CarComplaints.com Notes: The 2013-2014 Honda Accord is showing signs of an electrical problem with the starter failing soon after the 36K mile warranty expires. It's compounded by reports that the OEM battery doesn't have sufficient amps to start the V6 reliably after a year or two.
For now we are rating this problem with the "Beware" seal because it's occurring so soon after the 36K mile warranty expires. The upshot is when your Accord won't start, that's never good, but especially bad when it's just a few years old.
Also once again, owners are complaining that the 2013 Honda Accord seats are uncomfortable. Uncomfortable seats has been a significant complaint with the Accord since the 2008 model year.
All 4 shock absorbers were making annoying noise when I was driving the car over small cracks (or potholes) present on asphalt roads. Fortunately, all four of them were replaced, at no charge, under the new car warranty policy. I deeply hope that this problem has been resolved for good as the replacement was done after more than one year of enduring that irritating situation. Moreover, it will cost quite a lot of money should that problem occur again when the warranty is expired.
