Honda Accord

"Bad cylinder - uses 1 qt of oil per month - known defect by Honda. $4k-$6k to repair."

"Valve seats were over bored a factory and Honda replaced the motor, at no cost"

"3x in dealer for fouled plugs, finally replaced oil rings on back cylinders as factory warranty. Had to get forceful for Honda to pay for replacement plugs to keep them all within reasonable like mileage. Had H2O pump and timing belt changed also"

"V6 engine was buring oil and fouling spark plugs, Eventually Honda had to replace pistons and clean cyclinder heads"

"Oct 2014 Piston rings rotated and aligned, led to extreme spark plug fouling, loss of power, and drop of 4-6 mpg. Honda dealer updated PCM and replaced spark plugs 1-4 per Part A of TSB. By Jan 2015 plugs were badly fouled, as if never changed"

"The "check engine" light came on and since Honda had replaced a faulty spark plug previously, Honda determined that a more major problem was with the cylinder head and needed repair"

"Severe vibration in engine so car could not be driven. Problem corrected by changing the computer timing of valves. Honda paid for repairs at no charge"

"recall on rings and cylinder head was bad also"

"cylinder #3 had oil leak around the piston ring that caused car to need to have piston rings and spark plugs to be replaced for cylinder #1-3. Was told by Honda dealer that if I had continued to drive the vehicle, the catalytic converter would have been ruined and possibly the engine might need to be replaced. Honda Motors covered 70% of the repair cost, acknowledging their awareness of this problem with the V-6 engine for several model years around 2009."

"The engine burned oil and was low on oil. The system never alerted me to the fact that the engine was that low on oil. There is a piston ring issue on this model year of the car that I was never alerted to. It causes the engine to burn excessive amounts of oil and destroys the engine if not caught."

"Excessive oil consumption caused by leakage around the pistons. This was not a leak. the situation would have been covered by an extended factory warranty, but because of the low mileage the problem did not develop until after the extended factory warrant period ended."

"Oil consumption due to piston ring wear inherent to this engine. It has been occurring since the year of purchase in 2008. Although I experienced the symptoms, my VIN serial number was not eligible in the recall. It progressed over the years, worse every year, oil fouling plugs, mis firing and eventually wouldn't start until work was done to it."

"There was a factory recall issued for excessive oil consumption. It took some arguing with the dealer, but the repair was ultimately done at Honda's expense. It solved the problem completely, and the car runs like it's new."

"one cylinder went bad and Honda rebuilt the engine."

"Engine piston rings failed and had to be replaced which Honda took care of under a warranty since they were aware to this being an issue in their vehicles."

"The check engine light came on and the car was running rough. I was told to have the car towed to the dealer and not drive it. There was a ring problem on one bank of cylinders allowing oil to pass and foul the plugs. The dealer informed me that I needed a ring job which would cost approximately $3500. This was something about the V6 engine. I advised I would check it out and let them know. I checked online and found that this problem was the subject of a class action lawsuit a few years ago but I was not told even though I have had all service done at the dealer and this is my third Honda bought at this dealer. They called Honda and after much discussion they agreed to pay approx. 2/3 of the cost and I paid approximately $1300. I was without the car for 3 weeks. To settle the suit the agreement was to extend the warranty to 8 years but I was past that. I have really enjoyed this car but I wont be buying another Honda especially now that the Accord doesn't come with the V6 motor. Bottom line the dealer should have told me as I have had this car regularly serviced and have done the EXTRA things like timing belts,etc as they recommended. Again I want to say that overall I have really enjoyed this car but I wont be buying another Honda Accord."

"The car started running rough and was towed to the dealer per their advice. The car had to have new rings in one bank of the V6 engine as it was blowing oil past the rings and fouling the plugs. It turns out that there had been a service bulletin put out several years ago that I had not heard about regarding this problem. After several calls to Honda they agreed to pay 2/3 of the repair cost which was substantial for a 10 year old car. I paid approximately $1400 to fix. I had always had the car serviced at the dealer and had also purchased two previous cars from this dealer. Needless to say i was upset as I loved this car and anticipated more service than it turned out to be. It was a problem with the V6 motor I found out from forums and chat rooms. I have always thought of Honda as very reliable but I wont be buying another. Next time I go with Toyota."

"Oil pump failed and engine had to be replaced."

"The cam shafts had to be replaced and while the engine was apart, we had the timing belt and water pump replaced"

"The engine burned oil in excessive amounts 2 quarts per 1000 miles. Dealer replaced the engine after repeated complaints"

"Cylinders and Pistons had to be replaced"

"Using oil, covered by Honda. Rebuilt 3 of 6 cylinders and head gasket"

"Engine began burning oil. Upon investigating, it turns out the Honda Accord V6 engine had a design / manufacturing flaw in which the piston rings would wear prematurely, allowing engine oil to travel from the crankcase into the cylinder head. Initial"

"Had very high oil burn. No Leaks, had it looked at and apparently Honda has a service bulletin that says that the rings get bound up in the pistons and don't seat oil. Service is piston & ring replacement"

"Engine re-built due to factory recall for defective piston rings"

"Piston and rings were replaced under an extended warranty . I was not aware of the warranty extension until the dealers agent told me I had excessive oil use,l"

"Was using too much oil did a oil consumptiom test Rebuilt engine"

"The engine was rebuilt to replace piston rings that were too soft causing excessive oil consumption"

"Notice was given that some models were experiencing oil loss due to bad pistons/rings. They did a multi-month test and replaced my pistons & rings at their cost, and also an actuator that was going bad, at my cost"

"Broken piston ring"

"Serious oil consumption since new, Honda deflected calling it normal, years later class action suit filed, my car not in the those considered applicable to law suit even though it has the exact symptoms. Honda lawyers jerking the public around to save company money. They win will never buy Honda again, despite your high ratings that were somewhat misguided, not your fault. I understand"

"Engine was using oil at an excessive rate. It would consume up to a quart of oil in approximately 1200 miles. Honda replaced the piston rings at no cost to me."

"After 100,000 miles I had the timing belt, spark plugs, belts, cooling liquids, and oil changed on the recommendation of the Honda dealer. Cost $1500. About 3-4 months later the check engine lite came on. Took it to the Honda dealer for repair. Result-two cylinder rings were leaking oil. Cost to repair ~$750.00. Five months later check engine lite came on. Took it to the Honda dealer for evaluation and repair. Cost $3,200,00! In short I spent $5,500 in repairs on a car that has been maintained by the BOOK. I have not owned any other car for 32 years and never had ANY problem. This year I bought a Toyota Avalon because of the excellent reliability rating by CR. Honda big disappointment."

"one cylinder went bad and damaged cylinder wall Honda Corp. repaired it."

"Timing belts are very expensive to replace along with the other things they recommend at that time. I spent $1600. Why can't all cars have timing chains like my Toyota Celica which didn't need to be replaced"

"This was just normal required maintenance on my vehicle for its current mileage"

"Timing chain jumped a tooth."

"leaky timing belt tensioner necessitated $1100 repair bill"

"engine noise at cold start up, from overhead cam assembly. Oil consumption,one quart or more every 1000 miles"

"I had a defective timing belt tensioner. While the dealer had the engine apart, I had them replace the water pump and timing belt since that would be necessary in the next 20,ooo miles"

"Rear Brake system need replacement,poor design.During shift from park to drive or reverse big clutch noise.Lastly this model car has variable time chain problem. Honda Dealer repair shop tells us problem seen on this model year"

"Variable belt timing controller went bad and took out the timing chain"

"stretched timing chain requiring sprockets and VTC actuator replacement. Likely due to excess oil consumption from the accord"

"Had shrieking noise when vehicle started, especially in cold weather. Dealer stated it was a VTC gear on the timing chain"

"Rear brake light was replaced"

"The back-lighting on the buttons to control climate, radio have slowly burned out over the years. So in the dark, you cannot see the buttons. Dealer says it will be expensive to fix because they have unassemble the entire dashboard."

"back light illumination for climate control section, on dashboard, failed"

"The headlight beam pattern is inadequate for the car. We are very dissatisfied with the lighting intensity and pattern. I'm sure the new LED lights perform better and we will probably upgrade"

"I had a bulb stop working in the interior. It was quite costly to remove the headliner and replace."

"Some dashboard lights burnt out"

"the dashboard illuminating lights shorted out because of the radio"

"INTERIOR LIGHTS DO NOT WORK"

"some of the indicator lights (vent, rear window) lights do not come on, will take to local mechanic to fix. Replaced dome lights"

"The overhead console lights stop working. Then when you take apart to replace bulb, it starts working again, only to stop working again later. Some type of push switch or other contact issue in the construction of the overhead unit"

"Both the driver pointing and the passenger pointing interior lights have faiiled on separate occasions. One bulb was replaced by the dealer with no indication of why it failed. The other one was out for a week then suddenly began working again. Deale"

"Interior lights will turn on while car is at rest in garage. Key FOB has never worked and Honda has never fixed it...before and after warranty. Rattle behind rear seat beneath window is continuous and Honda dealer has not fixed it. Kind of a lemon"

"dashboard indicator lighting for the radio and a/c controls are partially out"

"The 'night time' lights on some of the controls no longer work. The dealer advised that it would cost about $1,000 to repair this as the control panel would have to be replaced. Couldn't they change the light bulbs??"

"interior lights dont work constantly and driver door doesnt lock with botton"

"In wet or cold weather key fob does not operate locks properly"

"BOTH KEYS DO NOT UNLOCK THE CAR"

"has not worked properly from day one. was told they were aware of problem but did not know what to do to fix it"

"Key fob had problems within the first 24 months i would replace the battery and it would improve for a few months. when no longer would work I inquired to replace and found there was a service advisory for the fob but i was now out of warranty"

"The remote on one key has failed. Replacing the battery does not help"

"Occasionally unable to unlock doors with key fob"

"Keyless entry does not work for driver side door"

"The remotes on both keys quit working and new batteries did not solve the problem. The contacts were worn resulting the replacing of the keys for $400. Way too soon for remotes to wear out since only I drive the car"

"battery replaced. battery was new and still did not work sometimes - it must be serviced/cleaned inside connectors"

"Keyless entry system has always had poor range, with new batteries, still performs poorly"

"I was unable to use the keypad to open car doors"

"intermittent operation"

"Replaced battery in both keyless entry keys and they still don't work 99% of the time. Honda has keyhole only on driver's side. not passenger. not trunk. I have a baby, so I often have to step into traffic to unlock the driver door manually. Bad!"

"Sensors have failed several times, a real and expensive annoyance."

"The TPMS light comes on, (or the tire symbol indicating low pressure) regardless of whether the condition exists. This has been a perennial problem, starting about 5 years after purchase."

"Does not work. When asked about it, I was told it would be $50 per tire to replace. I bought a $20 digital tire gauge instead."

"same thing happened with Accord at with Fit"

"Batteries in each wheel needed replaced. Cost $580 to replace and calibrate."

"Several warning lights have will display, and usually within a day or two reset. My independent mechanic who only works on Honda said the ECM Software needed to be updated. The local Honda Dealer said it was up do date, but they also installed a Battery that was not the correct one for my car, then argued with me that it was. Not until it Failed less than a year later, and AAA came to the same conclusion that I did, the Dealer replaced the Battery with the correct one. I've owned Honda's since my first one I purchased New in 1978. I've had problems with my last two Honda's, a 2007 Fit I purchased new in 2006, and within the first 15,000 miles had ignition problems, stumbling, and misfires, which stumped 3 great independent mechanics, and 4 Dealers. Finally it was determined thousands of miles later, and numerous trips to the mechanics and 4 dealers with the final dealer finally checking the coilpacks (after I had already suggested this to a couple mechanics and 3 Dealer Service Departments) I felt this should have been taken care of under warranty, since I had this problem from the first year. The BEST (HA!) Honda would do is spilt the difference. This is a far cry from Honda Service I'd come to expect, and was more like the lack of service American Manufacturers would give in the 1970's and 80's. Both my Fit and the Accord I have now, are the only two Honda's that have had very disappointing Fuel Economy. As low as 15 MPG in the Fit (average about 25 MPG), and as low as 12 MPG (average about 18 MPG) with the Accord 4 Cylinder! Twice when my Fit was in the shop, I rented 4 Cylinder Accords with the CVT Transmissions, and both got around 30 MPG. My Accord was in the shop for repairs do to a hit and run collision, and the Nissan Sentra I had for a rental car, consistently got 34+ MPG. Just this past week, a friend was telling me that his Fully Loaded (Cargo) Gas F-150 Ford Van was getting about 19 MPG, in the rain, hydroplaning and a lot of uphill driving. Recently, a friend loaned me her Subaru Forrester All Wheel Drive SUV for a day, and that not only had more power, a better ride, and got over 29 MPG! Talking to the Dealer about my poor mileage with the Accord, they just seem surprised, and do nothing about it. The poor mileage with my Fit, I believe was associated with the coil pack issue, but Honda would never acknowledge. I believe this will be my Last Honda. There may be a Hyundai or Kia for my next car."

"I closed the door on the seat belt, and now the open door light stays on most of the time. The tire monitor light comes on frequently. The overhead light had to be turned off, or it will stay lit. The &^%$ dealer says that the tiny indention made by the seat belt causes all this. B.S."

"The gas cap indicator keeps coming on intermittently, even though I replaced the gas cap when it first came on."

"The check engine light would come on and off quite sporadically. It was difficult to know whethere or not there was a problem or not. When I took car the in for evaluation, the light was undetectable.The dealership couldn't detect anything that was positively wrong;I ended up taking the car to an independent person who found the problem, which was a bad coil and spark plugs were misfiring."

"Warning lights, including air bag warning light. Required to have the right front seat wiring harness replaces, at over $600. Numerous Check Engine lights on and off, problem not found, Tire Pressure Sensor lights, required sensors to be replaced, and other misc. problems."

"when turned on it does what it wants to as far as speed. it can change from slow to fast or intermittent without touching controls"

"wiper delay erratic"

"washer fluid pump"

"Regular mechanic thinks PCM has been set so that it will not count all misfires and thus Honda need never proceed to Part B of TSB. No way to verify. See Warranty Extension for Misfire DTC's. Car hesitates upon acceleration, burns oil at higher rate"

"The MASSAIR FLOW SENSOR was partially blocked by leaf particles which had gotten through the MASSAIR FLOW FILTER; blockage caused sensor to divert airflow and caused engine computer to shut down some engine options, causing rough engine performance"

"Idiot light would come on. Engine would miss. Took three times, but Honda eventually fixed it at their cost"

"Car was running roughly and misfiring due to known issue. See Honda service bulletin 13-078 - piston rings. My car's issue was resolved by on-board software update"

"The motor quit using the varable cylinder set up"

"Check engine light indicates misfiring cylinder - known problem with V6 engine - class actions suit about it but Honda will not cover it since it is over 8 years since i purchased car. Could involve replacing piston rings"

"Recall on airbag sensor. Software problem on Econo engine three cylinder operation"

"The check engine light has come on about 4 or 5 times in the past 12 months, and I just recently had a check gas cap come on"

"Honda had a major computer problem so the computer caused two sparkplugs to misfire. the computer had to be updated and plugs replaced. I experienced a sudden major engine oil consumption. another come Honda problem with this engine and model year. The piston rings were improperly install originally so new rings had to be installed. We had about two days of down time for that. Both the computer problem and the engine ring problem was covered by Honda warranty. I was told Honda didn't want to do"

"Computer controlling fuel economy cylinder shutdown caused spark plug fouling. Barely able to drive car to dealer while on out of state trip. Repair covered under warranty extension because known problem."

"I did not know that the computer had an issue. I only found out about the need for a software upgrade when the check engine light was lite. The dealer srvice department indicated that the software update was needed. Really? How can this be confirmed? Is this another way that Honda can help inflate the repair bill?"

"Loud noise in engine when starting"

"Spark plug fouling due to 3 cylinder cut out computer problem"

"Cylinder ring position created severe engine vibration. Corrected by computer adjustment of valve timing. Was part of class action suit and costs were covered by Honda extended warranty. Dealer repaired at no charge"

"upon start up"

"My engine started knocking and losing power at around 82,000 miles. At my expense, I had the plugs changed, the cylinder head adjusted and the timing belt changed, all at a certified Honda dealer/service center. Within 5,000 miles, the same problem occurred again. I took it to a different Honda dealer who indicated that Honda had notified them via a service bulletin that acknowledged an engine problem of this type occurring in my Honda model and agreed to diagnose the issue and replace the spark plugs again at no cost to me. I decided to get rid of the car as Honda service rep suggested that I could see the same problem again and might need a head gasket and other work done. I will never buy a Honda again."

"Oil consumption/Burning a quart of oil every 2000 miles."

"Oil leaking around internal seals and gaskets...dealer repaired free of charge"

"Just normal wear and tear over time"

"The engine burns oil"

"I had major oil leakage inside motor that was getting inside spark plugs. $1400 to repair. After researching the car, there was a history of oil burning with the car. A quart of oil burns every two thousand miles. There were many complaints but there was never a recall."

"My vehicle was one of those tagged as potentially having an oil consumption problem but Honda would only cover about 1/4 of the cost to fix it so I did not have it done. It has now turned into a leak and I have to put in about 1 quart of oil every fill up of gas. They should have fixed it as it was a defect."

"At about 95,000 miles found oil on driveway.Took an excellent &experinced mechanic 3 try's to fix.Was an old leaky gasket that officially needed a whole new expensive part.Honda does not sell this gasket separately from the metal part.My great mechanic jerry-rigged a seal with some silicone (?) been fine since"

"Serviced the car regularly and noticed engine had oil leak. Had dear replace gaskets and engine still leaking. Had them work more on the leak but still having issues were I am 2 quarts low between changes."

"Must add 1 qt of oil every month - car doesn't smoke - no visible oil leak."

"Leaky valve cover gasket"

"Excess oil consumption (1 qt/1000 miles). Dealer was completely unhelpful even though this is apparently a known problem with this model year"

"It had a bad main seal when we bought it. This time it was just an oil change plug that needed to be replaced"

"Engine burns oil"

"Relatively high mileage on the Accord. We have had low oil issues for at least 5 years. No oil light to indicate problems, but just the motor racing when the oil level gets low. When recall issued, our mileage was too high for the fix, but the problem was much older, and should have been covered"

"Recall occurred in Honda's 6 cylinder cars for excessive oil consumption and a class action lawsuit out of those issues, which Honda lost. There was later a warning of possible similar issues by Honda in their 4 cylinder cars (I believe specifically Accords were having such issues). I ended up having the same issue in my 4 cylinder Accord. Honda made me prove sufficient maintenance on my Accord since 2009 and when I did, Honda paid around 90% of the cost to address fixing leaking valve gasket se"

"Uses 1 quart oil every 3000 miles"

"It burns a quart of oil every 2000 miles"

"The oil leaks mean that the the oil has to be topped off when the oil gauge register reads 30% full"

"Car occasionally burns oil under varying circumstances. Not noticed during Dealer Inspection, but other times car oil goes from full to almost empty over less than 1000 miles. The is a problem covered under warrantee, but car age/mileage makes problem not covered for us."

"Covered by Honda recall on seals...was replaced...no more oil loss/leaks"

"The engine has been leaking oil. The car dealership has been unable to address this problem up until now."

"The car is burning oil as there is no evidence of leakage under the car. The dealer recommended testing for where the oil leak was and suggested it may need major engine work. We replaced the PCV Valve ourselves and are checking to see if that fixed the problem."

"Oil pump leaked. Dealer resealed and also change timing belt due to age [9 years]."

"The head gasket leaks. Rather than repair it which my mechanics say will be very costly, he recommends that I just have my oil checked and refilled more often. So far, this is the better way to go since I plan to replace this car with a 2019 model. I'm leaning toward a Honda or Toyota Hybrid this time."

"Leather seat are being to become tattered, ripping and tearing in places"

"I find that when I bought the car, the shift stick boot was worn, I chose to have it replaced, it was unsightly/taped. The cover for the console/armrest is tearing. There were no floor coverings when I bought it, I purchased Weather Tech floor covers."

"Vinyl areas on the door arm rest and center console have delaminated and split open"

"The vinyl used to cover the door and console arm rests are sensitive to body oils and became blistered and torn. Honda replaced console once, then out of warranty. Honda denies any manufacturing defect in material exists"

"Carpet loose from trim on passenger side floorboard nearest the door"

"The carpet in the front passenger side does not fit correctly and continues to come out from under the rocker panel.... I was told that the carpet was cut to short from the factory"

"Trim is poor quality. Other Honda's I have owned have held up better over time"

"Carpet will continue to come away from the rocker panel ...dealership tried multiply times to fix.. Still is not correct ... Cover on the arm rest on the doors and middle arm rest have buckled ... Dealership fixed the middle arm rest already once"

"The leather used in this vehicle was very cheap and thin. The door and center armrest began to warp after three years and had to be replaced after 5 years. Since graduating from college in the early 90s I have always purchased Honda cars. The cheap interior in the 09 Accord gave me the since that Honda was starting to use inferior parts. This lead me to look at and Purchase a Toyota for my next vehicle."

"Fake leather door panels cracking, flaking, etc. Rubber molding around windons cracked and broken. Leather seats cracking."

"The fabric on the console in between the seats is lifting."

"Paint started to peel on the roof line in patches I know this is a problem with Honda products dealer acted like it was something he never seen before. My niece has a newer Honda Pilot with the same problem."

"white paint on entire vehicle seems thin. cracking and peeling off exposing undercoat. I had roof repainted and now paint beside rear window should be redone.. discussed with Honda Dealer after purchase (5 years old) and very poor response.. no help at all and declined to help in any way."

"Side of vehicle that faces the sun the most has significant paint fade; almost down to primer. Oddly. it's only on the left rear top of fender."

"There are scratches and some places the paint would do well to be re-done."

"Paint is pealing on the front plastic bumper"

"Noticed poor paint from purchase. Easily scratched to metal. Then within 4 years c etching, fading on fenders, hood, trunk became visible & grew. Informed by a body shop, not where bought, that it was not painted properly, lacked clear coat. Put in a claim with the dealer, never heard anything from Honda. Dealer did repaint hood, trunk, and front quarter panels. The etching is apparent on areas not repainted."

"severe fading on the roof and hood. Started probably 2017"

"Paint is " mottling " around the back bumper and trunk."

"Paint scratches easily compared to other brands"

"paint job seems to be thin and cheap"

"Paint peeling off roof same problem as civic which had a recall for the same year"

"peeling paint around rear window"

"The paint is too soft and even the most minor incident leaves a scratch"

"Paint color is black and it just looks awful. Like it is faded and cracking under the clear coat. Also had a piece chip off which rusted in two weeks"

"Paint on engine hood and trunk was fading and cracking badly. Car was kept in garage and waxed on a regular basis. This defect is an obvious problem with the paint quality"

"The left rear side of the bumper cover .The paint is fading on the bumper cover (side only). The paint on the car where it meets the cover is fine . The worst part is my wife noticed it before I did :-)"

"Many pits in the paint with rust spots deveioping, some discoloration with crackling, darkening (white)"

"The top coat clear coat has split cause the paint to crack"

"white paint peeling at roof panel beside sunroof (12" sq area and beside rear window). discussed with 2 differenrt Honda dealesr without resolution. (vehicle is 8 years old, honda says no warranty, my body shop says should be covered"

"this survey thinks that I have 2 2009 honda accords, I have 1"

"Paint peeling off and no assistance after showing 2 dealers. Vehicle was 5 years old at the time and I got it repainted and paid myself."

"Paint on the bumpers are fading"

"The paint doesn't look good anymore."

"rust on bottom panel under doors"

"Both rear wheel wheels are rusting. One has rusted through"

"Front hood just started rusting without any visible damage."

"rust spots developing on all rocker panels as well as hood in multiple spots"

"rust spots showing up on hood, door sills, and around wheel wells despite frequent car washing during winter weather"

"Vehicle failed state inspection due to 2 ball joints all 4 were replaced."

"The factory ball joints last only about 49,000 miles because of New England's terrible roads."

"Control arm bushings and sway bar bushings need to be replaced"

"I heard a different kind of noise coming from the front of my car. My mechanic found the problem and fixed it."

"This issue seems to be affecting many Hondas. Heard service advisor talking to other clients about the same issue. Decided not to get it fixed at the dealer due to cost. The following week, my coworker with a Civic was told he needed the same fix for the same problem."

"Scraping noise when turning or going over uneven terrain. Dealer replaced the struts, the noise did not go away. They said steering rack is leaking so they replaced it. Disappointing low quality coming for a Honda with only 55,000 miles!"

"Power steering fluid almost empty. Had to refill completely"

"Discovered during an oil change. Honda agreed with dealership that problem should not occur so they paid 90% of cost to repair. Honda handled this very well"

"Leak on power steering unit. Unit was replaced"

"Power Steering pump appears to be be failing. The car sometimes loses power steering at low speeds (eg when when parking)."

"I have had the power steering pump replaced two times"

"power steering pump replacied"

"My only comment is this HONDA has been a complete lemon. Honda America does NOT stand by their warranty and pretty much told me they will not accept any claims even when the car was still under full warranty"

"Power steering pump leak"

"Power steering became difficult to work."

"Power steering pump developed a small leak. Replaced pump with a rebuilt unit as suggested by my mechanic. That unit was intermittently nonfunctional on cold mornings, so I had mechanic replace it again but with a new Honda OEM pump."

"Had a rough ride that was diagnosed as bad struts. They need to be replaced."

"Right and left strut replaced due to wear"

"Replaced all four in 2015. Front sets failed in 2020"

"broken; needed to be replaced"

"Told they need replacing"

"Replaced both axels. One 6 months before the other.cost very little and took less than 4 hours."

"Bearings in the steering column became very noisy and the steering column was replaced"

"Intern Nal leak in the rack and pinion needing complete replacement"

"Nothing more to tell"

"Bearing failed on end of steering column. Was not covered by warranty. Cost me $1000 to repair. Feel this was due to a manufacturing defect and Honda should have covered some of the cost"

"Power steering pump began leaking into rack and pension, which had to be replaced for $1300"

"Rack and pinion had to be replaced at 137,000 miles because of leak of power steering fluid that would prevent car from passing state mandated vehicle inspection in NC"

"At 60 mph a severe vibration in steering wheel. Cost of repair about $700. Odometer was about 75000. I complained to Honda corporate office but received no response. Not happy with Honda after owning several of them"

"car made loud clicking / banging I had to take it to the dealer multiple times. Finally a local mechanic found the problem"

"Replaced outer tire rod"

"Took car into dealer because of a funny noise - turned out to be the right front wheel bearing. I caught it in the early stages, so no disabled car, etc. Based on other cars I've owned, this failure can be considered somewhat normal for the car's age, I think (?)"

"Left front wheel bearings required repolacing at 110000"

"noisy, had tyo be replaced"

"They went bad, were making a lot of noise, and both front bearings had to be replaced"

"Axle bearing on driverside needed to be replaced"

"Just needed repair"

"Bearings had just worn out."

"The compressor stopped compressing. The clutch did not engage."

"A/C compressor failed and had to be replaced last year"

"Air conditioning unit in the car was not working, fan was just blowing air and not cooling at all."

"Needed freon."

"Outside air temp is not accurate. Auto temp control often blows AC even when it's cold"

"plastic gear clicks"

"during high temperature days on long trips, the A/C system malfunctioned and stopped cooling. Several dealers could not diagnose the problem because it was intermittent. One dealer claimed to fix the problem and it seemed so until recently when the same thing happened"

"A/C not responding when activated"

"The blower fan is noisy. The problem started in December 2013"

"It just needed to be replaced; was not blowing air out at a sufficient volume"

"Fan hitting fan housing noise"

"It would not cool"

"Radiator required a major flush"

"Most likely rust in the heater core and was cleared by acid flush"

"Had to replace heater core. Labor was very expensive"

"Air conditioner would work for approximately 5minutes and then not cool. O-ring leak was found and Freon was added"

"The A/C stopped working. A pressure test indicated that the system leaked. A dye was placed in the system and two leaks were later found. Two visits were required costing more than $700"

"Had compressor o-rings replaced in august 2016 & 2 hoses replaced in may 2017. Repairs totaled over $800"

"The air conditioner stopped working. It was caused by a leak which was repaired"

"Developed a small leak in the AC lines that required repair."

"The DVD player mounted in the trunk has begun to fail. I will be using the GPS, and then suddenly it will stop working and a message says DVD failure, see your dealer"

"Despite purchasing latest upgrade, system is not consistently accurate and frequently provides wrong directional information"

"The Honda Navigation system deck/player (where the navigation map CD is inserted) is mounted inside the trunk under the rear deck (next to the speakers. It worked famously for 4 or 5 years. Then map portion of the system would occasionally (3 or 4 times a year) stop working. The error message would say something to the effect of Disc reader error. Consult your dealer or Cannot read disc. Consult your dealer. But then, the next day it would work again. Upon receiving the error messages, I investigated the navigation deck (in the trunk), and I noticed it was EXTREMELY hot to the touch. Over time, the failure (error) happened more and more frequently. (Note: when the system wasn't working, the only thing that I was able to access through the onscreen Navigation System was the Trip Computer...everything else was disabled [greyed out]). I had replaced the old CD with the updated when Honda would notify me that the new update was available. Finally, the navigation system stopped working entirely (this was around 2016...so, it was approximately 7 or 8 years old (remember, I bought this car brand new). I am a stickler about taking my car in to the dealership for regular maintenance (you can ask First Texas Honda in Austin, Texas). When I asked the service team about my navigation system, I was basically told that there was nothing that could be done...the repair costs would be exorbitant...upwards of $4,000. Seriously? I was told that I might be able to find something after-market, which I quickly declined. Apparently, so much of the vehicle itself is tied to the navigation system, it would be nearly impossible to install a new system and calibrate everything. What a HUGE disappointment. I recently went out on a limb and purchased the map update (just praying that it would miraculously, somehow, fix the problem). Sadly, when I ejected the old map disc, I heard grinding and churning noised coming from the deck. The disc would not come out of the deck. I tried repeatedly, until the disc finally came out...along with a part of the deck that had deteriorated over time (flat, round piece of metal). Needless to say, I knew that I was out of luck at this point. This car has never been wrecked or driven roughly. I am a proud and fussy owner of my car (I need it to last me, because a new car payment is not within my budget). The bottom line is this: I believe that the navigation deck is of poor quality, and it over heats with time, degrading and deteriorating the components within it. It can't be repaired, and I suppose I will never again purchase another car with on-board navigation."
