2013 Honda Accord complaints

PUSH START FAILURE MY CAR HAD 50000 MILES ON IT WHEN IT STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE PUSH START BUTTON. IT DID IT ONCE A WEEK SOMETIMES AND EVENTUALLY HAPPENED EVERY TIME I TRIED TO START THE CAR. I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO PIN POINT THE PROBLEM. THE STARTER CHECKED OUT OK BUT SINCE THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY OTHER PROBLEM, THEY REPLACED THE STARTER AND KEPT THE ORIGINAL INCASE I CONTINUED TO HAVE THE PROBLEM THEY COULD RETURN THE ORIGINAL AND GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK. IT'S BEEN TWO WEEKS AND SO FAR I HAVENT HAD THE PROBLEM ANYMORE. ONLY TIME WILL TELL.

I PARKED VEHICLE ON RESIDENTIAL CITY STREET. RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE 15 MINUTES LATER AND VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. MANY OF THE INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON. CALLED AAA, INITIAL TECHNICIAN RESPONDED AND COULD NOT START THE CAR BY JUMPING WITH BATTERY PACK. BATTERY TESTED OK. TOW TRUCK WAS CALLED, OPERATOR TRIED TO JUMP THE VEHICLE AGAIN WITH BATTERY PACK AND THE VEHICLE STARTED. TOW TRUCK OPERATOR SUGGESTED I TELL THE DEALERSHIP HE SUSPECTED THE STARTER OR THE WIRING TO THE STARTER WAS THE PROBLEM. A/C PRIOR TO THIS EVENT HAD BEEN WORKING NOW HAD NO POWER. DROVE THE VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY TO DEALERSHIP. VEHICLE WAS LEFT AND DIAGNOSED WITH FAULTY STARTER. FUSE WAS BLOWN TO A/C. (WE DID NOTE THAT THE CAR HAD BEEN HARDER TO START RECENTLY - HAVING TO TURN THE KEY MORE THAN 1 TIME TO GET THE CAR TO START. STILL THIS WAS HARDLY NOTICEABLE OR APPARENT THAT A PROBLEM WAS DEVELOPING.) STARTER AND FUSE TO BE REPLACED AT DEALERSHIP WILL BE PICKING UP CAR HOPEFULLY TODAY. THIS WAS NOT MERELY INCONVENIENT AND UNPLEASANT BUT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS EMERGENCY FOR PERSONS WITH HEALTH/MEDICAL ISSUES - IT WAS VERY HOT OUT WITH POOR AIR QUALITY AND PASSENGER AND MYSELF WERE STRANDED AND WITHOUT A/C FOR 4 HOURS. CONCERNED ABOUT THIS HAPPENING AGAIN AND WHY THIS HAPPENED. VEHICLE IS MAINTAINED, 3YRS OLD WITH APPROX. 35,000. I AM SEEING NUMEROUS SIMILAR/IDENTICAL REPORTS FROM OTHER OWNERS.

THE STARTER IN MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD COUPE FAILED AFTER ONLY 3 YEARS AND 55,000 MILES. THE CAR WOULD NOT START WHEN I PRESSED THE PUSH TO START BUTTON AND WOULD FINALLY TURN ON AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS. THIS WENT ON FOR 3 WEEKS UNTIL THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER START.

I AM THE FIRST OWNER OF MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD SPORT AND 2 MONTHS AGO I DEVELOPED AN ISSUE WITH THE STARTER. I'VE REPLACED THE STARTER TWICE AND TONIGHT GOT STRANDED AND HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO BRING IT HOME. I'VE GONE TO THE HONDA DEALER AND, OF COURSE, THERE'S AN ISSUE WITH THE STARTER, BUT IT WILL COST $1000+ TO FIX! THIS ISSUE MUST BE INVESTIGATED AND RECALLED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. HONDA IS FULLY AWARE OF ALL OF THESE ISSUES AND IF YOU GET THE RIGHT TECHNICIAN AT THE DEALERSHIP - THEY'LL TELL YOU HONDA IS FULLY AWARE, BUT COULDN'T CARE LESS! 2 STARTERS LATER - I'M STILL IN THE SAME POSITION!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE STEERING WHEEL VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.

GO TO START MY CAR AND LIGHTS AND AC WORK FINE. THE ENGINE DOES NOT WANT TO TURN OVER AND TAKES SEVERAL ATTEMPTS SOMETIMES AND OTHER TIMES IT STARTS RIGHT OFF. THE BATTERY IS ONLY TWO MONTHS OLD AND THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE STARTER WHICH IS GOING TO COST ME $700!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE. DEALER SAID THAT THIS IS WAY TOO EARLY FOR A STARTER TO GO OUT ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 550 MILES ON IT. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND HAVE FOUND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ACROSS THE U.S. HAVING THIS SAME EXACT ISSUE. THIS NEEDS THE UPMOST IMMEDIATE ATTENTION AS THIS IS A VERY COSTLY AND DETRIMENTAL ISSUE AND SOME OF US HAVE NO MONEY TO FIX THIS!!! THIS MUST BE DEALT WITH NOW BEFORE LAWSUITS START HAPPENING!

INTERMITTENT ENGINE STARTING. STARTER IS ENERGIZED BUT FAILS TO START MOTOR. A LOUD GNASHING OR GRINDING CAN BE HEARD AS THE STARTER TRIES TO TURN MOTOR. IT SOUNDS AS IF THE STARTER DOESN'T FULLY ENGAGE THE FLEX PLATE/FLYWHEEL. ENGINE EVENTUALLY STARTS AFTER SEVERAL (AS MANY AS 10) ATTEMPTS. THE PROBLEM IS NOT CONSISTENT WITH ANY CONDITION. I'VE DRIVEN 2 WEEKS WITH NO ISSUES THEN WILL HAVE 5 EPISODES IN 2 DAYS. A COMPLETELY RANDOM OCCURRENCE BUT VERY FRUSTRATING AND EMBARRASSING.

WHILE DRIVING ON A 2 LANE ROAD, I SUDDENLY LOST POWER IN MY STEERING AND AS I WAS APPROACHING A CURVE I NEARLY CRASHED INTO THE CAR NEXT TO ME. THE STEERING LIGHT CAME ON AND STEERING THE CAR WAS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE. I CONTINUED TO DRIVE AND EXITED A THE NEAREST EXIT AND TURNED OFF THE CAR. WHEN I TURNED IT OFF AND ON AGAIN THE LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD VANISHED AND THE STEERING WAS BACK TO NORMAL. SINCE THEN I HAVEN'T FELT COMFORTABLE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. I CALLED MY LOCAL HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY SAID THAT WITHOUT THE LIGHT ON OR THE ISSUE BEING APPARENT, THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO. I AM CONCERN WITH THIS ISSUE AS IT IMPLIES A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE READ SOME POSTS AND THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR AND MODEL.

I HAVE OWNED MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD SINCE 2013. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS PROBLEMS WITH THIS MODEL. THE MOST BEING WITH THE CAR STARTING. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND THE STARTER AND AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS STARTING THE CAR. I WENT ONLINE AND NOTICED THAT THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL. TH CAR MAKES A CLICKING NOISE AS IF IT IS GOING TO START THEN IT DOESN'T START. ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON AND IT THEN BEGINS TO START AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES HAVE GONE BY. PUSHING THE BUTTON DOES NOT GET THE CAR TO START. YOU HAVE TO PUSH IT NUMEROUS TIMES TO GET IT TO START. THIS PROBLEM HAS COST ME UPWARDS OF $700 TO $1,000 TO REPLACE EVERY TIME THERE IS AN ISSUE. THIS SHOULD BE A MANUFACTURERS ISSUE AS A STARTER SHOULD NOT BE WORN OUT IN 3 YEARS. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT THIS PROBLEM AS I AM SURE IT WILL BE A LAWSUIT COMING SOON BASED ON ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ WITH THIS ISSUE. I AM TAKING MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALER TODAY TO HAVE THIS ISSUE LOOKED AT AGAIN.

THE KEY TURNS OVER BUT ENGINE DOES NOT CRANK

I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER OF A 2013 HONDA ACCORD, EX-L,. MY HONDA HAS 42K MILES. AT ABOUT 25K MILES MY ACCORD STARTED TO MAKE A VERY OBVIOUS AND DISTURBING DRONING/HUMMING NOISE AT SPEEDS ABOVE 40 MPH. THE NOISE BECAME PROGRESSIVELY LOUDER AS TIME WENT BY. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER 2 TIMES AND ASKED THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM, TO NO AVAIL. AFTER HAVING NEW TIRES INSTALLED AT 42K MILES, AND THE DRONING NOISE WAS STILL OCCURRING, I BROUGHT THE CAR TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER A THIRD TIME AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE NOISE PROBLEM AS COMING FROM A DEFECTIVE FRONT RIGHT WHEEL BEARING AND A DEFECTIVE REAR LEFT WHEEL BEARING. BOTH WHEEL BEARINGS WERE REPLACED ON JULY 27, 2016 AND THE DRONING NOISE ABOVE 40 MPH IS GONE. REPLACING THE WHEEL BEARINGS FIXED THE PROBLEM! THE SERVICE ADVISOR AT THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO EXPLAIN WHY THE WHEEL BEARINGS FAILED, AND HE STATED THAT THE TECHNICIANS AT THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT KNOW WHY/HOW THE BEARINGS FAILED EITHER. I CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA HQ ON AUGUST 1, 800-999-1009, AND WAS TOLD THAT HONDA AMERICA WOULD NOT DISCLOSE THE DETAILS OF THE BEARING FAILURES. THEY ALSO DECLINED MY REQUEST TO AUTHORIZE THE REPLACEMENT OF THE REMAINING 2 WHEEL BEARINGS. HONDA AMERICA ESTABLISHED A CASE NUMBER FOR MY ISSUE, CASE # 04884545. DUE TO THE LACK OF TRANSPARENCY FROM HONDA AMERICA AS TO THE CAUSE/RESOLUTION OF THE WHEEL BEARING FAILURES, I AM CONCERNED THAT THE UNDERLYING BEARING OR WHEEL STRUCTURE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED, AND THAT MY 2013 HONDA

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE FAILED TO START AND THE NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM FAILED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE IGNITION ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAUSED THE BATTERY TO DRAIN. THE NAVIGATIONAL ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED TO OPERATE DUE TO BATTERY FAILURE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY AND THE STARTER ASSEMBLY; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START AND THE NAVIGATIONAL SYSTEM CONTINUED TO FAIL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,031.

WHILE DRIVING ON A LOCAL STREET I ATTEMPTED TO MALE A LEFT WHEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE LOST POWER STEERING. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, TURNED IT ON AND THE STEERING RESPONDED. THAT SAME DAY WHEN RETURNING HOME I DECIDED NOT TO TAKE THE HIGHWAY BECAUSE OF THE STEERING PROBLEM. AGAIN, THIS TIME WHILE DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE THE VEHICLE LOST STEERING. TURNING IT OFF AGAIN FOR THREE MINUTES SEEMED TO RESTORE STEERING.

PREMATURE BRAKE WEAR. REPLACED FRONT ROTORS AND FRONT PADS LAST YEAR DUE TO VIBRATION ALONG WITH REAR PADS. AROUND JUNE 2015 WITH 55,000 MILES ON CAR. THEN THE REAR CALIPER SEIZED UP ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IN MARCH 2016, 70245 MILES. REAR ROTORS RESURFACED AND PADS REPLACED. NOW I JUST HAD SERVICE DONE BECAUSE REAR DRIVER SIDE CALIPER SEIZED UP. THEY ALSO DID FRONT ROTORS AND PADS DUE TO EXCESSIVE WEAR. MILEAGE 79000.

MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD EX-L HAS BEEN HAVING INTERMITTENT STARTING PROBLEMS (PUSH BUTTON START). THIS STARTING HAPPENING APPROXIMATELY THREE WEEKS AGO. YESTERDAY, JULY 14, 2016, THE CAR WOULD NOT START AT ALL. THIS IS NOT A CAR BATTERY ISSUE BECAUSE ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ARE WORKING, I.E. RADIO, DASH LIGHTS, HORN ETC. THIS ALSO IS NOT A KEY FOB BATTERY ISSUE BECAUSE THE KEY FOB STILL LOCKS AND UNLOCKS THE DOOR. CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE PROBLEM DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. THIS CAR IS STILL UNDER THE ORIGINAL MANUFACTURER'S WARRANTY, CAR IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS A LITTLE OVER 32,000 MILES.

WHILE DRIVING 7/15/16 THE ELECTRIC STEERING WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT WENT ON, AND THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN OR STEER UNTIL IT FINALLY CEASED TO TURN (TOTAL TIME FOR COMPLETE LOSS OF STEERING CAPABILITY WAS LESS THAN 1 MIN.). I WAS DRIVING ON A 4-LANE CITY STREET TRAVELING AT ABOUT 45MPH. I TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF FOR ABOUT 3 MINS. AND THEN RESTARTED IT. THE INDICATOR LIGHT WAS OFF AND THE STEERING WORKED FINE. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP WHO TOLD ME THE CAR IS PROBABLY FINE AS IT HAD A SOFTWARE UPDATE INSTALLED 9 MOS. AGO AND IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN I SHOULD BRING THE CAR IN FOR REPLACING THE STEERING BOX. I REQUESTED A NOTE BE MADE IN MY CAR REPAIR HISTORY. THEY DID NOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANY PAPERWORK.

ON TWO OF OUR TIRES THE RUBBER CRACKED AND COMPLETELY SPLIT FROM THE RADIAL AROUND 1/3 TO 2/3 AROUND THE TIRE ABOUT 0.25" FROM THE WHEEL RIM. THIS HAPPENED ON 2 OF THE 4 TIRES (ALL THE SAME DOT AND INSTALLED AT THE SAME TIME.) THE REAR TIRES SHOW THE INITIAL SIGNS OF THE SAME DEFECT BUT THE RUBBER HASN'T SEPARATED YET FROM THE RADIAL. THE TIRES HAVE ABOUT 45,000 MILES ON THEM INSTALLED AND SERVICE BY FIRESTONE. LUCKILLY THERE WAS NOT AN ACCIDENT, BREAKDOWN, FIRE, ETC; HOWEVER, IT IS VERY SUSPICIOUS THAT ALL FOUR TIRES HAVE NEARLY THE SAME DEFECT. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE TIRES. DOT Y9BC CLHX 3315. BRAND PRIME WALL SIZE 205/65/R16 ON 2013 HONDA ACCORD. LOCATED IN SAN DIEGO CALIFORNIA.

2ND TIME HAVING THE FCW FAILED ISSUE. DASH LIGHTS UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. TRACTION AND SLUGGISH RESPONSE TO FOOT ON PEDAL. MAKES ME NERVOUS TO DRIVE. COST ME A TON TO FIX THE FIRST TIME, I'M SURE THEY WILL CHARGE ME AGAIN. READING ONLINE I AM NOT ALONE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS.

IN ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO, WHEN SOMETIMES I TURN THE WHEELS I LOOSE THE POWER AND THE CAR RESTARTED. IT MAKING ME SCARY TO DRIVE THE CAR. I WENT TO THE HONDA DEALER IN COLLAGE PARK, MARYLAND WITH THE RECALL LETTER FOR THE EPS SYSTEM THAT I RECEIVED AND EXPLAINED TO THEM THE PROBLEM THAT I AM HAVING, BUT I DID NOT GET ANY HELP. THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS AN UPDATE ON MY SYSTEM LAST YEAR AND THAT THE PROBLEM IS NOT CAUSED BY THE EPS SYSTEM AND I HAVE TO PAY $130 FOR THE DIAGNOSE.

FIRST OCCASION IT HAPPENED, THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED TO THE RIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL LIGHT DID NOT COME ON.. (30 MPH) SECOND OCCASION IT HAPPENED, THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED TO THE RIGHT, THE STEERING WHEEL LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. I WAS DRIVING ROUGHY 20 MPH. THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING 70 MPH AND ALMOST HIT THE GUY NEXT TO ME. THE STEERING WHEEL LIGHT DID NOT COME ON THE FOURTH TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING 40 MPH AND THE STEERING WHEEL LIGHT DID COME ON. I DID NOT HAVE POWER STEERING FOR ABOUT 30 MILES. THE FIFTH TIME IT HAPPENED, I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 80 MPH AND THE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON.

STARTER MOTOR HAD PROGRESSIVE PREMATURE FAILURE. BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH CAR NOT STARTING ABOUT A MONTH AGO. LOUD CLICK, ALL DASH LIGHTS WOULD COME ON, BUT NO CRANK OR START. EVENTUALLY WOULD NOT RE-START AND LEFT CAR STRANDED. CAR STARTED WITH JUMPER CABLES. DEALER DIAGNOSED STARTER FAILURE. VEHICLE IS 2-1/2 YEARS OLD WITH 49,845 MILES. DEALER DID NOT OFFER WARRANTY REPAIR. COST FOR REPLACEMENT WAS $724.00.

I WENT TO CRANK MY CAR, WHICH WAS PERFECTLY FINE YESFERDAY , AND IT WONT TURN OVER AND THERE ARE SEVERAL LIGHTS ON AND CLICKING AND BLINKING. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE THE BATTERY AND TRIED TO JUMP IT OFF AND NOTHING CHANGED. A SYMBOL THAT LOOKS LIKE A STEERING WHEEL AND EXCLAMATION POINT, LOW TIRE LIGHT, BRAKE LIGHT, AND SKID CONTROL SYMBOLS WERE ALL ON.

STARTER MOTOR DOESN'T ENGAGE. THE MOTOR TURNS BUT DOESN'T MAKE ENGINE TURN OVER.

WHILE DRIVING MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP TWICE AFTER A DASH LIGHT CAME ON. THIS ALMOST RESULTED IN A CRASH BOTH TIMES I WAS ABLE TO STOP. TO GET THE WHEEL TO UNLOCK I HAD TO TURN THE CAR OFF RESTART IT AND IT WOULD WORK PROPERLY AGAN. THIS IS A V6 ACCORD AND HAS APPROX 38000 MILES ON IT WELL MAINTAINED. PLEASE HELP THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURIES OR DEATH IF LOCKS UP ESPECIALLY ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. NOTE THAT I WAS MAKING LEFT TURNS BOTH TIMES.

MY 2013 ACCORD SPORT HAS BEEN INTERMITTENTLY STARTING FOR MONTHS WHEN STATIONARY. I CHANGED THE BATTERY TO A STRONGER CRANKING ONE AND IT DID NOT FIX IT ALTHOUGH NOW IT WILL START EVENTUALLY AFTER SEVERAL TRIES. I HAVE TESTED THE ALTERNATOR AND IT PASSED. NEXT IS THE STARTER BUT HONDA CHANGED ITS LOCATION AND PLACED IT UNDER THE MOTOR. I SUBMITTED LINKS FROM A HONDA FORUM TO THIS WEBSITE DOCUMENTING MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WHETHER THEY DRIVE LX, EX, OR SPORT. CVT MANUAL IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER. I HAVE NOT REPLACED THE STARTER AND THINK IT SHOULD BE RECALLED IF THAT'S THE ISSUE. THERE ARE YOUTUBE VIDEOS ALSO POPPING UP WITH 2013 ACCORDS NOT STARTING.

THIS ISSUE STARED LAST WEEK I DIDN'T THINK TOO MUCH ON THIS BUT AS THE DAYS GOES ON IT TAKE LONGER FOR ME TO START MY CAR AND ME DAY I HAVE TO STOP AT LEASE 2 TO 4 TIMES TO GET THE CAR TO START. AS I CONTINUE TO SEARCH ONLINE TO SEE WHAT WAS THE ISSUE I AM SEEING MORE AND MORE OF THIS PROBLEM OF WHAT I AM HAVING. MY CAR HAS BEEN PARKED AND THERE IS NO WIRES CONNECTED TO THE CAR TO DRAIN THE BATTERY, I HAVE CHANGE BOTH MY CAR BATTERY IN MY KEY BATTERY ALREADY. THIS IS VERY ANNOYING I'VE BEEN USING HONDA FOR MANY YEARS NOW AND I NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. WITH MY OTHER PASS HONDA I WOULD HAVE TO TURN THE KEY.

THERE WAS TOTAL POWER STEERING FAILURE WHILE DOING PARALLEL PARKING TWICE IN AN HOUR TODAY (5/30/2016). IT TOO MUCH EFFORT TO TURN EVEN A LITTLE. WE WERE LUCKY WE WERE NOT ON HIGHWAY OR STREET. RESTARTING THE CAR SEEMED TO RESOLVE FIRST FAILURE. SECOND FAILURE CORRECTED ITSELF UPON DRIVING COUPLE OF FEET. NOW, I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR TILL THIS PROBLEM IS FIXED AS IT MAY RESULT IN CRASH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE HEADREST CAUSED HER NECK PAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED.

2013 ACCORD HAVING ISSUES STARTING, TURN ONCE NOTHING, I GIVE IT A MINUTE THEN IT STARTS, THIS IS EVERY TIME I GET IN MY CAR TO DRIVE. I'VE ALREADY HAD TO REPLACE BATTERY. THIS IS EMBARRASSING CONSIDERING THE CAR IS NOT YET 3 YEARS OLD!

I GOT IN MY CAR THIS MORNING AND COULDN'T GET IT TO START AGAIN. I HAD TO CALL AAA TO JUMP MY CAR.

2013 ACCORD SPORT IS STARTING TO HAVE A STARTING PROBLEM. SOMETIMES ENGINE DOES NOT TURN OVER WHEN FIRST TURNING THE KEY. AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ON THIS SITE IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS PROGRESSIVELY GOING TO GET TO THE POINT OF HAVING TO REPLACE THE STARTER. NOT HAPPY. I WAS HOPING ON HAVING A RELIABLE CAR WHEN I BOUGHT THIS CAR.

2013 HONDA ACCORD SPORT IS STARTING TO HAVE STARTING PROBLEMS, SOMETIMES ENGINE DOESN'T TURN OVER WHEN FIRST TURNING THE KEY. AND FROM WHAT I HAVE READ ON THIS SITE IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS PROGRESSIVELY GOING TO GET TO THE POINT OF HAVING TO REPLACE THE STARTER, NOT HAPPY I WAS HOPING ON HAVING A RELIABLE CAR.

I HAD TO TOW MY CAR HOME TODAY. IT WOULDN'T START. I HAVE HAD TROUBLE WITH IT IN THE PAST WEEKS NOW BUT IT WOULD START EVENTUALLY. BUT NOT THIS TIME. I MIGHT LOSE MY JOB BECAUSE OF THIS CAR FAILURE. WEITHER IT WAS STATIONARY YES BUT COULD OF BEEN BLOCKING TRAFFIC.

THE STARTER IN THE CAR IS NOT STARTING UNTIL 3RD ATTEMPT TO START OR NOT STARTING AT ALL. WE HAVE HAD TO WAIT AND TRY AGAIN MINUTES LATER THEN ON THE THIRD ATTEMPT IT STARTS, THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED AND THE CONNECTIONS TO THE BATTERY ARE GOOD. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 3 WEEKS NOW.

FUEL TANK LEAK NHTSA RECALL NUMBER 13V-297, MFR CAMPAIGN ID JA9 HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL FOR VEHICLES MANUFACTURED FROM 1/15/13 - 4/5/13. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED IN 3/13 AND THEY CLAIM IT DOES NOT FALL IN THE RECALL. I HAVE THE 'CHECK FUEL CAP' WARNING AND THE "MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT' COMING ON WHICH ARE THE INDICATORS SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE SEAL. HONDA IS REFUSING TO ADDRESS MY VEHICLE FOR THIS RECALL.

IN ATTEMPTING PARALLEL PARKING PRACTICE WITH SON, EXPERIENCED TOTAL POWER STEERING FAILURE (MULTIPLE INSTANCES) WHEN WHEEL WAS FULLY TURNED. VEHICLE WAS EITHER STOPPED TO TURN WHEEL INTO PARKING SPOT, OR MOVING VERY SLOW (UNDER 2 MPH).

CAR WON'T START,ABOUT A MONTH AGO I BOUGHT A 2013 HONDA ACCORD EXL V6, IT WORKED FINE FOR ABOUT A WEEK, BUT SOON AFTER THAT I STARTED EXPERIENCING STARTING PROBLEMS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE MECHANIC MANY TIMES, I HAVE HAD THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CHECKED, REPLACED STARTER, THE BATTERY ETC. THE PROBLEM STILL PERSISTS, AFTER DOING MUCH RESEARCH I HAVE LEARNED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS VERY WIDE SPREAD, THERE ARE SEVERAL YOU TUBE VIDEOS, AND POSTS OF FRUSTRATED OWNERS UNABLE TO START THEIR CARS CONSTANTLY HAVING TO REPLACE THE STARTED IN MOST CASES. EVERY CAR FROM 2013-2016 IS SUFFERING FROM THIS PROBLEM, OF BEING UNABLE TO START, AS A COLLEGE STUDENT I DON'T HAVE THAT MUCH MONEY TO CONSTANTLY FIX IT AS IT HAPPENS. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A RELIABLE CAR, TO REPLACE MY OLD CAR WHICH WAS DEVELOPING MAJOR PROBLEMS, BUT AT LEAST THE CAR STARTED EVERY TIME. PLEASE, ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH URGENCY MANY PEOPLE DEPEND ON THESE VEHICLES, TO GET TO WORK SCHOOL ETC.

MY FAMILY AND I WERE STRANDED DUE TO OUR 2013 HONDA ACCORD NOT STARTING. WE JUST CAME OUT OF THE MOVIES AND THE CAR WAS STATIONARY IN THE PARKING LOT. I TURNED THE KEY AND IT WOULD JUST CLICK. I HAD TO PAY FOR TOWING AND OVER $800 TO HAVE THE STARTER REPLACED AT THE HONDA DEALER. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN MORE, BUT I CALLED ANOTHER DEALER AND THEY PRICE MATCHED THE STARTER. I DRIVE A LOT OF MILE TO WORK SO I HAVE OVER 60K MILES IN 2 YEARS. AFTER DOING A LITTLE RESEARCH I FOUND THAT THIS PROBLEM IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF PEOPLE. THE PROBLEM CAN BE SEEN ON FORUMS AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS. THIS PROBLEM SEEMS TO AFFECTS NEW CARS, BASE MODELS, PUSH BUTTONS, V6'S ETC. I THINK THE STARTER SHOULD BE RECALLED BECAUSE MANY PEOPLE ARE BEING FORCED TO REPLACE STARTERS THAT THE DEALER SEEMED TO KNOW WAS BAD.

MY 2013 ACCORD IS HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE PUSH START BUTTON. THREE SEPARATE TIMES IN ONE WEEK OUR CAR HAD TROUBLE STARTING. IT WOULD MAKE A SOUND OF HESITATION BEFORE STARTING FOR 3-5 SECONDS. WE HAD THE BATTERY REPLACED THIS PAST WINTER. WE TOOK THE CAR TO OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER FOR A CHECK ON THE ELECTRICAL AND STARTING SYSTEMS. THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. WE MIGHT HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE CAR TO NOT START IN ORDER FOR HONDA TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOP, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BECAME STUCK AND THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO STOP THE FAILURE BY PULLING ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL BY HAND. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP. MY CAR STARTED PULLING TO THE LEFT. THEN IT BECAME EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT. I PULLED INTO A FAST FOOD PARKING LOT, AND WHEN I TURNED LOOSE OF THE WHEEL, IT SPUN TO THE LEFT. I CONTINUED TO MY DESTINATION WITH BOTH HANDS TIGHT ON THE WHEEL, SCARED TO EVEN CHANGE LANES. I HAD CALLED AHEAD FOR AN APPOINTMENT WITH A WHEEL ALIGNMENT SHOP. WHEN I GOT THERE, THEY PUT THE CAR ON A HYDRAULIC LIFT, UP SEVERAL FEET IN THE AIR, TURNED THE KEY ON, AND TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL. THE WHEEL AND THE TIRES WERE SPINNING TO THE LEFT. THEY HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS WRONG. I CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THERE THAT THEY HAD NO IDEA, AND HAD TO CALL HONDA. THEY DETERMINED THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WAS FAULTY, AND HAD TO REPLACE THE POWER STEERING GEAR ASSEMBLY. EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY (I HAD 37,000 MILES ON IT), HONDA PAID FOR ALL BUT $182 OF THE COST. I WAS TOLD IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A $2,100 REPAIR.

KEYLESS FOB HAS TWO TIMES OPENED ALL FOUR WINDOWS AND SUN ROOF WHILE IN MY PANTS POCKET A COUPLE OF INCHES. THE LAST TIME ON APRIL 11, 2016 IT RAINED TWO INCHES AND THE CAR WAS LEFT IN THE RAIN. THE FOLLOWING MORNING THE CAR WOULD NOT START . THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH WERE FLICKERING LIKE CRAZY. YOU CAN NOT TELL THE SUN ROOF IS OPEN BECAUSE THE SLIDING COVER IS CLOSED. I THINK HONDA SHOULD REMOVE THIS FEATURE THAT ALLOWS YOU TO OPEN THE SUNROOF FROM PRESSING A BUTTON FROM YOUR FOB. THIS COST ME A LOT OF MONEY AND I DIDN'T EVEN KNOW THE SUN ROOF WAS LEFT OPEN.

STARTER WENT OFF. CAR WAS NOT STARTING IMMEDIATELY. IT WAS TAKING LONG TIME TO START AFTER TRIED SEVERAL TIME. MECHANIC REPLACED THE NEW STARTER COST $750.00 LABOR AND PARTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 70 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL SEIZED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING BOX FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 38,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON SINCE THE CAR HIT EXACTLY 60,000 MILES. CODE SAID IT IS RELATED TO THE FUEL SYSTEM. CHANGED THE SENSOR; LIGHT WAS OFF AND NOW BACK ON. CONTINUOUSLY OCCURS WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREETS. ALL GAUGES ARE FINE AND CAR IS MAINTAINING GAS MILEAGE. COULD IT BE THAT THE O-RING AND FUEL TANK ARE ONLY SLIGHTLY BETTER THAN THAT ON THE ORIGINAL 2013 HONDA ACCORDS (BUILT WITH FAULTY FUEL TANKS) CAUSING THE O RING TO WEAR OUT? HOW CAN THIS BE CHECKED. ALSO JUST WANT TO NOTE THAT MY WIFE HAD A 2009 PILOT THAT KEPT NEEDED SPARK PLUGS AND HAD EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION--SHE GOT RID OF THE CAR BECAUSE SHE KEPT ARGUING THAT SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE WITH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP--HONDA ADMITTED TO THE PROBLEM AND EXTENDED THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY RIGHT AFTER SHE GOT RID OF THE CAR.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON CITY STREETS, THE POWER STEERING FAILS, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE VEHICLE AND REQUIRES A GREAT AMOUNT OF EFFORT TO CONTROL THE STEERING. A POWER STEERING MESSAGE APPEARS ON THE DASHBOARD. AFTER STOPPING THE VEHICLE AND SHUTTING IT DOWN, THEN RESTARTING IT, SEEMS TO TENTATIVELY CORRECT IT.THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN THREE DAYS. I AM VERY CONCERNED WITH OUR SAFETY IN DRIVING THIS CAR!

IN NOVEMBER 2015 I PARKED MY CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY. WENT OUT AN HOUR LATER AND IT WOULDN'T START. JUMPED THE CAR AND IT DROVE FINE. IN JANARY 2016 I PULLED UP TO GET GAS. AFTER FUELING THE CAR WOULDN'T START. HAD TO PUSH MY CAR OUT OF THE WAY AND HAVE SOMEONE JUMP IT AGAIN. HAD BATTERY TESTED AT TWO DIFFERENT SHOPS AND IT IS FINE. CAME HOME FROM WORK TONIGHT APRIL 1, 2016. WENT TO LEAVE TWO HOURS LATER AND IT WON'T START AGAIN.

INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH THE CAR NOT STARTING. ONCE YOU STICK THE KEY IN THE INGNITION AND TURN THE KEY THE CAR WILL NOT START. I HAVE FULL POWER TO ALL THE ELECTRONIC IN THE CAR BUT THE CAR WILL NOT START. I HAVE TO TURN THE KEY MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE CAR TO START. THE CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT AND I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY BUT THE PROBLEM PERSIST

I PARKED MY CAR IN OUR HOME GARAGE AFTER DRIVING 15-20 MILES. AN HOUR LATER, WHEN I TRIED TO TAKE THE CAR OUT, AT IGNITION IT JUST REFUSED TO START. I GOT MANY DASHBOARD CHATTERING INDICATORS ON BUT NO ENGINE CRANKING. TRIED COUPLE OF TIMES BUT SAME RESULTS. CHECKED HEAD LIGHTS AND FOUND THEM BRIGHT AND OK INDICATING NO POSSIBLE BATTERY ISSUE. THEN I JUMP STARTED FROM OUR OTHER CAR PARKED NEXT TO IT. IT STARTED ALMOST IMMEDIATELY. BUT THE DASHBOARD INDICATORS REMAINED 'ON'. I USED VEHICLE SETTING MENU AND SELECTED FACTORY DEFAULT RESET. BUT THE INDICATORS REMAINED 'ON'. I TOOK THE CAR FOR A SHORT DRIVE. AS SOON AS I DROVE SOME 15-20 FEET, THE INDICATORS WENT OFF. I DROVE FOR SOME TIME AND TRIED TO STOP THE ENGINE AND RESTART IT COUPLE TIMES WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS. IN MY CASE, I WAS FORTUNATE TO HAVE THIS HAPPENED AT HOME GARAGE AND NOT MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. BUT WHEN I TRIED TO RESEARCH ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND MANY SUCH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS AND SOME OF THEM WERE INDICATING POSSIBLE 'BAD' STARTER ISSUE WHICH REQUIRED $800-1000 FOR THE REPLACEMENT AND REPAIRS. MY CAR IS AROUND 18 MONTHS OLD WITH CLEAN RECORDS OF REGULAR MAINTENANCE. THE CAR HAS LOGGED AROUND 32,400 MILES AND MAINTAINED WITH CARE. AS A CONCERNED OWNER, AFTER READING THOSE ONLINE COMPLAINTS AND REPORTS, I THOUGHT OF SHARING MY ISSUE HERE AND RECORD IT TOO. I SEE THERE ARE ENOUGH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS TO ARRIVE AT THERE COULD BE A FAULTY COMPONENT (MAY BE STARTER OR SOMETHING ELSE, I AM NOT AN EXPERT) WHICH MIGHT

I BOUGHT MY 2013 ACCORD SPORT NEW. ALMOST IMMEDIATELY I NOTICED THAT AFTER I START IT AND PUT IT IN DRIVE, IT WOULD NOT GO ANYWHERE. SLIGHT PRESS OF THE ACCELERATION PEDAL AND SLOWLY IT WOULD MOVE FORWARD, HOWEVER WITHIN APPROXIMATELY A MINUTE THE ACCELERATION PEDAL PRESS AND THE VEHICLE MOVING WOULD WORK AS THEY SHOULD. SINCE I ONLY CONSIDERED THIS AN INCONVENIENCE, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS NOT " NORMAL", I IGNORED THE ISSUE. IN MID 2014, WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, IN LOS ANGELES, THE VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND THE DASHBOARD WENT COMPLETELY OUT, ONLY TO FLICKER BACK TO LIFE WITHIN THE NEXT TWO SECONDS. A FEW MONTHS AFTER, WITH NO WARNING AND FOR NO APPARENT REASON, WHILE I ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, I DISCOVERED IT TO BE COMPLETELY DEAD. NO CLICKS, NO FLICKERING LIGHTS. I REPLACED THE BATTERY AT ABOUT 25K MILES. OVER THE NEXT YEAR, THE SUDDEN ELECTRICAL SHORT, WHERE THE DASHBOARD ELECTRONICS AND EVERYTHING ELECTRICAL ON THE CAR WOULD TURN OFF SUDDENLY, CONTINUED. EVERY TWO MONTHS ON AVERAGE I WOULD EXPERIENCE AN EPISODE, SOME WHILE DRIVING, SOME WHEN I WAS STATIONARY, WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING FOR COUPLE OF MINUTES. BEGINNING OF 2016, I ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, AGAIN NO SIGN OF LIFE, OUT OF THE BLUE. I JUMP STARTED IT, HAD IT CHECKED, NO APPARENT PROBLEMS OR ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY. END OF MARCH 2016, SAME PROBLEM. I WENT TO START THE VEHICLE, IT TURNED THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS ON, THEN IT DIED...NO CLICKS, NO LIGHTS FLICKERING. I HAD IT CHECKED BY A MECHANIC, COULD
