Honda Accord

"Sticking caliper, replaced along with brake disc."

"rear brake calipers froze up"

"I had to replace everything on the brakes on the back left side of the car. It was an expensive repair"

"Seized shortly after a brake job and said it wasn't their problem"

"rear calipers stuck thus causing back brake pads to wear out. New brakes and rotors were installed by dealer. Calipers were not replaced. Within a year the back calipers stuck again causing brake pads and rotors to be replaced again. No problems since."

"Brake pads were aftermarket rather than Honda parts"

"Brake pads were worn...replaced by mechanic"

"Replaced front brakes for the first time at 95,000 miles, rears at 105,000."

"Pads worn and needed to be replaced cr"

"Brake pads and rotors were replaced due to usage. I don't consider this to be a defect."

"The dealer's certification seemed to overlook wear on the disc brakes"

"replace pads, turn rotors?"

"Brakes needed a lot of pressure to stop"

"At a regular inspection, the dealer found that one of the rear brake pads was prematurely worn. As far as I know, the reason was corrected and the pads replaced"

"Eats brake pads on top of the noise. The brakes have been bad since new, and though aftermarket brembo rotors and pads have helped it still makes noise. It goes through pads every 20k miles"

"Within 6 months after buying new car, I had to replace rear brake pads. I had the same problem with my 2008 Honda Accord (which I traded in). I don't know how the rear brakes are worn out faster than the front. It makes no sense to me at all"

"this was probably due to the rotor problems."

"We park the car outside and did not drive it for several weeks because of COVID-19. The brake pads rusted and the car would not moved. We had it towed to the mechanic who replaced brake pads on all four wheels."

"Brakes required servicing one week after purchase. Rear Brake pads had to be replaced"

"Rear brakes wear faster than front"

"I feel unusually short brake pad life, I've had to have 2 brake jobs each on each axle, and the car only has 110000 miles on it"

"this car has gone through 3 sets of honda front rotors. rotors are warping badly. brake pads had to be changed too. seems like a thing with all new cars...rotors warping."

"pulsation from warping Rotors and uneven tire wear even after alingments. dealer cant seem to solve problems."

"Steering wheel vibration during braking is caused by the rotors getting warped from overheating due to the rotors being too small for the weight of the vehicle. Poor design."

"Replaced rear pads and rotors at 78500 miles"

"The rotors wore unevenly causing pulsation and uneven braking"

"Shortly after a brake service they warped"

"Original Honda rotors are warped. They've already been turned twice. Dealership indicates Honda rotors are made from 3 different types of metals, so all three types of metals expand and contract differently, and warp very easily. Recommended solution was to have another front brake service, and replace rotors with non-Honda parts"

"This car has terrible rotors. always warping. Must change often along with pads. all OEM parts. i am on my 3rd set of Rotors"

"front rotors warped and caused a pulsation when appling the brakes. Failed first time at less than 30000 miles which was covered under warrenty. Second set, oem replacements by the dealer, failed in less that 25000. 3 set were aftermarket and lasted 90000 miles. Just replaced the aftermarket rotors a 165000."

"Rotors are undersized so heat buildup causes the rotor to permanently warp, causing vibration during routine braking."

"i have experienced problems with the rotors for the past several years. Im either having to have the rotors turned or buy new ones. this has gotten old."

"this car goes through Rotors and brake shoes. every brand warps and shakes wheels. the bearings failed too."

"The rear brake rotors had to be repaired at about 30-40K miles. This was some kind of known issue w/the Accord, and was either fully or partially covered by Honda. It wasn't a huge issue, but we were surprised by the issue, as we had not had problems with prior Honda models."

"Rotors warp quickly, 20000 miles"

"when not driven for a couple hours, the rotors grind the first couple of times braking"

"Corrosion and rust on rear rotors"

"Rotors prematureluy warp after about 20,000 miles of driving."

"on my third set of rotors. they keep bending / warping. every change demands pad changes too."

"Brakes on this car are horrid. It sounds like a train pulling into the station when the car hasn't had the brake dust washed off weekly. The car stops, it just sounds like it won't. And it doesn't exactly inspire confidence when you're questioning the brakes"

"Breaks replaced still squeaked aftee"

"I was in a jam and as a result used a Firestone Service Center for my brakes. They are open on Sundays. The brakes have squeaked since installation"

"After 70K mi with new rear brakes, even with 3 trips to shop nothing quiets squeaky brakes."

"First couple applications when brakes are cold right front sounds like metal on metal (grinding). Also, in heavy use such as a long down hill the right front vibrates very badly and begins to fade after it heats up"

"brakes squeak"

"The brakes on the car constantly and consistently since new have made noise. The dealer did nothing at all and claimed it was 'normal.' But magically when our mechanic replaced the pads and rotors with Brembo, nothing. Brakes on this car are terrible"

"Water in trunk; dealer caulked body beneath trunk lid. Same area may have been repaired previously"

"noticed a leak on upper left corner of windshield/roof when it rains ...."

"Air leaks around drivers door when driving. noise downs out radio and conversation. seal deteriorated."

"Both front and back passenger side window seals had to be replaced. The vehicle only had around 40,000 miles it"

"When driving the car during very heavy rain water leaked into the trunk. We did not notice for a week or more. By this time there was a terrible smell and we had to rip out the carpet and dry it out. After reading comments online this appears to be a common problem with this model of Honda Accord."

"Outside the RT door, the vinyl had a crack in it. Had it replaced twice under the warranty. I will have it replaced again when I see the dealer. My 2001 Accord Honda had a thicker vinyl, and that never broke!"

"When we go through a car wash, the interior cabin air filter gets wet because of a leak"

"The back seat had somehow become loose and rattled when the car went over a bump"

"The wheel bearing on the front driver side was bad and causing the car to shake when braking and making a very loud noise"

"Car makes a screeching noise when starting, runs fine"

"Squeak around rear speaker since purchase"

"The springs on my trunk lid broke. (You had to manually raise it and manually hold it open.) I got it fixed, but then had an REALLY annoying rattle most of the time. When I'd start over to get it seen to, the rattle would disappear, only to reappear later. Finally got it in when it was rattling, and some little gizmo had been broken off. They fixed it."

"There a rattle underneath the car. At around 2000 rpm it starts then will stop at around 2800 rpm. It has been impossible to locate the source"

"The root cause was a loose bearing."

"The rear deck rattle, common on 8th gen Accords. Honda has a TSB out addressing this, but it is not effective. Dealership won't even look at the problem without wanting hundreds of dollars to take the rear seat out of the car."

"center armrest squeaks. small rattle in dash. hard plastics are easily scuffed on doors"

"On a Cold start, between 40 to 60 MPH, the car Vibrates in the front end.The Vibration only last for about the 1st. 2 or 3 miles of driving but only between the speed of 40 to 60 MPH., at a slower speed there is NO Vibration. Honda states its a "FLAT"

"Noise coming from the trunk, road noise"

"The door lock squeaks when it engages and there has been an underdash rattle that has never been fixed"

"rear deck self rattles constantly"

"There is a regular squeek in the forward interior trim above the windshield"

"The trunk springs rattle. The dealer put foam inbetween and it helped"

"Clicking noise coming from trunk narea"

"Rattles in the dashboard come and go frequently. Most noisy road noise, especially driving on highways, so much that I hate the car for it and want a "cone of silence" in the interior"

"Rear speakers rattled"

"On braking, there is a distinct and disconcerting rattle about 10 % of the time. We're pretty certain it doesn't affect performance, but it's very pronounced and hasn't been accurately diagnosed by our dealership's mechanic"

"Ratting with moonroof"

"Something was wrong with the back seat. There was a noise when the car went over a bump. The problem was fixed."

"brakes make crunching sound when backing up"

"The car is very noisy now. Dealer has no solution . CR recommended quietest tires have not helped"

"an ongoing problem at highway speeds, more wind/road noise than I feel there should be. Prolem has existed pretty much since we bought the car (2011)"

"Lots of noise"

"Wind noise at highway speeds"

"My 2000 truck with 360000 miles has less wind noise than the accord, it is as if I was sitting on a motorcycle. Road noise is just terrible in the accord, it always has been since it was new."

"The car does not have a quiet cabin. It's very difficult to hear a call on speakerphone while driving. Also the radio has to be very loud to drown out the road noise. When talking with passengers we have to talk loud to be heard."

"Poorly insulated, wind noise"

"Wind and road noise from tires"

"Sun roof and doors have wind noise"

"This accord is more wind noise come from front left driver side , right of small speaker rear view outside mirror , more noise come from auto rerpair did not do right thing .They try to do some but still bad"

"This is the loudest road car I've been in for a long time. Noise from air and from road service. I used this car to travel weekly, and it has been good for that purpose; however, little or no engineering went into making this car quiet on the road"

"Sun Roof Air deflector makes noise at highway speeds. Bumps and rattles above 65mph"

"Wind and road noise is supposed to be suppressed with Active Noise Cancellation. Honda has repeatedly not been able to figure out how to fix this so the car is very noisy now."

"Afteracknolaging problem, replacing pump 3 times said they could not fix problem and would not do any more repairs to fix it"

"Rear shock failure"

"This is the first car I have ever had to have the shocks and struts go out. Front bearings went at the same time and only 84K. Then I read on CR review other people had Honda’s with shock problems and my sister had two Civics where the dealer made price adjustment to repair both Civics. No such luck here. I am disappointed Honda sold a product and has not fixed it on their own."

"Actually no problems that I was aware of. The problem was diagnosed by the Honda dealer service department."

"Leaking strut - had to be replaced at 32000 miles"

"Had to have the left rear strut replaced"

"car rear end hops around a lot. busy ride on nyc roads car rocks diagonally on hwy ruts, rubberyride"

"The dealer diagnosed the problem. I did not experience any symptoms."

"Worn out, ride was rough, replacement fixed problem. Able to do it for 50% of what the dealer wanted with genuine Honda parts from on-line dealer."

"i replaced both let and right side springs in two seperate consecutive tripe because I was told there was too much play in them to pass state inspection"

"Steering rack has been replaced 4 times. Makes unusual noises, and steering wheel is affected as well. Dealer has replaced 4 times (under extended warranty), and it continues to come back. Very last time dealer finally used Honda OEM parts. Problem came back, but took longer this time"

"Needed to replace steering rack/pinion assembly due to failure"

"The steering rack started leaking and required replacement. This seemed very strange for a Honda with only 90000 miles on it."

"Within the first 3 years of having the car the power steering column started leaking. Honda told us it would be $1600 to replace."

"Broken rack"

"Car was exhibiting a whine coming out of bends. I suspected a small leak in a seal somewhere in the power steering system - but the dealership determined that the power steering rack itself was leaking in several places and needed to be replaced."

"Part of the axle had to be replaced and re greased. It still shakes"

"Ball joint deterioration due to rubber booth seal cracking."

"Had to have them replaced for the second time in 2 1/2 years"

"the dealer misaligned tires. ruined 3 Michelin tires. ball joints and tire rods weren't diagnosed as bad. vibrations,"

"Tires worn down and loud noise when driving"

"Wheel bearing went bad. I knew this could be a problem based on articles in Consumer Reports"

"My drivers side front wheel bearing went out at around 40,000 miles. I thought this was way too soon for a wheel bearing to go out"

"Wheel bearing needed replacing"

"Dealer claimed it is normal for wheel bearings to go bad. Checked with others and found this to be a lie."

"replaced both front wheel bearings. loud singing noises emitted. both failed"

"Noticed noise that changed frequency as speed changed. Evaluation found a bad passenger side front wheel bearing had gone bad."

"front wheel bearing replaced.... was making a bad grinding noise"

"The car sounded as if it did not change gears (remained in the lower gear); the mechanic had to replace the bearings"

"Loud/worn wheel bearings. Passenger side replaced under warranty. Driver side showed same issue after warranty expired, needs to be replaced"

"Rt front wheel bearing started to make noise..repaired under warranty"

"wheel bearing failure on right front of vehicle"

"The drivers side rear wheel bearing failed. It was making a grinding sound and was replaced by the dealer under warranty"

"Driver side front wheel bearing started to make noise. Covered under the warranty, the dealer repared the faulty item within a few hours"

"Front wheel bearing went bad"

"Right-front wheel bearing had to be replaced due to noise."

"The dealer discovered a problem with the left rear wheel bearing during an oil change. It was replaced under warranty."

"Front bearing needed replacing"

"I had to replace the wheel bearings on the front driver side wheel. The previous year I had to replace the passenger side wheel bearings. The car was too new (less than 6 years) and had low mileage (under 60,000) when the first wheel bearings had to be replaced."
