Problems 2012 Accord SE

Honda Accord 2012 SE Sedan 2.4L 5A
Twice in the last few months my car's engine would not turn over when i turned the key to the start position. It only made a buzzing sound. I returned the key to the resting position and tried again. Both times it started. I took it to the honda dealer to have it serviced. The technician told me this was normal. (no. It's normal for a car to start when you turn the key. ) he gave me a copy of a honda "service news article" dated "october 2001" entitled "starter relay buzzes. " it reads, "if you turn the ignition switch very slowly to start the engine, all honda models except passport have this little quirk: the starter relay buzzes. If your customer complains about it, don't spend your time trying to fix it; there's really nothing wrong. Just tell your customer to turn the ignition switch a little faster, and the relay won't buzz. " *tr
