PASSENGER SIDE DRL HAS QUIT WORKING. I AM OUT OF WARRANTY BASED ON MILEAGE NOT MONTHS OF TIME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. HONDA DEALERSHIP WILL ONLY REPLACE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY (QUOTED AROUND $1,500 FOR 1 SIDE). I HAVE HEARD THAT THERE IS AN UPDATED DESIGN THEY ARE REPLACING THEM WITH. I WILL WAIT FOR THE DRIVER SIDE TO BURN OUT BEFORE CREATING AN ISSUE AT DEALERSHIP LEVEL. MANY COMPLAINTS AND MANY ACCORDS (ALL TRIM LEVELS) WITH THIS ISSUE. MY SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THAT THEY SEE SEVERAL EVERY WEEK! HONDA, DO THE RIGHT THING AND REPLACE THE DESIGN DEFECTIVE LIGHTS AT NO CHARGE!

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BOTH FRONT HEADLIGHT UNITS HAD THE LED STRIP AT THE BOTTOM AND CONTINUING UP THE SIDE GO OUT. AS THE HEADLIGHT IS ONE COMPLETE UNIT THE LED PORTION CAN NOT BE REPLACED WITHOUT A COMPLETE CHANGE OUT OF THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT UNIT. AN INTERNET SEARCH OF THE PROBLEM SHOWS THE PROBLEM IS VERY VERY VERY COMMON. A CALL TO HONDA CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE GARNERED NO HELP. MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. COST TO REPLACE EXCEEDS $1,500.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
FRONT HEADLIGHT LED STRIP (USED AS RUNNING LIGHTS) BURNED OUT. THE LED STRIPS ARE NOT ABLE TO BE REPLACED SEPARATELY. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT UNIT HAS TO BE REPLACED TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. ONE WENT OUT AND WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, AFTER THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THE OTHER STRIP WENT OUT. HONDA AMERICA OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE IN THE MATTER. VERY DANGEROUS TO NOT HAVE RUNNING LIGHTS. COST TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT UNIT (WHICH, AGAIN, IS REQUIRED TO REMEDY THE ISSUE) IS UPWARDS OF $1,500

BOTH THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRL) NO LONGER ILLUMINATE. THE PROBLEM CAN ONLY BE RESOLVED BY REPLACING THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WHICH WILL RUN AROUND OVER $2,000.00 ACCORDING TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT MUST BE INVESTIGATED TO DETERMINE THE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS OF THIS PARTICULAR HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY.

MY DRL (DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS) WENT OUT IN BOTH OF MY HEADLIGHT HOUSINGS. AND TO FIX THESE TWO LIGHTS BOTH OF THE HOUSINGS WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. BOTH OF THE LIGHTS WENT OUT RIGHT AFTER THE 35,000 WARRANTY RAN OUT.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (LED STRIP) ARE BURNED-OUT IN SEGMENTS. DRL'S ARE LISTED BY THE MANUFACTURER AS A SAFETY ITEM AND HONDA WILL NOT REPLACE UNLESS VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY. TYPICAL OUT OF POCKET EXPENSE RUNS FROM $400-$700 PER UNIT AS THEY ARE INCORPORATED IN EACH HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. COST IS UNREALISTIC FOR LIGHTING.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, UNKNOWN OR OTHER, EXTERIOR LIGHTING
BOTH MY ACCORDS DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BURNED OUT AFTER 30,000 MILES. IT IS APPARENTLY NOT FIXABLE SO TO FIX THIS WOULD BE A WHOLE NEW HEADLIGHT ? EVERY ACCORD I SEE ON THE ROAD NOW HAS THE DRLS BURNED OUT.. REALLY ANNOYING AND A SAFETY HAZARD AS ALMOST ALL NEWER VEHICLES COME STANDARD WITH THEM AND NOT BURNED OUT ALREADY.. AND COINCIDENTALLY AROUND THE TIME THE WARRANTY RUNS OUT. VERY DISAPPOINTING PLEASE RECALL ASAP. THANKS

ENGINE
I HAVE A TOURING TRIM OF THE HONDA ACCORD 2016, MEANING IT HAS A V6 ENGINE. AT AROUND 38,000 MILES, THE STARTER STARTED ACTING UP. WHEN I TRY TO START IT, IT MAKES A GRINDING NOISE AND WON'T START. I LIVED WITH IT FOR A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE I'M USUALLY ABLE TO GET IT TO START AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS. I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW STARTER FROM HONDA, INSTALLED IT, AND THE CAR WORKED PERFECTLY AGAIN. IT STARTED EVERY TIME. 1 WEEK LATER AND THE ISSUE STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AS OFTEN, BUT IT SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING AT ALL. IT'S A BRAND NEW STARTER AND I'M HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AS BEFORE. IT HAPPENS LIKE ONCE A DAY NOW. THE OLD STARTER WAS GIVING ME ISSUES EVERY OTHER TIME I TRIED TO START THE CAR. WON'T BE LONG BEFORE THE SAME HAPPENS WITH THIS BRAND NEW ONE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I MADE A COMPLAINT BEFORE NOT EXACTLY SURE OF THE DATE BUT IT WAS IN 2016. MY COMPLAINT WAS MY CAR ALMOST STALLS OUT. WHEN I AM STOPPED AND START UP AGAIN OR MAKE A TURN THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL AND I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE WHO TOLD ME THAT. MY BROTHER AND SISTER-IN-LAW DROVE MY CAR AND IT HAPPEN TO THEM. I'VE ALMOST GOTTEN HIT IN THE REAR END A FEW TIMES BECAUSE MY CAR DOESN'T PICK UP. THE LAST TIME A REP FROM HONDA TOLD ME TO TAKE THE CAR INTO THE HONDA DEALER TO CHECK OUT THE ENGINE BUT THE MECHANIC HE ONLY DROVE THE CAR AROUND THE LOT AND SAID EVERYTHING WAS OK BUT IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME AND I TOLD HIM THAT. I'M CONCERNED THAT I WILL GET EVENTUALLY GET REAR ENDED AND HURT. MOST RECENT IT HAPPENED AGAIN SO THAT'S WHY I'M COMPLAINING. SO, PLEASE TELL ME WHAT TO DO. THANK YOU

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
LED DAYLIGHT DRIVING SAFETY LIGHTS FAILED AT 44400 MI AND 2 3/4 YEARS OLD (OUT OF ANY WARRANTY) REQUIRING REPLACEMENT OF WHOLE DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AT A COST OF $736. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY POOR SAFETY DESIGN OF THE LEDS WITH NO MECHANISM FOR REPLACE BEYOND THE WHOLE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE DRIVING LIGHTS FAILED AND THERE WAS NO OBVIOUS INDICATION. OF THE FAILURE.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR ONLY 20,000 MILES, BOTH DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS SHUT OFF AND STOPPED WORKING. THE DAYTIME RUNNING HEADLIGHTS WERE NOT PART OF ANY HONDA WARRANTY DUE. THE DAY TIME RUNNING HEADLIGHT APPEAR TO BE AFFECTED BY A ELECTRICAL ISSUE OR POSSIBLY A DEFECT IN THE HEADLIGHT ITSELF. HONDA IS CHARGING CUSTOMERS WELL OVER $1,000 TO REPLACE EACH HEADLIGHT UNIT WHICH CONTAINS THE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS.

I FOUND OUT THAT THE DRIVER'S SIDE DAY LIGHT LED STRIP WENT OUT TODAY. GIVEN THAT I RARELY CHECK THE HEAD LIGHT CONDITION , IT SHOULD HAVE GONE OUT LONG TIME AGO. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND SEEMS LIKE 2016 ACCORD MODEL HAVE SAME PROBLEM. I WATCHED SO MANY YOU TUBE VIDEOS COMPLAINING THE SAME ISSUE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ACCORD. AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND TURNING THE ENGINE OFF, THE BATTERY POWER WOULD DRAIN AND THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY WITH A NEW BATTERY, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.
