2017 Honda Accord: grinding or squealing brakes

Filed Jul 16, 2023 · CA

The audio entertainment system malfunctions and randomly makes extremely loud static noises, squealing, beeping, thumping and bass sounds, from all speakers. These noises can't be controlled or stopped, as they happen even when the audio is turned off. The noises are extremely unpleasant, uncomfortable, and loud enough to cause hearing loss. The noises happen randomly and startle the driver which can lead to accidents. The only way to stop the noises is to turn off the car, requiring the driver to pull over suddenly when the noise becomes unbearable, and often must turn off the car when stopped at red lights which is very dangerous. The dealer confirmed that Honda is aware of this problem, that the only remedy is to completely replace the audio entertainment system, and that the units are on back order and unavailable. There are no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem, it just suddenly occurs. The noise began suddenly about two months ago, and has become increasingly louder and more frequent, to the point of happening every time the vehicle is operated and almost constantly while being operated.

I have been informed by the honda dealership that the factory continental tires placed on by honda, have a tread pattern that at low speeds makes the small noise I am hearing because it is loose from the wheel. That is a major safety concern, and this occurs when the vehicle is moving at a slow rate of speed you can hear a grinding from the wheels that is actually the tire. This problem needs to be addressed especially when honda has known about it.

Took car to honda dealer due to a grinding noise that's heard coming from my wheels when driving slowly. After looking at the car, the honda tech confirmed that it's the continental tires/honda sport model 19" wheel combo that's the issue. The bead on the factory tires used creates a rubbing sound that sounds like brakes grinding on the rotors. They said they have received many complaints about this since this model came out. I find it ridiculous that I was told this was ok and a known issue but nothing is being done about it. My lease ends soon and I was planning on buying the car but now probably not. I've been a honda driver for over 25 years...may have to move over to toyota.

While driving on a low speed, the front tires make a grinding noise. I have taken this in to the dealer twice and they stated it is a known issue with 2017 honda accord sport due to the tires not being the correct versions for this vehicle. The tires on my vehicle are the stock tires. Honda sold me a vehicle with the incorrect tires? I asked the dealership for the correct tires, and no tire will fix this issue. The rim and size since it is special 19 inches for this model, all 2017 honda accord sport have this same exact issue with no resolution. Honda knows this is an issue and no resolution to fix this. Grinding noise is loud especially when you drive through a neighborhood.

There is a loud rubbing noise that comes from the front wheels during a drive at low speeds . Also I can feel the grinding on the brake pedal and can hear the thumping noise when the car comes to a stop. I am concerned for my safety even more so now because I've noticed a lot of complaints about the same issue on this website. I have 12,000 miles on the car and have gone to my local honda dealership to have every scheduled maintenance service. A dealer said that honda was aware of the issue and it is associated with the beading of the tire. They say no fix this time and refuse to correct the issue, which is a safety issue. Wheels are 19 " factory original , and tires are factory original continental contiprocontact.

2017 honda accord se (special edition) with continental p235/40r19 tires suddenly with 22k miles began to make what seems to be a metal to metal noise at low speeds. Dealer stated tire bead is defective and tends to not seal with 19in factory rims. Apparently lowering the tire pressure from 51psi to 40ps/I makes /problem or noise go away. In my case the noise returned a week after dealership (honda world, westminster, ca) added tire bead sealant to front left driver side tire. I filed a complaint with honda corporate office in torrance, ca on 9/27/19 who reported tires were not covered in 36k warranty. This could also be a wheel/rim problem or other suspension problem. The rim and tires apparently are to heavy for car. Car was purchased new with these tires and rims from factory. It is rare that a tire will produce a metal on metal grinding noise. It is my expectation that the ntsb take this issue serious as it presents a serious issue if tire blows up or tire bead deforms. The dealer declined to fix problems and blamed issue on tires. They suggested I purchase another tire. One tire costs approximately $250.00 dollars. I'm in the process of contacting continental tire in south carolina to address issue also. Finally as you may be already aware this is a recurrent problem with other 2016-17 honda accord owner.

Loud grinding noise coming from front wheels on 2017 accord sport since almost new. Very noticeable at lower speeds. Honda dealer insisted grinding noise was from tire/rim combination and not items such as rotors, brakes, and/or wheel bearings, etc..

Wheels make rubbing/grinding noise. It's clear when drive at slow speed and next to a wall. It sounds like two metal parts rubbing/touching together.

I purchased my vehicle brand new april 2017. I am hearing a grinding, scratching noise coming from the front tires at low speeds (20 MPH). I have 24,000 miles on the car and have gone to my local honda dealership to have every scheduled maintenance service. I'm not sure why my vehicle is having this loud grinding noise, especially when I have my windows down. The performance of my brakes are also not functioning properly because I can feel the grinding on the brake pedal and can hear the thumping noise when I am coming to a stop. I am concerned for my safety even more so now because I've noticed a lot of complaints about the same issue on this website.

Passenger side day time running light stopped working approx 50k miles went to bigisland honda the parts department representative quoted me $2k $1500 for the light and $500 to install than soon after idler tensioner started making a weird grinding noise went online to research these 2 problems and both are very common problems with these model honda accords other than these problems this is a great car but I don't know if I'll ever buy a honda accord again basically left stranded with no help from the bigisland honda the dealership I bought it from. They basically told me I'm sorry it's way out of the warranty mileage and there's nothing they can do. I googled to see how much people has the same issue it's literally thousands of people with honda accords. Honda should step up there game or there going to loose a lot of customers over the next upcoming years. Honda of america please put a recall and fix these issues before it turns into a epidemic thanks.
