This is 3rd complaint! see prior complaints - 11003743 and 11035177. As noted before, mileage (when problem started) in 2nd complaint more accurate. Original starter replaced at just under 60K miles. Mileage now at 63730. Car failed to start no matter what!!! on 11/22/17, tried jump starting, P or N, put car in R and rolled back a foot, then P or N - nothing. Pushed button - no noise... no clicking, grinding... tried for over 30 minutes... battery good, remote good, connections good, dash lights all appear normal. Towed to mechanic - replaced starter again. He started it 20+ times - seemed ok, moved it to his parking area. On 11/25 I picked it up - went to start it - got grinding noise - heard by mechanic. Started 3rd time. Has done this - either grinding or spinning noise 3 times already today(11/25) - even after I got home, while trying 'dead remote' key starting procedure... would make noises, then start 2nd or 3rd time. This is very serious! please push the investigation! Honda should reimburse for costs associated with this and come up with a fix. I think if one examines the changes they have made to this vehicle after 2015, one can see that they knew of a problem and took steps to fix it. Just have to take care of us who are 'stuck'. resale value will plummet on these cars! call me!! take the car to investigate - anything!! note - replacement starter is a bendix aftermarket with lifetime warranty - this is not a starter problem - it is a design flaw causing starter problems and/or causing no/low/improper voltage or current to be applied to the starter.

When we push the starter button to crank the engine, a loud grinding noise occurs (as when you try to start an engine that is already running). Began around 23,000 miles, and has gotten progressively worse over time. Honda dealership was made aware of problem twice before 36,000 mi. Warranty expired. Honda said they found nothing wrong. Now it happens every time you start vehicle...with 4 or 5 attempts to actually start car. Grinding at every attempt. Now at 48,000 miles, we're told that we are going to have to pay for this defect...around $900. We noticed that there is hundreds of people on line with same problem. Plus many youtube videos to confirm it. We also have read reports that Honda starters for these model years were manufactured incorrectly/improperly, with Honda aware of it. This problem happens anywhere the vehicle is parked.

My 2014 Accord ex sedan is on recall notice and I am having a final repair on the battery management senor next week. For several weeks I am experiencing an electrical problem intermittently trying to start my car. When I push the start button with my foot on the brake pedal sometimes the care does not start. I have had the car since Nov. 2013 and have only had this problem for the past few weeks. All symbols on the instrument panel light up and quickly go off and I get a notice on the instrument panel "power is on": when I push the button again 1-3 times, the car starts. I have not experienced problems with stalling or cutting off while in motion. My battery is only 2 yr. Old. And it was just checked last month and the charge was ok. Clearly there is a short affecting ignition of the ignition of the engine. The problem I have described has so far only occurred when the car is stationary. I only have 42,000 miles on the car and so this should not be happening and is quite disturbing; it can become a major safety problem. I know that NHTSA has issued Honda electrical system campaigns F/ recall notices for other Honda vehicles with the same problem, but yet for my 2014 sedan. It needs to be included. From reviewing the NHTSA complaint database it is clear this is a known problem by NHTSA and Honda and needs to be dealt with. I am requesting that this complaint be expeditiously investigated and the problem for my car and is recognized as a systemic problem for multiple Honda products for many years and Honda figure out a permanent solution. I am requesting that Honda covers the cost of parts/labor to fix even though I am past the regular warranty period (except I am still within the power train warranty ) this week (November 13 to 11/17) problem occurred 4 times.

So, yesterday I found myself faced with a dead battery after parking in a parking lot and going into a store for 10 minutes, and called aaa of southern California. They dispatched roy's towing who arrived withing about 20 minutes of the initial call. Ian, the service tech, checked the battery and found it only had 18 cold cranking amps, (it is supposed to be around 500) I was taken aback, as the car is not that old and very low mileage. He went one step further and checked the electrical system and it's charging capacity, which turned out to be just fine. The car is just over 3 years old and had only 27,414 miles on it. I recently was in to have a battery sensor replaced due to a possible short, but the dealer just spread some sealer on it. Could this be the problem" we have already had to replace the starter motor assembly and the alternator, this at 16, 212 miles.. now that we are out of warranty, the battery, installation, etc. Cost $123 total. I have checked the internet and have found many complaints of this nature with starter, alternator and failing batteries at low mileage for the 2014 Honda Accord. A wide spread problem"

Honda starter replaced under 36K miles but out of warranty by timeframe. Honda refuses T reimburse for the replacement starter eventhough they were notified before the vehicle reached 36K miles. The 2014 Honda Accord V6 had the same issue and a service bulletin was issued where the starter was replaced (https://www.cars.com/articles/2013-2015-Honda-Accord-crosstour-starter-issue-1420684480836/ ) this seems to be an ongoing issue for vehicles that are not within this service bulletin but Honda will not repair doesn't seem fair to the consumer that they are aware of this problem and leave us to fight to try to get them to do whats right. This will be my last Honda.

Update to prior - vehicle starter was replaced with new aftermarket unit, problem resumed after a few weeks. Pushing start button exhibiting numerously reported problems and several attempts required to get it to start. Had the battery sensor recall item Honda # kho (the inspection and re-sealing) done on 10/18/17 - that night it had the same starting issue... no link with the sensor (at least the 'band-aid' fix). I then checked and tightened the nuts at both ends of the battery ground-to-chassis cable - we'll see if that helps - there was no sign of corrosion, but the nut did turn about 1/2 turn at the chassis side... now have 62600 miles on vehicle and this problem has been going on since about 39K... we really need a good solid fix - and if it really is a starter placement issue, need a solution! and Honda needs to reimburse everyone for costs to date!

I got a letter in Aug 2017 about a "important safety recall" and since then the coggin Honda dealership of orlando has given me nothing but the run around. They answer my calls and say someone will get back to me, but that never happens tried to reach the manager twice but he could not be reach the salesperson no longer there. If my Honda has an important safety recall I am being led to believe this dealership could care less. We bought a Honda because we felt it was a trusted name and imagine we will not go very far or use it much until the safety issue resolved. Please help us with this problem or least guide us in what to do next.

There has been numerous complaints in regards to the starter having a "grinding", "static-like", or "whining" sound and it has seemingly affected my car as well. For example, when I am preparing to leave for my destination, do a basic press of the starter button, and I will hear that grinding and whining sound... on occasion, it will take a number of tries to get the car started. This has been happening on the regular. There is a Honda technical bulletin (dated February 5, 2016) number 16-002 in regards to the starter and also a pending class action lawsuit (merkin V. Honda North american Inc., american Honda motor co., Honda motor company ltd.) I cannot pinpoint an exact date on when this started (I gave you my best answer), but it has been going on for several months and I fear if it continues, it could hurt my car in the long run or I could possibly be stranded if I go on a long journey somewhere

The battery dies intermittently for no reason. I had them temporary fix done in July of 2017. I didn't have any problems with the battery until this week. I have had the battery die twice this week. The car starts fine some days and others it won't. I called Honda and they told me the recall had nothing to do with the battery staying charged.
