DROVE CAR TO WORK FROM MASSACHUSETTS TO NEW HAMPSHIRE IN THE MORNING WITH THE CAR NOT TURNING OVER RIGHT AWAY AND HAVING TO CATCH ON THE SECOND TRY. AFTER WORK WITH ONLY 33196 MILES, CAR DID NOT START YET ELECTRONICS CAME ON HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO ACROSS STATES TO HOME DEALERSHIP AND FIND OUT ITS THE STARTER THAT WAS WRONG. AFTER LOOKING IT UP, THIS APPEARED TO BE A PROBLEM WHICH I BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIPS ATTENTION BUT ALL THEY PROVIDE WAS 2 GOODWILL DISCOUNTS THAT WAS UNDER 100 DOLLARS TO STILL CHARGE 719 FOR THE REPLACING OF STARTER FOR A CAR THAT IS 5 YEARS OLD AND ONLY 33,196 MILE ON IT.

I HAVE A 2013 HONDA ACCORD 2013 WITH 75,000 MILES ON IT. FOR THE PAST FEW MOTH I'VE BEEN HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE STARTER. THE CAR WILL TURN ON, BUT AFTER A FEW TRIES. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY CONFIRMED THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE STARTER. I DID NOT REPLACED IT BECAUSE I DID EXTENSIVE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT THERE ARE TOO MANY CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT AND IT'S NOT FAIR FOR SOME THAT ONLY HAVE A FEW THOUSAND MILES ON THEIR CARS FOR THEM TO BE PAYING OVER $800 FOR CAR DEFECT THAT HONDA KNOWS THAT MANY OF THEIR VEHICLES SHOULD ALREADY HAVE A RECALL.

VSM BRAKES MODULATOR FAILED AS SOON AS I BOUGHT IT AND PAID FIX 1600. I'VE FOUND THE MODULATOR WIRE MADE BY SOYBEANS AND RABIT OR MOUSE BITED IT AND BROKE IT. THE CAR COMPANY MUST PROMISS FOR SAFE TO THE DRIVER AND IT HAPPENS BY MAKER'S FAILURE THAT MADE BY SOYBEANS TO INVOLVE THE ANIMAL CHEWED TO THREATEN SAFETY.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN I START MY VEHICLE, THE ENGINE TURNS ON, BUT ONLY STAYS ON FOR A SECOND OR TWO BEFORE LOOSING POWER. THE BATTERY SEEMS TO BE WORKING PERFECTLY FINE AS THE LIGHTS AND INDICATORS ARE PROPERLY LIT. THE STARTER ALSO CRANKS PROPERLY. THE ENGINE HOWEVER TURNS ON BUT DOESN'T STAY O. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME MULTIPLE TIMES AND I HAVE CHANGED MY CAR BATTERY 3 TIMES NOW AS THE DEALERSHIP ISN'T UNABLE TO IDENTIFY WHAT THE ISSUE IS AND MY BATTERY KEEPS GETTING DRAINED. THE CAR IS PARTICULARLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO THIS ISSUE IN THE MORNINGS IN COLDER TEMPERATURES (50 DEGREES OR SO AS I LIVE IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA) AFTER NOT BEING USED OVERNIGHT

STEERING
MY DAUGHTER AND I PURCHASED A 2013 HONDA ACCORD AT TAMERON HONDA, DAPHNE, AL ON FEBRUARY 16, 2018. WE DROVE IT FOR ABOUT TWO WEEKS AND THEN THE POWER STEERING STARTED GETTING HARD TO STEER. SO WE FOLLOWED THE OWNERS MANUAL BY LETTING THE CAR'S EPS TO COOL DOWN. WE THEN WERE ABLE TO DRIVE IT FOR AWHILE, THEN ON MARCH 22, 2018 MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND THE POWER STEERING EPS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE STEERING WAS VERY HARD MAKING IT ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE SAFELY. I CALL THE TAMRON SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD THE WOULD FIX IT BUT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT.
