CarComplaints.com Notes: Some people think the seats in the 2015 Accord are uncomfortable, which is a problem that has plagued the Accord since 2008.
However our opinion is the seats have gotten better, & aside from that issue, the 2015 model year seems relatively trouble free.

Takara inflators didn't deploy when my vehicle was involved is a horrible front end accident involving injuries also ad for the electrical system problem my climate control never turns on and I've been back and forth at the Honda dealer service department and they can't seem to find the issue they told me its something to do with electrical
The vehicle was unable to start. Jumped the car with another car via battery cable then it started. Droved the car home about 4 mile drive. Checked battery voltage while the car is running and it reads 12.4 volts which is a low reading. Turned off the car and tried to restart and the car won't start. Charged the battery with a battery charger and restarted the car again this time the car started. Checked the battery voltage again while it running and this time battery voltage reads 14.5 volts. Some weird is happening with the charging system with this car. This happen 3 times already. It's intermittent problem that it won't start. It's not the battery and it's not the alternator.
I am unable to start vehicle when pressing push start button. The vehicle will start after approximately 10-15 times of trying. It started happening two weeks ago but vehicle would ignite with no more than two tries. Vehicle will now start after multiple times getting worst every day. Battery life was checked and no issues were found with battery. It happens every time I turn off vehicle and try to restart.
Starter grinding noise! asked Honda dealer about the grinding noise? they could not get the starter to make the noise(38,139 miles((5/2017)). Speed ahead 1 1/2 years. I put 2 starters and a new battery(2/19). Still having grinding issues(51,326 miles). Called american Honda Corp. To see about any recalls.they wanted a Honda dealer to diagnose complaint. Just got back from dealer(2-16-2019). The Honda dealer told me about a service bulletin: Starter grinding or spins at startup. (2013-2016 Accord V6 A/T only & 2013-2015 crosstour V6 A/T only). Corrective action: Replace starter (pt# 31200-5G0-A04) and rotate the torque converter clockwise 1 bolt hole). The Honda dealer said it would cost roughly $600 plus dollars to remedy the problem. If this is such an issue on these specific vehicles, then why is there not a recall!!!
We have had intermittent problems where the car will not start. It just makes a clicking sound. We can jump start it and drive it around and sometimes the problem goes away for months at a time. Then randomly it will not start again. I have had the battery and charging system checked multiple times by autozone, advance auto, O'reilly, and walmart service center. The battery and charging system always reports as fine. I recently had the oil changed at walmart and the service technician could not get it to start. He jumped it and drove around to the other side of the bay to check the battery and it happened again. He removed the cables and cleaned the terminals and sprayed on battery post protectant and then jumped it again. I drove home and had not had any problems for over a month and now it has happened again. This all started after having the factory recall battery management sensor replaced in late 2017. This is at least the eight time over the past 1+ years. I was told by at least one autozone employee that they have seen many Honda vehicles with a similar problem because the battery sensor or main fuse block will intermittently block any voltage coming from the battery into the starting system. It is random and will sometimes even prevent a jump start unless you tap on the top of the sensor. And then it starts fine. My local Honda dealership claims there is no such problem and refused to call me back to have the vehicle checked while still under warranty. I am now out of warranty due to the date of purchase and not mileage and all they will say is that it sounds like my starter is bad and needs to be replaced which will cost over $700 now that I am out of warranty.
My 2015 Accord has approx 62,000 miles, I have owned the vehicle since new and it has been 100% maintained precisely to all maintenance schedules by scott Honda of West chester pa since new. Following a dissatisfactory service visit to scott Honda, I opened hood to perform minor fluids check, and observed alarming corrosion of battery terminals. I have never seen this level of accumulation of corrosion on battery terminals for any vehicle in my life. This is not normal. I disconnected, carefully inspected and cleaned both positive and negative terminals and hardware. The positive cable fitting is disintegrated and nearly the thickness remaining equivalent to a piece of "aluminum foil". removing the finishing tape of positive harness reveals heavy green/blue corrosion beyond battery fitting and cable swage. Also observed heavily corroded negative battery connection behind driver-side wheel. Negative terminals and connections are also corroded at battery and battery sensor. Battery sensor was serviced immediately upon recall notice by scott Honda. Battery is oem original and exhibits no signs of battery problems or starting...beyond corrosion. Scott Honda never alerted of the battery corrosion matter, nor asserted any service need or preventative maintenance to correct condition. Thus, there very many "safety checklists" and state inspections are largely systematic "window dressing". scott Honda has ignored my written requests and photos for explanation, root cause, or follow up. I will seek compensation from american Honda to replace all battery cable harnesses and inspection of electrical system at Honda expense. Photos are attached. I urge Accord owners to visually perform their own under-hood inspections....regardless the amount inspections they perceive to be performed by dealer.
Unable to start the vehicle. Battery tested fine. Honda dealership told me to replace the starter and the car still won't start two days after being replaced. The recall for the battery sensor was also done on the car and the car has been very well taken care of.
My 2015 Honda Accord after 33,000 miles is giving me a lot of problem battery wise. I had to have it boosted several times, I took it to a Honda dealer who did a thorough check and who claim there was nothing wrong with the battery. Even being very careful about not leaving anything electric when the power is not on, I still experience tremendous problems with starting the car; I hope I wont have to change the battery at 34,000 miles and barely 40 months old car. Also while in motion I experienced the car wanting to stall, with the power of the car shutting down for a second or 2. there was a recall having to do with the battery.
The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact received a recall notification for NHTSA campaign number: 17V418000 (electrical system) in August of 2017. The vehicle was taken to boyd Honda of South hill Virginia (1121 E atlantic St, South hill, va 23970, (434) 447-3111) where the battery sensor was replaced, but the failure recurred. The contact stated that the battery sensor replacement was to prevent the battery from dying. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and provided case number: 09195187. The approximate failure mileage was 52,000.
The car fails to start after several turns of the key up to 12 times before starting. Once it does start, it starts like there isn't a problem at all. Car rarely starts on the first turn of the key. This has happened since about 47,000 miles. Car currently has 51,000
Honda Accord windows opening when car is locked. This is a well documented issue e.g. see https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-C23084_ds575177 it has happened to me twice while the car is parked outside in my driveway during rainy weather. Honda does document in the owner's manual that remote opening of windows is possible in certain models with a double press and hold of the door open button on the key fob. So I cannot say for certain that it was not an inadvertent press sequence on my key fob since I did have it in my pocket with other keys in my house. However note that this possible inadvertent press has happened twice - and obviously can happen again. I would also speculate that some random stray signal may trigger this, totally out of my control. Key fobs that can actuate windows and doors inadvertently are unsafe and a process needs to be made to deactivate them until a desired action is specifically made by the driver.
Starter dies not start all the time. Press button and hear it grind. Car as $42,000 miles. Dealer says not under warranty. I have read tons of complaints that Honda knows about this. It may strand me in the middle of winter. Issue is with 2013-2015 V6 Accord. Dealer wants $800 to replace with same defective part.
I bought a 2015 Honda Accord about 3 months ago with 40,000 miles on it. At 42,000 miles, I was leaving in the morning for work and had to jump my vehicle. It then happened each time that I tried to start my car. The alternator had gone completely out and I had to pay $700 to fix. An alternator should never go out that early in a vehicle at just 42,000 miles.
The right rear door does not open with the remote, or with the lock/unlock inside button or manually. The system is frozen on that side creating a very dangerous situation for my children that have to travel in the rear seat. There is no way to open the rear door in case of accident/fire or any other emergency.
Parked car and locked it by pushing the button on the door. Did not use the fob. Came back later and all the windows were rolled full down and the moon roof was open. No action on my part seemed to cause this. Second time this has happened. First time was about a year ago. Read some internet reports about this kind of thing happening with other Honda owners. Risk of weather damage to vehicle, theft, vandalism, etc.
The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. While driving 35 mph, the contact heard an abnormal sound under the hood and the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was able to be coasted to the side of the road. The contact noticed that the sound was coming from the battery. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that the VIN was not associated with a recall. The manufacturer provided case number: 06069488. The approximate failure mileage was 64,000.
Vehicle (4 cycl, 2015 w/ 20K miles) failed to start on the first try, would take 6 or more attempts of the push button start to get the vehicle to successfully start. No alarms, lights, notification, etc.. that the vehicle saw an issue (I.e. key fob not present). Honda dealership diagnosed the problem as a "faulty starter motor". replacement isn't covered by the remaining warranty (bumper to bumper is expired, but power train hasn't). Dealer replacement quote is $693.80.
Car started to lag when pressing button to start this morning. Went to turn it on to leave in the afternoon and just died. No lights came to us know. Just died. This happen to us about 4 months ago and we replace the battery.
