TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN, I'VE BEEN REVIEWING SEVERAL WEBSITE'S WHERE CAR OWNERS OF 2014 HONDA ACCORD SEDAN'S HAS REPORTED WHERE THE IGNITION WILL NOT TURN OVER WHEN YOU INSERT THEIR KEY. I HAVE TO TURN MY KEY AND TAKE IT OUT AT LEAST 5 TIMES IN OVER FOR THE IGNITION TO TURN OVER. THIS IS A MAJOR CONCERN FOR MY ESPECIALLY IF I'M STRANDED. I WAS IN MY PARKING GARAGE ON 11/19/18 AT 5:30PM WHERE MY CAR WILL NOT START. I HAD TO TAKE MY KEY OUT AND INSERT IT IN THE IGNITION FOR ABOUT 5 TIMES BEFORE IT TURNOVER. MY CAR HAS HAD ITS ROUTINELY CHECK UPS AND I'M NOT SURE AS TO WHY THIS IS HAPPENING ALL OR SUDDENLY. I'M NOTICING THAT THIS HAS BEEN HAPPEN FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS. WHEN I TAKEN MY CAR TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP- DUVAL HONDA ON CASSET AVE AND THEY STATED THAT NO ONE HAS REPORTED THIS ISSUE. HOWEVER I HAVE REVIEW PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS OF THE SIMILAR ISSUE THAT I'M HAVING.

HI SANDY HOW ARE YOU DOING? THE STRANGEST THING HAPPENED TO ME YESTERDAY. I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 HONDA ACCORD CAME TO A RED LIGHT. WHEN I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE THE ENGINE ACCELERATED AND IT WAS HARD TO STOP THE CAR, SO I PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND THE ENGINE RACED, I THEN TURNED THE CAR OFF. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT WAS FINE. THE DEALER TESTED IT OVER NIGHT FOR 160 MILES AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE. CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY, SO WAS CHARGED FOR SERVICE. THEY DID A SOFTWARE UPDATE ON PCM (MAIN COMPUTER) AND EPS SYSTEM (STEERING WHEEL)

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE HONDA ACCORD 2014 IS CONSUMING TONS OF ENGINE OIL. HAVING ISSUES WITH "ENGINE OIL BURNING" WHERE EVIDENCE OF EVAPORATED ENGINE OIL IS ON THE ENGINE AND IS GETTING CONSUMED RAPIDLY. I HAVE TO REFILL A QUART FOR EVERY 1500 MILES. THIS MEANS 3 QUARTS ADDED BEFORE THE NEXT OIL CHANGE. THIS WAS DISCOVERED AROUND NOV 2017 WHEN THE OIL INDICATOR LIGHT WENT OFF (~44,000 MILES). AFTER GASKET REPLACEMENTS AND TWO OIL CHANGES, I AM STILL HAVING ISSUES AND AM AT 50,400 MILES. MY MAINTENANCE HAS ALWAYS BEEN ON TIME WITH REGULAR OIL CHANGES AT AROUND 4500-5000 MILES.

WHEN I TRY TO START MY CAR, MOST OF THE TIME IT WON'T START. IT JUST CLICKS. I HAVE TO TRY MULTIPLE TIMES AND EVENTUALLY IT WILL START. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT HONDA SHOULD FIX. AND IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE, IF IT IS DARK OUT AND YOUR CAR WON'T START, THEN YOU ARE A TARGET FOR A CRIMINAL. I AM LOSING MY FAITH IN THE RELIABILITY OF HONDA'S.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON 24 AUGUST 2018, SEVERAL LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE DASH, TO INCLUDE THE THE FCW, LDW, BRAKES AND POWER STEERING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HONDA AND WAS TOLD THAT MY VSA MODULATOR MAY NEED TO BE REPLACED. THEY RESET IT AND TOLD ME THAT IF THE LIGHTS COME BACK ON, I WOULD DEFINITELY NEED TO GET IT REPLACED. NEEDLESS TO SAY, THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON 2 HOURS LATER. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD TO ORDER THE PART, WHICH WAS $1400 +TAX AND LABOR. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED.

WHEN YOU PRESS THE START BUTTON, IT JUST CLICKS. AFTER A FEW TRIES, IT WOULD START. THE PROBLEM IS A FAULTY STARTER (NOT THE BUTTON, KEY, OR BATTERY). AFTER ONLY 60K MILES? HONDA CHARGED $900 TO REPLACE IT. CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND THEY REFUSED TO REIMBURSE ME. I AM DISAPPOINTED THAT HONDA DOES NOT STAND BY ITS PRODUCTS ANY MORE. THEY USED TO BE DEPENDABLE CARS.

ENGINE
CAN IS 4 YEARS OLD AND HAS 118K MILES ON IT. HAD TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED, THERE WERE NO LIGHTS OR ERRORS ON THE COMPUTER WHEN IT WAS HOOKED UP BUT TOLD I NEEDED A NEW TRANSMISSION. CAR STOPPED GETTING IN GEAR. HAD A SALVAGED ONE PUT IN AND IN LESS THAN 2 MONTHS IT WAS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. ON 2 OCCASIONS OVER THE LAST WEEK, I'VE HAD TO HIT THE BRAKES HARD AND IT TOOK ABOUT 5 SECOND FOR THE CAR TO START GOING AGAIN WHEN I ACCELERATED. IT REVED DURING THAT TIME BUT THE GEAR DID NOT CATCH. IT IS ALSO SHIFTING VERY ROUGH FROM THROUGH THE GEARS AND WHEN BRAKING UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, IT SHIFTS ROUGH. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATE AND THEY'VE BASICALLY TOLD ME OH WELL.
