My 2014 honda accord is experiencing excessive oil consumption, lack of engine power, engine stalling issues and overall unsafe drivability conditions. I took the vehicle to albany honda on 5/4/2020 for them to diagnose and repair the issue but they could not duplicate the problems I was experiencing so they recommended an oil change and gasket valve cover replacement and charged me $262.08 for the service. I paid for the service and drove my vehicle off the lot with the severe issues still present. After 30 minutes of driving the vehicle the engine struggled to get up hills, began jerking, jolting violently and I was almost hit by oncoming traffic, I immediately called serve department back at honda and told them about the incident and that I was bringing the car back and for them to do a thorough inspection and diagnosis of the vehicle as it had become a safety hazard and I didn't feel safe driving it. The next day the tells me that they 'test drove' the vehicle again and that the mechanic noticed a 'slight surge' but still could not pinpoint the issue. They then recommended a host of completely unrelated expensive repairs that would cost me $600 to $700; money that absolutely no one has to spare during this nationwide pandemic. Frustrated and disappointed I ended up taking my vehicle to another certified repair shop and they diagnosed the issue as p0300'as an engine misfire. The shop refused to work on the vehicle because they said it's a serious issue and that honda should be responsible to repair my vehicle because they problem is a tsb bad piston rings that honda needs to address.

On friday, 11/15/19, my car notified me to check my fuel cap, so I checked it and closed it until the hearing the clicking sound. On saturday11/16/19, the engine light came on; I'd been smelling a strong smell of gas for about two weeks, and I thought it was coming from inside of my home, I had someone to go and check my home and found nothing wrong there. It wasn't until I was pumping gas into my car (turned off), and when it reached full, the handle clicked, and I could hear the gas pouring out onto the ground.

Driver entered car after grocery shopping. Car was put into drive and light accelerator pressure was applied appropriate for moving out of the parking space. Car proceeded to advance slowly at first but suddenly accelerated. The amount of rapid and sudden acceleration was inconsistent and disproportionate with the amount of pressure and effort that was applied to the accelerator when advancing from the parking space. Three (3) pedestrians were either hit directly by the car or the resultant debris from the accident. Two (2) required medical care/hospitalization. Additionally there was significant property damage to the grocery store and vehicle. The cost to repair damage to the vehicle has been appraised at about $9,500. The extent and nature of injuries to pedestrians and damage to building has not yet been determined. The 2014 honda accord according to public the federal safety agency database reporting has experienced at least 17 sudden acceleration events (sae) attributed to failed vehicle speed control with strikingly similar circumstances. According to the federal safety agency public reportings honda has been notified of some of these 17 saes. The saes are not limited to just 2014 honda accords. It has been reported in other model years in 9th generation accords. The 2014 honda accords are part of the 9th generation honda accords from (2013 to 2017) in north america. Request the federal safety agency investigate sudden acceleration events in 9th generation honda accords (2013 to 2017) in north america. There are significant number of instances of sae to observe a clear and present pattern to warrant an in-dept investigation. There have been prior instances of honda recalling vehicles due to sae.

The honda accord 2014 is consuming tons of engine oil. Having issues with "engine oil burning" where evidence of evaporated engine oil is on the engine and is getting consumed rapidly. I have to refill a quart for every 1500 miles. This means 3 quarts added before the next oil change. This was discovered around nov 2017 when the oil indicator light went off (~44,000 miles). After gasket replacements and two oil changes, I am still having issues and am at 50,400 miles. My maintenance has always been on time with regular oil changes at around 4500-5000 miles.

One morning while driving my daughter to daycare I noticed the smell of gasoline. I took my car to the mechanic and he diagnosed the issue as a faulty high pressure fuel line (the line from the gas tank to the front of the car). Upon receiving the replacement part the mechanic noted that the new fuel line has an additional insulator that prevents this exact issue. I've seen this reported elsewhere as "possible rodent damage" but this is clearly an issue honda is aware of but not addressing via a recall.

My car has been to honda twice for the same problem. The first incident was june 20th at 5pm at whole foods in phoenix. The car would turn over then die. The next morning I took it to honda (it started and drove). I picked it up at 5pm, they stated they could find nothing wrong with the car. As I'm sitting in the car at honda the car died and wouldn't start. The next day they told me it was the starter and replaced it and I picked up the car friday june 23rd. The car was fine until sunday around 3pm at safeway on phoenix where the car would start and then die. I took an uber home and scheduled a tow. When I got back to safeway the car started and I drove it home. Monday morning june 26 I took it to my local mechanic who diagnosed the fuel pump to be bad after two days. I towed it back to honda on june 28th to have the fuel pump changed under warranty. They had to order the part and I did not get my car back until july 8th. On my way to work tuesday july 11th the car died while on the freeway interchange between i10w and i17n and was forced to the side of the rode (there's barely a shoulder) and wait for a tow as the car would no start. I was towed to showcase honda where the car is now. This last incident was more than just an inconvenience it was completely unsafe. This is the third time they have had the car and I have almost no confidence they are capable of figuring out what is wrong with this car (that's under warranty) and I honestly don't feel safe driving that car any longer.

I was pulling in to a parking spot at 2 MPH or less, and when I put my foot on the brake to stop, the engine surged and the car lurched forward out of my control, across the concrete barrier, over a walkway and into the wall of a restaurant, where it stalled. I had to restart the car to reverse it away from the crash. Fortunately no-one was hurt although there was considerable damage to the front of the car and the wall of the restaurant. This also happened in march 2014. I was pulling into a parking spot when the engine roared, the car lurched forward, and I crashed across a path and through a wooden fence. The damage then was $10k. The car was taken to the dealership's collision center, which reported only that "no defects in materials or factory workmanship were found." there are at least 11 other reports of this problem from other people in this string, and it is clearly a very dangerous fault in the 2014 honda accord which needs to be investigated. There should be a recall before someone is seriously hurt or killed.

My 2014 honda accord coupe has 33,900+ miles and for the past year, I have had it in to fox honda in grand rapids four times for the same problem. The problem is, that it stutters often when accelerating and twice, the engine has stalled out and had to be restarted. Fox motors plugs a computer into the car and they tell me that there are no reports of any problems and they can't fix what they can't detect. Two days ago, while driving to the va hospital in battle creek, I pulled out into traffic on anderson rd/street and the car stalled and a fedex semi had to drive onto shoulder and onto a yard to keep from hitting us and if he hadn't, we might have been killed. I took the car into fox motors and they are standing pat, refusing to help us. They did offer to buy the car back from me, but for a terrible price and I asked them what they would do with it and they dealership manager said that they would resell it with confidence and I refused to sell it to them if they were going to resell it with a service certification. How dare them do that! I don't know what to do next.

My car surges while driving occasionally and surges while stopped. I was sitting at a stop sign waiting on traffic to pass by and my car surged so hard that it pushed it out a couple inches. I took it to the dealership but they can not find anything wrong. Read other complaints here and my car isn't the only one doing this. I have a 3 year old and no longer feel safe in my car.

Engine cranks but fails to start, or starts sluggishly with rough idle after a few seconds of cranking in cold weather. I believe this to be a fuel pump pressure problem.

We smelled fuel when driving to church on a sunday. Thinking it was some leftover fuel splashed, we continued but then the smell became really intense. So we turned around and returned toward home. Upon entering our street, suddenly the vehicle stalled totally out and came to a stop in middle of the road! We rolled it over to the side, it is a neighborhood street; then started car again and went slowly downhill to the house; car stalled again just outside our house, we could not get it into driveway, very strong fuel smell; we pushed it to get it parked on the street. Tried again later that day to start the car but it wouldn't start, very strong fuel smell and gasoline leaking onto the street. Car towed to honda dealer next day; after technicians examined the car they concluded "rodent damage" to the fuel line leading to the fuel tank. They would not cover any of the damage as it "wasn't manufacturer defect." also called national honda customer service and opened a case; but they would not agree either to cover anything. We were very lucky we weren't on a highway or interstate when this suddenly stalled out, we could have been rear ended as the car suddenly stopped with no warning! The fuel line last portion leading into the tank is made of rubber, it is not metal or hard plastic like the rest of the line and therefore subject to something sharp puncturing it--which is a defective design in our view. The new part they put on is same as the old, the same thing could happen again. There is no shield under the fuel tank area to keep things from underneath getting up in there. Honda should at least cover the cost of the repair (we paid $684.09), car is almost brand new. And we believe this is a safety hazard, car can shut off with no warning. Thank you for your help.

My 2014 honda accord sport with only 5687 miles on it suddenly accelerated as I was pulling into a parking space. I was driving approximately 5 MPH. I had to slam on the brakes to avoid driving over the concrete barrier. I have recently noticed a strong gasoline smell upon starting the vehicle, which dissipates after a few minutes. This was an extremely scary experience.

Similar to the federal safety agency complaints #10619205, #10607907, #10655300, #10630708, and #10628501. Driving my vehicle on interstate, going approximately 70 MPH. The vehicle came to a large incline and began accelerating, and all of a sudden, the entire vehicle shuddered violently and lost all acceleration, and the malfunction indicator lamp came on and was blinking. It felt like the vehicle had shifted out of gear, and it could not get back in gear. After over 10 minutes, I restarted the vehicle, and the light did not come back on. Although I could feel that pushing on the gas pedal did not feel the same, and it felt as if the vehicle was hesitating and struggling to switch gears up and accelerate. On 8/29/2014, again on the interstate, while again in cruise control (eco boost was not active), going approximately 70 MPH, accelerating up a large incline, the vehicle again, all of a sudden, shuddered violently and lost all acceleration, and the malfunction indicator lamp came on and was blinking. It felt like the vehicle had shifted out of gear, and it could not get back in gear. Approximately 70 miles later, without cruise control, going approximately 65 MPH, accelerating up a large incline, the vehicle again, all of a sudden, shuddered violently and lost all acceleration. The malfunction indicator lamp came on and was blinking and the dashboard lit up with a message stating ?fcw system failed.? The fcw indicator light was lit on my dashboard, as well as the ldw light, the low tire pressure light, the electric power steering (eps) system indicator, and the vehicle stability assist (vsa) system indicator. It felt like the vehicle had shifted out of gear and it could not get back in gear or it could not accelerate. After 3 service calls, honda's response is only "cannot replicate, so there is no problem." there is obviously a serious problem.

My acceleration conditions/problems are identical to the federal safety agency id #10607907 & several others. Upon acceleration there is a severe hesitation to the point of almost stalling before it accelerates. At 15000 miles it appears to be getting worse. I was also told by a service rep this was computer controlled and not cable controlled as in the past. There definitely needs to be a fix to this as it is extremely dangerous pulling out in traffic.

Rodent damage to gas line, emission system, gas tank, and numerous other parts in an actively driven car (not stored). Leading to major gas leak (half a tank of gas in a duration of a standstill at red light) that placed drivers, passengers, pedestrians, and bystanders' life at risk. Would've lead to catastrophic ending if exhaust was hot. Gas spilled over stretch of 2 blocks, majority concentrating at intersection between heath and main st. Buffalo ny, which required the fire department to clean up. 911 was contacted for patches of flammable gasoline, which could have been ignited for numerous reasons leading to fatality. Reason for filing compliant. Vehicle which this happened to was a brand new 2014 honda accord purchased in june 2014. Repairs denied to be covered under warranty by honda dealership and america honda. Stating accident events like this is not covered, and is not a mechanical defect. Two conservative repair required, still not fixed. Dysfunctional car for a period of 6 days and counting. For rodent damage to occur in a brand new, actively driven car is indicative of obvious flaws in the design itself. 1. The machinery was exposed and unprotected. 2. The quality of built material was substandard for it to be damaged in a overnight situation by some "rodent" no larger than those that can fit in, and maneuver, within a confined space (seriously, I do not believe a rodent would randomly choose my car on the street to squeeze into and just bit a wire (numerous wires) without purposes of building a news or for food). 3. Disproportion between the price paid for the car and the quality of service which followed it.

From time to time when I press the accelerator, there is no immediate response. It may take another try to get the engine to respond. This mainly occurs when I need rapid acceleration from a stop to quickly get into traffic. I was told that the computer that controls the fly-by-wire accelerator takes time to coordinate with the computer that controls the CVT transmission. I have a safety concern with this.

The car is not getting the advertised gas mileage. I am only getting 21 to 22 mpg which stink. The car backs up when in park also. Please look into this please. The bottom under the car is not finished off. One other thing is that the backup camera is not very clear and you cannot see properly and have to get out of your car to check all the time. The back end is up too high.

I have a brand new 2014 honda accord sport. It hesitates when I accelerate from almost any speed. This is dangerous as I am nervous if I have to accelerate quickly for any reason, and getting on the highway can be tough too. I have seen others list this same issue on here, it's obviously a big problem with this car.

The car is experiencing a very hesitant acceleration upon initial acceleration to the point of almost stopping. This has continued now with just over 1,000 miles. Called the local honda dealer and was told by a maintenance representative that this problem has been reported to them, but there is no fix known. The problem is definitely a safety hazard as you can not depend on the car accelerating when needed. It does not have reliable acceleration from a stop. I was told by the maintenance representative that the car is a fly-by- wire and has no throttle cable any longer, but is controlled by the computer. He assured me there was no fix known nor did honda corp inform them of a problem or a fix. I feel very unsafe with this condition and have no feeling of reliability with the car's acceleration.

Filed Mar 23, 2014 · Engine, Fuel system · 1,800 miles · CA

Hesitation (unexpected acceleration) occurs intermittently at low speed. When the car is at a low speed and more power is needed and the accelerator is pressed there is no response initially; accelerator is then pressed more and the car then accelerates much more than was expected, resulting in a jerky, on/off type action. I believe this could cause an accident either when trying to merge into traffic or when trying to accelerate gently and having the car accelerate more than expected (in a parking lot or heavy slow traffic etc).
