2017 Honda Accord Complaint Log

FOR THREE MORNINGS IN A ROW, UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE ALL THE MALFUNCTION INDICATORS FOR THE VEHICLE ASSIST SYSTEMS BECAME ILLUMINATED. ON THE TWO PREVIOUS DAYS, AFTER DRIVING FOR A SHORT DISTANCE AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATORS STOPPED ILLUMINATING. HOWEVER, AFTER SEVERAL RESTART ATTEMPTS THIS MORNING, THE MALFUNCTION INDICATORS REMAINED ILLUMINATED.

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT A GAS PUMP. AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK. I STARTED THE ENGINE, LEAVING IT IN PARK. I STEPPED OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO CHECK MY GAS CAP AND THE VEHICLE STARTED MOVING BACKWARDS QUITE FAST. I RAN IT DOWN, OPENED THE DOOR, BUT BEFORE I COULD BREAK IT THE DOOR WAS SERIOUSLY BENT. I BELIEVE THE ONLY EXPLANATION IS A FAULT IN THE TRANSMISSION WHERE THE GEAR SLIPPED FROM PARK TO REVERSE.

WHILE DRIVING MY NEW CAR ON A PUBLIC ROAD DURING A RIGHT TURN INTO ANOTHER PUBLIC ROAD, MY POWER STEERING FAILED ALMOST CAUSING A HEAD ON COLLISION WITH ON COMING TRAFFIC. THE DEALERSHIP LATER INFORMED ME THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO RODENT DAMAGE TO MY POWER STEERING HARNESS.

AFTER IT RAINED, WAS DRIVING ON HIGHWAY WHEN SUDDENLY SERIES OF ERRORS/PROBLEM MESSAGES CAME UP ON MY DASHBOARD. INCL, EMISSIONS CONTROLS SYSTEM PROBLEM, TIRE PRESSURE SYS PROB, AVOIDANCE COLLISION SYS PROB, COLLISION MITIGATION SYS PROB, POWER STEERING SYS PROB, ETC. MADE CALLS IMMEDIATELY TO HONDA CONTACTS AND GOT OFF THE FREEWAY. IT HAPPENED AS THE MAINTENANCE DEPT'S AT HONDA WERE CLOSING FOR THE WEEKEND. EXCEPT FOR THE MESSAGES THE CAR SEEMED TO BE DRIVING OKAY. STILL DROVE SLOWLY TO GET GROCERIES SO I WOULD NOT HAVE TO GO BACK OUT. AS I STARTED THE CAR AGAIN, THE POWER STEERING FAILED TO WORK; I COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL. TRIPLE A THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS DUE TO WETNESS GETTING INTO THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. WHEN I STARTED THE CAR WITH HIM PRESENT, POWER STEERING STARTED WORKING AGAIN. SO, I DROVE IT HOME AGAIN VERY SLOWLY. NEXT MORNING I STARTED THE CAR TO SEE IF I WOULD STILL GET THE FAILURE MESSAGES. THEY ARE STILL THERE. TOOK VIDEO OF MESSAGES AND WILL ATTEMPT TO SCREEN CAPTURE SOME OF THE MESSAGES.

I HAVE A CONTINUOUS SOUND IN MY DRIVERSIDE FRONT TIRE IT HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE I PURCHASE THE CAR THEY TOLD ME IT WAS SOMETHING THEY CAN FIX BUT IT ONLY STOP THE SOUND FOR A LITTLE WHILE SO I HAVE A BRAND NEW CAR THAT HAS A WHOPPING SOUND IN IT AS I GO DOWN THE ROAD THEY TOLD ME IT WAS BECAUSE OF THE RIM BUT IT WAS TOTALLY SAFE I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE PROCESS OF GETTING IT FIXED BECAUSE THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THEY RECALL IT'S DONE BEFORE THEY CAN FIX THE PROBLEM I DO NOT THINK IT'S FAIR THAT I HAVE BOUGHT A BRAND NEW CAR THAT HAS A ISSUE AND NO ONE IS CONCERNED ABOUT FIXING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. ADDITIONALLY, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INTERIOR LIGHTING WOULD REMAIN ILLUMINATED, THE IN-DASH NAVIGATION SYSTEM AND OTHER INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL LIGHTING WOULD BLINK OR FLASH INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AUTONATION HONDA (1990 COVINGTON PIKE, MEMPHIS, TN 38128, (901) 209-1283) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE THAT WAS ATTRIBUTED TO THE KEY FOB NOT BEING IN SYNC WITH THE VEHICLE'S ECU. THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, AFTER APPROXIMATELY THREE MONTHS OF DRIVING, THE FAILURE RECURRED. AFTER THE THIRD FAILURE, THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO THE DEALER. THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT SEVERAL WIRING HARNESSES HAD MELTED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE FAILURE COULD RECUR. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO GUARANTEE THAT THE FAILURE WOULD NOT RECUR AND TO GET RID OF THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO THE WARRANTY EXPIRING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 80. *TT *TR

BRAND NEW CAR THAT THE STEERING WHEEL VIBRATES A RIDICULOUS AMOUNT- DOESN'T FEEL SAFE. IT OCCURS WHILE DRIVING AND AT AN IDLE. OCCURS ON STREETS, HIGHWAYS ETC. BEEN TO DEALER, SERVICEMAN [XXX] AND THEIR TECHNICIAN AT SUBURBAN HONDA VERIFIED THEY FELT IT..HOWEVER SINCE THERE IS NO FIX PER HONDA I AM TO JUST LIVE WITH IT??? INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

IN THE FIRST SEVERAL WEEKS OF OWNERSHIP, I NOTICE A SLIGHT VIBRATION INSIDE THE CAR--FLOORBOARD, STEERING WHEEL, DASH BOARD--WHEN THE BLOWER MOTOR WAS TURNED ON WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. IT WAS FAINT AT FIRST, BUT THE VIBRATION HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. THE VIBRATION SEEMS MORE EXAGGERATED WHEN THE BLOWER AND A/C ARE ON TOGETHER, BUT THE VIBRATION IS STILL PRESENT WITH ONLY THE BLOWER MOTOR ON WITH THE ENGINE RUNNING. I DON'T RECALL ANY SOUND WITH THE VIBRATION. THE FIRST TIME I NOTICED THE VIBRATION WAS WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT. I TURNED THE BLOWER MOTOR ON FOR HEAT OR OUTSIDE AIR WHEN I NOTICED A FAINT VIBRATION AS I SAT IDLING, AT A STOP LIGHT. NOW, WHEN THE BLOWER MOTOR IS USED WITH VENTILATION, A/C, HEAT, ETC., THE INTERIOR OF THE CAR EMITS A DISTINCT VIBRATION UNTIL THE BLOWER MOTOR IS TURNED OFF. WITH THE ENGINE OFF, I HAVE TURNED THE BLOWER MOTOR ON AND THERE IS NO NOTICEABLE VIBRATION, SO THE BLOWER MOTOR VIBRATION APPEARS TO BE LINKED TO THE RUNNING ENGINE.

WHILE DRIVING ON I26 EAST OUTSIDE OF SPARTANBURG SC AT 75 MILES AN HOUR, I HIT A DEER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG DEPLOYED, THE DRIVERS AIRBAG DID NOT. THE SPARTANBURG HWY PATROL WROTE A INCIDENT REPORT ON 12/10/2016 AROUND 8PM. I HAVE PICTURES OF INCIDENT AT THE SCENE. *TR

THE WIND NOISE IS NOT AT ACCEPTABLE RANGE. WHEN YOU ACCELERATE PAST 45 MILES PER HOUR, IT IS UNBEARABLE. THE NOISE IS HEARD BY FRONT AND REAR PASSENGERS. PURCHASED THIS CAR IN 12/9/2016 AND HAVE REPORTED IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS.

SUNROOF ON ACCORD EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING. THE EDGES OF THE SHARDS WERE POINTING UPWARDS. DEALER IS SAYING THAT WE WERE HIT BY SOMETHING AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. NOTHING HIT ME WHILE DRIVING, HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION WITH GLASS RAINING DOWN AND THE ROOF AND TRUNK LID ARE VISIBLY SCRATCHED FROM THE GLASS. I'VE HAD THE CAR FOR ONLY 2 WEEKS WHEN THIS OCCURRED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND THE KEY WAS IN THE CONTACT'S POCKET, ALL THE WINDOWS AND SUN ROOF OPENED INADVERTENTLY. THE CONTACT NOTICED THE ISSUE WHEN SHE WALKED OUTSIDE TO THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THERE WAS NO MENTION OF THE AUTOMATIC OPENING OF THE WINDOWS AND SUN ROOF IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED IN THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER DID NOT KNOW HOW TO DISCONNECT THE FEATURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT THIS FEATURE COULD NOT BE DISABLED. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

I AM TRYING TO BUY A CAR, BUT WHEN I TEST DRIVE THEM, I HAVE NECK PAIN BECAUSE THE HEADRESTS REACH SO FAR FORWARD. IF YOU LOOK AT THE SEATS FROM THE SIDE, ONE IS FORCED TO SIT IN A HUNCHED, CURVED SHAPE, WITH ONE'S HEAD PROJECTED FORWARD, WHICH IS HARDLY COMFORTABLE OR HEALTHY. PLEASE NHTSA, CHANGE THE REGULATIONS AND LET US SIT UP STRAIGHT! WHY PROTECT ME FROM UNCERTAIN NECK INJURY BY CAUSING ME CERTAIN PAIN ON A DAILY BASIS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE TIRES MADE A RUBBING NOISE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO TEAM HONDA (LOCATED AT 6363 SIEGEN LN, BATON ROUGE, LA 70809, 855-832-3530) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIRES WERE RUBBING AGAINST THE WHEEL WELL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE ONLY OCCURRED WITH THE ACCORD SPORT MODELS WITH THE 19 INCH WHEELS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09019617. THE CASE WAS CLOSED DUE TO THE MANUFACTURER NOT PROVIDING A REMEDY. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100.

I BOUGHT 2017 HONDA ACCORD AND WITHIN A DAY THERE WERE 2 AIR BAG SIGNS CAME UP. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID WHENEVER YOU COME THIS SIDE BRING THE CAR. THEY CHECKED THE CAR THAT WEEKEND AND FOUND A FAULTY SRS MODULE. THEY REPLACED IT, BUT HOW A NEW CAR HAVE A FAULTY SRS MODULE? HOW QUALITY CONTROL DEPT. STAMPED IT WITHOUT CHECKING IT? WHAT IF SOMETHING WOULD HAVE HAPPENED TO ME?
