When I drive my car it stalls and hesitates when accelerating and driving. There is a recall for this involving the short box and it can cause an accident or if the old leaks it can catch on fire. The recall is printed on the internet. I will email it to you later as I do nat have it with me. This has happened every month and many times every month. They will not fix it and they will not call me back. I want a new car under the lemon law. Please help. Others need to know there is a danger here but this is top secret.
2015 Honda Accord engine complaints
Page 5 of 5: complaints 101 to 110 of 110, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Engine misfires at highway speeds with the tachometer surging 1,000 RPM's with each misfire. You cannot maintain your speed and therefore are not able to safely drive on the highway. Took it to a dealer who stated someone else had recently been in with the same problem, but could not recreate the probelm on a test drive. They reset the computer to factory settings, but didn't hear back yet from the owner if it resolved the issue. They didn't reset my car's computer, however. My problem appears to match that of the federal safety agency id number 10838521.
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.
With 800 miles on the vehicle, it stalled at 65 MPH. Took it to the dealer, they could not recreate the problem. I told them I did not want the car back until the problem was fixed. After 10 days, we reluctantly took the car back. The dealer said they reported the problem to honda, but I really don't know if they did. They said "driver error". In late november, we received a safety recall letter saying our car might stall at highway speeds. We had the software updated, the 4 days later the car stalled again. Thankfully in a parking lot. It took 10 minutes to get it started. Right away, we took it to the dealer, removed our license plates, and informed the service manager we would not drive it again. He sais it was "driver error". The next week we traded the car for a new ford fusion. It cost us several thousand dollars to do this, but we said it wasn't worth the chance that it would stall again. The dealer and maybe honda did not step up to the plate on this matter. They put it all on me, the consumer. Thanks for listening.
While driving in stop and go traffic, either on the highway or on residential streets, occasionally, the vehicle will hesitate. This hesitation will last 1-3 seconds and then the vehicle will accelerate as expected. This hesitation can cause a dangerous situation since the vehicle will not move as expected. The vehicle was purchased new, and this has occurred since its purchase. I've taken it to the honda dealer, but they can not duplicate it since it is an intermittent issue. Their response was to stop using the econ button. I have stopped using this feature, but the issue has persisted, (although it has lessened in occurrences). The issue can occur 1-2 times per week, with the last occurrence on 12/8/15. There is a technical service bulletin on the vehicle 15-036, which may or may not be related, but last time at the dealer, they couldn't find the tsb, so the software update likely has not been made to the vehicle.
I just purchased the car on july 2015. My car has 5,350 miles. I notice when I drive the vehicle it takes a lot of energy to adjust to the speed almost like a push back/stall. There is also rattling when I drive that I can't attribute to any personal items.
Intermittently, but always upon acceleration (could be pulling onto the highway from a stopped position, merging/speeding up to get on the highway or pass another vehicle, or starting to move when the light turns green) the car will fall flat with no power. It doesn't stall, just doesn't respond to the gas pedal. Most times, happens in second gear. Releasing the gas pedal and then pressing it again most times resolves the problem. Sometimes, it takes a few tries. This is a very dangerous problem, and I have had many motorists swerve around me or blow the horn at me because I can't get the car moving fast enough. I just spent $30,000 on this new car, and the dealership cannot duplicate the problem so they're sending me on my way with a vehicle that's a potential death trap.
