STARTER ISSUE. ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. 400-700$ REPAIR MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT SAME PROBLEM MY CAR 2013 ACCORD EXL 81000K. *TR

WE WERE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON A TRIP TO TEXAS AND THE STEERING WHEEL AUTOMATICALLY TURNED ON ITS OWN, CAUSING US TO ALMOST CRASH INTO OTHER CARS ON THE HIGHWAY. NO LIGHTS APPEARED ON OUR DASH AND IT WAS OUT OF THE ORDINARY. WE WERE DRIVING 75-85 MPH AND COULD HAVE INJURED MULTIPLE PEOPLE IF WE HAD CRASHED. THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME SO HARD TO CONTROL REQUIRING MY FIANC TO GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL TO TURN IT INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE OF THE HIGHWAY. ONCE HE LET GO OF THE STEERING WHEEL, IT WOULD TURN REALLY FAST ON ITS OWN TO THE LEFT. HE TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF, BUT THE ISSUE WAS STILL THERE. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER AND EXPLAINED WHAT I FOUND ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. HE SAID HE WOULD RESEARCH IT AND CALL ME BACK BUT HE NEVER RETURNED MY CALL. THIS IS BIG SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF AND SHOULD COVER THE REPAIR COST. I TRIED CALLING CORPORATE ONLY TO HAVE MY CALL CUT OFF 3 TIMES. WHAT IS THE ACTUAL PROBLEM; BECAUSE WITHOUT A DASHBOARD LIGHT AND NO CODE WE DON'T KNOW? *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2013 HONDA IN 2019. ALREADY IT IS SHOWING THAT IT HAS A FUEL RAIL PRESSURE SENSOR PROBLEM THAT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE. WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION. NOW IT CAN ONLY BE DRIVEN 40MPH OR LESS. I RECEIVED A PRINTOUT THAT DETERMINED THIS DIAGNOSIS AND STATED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I NOTIFIED HONDA AND THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. COULD YOU PLEASE HELP ME TO CONFIRM THE TRUTH? *TR

2013 HONDA ACCORD V6EXL STARTER MAKES GRINDING NOISE WHEN BEING STARTED FOR THE FIRST TIME THAT DAY. HAPPENS MORE ON COLDER MORNINGS THAN WARM MORNINGS. IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR ACCORD. *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. THE DASH ON THE CAR DISPLAYED A "START STOP" ERROR. THEN, THERE WAS MUCH LESS HORSEPOWER. I AM GUESSING THERE WAS BETWEEN 10 AND 20 HORSE POWER. THE CAR COULD BARELY GO 20 MILES PER HOUR. THEN, THE DASH SAID, STOP THE CAR. YOUR CAR IS OVER HEATING. SO, I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE STREET AND STOPPED THE CAR. I WAS LUCKY THAT I WAS ON A RESIDENTIAL SIDE STREET. WHERE I LIVE, SOME SECTIONS OF FREEWAY ARE 12 AND 16 LANES WIDE. IF I HAD LOST POWER IN THIS SITUATION, I DON'T THINK I COULD HAVE MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY. THE WATER PUMP ON MY MODEL CAR WAS PART OF A SAFETY RECALL. AUDI CLAIMS THAT THEY HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN BEFORE MY CAR WAS MANUFACTURED. HOWEVER, THE WATER PUMP ON MY CAR ONLY LASTED FOR 49,000 MILES. I SUSPECT THAT THE RE-DESIGN OF THE WATER PUMP IS STILL NOT ADEQUATE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE WITH OUR WATER PUMP. *TR
