Accord

  • 200 miles
I bought a 2011 Honda Accord LX, it was delivered with 11 miles. After I drove the car for little over 300 miles it was making a lot of noise. The noise is coming from the transmission and left side suspension when the car is put in reverse. I contact Honda of North America and inquire about the loud noise they told me that there is no recall on my car. I then contact the dealership that I bough the car from to check it out. I meet with the service manager and I let him listen to the noise, he then stated that it was normal which I find very strange. About a few days later the loud noise from the transmission also came a new problem a loud clunking noise from the left side front suspension. I contact the dealer and talk to service rep and explain what was going on he check the service record and say it was normal.

Accord

  • 500 miles
New 2011 Honda Accord (starting when the car got to about 500 miles on odometer): Doesn't decelerate smoothly (gives a bit of a rough "braking" & acceleration action (a bit of a rough ride) & about 100-200rpm increase) through 20mph, then, again through 15mph. Honda dealer says there's nothing wrong because otherwise, the check engine light would go on. This occurs constantly every day, usually after the car has warmed up for about 10 minutes & gone from "cold" to about 45mph speed limit driving. I wanted to make a record of it here for now in case others experience this.
