The car has a push button start. Sometimes the starter on the car does not work properly. At times, the car fails to start for 5 to 10 minutes and indicates that the starter system is not not working properly. It also indicates that the power is still on. Even after the ignition is off, the power is still on. On June 27, 2019, I had to pay $773.84 to replace the starter. This problem has been going on for months. The car only has 51,562 miles. The problem started before 50,000 miles but happened infrequently. Over the months, the problem grew worse. Now the car may not start in the evening but starts immediately the next morning. Getting stranded is a definite risk. The danville Honda dealership in Virginia said they keep the starters in stock because they are replacing a lot of them. There are also discussions on-line about the problem - community talk. Therefore, Honda should replace the starters free of charge.

Push button start does not function properly. The car is unpredictable because it frequently fails to start when I push the engine button. Sometimes it starts on the first try, but I am frequently left trying to crank the car for 5 to 10 minutes. One day it would not start at all but started immediately the next morning. This problem has existed for months and the car has approximately 52,000 miles. I read on 'community talk' that other Honda owners are experiencing the same issue. On June 27, 2019, I had to pay over $773.84 to replace the starter. The dealership in danville, va. Said they keep the starters in stock because they are replacing all of them.

Battery drains often. Have changed the battery twice & I believe I will have to change it again. I believe it's the charging system for the battery

In 2018 my battery went dead and the lines were corroded. Battery was replaced. 3 months ago my car started to not start randomly. All lights on dash lit up, starter making noise as if it is starting, car doesn't start. This was about once a week but is now up to ten times a week. I looked it up online where others reported the same problem, said put it in neutral and it will start (true) and that Honda were having trouble with connection to batteries. Said step one was to change out sensor until part became available to fix this problem and to contact recall with VIN number to get vehicle fixed. I had a recall on a sensor a couple of years ago and took car in for same and had work done--not sure if this is same problem or not, but as I was able to look the exact problem up online with explanation and solution how to circumvent problem I expected to see a recall about this. Please advise what my next step is. Thank you. [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'

2013 Honda Accord caught on fire in our complex on Sunday 6/9/2019. The car was stationary for about 4 hours prior to the vehicle catching on fire. We were called by our neighbor that the car was on fire just before 4pm that day. When we got back, the fire department had just put out the fire. A police report was also filed. The car is also is part of an active recall for the battery sensor. We received 2 notices (August 2017/Feb 2019) and I was told each time that the car was not part of the recall. I have filed a claim with my insurance company along with opened up a case with Honda. I also filed a consumer complaint against Honda for a defective car. No one was in the car at the time it caught on fire but the vehicle is a total loss as it destroyed the entire front end of the car. My insurance company along with Honda will be sending out their fire inspectors to identify the origin of the fire to determine liability.

Having problems starting the car, keep saying check charge system. Went to mechanics they said there was a recall for the battery sensor, went to the dealer and change the sensor but still saying check charge system. Put the key in everything light but wont start the car. Every now and then it works fine but some days it take time for the car to start.

The ignition switch didn't work well only a few years after I purchase the new car (2013 Honda Accord). The factory must have a recall!

The battery sensor has gaps which could lead to a fire or other dangerous complications. The car often doesn't start. There have been recalls on this make/model/year but not this VIN.

Car not starting. Having to jumpstart periodically. Replaced battery even though battery registered good. Realizing it's in the electric start switch. I built these cars, I'm troubleshooting now. Have read several complaints about my exact issue. Bought it new, highway miles between oh and fl. 69K. Shouldn't be having this issue. Always serviced and maintained. I don't feel this should come out of my pocket. First time I experienced it, was out with friends, paid for a taxi to get home, jumpstarted next day to get it home. The several other times, I was in my driveway and was able to jumpstart it here. It's in the electric start. Purchased battery 3/9/19, still having difficulty with it turning over. $164. For a new battery. Which I knew it wasn't battery, fianc had it replaced worrying about me being stranded. I can see this is going to be a problem for me. I first noticed it July 2018. Wouldn't start in oh, I thought I had just left my trunk open too long while packing.

I leave it alone for about a min or two. Battery is not the problem and I've already had it tested. Took it in for service, they couldn't duplicate. Anybody else have this problem" what should I do at this point"

Starter failure, starter just clicks. I have the same starter problem as all the other compliants for a 2013 Honda Accord.

- Jamison, PA, USA

Issue with push button start. Started experiencing intermittently when pushing button, car won't start. Typically hit the button again and car starts. Now, however, it is taking a few to several times of pushing the start button for car to start. This can happen after being turned off for a minute to overnight. There is no pattern. I've seen this problem has happened to many owners of the '13 Honda Accord when I look online. Why hasn't Honda taken responsibility & issued a recall. This can be a safety issue if you get stuck somewhere & car won't start. (copy/paste- same problem!!)

There three warning indicators that come on my dash and will not go off. The indicators are the power steering sensor, the tire pressure monitoring system and the vsa engaged indicator. I have 4 friends with Honda Accord ranging from 2013 - 2015 and we have all experienced the same issue. When I talk to a mechanic as well as Honda no one knows why these indicators are illuminated. No issues can be found to why these lights will not go off. The vehicle starts in the am and these lights are not on and when I drive about 30 miles these lights come on and stay the remaining time. These lights stay on, highway and street driving as well as sitting stationary.

I have 2013 Accord LX 55K miles, and had intermittent starting problem from last few months, doesn't matter if it's cold or hot, sometimes it just doesn't start. I leave it alont for about a min or two with key out and then it'll start, sometimes longer. Battery is not the problem and I've already taken to the dealership to have them check the battery and the starting system. Checked out ok, they couldn't duplicate. Anybody else have this problem" now it won't start at all. I found the recall is for V6 models only. What should I do at this point"

Since purchase in 2017. We have had to get roadside assistance multiple times to jump the battery because vehicle wouldn't start. We have spoke to Honda that perhaps this VIN# vehicle should have been on a recall...but not included on a the 11/8/17 kgo recall. We then turn to local pepboys to do a 1st diagnostic on 10/2/2018 and showed damaged battery and so we purchased a new battery and then 2 weeks later on 11/2/18 had to have two jump starts that week and we returned to pepboys for a 2nd diagnostics that pinpointed something causing battery damage. Installed a new 2nd battery which brings us to where we are currently. In conclusion, we are fearful as we drive this vehicle and park and worry that we are going to be left stranded some where when we go to crank vehicle or worse a fire due to some electrical short. We believe that Honda should provide a voucher to take vehicle to local Honda dealership at their cost to determine the root cause since they should know their vehicle the best.
