Power train, driveline, driveshaftJun 19, 2025
Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2013 Honda Accord vehicles equipped with a 4-cylinder engine and a continuously-variable transmission. The affected vehicles were originally sold, or ever registered, in Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The driveshaft may corrode and break, due to damage from road salt or other contaminants.
A broken driveshaft can result in a loss of drive power, or a vehicle rollaway when the vehicle is in park without the parking brake applied. Both scenarios can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Dealers will inspect and replace the driveshaft assemblies as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed August 11, 2025. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is OM2. This recall expands previous recall number 20V769.

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2013-2015 Accord vehicles equipped with a 4-cylinder engine and a continuously-variable transmission that were originally sold, or ever registered, in Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia, and Wisconsin. The drive shafts were assembled with a lubricant that may have degraded the drive shafts' protective coating, making it more susceptible to damage from road salt or other contaminants, and potentially cause it to break.
A broken drive shaft may cause a sudden loss of drive power. The vehicle could also roll away if the parking brake has not been applied before the vehicle has been exited. Either condition can increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will inspect the drive shafts, replacing both the left and right drive shafts, if necessary, free of charge. The recall began February 4, 2021. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138.

THE CAR LOOSES ITS STEERING CONTROL. WHEN STATIONARY (AND DRIVING), IF I TAKE MY HANDS OFF THE STEERING, IT AUTOMATICALLY STEERS ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT. IT SOMETIMES RESETS THE PROBLEM WHEN THE CAR IS RESTARTED OR WHEN IT IS TURNED ALL THE WAY TO THE RIGHT, THE PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN SHORTLY. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT LIKE OTHERS, I ONLY GOT A BIG BILL OF $2800.

MY 16 YEAR OLD SON WAS DRIVING MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD WHEN THE POWER STEERING FAILED. HE WAS IN MOTION ON A COUNTY HIGHWAY, TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. HE JUST CAME OFF AN ACCESS ROAD AND HAD VEERED TO THE RIGHT TO MERGE INTO ON-COMING TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 38K MILES. THE WHEEL JERKED TO THE RIGHT AND TOOK GREAT EFFORT TO CENTER THE VEHICLE AND CONTINUE TO A STOP. HE TURNED OFF THE CAR AND CALLED ME. STATED IT WAS STILL DRIVEABLE AND DROVE HOME, BUT CONTINUED TO HAVE TO ACCOMMODATE FOR STEERING WHEEL JERKING TO THE RIGHT AND CIRCULATING OUT OF CONTROL WHEN LET GO. I DROVE THE CAR UPON HIS RETURN AND EXPERIENCED SAME ISSUE. TAKING VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSTIC CHECK.

VEHICLE BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER FOR NO REASON. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED IT AND WAS TOLD THERE IS NO SAFETY RECALL. THERE ARE ALMOST 400,000 COMPLAINTS I'VE NOTICED AND I'M WONDERING WHY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL. I HAD 3 OF MY CHILDREN WITH ME AT THE TIME AND I FEEL EXTREMELY FORTUNATE THAT OUR VEHICLE DID NOT CRASH AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. DOES SOMEONE NEED TO DIE BEFORE THIS IS CONSIDERED SERIOUS ENOUGH FOR A RECALL?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE TRACTION CONTROL AND POWER STEERING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WETZEL HONDA (3505 CHESTER BLVD, RICHMOND, IN) WHERE A STEERING SERVICE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED PER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PROGRAM. AFTER RETRIEVING THE VEHICLE FROM THE DEALER, THE POWER STEERING IMMEDIATELY MALFUNCTIONED AND THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME DIFFICULT TO TURN. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 99,000.
Steering, Jun 9, 2019
WHILE CORNERING, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AND DID NOT RIGHT ITSELF COMING OUT OF THE CORNER. OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS, THE STEERING OCCASIONALLY FAILED. NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND WHEN HONDA TESTED THE CAR, NO TORQUE SENSOR FAILURES WERE NOTED. ON THAT BASIS, HONDA DECLINED TO APPLY THEIR EXTENDED WARRANTY COVERING THE FAILED STEERING. HONDA WAS NOT INTERESTED IN PURSUING THE FAILURE TO SEE IF IT MIGHT IMPROVE THEIR KNOWLEDGE OF A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL'S STEERING. HONDA CLAIMED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RARE AND THAT THERE WAS NO INFORMATION OUT THERE TO DETERMINE WHETHER THE VEHICLE WOULD BE SAFELY DRIVABLE WITHOUT REPAIR. THEY COULD NOT ASSURE ME THAT THE FAILURE WAS JUST A LOSS OF POWER STEERING, OF SOMETHING MORE DANGEROUS. IT WASN'T UNTIL AFTER I PAID FOR THE REPAIR, THAT I FOUND NUMEROUS SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE.

IN AUGUST OF 2018 I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE INTO BALISE HONDA IN WEST SPRINGFIELD, MASSACHUSETTS WITH A LOSS OF POWER STEERING DURING OPERATION ON A HIGHWAY. THEY WORKED ON THE VEHICLE AND REPORTED NO RECALLS FOR LOSS OF POWER STEERING. WHEN I PICKED UP THE VEHICLE, I REGAINED POWER STEERING. ON JUNE 5, 2019, I LOST THE POWER STEERING AGAIN DURING OPERATION OF THE MOTOR VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET. I SUCCESSFULLY DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME WITHOUT POWER STEERING AND IT CONTINUED INTO JUNE 6, 2019. PLEASE HELP ME UNDERSTAND WHY ACCIDENTS HAVE OCCURRED DUE TO THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING IN THE 2013 HONDA ACCORD AND NO RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED? THIS SAFETY ISSUE CANNOT CONTINUE...

WHEN DRIVING THE CAR IT WOULD TURN EASY TO THE RIGHT BUT TURN HARD TO THE LEFT. WE TOOK IT IN TO A DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPROGRAMMED THE NEUTRAL SENSOR BECAUSE IT LOST ITS PROGRAMMING THEY SAY. THE CAR DROVE GOOD FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS, BUT IT STARTED DOING THE SAME THING AS BEFORE, BUT ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE AND STARTED JERKING TO THE LEFT AND OVER STEERING WITH OUT WARNING. WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE SAME DEALERSHIP AND THEY NOW SAID IT NEEDED THE WHOLE STEERING RACK REPLACED FOR $2300. HOWEVER, THERE IS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON THIS PROBLEM THAT STATES THIS PROBLEM IS COVERED AND HONDA IS SUPPOSED TO PAY FOR ALL COST ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PROBLEM. AS STATED ABOVE THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE AFTER IT CAME BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP.THE SERVICE BULLETIN # IS 15-056 WHICH IS THE EPS TORQUE SENSOR WHICH THEY SAID NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED, WHICH MADE THE STEERING GOOD ONLY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS. WITH THAT SAID I AM NOT SURE HOW THE EPS TORQUE SENSOR IS NOT A DEFECT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY? THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AS WELL AS HONDA INCORP. CLAIMS THIS PROBLEM IS NOT RELATED TO THE TORQUE SENSOR. THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA SAYS THE POWER STEERING GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. THE EXTENDED WARRANTY BULLETING SAYS THE POWER STEERING GEAR BOX ASSEMBLY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THAT HONDA IS TO PAY FOR IT.

WHILE BACKING OUT OF A RESIDENTIAL DRIVEWAY ONTO A BUSY NEIGHBORHOOD STREET, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND THE STEERING MALFUNCTION WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I ATTEMPTED TO STEER THE VEHICLE BUT THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING(EPS) WAS COUNTERING THE STEERING EFFORT. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO RESTART THE VEHICLE IN HOPES TO REGAIN STEERING CONTROL, BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT OPERATE PROPERLY. THE ONLY WAY I WAS ABLE TO REGAIN STEERING CONTROL WAS WITH THE CAR OFF AND IN NEUTRAL, MEANING I HAD NO ABILITY TO ACCELERATE TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE FROM ONCOMING TRAFFIC, RELYING ONLY ON THE MOMENTUM OF THE SLOPED ROAD TO HELP GUIDE THE VEHICLE SAFELY AWAY FROM TRAFFIC LANES. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED THE THE DEALER THE NEXT MORNING. SERVICE ADVISER LOOKED UP VEHICLE HISTORY AND THE RECALL FOR EPS CONTROLLER SOFTWARE HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED 2 YEARS PRIOR. HONDA HAD EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE RACK AND PINION SYSTEM DUE TO KNOWN TORQUE SENSOR FAILURE ISSUES. ADVISER SAID IF, OBD SCAN SHOWS FAULT CODE RELATING TO TORQUE SENSOR FAILURE, HONDA WOULD COVER COMPLETE COST TO REPLACE ENTIRE RACK AND PINION SYSTEM. HOURS LATER, ADVISER CONTACTS ME AND SAYS THE SCAN SHOWS THAT IT WAS NOT THE THE TORQUE SENSOR THAT FAILED, BUT THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING COMPUTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT MY COST. I ARGUED THAT THERE WAS NO POSSIBLE WAY FOR THE CONSUMER TO PREVENT SUCH AN ISSUE FROM OCCURRING, AND THE FACT THAT A COMPUTER SYSTEM CONTROLLING THE STEERING FAILED WHILE I WAS OPERATING THE VEHICLE IS AN ALARMING SAFETY ISSUE THAT AMERICAN HONDA SHOULD LOOK INTO AND I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO BEAR THE BURDEN OF PAYING FOR SUCH A REPAIR. VEHICLE HAS 83,100 MILES, ORIGINAL OWNER AND ALL SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AT SAME DEALER. NEVER HAD PRIOR STEERING ISSUES AND WAS NEVER ADVISED OF ANY POTENTIAL ISSUES. HONDA SYMPATHETICALLY ONLY AGREED TO COVER HALF THE REPAIR COST.

ON 4/12/2019, I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT AROUND 24:00 (MIDNIGHT) ON FREEWAY 22 WESTBOUND NEAR THE BLOCK THAT I SUDDENLY REALIZED I LOST CONTROL OF MY STEERING WHEEL WHILE I WAS TRAVELING AT 70MPH PLUS. THE STEERING WHEEL ICON LIGHT UP ON MY DASHBOARD. THIS HAPPENED SO FAST AT A CURVE AREA OF THE FREEWAY, I TURNED ON MY EMERGENCY LIGHT AND SLOWED THE CAR DOWN BY HITTING THE BREAK. THERE WERE AROUND 4 CARS TO MY RIGHT WHEN THIS HAPPENED. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY REACH THE EXIT LANE TO THE RIGHT DUE TO THE CURVATURE OF THE FREEWAY TURNING LEFT BY GOING STRAIGHT. AS I SLOWED DOWN THE CAR ON THE EXIT LANE, I YANKED THE STEERING WHEEL VERY HARD TO THE LEFT THEN RIGHT TO MANEUVER THE CAR TO STAY IN THE LANE. AFTER I EXITED THE FREEWAY ON HASTER STREET, I YANKED THE STEERING WHEEL VERY HARD TO THE RIGHT TO MAKE THE TURN AND FOUND A SMALL STREET THEN COME TO A STOP. AT THIS TIME, THE STEERING WHEEL ICON STILL ILLUMINATED ON MY DASHBOARD. I TURNED OF THE CAR AFTER PUT IT TO PARK THEN TURNED IT BACK ON AND THE ICON DISAPPEARED. I GOT CONTROL OF STEERING WHEEL BACK. I PROCEEDED TO GARDEN GROVE STREET HEADING WEST TOWARD MY HOME. AT THE FIRST RED LIGHT ON GARDEN GROVE, I STOPPED AND DID NOT STEER THE WHEEL. AGAIN, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED ON ME AGAIN. THE ICON APPEARED AGAIN ON MY DASHBOARD. I AGAIN TURNED OFF AND ON THE CAR AND THE ICON DISAPPEARED AND I HAD MY CONTROL BACK. FROM THERE, I DROVE SLOWLY IN THE RIGHT LANE TO MY HOME. THIS TIME, THERE WAS NO PROBLEM. ON 4/13/2019, WHICH IS TODAY, I DROPPED OFF MY CAR AT HONDA WORLD DEALER ON 13600 BEACH BLVD, WESTMINSTER, CA 92683 AND TOLD ONE OF THE REPS ABOUT THE PROBLEM. HE DID THE INQUIRY ON MY CAR AND SYSTEM SHOWED THERE WAS A RECALL OF EPS GEARBOX REPLACEMENT AT THIS DEALERSHIP. I HOPE NHTSA WILL TAKE THIS SERIOUS AND HELP PEOPLE LIKE ME. IT'S EXTREMELY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WITH NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL.

THE NEXT MORNING, BACKING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY I NOTICED THE STEERING WAS NORMAL AT ONE POINT, I ROTATED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND THE WHEEL CONTINUED TURNING BY ITSELF WHILE THE CAR WAS NOT EVEN IN MOTION. I ROTATED THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT AND MET WITH RESISTANCE. I ROTATED THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT AND THE WHEEL STARTED TURNING BY ITSELF. I THEN NOTICED THE EPS LIGHT WAS ON. I CONTINUED TO ROTATE THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH. I GOT TO THE CENTER POSITIONED AND THE WHEEL THEN TURNED RAPIDLY TO THE RIGHT BY ITSELF . I IMMEDIATELY DECIDED TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST HONDA DEALER. ON THE WAY THERE THE WHEEL VIOLENTLY TURNED TO THE RIGHT AND NEARLY CAUSED ME TO RUN INTO THE CURB AT 35 MPH.I THEN ARRIVED AT JIM RIEHL HONDA IN STERLING HEIGHTS , MICHIGAN. THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A "POSITION SENSOR". THEY RELATED TO ME THAT THEY HAD DOWNLOADED THE SOFTWARE AND THIS SEEMED TO HAVE CLEARED THE PROBLEM.
