I'M CURRENTLY WAITING ON A TOW TRUCK TO GET A JUMP MY CAR IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND IT WON'T START. VERY FRUSTRATED WITH HONDA I HAD THE CAR LESS THAN 2 YEARS AND I HAVE LESS THAN 50K MILES
Electrical system, Engine, May 30, 2019
CAR SUDDENLY WONT START. BREAK PETAL IS STUCK, DASH LIGHTS CLICK AND WONT START. ACTS LIKE ITS THE BATTERY BUT DOESN'T ALLOW JUMP. CAR HAS LESS THAT 46,000 MILES AND IS 2 YRS OLD. CURRENT RECALL OUT FOR FUEL ISSUES, BUT THE DEALER IS SURE THATS NOT THE CAUSE. CONTACT AT THE DEALER WAS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL AND KINDA RUDE. RUSHED ME OFF THE PHONE WHEN I WAS ASKING QUESTIONS. VERY UPSET

REAR VIEW CAMERA GLITCHES THEN WENT BLACK. VERY SHORT INTERMITTENT ON, BUT THEN GLITCHES AND SCREEN GOES BLACK AGAIN. NOW THE SCREEN STAYS BLACK WHEN SHIFTING INTO REVERSE OR TRY DIFFERENT ANGLES. CLEAN LENS AND NO OBSTRUCTIONS.
Electrical system, Mar 16, 2019
IN THE FIRST SEVERAL WEEKS OF OWNERSHIP, I NOTICE A SLIGHT VIBRATION INSIDE THE CAR--FLOORBOARD, STEERING WHEEL, DASH BOARD--WHEN THE BLOWER MOTOR WAS TURNED ON WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. IT WAS FAINT AT FIRST, BUT THE VIBRATION HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THE VIBRATION SEEMS MORE EXAGGERATED WHEN THE BLOWER AND A/C ARE ON TOGETHER, BUT THE VIBRATION IS STILL PRESENT WITH ONLY THE BLOWER MOTOR ON WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. I DON'T RECALL ANY SOUND WITH THE VIBRATION. THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE VIBRATION WAS WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT. I TURNED THE BLOWER MOTOR ON FOR HEAT OR OUTSIDE AIR WHEN I NOTICED A FAINT VIBRATION AS I SAT IDLING, AT A STOP LIGHT. NOW, WHEN THE BLOWER MOTOR IS USED WITH VENTILATION, A/C, HEAT, ETC., THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR EMITS A DISTINCT VIBRATION UNTIL THE BLOWER MOTOR IS TURNED OFF. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, I HAVE TURNED THE BLOWER MOTOR ON AND THERE IS NO NOTICEABLE VIBRATION, SO THE BLOWER MOTOR VIBRATION APPEARS TO BE LINKED TO THE RUNNING ENGINE.

MY CAR BRAKING SYSTEM AND ALL THE SAFETY SYSTEMS STOPPED FUNCTIONING ON MY CAR WHILE I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY (GARDEN STATE PARKWAY SOUTH) THIS MORNING, 3/15/2019. MY BRAKES DID NOT WORK TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN AT ALL. WHEN IT INITIALLY STARTED TO SHOW THE ERROR MESSAGES I TRIED TO USE THE BRAKES AND IT FELT LIKE MY CAR ACCELERATED. I LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO ALLOW MY CAR TO SLOW DOWN NATURALLY AND GET OFF AT A REST STOP (MONMOUTH REST AREA, AND FORCE PULL THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TO A STOP AND PUT MY CAR IN PARK. IT WAS REALLY A SCARY SITUATION ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY TO HAVE YOUR BRAKES NOT WORK AT ALL. I WAS ADVISED IT COULD BE A LIE BATTERY INDICATOR OF THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM THAT IS ALL CONNECTED TO EVEN THE BRAKES. IT IS HIGHLY DANGEROUS THAT AN ELECTRICAL GLITCH OR MALFUNCTION CAN COMPLETELY DISABLE MY BRAKING SYSTEM AND ALL OTHER SAFETY FEATURES.

BATTERY DIED AFTER LESS THAN 2 YEARS OF USE. NEEDED TO REPLACE. NO ELECTRICAL USE OF THE VEHICLE, PEP BOYS SAYS ITS A COMMON ISSUE WITH NEW HONDAS. NEEDED TO TOW CAR AND DANGEROUSLY TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET WHEN THE BATTERY DIED.
Electrical system, Visibility/wiper, Feb 14, 2019
BLIND SPOT ASSIST CAMERA IS A DISTRACTION AND FLICKERS DUE TO OTHER VEHICLE HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT. HUGE DISTRACTION CAN BE DANGEROUS, NOT AN EFFECTIVE SAFETY FEATURE. DRIVER SIDE WINDOW DOESN'T CLOSE. EVEN AFTER 5 ATTEMPTS THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW STARTS TO CLOSE AND HALF WAY REOPENS. ALL WINDOWS CLOSE NOTICEABLY SLOWER. DEALERSHIP CAN'T REPLICATE ISSUE SO NO REPAIR. STILL HAVE THE ISSUE, EVEN WHEN PARKED THE WINDOW DOESN'T CLOSE.

MY HONDA ACCORD 2017 4 CYN ALL OF DASH BOARD LIGHTS LIT UP, THE STEERING WHEEL PARTIALLY LOCKED WHILE I WAS DRIVING GOING 55 MPH. I PULLED OVER AND COULDN'T CUT THE CAR OFF WITH MY START BUTTON. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO FINALLY CUT IT CUT OFF. THEN IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL. THEN AFTER ANOTHER 5 MINUTES IT STARTED AND I WENT STRAIGHT TO THE CAR DEALERSHIP JANUARY 2019. ABOUT SEVEN MONTHS EARLIER, MY CAR WOULD START AT ALL. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THEY TOLD ME ONLY THING IT MIGHT BE WAS THE BATTERY, I BOUGHT A BATTERY AND MY CAR WAS ONLY 11 MONTHS OLD. RECENTLY, FEBRUARY 2019, NOW MY BATTERY IS 7 MONTHS OLD, MY CAR WOULDN'T START AGAIN. THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR, BUT I AM HAVING ISSUES. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN I START MY CAR AND THE DASH LIGHTS DO NOT COME ON AND I HOLD THE BUTTON ON THE DASH AND THE SYSTEM REBOOT AND THE DASH LIGHT COME ON. MY CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP AND NOW IT IS STARTING, BUT THE SAID EVERYTHING IS REGISTERING THAT NOTHING IS WRONG. I HAVE AN HUGE ISSUE BECAUSE I CAN'T BE STRAINED IN THIS COLD WINTER WEATHER AND MY CAR NOT STARTING. THIS IS UNSAFE BECAUSE I WAS IN MOTION LESS THAN A MONTH AGO ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 55 MPH AND MY CAR FROZE IN MOTION. CJB FEBRUARY 2019
Electrical system, Feb 8, 2019
I TOOK MY CAR IN FOR A RECALL, WHEN I GOT TO THE DEALERSHIP I TRIED TO ROLL UP MY WINDOW IT WENT HALF WAY UP AND THAN CAME BACK DOWN, I TRIED THIS SEVERAL TIMES IN FRONT OF 3 SERVICE MEN, THEY SAID THAT'S STRANGE I SAID I KNOW THIS JUST HAPPENED. SO OF COURSE WHEN I DROPPED OFF ME CAR THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY IT WOULD NOT DO THAT FOR THEM, BUT OF COURSE THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF BY THAN. SO WHEN MY CAR WAS DOWN I LET THE DEALERSHIP WENT INTO THE STORE AND WHEN I CAME OUT ALL MY WINDOWS WERE HALF WAY DOWN AND MY SUNROOF WAS CRACKED OPEN. I CALL MY SERVICE GUY AND EXPLAINED TO HIM WHAT HAPPENED, SO THE NEXT DAY I TOOK MY CAR BACK INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND OF COURSE IT DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR THEM..THE SERVICE MAN SAID WELL IF YOU HOLD DOWN THE BUTTON ALL YOUR WINDOWS WILL OPEN I SAID THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE BECAUSE I WAS IN THE STORE WHEN THIS HAPPENED AND THERE WAS NO WAS I COULD HAVE OPENED IT! SO NOW IT'S JUST A WAIT AND SEE TO SEE IF IT HAPPENDS A THIRD TIME!
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Feb 6, 2019
OVER THE LAST SEVERAL DAYS THE CAR WOULD NOT START WITHOUT REQUIRING A JUMP FOR THE BATTERY. THEN IT WOULD RUN, BUT ONCE THE CAR WAS OFF AND HAD TO BE RESTARTED IT WOULD REQUIRE ANOTHER JUMP. HAD THE BATTERY TESTED AND BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY STATE NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. (IT STARTED THERE NO PROBLEM). IT RAN FINE FOR THE NEXT FEW DAYS, BUT CURRENTLY ITS PARKED AND WON'T START. THE ONLY LIGHTS THAT DISPLAYED WAS THE EPS WHICH TURNED OFF SHORTLY AFTER THE CAR STARTED.
Electrical system, Other or unspecified, Engine, Jan 6, 2019, fire
THE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE BY ITSELF, A CAR ONLY WITH 13,000 MILES AND 1 YEAR OF USAGE THAT MEANS ALMOST BRAND NEW CAR. I DROVE 9 MILES APROX. FROM HOME TO MY WORK LOCATION. WHEN I ARRIVE AND PARK THE CAR BEFORE GOING UPSTAIRS, I SAW THE CAR BLOWING UNUSUAL SMOKE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, I OPENED THE HOOD AND I SAW THE FIRE WAS COMING BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND THE RADIATOR. I CALL THE 911 AND WHEN THEY ARRIVED THEY TRIED TO USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER BUT THE FIRE STARTED GETTING OUT OF CONTROL, FORCING THEM TO USE THE WATER HOSE TO STOP THE FIRE. HONDA IS NOT TAKING CARE OF THIS SAFETY CONCERN AND NO BODY KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED
Electrical system, Dec 7, 2018

LOUD CLICKING NOISE POSSIBLY IN LOCKING SYSTEM. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR. WHEN IT DOES START THE NOISE, IT IS CONTINUOUS FOR SEVERAL MILES.
