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 2014 Honda Accord seats are uncomfortable. Uncomfortable seats has been a significant complaint with the Accord since the 2008 model year.

install foam under the plastic rear deck (1 reports)
When turning your stereo up even half way, with some songs there is a very noticeable rattle in the rear deck cover by the rear speakers. Clearly Honda invested no time designing this as they would have discovered that there is insufficient space between the plastic rear deck cover and car frame underneath. I took my car to a local dealer who acknowledged the issue and installed some foam in there to reduce the rattling. This helped quite a bit but there is still some rattle back there.
