My alternator reading is at 12.0, with the car still being this recent, the price of a new alternator is very expensive. I was hoping maybe to see if honda actually has a recall on this model.

Starter button has gone bad at 40k miles. Battery is new, key fob battery is new, still car won't start at least 3-4 times a week. After several tries, it finally starts. Very dangerous to be stranded somewhere.

When you press the start button, it just clicks. After a few tries, it would start. The problem is a faulty starter (not the button, key, or battery). After only 60k miles? Honda charged $900 to replace it. Called honda america and they refused to reimburse me. I am disappointed that honda does not stand by its products any more. They used to be dependable cars.

On 24 august 2018, several lights came on in the dash, to include the the fcw, ldw, brakes and power steering. I took the vehicle to honda and was told that my vsa modulator may need to be replaced. They reset it and told me that if the lights come back on, i would definitely need to get it replaced. Needless to say, the lights came back on 2 hours later. I called the dealership and was told they had to order the…

When i try to start my car, most of the time it won't start. It just clicks. I have to try multiple times and eventually it will start. This is a common problem that honda should fix. And it is a safety issue because, if it is dark out and your car won't start, then you are a target for a criminal. I am losing my faith in the reliability of honda's.

My 2014 honda accord has 42,000 miles. Starting a couple months ago, the car would not start randomly. (battery, alternator tested good. No issues with them) i drive a manual transmission, if the car stalls in traffic or on a hill i wouldn't be able to start the car back up. This is extremely dangerous! I have been stranded places because the car won't start. One time it was 100 degrees outside and i couldn't leave…

Starting from last month, the car sometimes cannot be started when i turned the key to start the car. There was no sound. The engine could not be started. In the beginning, it happened about 1-2 times per week. And it could be started after 4-5 trials. Now it happens almost every day. Sometimes i tried 10 min but it still does not work. The machinist examined the vehicle and said that the battery was good. The honda…

The vehicle made a loud grinding noise and failed to start at 50k miles on the odometer. Dealer stated that the starter needed to be replaced at a cost of over $900. Dealer refused to provide assistance with expense despite low mileage and clearly premature problem with this vehicle.

Last yes when the battery was 3 years old and it completely died on me, had to buy a new one. I didn't might since it was $150. A few month (august 2018) ago my car would not start from the first time i push the start bottom and i would have to push it again for it to start. This happened about once to twice a week. But over the last month (november 2018) this issue really increased. Started to happen more often and…

My accord is 4 years old and has about 34,000 miles on it. My starter just began failing (3 months after warranty expired). I was having intermittent starting failure for approximately 2 weeks. I would turn the key and the engine wouldn't do anything, most times i would immediately try again and it would turn on fine. One time it took about 5 tries to get it to turn. After speaking with my mechanic and paying for a…

Tried to start my 2014 honda accord that has had well maintained maintenance on it and it won't start. Everything works but the car won't start. This is the 4th time this week it has happened and then the car just starts. Now it's not starting. I did my research and realize this is an issue with the 2014 accord. Honda needs to be responsible and fix this immediately. Car is too new with only 55k miles, i own a 2001…

Starter went bad and was intermittent. The solenoid would not work at times. Also engine would turn over slowly like it had a bad battery.

Car would not start but would just click and electricity would turn on. Problem persisted and got worse and worse. Would require 2, then 3 up to 6 tries to start the engine. Replaced battery and problem still persisted and got worse. Went to mechanic and was told starter was faulty, had to pay for a full starter replacement at less than 45,000 miles.

I have a 2014 honda accord with 30,000 miles and has a bad starter. For the past 8 months , the starter button had to be pushed several tines to start engine. Now it will not start at all. Honda has made a starter that will fail premature because the solenoid is built inside the starter and carbon from the brushes destroy solenoid contacts.

Starter grinds or spins at startup. The problem is intermittent at first but gets worse over time untill the car won't start at all leaving you stranded. Honda released a service bulletin 16-002 that covers the problem and the fix for it.

Problem: seems to be with ignition. While car is stationary, the vehicle fails at the initial turn of the key for ignition. Failure of ignition may happen 2-3 times before car will run. Not only has this now happened more than half a dozen times, but we are also seeing larger number of tries before the vehicle will start. (example: first several occurrences the car would start after 1-2 tries. Now it is more common…
