The vehicle does not always start when you pressed the start button and only clicks. This can be dangerous if the car stalls in a busy intersection or rail road crossing and the vehicle cannot be started. To start the vehicle (keyless w/fob), you have to press the brake and press the start button. It appears that the brake pedal pressure and the starting of the car may be part of the issue as we have noticed that…

On some occasions the keyless start button does not activate the starter. It may take several attempts to work or won't at all. Sometimes i leave for a time and when i try again it works normally. I've had many cars and this issue is deffinetly a manufacturer defect. Honda dealer replaced starter under warranty and indicated that they knew it was an issue. I think it is a safety issue. I needed to pick up my wife at…

I only have 29,600+ miles on my 2014 honda accord with trouble starting car engine. Sometimes it takes 2 to 3 times before engine starts. I brought to my honda dealer and they told me that i am looking at a $700+ bill to replace the defective starter. I see that other owners have the same problem!

The steering wheel froze up on me at start up. I turned it off and it worked correctly until the next time. After the third time i read about similar problems others were having and knew that it could freeze up while i was driving so i took it to my dealer march 19 2018. Honda doesn't want to talk to me about it. I will fix it and hope for a recall. It will cost me at least $700. *tr

The ignition switch took forever to start engine. I had to have the starter changed and paid vandergriff honda dealer $600+. I believe it has something to do with the battery sensor that affects also the alternator.

Vehicle will not start at times and there is a clicking sound. In the beginning, it happened maybe twice a month and it would start after a few seconds. It has gotten worse and it's an everyday occurrence, several times a day. One day it would not start at all. I left it for approximately an hour and when i later tried to start it, it started with no hesitation. It is not the battery, because i replaced the battery…

I noticed when my car is running(stationary) with heat on and headlights on after couple of minutes it makes a click noice which affects the lights(headlights). When car is moving (in motion) all of a sudden lights become super dim as if they are barely any lights. Some days lights work as if they are brand new and covers the entire street.
