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 2014 Honda Accord seats are uncomfortable. Uncomfortable seats has been a significant complaint with the Accord since the 2008 model year.
Hit from various angles in a 5 car accident, airbag failed to deploy. Car received hits from rear, side, and front even pushing the car into a guard rail. The car is a total by insurance and you can stand where part of the side/trunk is supposed to be. Back window broke and shattered upon hit, car was pushed, and hit multiple times at various speeds by various cars/trucks. I asked every time I took my car to Honda for maintenance if there were any recalls and was never informed of any airbag recalls for my particular car. When do the airbags deploy if not in an accident with hits from rear to front?
