2015 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

MY CAR HAS BEEN BURNING OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. THERE ARE NO LEAKS AND I GET THE OIL CHANGED EVERY THREE MONTHS REGARDLESS OF MILAGE. TODAY I CHECKED MY OIL AND IT WAS EMPTY. THERE WAS NO INDICATION LIGHT AND THE MORE I SEARCH ONLINE FOR SOLUTIONS, IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD FIX THE DEFECT.

OUR 2015 HONDA ACCORD HAS DEVELOPED A STARTING PROBLEM THE VEHICLE HAS A PUSH BUTTON START AND MORE SO THAN NOT IT TAKES REPEATED PUSHES OF THE START BUTTON FOR THE CAR TO CRANK OVER. THIS CONDITION STARTED ROUGHLY ONE MONTH AGO AND IS VERY CONCERNING TO ME SINCE IT IS MY WIFE'S CAR AND I DON'T WANT HER TO BE STRANDED BECAUSE THE CAR DOESN'T START. WHEN YOU PRESS THE BRAKE AND THE START BUTTON ALL YOU HEAR IS A LOUD CLICK COMING FROM THE STARTER BUT IT DOESN'T CRANK OVER. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE PROBLEM AND FOUND NUMEROUS SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH 2013 - 2015 HONDA ACCORDS. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND HONDA IS BEING VERY IRRESPONSIBLE FOR NOT STEPPING UP TO THE PLATE AND ADMITTING IT IS A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM. MOST IF NOT ALL OF THE OTHER COMPLAINTS I'VE READ SAY IT IS A STARTER ISSUE AND EVEN THE HONDA DEALERSHIPS ARE SAYING IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM!!!

AT ONLY 38,XXX MILES THIS VEHICLE HAS INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUES. INTERNET RESEARCH AND MECHANIC DIAGNOSIS INDICATES THAT THE STARTER NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AT THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP, BUT YET THEY COULD NOT GIVE ME A CONCRETE ANSWER AS TO IF REPLACING THE STARTER WILL FIX THE PROBLEM LONG TERM. WITH A QUOTED REPLACEMENT COST OF $1,000 I AM LEERY TO HAVE THE STARTER REPLACED IF IT DOES NOT ACTUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE COLD BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUES. A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 38,XXX MILES AND BARELY OUT OF WARRANTY SHOULD NOT BE HAVING THESE ISSUE. I AM OKAY WITH FIXING A FAULTY PART, BUT I AM NOT OKAY WITH A REOCCURRING ISSUES NOT HAVING AN EXACT SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. ARE THE STARTERS IN THESE VEHICLES TRULY BAD OR IS IT SOMETHING ELSE WITHIN THE CAR THAT IS CAUSING THE STARTER TO BLOW? A RECALL OR RESEARCH OUTSIDE OF HONDA (BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY THEY ARE IGNORING THE ISSUES) NEEDS TO BE ROLLED OUT TO GET TO THE BOTTOM OF, AND FIX, THESE STARTING PROBLEMS. STARTERS SHOULD NOT FAIL PRIOR TO 50,000 MILES. IF THEY ARE CONSTANTLY FAILING AT LOW MILEAGE, THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL DONE WITH THE OPTION OF REPLACING THE ORIGINAL STARTERS WITH NON-FAULTY PARTS. IF THE STARTERS ARE SOLID PARTS AS-IS, RESEARCH NEEDS TO BE DONE TO DETERMINE WHY THE STARTERS ARE FAILING. AT $1,000 PER REPAIR, HONDA IS MAKING TOO MUCH MONEY FIXING KNOWN SAFETY ISSUES WITH THEIR VEHICLES.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 65MPH I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THEN GLASS BREAKING. WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED, THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS SHATTERED. LUCKILY THE SUNROOF COVER WAS CLOSED BECAUSE MY SON WAS SITTING IN THE BACKSEAT. THE WEATHER TODAY WAS ABOUT 50 DEGREES AND RAINY. THE CAR WAS PARKED INSIDE OUR GARAGE BEFOREHAND SINCE THE NIGHT BEFORE.

MY STARTER CLICKS ONCE WHEN I TRY TO TURN THE CAR ON, BUT THE CAR WON'T TURN ON. IT'S AN INTERMITTENT THING, BUT HAS STARTED HAPPENING MORE AND MORE OFTEN. I'VE BEEN STRANDED NOW TWO TIMES BECAUSE OF IT.

WHEN PUTTING IN REVERSE OR DRIVE, ENGINE STUTTERS AND ELECTRICAL SYSTEM CUTS OUT AND ENTERTAINMENT CONSOLE REBOOTS. SOMETIMES THE CAR STALLS ALL TOGETHER. REPLACED THE BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR, AND PROBLEM STARTS AGAIN AFTER A FEW WEEKS.

I WAS PULLING SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PARKING LOT WHEN SUDDENLY CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL AND BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION..CAR WAS GOING EXTREMELY FAST..I HIT A POST AND A BUILDING..AIRBAG DEPLOYED..CAR WAS TOTALED.. AIRBAG SAVED ME. CAR ONLY HAD LITTLE OVER 30,500 MILES..IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. MY FAMILY WHO DROVE THE CAR CAR SAID THAT AT TIMES WHEN RELEASING BRAKE THE CAR WOULD LURCH FAST FORWARD OR BACK WHEN IN REVERSE. WHEN THE CAR CAME TO A STOP AFTER HITTING BUILDING THE 1ST THING I DID WAS LOOK WHERE MY FOOT WAS..IT WAS ON THE BRAKE. I KNEW IT WOULD BE CONSIDERED "DRIVER ERROR" BECAUSE I AM 80 YRS. OLD. BUT IT WAS THE CAR. ACTUALLY THIS HAPPENED BEFORE A FEW MONTHS AGO BUT I WAS ABLE TO STOP CAR . SAME SITUATION..PULLING SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A MCDONALD'S PARKING LOT. CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, JUMPED CURB WENT DOWN A HILL AND ENDED UP ON NEW ROAD UNDER CONSTRUCTION..THAT LANE HAD NOT OPENED YET. I MANAGED TO STOP AT BOTTOM OF HILL. CONSUMER HAS INJURIES FROM THE AIRBAGS. I HAVE A CLEAN DRIVING RECORD..NO ACCIDENTS. I AM A RETIRED RN..VERY CLEAR MINDED. NO SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS. *LN*JB

MY SIRIUS/XM RADIO RECEPTION IS INTERMITTENT. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. INTERNET SEARCHES SUGGEST THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM WITH HONDA VEHICLES. HAS THIS PROBLEM BEEN REPORTED TO NHTSA AND IS NHTSA CONSIDERING A RECALL?
