Since Nov.2018 I have the starter problem. With ignition key in either the lights come up - no turning, or is grinds and dies (garage). I replaced the battery thinking it is the battery problem (voltage ~ 12.2 V). Mileage about 52K. With new battery I experienced this problem 2-3 times again (parking lot). Last time: May 2019 - no lights, the started does not turn. Battery was 13.4 V. mileage 58K.

A few weeks ago, our 2014 Honda Accord LX, would not consistently start. I took it to two different auto-shops, including the dealership. The first auto shop could not figure out what was wrong. They said they started the car ~100 times and the car started every time. I then took the car to a dealership. The dealership said it was the starter. I replaced the starter and the car started up fine. A couple of days after fixing the car, the car did not start. The battery was tested and is okay. Our car was towed to a trusted mechanic. The mechanic said that the starter was fine and that he suspects the original did not need replacement. He said there's some sort of electrical issue, but could not figure out exactly where the issue is. He said it must be somewhere between the ignition and starter. Our leaving the car with him so that he can have other technicians inspect it.

While driving at slow speeds, 20 mph or less, car dies and then restarts on it's own. Twice while turning and once after the car was in park.

I took my car to oil change service at Honda dealership. The next day my car won't start. I had to call aaa to jump start my car. 5 days later, it died again. Called aaa to jump start it again. I took it to Honda dealership to get it inspected. I paid them $100+ just for them to say, "everything looks fine to me". 5 days later, it died again. To which at this point, I would rather not drive it again until a recall happens. This is unsafe especially if you get stranded somewhere.

When trying to turn the car on, the car may start or not. It's almost a gamble when trying to turn the car on. Honda has always been safe and reliable but due to this ignition problem I don't feel safe or it's reliability. The car is push to start, so when it does not want to start it can take anywhere from 2 to 8 try's before the car starts. I had an instance in the past two months where my phone was dead and I was 27 miles from home in a parking structure and the car did not want to start at all.

Vehicle starts sporadically. Vehicle has key ignition. Only one click when turning key. Electrical system turns on ie. Lights, radio etc. It will start sometimes after a few turns of the key. Sometimes not at all. Battery tested fine, alternator system tested fine, ignition switch is fine, fuses are fine. Faulty starter. Emergency service provided by insurance company attempted to jump vehicle would not start. Needed to be towed. Started after 5 or 6 attempts following day. Now it takes numerous attempts every time. Faulty starter numerous complaints. Honda needs to recall.

Starter is failing from time to time. When using push-button start, sometimes the starter makes a strong grinding noise and does not start the vehicle. It will sometimes do this for one, two, or three attempts in a row. Eventually, the starter will work. I'm afraid the starter will eventually fail completely. Car has less than 75,000 miles.

Vehicle only has 40000 miles on it and all rotors are warped and the volume tuner knob will turn the volume up when you try to turn it down

About two months ago my 2014 Honda Accord would not start on the first try. My car was stationary, and I would need to press the push button start several times before it started. Lundgren Honda in auburn Massachusetts said I needed a new starter. I did not expect a starter to fail on a car with 43K miles, and I've read online that this is a known issue especially with the 2013 and 2014 Accord. I paid for the new starter since I did not want to be stranded if the car wouldn't start. I filed a complaint with Honda North America but they said the starter is not an issue and there is no need for a recall. I'm concerned that there have been so many complaints about the Honda starters without a recall and it poses a safety risk if people are stranded by a part that fails prematurely. Although I have a new starter I fear it may fail like the first one did. I've attached photos of the invoice from the Honda dealership explaining the issue. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Starter system failed to start the engine. It turned on electrical but would not start the car. The lights turned on and there was one click but nothing else despite repeated attempts to start the car. Left me stranded.

When trying to start the car, it won't turn on, like the battery is dead or I need a new starter. This has been happening for about 3 months everyday. Before it was every once in awhile.

The backup camera display has a black screen and no image of what's behind the vehicle. Sometimes it comes back on but is fuzzy and blurry. It then goes back to black. In both cases the rear back up camera feature is useless and causing a safety hazard for the driver. Additionally the seat memory feature has gone out as well. It no longer remembers the location for driver 1 or driver 2. the movement of the driver's seat is also affected and does not move continuously when the controls are engaged. This affects the safety of the driver and proper seat location and viewpoint.

Starter grinds or spins at startup. The problem is intermittent at first but gets worse over time untill the car won't start at all leaving you stranded. Honda released a service bulletin 16-002 that covers the problem and the fix for it.

Honda Accord 2014 fails to start after multiple tries, then works out of the blue. I am worried it will leave me stranded one if these days. My car is only 33K miles. Honda needs to do a recall. We should all file a petition against Honda starter issues. I see multiple similar complaints.

My car keeps dying. The dealer is unsure what's going on with my car. There is no check engine light on. There was a battery recall in 2017.

My Honda Accord has had starter issues beginning around 36,000 miles. It has left me stranded at work and at the gas station. It conveniently begins to give out around time warranty ends. If it is a typical 100+ degree day here or a very cold day the starter will not work. I have replaced the battery twice. I have contacted Honda on more than one occasion and they will only gives a small reduction in price to fix. They refuse to issue a recall stating it doesn't cause risk of life or bodily injury. I beg to differ, as a car not starting in middle of night when chance of no one being around to help, it can be life threatening. The car has even stopped working several times while on the highway in southern California during rush hour and beginning to fail while going 70 mph. After extensive research I found this to be a common issue with owners of 2012 - 2016 Honda (more than one model) and ranging between 36,000 to 55,000 miles.

While vehicle is stationary and moving the back up camera is black when in reverse with guidelines. It got darker and pixilated then when black about 2 months ago. Now the side lanewatch camera has also stopped working when blinker is on or button pressed. Very dangerous to have limited visibility especially when backing out of a parking spot or on a garage. Please address this!

Push button start intermittently does not start car -- lights come on but wont start think it may be part of the probelms stated onder tsb 16002 apparently a defect in the design of the starter system N--- however Honda will not pay if out of warranty at 45000 miles should not happen Honda needs to man

This just out of warranty vehicle has had some odd problems, some that made the car unsafe to drive, 1) ac compressor clutch melted onto compressor. Fixed under warranty. 2) timing belt tensioner leaked fluid, fixed under warranty. 3) dealer diagnosed ABS module fault. An intermittent failure. Car was out of warranty. This problem caused every other electronic safety system in the car to intermittently fail. Opened a case with american Honda who denied any responsibility for the problem. These units fail rarely and should last the life of the vehicle. The part (36,000 mile 3-yr warranty) was even back ordered from the manufacturer. For example, only 1 unit was replaced in atlanta, ga since 2014, they wanted almost $1,600 to fix the issue. Took it to another specialist who fixed it for under $600 by finding a used part. I think Honda should have been more accommodating and concerned. This problem caused the ABS, ldw, fcw, and traction control systems to eventually fail. Literally, I was lucky that I didn't get in a bad accident as the ABS was actually functioning (the day a car turned left in front of me) and saved me from skidding into and T-boning another car. But all these odd issues just leaves me wondering... when's the next weird problem going to pop up?

Often takes multiple times to start the car. Sometimes it starts right up, other times it takes 2,3,4,5...10 times to start, and sometimes it can take up to 20 minutes to get it started. Once it's started, the car runs very well. The problem is becoming more frequent. When you press the ignition button, sometimes it makes a clicking sound, sometimes it makes no sound. All the auxiliary power comes on but the engine doesn't turn over. We have found many many complaints online detailing the same problem with the 2014 Accord. Mine has just over 67,000 miles on it - way too early for a starter to be failing. This problem has been happening for about 6 months -- but when it started, it would only take 2 or 3 tries to start the car. We replaced the battery and it seemed to fix it for about a month, but then it came back. After much research, we believe it is a defective starter. The Honda dealership wants $590 to replace the starter. This is clearly a flaw in manufacturing. Honda needs to issue a recall.
