Starter not working all the time. Will not start engine. Constantly doing oil changes. Battery replacements too often. Won-??t start.

- Converse, TX, USA

There are thousands for Honda Accord owners who bought model 2014 onwards have engine oil burning issue and mostly they ask to replace PCV Valve which does not make any difference even though you replace it or not. There are so many YouTube videos on it. I am also facing same issue. I bought used pre owned car, if I knew this issue I would have never bought that car. I have to change engine oil after every 1500 miles. Normally it-??s best to replace engine oil after 3000-5000 miles. I will request NHTSA to take some action against Honda. It-??s not for just my safety it-??s about safety for all Honda Accord owners. Please do something

Honda accord 2014 exl 4door 60k miles Engine Starter issue going on. It looks like many 2014 accord users are having this issue.. My car has having intermediate startup cranks almost every day and starts after few attempts. I would like to file a compliant against this alleged defect for honda engine starter defect.

- Clovis, CA, USA

The car does not start consistently. I have replaced the battery two times and the starter. I will turn the key and the engine will not crank over, sometimes it will start up 30 seconds or a minute later after I attempt a couple of times. The Honda mechanic forum is stating that this is a very common problem from owners of this ninth gen Honda Accord.

At 104,000 miles the starter on my 2.4 liter Honda engine began intermittently operating. I ordered a $200 starter online that arrived with damaged connectors and had to take my car to a Honda repair facility. They acquired another starter for $300 and installed it for a total bill of $544.85. As a disabled retiree, I purchased the Honda Accord due to its reputation for reliability. I need it to be reliable transportation to take me and my wife to doctors appointments and the like, making it a serious health and safety issue for us. I do synthetic oil and filter changes every 5000 miles and rotate my tires at the same time. My plan was to keep this vehicle until the "wheels fell off" but now I'm questioning my decision and Honda's reputation. The original Honda starter core was sent back to AutoZone where the replacement starter was obtained. There were no lights or indicators of a pending problem with the starter malfunctioning.

- Knoxville, TN, USA

Unknown. Just off of warranty, vehicle has started to exhibit intermittent failure to crank/ start on an increasing number of occasions. Could leave driver stranded. Turning key 180 degrees, using valet key, and waiting for various periods of time has allowed the vehicle to start ( so far). Research shows Honda replaces starters on 2013 and earlier Accords under a recall, but claims problem has been cured in 2014 and later Accords. An online search for 2014 and later Accords show the problem persists and has not been corrected.

While on a 400 mile round trip visit to family, after stopping for a rest room break, my Honda Accord would not start after engaging the push button starter. After a few more attempts, the push button ignition finally engaged. While visiting out of state, I contacted a Honda dealer there and was told there was no recall on the starter assembly for my 2014 Honda Accord and that dealer wanted $850 to replace the starter assembly. I declined to pay that outrageous price, taking my chances to return home, a 200 mile trip. During that trip, there were multiple instances where, after stopping for either gas or a rest room break, it took multiple attempts to start the vehicle. At one point, after driving through a fast food drive thru, I pulled into a nearby parking lot to park out of the way to eat my food but kept the engine running to ensure I would get back home. After returning home, I made an appointment with a reputable local automobile repair shop and while waiting for a replacement starter to be installed, the repair technician came out to me to show me the faulty starter assembly he had removed from my Accord. The original unit removed from my Accord actually came out of the engine in two pieces. It had separated in the middle of the housing. I asked the technician how had it stayed together while it was in the engine and he said he didn't know. (2 photos attached). At the time of this repair, there were less than 45,000 on this 2014 Honda Accord (thus also on the starter assembly). The repair was made using a generic starter assembly from Napa on 04/22/2021 and I was charged $583.98 total for parts and labor. It's outrageous that such an expensive part didn't last longer than 45,000. I had a 2000 Honda CR-V that I sold with 203,000 mile on it and it still had its original starter. Granted, different type to ignition then..

Vtc actuator needs to be replaced. On a cold start after it's been sitting, vehicle makes a loud grinding noise and has rough idle.

- Minneapolis, MN, USA

Whenever I start the vehicle, it makes a grinding noise several times before starting. Took it to the dealership I bought it from and I was told it was the starter and the torque converter. I have changed the starter 4 times in span of 3 years period I have had the car. I have taken it to several mechanic and each of them tell me it's the starter and the flywheel. Took it to the dealer to fix it and told them about the flywheel issue. The tech told me it was a problem known to 2013-2015 Honda Accord. I asked the dealers to agree to fixing the starter and any other issues relating to the starter because they know what the issue is but the refused. I have 2 of my colleagues with the same 2014 Honda Accord with the same issues. The issue started 2 months after purchasing the car in November 2018 at a Honda dealership.

The car has been burning excessive engine oil ever since I purchased it. There is no oil leakage as I have never seen any oil drops where I park it. I have to constantly check the oil level and add more. I bought this car from Honda dealership as pre owned certified. I spoke to Honda dealership once about the issue and they said if the car burns 1 quart of oil in 1000 miles then we consider it excessive oil burning. At the time my car was still under warranty. They just gave me this unrealistic oil burning rate so they don't have to honor the warranty. Now my car is not under warranty and the problem of course persists.

I bought a 2014 Honda Accord sport brand new the car started burning oil at 55.000 miles this is a well maintain car only change oil at the dealer and have extended warranty, brought it to the dealer, this is my third time the oil is low close to 1000 miles and every time I go to them they charge me for an oil change, so im waiting to see when when I go back this time what they are going to tell me, the problem is /oil consumption,

The vehicle is taking longer to go into engine mode. It's lagging

- Shirley, NY, USA

On my 2014 Accord sport (2.4 L, I4 engine), there appears to be 'excessive oil consumption' since about 50K miles. I have to add about 3/4 quart to 1 quart of oil every 2000-2500 miles. I bought this car new and perform all the maintenance on time at the Honda dealer. I take extremely good care of this car and have never missed a service. It never had this issue before hitting 50K miles. It currently has 77K miles and I just had to add 3/4 quart of oil again after only 2000 miles. I've even replaced the PCV valve with no luck. My question is, why isn't there a recall for this issue similar to the recall related to 2008-2012 Accord" I think many other Honda owners are having the same problem. By the way, I've seen Honda's stance that up to 1 quart of oil every 1000 miles is acceptable, I absolutely disagree.. it's entirely unacceptable for a car with such low miles to burn this much oil. I worry how this car will do as it gets older. At this rate, who's responsible for the catalytic converter when it goes bad due to the oil consumption"

- Westfield, IN, USA

I've a 2014 Honda Accord ex and it burns oil constantly. I always took my car to the dealer for an oil change every since I bought it new until two year 2020 until do my own oil change and realize I burn a quart of oil within a month. So the dealer has change my motor oil all this year without telling me until my warranty is over and I sure they know and hear complained about this issues already they should do a recalled on this car do to safety reason. Thanks,

Engine started leaking oil. Major engine gaskets and seals replacement was required. Car was repaired under warranty

- Howell, NJ, USA

I have a 2014 Honda Accord 2.4L ex-L with only 40,000 miles. About two months ago, I started experiencing an intermittent starting problem with the push start button. When I depress the brake pedal and push the start button, all of my 'normal' dash lights come on as if I put it in start mode and I hear one click, but the engine does not turn over. While this does not happen all the time, it happens more than it starts on the first try. When this happens, it can take between 2-6 tries before it finally starts. I replaced the battery 6 months ago, but the issue came recently and is still ongoing. I had the alternator and starter both tested by numerous places and both are testing good.
