2013 Honda Accord complaints

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY IS ACCUMULATING MOISTURE CONDENSATION INSIDE OF IT.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

REAR VIEW CAMERA GOES COMPLETELY BLACK ONLY SHOWING GUILDANCE LINES

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

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

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

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

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

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

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, THE STARTER WOULD INTERMITTENTLY GRIND PREVENTING THE VEHICLE FROM STARTING.

TURN CAR IGNITION OFF FOR A MINUTE THAT RESET STEERING TO NORMAL. AT TRAFFIC SINGNAL WHEN STOPPED AT 0 SPEED CLICKING NOISE FELT AT BREAK PADEL AND AT ACCELERATOR. TAKE IT TO A DELER IN ORLANDO FOUND STEERING RACK GEAR BOX NEED TO REPLACE(52-02) ALSO NEEDS WHEEL ALIGNMENT.

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

I PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD LAST FALL. IT HAD 28,000 MILES ON IT AT PURCHASE AND HAS 36,700 MILES TODAY. TWO WEEKS AFTER I HAD AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRES ROTATED, I BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE POWER STEERING PULLING LEFT. WHILE TRAVELING AT 50MPH ON A CROWDED CITY HIGHWAY, MY STEERING WHEEL JERKED LEFT AND I COULD HAVE HIT THE CAR IN THE LANE NEXT TO ME. THE PROBLEM PRESENTED AT INTERMITTENT TIMES OCCURRING LATER IN A TRIP. I DID AN EXPERIMENT IN A PARKING LOT; ROLLING FORWARD VERY SLOWLY, I LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL. THE STEERING WHEEL SPUN TO THE LEFT AND THE CAR EXECUTED A PERFECT 90-DEGREE LEFT TURN BY ITSELF. THE CAR DID THIS AGAIN TWICE MORE DESPITE TURNING THE ENGINE OFF FOR A PERIOD BEFORE TURNING IT BACK ON. I TOOK IT BACK TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO COULD FIND NO ERROR CODE BUT COULD REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. AFTER RESETTING THE TORQUE SENSOR, IT WAS A BIT BETTER BUT NOT FIXED AS THE CAR STILL WANTS TO TURN LEFT. THE STEERING IS ERRATIC SOMETIMES IT IS HARD TO TURN RIGHT AND SOMETIMES THE STEERING FEELS LOOSE. MY LOCAL MECHANIC SENT ME TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR WHO SUGGESTED I TAKE IT TO A HONDA DEALER. THE DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT ALSO REPLICATED THE PROBLEM BUT COULD NOT FIX IT BECAUSE THE CAR DID NOT SHOW ANY ERROR CODES AND HONDA WILL ONLY REIMBURSE THEM IF THE CAR SHOWS TWO SPECIFIC ERROR CODES. I FOLLOWED THEIR SUGGESTION TO CALL HONDA; [XXX]. THE REGIONAL CASE MANAGER CALLED ME BACK, DID NOT ASK ME ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT MY PROBLEM BUT RUDEL

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

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

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

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

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