2013 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

MY DAUGHTERS 2013 HONDA ACCORD V6 HAD A STUTTER UPON ACCELERATION. AFTER RESEARCHING THE ISSUE, THE TRANSMISSION WAS FLUSHED 4 TIMES. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE NEW TRANSMISSIONS HONDA PUT IN THE 2013. A FEW DAYS AGO THE SIDE WALL OF THE SIDE MISSION EXPLODED. CHUNKS OF METAL WAS FOUND ON THE GROUND AND IT SMELLED LIKE IT MIGHT CATCH ON FIRE.

HAVING "GRINDING" SOUNDS WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, HEARD THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE FOR MULTIPLE 2013-2015 ACCORD OWNERS. THIS IS A INTERMITTENT ISSUE THAT DOESN'T LET THE CAR START. LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS 07/28/2020 BUT IT HAD HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR.

I LOST MY POWER STEERING AT 65MPH DRIVING TO THE COAST ON HIGHWAY 26 IN OREGON. I NEARLY CRASHED MY CAR ON THE CURVE WHEN MY WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN LIKE IT NORMALLY DOES. I HAD TO YANK THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT TO STAY ON THE ROAD. I WAS TERRORIST! I SLOWED MY CAN TO 50MPH THE REST OF THE 45 MILES TO MY BEACH HOUSE IN SEASIDE OREGON. THE STEERING CONTINUED TO GET WORSE AND I HAS HAPPY TO HAVE THE TRAFFIC SLOW DOWN 20 MILES OUT OF SEASIDE TO BUMPER TO BUMPER. I BARELY GOT THE WHEEL TO TURN INTO MY DRIVEWAY AT OUR SEASIDE, OREGON HOME. I STARTED MY 'RESEARCH' TO SEE IF A RECALL HAD BEEN MADE ON MY CAR FOR POWER STEERING BECAUSE I WOULD HAVE DIED HITTING THE WALL OF DIRT AND TREES LEAVING THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE! I FOUND AN ARTICLE FROM 2014 THAT 374,000 PEOPLE HAD COMPLAINED OF THIS SAME PROBLEM. AND THAT YOU WERE INVESTIGATING BACK IN 2014! MY CAR ONLY HAS ABOUT 42,000 MILES ON IT AND THAT WAS THE TIME OF THEM GOING OUT ACCORDING TO THE ARTICLE. CARS EFFECTED WERE 2013-2017 HONDA ACCORDS EX. MINE IS THAT AND A V6. HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE CRASHED & DIED WITH THIS FAULTY PART? DO YOU HAVE RECORD OF IT? I WANT THIS ELECTRIAL POWER STEERING PART RECALLED!! YOU HAVE FAILED WITH NOT RECALLING IT BACK IN 2014!! I AM HOLDING "YOU" ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS HAPPENING TO ME!! I WANT YOU TO PAY FOR MY CAR TO BE FIXED AND MY RENTAL CAR! I NEED YOU TO RESPOND TO ME [XXX] [XXX] IS MY CELL. YOU ARE LUCKY I DIDN'T CRASH!! MY CAR IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY IN SEASIDE, OREGON AND I NEED IT TOWED TO BEAVERTON, OREGON TO GET IT FIXED. I HAVE POSTED THE 2014 ARTICLE OF YOU NOT RECALLING THIS! INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE JERKED AND VIBRATED ABNORMALLY WITH THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING FAILURE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE VEHICLE WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND DECELERATED TO 40 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. BOB HOWARD HONDA LOCATED AT 13201 N. KELLY AVE, OKLAHOMA CITY, OK 73131, AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150,000.

WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA ACCORD FROM THE DEALERSHIP I NOTICED SOMETIMES THE PUSH START WOULD STALL OR SOUND LIKE IT WAS FAILING. ALSO MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT RESPOND TO MY KEY FOB. ALL OTHER DOORS RESPOND TO IT EXCEPT THE DRIVER DOOR. I HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND STILL THE ISSUE HASN'T BEEN RESOLVED. I HAVE BEEN TAKING THE ACTUAL KEY OUT OF THE FOB AND INSERTING IT INTO THE CAR DOOR TO UNLOCK MY DRIVER SIDE DOOR. NOW THE AC HAS BEGAN TO STOP AND START. IT ALMOST SOUNDS LIKE THE FAN MOTOR IS KICKING ON AND OFF. AND MY DRIVER SIDE SEAT IS NOT SLIDING BACK PROPERLY. IT WILL BEGAN TO GLIDE THEN STOP. THEN I HAVE TO KEEP PRESSING AND IT'LL GLIDE BACK A LITTLE AND THEN STOP AGAIN. OVERALL I THINK THERE IS SOME SORT OF ELECTRICAL SHORTAGE OR SOMETHING IS HAPPENING WITH IT. ACCORDING TO THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL SYSTEM RECALL SENT OUT JUNE 29, 2017. AS STATED ON THEIR WEBSITE THIS COULD RESULT IN AN ELECTRICAL SHORT INCREASES THE RISK OF A FIRE. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID IS 17V418000 !

1. THERE IS HESITATION WHEN ACCELERATING AND THE SHIFTS ARE HARD AND JOLTING 2. THE DOWNSHIFTING COMING FROM HIGHWAY SPEEDS IS TERRIFYING. HARD, JOLTING SHIFTS THAT HAPPEN WAY TOO EARLY AND WAY TOO CLOSE TOGETHER. IT MAKES IT LIKE THE CAR IS STALLING CAUSING A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND THERE REALLY NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR A TUNING SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT FIXES THIS. *TR

VEHICLE STALL, FAILED TO ACCELERATE . THE STALL IS COMMON AND HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS INTO AN ACCIDENT . I WENT TO HONDA AND NO ISSUE WAS FOUND, I AM THINKING THIS MIGHT BE FUEL PUMP RECALL. *TR

IBA CONDUCIENDO Y DE MOMENTO SE PUSO DURA LA DIRECCIN. LO ESCANEAN, LE BORRAN EL ERROR Y ENCIENDE SIN PROBLEMA, POSTERIORMENTE AL APAGARLO NUEVAMENTE PRESENTA LA DIRECCIN DURA. LE BORRAN NUEVAMENTE EL ERROR Y MIENTRAS NO SE APAGUE NO FALLA. I WAS DRIVING AND AT THE TIME THE DIRECTION GOT HARD. THEY SCAN IT, ERROR IT ERROR AND IT TURNS ON WITHOUT PROBLEM, AFTER TURNING IT OFF AGAIN IT PRESENTS THE HARD ADDRESS. THE ERROR IS CLEARED AGAIN AND AS IT IS NOT TURNED OFF, IT DOES NOT FAIL. *TR

THE HOSE ON THE GAS TANK HAS A HAIRLINE CRACK IN IT. THE ONLY WAY TO REPAINT IS TO CHANGE THE WHOLE GAS TANK WHICH IS $1200. THE FUEL TANK IS ON BACKORDER SO OBVIOUSLY OTHERS HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH IT. *TR

APPARENTLY MANY HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT FAULTY STARTERS IN THIS PARTICULAR MODEL, AND SURE ENOUGH I EXPERIENCED IT TODAY. THE STARTER FAILED. THIS IS FROM A COLD START AND IT'S HAPPENED THREE TIMES ALREADY. *TR
