2012 Honda Accord Other Problems

You noticed a burning smell while driving on the freeway with the air conditioning on. When you turned off the AC, you discovered your center console was on fire. You pulled over and attempted to extinguish it yourself, but were unable to do so until bystanders assisted. The cause of the fire in the center console is unknown.

Your car was stolen while parked, and the anti-theft alarm system did not activate or alert you to the theft. You've filed a police report and are concerned that Honda vehicles, including Accords, may be vulnerable to theft due to potential issues with the anti-theft system's effectiveness. Addressing this would likely involve investigating the alarm system's sensors and triggers, or upgrading to a more robust anti-theft or GPS tracking solution.

Was driving down the highway and the sunroof glass exploded for no apparent reason.

Sun visor snapped. It does not stay in place. It blocks my frontal view when I am driving which is very unsafe. I have looked online and multiple drivers with Hondas complaining of the same issue. I have tried multiple DIY’s to make it stay up and nothing works

THE STARTER OF MY 2012 HONDA ACCORD SPORT FAILED. MY CAR HAS 72500 MILES. HONDA HAS CLASSIFIED THIS A PREMATURE FAILURE CAUSED BY DEFECT, BUT HAS FAILED TO RECALL THE STARTER. THE STARTER THAT FAILED IS MADE IN THE UNITED STATES. THE STARTER FAILURE IS CAUSED MY CAR TO STOP RUNNING IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY CAUSING SERIOUS RISK. MANY HONDA CUSTOMERS HAVE ALSO COMPLAINED ABOUT THE ISSUE WITH REPORTS OF STARTER FAILURE ON CARS WITH LESS THAN 30000 MILES. THE COST OF REPLACEMENT IS $800.00 AND HONDA HAS REFUSED TO FIX THE PROBLEM OR REIMBURSE THE COST OF THE FIX. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF 2012 - 2017 HONDA ACCORD CARS WITH SIMILAR DEFECTIVE STARTER PART CURRENTLY ON AMERICAN ROADS, POTENTIALLY LEADING TO FAILURES AND ACCIDENTS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE CITY STREET I HEARD A LOUD NOISE (POP) I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD DIDN'T SEE ANY VISUAL DAMAGE, SO I PRESSED THE BUTTON TO OPEN THE TRUNK AND THE TRUNK WOULD NOT POP OPEN, SO WHEN I LIFTED THE TRUNK THERE IS S BAR THAT WAS LAYING IN THE TRUNK, THE LITTLE WHITE PIECE THAT ROTATES THE BARS AND HOOKS THE BROKE SO THE TRUNK NO LONGER POPS UP WHEN TRUNK BUTTON IS PRESSED.

I WAS TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE91 IN VERMONT WHEN MY SUN ROOF EXPLODED, SHATTERING GLASS ALL OVER THE FRONT AND BACK SEATS AND FLOOR AS WELL AS COVERING ME. THE NOISE WAS DEAFENING AND I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS HAPPENING WHILE GOING ALONG AT A SPEED OF 69 MPH. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD HAVE BEEN RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS HAPPENING, BUT WHEN I CONTACTED THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE THEY TOLD ME THEY WAS NOTHING THEY WERE GOING TO DO TO HELP IF RAY THE COST!

TAKATA RECALL

THE CAR MAKES A RATTLING NOISE WHEN I START THE ENGINE. IT STOPS AFTER A FEW SECONDS.I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL AND IT WAS GOOD.

ON 7/1/2017, I PURCHASED THE ABOVE VEHICLE WITH 12,000+ MILES FROM YONKERS HONDA @ 1980 CENTRAL PARK AVE, YONKERS, NY WITH THE PROVISO THAT THE TPMS LIGHT WHICH WAS ON WOULD BE CORRECTED. I WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO YONKERS HONDA SERVICE @ 500 YONKERS AVE., YONKERS, NY WHEREUPON A SENSOR WOULD BE REPLACED & THAT THIS ACTION TAKES 4 HOURS. I HAVE BEEN TO THE SERVICE STATION 3 TIMES - JULY 6, JULY 13 & JULY 25 & STILL THE PROBLEM IS UNRESOLVED. I AM BEGINNING TO WORRY THAT THIS IS A BIGGER PROBLEM WITH THIS FEATURE. 1ST HONDA SERVICE ORDERED THE WRONG PART, THEN THE "CORRECT" PART CAME LATE AND YESTERDAY, MY VEHICLE WAS IN THEIR SHOP FROM 7AM UNTIL 2PM AND STILL IT'S NOT RESOLVED. THIS DESERVES AN INVESTIGATION AS I FEAR MY TIRE/S BEING UNDERINFLATED OR WORSE OVERINFLATED AND NOT KNOWING SO. I FEEL THAT I WAS NOT TOLD THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AT THE TIME OF PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE AND AM BEGINNING TO THINK THAT THE LOW MILEAGE PERHAPS ATTRIBUTED TO THIS PROBLEM. THANK YOU.

THE CAR ENGINE SUDDENLY STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING ON OUR CITY STREET. ALSO WE ARE UNABLE TO PUSH DOWN THE BREAK. ( LUCKY NO ONE BEHIND US AND WE ARE NOT ON THE HIGHWAY) . WE HAD TO TURN THE KEY TO OFF POSITION AND RESTART THE ENGINE. THANK YOU

ALLSTATE CLAIM NUMBER: 0419487707 EDWARD DUGAN ALLSTATE AGENCY 1-630-351-9222 MY CAR DAMAGE DUE TO UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ON MY 2012 HONDA ACCORD. THE ACCIDENT HAPPED 7/1/16 AT BETWEEN 12/30 AND 1PM. WHEN IT HAPPENED, I DID NOT HAVE BRAKING ON THE BRAKE PETAL OR POWER STEERING. I DID A HALF CIRCLE IN MY YARD TO AVOID HITTING THE HOUSE OR GARAGE. IT HAPPENED FROM A STOP IN THE CULL-DE-SAC. IT LEFT ACCELERATION TIRE STRIPES WHERE IT STARTED IN THE CULL-DE-SAC. IN THE DRIVEWAY IT MARKED WHERE I TURNED. I TRIED TO AVOID THE GARAGE AND THEN THE HOUSE BY MAKING A SEMI CIRCLE IN THE YARD. I CLIPPED THE CONCRETE STEPS AT THE FRONT OF THE HOUSE. RAN OVER 2 SECTIONS OF A 4 FT. FENCE IN OUR YARD. HITTING THE CONCRETE STEPS SLOWED THE CAR SO AFTER THE FENCE, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE STOPPED THE CAR. THE CAR FIX WAS OVER $5000, AND WE HAD A $150 DEDUCTIBLE . SORRY ALLSTATE. CAR FIX AT SERVICE KING 5TH AVE. IN NAPERVILLE, IL

MY TPMS SENSORS IS CONSTANTLY COMING ON AND OFF. I TOOK MY CAR TO A CLOSEST DEALER FROM MY WORK. DEALER WAS ABLE TO VERIFY MY COMPLAIN AND CHANGED 3 SENSORS OUT OF 4. I TOOK A LONG TRIP APPX. 2000 MILES. AND STARTED TO EXPERIENCE SAME ISSUES. SENSOR HAS STARTED TO COME OFF AND ON AGAIN. SO I SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT WITH MY HONDA DEALER FROM WHOM I GOT THE CAR. HE TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO VERIFY COMPLAIN. SO RIGHT NOW I'M FRUSTRATED. I USED MY TIME TO TAKE MY CAR TO A DEALER AND SINCE IT'S THE ONLY CAR IN MY HOUSEHOLD I SPENT MONEY FOR TRANSPORTATION. I DRIVE 30 MILES TO WORK EVERY DAY AND STILL EXPERIENCE SAME ISSUES WITH TPMS SENSOR IT'S COMING ON AND OFF EVERY TIME I DRIVE.

THE TIRE PRESSURE MS LIGHT CONTINUOUSLY COMES ON AND STAYS ON. EVEN AFTER WE PUT AIR IN THE TIRES. IT IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE BECAUSE WE HAVE NO IDEA IF IT'S REALLY LOW ON PRESSURE OR IF IT'S JUST DEFECTIVE.

THE TEMPERED GLASS SUNROOF EXPLODED UPWARDS, LEAVING SHARDS OF GLASS IN A PATTERN LIKE A CROWN. THE TEMPERATURE WAS 60 DEGREES, I WAS TRAVELING AT 65 MPH ON A LONELY STRETCH OF TWO-LANE ROAD WITH NO OTHER CARS OR PEOPLE AROUND ME. THE SOUND WAS LIKE A TIRE BLOWOUT. THE CAR IS HOUSED IN A GARAGE AND HAS 27,000 MILES ON IT. THE HONDA SERVICE MANAGER SAID SOMETHING HAD TO HAVE HIT IT, BUT HE IS WRONG. NOTHING HIT IT.

I PULLED UP TO PARK AT A BIKE TRAILHEAD AND AS I TOUCHED THE BRAKE THE ACCELERATOR WENT TO THE FLOOR, LURCHING THE CAR FORWARD AND FORCING THE LEFT FRONT TIRE OVER THE RAILROAD TIE PARKING MARKER. THE CAR HIGH CENTERED AND I PRESSED ON THE BRAKE PEDAL BUT THE ENGINE KEPT RACING. I FINALLY GOT THE CAR IN PARK WITH ENGINE STILL RACING AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON AGAIN, IT RESPONDED NORMALLY. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER AND THERE WERE NO ERROR CODES IN THE CAR ELECTRONIC SYSTEM.

I WAS IN A PARKING LOT. I MADE A RIGHT TURN INTO A SPACE AND TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND HAD IT ON THE BRAKE WHEN THE CAR MADE A NOISE AND ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN. I SLAMMED DOWN ON THE BRAKE AND THE CAR STOPPED.

WINDOW ON THE DRIVER SIDE IS WOBBLING, AND CAUSING EXCESSIVE, ANNOYING NOISE. IT'S GETTING WORST WITH TIME.
