Power train, driveline, driveshaftDec 10, 2020
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.

Electrical system, Sep 16, 2019
GRINDING & SPINNING NOISE WHEN I ATTEMPT TO START THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE WOULD EVENTUALLY START AFTER A FEW ATTEMPTS. THIS SHOULD BE TREATED AS A SAFETY ISSUE AS I AM AFRAID ELECTRICAL CIRCUITS COULD CATCH FIRE DUE TO THIS GRINDING AND THE CAR COULD FAIL TO START WHEN INVOLUNTARILY STOPPED ON A BUSY FREEWAY OR IN AN UNSAFE PARKING LOT, PUTTING MY FAMILY AT RISK. THIS HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY OTHER TIME I START THE ENGINE AND THE CAR WOULD NOT START UNTIL THE SECOND OR THIRD ATTEMPT. I RECALL THAT THIS ISSUE FIRST STARTED HAPPENING PROBABLY ABOUT SIX MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN JUNE 2014 BUT I KEPT THINKING THAT IT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO ME NOT PUSHING THE BUTTON PROPERLY AS THIS WAS THE FIRST CAR I OWNED WITH A PUSH BUTTON. THIS IS AN ISSUE HONDA APPARENTLY KNEW ABOUT AND ISSUED A TSB (#16-002) IN 2016 WHEN MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY AND HONDA AND THEIR DEALERS DID NOT DISCLOSE IT TO ME DURING THE MANY ITEMS I TOOK MY CAR TO THEM AND ASKED THEM IF THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE.

CAR KEEPS GOING DEAD AFTER I HAVE A NEW STARTER AND A NEW BATTERY. SHUTS OFF ANYWHERE AND CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Aug 22, 2019
THE CAR DID NOT TURN ON. HAD TO JUMP IT. AFTER JUMP BATTERY WAS STILL GOOD. BUT ALL SAFETY LIGHT IN THE CAR CAME ON. THE BATTERY IS 2-YEAR-OLDS AND STILL UNDER WARRANTY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY ARE TESTING IT NOW. BUT DEALER MENTIONED THAT THEY NEED TO PUT A NEW BATTERY IN TO TEST IT FIRST.
Electrical system, Engine, Aug 16, 2019
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN UNKNOWN HONDA DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 62,314.
Electrical system, Aug 16, 2019
MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD CAR COULD NOT START WITHOUT TWO OR THREE ATTEMPTS. ON JULY 31 2019, I TOOK THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALER FOR POSSIBLE BATTERY PROBLEM BUT WAS FOUND THAT THE BATTERY WAS GOOD. ABOUT A WEEK AFTER, THE CAR WAS SHOWING SIMILAR PROBLEMS, I.E, BY TURNING THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, I WAS NOT ABLE TO START THE CAR WITH THE FIRST AND SOMETIMES WITH THE SECOND ATTEMPT. ON AUGUST 13 2019, I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE SAME DEALER AND WAS TOLD BY SUPERVISOR THAT THE STARTER WAS NO LONGER GOOD SO NEEDED TO BE CHANGED. THIS WAS AFTER MY WARRANTY EXPIRED A LITTLE OVER A MONTH AGO. I ARGUED WITH THE PERSON THAT HANDLED MY CAR THAT WHY THE STARTED COULD GO BAD WHILE DRIVEN 30,883 MILES ONLY. THE ONLY ADVISE I WAS GIVEN WAS THAT IF I DIDN'T CHANGE THE STARTER, THE CAR WOULD COMPLETELY STOP FROM STARTING. SO I DECIDED THE DEALER TO PUT A NEW STARTER WITH A TOTAL OF $798.25 PRICE TAG.
Electrical system, Aug 13, 2019
THERE WAS A BATTERY ELECTRICAL SENSOR RECALLED IN WHICH I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED BUT NOW THE MECHANIC IS SAYING THERE IS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH THE STARTER SENSOR DELAYS. MY CAR HAS 75K AND TAKES 6 OR SO TIMES TO START WHEN PUSHING THE START BUTTON. THERE APPEARS TO BE A LARGE COMMUNITY OF 2013-2014 HONDA ACCORD OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME THING AND NEEDING TO BE REPLACED EVERY 20K THEREAFTER. PLEASE ISSUE A RECALL. WITH HAVING A BABY IN THE CAR, I CANNOT AFFORD TO BECOME STRANDED IN THE HEAT, NOT TO MENTION THE HIGH EXPENSE THIS COSTS WITH NO GUARANTEE IT WILL NOT NEED TO BE FIXED AGAIN AFTER 20K MILES. LONG TIME HONDA OWNER WHO DOES NOT WANT TO SWITCH BRANDS BUT NEEDS SAFETY AND INTEGRITY TO BE TOP PRIORITY FROM A CAR MANUFACTURER.
Electrical system, Engine, Aug 13, 2019
MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND OUT OF NOWHERE WHEN I WENT TO START IT IT WOULDN'T START I TRIED MAYBE JUMPING IT BUT IT WASN'T WORKING SO I HAD TO GET IT TOWED. AND TURNS OUT IT WAS THE LITTLE CONNECTOR TO THE BATTERY TERMINAL SO I PURCHASED THE PART AT THE DEALER AND HAD THE MECHANIC INSTALL IT THE FIRST TIME. NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN AND I DIDN'T REALIZE THE FIRST TIME I DID IT THE PART WAS A RECALL SO PAID OUT OF MY OWN POCKET MYSELF . AND NOW FOR IT TO HAPPEN AGAIN IS A BUMMER SO I SHOULD OF FILED A COMPLIMENT THE FIRST TIME AROUND BUT DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT IT I FIGURED IT MIGHT OF BEEN SOMETHING I DID BUT NOW I KNOW NOW . AND IT'S THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO I FIX THE PROBLEM AND IT JUST COMES BACK
Electrical system, Engine, Aug 10, 2019
EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. CAR USUALLY TAKES MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO START. USUALLY ON AROUND THE THIRD OR FOURTH ATTEMPT IT STARTS, BUT HAS TAKEN UP TO 10-12 ATTEMPTS OR MORE TO START. KEYED IGNITION, NOT PUSH BUTTON. WHEN IT FAILS TO START, ENGINE DOESN'T CRANK AT ALL, THERE IS JUST ONE SINGLE 'CLICK' SOUND. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER, THEY SAID IT'S MOST LIKELY A BAD STARTER AND QUOTED AROUND $700 TO REPLACE THE STARTER. THE CAR ONLY HAS 35K MILES, WHICH SEEMS VERY LOW MILES TO HAVE STARTER ISSUES. AFTER LOOKING AT ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, I BELIEVE THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL TO ADDRESS THIS, AS THIS IS CLEARLY A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM. MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER AND WIFE BOTH DRIVE THIS CAR, AND I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THIS ISSUE CAUSING THEM TO BE STRANDED SOMEWHERE. THAT'S DEFINITELY A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. IT ALSO DOESN'T SEEM FAIR FOR ME TO HAVE TO PAY $700 TO REPAIR AN ISSUE THAT IS CLEARLY DUE TO A FAULTY PART, JUST TO A HAVE A CAR THAT STARTS WHEN IT'S SUPPOSED TO. ALL THOSE PEOPLE WHO HAVE PAID TO HAVE THE STARTER ISSUES FIXED SHOULD BE REIMBURSED BY HONDA TOO.
Electrical system, Aug 6, 2019
CAR PURCHASED IN AUG 2014. I WAS VERY EXCITED TO PURCHASE A BRAND NEW HONDA. AROUND THE SECOND YEAR MARK OR 55,000MILES. STARTED HAVING CRANK ISSUES ONE NIGHT. CAR WAS TAKING TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY OR SO. IT WASN'T PUT ON A DIAGNOSTIC MACHINE. BATTERY CHECKED. SENSOR RECALL COMPETED. I HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW BATTERY WITH A THREE WARRANTY. COSTING $180. THE ISSUE STILL CONTINUES TO TODAY (AUG 6, 2019), EVEN AFTER PURCHASING A NEW STARTER. THIS IS GIVEN ME A HEADACHE. HONDA CORPORATE WAS NOTIFIED. NO RESOLUTION. CONTACT THE DEALERSHIP. NO RESOLUTION. ON CAR COMPLAINTS AND CAR GURUS, CUSTOMERS HAVE GOTTEN MULTIPLE THINGS FIXED AND CARS CONTINUE WITH THE SAME ISSUE
Electrical system, Aug 6, 2019
THE PUSH BUTTON START IS NOT WORKING. POWER COMES ON BUT THE CAR DOES NOT TURN OVER. SOMETIMES IT WORKS AFTER THE THIRD OR FOURTH TIME. SOMETIMES I SAY A LITTLE PRAY.
Electrical system, Aug 2, 2019
VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT STARING ISSUES. BATTERY, STARTER AND ALTERNATOR ALL TEST GOOD AND NO CODES APPEAR IN VEHICLES COMPUTER. VEHICLE WILL START AND THEN THE NEXT TIME WON'T. ISSUE FIRST APPEARED WITHIN A YEAR OF OWNERSHIP, AND BATTERY WAS REPLACED THEN AND STILL AN ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WILL SOMETIMES SIT OVER NIGHT OR WHILE OUT RUNNING ERRANDS.
Electrical system, Aug 2, 2019
PUSH BUTTON START NOT WORKING. STARTER IS DYING. TAKES THREE TO FOUR PUSH BUTTON STARTS TO START CAR. LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON THE CAR.

ABOUT A WEEK AGO I CALLED AAA FOR SERVICE FOR MY 2014 ACCORD. IT WOULD NOT START. THE TECHNICIAN CHECKED THE BATTERY AND FOUND IT TO BE FINE. HE THEN TRIED TO START THE CAR AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP. WE DROVE HOME AND HAD NO PROBLEMS FOR SEVERAL DAYS UNTIL LAST SATURDAY WHEN MY WIFE RETURNED TO THE CAR WITH GROCERIES AND UNCOUNTED THE SAME PROBLEM. MY WIFE IS 87 AND WITH THE HIGH HEAT AND PERISHABLES IT WAS NOT A PLEASANT EXPERIENCE. AGAIN, AFTER CALLING MY SON FOR AID, THE CAR FINALLY STARTED AND WE PLANNED A MONDAY VISIT TO YOUR ENTERPRISE. SINCE MY WIFE HAD A DOCTORS APPOINTMENT AT NOON, WE PRAYED THAT THE CAR WOULD START FOR THE TRIP TO THE DOCTOR'S AND THEN FOR THE DRIVE TO THE DEALERSHIP.IT STARTED FOR THE FIRST TRIP AND THEN AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES FOR THE SECOND TRIP TO. A CAR THAT MAY OR MAY NOT START CAN PLACE PEOPLE IN DANGER AND SHOULD BE VIEWED AS A SAFETY ISSUE.
Electrical system, Jul 23, 2019
PROBLEM STARTING ENGINE. SOME TIMES IT WOULD START WITHOUT A PROBLEM. OTHER TIMES IT WOULD SIMPLY CLICK AND NOT START. AFTER TRYING TO START MULTIPLE TIMES, IT USUALLY WOULD FINALLY START. REPLACED THE STARTER. NO DIFFERENCE. TESTED THE ORIGINAL STARTER AND IT TESTED GOOD. PUT THE ORIGINAL STARTER BACK IN THE VEHICLE. WAS TOLD BY THE PARTS STORE THAT THERE HAD BEEN MULTIPLE PROBLEMS JUST LIKE THIS.
Electrical system, Jul 16, 2019
STARTER FAILURE. SOMETIMES THE CAR WOULD START ON INITIAL TRY. OTHER TIMES THE CAR WOULD NOT START ON THE INITIAL TRY. IT WOULD JUST CLICK. I NEVER KNEW WHEN IT WOULD HAPPEN.
Electrical system, Jul 10, 2019
I PURCHASE THIS VEHICLE FROM A 3RD PARTY. BEFORE BUYING IT, THE BUYER REPLACED THE STARTER THE SAME DAY I PURCHASE THE CAR BASED ON HIS MECHANIC RECOMMENDATION. HE EXPLAIN TO ME THAT HE HAD PROBLEMS STARTING THE CAR WHEN ITS IN PARK, SOMETIME IT WORKED THE FIRST TIME, BUT SOMETIME IT HAD TO PUSH THE BOTTOM UP TO 5 TIMES AND PUSH THE BRAKE REALLY HARD. ABOUT 3 WEEKS LATER, THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO ME, THE CAR WILL NOT START, IT MAKES A GRINDING SOUND, THEN START DOING IT MORE OFTEN SO I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE RECOMMENDED CALL THE BUYER AND ASK HIS MECHANIC TO REPLACE IT AGAIN AND SEE IF IT WILL FIX THE PROBLEM. AFTER THE SECOND REPLACEMENT 2 WEEKS LATER IT DID IT AGAIN, AND IT BEEN DOING IT FOR THE LAST 2 MONTHS SINCE I PURCHASE THE CAR. IT SEEMS LIKE THIS IS NOT THE "STARTER" IT HAS TO BE ANOTHER ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, AND BASED ON THE COMPLAINTS, IT SEEMS LIKE IS THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT NO SOLUTION. PLEASE RECALL THIS PROBLEM BEFORE THE CAR DON'T START AT ALL.
Electrical system, Jul 10, 2019
SINCE NOV.2018 I HAVE THE STARTER PROBLEM. WITH IGNITION KEY IN EITHER THE LIGHTS COME UP - NO TURNING, OR IS GRINDS AND DIES (GARAGE). I REPLACED THE BATTERY THINKING IT IS THE BATTERY PROBLEM (VOLTAGE ~ 12.2 V). MILEAGE ABOUT 52K. WITH NEW BATTERY I EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM 2-3 TIMES AGAIN (PARKING LOT). LAST TIME: MAY 2019 - NO LIGHTS, THE STARTED DOES NOT TURN. BATTERY WAS 13.4 V. MILEAGE 58K.
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Jul 8, 2019
A FEW WEEKS AGO, OUR 2014 HONDA ACCORD LX, WOULD NOT CONSISTENTLY START. I TOOK IT TO TWO DIFFERENT AUTO-SHOPS, INCLUDING THE DEALERSHIP. THE FIRST AUTO SHOP COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. THEY SAID THEY STARTED THE CAR ~100 TIMES AND THE CAR STARTED EVERY TIME. I THEN TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS THE STARTER. I REPLACED THE STARTER AND THE CAR STARTED UP FINE. A COUPLE OF DAYS AFTER FIXING THE CAR, THE CAR DID NOT START. THE BATTERY WAS TESTED AND IS OKAY. OUR CAR WAS TOWED TO A TRUSTED MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE STARTER WAS FINE AND THAT HE SUSPECTS THE ORIGINAL DID NOT NEED REPLACEMENT. HE SAID THERE'S SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL ISSUE, BUT COULD NOT FIGURE OUT EXACTLY WHERE THE ISSUE IS. HE SAID IT MUST BE SOMEWHERE BETWEEN THE IGNITION AND STARTER. OUR LEAVING THE CAR WITH HIM SO THAT HE CAN HAVE OTHER TECHNICIANS INSPECT IT.

WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS, 20 MPH OR LESS, CAR DIES AND THEN RESTARTS ON IT'S OWN. TWICE WHILE TURNING AND ONCE AFTER THE CAR WAS IN PARK.
Electrical system, Jun 20, 2019
I TOOK MY CAR TO OIL CHANGE SERVICE AT HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE NEXT DAY MY CAR WON'T START. I HAD TO CALL AAA TO JUMP START MY CAR. 5 DAYS LATER, IT DIED AGAIN. CALLED AAA TO JUMP START IT AGAIN. I TOOK IT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP TO GET IT INSPECTED. I PAID THEM $100+ JUST FOR THEM TO SAY, "EVERYTHING LOOKS FINE TO ME". 5 DAYS LATER, IT DIED AGAIN. TO WHICH AT THIS POINT, I WOULD RATHER NOT DRIVE IT AGAIN UNTIL A RECALL HAPPENS. THIS IS UNSAFE ESPECIALLY IF YOU GET STRANDED SOMEWHERE.
Electrical system, Jun 20, 2019
WHEN TRYING TO TURN THE CAR ON, THE CAR MAY START OR NOT. IT'S ALMOST A GAMBLE WHEN TRYING TO TURN THE CAR ON. HONDA HAS ALWAYS BEEN SAFE AND RELIABLE BUT DUE TO THIS IGNITION PROBLEM I DON'T FEEL SAFE OR IT'S RELIABILITY. THE CAR IS PUSH TO START, SO WHEN IT DOES NOT WANT TO START IT CAN TAKE ANYWHERE FROM 2 TO 8 TRY'S BEFORE THE CAR STARTS. I HAD AN INSTANCE IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS WHERE MY PHONE WAS DEAD AND I WAS 27 MILES FROM HOME IN A PARKING STRUCTURE AND THE CAR DID NOT WANT TO START AT ALL.

VEHICLE STARTS SPORADICALLY. VEHICLE HAS KEY IGNITION. ONLY ONE CLICK WHEN TURNING KEY. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM TURNS ON IE. LIGHTS, RADIO ETC. IT WILL START SOMETIMES AFTER A FEW TURNS OF THE KEY. SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL. BATTERY TESTED FINE, ALTERNATOR SYSTEM TESTED FINE, IGNITION SWITCH IS FINE, FUSES ARE FINE. FAULTY STARTER. EMERGENCY SERVICE PROVIDED BY INSURANCE COMPANY ATTEMPTED TO JUMP VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. NEEDED TO BE TOWED. STARTED AFTER 5 OR 6 ATTEMPTS FOLLOWING DAY. NOW IT TAKES NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS EVERY TIME. FAULTY STARTER NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL.
Electrical system, Engine, Jun 17, 2019
STARTER IS FAILING FROM TIME TO TIME. WHEN USING PUSH-BUTTON START, SOMETIMES THE STARTER MAKES A STRONG GRINDING NOISE AND DOES NOT START THE VEHICLE. IT WILL SOMETIMES DO THIS FOR ONE, TWO, OR THREE ATTEMPTS IN A ROW. EVENTUALLY, THE STARTER WILL WORK. I'M AFRAID THE STARTER WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL COMPLETELY. CAR HAS LESS THAN 75,000 MILES.
