STEERING
ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILURE AT LESS THAN 90,000 MILES. HAD WE BEEN DRIVING AT A HIGHER SPEED, WE AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD WOULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. WITHOUT ANY WARNING, THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILED AND IT WAS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER. IT TOOK ALL MY STRENGTH TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL.

I'VE NOTICED THAT THE CAR IS CONSUMING OIL AT LEAST 1 QUART BEFORE 1K MILES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT YONKERS HONDA ON 12/28/2018 AND THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED TO BRING BACK THE CAR AT 1K MILES FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST.

SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
3 LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH, TRACTION CONTROL, POWER STEERING, AND TPMS. DEALER SAYS ITS THE ABS MODULE. AT ONLY 53,000 MILES, I BELIEVE THIS IS PREMATURE FAILURE. POOR DESIGN ON HONDA BEHALF. SAME WITH THE SMALL OEM BATTERY HONDA PUTS IN THESE VEHICLES. ALSO FAILED PREMATURELY. HONDA NEEDS TO ISSUE RECALL FOR ABS MODULE. VEHICLE WAS IN PARK AND TOOK 5 ATTEMPTS TO START THE VEHICLE, VEHICLE WOULD START AND STALL, AFTER 5 ATTEMPTS VEHICLE STAYED ON WITH 3 WARNING LIGHTS AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AWAY.

STEERING
WENT CHRISTMAS SHOPPING, CAME OUT OF BEST BUY AND STARTED CAR TO GO HOME, NOTICED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN. TURNED CAR OFF, RESTARTED AND NOTICED THE SAME THING. WHILE TRYING TO TURN IT, IT PULSATES, AS IF THE SYSTEM IS ACTING UP. USED UBER TO GET HOME. CAME BACK THE NEXT DAY, THE SAME THING. DID SOME RESEARCH ON GOOGLE, THE ONLY WAY TO BYPASS POWER STEERING IS TO PULL THE FUSE SO WE PULLED THE FUSE AND DROVE CAR HOME IN MANUAL STEERING MODE. CHECKED CAR WITH OBD2 SCANNER, NO CODES. CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID THESE CARS DON'T HAVE STEERING PROBLEMS. HOWEVER, WHEN I CHECKED ON GOOGLE, IT LOOKS LIKE HONDA HAS HAD A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH STEERING ISSUES IN THE 2013/2014 ACCORD.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I TOOK MY CAR TO HONDA DEALERSHIP 2 WEEKS AGO.THEY REPROGRAM A KEY AND REPLACE A RECALL SENSOR, SO I WAS TOLD. THEY ALSO DID A SYSTEM UPDATE.SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE ISSUE WITH MY CAR. 1ST WAS A CHARGING SYSTEM WARNING, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS MY ALTERNATOR OR BATTERY, BUT THEY SAID WAS NOTHING. THREE DAYS AGO I GOT INTO MY CAR TO START IT AND IT WOULD NOT START STATED " FCW SYSTEM FAILED" AFTER 3 ATTEMPTS ITS STARTED BUT ACCELERATION WOULD NOT RESPOND. RMP STAYED BELOW 2000 EVEN WITH MY FOOT DEEP ON THE GAS PEDAL. I TURN THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR FOR 20 MINS , THEN IT ACCELERATOR CAME BACK. BUT FWC AND ALL SERVICE LIGHTS STAYED ON. WAKE UP THE NEXT DAY ALL LIGHTS WENT AWAY LIKE NOTHING HAD HAPPENED. TODAY I WAS DRIVING HOME AND THE ACCELERATION OCCUR AGAIN. WHILE ON THE HIGH WAY IT WOULD NOT RESPOND. MADE IT HOME SAFE. AS I WAS ABOUT TO GET IN MY CAR AGAIN IT WOULD NOT START. CAR HAS POWER BUT IS NOT STARTING. AT ONE POINT OF TRYING TO START MY MPH GAGED WAS FLICKING, EVEN AFTER I RELEASE THE START BUTTON. IVE READ MANY REPORTS BY CUSTOMERS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE FWC FAIL AS WELL AS THE STARTER SYSTEM. BASE ON MY RESEARCH IT SEEMS THAT ONLY HONDA ACCORD 2014 HAVING THIS ISSUE. HONDA CANT SEEM TO FIND THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM AND THIS IS BAD. WHATEVER THE CAUSE MAY BE HONDA NEEDS TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS. I WAS LEFT STRANDED WITH NO HELP AND NO ONE TO CALL ON. BECAUSE ONE MOMENT MY CAR WAS DRIVING LIKE THE 2014 CAR IT IS AND NEXT IT WAS NOT.

I AM HAVING THE SAME STARTER ISSUES AS SO MANY ON A BLOG THAT I WAS READING AFTER HAVING MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD FOR 4 YEAR. I JUST CAME BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD YOU NEED TO CHANGE THE STARTER AND THIS PART IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THEY QUOTED ME 865. THEN I COMPLAIN AND THEY CALLED THE HONDA REP AND THEY TOLD ME I HAD TO PAY 200. I AM STILL IN A STATE OF SHOCK AFTER SEEING ALL THESE COMPLAIN AND HONDA HASN'T ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE YET. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED WITH HONDA AND ITS REPUTATION

PRESSING THE START BUTTON WITH KEY FOB NEXT TO IT TURNS ON THE IGNITION AS WELL AS THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BUT DOES NOT CRANK THE ENGINE, WILL HAVE TO TRY MULTIPLE TIMES TO START THE ENGINE. THIS IS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY AND STARTED ABOUT A MONTH AGO, SEEMS TO BE GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS THE LAST INCIDENT REQUIRED REPEATING 6 TIMES TO GET THIS STARTED. PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND ONLY HAS 30K MILES, ALL MAINTENANCE PERFORMED AT THE DEALERSHIP. DISAPPOINTED TO EXPERIENCE SUCH ISSUE FROM A HONDA AS THE DECISION TO PURCHASE WAS SOLELY BASED ON THE REPUTATION OF HONDA.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE I AM NOT ABLE TO START THE CAR. THE BATTERY IS GOOD AND THE BATTERY IN THE KEY FOB HAS BEEN REPLACED. WHEN I PUSH THE BUTTON, NOTHING HAPPENS. AFTER AWHILE (A FEW MINUTES TO 30 MINUTES OR SO)THE CAR WILL CRANK. THIS IS HAPPENING MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. I AM CONCERNED THAT I WILL SOON BE STRANDED AND NOT ABLE TO WAIT THIS OUT.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING TROUBLE STARTING MY CAR RECENTLY. I PUSH THE START BUTTON HAVE MY FOOD ON THE BREAK AND IT TAKES A FEW TIMES SOMETIMES OVER 4 TIMES TO ACTUALLY START THE CAR. LIGHTS AND EVERYTHING COME ON WHEN I PUSH TO START BUT THE ENGINE IS NOT TURNING OVER. DEALERSHIP TESTED BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, STARTER, AND WIRING AND EVERYTHING LOOKED TO BE WORKING CORRECTLY. MY CAR WAS CHECKED TWICE FOR THE BATTERY SENSOR RECALL ISSUE AFFECTING MY MAKE AND MODEL AND IT CHECKED OUT FINE BOTH TIMES.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
LAST YES WHEN THE BATTERY WAS 3 YEARS OLD AND IT COMPLETELY DIED ON ME, HAD TO BUY A NEW ONE. I DIDN'T MIGHT SINCE IT WAS $150. A FEW MONTH (AUGUST 2018) AGO MY CAR WOULD NOT START FROM THE FIRST TIME I PUSH THE START BOTTOM AND I WOULD HAVE TO PUSH IT AGAIN FOR IT TO START. THIS HAPPENED ABOUT ONCE TO TWICE A WEEK. BUT OVER THE LAST MONTH (NOVEMBER 2018) THIS ISSUE REALLY INCREASED. STARTED TO HAPPEN MORE OFTEN AND THE CAR WOULD START AFTER THE 5TH OR 6TH ATTEMPT. CALLED THE DEALER THEY QUOTED ME OVER $500 TO FIX THE ISSUE AT A DISCOUNTED RATE. BUT MY STARTER SHOULD NOT BE GOING OUT THIS EARLY WHEN THE CAR IS ONLY 3 TO 4 YEARS OLD. THIS ISSUE MUST BE HAPPENING A LOT BECAUSE THE DEALER DIDN'T EVEN ASK TO DO A DIAGNOSTIC. AFTER I EXPLAIN MY PROBLEM THEY SAID QUOTED ME FOR THE STARTER. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THIS ISSUE BUT I CANNOT UPLOAD IT. I WILL PLACE IT ON YOUTUBE (HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/PYSDS6CNDNQ). WILL UPLOAD MORE VIDEOS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I ONLY PROBLEM I HAVE FOR THIS 2014 HONDA ACCORD LX VEHICLE IS THE STARTING ISSUE. SOMETIMES I CANNOT START THE CAR AND IT STRANDS ME ON THE ROADSIDE OR PARKING LOT SEVERAL TIMES. I WENT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY CHECKED THAT THERE'S NOTHING WRONG. I ALSO WENT TO OTHER AUTO REPAIR STORES SEVERAL TIMES. AND SOME OF THEM SAID IT'S THE STARTER'S PROBLEM; OTHERS SAID IT'S ALTERNATOR OR BATTERY'S PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. AND WHEN THE WEATHER BECOMES COLD, THE CAR CANNOT BE STARTED MORE FREQUENTLY THAN WARM DAYS. THIS PROBLEM CAUSES ME BIG TROUBLES BECAUSE I HAVE TO PAY A LOT TO JUMP START IT. AND IT LEFT ME ON THE ROAD WHICH IS UNSAFE. THE CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD AND ONLY 55000 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THERE ARE SO MANY SIMILAR CASES WITH OTHER HONDA OWNER ON THE INTERNET. I SERIOUSLY THINK THAT HONDA SHOULD TAKE CARE OF THE PROBLEM AND MAKE A SAFETY RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
3 DASHBOARD LIGHTS APPEAR ILLUMINATED ON DASHBOARD ALL AT ONCE WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THESE THREE LIGHTS THAT REMAIN ILLUMINATED INCLUDE 1) ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM (ABS) LIGHT, 2) VEHICLE STABILITY CONTROL SYSTEM (VSC) LIGHT, AND 3) ELECTRIC POWER STEERING LIGHT. HONDA DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE ABS MODULATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND THAT MY CAR WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY ANYMORE (3YRS OR 36K MILES). THE QUOTE I RECIEVED TO REPLACE THE ABS MODULATOR FROM THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WAS $1,700. I DECIDED TO GOOGLE ABS MODULATOR FOR HONDA ACCORD TO SEE IF THERE WERE OTHER ACCORD OWNERS THAT HAVE A SIMILAR ISSUE. UPON SEARCH FROM YOUTUBE AND HONDA FORUMS, I FOUND THERE TO BE OTHER OWNERS THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 3 LIGHTS ILLUMINATED (ABS, VSC AND ELECTRIC POWER STEERING) AND THE REPAIR COST IF NOT UNDER WARRANTY CAN RANGE FROM $1,300 TO AS HIGH AS $2,000 FROM WHAT I SAW OTHER HONDA ACCORD OWNERS TO REPORT. I FEEL AS THOUGH HONDA IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY TO REPAIR THIS OUTSIDE OF THE WARRANTY AND FEEL AS THOUGH THEY SOLD ME A DYSFUNCTIONAL CAR. I FEEL COMPELLED TO WRITE THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE MY CAR VALUE IS 10K AND TO REPAIR THE ABS MODULATOR I WOULD HAVE TO FORK UP NEARLY 20% OF MY CARS VALUE FOR AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE THAT WAS PERHAPS FAULTY DESIGN ON HONDAS PART. THANK YOU FOR TAKING THE TIME TO READ THIS AND I HOPE YOU INVESTIGATE IT FURTHER.

WE HAVE APPROXIMATELY 34,000 MILES ON OUR 2014 HONDA ACCORD V6. AS MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED, THERE IS A FAULTY STARTER ISSUE. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY, AND WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, WE DEPRESS THE PUSH START BUTTON AND HEAR MANY CLICKS BUT NO TURN OVER OF THE ENGINE. WE HAVE TO MAKE SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO START THE ENGINE. UPON CALLING THE DEALERSHIP, THEY WERE WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT STATED HONDA HAS YET TO DO ANYTHING TO RESOLVE THE WIDESPREAD PROBLEM.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
MY CAR WAS STATIONARY. IT WAS PARKED AT A SHOPPING MALL PARKING LOT . WHEN I CAME BACK AFTER SHOPPING MY CAR WON'T START. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE WITHIN A MONTH. THE ELECTRIC INGITION IS NOT WORKING. THIS IS ELECTRIC START FAILURE. THERE SHOULD BE AN URGENT RECALL. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AS IT KEEPS HAPPENING EVEN WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD.
