When car parks and key inside (in stationary) and when you leave the car may be around 1 minute, the door will lock itself. this would likely creates safety hazards to other vehicles if the vehicle happen to park in the middle of roadway.
Intermittent issues with starting. i hear and see a flicker on the dashboard and lights, however it doesn't start.i plug a jumper pack in and it immediately starts, as if nothing happened. this will have 5-6 times a week after running fine throughout the day. just happens surprisingly. the starter has been replaced in which the honda dealership says was the issue. there is clearly some other issue happening, maybe the electrical system but they refused to check to even help diagnose again.
Intermittent problem starting the car. at times the car would start normally after the first turn of the key. at other times it may take more than one turn of the key or as many as 7 to 10 turns of the key for the car to start. the transmission was in park at all times. before the car started, all electrical equipment such as radio, windshield, a/c, dashboard lights were working as normal. this condition has been going on for several weeks. there was no work done on the car; all electrical and engine parts the same as when the car was first purchased.
My 2015honda accord purchased new off the lot and well maintained has issues with start up system. dealer reports it is a starter failure. when foot is firmly placed on the brake and start push button is pushed the car will make one click sound and not start, it can take up to 10 attempts to start car. the display does show up. i had the battery sensor recall fixed and this did not make a difference. dealer wants over $750 to repair starter.i believe there is another issue happening causing the starter to die. honda needs to recall these starters and get down to the root cause, because thousand of others are experiencing the same starting issues with these cars. it is very sad that hondas reputation is being stained due to their negligence in correcting this issue.
Traveling in car on highway with no other cars around and sunroof suddenly exploded.
There are times when my car won't start on the first try. it some times takes 3 or 4 tries. we have checked the baterry and its working just fine. it seems like its the starter. it keeps happening more often now.
Takata recall car does not want to start suddenly, it happens after it rains usually but today it did not rain and it happened again i read reviews of others who had same problems all the dash symbols go on too it happens after i shut car off and shortly try to restart it
Horn button ( left side) on the steering will not work. depressing the horn button on the left side of the steering wheel will not activate the horn. right side is ok.
While parking car rear back up camera has a black screen..
Starter went out. replaced starter. starter began to act up again. starter out again. could possibly be a problem with a part that is connected to the starter.
Car battery issues. won't hold a charge. will not start at random weekly. just clicks even after driving for 30 mins and returning to car. took it to dealer, battery good, alternator good, starter good. 2days later happens again. especially after putting in fuel. turn car on, battery dead. ridiculous. take it back to dealer. all diagnostics good. go to work, come out to leave battery dead. get a jump from co worker, drive home. next morning dead. take it to autozone for charge, battery low on charge. get battery charged 4 hours, drive to ny & back home. go out to 7eleven battery dead, click click. autozone or dealer refuse to sell battery because battery reads good. what's the issue. honda without even checking car says it's a major issue with 'these' cars and $700 for new battery and alternator!!! for what? ford dealer (where purchased) gave the 'all good' as did autozone testing.
Unable to start the vehicle. battery tested fine. honda dealership told me to replace the starter and the car still won't start two days after being replaced. the recall for the battery sensor was also done on the car and the car has been very well taken care of.
I am having the problem when i go to start my car it clicks but won't turn over until after several attempts. new battery not the problem all lights are working .it began after i went and had a battery sensor recall done. after several reach outs i see this is a major complaint on this year of vehicle.
I am having intermittent issues with my car starting. it does one click and won't start. there is no turning over. it looks like my radio isn't resetting when it happens. i took it to the honda dealership and they said my battery is 100%, my starter is fine, and my alternator is fine as well. an hour after leaving the dealership it didn't start again. connections aren't corroded. i have to attach a battery jump start pack to start my car every time to fails. i have read forums that have claimed there was an issue with faulty starters for 2013-2015 honda accords, but they do not have a legal recall. my car is just under 50k miles at 49,600, and likely is just out of the warranty mileage.
I have a 2015 honda accord with about 34,000 miles on it. a few weeks ago i noticed i started having trouble turning on my car. well this morning it just wouldnt start. the battery is new. when i press the brake and push start it wont start. i'm guessing it's my started. i have looked online and there are tons of forums about defective starters on 2015 honda accords. why isnt this a recall?
The right rear door does not open with the remote, or with the lock/unlock inside button or manually. the system is frozen on that side creating a very dangerous situation for my children that have to travel in the rear seat. there is no way to open the rear door in case of accident/fire or any other emergency.
I had my battery check due to a battery recall from honda. after they fixed the issue. i experience a hard start and then after the car start. i see engine light turned on and other warning lights. engine code p2101.
For the past few months my car has been having trouble turning on. i have had to call geico for a jump start on multiple occasions already. sometimes when i press the power button, it struggles to turn on and i have to try multiple times. other times it won't turn on unless i use the remote start option with my key. the car has never turned off on my while i am driving, but a few times while i am driving, the display restarts and it startles me because it goes completely blank as if the car is going to shut off.
My sunroof exploded twice while i was driving on the highway, january 31, 2018 and again on february 26, 2018. after escalating my concerns to honda corporate in california, lucas honda made the repairs, although the second repair was improperly done. i had the car towed to lucas honda march 13, 2018 for the second repair because it was unsafe to drive with all the loose and broken glass everywhere, plus i had just returned to fl from tx after having major surgery which limited my mobility. i called and emailed tracy to let him know that there was a small gap in the rubber lining that was affixed to the glass as well as there was still loose glass that i could hear when turning the car or opening the sunroof. in fact, the sunroof jammed and it took about 10 minutes to get it closed again, from that point i didn't open it again. he left a voicemail on 03/16/18 saying that once it heats up the rubber should mold in place securing the glass. i received a letter from darian curtis at honda corporate that a district parts and service manager would be overseeing the 3rd repair. i picked up my car shortly thereafter and have heard nothing else,no explanation,no resolution, nothing at all. i have since traded in the vehicle for something else since it is unsafe to drive and i am fearful of driving it. these unexplained instances could cause harm to me and other drivers on the road.
The plastic case of the battery sensor may have gaps that allow moisture to enter the sensor. if moisture containing conductive substances (such as road salt) enters the battery sensor, it could cause an electrical short and subsequently, a fire.
Takata recall - while driving home on the southern state parkway, a leveled highway, i veered towards the right in an effort to avoid a potential accident with another car speeding from behind me. car passed on my left - all was ok. then as i went from the break peddle to the gas peddle, boom then driver side and driver seat airbags deployed on my 2015 honda accord, the steering wheel began to locked, pulling me towards the left, all of this without collision or known impact to the car.
My issue is i purchased the vehicle from the honda dealership and without any disclosed information, did they say anything about my vehicle being on recall. also i drove out of the dealership told that my car passed the inspection but then told me i have to go get it inspected. my vehicle failed the inspection after i was told that it passed when it was at the dealership. the monitor catalyst, monitor evap, monitor 02, none we're ready for an inspection. i was then told that i have to keep driving the car to put some miles on it. never heard of this before that's why i am reaching out.
I had a recalled dated august 2017 to get the vehicle to a nearby dealer problem indicated on the letter: a battery sensor case mounted on top the 12v battery which may have gaps that could allow for moisture to enter the sensor. i took it to a dealer of honda of new rochelle in ny. i was told the part is not available and that american honda will reissue a letter. considering the risk involved in daily driving the car, how soon will the issue be fixed? i am scared driving this car and freely so. what follow-up information has american honda? kindly respond. my nummber -5168089496; email [email protected]
Takata recall everytime my car runs thru a ditch the low tire light comes on . i put air rest the calibration and in a few days i would hit another ditch and the same steps over and over again.
Car intermittenly mskes a clunk/click noise under driver side of vehicle.
I was going home on 6/9/17 on a very busy highway 52-n at approx 60 mph. the car quit running, the rear wheels lock ,and i am sliding sideways. the car just died. there was a tanker truck behind me, who had to lock down his brakes to avoid hitting me while i have my daughter who is under 12 years of age in the car with me! i called the dealership and they said have it towed to them! on 6/10/17, i was told that the battery was dead and that they would replace it and have the tech drive car home and see what happens. on 6/12/17, i was told that they reset warning sensor and that a diode was bad. they wanted tech to drive car again and see what happens. on 6/13/17, i was told that a sensor was bad and they wanted tech to drive car again to see what happens. the morning of 6/14/17, i told that the high pressure steering hose needed replacing, and they wanted a tech to drive the car again! they also stated they were calling the tech line in california to get further info. the afternoon of 6/14/17, i was told that the tech line suggested changing the fuel pump and that should fix the problem. they told me that it would take 2 days to get the part and 1.5 - 2 hours to install. i said okay the morning of 6/15/17, they called me and said part was in and installed, but they wanted tech to drive again to see what happens. i said okay. the morning of 6/16/17, i was called and told car was ready for pick up. i picked car up the afternoon of 6/16/17 and drove home. i immediately noticed a terrible smell. it also acted funny between 3rd and 4th gear. i went to remove a bag from trunk and the trunk smells like a dead animal now. sat. afternoon, i am going home and the car does the same exact thing but only worse now since i have both kids in the car with me! something i noticed. the tech only drove it 8.5 miles a day (60 miles total). 6/19 got car towed to dealership again!
Within 5 seconds after we got into the car and closed the doors on the 2 door coupe the back glass exploded. lucky i was not driving on the highway. it sounded like a bomb and glass flew all over the car. i had not even started the engine. it was in my parking space behind my home. no one was near and the weather was about 40 degrees and clear.
I recently bought this car in april and noticed that this car shakes when breaking from a higher speed - normally on the highway. i took it back to the dealership and they said that there was a tbs for it and nothing that they could do about it.
I recently bought this car in april 2017 and noticed whenever it rains, the interior stinks like mold. i checked for leaks and the rubber trim around the doors and found nothing wrong with them. since this is a problem that is detected by smell, there is no way for me to prove this to a dealer.
Foul/musty pungent smell coming from the vents with air on or off. brought to a honda dealer...performed ac/heating evaporator cleaning/changed also the element filter. the smell has come back. i did google the problem and found numerous complains similar to mine
I have a 2015 honda accord lx. i started experiencing problems with the stereo approx november 2016. when i would toggle between the radio pre-sets i would loose everything, now sound no stations. it is not till after i shut my car off for a few minutes that it will reset. i have taken video and an actual service advisor at the honda dealership has seen what it is doing. since they could not figure out why it was doing this, they replaced the stereo with, which i thought was a new one, but it was a re-manufactured one i found out after i went to connect my phone back to my car and a bunch of names popped up in the phone area. i was told honda will only authorize a re manufactured one. the stereo that was installed now it doing the same thing. i took it back to the dealership and was told that it was my iphone and i needed to get a new phone. my phone has nothing to do with the actual radio stations. bluetooth, itunes and pandora yes my phone affects those but not the radio. and if it was my phone then how can i make calls when it all was not working?
Air condition when set on high temperature (78+), after 10 minutes,it starts generating cool air. in winter it's not working as per expectation. always experienced when vehicle is in motion. *bf
Purchased 2 honda accord ex-l v6's in december of 2014. just 1 week ago one of the batteries suddenly died and eventually showed "check charge system" on the display. honda determined that the battery was really low and replaced it. fast foward just a couple of days and the other one starts to exhibit the same exact problems. taking it to honda again today but assume they will replace the battery as well. seems odd that the battery would die on both vehicles less than 2 years after purchase. cars are driven daily for atleast a 20 minute commute each way plus other trips/errands/etc. very unacceptable and seems to be a common issue dating back to previous models.
Sunroof exploded on 2015 honda accord at 9:30 am on 9/19/16 while traveling on highway one mile before exiting. sounded as if a semi tire exploded near by. it was not an impact break. it exploded outward not inward. there were no vehicles close enough to shoot a rock and it would have hit windshield. i now have on my once perfect unblemished car scratches on top and on trunk. vehicle is 1.5 years old, 18,000 miles and honda has informed me they will not cover under the warranty despite that it is obviously a known defect. i have images on phone but having a hard time attaching.
Headlights on low beam have a sharp top side cutoff that makes seeing the road and signs and objects difficult to see at night. also when going down hill and if the road rises sharply, you cannot see very far ahead, i almost hit someone crossing a street because of this. also, the heater/ac controls are needlessly complicated, as are the radio controls. where one knob could control the on/off and fan speed, this car has three separate small buttons where you must take yours eyes off the road to find. the same applies to changing the temperature; there are two up/down separate buttons, where one simple knob would work. the radio, too has too many needless buttons to push. if texting is dangerous while driving, they have made this car dangerous to change almost any control. there should be the rule that controls be kept as simple as possible. i understand that the lexus even has a separate mouse you must use to change settings! it has gotten out of control.
On friday may 6, 2016 while driving on interstate 4, driver side window exploded inward hitting me with glass and distributing glass throughout entire inside of car, front and back. very loud explosion and all glass came inside car. there were no other cars beside me or in front of me at the time. i almost lost control of the vehicle while doing 70 mph. honda service sanford florida said there is no issue with their windows doing this, however, when i go on line i see many entries on the internet outlining this same identical issue, plus there are law suits that have been filed against honda due to this issue. honda service sanford cleaned all of the glass from within the interior of car without taking pictures. i will take pictues of the inside of door once they remove panels. something needs to be investigated to ensure that that is there is a defect in the glass that its replaced before someone looses control of their vehicle and causes injury or death to other.
I bought a new honda accord about 7 months ago. i noticed after driving it a month or more that every long once in a while it was showing me a defect known as "unintended acceleration". i took it in to the dealer and after they examined it, put it on the computer machine and test drove it a few miles, they found it to be perfect, nothing wrong with it. i took it back and continued driving it thinking that perhaps i did something that caused it.as i continued on with it, i pulled into my handicap space at my parking lot. front end up to a concrete bunker with the handicap sign standing tall in front. i was about to put the car in park and shut the key off, when suddenly while my feet were off the pedals the car zoomed up to 40 mph,i turned the wheel left to try and avoid the sign after it hit the bunker and as it sped into the next parking lane i braked and shifted to neutral.luckily there was no traffic in the second lane or i would have killed somebody as well as myself.i took it to two more dealers with a damaged passenger fender and they all said after looking and testing again that there is nothing wrong with the car. the last dealer brought a honda expert mechanic in from the manufacturer and he too said nothing's wrong. without evidence they can do nothing for me.if we can't find the trouble you say is there, we can't accomodate you. i said, so your sending me home now to get killed?sorry but there's no proof. i called honda manufacturer and they would do nothing.
Approx. 4 months into my ownership of the vehicle, the backup camera stayed on, while the gear was in d (drive). fortunately it was a short drive but it did concern me a little bit. the same issue happened again 2 months later. pictures from both incidents are attached. on the 2nd instance the audio system said "turned off" while music was played loud and clear. i changed gears a few times while actually in the parking spot to see if it resets, but no luck. incident has not been reported to the dealer yet. was the computer on the car thinking that i was reversing the car while i was actually going forward? anything wrong with the integration of transmission to electronics? what if the air bags do not deploy or early warning systems like forward collision or lane departure alerts do not work? i am continuing to drive the car but very concerned for family and my own safety.
The first problem occurred october 22nd, 2015. i was driving at night and i went to change the volume (up and down) on the steering wheel and it was not registering to the car. i then tried changing the station with the left and right buttons, and nothing changed. i proceeded to try using the touchscreen and i would press firmly and the stations would not change. i would have to stop, turn the car off and back on several times, then it would randomly work again. sometimes it would not work till the next day. i took my car in, showed them the video(s), and they said they rebooted/restarted/updated the firmware or the 'system' and it happened again to just come in. my car is current back in the shop, and now i have seven videos documented of this happening, all with the same issue recurring, on december 2nd, 2015, december 15th, 2015, january 17th, 2016, and january 21st, 2016. i can send all videos to an email but it will not let me upload it on the website. please note, every time this situation has happened, you can see in the videos, i am driving and/or stationed. morning, night, turning, driving forward, and reversing even. i checked to see if there were any recalls and/or complaints about this issue, and i could not find any. i honestly do not feel safe since this is a brand new car with under 9k miles.
This is 2015 brand new accord lx with cvt. the issues are: 1. the car has obvious side to side sway at speed 15 mph. 2. the car has big amplitude vibration at speed 25~35 mph. especially on a downward slope. 3. the whole car is vibrating at high speed (>70 mph). my hands and legs felt numbed after driving 30 to 40 minutes on highway.
I was driving on a highway and all of a sudden my sunroof exploded. i heard a loud noise. however, i didnt see any rocks or any object flying towards my car. it was very strange for the sunroof to just explode out of nowhere. i went to a honda dealer and they told me that it was impacted by an object. i did not see anything around that would have smashed into the sunroof.
I have had three incidents in the 4500 miles that i have driven the car where the sun reflects off of the shiny portion of the chrome center console and blinds me. this is unsafe and can cause an accident. other company's use non-reflective to avoid this. i think it should be recalled. i also think fmvss standards should address this extremely unsafe condition. i threw a rag over the portion of the console to prevent the sun from reflecting in my eyes so i would not have an accident.
I have a 2015 honda accord ( purchased in dec 2014), on july 9th my a/c stopped working, i brought it to the dealer on july 10th around 7:00 am for service. i received a call from the dealer stating that my ac/ condenser had a leak due to "road damage", possible hit by a pebble and caused a leak, and it is not covered under warranty. the cost to fix it is $716.85. to add insult to injury i have the extended warranty... i was also told that it is not covered under the extended warranty. after doing my research online, this seems to be a major issue with honda accord. this is a design flaw due to lack of proper protection behind the lower grill for the ac/ condenser. i reached out to american honda to see if they could assist and i was told ' this is not a manufacture defect" i went to the dealership on two separate occasion to speak with the general manager and i was told that there is nothing they could do to assist. i was told to contact my insurance company. nice design honda... i did some research and people are going to home depot to fix an obvious design flaw . http://www.8thcivic.com/forums/diy-honda-civic-exterior-style-mods/248465-how-add-gutter-guard-lower-grille-protect-c-condenser.html
Initial use of the automatic air conditioning system puts the passenger cabin into "air recirculation" mode in order to bring the temperature down as quickly as possible. unfortunately it will not turn air recirculation off until the interior air temperature has reached the temperature asked for. this can take a long time. we have been told for years that it isn't safe to leave recirculation on for too long due to the possibility of dangerous exhaust gases entering the cabin. recirculation can be turned off by pushing a button but having fresh air sooner seems safer to me.
It sounds as if the front windows are open even when the car is not moving. but at especially over 45 mph, the sound of air wooshing into the cabin is very pronounced. it is at ear level on both the driver and passenger side. honda has replaced the window run channels but the noise is still there. they say this is normal operation but cannot be. *js
Cpsc:i1510478a. simoniz products. consumer stated the product caused him to have a severe headache. *ln the consumer stated when he purchased the vehicle, the dealer offered a simoniz glass coat exterior paint sealant product along with a teflon based interior upholstery and carpet treatment. the consumer believed the chemicals were making him sick and a rash appeared on his hand, but later went away. *jb
When the temperature drops rapidly below freezing, the window motors freeze the windows become inoperable. this occurred with my left front, right front, and left rear windows. these various windows have frozen 4 additional times since the original incident. sometimes it has only been one of the 3 windows that has frozen shut; other times it has been all three.
