2015 Honda Accord Engine Problems

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact’s son stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled and failed to exceed 50 MPH. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was able to restart; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that there was a misfire in cylinder #2, causing engine failure, and the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 164,040.

I bought a car from a private seller on Craigslist. I've only driven the car for 2k miles before the check engine light came. Before that I had to spend like 1k on the breaks oilchange etc to get the car upto date. Now it feels really unsafe to be in especially for my daughter who is [XXX]. The dmv suspected odometer fraud.

I purchased a car from AutoNation Toyota Hayward in Hayward California on June 21, 2025. And on June 24,2025, the check engine light appeared. A mechanic checked my car for the code and informed me that the catalytic converter is faulty. The dealership had informed me that they check the car prior to be sold. As it goes through multiple checks. However, the car that was sold was faulty. They refused to answer my questions as to why a faulty car was sold. As I was driving the car back to the dealership, I could smell the fumes throughout my car.

I own a 2015 Honda Accord EX-L V6 3.5L that I purchased brand new from the dealership with zero miles. I’ve taken excellent care of the vehicle, and because I typically drive short distances, it only has 93,000 miles as of June 2025. Despite the low mileage and proper maintenance, the intake manifold plenum (part #17160-5G0-A00) now needs to be replaced due to significant deterioration. The material used for this part is poorly made, it corrodes and breaks down over time, causing vacuum leaks. This is a well-documented, widespread issue in Honda vehicles globally. In my case, the deterioration has caused performance and safety concerns and has rendered my car undrivable. To make matters worse, this part is on national backorder with no estimated delivery date. I’ve contacted numerous dealerships and suppliers with no success, leaving me without a working vehicle or timeline for repair. I rely on this car for transportation, work, and daily responsibilities. It is extremely frustrating that a critical engine component is both defective and unavailable, especially when so many other Honda owners are facing the same problem. I am filing this complaint to raise awareness and request a timely investigation and resolution.

My oil filter is a constant problem for me and no matter how many times i get it replaced it’s still leaking and i was informed that it may cause a fire and i have children in my car every day and i want to avoid that happening

There was a recall on some of the 2015 for engine cutting out at times when you turn and try to accelerate and nothing happens. Well its been doing it with my car but they say not part of recalls. But at times I take a turn, can't go anywhere cause gas pedal don't go till I wait a few seconds and than it goes. Dangerous driving at times

Bought the car used from Michigan car dealer in Shelby MI. Car had 44,820 miles. Bought the car 4/29/23. The day after I bought it the starter would not engage properly and makes a loud grinding periodically and have to put it in neutral to start it.

The starter grinds or spins at startup.

Car intermittently won't start

As the car is running in the highway lost power and can not accelerate

On May, 25, 2021 my family were on the highway and all of a sudden the car started stalling. In which the accelerater started braking instead of moving, the car was slowing with all the lights turning on on the dashboard. FCU failure message flashing with engine sign, Ldw, Fcw, tire pressure, stability sign, steering sign all came on. It almost caused us to have an accident. My kids my wife everyones were screaming because other cars and trucks around us, and we didn't know what's going on with out car and other cars were honking at us. We were all so scared and my wife was crying, my kids were crying. We signal with our hands out of the car to get to the shoulder and stopped the car. We thought we are going to die if any of the trucks or cars hit us. Never scared in our life like that day. So still my car is on my driveway parked. There is a recall of the 6 cylinder of 2015 manufactured. But not for the 4 cylinder same safety issues other people have. I contacted the American Honda but they are denying any safety issues 2015 Honda accord 4 cylinder have engin failure. Please issue a safety recall so it will be safer before someone's family is put in danger instead of not knowing when their cars engin fails.

MY CAR HAS BEEN BURNING OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. THERE ARE NO LEAKS AND I GET THE OIL CHANGED EVERY THREE MONTHS REGARDLESS OF MILAGE. TODAY I CHECKED MY OIL AND IT WAS EMPTY. THERE WAS NO INDICATION LIGHT AND THE MORE I SEARCH ONLINE FOR SOLUTIONS, IT SEEMS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS VEHICLE. I FEEL HONDA SHOULD FIX THE DEFECT.
