Since i bought my 2013 honda accord ex-l in january 2013, i have had issues with stereo system. at times, the stereo will not turn on or it will turn on but the display screen is blank. other times, "no disc" appears on the display when i turn the car on. i don't listen to cds, therefore, i never changed the source to play a cd. i only listen to xm. the dealer stated they cannot do anything to fix unless i bring the car in while the issue is happening. the issue is intermittent and never happens while near a dealer. i did receive a recall in april 2013 and took my car in for the stereo software update. did not solve my issues. *tr
My new 2013 accord has a serious safety issue with the user interface to the phone and music. the phone book, xm, and usb music are displayed in long lists. my 32 gb drive has 300 albums. my full collection has many more. the problem is that there is no fast way to scroll these lists. the driver must reach to the furthest-right knob and twist. this moves the list down one item. so selecting any list item while driving takes the driver's eyes off the road, causes bodily contortions (it is a long reach), and makes i impossible to actually scroll more than a few dozen places down the list. *tr
