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.
I bought a new Honda Accord 2013 LX expecting it to have a nice ride. But frequently when I brake to a stop the car jerks. This is very annoying. I went back to the dealer, they checked it out and said nothing is wrong with the car. I have read in several forums for this car and other people have the same problem. Some people say that their car has a smooth ride. I am one of the unlucky ones that has this problem and the dealer won't fix it.
