Sticking piston rings resulting in high engine oil consumption: Vehicle maintained by dealer including oil changes. Vehicle has no oil in reservoir between oil changes. Vehicle burns oil. Piston rings stick and it causes oil to burn excessively. There are multiple campaigns that Honda knows about. They knew about tsb 17-089 and still gave my vehicle a certified pre-owned status without fixing the engine problem first. It is dangerous to drive a vehicle with no oil in it!

At ~92,500 miles, this car has suddenly begun in the past week to shut off while accelerating/driving (in motion) on surface streets and freeways. The multifunction screen and/or sound system and/or dash/engine/acceleration will shut off without warning while I am operating the vehicle in traffic anywhere from 15-65 mph. When it has happened, the system has quickly rebooted and allowed me to resume driving. It feels very unsafe and unpredictable.

We have had intermittent problems where the car will not start. It just makes a clicking sound. We can jump start it and drive it around and sometimes the problem goes away for months at a time. Then randomly it will not start again. I have had the battery and charging system checked multiple times by autozone, advance auto, O'reilly, and walmart service center. The battery and charging system always reports as fine. I recently had the oil changed at walmart and the service technician could not get it to start. He jumped it and drove around to the other side of the bay to check the battery and it happened again. He removed the cables and cleaned the terminals and sprayed on battery post protectant and then jumped it again. I drove home and had not had any problems for over a month and now it has happened again. This all started after having the factory recall battery management sensor replaced in late 2017. This is at least the eight time over the past 1+ years. I was told by at least one autozone employee that they have seen many Honda vehicles with a similar problem because the battery sensor or main fuse block will intermittently block any voltage coming from the battery into the starting system. It is random and will sometimes even prevent a jump start unless you tap on the top of the sensor. And then it starts fine. My local Honda dealership claims there is no such problem and refused to call me back to have the vehicle checked while still under warranty. I am now out of warranty due to the date of purchase and not mileage and all they will say is that it sounds like my starter is bad and needs to be replaced which will cost over $700 now that I am out of warranty.

After coming to a stop, the engines revs up and the car begins to creep forward with brake applied until pressure on the brake is released and then RPM returns to normal. This has happened at least four times. You stop the car by taking your foot off the brake.

Difficulty starting. Keyless entry senses key but fails to start when brake is depressed and ignition button is pressed. Happening multiple times/week and becoming more frequent. Often starts after 2-3 attempts. Not resolved by replacing battery, resolving battery sensor recall, or checking fuel pump. Problem seems to be starter and has left me stranded when car does not start.

During stand still and driving, when I step on acceleration pedal the car often time hesitates to move. To avoid an accident, I have to press hard on acceleration pedal, then she moves too fast. In an another word, I can't control the car speed in the way I want at 60 percent of the time.

When starting car initially in the mornings and driving car in reverse with only braking and not applying any gas, after the first 10 feet in reverse the engine will rev up by itself and then stabilize, or engine will gulp air with engine jerking, or engine will rev up very high with the final last sound of clashing metal between the engine/transmission and the engine dying on the spot. These problems only occur with the initial starting of the car and only in reverse. The car functions normally after the events described above. The car is always garaged. The engine behavior described is intermittent and unpredicatable. Clashing metal and stopping of engine last occurred July 26, 2017.

On March 20, 2015, I leased a Honda Accord for 3 years from the Honda of mentor automobile dealership. Immediately after taking possession of the car, I noticed the car had a very significant vibration problem. After driving the car for a few days, I took it back to the dealership and complained about the vibration. The service personnel I complained to acted like the car had no vibration problem at all --- intimating I was imagining things. After driving the car a few days more, I noticed that when stopping at a stop light and shifting the transmission from drive to neutral, the vibration lessened considerably. My car came equipped with a "continuously variable transmission (cvt)", so I assume the vibration is most likely related to the transmission (I have never been an auto mechanic). I have had the car for 22 months now and, although the vibration problem has lessened somewhat, it is causing me considerable consternation because I have decided to purchase the car outright when my 3-year-lease expires. I am worried that shortly after I purchase the car outright I will be faced with a horrendous bill to repair/replace the cvt or whatever it is that is causing the vibration. Question: Is the NHTSA maintaining a log of complaints regarding Honda"S "vibration complaints" similar to mine? I am 82 and with my meager pension I certainly do not want to be hit with a horrendous repair bill if the vibration problem is due to the Honda's incompetence.

Page 2 of 2 - I have since taken the vehicle to brandon Honda and basically was advised by a service advisor, manager and America Honda co that my vehicle is 'operating by design', 'my issues could not be duplicated on several test drive attempts' and 'it's a safety feature' talking about when the vehicle can engage into reverse. As of today I have no resolution to the cvt transmission and front end concerns brought to the attention of brandon Honda. I was also told by a service technician that 'this was a safety feature' and 'it's operating as designed' which both are not solutions to resolve a mechanical/safety defect in the vehicle or design. I have given brandon Honda multiple tsbs to review each visit and kept having them rejected. One of those tsbs mentions having to drop the transmission to replace a module inside of the casing. Obviously the dealership is doing whatever they can to avoid having to perform this repair and keep dragging their feet to accomplish absolutely nothing. The original Honda case # [xxx] was opened and then closed via voicemail prior to me receiving my vehicle back from the dealership to determine if the issue was resolved, yet to my satisfaction. What will it take for Honda to act and make my vehicle, experience whole"???" I bought my vehicle with hard earned $ not counterfeit, broken or life threatening. Note: I have video of the vehicle in reverse motion while continuing forward, along with several tsbs, work orders, pictures and documents to support my case. This is my only means of transportation and I'm driving over the howard franklin bridge (15,899') every day in my commute to and from my office. Feel free to contact me for the video, pictures or documents needed to support my case.

Page 1 of 2 - I purchased my 2015 Honda Accord coupe ex-L with 2.4L cvt in June of 2015 new with maybe 5 miles on the odometer. I started having issues just months after purchasing the vehicle from brandon Honda. The first incident occurred when pulling out of my office complex onto a busy highway when the car decided to just shut off causing the steering column to also seize while the odometer flashed "fcw failure" along with several other instrument panel lights on steady. Since that occurrence it seems as if I've had nothing but problems with the vehicle. I have on several occasions taken the vehicle in for repeated transmission/front end issues ' such as jerking between rpms, down 'shifting' for no reason causing rpms to just drop instead of holding when releasing my foot from the accelerator and while traveling at highway/interstate speeds of 55+ mph, etc. The last 3 times included an additional issue where the gearshift would go from (D) drive and into (R) reverse while continuing to go in a forward motion with back up camera displaying on dash screen and (R) displaying on the odometer where the gear is displayed. The discovery of this safety hazard took place for the first time on an interstate while traveling 65+ mph. The passenger at the time was reaching to grab their beverage from cup holder closest to the gear shifter when it was hit/tapped in the upward motion engaging the transmission into (R) reverse. It took me a minute to grasp what happened because while I'm looking forward into the direction I'm driving, I glance down at the odometer and notice (R) in place of the (D) where the current gear engaged would be indicated. Then out of the corner of my eye I notice the camera was on display but not realizing the camera was from the rear and could see the vehicles directly behind me on the interstate.

Engine misfires at 50-60 mph with the tachometer surging from 1400 RPM to 2500 RPM with each misfire. You cannot maintain your speed and therefore are not able to safely drive on the highway. Took it to the dealer who stated that Honda has been aware of this issue for some time but does not have a fix for it yet.
