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.

DEAR SIR/MADAM:I BOUGHT MY CAR IN 2013 AND MY BATTERY WENT BAD THIS YEAR. I CONTACTED HONDA TO INFORM THAT IT IS UNUSUAL TO GET THE BATTERY WENT BAD WITHIN 3 YEARS WHEN I WAS USING IT VERY CAREFUL. I ASKED THEM TO CHANGE THE BATTERY AND THEY REFUSED TO TAKE ANY LIABILITY SINCE THEY SAID IT IS REGULAR WEAR AND TEAR. I TOLD THEM EVEN AAA GIVE 5 YEAR WARRANTY ON THEIR BATTERY. LAST MONTH, I RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM HONDA STATING THE FOLLOWING: "AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., INC. (HONDA) IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2013 - 2016 ACCORD VEHICLES. IN CERTAIN VEHICLES, THE PLASTIC CASE OF THE BATTERY SENSOR MAY HAVE GAPS THAT ALLOW MOISTURE TO ENTER THE SENSOR. SAFETY RISK: IF MOISTURE CONTAINING CONDUCTIVE SUBSTANCES (SUCH AS ROAD SALT) ENTERS THE BATTERY SENSOR, IT COULD CAUSE AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND SUBSEQUENTLY, A FIRE." THEY STILL REFUSED TO REIMBURSE ME $300.00 OF WHAT I PAID FOR MY BATTERY ALTHOUGH THEY HAVE RECALL.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS CHECKING UNDER THE HOOD OF MY HONDA AND I CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL AND THERE WAS NOT A DROP OF OIL IN THE ENGINE. I DIDNT KNOW WHY THIS WAS SO I CHANGED THE OIL FAST TO PREVENT THE ENGINE FROM DAMAGING. NOW 1400 MILES AFTER MY OIL CHANGE THE ENGINE IS HALF WAY DRY OF OIL. MY CAR IS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD WITH ONLY 42000 MILES ON IT, IT SHOULD NOT BE BURNING OIL.
Air bags, Vehicle speed control, Oct 4, 2017, crash
ON FRI SEPT 29TH, 2017 I HAD AN SUA (SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION) IN MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD THAT DEVASTATED PART OF AN OFFICE BUILDING AND WRECKED MY CAR. I WAS IN AN OFFICE PARK PARKING LOT AND BACKED UP, HIT A 3 FOOT HIGH CONCRETE BOLLARD, WAS ANNOYED, PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, FELT AN ODD LURCH AS THOUGH THE BUMPER WAS STUCK ON SOMETHING ALTHOUGH IT WAS NOT. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR AND AT THAT MOMENT THE CAR RAPIDLY ACCELERATED TO WHAT FELT LIKE 30 OR 40 MILES AN HOUR. I TRIED TO BRAKE BUT IT FELT AS THOUGH THERE WAS NO PRESSURE UNDER MY FOOT. I GRIPPED THE STEERING WHEEL IN TERROR AND STEERED THE CAR AWAY FROM OTHER PARKED CARS AND INTO A CONCRETE WHEELCHAIR RAMP WITH RAILS AND AN OFFICE BUILDING. THE AIR BAG WENT OFF. THE CONCRETE RAMP AND OFFICE BUILDING STOPPED THE CAR IN ITS TRACKS. I PUT IT IN PARK AND GOT OUT. I'M DOING OK BUT MOSTLY VERY VERY GRATEFUL I DIDN'T HURT OR KILL ANYONE. MINOR AIRBAG BURN ON MY ARM AND A CONTUSION TO MY KNEE. I FEEL THE AIRBAG ONLY CAME OUT A LITTLE AND HIT MY LEFT ARM, NOT THE REST OF MY BODY. BUT I COULD BE WRONG ABOUT THAT. I'M GLAD BECAUSE AS A PHYSICAL THERAPIST I'VE SEEN SOME NASTY AIR BAG INJURIES. ALSO I DID NOT HAVE MY SEAT BELT ON BECAUSE I OFTEN PUT IT ON AS I LEAVE A PARKING LOT. NOT A GOOD IDEA, BUT ALSO NO NASTY SEAT BELT INJURY. JUST STIFF ARMS, PAINFUL LEFT KNEE AND NECK, A FEW DAYS LATER. I REALIZE EVERYONE IS GOING TO SAY I HAD THE FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR BUT I WAS AT A DEAD STOP WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE TO ACCELERATE AND SERIOUSLY, AFTER ALMOST 40 YEARS OF DRIVING, I HAVE NEVER FELT ANYTHING LIKE THIS TERROR AND LOSS OF CONTROL. THE POLICEMAN WHO CAME TO THE SCENE WOULD TESTIFY TO THE FACT THAT I WAS COMPLETELY SANE AND SOBER AT THE TIME. TODAY, WE HEARD THE CAR WILL BE APPRAISED AS TOTALED. GOOD NEWS MEANING IT WILL NO LONGER BE DRIVEN.

MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD HAS AN AUTOMATIC STARTER AND THE STARTER HAS NOT BEEN WORKING PROPERLY. THE VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 50K MILES ON IT. WHEN YOU PRESS THE AUTOMATIC STARTED THE VEHICLE APPEARS TO POWER ON BUT THE STARTER IS NOT WORKING. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENED, IT WOULD TAKE 5-10 MINUTES BEFORE IT ACTUALLY STARTS.

CAR IN THE MORNING HESITATES JUST PULLING OUT OF ITS PARKING SPACE. PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND IT WON'T MOVE. PUT IT IN DRIVE AND SAME ISSUE. IT SEEMS AS IF IT'S TRYING TO WARM UP MAYBE? WHEN IT DOES START MOVING, IT RUNS AT 5-10 MPH AT 3K RPMS. I LET IT ROLL SLOWLY AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES IT STARTS TO DRIVE NORMAL. GOING UPHILL, I EXPERIENCE A SIMILAR ISSUE WHERE THE CAR IS RUNNING AT VERY HIGH RPMS AT LOW SPEEDS. I GET THE EFFECT IN ECO AND IN S MODE. IT DOESN'T SEEM TO MATTER. CAR IS A 2013 HAS ABOUT 42K MILES AND STARTED TO EXPERIENCE THIS ISSUE ABOUT 4-5K MILES AGO. I JUST ASSUMED IT WAS BECAUSE THE CAR WASN'T WARM ENOUGH OR BECAUSE ITS A 4 CYLINDER. LOOKING FURTHER INTO THIS NOTED THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH HONDA'S CVT.
Electrical system, Sep 4, 2017
FOR THE PAST YEAR THE CAR HAS FAILED TO START INTERMITTENTLY. THE ONLY WAY I'VE FOUND TO GET IT STARTED IS TO USE AN EXTERNAL BATTERY JUMP. EVEN THEN THAT ALSO FAILS ABOUT A THIRD OF THE TIME, THOUGH WAITING SOME TIME ENABLES THE JUMP TO WORK. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS "PROBABLY" THE STARTER AND WANTS $1,000 TO FIX IT. THE PROBLEM BEGAN AT ABOUT 40,000 MILES AND THE STARTER SHOULD NOT FAIL AT THAT AGE.
Other or unspecified, Sep 2, 2017
THE CAR HAS A PUSH BUTTON CRANK ALSO WOULDN'T START AT ALL AND HAD TO JUMP STAT IT THE OTHER DAY AFTER WORK. AT TIMES IT TAKES SEVERAL TRIES FOR CAR TO CRANK. IT IS SAID TO BE THE STARTER THE CAR IN VERY OLD LOW MILEAGE AND HONDA HAS HAD MULTIPLE COMPLAINS AND THIS IS NOT BEEN RECALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS JUMP STARTED AT MY WORK IN GRAHAM NC. FEEL THAT HONDA IS NOT RESPONDING TO THE COMPLAINTS AND FIXING THE ISSUE. WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER HONDA IF THIS IS WHAT KIND OF CUSTOMER SERVICE THEY HAVE REGARDING THREAT PRODUCTS!

MY CAR IS 2013 ACCORD BOUGHT BRAND NEW FROM GARDENA HONDA AND NO OTHER MECHANIC TOUCHED IT. SINCE 2013, I HAVE SERVICED MY CAR AT THE SAME LOCATION. MY CAR WAS PERFECTLY FINE HOWEVER, ONCE I RECEIVED THE BATTERY RECALL LETTER I DECIDED TO TAKE MY CAR INTO GARDENA HONDA. PLEASE NOTE MY CAR STILL HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES ON IT. AUGUST 2017 I WENT TO GET MY CAR CHECKED FOR THE BATTERY RECALL THEY SAID EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND THAT THEY APPLIED KONSHI BOND TO PROTECT BMS. TWO DAYS LATER AFTER WORK MY CAR DID NOT START (STATIONARY). CHECK ENGINE WAS ON, CHECK STEERING LIGHT ON & TRACTION LIGHT ON PLUS LOW PRESSURE ON. I IMMEDIATELY FELT UNSAFE TO DRIVE MY CAR BUT HAD TO TAKE IT BACK TO HONDA TO SEE WHAT THEY HAD DONE TO IT. HONDA SAID IT WAS NOT THEIR FAULT AND THAT NOW THE PROBLEM HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY BATTERY. INSTEAD, IT WAS MY ENGINE WIRE HARNESS. THAT NEEDED TO BE FIXED FOR A PRICE OF ~$2,800 BUT THEY COULD LOWER IT TO $669.15 + TAX I JUST WANT TO EXPRESS HOW DISAPPOINTED I AM IN HONDA. I BOUGHT A HONDA BECAUSE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE A RELIABLE CAR. BACK IN MARCH 2016 THEY TOLD ME BY BATTERY FAILED THE BATTERY TEST AND DECIDED TO CHARGE IT. NOVEMBER 2016, THEY MADE ME BUY A NEW BATTERY, AT THAT TIME MY CAR WAS STILL BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 22,000 MILES ON IT. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS IS COINCIDENCE. I GOT A HONDA FOR RELIABILITY REASONS. I ALSO KNOW YOU ARE NOT SUPPOSED TO SERVICE THE CAR FOR THE SAME ISSUE 3 TIMES AND I SHOULDN'T BE CONCERN OF MY 2013 HONDA CAR THAT STILL HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES OF ANY ELECTRICAL ISSUES. I AM CONCERN OF SERVICE FRAUD BECAUSE I WAS CHARGE TO RECHARGED AND REPLACE THE BATTERY. ONE TIME I WAS WITHIN WARRANTY AND THE OTHER WAS JUST A FEW MONTHS AFTERWARD. I AM REQUESTING A REIMBURSEMENT OF SOME MANNER; IT CAN BE MONETARY OR FREE SERVICING MY CAR.

EVERY TIME I TRY TO START MY CAR IT WON'T START. I HAVE TO TRY MAYBE 4 OR MORE TIMES BEFORE IT WILL START. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING BECAUSE THIS CAR IS 3 YEARS OLD. WHEN I'M AT WORK AND GO TO START THE CAR IT STAGS. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING. THIS PROBABLY HAPPENS EVERYDAY. EVERYTHING IS ON BUT IT STILL TAKES MANY ATTEMPTS TO START. I CONTACTED HONDA ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE BEEN GETTING MANY COMPLAINTS BUT DIDN'T OFFER A SOLUTION,SAID THEY WOULD GET BACK WITH ME. READING OTHER COMPLAINTS I THINK THIS NEED TO BE ADDRESSED.
