    Car does not start even thought battery is fine. Honda is unwilling to help without a diagnostic fee on an issue many 2013-2015 accord models have. Car was parked after running completely fine, when i was trying to start it again it refused to turn on completely. Tire light flashes and avs/engine/battery light are on.

    Starter began grinding and skipping at 55,000 miles. I drive 70 miles round trip each day, so the mileage doesn't represent the actual limited amount of starts i have had with this car. Tsb from honda declares 'improper clearance in starter with pinion gear may cause starting malfunction.' must rotate torque converter bolts one round clockwise and replace starter to fix. But, this won't fix the issue. The improper…

    Vehicle is not starting when i push the ignition. I've been to many forums where similar problems have been reported and many solutions tried but no fix found. People have spent thousands of dollars to fix this issue and still no fix. I've replaced the battery and had the electrical system tested with no issue found. Honda issued tsb 16-002 for v6 accord models but doesn't acknowledge the issue on my v4 model.…

    Vehicle needs new battery every 2 years. Has left me stranded twice. The car has less than 90,000 miles and is only 4 years old. Honda has replaced under recall some type of battery sensor but this has not helped. There are two tsb's that i know of: tsb 16-002 and tsb 17-057. Car gurus website has a blog with a large number of accord owners all in the same boat. People are replacing starters, alternators, ignition…

    Intermittent issues with starting. I hear and see a flicker on the dashboard and lights, however it doesn't start.i plug a jumper pack in and it immediately starts, as if nothing happened. This will have 5-6 times a week after running fine throughout the day. Just happens surprisingly. The starter has been replaced in which the honda dealership says was the issue. There is clearly some other issue happening, maybe…

    In the last year my car has not turned on 3 times. When i push the start button it just clicks and all the warning lights come on. Only after many attempts and waiting more than half hour it finally turns on with all warning lights. In july, we changed the battery. Thinking this might be the problem. It was not. Again today the car would not start and all the warning lights are on. I took it to the dealer who is…

    At ~92,500 miles, this car has suddenly begun in the past week to shut off while accelerating/driving (in motion) on surface streets and freeways. The multifunction screen and/or sound system and/or dash/engine/acceleration will shut off without warning while i am operating the vehicle in traffic anywhere from 15-65 mph. When it has happened, the system has quickly rebooted and allowed me to resume driving. It feels…

    Intermittent problems with starting. Push ignition button a few times before it will start although there is power. Then finally completely failed to start. Battery is good, starter good... Extra voltage by jump starting seems to temporarily fix it. No honda acknowledgement on the issue although it's widely documented by owners.

Both cooler weather and warmer. Car is usually…

    I bought this certified vehicle 8/7/16 from dublin honda. This vehicle has a back up camera as a safety feature that is standard on all models. It has a defective backup camera. Back up camera is completely black when i back up. Honda should be responsable to replace defective cameras as they are not optional
