Other Fuel System Tank Assembly Problems of Honda Accord

The hose on the gas tank has a hairline crack in it. The only way to repaint is to change the whole gas tank which is $1200. The fuel tank is on backorder so obviously others have had issues with it. ## #vpic# 1 - check digit (9th position) does not calculate properly; 3 - VIN corrected, error in one position (assuming check digit is correct); 14 - unable to provide information for all the characters in the VIN. #vpic#.

While trying to diagnose the check engine light my mechanic noticed that the fuel tank has a crack at the top of the tank which leaks gasoline when filled up. This is the same issue that has been reported and recalled for some other 2013 Accords but not ours. Honda needs to issue a recall for any vehicle that this is happening to. But as it currently stands they are not.

When we fill gas to the full tank, it is smelling.

My fuel gauge/range has become inaccurate. I only drive my car Monday-Friday, the same route, same miles, same conditions. At the end of the week, I normally have less than a quarter of a tank left, with approx 110-120 mile range. Recently, it is showing I have remaining range of 260, but it is still requiring 12+ gallons to fill. My mpg per trip/overall has not changed. Took to dealer, they "claim" they can't find anything, I suspect it's because I have extended warranty with -0- deductible. They also asked me to bring it in on a full tank instead of 1/2 tank or less where I notice the problem begins. I get an average mpg each trip of 32. 5 mpg, I have a 15 gallon tank, there is no way on the last 3 gallons of gas I would get 86. 66 mpg. That is well beyond mfg specs.

Periodically my car wouldn't start and I would get a grinding sound from the starter early in the morning when it's oarked in my drive way. Also while on the highway driving after putting a full tank of gas in my car I would sometimes get a bogging down issue as if I don't have enough gas or as if the motor isn't getting enough gas.

Mouse nest discovered in engine after malfunction light came on. Mouse chewed through tubes to gas tank resulting in needing a whole new gas tank. Light first came on after being parked in my driveway.

Rodent's chewed a hole in the evap line coming off the fuel tank. 2552 miles on the car. It is my understanding that the corrugated evap line has a soy based coating. Because this line is built into the fuel tank the whole fuel tank needs to be replaced. Estimated cost is $1552, not covered under the manufacture's warranty. Very worried a similar problem will happen with the replacement part and I'll be looking at multiple replacements. Asking the repair shop to treat the new part with Honda's rodent deterrent tape part # 4019-2317, before reinstalling.

One morning while driving my daughter to daycare I noticed the smell of gasoline. I took my car to the mechanic and he diagnosed the issue as a faulty high pressure fuel line (the line from the gas tank to the front of the car). Upon receiving the replacement part the mechanic noted that the new fuel line has an additional insulator that prevents this exact issue. I've seen this reported elsewhere as "possible rodent damage" but this is clearly an issue Honda is aware of but not addressing via a recall.

Yellow sac spider blocking venting of fuel tank yellow sac spider built nest in evap system causing blockage and triggering a dtc code p2422 (evap cannister vent shut valve close malfunction). This problem has been an issue for 2008 and 2009 Honda Accords and a technical service bulletin 08-087 had been issued to dealers. Other car manufacturers, notably Mazda and Toyota, issued recalls to deal with yellow sac spider problems. Honda treated it as a warranty issue and might make a partial payment for out of warranty claims. The fix is to install a spring in the valve to prevent spider nests. A blocked vent line can cause excessive pressure in the gas tank leading to leakages or worse. Unless a spring is installed, any Honda Accord model years 2008 and 2009 can have this problem. Yellow sac spiders are found in 49 states, canada and mexico.

I have Honda Accord white ex-l since 11/10/2012 with current mileage of 16,300. 1. Recently, I went to my mechanic to have air pressure checked on my car, since I was going for a long trip. While, air pressure was being checked, I left the car on in accessory mode for about 3 minutes. When I went on to turn the car on, it wouldn't turn on. Dash board lights, flickered at every attempt, when I tried turning on the car. My mechanic checked the battery, he said, battery is dead. I had the battery replaced. Once battery was replaced, mechanic checked alternator. He stated, alternator is not working properly. I told him, I will take the car to Honda dealer. This reminded me, that same thing happened on 7/4/2014, where I had left the hazard lights on and radio on at the same time in power mode for about 5 minutes. I called Honda care, 1st driver, couldn't jump start my car. 2nd driver came, and he was able to jump start my car. He stated battery was fine at that time. However, I just realized, my driver side window was taking lot longer to open and close than it should. With new battery, I will bring car to dealer to have the car checked. Also, since above instances, I turn off my headlights from auto mode, and also interior lights from dimming or turning off automatically to save battery from draining. 2. Since I bought the car in November 2013, I have noticed that, I can hear fuel moving in the fuel tank. In my old 2000 Honda Accord, I never heard such a thing. 3. Since 2012, I have gotten alignment done 3 times, but I still feel the vibration through out my car, and car feels like wobbling in the front. 4. Not happy with mpg. In city, I get 9 to 11 mpg. Highway, it is just about 32 to 35 mpg as advertised and tested. 5. Sometimes, when putting on the driver side seat belt, it gets stuck. I have to retract it and than I am able to secure it in seat belt clip.

No accident. Smell of fuel leak at all times but not able to determine source of leak. Especially noticeable after fuel is added to tank.

Engine surged and vehicle sped up, on it's own, when pulling into a parking lot. Vehicle collided with boulders and railroad ties causing damage to the front, rear, undercarriage, and ruptured the fuel tank. When the vehicle came to rest, people were yelling for the occupents to "get out" of the vehicle, because fuel was gushing all over the ground. Driver is 84 and passenger is 82. Both sustained injuries to their spines and driver is still in the hospital as of 3/8/2015. Needless to say, this could have been much worse.

Rodent damage to gas line, emission system, gas tank, and numerous other parts in an actively driven car (not stored). Leading to major gas leak (half a tank of gas in a duration of a standstill at red light) that placed drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and bystanders' life at risk. Would've lead to catastrophic ending if exhaust was hot. Gas spilled over stretch of 2 blocks, majority concentrating at intersection between heath and main st. Buffalo NY, which required the fire department to clean up. 911 was contacted for patches of flammable gasoline, which could have been ignited for numerous reasons leading to fatality. Reason for filing compliant. Vehicle which this happened to was a brand new 2014 Honda Accord purchased in June 2014. Repairs denied to be covered under warranty by Honda dealership and America Honda. Stating accident events like this is not covered, and is not a mechanical defect. Two conservative repair required, still not fixed. Dysfunctional car for a period of 6 days and counting. For rodent damage to occur in a brand new, actively driven car is indicative of obvious flaws in the design itself. 1. The machinery was exposed and unprotected. 2. The quality of built material was substandard for it to be damaged in a overnight situation by some "rodent" no larger than those that can fit in, and maneuver, within a confined space (seriously, I do not believe a rodent would randomly choose my car on the street to squeeze into and just bit a wire (numerous wires) without purposes of building a news or for food). 3. Disproportion between the price paid for the car and the quality of service which followed it.

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 the house; car stalled again just outside our house, we could not get it into driveway, very strong fuel smell; we pushed it to get it parked on the street. Tried again later that day to start the car but it wouldn't start, very strong fuel smell and gasoline leaking onto the street. Car towed to Honda dealer next day; after technicians examined the car they concluded "rodent damage" to the fuel line leading to the fuel tank. They would not cover any of the damage as it "wasn't manufacturer defect. " also called national Honda customer service and opened a case; but they would not agree either to cover anything. We were very lucky we weren't on a highway or interstate when this suddenly stalled out, we could have been rear ended as the car suddenly stopped with no warning! the fuel line last portion leading into the tank is made of rubber, it is not metal or hard plastic like the rest of the line and therefore subject to something sharp puncturing it--which is a defective design in our view. The new part they put on is same as the old, the same thing could happen again. There is no shield under the fuel tank area to keep things from underneath getting up in there. Honda should at least cover the cost of the repair (we paid $684. 09), car is almost brand new. And we believe this is a safety hazard, car can shut off with no warning. Thank you for your help.

Check engine light is on and has to do with the emission system. Mechanic says there is a pin hole in the hose to the gas tank causing this. This is the same issue I had will my 1984 Honda Accord and it was covered under a recall. Has there been or can there be a recall on this 2000 model as well? thanks!.

Ever since I bought my car I've noticed that my oil burns up a lot faster than other cars. When I get an oil change done it only takes less than 2 months for the oil in the tank to burn away quickly. I use the recommended 5w 20. I'm having to top off the tank more often and spend more money on oil consumption.

Check engine light came on sporadically and then there was a slight gas smell. Mechanic discovered a small hole at the top of the gas tank.
