    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…

    I have started to experience, now on three separate occasions, grinding of the starter as described in honda tsb 16-002. Apparently this issue has been well documented by other consumers. I feel this is a manufacturing defect that honda continues to deny. I wish to add my complaint to the others in hopes of eventually having a recall issued.

    Manual transmission keeps slipping out of 2nd gear and can't engage in 2nd gear. Was told from transmissions shops that this problem is happening with other 2015 honda accords with low mileage.

    I tried to start my vehicle with the push button and it won't start. Only 62000 miles and the battery tested good. Seems to be the starter or something electronic that is failing. But sometimes it fires right up. I've read starters have been an issue and wanted to report mine as well.

    The starter button only produces a clicking sound when depressed. The engine will not turn over and does not start. The condition is a safety matter as it makes the car unusable and not available for emergencies.

    Difficulty starting. Keyless entry senses key but fails to start when brake is depressed and ignition button is pressed. Happening multiple times/week and becoming more frequent. Often starts after 2-3 attempts. Not resolved by replacing battery, resolving battery sensor recall, or checking fuel pump. Problem seems to be starter and has left me stranded when car does not start.
