2017 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

RECENTLY TOOK MY CAR IN FOR CAR DOC MAINTENANCE FOR AND AN OIL CHANGE. PAPERWORK STATES THE BATTERY IS GOOD. UPON LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP AFTER MECHANIC BROUGHT MY VEHICLE OUT TO ME I JUMPED TRIED TO START THE VEHICLE AND IT WOULDN'T START SO I INFORMED THE HONDA MECHANIC AND THEY GAVE ME A JUMP WITH THE JUMPER BOX. IT'S BEEN 1 MONTH SINCE THEN AND MY CAR WON'T START AT THE ODDEST TIMES EVEN AFTER I'VE BEEN DRIVING FOR A WHILE. CAR WON'T START OR TURN OVER AND THE LIGHTS JUST FLICKER ON AND OFF. I'M CURRENTLY WAITING ON A TOW TRUCK TO GET A JUMP MY CAR IS PARKED IN THE GARAGE AND IT WON'T START. VERY FRUSTRATED WITH HONDA I HAD THE CAR LESS THAN 2 YEARS AND I HAVE LESS THAN 50K MILES

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.

THERE IS A LOUD NOISE THAT COMES FROM THE TIRES AS YOU ARE DRIVING. HONDA STATED THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND IT IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE BEADING OF THE TIRE. THEY REFUSE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE, WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE, ESPECIALLY IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO THE TIRE WHILE DRIVING FREEWAY SPEEDS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE EVEN WITH THE BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED TO THE FLOORBOARD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, INCLUDING THE BRAKE INDICATOR. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO SHUT OFF, RESTART, AND MOVE THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO HERB CHAMBERS HONDA OF WESTBOROUGH (774-760-0500, LOCATED AT 350 TURNPIKE ROAD, RTE 9, WESTBOROUGH, MA 01581) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRAKE SIMULATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE PART WAS ON BACKORDER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 32,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

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.

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.

CAR SUDDENLY WONT START. BREAK PETAL IS STUCK, DASH LIGHTS CLICK AND WONT START. ACTS LIKE ITS THE BATTERY BUT DOESN'T ALLOW JUMP. CAR HAS LESS THAT 46,000 MILES AND IS 2 YRS OLD. CURRENT RECALL OUT FOR FUEL ISSUES, BUT THE DEALER IS SURE THATS NOT THE CAUSE. CONTACT AT THE DEALER WAS NOT HELPFUL AT ALL AND KINDA RUDE. RUSHED ME OFF THE PHONE WHEN I WAS ASKING QUESTIONS. VERY UPSET

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. WHILE IN TRAFFIC, THE VEHICLE WOULD JERK AND THEN DRIVE NORMALLY WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE FAILURE RECURRED EVERY TWO WEEKS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BREAKAWAY HONDA (LOCATED AT 330 WOODRUFF RD, GREENVILLE, SC 29607, (877) 701-4395) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT A FAILURE CODE COULD NOT BE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09486822. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

CAR WON'T TURN OVER AT RANDOM TIMES. CLEANED TERMINALS AND TESTED BATTERY AND ALTERNATOR WHICH ARE GOOD.
