2011 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

WHILE TRAVELING ON THE HIGHWAY, I NOTICED EXCESSIVE VIBRATION ON BRAKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE HONDA DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE FRONT ROTORS WERE WARPED. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME I HAD THIS OCCURRED IN THIS CAR. AT APPROXIMATELY 18,000 MILES I HAD THE SAME SITUATION. HONDA RESURFACED THE ROTORS AND THIS PROBLEM DISAPPEARED. HONDA IS REFUSING TO CHANGE THE ROTORS. THIS IS A SAFETY AND MANUFACTURING DEFECT THAT HONDA SHOULD RECALL. PLEASE ATTEND TO THIS MATTER URGENTLY. *TR

THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED THAT THE POWER STEERING RACK WAS LEAKING THE FLUID AND WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. I KNOW THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS SAME THING ON EARLIER MODEL HONDA ACCORDS. I WONDER IF IT'S STILL AN ISSUE AS MY CAR IS JUST OVER 3 YEARS OLD AND ONLY 46,000 MILES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 37 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A HEAD ON COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

THIS IS NOT A SAFETY COMPLAINT BUT MORE OF A DEFECT. I HAVE A 2011 HONDA ACCORD AND IT HAD LESS THAN 50,000 MILES WHEN I NOTICED THE ISSUE. I HAVE LEATHER INTERIOR AND THE ARM REST ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR BUBBLES IN EXTREME HEAT. ONCE IT COOLS OFF, IT LAYS BACK DOWN SOME, BUT NEVER FLAT AS IT SHOULD BE. IT IS CONCERNING THAT THIS IS HAPPENING ON A CAR THAT IS NOT THAT OLD. UPON GOOGLING THIS ISSUE, I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY HONDA OWNERS WHO HAVE COMPLAINED OF THE SAME THING. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY AND IT IS VERY CONCERNING ESPECIALLY WHEN THE DEALER (PRIOROITY HONDA IN CHESAPEAKE, VA) SAYS THAT ITS THE GLUE AND IT WILL BE $150.00 TO REPAIR. REALLY....I WOULD HAVE BEEN BEST OFF GETTING CLOTH INTERIOR. THIS IS THE 3RD HONDA I HAVE OWNED, BUT AFRAID IT MAY BE MY LAST. *JS

DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE THERE WAS A LOUD EXPLOSION. I LOOKED IN MY REAR VIEW MIRROR AND SAW THE GLASS FROM THE SUNROOF FLYING OFF INTO THE ROAD. THE TRUCK BEHIND ME HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS THE DEBRIS. WE WERE IN AN OPEN AREA - NO BRIDGES OR OVERPASSES. WE STOPPED, LOOKED AT THE DAMAGE, TURNED AROUND AT THE NEXT EXIT AND CAME BACK TO LOOK AT THE ROAD. THERE WAS NO DEBRIS, JUST PIECES OF GLASS IN THE ROAD. THERE WERE NO OTHER CHIPS OR NICKS ON THE CAR BODY. I HAD HAND WASHED THE CAR THE DAY BEFORE AND THERE WERE NO CHIPS IN THE SUNROOF. HONDA DEALER REFUSED TO COVER UNDER WARRANTY, ALTHOUGH THEY HAD SEEN THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO AN ODYSSEY. THEY COULD NOT EXPLAIN TO ME HOW THIS COULD HAPPEN. ABOUT 2/3 THIRDS OF THE SUNROOF BROKE OFF. LUCKILY WE HAD THE COVER DOOR CLOSED OR WE COULD HAVE BEEN HIT WITH BROKEN GLASS. APPARENTLY THEY ARE USING CHEAP LIGHTER WEIGHT UNLAMINATED GLASS WHICH DOES NOT HOLD UP. THE WEATHER WAS IN THE 80'S AND CLOUDY. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN THE GARAGE OVERNIGHT. THIS IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD . *TR

CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEALERSHIPS IN THE PHOENIX, ARIZONA AREA HOT-WIRING MODIFICATIONS OF NEW VEHICLE IGNITION SYSTEM AND SECURITY SYSTEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE HOT-WIRING MODIFICATIONS WERE FOR THE BENEFIT AND CONVENIENCE OF CAR DEALERS FOR PHYSICALLY MANAGING THEIR INVENTORY. *JB

THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER'S SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE. THESE SEAT ARE GOING TO CAUSE BACK PROBLEMS. HONDA SHOULD FIX THESE IMMEDIATELY. *TR

LEFT FRONT BREAK FILLS LIKE IT'S NOT BREAKING PROPERLY,MAKES A NOISE WHEN BREAKING AT ALL TIMES SLOW OR FAST .I HAVE CALL HONDA FOR THIS ISSUE AND SEE IF MORE PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS AND THEY SAID NO ONE ELSE HAD.I HOPE NO ONE ELSE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM BUT IF THEY DO SO HONDA CAN DO A RECALL TO FIXED THE PROBLEM

BRAKE ROTORS ARE WARPED AND CAUSE YOU TO LOSE CONTROL IN CURVES AND WET OR LOW TRACTION CONDITIONS. *TR

THE NAVIGATION UNIT SHUT OFF AND WOULD TURN BACK ON, THEN AN ERROR REPORT CAME ON. *TR
