2010 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

THE ANGLE OF THE HEADREST CAUSES MY HEAD TO LOOK DOWN. I CANT SIT STRAIGHT!!!!!!!! IT CAUSES NECK AND BACK PAIN ON LONGER TRIPS!!!!!!

SINCE OIL CHANGE IN APRIL 2016, NEEDED TO ADD 3 1/3 QTS OF OIL IN LESS THAN 4K MILES. NO OIL IS DRIPPING FROM CAR; NO INDICATOR LIGHT SHOWING OIL LOW. TOOK TO GET DIAGNOSIS OF PROBLEM AND NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND. CURRENTLY GETTING AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WITH HONDA SO THAT WE CAN GET EXTENDED WARRANTY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ACCORD CROSSTOUR. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED SEVERELY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRONT CV AXLES FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,745.

BURNING OIL EXCESSIVELY SINCE I HAVE HAD THE CAR. I NEVER GOT A RECALL NOTICE. HAVING TO ADD A QT OR BETTER A WEEK. JUNE 12 IT STALLED OUT ALL THE WAY HOME FROM WORK. THAT WAS A SUNDAY. JUST CHECKED THE OIL ON THURSDAY. OIL WAS OKAY IN THURSDAY. ON SUNDAY NO OIL TO SHOW ON DIPSTICK. BURNT AT LEAST 3 QTS IN LESS THAN 200 MILES! DRAINED WHAT LITTLE OIL WAS LEFT. CHANGED FILTER AND PUT NEW OIL IN. STILL WOULD NOT RUN. CHANGED SPARK PLUGS AND IT RAN BETTER BUT STILL HAS A SLIGHT MIS. DTC P0303. THE DEALERSHIP DELETED THE CODE AND SAID IT WASN'T A CODE IN THERE. WILL NOT DO ANYTHING. I HAD IT READ BEFORE I TOOK IT THERE AND HAVE A PICTURE OF IT. THE PAINT HAS BEEN CHIPPING OFF FOR OVER A YEAR, NOT WHERE ROCKS HIT. PLACES THAT ARE CURVED OR ROUNDED. EDGES OF THE ROOF OR FENDER. IT'S ONLY 6 YEARS OLD. HONDA DOESN'T STAND BY EITHER OF THESE ISSUES. NEVER AGAIN WILL I OWN A HONDA. THE CAR IS NOT LEAKING OIL AND IT IS NOT SMOKING. THE OIL IS GOING SOME PLACE. AND THAT IS CAUSING SERIOUS DAMAGE TO MY CAR. NOT TO MENTION THE DAMAGE THAT'S ALREADY BEEN CAUSED. A SOFTWARE UPDATE DOESN'T FIX THE DAMAGE THAT'S BEEN CAUSED ALREADY.

I BOUGHT A HONDA ON QUITE A FEW REFERRALS BECAUSE THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO BE SOLID CARS THAT LAST. I HAD ACTUALLY BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE ENGINE, IN ONE FORM OR ANOTHER, A COUPLE YEARS AFTER I BOUGHT IT. I WOULD TAKE IT IN AND IT WOULD BE FIXED (?). UNTIL A FEW MONTHS AGO WHEN THE ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHTS WOULD GO ON FOR A FEW DAYS THEN OFF, THEN BACK ON, THEN OF AGAIN. THE FINAL TIME THEY WENT ON THEY WERE BLINKING AND MY CAR WAS ACTING VERY SLUGGISH, IT WAS NOT GETTING A LOT OF POWER SO I TOOK IT IN TO A HONDA DEALER FOR A DIAGNOSTIC. AFTER PICKING MY SELF UP OFF OF THE FLOOR FROM THE ESTIMATE THAT THEY GAVE ME, I TOOK THEIR PRINT OUT TO ANOTHER REPAIR CENTER, THAT RHYMES WITH, HIRESTONE, BECAUSE THEY HAD TAKEN CARE OF A FEW THINGS IN THE PAST AND HAD GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE AND COMPARABLE PRICING. ONE WEEK LATER, MY ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND I FLIPPED OUT! I TOOK IT BACK TO 'HIRESTONE" AND THEY TOOK IT IN AND A FEW HOURS LATER, HERE I AM READING ABOUT THE LAWSUIT WITH HONDA OVER THE EXCESSIVE OIL USAGE DEAL. NOW I WILL BE SUPER INCONVENIENCED TO FIND A WAY TO TAKE MY CAR IN TO A DEALER FOR A COUPLE HOURS FOR MY 3RD OIL CHANGE IN ABOUT 3-4 WEEKS SO THEY CAN MONITOR THE USAGE AND DETERMINE IF I QUALIFY TO HAVE THE PISTON RINGS REPLACED, A 1-2 DAY JOB. ALSO COME TO FIND OUT THAT IF IT IS THE LAWSUIT ISSUE, AMERICAN HONDA DOES NOT OFFER A RENTAL CAR FOR ME WHILE THEY ARE FIXING "THEIR" FAULTY ISSUE. I DIDN'T ASK FOR THIS HEADACHE, THEY KNEW ABOUT IT A FEW YEARS AGO. THEY SHOULD PAY FOR EVERYTHING!! URGGGGGGG!!!!

THE VEHICLE VIBRATES, AND SHAKES UPON ACCELERATION. HONDA IS AWARE OF THE DRIVE AXLE ISSUES WITH THIS AUTO. IN FACT THEY TELL ME THE CAR NEEDS DRIVE AXLES, BUT CAN'T REPAIR AS THE DRIVE AXLES ARE ON INDEFINITE BACKORDER, AND IF THEY COULD GET THE AXLES THE REPAIR WOULD BE IN EXCESS OF $1000.00.

THE PAINT FALLS OFF AND TURNS YELLOW. THE CAR IS GARAGE KEPT AND I ONLY USE HIGH QUALITY CAR WASH MATERIALS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL FOR A SIX YEAR OLD GARAGE KEPT CAR TO CHANGE COLORS AND THE PAINT FALL OFF. NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR THEY SAID.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A REAR END COLLISION. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FRAME HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ONE YEAR LATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG COMPUTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AGAIN, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10,000.

THREE MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT THE HONDA, THE TPMS LIGHT CAME ON, AND WHEN I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT. AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE AND I SHOULD JUST "DRIVE AROUND THE BLOCK" UNTIL IT GOES OUT. IT DID GO OUT, BUT SEVEN MONTHS LATER THE TPMS LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I AGAIN CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID TO BRING IT IN, AND IT WOULD BE FIXED AT NO CHARGE. HOWEVER, WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN, I WAS TOLD I'D HAVE TO PAY $240 BECAUSE THE SENSOR WAS BAD. HAVING RESEARCHED THE ISSUE, I SEE THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SENSOR PROBLEM, THAT HONDA KNOWS ABOUT IT, THAT THEY LIED TO ME ABOUT "DRIVING AROUND THE BLOCK." THEN THEY LIED AGAIN, TELLING ME THEY WOULD FIX IT AT NO CHARGE.

6/9/15, AND 5/20/16--HONDA REPLACED RT FRONT AXLE IST TIME 5/20/16 TAKING IT IN FOR EXACT SAME REASON??!! NO ACCIDENTS OR TRAUMA, SHOOK BAD. NOTICED ON LINE OTHERS WITH A CROSSTOUR HAS HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM. SHAKING ON FREEWAYS WHEN SLOWDOWN ESPECIALLY. IF I NEED REPLACEMENT-IT SHOULD BE COVERED BUT WHAT IS CAUSING THIS WITHIN A YEAR???? SCARY. THIS MUST BE LOOKED INTO AS A RECALL-I HAVE HAD MANY CARS NEVER EVER AN AXEL PROBLEM EVER ON EVEN OLDER CARS.
