WHEELS
IN 2016 HOWLING, HUMMING NOISE STARTED IN REAR WHEEL WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 40-55 MPH ON BOTH CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAY. NOISE WOULD INCREASE WITH SPEED. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED FAULTY WHEEL BEARING AND REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY ON FEB 13, 2017 AT 22,600 MILES. AFTER RETURNING HOME FROM VACATION IN FL, THE NOISE STARTED AGAIN. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS DIAGNOSED AGAIN WITH A FAULTY WHEEL BEARING AT 26,690 MILES. RESEARCH HAS SHOWN THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE FOR THE 2014-2015 MODEL YEARS FOR MY VEHICLE. MY WARRANTY WILL BE UP IN NOVEMBER 2017 AND I AM CONCERNED THAT I MAY CONTINUE TO HAVE RECURRING ISSUES AND EXPENSES DUE TO THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN A LOYAL HONDA CUSTOMER AND WANT TO KNOW WHAT HONDA CAN DO TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. A VEHICLE OF THIS AGE AND MILEAGE SHOULD NOT BE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE.

I RECENTLY BOUGHT THIS CAR IN APRIL 2017 AND NOTICED WHENEVER IT RAINS, THE INTERIOR STINKS LIKE MOLD. I CHECKED FOR LEAKS AND THE RUBBER TRIM AROUND THE DOORS AND FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THEM. SINCE THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT IS DETECTED BY SMELL, THERE IS NO WAY FOR ME TO PROVE THIS TO A DEALER.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A HONDA ACCORD COUPE 2015 WITH LESS THAN 20K MILES AND HAD 2 OCCURANCES WHERE THE CAR WOULDN'T START. THE WARNING SIGN SAID FCW SYSTEM FAILED AND WOULDN'T START. DID SEVERAL THINGS, CALLED FOR HELP AT THE DEALER AND AFTER 20 MINUTES LATER, IT RANDOMLY STARTED. THE SECOND TIME MY GIRLFRIEND WAS DRIVING IT TO THE GROCERY STORE AND WHEN SHE WAS GETTING READY LEAVE, IT DID THE SAME THING TO HER. LUCKILY HER WORK WAS ACROSS THE STREET AND CAME BACK AFTER HER BRAKE 2 HOURS LATER AND RANDOMLY STARTED. THIS CAR WAS NEVER LISTED IN A WRECK, HAS A 1 YEAR OLD NEW BATTERY WHICH WAS REPLACE LAST YEAR EVEN THOUGH IT'S A 2015 AND I'M REPORTING THIS AUGUST 2017. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS IF YOU HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON REMEDYING THIS SITUATION. THANK YOU!

SEATS
THE SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE IN THE 2015 HONDA CRV. THE DRIVER SIDE IN PARTICULAR IS VERY FIRM AND HITS PRESSURE POINTS IN THE LEGS, NO MATTER HOW THE SEAT IS ADJUSTED. DRIVING THIS VEHICLE FOR MORE THAN 1/2 AN HOUR CAUSED PAIN IN MY SCIATIC NERVE, WITH THE PAIN RADIATING DOWN MY LEG AND UP INTO MY LOW BACK. I COULD NOT GET COMFORTABLE ON A 4 HOUR DRIVE, DESPITE TRYING EVERY CONFIGURATION OF AVAILABLE SEATING ADJUSTMENTS. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE A WEEK AND A HALF AGO AND HAVE 30 DAYS TO RETURN THIS CAR TO CARMAX. I PLAN TO DO SO BECAUSE IT IS SO UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE.

2015 ACCORD SPORT WITH 26K MILES, HAVE HAD MY TIRED ROTATED TWICE, BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. CUPPING OF THE TIRES MAKE FOR LOTS OF ROAD NOISE AND VIBRATION. CALLED THE TIRE COMPANY---NOT A TIRE ISSUE, IT IS A HONDA ISSUE---NOT SURE HOW THEY WILL FIX IT, BUT NEW TIRES ROTATED BASED ON HONDA'S RECOMMENDATION WILL CONTINUE CUPPING AND RUIN THE NEXT SET. GREAT COMPANY NEEDS TO ACKNOWLEDGE AND STEP UP TO OFFER A FAIR SOLUTION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
CAR HAD ABOUT 9000 MILES ON IT, WOULDN'T START AFTER DRIVING IT FOR 25 MINUTES FROM HOME. AUTOMATIC SHIFT SEEMS TO BE LOCKED. 4TH OF JULY WEEKEND, LONG WAIT FOR TOW TRUCK TO DEALER. NO SERVICE PEOPLE THERE. I WAS GIVEN A SHEET OF PAPER SHOWING A RECALL THAT HAS NOT BEEN DISTRIBUTED YET FOR 2013-2016 ACCORDS. THE CASE FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR MOUNTED AT THE TOP OF THE 12V BATTERY MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY MANUFACTURED WITH GAPS THAT COULD ALLOW FOR MOISTURE ENTRY, IF MOISTURE CONTAINING ROAD SALT, OR OTHER CONDUCTIVE SUBSTANCE,ENTERS THE BATTERY SENSOR, IT COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT AND SUBSEQUENTLY, A FIRE. REFRAIN FROM CALLING TECH LINE FOR UPDATES. THE FACT IS I AM A WOMAN AND I BUY A NEW OR LEASE A NEW CAR EVERY THREE OR SO YEARS SO THAT I WON'T BE LEFT SOMEWHERE STRANDED AND IN DANGER. ANYTIME A WOMAN IS HELPLESS IN A NON WORKING CAR, DANGER IS THE FIRST ISSUE. SORRY, BUT WE DO HAVE TO RECOGNIZE THE WORLD IS DIFFERENT FOR MEN AND WOMEN.

ENGINE
WHILE DRIVING ON A RURAL HIGHWAY AT 65 MPH AND SEEING A POSTED REDUCED SPEED LIMIT SIGN OF 45 MPH AHEAD, I STARTED SLOWING THE CAR BY DECREASING PRESSURE THE GAS PEDAL(NEVER REMOVING MY FOOT). AS I REACHED 45 MPH I INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL AND FELT THE CAR BRAKING. I REMOVED PRESSURE FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR CONTINUED TO COAST. I STEPPED(INCREASED PRESSURE) ON THE GAS PEDAL AGAIN AND I FELT THE CAR BRAKING AGAIN. I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE GAS PEDAL AND DOUBLED CHECKED MY FOOT POSITION AND I WAS USING THE GAS PEDAL. I MOVED MY FOOT TO THE BRAKE AND FELT THE BRAKES WERE WORKING. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO AN OPEN AREA BESIDE THE HIGHWAY AND STOP THE CAR SAFELY. AFTER STOPPING I NOTICE THE ENGINE OIL AND SERVICE LIGHTS ON AND ENGINE WAS OFF BUT POWER WAS ON. I SHUT THE POWER OFF. AFTER A MINUTE I RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT RUNS LIKE NOTHING HAPPENED. OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS 95 F.

I WAS GOING HOME ON 6/9/17 ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY 52-N AT APPROX 60 MPH. THE CAR QUIT RUNNING, THE REAR WHEELS LOCK ,AND I AM SLIDING SIDEWAYS. THE CAR JUST DIED. THERE WAS A TANKER TRUCK BEHIND ME, WHO HAD TO LOCK DOWN HIS BRAKES TO AVOID HITTING ME WHILE I HAVE MY DAUGHTER WHO IS UNDER 12 YEARS OF AGE IN THE CAR WITH ME! I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID HAVE IT TOWED TO THEM! ON 6/10/17, I WAS TOLD THAT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE IT AND HAVE THE TECH DRIVE CAR HOME AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. ON 6/12/17, I WAS TOLD THAT THEY RESET WARNING SENSOR AND THAT A DIODE WAS BAD. THEY WANTED TECH TO DRIVE CAR AGAIN AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS. ON 6/13/17, I WAS TOLD THAT A SENSOR WAS BAD AND THEY WANTED TECH TO DRIVE CAR AGAIN TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. THE MORNING OF 6/14/17, I TOLD THAT THE HIGH PRESSURE STEERING HOSE NEEDED REPLACING, AND THEY WANTED A TECH TO DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN! THEY ALSO STATED THEY WERE CALLING THE TECH LINE IN CALIFORNIA TO GET FURTHER INFO. THE AFTERNOON OF 6/14/17, I WAS TOLD THAT THE TECH LINE SUGGESTED CHANGING THE FUEL PUMP AND THAT SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WOULD TAKE 2 DAYS TO GET THE PART AND 1.5 - 2 HOURS TO INSTALL. I SAID OKAY THE MORNING OF 6/15/17, THEY CALLED ME AND SAID PART WAS IN AND INSTALLED, BUT THEY WANTED TECH TO DRIVE AGAIN TO SEE WHAT HAPPENS. I SAID OKAY. THE MORNING OF 6/16/17, I WAS CALLED AND TOLD CAR WAS READY FOR PICK UP. I PICKED CAR UP THE AFTERNOON OF 6/16/17 AND DROVE HOME. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A TERRIBLE SMELL. IT ALSO ACTED FUNNY BETWEEN 3RD AND 4TH GEAR. I WENT TO REMOVE A BAG FROM TRUNK AND THE TRUNK SMELLS LIKE A DEAD ANIMAL NOW. SAT. AFTERNOON, I AM GOING HOME AND THE CAR DOES THE SAME EXACT THING BUT ONLY WORSE NOW SINCE I HAVE BOTH KIDS IN THE CAR WITH ME! SOMETHING I NOTICED. THE TECH ONLY DROVE IT 8.5 MILES A DAY (60 MILES TOTAL). 6/19 GOT CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN!

SEATS
I HAVE A HONDA ACCORD COUPE. THE BAR AROUND THE SEAT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE HAS BROKEN FOR THE FOURTH TIME IN JUST OVER TWO YEARS. IT HAS BEEN FIXED THREE TIMES BUT THE DEALER STATED WE WERE ON OUR OWN THE FOURTH TIME. ONE TIME WHEN MY HUSBAND TOOK THE CAR FOR THE DEALER TO LOOK AT FOR REPAIR, THEY FIXED THE CAR AS ANOTHER PERSON DID NOT SHOW WHO HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IT DOES FINE IF THE SEAT IS NOT MOVED BUT BREAKS WHEN YOU PUT THE SEAT UP AND DOWN OR UP AND BACK. THE CAR WAS NOT MOVING.
