On 6/25/2015 at around 9:15 am on the way to take my grandfather to a doctor visit, as my mother was exiting goldenwest on the 22 freeway going westbound, experienced an incident where the right rear tire blew out. There was no construction on the road where sharp objects could have caused this to occur. I have also inspected the tire and found that there is no other damage to the tread of the tire. We believe that this is a tire defect. Photos have been submitted to the tire supplier, continental tires, as well as Honda customer service through facebook as I could not locate their email address. We have contacted autonation Honda in costa mesa where the vehicle was purchased and was directed to contact the tire supplier directly, which I believe is quite ridiculous that they would not even assist us in handling this issue with the product. …
For a week the lights on the dashboard showed that there was a problem with the ABS brakes & traction device flashing and so we took it in to Honda to have them find out why. The first time it was a Sunday afternoon (May 31th) and the fellow said it was a computer glitz and he reset the computer. In less than 1 day the lights appeared again, so we made an appointment for that Wednesday June 3rd to have it looked at; when we got there they said it would take 2-3 hours to check all the codes, etc. We were not told this when we made the appointment, so we did not have the time that day. We asked the man that talked to us (it was mike or doug) would it be dangerous to drive it and he said "no." ....just computer problems. So the very next day as I was driving to work in my only 4 month old car and was on this 2 lane road that is by all info can be dangerous. …
I purchased a new 2015 Honda Accord touring from pat peck Honda on dec. 1, 2015. The car when test driven vibrated at highway speeds. As the car had been manufactured in April of 2015, I assumed that the tires were a little flat spotted. I was told that the tires were a little bit "out of balance" and the dealer balanced the tires, test drove it and returned it to me as roadworthy. I took the car back 3 times and each time the dealer represented to me that the problem was tire balance and the problem was fixed. They even claimed that the tires were replaced. I am convinced that that is a lie. I took the car to an independent tire dealer this morning and he examined the tires and showed me on his balance machine that the tires are out of round. I am complaining because I do not consider these tires as roadworthy and the dealer is refusing to do anything constructively to fix the problem. …

In 2016 howling, humming noise started in rear wheel when driving between 40-55 MPH on both city streets and highway. Noise would increase with speed. Dealership diagnosed faulty wheel bearing and replaced it under warranty on feb 13, 2017 at 22,600 miles. After returning home from vacation in fl, the noise started again. The car was taken to my local dealership and was diagnosed again with a faulty wheel bearing at 26,690 miles. Research has shown this is a recurring issue for the 2014-2015 model years for my vehicle. My warranty will be up in November 2017 and I am concerned that I May continue to have recurring issues and expenses due to this known problem. I have been a loyal Honda customer and want to know what Honda can do to remedy this issue. A vehicle of this age and mileage should not be experiencing this issue.
Low tire pressure sensor light comes on intermittently, however when checked tire pressures are fine - this occured over the first year of owning the car, finally the dealership said they resolved the issue and had inflated all tires to 32 psi and reset senors. However checking the tire pressure today, (at the dealership) all 4 tires were at 21 psi and no sensor light for low pressure was on. During the first three episodes of low tire light - a formal complaint was filed with Honda, they assured us that the problem was resolved, however appears to still be an issue, driving on 4 underinflated tires is also a serious risk (we only had them checked because of the change in seasons for winter to spring). Was told by Honda the sensor issue is "usually a driver issue, not a sensor issue".
