Recently reported ENGINE problems on 2010 Honda Accord

In the past 2 years i have replaced the spark plugs and ignition coils twice! i have had to top off my oil without having oil leakage. i have replaced my battery twice, and now need to replace my alternator. apparently, there is a correlation between the oil and electrical issues.. it must be getting past pistons somehow. this is an issue that manufacturer should have addressed!

I turned on my car and the engine was making a rough sputtering sound and when i started driving, it felt like it was going to cut off. this has happened several times before. the first time it hapened i took it to the dealer and they addressed it for free. the second time i paid a couple hundred dollars to have piston(s) replaced and have it cleaned out. one of the service men at the dealer said the next time this happens it would cost thousands of dollars to fix. that was 3-4 months ago and now it is doing the same thing again. in the approximately 5 years i have owned this car i have replaced 2 alternators and at least 2 batteries. the dealer says that this car prematurely burns off the oil in the engine. it is poor oil consumption. i was trying to top off the oil regularly in between oil changes but nothing has helped this. please have honda issue a recall on this make and model

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda accord. while driving 65 mph, the vehicle hesitated to accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. also, the check engine warning indicator illuminated. the following day, the vehicle was towed to autonation honda thornton road (located at 1979 thornton rd, lithia spring, ga 30122, (770) 674-6078) where it was diagnosed that the spark plug was misfiring and needed to be replaced. also, a computer reset was needed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided case number: 09633930. the approximate failure mileage was 90,000.

Takata recall..i've had a problem with the engine light flashing and vsa light. the first time it happened i was on busy i95 with my infant in the car needless to say i was afraid and i call honda immediately and took it to honda in de they said nothing was wrong, the second time it also happened on the road i returned to honda and they suggested that it was low on oil which was strange because i only get oil changes from honda, the third time it happened while driving on the highway i returned the car back to honda and they suggested that it was the engine and it was leaking oil and the cost would be $3500. this has happened to a few honda owners and i feel it should be recalled because this is a obvious problem with the oil leaking and engine and before there is a serious injury because of this problem it should be recalled immediately

Had to replace three ignition coils within about eight months. then, one of the ones had been replaced (#1 cylinder), developed a problem. mech tech informed/showed me that plug had fouled - due to possible piston ring problem. learned from cars.com that there was a problem with piston rings of 2008 - 2012 accords and honda had offered a special extended warranty to correct them. i was never notified by honda of this corrective action, ergo i missed the eight years and unlimited mileage from the original vehicle-in-service date deadline (car was purchased in june 2010). to replace the engine would cost more than the car is worth. national highway traffic safety administration at 888-327-4236. reference tsb no. 13-078. do i have any recourse at all? is there anything that i can do?

The car burns a lot of engine oil. there are no leaks, no issues but its burning so quickly that i have to put 1 liter of oil every 2000-3000 miles. the mechanics say its a factory issue as almost every car of 8th generation do that.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda accord. the contact stated that the service engine indicator illuminated twice in the last year. the contact had the spark plugs replaced twice, but the engine still consumed a large amount of oil. the dealer (tom kadlec honda, 3333 wilder rd nw, rochester, mn 55901, (507) 281-2500) was contacted and stated that they would investigate the results of a month long oil consumption test based on 1,000 miles. the dealer was in the process of analyzing the results. the manufacturer had not been contacted. the failure mileage was 112,857.

Excessive oil burning - vehicle has less than 100k miles is burning oil. no dipstick reading for oil in engine (for every 3,000 miles driven). car pings and no or little power from engine due to oil loss. dealer test stated 1/2qt of oil used every 1,000 miles. typical honda oil change is every, 7,500 miles (per their manual) - if waited that long no oil would be in engine. dangerous and significant issue - honda stated it will not fix and stated 1/2 qt of oil burned every 1,000 miles is not excessive or significant !! - from a car owner, it is very significant. compound this with the months and months wait for the takata recall for air bags issue - the honda 2010 crv has significant issues. i have a co-worker that has a 2010 acura with 300,000 miles and oil loss issues.

October 2017-check engine light was flashing while in motion on a highway. vehicle was shaking and hard to drive, pulled over to safe area. unable to move vehicle once ignition was turned off and on. towed to nearest dealer. recall was preformed; computer update and spark plugs were replaced. may 2010-check engine light came on once ignition turned on. vehicle was taken for diagnostics and air bag recall. while driving vehicle kicked while on the freeway. honda states oil was 3 quarts too low. oil indicator was at 30% and never warranted low oil. oil was added and i was instructed to come back once i have driven 1000 miles to see if engine is burning or consuming too much oil. if so, service stated an engine replacement may be needed and could be costly.

Our engine suffered a massive engine failure due to high oil consumption issue. the car lost all of its oil and there was absolutely no indication of such situation. i opened a case with honda care, but as expected, they denied any responsibility even though these vehicles are impacted with such issue and the fact that i received a service bulletin. i will never buy another honda.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 honda accord. the contact stated that every week, one quart of oil needed to be added to the vehicle. the contact mentioned that the vehicle consumed an abnormal amount of oil. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for diagnostic testing or repairs. the manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 38,000.

On a road trip to mass, check engine light blinks and car runs poorly. stop at the nearest honda, garber honda in rochester, ny. first made aware of recall. garber says repair is made and is covered under recall program. i was advised to return if problem comes back and told i had unlimited miles to do so. car continues to consume oil. i was unaware that the consumption was part of the extended warranty campaign regarding the number 2 cylinder. 26 october - 9 november 2018 check engine light starts to blink and car runs poorly. on the road i take it to the nearest honda, lia honda of williamsville, ny. number 2 plug fouled again. i was told the warranty campaign had ended and i had to bring in all the maintenance records to qualify for a 'good will' repair. i fax and called northtown but records from previous years not available due to dealership buyout. i paid to have spark plug replaced. i spent 3 weeks exchanging emails with adrian bonsey at lia to resolve the issue. in my final ...

Excessive oil consumption at 111, 000 miles. dipstick reads empty after 4 months and 7,000 miles.

Two issues i am having that tons of people online have complained about. one issue is the variable timing solenoid. at startup the vehicle makes a loud rattling noise for about 5 seconds. the other issue is the exterior weather strip is allowing water to leak into my car.

Excessive oil consumption, burning oil, while in motion.
