2015 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING AT 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE INADVERTENTLY ENTERED FAIL SAFE MODE, WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO STALL AND THE VEHICLE TO ENTER BATTERY MODE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST ONTO THE ROAD SHOULDER AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DUPLICATED. THE DEALER UPDATED THE SOFTWARE PATCH; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO START THE ENGINE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

INTERMITTENTLY, BUT ALWAYS UPON ACCELERATION (COULD BE PULLING ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM A STOPPED POSITION, MERGING/SPEEDING UP TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY OR PASS ANOTHER VEHICLE, OR STARTING TO MOVE WHEN THE LIGHT TURNS GREEN) THE CAR WILL FALL FLAT WITH NO POWER. IT DOESN'T STALL, JUST DOESN'T RESPOND TO THE GAS PEDAL. MOST TIMES, HAPPENS IN SECOND GEAR. RELEASING THE GAS PEDAL AND THEN PRESSING IT AGAIN MOST TIMES RESOLVES THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES, IT TAKES A FEW TRIES. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM, AND I HAVE HAD MANY MOTORISTS SWERVE AROUND ME OR BLOW THE HORN AT ME BECAUSE I CAN'T GET THE CAR MOVING FAST ENOUGH. I JUST SPENT $30,000 ON THIS NEW CAR, AND THE DEALERSHIP CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM SO THEY'RE SENDING ME ON MY WAY WITH A VEHICLE THAT'S A POTENTIAL DEATH TRAP.

THIS IS 2015 BRAND NEW ACCORD LX WITH CVT. THE ISSUES ARE: 1. THE CAR HAS OBVIOUS SIDE TO SIDE SWAY AT SPEED 15 MPH. 2. THE CAR HAS BIG AMPLITUDE VIBRATION AT SPEED 25~35 MPH. ESPECIALLY ON A DOWNWARD SLOPE. 3. THE WHOLE CAR IS VIBRATING AT HIGH SPEED (>70 MPH). MY HANDS AND LEGS FELT NUMBED AFTER DRIVING 30 TO 40 MINUTES ON HIGHWAY.

THE HEADREST SLANTS FORWARD PUSHING THE HEAD OUT OF LINE WITH THE BACK. THIS CAUSES NECK PAIN. THE HEADREST WILL ADJUST UP AND DOWN ONLY. AFTER DRIVING LONG DISTANCE YOUR NECK IS IN PAIN.

PROBLEM USUALLY OCCURS DURING THE DAY AND WHEN THE WEATHER IS HOT. POWER SYSTEM PROBLEM DISPLAY COMES ON AND ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT AS WELL. TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON HELPS BUT THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON FOR ANOTHER 24 HRS OR SO BEFORE TURNING OFF. THE CAR FELT LIKE IT LOSE GAS ENGINE POWER AND OPERATES ELECTRIC ONLY. I WAS GOING 65MPH ON THE FREEWAY, AND WHEN I TRY TO STEP ON THE GAS PEDDEL, I CAN MAINTAIN THAT SPEED AS LONG AS THE BATTERY HAD ENOUGH POWER BUT THE GAS ENGINE WILL NOT KICK ON.

LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE NEXT NEAREST EXIT, HALF A MILE AWAY. HAD THE ERROR MSG APPEAR 4 TIMES IN 2 WEEKS. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES WITHIN THAT TIME FRAME.
