2013 honda accord sport is starting to have starting problems, sometimes engine doesn't turn over when first turning the key. And from what i have read on this site it sounds like it is progressively going to get to the point of having to replace the starter, not happy i was hoping on having a reliable car.

My family and i were stranded due to our 2013 honda accord not starting. We just came out of the movies and the car was stationary in the parking lot. I turned the key and it would just click. I had to pay for towing and over $800 to have the starter replaced at the honda dealer. It would have been more, but i called another dealer and they price matched the starter. I drive a lot of mile to work so i have over 60k…

Check engine light keeps going on since the car hit exactly 60,000 miles. Code said it is related to the fuel system. Changed the sensor; light was off and now back on. Continuously occurs while driving the vehicle on the highway or city streets. All gauges are fine and car is maintaining gas mileage. Could it be that the o-ring and fuel tank are only slightly better than that on the original 2013 honda accords…

I got in my car in the morning in the garage, stepped on the brake to start the engine and it wouldn't start but the car power was on. I ended up having to call aaa to tow the car to honda. Aaa was able to jump the car and i drove it to san leandro honda. They couldn't find anything wrong with the car. I looked on line and saw you tube videos with other people who had honda's and the same thing happened to them.
