2015 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

WHILE I WAS DRIVING MY CAR DOWN A ROAD THAT WAS PAVED NO FASTER THAN 35MPH WITHOUT ANY OTHER VEHICLES IN FRONT OR BEHIND ME OR EVEN ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD MY SUNROOF EXPLODED. IT MADE THE LOUDEST SCARIEST NOISE I'VE EVER HEARD! WHEN I CALLED HONDA TO RECEIVE HELP I WAS ENTIRELY IGNORED AND BLOWN OFF. THEY BASICALLY TOLD ME IT HAPPENS AND IS A COMMON ISSUE, WELL IF THAT'S THE CASE WHY WASN'T I INFORMED OF THAT WHEN I BOUGHT MY CAR?

LONG STORY SHORT, I TOOK THE 2015 HONDA ACCORD FOR A TEST DRIVE AND IT SEEMED FINE. THE NEXT DAY AFTER DRIVING QUITE A BIT MY LOWER BACK STARTED BURNING. I COULDN'T ADJUST THE SEAT TO MAKE IT COMFORTABLE OR STOP THE BACK PAIN. IT FELT LIKE IT CUT OFF THE CIRCULATION IN MY LEGS AFTER JUST DRIVING 30 MILES. I COULDN'T TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY PAID FOR ME TO GET A SEAT WEDGE FOR MORE CUSHION. THAT JUST PUT ME HIGHER IN THE SEAT AND THE LUMBAR AT MY TAILBONE. I HAVE TO DRIVE A LOT FOR MY WORK AND IT'S KILLING MY LOWER BACK AND NECK. I'VE TRIED NUMEROUS CUSHIONS, PADS AND BACK SUPPORTS BUT NOTHING SEEMS TO MAKE THIS SEAT WORK. I CAN'T DRIVE IT WITHOUT PAIN AND AM AT A LOSS ON WHAT TO DO OTHER THAN TAKE A MASSIVE LOSS.

DUE TO HONDA USING SOY BASED WIRING, RODENTS CHEWED THROUGH THE WIRING IN OUR ENGINE AREA AND IN THE UNDERSIDE OF OUR HOOD AREA. REQUIRED REPAIR OF OVER $3000 AT FOLSOM LAKE HONDA. HONDA KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM... WHY NO RECALL? THEY SHOULD PAY FOR REPAIRS. THEY ARE SELLING RODENT PROOF TAPE AT DEALER OR SUGGEST PUTTING DRYER SHEETS IN OUR ENGINE AREA??!,, I BELIEVE CLASS ACTION SUIT HAS BEGUN IN CALIFORNIA. WE WOULD LIKE TO BE INVOLVED.

I HAVE A 2015 HONDA ACCORD LX. I STARTED EXPERIENCING PROBLEMS WITH THE STEREO APPROX NOVEMBER 2016. WHEN I WOULD TOGGLE BETWEEN THE RADIO PRE-SETS I WOULD LOOSE EVERYTHING, NOW SOUND NO STATIONS. IT IS NOT TILL AFTER I SHUT MY CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES THAT IT WILL RESET. I HAVE TAKEN VIDEO AND AN ACTUAL SERVICE ADVISOR AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS SEEN WHAT IT IS DOING. SINCE THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT WHY IT WAS DOING THIS, THEY REPLACED THE STEREO WITH, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS A NEW ONE, BUT IT WAS A RE-MANUFACTURED ONE I FOUND OUT AFTER I WENT TO CONNECT MY PHONE BACK TO MY CAR AND A BUNCH OF NAMES POPPED UP IN THE PHONE AREA. I WAS TOLD HONDA WILL ONLY AUTHORIZE A RE MANUFACTURED ONE. THE STEREO THAT WAS INSTALLED NOW IT DOING THE SAME THING. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS MY IPHONE AND I NEEDED TO GET A NEW PHONE. MY PHONE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE ACTUAL RADIO STATIONS. BLUETOOTH, ITUNES AND PANDORA YES MY PHONE AFFECTS THOSE BUT NOT THE RADIO. AND IF IT WAS MY PHONE THEN HOW CAN I MAKE CALLS WHEN IT ALL WAS NOT WORKING?

HONDA ACCORD ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED-BRAKES,STEERING,FLASHER LIGHTS, POWER, THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM FAILED AS I WAS MAKING A TURN ONTO A VERY BUSY STREET. IF THIS EVENT HAPPENED ON A BUSY STREET WITH A POWER FAILED SYSTEM, I MAY HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT TO ME AND OTHER CARS DUE TO LACK OF CONTROL.

08/04/2016 SIDEWALL BLOWOUT ON GOODYEAR ASSURANCE ULTRATOUR 215/55 TIRE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. NO OBSTACLES OR ROADWAY OBSTRUCTIONS HIT JUST SUDDEN FAILURE OF TIRE. 08/23/2016 SIDEWALL BLOWOUT ON SAME MAKE AND MODEL TIRE WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. ALSO NO OBSTACLES OR ROADWAY OBSTRUCTIONS HIT JUST SUDDEN FAILURE OF THE TIRE. 12/23/2016 CATASTROPHIC FAILURE OF SAME MAKE AND MODEL OF TIRE. WAS DRIVING THRU AN INTERSECTION OF A CITY STREET AT APPROX. 15 - 20 MILES / HOUR FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND TIRE BLEW OUT. VEHICLE IS A BRAND NEW ONE OWNER VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 22,000 MILES AT THE TIME OF EACH FAILURE.

TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALER ON OCTOBER 18, 2016 PER LETTER FROM HONDA TO HAVE PRODUCT UPDATE DTC P1890 PERFORMED. THIS WAS AN UPDATE TO THE PCM SOFTWARE FOR CVT TRANSMISSION. EVER SINCE THIS TIME THE MILEAGE HAS DROPPED SIGNIFICANTLY. I WAS GETTING 33MPG AROUND THE CITY. IT HAS DROPPED TO 27MPG. HIGHWAY MILEAGE HAS ALSO DROPPED FROM 37MPG TO 34MPG. CAR FEELS AS THOUGHT IT IS IN TOO LOW OF A GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING - A CHANGE FROM BEFORE THE SOFTWARE UPDATE. TOOK CAR BACK TO TWO DIFFERENT HONDA DEALERS. THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG NOR HAVE THEY HEARD ABOUT SIMILAR PROBLEMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE RPMS SURGED AT LOW SPEEDS. WHEN REVERSING OR DRIVING ACCELERATING FROM A STOP, THE VEHICLE WOULD SPEED UP. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THE ISSUE THE DAY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100...UPDATED 03/01/17 *BF *CN

ON MARCH 20, 2015, I LEASED A HONDA ACCORD FOR 3 YEARS FROM THE HONDA OF MENTOR AUTOMOBILE DEALERSHIP. IMMEDIATELY AFTER TAKING POSSESSION OF THE CAR, I NOTICED THE CAR HAD A VERY SIGNIFICANT VIBRATION PROBLEM. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR A FEW DAYS, I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND COMPLAINED ABOUT THE VIBRATION. THE SERVICE PERSONNEL I COMPLAINED TO ACTED LIKE THE CAR HAD NO VIBRATION PROBLEM AT ALL --- INTIMATING I WAS IMAGINING THINGS. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR A FEW DAYS MORE, I NOTICED THAT WHEN STOPPING AT A STOP LIGHT AND SHIFTING THE TRANSMISSION FROM DRIVE TO NEUTRAL, THE VIBRATION LESSENED CONSIDERABLY. MY CAR CAME EQUIPPED WITH A "CONTINUOUSLY VARIABLE TRANSMISSION (CVT)", SO I ASSUME THE VIBRATION IS MOST LIKELY RELATED TO THE TRANSMISSION (I HAVE NEVER BEEN AN AUTO MECHANIC). I HAVE HAD THE CAR FOR 22 MONTHS NOW AND, ALTHOUGH THE VIBRATION PROBLEM HAS LESSENED SOMEWHAT, IT IS CAUSING ME CONSIDERABLE CONSTERNATION BECAUSE I HAVE DECIDED TO PURCHASE THE CAR OUTRIGHT WHEN MY 3-YEAR-LEASE EXPIRES. I AM WORRIED THAT SHORTLY AFTER I PURCHASE THE CAR OUTRIGHT I WILL BE FACED WITH A HORRENDOUS BILL TO REPAIR/REPLACE THE CVT OR WHATEVER IT IS THAT IS CAUSING THE VIBRATION. QUESTION: IS THE NHTSA MAINTAINING A LOG OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING HONDA"S "VIBRATION COMPLAINTS" SIMILAR TO MINE? I AM 82 AND WITH MY MEAGER PENSION I CERTAINLY DO NOT WANT TO BE HIT WITH A HORRENDOUS REPAIR BILL IF THE VIBRATION PROBLEM IS DUE TO THE HONDA'S INCOMPETENCE. *TR

PURCHASED 2 HONDA ACCORD EX-L V6'S IN DECEMBER OF 2014. JUST 1 WEEK AGO ONE OF THE BATTERIES SUDDENLY DIED AND EVENTUALLY SHOWED "CHECK CHARGE SYSTEM" ON THE DISPLAY. HONDA DETERMINED THAT THE BATTERY WAS REALLY LOW AND REPLACED IT. FAST FOWARD JUST A COUPLE OF DAYS AND THE OTHER ONE STARTS TO EXHIBIT THE SAME EXACT PROBLEMS. TAKING IT TO HONDA AGAIN TODAY BUT ASSUME THEY WILL REPLACE THE BATTERY AS WELL. SEEMS ODD THAT THE BATTERY WOULD DIE ON BOTH VEHICLES LESS THAN 2 YEARS AFTER PURCHASE. CARS ARE DRIVEN DAILY FOR ATLEAST A 20 MINUTE COMMUTE EACH WAY PLUS OTHER TRIPS/ERRANDS/ETC. VERY UNACCEPTABLE AND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE DATING BACK TO PREVIOUS MODELS.
