2014 Honda Accord Complaint Log

2014 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO THE DESIGN AND SAFETY OF THE VEHICLES EXPANDED VIEW MIRROR. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THERE WAS CONSIDERABLE VEHICLE DISTORTION RELATED TO THE SIZE AND LOCATION OF VEHICLES AS THEY APPEARED IN THE EXPANDED VIEW DRIVER'S MIRROR, GENERATING A PERSPECTIVE WHERE ONE VEHICLE APPEARED AS TWO VEHICLES. ALSO, VEHICLES TRAVELING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION APPEARED TO SWERVE AS THEIR IMAGE ENTERED AND EXITED THE EXPANDED VIEW DRIVER'S MIRROR. VEHICLES IN THE FAR LEFT LANE APPEARED LESS THAN HALF THEIR ACTUAL SIZE AND AT TIMES, SEEMED AS IF THEY WERE RIGHT NEXT TO HIS VEHICLE. *JB

WHENEVER I SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, THE IS A CLICKING SOUND MADE. *TR

THE AIR CONDITIONING DOES NOT COOL LIKE IT SHOULD. WE HAVE THE SAME ISSUE WITH OUR HONDA ODYSSEY.

I PURCHASED A NEW HONDA ACCORD IN MAY 2014 IN AUSTIN, TX. ABOUT ONE MONTH LATER, THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING AND LANE DEPARTURE WARNING SYSTEMS FAILED. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALER TOLD ME THE CAMERAS WERE NOT ABLE TO HANDLE THE HEAT IN TEXAS. THEY SUGGESTED A FIX OF TURNING THE AC ON TO COOL THE FRONT WINDOW. AFTER SEVERAL TRIES THAT SEEMED TO FIX IT, BUT IT WAS ONLY VERY TEMPORARY. THESE SYSTEMS ARE ADVERTISED TO BE LIFE-SAVING SAFETY FEATURES, BUT THEY STILL DON'T WORK AFTER MORE THAN 6 MONTHS. IS THERE A RECALL IN THE WORKS? *TR

AFTER A COUPLE OF MONTHS OF DRIVING MY NEW 2014 HONDA, I FELT THE CAR SWAYING AND PULLING TO THE RIGHT. IT WAS DIFFICULT FOR ME TO KEEP THE CAR DRIVING STRAIGHT. I TOOK THE CAR IN TO BE INSPECTED IN AUGUST BECAUSE THE PULLING BECAME VERY SEVERE EVEN WHEN DRIVING 30MPH I COULD FEEL IT. THEY SAID THE ALIGNMENT WAS OFF AND READJUSTED THE ALIGNMENT. THE CAR DROVE MUCH BETTER. A MONTH LATER NOW I FEEL THE CAR START TO PULL TO THE RIGHT AGAIN. NOT AS BAD AS BEFORE BUT STILL NOTICEABLE. I TRIED TO TAKE IT IN AND THE DEALERSHIP DROVE IT AROUND THE BLOCK AND SAID IT WAS FINE. I TRIED TO EXPLAIN IT TO THEM BUT THEY SAID ITS FROM THE CROWN IN THE ROAD. NONE OF MY OTHER CARS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. I HAVE CONTACT HONDA CORPORATE AND WAITING TO BE CONTACTED. I HAD TO GO INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND REQUEST THE SERVICE DIRECTOR BECAUSE I FELT THAT THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND WAS NOT BEING TAKEN SERIOUS. *TR

MY CAR ROLLS DOWN MY DRIVEWAY ABOUT 3 FEET BEFORE IT STOPS, MY DRIVEWAY IS ABOUT 15 DEGREES, NO RAIN, NO SNOW, CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THIS WAS NORMAL, I TEND TO THINK ITS VERY DANGEROUS. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES IN ALL WEATHER CONDITIONS AND THE CAR WAS STATIONART AND IN PARK WHEN THIS HAPPENED, I DID MY OWN TEST ON THIS SITUATION AND IT WAS VERY REPEATABLE.

2014 HONDA ACCORD FAILS TO START PERIODICALLY. THE DEALERSHIP OFFERS NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM IF THERE IS NO ERROR CODE AND ACTS IF THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS HAPPENED TO THE ACCORD. TIME FOR ANOTHER RECALL.. THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET.

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

I HAVE A BRAND NEW 2014 HONDA ACCORD SPORT. IT HESITATES WHEN I ACCELERATE FROM ALMOST ANY SPEED. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS I AM NERVOUS IF I HAVE TO ACCELERATE QUICKLY FOR ANY REASON, AND GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY CAN BE TOUGH TOO. I HAVE SEEN OTHERS LIST THIS SAME ISSUE ON HERE, IT'S OBVIOUSLY A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. *TR

ACCIDENT OCCURRED AT SOUTH HIGH SCHOOL ROAD AND WEST 25TH ST. INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA. I WAS DRIVING NORTH INSIDE LANE OF 5 LANE HIGH SCHOOL ROAD. DRIVER AT FAULT CROSSED 2 NORTH BOUND LANES FOR SOUTH BOUND MIDDLE TURNING LANE FROM W 25TH STREET WHICH TEES INTO HIGH SCHOOL ROAD. I BROAD-SIDED DRIVER IN BACK SIDE DOOR/FENDER/TRUNK AREAS. THE AIRBAG EXPLODED AND SHEARED THE SKIN OFF MY RIGHT UNDER ARM. I WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL AND CONTINUE RECEIVING TREATMENT FROM MY DOCTOR. THIS CRASH INCIDENT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE TAKATA AIR BAG INVESTIGATION CONDUCTED BY NHTSA AND HONDA SHOULD BE NOTIFIED OF THIS SAFETY DEFECT. *TR UPDATED 1/22/2015 *JS

I PURCHASED A NEW HONDA ACCORD EX, 4 DOOR SEDAN ON MAY 26, 2014. ON JUNE 1, 2014, I WAS AT RED TRAFFIC LIGHT (ZERO MILE SPEED) AND CAR WAS IN DRIVE POSITION. I TRIED TO ADJUST THE TEMPERATURE, BUT BY MISTAKE I PRESSED THE START ENGINE SWITCH BUTTON INSTEAD OF CONTROLLING THE TEMPERATURE SWITCH, WHICH IS JUST NEXT TO ENGINE SWITCH. SURPRISINGLY THE RESULT WAS THAT MY CAR TURNED OFF. ON JUNE 2, 2014, I CONTACTED HONDA DIRECTLY AND THE REPRESENTATIVE INFORMED ME THAT EVEN IF YOU ARE AT STREET OR HIGHWAY SPEED AND IF YOU PRESS THE START SWITCH FOR 2 SECONDS, THE CAR ENGINE WILL TURN OFF AT WHATEVER THE SPEED OF CAR IS, RESULTING IN YOUR CAR SPEED CHANGE, IF YOU PRESS THE POWER SWITCH AND IT WILL TURN OFF YOUR ENGINE TO 0 MPH IN A MATTER OF A SECOND. I AM VERY SCARED ABOUT THIS SAFETY FEATURE AND NOW HAVE MANY CONCERNS, AS LISTED BELOW: 1.WHY IS THE START SWITCH SO CLOSE TO THE AIR-CONDITION CONTROL SWITCH? 2.THE ENGINE SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TURN OFF WHILE THE CAR IS IN DRIVING MODE. 3.SINCE ALL OF THE CONTROLS ARE BY RIGHT HAND, THE ENGINE SWITCH SHOULD BE INSTALLED ON THE LEFT HAND SIDE, SO IT CANNOT TURN OFF, EVEN BY MISTAKE, AND NO ONE IN THE CAR CAN REACH THIS SWITCH EXCEPT THE DRIVER. I HOPE YOU UNDERSTAND THAT A VERY IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE IS NEEDED PLEASE REPLY TO ME AT YOUR CONVENIENCE, THANK YOU. *TR

SEATBELT BEEN BROKEN SINCE I BOUGHT CAR. IM NOTICING MORE AND MORE PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR.I BELIEVE I WAS SOLD A LEMON.WHEN PASSANGER SEAT BELT IS FASTENED, LIGHT COMES ON NOTIFYING ME THAT PASSANGER AIR BAG IS NOT ON. THERE IS NO WAY TO MAKE IT COME ON. AND SEATBELT DOES NOT STAY SECURED, IT KEEPS COMING UNFASTENED.VERY DANGEROUS FOR MY PASSENGERS.I WANT MY MONEY BACK FOR THIS CAR, NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PUSH START FEATURE WOULD NOT START THE ENGINE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ESSERMAN LARGE HONDO (554 NEE AVE, FLORIDA CITY, FL 33034, (844) 329-6036) TWICE. DURING BOTH VISITS, THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NETS CAMPAIGN NUMBER: (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON THREE OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE CAR IS EXPERIENCING A VERY HESITANT ACCELERATION UPON INITIAL ACCELERATION TO THE POINT OF ALMOST STOPPING. THIS HAS CONTINUED NOW WITH JUST OVER 1,000 MILES. CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND WAS TOLD BY A MAINTENANCE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THEM, BUT THERE IS NO FIX KNOWN. THE PROBLEM IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY HAZARD AS YOU CAN NOT DEPEND ON THE CAR ACCELERATING WHEN NEEDED. IT DOES NOT HAVE RELIABLE ACCELERATION FROM A STOP. I WAS TOLD BY THE MAINTENANCE REPRESENTATIVE THAT THE CAR IS A FLY-BY- WIRE AND HAS NO THROTTLE CABLE ANY LONGER, BUT IS CONTROLLED BY THE COMPUTER. HE ASSURED ME THERE WAS NO FIX KNOWN NOR DID HONDA CORP INFORM THEM OF A PROBLEM OR A FIX. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE WITH THIS CONDITION AND HAVE NO FEELING OF RELIABILITY WITH THE CAR'S ACCELERATION. *TR

WE HAVE HAD OUR 2014 HONDA ACCORD FOR JUST OVER ONE MONTH. ALL OF OUR FAMILY MEMBERS HAVE BEEN HIT IN THE HEAD BY THE TRUNK. THE TRUNK DOES NOT STAY OPEN ON EVEN A MODEST GRADE, BUT DOES NOT FALL DOWN FOR SEVERAL SECONDS, ALLOWING PEOPLE TO LEAN INTO THE TRUNK BEFORE IT HITS THEM. MY DAUGHTER REQUIRED STITCHES TODAY FOR AN INJURY TO THE BRIDGE OF HER NOSE FROM THE TRUNK LID. I HAVE OWNED 15 CARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD ONE WHERE THE TRUNK LID WILL NOT REMAIN UP. *TR

THE EXTERIOR PROJECTOR HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2014 HONDA ACCORD EX-L ARE VERY UNSAFE AS YOU CAN NOT SEE ABOVE THE BRAKE LINE. THERE ISN'T ANY AMBIANCE LIGHTING FROM THE FRONT OF THE CAR WHEN DRIVING. THIS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE ANY PEDESTRIANS, BICYCLISTS, ANIMALS OR SIGNAGE THAT IS ABOVE OR ON THE SIDES OF THAT LINE. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THE HEADLIGHTS ARE AIMED TO THEIR SPECIFICATIONS. I BROUGHT IN VIDEO THAT SHOWS THE ISSUE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER AGREED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM BUT HONDA DOESN'T HAVE A SOLUTION. SHE NOTICED IT ON HER OWN CAR. ALSO AFTER TALKING TO OTHER 2014 HONDA OWNERS THEY ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AS I AM. I JUST DON'T KNOW HOW MANY WOULD COMPLAIN. I FIND THIS A SAFETY ISSUE WHICH MIGHT CAUSE ACCIDENTS OR EVEN DEATHS AND THOUGHT IT VITAL TO REPORT IT. I SENT THE COMPLAINT DIRECTLY TO HONDA AND THEY HAVE NO PLANS ON FIXING IT. I FEEL CAUGHT AS THERE ISN'T ANYTHING WE AS CONSUMERS CAN DO TO FIX IT ON A BRAND NEW CAR. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS ISSUE BECAUSE I WOULD HATE TO READ THAT SOMEONE DIED BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. *TR

CAR IS PULLING TO THE LEFT AT MODERATE TO HIGH SPEEDS AND IT'S DRIVING ME CRAZY BECAUSE I TRAVEL 90% HIGHWAY AND IT'S NOT A SAFE SITUATION. THE CAR IS A 2014 ACCORD EX-L 4 WITH ONLY 1160 MILES. I'M BEGINNING TO SUSPECT THE GOODYEAR TIRES THAT CAME WITH IT AS I DROVE THE V6 VERSION WHICH COMES WITH MICHELINS AND I DIDN'T EXPERIENCE ANY PULLING. I ALSO DROVE ANOTHER NEW EX-L 4 CYL WITH GOODYEAR TIRES AND IT PULLED JUST LIKE MINE DOES. IT'S NOT PULLING BECAUSE OF THE CROWN IN THE ROAD. I'VE BEEN DRIVING CARS FOR 20 YEARS AND NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS. BEEN TO SHOP UNDER WARRANTY THREE TIMES. 1) ADJUSTED TIRE PRESSURE 2) FULL ALIGNMENT 3) FRESH SET OF GOODYEAR FUEL MAX TIRES. I DON'T THINK THESE ARE GOOD TIRES BUT THEY ARE OEM. *JS

TO: NHTSA I HAD PURCHASED A BRAND NEW HONDA ACCORD IN MARCH 2014 AND SOON AFTER I NOTICED A RATTLING NOISE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. I TOOK IT FOR REPAIR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOOK ME ON A TEST DRIVE TO HEAR THE NOISE AND THEY ATTEMPTED TO FIX IT WITHOUT SUCCESS. THE RATTLING NOISE IS NOT ALWAYS PRESENT AND IT COMES UNPREDICTABLY THEREFORE EVERY TIME I GO TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY WANT ME TO DRIVE IT AND REPLICATE THE NOISE WHICH IS SOMETIMES NOT POSSIBLE. I HAVE RECORDINGS OF THE NOISE AND THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT THAT TO FIX THE CAR. A REPRESENTATIVE FROM HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE HAD PERSONALLY TOLD ME THAT IT IS A DEFECT AND THEY HAVE NO RESOLUTION FOR IT AND THEY WOULD NOTIFY ME WHEN THEIR ENGINEERING FIGURES OUT A FIX. I HIRED A LEMON LAWYER A FEW MONTHS AGO TO HELP ME. I AM INFURIATED THAT HONDA IS OFFERING ME TO SETTLE BY PAYING ME ?SOME MONIES FOR MY TROUBLE? WITHOUT GOING TO TRIAL BUT THEY STILL ARE NOT WILLING TO FIX OR REPLACE THIS DEFECTIVE CAR. I FIND IT UNACCEPTABLE THAT HONDA IS ALLOWING ME TO DRIVE THIS CAR EVEN THOUGH I EXPRESSED SAFETY CONCERNS AND EVEN WORSE THEY TRY TO PUT A PRICE TAG TO SETTLE FOR MY SAFETY INSTEAD OF ACKNOWLEDGING AND RESOLVING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE A TRIAL SCHEDULED FOR SEPTEMBER 22- 23, 2015, I FEEL LIKE THIS APPOINTMENT IS TOO FAR AND THE MORE I DRIVE THIS CAR THE HIGHER RISK IT POSSES FOR MY SAFETY. MY EXPERIENCE WITH HONDA HAS BEEN AN APPALLING ONE SO FAR AND I WANT TO EXPRESS MY FRUSTRATION WITH THE PROCESS. AFTER HONDA?S HISTORY AND PENALTY OF WRONGDOING TO THE PUBLIC I WOULD ASSUME THAT THEY TAKE MORE AGGRESSIVE MEASURES ADDRESSING SAFETY ISSUES BEFORE THEY CAUSE HARM. I WOULD LIKE YOUR ASSISTANCE AND INVOLVEMENT IN THIS BATTLE WITH HONDA AND TRYING TO MAKE THEM REALIZE THAT THEY CAN?T JUST PAY INDIVIDUALS MONEY AND BRUSH SAFETY ISSUES UNDER THE CARPET. *TR

THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM HAS NOT WORKED DURING THE TIME I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE ATTEMPTED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS TO SIMULATE A CONDITION IN WHICH THE FCW SHOULD ALERT, WITH NO SUCCESS. I HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE SELLING DEALER FOUR TIMES. ON TWO OF THE VISITS THE FCW ONLY WORKED ONCE AFTER TESTING FOUR OR MORE TIMES.THE FCW NOTIFICATION WAS TOO CLOSE FOR SAFELY TAKING ACTION. THERE WAS NO CHANGE IN THE WARNING DISTANCE WHEN CHANGING THE SETTINGS- LONG, NORMAL, SHORT. ON THE TWO OTHER OCCASIONS THE FCW DID NOT WORK AT ALL. DEALER ADVISED IT WAS TO DANGEROUS TO RIDE ALONG ON TEST DRIVES. HONDA AMERICA WOULD NOT FURNISH EXPECTED STOPPING DISTANCES TO DETERMINE IF FCW WAS WORKING PROPERLY BECAUSE THERE WAS TOO MANY VARIABLES AND THIS INFORMATION WAS PRIVATE COMPANY INFORMATION. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY DEVISE AND SHOULD WORK PROPERLY. HONDA AMERICA REFUSED MY REQUEST TO SEND TO AN EMPLOYE TO TEST DRIVE. UPDATED 9/28/15 *LN UPDATED 12/08/2017*CN *TR

FIRST TIME DROVE AT NIGHT 4/20/2014. HEADLIGHTS ARE ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE, UNSAFE AND CANNOT POSSIBLY MEET US SAFETY STANDARDS. THEY SHINE, MAYBE 50 FEET ON A FLAT SURFACE. MUCH LESS WHEN GOING DOWNHILL. MORE WHEN GOING UPHILL. VERY, VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE STREET SIGNS, SUCH AS BEND IN ROAD, STOP AHEAD, ETC., PARKED CARS, PEDESTRIANS AND ANIMALS. THERE IS ACTUALLY A DEFINED HORIZONTAL LINE ABOUT HALF WAY TO 2/3 OF THE WAY DOWN THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE TOP PART OF THE WINDSHIELD BEING ANYWHERE FROM COMPLETELY BLACK TO DIMLY LIT DEPENDING ON AMBIENT LIGHTING.THIS IS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT AND VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. TOOK CAR BACK TO DEALER ON 4/22/2014. THEY INFORMED US HEADLIGHTS WERE AIMED CORRECTLY. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALERSHIP ALSO SAID HE HAS HAD OTHER COMPLAINTS, BUT DID NOT KNOW IF HONDA WAS WORKING ON A SOLUTION. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, A LOUD POP WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE GLASS FROM THE SUNROOF HAD SHATTERED AND IMPLODED INTO THE INTERIOR OF THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE AND THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE OF VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER, WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE SUNROOF NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TO BE INSPECTED AND REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND AND THERE WAS A SUDDEN INCREASED IN ENGINE RPMS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL HAD TO BE DEPRESSED ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR IN ORDER FOR THE VEHICLE TO RESPOND. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE MASS AIR FLOW METER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATELY FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,000.

UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVERS SEAT, MY LEGS AND THIGH GET NUMB AND GO TO SLEEP, MY SCIATIC NERVE GETS AGRIVATED AND HURTS, AFTER DRIVING FOR 1 HOUR, YOUR LEGS ARE TOTALLY NUMB AND THEN YOU CAN'T WALK FOR NEARLY 100 STEPS, THESE SEATS ARE DANGEROUS AND A HEALTH HAZARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED AS IF THE HIGH BEAMS WERE ON AND THEN BECAME DIM. THE FAILURE RECURRED WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS TURNED. IN ADDITION, THE RADIO AND BLUETOOTH FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN NUMEROUS TIMES TO MCCURLEY INTEGRITY HONDA LOCATED IN KENNEWICK, WA 99336 WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT FIND A FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED AND MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V418000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

2014 HONDA ACCORD EX-L. THIS IS THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVER'S SEAT I HAVE EVER BEEN IN. I CAN NOT GET COMFORTABLE NO MATTER WHAT ADJUSTMENTS ARE MADE. I'M DEVELOPING EXTREME LOWER BACK PAIN AFTER EVERY DRIVE OF 20 MINUTES OR MORE. I DON'T KNOW IF IT'S THE HEADREST BEING TOO FAR FORWARD OR IF IT'S BECAUSE THERE IS A SMALL SPACE AT MY LOWER BACK BELOW THE LUMBAR SUPPORT THAT HAS NO PADDING OR NOT ENOUGH PADDING ON THE SEAT. THE SHORT TEST DRIVE PRIOR TO PURCHASE WAS NOT LONG ENOUGH TO REALIZE THERE WOULD BE A PROBLEM. . THE MAIN CONSUMER COMPLAINT FOR 2013 AND 2014 MODELS ARE THE SEATS. HTTP://WWW.ABOUTAUTOMOBILE.COM/COMPLAINT/2013/HONDA/ACCORD/SEAT. *TR

HESITATION (UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION) OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY AT LOW SPEED. WHEN THE CAR IS AT A LOW SPEED AND MORE POWER IS NEEDED AND THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED THERE IS NO RESPONSE INITIALLY; ACCELERATOR IS THEN PRESSED MORE AND THE CAR THEN ACCELERATES MUCH MORE THAN WAS EXPECTED, RESULTING IN A JERKY, ON/OFF TYPE ACTION. I BELIEVE THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT EITHER WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC OR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE GENTLY AND HAVING THE CAR ACCELERATE MORE THAN EXPECTED (IN A PARKING LOT OR HEAVY SLOW TRAFFIC ETC). *TR

THE CAR IS NOT GETTING THE ADVERTISED GAS MILEAGE. I AM ONLY GETTING 21 TO 22 MPG WHICH STINK. THE CAR BACKS UP WHEN IN PARK ALSO. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS PLEASE. THE BOTTOM UNDER THE CAR IS NOT FINISHED OFF. ONE OTHER THING IS THAT THE BACKUP CAMERA IS NOT VERY CLEAR AND YOU CANNOT SEE PROPERLY AND HAVE TO GET OUT OF YOUR CAR TO CHECK ALL THE TIME. THE BACK END IS UP TOO HIGH. *TR

CARS FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM IS NOT WORKING CONSISTENTLY, NOR CORRECTLY. WHEN IT WORKS IT GOES OFF AT ABOUT HALF A CAR LENGTH ONLY, NO MATTER HOW YOU ADJUST THE ALARM TO GO OFF, ONE CAR LENGTH, TWO CAR LENGTH, OR THREE CAR LENGTH. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO HONDA, AND I DO HAVE A CASE NUMBER, AND HONDA DID SEND A AREA MANAGER TO CHECK THIS OUT. I STILL FEEL THAT THE SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK, IT IS NOT A DEALER PROBLEM, THIS IS OUR FIFTH HONDA. IF MORE CARS WITH THIS SYSTEM ARE PRODUCED AND LET OUT ON THE HIGHWAYS THERE WILL BE SOME MASSIVE ACCIDENTS. PLEASE HELP US CORRECT THIS PROBLEM. *TR

HELLO. I ALREADY POSTED MY PROBLEM WITH HEAD-REST FOR THE PILOT SEAT CAUSING NECK PAIN WHILE DRIVING AS THE HEAD-REST ALWAYS, REGARDLESS THE HOW WE SET SEAT POSITION, PUSHES THE HEAD FORWARD IN A C POSITION CAUSING THE NECK PAIN. I CAN'T DRIVE A CAR WITH THIS CONSTANT PAIN!. TODAY, I READ ABOUT THE COMPLAINS FOR THE 2013 AND 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CATEGORY WITH MORE COMPLAINS FOR BOTH YEARS IS THE SEAT CATEGORY! I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT NHTSA HAS DONE NOTHING REGARDING THIS ISSUE TO RESOLVE IT. WOULD YOU PLEASE TAKE INTO YOUR CONSIDERATIONS OURS CONSUMERS' COMPLAINS REGARDING NOT ABLE TO DRIVE A CAR WITH THIS IMPORTANT ISSUE? THANK YOU. *TR

TRUNK OPENS FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THIS USUALLY HAPPENS TWO OR THREE TIMES A MONTH WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT WHEN BOTH KEYS ARE 50 FEET OR SO FROM THE CAR AND NO ONE IS NEAR THEM. OBVIOUSLY NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT IT DOES MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SECURE ANYTHING OF VALUE IN THE TRUNK. HONDA REFUSES TO ADMIT THERE IS A PROBLEM BECAUSE IT WON'T HAPPEN WHILE THEY ARE STANDING THERE LOOKING AT THE CAR. SOME OF MY FRIENDS WHO OWN THE SAME TYPE OF HONDA ARE HAVING THIS SAME EXACT PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED ON A SLIGHT HILL AT 20 DEGREE AND UP , THE TRUNK IS UNABLE TO STAY OPEN FOR ME TO LOAD THINGS IN .. IT HAS FELL ON MY FOREHEAD MULTIPLE TIMES HURTING ME.. I ALWAYS HAVE TO HOLD UP THE TRUNK WITH ONE ARM WHILE LOADING THINGS INTO THE TRUNK. I'VE BEEN TO HONDA DEALERS AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME ITS THE WAY IT IS. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2014 HONDA CIVIC EXL NEW IN FEB 2014, AND EVER SINCE NEW THE TPMS LIGHT HAS BEEN TURNING ON, EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN UPDATED SEVERAL TIMES WITH THE LATEST SOFTWARE AT THE PURCHASING DEALERSHIP. EACH TIME AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED, THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. THE TPMS LIGHT COMES ON AT DIFFERENT INTERVALS, AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND OVER DIFFERENT TYPES OF ROADWAYS. I THEN CONTACTED HONDA AMERICA TO RESISTER A CASE NUMBER WITH THEM. HONDA AMERICA INSTRUCTED ME TO HAVE MY VEHICLE SERVICED AGAIN BY THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP, OVERNIGHT, SO THEIR TECHNICIANS CAN WORK IN CONCERT WITH THE DEALERSHIPS TECHNICIANS. WHATEVER THEY DID, DID NOT CORRECT THE SITUATION AS THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN WITHIN A WEEK. HONDA AMERICA THEN HAD ME BRING MY VEHICLE TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP, AGAIN OVERNIGHT. ONCE AGAIN THE LIGHT CAME ON WITHIN A WEEK. HONDA AMERICA NOW TELLS ME, AFTER 10 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP AND NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE, THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO TO REMEDY THE MALFUNCTIONING TPMS SYSTEM IN MY VEHICLE.

HEAD-REST PROBLEM -> NECK PAIN. AFTER DRIVING A FEW MILES, I NOTICE THAT NO MATTER WHICH POSITION I SELECTED THE PILOT'S SEAT , MY HEAD IS ALWAYS PUSHED FORWARD MAKING A NECK PAIN. I TRIED TO ADJUSTED THE HEAD-REST WITH THE DIFFERENT POSITIONS I COULD MAKE MY NECK FEEL BETTER IN ALL I STILL CAN'T MAKE NECK PAIN GO AWAY EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT. IT'S REALLY PAINFUL MY HEAD IS ALWAYS LEANING FORWARD NO MATTER HOW I ADJUST THE HEAD-REST. THIS IS THE SAME PROBLEM I HAD FOR FORD-F150 TRUCK, THE HEAD REST ARE TOO BIG THUS MAKING ALWAYS THE HEAD LEAN FORWARD AND CAUSING ME A NEXT PROBLEM. IN BOTH VEHICLE, IT'S THE SAME. I CAN'T DRIVE COMFORTABLE!!!! WITHOUT STARTING TO FEEL THE NECK PAIN RIGHT AND FEEL MY HEAD IS BEING PUSHED FORWARD. PLEASE HAVE HONDA AND OTHER MANUFACTURES REVIEW AND ADD A HEAD-REST ADJUSTMENT FEATURE TO THE HEAD-REST SO THAT WE CAN PUSH BACK THE HEAD-REST A LITTLE BACKWARDS TO ALLOW THE NECK/HEAD REST COMFORTABLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL BLOCKED HIS VIEW OF THE SPEEDOMETER AND OTHER GAUGES REGARDLESS OF HOW THE SEAT WAS POSITIONED BECAUSE OF HIS SHORT STATURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO STATED THAT THERE WAS NO FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE. UPDATED 03/21/14*LJ UPDATED 03/28/2014 *JS

SECOND DAY I HAD THE VEHICLE I WAS DRIVING AT NIGHT AND HAD NO ISSUES ON THE HIGHWAY BUT TURNING ONTO A RURAL HIGHWAY WITH NO LIGHTS I FOUND THAT THE VISIBILITY THRU THE WINDSHIELD WAS RELEGATED TO THE BOTTOM THIRD. THE REST OF THE WINDSHIELD APPEARED DARK AND ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE THRU. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AND RETURNED THE VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THAT WHAT I ENCOUNTERED WAS NORMAL BECAUSE HONDA USES A LOOK DOWN HEADLIGHT SYSTEM, IN FACT THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID HIS WIFE ONLY DROVE WITH THE BRITES ON IN DARK AREAS BECAUSE SHE COULD NOT SEE THRU THE WINDSHIELD. I SAID THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID HE COULD TRY TO MITIGATE THE EFFECTS BY RAISING THE HEADLIGHT ADJUSTMENT, BUT HE WARNED ME THAT AT SOME POINT THE HEADLIGHTS MIGHT BLIND ONCOMING TRAFFIC. HE RAISED THE LEVEL OF THE LIGHTS AND I THEN INSPECTED THE RESULTS LATER THAT NIGHT. I FOUND THAT I HAD ALMOST HALF OF THE WINDSHIELD CLEAR AND THE REST WAS SHADED VERY DARK. I BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A SAFETY DEFECT IN THIS VEHICLE AND I HAVE ASKED THE DEALER TO MAKE REPAIRS. SO FAR THERE SEEMS TO BE NO REPAIR AVAILABLE. I DRIVE A LOT ON THESE BACK ROADS AND I HOPE I WILL NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE OF THIS DEFECT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE HEADLIGHTS FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE VEHICLE CAUSED A REFLECTIVE GLARE TO THE E DRIVER'S SIDE VIEW MIRROR, OBSTRUCTING THE DRIVER'S VISIBILITY OF THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE PROBLEM. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 150. UPDATED 03/31/14*LJ

ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS (ROUGHLY ONCE A MONTH), I HAVE COME BACK TO MY PARKED CAR TO FIND THAT THE TRUNK IS OPEN. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN MULTIPLE LOCATIONS, INCLUDING AT HOME WHERE MY KEY IS HANGING ON A HOOK AND NOT IN MY POCKET (ELIMINATED ACCIDENTAL PRESSES AS A CAUSE). HONDA SERVICE CENTER REPLACED THE TRUNK LATCH AND CABLE, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. *TR

I CAN'T HEAR THE TURN SIGNAL CLICKER. DEALER SAID ALL OF THESE HONDA ACCORDS ARE LIKE THAT. IF I MAKE A WIDE TYPE TURN, THE TURN SIGNAL WILL NOT SHUT OFF AND I MAY HAVE DRIVEN A MILE OR TWO BEFORE I REALIZE THE SIGNAL IS STILL ON. I DO WEAR NEW HEARING AIDS. I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER CAR I HAVE OWNED IS THERE A GOV'T STANDARD FOR THE CLICKER SOUND? *JS

WHENEVER IT RAINS MODERATELY OR HEAVY THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDSHIELD WIPER PULLS BACK THE WATER IN MY SIGHT OF VIEW. THIS IS AN ANNOYANCE AND A SAFETY HAZARD THAT I WOULD LIKE TO GET CORRECTED. *TR

THE FIRST TIME I DROVE MY CAR IN THE FREEWAY, AFTER SPEED UP TO 50 OR 55 THE CAR STARTED TO SHIFT TO THE LEFT SIDE STRONGLY MANDATING ME TO PULL THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT SIDE TO KEEP IT IN THE LANE, SO I HAD TO KEEP TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT TO KEEP THE CAR STRAIGHT. *TR

ALL 2013-2016 HONDA ACCORDS WITH V6 ENGINES AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAVE A DESIGN FAILURE THAT CAUSES THE STARTER AND TORQUE CONVERTER TO GRIND INTERMITTENTLY UNTIL THEY FAIL. THIS DESIGN FAILURE CREATES AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITION AND CAN LEAD TO THE OWNER STRANDED. THE COST TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM IS OVER $4,000 . MY FAILURE STARTED WITHIN THE FIRST 3 YEARS OF SERVICE WITH LESS THEN 50,000 MILES. I'VE HAD TO PAY FOR 3 NEW STARTERS AND THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. AN ONLINE SEARCH SHOW THIS PROBLEM OCCURS AT A VERY HIGH RATE ON THESE VEHICLES. I BELIEVE THE PROBLEM IS THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION WON'T ALIGN AND EVEN AFTER THE TORQUE CONVERTER IS REPLACED THE PROBLEM WILL STILL OCCUR BECAUSE OF THE CLEARANCE FAILURE DUE A MANUFACTURER DESIGN ISSUE.

I PURCHASED NEW 2014 HONDA ACCORD ON 1/27/14 WITH 34 MILES. ON 1/31/14 WITH ONLY 117 MILES, I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PARK, PERHAPS 2 MPH WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN, THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD ON IT'S OWN WITH GREAT FORCE. I WAS APPX 5 FEET AWAY FROM STOPPING WHEN SUDDENLY THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED, THE CAR LUNGED, HIT THE CONCRETE STOP, JUMPED OVER AND STOPPED ONLY BY STEEL CABLES.THIS OCCURRED ON THE 4TH FLOOR (SPIRAL PARKING) . IF THE CABLE SYSTEM WERE NOT IN PLACE, I WOULD HAVE ENDED UP LANDING ON THE TOP OF THE CARS PARKED ON THE 3RD FLOOR. THIS ENTIRE INCIDENT OCCURRED IN 2 SECONDS OR LESS. I WAS COMPLETELY STRAIGHT IN LINE HAVING TURNED RIGHT FROM THE CENTRAL AISLE, ABOUT 5 FEET FROM THE CONCRETE BLOCK, TRAVELING NO MORE THAN 2 MPH. WITH NO WARNING, THE CAR LUNGED FORWARD, AIRBAG DEPLOYED AND SENT THE CAR INTO THE CABLES. I RECEIVED A BURN TO MY RIGHT HAND FROM THE AIRBAG AND WAS COMPLETELY AND UTTERLY IN SHOCK. I HAVE AN EXEMPLARY DRIVING HISTORY FOR 44 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD ANYTHING SO TRAUMATIZING OCCUR EVER. AS I STATED, THIS OCCURRED SO QUICKLY AS I WAS ONLY 1-2 SECONDS FROM TURNING THE ENGINE OFF. IN REPORTING THIS ACCIDENT TO HONDA, THEY RECOMMENDED HAVING IT TOWED TO SEIDNER'S WITH WHOM THEY PARTNER WITH. THEY COMPLETED THE REPAIRS ON 3/1/14.THE DAMAGE WAS EXTENSIVE, $11,600 TO THE FRONT END, HOOD, ETC. THE CAR WAS AT THE COLLISION CENTER UNTIL 3/1/14. BECAUSE OF THE CLAIM I OPENED WITH HONDA, THEY INSPECTED THE CAR 3/10/14, HOWEVER ONLY MADE A HAND-WRITTEN NOTE THAT THEY TEST DROVE IT FOR 48 MILES, NOTING "NO DEFECTS IN MECHANICAL INSPECTION, NO REPAIRS RECOMMENDED." I AM UTTERLY TERRIFIED THAT THIS COULD OCCUR AGAIN. PLEASE, CAN YOU DIRECT ME AS TO WHAT I CAN DO TO ENSURE THAT THIS NEVER RECURS. *TR

THE TRUNK OPENS UP ALL BYE ITS SELF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES (MORE THAN 10) OVER THE PAST YEAR. I HAVE FINALLY DIS-CONNECTED THE POWER UNLOCK FROM THE TRUNK AND IT NO LONGER OPENS ON IT OWN. *TR

IT WAS A COLD DAY WITH WIND CHILLED DOWN TO SINGLE DIGITS. I TOOK SOMETHING OUT FROM THE TRUNK, GOT INTO MY CAR AND CLOSED THE DOOR. THEN I NOTICE THAT THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE WINDOW GLASS HAS BEEN BROKEN INTO TINY PIECES. THE WHOLE GLASS WAS GONE, WITH HALF LANDED INSIDE THE CAR AND HALF OUTSIDE. THE CAR WAS PARKED AT THE TIME AND THERE WAS NO ONE AROUND AND NOTHING THAT I KNOW OF HAD HIT THE CAR DOOR WINDOW. THE GLASS JUST SPONTANEOUSLY SHATTERED. *TR

HONDA ACCORD EX-L 2014 WILL SHUT-OFF AND COAST TO A STOP IF THE "START PUSH BUTTON" IS PRESSED WHILE DRIVING. THE CAR SHOULD BE IN PARK BEFORE PRESSING THE START BUTTON HAS ANY AFFECT !! WHILE DRIVING WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE, I PLACED MY HAND ON MY RIGHT KNEE AND ACCIDENTALLY HIT THE "START PUSH BUTTON" AND TO MY SURPRISE THE CAR SHUT-OFF AND COASTED TO A STOP. I COULD NOT RESTART UNTIL I PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK.. DANGEROUS !! I WAS LEAVING MY HOUSE WITH THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION IN DRIVE WHEN MY HAND GOING TO MY RIGHT KNEE HIT THE START BUTTON, THE CAR STOPPED!. FORTUNATELY I WAS GOING LESS THAN 5MPH SO NO ACCIDENT. I SPOKE TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD, THAT'S THE WAY IT IS - JUST LIKE IF YOU REMOVE YOUR KEYS WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER YOU CAN NOT REMOVE YOUR KEYS UNLESS THE CAR IS IN PARK AND THE KEY IS TURNED FROM RUN. *TR

CAUTION, BE CAREFUL - MY CAR STOPPED WHEN THE START BUTTON WAS PRESSED WHILE DRIVING. THE START BUTTON IS NEAR MY KNEE AND AN ACCIDENTAL PRESS CAUSED MY MOVING CAR TO SHUT DOWN - FORTUNATELY I WAS JUST STARTING AND ONLY GOING 5 MPH. CAN YOU IMAGINE WHAT WOULD HAPPEN IF MY KNEE HIT THE START BUTTON WHILE GOING 65 IN TRAFFIC.. THE DEALER SAID THAT IS NORMAL!! *TR

PURCHASED A NEW 2014 HONDA ACCORD EX FROM THE DEALERSHIP. AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS, I'VE EXPERIENCED MODERATE TO SEVERE PAIN IN MY NECK, UPPER BACK AREA AND SHOULDERS. I'VE FELT DISCOMFORT EVEN ON MY DAILY WORK COMMUTE OF 15 MINUTES ONE WAY. THE PAIN IS MORE SEVERE AFTER DRIVING FOR 40 MIN. I SEE MY CHIROPRACTOR MORE OFTEN NOW. I NOTICED THE HEADREST IS CURVED FORWARD AT AN EXTREME ANGLE, PUSHING MY HEAD FORWARD, PUTTING STRESS ON MY NECK. MY UPPER BACK AND SHOULDERS FEELS STRAINED - REGARDLESS OF THE HEIGHT OF THE HEADREST. THE HEADREST WAS THE CAUSE OF MY PAIN. I AM 4'11 AND SIT UP STRAIGHT. I'VE TRIED MULTIPLE SEAT ADJUSTMENT AND BOUGHT NECK SUPPORTS BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED. I RESORTED TO PUTTING MY HEADREST BACKWARDS TO PROVIDE RELIEF. I'VE MENTIONED THIS TO A SALESPERSON AND THE PARTS DEPT. AT THE DEALERSHIP. BOTH OF THEM SAID HONDA DOES NOT HAVE ANY REPLACEMENT AND THE HEADREST WAS DESIGNED TO COMPLY WITH FEDERAL REGULATIONS. PRIOR TO THIS, I DROVE A 99 HONDA ACCORD EX AND THIS ISSUE NEVER OCCURRED. I'VE TRIED PUTTING THE HEADREST FROM MY 99 ACCORD INTO THE 2014 BUT IT WON'T FIT DUE TO DIFFERENT CENTER-TO-CENTER POST MEASUREMENTS. EVEN THE BACKSEAT HEADRESTS FROM THE 2014 WILL NOT FIT IN THE DRIVER?S SEAT. I HAD PICTURES TAKEN OF ME SITTING IN MY 99 ACCORD AND THE 2014 ACCORD. IN THE ?99 ACCORD, MY NECK, UPPER BACK AND SHOULDER REST COMFORTABLY AGAINST THE SEAT AND HEADREST. IN THE 2014, THERE IS A GAP BETWEEN MY NECK, UPPER BACK AND SHOULDER FROM THE SEAT WITH THE UPPER PORTION OF MY HEAD PUSHED FORWARD FROM THE HEADREST. PLEASE INVESTIGATE SO HONDA CAN TAKE ACTION TO PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT OR MAKE IT A RECALL ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED FOR HEALTH, COMFORT AND SAFETY'S SAKE! *TR

TPMS LIGHT COMES ON REGULARLY. TIRE PRESSURE IS INFLATED TO SPECS. DEALER HAS HAD THE CAR FOUR TIMES AND RESETS THE SETTING. SERVICE MANAGER INFORMS ME THIS 2014 CRV MODEL HAS A WELL KNOWN HISTORY OF THIS MALFUNCTION AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I TOLD HIM HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE OWNERS WITH A LOANER AUTO UNTIL THEY COME WITH A FIX, BUT HE SAYS THEY HAVE NOT AUTHORIZED THIS INTERIM SOLUTION. HAVE HAD THE CAR FOUR MONTHS. TOO LONG TO DRIVE A CAR WITH THIS SERIOUS DEFECT! *TR

2014 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE SUDDEN ACCELERATION. *SMD AS THE CONSUMER WAS TRYING TO PARK THE VEHICLE, WITH HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL, AND TOOK OFF ON ITS OWN, EVEN THOUGH HER FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE, AS SHE PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE. THE VEHICLE CAREENED AT A HIGH SPEED AROUND THE PARKING LOT, JUMPED SEVERAL CURBS, AND SIDE SWIPED THREE OTHER CARS, BEFORE COMING TO A STOP WHEN THREE TIRES BLEW OUT AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL TURNED PERPENDICULAR TO DIRECTION OF MOTION. THE AXLE BROKE, SO THE VEHICLE ENDED UP TRAVELING ON THE RIM SIDES WITH THE ENGINE STILL RUNNING. *JB
