general problems of the 2014 Honda Accord - part 2

Shutter from transmission, fluid changed, changed again, flushed 3 times , still have problem.

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 to go home from work because it wouldn't start. Since the issue started a couple months ago, it is no much worse. I have to turn the key 15 to 20 times and it finally will start. Sometimes it wont. I have read that many people have issues with these 9th gen Honda Accord starters failing. Mine failed at 42,000 miles? what modern car's starter dies that early?! someone else's starter died at 24,000 miles. Many posts online about the issue. Took the car to the dealership, they wanted $800 to fix the issue. My warranty expired at 36,000 miles. So dangerous, expensive, and frustrating! this problem needs to be fixed by Honda.

Tl- the contact owns a 2014 Honda Accord. The contact stated that it took multiple attempts so get the vehicle to start. The failure occurred periodically. The contact also mentioned that the vehicle door locked by itself. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or independent mechanic for a diagnostic test or repairs. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 39,980. Dr.

Randomly the abs, brake, traction, and steering wheel indicators appeared after starting the car and moving in motion to go to the store. No warnings preceded. After being checked by a mechanic, it was diagnosed as having a bad modulator. The indicator light continues to pop up each trip. Since having the car, the starter was replaced less than a year ago.

Wheel bearing failure, pre-mature - the car made a loud low hum between 35-60 mph. Reading forum's on line, road noise from the michelin tires was described which I assumed the noise to be. The noise seemed to get louder over time so I had the dealer check it out. Both the left and right rear wheel bearings had gone bad on a 3 plus year old car (just out of warranty) with 26,000 miles. Both wheel bearings were replaced and it solved the problem.

My 2014 Accord ex sedan is on recall notice and I am having a final repair on the battery management senor next week. For several weeks I am experiencing an electrical problem intermittently trying to start my car. When I push the start button with my foot on the brake pedal sometimes the care does not start. I have had the car since Nov. 2013 and have only had this problem for the past few weeks. All symbols on the instrument panel light up and quickly go off and I get a notice on the instrument panel "power is on": when I push the button again 1-3 times, the car starts. I have not experienced problems with stalling or cutting off while in motion. My battery is only 2 yr. Old. And it was just checked last month and the charge was ok. Clearly there is a short affecting ignition of the ignition of the engine. The problem I have described has so far only occurred when the car is stationary. I only have 42,000 miles on the car and so this should not be happening and is quite disturbing; it can become a major safety problem. I know that NHTSA has issued Honda electrical system campaigns f/ recall notices for other Honda vehicles with the same problem, but yet for my 2014 sedan. It needs to be included. From reviewing the NHTSA complaint database it is clear this is a known problem by NHTSA and Honda and needs to be dealt with. I am requesting that this complaint be expeditiously investigated and the problem for my car and is recognized as a systemic problem for multiple Honda products for many years and Honda figure out a permanent solution. I am requesting that Honda covers the cost of parts/labor to fix even though I am past the regular warranty period (except I am still within the power train warranty ) this week (November 13 to 11/17) problem occurred 4 times.

The contact owns a 2014 Honda Accord. While driving various speeds, the vehicle failed to accelerate. The vehicle was taken to be repaired, but the dealer could not duplicate the failure. The dealer stated that the failure may have been due to the transmission. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 11,000.

The contact owns a 2014 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the gear shifter failed. The gear locked in park and had to be wiggled numerous times to release to shift into drive. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but a failure code could not be located. A few weeks later, while the vehicle was parked, it rolled out of park and crashed into a parked vehicle. A police report was filed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified. The failure mileage was 34,065.

The VIN was not available.

My 2014 Honda Accord coupe has 33,900+ miles and for the past year, I have had it in to fox Honda in grand rapids four times for the same problem. The problem is, that it stutters often when accelerating and twice, the engine has stalled out and had to be restarted. Fox motors plugs a computer into the car and they tell me that there are no reports of any problems and they can't fix what they can't detect. Two days ago, while driving to the va hospital in battle creek, I pulled out into traffic on anderson rd/street and the car stalled and a fedex semi had to drive onto shoulder and onto a yard to keep from hitting us and if he hadn't, we might have been killed. I took the car into fox motors and they are standing pat, refusing to help us. They did offer to buy the car back from me, but for a terrible price and I asked them what they would do with it and they dealership manager said that they would resell it with confidence and I refused to sell it to them if they were going to resell it with a service certification. How dare them do that! I don't know what to do next.

Since I bought the car I've had problems with the car staying on and running , when I come to turn it on , it shuts off. I have taken it to Honda dealers and they don't see anything wrong with it.

Push-button start/stop type vehicle ("keyless") when vehicle is turned off in drive, the car rolls.

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 had no response and was sitting at idle while I decelerated in the middle of traffic. The vehicle was returned to the dealership where it underwent 3 days of service for what was determined to be a failed accelerator position sensor. The day after picking the car up from the service department, the vehicle was being driven on the highway at approximately 65 mph. The car, without symptoms or warning, again violently jerked, lost acceleration, and displayed the same system failed message. The car has been at the dealership for 8 days and the ecu and main wiring harness are being replaced.

Hesitation (unexpected acceleration) occurs intermittently at low speed. When the car is at a low speed and more power is needed and the accelerator is pressed there is no response initially; accelerator is then pressed more and the car then accelerates much more than was expected, resulting in a jerky, on/off type action. I believe this could cause an accident either when trying to merge into traffic or when trying to accelerate gently and having the car accelerate more than expected (in a parking lot or heavy slow traffic etc).

I bought my 2014 Honda civic exl new in Feb 2014, and ever since new the tpms light has been turning on, even though the vehicle has been updated several times with the latest software at the purchasing dealership. Each time after the vehicle was serviced, the lights came back on. The tpms light comes on at different intervals, at different speeds and over different types of roadways. I then contacted Honda America to resister a case number with them. Honda America instructed me to have my vehicle serviced again by the original dealership, overnight, so their technicians can work in concert with the dealerships technicians. Whatever they did, did not correct the situation as the light came on again within a week. Honda America then had me bring my vehicle to a different dealership, again overnight. Once again the light came on within a week. Honda America now tells me, after 10 months of ownership and numerous attempts to remedy this issue, there is nothing they can do to remedy the malfunctioning tpms system in my vehicle.

Very annoying rumbling/vibration that occurs in the 1700-2000 rpm range when the variable cylinder management engages. The severe imbalance of running on only 3 cylinders transmits a distracting rumbling/roaring vibration into the cockpit of the car. When I originally test drove the car, I did so in stop-in-go traffic and also briefly on the interstate, and did not detect this phenomenon until I had purchased the vehicle. After experiencing this vibration, I wrote a detailed letter to the president of american Honda regarding my unhappiness. A colleague of his, named lorett, contacted me but offered no help. She acknowledged receiving my letter and said that it would go on file. I asked if it were possible to disengage the variable management system, but lorett said that Honda does not recommend that. I asked if american Honda would allow me to swap by new 2014 Honda Accord ex-l v6 for a 4-cylinder ex-l, but lorett said that that would have to be between my dealer and me. I will never purchase a Honda v6 again as long as it has any form of variable cylinder management (vcm). I feel that it is important to go on record regarding this matter. I have been a loyal Honda owner for the last 30+ years and have owned 5 new Honda vehicles over that period of time.
