2017 Honda Accord

BACK UP CAMERA STOPPED WORKING. IT ONLY DISPLAYS ORANGE LINES. WHEN TRYING TO ADJUST THE IMAGE THE SCREEN DISPLAYS STATIC LIKE LINES AND ALSO THE LIGHTS ON DISPLAY SCREEN GOES DIM. UNABLE TO GET CAMERA TO WORK. OWN CAR ONE YEAR WITH A LITTLE OVER 17,000 MILES AT TIME I PURCHASED. IT ONLY HAS 29,000 MILES ON IT NOW. NOT HAVING BACK UP CAMERA WORKING CAN CAUSE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS.

MY CAR WAS PARKED, AND I SWITCHED TO THE R GEAR TO BACK OUT, BUT MY REAR CAMERA WOULD NOT WORK. MY SCREEN WAS ALL BLACK BUT MY YELLOW PARKING GUIDELINES WERE STILL VISIBLE. I TRIED TO CHANGE THE CAMERA VIEW TO SEE IF THAT WOULD HELP. MY SCREEN SHOWED SOME STATIC. I SWITCHED BACK TO MY ORIGINAL CAMERA VIEW AND THE STATIC STOPPED, BUT MY SCREEN IS STILL BLACK ON REAR CAMERA MODE. I'VE BEEN SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET AND IT SEEMS MANY HAVE BEEN HAVING THE SAME SAFETY ISSUE. REAR CAMERAS ON OTHER MODELS OF THE HONDA ACCORD HAVE HAD RECALLS. GIVEN SO MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS, IT WOULD ONLY BE APPROPRIATE FOR THE 2017 ACCORD TO BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALLS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD. THE CONTACT STATED THAT MOISTURE WOULD ENTER THE VEHICLE FROM AN UNKNOWN LOCATION AND ACCUMULATE INSIDE OF THE UNDERCARRIAGE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE FLOORBOARD WAS SOAKED AFTER A CAR WASH OR AFTER DRIVING DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT HE COULD HEAR WATER SWAYING BACK AND FORTH WHILE DRIVING. THE CONTACT CALLED HERSONS HONDA (15525 FREDERICK RD, ROCKVILLE, MD 20855) WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN DEAD ON 4+ OCCASIONS. STATIONARY, IN GARAGE. VEHICLE IS DRIVEN AS LITTLE AS ONCE PER WEEK AT TIMES BUT THE BATTERY OR ELECTRIC DRAW HAS CAUSED THE CAR TO FAIL IN AS LITTLE AS A COUPLE DAYS OR EVEN TRUNK BEING OPEN FOR 15-20MIN. I'VE HAD TO TOW THIS VEHICLE 3TIMES FOR SERVICE. DEALER IS BRUSHING THIS OFF WITHOUT RESPONSIBILITY. SAYING THE CAR HAS TO BE DRIVEN FOR MORE THAN 20MINUTES TO RECEIVE FULL CHARGE. ALSO, THE VEHICLE HAS A NUMBER OF ELECTRONICS THAT REQUIRE THE VEHICLE TO BE DRIVEN MORE. THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE THE BATTERY UNLESS IT CHECKS BAD. THE ISSUE IS AN ELECTRICAL DRAW. MOST LIKELY SEEMS RELATED TO THE REAR HATCH. BATTERY SHOULD BE REPLACED WITH A LARGER CAPACITY AND THESE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED AND DIAGNOSED FOR ELECTRICAL DRAW FAILURES.

WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN VEHICLE_ 2017 ACCORD HYBRID_ ITS SPEED WAS ABOUT INCREASING TO AROUND 55MPH FROM ABOUT 40MPH THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY LOST POWER. THE OIL AND BATTERY INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON RED ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER AND IT STALLED_ PRESSING THE ACCELERATION PADDLE COULDN'T MAKE THE VEHICLE MOVE ANY FASTER. PUT HAZARD LIGHTS ON AND MOVED TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. THE ERROR CODE 'HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY CHARGE TOO LOW; VEHICLE CANNOT START' APPEARED ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. WHEN YOU PUSH THE START BUTTON TO START THE VEHICLE, SAME ERROR CODES APPEAR (HVBC HIGH VOLTAGE BATTERY CHARGE TOO LOW, VEHICLE CANNOT START WITH THE OIL AND BATTERY INDICATORS ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER LIT ON RED). WHEN YOU PUT THE GEAR IN DRIVE IT WOULDN'T MOVE, NOR WHEN YOU PUT IT IN REVERSE THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T BACK UP. YOU COULD HEAR A LOUD REVVING NOISE WHEN YOU PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL. GOT THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER. NOTICED 2014-15 ACCORD HYBRID WAS RECALLED FOR 'HYBRID SYSTEM MAY GO INTO FAIL-SAFE MODE'. PRODUCTION WAS STOPPED IN 2016. BUT THIS IS A 2017 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID WITH SAME ISSUE FROM PREVIOUS GENERATION.

THE CAR BATTERY DOES NOT HOLD CHARGE. IF THE CAR IS NOT USED FOR THREE DAYS TO A WEEK, THE BATTERY IS COMPLETELY DEAD. THE CAR MUST BE JUMP START. I HAVE SEEN A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE REGARDING THE SAME PROBLEM. BASED ON MY PREVIOUS EXPERIENCE, CAR BATTERY LASTS SEVEN TO TEN YEARS BEFORE EXPERIENCING ANY TROUBLE. I THINK EITHER THERE IS A FAULTY SENSOR OR A SYSTEM IN THE CAR THAT STAYS ON WHEN THE CAR ENGINE IS TURNED OFF RESULTING IN THE COMPLETE DISCHARGE OF THE BATTERY.
