2010 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD EXPERIENCED PREMATURE REAR BRAKE WEAR AND I PAID TO HAVE THE BRAKES REPLACED AT ONLY 22,837 MILES. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AND SETTLEMENT FOR THE 2008 AND 2009 MODEL YEARS (AND ONLY A HANDFUL OF VINS FOR THE 2010 MODEL YEAR WHICH DOES NOT INCLUDE MINE). I THOUGHT THAT HONDA HAD FIXED THE PROBLEM AND THAT IMPROVED PADS WERE BEING INSTALLED BUT APPARENTLY NOT SINCE THE 2010 MODEL YEAR STILL SEEMS TO BE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. *KB

MY CAR IS CURRENTLY IN FOR INSPECTION WITH ~16,000 MILES. I WAS JUST TOLD BY HONDA THAT I NEED NEW REAR BRAKES. IT IS GOING TO COST ME $210 TO HAVE THE REPLACED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR BRAKES FAILED TWICE IN LESS THAN ONE YEAR AND A HALF. THE REAR BRAKE PADS WERE ORIGINALLY REPLACED AT 11,000 MILES AND HAD TO BE REPLACED EVERY SIX MONTHS AFTERWARD. THE FRONT BRAKES HAD YET TO NEED REPLACING. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 21,000.

WENT INTO MY HONDA DEALER FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION AND WAS NOTIFIED THAT MY REAR BRAKES IN MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD WERE SHOT AT 14,805 MILES. NEVER IN MY ENTIRE DRIVING CAREER HAVE I EVER EXPERIENCED THIS AND I AM 65 YEARS OLD. EVIDENTLY THERE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM AND CONSUMERS HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. WAITING FOR A CALL FROM HONDA AND WILL BE CHECKING INTO THIS FURTHER. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST HONDA REGARDING THIS. *TR

ENGINE RPMS GO UP WHEN STOPPED OR BARELY MOVING IF STEERING WHEEL IS MOVED. HAS GOTTEN WORSE AND IT NOW HAS 5200 MILES. NO LUCK WITH DEALERSHIP. SAY IT NORMAL FOR THE RPMS TO GO UP IF YOU MOVE STEERING WHEEL. SUPPOSED TO CALL FACTORY AND CALL ME NO PHONE CALL YET. *TR

REAR BRAKE PADS WORE OUT ON NEW 2010 ACCORD AT 25,000 MILES. I WAS TOLD THAT THE COST TO REPAIR THEM WOULD BE REIMBURSED, HOWEVER, WHEN I SUBMITTED MY CLAIM, I WAS TOLD MY VIN NUMBER DID NOT MATCH UP AND THEY WERE NOT GOING TO REIMBURSE ME. 2008-2009 AND SOME 2010 ACCORDS ARE INCLUDED IN HONDA SETTLEMENT FOR FAULTY REAR BRAKE PADS....I THINK THEY SHOULD HAVE INCLUDED ALL 2010 ACCORDS AS THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. REAR BRAKE PADS SHOULD NOT GO OUT AT 25,000 MILES. PATHETIC HONDA. WE WILL THINK TWICE BEFORE BUYING ANOTHER HONDA. *TR

CAR HAD REAR 2MM AND 7.5MM FRONT. SEND MY LETTER TO GET REFUND FROM HONDA. BUT HONDA CLAIM THE VIN ON MY CAR WAS NOT DEFECTIVE SO THEY DO NOT PAY FOR MY BRAKES. SEND A SECOND LETTER STILL WAITING FOR HONDA TO REPLY. *KB

THE DAY AFTER MY AC STOPPED WORKING I DECIDED TO TAKE IT TO THE NEAREST DEALER WHICH WAS AUTOWEST HONDA OF FREMONT. EVEN THOUGH SUMMER WAS ALMOST OVER IT WAS STILL HOT ENOUGH NOT TO LIVE WITH OUT AC SO I DECIDED TO HAVE MY AC DIAGNOSED. APPARENTLY THE DEALER SAID THAT A SMALL PEBBLE HIT MY CONDENSER WHICH CAUSED MY AC TO STOP WORKING. MY INSURANCE WILL COVER IT BUT MY DEDUCTIBLE IS TOO HIGH, MY HONDA WARRANTY DOES NOT WANT TO COVER IT BECAUSE IT WAS NOT A DEFECT AND OF COURSE THE COST TO FIX THE AC CONDENSER PLUS LABOR WOULD COST ABOUT $900!! I REALLY FIND THIS TYPE OF INCIDENT UN FAIR! IF IT THAT SIMPLE FOR A CONDENSER TO BE DAMAGED BY A PEBBLE WHY WOULD HONDA PUT OUT A VEHICLE LIKE THAT OUT ON THE STREETS! I KNOW THE CONDENSER HAS TO BE EXPOSED BUT I BELIEVE THE MODEL OF THIS VEHICLE EXPOSES THE CONDENSER TOO MUCH AND IF ITS THAT SIMPLE FOR THE CONDENSER TO GET DAMAGED THEN HONDA HAS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. I BOUGHT THE CAR BRAND NEW AND TO HAVE SUCH A NECESSARY REPAIR RUNNING FOR $900 AT 30,000 MILES IS RIDICULOUS. EITHER PUT BETTER CONDENSER ON HONDA VEHICLES OR DON'T PUT VEHICLES OUT THERE WHERE ONE HAS TO WORRY ABOUT HITTING PEBBLES BECAUSE THEY MIGHT COST YOU ANOTHER $900! REALLY UNHAPPY WITH HONDA RIGHT NOW, ESPECIALLY THE FACT THAT I LOVE HONDA'S AND MOST OF MY FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE ONE. HOPEFULLY HONDA CAN FIX THIS, BRAND NEW CAR AND ALREADY UNHAPPY AT 30,000! AND OF COURSE I HAD TO PAY THE$150 FOR DIAGNOSING THE THING BECAUSE IT WAS NOT COVERED BY MY HONDA PROTECTION PLAN! HOW ARE WE SUPPOSE TO DRIVE A HONDA ACCORD COUPE WITH PIECE OF MIND IF I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT A PEBBLE HITTING MY CONDENSER AND DAMAGING IT, WHEN STREETS ARE FULL OF THEM! I NEED A CAR THAT WOULD GIVE ME PIECE OF MIND NOT ONE THAT WOULD PUT ME AT RISK FINANCIALLY EVERY TIME I'M DRIVING THE [XXX] THING! SORRY FOR THE COMPLAIN HONDA AND HOPE YOU CAN DO SOMETHING TO FIX THIS. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 55 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE BEGAN STEERING IN MULTIPLE DIRECTIONS CAUSING THE CONTACT TO MOMENTARILY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 18,000.

AT 18,000 MILES THE CAR REAR BRAKES STARTED TO SQUEAK WHEN APPLYING THE BRAKES FOR AWHILE THE PROBLEM WOULD DISAPPEAR BUT THE CAR WOULD SHUDDER WHEN COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP, NOW WHEN I DRIVE THE SQUEAKING NOISE CONTINUES AS I DRIVE AND DOESN'T GO AWAY THIS AFTERNOON SEPT. 2, 2010 I HAVE APPOINTMENT TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR
