2016 Honda Accord

I LEASED A NEW 2016 ACCORD SPORT IN MARCH 2016. I JUST RECENTLY PURCHASED IT OUT OF THE 3 YEAR LEASE. IN THE 2ND YEAR OF LEASE (12/08/2017) I WAS AT THE GAS STATION WITH THE CAR SHUT OFF, TRIED TO START IT AND IT WOULDN'T START. BATTERY WASN'T WORKING. (ORIGINAL HONDA BATTERY STILL IN IT). THE CAR WAS AT 80K MILES. TRIED TO JUMP START AND IT WOULDN'T START. CALLED TO HAVE IT TOWED HOME, TOW DRIVER TESTED THE BATTERY AND JUMPED IT AND IT STARTED BUT WAS HAVING ISSUES SO HE SAID TO GET IT HOME. I REPLACED THE BATTERY IMMEDIATELY THAT NIGHT. (NEW STORE BOUGHT BATTERY) NO ISSUES UNTIL NOW (APRIL 2019). WAS DRIVING LAST NIGHT IN THE RAIN AND ALL 4 OF MY DASH LIGHTS CAME ON AT THE SAME TIME (ANTI-LOCK BREAK-ABS, TIRE PRESSURE-TPMS, TRACTION CONTROL, ELECTRIC POWER STEERING-EPS). I HAVE ASSOCIATED THIS ISSUE WITH SEVERAL DEALERS AND IT HAS BEEN LINKED TO THE BATTERY CAUSING THESE SENSORS TO TRIP AS THEY ARE NOT GETTING ENOUGH POWER. HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS FOR THIS SAME ISSUE! ONCE THE BATTERY IS REPLACED, THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY. I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR NOW FOR 3 YEARS EXACTLY AND THIS WILL BE THE 3RD BATTERY I HAVE HAD TO PUT IN THIS CAR, BUT THIS VIN IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE BATTERY RECALL? THE BATTERY RECALL (17V418000) IS FOR WATER GETTING INTO THE BATTERY CASE AND CAUSING SHORTS AND POSSIBILITIES FOR ELECTRICAL FIRES. SOMETHING ON THIS VIN MODEL IS HAVING SEVERE BATTERY ISSUES, POSSIBLY RELATED TO THE WATER WITH LAST NIGHTS INCIDENT, BUT 3 BATTERIES IN 3 YEARS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THIS IS A $27,000 VEHICLE. ALL BATTERY ISSUES NEED TO BE REVIEWED FOR RECALL ISSUES.

2016 ACCORD SPORT HAD BOTH LED LIGHT STRIPS GO OUT. I HAVE WITNESSED THIS ON ALMOST EVERY ONE OF THAT YEARS MODEL. I HAVE ALSO SEEN HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND SOME WERE EVEN DURING LEASE MILEAGE! THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS THAT THESE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE NOT UNDER RECALL. HONDA WILL NOT KEEP THAT CONTINUED CUSTOMER LOYALTY AND RETURN FROM CUSTOMERS WITH ISSUES LIKE THIS. I LEASED THIS VEHICLE AT A PURCHASE COST OF $27,000! IT IS ALMOST $1000 EACH TO REPLACE THESE STRIPS AS THE ENTIRE LIGHT HOUSING ASSEMBLY HAS TO BE REPLACED TO FIX JUST THIS PART OF THE LIGHTS? THIS IS A HUGE DESIGN FLAW ON HONDA'S PART! AND TO EXPECT YOUR CUSTOMERS TO FOOT THE BILL FOR THESE REPAIRS IS UNACCEPTABLE. THIS IS A MANUFACTURERS DESIGN FLAW BECAUSE THESE LIGHTS DO NOT HAVE THE OPTION OF BEING TURNED OFF WITH THE REGULAR LIGHTS. THESE ARE FORCED TO RUN NONSTOP FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. HONDA'S DESIGN ENGINEERS HAVE CREATED AN EXPENSIVE FLAW THAT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER RECALL!!! WE ARE ALL RECONSIDERING WHETHER THAT HONDA QUALITY IS LIVING UP TO ITS NAME ANYMORE. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED AS I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE OUT OF LEASE (3 YEARS LATER) AND STILL HAVE A $26K VEHICLE WITH NO WORKING DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS BECAUSE I REFUSE TO SINK $2K IN REPLACING A MANUFACTURERS DESIGN FLAW. THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT ON ALL ACCOUNTS AND REPLACED BY HONDA. HOW MANY CUSTOMERS WILL CONTINUE TO BE RETURNING CUSTOMERS IF THEY HAVE TO REPLACE $2K IN LIGHTS EVERY COUPLE THOUSAND MILES? SPEND $2 K THEN TURN AROUND AND DO IT MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE?? NO THANKS. MINE WENT OUT DURING YEAR 2 (2017). HONDA NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE ASAP. VERY UNHAPPY THAT THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL YET.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S BATTERY FAILED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V418000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,639. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

INTERMITTENTLY STARTS. WILL ONLY START WHEN USING PUSH START 75% OF THE TIME. OTHER 25% THERE IS A WINDING AND GRINDING SOUND. MUST REPEAT PUSH START 5 TO 6 TIMES BEFORE IGNITION WILL FIRE. THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY WHILE VEHICLE IS NOT IN MOTION. STARTER WILL NOT FIRE THE ENGINE AND MAY BE SHORTING OUT OR IS HUNG UP OR MISS FIRING. SMELLS OF HEATED PLASTIC NOTED DURING AND AFTER MISS FIRE.

I HAVE A 2016 HONDA ACCORD AND THE DRL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE HAVE BURNED OUT. I HAVE BEEN DOING RESEARCH ONLINE AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND THE 2017. MY CAR IS APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. TO MAKE MATTERS WORST, THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY 600.
