The right turn camera that is designed to help eliminate the blind spot is deactivated during high heat.,in phoenix az "high heat" means direct sunlight at over 85 degrees. When i reported the dangerous condition that this outage creates for the drivers of our car they just said, "yeah, it takes a while to cool off." sometimes 15 minutes. Meanwhile i don't have the safety feature i paid for. Can you imagine how…

My sunroof and windows automatically opened up on their own on my 2014 honda accord. This issue could cause an accident should i be driving or cause my car to be vandalized since it is open "to the public."

This is a nightmare. Honda accord 2014.last night my windows and sunroof automatically opened; there have been other random electrical problems, see below. The opening of the windows occurred during a rain storm and my brand new honda is filled with water. The dash is blank and the phob key radio searching light is not blinking; so there was a short that caused this to happen. I will never buy a honda again. If you…

Grinding & spinning noise when i attempt to start the engine. The engine would eventually start after a few attempts. This should be treated as a safety issue as i am afraid electrical circuits could catch fire due to this grinding and the car could fail to start when involuntarily stopped on a busy freeway or in an unsafe parking lot, putting my family at risk. This happens almost every other time i start the…

Engine cranks but fails to start, or starts sluggishly with rough idle after a few seconds of cranking in cold weather. I believe this to be a fuel pump pressure problem. *tr

We smelled fuel when driving to church on a sunday. Thinking it was some leftover fuel splashed, we continued but then the smell became really intense. So we turned around and returned toward home. Upon entering our street, suddenly the vehicle stalled totally out and came to a stop in middle of the road! We rolled it over to the side, it is a neighborhood street; then started car again and went slowly downhill to…

Just purchased my 2014 honda accord lx. I live in a rural area with many small hills. While driving home i noticed the low beam headlights seem to be out of focus, not illuminating objects on the side of the road within 25 feet from the vehicle, nor can you see street signs within that distance. Worse, when going up and down the small hills the roadway visibility changes rapidly depending on the angle of the car,…

Air Bags · Electrical System
When a car has air bags you never know if they work unless you have a crash. With fcw, if you drive safely the alarm should never go off. With our car the fcw alarm rarely sounds but sometimes it will if you were going about 25 mph or less and a car close ahead would be stopping or turning right. Most times our fcw would not sound but sometimes you got false signals and you wondered why. After two dealer visits and…

I had just left the dealership after they cleared a "fcw system failed" message and i entered the interstate. While traveling in the lane adjacent to the far left at a speed of approximately 68 mph, the car violently jerked, the fcw system failed message returned, all emergency icons were illuminated on the dash, and my car lost acceleration in traffic. Despite repeated attempts to accelerate the vehicle, the engine…

I purchased a new honda accord in may 2014 in austin, tx. About one month later, the forward collision warning and lane departure warning systems failed. The service department at the dealer told me the cameras were not able to handle the heat in texas. They suggested a fix of turning the ac on to cool the front window. After several tries that seemed to fix it, but it was only very temporary. These systems are…

2014 honda accord fails to start periodically. The dealership offers no solution to the problem if there is no error code and acts if this is the first time it has happened to the accord. Time for another recall.. This problem is all over the internet.
