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.

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD FROM THE DEALERSHIP I NOTICED SOMETIMES THE PUSH START WOULD STALL OR SOUND LIKE IT WAS FAILING. ALSO MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT RESPOND TO MY KEY FOB. ALL OTHER DOORS RESPOND TO IT EXCEPT THE DRIVER DOOR. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND STILL THE ISSUE HASN'T BEEN RESOLVED. I HAVE BEEN TAKING THE ACTUAL KEY OUT OF THE FOB AND INSERTING IT INTO THE CAR DOOR TO UNLOCK MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR. NOW THE AC HAS BEGAN TO STOP AND START. IT ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE THE FAN MOTOR IS KICKING ON AND OFF. AND MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT IS NOT SLIDING BACK PROPERLY. IT WILL BEGAN TO GLIDE THEN STOP. THEN I HAVE TO KEEP PRESSING AND IT'LL GLIDE BACK A LITTLE AND THEN STOP AGAIN. OVERALL I THINK THERE IS SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE OR SOMETHING IS HAPPENING WITH IT. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RECALL SENT OUT JUNE 29, 2017. AS STATED ON THEIR WEBSITE THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT INCREASES THE RISK OF A FIRE. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID IS 17V418000 !

1. THERE IS HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE SHIFTS ARE HARD AND JOLTING 2. THE DOWNSHIFTING COMING FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS IS TERRIFYING. HARD, JOLTING SHIFTS THAT HAPPEN WAY TOO EARLY AND WAY TOO CLOSE TOGETHER. IT MAKES IT LIKE THE CAR IS STALLING CAUSING A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR A TUNING SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT FIXES THIS. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON A TRIP TO TEXAS AND THE STEERING WHEEL AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ON ITS OWN, CAUSING US TO ALMOST CRASH INTO OTHER CARS ON THE HIGHWAY. NO LIGHTS APPEARED ON OUR DASH AND IT WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY. WE WERE DRIVING 75-85 MPH AND COULD HAVE INJURED MULTIPLE PEOPLE IF WE HAD CRASHED. THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME SO HARD TO CONTROL REQUIRING MY FIANC TO GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL TO TURN IT INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE OF THE HIGHWAY. ONCE HE LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL, IT WOULD TURN REALLY FAST ON ITS OWN TO THE LEFT. HE TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF, BUT THE ISSUE WAS STILL THERE. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER AND EXPLAINED WHAT I FOUND ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. HE SAID HE WOULD RESEARCH IT AND CALL ME BACK BUT HE NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. THIS IS BIG SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF AND SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR COST. I TRIED CALLING CORPORATE ONLY TO HAVE MY CALL CUT OFF 3 TIMES. WHAT IS THE ACTUAL PROBLEM; BECAUSE WITHOUT A DASHBOARD LIGHT AND NO CODE WE DON'T KNOW? *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA IN 2019. ALREADY IT IS SHOWING THAT IT HAS A FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR PROBLEM THAT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION. NOW IT CAN ONLY BE DRIVEN 40MPH OR LESS. I RECEIVED A PRINTOUT THAT DETERMINED THIS DIAGNOSIS AND STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I NOTIFIED HONDA AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. COULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME TO CONFIRM THE TRUTH? *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. THE DASH ON THE CAR DISPLAYED A "START STOP" ERROR. THEN, THERE WAS MUCH LESS HORSEPOWER. I AM GUESSING THERE WAS BETWEEN 10 AND 20 HORSE POWER. THE CAR COULD BARELY GO 20 MILES PER HOUR. THEN, THE DASH SAID, STOP THE CAR. YOUR CAR IS OVER HEATING. SO, I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET AND STOPPED THE CAR. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS ON A RESIDENTIAL SIDE STREET. WHERE I LIVE, SOME SECTIONS OF FREEWAY ARE 12 AND 16 LANES WIDE. IF I HAD LOST POWER IN THIS SITUATION, I DON'T THINK I COULD HAVE MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY. THE WATER PUMP ON MY MODEL CAR WAS PART OF A SAFETY RECALL. AUDI CLAIMS THAT THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN BEFORE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED. HOWEVER, THE WATER PUMP ON MY CAR ONLY LASTED FOR 49,000 MILES. I SUSPECT THAT THE RE-DESIGN OF THE WATER PUMP IS STILL NOT ADEQUATE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE WITH OUR WATER PUMP. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 50MPH AND SUDDENLY FELT MY CAR SLIGHTLY JERK AND MAKE A POPPING NOISE. I DID NOT SEE ANY OBSTRUCTIONS PRIOR TO THIS, EVEN THOUGH IT FELT LIKE I HAD RUN OVER A TREE BRANCH. I PULLED OVER AS SOON AS POSSIBLE AND EVERYTHING ON MY CAR SEEMED FINE UNTIL I SAW MY SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. THE MIDDLE PART HAD COMPLETELY BROKEN OFF WHILE THE REST OF THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED. IT LOOKED LIKE SOMETHING HAD FALLEN OUT OF THE SKY AND HIT IT, ALTHOUGH IT DID NOT FEEL LIKE ANYTHING HAD BOUNCED OFF MY CAR WHILE DRIVING. THE SUNROOF DOOR HAD BEEN CLOSED AND I RARELY OPEN IT (THE LAST TIME I USED IT WAS AT LEAST 6 MONTHS AGO). *TR

TO BEGIN WITH I'VE HAD TO CHANGE MY BATTERY ATLEAST 4 TIMES(ONE TIME IT EXPLODED WITH BATTERY ACID)IN THE LAST 2 YEARS. ALSO 6 DIFFERENT LIGHTS IN THE PANEL ARE ON(BRAKE/ABS/TIRE PRESSURE/A STEERING WHEEL WITH AN !/MAINTENANCE/POWER STEERING. I RECENTLY PURCHASED 4 NEW TIRES FROM FIRESTONE AND GOT THE CAR ALIGNED THE MECHANIC SAID HE TRIED TO RESET THE NOTIFICATION ON THE DASHBOARD BUT IT WOULDN'T TURN OFF. I ALSO HAD A FAMILY MECHANIC PUT IT UNDER THE COMPUTER WHICH DIAGNOSED AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE. ANOTHER ISSUE THE CAR IS HAVING IS IT SHORT CIRCUITS MY HEAD LIGHTS WHEN IT RAIN, WHICH MEANS I'M REPLACING THEM ALMOST MONTHLY. THE CAR TENDS TO SHAKE WHEN ITS STOPPED BUT ONLY IF THE AC IS ON. SO IN CONCLUSION AFTER READING THIS RECALL IN CREDIT KARMA I AM SURE MY CAR NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED

MY HONDA ACCORD 2013 HAS A BURNING OIL ISSUE. FOR EVERY 3,000MILES, MY DIPSTICK WILL ONLY HAVE 1/2 OR 1/4 FROM THE ORIGINAL TOP LEVEL. I NOTICED THIS PROBLEM LAST SEPTEMBER 2018 WHEN I TO A ROAD TRIP IN FRESNO. WHEN I CHECKED MY DIPSTICK, IT HARDLY HAD ANY OIL ON THE SUPPOSED LEVEL. I DROPPED BY A GAS STATION AND POURED 1QUART OF OIL AND THE OIL LEVEL WENT UP TO 1/2 OF THE DIPSTICK. IF I DID NOT PUT OIL, THEN MY CAR WOULD HAVE BEEN RUNNING WITHOUT ANY OIL AND COULD JUST STOP ANY MOMENT I WAS DRIVING. I INFORMED CENTURY HONDA ON 12/01/2018 ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND POWERTRAIN WARRANTY WAS STILL IN EFFECT. AS OF TODAY, IT APPEARS CENTURY HONDA REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE.

WHILE TRYING TO DIAGNOSE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT MY MECHANIC NOTICED THAT THE FUEL TANK HAS A CRACK AT THE TOP OF THE TANK WHICH LEAKS GASOLINE WHEN FILLED UP. THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED AND RECALLED FOR SOME OTHER 2013 ACCORDS BUT NOT OURS. HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR ANY VEHICLE THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO. BUT AS IT CURRENTLY STANDS THEY ARE NOT.
