2015 Honda Accord

I am reporting suspected odometer fraud and possible VIN [XXX] entation involving a vehicle being offered for sale. The seller stated the vehicle has approximately 123,000 miles. However, a vehicle history report and third-party valuation (Carvana) show the same vehicle VIN [XXX] ) wi [XXX] les recorded. This is a discrepancy of more than 180,000 miles. I personally photographed the VIN plate on the vehicle and confirmed the VIN [XXX] ) matches the h [XXX] ing high mileage. The seller did not disclose the higher mileage and is advertising the vehicle at a value consistent with a much lower-mileage vehicle. This appears to be an intentional misrepresentation of the vehicle’s true mileage. I have screenshots of the listing, seller communications stating 123,000 miles, VIN [XXX] ) photos, and documentatio [XXX] er mileage history. I am submitting this complaint to report potential odometer rollback or mileage fraud so the vehicle can be investigated before another buyer is harmed.

There is a clicking noise from both sides of the wheels and it causing to vibrate at higher speeds. cClicking sound is more prominent when turning from left to right. I am concerned that the axles may fail as I see online that a recall has been issued for the lubricant used in manufactoring the part

While driving, Steering looses power, so steering is very difficult. Car needs to be restarted to gain control of steering. Took it to a mechanic and he explained that Honda accords have this problem. He scanned the vehicle and received a DTC code 53-02 and advised to visit Honda dealer for repairs or possible recall fix. The car vin number search does not list any outstanding recalls.

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact’s son stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled and failed to exceed 50 MPH. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was able to restart; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that there was a misfire in cylinder #2, causing engine failure, and the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 164,040.

Lost power without any warning while taking an exit on the highway. Fortunately, I was able to pull over without an incident. Mechanic scanned : P0087. Replaced high pressure fuel pump assembly and associated parts. Honda had a recall on 2013-2014 models. Extremely likely this problem persisted in the 2015 model but Honda did not include this model year in the recall. Very expensive repair.

Having a huge amount of probable parasitic drain. Can’t figure out where it’s coming from but killing a brand new battery in weeks

Steering system is stiff and all the warning lights are on in the dashboard. Vehicle pulls hard to the left and you have to hold the wheel steady to keep it from pulling to the left. Appears there is a steering rack issue. I've seen on internet that many 2015 Accords have this issue. There needs to be a recall. Honda dealership quoting $3500 to $5000 to repair. This is not right!!

1. POWER STEERING RACK 2. ABS MODULATOR My 2015 Honda Accord experienced a sudden failure of both the ABS system and power steering rack. The dealership confirmed the failure was not due to neglect or wear. Due to the safety risk the repair estimate exceeding $14,000 for the safety system and regular repairs, I was forced to trade in the vehicle. Honda denied goodwill assistance on the safety systems (power steering rack & ABS modulator) November 17, 2025 saying vehicle is out of warranty and cited value and year of the vehicle. I was the only owner of vehicle and only serviced at Balise Honda of West Warwick and/or Johnston RI.

Driving and without warning steering light came on, display flickered, engine surged, and complete loss of steering in a matter seconds. I was barely able to turn car onto a driveway where the engine shutdown. I restarted engine and noticed considerable knocking, put car in gear and engine shut-off. I had car towed to a garage and am waiting for info. I should note that the previous month there has been some parasitic draw that requires me to jump start the car every few days even with a new battery.

ABS MODULATOR INTERNAL FAILURE 85-01/61-11 The car cut off in the middle of me driving on the highway with my children also in the car with me it has been inspected by [XXX] who also states this is a major issue and should have been placed under recall years ago and that this is one of the major safety hazards they have seen when it cut off 4 lights appeared instantly INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

System charging error prompts on the dash board continuously. Check my battery and it’s not my battery. Steering wheel light turned on and car began to lock and the whole dashboard started to flicker while I was driving . I was driving and my steering wheel locked on me always causing an accident. I tried getting a jump and my battery is fine. Then when I try to move the vehicle the steering wheel starts to lock up. My radio even started to reset and glitch and my system was shutting back on and off while I was driving.

Another vehicle pulled in front of my vehicle, I was unable to avoid the accident and struck the left side rear of his vehicle with my left front. The drivers side air bag did NOT deploy but the passengers side did deploy. I was wearing my seat belt as was my passenger in the right front seat, I also had a passenger in the right rear seat area and none of us were injured. I've been in contact with a couple body shops and the body shop where it's located and all of them said the drivers side air bag should have definitely deployed. No air bag lights were on prior to the accident as well as no other warning lamps. If I hadn't been wearing my seat belt I would have sustained injuries. The car is most likely totaled, the estimate is over $ 18000 and I am waiting for the insurance company to make a settlement offer.

Multiple issues having to do with battery replacement, Alternator, and starter. Discussed this same issue with Honda they have ignored the issue had the vehicle inspected by dealership multiple times and by local mechanics. The vehicles also for many years would lock steering wheel and starter would lock wouldn't allow driver to start also when vehicle starts it’s a full force at once and you feel the force. I am worried that’s there is an issue also when the fuel travels after it starts from the full force I had mentioned.

I bought a car from a private seller on Craigslist. I've only driven the car for 2k miles before the check engine light came. Before that I had to spend like 1k on the breaks oilchange etc to get the car upto date. Now it feels really unsafe to be in especially for my daughter who is [XXX]. The dmv suspected odometer fraud.

I purchased a car from AutoNation Toyota Hayward in Hayward California on June 21, 2025. And on June 24,2025, the check engine light appeared. A mechanic checked my car for the code and informed me that the catalytic converter is faulty. The dealership had informed me that they check the car prior to be sold. As it goes through multiple checks. However, the car that was sold was faulty. They refused to answer my questions as to why a faulty car was sold. As I was driving the car back to the dealership, I could smell the fumes throughout my car.

Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while attempting to register the vehicle, it was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 60,300 and at the time of registration, it was discovered that the mileage was 242,000.

On June 17, 2025, I went with my mechanic to inspect a car I was considering purchasing. The vehicle is a 2015 Honda Accord Sport, showing approximately 60,000 miles on the odometer. My mechanic performed a diagnostic scan, and everything appeared to be in good working order at the time. However, on June 23, 2025, I went to the DMV to register the vehicle, and I was informed that the car has a fraudulent odometer reading. The DMV has opened an investigation, but I won’t receive the results for a few months. I am now concerned that the car may not be safe to drive. It emits a burnt plastic smell after being driven and turned off, which raises serious safety concerns. I paid $10,700 for the vehicle and an additional $311 to register it and obtain a temporary plate.

I am filing a complaint regarding an unresolved and hazardous safety issue tied to a federally mandated recall on my 2015 Honda Accord (Recall #KH0 – Battery Management Sensor). The recall was eventually performed, but only after inappropriate pushback from the dealer due to my vehicle having a salvage title — which is irrelevant under federal recall law. The core issue is that this sensor regulates the electrical system and can cause overcharging or undercharging — which in my case, led to premature alternator failure. Honda’s own Technical Service Bulletin (TSB 17-069) acknowledges the link between BMS failure and electrical system damage. Furthermore, Honda’s own documentation acknowledges that many customers — particularly used car or private party buyers — were never properly notified of the Battery Management Sensor (BMS) recall. As a result, these customers may be unjustly denied warranty or reimbursement claims, through no fault of their own. This applies directly to my case. I had already replaced the alternator out of pocket due to failure, long before I was ever informed of the recall. Once I became aware of the issue and brought the car in, I was relieved that Honda performed the BMS recall repair, which resolved the dashboard alerts. However, it is unfair and unacceptable that Honda refuses to cover the damage the faulty system caused prior to the recall being completed — especially when I was never properly notified in the first place. This places the financial burden of a known safety defect onto the customer, despite the existence of a federally mandated recall directly linked to the damage.
