2015 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while her daughter was driving 25 MPH, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the engine compartment, and the vehicle started to vibrate, and almost stalled. The contact’s daughter safely drove to the residence, and the vehicle was towed to a local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that there were two engine cylinders that were inoperable, and that the engine needed to be disassembled for additional diagnostic testing. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The contact linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V121000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING); however, the VIN was not included. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 93,466.

This has happened twice now, seemingly out of the blue and seemingly since the Honda dealership replaced the car’s faulty starter and torque wheel. The electric power steering light comes on, the steering becomes stiff and the car hard to control. Luckily the first time, it was quick and then went away. I was rounding a corner and the car became difficult to control. I was going between 35-40 mph. The second time I was going 15-20 mph. I went over the railroad track which caused a slight bump, the power steering light came on and it became difficult to control the car. I pulled over to the side of the road and into a parking lot best I could. I turned the engine off and on again. I tried to move the steering wheel but it was still stiff. I turned the car off again and it seemed ok. I am lucky I was not traveling at 80 mph on the highway or couldn’t control the car in a different situation.

Faulty starter which went and was replaced at least twice by previous owner. Upon 2nd replacement of starter by me, the car still would not run. It was determined by my mechanic that this was a bigger issue and probably the torque converter had been ruined by the starter as the wheel was missing and had broken teeth due to impact of the starter. Honda dealership/maintenance confirmed this and the torque converter and starter needed to be replaced. This cost me $4500, not to mention the previous starters and labor. Honda confirmed after market starters cause damage to the torque wheel/converter. Many mechanics use aftermarket parts, as they are more affordable for the consumer. Honda should have specific notes on this, as to not cause damage to the vehicle. Honda would not cover the costs, as they said my car was no longer under warranty at 155,000 miles. However the starter had been replaced before 100,000 another time.

While I was driving my 2015 Honda accord my car suddenly slowed down. Then it stopped driving so I pulled to the side of the road. When I stopped and put it in park to turn off/on it didn’t move an inch. This happened on my way to work in traffic I have no idea what is going on. I’m located in the US Virgin Islands ???? but the car was shipped down from Florida to here. We have an Honda dealership that I can carry it to if necessary for inspection. My safety at moment was very risky because I was on my way to work and it had traffic all of a sudden my car slows down with me on the highway without any warnings or indications that it was failing so I was really scared at the moment because I had to think fast to get myself to the side of the road. I haven’t carried it to a dealer as yet because I haven’t had time to do so. None of the superior authorities have inspected or has inspected my car since it has happened I called for opinions some said it could be transmission failure. They where no symptoms of any warning signs or indications that my vehicle was going to give out it just stopped moving.

When the car is started up cold, it will sometimes start to stall on the road. Turning on and off the car usually gets it working correctly again. Usually will only happen if the temp is at or near freezing. 2015 Honda Accord EX. This has been. Happening for years, but Honda says that there’s no open recalls even though this seems to be similar to the recall (23V858000) from 12/17/2023.

1) Auto transmission. 2) Subject to failure at any speed. 3) Dealer confirmed problem. 4) Inspected by certified technician at the dealership(see report) 5) There are no warning or trouble codes, confirmed by technician report, it is a random event and can occur anytime the vehicle is in motion.

Door locks will stop working randomly. Some doors will not lock or unlock. I took to metro honda once to get it fixed and again it is happening. The driver side back door never locks or unlocks. The other back door started doing the same this past week. And the passenger door wouldn’t lock or unlock but since taking it to metro it has worked. This will start happening randomly. Also, i have been having problems with the starter. I got it replaced one a couple months ago from a mechanic and again it will not turn on on the first try.

My oil filter is a constant problem for me and no matter how many times i get it replaced it’s still leaking and i was informed that it may cause a fire and i have children in my car every day and i want to avoid that happening

In the last several years my daughter’s Honda Accord has stalled multiple times leaving her stranded and us having to have the vehicle towed. This last time was this evening in the middle of a busy intersection to get on a ramp to a highway. She was unable to get out of the car due to traffic and barely avoided getting rear ended. The time before was in the middle of the interstate. The car just died. We have had it towed multiple times to auto shops and have been told it is a fuel pump issue and the recall on the car needs fixed. I have tried repeatedly to get this fixed and I’ve been told that none of the dealers have the parts from Honda that once a dealership gets a part and they will let us know. I asked what are we supposed to do till then as this is an extreme safety hazard for my daughter to drive this car, and have gotten no answers to when this part will even be in.
