Several months ago, my Honda that has run very well up until now, started having problems with starting. I took it to Advance Auto and they thought it was the battery so I bought a new battery for over $200. That didn-??t help. Then my husband noticed that the dashboard showed to push the brake, gas pedal and starter at the same time. That didn-??t really help because sometimes it starts and sometimes doesn-??t. We made an appointment at a local dealer where we purchased the car and the maintenance man suggested a new starter but reading through the complaints on here, that doesn-??t always help. So he will cancel our appointment. With so many complaints on here about the car not starting, I think it-??s your duty to come up with a resolution that works. Several times I have driven the car to places not near our home and the car won-??t start. I think this is an unsafe condition and should be repaired!

My Honda Accord 2014 only has 55,5000 miles. For the last 3 months the starter is not working proper. In the last 3 months l had the battery changed, the rely switch changed. Still the problem was still there. Then a new started was installed on 1/ 18/22. Many people with less miles are complaining about the started in their Honda Accord, and Honda is not recalling the starter. I am a single woman and l feel, l am, and everyone is being taken advantage of. My first and last Honda. I am shocked about the lack of service with Honda. My starter total cost with labor was almost $400

- Tullahoma, TN, USA

Starter not working all the time. Will not start engine. Constantly doing oil changes. Battery replacements too often. Won-??t start.

- Converse, TX, USA

There are thousands for Honda Accord owners who bought model 2014 onwards have engine oil burning issue and mostly they ask to replace PCV Valve which does not make any difference even though you replace it or not. There are so many YouTube videos on it. I am also facing same issue. I bought used pre owned car, if I knew this issue I would have never bought that car. I have to change engine oil after every 1500 miles. Normally it-??s best to replace engine oil after 3000-5000 miles. I will request NHTSA to take some action against Honda. It-??s not for just my safety it-??s about safety for all Honda Accord owners. Please do something

My car has having intermediate startup cranks almost every day and starts after few attempts. I would like to file a compliant against this alleged defect for honda engine starter defect.

- Clovis, CA, USA

The car does not start consistently. I have replaced the battery two times and the starter. I will turn the key and the engine will not crank over, sometimes it will start up 30 seconds or a minute later after I attempt a couple of times. The Honda mechanic forum is stating that this is a very common problem from owners of this ninth gen Honda Accord.

At 104,000 miles the starter on my 2.4 liter Honda engine began intermittently operating. I ordered a $200 starter online that arrived with damaged connectors and had to take my car to a Honda repair facility. They acquired another starter for $300 and installed it for a total bill of $544.85. As a disabled retiree, I purchased the Honda Accord due to its reputation for reliability. I need it to be reliable transportation to take me and my wife to doctors appointments and the like, making it a serious health and safety issue for us. I do synthetic oil and filter changes every 5000 miles and rotate my tires at the same time. My plan was to keep this vehicle until the "wheels fell off" but now I'm questioning my decision and Honda's reputation. The original Honda starter core was sent back to AutoZone where the replacement starter was obtained. There were no lights or indicators of a pending problem with the starter malfunctioning.

- Knoxville, TN, USA

Unknown. Just off of warranty, vehicle has started to exhibit intermittent failure to crank/ start on an increasing number of occasions. Could leave driver stranded. Turning key 180 degrees, using valet key, and waiting for various periods of time has allowed the vehicle to start ( so far). Research shows Honda replaces starters on 2013 and earlier Accords under a recall, but claims problem has been cured in 2014 and later Accords. An online search for 2014 and later Accords show the problem persists and has not been corrected.

While on a 400 mile round trip visit to family, after stopping for a rest room break, my Honda Accord would not start after engaging the push button starter. After a few more attempts, the push button ignition finally engaged. While visiting out of state, I contacted a Honda dealer there and was told there was no recall on the starter assembly for my 2014 Honda Accord and that dealer wanted $850 to replace the starter assembly. I declined to pay that outrageous price, taking my chances to return home, a 200 mile trip. During that trip, there were multiple instances where, after stopping for either gas or a rest room break, it took multiple attempts to start the vehicle. At one point, after driving through a fast food drive thru, I pulled into a nearby parking lot to park out of the way to eat my food but kept the engine running to ensure I would get back home. After returning home, I made an appointment with a reputable local automobile repair shop and while waiting for a replacement starter to be installed, the repair technician came out to me to show me the faulty starter assembly he had removed from my Accord. The original unit removed from my Accord actually came out of the engine in two pieces. It had separated in the middle of the housing. I asked the technician how had it stayed together while it was in the engine and he said he didn't know. (2 photos attached). At the time of this repair, there were less than 45,000 on this 2014 Honda Accord (thus also on the starter assembly). The repair was made using a generic starter assembly from Napa on 04/22/2021 and I was charged $583.98 total for parts and labor. It's outrageous that such an expensive part didn't last longer than 45,000. I had a 2000 Honda CR-V that I sold with 203,000 mile on it and it still had its original starter. Granted, different type to ignition then..

Vtc actuator needs to be replaced. On a cold start after it's been sitting, vehicle makes a loud grinding noise and has rough idle.

- Minneapolis, MN, USA

Whenever I start the vehicle, it makes a grinding noise several times before starting. Took it to the dealership I bought it from and I was told it was the starter and the torque converter. I have changed the starter 4 times in span of 3 years period I have had the car. I have taken it to several mechanic and each of them tell me it's the starter and the flywheel. Took it to the dealer to fix it and told them about the flywheel issue. The tech told me it was a problem known to 2013-2015 Honda Accord. I asked the dealers to agree to fixing the starter and any other issues relating to the starter because they know what the issue is but the refused. I have 2 of my colleagues with the same 2014 Honda Accord with the same issues. The issue started 2 months after purchasing the car in November 2018 at a Honda dealership.

- Edison, NJ, USA

The car has been burning excessive engine oil ever since I purchased it. There is no oil leakage as I have never seen any oil drops where I park it. I have to constantly check the oil level and add more. I bought this car from Honda dealership as pre owned certified. I spoke to Honda dealership once about the issue and they said if the car burns 1 quart of oil in 1000 miles then we consider it excessive oil burning. At the time my car was still under warranty. They just gave me this unrealistic oil burning rate so they don't have to honor the warranty. Now my car is not under warranty and the problem of course persists.
