SEATS, VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
STEERING WHEEL OCCLUDES THE SPEEDOMETER. ANALOG SPEEDOMETER IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DASHBOARD AND VERY LARGE. DEPENDING ON THE POSITION OF THE STEERING WHEEL YOU LOOSE AT LEAST 25 MPH RANGE (EITHER ON THE LOW OR HIGH END OF THE SPECTRUM). THERE IS NO DIGITAL READOUT WHICH WOULD BE A SIMPLE FIX TO THIS ISSUE AS THE LOW CENTER PART OF THE SPEEDOMETER "RING" IS ALWAYS VISIBLE. ALSO, THE DRIVER'S SEAT HAS A BUILT IN ARCH THAT DOES NOT FIT EVER BODY. IT IS NOT ADJUSTABLE AND (DEPENDING ON HEIGHT) POKES YOU IN THE MID-LOW BACK AND DOESN'T LET THE UPPER BACK GET SUPPORT OR RELAX INTO THE SEAT. RESULT IS VERY TIGHT AND SPASMED BACK MUSCLES. THIS GETS WORSE OVER TIME.

VISIBILITY/WIPER, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE REAR WINDOW IS DISTORTED WHICH PREVENTS A CLEAR AND ACCURATE VIEW OF ALL OBJECTS BEHIND THE VEHICLE. THIS DISTORTION AFFECTS THE ENTIRE BACK WINDOW AND IT CAUSES THE OBJECTS VIEWED THROUGH THE WINDOW TO BE WAVY AND DISTORTED. ITS EFFECTS ARE MAGNIFIED IN WET WEATHER AND AT NIGHT. THE DISTORTION PREVENTS THE OPERATOR FROM ACCURATELY JUDGING THE SIZE, SPEED AND DISTANCE OF THE VEHICLES TRAVELING BEHIND THE VEHICLE. THE DISTORTION OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AND STATIONARY. I INSPECTED SEVERAL SIMILAR ACCORDS AT THE DEALER AND THEY HAD THE SAME DISTORTED REAR WINDOW. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALER ACKNOLWEDGED THE DISTORTION, BUT CLAIMED IT COULDN'T BE FIXED.

SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
LOTS OF VIBRATION WHEN IDLE WITH BRAKES. VIBRATION FELT IN MY FOOT AND STEERING WHEEL. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP TWICE AND THEY CLAIM THAT IS HOW HONDA LX DRIVE AND OTHER CUSTOMERS MADE SAME COMPLAINT. TOO MUCH VIBRATION FOR A BRAND NEW CAR. IT IS NOT RIGHT FOR THEM TO GET AWAY WITH THESE KINDS OF ISSUE. CANNOT ENJOY NEW CAR EXPERIENCE DUE TO THIS ISSUE

SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
SINCE DAY 1, HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH A NOTICEABLE CLUNKING NOISE WHILE GOING OVER BUMPS.AFTER 4 REPAIR ATTEMPTS AT A HONDA DEALERSHIP THAT LED TO TIGHTENING OF 'LOOSE'(AS PER THE MECHANIC AND PAPERWORK) NUTS AND BOLTS, ADJUSTMENTS OF THE RACK, REPLACEMENT OF BOTH FRONT STRUTS AS WELL AS REPLACEMENT OF THE FRONT STEERING RACK,THE NOISE CONTINUED. DURING THE 5TH REPAIR ATTEMPT AFTER MEETING WITH AN ENGINEER FROM HONDA AS WELL AS THE HONDA CERTIFIED MECHANIC, THE MECHANIC TELLS ME THAT THE SUBFRAME BECAME UNGLUED. THE NEW DESIGN OF THE HONDA SUBFRAME IS NOW GLUED AND NOT WELDED, IN ORDER TO MAKE THE VEHICLE LIGHTER AND MORE FUEL EFFICIENT. I AM TOLD BY A HONDA ENGINEER THAT HONDA TECH LINE IS NOW AWARE OF THIS ISSUE(WHICH TELLS ME THERE HSVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS). EVEN AFTER THE ENTIRE SUBFRAME WAS RECENTLY REPLACED, I CONTINUE TO HAVE FRONT END ISSUES WITH MY BRAND NEW CAR INCLUDING CREAKING AND VIBRATION. I AM CURRENTLY WORKING WITH A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY AND NOW HAVE HAD 5 REPAIR ATTEMPTS ON THIS VEHICLE. THIS SUBFRAME ISSUE CERTAINLY IS A SAFETY MATTER AND FAILURE OF SUCH COULD LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC ACCIDENTS. THIS HAS AND CONTINUES TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM. THE 'GLUED' SUBFRAMES IN THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS HONDA IS THEIR TOP OF THE LINE 'TOURING' MODEL WHICH HAS ADDITIONAL SUSPENSION PARTS FOR A SMOOTHER RIDE SUPPOSEDLY. I HAVE ALL OF MY DOCUMENTATION FROM THE DEALERSHIP SHOULD YOU REQUIRE IT.

I NOTICE WIND NOISE IS VERY LOUD IN THIS CAR. IT SOUNDS AS IF A WINDOW IS SLIGHTLY OPENED, ALTHOUGH ALL THE WINDOWS ARE CLOSED. I CAN HEAR IT EVEN IF I'M GOING 30 TO 40 MPH. WHEN CARS PASS GOING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, YOU CAN HEAR EACH ONE AS THEY PASS MORE THAN YOU NORMALLY WOULD. IT MAKES FOR A VERY NOISY RIDE IN TOWN SO I CAN IMAGE HOW IT WILL BE ONCE I DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY. I HAVE READ 2 OTHER CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
GROSSLY DEFECTIVE HEADLIGHTS, LOW BEAMS FAIL TO ADEQUATELY ILLUMINATE THE ROADWAY IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. LOW BEAM CUTOFF TOO LOW, UNABLE TO DISCERN LARGE BRIGHT OBJECT ON ROADWAY OR EDGE AT 100 FOOT DISTANCE. PHOTO DOCUMENTATION ATTACHED. HONDA HAS NOT PROVIDED AN OWNERS MANUAL OR INFORMATION FOR ADJUSTMENT DESPITE REPEATED REQUESTS. HONDA CLAIMS I CAN ORDER THE MANUAL ON THE WEB BUT IT IS NOT POSSIBLE, THE WEBSITE ONLY ALLOWS 2015 AND EARLIER, SCREEN SHOT ATTACHED. MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER, SOUTHEAST HONDA SERVICE ADVISOR CLAIMED THEY CANNOT BE ADJUSTED, I BELIEVE THAT THIS INFORMATION IS NOT TRUE.

THE SUNROOF ON MY 2016 HONDA ACCORD SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT APROX 70MPH. IT SOUNDED LIKE A LOUND POP. WE WERE LEFT WITH A GIANT HOLE IN THE CENTER OF THE SUNROOF. THE BROKEN PARTS OF THE GLASS ARE ANGLED UPWARD AS IF IT SHATTERED FROM THE INSIDE UP. WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW ON 1/4/16 AND THIS OCCURRED ON 1/15/16. WE WERE DRIVING ON A DESOLATE STRETCH OF DESERT HIGHWAY THAT IS SURROUNDED BY ABSOLUTELY NOTHING.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
THE 'DRIVER'S SIDE EXPANDED VIEW' MIRROR IS CONFUSING TO LOOK AT AND NOT SAFE. A SOLUTION WOULD BE TO REPLACE THIS MIRROR WITH A REGULAR MIRROR THE DRIVER CAN ADJUST. THE CAMERA VIEW FOR THE PASSENGER MIRROR SHOULD HAVE AN OPTION TO TURN IT OFF. NIGHT DRIVING IS DIFFICULT BECAUSE OF THE VEHICLE LIGHTS. OTHERWISE THIS IS A GREAT CAR!
