ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ENGINE FAILS TO CRANK AT FIRST TRY. CAR HAS ONLY 30000 MILES. STARTER MAKES STRANGE SOUND AND NOTHING HAPPENS WHEN CARS IS PARKED FOR SOME TIME. HAD THE BATTERY TERMINAL RECALL DONE BEFORE THIS STARTED TO HAPPEN. REPEATED TRIES WITH THE START BUTTON WILL EVENTUALLY WORK, SO FAR.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE HAD 1 OEM HONDA STARTER REPLACED AND 2 AFTERMARKET ONES. THE CAR INTERMITTENTLY STARTS. SOMETIMES IMMEDIATELY AND SOMETIMES LEAVES ME STRANDED. I TOOK THE CAR IN A FEW TIMES TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN THE PAST AND SINCE I COULDN'T REPLICATE IT THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING AND WAS CHARGED THE DIAGNOSTIC FEE $180. THIS CAR IS SO UNRELIABLE THAT I CAN'T EVEN HAVE MY KIDS DRIVE IT FEARING THEM BEING STRANDED. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AT LEAST 6 TIMES. TO HAVE THE CAR START FINE THE NEXT DAY OR EVEN HOURS LATER. THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS WITH OTHERS OWNING THE SAME GENERATION HONDA ACCORD ON ALL THE FORUMS ONLINE. IT IS NOT SAFE AT ALL. I HAVE BEEN DEALING WITH THIS AROUND 40K AND NOW MY CAR IS 160K, SINCE NO ONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO FIX IT.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE WILL NOT START SOMETIMES WHEN YOU PUSH THE START BUTTON. I HAD THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, AND STARTED TESTED AND ALL ARE IN PERFECT WORKING ORDER.. ALL THE BATTERIES IN THE KEYS ARE FINE AS WELL. THE PROCESS I USE TO START THE CAR IS PUSH THE BREAK THEN PRESS THE PUSH START BUTTON. WHEN IT DOES NOT START IT MAKES A CLICKING NOISE LIKE THE BATTERY IS DEAD BUT THERE AGAIN WHEN THE BATTERY IS TESTED IT IS FULLER CHARGED. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING AS A NEW MOTHER. I AM SCARED MY SON AND I WILL BE LEFT SOMEWHERE WITH MY CAR UNABLE TO START. I HAVE ATTACHED AN IMAGE OF WHICH DASHBOARD ALERTS APPEARS WHEN THIS ISSUE OCCURS.

MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD HAS BEEN HAVING INTERMITTENT ISSUES WITH THE PUSH-BUTTON START FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO REPLACED THE BATTERY AND THINGS WORKED A LITTLE BETTER FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, BUT IT IS BACK TO NOT STARTING INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I HOLD DOWN THE BRAKE AND PUSH THE STARTER BUTTON.

ENGINE
I BELIEVE IT IS A STARTER ISSUE. WHEN I GO TO START THE VEHICLE IT WILL OFTEN STALL AND NOT THE START THE FIRST COUPLE TIMES AND I CAN HEAR IT TRY TO START BUT FAIL. THE CAR ONLY HAS 39K MILES ON IT AND I WAS DOING MY RESEARCH AND A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR 2014 ACCORD. I THINK THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A RECALL AND FIXED BY HONDA OR REFUNDED FOR REPAIR BY HONDA.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AS SOON AS MY WARRANTY RAN OUT, A LITTLE OVER 3 YRS AND CLOSE TO 40,000 MILES, MY STARTER WENT BAD. SINCE IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY, WE HAD THE STARTER REPLACED IN LATE 2017. MY STARTER STARTED MAKING NOISES AGAIN AND WOULD NOT START SPORADICALLY WITHIN A YEAR. IT HAS GRADUALLY STARTED HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY. MY CAR IS 5 YRS OLD AND HAS 90 000 + MILES, AND IS GOING TO NEED A 2ND STARTER REPLACED. SOMETHING HAS TO BE BURNING UP MY STARTER.

BOUGHT A 2014 ACCORD COUPE NEW. IT IS NOW 12/16/19 AND THIS IS THE FIFTH BATTERY IN THE CAR. 4 REPLACED BY HONDA AND 1 REPLACED BY MECHANIC. IF CAR SITS IN THE DRIVEWAY FOR 2 - 3 DAYS IT WILL NOT START. HONDA SAYS THEY CANNOT FIND ANY ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE CAR WHICH IS HARD TO BELIEVE. LIKE THE RIDE ON THE CAR BUT VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE RELIABILITY.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD WAS HAVING TROUBLE STARTING, PRESSING THE PUSH BUTTON START WOULD ONLY RESULT IN A CLICK. AFTER BEING STRANDED BY THE VEHICLE NOT STARTING I HAD TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED. I REMOVED THE STARTER FOR TESTING. WHEN THE STARTER WAS BENCH TESTED IT WORKED FINE. I PUT IT BACK ON THE CAR, IT STARTED ONCE AND WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I REPLACED THE STARTER MYSELF. IT WAS $310 FOR THE PART. THERE HAVE BEEN NO ISSUES STARTING THE CAR IN THE WEEK FOLLOWING THE REPLACEMENT. AFTER READING THE NHTSA POSTS AND ONLINE THIS IS A SYSTEMIC ISSUE WITH THE ACCORD THAT IS UNDERREPORTED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY ACCORD HAD STARTING ISSUES FOR SOMETIME, FEW WEEKS AGO IT COMPLETELY DEAD. CALLED AAA BATTERY SERVICE, THEY CHECKED AND REPLACED THE BATTERY. AGAIN I FACED SAME ISSUE, WITH IN A WEEK MY VEHICLE COMPLETED DEAD, WHICH DIDN'T START. TOWED THE VEHICLE TO NEAR BY HONDA DEALER, THEY INSPECTED AND TOLD THAT ISSUE WAS BAD STARTER. AND THEY CHARGED FANCY PRICE FOR THAT, $431 FOR SPARE AND $375 FOR LABOR JUST REPLACING THE STARTER. SO MANY CUSTOMERS FACING THE ISSUE, WITHIN 45,000 MILES, HONDA DOESN'T CARE. WHEN I RAISED THIS ISSUE TO HONDA THEY TOLD ME THAT STARTER IS WEAR PART AND I NEED TO REPLACE EVERY 40,000 MILES. ATTACHED HONDA SEVICE INVOICE FOR REFERENCE.
