2017 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

2017 Honda Accord first noticed a tachometer that at town/hwy speeds would fluctuate a few rpm (surge and reduce) going down the road. Took to Honda dealer and they stated flushing the transmission fluid and to do so every 30K and have continued to do so, the surge and reduce subsided but, we also notice a loud cold start tic in the engine. After starting up cold, and engaging in drive the vehicle jerks and feels to stall suddenly causing forward motion of driver to the extent that the seat belt locks until the engine is normal temperature. This is a major problem in traffic with other vehicles around for your car to suddenly jerk back and may even cause rear end accidents from other vehicles behind putting driver and surrounding vehicles/drivers at risk for an accident. This tic and jerking in this 2017 Honda Accord V6 EX-L started at around 120K miles and has continued to tic and jerk until the engine is a normal temperature Tac surge/reduce has not been as prevalent with transmission fluid flushing. When vehicle is up to full temp the tic and jerking subside until normal temp the jerking/stalling continues at any rate of speed. There have been no warning lamps or messages since the onset of this problem. This 2017 Accord currently has 150K

The car makes loud static noise that is distracting. The noise is sudden and does not go away by lowering the volume. This has bee a common safety hazard reported by many Honda Accord 9th generation owners. American Honda refuses to recall vehicles to solve this problem. Apparently, it is common knowledge that the audio/navigation head unit is the reson for this loud random static noise.

VTA unit driver seat needs to be fixed. Is a common problem in this car. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving on the highway with my family on Tuesday, [XXX] the Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT) failed and created a dangerous and hazardous situation for my family and others on the road. The D3 warning light and check engine light appeared and simultaneously the vehicle shifted to a lower gear. The vehicle was only operable at a lower speed and gear. We called the nearest Honda dealership for guidance, and they advised us to proceed slowly to the dealership. We drove the very stressful distance with our hazard lights on the entire way while we drove at a lower rate of speed on the highway. This slow rate of speed also posed a hazard as well. The vehicle was serviced and inspected by the Manchester Honda in Manchester, CT, and they determined that a transmission replacement was necessary due to an internal failure of Transmission ASSY causing drivability concern. The vehicle had only 69,382 miles and was properly maintained. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Speakers are making loud static noise whenever the radio is turned on or off. After observation, the car does it quite often in heat, especially in Florida weather. It is now doing it in cooler temperatures. Now that there is permanent damage. Sometimes the loudness is very overwhelming. You’re not able to even hear yourself talk in the car. You’re not able to hear if someone is pressing their horn at you because of how loud the noises are. Honda hasn’t offered any solutions to the problem. I have called several times to report this issue. i’ve seen quite a number of people who are having the same issue as I am. There’s a forum on Reddit. There’s people on YouTube.This is an ongoing issue and it needs to be replaced or repaired. I was told by Honda that is an issue with the wiring of the car when the car was manufactured.

The speakers will blast static noise while driving even when the radio is turned off. The engine will need to be powered off to stop the noise. After powering on and driving again the static noise returns within 5 minutes. This is very distracting. This has been happening intermittently for over a month. The audio fuse can be removed to stop the noise from occurring. Unfortunately, this fuse also disables the backup camera and side camera, not an ideal fix. I have MP4 format video available that can be shared via Gmail Google drive.
