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.

Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the sensor, free of charge. Dealers will perform an interim remedy of applying adhesive to the case to prevent water intrusion. The recall began November 8, 2017. Owners may contact American Honda Customer Support Center at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's number for this recall is KG0.

I WAS SLOWLY MAKING A LEFT TURN INTO AND PULLING INTO A FRONT END IN PARKING SPACE WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR AS ALREADY GOING STRAIGHT INTO THE PARKING SPACE WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, COULD NOT BE SLOWED DOWN OR STOPPED BY THE BRAKE, JUMPED THE CURB, AND CRASHED INTO THE BUILDING. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY.

VEHICLE WOULD NOT START. ONLY A CLICKING SOUND WOULD BE HEARD UNDER THE HOOD. ALL IGNITION LIGHTS WOULD LIGHT PROPERLY AND HEADLIGHTS STAYED ON AND WERE BRIGHT. THIS INDICATED BATTERY WAS GOOD. ALSO BATTERY WAS JUST REPLACED. BUT THE CAR ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER. IT WOULD TAKE 2 TO 3 TRIES TO GET CAR TO START. IT GOT PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS TIME WENT ON. IT TURNS OUT I HAD TO REPLACE THE STARTER. IT WENT BAD AFTER ONLY 42,500 MILES. I SEEN OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT STARTER ISSUE. IT APPEARS HONDA MAY HAVE DEFECT IN STARTER. THE WARRANTY EXPIRED ABOUT 8 MONTHS AGO, AND THE DEALER WANTED TO CHARGE ME $650 TO REPLACE STARTER. I BOUGHT A STARTER AND INSTALLED MYSELF SAVING MONEY.

Electrical system, Engine, Jun 27, 2018
I'VE HAD THIS FOR FOR 2 YEARS NOW AND ALL OF A SUDDEN THERE ARE TIMES MY CAR WON'T START ON THE 1ST KEY TURN. ALL THE LIGHTS COME ON AND THE BATTERY IS STILL RUNNING GOOD. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY TESTED 3 TIMES. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. I PUT MY KEY IN TURN IT LIGHTS COME ON IT CLICKS I TURN IT BACK TURN AND THE SAME THING HAPPENS. USUALLY ON THE THE THIRD TRY IT THE ENGINE COMES ON POWERFUL. THIS HAPPENS AT LEAST 3 TIMES A WEEK. I READ ON OTHER FORUMS AND A LOT OF OWNWERS OF THE SAME CAR ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. THEY TOOK THEIRS TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAD TO GET THEIR STARTER REPLACED. WE ARE WONDERING HOW A CAR THIS NEW CAN ALREADY HAVE STARTER ISSUES? THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WHEN CARS ARE UNDER 100K IN MILES. HONDA NEEDS TO HAVE A RECALL ON THEIR POORLY MADE STARTER. THE OWNERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO REPLACE THE STARTER ALREADY.

I INFORMED HONDA ABOUT MY CAR'S OIL SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND HOW THE ENGINE IS BURNING OIL AT A FASTER RATE THAN NORMAL. I TOLD THEM THAT I HAD MY CAR CHECKED SEVERAL TIMES AT HONDA IN BURLINGAME FOR THIS PROBLEM. THERE WAS NO LEAKS, YET THEY COULDN'T DETERMINE THE CAUSE. THEY JUST TOLD ME TO KEEP AN EYE ON THE OIL GAUGE ON THE DASHBOARD. AT THE 50% LEVEL IT MADE A BEEPING NOISE AND I HAD THE OIL CHECKED. IT WAS ALMOST COMPLETELY EMPTY! THEREFORE THE OIL GAUGE WAS USELESS. I WROTE TO HONDA AND TOLD THEM THE PROBLEMS. THEY JUST TOLD ME TO GET IT CHECKED AGAIN AND WAS UNWILLING TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL HAZARD. NOW I AM CONCERNED ABOUT DRIVING THIS DEFECTIVE VEHICLE, AND VERY ALARMED THAT HONDA IS NOT CONCERNED ABOUT THIS POTENTIAL DANGER OR THEIR CUSTOMER'S SAFETY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT MADE A GRINDING SOUND AND FAILED TO START. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE DOES NOT ALWAYS START WHEN YOU PRESSED THE START BUTTON AND ONLY CLICKS. THIS CAN BE DANGEROUS IF THE CAR STALLS IN A BUSY INTERSECTION OR RAIL ROAD CROSSING AND THE VEHICLE CANNOT BE STARTED. TO START THE VEHICLE (KEYLESS W/FOB), YOU HAVE TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND PRESS THE START BUTTON. IT APPEARS THAT THE BRAKE PEDAL PRESSURE AND THE STARTING OF THE CAR MAY BE PART OF THE ISSUE AS WE HAVE NOTICED THAT THE CAR WILL MORE LIKELY START WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS SOFT VS. HARD. NOT SURE IF THE ISSUE IS ISOLATED TO THE START BUTTON, BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER, BOTH OR THE ELECTRONICS THAT INTERACTS WHEN THESE TWO. ANY ASSISTANCE THAT YOU MAY PROVIDE WITH THIS ISSUE IS APPRECIATED. THANK YOU

MY 2014 ACCORD, PURCHASED IN APRIL 2014, BEGAN BURNING OIL AND HAD TO HAVE EXTENSIVE WORK/REPAIRS DONE. ACCORDING TO A RECALL NOTICE ON MODELS MANUFACTURED SHORTLY AFTER MINE, A SIMILAR ISSUE OCCURRED. I WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE CENTER THAT THEY HAD SEEN SEVERAL CARS THE SAME MODEL AS MINE WITH THE SAME ISSUE BUT NO RECALL NOTICE HAD BEEN ISSUED YET. IF NOT ALREADY DONE, I BELIEVE THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO FOR A POTENTIAL RECALL. I CAN SEND DOCUMENTS OF WHAT WORK WAS DONE.

WHEN I START THE CAR IT WOULDN'T START ALL THE TIME, SPORADICALLY I WOULD GET NO START. THE LIGHT, ACC, RADIO, NAV EVERYTHING TURNS ON BUT THE ENGINE WONT START. I TRY AGAIN FEW TIMES IT WILL START, I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN JULY 2014, 31000 MILES ON IT TILL DATE. I NOTIFIED THE DEALERSHIP IN MAY 2017, THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT UNTIL THE WARRANTY PERIOD EXPIRED THEN THEY SOLD ME A BATTERY THINKING THAT WOULD SOLVE THE "NO START" PROBLEM. I CALLED HONDA AND INQUIRED AFTER RESEARCHING THE INTERNET THEY REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE PROBLEM UNTIL THEIR DEALERSHIP IS ABLE TO RE CREATE IT. 3 MONTHS LATER THE PROBLEM BECAME SO WORSE I WOULD GET NO START 2ND/3RD TIME I START THE CAR, I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP AND THEY IDENTIFIED IT'S THE STARTER AND WOULD COST ME $1000 TO REPLACE. ONCE THE STARTER WAS REPLACED, I HAD THE PROBLEM RESURFACE 4 TIMES THAT MONTH. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE DEFECTIVE STARTER AGAIN UNDER WARRANTY. 3 WEEKS LATER I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, 4 TIMES NO START IN THE SAME WEEK, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN AND THEY ROTATED THE GEAR PINION RING/ADJUSTED THE TORQUE CONVERTER AS PER HONDA. THE PROBLEM HAS NOT HAPPENED SINCE, THESE SERVICE GUYS AT THE DEALERSHIP I'M GOING ARE EXCELLENT BUT I CANT IMAGINE I'M DRIVING HONDA 'S TOP OF THE CLASS ACCORD EX-L WHICH IS SO VERY UNRELIABLE.

OIL LIFE AT 40%. CAR WAS MAKING NOISE. WHILE DRIVING AND PRESSED ON BRAKES ...OIL PRESSURE LIGHT WOULD TURN ON AND OFF. CHECKED OIL ON CAR. NO DROP OF OIL IN THE ENGINE. EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. NO LEAKS.. CARBON FOUND ON CYLINDERS, INSIDE ENGINE AND ON PINSTON RINGS. THIS IS NOT NORMAL ESPECIALLY WHEN CONSISTENT OIL CHANGES, FUEL INJECTION WAS CLEANED, AND CVT TRANSMISSION IS ALSO REPLACED CONSISTENTLY. I JUST BOUGHT THE CAR 6MONTHS AGO. ENGINE IS CURRENTLY DISMANTLED AND WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER! COMPLETELY UPSETTING!

MY VEHICLE IS HAVING STARTING ISSUES. ON SOME MORNINGS, IT WILL TAKE ABOUT 15 OR MORE TIMES TO ACTUALLY START MY VEHICLE, AND SOME MORNINGS IT WILL TURN OVER IMMEDIATELY. IT IS VERY DISTURBING BECAUSE I HAVE A 2014 VEHICLE AND SHOULD NOT BE HAVING ANY PROBLEMS WITH IT AS FAR AS IT STARTING. I HAVE ALSO BEEN INFORMED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON NEWER HONDAS FOR THIS EXACT REASON, THE STARTER. AS ALWAYS, MY VEHICLE IS STATIONARY WHEN TRYING TO START IT.

MY 2014 ACCORD EX SEDAN IS ON RECALL NOTICE AND I AM HAVING A FINAL REPAIR ON THE BATTERY MANAGEMENT SENOR NEXT WEEK. FOR SEVERAL WEEKS I AM EXPERIENCING AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM INTERMITTENTLY TRYING TO START MY CAR. WHEN I PUSH THE START BUTTON WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE PEDAL SOMETIMES THE CARE DOES NOT START. I HAVE HAD THE CAR SINCE NOV. 2013 AND HAVE ONLY HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS. ALL SYMBOLS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHT UP AND QUICKLY GO OFF AND I GET A NOTICE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL "POWER IS ON": WHEN I PUSH THE BUTTON AGAIN 1-3 TIMES, THE CAR STARTS. I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH STALLING OR CUTTING OFF WHILE IN MOTION. MY BATTERY IS ONLY 2 YR. OLD. AND IT WAS JUST CHECKED LAST MONTH AND THE CHARGE WAS OK. CLEARLY THERE IS A SHORT AFFECTING IGNITION OF THE IGNITION OF THE ENGINE. THE PROBLEM I HAVE DESCRIBED HAS SO FAR ONLY OCCURRED WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY. I ONLY HAVE 42,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND SO THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AND IS QUITE DISTURBING; IT CAN BECOME A MAJOR SAFETY PROBLEM. I KNOW THAT NHTSA HAS ISSUED HONDA ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CAMPAIGNS F/ RECALL NOTICES FOR OTHER HONDA VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT YET FOR MY 2014 SEDAN. IT NEEDS TO BE INCLUDED. FROM REVIEWING THE NHTSA COMPLAINT DATABASE IT IS CLEAR THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM BY NHTSA AND HONDA AND NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH. I AM REQUESTING THAT THIS COMPLAINT BE EXPEDITIOUSLY INVESTIGATED AND THE PROBLEM FOR MY CAR AND IS RECOGNIZED AS A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM FOR MULTIPLE HONDA PRODUCTS FOR MANY YEARS AND HONDA FIGURE OUT A PERMANENT SOLUTION. I AM REQUESTING THAT HONDA COVERS THE COST OF PARTS/LABOR TO FIX EVEN THOUGH I AM PAST THE REGULAR WARRANTY PERIOD (EXCEPT I AM STILL WITHIN THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY ) THIS WEEK (NOVEMBER 13 TO 11/17) PROBLEM OCCURRED 4 TIMES.

THERE HAS BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS IN REGARDS TO THE STARTER HAVING A "GRINDING", "STATIC-LIKE", OR "WHINING" SOUND AND IT HAS SEEMINGLY AFFECTED MY CAR AS WELL. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN I AM PREPARING TO LEAVE FOR MY DESTINATION, DO A BASIC PRESS OF THE STARTER BUTTON, AND I WILL HEAR THAT GRINDING AND WHINING SOUND... ON OCCASION, IT WILL TAKE A NUMBER OF TRIES TO GET THE CAR STARTED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING ON THE REGULAR. THERE IS A HONDA TECHNICAL BULLETIN (DATED FEBRUARY 5, 2016) NUMBER 16-002 IN REGARDS TO THE STARTER AND ALSO A PENDING CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT (MERKIN V. HONDA NORTH AMERICAN INC., AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR CO., HONDA MOTOR COMPANY LTD.) I CANNOT PINPOINT AN EXACT DATE ON WHEN THIS STARTED (I GAVE YOU MY BEST ANSWER), BUT IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND I FEAR IF IT CONTINUES, IT COULD HURT MY CAR IN THE LONG RUN OR I COULD POSSIBLY BE STRANDED IF I GO ON A LONG JOURNEY SOMEWHERE

MY CAR HAS BEEN TO HONDA TWICE FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THE FIRST INCIDENT WAS JUNE 20TH AT 5PM AT WHOLE FOODS IN PHOENIX. THE CAR WOULD TURN OVER THEN DIE. THE NEXT MORNING I TOOK IT TO HONDA (IT STARTED AND DROVE). I PICKED IT UP AT 5PM, THEY STATED THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. AS I'M SITTING IN THE CAR AT HONDA THE CAR DIED AND WOULDN'T START. THE NEXT DAY THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE STARTER AND REPLACED IT AND I PICKED UP THE CAR FRIDAY JUNE 23RD. THE CAR WAS FINE UNTIL SUNDAY AROUND 3PM AT SAFEWAY ON PHOENIX WHERE THE CAR WOULD START AND THEN DIE. I TOOK AN UBER HOME AND SCHEDULED A TOW. WHEN I GOT BACK TO SAFEWAY THE CAR STARTED AND I DROVE IT HOME. MONDAY MORNING JUNE 26 I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THE FUEL PUMP TO BE BAD AFTER TWO DAYS. I TOWED IT BACK TO HONDA ON JUNE 28TH TO HAVE THE FUEL PUMP CHANGED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART AND I DID NOT GET MY CAR BACK UNTIL JULY 8TH. ON MY WAY TO WORK TUESDAY JULY 11TH THE CAR DIED WHILE ON THE FREEWAY INTERCHANGE BETWEEN I10W AND I17N AND WAS FORCED TO THE SIDE OF THE RODE (THERE'S BARELY A SHOULDER) AND WAIT FOR A TOW AS THE CAR WOULD NO START. I WAS TOWED TO SHOWCASE HONDA WHERE THE CAR IS NOW. THIS LAST INCIDENT WAS MORE THAN JUST AN INCONVENIENCE IT WAS COMPLETELY UNSAFE. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THEY HAVE HAD THE CAR AND I HAVE ALMOST NO CONFIDENCE THEY ARE CAPABLE OF FIGURING OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR (THAT'S UNDER WARRANTY) AND I HONESTLY DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING THAT CAR ANY LONGER.
