BOUGHT 2013 HONDA ACCORD SEDAN SPORT ON 06/13. I JUST REACHED THE 32000MILES AND MY STARTER IS SLIPPING AND CAUSING ME TO TURN THE IGNITION A FEW TIMES BEFORE IT STARTS. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THERE MAY BE A FAULT ON THE PRODUCT OR INSTALLATION OF PART.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
(FROM THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT'S INVOICE ON 08/09/16) 2 SENSOR ONE WIRES CHEWED ON BY RODENT SHORTING PCM. TRIGGERED SHUT OFF. REPLACED SENSOR. MY COMPLAINT IS THAT THE WIRES WERE NOT VINYL BUT WERE SOY AND THAT'S THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THE CAR HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. SINCE THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, I WAS CHARGED $422 TO REPLACE THE SENSOR. I WANT A REFUND. I UNDERSTAND THAT THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAW SUIT AGAINST HONDA OVER THE ISSUE OF THE SOY COATED WIRES. ( MY HUSBAND, ROY BAKER, IS MOST FAMILIAR WITH THIS ISSUE.)

ENGINE
MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD SPORT EXPERIENCED ENGINE STARTING PROBLEM. SOMETIMES IT TOOK 3 OR 4 TIMES TO TURN THE KEY TO GET THE CAR STARTED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE SUNNYVALE HONDA DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC AND THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE STARTER PROBLEM. IT COSTS ME $936 TO REPLACE THE STARTER INCLUDING PARTS AND LABOR. I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT MY CAR IS ONLY ABOUT 4 YEARS OLD WITH LESS THAN 40K MILEAGE HAVING THE STARTER ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WHAT A SHAME WITH THE HONDA BRAND!!!

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I HAVE A 2013 HONDA ACCORD AND I HAVE BEEN THE ONLY OWNER. I RECENTLY HAD TO REPLACE THE STARTER! IT'S REDICULOUS TO HAVE TO DO THAT ON A 2013. I WOULD PRESS THE START BUTTON AND IT WOULD JUST CLICK. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS, IT WOULD FINALLY START.

START BUTTON ISSUE ON 2013 HONDA ACCORD. PERIODICALLY, THE START BUTTON DOES NOT START THE CAR. IT SOUNDS LIKE STATIC. THE CAR EVENTUALLY WILL START AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. I NOTED MANY COMPLAINTS OF SUCH A SIMILAR PROBLEM ON CARGURUS.COM WEB BLOG. MY CAR ONLY HAS 42,000 MILES. THE DEALER SAID IT WAS THE STARTER AND IT HAS BEEN REPLACED AT A COST OF $1,018.61.

STRUCTURE:BODY, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING
IN THE FEW YEARS I'VE HAD MY CAR, WHICH I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF AND HAVE LOW MILEAGE ON, THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING SUDDENLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING (VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS!), THE DRIVER'S SIDE SUN VISOR BROKE ONE DAY WHEN I WAS TRYING TO PUT IT BACK UP, AND THE DASHBOARD SENSORS GO OFF UNNECESSARILY. VERY DISAPPOINTING FROM A HONDA VEHICLE. BEWARE!

STEERING
I MADE A RIGHT HAND TURN AND PROCEEDED DOWN THE STREET. THE POWER STEERING DID NOT WORK AS I STARTED DOWN THE STREET. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER TO SIDE OF STREET. THE INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. WAITED 5 MINUTES THEN CONTINUED DRIVING, POWER STEERING DID NOT WORK AGAIN AND INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. AS I PROCEEDED TO PULL OVER AGAIN THE POWER STEERING BEGAN TO WORK. LUCKILY I WAS TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED WHEN THE POWERING STEERING FAILED.

AIR BAGS, SERVICE BRAKES, ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
CAR WAS IN DRIVE OF HOME, STARTED CAR AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS STAYED ON. WOULD NOT CLEAR. DROVE VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP, BRAKES WERE BARLEY OPERABLE, CAR WAS SLUGGISH AND POWER STEERING ALMOST NON-EXISTENT. COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS HAD THIS HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY. DEALERSHIP FIRST REPLACED THE BATTERY, CLEARING THE CODES FOR A FEW MINUTES, THE NEXT DAY THEY ARE REPLACING A BAD VSA MODULE THAT CONTROL THE ABS AND OTHER SAFETY FUNCTIONS OF THE CAR. THE ACCORD ONLY HAS 67K MILES AND THESE SENSORS ARE 1700 PLUS DOLLARS. RESEARCHING, I HAVE FOUND A GREAT DEAL OF THESE FAILING -USUALLY WHEN THE HONDA IS IN MOTION. I WAS FORTUNATE MINE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME.

STEERING
WHILE ON VACATION IN THE MOUNTAINS OF TENNESSEE THE EPS INDICATOR CAME ON THE INSTRUMENT DISPLAY. THAT WAS FAILURE OF THE POWER STEERING! IT CAME ON WHEN STARTING THE CAR AFTER DRIVING IT FOR A SHORT SLOW DRIVE, WHICH SEEMS TO BE THE MAJOR CONTRIBUTING FACTOR--SLOW SPEED WITH ACCELERATION. AFTER HAVING THE SOFTWARE UPDATED (WHICH DID NOT FIX THIS ISSUE) I AM BEING TOLD ONLY THE RACK & PINION PORTION OF THE EPS HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO BE COVERED BY HONDA AND NOT THE EPS CONTROL UNIT WHICH IS THE CODE MY CAR IS SHOWING. EXCUSE ME! THE STEERING OF A VEHICLE IS A MAJOR DEAL. HONDA SHOULD FIX THIS AND BE GLAD TO DO IT. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY. I AM BEING TOLD THE REPAIR COST IS ABOUT $750. THIS HAS REALLY PUT A BAD TASTE IN MY MOUTH FOR HONDA; THIS IS THE FOURTH ACCORD I HAVE OWNED BUT WILL PROBABLY BE THE LAST ONE. SHAME ON HONDA FOR NOT STANDING BEHIND THEIR VEHICLES AND COMPONENTS. SHAME ON THE NHTSA FOR NOT FORCING THEM TO RECALL THESE CARS AND KEEP US ALL SAFER ON THE ROADWAYS WHEN THE COMPLAINTS ARE NUMEROUS FOR THE SAME ISSUE!
