Experiencing intermittent starting issues. Car usually takes multiple attempts to start. Usually on around the third or fourth attempt it starts, but has taken up to 10-12 attempts or more to start. Keyed ignition, not push button. When it fails to start, engine doesn't crank at all, there is just one single �click� sound. Took it to the Honda dealer, they said it's most likely a bad starter and quoted around $700 to replace the starter. The car only has 35k miles, which seems very low miles to have starter issues. After looking at all the other complaints about this issue, I believe there should be a recall to address this, as this is clearly a systemic problem. My teenage daughter and wife both drive this car, and I'm very concerned about this issue causing them to be stranded somewhere. That's definitely a huge safety issue. It also doesn't seem fair for me to have to pay $700 to repair an issue that is clearly due to a faulty part, just to a have a car that starts when it's supposed to. All those people who have paid to have the starter issues fixed should be reimbursed by Honda too.
There was a battery electrical sensor recalled in which I have already replaced but now the mechanic is saying there is an electrical issue with the starter sensor delays. My car has 75k and takes 6 or so times to start when pushing the start button. There appears to be a large community of 2013-2014 Honda Accord owners experiencing the same thing and needing to be replaced every 20k thereafter. Please issue a recall. With having a baby in the car, I cannot afford to become stranded in the heat, not to mention the high expense this costs with no guarantee it will not need to be fixed again after 20k miles. Long time Honda owner who does not want to switch brands but needs safety and integrity to be top priority from a car manufacturer.
Vehicle has intermittent staring issues. Battery, starter and alternator all test good and no codes appear in vehicles computer. Vehicle will start and then the next time won�t. Issue first appeared within a year of ownership, and battery was replaced then and still an issue. The vehicle will sometimes sit over night or while out running errands.
Problem starting engine. Some times it would start without a problem. Other times it would simply click and not start. After trying to start multiple times, it usually would finally start. Replaced the starter. No difference. Tested the original starter and it tested good. Put the original starter back in the vehicle. Was told by the parts store that there had been multiple problems just like this.
Push button start not working. Starter is dying. Takes three to four push button starts to start car. Less than 50,000 miles on the car.
I purchase this vehicle from a 3rd party. Before buying it, the buyer replaced the starter the same day I purchase the car based on his mechanic recommendation. He explain to me that he had problems starting the car when its in park, sometime it worked the first time, but sometime it had to push the bottom up to 5 times and push the brake really hard. About 3 weeks later, the same thing happen to me, the car will not start, it makes a grinding sound, then start doing it more often so I took it to my mechanic and he recommended call the buyer and ask his mechanic to replace it again and see if it will fix the problem. After the second replacement 2 weeks later it did it again, and it been doing it for the last 2 months since I purchase the car. It seems like this is not the "starter" it has to be another electrical problem, and based on the complaints, it seems like is the same problem, but no solution. Please recall this problem before the car don't start at all.
Starter failure. Sometimes the car would start on initial try. Other times the car would not start on the initial try. It would just click. I never knew when it would happen.
A few weeks ago, our 2014 Honda Accord lx, would not consistently start. I took it to two different auto-shops, including the dealership. The first auto shop could not figure out what was wrong. They said they started the car ~100 times and the car started every time. I then took the car to a dealership. The dealership said it was the starter. I replaced the starter and the car started up fine. A couple of days after fixing the car, the car did not start. The battery was tested and is okay. Our car was towed to a trusted mechanic. The mechanic said that the starter was fine and that he suspects the original did not need replacement. He said there's some sort of electrical issue, but could not figure out exactly where the issue is. He said it must be somewhere between the ignition and starter. Our leaving the car with him so that he can have other technicians inspect it.
Starter is failing from time to time. When using push-button start, sometimes the starter makes a strong grinding noise and does not start the vehicle. It will sometimes do this for one, two, or three attempts in a row. Eventually, the starter will work. I'm afraid the starter will eventually fail completely. Car has less than 75,000 miles.
Starter system failed to start the engine. It turned on electrical but would not start the car. The lights turned on and there was one click but nothing else despite repeated attempts to start the car. Left me stranded.
Headlights keep blowing and car will not start guessing it's the starter. I think the wires keep blowing the lights out.
Honda Accord 2014 fails to start after multiple tries, then works out of the blue. I am worried it will leave me stranded one if these days. My car is only 33k miles. Honda needs to do a recall. We should all file a petition against Honda starter issues. I see multiple similar complaints.
About two months ago my 2014 Honda Accord would not start on the first try. My car was stationary, and I would need to press the push button start several times before it started. Lundgren Honda in auburn massachusetts said I needed a new starter. I did not expect a starter to fail on a car with 43k miles, and I've read online that this is a known issue especially with the 2013 and 2014 Accords. I paid for the new starter since I did not want to be stranded if the car wouldn't start. I filed a complaint with Honda north America but they said the starter is not an issue and there is no need for a recall. I'm concerned that there have been so many complaints about the Honda starters without a recall and it poses a safety risk if people are stranded by a part that fails prematurely. Although I have a new starter I fear it may fail like the first one did. I've attached photos of the invoice from the Honda dealership explaining the issue. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Vehicle starts sporadically. Vehicle has key ignition. Only one click when turning key. Electrical system turns on ie. Lights, radio etc. It will start sometimes after a few turns of the key. Sometimes not at all. Battery tested fine, alternator system tested fine, ignition switch is fine, fuses are fine. Faulty starter. Emergency service provided by insurance company attempted to jump vehicle would not start. Needed to be towed. Started after 5 or 6 attempts following day. Now it takes numerous attempts every time. Faulty starter numerous complaints. Honda needs to recall.
Since Nov. 2018 I have the starter problem. With ignition key in either the lights come up - no turning, or is grinds and dies (garage). I replaced the battery thinking it is the battery problem (voltage ~ 12. 2 v). Mileage about 52k. With new battery I experienced this problem 2-3 times again (parking lot). Last time: may 2019 - no lights, the started does not turn. Battery was 13. 4 v. Mileage 58k.
Please note that there was a recall for the 2013 Honda Accord for similar issues. The vehicle will at times not start and only make a grinding noise when depressing the start button, this still occurring after changing the battery and starter twice in addition to the fob battery. I speculate that the braking system may contribute to this issue as sometimes the car will start after pumping/pressing the brake pedal a few times or just holding it after initial attempt to start the car (very frustrating). New issue involves the car starting while only pressing the brake and moving the gear shifter (dangerous as a kid can start the vehicle without pressing the start button). Have reported the issue to Honda (local/California main) and spoke to a Honda representative yesterday (5/7/2019) to no avail. Please issues a recall for these cars having this issue before someone gets hurt, or worse, looses their lives. This has been going on for years and is almost on a daily basis, last even was today.
When pushing the start button, sometimes the car would start, and sometimes it wouldn't. When it would not start, I would have to try it 3 to 5 times to get it to start. My 2014 Honda has 71k miles and the starter has gone out. Cost to replace my starter was $537. 43. My friend, with an idential vehicle, also had her starter go out at 60k miles (same issue). The starter should not be going bad this soon on a "quality" vehicle. A recall on the starter should be issued.
My 2014 Honda Accord has been having intermittent issues with the push-button start for several months. I took it to the dealership who replaced the battery and things worked a little better for a couple of weeks, but it is back to not starting intermittently when I hold down the brake and push the starter button.
Issue started March 29th approx. 2014 Honda Accord lx with 68,000 miles 1 owner (me). Tried turning on car and just clicked. Finally came on after 5 attempts. Took to mechanic and quoted me $600 for starter. Did not have the money so I kept having issue until it just stopped turning on. Had my starter replaced.
Intermittent starter problem with separate key fobs some times starts fine others it doesn't.
Our 2014 Honda Accord lx has been regularly experiencing starter issues. When starting the car from "park," the car will click as though there is an electrical issue. Battery and alternator have checked out. The car only has 65,000 miles on it, and at the five year mark, we should not be having starter issues. Similar complaints have been shared online in forums, videos, etc. The issue is now becoming more frequent and more serious. Honda needs to issue a recall like they did for the 2013 Accord starters!.
Often takes multiple times to start the car. Sometimes it starts right up, other times it takes 2,3,4,5. . . 10 times to start, and sometimes it can take up to 20 minutes to get it started. Once it's started, the car runs very well. The problem is becoming more frequent. When you press the ignition button, sometimes it makes a clicking sound, sometimes it makes no sound. All the auxiliary power comes on but the engine doesn't turn over. We have found many many complaints online detailing the same problem with the 2014 Accord. Mine has just over 67,000 miles on it - way too early for a starter to be failing. This problem has been happening for about 6 months -- but when it started, it would only take 2 or 3 tries to start the car. We replaced the battery and it seemed to fix it for about a month, but then it came back. After much research, we believe it is a defective starter. The Honda dealership wants $590 to replace the starter. This is clearly a flaw in manufacturing. Honda needs to issue a recall.
When trying to start the car, it won't turn on, like the battery is dead or I need a new starter. This has been happening for about 3 months everyday. Before it was every once in awhile.
My 2014 Honda Accord sport (72,000 miles) has intermittent starting issues. When attempting to start car, there will be no sounds or clicks, but all of the lights engage as if the better is fully charged. Then after 3-4 attempts the engine will turn over and start as if nothing was wrong at all. My local Honda dealership seems to think this is a starter issue, but this does not seem like a normal starter problem as it is very intermittent and makes not clicking sound. Have had issue for about 2 months now.
For my 2014 Honda Accord purchased brand new in 2014, I started having starter issues after about 52k miles. I was surprised because generally a starter is supposed to be a long lasting part. Honda dealer did not cover it stating its past cars warranty. I did contact Honda and they are also saying car is out of warranty. They mentioned something about case may be reviewed but that mostly it's not covered. I also checked online and a lot of other Accord owners also had similar issues and there was a class action lawsuit in this regard.
Our car has 32,000 miles on it and the starter went out and had to be replaced. According the internet that iseems to be a problem that occurs quiet often. It cost around $500. 00 to fix it and it should never have happened at that low a mileage. With this problem happening so often it seems to be a problem with Hondas. The car was in the garage when it happened but we had taken it to the dearlership 2 times telling them the indicator lights said starter problem but they said they can't do anything until it stops. That was very upsetting because it could have happened anywhere. I am 83 years old and would have been in trouble if it happened away from home, we had to pay to have it towed to the dealership, they were also very rude to us because we are old saying do you know you must press the brake in to start it? then saying maybe you should press harder. That response would never have been given to a middle age gentleman.
Push button start intermittently does not start car -- lights come on but wont start think it may be part of the probelms stated onder TSB 16002 apparently a defect in the design of the starter system n--- however Honda will not pay if out of warranty at 45000 miles should not happen Honda needs to man up.
Starter motor would not start vehicle after numerous times. Problem kept getting worst until it took about 10-12 attempts beore it would start. Dealer a one time good faith replacement and charged a $106. 00 fee. Problem has been solved for now. Car had about 53k miles.
I took my car to Honda dealership 2 weeks ago. They reprogram a key and replace a recall sensor, so I was told. They also did a system update. Since then I have had multiple issue with my car. 1st was a charging system warning, which I thought was my alternator or battery, but they said was nothing. Three days ago I got into my car to start it and it would not start stated " fcw system failed" after 3 attempts its started but acceleration would not respond. Rmp stayed below 2000 even with my foot deep on the gas pedal. I turn the car off and let it sit for for 20 mins , then it accelerator came back. But fwc and all service lights stayed on. Wake up the next day all lights went away like nothing had happened. Today I was driving home and the acceleration occur again. While on the high way it would not respond. Made it home safe. As I was about to get in my car again it would not start. Car has power but is not starting. At one point of trying to start my mph gaged was flicking, even after I release the start button. I've read many reports by customers having the same issue with the fwc fail as well as the starter system. Base on my research it seems that only Honda Accord 2014 having this issue. Honda can't seem to find the source of the problem and this is bad. Whatever the cause may be Honda needs to find a solution to this. I was left stranded with no help and no one to call on. Because one moment my car was driving like the 2014 car it is and next it was not.
I only problem I have for this 2014 Honda Accord lx vehicle is the starting issue. Sometimes I cannot start the car and it strands me on the roadside or parking lot several times. I went to the Honda dealer and they checked that there's nothing wrong. I also went to other auto repair stores several times. And some of them said it's the starter's problem; others said it's alternator or battery's problem. The problem still exists. And when the weather becomes cold, the car cannot be started more frequently than warm days. This problem causes me big troubles because I have to pay a lot to jump start it. And it left me on the road which is unsafe. The car is only 4 years old and only 55000 miles on the odometer. There are so many similar cases with other Honda owner on the internet. I seriously think that Honda should take care of the problem and make a safety recall to fix the problem.
Tl-the contact owns a 2014 Honda Accord lx. The contact stated the starter malfunctioned and the vehicle stalled. The contact opened the hood and the engine started smoking so he disconnected the battery.

The failure mileage was unknown. Tf.
After 4 yrs and 60k miles this car has had a starter replaced by the dealer and I've gotthen two new batteries. Need to jump start every now and then even after the car has been turned off only while stopping for a couple off minutes. Can't rely on this car to be on time to pick up kids from school or get to work.
Car will not start-faulty igniton switch. I started having starter problems for the past 2 weeks. Last week it didn't start at all .
I purchased Honda Accord 2014 as used and have just 42k miles on it now. It started giving starting troubles since past 2 weeks. Last week it didn't start at all . Finally it started once & took the car to dealership & I was told that starter has gone bad. Costed $800 to replace it.
Starter button has gone bad at 40k miles. Battery is new, key fob battery is new, still car won't start at least 3-4 times a week. After several tries, it finally starts. Very dangerous to be stranded somewhere.
