2016 Honda Accord

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ACCORD. AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND TURNING THE ENGINE OFF, THE BATTERY POWER WOULD DRAIN AND THE VEHICLE COULD NOT BE RESTARTED. AFTER REPLACING THE BATTERY WITH A NEW BATTERY, THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

MY CAR HAS CUT OFF ON ME TWICE AND BOTH TIMES ARE AFTER I WENT THROUGH THE CAR WASH. THERE IS A BATTERY SENSOR RECALL THAT WAS FIXED PREVIOUSLY BUT I THINK THAT IT IS STILL NOT FIXED. THE LAST TIME I HAD TO GET MY CAR TOWED BC IT WOULD NOT START. I HAD TO GET THE CAR JUMPED AND TOOK IT TO GET THE BATTERY TESTED. I WAS TOLD THE BATTERY IS GOOD AND SHOWING 100%.

A YEAR AFTER HAVING THE VEHICLE I HAD TO GET A NEW TRANSMISSION ON 5/2017. AFTER THE THE FIRST REPAIR I STARTED TO HAVE ISSUE WITH MY DASH BOARD LIGHTS AND GEAR INDICATOR WOULD SCRAMBLED ON AND OFF. THREE MONTHS LATER I HAD MY VEHICLE WOULDN'T START AND I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY. 8/19/2018 THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN AGAIN. ITS CURRENTLY AT THE SHOP AND THEY ARE SAYING ITS THE TRANSMISSION. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE BROKE DOWN I WAS TRAVELING ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHIFT GEARS.

THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS FAILED AFTER THE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WAS FLICKERING AND HOT, THIS ISSUE STARTED IN THE PASSENGER SIDE AND NOW BOTH DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE OUT. I CONTACTED HONDA ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THEY DO NOT HAVE A CURRENT RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE AND TO CONTACT THE DEALER. THE DEALER WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I BOUGHT THIS CAR BECAUSE THE DAY TIME RUNNING LIGHT SAFETY FEATURE. I DID A RESEARCH OF THIS PROBLEM AND IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THIS VEHICLE. I AM CONCERN THAT THIS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM CAN CAUSE A FIRE.
