CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013-2014 Honda Accord is showing signs of an electrical problem with the starter failing soon after the 36K mile warranty expires. It's compounded by reports that the OEM battery doesn't have sufficient amps to start the V6 reliably after a year or two.
For now we are rating this problem with the "Beware" seal because it's occurring so soon after the 36K mile warranty expires. The upshot is when your Accord won't start, that's never good, but especially bad when it's just a few years old.
Also once again, owners are complaining that the 2013 Honda Accord seats are uncomfortable. Uncomfortable seats has been a significant complaint with the Accord since the 2008 model year.
The ring on the dash that measures if you are cruising or accelerating goes from green to white back to green back to white again and again and it wasn't my driving. It was almost like a flashing back and forth.
I think this is a totally useless instrumentation but the car came with it. With my other electrical system issues, I see this as another sign of a faulty electrical system.
Am concerned that one day, it will stop working altogether.
