THERE IS A RUBBING NOISE THAT COMES FROM THE 19' WHEEL DURING A DRIVE AT LOW SPEEDS . IT DEVELOPED AT ABOUT 13,000 MILES AND PROGRESSES . HONDA STATED THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE BEADING OF THE TIRE. A LOCAL HONDA DEALER CLAIMS THAT APPLIED A TEMPORARY FIX PER ATS 180602 VERSION 1 WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE RUBBING NOISE INDICATES THAT THERE IS A RELATIVE MOVEMENT OF ASSEMBLED PARTS (RIM AND TIRE) WHICH WILL LEAD TO A FAILURE OF ONE OF THEM. IN CASE OF WHEEL THIS COULD BE AN ACCIDENT.

SERVICE BRAKES
ON OR ABOUT 6/10/19 WHILE DRIVING TO WORK I NOTICED A NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF MY CAR. THE SOUND WAS LIKE SCREECHING NAILS ON A CHALKBOARD WHEN THE CAR IS IN MOTION AT ANY SPEED WITHOUT THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED. THE SOUND WOULD GO AWAY WHEN I DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. AFTER I PICKED UP MY CAR ON 6/15/19 FROM SERVICE, WITH ONLY 18,119 MILES, I WAS INFORMED BY MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER THAT ALL THE BRAKE PADS HAD SEIZED AND ALL BRAKE CALIPER PINS HAD FROZEN. THE CAR HAS ONLY BEEN SUBJECT TO NORMAL DRIVING. THIS IS HONDA CASE # 09629449.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
WHEN I REACHED 42K MILES ON THIS VEHICLE, THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY PANEL WENT BLANK WHILE DRIVING RENDERING MOST OF THE SAFETY FEATURES LOST INCLUDING THE REVERSE CAMERA, TURN CAMERA, BLUETOOTH FUNCTIONS, GAS CONSUMPTION INDICATIONS, RADIO AND CLOCK FUNCTIONS ETC.. WHEN I CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA HEADQUARTERS I WAS TOLD THAT I NEED TO TAKE THE CAR TO A SERVICE FACILITY AND AS I HAVE PASSED 36K MILEAGE I AM RESPONSIBLE FOR COSTS ASSOCIATED WITH THE REPAIR. I TRIED TO CONVEY THEM THAT THE FAULT HAS TO BE AN INHERENT MALFUNCTIONING OR CORRUPTION OF THE HONDA'S ELECTRONIC SYSTEM COMPONENTS RATHER THAN EXTRANEOUS WEAR THAT CAN BE ATTRIBUTED TO MY USE OF THIS VEHICLE. NO, THEY WON'T ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY. I GOT THE 'CENTER AUDIO DISPLAY', REPLACED AT A COST OF $446.37 PLUS $70.61 FOR THE DIAGNOSIS.

ENGINE HEAD KEEPS LEAKING OIL. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES BUT THEY WOULD JUST TIGHTEN THE HEAD BOLTS AND PUT A SEAL AROUND IT THAT WOULD LAST ABOUT 500 MILES BEFORE IT STARTS LEAKING AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM STARTED AT 4K MILES.

THERE IS A LOUD SCRAPPING SOUND COMING FROM THE TIRE BEAD BETWEEN THE RIM AND TIRE. I HAVE CONTINENTAL TIRES WITH 19" SPORT RIMS. I HAD IT BROUGHT TO A HONDA DEALER 3-4 TIMES BEFORE THEY FINALLY TOLD ME HONDA HAS NOT SOLUTIONS TO THE ISSUE. THEY OFFERED GIVE ME A DISCOUNT TO GET ANOTHER SET OF TIRES. THEY WERE VERY SILENT ON TRYING TO FIND A FIX OR COMPENSATE COMPLETELY FOR THE ISSUE. THEY ALSO DIDN'T ADVISE IF THE ISSUE WAS HAZARDOUS OR SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THE NOISE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I PURCHASED THIS CAR AND NOTICED THE DRIVE AND PASSENGER LED LIGHT BARS CONTINUE TO BURN OUT, EVEN AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRES. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY WILL NOT HONOR REPLACEMENTS AFTER WARRANTY. REPLACEMENT COSTS ARE~1700. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH HONDA ON THESE VEHICLES AND SHOULD BE COVERED UNTIL PERMANENT FIX IS FOUND.

SERVICE BRAKES
EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE ON APRIL 21, 2019 WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. TRAFFIC WAS SLOWING DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY DUE TO CONSTRUCTION AND I WENT TO APPLY THE BRAKE, BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL WENT ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR AND SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD. I MANAGED TO GET OFF ON AN EXIT RAMP AND SLOWED THE CAR DOWN BY TURNING THE CAR OFF AND USING THE PARKING BRAKE. I MANAGED TO PULL INTO A NEARBY PARKING LOT AND WAITED FOR A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE ME AND THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP. ON APRIL 22, 2019 THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL SIMULATOR. THIS PART HAD TO BE ORDER WHICH TOOK 7 DAYS FOR THE REPAIR TO OCCUR. I PICKED UP THE CAR ON APRIL 30, 2019 AND DROVE BACK TO WORK USING THE HIGHWAY (DETROIT TO LANSING). UPON EXITING THE RAMP TO WORK, THE BRAKES FAILED AGAIN. SEVERAL WARNING FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD THAT I HAVE ATTACHED TO THIS COMPLAINT: BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM AND ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM. I WAS NOT USING CRUISE CONTROL WHEN I WAS DRIVING BACK TO WORK. THE CAR WAS TOWED AGAIN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THE WITHIN HOURS THAT I PICKED IT UP. THE DEALERSHIP IS NOW CLAIMING THAT THE TANDEM MOTOR ANGLE CYLINDER WILL NEED TO BE REPLACE AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY ANOTHER $100.00 (DEDUCTIBLE) TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

MY 2017 HONDA ACCORD COUPE HAS JUST ABOVE 8000 MILES ON IT AND ALMOST EVERYDAY WILL STALL IF I TRY TO ACCELERATE AND ALSO TRY TO SWITCH LANES FROM TIME TO TIME. THERE HAVE BEEN SO MANY TIMES WHERE THE CAR WILL SLOW DOWN DRASTICALLY ON THE ROAD AND IT IS BECOMING VERY DANGEROUS. I TOOK IT TO THE SERVICE STATION AND SINCE THEY COULDN'T FIND A CODE WHEN SCANNING, THEY TOLD ME NOTHING WAS WRONG AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THE CAR HASN'T STOPPED STALLING AND IT LOOKS LIKE MY MODEL HAS A RECALL ANNOUNCED FOR IT BUT IT'S FOR A V6 ENGINE AND NOT A V4 WHICH IS WHAT I DRIVE. THE PICTURE BELOW SHOWS ALL THE LIGHTS THAT TURN ON FROM MY DASHBOARD WHEN THE CAR STALLS.
