE PAD WEAR THE MULTI-POINT VEHICLE INSPECTION FOUND ON OTHER ISSUES.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON FREEWAY THE STEERING WHEEL STOPPED WORKING, THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED AND COULDN'T MOVE AND THE CAR WAS STILL DRIVING AT 65 MPH
WHILE DRIVING ALL MY LIGHTS CAME ON IT IS DUE TO THE ABS GOING OUT BUT MY WARRANTY IS UP. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE GONE INTO NY MECHANIC AND THIS MUST BE FIXED BECAUSE IF THERE IS A TRUE PROBLEM, I WOULDN'T KNOW IT DUE TO THE FACT ALL LIGHTS ARE ON. THE PART ALONE IS 1500 DOLLARS. WHY NOT FIX THIS ISSUE SO CONSUMERS ARE OUT OF POCKET FOR SOMETHING THAT IS FAULTY. THE BURLESON DEALERSHIP STATED IT WAS A COMPUTER IN MY CAR THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. CHARGING ME A 100 DOLLARS JUST TO GIVE ME THE WRONG INFO. AND SAYING THE WORK WOULD BE OVER 2500 DOLLARS. I WAS ON THE HWY WHEN ALL LIGHTS CAME ON.

FUEL SYSTEM, OTHER:DELIVERY:FUEL PUMP AFTER HAVING THIS RECALL DONE ON MY CAR, I AM NOW HAVING FUEL ISSUES AS IF ITS NOT GETTING ENOUGH FUEL OR IT USES WAY TO MUCH. I USED HALF A TANK OF GAS TO GO 60 MILES. AND THEN ON THE WAY BACK I USED 1/8 OF A TANK. THIS WAS ALL INTERSTATE MILES BUT 10 MILES AND THAT WAS HIGHWAY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHEN THE CONTACT'S WIFE ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE BY PUSHING THE START BUTTON, THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START.

JUNE 2018 I TOOK MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD FOR A BATTERY SENSOR RECALL. THE HONDA DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY SENSOR. NOW I'M HAVING ISSUE OF CAR NOT START. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE BATTERY. THE HONDA DEALER TESTED THE BATTERY AND THE BATTERY IS GOOD. AFTER SEVERAL WEEKS THE CAR WON'T START AGAIN. AFTER READING A SERVICE BULLETIN ABOUT THE BATTERY SENSOR. I TESTED THE BATTERY SENSOR AND IT THE TEST. THE BATTERY SENSOR THAT THE HONDA DEALER REPLACED WAS FAULTY AFTER 9 MONTHS OF USE.
PERIODICALLY MY CAR WOULDN'T START AND I WOULD GET A GRINDING SOUND FROM THE STARTER EARLY IN THE MORNING WHEN IT'S OARKED IN MY DRIVE WAY. ALSO WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING AFTER PUTTING A FULL TANK OF GAS IN MY CAR I WOULD SOMETIMES GET A BOGGING DOWN ISSUE AS IF I DON'T HAVE ENOUGH GAS OR AS IF THE MOTOR ISN'T GETTING ENOUGH GAS.
MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD HAD FUEL PRESSURE PROBLEM 2 MONTHS AGO. I HAD IT FIXED AT AN AUTO REPAIR. REPLACED FUEL PUMP, FUEL LINE, THROTTLE GASKETS FOLLOWING BY HONDA BULLETIN . IT COSTED ME $1200 FOR THIS REPAIR. TODAY, MARCH 20TH, 2019, I FOUND OUT HONDA PUBLICED A RECALL ON THIS FUEL PUMP ISSUES BUT MY VEHICLE WAS NOT ON THE LIST OF RECALL. TODAY MY VEHICLE HAD SAME ISSUES. CANNOT START.
DRIVING ON HWY STEERING BEGAN TO PULL. I ATTEMPTED TO CORRECT WHEN I NOTED STEERING WAS MORE DIFFICULT. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE HWY BUT FOUND WHEN I STOPPED I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL. I THEN CALLED MY HUSBAND AND INFORMED HIM OF MY SITUATON. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S THE RACK AND PINION POWER STEERING. I ONLY HAVE 19,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE
2015 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO BATTERY SENSOR SAFETY RECALL NOTICE. *AS *TR
TAKARA INFLATORS DIDN'T DEPLOY WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IS A HORRIBLE FRONT END ACCIDENT INVOLVING INJURIES ALSO AD FOR THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM PROBLEM MY CLIMATE CONTROL NEVER TURNS ON AND I'VE BEEN BACK AND FORTH AT THE HONDA DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIND THE ISSUE THEY TOLD ME ITS SOMETHING TO DO WITH ELECTRICAL
THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO START. JUMPED THE CAR WITH ANOTHER CAR VIA BATTERY CABLE THEN IT STARTED. DROVED THE CAR HOME ABOUT 4 MILE DRIVE. CHECKED BATTERY VOLTAGE WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING AND IT READS 12.4 VOLTS WHICH IS A LOW READING. TURNED OFF THE CAR AND TRIED TO RESTART AND THE CAR WON'T START. CHARGED THE BATTERY WITH A BATTERY CHARGER AND RESTARTED THE CAR AGAIN THIS TIME THE CAR STARTED. CHECKED THE BATTERY VOLTAGE AGAIN WHILE IT RUNNING AND THIS TIME BATTERY VOLTAGE READS 14.5 VOLTS. SOME WEIRD IS HAPPENING WITH THE CHARGING SYSTEM WITH THIS CAR. THIS HAPPEN 3 TIMES ALREADY. IT'S INTERMITTENT PROBLEM THAT IT WON'T START. IT'S NOT THE BATTERY AND IT'S NOT THE ALTERNATOR.
STARTER WENT OUT. REPLACED STARTER. STARTER BEGAN TO ACT UP AGAIN. STARTER OUT AGAIN. COULD POSSIBLY BE A PROBLEM WITH A PART THAT IS CONNECTED TO THE STARTER.
I AM UNABLE TO START VEHICLE WHEN PRESSING PUSH START BUTTON. THE VEHICLE WILL START AFTER APPROXIMATELY 10-15 TIMES OF TRYING. IT STARTED HAPPENING TWO WEEKS AGO BUT VEHICLE WOULD IGNITE WITH NO MORE THAN TWO TRIES. VEHICLE WILL NOW START AFTER MULTIPLE TIMES GETTING WORST EVERY DAY. BATTERY LIFE WAS CHECKED AND NO ISSUES WERE FOUND WITH BATTERY. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I TURN OFF VEHICLE AND TRY TO RESTART.
STARTER GRINDING NOISE! ASKED HONDA DEALER ABOUT THE GRINDING NOISE? THEY COULD NOT GET THE STARTER TO MAKE THE NOISE(38,139 MILES((5/2017)). SPEED AHEAD 1 1/2 YEARS. I PUT 2 STARTERS AND A NEW BATTERY(2/19). STILL HAVING GRINDING ISSUES(51,326 MILES). CALLED AMERICAN HONDA CORP. TO SEE ABOUT ANY RECALLS.THEY WANTED A HONDA DEALER TO DIAGNOSE COMPLAINT. JUST GOT BACK FROM DEALER(2-16-2019). THE HONDA DEALER TOLD ME ABOUT A SERVICE BULLETIN: STARTER GRINDING OR SPINS AT STARTUP. (2013-2016 ACCORD V6 A/T ONLY & 2013-2015 CROSSTOUR V6 A/T ONLY). CORRECTIVE ACTION: REPLACE STARTER (PT# 31200-5G0-A04) AND ROTATE THE TORQUE CONVERTER CLOCKWISE 1 BOLT HOLE). THE HONDA DEALER SAID IT WOULD COST ROUGHLY $600 PLUS DOLLARS TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM. IF THIS IS SUCH AN ISSUE ON THESE SPECIFIC VEHICLES, THEN WHY IS THERE NOT A RECALL!!!
PROBLEM WITH GEAR BOX, BATTERY SENSOR AND ALSO STARTER
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HENNESSY HONDA OF WOODSTOCK (3701, 8931 GA-92, WOODSTOCK, GA 30189, (770) 924-9000) WHERE THE STARTER WAS REPLACED, BUT FAILED TO REMEDY THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY BEING TOWED TO THE SAME DEALER FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
I AM HAVING THE PROBLEM WHEN I GO TO START MY CAR IT CLICKS BUT WON'T TURN OVER UNTIL AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. NEW BATTERY NOT THE PROBLEM ALL LIGHTS ARE WORKING .IT BEGAN AFTER I WENT AND HAD A BATTERY SENSOR RECALL DONE. AFTER SEVERAL REACH OUTS I SEE THIS IS A MAJOR COMPLAINT ON THIS YEAR OF VEHICLE.
WE HAVE HAD INTERMITTENT PROBLEMS WHERE THE CAR WILL NOT START. IT JUST MAKES A CLICKING SOUND. WE CAN JUMP START IT AND DRIVE IT AROUND AND SOMETIMES THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY FOR MONTHS AT A TIME. THEN RANDOMLY IT WILL NOT START AGAIN. I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY AND CHARGING SYSTEM CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES BY AUTOZONE, ADVANCE AUTO, O'REILLY, AND WALMART SERVICE CENTER. THE BATTERY AND CHARGING SYSTEM ALWAYS REPORTS AS FINE. I RECENTLY HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT WALMART AND THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT GET IT TO START. HE JUMPED IT AND DROVE AROUND TO THE OTHER SIDE OF THE BAY TO CHECK THE BATTERY AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. HE REMOVED THE CABLES AND CLEANED THE TERMINALS AND SPRAYED ON BATTERY POST PROTECTANT AND THEN JUMPED IT AGAIN. I DROVE HOME AND HAD NOT HAD ANY PROBLEMS FOR OVER A MONTH AND NOW IT HAS HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS ALL STARTED AFTER HAVING THE FACTORY RECALL BATTERY MANAGEMENT SENSOR REPLACED IN LATE 2017. THIS IS AT LEAST THE EIGHT TIME OVER THE PAST 1+ YEARS. I WAS TOLD BY AT LEAST ONE AUTOZONE EMPLOYEE THAT THEY HAVE SEEN MANY HONDA VEHICLES WITH A SIMILAR PROBLEM BECAUSE THE BATTERY SENSOR OR MAIN FUSE BLOCK WILL INTERMITTENTLY BLOCK ANY VOLTAGE COMING FROM THE BATTERY INTO THE STARTING SYSTEM. IT IS RANDOM AND WILL SOMETIMES EVEN PREVENT A JUMP START UNLESS YOU TAP ON THE TOP OF THE SENSOR. AND THEN IT STARTS FINE. MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THERE IS NO SUCH PROBLEM AND REFUSED TO CALL ME BACK TO HAVE THE VEHICLE CHECKED WHILE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I AM NOW OUT OF WARRANTY DUE TO THE DATE OF PURCHASE AND NOT MILEAGE AND ALL THEY WILL SAY IS THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE MY STARTER IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED WHICH WILL COST OVER $700 NOW THAT I AM OUT OF WARRANTY.
MY 2015 ACCORD HAS APPROX 62,000 MILES, I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE NEW AND IT HAS BEEN 100% MAINTAINED PRECISELY TO ALL MAINTENANCE SCHEDULES BY SCOTT HONDA OF WEST CHESTER PA SINCE NEW. FOLLOWING A DISSATISFACTORY SERVICE VISIT TO SCOTT HONDA, I OPENED HOOD TO PERFORM MINOR FLUIDS CHECK, AND OBSERVED ALARMING CORROSION OF BATTERY TERMINALS. I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS LEVEL OF ACCUMULATION OF CORROSION ON BATTERY TERMINALS FOR ANY VEHICLE IN MY LIFE. THIS IS NOT NORMAL. I DISCONNECTED, CAREFULLY INSPECTED AND CLEANED BOTH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE TERMINALS AND HARDWARE. THE POSITIVE CABLE FITTING IS DISINTEGRATED AND NEARLY THE THICKNESS REMAINING EQUIVALENT TO A PIECE OF "ALUMINUM FOIL". REMOVING THE FINISHING TAPE OF POSITIVE HARNESS REVEALS HEAVY GREEN/BLUE CORROSION BEYOND BATTERY FITTING AND CABLE SWAGE. ALSO OBSERVED HEAVILY CORRODED NEGATIVE BATTERY CONNECTION BEHIND DRIVER-SIDE WHEEL. NEGATIVE TERMINALS AND CONNECTIONS ARE ALSO CORRODED AT BATTERY AND BATTERY SENSOR. BATTERY SENSOR WAS SERVICED IMMEDIATELY UPON RECALL NOTICE BY SCOTT HONDA. BATTERY IS OEM ORIGINAL AND EXHIBITS NO SIGNS OF BATTERY PROBLEMS OR STARTING...BEYOND CORROSION. SCOTT HONDA NEVER ALERTED OF THE BATTERY CORROSION MATTER, NOR ASSERTED ANY SERVICE NEED OR PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE TO CORRECT CONDITION. THUS, THERE VERY MANY "SAFETY CHECKLISTS" AND STATE INSPECTIONS ARE LARGELY SYSTEMATIC "WINDOW DRESSING". SCOTT HONDA HAS IGNORED MY WRITTEN REQUESTS AND PHOTOS FOR EXPLANATION, ROOT CAUSE, OR FOLLOW UP. I WILL SEEK COMPENSATION FROM AMERICAN HONDA TO REPLACE ALL BATTERY CABLE HARNESSES AND INSPECTION OF ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AT HONDA EXPENSE. PHOTOS ARE ATTACHED. I URGE ACCORD OWNERS TO VISUALLY PERFORM THEIR OWN UNDER-HOOD INSPECTIONS....REGARDLESS THE AMOUNT INSPECTIONS THEY PERCEIVE TO BE PERFORMED BY DEALER.
CAR BATTERY ISSUES. WON'T HOLD A CHARGE. WILL NOT START AT RANDOM WEEKLY. JUST CLICKS EVEN AFTER DRIVING FOR 30 MINS AND RETURNING TO CAR. TOOK IT TO DEALER, BATTERY GOOD, ALTERNATOR GOOD, STARTER GOOD. 2DAYS LATER HAPPENS AGAIN. ESPECIALLY AFTER PUTTING IN FUEL. TURN CAR ON, BATTERY DEAD. RIDICULOUS. TAKE IT BACK TO DEALER. ALL DIAGNOSTICS GOOD. GO TO WORK, COME OUT TO LEAVE BATTERY DEAD. GET A JUMP FROM CO WORKER, DRIVE HOME. NEXT MORNING DEAD. TAKE IT TO AUTOZONE FOR CHARGE, BATTERY LOW ON CHARGE. GET BATTERY CHARGED 4 HOURS, DRIVE TO NY & BACK HOME. GO OUT TO 7ELEVEN BATTERY DEAD, CLICK CLICK. AUTOZONE OR DEALER REFUSE TO SELL BATTERY BECAUSE BATTERY READS GOOD. WHAT'S THE ISSUE. HONDA WITHOUT EVEN CHECKING CAR SAYS IT'S A MAJOR ISSUE WITH 'THESE' CARS AND $700 FOR NEW BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR!!! FOR WHAT? FORD DEALER (WHERE PURCHASED) GAVE THE 'ALL GOOD' AS DID AUTOZONE TESTING.
ON THURSDAY, JANUARY 17TH, 2019 THE SUNROOF EXPLODED ON MY 2015 ACCORD. I WAS DRIVING ON A 45 MPH HIGHWAY LEAVING A TRAFFIC LIGHT. THERE WAS NOTHING OVERHEAD AND NO PRIOR DAMAGE. THE RESIDUAL GLASS WAS POINTING UPWARDS AS IF TO HAVE EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE OUT. THE SOUND WAS ALSO INDICATIVE OF AN EXPLOSION. AS A RESULT, I SWERVED AND ENDED UP WITH GLASS RAINING ON MY HEAD. PLEASE HELP WITH SOMETHING BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. HONDA WAS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL AND WAS VERY RUDE AND CALLOUS ABOUT THE SITUATION AND I'M NOW LEFT WITH A GAPING HOLE THAT I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPAIR.
UNABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. BATTERY TESTED FINE. HONDA DEALERSHIP TOLD ME TO REPLACE THE STARTER AND THE CAR STILL WON'T START TWO DAYS AFTER BEING REPLACED. THE RECALL FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR WAS ALSO DONE ON THE CAR AND THE CAR HAS BEEN VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF.
MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD AFTER 33,000 MILES IS GIVING ME A LOT OF PROBLEM BATTERY WISE. I HAD TO HAVE IT BOOSTED SEVERAL TIMES, I TOOK IT TO A HONDA DEALER WHO DID A THOROUGH CHECK AND WHO CLAIM THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE BATTERY. EVEN BEING VERY CAREFUL ABOUT NOT LEAVING ANYTHING ELECTRIC WHEN THE POWER IS NOT ON, I STILL EXPERIENCE TREMENDOUS PROBLEMS WITH STARTING THE CAR; I HOPE I WONT HAVE TO CHANGE THE BATTERY AT 34,000 MILES AND BARELY 40 MONTHS OLD CAR. ALSO WHILE IN MOTION I EXPERIENCED THE CAR WANTING TO STALL, WITH THE POWER OF THE CAR SHUTTING DOWN FOR A SECOND OR 2. THERE WAS A RECALL HAVING TO DO WITH THE BATTERY.
THE STARTER BUTTON ONLY PRODUCES A CLICKING SOUND WHEN DEPRESSED. THE ENGINE WILL NOT TURN OVER AND DOES NOT START. THE CONDITION IS A SAFETY MATTER AS IT MAKES THE CAR UNUSABLE AND NOT AVAILABLE FOR EMERGENCIES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V418000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM) IN AUGUST OF 2017. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOYD HONDA OF SOUTH HILL VIRGINIA (1121 E ATLANTIC ST, SOUTH HILL, VA 23970, (434) 447-3111) WHERE THE BATTERY SENSOR WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY SENSOR REPLACEMENT WAS TO PREVENT THE BATTERY FROM DYING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09195187. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.
I SEE THERE WAS A RECALL BECAUSE OF LOSS OF ENGINE POWER THAT MAY RESULT IN A VEHICLE STALL INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.IF THE ENGINE LEAKS OIL IN THE PROXIMITY OF A HOT ENGINE OR EXHAUST COMPONENTS ,THERE IS A RISK OF FIE. WELL THIS STALL OR NO POWER HAPPENS TO ME FREQUENTLY SINCE IVE OWN THE CAR. TOLD THEM ABOUT IT WHEN I WENT IN FOR OIL CHANGES BUT WAS NEVER WRITTEN DOWN OR LOOKED AT SO I JUST CHALKED IT UP AS DEALERSHIP DIDN'T WANT TO DEAL WITH IT SO I'D LET IT GO. SO WHEN I WAS LOOKING UP HONDA ROTO TROUBLES .I SAW THIS RECALL AN WONDERING WHY I DIDN'T GET A RECALL SINCE I THINK MY CAR FALLS INTO THIS. SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT AT NO COST TO ME FOR SURE THAT I'VE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS DANGER FOR 4 YEARS AND IS SCARY THAT I'M TRYING TO GO IN THE MIDDLE OF A TURN AND NO POWER THEN IT PICKS UP. THINK ABOUT IT WHEN AN IF YOUR IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND YOUR TRYING TO GO AND A CAR BAREING DOWN ON YOU AND YOU CAN GO BECAUSE OF NO POWER? ONLY WAY LIKE I SAID I FOUND THIS WAS BECAUSE I WAS LOOKING WHY MY REAR ROTORS WERE WARPED AND HAD TO REPLACE THEM. LOVE TO HEAR YOUR INPUT. THANK YOU FOR ATTENTION BUT WON'T BE SURPRISED IF I DON'T HEAR FROM YOU PEOPLE SEE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T CARE!
THE CAR FAILS TO START AFTER SEVERAL TURNS OF THE KEY UP TO 12 TIMES BEFORE STARTING. ONCE IT DOES START, IT STARTS LIKE THERE ISN'T A PROBLEM AT ALL. CAR RARELY STARTS ON THE FIRST TURN OF THE KEY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE ABOUT 47,000 MILES. CAR CURRENTLY HAS 51,000
HAD MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD EX-L IN FOR SERVICE TODAY, AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK THE BRAKES BECAUSE THE PEDAL WAS SOFT AGAIN. IN THE LAST YEAR TO TRY AND CORRECT THE SOFT PEDAL I HAVE REPLACED THE PADS AND ROTORS, AND A FEW MONTHS HAD THE BRAKES BLED. DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THEY HAVE SEEN ISSUES WITH THE MASTER CYLINDER, LUCKY I HAD THE EXTENDED WARRANTY SO IT WILL ONLY COST ME THE DEDUCTIBLE BUT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG HAVE MASTER CYLINDER PROBLEMS AT 36000 MILES.
HONDA ACCORD WINDOWS OPENING WHEN CAR IS LOCKED. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE E.G. SEE HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-C23084_DS575177 IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE WHILE THE CAR IS PARKED OUTSIDE IN MY DRIVEWAY DURING RAINY WEATHER. HONDA DOES DOCUMENT IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL THAT REMOTE OPENING OF WINDOWS IS POSSIBLE IN CERTAIN MODELS WITH A DOUBLE PRESS AND HOLD OF THE DOOR OPEN BUTTON ON THE KEY FOB. SO I CANNOT SAY FOR CERTAIN THAT IT WAS NOT AN INADVERTENT PRESS SEQUENCE ON MY KEY FOB SINCE I DID HAVE IT IN MY POCKET WITH OTHER KEYS IN MY HOUSE. HOWEVER NOTE THAT THIS POSSIBLE INADVERTENT PRESS HAS HAPPENED TWICE - AND OBVIOUSLY CAN HAPPEN AGAIN. I WOULD ALSO SPECULATE THAT SOME RANDOM STRAY SIGNAL MAY TRIGGER THIS, TOTALLY OUT OF MY CONTROL. KEY FOBS THAT CAN ACTUATE WINDOWS AND DOORS INADVERTENTLY ARE UNSAFE AND A PROCESS NEEDS TO BE MADE TO DEACTIVATE THEM UNTIL A DESIRED ACTION IS SPECIFICALLY MADE BY THE DRIVER.
I AM HAVING INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH MY CAR STARTING. IT DOES ONE CLICK AND WON'T START. THERE IS NO TURNING OVER. IT LOOKS LIKE MY RADIO ISN'T RESETTING WHEN IT HAPPENS. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY BATTERY IS 100%, MY STARTER IS FINE, AND MY ALTERNATOR IS FINE AS WELL. AN HOUR AFTER LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP IT DIDN'T START AGAIN. CONNECTIONS AREN'T CORRODED. I HAVE TO ATTACH A BATTERY JUMP START PACK TO START MY CAR EVERY TIME TO FAILS. I HAVE READ FORUMS THAT HAVE CLAIMED THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH FAULTY STARTERS FOR 2013-2015 HONDA ACCORDS, BUT THEY DO NOT HAVE A LEGAL RECALL. MY CAR IS JUST UNDER 50K MILES AT 49,600, AND LIKELY IS JUST OUT OF THE WARRANTY MILEAGE.
WHEN YOU STEP ON BRAKE TO START AUTO, IT MAKES A SOUND AND WILL NOT START, IT IS STATIONARY.
EXCESSIVE INSIDE TIRE TRED WEAR ON ALL 4 TIRES. I HAVE HAD A 4-WHEEL ALIGNMENT DONE TWICE THIS YEAR ALONE. EACH TIME THE MECHANICS ARE EXPLAINING TO ME THAT THE ALIGNMENT IS TO FACTORY SPECS AND THERE ISN'T ANY MECHANICAL ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE CAUSING THIS UNEVEN WEAR. SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR IN OCT. 2015 NEW, I AM ONLY GETTING HALF THE WEAR MILEAGE THE TIRE MANUFACTURER SAYS I SHOULD. UPON DOING SOME RESEACH ONLINE IN CAR FORUMS THERE SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE FACTORY REAR SUSPENSION, CAMBER SETTINGS, THAT IS CAUSING MANY HONDA ACCORD OWNERS TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME UNEVEN WEAR ON THE INTERIOR SIDE OF THE TIRE TREAD. DUE TO THE TIRES CUPPING MY CAR MAKE EXCESSIVE ROAD NOISE AND VIBRATIONS.
I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH ABOUT 34,000 MILES ON IT. A FEW WEEKS AGO I NOTICED I STARTED HAVING TROUBLE TURNING ON MY CAR. WELL THIS MORNING IT JUST WOULDNT START. THE BATTERY IS NEW. WHEN I PRESS THE BRAKE AND PUSH START IT WONT START. I'M GUESSING IT'S MY STARTED. I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE AND THERE ARE TONS OF FORUMS ABOUT DEFECTIVE STARTERS ON 2015 HONDA ACCORDS. WHY ISNT THIS A RECALL?
STARTER DIES NOT START ALL THE TIME. PRESS BUTTON AND HEAR IT GRIND. CAR AS $42,000 MILES. DEALER SAYS NOT UNDER WARRANTY. I HAVE READ TONS OF COMPLAINTS THAT HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THIS. IT MAY STRAND ME IN THE MIDDLE OF WINTER. ISSUE IS WITH 2013-2015 V6 ACCORD. DEALER WANTS $800 TO REPLACE WITH SAME DEFECTIVE PART.
I BOUGHT A 2015 HONDA ACCORD ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO WITH 40,000 MILES ON IT. AT 42,000 MILES, I WAS LEAVING IN THE MORNING FOR WORK AND HAD TO JUMP MY VEHICLE. IT THEN HAPPENED EACH TIME THAT I TRIED TO START MY CAR. THE ALTERNATOR HAD GONE COMPLETELY OUT AND I HAD TO PAY $700 TO FIX. AN ALTERNATOR SHOULD NEVER GO OUT THAT EARLY IN A VEHICLE AT JUST 42,000 MILES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND REVERSED INTO A PARKED VEHICLE. THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED WITH FORCE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED BURNS TO THE ARMS DUE TO THE AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED FROM THE SCENE.

THE RIGHT REAR DOOR DOES NOT OPEN WITH THE REMOTE, OR WITH THE LOCK/UNLOCK INSIDE BUTTON OR MANUALLY. THE SYSTEM IS FROZEN ON THAT SIDE CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR MY CHILDREN THAT HAVE TO TRAVEL IN THE REAR SEAT. THERE IS NO WAY TO OPEN THE REAR DOOR IN CASE OF ACCIDENT/FIRE OR ANY OTHER EMERGENCY.
PARKED CAR AND LOCKED IT BY PUSHING THE BUTTON ON THE DOOR. DID NOT USE THE FOB. CAME BACK LATER AND ALL THE WINDOWS WERE ROLLED FULL DOWN AND THE MOON ROOF WAS OPEN. NO ACTION ON MY PART SEEMED TO CAUSE THIS. SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. FIRST TIME WAS ABOUT A YEAR AGO. READ SOME INTERNET REPORTS ABOUT THIS KIND OF THING HAPPENING WITH OTHER HONDA OWNERS. RISK OF WEATHER DAMAGE TO VEHICLE, THEFT, VANDALISM, ETC.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL SOUND UNDER THE HOOD AND THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO BE COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE SOUND WAS COMING FROM THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT ASSOCIATED WITH A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 06069488. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 64,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHEN THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, THE STARTER FAILED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DAVID MCDAVID HONDA OF IRVING (3700 W AIRPORT FWY, IRVING, TX 75062, 214-516-7502) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STARTER FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.
VEHICLE (4 CYCL, 2015 W/ 20K MILES) FAILED TO START ON THE FIRST TRY, WOULD TAKE 6 OR MORE ATTEMPTS OF THE PUSH BUTTON START TO GET THE VEHICLE TO SUCCESSFULLY START. NO ALARMS, LIGHTS, NOTIFICATION, ETC.. THAT THE VEHICLE SAW AN ISSUE (I.E. KEY FOB NOT PRESENT). HONDA DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A "FAULTY STARTER MOTOR". REPLACEMENT ISN'T COVERED BY THE REMAINING WARRANTY (BUMPER TO BUMPER IS EXPIRED, BUT POWER TRAIN HASN'T). DEALER REPLACEMENT QUOTE IS $693.80.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. AS THE VEHICLE WAS BEING PARKED, IT ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY AND CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER WERE SLIGHTLY INJURED AND HOSPITALIZED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. IT WAS NOT DETERMINED WHETHER OR NOT THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THEY WOULD TOW THE VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALER AFTER IT WAS SERVICED AT AN INDEPENDENT BODY SHOP. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
MY BATTERY IS HAVING TROUBLE. CAR CONTINUES TO RANDOMLY DIE. THERE ARE NO LIGHTS OR ITEMS BEING LEFT ON WHILE I AM OUTSIDE OF MY VEHICLE. BATTERY HAS BEEN TESTED AND REPLACED WITH SAME ISSUE. INSIDE CAR ALL ELECTRICAL STARTS TO FLASH QUICKLY WHEN TRYING TO START MY CAR (THIS SHOWS CAR IS DEAD)
CAR STARTED TO LAG WHEN PRESSING BUTTON TO START THIS MORNING. WENT TO TURN IT ON TO LEAVE IN THE AFTERNOON AND JUST DIED. NO LIGHTS CAME TO US KNOW. JUST DIED. THIS HAPPEN TO US ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO AND WE REPLACE THE BATTERY.
AFTER COMING TO A STOP, THE ENGINES REVS UP AND THE CAR BEGINS TO CREEP FORWARD WITH BRAKE APPLIED UNTIL PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE IS RELEASED AND THEN RPM RETURNS TO NORMAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST FOUR TIMES. YOU STOP THE CAR BY TAKING YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE.
DRIVING. ON 20/59 I HAVE A BROKEN WINDSHIELD FROM THE CONSTRUCTION
MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH ABT 70,000 MILES ON IT; THE CAR WOULDN'T START, THE ENGINE WOULDN'T TURN. IN THE PROCESS OF TROUBLESHOOTING WE DISCOVERED THAT HIS STARTER WENT OUT. WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WASN'T COVERED UNDER WARRANTIES. JUST A FEW MONTHS AGO, OUR NEIGHBOR HAD EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM - HE HAS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD AND HIS CAR'S STARTER WENT OUT. HE SPENT SOME $700 FIXING IT AND IT WAS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OUT OF 3 YEARS 36,000 MILES WARRANTY. THERE SEEMS TO BE A HIGH RATE OF STARTER FAILURES ON NEWER HONDA ACCORDS, WHICH MAY NECESSITATE A RECALL.
FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS MY CAR HAS BEEN HAVING TROUBLE TURNING ON. I HAVE HAD TO CALL GEICO FOR A JUMP START ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS ALREADY. SOMETIMES WHEN I PRESS THE POWER BUTTON, IT STRUGGLES TO TURN ON AND I HAVE TO TRY MULTIPLE TIMES. OTHER TIMES IT WON'T TURN ON UNLESS I USE THE REMOTE START OPTION WITH MY KEY. THE CAR HAS NEVER TURNED OFF ON MY WHILE I AM DRIVING, BUT A FEW TIMES WHILE I AM DRIVING, THE DISPLAY RESTARTS AND IT STARTLES ME BECAUSE IT GOES COMPLETELY BLANK AS IF THE CAR IS GOING TO SHUT OFF.
WHILE DRIVING ON I-75 AT 65 MPH THE CAR SUDDENLY MOVED LEFT AND THE STEERING BECAME VERY HARD TO TURN. THEN THE CAR MOVED SHARPLY RIGHT AND LEFT THE ROADWAY AND STRUCK THE GUARDRAIL DAMASGING THE RIGHT FRONT. THE DEALER, SHOTTENKIRK HONDA IN CARTERSVILLE,GA SAID THEY COULD DO NOTHING AS THE CAR WAS DAMAGED. THE CAR WAS REPAIRED BY A BODY SHOP. THEY SENT IT OUT TO HAVE THE ALIGNMENT DONE. WHEN THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE STEERING CHECKED THEY SAID THE ALIGNMENT WAS OFF AND THE RIGHT FRONT STRUT WAS BENT. THEY REPAIRED IT AND DID THE ALIGNMENT. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK DOES NOT SHOW ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE STEERING. THE REASON IS THAT IT IS TO LONG A TIME SINCE THE INCIDENT. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE CAR MAY NOT BE SAFE TO DRIVE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. UPON ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, AN ABNORMAL WHINING NOISE WAS HEARD. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO DIAMOND HONDA (17525 GALE AVE, CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA 91748, (626) 671-4601) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STARTER WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.
I TOOK MY CAR FOR A BATTERY RECALL. THE DEALER CORRECTED THE BATTERY RECALL BUT I NOTICED SOME ISSUES. MY CAR SOMETIMES EXPERIENCES HARD START AND THEN I WILL GET MULTIPLE ALERTS - ENGINE LIGHT, CHECK STEERING LIGHT, TRACTION LIGHT AND TIRE PRESSURE LOW LIGHT ON. I CHECKED THE INTERNET AND MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN POSTED WITH SIMILAR ISSUE AND SYMPTOMS.
DIFFICULTY STARTING. KEYLESS ENTRY SENSES KEY BUT FAILS TO START WHEN BRAKE IS DEPRESSED AND IGNITION BUTTON IS PRESSED. HAPPENING MULTIPLE TIMES/WEEK AND BECOMING MORE FREQUENT. OFTEN STARTS AFTER 2-3 ATTEMPTS. NOT RESOLVED BY REPLACING BATTERY, RESOLVING BATTERY SENSOR RECALL, OR CHECKING FUEL PUMP. PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE STARTER AND HAS LEFT ME STRANDED WHEN CAR DOES NOT START.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V418000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT CALLED DAVID MCDAVID HONDA OF IRVING (3700 W AIRPORT FWY, IRVING, TX 75062, 469-713-3594) MORE THAN THREE TIMES AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE AND AN APPOINTMENT WOULD BE SCHEDULED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE.
MY SUNROOF EXPLODED TWICE WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, JANUARY 31, 2018 AND AGAIN ON FEBRUARY 26, 2018. AFTER ESCALATING MY CONCERNS TO HONDA CORPORATE IN CALIFORNIA, LUCAS HONDA MADE THE REPAIRS, ALTHOUGH THE SECOND REPAIR WAS IMPROPERLY DONE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO LUCAS HONDA MARCH 13, 2018 FOR THE SECOND REPAIR BECAUSE IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WITH ALL THE LOOSE AND BROKEN GLASS EVERYWHERE, PLUS I HAD JUST RETURNED TO FL FROM TX AFTER HAVING MAJOR SURGERY WHICH LIMITED MY MOBILITY. I CALLED AND EMAILED TRACY TO LET HIM KNOW THAT THERE WAS A SMALL GAP IN THE RUBBER LINING THAT WAS AFFIXED TO THE GLASS AS WELL AS THERE WAS STILL LOOSE GLASS THAT I COULD HEAR WHEN TURNING THE CAR OR OPENING THE SUNROOF. IN FACT, THE SUNROOF JAMMED AND IT TOOK ABOUT 10 MINUTES TO GET IT CLOSED AGAIN, FROM THAT POINT I DIDN'T OPEN IT AGAIN. HE LEFT A VOICEMAIL ON 03/16/18 SAYING THAT ONCE IT HEATS UP THE RUBBER SHOULD MOLD IN PLACE SECURING THE GLASS. I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM DARIAN CURTIS AT HONDA CORPORATE THAT A DISTRICT PARTS AND SERVICE MANAGER WOULD BE OVERSEEING THE 3RD REPAIR. I PICKED UP MY CAR SHORTLY THEREAFTER AND HAVE HEARD NOTHING ELSE,NO EXPLANATION,NO RESOLUTION, NOTHING AT ALL. I HAVE SINCE TRADED IN THE VEHICLE FOR SOMETHING ELSE SINCE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND I AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING IT. THESE UNEXPLAINED INSTANCES COULD CAUSE HARM TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD.
I AM TAKING MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD SPORT TO HONDA DEALER (SOUTHBAY HONDA, MILPITAS, CA) TO COMPLETE "REPLACE BATTERY MGMT SENSOR" RECALL 17V-418 COMPLETION. MY CAR HAS STARTED SHOWING UNIQUE PROBLEM OF NOT STARTING ON FIRST TRY, SOME TIMES IT STARTS ON FIRST TRY, OTHER TIMES IT TAKES MORE THAN ONE TRY TO START. THIS IS FRUSTRATING & SCARY TO GET STRANDED. CAR IS LESS THAN 22K MILES (BOUGHT DEC. 2014). AFTER LOOKING AT INTERNET THIS IS COMMON PROBLEM & SHOULD BE CONSIDER RECALL OF "REPLACE STARTER". DEALER ARE QUOTING AROUND $1000 TO REPLACE STARTER, SHOULD BE COVERED AS IT'S DEFECTIVE HONDA PART. TO YOUR KNOWLEDGE THERE ARE MANY HONDA ACCORD 2013-2015 OWNERS WITH SIMILAR ISSUE. HERE IS ONE THREAD: HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/HONDA/ACCORD/STARTER-PROBLEMS.PHP
ACCELERATION HESITATION. I HAVE BOW OWNED THIS CAR ONE YEAR AND TODAY (MAY 23, 2018) WAS THE 7TH TIME THAT HESITATING WHILE LEAVING A STOP SIGN OR SIGNAL LIGHT, HAS HAPPENED. TWICE ITS CAUSE A VEHICLE TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES BEHIND ME.
THE CAR WOULD GIVE A HARD TIME STARTING ONCE A WEEK, THIS STARTED 3 WEEKS AGO, THEN LAST WEEK IT JUST STOPPED TURNING ON, AFTER TRYING COUPLE OF TIMES , I TURNED IT ON, DROVE TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WERE THEY TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY AND A NEW STARTER. THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT SINCE THE CAR PASSED THE 36,000MILES, IT HAD 42,000MILES. I NOTICED ANOTHER CAR SIMILAR TO MINE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AT THE DEALERSHIP, SO I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH THIS ISSUE AND FOUND OUT THAT HONDA KNEW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM HAPPENING QUIET OFTEN AND DID NOT ISSUE A RECALL AS WELL AS THEM HAVING A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT REGARDING THIS MATTER. I HAVE DONE ALL THE WORK AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP AND HAVE DOCUMENTS AND RECEIPTS IT COSTED ME ABOUT 840$$ WHICH IS A LOT OF MONEY FOR A RELATIVELY NEW CAR.
CVTRANSMISSION FAILED IN TRAFFIC LEAVING CAR STRANDED ON BUSY HWY.
CAR WOULDN'T START ALL ELECTRIC SYSTEMS DOWN. CAR SHUTDOWN NO LIGHTS NO ENGINES. NO POWER AT ALL.
LOW TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY, HOWEVER WHEN CHECKED TIRE PRESSURES ARE FINE - THIS OCCURED OVER THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNING THE CAR, FINALLY THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY RESOLVED THE ISSUE AND HAD INFLATED ALL TIRES TO 32 PSI AND RESET SENORS. HOWEVER CHECKING THE TIRE PRESSURE TODAY, (AT THE DEALERSHIP) ALL 4 TIRES WERE AT 21 PSI AND NO SENSOR LIGHT FOR LOW PRESSURE WAS ON. DURING THE FIRST THREE EPISODES OF LOW TIRE LIGHT - A FORMAL COMPLAINT WAS FILED WITH HONDA, THEY ASSURED US THAT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED, HOWEVER APPEARS TO STILL BE AN ISSUE, DRIVING ON 4 UNDERINFLATED TIRES IS ALSO A SERIOUS RISK (WE ONLY HAD THEM CHECKED BECAUSE OF THE CHANGE IN SEASONS FOR WINTER TO SPRING). WAS TOLD BY HONDA THE SENSOR ISSUE IS "USUALLY A DRIVER ISSUE, NOT A SENSOR ISSUE".
CAR BATTERY DIED 3 TIMES IN 2 MONTHS THE YEAR MAKE MODEL HAS RECALL FOR BATTERY SENSOR SHORT CAUSING BATTERY DRAIN/FAILURE AS WELL AS POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD WITH NEGATIVE TERMINAL. MY VEHICLE SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND A GRINDING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO UNIVERSITY HONDA OF FLORENCE (250 COX CREEK PKWY, FLORENCE, AL 35630 (256) 760-7400) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE STARTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND WAS AWAITING ON A RESPONSE FROM THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.
TOWARDS THE END OF 2017, I HAD MY HONDA ACCORD SERVICE AS A RESULT OF THE BATTERY DEFECT RECALL. AFTER SUCH REPAIR, MY VEHICLE STALLED ON A BUSY HIGHWAY BACK IN FEBRUARY 2018. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW AND IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 45,000 MILES THE HONDA DEALER STATED IT WAS THE ALTERNATOR AND CHARGED ME TO REPAIR IT . HOWEVER, ON 4/1/18 THE CAR STALLED ONCE AGAIN AND I THE ENGINE WOULD NOT START. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS ISSUE AND IT APPEARS THE TOO MANY 2015 HONDA ACCORDS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM FOLLOWING THE BATTERY DEFECT RECALL. THIS IS A SAFETY RISK, SINCE THE VEHICLE LOSES ALL POWER LEAVING ONE VULNERABLE TO BING HIT BY OTHER VEHICLES WHEN THE CAR STALLS. MY CAR PANEL/ SYSTEM DOES NOT GIVE ANY WARNING PRIOR TO SHUTTING DOWN ALL POWER WHILE THE CAR IS ON MOTION. ONCE THE CAR STALLS, ONE CAN NOT TURN THE ENGINE BACK ON. I TRULY BELIEVE THAT THIS HAS TO BE INVESTIGATED BEFORE SOME ONE IS KILLED AS A RESULT THAT F THIS DEFECT ON THE HONDA ACCORD.
I RECEIVED THE NOTICE OF THE RECALL FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR AND TOOK THE CAR IN AUGUST BUT THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE PART. NEXT MAINTENANCE IN NOVEMBER I REMINDED THEM OF THE RECALL ON THE BATTERY AND THEY GAVE ME THE TEMPORARY FIXING. SHORTLY AFTER THIS THE BATTERY STARTED TO FAIL. I WOULD HAVE MY CAR PARKED AND IT WOULDN'T TURN ON. THIS HAS BEEN MORE CONSTANT NOW. WENT BACK TO THE DEALER MARCH 7, 2018 AND I MENTIONED ABOUT THE BATTERY AND THEY TOLD ME THE BATTERY WAS FINE THAT NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH IT.ON THE THIRD DAY AFTER MY BATTERY DIED 2 TIMES AFTER HAVING IT OFF FOR LESS THEN 10 MINUTES. AND HAD TO JUMP START IT. I HAVE SEEN THAT MANY HAVE SAID THE SOLUTION IS TO BUY A NEW BATTERY BUT THE CAR IS JUST 2 YEARS SINCE I BOUGHT IT NEW AND MY MILEAGE IS NOT EVEN 40,000 MILES YET. HONDA SHOULD BE THE ONE TO FIX THIS.
WHEN THE CAR STARTS DRIVING FIRST THING IN THE MORNING ON COLD DAYS THERE THERE A BRIEF BUZZING SOUND COMING FROM THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE OF THE CAR. THIS IS MORE PRONOUNCED AND REGULAR WHEN TRACTION CONTROL COMES ON. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR THE FIRST 2 AND HALF YEARS BIT NOW IS IS QUITE COMMON.
THE HAND BREAK HAS COME LOOSE IT USES TO COME UP ONLY ONE CLICK BUT NOW IT GOES UP 6-7 CLICKS. CHANGED REST BREAK PADS BUT NO RESOLUTION. ALSO WHEN I ACTIVATE THE HAMSBREAK THE RIGHT SIDE GOES NOT SEEM TO ENGAGE
, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IT WAS PERFECTLY FINE BUT WHEN TIME CAME TO GET OFF I STOPED AT THE FIRST LIGHT, TRIED TO DRIVE OFF THEN THE CAR STARTED PULLING, TOOK OFF DRIVING THEN THE CAR JUST TOTALLY SHUT OFF NO TYPE OF WARNING THAT THERE MIGHT BE A PROBLEM AND ALSO NO DASH BOARD LIGHTS LITE UP TO NOTIFY ME THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM
FAULTY BRAKE CALIPERS: MY 2015 ACCORD 4DR WITH 42K MILES WAS RECENTLY AT THE HONDA DEALER HERE IN GREENWICH, CT. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPORTED THAT THE REAR BRAKES WERE "ALMOST METAL ON METAL" AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I REMINDED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT REAR BRAKES SHOULD NEVER WEAR OUR BEFORE FRONT BRAKES. THEY REPLIED THAT THIS IS "NORMAL IN NEWER CARS". I ASKED TO RETAIN THE PARTS FOR EXAMINATION. NO SURPRISE THAT THE PADS ARE WORN ABNORMALLY. ONLY ONE OF THE FOUR REAR PADS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED (SEE PHOTO), CLEARLY INDICATING A STICKING CALIPER. I WANTED TO NOTIFY NHTSA AS THIS MAY BE A SAFELY CONCERN, AND NOT JUST POOR CUSTOMER SERVICE.
REAR BRAKE WEAR- 2015 ACCORD 4DR. WE NEEDED TO HAVE THE CAR SERVICED AT 42K MILES BECAUSE THE ORIGINAL BATTERY DIED. DURING INSPECTION WE WERE TOLD THAT THE REAR BRAKES WERE "ALMOST METAL ON METAL". SERVICE MANAGER LIED AND TOLD MY WIFE THAT THIS WAS "NORMAL FOR NEWER CARS". BRAKE WEAR IS GENERALLY 70/30 FRONT TO REAR, NEVER REAR BRAKES FIRST. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, ONLY 1 OUT OF THE 4 REAR PADS WAS WORN DOWN TO 2MM, AND THE OTHER 3 WERE AT LEAST 4MM. THIS CLEARLY INDICATING A MECHANICAL PROBLEM OR FROZEN CALIPER. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN MY DEALER AND HONDA.
REAR TIRES WEAR UNEVENLY ON THE INSIDE, CAR HAD 14000 MILES AND HAD REPLACE THE TIRES DUE EXCESSIVE NOISE. SECOND SET OF TIRES WEARING THE SAME WAY. UNADJUSTABLE CAMBER ISSUE. SAFETY ISSUE, SUSPENSION FAILURE MAY OCCUR.
TAKATA RECALL - WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE SOUTHERN STATE PARKWAY, A LEVELED HIGHWAY, I VEERED TOWARDS THE RIGHT IN AN EFFORT TO AVOID A POTENTIAL ACCIDENT WITH ANOTHER CAR SPEEDING FROM BEHIND ME. CAR PASSED ON MY LEFT - ALL WAS OK. THEN AS I WENT FROM THE BREAK PEDDLE TO THE GAS PEDDLE, BOOM THEN DRIVER SIDE AND DRIVER SEAT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED ON MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD, THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO LOCKED, PULLING ME TOWARDS THE LEFT, ALL OF THIS WITHOUT COLLISION OR KNOWN IMPACT TO THE CAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START WITHOUT WARNING WHILE USING THE PUSH TO START FUNCTION. THE CONTACT ALSO HEARD AN ABNORMAL CRACKLING NOISE. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.
UPON BREAKING CAR ACCELERATED, HAPPENED ON TWO OCCASIONS, BROUGHT CAR TO HONDA AND THEY FOUND NO DEFECTS. HAPPENED AGAIN WITH MORE SEVERITY, INFORMED HONDA AND TO DATE THEY HAVE NOR CONTACTED ME REGARDING THIS SAME PROBLEM.
THE PLASTIC CASE OF THE BATTERY SENSOR MAY HAVE GAPS THAT ALLOW MOISTURE TO ENTER THE SENSOR. IF MOISTURE CONTAINING CONDUCTIVE SUBSTANCES (SUCH AS ROAD SALT) ENTERS THE BATTERY SENSOR, IT COULD CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND SUBSEQUENTLY, A FIRE.
BATTERY DIED SUDDENLY, WITHOUT WARNING. ON 1/1/2018, I DRIVE TO THE GAS STATION ON MY WAY TO THE AIRPORT. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND NOTICED THAT PUMP WAS OUT OF OF ORDER SO STARTED MY CAR AND DROVE TO ANOTHER PUMP WITHOUT ISSUE. I FILLED UP MY TANK, WHICH TOOK ABOUT 4 GALLONS OF GAS, THEN WHEN I TRIED SO START MY CAR IT WOULD NOT START. I HAVE PUSH BUTTON START AND ALL OF THE ELECTRONICS WORKED BUT THE IGNITION WOULD NOT TURN OVER. THE DASH BLINKED. I TRIED 3 MORE TIMES AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT VERY TIGHT AND THE CAR STILL WOULD NOT START. THIS LEFT ME STRANDED AT THE GAS STATION. I HAD TO CALL ROADSIDE RESCUE. WHEN THE GUY JUMPED MY BATTERY HE SAID MY BATTERY WAS SO LOW THAT WHEN I TURN MY CAR OFF NEXT TIME IT WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THIS IS AT 6AM IN THE MORNING ON A HOLIDAY, AND I'M SUPPOSED TO BE PARKING MY CAR FOR 5 DAYS ST THE AIRPORT. I HAD TO CANCEL MY FLIGHT AND FIND A PLACE TO BUY A NEW BATTERY THAT SAME DAY, WITHOUT HAVING TO TURN MY CAR OFF. THE BATTERY COST ALMOST $200. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW FROM DEALER SO IT HAD THE ORIGINAL BATTERY THAT CAME WITH THE CAR WITHIN. I ALSO HAVE ALL MAINTENANCE DONE AT DEALER, MOST RECENTLY TWO MONTHS PREVIOUS, WHERE ALL THINGS CHECKED WERE LISTED AS OK. THIS CAR WAS PURCHASED IN JULY 2015. THE BATTERY SHOULD NOT HAVE FAILED SO QUICKLY. THE CAR HAD 56,165 AT THE TIME OF BATTERY FAILURE. THERE WAS NO WARNING. THE CAR HAS NEVER NOT STARTED. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS. I KNOW ABOUT THE RECALL ON THE BATTERY SENSOR, AND WE RECEIVED THE TEMPORARY FIX AND WILL GET THE PERMANENT FIX DURING OUR NEXT MAINTENANCE, HOWEVER I FIND IT STRANGE THAT MY BATTERY FAILED IN BETWEEN. I'VE NEVER, SINCE I'VE OWNED A CAR, HAD TO REPLACE A CAR BATTERY IN JUST 2.5 YEARS OF USAGE.
FEB 25 2016 I HAD ACCIDENT AND CAR GOT TOTAL LOSS MY AIR BAG FAIL TO OPEN AND HAD HEAD INJURY
BATTERY HAS LEFT ME STRANDED 3+ TIMES. NOT TO MENTION THAT I HAVE TAKEN IN THE CAR A FEW TIMES DUE TO ALL THE RE-CALLS ITS HARD. BATTERY AND ELECTRONICA BLUE TOOTH HAS ITS ISSUES AS WELL. NOT KEEPING MY CONNECTION CLEAR AND WILL HAVE MY CALLS BECOME CHIPMUNKS CONNECTION AND LOUD NOISE ON THE OTHER END OF THE LINE MAKING IT DIFFICULT FOR BLUETOOTH DEVISE FUNCTION USABLE & THAT IS A SAFE ROAD HAZARD, PLEASE ADVISE [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB
DURING STAND STILL AND DRIVING, WHEN I STEP ON ACCELERATION PEDAL THE CAR OFTEN TIME HESITATES TO MOVE. TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT, I HAVE TO PRESS HARD ON ACCELERATION PEDAL, THEN SHE MOVES TOO FAST. IN AN ANOTHER WORD, I CAN'T CONTROL THE CAR SPEED IN THE WAY I WANT AT 60 PERCENT OF THE TIME.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE BATTERY DIED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TOWED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA OF FREEHOLD (4244 U.S. 9, FREEHOLD, NJ 07728, (732) 410-5508) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A DEAD CELL IN THE BATTERY. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED WITH A NEW BATTERY. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD AN OPEN RECALL REPAIRED FOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES RELATED TO THE BATTERY AND A NEW RECALL WAS ISSUED UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V418000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,935.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED, THE FRONT DRIVER'S AIR BAG INADVERTENTLY DEPLOYED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE CONTACT STATED THAT SMOKE ESCAPED FROM THE AIR BAG. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.
THE STARTER GRINDS AT STARTUP.
MY VEHICLE WAS RECALLED FOR DEFECTIVE IN BATTERY SENSORS?? DEALER MENTIONED IT WAS ON BACK ORDER AND NEVER CONTACTED US AGAIN
ON OCTOBER 23RD, 2017 I PRESSED ON A BRAKE PEDAL, THE CAR DID NOT STOP OR SLOW DOWN. I FRANTICALLY STARTED PRESSING IT A NUMBER OF TIMES AND AFTER ABOUT A 3RD TIME, AN INCH AWAY FROM A CAR IN FRONT OF ME, MY CAR FINALLY STOPPED. I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE TAMAROFF HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON A 45 MPH STREET CALLED ORCHARD LAKE.
ON WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 8TH MY WIFE WENT OUT TO START OUR 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH 38,531 MILES. THE CAR DID NOT START. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO UNIVERSITY HONDA. THE SERVICE ADVISOR CHECKED THE CAR OUT AND SAID THAT THE CAR BATTERY WAS DEAD. WE WERE REQUIRED TO PURCHASE A NEW BATTERY FOR $127.63. I CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA REQUESTING TO BE REIMBURSED THE $127.63. THEY OPENED A CASE #06448979. MY CAR IS 2,531 MILES OUTSIDE ITS WARRANTY. IT HAS A RECALL NOTICE FOR FAULTY BATTERY SENSORS. THE CAR WAS PURCHASED 7/31/15, SO THE BATTERY FAILED AFTER ONLY 27 MONTHS. THE NEW BATTERY THAT I PURCHASED FROM HONDA HAS A 100 MONTH WARRANTY WITH NO MILEAGE LIMIT. A REASONABLE PERSON WOULD EXPECT A NEW CAR BATTERY TO LAST LONGER THAN 27 MONTHS, ESPECIALLY SINCE WHEN HONDA SELLS THE BATTERY SEPARATELY FROM THE CAR YOU ARE GIVEN A 100 MONTH WARRANTY. SO EITHER THE BATTERY WAS FAULTY OR THE FAULTY BATTERY SENSORS CAUSED THE BATTERY TO FAIL PREMATURELY. TIA FROM AMERICAN HONDA STATED THAT THE BATTERY WAS BEYOND THE 36,000 MILE WARRANTY AND ALL SHE COULD DO IS GIVE ME 'HONDA DOLLARS' THAT I CAN SPEND ON HONDA PRODUCTS. SHE WOULD NOT LET ME TALK TO ANYONE ELSE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND TALKING TO MECHANICS, IT SEEMS THAT HONDA HAS SOLD CARS WITH FAULTY ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS THAT CAUSE BATTERIES TO FAIL PREMATURELY. I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO REIMBURSE ME FOR THE COSTS THAT I HAVE INCURRED AND RECALL THEIR FAULTY BATTERIES.
THE DRIVERS SEAT TRIM HAS FALLEN OFF NOW FOR THE 4TH TIME. THE LAST TIME I HAD IT FIXED IT LOOKED LIKE IT MIGHT STAY IN PLACE. I AM THE ONLY PERSON THAT DRIVES THE CAR AND DO NOT MOVE IT FROM THE POSITION IT IS IN. I BELIEVE IT IS REALLY THE SEAT THAT IS THE PROBLEM AND NO TRIM WILL EVER STAY PUT. IT IS A DEFECT BECAUSE OTHERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. VERY UPSET. I BELIEVE HONDA NEEDS TO BE RESPONSIBLE AND FIX IT FOR GOOD
I WAS INFORMED OF A RECALL AFFECTING THE BATTERY/CHARGING SYSTEM OF THE VEHICLE. THE MENTIONED ISSUE ALREADY CAUSED MY BATTERY TO FAIL AS WELL. WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR THE REPAIR THE BATTERY SENSOR WAS REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE. THE BATTERY WAS TESTED AND WAS NO GOOD. THIS IS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE FAILED BATTERY SENSING WHICH WAS CAUSING A CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM. I HAD TO PAY FOR $118.10 FOR THE BATTERY. I FEEL I SHOULD BE REIMBURSED FOR THE BATTERY. ALSO, I HAD ALREADY TAKEN THE CAR IN A FEW MONTHS BEFORE FOR THE CHARGING ISSUE. I WAS MADE TO FEEL LIKE AN IDIOT. THE RECALL WAS NOT OUT AT THE TIME.
'TAKATA RECALL'-ON JULY 12TH 2017 I WAS INVOLVED IN A VERY BAD COLLISION IN LANCASTER,CALIFORNIA ON 30TH STREET WEST AND AVE K AT AROUND 8:25AM.I WAS TRAVELING SOUTH BOUND ON 30TH AT 50-55MPH WHEN A WOMAN CAME OUT OF NOWHERE AND MADE A LEFT TURN IN FRONT OF ME,I TRIED TO TURN THE CAR TO KEEP FROM T BONING HER WHICH I DID, SO MY CAR HIT THE FRONT END OF HER HUGE 2003 RED LINCOLN MURCURY. MY AIRBAG DID DEPLOY AND LET OFF THIS AWFUL SMELL THAT I STILL REMEMBER TO THIS DAY,I PUT MY RIGHT ARM UP IN FRONT OF MY FACE TO KEEP IT FROM HITTING ME,DUE TO ME DOING THAT MY RIGHT ARM SUSTAINED BRUISING ALL THE WAY TO THE BONE AND MY STERNUM WAS FRACTURED.
OLDER PEOPLE HAVE A HIGH END HEARING LOSS. HENCE, THE DRIVER WHO HAS THE SIGNAL ON CANNOT HEAR IT AND IT MISLEADS ON-COMING AND FOLLOWING VEHICLES. IT SHOULD BE CHANGED TO A LOW PITCH WHICH PEOPLE WITH HEARING LOSS WILL BE ABLE TO HEAR. YES I KNOW THERE IS A FLASHING LIGHT ON THE DASH BUT IT IS NOT LIKE THE ONE ONE THAT VEHICLE HAS WHEN YOU MOVE OUT OF YOUR LANE OR DO NOT SLOW DOWN FOR A STOPPED VEHICLE. THOSE GIVE A FLASHING LIGHT BUT ALSO A LOUD SOUND. THE HIGH PITCH TURN SIGNAL SOUND IS NOT ONLY A SAFETY HAZARD BUT IT PROBABLY VIOLATES THE DISABILITY ACT. THERE ARE MANY PEOPLE COMPLAINING ON THE INTERNET. I FORGOT THE SIGNAL WAS ON AND ALMOST WAS HIT BY AN ON-COMING VEHICLE AT AN INTERSECTION WHO THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO TURN..
MY ISSUE IS I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WITHOUT ANY DISCLOSED INFORMATION, DID THEY SAY ANYTHING ABOUT MY VEHICLE BEING ON RECALL. ALSO I DROVE OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP TOLD THAT MY CAR PASSED THE INSPECTION BUT THEN TOLD ME I HAVE TO GO GET IT INSPECTED. MY VEHICLE FAILED THE INSPECTION AFTER I WAS TOLD THAT IT PASSED WHEN IT WAS AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE MONITOR CATALYST, MONITOR EVAP, MONITOR 02, NONE WE'RE READY FOR AN INSPECTION. I WAS THEN TOLD THAT I HAVE TO KEEP DRIVING THE CAR TO PUT SOME MILES ON IT. NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE THAT'S WHY I AM REACHING OUT.
WENT TO LEAVE FROM OUR GARAGE AND TRIED TO START THE CAR AND IT WOULD NOT CRANK, RADIO COME ON BUT THEN EVERYTHING BEGIN TO FLICKER BUT WOULD NOT START, HOWEVER THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TOME. I TOOK VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER 2 WKS AGO AND THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING THEY SEE IS GOOD...BUT IT'S APPARENT SOMETHING IS WRONG.
THE 12-VOLT BATTERY SENSOR CAUSED MY BATTERY TO OVERCHARGE AND SPILL OUT MOST OF THE BATTERY ACID AND CORRODED THE CABLES. THE SENSOR FAILED TO ALERT ME OF THE BATTERY'S STATE OF CHARGE AND AND NOW I HAVE A DEAD BATTERY. HONDA OF MORGAN HILL WILL NOT REPLACE MY BATTERY EVEN THOUGH IT WAS CASED BY THE FAULTY SENSOR. THEY ARE HAVING ME PICK UP MY CAR WITH A DEAD BATTERY AND WILL NOT REPLACE IT UNTIL I PAY FOR A NEW BATTERY. YES, MY CAR IS PASSED THE 36K MILES BUT THE BATTERY AND CAR IS ONLY 2 YEARS OLD.
PRIOR TO TODAY, I HAD AN INSTANCE WHERE ALL MY PANEL LIGHTS CAME ON AND MY CAR FAILED TO START. AFTER DOING RESEARCH I LEARNED IT COULD BE RELATED TO A RECALL. I CALLED THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO SCHEDULE THE RECALL REPAIR AND WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE NOT YET AVAILABLE AND THEY COULD PROVIDE A 'TEMPORARY FIX' IF NEEDED UNTIL THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. I ELECTED NOT TO HAVE A TEMPORARY FIX AND WAIT FOR THE PARTS TO BE SAFE. WHEN GOING IN TODAY (2 MONTHS LATER) FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE BALANCE I ASKED ABOUT THE RECALL AND IF THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE. I WAS TOLD THEY WERE SO I GAVE PERMISSION FOR THE RECALL REPAIR TO BE COMPLETED WHILE THE HAD MY CAR FOR THE OTHER SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE. I PICKED UP MY CAR AT 5:45 AFTER BEING TOLD THE REPAIRS WERE COMPLETE. I LEFT THE DEALER AND WENT TO A RESTAURANT AND WHEN I GOT BACK TO MY CAR AND TRIED TO START IT, ALL THE PANEL LIGHTS CAME ON AGAIN AND IT FAILED TO START LEAVING ME STRANDED WITH MY 8 YEAR OLD SON 20 MINUTES FROM MY HOME. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FOR ASSISTANCE AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WAS CLOSED. I WAS TOLD MY A SALESMAN TO BRING MY CAR IN TOMORROW MORNING. I EXPRESSED MY GRAVE CONCERN WITH THE CONDITION OF THE CAR CONSIDERING THE REPAIRS WERE SUPPOSED TO BE DONE AND THE POSSIBILITY OF IT TURNING OFF OR NOT STARTING. I DID NOT WANT TO CHANCE DRIVING THE CAR AS I DID NOT FEEL IT WAS SAFE. WHILE WAITING FOR A RIDE, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND DISPLAY CONTINUED TO BLINK AND TURN ON AND OFF WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO START THE CAR. WHEN MY RIDE ARRIVES, WE JUMPED OFF MY BATTERY TO SEE IF IT WOULD START. IT STARTED BUT WAS WEAK. I DROVE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP (5 MILES) WHILE BEING FOLLOWED BY MY FRIEND. I LEFT THE CAR AND WAS GIVEN A LOANER IN HOPES THE REPAIRS CAN BE SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETED. I WORRY THAT THE REPAIR WON'T BE PROPERLY FIXED (THEY DON'T HAVE THE PART)AND MY SAFETY AND MY SON'S SAFETY WILL BE COMPROMISED.
I HAD A RECALLED DATED AUGUST 2017 TO GET THE VEHICLE TO A NEARBY DEALER PROBLEM INDICATED ON THE LETTER: A BATTERY SENSOR CASE MOUNTED ON TOP THE 12V BATTERY WHICH MAY HAVE GAPS THAT COULD ALLOW FOR MOISTURE TO ENTER THE SENSOR. I TOOK IT TO A DEALER OF HONDA OF NEW ROCHELLE IN NY. I WAS TOLD THE PART IS NOT AVAILABLE AND THAT AMERICAN HONDA WILL REISSUE A LETTER. CONSIDERING THE RISK INVOLVED IN DAILY DRIVING THE CAR, HOW SOON WILL THE ISSUE BE FIXED? I AM SCARED DRIVING THIS CAR AND FREELY SO. WHAT FOLLOW-UP INFORMATION HAS AMERICAN HONDA? KINDLY RESPOND. MY NUMMBER -5168089496; EMAIL -LIVIBONI@YAHOO.COM

IN 2016 HOWLING, HUMMING NOISE STARTED IN REAR WHEEL WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 40-55 MPH ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY. NOISE WOULD INCREASE WITH SPEED. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED FAULTY WHEEL BEARING AND REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY ON FEB 13, 2017 AT 22,600 MILES. AFTER RETURNING HOME FROM VACATION IN FL, THE NOISE STARTED AGAIN. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS DIAGNOSED AGAIN WITH A FAULTY WHEEL BEARING AT 26,690 MILES. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE FOR THE 2014-2015 MODEL YEARS FOR MY VEHICLE. MY WARRANTY WILL BE UP IN NOVEMBER 2017 AND I AM CONCERNED THAT I MAY CONTINUE TO HAVE RECURRING ISSUES AND EXPENSES DUE TO THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA CUSTOMER AND WANT TO KNOW WHAT HONDA CAN DO TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE AND MILEAGE SHOULD NOT BE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE.
I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS CAR IN APRIL 2017 AND NOTICED WHENEVER IT RAINS, THE INTERIOR STINKS LIKE MOLD. I CHECKED FOR LEAKS AND THE RUBBER TRIM AROUND THE DOORS AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM. SINCE THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS DETECTED BY SMELL, THERE IS NO WAY FOR ME TO PROVE THIS TO A DEALER.
I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS CAR IN APRIL AND NOTICED THAT THIS CAR SHAKES WHEN BREAKING FROM A HIGHER SPEED - NORMALLY ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS A TBS FOR IT AND NOTHING THAT THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT.
WHEN STARTING CAR INITIALLY IN THE MORNINGS AND DRIVING CAR IN REVERSE WITH ONLY BRAKING AND NOT APPLYING ANY GAS, AFTER THE FIRST 10 FEET IN REVERSE THE ENGINE WILL REV UP BY ITSELF AND THEN STABILIZE, OR ENGINE WILL GULP AIR WITH ENGINE JERKING, OR ENGINE WILL REV UP VERY HIGH WITH THE FINAL LAST SOUND OF CLASHING METAL BETWEEN THE ENGINE/TRANSMISSION AND THE ENGINE DYING ON THE SPOT. THESE PROBLEMS ONLY OCCUR WITH THE INITIAL STARTING OF THE CAR AND ONLY IN REVERSE. THE CAR FUNCTIONS NORMALLY AFTER THE EVENTS DESCRIBED ABOVE. THE CAR IS ALWAYS GARAGED. THE ENGINE BEHAVIOR DESCRIBED IS INTERMITTENT AND UNPREDICATABLE. CLASHING METAL AND STOPPING OF ENGINE LAST OCCURRED JULY 26, 2017.

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A HONDA ACCORD COUPE 2015 WITH LESS THAN 20K MILES AND HAD 2 OCCURANCES WHERE THE CAR WOULDN'T START. THE WARNING SIGN SAID FCW SYSTEM FAILED AND WOULDN'T START. DID SEVERAL THINGS, CALLED FOR HELP AT THE DEALER AND AFTER 20 MINUTES LATER, IT RANDOMLY STARTED. THE SECOND TIME MY GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING IT TO THE GROCERY STORE AND WHEN SHE WAS GETTING READY LEAVE, IT DID THE SAME THING TO HER. LUCKILY HER WORK WAS ACROSS THE STREET AND CAME BACK AFTER HER BRAKE 2 HOURS LATER AND RANDOMLY STARTED. THIS CAR WAS NEVER LISTED IN A WRECK, HAS A 1 YEAR OLD NEW BATTERY WHICH WAS REPLACE LAST YEAR EVEN THOUGH IT'S A 2015 AND I'M REPORTING THIS AUGUST 2017. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON REMEDYING THIS SITUATION. THANK YOU!
THE SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE IN THE 2015 HONDA CRV. THE DRIVER SIDE IN PARTICULAR IS VERY FIRM AND HITS PRESSURE POINTS IN THE LEGS, NO MATTER HOW THE SEAT IS ADJUSTED. DRIVING THIS VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN 1/2 AN HOUR CAUSED PAIN IN MY SCIATIC NERVE, WITH THE PAIN RADIATING DOWN MY LEG AND UP INTO MY LOW BACK. I COULD NOT GET COMFORTABLE ON A 4 HOUR DRIVE, DESPITE TRYING EVERY CONFIGURATION OF AVAILABLE SEATING ADJUSTMENTS. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE A WEEK AND A HALF AGO AND HAVE 30 DAYS TO RETURN THIS CAR TO CARMAX. I PLAN TO DO SO BECAUSE IT IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE.
CONDENSER FIN DEFECTIVE ADVISED THAT THE CONDENSER FIN WAS DAMAGED FROM A ROCK THE SEAT BELT LOCKS UP, THE ALTERNATOR IS CAUSING THE BATTERY NOT TO CHARGE, THE PAINT IS CHIPPING
2015 ACCORD SPORT WITH 26K MILES, HAVE HAD MY TIRED ROTATED TWICE, BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. CUPPING OF THE TIRES MAKE FOR LOTS OF ROAD NOISE AND VIBRATION. CALLED THE TIRE COMPANY---NOT A TIRE ISSUE, IT IS A HONDA ISSUE---NOT SURE HOW THEY WILL FIX IT, BUT NEW TIRES ROTATED BASED ON HONDA'S RECOMMENDATION WILL CONTINUE CUPPING AND RUIN THE NEXT SET. GREAT COMPANY NEEDS TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND STEP UP TO OFFER A FAIR SOLUTION.
CAR HAD ABOUT 9000 MILES ON IT, WOULDN'T START AFTER DRIVING IT FOR 25 MINUTES FROM HOME. AUTOMATIC SHIFT SEEMS TO BE LOCKED. 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND, LONG WAIT FOR TOW TRUCK TO DEALER. NO SERVICE PEOPLE THERE. I WAS GIVEN A SHEET OF PAPER SHOWING A RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN DISTRIBUTED YET FOR 2013-2016 ACCORDS. THE CASE FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR MOUNTED AT THE TOP OF THE 12V BATTERY MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY MANUFACTURED WITH GAPS THAT COULD ALLOW FOR MOISTURE ENTRY, IF MOISTURE CONTAINING ROAD SALT, OR OTHER CONDUCTIVE SUBSTANCE,ENTERS THE BATTERY SENSOR, IT COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND SUBSEQUENTLY, A FIRE. REFRAIN FROM CALLING TECH LINE FOR UPDATES. THE FACT IS I AM A WOMAN AND I BUY A NEW OR LEASE A NEW CAR EVERY THREE OR SO YEARS SO THAT I WON'T BE LEFT SOMEWHERE STRANDED AND IN DANGER. ANYTIME A WOMAN IS HELPLESS IN A NON WORKING CAR, DANGER IS THE FIRST ISSUE. SORRY, BUT WE DO HAVE TO RECOGNIZE THE WORLD IS DIFFERENT FOR MEN AND WOMEN. HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 17-057 THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE ACCORDING TO THE BULLETIN FOR 2013-2016
CAR INTERMITTENLY MSKES A CLUNK/CLICK NOISE UNDER DRIVER SIDE OF VEHICLE.
WHILE DRIVING ON A RURAL HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH AND SEEING A POSTED REDUCED SPEED LIMIT SIGN OF 45 MPH AHEAD, I STARTED SLOWING THE CAR BY DECREASING PRESSURE THE GAS PEDAL(NEVER REMOVING MY FOOT). AS I REACHED 45 MPH I INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL AND FELT THE CAR BRAKING. I REMOVED PRESSURE FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO COAST. I STEPPED(INCREASED PRESSURE) ON THE GAS PEDAL AGAIN AND I FELT THE CAR BRAKING AGAIN. I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND DOUBLED CHECKED MY FOOT POSITION AND I WAS USING THE GAS PEDAL. I MOVED MY FOOT TO THE BRAKE AND FELT THE BRAKES WERE WORKING. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO AN OPEN AREA BESIDE THE HIGHWAY AND STOP THE CAR SAFELY. AFTER STOPPING I NOTICE THE ENGINE OIL AND SERVICE LIGHTS ON AND ENGINE WAS OFF BUT POWER WAS ON. I SHUT THE POWER OFF. AFTER A MINUTE I RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT RUNS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 95 F.
I WAS GOING HOME ON 6/9/17 ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY 52-N AT APPROX 60 MPH. THE CAR QUIT RUNNING, THE REAR WHEELS LOCK ,AND I AM SLIDING SIDEWAYS. THE CAR JUST DIED. THERE WAS A TANKER TRUCK BEHIND ME, WHO HAD TO LOCK DOWN HIS BRAKES TO AVOID HITTING ME WHILE I HAVE MY DAUGHTER WHO IS UNDER 12 YEARS OF AGE IN THE CAR WITH ME! I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID HAVE IT TOWED TO THEM! ON 6/10/17, I WAS TOLD THAT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE IT AND HAVE THE TECH DRIVE CAR HOME AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. ON 6/12/17, I WAS TOLD THAT THEY RESET WARNING SENSOR AND THAT A DIODE WAS BAD. THEY WANTED TECH TO DRIVE CAR AGAIN AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. ON 6/13/17, I WAS TOLD THAT A SENSOR WAS BAD AND THEY WANTED TECH TO DRIVE CAR AGAIN TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. THE MORNING OF 6/14/17, I TOLD THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE STEERING HOSE NEEDED REPLACING, AND THEY WANTED A TECH TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN! THEY ALSO STATED THEY WERE CALLING THE TECH LINE IN CALIFORNIA TO GET FURTHER INFO. THE AFTERNOON OF 6/14/17, I WAS TOLD THAT THE TECH LINE SUGGESTED CHANGING THE FUEL PUMP AND THAT SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD TAKE 2 DAYS TO GET THE PART AND 1.5 - 2 HOURS TO INSTALL. I SAID OKAY THE MORNING OF 6/15/17, THEY CALLED ME AND SAID PART WAS IN AND INSTALLED, BUT THEY WANTED TECH TO DRIVE AGAIN TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I SAID OKAY. THE MORNING OF 6/16/17, I WAS CALLED AND TOLD CAR WAS READY FOR PICK UP. I PICKED CAR UP THE AFTERNOON OF 6/16/17 AND DROVE HOME. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A TERRIBLE SMELL. IT ALSO ACTED FUNNY BETWEEN 3RD AND 4TH GEAR. I WENT TO REMOVE A BAG FROM TRUNK AND THE TRUNK SMELLS LIKE A DEAD ANIMAL NOW. SAT. AFTERNOON, I AM GOING HOME AND THE CAR DOES THE SAME EXACT THING BUT ONLY WORSE NOW SINCE I HAVE BOTH KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME! SOMETHING I NOTICED. THE TECH ONLY DROVE IT 8.5 MILES A DAY (60 MILES TOTAL). 6/19 GOT CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN!
I HAVE A HONDA ACCORD COUPE. THE BAR AROUND THE SEAT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE HAS BROKEN FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN JUST OVER TWO YEARS. IT HAS BEEN FIXED THREE TIMES BUT THE DEALER STATED WE WERE ON OUR OWN THE FOURTH TIME. ONE TIME WHEN MY HUSBAND TOOK THE CAR FOR THE DEALER TO LOOK AT FOR REPAIR, THEY FIXED THE CAR AS ANOTHER PERSON DID NOT SHOW WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IT DOES FINE IF THE SEAT IS NOT MOVED BUT BREAKS WHEN YOU PUT THE SEAT UP AND DOWN OR UP AND BACK. THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING.
BOTH REAR TIRES UNEVENLY CUPPING ON THE INSIDE . CAR HAS LESS THAN 25K MILES. THE REST OF THE OUTSIDE OF THE TIRE SHOWS LITTLE TO NO WEAR ON IT. CAR IS SHAKING AND MAKING LOUD THUMPING SOUNDS AS IT DRIVES. UNSAFE ISSUE , FACTORY DEFECT WITH UNADJUSTABLE CAMBER/TOE SETTINGS. NOT A ROTATION OR ALIGNMENT ISSUE. LOTS OF OTHER CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY TURNED TO THE LEFT AND ALMOST COLLIDED WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD INADVERTENTLY MOVE TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CULVER CITY HONDA (9055 W WASHINGTON BLVD, CULVER CITY, CA (310) 815-3888), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO AIRPORT MARINA HONDA (5850 W CENTINELA AVE. LOS ANGELES, CA 90045 (310) 649-2440). THE CONTACT WENT ON A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DRIVE WITH A TECHNICIAN AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOOK AND MOVED TO THE LEFT AND RIGHT. THE CONTACT WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN SHAFT WAS LOOSE, THE FRONT SUSPENSION FELT ROUGH, AND THERE WAS A KNOCKING SOUND COMING FROM THE STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,000. *JS
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GOADY HONDA IN ALHAMDIA, CALIFORNIA WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALTERNATOR WAS FAULTY. THE ALTERNATOR AND BATTERY WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 400.
2015 HONDA ACCORD HAS PASSENGER SIDE REAR BRAKE NOISE PROBLEM. LUTE RILEY DEALERSHIP SAID THIS IS DUE TO BRAKE PADS WEAR OUT. HOWEVER, IT IS VERY RARE THAT A NEW CAR WITH LESS TWO AND HALF YEARS OLD AND MILEAGE LESS THAN 35K HAS REAR BRAKE WEAR-OUT. MY PREVIOUS TOYOTA CAMRY NEVER HAD REAR BRAKE PAD OUT FOR MORE THAN 12 YEARS AND > 155K. THE HONDA REAR BRAKE PAD PROBLEM IS DUE TO HONDA'S REAR BRAKE DESIGN/FABRICATION/MATERIAL PROBLEM. THUS HONDA SHOULD TAKE ALL THE RESPONSIBILITY.
WITHIN 5 SECONDS AFTER WE GOT INTO THE CAR AND CLOSED THE DOORS ON THE 2 DOOR COUPE THE BACK GLASS EXPLODED. LUCKY I WAS NOT DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT SOUNDED LIKE A BOMB AND GLASS FLEW ALL OVER THE CAR. I HAD NOT EVEN STARTED THE ENGINE. IT WAS IN MY PARKING SPACE BEHIND MY HOME. NO ONE WAS NEAR AND THE WEATHER WAS ABOUT 40 DEGREES AND CLEAR.
AIR CONDITION WHEN SET ON HIGH TEMPERATURE (78+), AFTER 10 MINUTES,IT STARTS GENERATING COOL AIR. IN WINTER IT'S NOT WORKING AS PER EXPECTATION. ALWAYS EXPERIENCED WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. *BF
MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD LX KEY STARTED CHIPPING OFF IN THE LOCK CYLINDER AND STOP TURNING AFTER 45,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THE LOCK CYLINDER STOP TURNING WITH MY KEY IN THE CYLINDER. THE HONDA TURNED OFF ON THE INTERSTATE AND I COULD NOT TURN THE STEERING WHEEL WITH THIS OCCURRED. THE LOCK CYLINDER, KEY RE-PROGRAMMED TO MATCH THE NEW LOCK CYLINDER COST MY $660 AND WAS NOT COVERED BY MY EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS NEEDS TO BE ISSUED AS A RECALL IMMEDIATELY. I ALSO CONFIRMED THAT SEVEN (7) OTHER HONDA OWNERS AT MY JOB WITH KEYS EXPERIENCED THE SAME LOCK CYLINDER PROBLEM ON THE AVERAGE BEFORE 30,000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THEY HAD TO GET THE LOCK CYLINDER REPLACED TOO.
OWNER WAS DRIVING THE 2015 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID ON THE FREEWAY AT SPEED LIMIT (60MPH) AND SUDDENLY THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR WAS PUT ON A "FAIL SAFE MODE" OR A DRIVING SPEED OF NO MORE THAN 40MPH. LUCKILY THE OWNER WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO A SAFE AREA, CALLED HONDA FOR ASSISTANCE AND THE CAR WAS TOWED TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP. A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK WAS PERFORMED AND AN UPDATE OF A VEHICLE SOFTWARE WAS MADE BASED ON HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 15-057. I THINK HONDA SHOULD RECALL ALL HONDA ACCORD HYBRID THAT HAVE THESE ISSUES IMMEDIATELY AND HAVE THE VEHICLE SOFTWARE UPDATED BECAUSE OF POSSIBLE VEHICLE FAILURE AND INJURY TO CAR OCCUPANTS AS BEING ON A FAIL SAFE DRIVING MODE COULD HAPPEN ANYTIME AND COULD PUT THE CAR OCCUPANTS IN A VERY DANGEROUS AND UNSAFE SITUATION..
MY TPMS (TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM) SIGNALS FALSE ALARMS. MOST RECENTLY, 4-5-17, 60 MILES AFTER PROPER RESET OF THE TPMS, THE WARNING LIGHT LIT UP AGAIN. ALL FOUR TIRES PROVED CORRECTLY INFLATED TO 37.5PSI (HOT). FOR FALSE TPMS ALARMS THE MANUAL INSTRUCTS THE OWNER TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR, UNDER WARRANTY. ON 4-7-5 MORGAN HILL HONDA CLAIMED (A) THAT MY COMPLAINT IS COMMON AND (B) THAT THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO FIX. "HONDA IS VERY SORRY." THE INHERENT DANGER OF A SPURIOUS WARNING LIGHT IS OBVIOUS: CONSIDER A STRANGE LIGHT AT 70MPH IN THE DIAMOND LANE AT NIGHT: IF THE DRIVER CANNOT RECOGNIZE THE LIGHT, PANIC MAY ENSUE. AND IF THE DRIVER DOES RECOGNIZE THE LIGHT, WHAT THEN? CROSS FOUR LANES OF TRAFFIC TO FIND A SAFE PLACE TO EXIT IN THE DARK IN ORDER TO VISUALLY INSPECT BLACK LOW-PROFILE ("HIGH PERFORMANCE") TIRES FOR INFLATION? WHAT CAN GO WRONG FOR A WOMAN PULLING OFF THE HIGHWAY INTO A STRANGE NEIGHBORHOOD TO INSPECT HER TIRES? THEORETICALLY "MIKE" AT MORGAN HILL HONDA (408-500-3000) DOCUMENTED MY CASE TODAY, 4-7-17. HE PROVIDED NO PAPER RECEIPT, AS HE DID NOTHING OTHER THAT SPIN A YARN ABOUT TEMPERATURE VARIATIONS AS A PROBABLY CAUSE. (GARAGED CARS EXPERIENCE ENORMOUS TEMP VARIATIONS EVERY MORNING, WINTER AND SUMMER.) UNLESS NHTSA IS BEING DRAINED AS PART OF THE "SWAMP", IT SHOULD INVESTIGATE THIS COMPLAINT VIGOROUSLY.
WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY CAR DOWN A ROAD THAT WAS PAVED NO FASTER THAN 35MPH WITHOUT ANY OTHER VEHICLES IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME OR EVEN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. IT MADE THE LOUDEST SCARIEST NOISE I'VE EVER HEARD! WHEN I CALLED HONDA TO RECEIVE HELP I WAS ENTIRELY IGNORED AND BLOWN OFF. THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME IT HAPPENS AND IS A COMMON ISSUE, WELL IF THAT'S THE CASE WHY WASN'T I INFORMED OF THAT WHEN I BOUGHT MY CAR?
LONG STORY SHORT, I TOOK THE 2015 HONDA ACCORD FOR A TEST DRIVE AND IT SEEMED FINE. THE NEXT DAY AFTER DRIVING QUITE A BIT MY LOWER BACK STARTED BURNING. I COULDN'T ADJUST THE SEAT TO MAKE IT COMFORTABLE OR STOP THE BACK PAIN. IT FELT LIKE IT CUT OFF THE CIRCULATION IN MY LEGS AFTER JUST DRIVING 30 MILES. I COULDN'T TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY PAID FOR ME TO GET A SEAT WEDGE FOR MORE CUSHION. THAT JUST PUT ME HIGHER IN THE SEAT AND THE LUMBAR AT MY TAILBONE. I HAVE TO DRIVE A LOT FOR MY WORK AND IT'S KILLING MY LOWER BACK AND NECK. I'VE TRIED NUMEROUS CUSHIONS, PADS AND BACK SUPPORTS BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO MAKE THIS SEAT WORK. I CAN'T DRIVE IT WITHOUT PAIN AND AM AT A LOSS ON WHAT TO DO OTHER THAN TAKE A MASSIVE LOSS.
DUE TO HONDA USING SOY BASED WIRING, RODENTS CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRING IN OUR ENGINE AREA AND IN THE UNDERSIDE OF OUR HOOD AREA. REQUIRED REPAIR OF OVER $3000 AT FOLSOM LAKE HONDA. HONDA KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM... WHY NO RECALL? THEY SHOULD PAY FOR REPAIRS. THEY ARE SELLING RODENT PROOF TAPE AT DEALER OR SUGGEST PUTTING DRYER SHEETS IN OUR ENGINE AREA??!,, I BELIEVE CLASS ACTION SUIT HAS BEGUN IN CALIFORNIA. WE WOULD LIKE TO BE INVOLVED.
I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD LX. I STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE STEREO APPROX NOVEMBER 2016. WHEN I WOULD TOGGLE BETWEEN THE RADIO PRE-SETS I WOULD LOOSE EVERYTHING, NOW SOUND NO STATIONS. IT IS NOT TILL AFTER I SHUT MY CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES THAT IT WILL RESET. I HAVE TAKEN VIDEO AND AN ACTUAL SERVICE ADVISOR AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS SEEN WHAT IT IS DOING. SINCE THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY IT WAS DOING THIS, THEY REPLACED THE STEREO WITH, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A NEW ONE, BUT IT WAS A RE-MANUFACTURED ONE I FOUND OUT AFTER I WENT TO CONNECT MY PHONE BACK TO MY CAR AND A BUNCH OF NAMES POPPED UP IN THE PHONE AREA. I WAS TOLD HONDA WILL ONLY AUTHORIZE A RE MANUFACTURED ONE. THE STEREO THAT WAS INSTALLED NOW IT DOING THE SAME THING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS MY IPHONE AND I NEEDED TO GET A NEW PHONE. MY PHONE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL RADIO STATIONS. BLUETOOTH, ITUNES AND PANDORA YES MY PHONE AFFECTS THOSE BUT NOT THE RADIO. AND IF IT WAS MY PHONE THEN HOW CAN I MAKE CALLS WHEN IT ALL WAS NOT WORKING?
HONDA ACCORD ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED-BRAKES,STEERING,FLASHER LIGHTS, POWER, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED AS I WAS MAKING A TURN ONTO A VERY BUSY STREET. IF THIS EVENT HAPPENED ON A BUSY STREET WITH A POWER FAILED SYSTEM, I MAY HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TO ME AND OTHER CARS DUE TO LACK OF CONTROL.

TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER ON OCTOBER 18, 2016 PER LETTER FROM HONDA TO HAVE PRODUCT UPDATE DTC P1890 PERFORMED. THIS WAS AN UPDATE TO THE PCM SOFTWARE FOR CVT TRANSMISSION. EVER SINCE THIS TIME THE MILEAGE HAS DROPPED SIGNIFICANTLY. I WAS GETTING 33MPG AROUND THE CITY. IT HAS DROPPED TO 27MPG. HIGHWAY MILEAGE HAS ALSO DROPPED FROM 37MPG TO 34MPG. CAR FEELS AS THOUGHT IT IS IN TOO LOW OF A GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING - A CHANGE FROM BEFORE THE SOFTWARE UPDATE. TOOK CAR BACK TO TWO DIFFERENT HONDA DEALERS. THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG NOR HAVE THEY HEARD ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RPMS SURGED AT LOW SPEEDS. WHEN REVERSING OR DRIVING ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, THE VEHICLE WOULD SPEED UP. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THE ISSUE THE DAY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100...UPDATED 03/01/17 *BF *CN
ON MARCH 20, 2015, I LEASED A HONDA ACCORD FOR 3 YEARS FROM THE HONDA OF MENTOR AUTOMOBILE DEALERSHIP. IMMEDIATELY AFTER TAKING POSSESSION OF THE CAR, I NOTICED THE CAR HAD A VERY SIGNIFICANT VIBRATION PROBLEM. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THE VIBRATION. THE SERVICE PERSONNEL I COMPLAINED TO ACTED LIKE THE CAR HAD NO VIBRATION PROBLEM AT ALL --- INTIMATING I WAS IMAGINING THINGS. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR A FEW DAYS MORE, I NOTICED THAT WHEN STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT AND SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL, THE VIBRATION LESSENED CONSIDERABLY. MY CAR CAME EQUIPPED WITH A "CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT)", SO I ASSUME THE VIBRATION IS MOST LIKELY RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION (I HAVE NEVER BEEN AN AUTO MECHANIC). I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 22 MONTHS NOW AND, ALTHOUGH THE VIBRATION PROBLEM HAS LESSENED SOMEWHAT, IT IS CAUSING ME CONSIDERABLE CONSTERNATION BECAUSE I HAVE DECIDED TO PURCHASE THE CAR OUTRIGHT WHEN MY 3-YEAR-LEASE EXPIRES. I AM WORRIED THAT SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASE THE CAR OUTRIGHT I WILL BE FACED WITH A HORRENDOUS BILL TO REPAIR/REPLACE THE CVT OR WHATEVER IT IS THAT IS CAUSING THE VIBRATION. QUESTION: IS THE NHTSA MAINTAINING A LOG OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING HONDA"S "VIBRATION COMPLAINTS" SIMILAR TO MINE? I AM 82 AND WITH MY MEAGER PENSION I CERTAINLY DO NOT WANT TO BE HIT WITH A HORRENDOUS REPAIR BILL IF THE VIBRATION PROBLEM IS DUE TO THE HONDA'S INCOMPETENCE. *TR
PURCHASED 2 HONDA ACCORD EX-L V6'S IN DECEMBER OF 2014. JUST 1 WEEK AGO ONE OF THE BATTERIES SUDDENLY DIED AND EVENTUALLY SHOWED "CHECK CHARGE SYSTEM" ON THE DISPLAY. HONDA DETERMINED THAT THE BATTERY WAS REALLY LOW AND REPLACED IT. FAST FOWARD JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS AND THE OTHER ONE STARTS TO EXHIBIT THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS. TAKING IT TO HONDA AGAIN TODAY BUT ASSUME THEY WILL REPLACE THE BATTERY AS WELL. SEEMS ODD THAT THE BATTERY WOULD DIE ON BOTH VEHICLES LESS THAN 2 YEARS AFTER PURCHASE. CARS ARE DRIVEN DAILY FOR ATLEAST A 20 MINUTE COMMUTE EACH WAY PLUS OTHER TRIPS/ERRANDS/ETC. VERY UNACCEPTABLE AND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE DATING BACK TO PREVIOUS MODELS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE HAD AN ABNORMAL EXHAUST ODOR AFTER THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE REPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 4,000.
THE TRUNK LID WILL NOT STAY IN THE OPEN POSITION WHEN PARKED ON AN INCLINE. NO ISSUES WITH LID CLOSING HAVE OCCURRED WHILE PARKED ON LEVEL GROUND. BUT, WHEN PARKED ON A SLOPING DRIVEWAY, TRUNK LID WILL DROP TO THE CLOSED POSITION WITHOUT WARNING HITTING ANYONE ACCESSING ITEMS IN THE TRUNK. INCIDENTS OF THE TRUNK LID HITTING SOMEONE IN THE HEAD OR BACK HAVE OCCURRED. WHILE IT HAS NOT HAPPENED SO FAR, IF TRUNK LID WERE TO FALL THE ENTIRE DISTANCE AND HIT SOMEONE'S HANDS, THERE IS THE POTENTIAL FOR MAJOR INJURY.
PAGE 1 OF 2 - I PURCHASED MY 2015 HONDA ACCORD COUPE EX-L WITH 2.4L CVT IN JUNE OF 2015 NEW WITH MAYBE 5 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. I STARTED HAVING ISSUES JUST MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE FROM BRANDON HONDA. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED WHEN PULLING OUT OF MY OFFICE COMPLEX ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY WHEN THE CAR DECIDED TO JUST SHUT OFF CAUSING THE STEERING COLUMN TO ALSO SEIZE WHILE THE ODOMETER FLASHED "FCW FAILURE" ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHER INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS ON STEADY. SINCE THAT OCCURRENCE IT SEEMS AS IF I'VE HAD NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH THE VEHICLE. I HAVE ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TAKEN THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPEATED TRANSMISSION/FRONT END ISSUES ' SUCH AS JERKING BETWEEN RPMS, DOWN 'SHIFTING' FOR NO REASON CAUSING RPMS TO JUST DROP INSTEAD OF HOLDING WHEN RELEASING MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR AND WHILE TRAVELING AT HIGHWAY/INTERSTATE SPEEDS OF 55+ MPH, ETC. THE LAST 3 TIMES INCLUDED AN ADDITIONAL ISSUE WHERE THE GEARSHIFT WOULD GO FROM (D) DRIVE AND INTO (R) REVERSE WHILE CONTINUING TO GO IN A FORWARD MOTION WITH BACK UP CAMERA DISPLAYING ON DASH SCREEN AND (R) DISPLAYING ON THE ODOMETER WHERE THE GEAR IS DISPLAYED. THE DISCOVERY OF THIS SAFETY HAZARD TOOK PLACE FOR THE FIRST TIME ON AN INTERSTATE WHILE TRAVELING 65+ MPH. THE PASSENGER AT THE TIME WAS REACHING TO GRAB THEIR BEVERAGE FROM CUP HOLDER CLOSEST TO THE GEAR SHIFTER WHEN IT WAS HIT/TAPPED IN THE UPWARD MOTION ENGAGING THE TRANSMISSION INTO (R) REVERSE. IT TOOK ME A MINUTE TO GRASP WHAT HAPPENED BECAUSE WHILE I'M LOOKING FORWARD INTO THE DIRECTION I'M DRIVING, I GLANCE DOWN AT THE ODOMETER AND NOTICE (R) IN PLACE OF THE (D) WHERE THE CURRENT GEAR ENGAGED WOULD BE INDICATED. THEN OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY EYE I NOTICE THE CAMERA WAS ON DISPLAY BUT NOT REALIZING THE CAMERA WAS FROM THE REAR AND COULD SEE THE VEHICLES DIRECTLY BEHIND ME ON THE INTERSTATE. *TR
PAGE 2 OF 2 - I HAVE SINCE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO BRANDON HONDA AND BASICALLY WAS ADVISED BY A SERVICE ADVISOR, MANAGER AND AMERICA HONDA CO THAT MY VEHICLE IS 'OPERATING BY DESIGN', 'MY ISSUES COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED ON SEVERAL TEST DRIVE ATTEMPTS' AND 'IT'S A SAFETY FEATURE' TALKING ABOUT WHEN THE VEHICLE CAN ENGAGE INTO REVERSE. AS OF TODAY I HAVE NO RESOLUTION TO THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND FRONT END CONCERNS BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF BRANDON HONDA. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY A SERVICE TECHNICIAN THAT 'THIS WAS A SAFETY FEATURE' AND 'IT'S OPERATING AS DESIGNED' WHICH BOTH ARE NOT SOLUTIONS TO RESOLVE A MECHANICAL/SAFETY DEFECT IN THE VEHICLE OR DESIGN. I HAVE GIVEN BRANDON HONDA MULTIPLE TSBS TO REVIEW EACH VISIT AND KEPT HAVING THEM REJECTED. ONE OF THOSE TSBS MENTIONS HAVING TO DROP THE TRANSMISSION TO REPLACE A MODULE INSIDE OF THE CASING. OBVIOUSLY THE DEALERSHIP IS DOING WHATEVER THEY CAN TO AVOID HAVING TO PERFORM THIS REPAIR AND KEEP DRAGGING THEIR FEET TO ACCOMPLISH ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. THE ORIGINAL HONDA CASE # [XXX] WAS OPENED AND THEN CLOSED VIA VOICEMAIL PRIOR TO ME RECEIVING MY VEHICLE BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP TO DETERMINE IF THE ISSUE WAS RESOLVED, YET TO MY SATISFACTION. WHAT WILL IT TAKE FOR HONDA TO ACT AND MAKE MY VEHICLE, EXPERIENCE WHOLE????? I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE WITH HARD EARNED $ NOT COUNTERFEIT, BROKEN OR LIFE THREATENING. NOTE: I HAVE VIDEO OF THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE MOTION WHILE CONTINUING FORWARD, ALONG WITH SEVERAL TSBS, WORK ORDERS, PICTURES AND DOCUMENTS TO SUPPORT MY CASE. THIS IS MY ONLY MEANS OF TRANSPORTATION AND I'M DRIVING OVER THE HOWARD FRANKLIN BRIDGE (15,899') EVERY DAY IN MY COMMUTE TO AND FROM MY OFFICE. FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR THE VIDEO, PICTURES OR DOCUMENTS NEEDED TO SUPPORT MY CASE. RESPECTFULLY, A VERY UNSATISFIED BRANDON HONDA CUSTOMER INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
THE TRUNK ON MY CAR AUTOMATICALLY OPENS SO I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND CLOSE THE TRUNK. I HAVE NOTICED THAT USUALLY THIS HAPPENS WHEN I AM LEAVING MY HOUSE SO I BELIEVE THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE AUTOMATIC TRUNK OPENING FEATURE ON THIS CAR. I BACK OUT OF THE DRIVE WAY AND AFTER DRIVING FOR 1/2 A BLOCK OR 1 BLOCK THE TRUNK OPEN LIGHT COMES ON. THEN I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE TRUNK OR THE TRUNK LID WILL OPEN FULLY AND BLOCK MY VISIBILITY OUT OF MY REAR WINDOW. THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND ON A CITY STREET WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I AM NOT SURE IF STARTING THE CAR CAUSES THIS PROBLEM OR PUTTING THE CAR IN GEAR OR AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKING THE CAR DOORS BUT THERE IS SOMETHING IN THAT SERIES OF ACTIONS THAT CAUSES THE TRUNK TO OPEN. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME I LEAVE MY HOUSE BUT IT HAPPENS SPORADICALLY. I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH THIS PROBLEM AND THERE ARE CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON HONDA CARS SO I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE HAVING THE PROBLEM. *TR
BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW BACK IN JULY 2015. ON 10/16/2016 I TOOK THE CAR ON I-66 AND AT ABOUT 80 MPL THE CAR STARTED JERKING AND KNOCKING. ENGINE RUNS FINE AT IDLE BUT KNOCKS EVEN AT A SPEED < 20 MPH. HAD THE CAR TOWED TO NEAREST HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAITING TO HEAR FROM THEM. IT HAS ABOUT 11K MILES ON IT. CAN SEE A SAFETY RECALL ON 2015 HONDA ACCORD WITH SIMILAR SYMPTOMS.
SUNROOF EXPLODED ON 2015 HONDA ACCORD AT 9:30 AM ON 9/19/16 WHILE TRAVELING ON HIGHWAY ONE MILE BEFORE EXITING. SOUNDED AS IF A SEMI TIRE EXPLODED NEAR BY. IT WAS NOT AN IMPACT BREAK. IT EXPLODED OUTWARD NOT INWARD. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES CLOSE ENOUGH TO SHOOT A ROCK AND IT WOULD HAVE HIT WINDSHIELD. I NOW HAVE ON MY ONCE PERFECT UNBLEMISHED CAR SCRATCHES ON TOP AND ON TRUNK. VEHICLE IS 1.5 YEARS OLD, 18,000 MILES AND HONDA HAS INFORMED ME THEY WILL NOT COVER UNDER THE WARRANTY DESPITE THAT IT IS OBVIOUSLY A KNOWN DEFECT. I HAVE IMAGES ON PHONE BUT HAVING A HARD TIME ATTACHING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARALLEL PARK THE VEHICLE, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT EXTRA EFFORT WAS NEEDED TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MOTOR OVERHEATED AND CAUSED THE POWER STEERING FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.
WHEN MAKING A LANE CHANGE AT A SPEED OF ~60MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. THE CAR LOST CONTROL AND JERKED TOWARDS THE LEFT. IT ZIGZAGGED BETWEEN THE LEFT AND MIDDLE LANE AND HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE TWICE. ALTHOUGH DAMAGE TO OUR HONDA ACCORD WAS MAINLY COSMETIC, THE ENGINE WAS DEAD BEFORE/AFTER THE COLLISION. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN NEW BRIGHTON, MN, AND THE LAW ENFORCEMENT CASE # IS 16507355. WE'VE REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO AMERICAN HONDA (CASE NUMBER 04824446) ON JULY 11TH, 2016, BUT DIDN'T RECEIVE PROPER ATTENTION. AFTER A SIMPLE CHECK AND TEST DRIVE, THEY CLAIMED THERE WAS NO ISSUE/DEFECT WITH THE VEHICLE. CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA SEVERAL TIMES BUT HAVEN'T RECEIVE ANY FOLLOW-UP YET.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 75 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND STOPPED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, RESTARTED, AND DRIVEN HOME. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,927.
HEADLIGHTS ON LOW BEAM HAVE A SHARP TOP SIDE CUTOFF THAT MAKES SEEING THE ROAD AND SIGNS AND OBJECTS DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT. ALSO WHEN GOING DOWN HILL AND IF THE ROAD RISES SHARPLY, YOU CANNOT SEE VERY FAR AHEAD, I ALMOST HIT SOMEONE CROSSING A STREET BECAUSE OF THIS. ALSO, THE HEATER/AC CONTROLS ARE NEEDLESSLY COMPLICATED, AS ARE THE RADIO CONTROLS. WHERE ONE KNOB COULD CONTROL THE ON/OFF AND FAN SPEED, THIS CAR HAS THREE SEPARATE SMALL BUTTONS WHERE YOU MUST TAKE YOURS EYES OFF THE ROAD TO FIND. THE SAME APPLIES TO CHANGING THE TEMPERATURE; THERE ARE TWO UP/DOWN SEPARATE BUTTONS, WHERE ONE SIMPLE KNOB WOULD WORK. THE RADIO, TOO HAS TOO MANY NEEDLESS BUTTONS TO PUSH. IF TEXTING IS DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING, THEY HAVE MADE THIS CAR DANGEROUS TO CHANGE ALMOST ANY CONTROL. THERE SHOULD BE THE RULE THAT CONTROLS BE KEPT AS SIMPLE AS POSSIBLE. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE LEXUS EVEN HAS A SEPARATE MOUSE YOU MUST USE TO CHANGE SETTINGS! IT HAS GOTTEN OUT OF CONTROL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND WAS ABLE TO BE RESTARTED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,800. UPDATED 09/08/16*LJ *CN
TAKATA RECALL. HONDA HAS IDENTIFIED A CURRENT SAFETY PROBLEM WITH MY VEHICLE, YET CANNOT CORRECT THIS FLAW IN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME. IT MAY TAKES MONTHS BEFORE THE REPAIR IS MADE. THEIR CURRENT WRITTEN ADVICE IS TO "...AVOID HAVING A PASSENGER SIT IN THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SEAT UNTIL THE RECALL REPAIR HAS BEEN PERFORMED." HOW IS A FAMILY OF FOUR EXPECTED TO DO THIS WITH A FAMILY SEDAN SEATING FOUR? WE HAVE NO PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION AVAILABLE IN MY COMMUNITY. SHALL I ALWAYS LEAVE A MEMBER OF MY FAMILY BEHIND THEN? NEVER LEAVE HOME? IF HONDA CANNOT PERFORM THE RECALL REPAIRS IN A REASONABLE PERIOD OF TIME, THEY SHOULD PROVIDE RENTAL VEHICLES FOR THEIR CUSTOMERS. THIS IS REASONABLE GIVEN THE SAFETY CONCERN.
OBVIOUS STEERING PROBLEMS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN BREAKING. HONDA SAYS THEY CAN CORRECT THE ROTOR PROBLEMS WITH A BREAK JOB FOR $209.00. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 16000 MILES ON IT. THERE HAVE BEEN HUNDREDS OF ROTOR PROBLEM COMPLAINTS.
ON JULY 9, 2016, WE WERE TRAVELING SOUTH BOUND ON INTERSTATE I-75 RIGHT OUTSIDE OF CHATTANOOGA, TENNESSEE. WE HAD ONLY TRAVELED 4 OR 5 MILES WHEN WE HEARD A HORRENDOUS NOISE WHICH CAME FROM UNDERNEATH THE CAR. IT WAS ALL MY HUSBAND COULD TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE CAR UNTIL WE GOT OFF THE INTERSTATE. WHILE HE WAS STEERING IT OFF THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD, I SAW THE REMAINS OF THE MICHELIN PRIMACY MXV4 215/55R215 RIGHT REAR TIRE GO SAILING PAST THE CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE. THESE TIRES HAD 12,619 MILES ON THEM WHEN THIS BLOW-OUT OCCURRED. THERE WAS NO DEBRIS ON THE ROAD. THIS TIRE SIMPLY EXPLODED!
CAR FAILED TO START BECAUSE BRAKE PEDAL REFUSED TO DEPRESS SLIGHTLY AND CLOSE ITS PART OF THE STARTER CIRCUIT. THAT FAILURE-TO-DEPRESS RENDERED THE DASHBOARD PUSH-BUTTON INOPERABLE. HONDA DEALER CLAIMED THAT BRAKE PEDAL USE DURING PARKING HAD OVER-PRESSURIZED THE BRAKE PEDAL CYLINDER, WHICH WOULD GRADUALLY BLEED OFF. THAT BLEED OFF TOOK ANYWHERE FROM 5 MINUTES TO 2 HOURS, IN 3 SEPARATE INSTANCES. THIS PROBLEM RENDERS THIS $30,030 CAR USELESS FOR TAKING A PREGNANT WIFE TO THE HOSPITAL OR FOR A MYRIAD OF OTHER HAVE-TO-START-THE-CAR-NOW REASONS.
WHEN THE HEADLIGHTS ARE TURNED ON, BOTH LENS COVERS SHOW A THICK ROUND CIRCLE DISTORTING THE BEAM PROJECTION.. HONDA CLAIMS THIS HAPPENS ON ALL THE ACCORDS AND REFUSES TO DO FIX THE PROBLEM UNDER THE WARRANTY. THEY SAID IF THEY REPLACED THE LIGHTS IT WOULD JUST HAPPEN AGAIN. THEY SAID ITS DUST BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THE CIRCLE IS ETCHED, EITHER WAY THE LIGHT APPEARS DISTORTED
ON FRIDAY MAY 6, 2016 WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 4, DRIVER SIDE WINDOW EXPLODED INWARD HITTING ME WITH GLASS AND DISTRIBUTING GLASS THROUGHOUT ENTIRE INSIDE OF CAR, FRONT AND BACK. VERY LOUD EXPLOSION AND ALL GLASS CAME INSIDE CAR. THERE WERE NO OTHER CARS BESIDE ME OR IN FRONT OF ME AT THE TIME. I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHILE DOING 70 MPH. HONDA SERVICE SANFORD FLORIDA SAID THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH THEIR WINDOWS DOING THIS, HOWEVER, WHEN I GO ON LINE I SEE MANY ENTRIES ON THE INTERNET OUTLINING THIS SAME IDENTICAL ISSUE, PLUS THERE ARE LAW SUITS THAT HAVE BEEN FILED AGAINST HONDA DUE TO THIS ISSUE. HONDA SERVICE SANFORD CLEANED ALL OF THE GLASS FROM WITHIN THE INTERIOR OF CAR WITHOUT TAKING PICTURES. I WILL TAKE PICTUES OF THE INSIDE OF DOOR ONCE THEY REMOVE PANELS. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED TO ENSURE THAT THAT IS THERE IS A DEFECT IN THE GLASS THAT ITS REPLACED BEFORE SOMEONE LOOSES CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLE AND CAUSES INJURY OR DEATH TO OTHER.
VEHICLE DOES NOT DECELERATE WHEN GOING GOING DOWN HILL OR DRIVING IN CITY CITY TRAFFIC OR ON A CITY STREET, HIGHWAY AND FREEWAY. ON 4 MAY 2016, TESTED DROVE THE VEHICLE WITH AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE MR. TOM ZUMIEDA.. MR. ZUMIEDA STATED HE FOUND THE VEHICLE TO BE WORKING AS DESIGNED AND AT FACTORY SPECS. HE DID VERIFY MY COMPLAINT AND ADVISED AND DEMONSTRATED HOW TO USE CRUISE CONTROL WHEN APPLICABLE TO CHANGE THE SHIFT PATTERN TO HELP THE DOWN SHIFT PROCESS WHEN SHOWING DOWN AND FOOT OF THE GAS PEDAL.
THE SEATS, IN PARTICULAR THE HEAD RESTRAINTS (HEADRESTS), ARE OF A FAULTY DESIGN IN THAT THEY ARE TILTED TOO FAR FORWARD FOR ANY KIND OF COMFORT AND ARE NOT ADJUSTABLE. ONLY IF ONE DRIVES WHILE IN A SEMI-RECLINED POSITION IS THE HEADREST TOLERABLE. COMPARED TO A SAFER, MORE VERTICAL DRIVING POSITION, THIS SEMI-RECLINED (APPROX 25 DEGREES FROM VERTICAL) DRIVING POSITION HINDERS ONE'S ALERTNESS AND ABILITY TO SEE AND REACT TO ALL TRAFFIC SITUATIONS; THEREFORE THIS LACK OF HEADREST TILT OR FORE/AFT ADJUSTMENT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR THOSE PEOPLE NOT IDEALLY FITTING THE SEAT AS DESIGNED. I HAVE CONFIRMED THAT MY CAR IS AS IT WAS DESIGNED AND BECAUSE I BOUGHT IT NEW, I KNOW IT HAS NOT BEEN ALTERED AT ALL. THIS TYPE OF MALADJUSTMENT IS NOT READILY RECOGNIZABLE IN A BRIEF TEST DRIVE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE AND JERKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN INSTALLED A SNAPSHOT TO RECORD THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE CVT TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,000.
I HAD TWO TIRES BLOW IN LESS THEN A MONTH. THEY'RE MICHELIN TIRES. WAS TOLD BY HONDA I RAN OVER SOMETHING BUT THERE WAS NO PUNCTURE AT ALL IN MY TIRE. IT WAS A PERFECT BLOW. THE LIGHT LITERALLY CAME ON A TWO SECONDS LATER WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IT BLEW. I NEARLY WRECKED AND WAS KILLED. THE SECOND SECOND TIME I WAS ON THE THE ROAD MAYBE A MINUTE AND THE LIGHT CAME ON. CAME RIGHT HOME AND CALLED HONDA. I REFUSED TO DRIVE MY CAR DOWN TO THEM BC OF WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME. I KNOW THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND I WANT MY $230.00 BACK FOR THE ONE TIRE I REPLACED AND ALL NEW TIRES. THIS IS NOT A SAFE CAR RIGHT NOW. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE TOO. I HAD A HONDA BEFORE THIS CAR AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES LIKE I'M HAVING NOW.
WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR IT STALLS AND HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING AND DRIVING. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS INVOLVING THE SHORT BOX AND IT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR IF THE OLD LEAKS IT CAN CATCH ON FIRE. THE RECALL IS PRINTED ON THE INTERNET. I WILL EMAIL IT TO YOU LATER AS I DO NAT HAVE IT WITH ME. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY MONTH AND MANY TIMES EVERY MONTH. THEY WILL NOT FIX IT AND THEY WILL NOT CALL ME BACK. I WANT A NEW CAR UNDER THE LEMON LAW. PLEASE HELP. OTHERS NEED TO KNOW THERE IS A DANGER HERE BUT THIS IS TOP SECRET.
ENGINE MISFIRES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH THE TACHOMETER SURGING 1,000 RPM'S WITH EACH MISFIRE. YOU CANNOT MAINTAIN YOUR SPEED AND THEREFORE ARE NOT ABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. TOOK IT TO A DEALER WHO STATED SOMEONE ELSE HAD RECENTLY BEEN IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBELM ON A TEST DRIVE. THEY RESET THE COMPUTER TO FACTORY SETTINGS, BUT DIDN'T HEAR BACK YET FROM THE OWNER IF IT RESOLVED THE ISSUE. THEY DIDN'T RESET MY CAR'S COMPUTER, HOWEVER. MY PROBLEM APPEARS TO MATCH THAT OF NHTSA ID NUMBER 10838521.
I BOUGHT A NEW HONDA ACCORD ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO. I NOTICED AFTER DRIVING IT A MONTH OR MORE THAT EVERY LONG ONCE IN A WHILE IT WAS SHOWING ME A DEFECT KNOWN AS "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION". I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND AFTER THEY EXAMINED IT, PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER MACHINE AND TEST DROVE IT A FEW MILES, THEY FOUND IT TO BE PERFECT, NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I TOOK IT BACK AND CONTINUED DRIVING IT THINKING THAT PERHAPS I DID SOMETHING THAT CAUSED IT.AS I CONTINUED ON WITH IT, I PULLED INTO MY HANDICAP SPACE AT MY PARKING LOT. FRONT END UP TO A CONCRETE BUNKER WITH THE HANDICAP SIGN STANDING TALL IN FRONT. I WAS ABOUT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT THE KEY OFF, WHEN SUDDENLY WHILE MY FEET WERE OFF THE PEDALS THE CAR ZOOMED UP TO 40 MPH,I TURNED THE WHEEL LEFT TO TRY AND AVOID THE SIGN AFTER IT HIT THE BUNKER AND AS IT SPED INTO THE NEXT PARKING LANE I BRAKED AND SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL.LUCKILY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC IN THE SECOND LANE OR I WOULD HAVE KILLED SOMEBODY AS WELL AS MYSELF.I TOOK IT TO TWO MORE DEALERS WITH A DAMAGED PASSENGER FENDER AND THEY ALL SAID AFTER LOOKING AND TESTING AGAIN THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THE LAST DEALER BROUGHT A HONDA EXPERT MECHANIC IN FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND HE TOO SAID NOTHING'S WRONG. WITHOUT EVIDENCE THEY CAN DO NOTHING FOR ME.IF WE CAN'T FIND THE TROUBLE YOU SAY IS THERE, WE CAN'T ACCOMODATE YOU. I SAID, SO YOUR SENDING ME HOME NOW TO GET KILLED?SORRY BUT THERE'S NO PROOF. I CALLED HONDA MANUFACTURER AND THEY WOULD DO NOTHING.
WHILE OVERTAKING A LARGE TRUCK (SEMI), IN THE FAST LANE OF A FOUR LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FLASHED A WARNING AND AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED HEAVY BRAKING AS MY VEHICLE WAS EVEN WITH THE REAR OF THE SEMI TRAILER. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO NEARLY REAR-END MY CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR, AND SEEMS TO BE MORE FREQUENT LATELY. I AM NERVOUS ABOUT USING THE ACC WHEN APPROACHING OR PASSING A LARGE SEMI TRACTOR TRAILER. I HAVE SEEN OTHER COMMENTS REGARDING THE SAME SITUATION POSTED ON THE INTERNET. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.
I AM CURRENTLY LEASING A 2015 ACCORD. I TOOK MY CAR TO WAL-MART TO HAVE TIRES ROTATED AND WAS INFORMED THEY COULD NOT ROTATE DUE TO MY REAR TIRES CUPPING. I TOOK IT TO HONDA CAR SERVICE AND WAS INFORMED MY REAR TIRES WERE CUPPING AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY. MY ALIGNMENT WASN'T BAD. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD ROTATE THEM AND BALANCE AND DO A NEW ALIGNMENT. THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WOULD BE LOUD DUE TO PUTTING THE CUPPING TIRES IN FRONT. I HAVE LEARNED OTHER PEOPLE WITH HIGH MILE HONDA ACCORD 2015 ARE HAVING SAME ISSUE WHERE THE CHAMBER IS OFF. THE ONLY WAY CURRENTLY I CAN GET MY TO STOP SOUNDING LIKE A TRACTOR TRAILER IS TO BUY NEW TIRES HOWEVER WITH THE CHAMBER BEING OFF IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN AND THE NEW TIRES WILL CUP TOO. I AM GOING TO CONTACT HONDA AGAIN AND SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO HOWEVER I HEARD HONDA IS NOT AGREEING THAT CAMBER IS OFF.
THIS VEHICLE HAS NO DASHBOARD INDICATOR TO INFORM YOU WHEN THE WASHER FLUID IS LOW. THIS MAY SOUND LIKE A SMALL THING, HOWEVER, THE POINT WHEN YOU RUN OUT WITHOUT WARNING IS WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD. THIS HAPPENED TO ME ON THE HIGHWAY THIS WINTER WITH A LOT OF SALTY SPRAY COMING OFF THE ROAD. THE RESULT WAS A STREAKY MESS THAT I COULD BARELY SEE THROUGH. FORTUNATELY, I CARRY A GALLON OF FLUID WITH ME SO I STOPPED AND FILLED IT ON THE SPOT. ACCORDING TO THE OWNERS MANUAL, THE INDICATOR IS ONLY FOUND ON CANADIAN MODELS.
WHEN YOU PRESSURE ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO POWER THE VEHICLE (LIKE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR CHANGING LANES IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR STALLS AND PUT YOU AT RISK OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. IT HAPPENS SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR DRIVING 55 MPH AND TRYING TO CHANGE LANES. DOES NOT MATTER IF THE CAR IS WARM OR COLD, BUT OCCURS LESS WHEN COLD.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM ALL FOUR TIRES. THE FAILURE OCCURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A TIRE ROTATION AND ALIGNMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED AND WORSENED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 500.
PURCHASED CAR IN MAY OF 2015. WENT ON A 10 HOUR TRIP AFTER OWNING 2 WEEKS, AFTER A FEW HOURS IT BECAME OBVIOUS THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO ATTAIN A COMFORTABLE DRIVING POSITION. SEATS PULL BACK AND NECK, LEGS GO TO SLEEP. UPON ARRIVING AT OUR DESTINATION BOTH DRIVERS HAD HEADACHE AND SORE BACK AND LEGS. RECENTLY HAD CAR IN SHOP FOR MINOR BODY SHOP REPAIRS AND WAS PROVIDED A RENTAL CAR, DODGE CHALLENGER, WHAT A RELIEF ! GREAT SEATS. HAVE HAD THE CAR BACK NOW FOR 3 DAYS AND IMMEDIATELY FELT BACK DISCOMFORT SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING GETTING RID OF THIS CAR AFTER EIGHT MONTHS OF MISERY! MAJOR DISAPPOINTMENT!
ENGINE MISFIRES AT 50-60 MPH WITH THE TACHOMETER SURGING FROM 1400 RPM TO 2500 RPM WITH EACH MISFIRE. YOU CANNOT MAINTAIN YOUR SPEED AND THEREFORE ARE NOT ABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT HONDA HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS ISSUE FOR SOME TIME BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT YET.
THE FIRST PROBLEM OCCURRED OCTOBER 22ND, 2015. I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AND I WENT TO CHANGE THE VOLUME (UP AND DOWN) ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT WAS NOT REGISTERING TO THE CAR. I THEN TRIED CHANGING THE STATION WITH THE LEFT AND RIGHT BUTTONS, AND NOTHING CHANGED. I PROCEEDED TO TRY USING THE TOUCHSCREEN AND I WOULD PRESS FIRMLY AND THE STATIONS WOULD NOT CHANGE. I WOULD HAVE TO STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON SEVERAL TIMES, THEN IT WOULD RANDOMLY WORK AGAIN. SOMETIMES IT WOULD NOT WORK TILL THE NEXT DAY. I TOOK MY CAR IN, SHOWED THEM THE VIDEO(S), AND THEY SAID THEY REBOOTED/RESTARTED/UPDATED THE FIRMWARE OR THE 'SYSTEM' AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO JUST COME IN. MY CAR IS CURRENT BACK IN THE SHOP, AND NOW I HAVE SEVEN VIDEOS DOCUMENTED OF THIS HAPPENING, ALL WITH THE SAME ISSUE RECURRING, ON DECEMBER 2ND, 2015, DECEMBER 15TH, 2015, JANUARY 17TH, 2016, AND JANUARY 21ST, 2016. I CAN SEND ALL VIDEOS TO AN EMAIL BUT IT WILL NOT LET ME UPLOAD IT ON THE WEBSITE. PLEASE NOTE, EVERY TIME THIS SITUATION HAS HAPPENED, YOU CAN SEE IN THE VIDEOS, I AM DRIVING AND/OR STATIONED. MORNING, NIGHT, TURNING, DRIVING FORWARD, AND REVERSING EVEN. I CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS AND/OR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND I COULD NOT FIND ANY. I HONESTLY DO NOT FEEL SAFE SINCE THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR WITH UNDER 9K MILES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING ABOVE 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A LOUD BANGING NOISE FROM THE FRONT AND REAR SUSPENSIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,500.
I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AT THE END OF DECEMBER 2015 WITH 100 MILES ON IT. BY THE END OF JUNE, I NOTICED WHEN I WOULD BRAKE I WOULD FEEL VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS WOULD HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET, ANY MILEAGE OVER 55. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE ROTORS NEED TO BE RESURFACED. THIS OCCURRED AGAIN TOWARDS THE END OF JANUARY 2016. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER ON FEBRUARY 5, 2016 AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE ROTORS WOULD NEED TO BE RESURFACED AGAIN. I WAS ALSO ADVISED THAT HONDA WOULD ONLY PAY FOR ONE OF THESE PROCEDURES AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE OTHER. I ASKED THE SALESMAN IF THIS WAS AN FREQUENT OCCURRENCE WITH HONDA? WERE THE ROTORS OR BRAKES INEXPENSIVE? HE ASKED THAT MOST LIKELY WAS NOT THE CASE BECAUSE THERE WERE A LOT OF HONDAS ON THE ROAD. THIS WASN'T A JUSTIFIABLE ANSWER FOR ME SO I ADVISED HIM THAT I WOULD DO MY OWN RESEARCH AND REPORT THIS ISSUE IF NECESSARY.
WITH APPROXIMATELY 4600 MILES VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. SEVERAL ERROR MESSAGES SHOWED UP: ANTI LOCKING BRAKE PROBLEM, ACC PROBLEM AND BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEMS. HONDA TOWED TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT. LOW BATTERY WAS DIAGNOSED AND DEALER INSTALLED NEW BATTERY.
THE 2015 HONDA ACCORD DRIVER AND SHOTGUN-PASSENGER SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE, ESPECIALLY THE LACK OF LUMBAR SUPPORT AND THE PRESENCE OF TERRIBLY ANGLED/DESIGNED HEADRESTS. AFTER THE DRIVING THE CAR FOR NO MORE THAN 45 MINUTES, YOU WILL FIND THAT: 1. YOUR LEFT LEG IS SLEEPING 2. YOUR NECK AND BACK ARE ACHING 3. YOUR HEAD IS ANGLED FORWARD IN AN ABNORMAL FASHION. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. SEE FURTHER COMPLAINTS AT: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/ACCORD/2015/ACCESSORIES-INTERIOR/EXTREMELY_UNCOMFORTABLE_SEATS.SHTML

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE AND DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE PEDAL DEPRESSED IN EXCESS INDEPENDENTLY. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000. UPDATED 02/10/16*LJ UPDATED 02/25/16.*JB
I PURCHASED A NEW 2015 HONDA ACCORD TOURING FROM PAT PECK HONDA ON DEC. 1, 2015. THE CAR WHEN TEST DRIVEN VIBRATED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AS THE CAR HAD BEEN MANUFACTURED IN APRIL OF 2015, I ASSUMED THAT THE TIRES WERE A LITTLE FLAT SPOTTED. I WAS TOLD THAT THE TIRES WERE A LITTLE BIT "OUT OF BALANCE" AND THE DEALER BALANCED THE TIRES, TEST DROVE IT AND RETURNED IT TO ME AS ROADWORTHY. I TOOK THE CAR BACK 3 TIMES AND EACH TIME THE DEALER REPRESENTED TO ME THAT THE PROBLEM WAS TIRE BALANCE AND THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. THEY EVEN CLAIMED THAT THE TIRES WERE REPLACED. I AM CONVINCED THAT THAT IS A LIE. I TOOK THE CAR TO AN INDEPENDENT TIRE DEALER THIS MORNING AND HE EXAMINED THE TIRES AND SHOWED ME ON HIS BALANCE MACHINE THAT THE TIRES ARE OUT OF ROUND. I AM COMPLAINING BECAUSE I DO NOT CONSIDER THESE TIRES AS ROADWORTHY AND THE DEALER IS REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING CONSTRUCTIVELY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE TIRES ARE GOODYEAR ASSURANCE FUEL MAX TIRES MANUFACTURED 16/2015
WITH 800 MILES ON THE VEHICLE, IT STALLED AT 65 MPH. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBLEM. I TOLD THEM I DID NOT WANT THE CAR BACK UNTIL THE PROBLEM WAS FIXED. AFTER 10 DAYS, WE RELUCTANTLY TOOK THE CAR BACK. THE DEALER SAID THEY REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO HONDA, BUT I REALLY DON'T KNOW IF THEY DID. THEY SAID "DRIVER ERROR". IN LATE NOVEMBER, WE RECEIVED A SAFETY RECALL LETTER SAYING OUR CAR MIGHT STALL AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WE HAD THE SOFTWARE UPDATED, THE 4 DAYS LATER THE CAR STALLED AGAIN. THANKFULLY IN A PARKING LOT. IT TOOK 10 MINUTES TO GET IT STARTED. RIGHT AWAY, WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, REMOVED OUR LICENSE PLATES, AND INFORMED THE SERVICE MANAGER WE WOULD NOT DRIVE IT AGAIN. HE SAIS IT WAS "DRIVER ERROR". THE NEXT WEEK WE TRADED THE CAR FOR A NEW FORD FUSION. IT COST US SEVERAL THOUSAND DOLLARS TO DO THIS, BUT WE SAID IT WASN'T WORTH THE CHANCE THAT IT WOULD STALL AGAIN. THE DEALER AND MAYBE HONDA DID NOT STEP UP TO THE PLATE ON THIS MATTER. THEY PUT IT ALL ON ME, THE CONSUMER. THANKS FOR LISTENING.
SCIATIC NERVE PINCHING SEVERELY IN RIGHT LOWER BACK AFTER TWO MONTHS. HIT DEER WITH CAR, TOYOTA RAV 4 RENTAL CAR, PROBLEM WENT AWAY. NOW, CAR BACK, TWO WEEKS, PROBLEM RETURNING. KEEPS GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, BOTH TIMES. WORRIED BACK WILL GO OUT, NOT BE ABLE TO WORK.
WHILE DRIVING IN EXTREME DARK CONDITIONS (EG ON A POORLY LIT COUNTRY ROAD), WITH THE HEADLIGHTS ON, A WELL DEMARCATED VEIL OF DARKNESS COVERS APPROXIMATELY 50% OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD (IE THE TOP HALF). THIS CURTAIN-LIKE VEIL OBSTRUCTS THE DRIVER'S VISION, TO THE POINT THAT HE/SHE MUST LOOK "UNDER" THE CURTAIN OF DARKNESS TO CLEARLY SEE THE ROAD. IF, HOWEVER, THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ARE TURNED ON, VISION IS MUCH IMPROVED (ALTHOUGH ONE CAN FAINTLY SEE THE DARKENED TOP HALF OF THE WINDSHIELD). NOT ONLY IS THIS SITUATION UNCOMFORTABLE, BUT IT IS DANGEROUS.
WHILE DRIVING IN STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, EITHER ON THE HIGHWAY OR ON RESIDENTIAL STREETS, OCCASIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WILL HESITATE. THIS HESITATION WILL LAST 1-3 SECONDS AND THEN THE VEHICLE WILL ACCELERATE AS EXPECTED. THIS HESITATION CAN CAUSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION SINCE THE VEHICLE WILL NOT MOVE AS EXPECTED. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW, AND THIS HAS OCCURRED SINCE ITS PURCHASE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE HONDA DEALER, BUT THEY CAN NOT DUPLICATE IT SINCE IT IS AN INTERMITTENT ISSUE. THEIR RESPONSE WAS TO STOP USING THE ECON BUTTON. I HAVE STOPPED USING THIS FEATURE, BUT THE ISSUE HAS PERSISTED, (ALTHOUGH IT HAS LESSENED IN OCCURRENCES). THE ISSUE CAN OCCUR 1-2 TIMES PER WEEK, WITH THE LAST OCCURRENCE ON 12/8/15. THERE IS A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE VEHICLE 15-036, WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT BE RELATED, BUT LAST TIME AT THE DEALER, THEY COULDN'T FIND THE TSB, SO THE SOFTWARE UPDATE LIKELY HAS NOT BEEN MADE TO THE VEHICLE.
APPROX. 4 MONTHS INTO MY OWNERSHIP OF THE VEHICLE, THE BACKUP CAMERA STAYED ON, WHILE THE GEAR WAS IN D (DRIVE). FORTUNATELY IT WAS A SHORT DRIVE BUT IT DID CONCERN ME A LITTLE BIT. THE SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN 2 MONTHS LATER. PICTURES FROM BOTH INCIDENTS ARE ATTACHED. ON THE 2ND INSTANCE THE AUDIO SYSTEM SAID "TURNED OFF" WHILE MUSIC WAS PLAYED LOUD AND CLEAR. I CHANGED GEARS A FEW TIMES WHILE ACTUALLY IN THE PARKING SPOT TO SEE IF IT RESETS, BUT NO LUCK. INCIDENT HAS NOT BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALER YET. WAS THE COMPUTER ON THE CAR THINKING THAT I WAS REVERSING THE CAR WHILE I WAS ACTUALLY GOING FORWARD? ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE INTEGRATION OF TRANSMISSION TO ELECTRONICS? WHAT IF THE AIR BAGS DO NOT DEPLOY OR EARLY WARNING SYSTEMS LIKE FORWARD COLLISION OR LANE DEPARTURE ALERTS DO NOT WORK? I AM CONTINUING TO DRIVE THE CAR BUT VERY CONCERNED FOR FAMILY AND MY OWN SAFETY.
EXCESSIVE WIND NOISE COMING FROM WINDOWS. MAINLY NOTICED FROM DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS. MORE NOTICEABLE AT HIGHER SPEEDS. NO WATER LEAKS DETECTED DURING TIME OF RAIN OR DURING CAR WASH.
I JUST PURCHASED THE CAR ON JULY 2015. MY CAR HAS 5,350 MILES. I NOTICE WHEN I DRIVE THE VEHICLE IT TAKES A LOT OF ENERGY TO ADJUST TO THE SPEED ALMOST LIKE A PUSH BACK/STALL. THERE IS ALSO RATTLING WHEN I DRIVE THAT I CAN'T ATTRIBUTE TO ANY PERSONAL ITEMS.
INTERMITTENTLY, BUT ALWAYS UPON ACCELERATION (COULD BE PULLING ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM A STOPPED POSITION, MERGING/SPEEDING UP TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY OR PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE, OR STARTING TO MOVE WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN) THE CAR WILL FALL FLAT WITH NO POWER. IT DOESN'T STALL, JUST DOESN'T RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL. MOST TIMES, HAPPENS IN SECOND GEAR. RELEASING THE GAS PEDAL AND THEN PRESSING IT AGAIN MOST TIMES RESOLVES THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES, IT TAKES A FEW TRIES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM, AND I HAVE HAD MANY MOTORISTS SWERVE AROUND ME OR BLOW THE HORN AT ME BECAUSE I CAN'T GET THE CAR MOVING FAST ENOUGH. I JUST SPENT $30,000 ON THIS NEW CAR, AND THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY'RE SENDING ME ON MY WAY WITH A VEHICLE THAT'S A POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP.
THIS IS 2015 BRAND NEW ACCORD LX WITH CVT. THE ISSUES ARE: 1. THE CAR HAS OBVIOUS SIDE TO SIDE SWAY AT SPEED 15 MPH. 2. THE CAR HAS BIG AMPLITUDE VIBRATION AT SPEED 25~35 MPH. ESPECIALLY ON A DOWNWARD SLOPE. 3. THE WHOLE CAR IS VIBRATING AT HIGH SPEED (>70 MPH). MY HANDS AND LEGS FELT NUMBED AFTER DRIVING 30 TO 40 MINUTES ON HIGHWAY.
THE HEADREST SLANTS FORWARD PUSHING THE HEAD OUT OF LINE WITH THE BACK. THIS CAUSES NECK PAIN. THE HEADREST WILL ADJUST UP AND DOWN ONLY. AFTER DRIVING LONG DISTANCE YOUR NECK IS IN PAIN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT 80 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STARTED TO DECELERATE RAPIDLY TO 40 MPH. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,200.
TEST TEST TEST
BUY GRAND NEW 2015 HONDA ACCORD EX AND DRVING ONLY 67 MILES GET THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON WHEN DRIVING ON CITY STREET INDICATE THETRACTION SYMBOL AND STEERING WHEEL SYMBOL PROBLEM . BRING THE CAR BACK TO DEALER FOR FIXED AND BEEN TOLD THAT THE V-TECH SOLENOID IS BAD , THEY HAVE TO REPLACE A NEW ONE AND TEST DRIVE FOR 20 MILES TO SEE IF PROBLEM STILL OCCUR ( DON'T MAKE ANY SENSE )
LOST POWER STEERING, WHICH IS ELECTRIC ON THIS CAR. SUDDEN INCREASED EFFORT REQUIRED TO STEER, LIGHT ILLUMINATED IN GAUGE CLUSTER SHOWING STEERING WHEEL AND EXCLAMATION POINT. DEALER HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE IT OUT SINCE THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON A DOZEN OCCASIONS BUT NOT WITH REGULARITY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE CONTACT FELT NUMBNESS ON THE RIGHT FOOT DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AT ANY SPEED, THE HEADLIGHTS APPEARED TO HAVE A BLACK SHADE THAT COVERED HALF OF THE LAMPS ON BOTH SIDES. THE CONTACT COULD NOT SEE THE ROAD OR ANY OBJECT ENTIRELY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS FUNCTIONING AS DESIGNED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.
WHILE TURNING LEFT AFTER THE STOP LIGHT DISPLAYED GREEN, THE STEERING WHEEL GOT LOCKED AND BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN. I ENDED UP HITTING THE CURB ON THE RIGHT SIDE. I TURNED THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE. ONLY THEN WAS I ABLE TO ROTATE THE STEERING WHEEL. FORTUNATELY IT WAS A MID-DAY AND THERE WAS NO CAR BEHIND. TWO DAYS LATER, AGAIN WHILE RETURNING HOME FROM WORK WHICH IS ABOUT A MILE AWAY, AGAIN THE STEERING WHEEL GOT LOCKED WHEN DEPARTING FROM THE INTERSECTION. THIS TIME I WAS GOING STRAIGHT, BUT THE STEERING WHEEL GOT LOCKED AND WAS VERY HARD TO MOVE. I HAD TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN TO ENTER THE APARTMENT COMPLEX, WHEN WITH MUCH DIFFICULTY WAS ABLE TO MAKE A WIDE SWERVE AND PARK IN THE LOT. I COULD SEE THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING (EPS) INDICATOR TURNED ON IN THE DASHBOARD. AGAIN TO RELEASE THE LOCK, I HAD TO RESTART THE ENGINE. I GOT THE CAR TOWED TO NEARBY HONDA DEALER. THE SERVICE ENGINEER SAID THAT HE HAS NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM!!! WHAT A SHAME!!! HIS TOTAL LACK OF KNOWLEDGE OF SUCH A PROBLEM IS MORE WORRISOME THAN THE ACTUAL DEFECT ITSELF. I TOLD HIM THAT THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT SUCH AN ISSUE IN ONLINE. NOT SURE IF THE DEALER CAN CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA HAS TO TAKE SERIOUS ACTION ON. MY TRUST ON HONDA'S SAFETY IS LOST NOW!
THE TIRES ARE ALL PERMANENTLY DAMAGED DUE TO IMPROPER TIRE WEAR. EXTREMELY LOUD ROAD NOISE REDUCED HANDLING SAFTEY AND STOPPING PROPERTIES. THE UNEVEN TIRE WEAR IS BEING CAUSED BY A MECHANICAL ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. ONE THAT HONDA HAS FAILED TO OWN UP TO. THE CAR IS BRAND NEW THE PEOPLE FROM THE TIRE SHOP SAID THAT MANY NEW HONDAS COME IN THERE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM
I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. I HEARD A LOUD NOISE. HOWEVER, I DIDNT SEE ANY ROCKS OR ANY OBJECT FLYING TOWARDS MY CAR. IT WAS VERY STRANGE FOR THE SUNROOF TO JUST EXPLODE OUT OF NOWHERE. I WENT TO A HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS IMPACTED BY AN OBJECT. I DID NOT SEE ANYTHING AROUND THAT WOULD HAVE SMASHED INTO THE SUNROOF.
WHILE IDLING DOWN THE STREET , I NOTICED THAT THE TACHOMETER INDICATED AN RPM OF LESS THAN 500. I DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO MOVE FORWARD AND HAD NO RESPONSE . THE ACCELERATOR WAS THEN DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH STILL NO RESPONSE. THE ACCELERATOR WAS THE LETUP ALL OF THE WAY AND DEPRESSED AGAIN AND THE ENGINE SPEEDED UP AS NORMAL. THIS SAME PROBLEM WAS EXPERIENCED IN A 2013 HONDA THAT WE JUST TRADED IN FOR THE SAME PROBLEM THAT EXISTED FOR THE TWO YEARS THAT WE OWNED IT. THIS COULD BE A DANGEROUS SITUATION IF IT OCCURRED IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR ON A FREEWAY. HONDA SAYS THAT THESE ARE THE ONLY TWO VEHICLES THAT HAVE EVER BEEN REPORTED WITH THIS KIND OF PROBLEM. PLEASE ENTER THIS AS A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS TRAFFIC PROBLEM .
WHEREAS THIS DOES NOT SERVE AS AN IMMEDIATE THREAT TO LIFE OR LIMB, AS A RN OF 10 YEARS, I DO FEEL IT NEEDS ATTENTION FROM NHTSA FOR LONG-TERM HEALTH HAZARDS. THE SEAT IN THIS VEHICLE, WHICH I HAVE OWNED FOR 2 DAYS, IS NOT ONLY UNCOMFORTABLE, IT CAUSES SEVERE LEFT LEG NUMBNESS, PAIN, TINGLING, BURNING THAT DOESN'T RESOLVE WHEN EXITING THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A STEP ABOVE DISCOMFORT, IT IS A LONG-TERM, POSSIBLY SHORT-TERM HEALTH HAZARD, AS I DON'T KNOW THAT I COULD HANDLE ANOTHER 1 HR DRIVE IN THE VEHICLE AND STILL WALK WHEN GETTING OUT OF THE VEHICLE. BEING ABLE TO WALK AND HAVING INTACT NEUROVASCULAR STATUS IN LOWER EXTREMITIES IS QUITE IMPORTANT AND THIS VEHICLE COMPROMISES THAT SIGNIFICANTLY. AS SAID, I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A WIDE GAP BETWEEN ERGONOMICS AND SAFETY CONCERNS. I TRULY FEEL THAT, FROM A MEDICAL STANDPOINT, HONDA HAS BRIDGED THIS GAP AND CREATED A TRUE SAFETY HAZARD WITH THE DESIGN OF THESE SEATS. I WILL BE RELENTLESSLY SEARCHING FOR A SOLUTION IN THE MEANTIME, BUT MY ACHING BUTT AND NUMB LEG ARE CRYING FOR HELP FROM HONDA AND NHTSA.
WHILE TRAVELING SOUTHBOUND ON RT. 95 IN DELAWARE, THE SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED ON MY THREE MONTH OLD 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE SOUND WAS SIMILAR TO A LOUD GUN SHOT, FOLLOWED BY A CRACKLING NOISE. THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS IN MY CAR DID NOT SEE OR HEAR ANYTHING HIT THE CAR ROOF, AND NONE OF THE SURROUNDING VEHICLES TOOK ANY ACTION THAT WOULD HAVE SUGGESTED SOMETHING HAD FALLEN OUT OF THE SKY. THE SUNROOF SHADE WAS CLOSED, SO NO GLASS ENTERED THE CABIN. PRICE HONDA IN DOVER, DE, REPLACED THE SUNROOF GLASS UNDER WARRANTY. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP, WHERE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN MARLTON, NJ, (BURNS), WAS RELUCTANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE POSSIBILITY THAT THE SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED AND EVEN HAD THE AUDACITY TO CHARGE US FOR TOUCH-UP PAINT. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH RESULTED IN SEVERAL NEWS REPORTS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM WITH MANY MAKES AND MODELS. NHTSA SHOULD PUT AUTO MANUFACTURERS ON NOTICE ABOUT THIS DEFECT AND COMPEL THEM TO TAKE ACTION TO ENSURE ALL SUNROOF GLASS IS THICK ENOUGH TO ELIMINATE FUTURE GLASS FAILURE, WHICH COULD RESULT IN SEVERE ACCIDENTS WITH FATAL CONSEQUENCES. THANK YOU. *TR
I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGH WAY AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN A LIGHT CAME ON THAT SAID "POWER SYSTEM FAIL" AND I LOST THE ABILITY TO USE THE ACCELERATOR. I STAYED CALM BECAUSE THERE WERE CARS ALL AROUND ME AND I BEGAN TO COAST AND USE MOMENTUM TO DRIFT TO THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY. THEN A SECOND LIGHT CAME ON AND SAID 'BRAKE SYSTEM POWER FAIL". I TAPPED THE BREAK AND IT SEEMED TO WORK BUT I CONTINUED TO COAST DOWN THE SHOULDER OF THE HIGHWAY UNTIL I RAN OUT OF MOMENTUM. I THEN TURNED MY BRAND NEW HONDA ACCORD EXL HYBRID OFF AND RESTARTED THE CAR. THE LIGHTS REMAINED ON BUT THE ACCELORATOR WAS WORKING SO I DROVE THE CAR TO THE CLOSEST SERVICE AREA ON THE HIGHWAY. I THEN CALLED HONDA ROADSIDE WHO TOLD ME TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND WAIT FOR A TOW TRUCK. HE SAID THAT I MUST HAVE BROKEN A BELT. WHY HE SAID OR THOUGHT THAT HE COULD DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM FROM A CALL CENTER I'M NOT SURE. IT WAS OVER 100 DEGREES SO I DID NOT LISTEN TO THE MAN FROM HONDA BECAUSE IT WAS TOO HOT AND NOT SAFE FOR ME TO SIT IN THE VEHICLE WITHOUT AIR. I WAITED FOR A TOW TRUCK WHICH COST ME $250 EVEN THOUGH ITS A BRAND NEW CAR AND I HAVE HONDA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. MY HUSBAND CAME AND MET ME WHERE THE TOW LEFT ME. HE DROVE THE VEHICLE TO OUR DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US THAT THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF THIS EVER HAPPENING AND THE COMPUTER DOES NOT SHOW THAT ANYTHING HAPPENED. IT WAS SO SCARY AND DANGEROUS AND I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THEY SAY THAT THEY CAN'T DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE NOTHING IS WRONG. THEY EVEN ASKED ME IF I ACCIDENTALLY TURNED THE CAR OFF WHILE DRIVING?!?!?! THAT ISN'T POSSIBLE!!!! I JUST FOUND THE EXACT SAME COMPLAINT FROM ANOTHER HONDA DRIVER ON HERE WHICH ALSO SHOWS THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AND SOMETHING IS WRONG. AS A WOMAN WHO CHOSE THIS CAR BECAUSE IT IS SUPPOSED TO BE SO RELIABLE AND SAFE I AM SO UPSET. I DO NOT BELIEVE THAT MY VEHICLE IS SAFE.
I HAVE HAD THREE INCIDENTS IN THE 4500 MILES THAT I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR WHERE THE SUN REFLECTS OFF OF THE SHINY PORTION OF THE CHROME CENTER CONSOLE AND BLINDS ME. THIS IS UNSAFE AND CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. OTHER COMPANY'S USE NON-REFLECTIVE TO AVOID THIS. I THINK IT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I ALSO THINK FMVSS STANDARDS SHOULD ADDRESS THIS EXTREMELY UNSAFE CONDITION. I THREW A RAG OVER THE PORTION OF THE CONSOLE TO PREVENT THE SUN FROM REFLECTING IN MY EYES SO I WOULD NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT.
MY STOCK RADIO KEPT GOING ON AND OFF. IT WOULD JUST STOP PLAYING AND THEN START PLAYING ON IT'S OWN. LIKE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT. I WENT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AFTER IT CONTINUED. THEY SAID IT WOULD COST ME $500 TO JUST LOOK AT IT NOT GUARANTEE THAT THEY COULD FIX IT. THE RADIO IS PART OF THE AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM KNOBS AND I DIDN'T WANT ANY FURTHER SHORTS TO OCCUR SINCE THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THAT PART OF THE SYSTEM. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED WITH THE BRAKES ENGAGED, THERE WAS A LOSS OF POWER. SECONDS LATER, THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 500.
FOR A WEEK THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD SHOWED THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE ABS BRAKES & TRACTION DEVICE FLASHING AND SO WE TOOK IT IN TO HONDA TO HAVE THEM FIND OUT WHY. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS A SUNDAY AFTERNOON (MAY 31TH) AND THE FELLOW SAID IT WAS A COMPUTER GLITZ AND HE RESET THE COMPUTER. IN LESS THAN 1 DAY THE LIGHTS APPEARED AGAIN, SO WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THAT WEDNESDAY JUNE 3RD TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT; WHEN WE GOT THERE THEY SAID IT WOULD TAKE 2-3 HOURS TO CHECK ALL THE CODES, ETC. WE WERE NOT TOLD THIS WHEN WE MADE THE APPOINTMENT, SO WE DID NOT HAVE THE TIME THAT DAY. WE ASKED THE MAN THAT TALKED TO US (IT WAS MIKE OR DOUG) WOULD IT BE DANGEROUS TO DRIVE IT AND HE SAID "NO." ....JUST COMPUTER PROBLEMS. SO THE VERY NEXT DAY AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK IN MY ONLY 4 MONTH OLD CAR AND WAS ON THIS 2 LANE ROAD THAT IS BY ALL INFO CAN BE DANGEROUS. I WAS IN A STRAIGHT WAY (WHICH IS A BLESSING) AND PRESSED ON THE BRAKE TO SLOW DOWN THE CAR AND IT PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND THE CAR SLAMMED AGAINST A 2 FOOT ASFAULT CURB CAUSING THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE TO BLOW AND SENDING MY CAR INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THANK THE LORD NO CARS WERE COMING, BUT I HAD A HORRIBLE TIME STOPPING THE CAR AND BRINGING IT INTO A RIGHT LANE. THEN I HAD TO DRIVE ABOUT 1/2 MILE TO WHERE I COULD PULL OVER SAFELY (I WAS DRIVING ON THE RIM). WE KNEW RIGHT AWAY THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR, AND TOLD THIS TO OUR INSURANCE WHEN WE CALLED IN THE CLAIM. THE LIGHTS WERE STILL FLASHING AFTER IT WAS REPAIRED! THE AUTO BODY MAN THEN TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA TO HAVE IT CHECKED, AND THEY FOUND OUT THAT THE WHEEL-BARING ON THE WHEEL WAS PUT IN BACKWARDS!! THIS CAUSED THE BRAKES TO FAIL! THEY MADE ME TAKE BACK THE SAME CAR WITH NO OTHER CHOICE (IT IS A LEASE). I JUST WANTED A NEW CAR THAT I WAS NOT CONCERNED TO DRIVE. LIBERTY MUTUAL (OUR COMPANY) IS GOING ON RECOVERY; THEY SAY GET A LAWYER!
HONDA A/C CONDENSER PRONE TO DAMAGE FROM ROAD DEBRIS IN DECEMBER 2014 I PURCHASED A NEW 2015 HONDA ACCORD. ON JULY 9, 2015 MY AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED WORKING. I LIVE IN FLORIDA WHERE THE SUMMER IS EXTREMELY HOT MAKING EVEN THE SHORTEST OF TRIPS VERY UNCOMFORTABLE. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT MORNING FOR SERVICE, KNOWING THAT I HAVE A 3 YEAR/36,000 MILE WARRANTY IN ADDITION TO AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WAS SURE THAT THE REPAIR WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I WAS INFORMED THAT A ROCK/PEBBLE HAD PIERCED MY CONDENSER WHICH PUT A PINHOLE IN IT, AND IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HONDA INDICATED THAT THE COST TO FIX THE CONDENSER IS $716.85. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE TO SPEAK WITH THE GENERAL MANAGER TO SEE IF THIS CAN BE RESOLVED GIVEN THAT MY CAR IS ONLY 8 MONTHS OLD WITH ONLY 9000 MILES AND I WAS TOLD TO GO THROUGH MY INSURANCE COMPANY. I ALSO REACHED OUT TO HONDA OF AMERICA AND WAS TOLD THAT THE DAMAGE WAS CAUSED BY ROAD DEBRIS AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW. THE HONDA AIR-CONDITIONING CONDENSER IS UNDULY PRONE TO DAMAGE CAUSED BY "NORMAL" ROAD DEBRIS THAT DOES NOT AFFECT OTHER AUTO MANUFACTURER'S CONDENSER DESIGN. AS WITH OTHER AUTO MAKERS, THE FRONT BUMPER CLIP IS WIDE OPEN TO ANY KIND OF ROAD DEBRIS AND THE CONDENSER SITS RIGHT BEHIND THE FRONT AIR INTAKE WITH NO PROTECTION AT ALL. HOWEVER, THIS TYPICAL DESIGN POSES A PROBLEM FOR THE HONDA CONDENSERS AND WILL HAPPEN OVER & OVER AGAIN, AND HONDA REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT CALLING IT NORMAL AND WORKING AS DESIGNED! THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.
I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD ( PURCHASED IN DEC 2014), ON JULY 9TH MY A/C STOPPED WORKING, I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER ON JULY 10TH AROUND 7:00 AM FOR SERVICE. I RECEIVED A CALL FROM THE DEALER STATING THAT MY AC/ CONDENSER HAD A LEAK DUE TO "ROAD DAMAGE", POSSIBLE HIT BY A PEBBLE AND CAUSED A LEAK, AND IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE COST TO FIX IT IS $716.85. TO ADD INSULT TO INJURY I HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY... I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. AFTER DOING MY RESEARCH ONLINE, THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE WITH HONDA ACCORD. THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW DUE TO LACK OF PROPER PROTECTION BEHIND THE LOWER GRILL FOR THE AC/ CONDENSER. I REACHED OUT TO AMERICAN HONDA TO SEE IF THEY COULD ASSIST AND I WAS TOLD ' THIS IS NOT A MANUFACTURE DEFECT" I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASION TO SPEAK WITH THE GENERAL MANAGER AND I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO ASSIST. I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT MY INSURANCE COMPANY. NICE DESIGN HONDA... I DID SOME RESEARCH AND PEOPLE ARE GOING TO HOME DEPOT TO FIX AN OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW .

INITIAL USE OF THE AUTOMATIC AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEM PUTS THE PASSENGER CABIN INTO "AIR RECIRCULATION" MODE IN ORDER TO BRING THE TEMPERATURE DOWN AS QUICKLY AS POSSIBLE. UNFORTUNATELY IT WILL NOT TURN AIR RECIRCULATION OFF UNTIL THE INTERIOR AIR TEMPERATURE HAS REACHED THE TEMPERATURE ASKED FOR. THIS CAN TAKE A LONG TIME. WE HAVE BEEN TOLD FOR YEARS THAT IT ISN'T SAFE TO LEAVE RECIRCULATION ON FOR TOO LONG DUE TO THE POSSIBILITY OF DANGEROUS EXHAUST GASES ENTERING THE CABIN. RECIRCULATION CAN BE TURNED OFF BY PUSHING A BUTTON BUT HAVING FRESH AIR SOONER SEEMS SAFER TO ME.
ON 6/25/2015 AT AROUND 9:15AM ON THE WAY TO TAKE MY GRANDFATHER TO A DOCTOR VISIT, AS MY MOTHER WAS EXITING GOLDENWEST ON THE 22 FREEWAY GOING WESTBOUND, EXPERIENCED AN INCIDENT WHERE THE RIGHT REAR TIRE BLEW OUT. THERE WAS NO CONSTRUCTION ON THE ROAD WHERE SHARP OBJECTS COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS TO OCCUR. I HAVE ALSO INSPECTED THE TIRE AND FOUND THAT THERE IS NO OTHER DAMAGE TO THE TREAD OF THE TIRE. WE BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A TIRE DEFECT. PHOTOS HAVE BEEN SUBMITTED TO THE TIRE SUPPLIER, CONTINENTAL TIRES, AS WELL AS HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE THROUGH FACEBOOK AS I COULD NOT LOCATE THEIR EMAIL ADDRESS. WE HAVE CONTACTED AUTONATION HONDA IN COSTA MESA WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AND WAS DIRECTED TO CONTACT THE TIRE SUPPLIER DIRECTLY, WHICH I BELIEVE IS QUITE RIDICULOUS THAT THEY WOULD NOT EVEN ASSIST US IN HANDLING THIS ISSUE WITH THE PRODUCT. MY MOTHER HAS NOT DRIVEN THE VEHICLE SINCE THE INCIDENT DUE TO THE LOSS OF CONFIDENCE IN THESE TIRES. SHE WAS SUPPOSED TO VISIT MY GRANDFATHER TODAY, WHO IS VERY VERY SICK WITH CANCER, BUT SHE DID NOT SINCE SHE IS AFRAID THAT ANOTHER TIRE WILL FAIL IN A SIMILAR FASHION. WE WERE LUCKY THAT IT OCCURRED NEAR WHERE SHE WAS EXITING AND ON A REAR WHEEL. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IF IT WERE ON ONE OF THE FRONT WHEELS SHE USES TO STEER THE CAR.
JUST MADE A LEFT TURN OUT OF MY DEVELOPMENT AND WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WHEN THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. DUE TO THE SMOKE I COULD NO LONGER SEE AND THE CAR HIT A TREE ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ROAD AND THE REST OF THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED..... UPDATED 06/30/15 *BF
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT DID NOT SUSTAIN ANY INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,000.
I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO. HONDA STATES THAT THE TEXT MESSAGES WILL DISPLAY ON THE HONDA DISPLAY AS A HANDS FREE USE. HOWEVER, I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO USE THIS FUNCTION. THE CAR DOESN'T ALLOW THIS FUNCTION. I HAVE DONE EVERYTHING FROM RESETTING MY PHONE AND HAVING THE MANUFACTURE OF THE PHONE CHECK IT OUT. HONDA, TELLS ME THAT THEY ARE NOT COMPATIBLE WITH THE IPHONE 6, WELL, I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD HAVE AN UPDATE ON THEIR SOFTWARE, SO THAT PEOPLE THAT HAVE IPHONES WILL BE ABLE TO USE THIS FEATURE THAT HONDA ADVERSTISES.
THE 2015 HONDA VEHICLES HAVE A "GREEN" PRODUCT THAT CONSIST OF FUEL LINES AND VARIOUS WIRING THAT HAS A SOY BASED COMPOSITION. RODENTS ARE EATING THE FUEL LINES AND WIRING BECAUSE OF THE SOY BASED INGREDIENT. I KNOW OF NUMEROUS VEHICLES THAT HAVE LEAKED GASOLINE DUE TO THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY RODENTS. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM INCLUDES NUMEROUS VEHICLE MAKES. I FEEL THAT OUR NEW HONDA IS A TIME BOMB IN TERMS OF POTENTIAL FIRES. WHERE CAN WE PARK OUR VEHICLE AND KNOW THAT IT IS SAFE FROM RODENTS. PLEASE TAKE MY COMMENTS SERIOUS! IT APPEARS THAT HONDA AMERICA HAS DEVELOPED TAPE TO WRAP THE SOY BASED PRODUCTS IN.....THEY KNOW THAT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM. MY CAR WAS REPAIRED THIS WEEK AND THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT WRAP THE SOY BASED PRODUCTS IN THE TAPE?????? WILL IT TAKE SOMEONE DYING TO GET THIS PROBLEM CORRECTED?
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHROME AROUND THE CUP HOLDERS AND INSTRUMENT PANEL CAUSED A BLINDING AFFECT WHEN THE SUN HIT IT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THEY HAD TO PULL OVER TO KEEP THE GLARE FROM THE SUN FROM MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OTHER VEHICLES AND THE ROADWAY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

HONDA ACCORD EX-L MODEL EQUIPPED WITH LANE WATCHER CAMERA, THIS MODEL COMES WITH STANDARD BACKUP CAMERA. IN SPECIFIC SITUATION THE CAMERA NEVER TURNS OFF CREATING HIGH DISTRACTION. HOW TO PRODUCE, TURN THE ENGINE ON ( FROM A COMPLETE STOP) PUT CAR INTO REVERSE THAT RUNS THE BACKUP CAMERA, IMMEDIATELY TURN THE RIGHT BLINKER ON ( WHICH USUALLY TURN THE LANE WATCHER CAMERA ON) THIS WILL CONFUSE THE SYSTEM AND RESULTING EVEN THOUGH YOU PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE MODE THE BACK CAMERA NEVER TURNS OF. ITS A SOFTWARE GLITCH. HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER. TECHNICIAN FROM DEALER SPOKE TO THE HONDA ENGINEERS, AS ADVISED BY THE HONDA ENGINEER TECHNICIAN DID SAME THING ON A BRAND NEW ACCORD 2015 AND RULED IT AS AN EXPECTED BEHAVIOR. AS A REGULAR DRIVER EVERY ONE HAS HABIT OF USING BLINKER WHETHER YOU ARE BACKING OR NOT. DUE TO THIS I CAN'T USE THE RIGHT BLINKER WHICH HAS POTENTIAL FOR ACCIDENT AND IF USE THIS YOU MAY END UP DRIVING CAR WITH BACK UP CAMERA KEEP ROLLING THIS IS AS DANGEROUS AS DRIVING WITH VIDEO PLAYING. *TR
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SIDE AIRBAG AND WIRES WERE ABLE TO BE ACCESSED BY A CHILD FROM THE REAR SEAT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THERE WAS NO FAILURE AND WAS UNABLE TO ALTER THE DESIGN OF THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45.
I PARKED MY CAR IN TARGET PARKING LOT.( THE CAR IS A MANUAL TRANSMISSION .) I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND APPLIED THE PARKING BRAKE WHERE I DID HEAR A COUPLE OF CLICKS OF ENGAGEMENT OF BRAKE. ENTERED STORE , RETURNED APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES LATER AND MY CAR HAD ROLLED FROM ITS PARKED SPOT APPROXIMATELY 35 -40 FEET BACKWARDS INTO FRONT END OF ANOTHER STATIONARY, UNOCCUPIED VEHICLE. *TR
CAR WOULD NOT START. LIGHTS, RADIO, AIR CONDITION & LIGHT INDICATORS ALL WERE FUNCTIONAL. BATTERY TESTED AND WAS INFORMED WAS NOT THE PROBLEM. CAR WAS TOWED TO CLOSEST HONDA DEALER. *TR
CAR HAS PULLED TO THE LEFT DRAMATICALLY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 60MPH SINCE WE TOOK DELIVERY. DEALER UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR. STATES THAT IT IS "NORMAL" AND THAT IT'S "THE CROWNING OF THE ROAD" THAT CAUSES THIS. *TR
ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, 2015 HONDA ACCORD SPORT'S GAS DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN EVEN AFTER 10-15 ATTEMPTS AT THE GAS STATION. ON TWO OCCASIONS, I WAS EVENTUALLY ABLE TO OPEN THE GAS DOOR AND FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION AND THE OTHER TWO TIMES, I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR (HONDA OF NEW ROCHELLE). ON BOTH OCCASIONS, I WAS SENT BACK WITHOUT SERVICE BEING DONE SINCE THE GAS DOOR OPENED AT THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD FROM THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE PROBLEM COULD BE TEMPERATURE DEPENDENT. *JS
IT SOUNDS AS IF THE FRONT WINDOWS ARE OPEN EVEN WHEN THE CAR IS NOT MOVING. BUT AT ESPECIALLY OVER 45 MPH, THE SOUND OF AIR WOOSHING INTO THE CABIN IS VERY PRONOUNCED. IT IS AT EAR LEVEL ON BOTH THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE. HONDA HAS REPLACED THE WINDOW RUN CHANNELS BUT THE NOISE IS STILL THERE. THEY SAY THIS IS NORMAL OPERATION BUT CANNOT BE. *JS

THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE CHEMICALS WERE MAKING HIM SICK AND A RASH APPEARED ON HIS HAND, BUT LATER WENT AWAY. *JB
WHEN THE TEMPERATURE DROPS RAPIDLY BELOW FREEZING, THE WINDOW MOTORS FREEZE THE WINDOWS BECOME INOPERABLE. THIS OCCURRED WITH MY LEFT FRONT, RIGHT FRONT, AND LEFT REAR WINDOWS. THESE VARIOUS WINDOWS HAVE FROZEN 4 ADDITIONAL TIMES SINCE THE ORIGINAL INCIDENT. SOMETIMES IT HAS ONLY BEEN ONE OF THE 3 WINDOWS THAT HAS FROZEN SHUT; OTHER TIMES IT HAS BEEN ALL THREE.
THE AUTOMATIC DRIVER'S SEAT IN MY NEW 2015 ACCORD SPORT ONLY MOVES FORWARD AND BACK, UP AND DOWN (THE ENTIRE SEAT) AND LUMBAR ADJUSTMENT. MY ISSUE HOWEVER IS THAT THE SEAT BOTTOM WHERE IT MEETS THE SEAT BACK IS SUBSTANTIALLY LOWER THAN THE FRONT OF THE SEAT BOTTOM AND THEREFORE CUTS OFF THE CIRCULATION UNDER MY LEGS NO MATTER HOW LOW OR HIGH I ADJUST THE SEAT SINCE IT ONLY EITHER RISES OR LOWERS THE ENTIRE SEAT. AN HOUR IS ABOUT ALL I CAN HANDLE SITTING IN THESE SEATS WITHOUT FEELING THE RISK OF BLOOD CLOTS DUE TO LACK OF CIRCULATION TO MY LOWER LEGS. NOW I SEE ALL THESE COMPLAINTS FROM SHORTER DRIVERS STARTING YEARS AGO WHICH INDICATES THAT HONDA HAS KNOWN ABOUT THE ISSUE FOR YEARS AND DONE NOTHING. *TR
AFTER LEASING MY HONDA ACCORD SPORT, I TOOK IT FOR A DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY, AFTER REACHING THE SPEED OF ABOUT 55 MILES PER HOUR I STARTED HEARING A NOISE ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. FIRST I THOUGHT MY DOOR OR WINDOW WAS NOT FULLY CLOSED BUT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE. IT SOUNDS LIKE AIR IS LEAKING THROUGH THE DOOR ONCE I GET ABOVE 55 MPH. I RECHECKED THE SEALS ON THE DOORS, EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE BUT THE NOISE KEEPS HAPPENING. I MIGHT NEED TO GET THE DOOR SEALS ON THAT SIDE TO BE REPLACED. NOT SURE WHAT TO DO. *TR
AFTER TAKING DELIVERY OF OUR NEW HONDA ACCORD WE WERE DRIVING HOME ON THE FREEWAY WHEN IT BEGAN RAINING. IT WAS A STEADY TO HARD RAIN AND AS THE DRIVERS SIDE WIPER WOULD BRING THE WATER OVER TO THE LEFT SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD THE WATER WOULD BUILD UP AGAINST THE LEFT SIDE MOLDING AND BECOME TRAPPED THERE THEN IT WOULD GET PULLED BACK WITH THE WIPER ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD BLOCKING MY VISION TO MY LEFT. IT WOULD POOL ON THE LEFT SIDE BETWEEN THE MOLDING AND THE WIPER THEN COME BACK WITH THE WIPER BLADE AS IT RETURNED OBSCURING MY VISION. IT APPEARS TO BE A DESIGN FLAW THAT GIVES THE WATER NO WHERE TO EXIT OR DRAIN SO IT IS PULLED OR BLOWN BACK ONTO THE WINDSHIELD AS THE WIPER COMES BACK TO THE RIGHT. THERE IS NO ISSUE WITH THIS DURING A LIGHT RAIN. *TR
MY DAUGHTER PURCHASED A NEW HONDA ACCORD ON 10/31/2014 FROM PLAZA AUTO MALL, 2740 NOSTRAND AVENUE, BROOKLYN NY 11210. THE VEHICLE DID NOT HAVE THE MSRP STICKER ATTACHED TO THE WINDOW, AS REQUIRED BY FEDERAL LAW. THE STICKER IS REQUIRED BY GEICO INSURANCE COMPANY TO AVOID CANCELLATION. PLEASE HELP ME TO OBTAIN THE MSRP FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THANK YOU. *TR
