2015 Honda Accord UNKNOWN OR OTHER

I am reporting suspected odometer fraud and possible VIN [XXX] entation involving a vehicle being offered for sale. The seller stated the vehicle has approximately 123,000 miles. However, a vehicle history report and third-party valuation (Carvana) show the same vehicle VIN [XXX] ) wi [XXX] les recorded. This is a discrepancy of more than 180,000 miles. I personally photographed the VIN plate on the vehicle and confirmed the VIN [XXX] ) matches the h [XXX] ing high mileage. The seller did not disclose the higher mileage and is advertising the vehicle at a value consistent with a much lower-mileage vehicle. This appears to be an intentional misrepresentation of the vehicle’s true mileage. I have screenshots of the listing, seller communications stating 123,000 miles, VIN [XXX] ) photos, and documentatio [XXX] er mileage history. I am submitting this complaint to report potential odometer rollback or mileage fraud so the vehicle can be investigated before another buyer is harmed.

While I was driving my 2015 Honda accord my car suddenly slowed down. Then it stopped driving so I pulled to the side of the road. When I stopped and put it in park to turn off/on it didn’t move an inch. This happened on my way to work in traffic I have no idea what is going on. I’m located in the US Virgin Islands but the car was shipped down from Florida to here. We have an Honda dealership that I can carry it to if necessary for inspection. My safety at moment was very risky because I was on my way to work and it had traffic all of a sudden my car slows down with me on the highway without any warnings or indications that it was failing so I was really scared at the moment because I had to think fast to get myself to the side of the road. I haven’t carried it to a dealer as yet because I haven’t had time to do so. None of the superior authorities have inspected or has inspected my car since it has happened I called for opinions some said it could be transmission failure. They where no symptoms of any warning signs or indications that my vehicle was going to give out it just stopped moving.

Intermittent start of vehicle. Will drive fine even for a couple of hours. I stop for 10 minutes to go to store. Then its all dead. No power. Cannot even open the doors with my key fob. Tried pressing start - break pedal is hard. Called AAA. He did not have to jump start. I just kept pressing start. All of a sudden vehicle starts again like nothing happened. Its been fine so far for a week now. Happened twice already - same scenario. Drove it for an hour or so, then after stopping for 10 minutes its completely dead. Then will start again after several attempts -pressing the start button. Took it to Honda dealer. They cannot replicate the problem. Checked my starter, battery, alternator -did a multi-point inspection. Dealer said there are no errors. Cannot find any problem with my vehicle. They said to wait till it happens again and get it towed there dead. That's a terrible solution!

In November 2023 I began to experience difficulty starting the vehicle. The issue is the ignition switch has worn out. This issue is very random, I may start my car on average 10 times per day. It may not happen for 10 starts in a row. When it does happen, the vehicle may start after 3,5 7 tries or up to 20 including breaks in-between, different keys, etc. Key factors that have been eliminated are starter, battery and fuse. One important note I discovered today was that a mechanic on YouTube mentioned having to remove starter and add a plate to the one end, so this could be part of an electrical issue that may only be associated with another year Honda Accord specifically with a V6. This should be a SAFETY issue or at least diagnosed by Honda as it seems to be very prevalent within the brand and may occur in year #2 or #8. Having this random inoperable event happen when consumer is: 1. In a frigid snow storm rural part of America 2. In an emergency situation like medical, or safety late at night, with possible criminal entity or environment is not safe.

VSA module went out. Spoke to a lot of people with 2013-2016 and all going out at the same time.

Sunroof exploded and shattered spontaneously without any signs of being hit by a flying debris or foreign objects, while driving approximately at 70 mph along I-15 North, between the Nisqualli and Palmdale Road exits, in Victorville, CA 92392. No vehicle was ahead of me and two cars approximately 300 feet behind were following me. This happened on a Sunday between 1-2 pm. I did not know that there were incidents of spontaneous explosion and shattering of sunroofs until I was able to read an article while shopping online for a genuine Honda sunroof replacement, since Valley-Hi Honda informed me that the part is backordered with no ETA. I hope Honda will replace it for free with a recall advisory.

VSA MODULE FAILURE 94613 MILES . i understand this has become a common failure with this honda. Reporting a failure with this car. Total repair cost $2030.16 for VSA Module $465.86 for labor.

There are multiple complaints about starting issues and ABS module issues for 2013-2016 Accords online. I myself am also experiencing Starting issues and ABS issues I have bought a starter 4 times from Honda and they have all had the same issue of intermittently working. My ABS Module has just went out and Honda wants 1,300 for a problem that has been known about since the 2013 release. Something needs to be done as I have paid well over $3,000 for the issue to not be fixed.

It is regarding the Starter Grinds or Spins at Startup (Service bulletin 16-002). My car was giving finding noise while starting. When I checked with my dealer they replaced the new starter (I paid from my pocket). Again i got the same issue, then started was replaces 2nd time. On the very next day i received the same issue. So they took their time and did the diagnosis that this is something to do with (Service bulletin 16-002). Dealr is asking for parts and repair cost close to 4.5 grand. I did the research and found that this is an ongoing issue and bulletin was issued. Please advise me as i got stranded on a cold day in Chicago with my family. It is very unsafe.

Starter is faulty. Car starter does not engage engine. Needed to get it replaced

I am having issues starting my vehicle. I have a manufacture alarm system installed in a vehicle. I've never had issues but recently, when I sometimes (not consistently) hear my alarm honks twice before my the car engine starts. Now, my car doesn't even start, no click whatsoever. All the lights do come on when I attempt to start the car. I got a diagnosis done with Napa, no issues with the battery or starter. I also changed the battery on my key. Starting my vehicle was never an issue but recently, maybe 3 months ago. I've searched this issue on the internet and saw that some customers are having the same honking issues and problems with starting their car. I am very concern for my safety that my vehicle does not start. I am not able to quickly start my vehicle when there is an emergency and Ia stranded trying to start my car. Currently, I have been successful in starting my vehicle after multiple attempts, activating and deactivating my alarm, closing and opening the car door, just trying to troubleshoot the issue so I could get my car started. It's becoming an issue as my car is having issues starting daily and I fear for my safety. I contacted a Honda dealership to see what could be done but I was told it would cause me $175 to simply diagnose my vehicle which I don't have the capability of paying for. I currently have 98,000 miles on my vehicle and get an oil change, other maintenance done regularly. I don't expect this issue to happen on a reliable vehicle like a Honda Accord so this issue is surprising to me. It is causing me alot of stress and trauma whenever I start my car, not knowing if I will get stranded or not.

Car is making weird static/ like someone is getting crushed near dashboard driver side but also sounds like near rear view mirror but as well as near speaker

Honda Accord LX 2015 engine sputtered and failed 3 times while in idle with A/C on then won’t start after that. Battery, alternator confirmed good. Use medium grade gas BP, lights on, drives well after it starts. Changed battery-mechanic says good. So why does this keep happening? Am frustrated as it is expensive to change out the parts. Honda has lost its good reputation. Taking back to Honda dealer in Miami to fix again.

With no warning, the battery failed. The car started up again with a jump from AAA. I drove it for 45 minutes. Turned off the car and it would not start again. Had to spend almost $200 to get a new battery on the spot. I have not been to a dealer or service center. I was lucky to be in a position to get a new battery quickly. It may have affected my safety if I'd been out of the city and unable to get help.

The car will not start. Steering wheel and gearshift are locked. Beeps and flashes various symbols when attempting to start. Have done trouble shooting processes in drivers manual with no success. Car worked fine last night. Cannot get car to do anything. Dangerous and frustrating--what if it happened while traveling? If it won't operate, depending when it occurred could compromise safety--parked in a public area, etcetera. Car is up to date with maintenance and vehicle inspection. Presently waiting for car to be towed to dealer.

My 2015 Honda Accord V6 EXL auto transmission will not start. When I press the start button with my foot on the break, the car does not start

My daughter was driving my car on Route 80 on Thursday, May 13th around 9:10 am when she heard a noise and thought it might be her tire. She pulled off the exit Ramp for Parsippany and pulled over. When she stepped out of the car she felt heat. She turned around and saw flames under the car. She reached in for her bag and purse and when she moved away the entire car was in flames by the time the State Police arrived. She did sustain a burn to her ankle which is still healing and will take about 6-8 weeks. She got burnt on her arm, neck, ear lobe, her hair line was singed as well as her eyelashes. I am waiting for the report from the Parsippany Fire Department. The Netcong State Police were on the scene and I have that Report Number, I have not been able to retrieve this report. The car was examined by the insurance company and listed as a total loss. Unfortunately, we do not know the cause of the fire and Honda was not the most responsive during this entire thing. There was absolutely no warning of what was going on and if she did not hear something and think it was a tire she would not be here today. I will attach the photos we have of the car.

The following lights are all on: FCW, LDW, Air Bag, Check Engine, Power Steering, ABS, and Tire Pressure monitoring system These lights are on and off for at least 5 times in the last 50 days.

I HAVE 60,000 MILE STARTER IS BAD.

I WAS PULLING SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PARKING LOT WHEN SUDDENLY CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL AND BRAKES DID NOT FUNCTION..CAR WAS GOING EXTREMELY FAST..I HIT A POST AND A BUILDING..AIRBAG DEPLOYED..CAR WAS TOTALED.. AIRBAG SAVED ME. CAR ONLY HAD LITTLE OVER 30,500 MILES..IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. MY FAMILY WHO DROVE THE CAR CAR SAID THAT AT TIMES WHEN RELEASING BRAKE THE CAR WOULD LURCH FAST FORWARD OR BACK WHEN IN REVERSE. WHEN THE CAR CAME TO A STOP AFTER HITTING BUILDING THE 1ST THING I DID WAS LOOK WHERE MY FOOT WAS..IT WAS ON THE BRAKE. I KNEW IT WOULD BE CONSIDERED "DRIVER ERROR" BECAUSE I AM 80 YRS. OLD. BUT IT WAS THE CAR. ACTUALLY THIS HAPPENED BEFORE A FEW MONTHS AGO BUT I WAS ABLE TO STOP CAR . SAME SITUATION..PULLING SLOWLY INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A MCDONALD'S PARKING LOT. CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, JUMPED CURB WENT DOWN A HILL AND ENDED UP ON NEW ROAD UNDER CONSTRUCTION..THAT LANE HAD NOT OPENED YET. I MANAGED TO STOP AT BOTTOM OF HILL. CONSUMER HAS INJURIES FROM THE AIRBAGS. I HAVE A CLEAN DRIVING RECORD..NO ACCIDENTS. I AM A RETIRED RN..VERY CLEAR MINDED. NO SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS. *LN*JB

THE CAR BEEN HAVING HARD TIME STARTING. MOST OF THE TIME IT STARTS RIGHT AWAY AND SOMETIME IT WILL JUST CLICK AND WONT START. BUT WILL START AFTER A FEW TRIES. HAD THE BATTERY ,ALTERNATOR,AND STARTER CHECK. AND EVERYTHING CAME OUT GOOD. SOMETIMES AFTER A QUICK STOP TO THE STORE THE CAR WONT START. CHECK FOR RECALL ON MY CAR AND IT SHOWS 0 UNREPAIRED CALLS. SEEM LIKE ALOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING SAME ISSUES.

MY SIRIUS/XM RADIO RECEPTION IS INTERMITTENT. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. INTERNET SEARCHES SUGGEST THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM WITH HONDA VEHICLES. HAS THIS PROBLEM BEEN REPORTED TO NHTSA AND IS NHTSA CONSIDERING A RECALL?

WHILE DRIVING OUR 2015 HONDA ACCORD NORTH ON I-15 NEAR SALT LAKE CITY, UT, WE HEARD A VERY LOUD, EXPLOSION LIKE NOISE ON THE TOP OF OUR CAR. WE EXITED THE INTERSTATE AND FOUND THAT THE SUNROOF WAS SHATTERED. IT HAD EXPLODED! THE AREAS OF THE CAR SURROUNDING THE SUNROOF WERE NOT AFFECTED.

ATTEMPT TO START CAR FIRST THING IN THE AM. CAR IS IN THE GARAGE. DOES NOT START, AND THE FCW, LDW, TIRE PRESSURE, POWER STEERING, ENGINE CHECK, LIGHTS COME ON. READING THE CODES SHOWS P2101 SET. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. FIRST TIME, AAA CHECKED AND CHARGED BATTERY AND A ERASED P2101 CODE. SECOND TIME AAA CHECKED BATTERY SAID IT WAS BAD, REPLACED BATTERY, I RESET P2101 CODE. THIS LAST TIME, A FEW WEEKS AFTER NEW BATTERY INSTALLED, TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO START. ON THIRD TRY CAR STARTED, RAN OK, THE FCW, LDW, AND OTHER ABOVE MENTIONED CODE WERE ON. READ THE CODE AND IT WAS P2101. TRIED RESETTING CODES, WAS UNABLE TO RESET CODE. DROVE THE CAR FOR AWHILE, RAN FINE. THIS IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH, I SEE THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH HONDA ACCORD SINCE 2013. LOOKS LIKE DEALERS ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINE CAUSE. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALER SINCE THIS TIME I AM UNABLE TO RESET CODES

THIS CAR HAS A PUSH BUTTON START. YOU ENGAGE THE BRAKE AND PRESS THE BUTTON TO START. IT WILL NOT START. IT ONLY MAKES A GRINDING SOUND. I CAN RELEASE THE BRAKE, PRESS THE START BUTTON TO DISENGAGE THE START EFFORT. THEN REAPPLY THE BRAKE, PRESS THE START. SOMETIMES IT WILL THEN CRANK AND SOMETIMES I HAVE TO GO THROUGH THIS SCENARIO MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE IT WILL CRANK. THIS ISSUE DOES NOT HAPPEN EVERY TIME YOU ATTEMPT TO CRANK THE CAR BUT THE PROBLEM WITH THAT IS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL AND WHEN IT WON'T. I'M VERY CONCERNED WHEN IS IT GOING TO FINALLY NOT CRANK AND WHERE MIGHT I BE, THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES, ONLY TO GET THE RESPONSE, "THE STARTER IS GOING BAD", THIS VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 70,000 MILES AND THIS CHAIN OF EVENTS HAS BEEN GOING ON OVER A YEAR. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE NEW AND IT HAS BEEN SERVICED REGULARLY AT THE DEALERSHIP. I ALSO HAVE ANOTHER HONDA ACCORD 2014 (VIN#[XXX]) THAT HAS THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. MY DAUGHTER AND GRAND DAUGHTER DEPEND ON THIS CAR. I'M SO WORRIED ABOUT THEIR SAFETY AND WHEN THEY MAY GET STRANDED. ON YOU TUBE THERE IS MANY EXAMPLES OF THE SAME ISSUES, THIS IS VERY SCARY.
