WHEELS
I HAD TWO TIRES BLOW IN LESS THEN A MONTH. THEY'RE MICHELIN TIRES. WAS TOLD BY HONDA I RAN OVER SOMETHING BUT THERE WAS NO PUNCTURE AT ALL IN MY TIRE. IT WAS A PERFECT BLOW. THE LIGHT LITERALLY CAME ON A TWO SECONDS LATER WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY IT BLEW. I NEARLY WRECKED AND WAS KILLED. THE SECOND SECOND TIME I WAS ON THE THE ROAD MAYBE A MINUTE AND THE LIGHT CAME ON. CAME RIGHT HOME AND CALLED HONDA. I REFUSED TO DRIVE MY CAR DOWN TO THEM BC OF WHAT HAPPENED LAST TIME. I KNOW THIS IS A MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND I WANT MY $230.00 BACK FOR THE ONE TIRE I REPLACED AND ALL NEW TIRES. THIS IS NOT A SAFE CAR RIGHT NOW. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE TOO. I HAD A HONDA BEFORE THIS CAR AND NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES LIKE I'M HAVING NOW.

ENGINE
WHEN I DRIVE MY CAR IT STALLS AND HESITATES WHEN ACCELERATING AND DRIVING. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THIS INVOLVING THE SHORT BOX AND IT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT OR IF THE OLD LEAKS IT CAN CATCH ON FIRE. THE RECALL IS PRINTED ON THE INTERNET. I WILL EMAIL IT TO YOU LATER AS I DO NAT HAVE IT WITH ME. THIS HAS HAPPENED EVERY MONTH AND MANY TIMES EVERY MONTH. THEY WILL NOT FIX IT AND THEY WILL NOT CALL ME BACK. I WANT A NEW CAR UNDER THE LEMON LAW. PLEASE HELP. OTHERS NEED TO KNOW THERE IS A DANGER HERE BUT THIS IS TOP SECRET.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ENGINE MISFIRES AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS WITH THE TACHOMETER SURGING 1,000 RPM'S WITH EACH MISFIRE. YOU CANNOT MAINTAIN YOUR SPEED AND THEREFORE ARE NOT ABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. TOOK IT TO A DEALER WHO STATED SOMEONE ELSE HAD RECENTLY BEEN IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT COULD NOT RECREATE THE PROBELM ON A TEST DRIVE. THEY RESET THE COMPUTER TO FACTORY SETTINGS, BUT DIDN'T HEAR BACK YET FROM THE OWNER IF IT RESOLVED THE ISSUE. THEY DIDN'T RESET MY CAR'S COMPUTER, HOWEVER. MY PROBLEM APPEARS TO MATCH THAT OF NHTSA ID NUMBER 10838521.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I BOUGHT A NEW HONDA ACCORD ABOUT 7 MONTHS AGO. I NOTICED AFTER DRIVING IT A MONTH OR MORE THAT EVERY LONG ONCE IN A WHILE IT WAS SHOWING ME A DEFECT KNOWN AS "UNINTENDED ACCELERATION". I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND AFTER THEY EXAMINED IT, PUT IT ON THE COMPUTER MACHINE AND TEST DROVE IT A FEW MILES, THEY FOUND IT TO BE PERFECT, NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. I TOOK IT BACK AND CONTINUED DRIVING IT THINKING THAT PERHAPS I DID SOMETHING THAT CAUSED IT.AS I CONTINUED ON WITH IT, I PULLED INTO MY HANDICAP SPACE AT MY PARKING LOT. FRONT END UP TO A CONCRETE BUNKER WITH THE HANDICAP SIGN STANDING TALL IN FRONT. I WAS ABOUT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND SHUT THE KEY OFF, WHEN SUDDENLY WHILE MY FEET WERE OFF THE PEDALS THE CAR ZOOMED UP TO 40 MPH,I TURNED THE WHEEL LEFT TO TRY AND AVOID THE SIGN AFTER IT HIT THE BUNKER AND AS IT SPED INTO THE NEXT PARKING LANE I BRAKED AND SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL.LUCKILY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC IN THE SECOND LANE OR I WOULD HAVE KILLED SOMEBODY AS WELL AS MYSELF.I TOOK IT TO TWO MORE DEALERS WITH A DAMAGED PASSENGER FENDER AND THEY ALL SAID AFTER LOOKING AND TESTING AGAIN THAT THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. THE LAST DEALER BROUGHT A HONDA EXPERT MECHANIC IN FROM THE MANUFACTURER AND HE TOO SAID NOTHING'S WRONG. WITHOUT EVIDENCE THEY CAN DO NOTHING FOR ME.IF WE CAN'T FIND THE TROUBLE YOU SAY IS THERE, WE CAN'T ACCOMODATE YOU. I SAID, SO YOUR SENDING ME HOME NOW TO GET KILLED?SORRY BUT THERE'S NO PROOF. I CALLED HONDA MANUFACTURER AND THEY WOULD DO NOTHING.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
WHILE OVERTAKING A LARGE TRUCK (SEMI), IN THE FAST LANE OF A FOUR LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL FLASHED A WARNING AND AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED HEAVY BRAKING AS MY VEHICLE WAS EVEN WITH THE REAR OF THE SEMI TRAILER. THIS CAUSED THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO NEARLY REAR-END MY CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR, AND SEEMS TO BE MORE FREQUENT LATELY. I AM NERVOUS ABOUT USING THE ACC WHEN APPROACHING OR PASSING A LARGE SEMI TRACTOR TRAILER. I HAVE SEEN OTHER COMMENTS REGARDING THE SAME SITUATION POSTED ON THE INTERNET. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, AND SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED.

SUSPENSION, WHEELS
I AM CURRENTLY LEASING A 2015 ACCORD. I TOOK MY CAR TO WAL-MART TO HAVE TIRES ROTATED AND WAS INFORMED THEY COULD NOT ROTATE DUE TO MY REAR TIRES CUPPING. I TOOK IT TO HONDA CAR SERVICE AND WAS INFORMED MY REAR TIRES WERE CUPPING AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHY. MY ALIGNMENT WASN'T BAD. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD ROTATE THEM AND BALANCE AND DO A NEW ALIGNMENT. THEY TOLD ME MY CAR WOULD BE LOUD DUE TO PUTTING THE CUPPING TIRES IN FRONT. I HAVE LEARNED OTHER PEOPLE WITH HIGH MILE HONDA ACCORD 2015 ARE HAVING SAME ISSUE WHERE THE CHAMBER IS OFF. THE ONLY WAY CURRENTLY I CAN GET MY TO STOP SOUNDING LIKE A TRACTOR TRAILER IS TO BUY NEW TIRES HOWEVER WITH THE CHAMBER BEING OFF IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN AND THE NEW TIRES WILL CUP TOO. I AM GOING TO CONTACT HONDA AGAIN AND SEE WHAT THEY CAN DO HOWEVER I HEARD HONDA IS NOT AGREEING THAT CAMBER IS OFF.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THIS VEHICLE HAS NO DASHBOARD INDICATOR TO INFORM YOU WHEN THE WASHER FLUID IS LOW. THIS MAY SOUND LIKE A SMALL THING, HOWEVER, THE POINT WHEN YOU RUN OUT WITHOUT WARNING IS WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD. THIS HAPPENED TO ME ON THE HIGHWAY THIS WINTER WITH A LOT OF SALTY SPRAY COMING OFF THE ROAD. THE RESULT WAS A STREAKY MESS THAT I COULD BARELY SEE THROUGH. FORTUNATELY, I CARRY A GALLON OF FLUID WITH ME SO I STOPPED AND FILLED IT ON THE SPOT. ACCORDING TO THE OWNERS MANUAL, THE INDICATOR IS ONLY FOUND ON CANADIAN MODELS.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN YOU PRESSURE ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO POWER THE VEHICLE (LIKE PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR CHANGING LANES IN TRAFFIC, THE CAR STALLS AND PUT YOU AT RISK OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. IT HAPPENS SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR DRIVING 55 MPH AND TRYING TO CHANGE LANES. DOES NOT MATTER IF THE CAR IS WARM OR COLD, BUT OCCURS LESS WHEN COLD.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, STEERING, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE FIRST PROBLEM OCCURRED OCTOBER 22ND, 2015. I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AND I WENT TO CHANGE THE VOLUME (UP AND DOWN) ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND IT WAS NOT REGISTERING TO THE CAR. I THEN TRIED CHANGING THE STATION WITH THE LEFT AND RIGHT BUTTONS, AND NOTHING CHANGED. I PROCEEDED TO TRY USING THE TOUCHSCREEN AND I WOULD PRESS FIRMLY AND THE STATIONS WOULD NOT CHANGE. I WOULD HAVE TO STOP, TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON SEVERAL TIMES, THEN IT WOULD RANDOMLY WORK AGAIN. SOMETIMES IT WOULD NOT WORK TILL THE NEXT DAY. I TOOK MY CAR IN, SHOWED THEM THE VIDEO(S), AND THEY SAID THEY REBOOTED/RESTARTED/UPDATED THE FIRMWARE OR THE 'SYSTEM' AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN TO JUST COME IN. MY CAR IS CURRENT BACK IN THE SHOP, AND NOW I HAVE SEVEN VIDEOS DOCUMENTED OF THIS HAPPENING, ALL WITH THE SAME ISSUE RECURRING, ON DECEMBER 2ND, 2015, DECEMBER 15TH, 2015, JANUARY 17TH, 2016, AND JANUARY 21ST, 2016. I CAN SEND ALL VIDEOS TO AN EMAIL BUT IT WILL NOT LET ME UPLOAD IT ON THE WEBSITE. PLEASE NOTE, EVERY TIME THIS SITUATION HAS HAPPENED, YOU CAN SEE IN THE VIDEOS, I AM DRIVING AND/OR STATIONED. MORNING, NIGHT, TURNING, DRIVING FORWARD, AND REVERSING EVEN. I CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS AND/OR COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND I COULD NOT FIND ANY. I HONESTLY DO NOT FEEL SAFE SINCE THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR WITH UNDER 9K MILES.

SERVICE BRAKES
I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE AT THE END OF DECEMBER 2015 WITH 100 MILES ON IT. BY THE END OF JUNE, I NOTICED WHEN I WOULD BRAKE I WOULD FEEL VIBRATION IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS WOULD HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET, ANY MILEAGE OVER 55. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE ROTORS NEED TO BE RESURFACED. THIS OCCURRED AGAIN TOWARDS THE END OF JANUARY 2016. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER ON FEBRUARY 5, 2016 AND WAS ADVISED THAT THE ROTORS WOULD NEED TO BE RESURFACED AGAIN. I WAS ALSO ADVISED THAT HONDA WOULD ONLY PAY FOR ONE OF THESE PROCEDURES AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE OTHER. I ASKED THE SALESMAN IF THIS WAS AN FREQUENT OCCURRENCE WITH HONDA? WERE THE ROTORS OR BRAKES INEXPENSIVE? HE ASKED THAT MOST LIKELY WAS NOT THE CASE BECAUSE THERE WERE A LOT OF HONDAS ON THE ROAD. THIS WASN'T A JUSTIFIABLE ANSWER FOR ME SO I ADVISED HIM THAT I WOULD DO MY OWN RESEARCH AND REPORT THIS ISSUE IF NECESSARY.

SEATS
THE 2015 HONDA ACCORD DRIVER AND SHOTGUN-PASSENGER SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE, ESPECIALLY THE LACK OF LUMBAR SUPPORT AND THE PRESENCE OF TERRIBLY ANGLED/DESIGNED HEADRESTS. AFTER THE DRIVING THE CAR FOR NO MORE THAN 45 MINUTES, YOU WILL FIND THAT: 1. YOUR LEFT LEG IS SLEEPING 2. YOUR NECK AND BACK ARE ACHING 3. YOUR HEAD IS ANGLED FORWARD IN AN ABNORMAL FASHION. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. SEE FURTHER COMPLAINTS AT: HTTP://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/ACCORD/2015/ACCESSORIES-INTERIOR/EXTREMELY_UNCOMFORTABLE_SEATS.SHTML
