The car speakers and microphones unexpectedly emit deafening loud static sounds that continues while driving. Powering audio system OFF makes no difference. The static is at least 90 decibels. It's frightening and impedes safe driving. Cale YARBOROUGH'S HONDA DEALERSHIP is witness to the defect and determine that the "head unit" must be replaced. The head unit integrates the audio, Bluetooth, GPS and backup & blind spot camera functions. The dealership has ordered a replacement head unit but it is on backorder indefinitely! There have been many other reports of this problem with this equipment. Please help me get my car safe again. American Honda has been aware of the problem but ineffective in its response.
Just for the daytime bulb we need to replace the whole headlight unit which will cost us $550 to $850. Its such a bad engineering from Honda.
Static coming through the speakers at loud volume unable to turn off even when radio is off
Back-up camera stopped working. Screen is completely black when vehicle is in reverse. No warnings.
For more than a year, my car has been having issues starting up. It rarely starts on the first attempt. It usually starts on the second attempt. There are times when it takes multiple attempts to start. I have planned on having the starter replaced when I have the timing belt replaced in a few months. However, today I discovered this site and realized many others have the same issue. Have there been resolutions for anyone? If so, what was the resolution?

My car stalls at times or pause for a second
On 12/29/22, while in our driveway and preparing to leave home, our forward-facing daughter alerted us to a functionality issue with her car seat straps. The child was able to pull herself all the way forward while strapped into her car seat. After tightening the straps several times, the issue persisted and she continued to be able to fully loosen the straps by simply leaning forward. This demonstrated the way she would have flown forward in the event of an accident, because the straps were not properly restraining her. The car seat was removed from the vehicle and brought inside the home for closer inspection. The locking mechanism in the base of the seat, which typically allows a parent to tighten the straps but then locks the straps in place to prevent loosening, had clearly been rende
Android auto is not working for my car right from the day of purchase, is there any fix coming soon for this?
I went to a body worker yesterday because my lower and upper back and legs were in such pain. I tried placing pillows and towels in strategic places, and I just ordered a variety of lumbar support / cushions to try to alleviate the pain. I cannot believe that I just spent $33,000 for this car and cannot drive it for more than 15 minutes before experiencing excruciating pain. I have just over 1,100 miles on it and have no idea what to do. I tried adjusting the driver seat positions: forward/back, up/down, angled/leveled the seat, adjusted the lumber support to more/less pronounced positions, without finding a position that alleviates the pain. Also, when I try to adjust the steering wheel to see if arm position might be part of the problem, it lands either high, or if I lower it, the w
I experience excruciating pain when driving for more than 15 minutes in my new Honda accord ex-l v6. I cannot find a comfortable position in the driver's seat, despite having tried every adjustment: forward / back, up/down, angle the seat, adjust the lumber support, adjust the steering wheel. I went to a body worker twice this week to alleviate the pain in my lower and upper back and legs. I have driven various cars for 40 plus years and never had a problem with seats, until now. I do not know what to do. I just spent $33,000 on a vehicle that was supposed to be reliable and comfortable, but I simply cannot be in such pain. The car now has 1,100 miles on it, and I guess that I need to sell it back to the dealer or to a private party, for a loss of thousands of dollars. *tr

LED daylight driving safety lights failed at 44400 mi and 2 3/4 years old (out of any warranty) requiring replacement of whole driver's side headlight assembly at a cost of $736. This is obviously poor safety design of the leds with no mechanism for replace beyond the whole headlight assembly. Vehicle was in motion when the driving lights failed and there was no obvious indication. Of the failure.
Driver's side front LED lights went out. I do not see any reason for this, it just stopped working. I am worried this may be a safety issue as these LED lights are now permanently off.
After driving the vehicle for only 20,000 miles, both daytime running lights shut off and stopped working. The daytime running headlights were not part of any Honda warranty due. The day time running headlight appear to be affected by a electrical issue or possibly a defect in the headlight itself. Honda is charging customers well over $1,000 to replace each headlight unit which contains the LED daytime running lights.

Hello, good morning, I want to make a complaint, I don't know if you can help me. What happened to my car was that I bought it at a major world dealership in long island city, which they told me that the car did not have an accident or total loss report, which turns out to be a lie after a few months with the car. I noticed that the car has total damage. Hey, it even has part from another vehicle. I've tried to get him to help me, but he says it doesn't have to do with the car anymore. They also charged me a guarantee of 3,000 dollars and they do not want to cover what the vehicle has in conclusion; the car has a destabilizing rear rubber, the part of the trunk enters the water, the doors on the left side do not belong to the same VIN number of the vehicle and a no number of thing.
Issue 1: LED strip on front headlight defective. Had two defective headlight LED strips go out on my vehicle. Issue 2: chasis making squeaking sound when driving less than 5 MPH driving on incline.

Driver-side side-view mirror is split into a flat and convex parts. This is eye-stress inducing and is not natural to look at. Please replace with proper blind spot system.

The firestone affinity touring tires on my 2016 Honda accord would not grip on a dusting of snow and ice! (less than one inch!) the tires would spin and slip on a slight incline out of a driveway at my local drugstore! Other cars where passing me by with no problem. When coming home and slowly turning into my parking garage, the tires started to slip and skid! I have been driving for many years and this is the first time I have ever experienced this problem with any other vehicle or tire brand! These are low resistance tires which grip well on dry pavement but do not grip in the snow! I have read other reports from people that this brand of tire gave them the same problem. In short, these tires should not have been factory installed on this vehicle unless it was to be sold in a dry cli
