2016 Honda Accord complaints

A RECALL WAS ISSUED REGARDING THE BATTERY MANAGEMENT SENSOR AND BATTERY IS OUT AT 46K MILES. HOW DO WE KNOW THAT THE BATTERY MANAGEMENT SENSOR DIDN'T TAKE OUT THE BATTERY ALSO SINCE IS IT MANAGING THE BATTERY? ALSO, HALF OF THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ON THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLIGHT DECIDE TO GO OUT TOO. IF YOU WEB SEARCH THESE ISSUES, THESE ARE COMMON ISSUE FOR THE HONDA ACCORD. I GUESS HONDA IS ONLY KNOWN TO BE RELIABLE UNTIL THE WARRANTY PERIOD IS OVER.

A PORTION OF THE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRL) IMMEDIATELY BELOW THE HEADLIGHTS ON THE DRIVER SIDE HAS BURNED OUT. SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON A CAR WITH ONLY 52K MILES.

TAKATA RECALL THE FRAME IS CORRODED, THE SUSPENSION VEERS TO THE LEFT, WINDSHIELD WIPERS DO NOT PROVIDE VISABILITY, EMISSION PROBLEMS, TRANSMISSION PROBLEMS, FRONT END ALIGNMENT OFF, DOES NOT HAVE DOOR LOCK, DOES NOT ACCELERATE PAST 60, CAR SHAKES

AT 20,000 MILES ON VEHICLE BRIDGESTONE OEM TIRES BECAME UNSAFE AS STEEL BELTS WERE WARPED, AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE? BRIDGESTONE WHEN CONTACTED STATED THEIR POLICY IS NO WARRANTY ON TIRES UNLESS TREAD IS DOWN TO 4/32 INCH. TIRES STILL HAD 8/32 IN TREAD LEFT. THESE TIRES ARE A HAZARD WAITING TO HAPPEN. HONDA WOULD NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE.

I WAS PARKING MY 2016 HONDA ACCORD IN A SHOPPING CENTER. AS I WAS SLOWLY INCHING FORWARD TO PARK, THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN (WITHOUT ME PUSHING THE ACCELERATOR) AND WENT FORWARD SO FAST IT WENT OVER A RETAINING WALL THAT SEPARATED US FROM AN ADJOINING SHOPPING CENTER AND DROPPED ABOUT 4-5 FT DOWN INTO THAT ADJOINING PARKING LOT. THE AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND CAUSED US INJURY. THE CAR IS MOST LIKELY TOTALED AT THIS POINT (WAITING TO FIND OUT FROM MY ADJUSTOR). THE ACCELERATION WAS SUDDEN AND EXTREME. I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO HIT THE BRAKES. IT WAS A MATTER OF A SPLIT SECOND BEFORE WE WERE THROWN INTO THE OTHER PARKING LOT. (ATTACHING A PICTURE SO THE SCENE OF THE ACCIDENT MAKES SENSE) NOTE: I DO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE CAR RIGHT NOW SO I AM GUESSING MY MILEAGE BECAUSE THERE WAS NOT AN OPTION TO INDICATE "UNKNOWN" ON THE FORM.

A TIRE OF MY 2016 HONDA ACCORD EXL BLEW WHILE DRIVING ON I-95 WITHOUT HITTING ANYTHING. THE TIRE SPECIFICS: (215/55 R17 ASSURANCE FUEL FLEX). I HAD TO REPLACE THE TIRE AT MY EXPENSE.

SECOND TIME ON THE LAST FOUR DAYS THAT MY CAR WILL NOT START. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AT EH HONDA AUTONATION IN COSTA MESA CA AND THEY TOLD ME THAT EVERYTHING CHECKED OUT FINE. I WAS WORKING IN LOS ANGELES FOUR DAYS LATER AND ONCE AGAIN THE CAR WOULDN'T START. THIS IS AFTER DRIVING A FEW SHORT DISTANCES AND THEN THE CAR JUST WONT TURN OVER. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE CAR JUMPED TWICE IN THE LAST FOUR DAYS. THIS IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE OF WHERE I WORK AND I CANNOT LET MY WIFE DRIVE THE CAR DUE TO NOT HAVING THE CONFIDENCE THAT THE CAR WILL START, ESPECIALLY IF SHE HAS THE KIDS WITH HER. I WILL BE TAKING IT IN AGAIN ON MONDAY AND SEE WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY. I HAVE READ THAT THERE ARE PARTS DEALING WITH THE BATTERY THAT CAN NOT ONLY CAUSE STARTING ISSUES, BUT SHORTS IN THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I UNDERSTAND THAT PROBLEMS OCCUR, BUT THE FACT THAT THIS IS THE SECOND TIME IN FOUR DAYS I STARTING TO WONDER IF HONDA IS NOW SELLING VEHICLES OFF THEIR NAME AND NOT THEIR QUALITY. NOT WILLING TO GIVE UP ON THEM JUST YET, BUT IT WILL DEPEND ON WHAT THEY DO TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT ON A CLEAR DAY, FULL VISIBILITY, THERE WAS A CAR SEVERAL CAR LENGTHS AHEAD OF US TURNING RIGHT. IT CLEARED THE WAY WITHOUT US NEEDING TO BREAK. WE WERE TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MPH AT AROUND 2PM. OUR VEHICLE THOUGHT THERE WAS STILL A HAZARD IN THE ROAD. WE HAVE A SENSING PACKAGE IN THE VEHICLE, WHICH CAUSED OUR CAR TO COME TO A FULL AND COMPLETE STOP, ENGAGING THE SEAT BELTS AS WELL. WE HAVE FULL VIDEO EVIDENCE OF THE INCIDENT FROM A THIRD PARTY DASH CAM. WE WERE ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP THINKING THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT, IT WAS RETURNED, SAYING THAT THE CAR WORKED AS INTENDED. HAVING BEEN IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME, AND I DISAGREE, AND AM NOW EXTREMELY AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR. WHILE I HAVE NO PICTURES, I HAVE FULL VIDEO OF THE INCIDENT, AND WILL GLADLY PROVIDE IT UPON REQUEST.

TAKATA RECALL

#1 ISSUE ON SEP 23 2017 WE WERE GOING DOWN AN INCLINE, IN THE CITY, APPLYING THE BRAKES AND GOING ABOUT 25MPH WHEN THE ENGINE ACCELERATED. WE WERE APPROACHING A STOP SIGN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION. HE APPLIED THE BRAKES HARDER BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP. AFTER THE INITIAL SHOCK MY HUSBAND THOUGHT TO PUT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND WE WERE ABLE TO STOP. WE TOOK OUR CAR INTO OUR HONDA DEALER. THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY STATED THE CAR DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM. HONDA HAD OUR CAR FOR 2 WEEKS AND DROVE 54MILES WITHOUT INCIDENT. WE CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA AND GOT A CASE NUMBER. THEY CALLED US TO TELL US THEY HAD CONTACTED OUR HONDA DEALER AND THEY AGREED NOTHING WAS FOUND SO OUR CAR DID NOT HAVE A PROBLEM. #2 ISSUE THE FIRST WEEK AFTER WE PURCHASED OUR HONDA IN JANUARY 2016 THE COMPASS WENT OUT. HONDA SERVICE PUT IN A NEW SENDING UNIT. IN SEP 2017 THE COMPASS AND FUEL MPG READOUT ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT BLANK. THIS HAPPENED ALONG WITH THE ACCELERATION PROBLEM THAT WE STATED ABOVE.. WE TOOK IT INTO FOR REPAIR AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE SO THEY WOULD NOT DO ANY REPLACEMENT OR REPAIR. THEN, ON OCT 24TH THE COMPASS AND THE RADIO STOPPED WORKING. THE RADIO CAME BACK ON WITHIN A MINUTE, BUT THE COMPASS DID NOT WORK ACCURATELY AGAIN FOR SEVERAL HOURS. WE HAVE SEND AN EMAIL TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AND ARE WAITING FOR A REPLY. OUR CAR HAS 16,000 MILES ON IT..

WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, FIRST TIME FOR THE DAY, TOP AND BOTTOM CENTER DISPLAY TOUCH SCREENS WENT BLACK AND THERE IS NO FUNCTIONALITY OF ANY OF THE ASSOCIATED FUNCTIONS: NO NAVIGATION, NO BLUE TOOTH, NO BACK-UP CAMERA, NO SIDE VIEW CAMERA WHEN TURNING. THIS IS A REPEATED ISSUE. DOES NOT RESET.

I HAVE A 2016 HONDA ACCORD SPORT THAT I BOUGHT BRAND NEW. A FRIEND HAD NOTICED THAT THE DRIVER-SIDE'S LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT WAS ONLY HALF-LIT. I TOOK IT TO MY HONDA DEALER AND IT WAS IMMEDIATELY NOTICEABLE THAT THEY WERE FAMILIAR WITH THE PROBLEM AND IMMEDIATELY SAID IT WAS COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. MY CAR HAS CLOCKED 42,200 MILES AND WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. WHILE AT THE DEALERSHIP WAITING ON MY CAR I NOTICED TWO OTHER HONDA ACCORD WITH THE SAME IDENTICAL PROBLEM; DRIVER-SIDE'S LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT WAS ONLY HALF-LIT. THEY HAVE TO ORDER AN ENTIRE HEADLIGHT UNIT; NOT JUST THE LED STRIP PORTION AND IT WILL COST OVER $500. THIS IS A MATTER OF A FAULTY AND CHEAP LED LIGHTING SYSTEM AND IS A HAZARD FOR DRIVING AT NIGHT.

LED LIGHTS ARE OUT AGAIN SINCE MY CAR REACH 45000 MILES IT NO LONGER COVERED. I HAD MY CAR SINCE FEB. 2017 IT HAD 21000 MILES WITHIN 8 MOS ITS SHOWS I PUT 30000 MILES ON IT. I HAVE 5 OIL CHANGES SINCE FEB. SOMETHING IS NOT RIGHT WITH THIS MOTOR I LIVE IN MS AND HAVE DROVE TO TEXAS MAYBE 3 TIMES.

WHEN I TURN THE DEFROSTER ON THE RADIO TURNS TO STATIC. ENGINE THEN REVS UP EXTREMELY HIGH. THE VEHICLE WILL DO THIS STATIONARY OR MOVING AND IN A DRIVEWAY, ON A HIGHWAY AND IN THE CITY AND WHILE TURNING. IT WAS REAR ENDED JULY 24, 2017 AT APPROXIMATELY 3:30 PM WITH ROUGHLY $1,000 IN DAMAGES.

LED DAYTIME LIGHTS /REPLACED DRIVER SIDE AT 17,000 MILES NOW PASSENGER SIDE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT 27,000 MILES THIS ITEM COST ALONE IS $1300 EACH MAKING IT $2600 TO REPLACE THIS AMOUNT DOES NOT INCLUDE LABOR. I BELIEVE HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THE LED LIGHTS AND REPLACE... THIS WILL NOT BE FAIR TO OWNERS OF THIS MODEL ONCE THEY REACH 36,000 MILES AND THE WARRANTY IS NOW VOID.....

STRONG GASOLINE SMELL INSIDE PASSENGER CABIN. NAUSEATING, TROUBLE BREATHING.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR UNDER 25 MPH ON LOCAL ROAD WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND WENT OFF ROAD CAUSING SEVER DAMAGE TO BOTH WHEELS AND UNDERCARRIAGE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. THE CONTACT CALLED AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BULB NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND THE CONTACT WOULD HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,300. UPDATED 11/07/17*LJ UPDATED 11/13/2017*JS

I PUSHED ON BRAKES AND IT ACCELERATED REAL FAST I TURN TO RIGHT AND IT HIT A FENCE THEN FENCE ON OTHER SIDE OF ROAD I MADE THIS TURN 3 OR 4 TIMES AND THEN IT WENT THRU A GATE AND HIT THE BACK FENCE AND THE CAR STILL WAS TRYING TO GO CUT OFF KEY.

"TAKATA RECALL" LETTER RECEIVED FROM HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION , TORRANCE, CA. IN REFERENCE TO BATTERY SENSOR CASE MOUNTED ON TOP THE 12V BATTERY, COULD CAUSE ELECTRIC SHOT AND A FIRE. I HAVE NEVER BEEN HAPPY WITH MY HONDA BECAUSE OF THE ROAD NOISE. TAKEN THE CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS FINALLY ADVISED IT WAS A DEFECT AND COULD NOT BE FIXED. I PAID CASH AND WILL NEVER BUY A HONDA AGAIN. I WISH I COULD RETURN IT. I CANNOT HEAR ANYONE IN THE BACK SEAT WHILE DRIVING

TAKATA RECALL WAS AGGRESSIVELY INJURED BY THE AIR BAG I FEEL THAT SHOULD NOT OF HAPPENED AND I FEEL IT ALSO SHOULD NOT OF GONE OFF THE ACCIDENT WAS MINOR

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. 2016 HONDA ACCORD, 9200 MILES. ON 7/14/17 I PULLED INTO THE PARKING LOT OF MY LOCAL DRUGSTORE. I LOCATED A PARKING SPOT, AND WAS SLOWLY TURNING RIGHT TO PULL INTO THE PARKING SPACE WHEN MY ENGINE REVVED, THE CAR ACCELERATED, UP OVER THE CONCRETE CURB, OVER BIKE RACK AND INTO THE SIDE OF THE BRICK BUILDING. BY THIS TIME, BOTH OF MY FEET WERE ON THE BRAKE BUT THE CAR DID NOT STOP. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. I TURNED THE CAR OFF. POLICE WERE CALLED AND AN ACCIDENT REPORT WAS TAKEN. I CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY ASSIGNED ME A CASE MANAGER, WHO RETURNED MY CALL AND TOOK ALL INFORMATION. HONDA SENT A FIELD REPRESENTATIVE TO EXAMINE THE CAR AT THE BODY SHOP. AFTER THIS THE CASE MANAGER CALLED ME TO LET ME KNOW HONDA FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, FOLLOWED BY A LETTER TO CONFIRM THAT. MY FOOT WAS NOT IN THE ACCELERATOR AT THE TIME OF THE CRASH. I HAVE SUPPORTING DOCUMENTS, ACCIDENT REPORT, REPAIR BILL, MEDICAL BILLS. I WILL PROVIDE THESE TO YOU BY MAIL OR FAX. I CANNOT SEEM TO UPLOAD ON THE MOBILE APPLICATION.

I AM UNABLE TO START MY CAR AFTER IT SITS FOR TEN DAYS TO TWO WEEKS OR MORE. THE BATTERY GOES DEAD AND MY FAMILY AND I ARE LEFT POTENTIALLY STRANDED. MY WIFE AND I TRAVEL FREQUENTLY AND RETURN TO A CAR THAT WON'T START DUE TO A PARASITIC DRAW ON THE BATTERY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS YOU CAN IMAGINE FLYING HOME, TAKING THE BUS TO THE PARKING LOT AT THE AIRPORT AT 11:00 PM, GOING TO YOUR CAR AND FINDING A DEAD BATTERY WHICH PUTS OUR SAFETY IN PERIL. I TOOK MY CAR TO ONEIL HONDA IN OVERLAND PARK, KANSAS. THEY CHARGED THE BATTERY AND CHECKED IT OUT AND TOLD ME THAT EVERYTHING IS FINE. I ASKED ABOUT WHY THE BATTERY WENT DEAD AND THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NOW NORMAL WITH THE NEW HONDA ACCORDS DUE TO THE PARASITIC DRAW ON THE BATTERY WHEN THE CAR ISN'T RUNNING WHICH ULTIMATELY DRAINS THE BATTERY TO A POINT WHERE IT WON'T START. HAVING BEEN AN AUTO MECHANIC IN MY YOUNGER DAYS I COULDN'T BELIEVE MY EARS. I CALLED ANOTHER HONDA DEALER'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT IN THE KANSAS CITY AREA AND RECEIVED THE SAME COMMENT. THEN I PHONED THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN SAN ANTONIO WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND AGAIN, WAS PROVIDED THE SAME INFORMATION.... "THIS IS NOW WHAT I CAN EXPECT ON MY NEW ACCORD, IF IT SITS FOR TEN DAYS OR TWO WEEKS THEN THE BATTERY WILL DIE". THE PARASITIC DRAW ON THE BATTERY IS PUTTING MY FAMILY AND I IN AN UNSAFE SITUATION AND I ASKED THAT YOU INTERVENE. I TRIED TO ADDRESS THIS WITH HONDA AMERICA BUT WAS NOT SUCCESSFUL WITH THE AGENT ON THE PHONE. I EVEN ASKED HER TO PICK A DEALER

MY SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED/SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. NOTHING HIT IT; IT JUST SHATTERED. I ASSUME IT'S DUE TO THE HEAT.

IGNITION KEY HAS BEEN HARD TO INSERT AND START THE CAR SINCE WE'VE HAD IT. HAD 12K MILES ON IT WHEN PURCHASED. KEY COULD NOT BE REMOVED EXCEPT BY A LOCKSMITH AND COULD NOT START THE CAR. IGNITION THINKS A KEY IS STILL IN IT EVEN THOUGH IT HAS BEEN REMOVED. TAKING IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPLACEMENT.

LED HEADLIGHT RUNNING LIGHTS GO OUT AFTER 1 YEAR. BOTH HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES AT DEALERSHIP. BASED EMAILS OTHER HONDAS TOURING MODELS HAVE HAD SAME ISSUE CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE HEAT SINK IN THE HEADLIGHT.

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND WITHOUT ANY INDICATION OF TROUBLE THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILED. CAR IS EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN WITHOUT THIS. SHE BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. SINCE WE HAD TO GET TO AN EXIT I TOOK OVER. THE STEERING TAKES A LOT OF MUSCLE TO TURN THE VEHICLE BECAUSE OF THE SMALL STEERING WHEEL. I AM GLAD I WAS WITH HER. I RESEARCHED AND FOUND HONDA HAD A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS IN 2013. THEY GAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY OF 100,000 MILES TO THESE VEHICLES. I EXPECT THE SAME WARRANTY EXTENSION. I HAVE OWNED HONDAS SINCE 1977 AND MANY I HAVE DRIVEN WELL BEYOND 190,000 MILES WITHOUT A PROBLEM LIKE THIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE UNINTENTIONALLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE CONTACTS RESIDENCE. THE AIR BAGS DID DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED AWAY BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 3,416. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

YOUR BRAKES FAILED AND AIR BAGS TOO

THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE ACCELERATION OF THE VEHICLE. IT TENDS TO AT TIMES TO JUST CUT OUT ACCELERATING. WHEN THAT HAPPENS I TRY TO PRESS THE PEDAL AGAIN, NADA, MILLISECONDS PASS AND THE ACCELERATOR WILL TAKE OFF AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. IT'S SCARY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG. THE TECH TOLD ME THAT I HAVE TO GET USED TO THE CVT. THIS GENERALLY HAPPENS WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT. IT HAPPENED ONE TIME WHILE TAKING OFF FROM A DEAD STOP. WHILE PLACING THE CAR IN GEAR, NADA.

FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS WHAT LOOK LIKE HARD WATER SPOTS AND IN THE SUNLIGHT YOU CANNOT HARDLY SEE OUT. THE DEALER HAS SAID THEY ACID CLEANED THIS AND SOME OF IT WAS REMOVED. NOW IT HAS RETURNED MAKING DRIVING INTO THE SUN IMPOSSIBLE. CAR IS ALWAYS IN GARAGE AND IT DOES NOT RAIN IN ALBUQUERQUE SO IT IS SOME KIND OF DEFECT IN THE WINDSHIELD GLASS. I WILL ASK THE IT BE REPLACED THIS TRIP TO DEALER AS ONLY 9500 MILES.

BLUETOOTH DEFECT. SINCE NEW PURCHASE IN 2016 VEHICLE BLUETOOTH IS NOT COMPATIBLE FOR I PHONE 7 MAKING THE HANDS FREE FUNCTION UN USABLE AND A VERY BAD DISTRACTION WHEN DRIVING. THE DEALER REACTION TO ACKNOWLEDGED PROBLEM WAS "NOTHING WE CAN DO TILL HONDA UPDATES TECH KNOWLEDGE. FOR WHAT EVER REASON HONDA HAS NOT UPDATED SYSTEM TO BE COMPATIBLE WITH NEWER PHONE/S. I FEAR DO TO HONDAS SLOW OR NO RESPONSE TO ISSUE A TRAGEDY FOR SOMEONE SOMEWHERE WILL BE INEVITABLE, AND IT IS A SITUATION THAT HONDA OR NHTSA SHOULD BE ABLE TO BE AVOIDED WITH A SIMPLE UPDATE ON THE ACCORD, AND FROM WHAT I READ, OTHER MODELS. IF HONDA WON'T MAKE THIS RIGHT, HOPEFULLY THE NHTSA CAN FORCE THEM TO FIX THIS POTENTIAL HAZARDOUS CONDITION.

AS I WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING SPACE THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON IT OWN. MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE GAS PEDAL AS I HAD BRAKED TO TURN LEFT INTO THE SPACE. THE CAR WENT OVER THE CONCRETE PARKING BLOCK AND HIT THE CONCRETE WALL WHICH IS ABOUT 1-2 FEET BEHIND THE BLOCK, THE IMPACT CAUSED THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY. THE WEATHER WAS CLOUDY BUT THE PAVEMENT WAS DRY. I PURCHASED THIS ACCORD USED, IN AUGUST, 2016, FROM A LOCAL HONDA/ACURA DEALER & IT HAD APPROX. 9200 MILES ON IT.. AT THE TIME OF THIS EVENT THERE WAS 16,552 MILES ON THE CAR. THE ONLY MAINTENANCE DONE WAS AN OIL CHANGE, AND OUTSIDE OF THE TMP LIGHT, NO INDICATOR LIGHTS HAD COME ON TO PROMPT ME FOR ADDITIONAL MAINTENANCE OR REPAIR. THE DAMAGE CAUSED BY THIS EVENT WAS SUFFICIENT THAT THE INSURANCE COMPANY DETERMINED THE CAR TO BE A TOTAL LOSS.

VEHICLE HAS EXPERIENCED 7 SUDDEN ACCELERATION SURGES DURING LOW SPEED DRIVING EVENTS IN WHICH THE VEHICLE IS BEING STOPPED. THE BRAKE PEDAL IS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE IS SLOWING TO A STOP WHEN IT WILL SUDDENLY, UNEXPECTEDLY AND WITHOUT WARNING SURGE FORWARD AS THE ENGINE REVS. GIVEN THE REPEATED EVENTS THE OPERATOR MUST MAINTAIN VIGILANCE WHEN STOPPING AND BE PREPARED TO MAINTAIN FIRM AND INCREASED BRAKE PRESSURE WHEN THE EVENT OCCURS. THE VEHICLE WAS EVALUATED BY HONDA AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP. NO FAULTS OR PROBLEMS WERE IDENTIFIED AND THE VEHICLE DECLARED PROBLEM FREE. THE EVENTS HAVE BEEN OCCURRING WITH INCREASING FREQUENCY SINCE THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. THE EVENTS OCCUR IN PARKING AREAS. THE FIRST EVENT CAUGHT THE OPERATOR BY SURPRISE AND RESULTED IN THE VEHICLE SURGING FORWARD AND IMPACTING A SIGN AT A CURB IN A PARKING AREA IN FRONT OF A BUILDING. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE SHOP ON MAY 11, 2017.

MY HONDA ACCORD V6 2016 , DURING RAIN TAKES IN WATER. THE VEHICLE STARTING DEVELOPING A FOUL ODOR INSIDE JUST AFTER A FEW MONTHS OF PURCHASE. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND PUDDLES OF WATER UNDER THE REAR SEATS. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO BABYLON HONDA IN NEW YORK WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM. THE DEALER KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR SEVEN DAYS SAW THE PUDDLES OF WATER, AND CONDUCTED TEST ON THE VEHICLE AND YIELDING NEGATIVE RESULTS. I WAS TOLD THEY CAN'T FIND WHERE THE VEHICLE IS I TAKING WATER FROM. IT'S BEEN A MONTH NOW AND THE VEHICLE IS STARTING TO DEVELOP THE SAME FOUL ODOR AGAIN. LET'S SEE WHAT HONDA HAS TO SAY NOW.

WHEN I STOP AND WANT TO TAKE OF FAST ACCELERATOR PEDAL DOES NOT RESPOND . I THINK THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES

WAS HIT ON MY PASSENGER SIDE, THE ONLY BAGS THAT WENT OFF WERE ON THE PASSENGERS SIDE AND THEY DID NOT INFLATE. WAS DRIVING ON A STREET WHEN ANOTHER AUTO LOST CONTROL AND WIPED OUT THE SIDE OF MY CAR.

PURCHASED 2016 ACCORD TOURING IN MAY 2016. IN APRIL 2017 THE CAR WOULD NOT START - APPEARED TO BE A BATTERY ISSUE. HAD THE HONDA ROADSIDE SERVICE COME TO THE HOUSE, THEY JUMP STARTED IT, TOLD TO LET IT RUN/DRIVE IT FOR 1/2 HOUR. DID THAT. WENT SHOPPING AND WHEN I TRIED TO START IT AGAIN ELECTRONICS WENT CRAZY, WIPERS WENT ON THEIR OWN AND THE STOP BUTTON WOULD NOT TURN OFF THE CAR. HAD IT JUMPED AGAIN BY HONDA ROADSIDE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY - SAID IT HAD A BAD CELL IN IT, SAID THERE WERE NO TECH SVC BULLETINS ON THE CAR AND SAID THERE WERE 100'S OF GROUND WIRES IN THIS CAR THAT MAY CAUSE A PROBLEM W/BATTERY PREMATURE FAILURE.

DRIVER'S SEAT IS POORLY DESIGNED. AFTER SITTING/DRIVING FOR A WHILE, LEG NUMBS....POOR LUMBER SUPPORT CAUSING BACK PAIN AND LEG NUMBNESS.

ABOUT A MONTH AGO I BEGAN HAVING INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. I TURN THE KEY TO START AND IT MAY OR MAY NOT ACTIVATE THE STARTER. NOW, THE ISSUE HAS WORSENED TO THE POINT IT MAY START ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT, OR REQUIRE 10 OR MORE ATTEMPTS BEFORE POWER TO THE STARTER IS ACHIEVED. BEING A RETIRED MECHANIC IT ACTS LIKE THERE IS A LOOSE WIRE OR GROUND AT THE STARTER. TALKING WITH HONDA, MY WARRENTY HAS EXPIRED (3 YEAR/36,000 MILE) AND THEY REQUIRE OVER $100 TO DIAGNOSIS THE ISSUE. RESEARHING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL HONDA OWNERS WITH THE EXACT ISSUE. THEY ALL STATE THAT HONDA CORRECTED THE ISSUE BY REPLACING THE STARTER. I PURCHASED MY HONDA WITH AN UNDERSTANDING OF IT TO BE A RELIABLE VEHICLE. NOW, 56,000 MILES LATER (MAJORITY ARE HIGHWAY MILES) I NEED TO REPLACE THE STARTER? THE FACT IS, I HAVE MAINTAINED FLEETS OF VEHICLES, GAS AND DIESEL, AND I FIND THE NEED TO REPLACE THE STARTER PREMATURE AND LUDICROUS! WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I HAVE READ, THERE IS NO REASON THAT THERE IS NOT AND HAS NOT BEEN A HONDA STARTER RECALL/GOOD FAITH WARRANTY FOR WHAT I WOULD CLAIM TO BECOME PREMATURALY DEFECTIVE. FURTHER MORE, IN MY OPINION THIS ELECTRICAL ISSUE COULD EVOLVE INTO A FIRE HAZARD.

I PURCHASE A 2016 HONDA ACCORD ON 10/29/2016 AND SINCE I'VE HAD MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AS WELL AS THE LIGHTING AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM!!! 1 WK AFTER PURCHASING THIS CAN ALL THE FONT LIGHTS WENT OUT ON THE CAR AS WELL AS THE PHONE SYSTEM WITH THE CONNECTION TO THE BLUTOOTH HAS A SHORTAGE THE ONLY ISSUE REPAIRED WAS THE LIGHTING ON THE FRONT HEADLIGHTS THE INSIDE LIGHTS WAS NEVER REPAIRED !!! ALSO THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS NOT STOPPING AS SHOULD HAVE BEEN PROPERLY STOPPING ON INSTANT STOP!!! I HAVE MADE SUDDEN STOPS WHICH LEAD ME TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM LOCKING UP AND THE CAR EITHER SPIRALING OUT OF CONTROL ON THE BRAKES LOCKING UP AND SLIDING A COMPLETE CAR LENGTH BEFORE COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP!!! UNTIL THIS ON DAY ON 4/07/17 ATTEMPTING. TO MAKE A COMPLETE SUDDEN STOP ONLY LEAVING ME SLIDING A CAR LENGTH PLUS SMASHING INTO THE BACK OF A PICK UP TRUCK,,, WITH THE FRONT END OF THIS 2016 HONDA ACCORD POSSIBLY TOTAL,,, I CALL THE HONDA ASSOCIATION SPEAKING TO [XXX] AND DUE TO INSURANCE NOT PAYING HONDA REFUSED TO SEND THIS INSPECTORS OUT ,,, AND PROCEEDING TO INFORM ME THAT THEY HAVE SENT A NOTICE OUT!!! THE CAR IS ONLY 4 MOTHS OLD AND HAS A NEW OWNER SO HOW IS IS POSSIBLE THAT I RECEIVED A NOTICE??? [XXX] REFUSED TO INFORM ME OF THE TYPE OF NOTICE SENT AS WELL AS WHAT THE NOTICE WAS FOR AS WELL AS WHAT ADDRESS ETC DUE TO NO INSURANCE CLAIM !!! I TRUSTED THE INTERFAITH OF HONA AND THAT THIS COMPANY WOULD NOT HAVE THIS TYPE OF UNSAFE VEHICLE TRAVELING ON ANYBODYS HIG

I WAS TRAVELING I-24 EASTBOUND ON THE FINAL LEG OF A 650 MILE TRIP. IT WAS ABOUT 8:30- 8:45 ET. I WAS PASSING THROUGH MARION COUNTY NEAR MONTEAGLE (TN) WHEN MY HEADLIGHTS DIMMED SO THAT I COULD NOT SEE. (THE HEADLIGHTS WERE IN THE "AUTO" POSITION TO COME ON AS DARKNESS DESCENDED.) WITHIN MINUTES, ALL INTERIOR DASHBOARD LIGHTS FAILED ALSO. I WAS TRAVELING AT 60 MPH THROUGH THIS VERY DANGEROUS MOUNTAIN PASS WITH NO INTERIOR OR EXTERIOR LIGHTS IN THE DARK IN AN UNLIT RURAL AREA, CARS PASSING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. I PUT ON MY FLASHERS SO THAT APPROACHING CARS COULD DETECT MY PRESENCE AND NOT RUN OVER ME. THE EMERGENCY LIGHTS APPEARED TO BE WORKING BUT I QUICKLY REALIZED AS A PICKUP TRUCK APPROACHED MY REAR END AT ABOUT 75 MPH. THAT THE DRIVER COULD NOT SEE ME. AT THE LAST SECOND, HE SWERVED INTO THE LEFT LANE. TWO MORE CARS NEARLY RAN INTO ME SO I KNEW THE FLASHERS WERE NOT WORKING EITHER. I HAD NO IDEA OF HOW FAST I WAS GOING BECAUSE I COULD NOT READ THE SPEEDOMETER. TRIED TO ADJUST THE LIGHTS WITH NO SUCCESS. NO BRIGHT LIGHTS EITHER. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO EXIT AT A RURAL PLACE WITH A FIREWORKS STORE, BUT IT WAS CLOSED. I TURNED OFF THE CAR; I WAS TERRIFIED. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE EXTERIOR LIGHTS CAME BACK ON BUT NO DASH LIGHTS. A MAN LEAVING THE STORE GAVE ME A HIGH POWER FLASHLIGHT TO PUT ON THE DASH TO ENABLE ME TO SEE THE SPEEDOMETER. I DROVE 10-12 MILES BEFORE I GOT TO LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN AND WAS ABLE TO GET A HOTEL ROOM. I DROVE TO ECONOMY H

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START POSSIBLY DUE TO ALTERNATOR OR BATTERY MALFUNCTION AFTER BEING PURCHASED FOR ONE YEAR.

THE REAR WINDOW GLASS HAS WAVE IN IT THAT MAKES VISIBILITY POOR AND THE VIEW IS DISTORTED.

I HAVE HONDA SENSORING ON MY 2016 ACCORD SPORT. I DRIVE A WINDING ROAD EVERY DAY AND WHEN I GO AROUND A CURVE THE SENSORING ACTIVATES MY BRAKING SYSTEM WHICH SLAMS THE BRAKES, IT IS VERY UNEXPECTED AND STARTLING . I TURN OFF MY SENSORING BUT EVERY SO OFTEN IT HAPPENS EVEN WITH IT OFF. ALSO THERE IS APART OF THE ROAD I DRIVE ON EVERYDAY IT CURVES BEFORE CROSSING A BRIDGE FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON THE SENSORING WILL ACTIVATE AND STEER ME TO ON COMING TRAFFIC. THE OTHER DAY I ALMOST HIT A BIG RIG. AND LIKE THE BRAKING SYSTEM IT IS NOT ALL OF THE TIME. I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT THE SENSORING IS GOING TO CAUSE ME TO CRASH. THE GOOD THING IS I CAN OVER POWER THE SYSTEM AND I AM A EXPERIENCED DRIVER. HOWEVER I AM BEGINNING TO TEACH MY CHILD TO DRIVE AND I AM AFRAID SOMETHING DEVASTATING MIGHT HAPPEN.

PURCHASED MY COUPE IN NOVEMBER 2016 BRAND NEW. I HAVE LESS THAN 8600 MILES ON IT. THE OTHER NIGHT MY CAR WENT INTO COMPLETE SHUTDOWN, COMPLETELY DEAD. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE THE MAIN FUSE. WHY WOULD THE MAIN FUSE BLOW ON BRAND NEW CAR? THAT VERY DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING. LUCKILY I WAS PULLING INTO MY MOTHER'S DRIVEWAY AND NOT ON THE HIGHWAY OR IN TRAFFIC.

THE BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED TWICE BY THE DEALERSHIP. WE ARE NOT LEAVING ANYTHING ON. COULD IT BE THE ALTERNATOR?

TRUNK OPENS BY ITSELF WITHOUT ANY INTERACTION FROM THE KEY FOB. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST 5 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS IN THE PAST YEAR OF OWNERSHIP. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF MY RESIDENCE TEMPERATURES WERE BETWEEN 40 AND 70 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT ON THE DAYS IT HAPPENED.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR WHEN SUDDENLY THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME VERY HEAVY AND IT WAS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN IT TO ANY DIRECTION. THE HYDRAULIC SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING WITHOUT ANY WARNING. I WAS TRAVELING AT VERY SLOW SPEED (20 MILES/H) ON A VERY CALM STREET. SO I COULD MANAGE TO STOP ON THE SHOULDER. I TURN OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER SOME SECONDS I TURN ON THE ENGINE AND THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED WORKING PROPERLY AGAIN. THE FACT IS THAT IF THIS HAD HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY CERTAINLY THE OUTCOME WOULD BE AN SERIOUS ACCIDENT.
