MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD EX STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH INTERMITTENT STARTING AROUND 45,000 MILES.

STEERING
WE PURCHASED THE HONDA ACCORD 2013 V6 10/22/2017. STEERING WHEEL WAS TIGHT WE NOTICED ,THAT NIGHT OF THE 23RD, 2ND TIME DRIVING IT MY SON TURNED THE CORNER AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND HE RAN INTO THE CEMENT POLE AND TOTALED HIS CAR. WE DIDN'T EVEN HAVE IT ONE FULL DAY. WE LATER LOOKED UP ON THE INTERNET THAT HONDA WAS UNDER INVESTIGATION FOR POWER STEERING LOCKING UP OR ELECTRICAL AND SAW PEOPLE TOTALED THERE CARS OR HAD THE SAME ISSUES 464K CASES. MY SON WAS HURT BUT COULD HAVE BEEN WORSE. HONDA NEEDS TO BE SUED FOR THIS AND I WANT IN ON IT. THE CAR WAS IN MY NAME I BOUGHT FOR MY 21 YR OLD SON AFTER HIS CAR FLOODED IN HARVEY. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE IMMEDIATELY.

MY STARTER IS BEING REPLACED FOR INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. MY MECHANIC VERY EXPERIENCED AND I HAVE BEEN USING FOR YEARS MADE THE DIAGNOSIS. I WAS PRESENT FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST. MY CAR IS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD WITH LESS THEN 44000 MILES. I HAVE OWNED 3 HONDA'S ALL STILL IN THE FAMILY. I HAD A 2002 WITH THE ORIGINAL STARTER, WHICH MY DAUGHTER NOW OWNS AND I HAVE A 2010 WITH ALMOST 100,000 WITH THE ORIGINAL STARTER. SOMETHING IS WRONG WHEN YOU HAVE TO CHANGE A STARTER ON A 4 YR OLD CAR WITH LOW MILEAGE. I HAVE ALSO HAD TO CHANGE THE BATTERY IN THE 2013 LAST JANUARY WITH LESS THEN 40,000 MILES ON IT. I CHANGES THE BATTERY MYSELF.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
MY MOTHER OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD LX AND SHE WAS PUT INTO A VERY DANGEROUS POSITION TODAY AND HONDA IS LUCKY THAT NO ONE WAS KILLED OR SERIOUSLY INJURED!! SHE WAS PULLING INTO A PARKING STALL AT HER WORKPLACE, HER FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE AND SHE WAS CREEPING INTO THE STALL AS PER NORMAL. THE CAR THEN SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ONTO A BUNCH OF BUSHES AND THE SIDE WALK BEFORE SHE WAS ABLE TO COMPLETELY STOP THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM ONLINE WITH HUNDREDS OF STORIES SHARING THE EXACT SAME THING (PLEASE SEE LINK HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/HONDA/ACCORD/CAR-ACCELERATES-ON-ITS-OWN-PROBLEMS.PHP). HONDA NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM AND TAKE COMPLETE RESPONSIBILITY AND FIX IT ASAP! THEY COMPLETELY SIDE-STEPPED MY DIRECT LINE OF QUESTIONING AND ARE HIDING SOMETHING. I AM FILING A FORMAL POLICE REPORT WITH LOCAL HOUSTON PD. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED OR THE NHTSA AND HONDA WILL HAVE A LAW SUIT ON THEIR HANDS.

THE CAR WILL NOT START INTERMITTENTLY. SOMETIMES IT CAN TAKE 10-30 MINUTES TO TRY AND START IT WITH THE KEY. YOU WILL TURN THE KEY AND IT CLICKS BUT NOTHING ENGAGES. WE HAD A NEW KEY MADE THINKING IT MAY BE THE CHIP IN THE KEY CAUSING IT NOT TO START. THAT WAS NOT THE CASE. TOOK IT IN TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TODAY AFTER MY DAUGHTER BEING STRANDED YESTERDAY BECAUSE IT WOULDN'T CRANK. SERVICE TECH SAYS ITS THE STARTER. OBVIOUSLY THESE 2013 HONDAS HAVE AN ISSUE, IT'S ALL OVER GOOGLE AND YOUTUBE WITH MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND ALL LOW MILEAGE.
