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.
To say the least, having paid $30,000 for a new car that leaks oil is devastating. I had to drive over 100 miles to the dealership to have it fixed. They ended up replacing all the seals on the engine, which fortunately was covered under the warranty. There should be some type of compensation for the consumer's time and aggravation. Large corporations don't mind taking your money upon the sale, but don't expect a thank you or help afterward, it is just not going to happen. So far, I am not impressed in the least bit by your Honda product.
