2010 Honda Accord Engine Problems

When driving at a normal speed, like 55mph, I’ll still be pushing on the gas pedal and it will drop down to 15mph on its own, then stall. It’s happened several times. I was sitting at a traffic light, went to turn left, pushed on the gas pedal, started to go, then just died. Someone told me they had a car like mine, and it does the same thing, another friend said his 2012 four door accord just had it happen to his when he was turning left, he pushed on the gas and it started to go, then died, he was hit and it totaled his car. He said it would happen to him all the time, but couldn’t afford a new car. Someone told him that it’s the eco system, that it happens all the time with the Honda accords. If this is true, Honda needs to recall them, there’s a lot of them still on the roads.

The contact owns a 2010 Honda Accord. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was able to be restarted.

The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 151,000.

Vehicle has 73k miles every 1000k miles its burning at least a quart of oil

I have a 2010 Accord coupe I notice ac/heat vent problems and a leak in the coolant inside the passenger floor/console area. So I researched it and saw this Manufacturer Communication ID: 10120775 says: In this service bulletin, Honda alerted dealerships that the driver’s side vent may produce a lower level of heat than what is coming from the front passenger’s vent. The most common cause is that the car’s heater core is partially clogged. When this happens, it can cause the heater's performance to fail. The company instructed dealerships that encounter this problem to flush the heater core to resolve it. No recall has been issued, but dealerships should know how to handle this problem. I will reach out to Honda dealerships in my area to see what happens.

I purchased a 2010 Honda last year. And the engine makes a loud noise. As well as burns through oil. I get an oil change. And at 80% I end up having to purchase 2 quarts and add more oil to the engine. That is not normal.

I had my oil changed last month on the 17th at plaza tire in Malden Missouri.. I check my oil frequently. I checked it the 15th of this month an it showed no oil on the dipstick an I couldn't believe it to be honest because no indicators popped up or nothing I don't understand how thats possible

105K MILES, REGULAR CAR MAINTENANCE, CLEAN TITLE (NO PREVIOUS ACCIDENTS/OTHER ISSUES), NO PENDING RECALLS. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AT 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE ENGINE SOMEHOW IGNITED AND CAUGHT FIRE. PREVIOUS TO THIS INCIDENT, THERE WERE NO PENDING ISSUES, WHICH WERE CONFIRMED BY A RECENT INSPECTION AND MINOR REPAIRS. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS WAS A FAULTY HONDA ENGINE.

I TURNED ON MY CAR AND THE ENGINE WAS MAKING A ROUGH SPUTTERING SOUND AND WHEN I STARTED DRIVING, IT FELT LIKE IT WAS GOING TO CUT OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPENED I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY ADDRESSED IT FOR FREE. THE SECOND TIME I PAID A COUPLE HUNDRED DOLLARS TO HAVE PISTON(S) REPLACED AND HAVE IT CLEANED OUT. ONE OF THE SERVICE MEN AT THE DEALER SAID THE NEXT TIME THIS HAPPENS IT WOULD COST THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX. THAT WAS 3-4 MONTHS AGO AND NOW IT IS DOING THE SAME THING AGAIN. IN THE APPROXIMATELY 5 YEARS I HAVE OWNED THIS CAR I HAVE REPLACED 2 ALTERNATORS AND AT LEAST 2 BATTERIES. THE DEALER SAYS THAT THIS CAR PREMATURELY BURNS OFF THE OIL IN THE ENGINE. IT IS POOR OIL CONSUMPTION. I WAS TRYING TO TOP OFF THE OIL REGULARLY IN BETWEEN OIL CHANGES BUT NOTHING HAS HELPED THIS. PLEASE HAVE HONDA ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS MAKE AND MODEL

SINCE THAT DATE I HAVE TO CHECK THE OIL TWO OR THREE TIMES A WEEK AND POUR OIL IF NEED IT BEFORE THE 2,500 OR 3,000 MILEAGE I TOLD HIM THAT EVERY TIME I WENT TO HONDA WITH THE SAME PROBLEM THEY LIED TO ME IN REGARDS OF DIAGNOSIS OF THE PROBLEM AND I WAS SPENDING MONEY, TIME, STRESS, FRUSTRATION WITHOUT RESULTS. THE HONDA DEALER HAS BEEN NEGLIGENT AND PROCASTINATES IN REGARDS OF THE RECALL ON THE CAR FOR BURNING OIL. THE PROBLEM WAS THERE AND THEY WERE GUESSING ON SOLVE IT, BECAUSE THEY KNEW ABOUT OTHER CARS. ON 10-10-2020 MY FRIEND WAS HELPING ME TO CHECK THE OIL, I TOLD HIM ABOUT MY HONDA PROBLEMS AND WE DECIDED TO LOOK ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE RECALL. THIS IS NOT MY FIRST HONDA, ON 2008 I BOUGHT AT THE SAME DEALER A HONDA ACCORD; I DO NOT RECALL BUT I THINK WAS A 2007 THAT I DROVE FOR FEW YEARS AND I SOLD IT WITHOUT THIS KIND OF PROBLEMS. THE DEALER HAS THAT FILE. I HAD A HONDA CIVIC - WITHOUT THIS KIND OF PROBLEMS. I BOUGHT HONDA BECAUSE QUALITY AND LOW COST REPAIRS. I AM A SINGLE 58 YEARS OLD WOMAN LOOKING FOR JUSTICE. I CALLED NHTSA AND THE PERSON GAVE ME THE CASE NUMER 11364385

DURING A COLD START, AND CAR IS STATIONARYTHE ENGINE RATTLES FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. I HAVE FOUND OUT PER THE DEALER, THAT THIS PROBLEM IS CAUSED BY THE VTC ACTUATOR. APPARENTLY THIS PARTICULAR MAKE AND MODEL HAS THIS PROBLEM. HONDA HAS ALWAYS BEEN AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND CLAIMS THAT THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO REPLACE THE ACTUATOR AT A COST OF AROUND 900.00 DOLLARS.HOWEVER THEY CLAIM THAT THIS MAY NOT EVEN CORRECT THE PROBLEM. HONDA WAS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT ANNOUNCED A SO CALLED RECALL KNOWING THAT THIS RECALL WOULD NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IT WAS STRICTLY TO COVER THEIR LIABILITY. I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD CORRECT THIS PROBLEM FOR MY 2010 HONDA ACCORD AT NO COST TO CONSUMERS. HONDA CORPORATION WAS ALWAYS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT AND STILL CONTINUED TO SELL THIS PARTICULAR MODEL TO CONSUMERS.
