ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
THE STEERING WHEEL FROZE UP ON ME AT START UP. I TURNED IT OFF AND IT WORKED CORRECTLY UNTIL THE NEXT TIME. AFTER THE THIRD TIME I READ ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS OTHERS WERE HAVING AND KNEW THAT IT COULD FREEZE UP WHILE I WAS DRIVING SO I TOOK IT TO MY DEALER MARCH 19 2018. HONDA DOESN'T WANT TO TALK TO ME ABOUT IT. I WILL FIX IT AND HOPE FOR A RECALL. IT WILL COST ME AT LEAST $700. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
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.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
MY SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT ABOUT 70 MPH! IT WAS DEFINITELY NOT HIT BY ANYTHING. YOU CAN SEE IN ONE OF THE PHOTOS HOW IT BLEW OUTWARD. FORTUNATELY, MOST OF THE GLASS WENT OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND I WAS NOT INJURED, BUT IT WAS EXTREMELY LOUD AND TERRIFYING! I WAS STILL ABOUT TWO HOURS AWAY FROM HOME SO I CLOSED THE SHADE GUARD SO THAT THE GLASS WOULD NOT FALL INSIDE ON ME. I COULD HEAR PIECES FALLING AND HITTING THE SHADE GUARD THE REST OF THE WAY HOME. THIS WAS NOT COVERED BY MY WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH IN MY OPINION IT SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED AND WAS A DEFECT AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
VEHICLE WILL NOT START AT TIMES AND THERE IS A CLICKING SOUND. IN THE BEGINNING, IT HAPPENED MAYBE TWICE A MONTH AND IT WOULD START AFTER A FEW SECONDS. IT HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND IT'S AN EVERYDAY OCCURRENCE, SEVERAL TIMES A DAY. ONE DAY IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL. I LEFT IT FOR APPROXIMATELY AN HOUR AND WHEN I LATER TRIED TO START IT, IT STARTED WITH NO HESITATION. IT IS NOT THE BATTERY, BECAUSE I REPLACED THE BATTERY THINKING THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. EVERYTHING ELSE IN THE CAR WORKS EVEN WHEN THE CAR WON'T START.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I ONLY HAVE 29,600+ MILES ON MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD WITH TROUBLE STARTING CAR ENGINE. SOMETIMES IT TAKES 2 TO 3 TIMES BEFORE ENGINE STARTS. I BROUGHT TO MY HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT I AM LOOKING AT A $700+ BILL TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE STARTER. I SEE THAT OTHER OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
PROBLEM: SEEMS TO BE WITH IGNITION. WHILE CAR IS STATIONARY, THE VEHICLE FAILS AT THE INITIAL TURN OF THE KEY FOR IGNITION. FAILURE OF IGNITION MAY HAPPEN 2-3 TIMES BEFORE CAR WILL RUN. NOT ONLY HAS THIS NOW HAPPENED MORE THAN HALF A DOZEN TIMES, BUT WE ARE ALSO SEEING LARGER NUMBER OF TRIES BEFORE THE VEHICLE WILL START. (EXAMPLE: FIRST SEVERAL OCCURRENCES THE CAR WOULD START AFTER 1-2 TRIES. NOW IT IS MORE COMMON TO TAKE 2-3 TRIES BEFORE IGNITION.) THIS COULD CAUSE ANY OF US TO BE STRANDED UNEXPECTANTLY...ESPECIALLY CONCERNED IF THIS HAPPENS ON A TRIP AWAY FROM HOME, &/OR TO WIFE OR DAUGHTER ALONE. WE HEARD OTHER YEARS OF SAME HONDA ACCORD IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. SO WE WERE SURPRISED NOT TO SEE OUR MAKE AND MODEL LISTED FOR RECALL.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I PURCHASED 2014 HONDA ACCORD SPORT NEW IN MARCH 2014. AFTER 33000 MILES THE STARTER BEGAN TO NOT START THE ENGINE AFTER THE FIRST ATTEMPT AND SOMETIMES THE SECOND OR THIRD ATTEMPT.I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO LIBERTY HONDA HARTFORD CT. FOR SERVICE.DEALER SAID THE STARTER WAS DEFECTIVE AND NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY SINCE THE TIME WAS OVER THE 3YEAR COVERAGE PERIOD EVENTHOUGH THE MILEAGE WAS UNDER THE 36000 MILES.DEALER SAID 2014 AND 2015 YEARS HAD SOME BAD STARTERS INSTALLED BY FACTORY.I PAID FOR NEW STARTER INSTALLED FOR $775. WHY DID HONDA PUT BAD STARTERS IN CARS THAT WOULD BECOME DEFECTIVE SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRATION? MANY COMPLAINTS FROM 2014 & 2015 HONDA ACCORD OWNERS ABOUT THE PROBLEM.HONDA SHOULD HAVE ISSUED A REPAIR BASED ON GOODWILL. DEALER SAID NO. WHEN YOU CAN'T START THE CAR QUICKLY THAT'S A SAFETY ISSUE. CAR WOULD NOT START QUICKLY WHILE PARKED IN DRIVEWAY OVERNIGHT,PARKED AT A STORE PARKING WITH ENGINE STILL WARM OR PARKED ON CITY STREET WITH ENGINE STILL WARM.TIME OF YEAR WAS APRIL AND MAY 2018.

ENGINE
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.
