Clunking sound

Honda Accord 2000 LX, VTEC, 4 cylinder 294000 miles
2000 Honda accord vtec 4cylinder manual transmission. I have a clunking sound sometimes when turning, not always though, sometimes the clunking sound happens when I shift into gear when driving straight but will stop as soon as I put it back in neutral. The sound doesn't happen all the time, there is no pattern to it.

2010 Accord LX problem

Honda Accord 2010 LX Sedan 2.4L 5M
The past two times i have brought the car in for an oil change i have been told that the oil level is below the dipstick. Both times i have brought the car in for an oil change with 20% oil life showing. Shifting from 2nd to 3rd sometimes gets "blocked". That is the only way i can describe it, you go to shift and cant get into gear, either have to go back to 2nd or back to neutral and then back in. The "double pump shift" usually works. I have also had a problem with the speaker deck rattling which i had supposedly fixed under warranty but only to have the same problem.

I am experiencing the issue outlined in tsb 09-010, at cold start-up, the engine rattles loudly for about
2 seconds. I am in the process of trying to contact american honda to see if i can get goodwill to get this repaired. It is unacceptable that this is such a widespread known issue yet honda fails to issue a recall.

Honda Accord 2014 EX-L Sedan 2.4L CVT
This is a nightmare. Honda accord 2014. Last night my windows and sunroof automatically opened; there have been other random electrical problems, see below. The opening of the windows occurred during a rain storm and my brand new honda is filled with water. The dash is blank and the phob key radio searching light is not blinking; so there was a short that caused this to happen. I will never buy a honda again. If you are having any of the problems listed below, pay attention to them because i kept thinking they were just random little issues but they were precursors to this very big issue.

Car was descending down a hill, i heard a loud metallic clunk and the car instantly rotated left throwing it across the oncoming lane and down an embankment through some trees, car stopped in mud. Mechanic from body shop that towed the car said the engine started fine but the car made a grinding sound when he tried forward and reverse, neither worked. Car was totaled due to body damage. Car was still under warranty but honda would not investigate, repair or pay any damages.

2014 Honda Accord problem

Honda Accord 2014 EX Sedan 2.4L CVT
Popping and clunking noises in driver's side front end were due to improperly torqued lock nut on driver's side strut. Dealer inspected it and determined it was not compromised, so reinstalled it; therefore it must not have been defective, but improperly torqued.

To: nthsa i had purchased a brand new honda accord in march 2014 and soon after i noticed a rattling noise in the steering wheel. I took it for repair to the dealership and they took me on a test drive to hear the noise and they attempted to fix it without success. The rattling noise is not always present and it comes unpredictably therefore every time i go to the dealership they want me to drive it and replicate the noise which is sometimes not possible. I have recordings of the noise and they would not accept that to fix the car. A representative from honda corporate office had personally… Read complete

2014 Accord EX problem

Honda Accord 2014 EX Sedan 2.4L CVT 16000 miles
Upon being handed the keys to my brand new 2014 honda accord i noticed a lot of scratches near the doors. I thought it odd since it's a keyless entry car. The salesperson agreed that there shouldn't be scratches, and said those would probably come out, and offered me a courtesy "buffing. " after taking possession of my new car, i noticed a clunking noise when backing out of my driveway and pulling onto the street. I also noticed it took more work to steer the car than my other car which i bought new five years ago. I also noticed some tape on both sides of the front bumper that hadn't been re… Read complete

Problem 2010 Honda Accord LX 4cyl

Honda Accord 2010 LX Sedan 2.4L 5A 3000 miles
Excessive oil consumption. I am putting 1-2 quarts oil every 3000 miles, even though the oil life indicates 80% or better. I bought this car new and just noticed this about 9 months ago. The oil is not leaking, it is just gone. Also when i start the car first thing in the morning or when is is cold, the top of the engine makes a rattling noise. There is also a loud pronounced noise that sounds like it is either the engine or the transmission, something doesn?t sound right. I am taking it to the dealer to have it checked out.

On 11/22/14 i was driving on a small residential street going under 15mph approximately 5 feet from the turn i was going to be making. A right hand turn. I heard a bang and my steering completely locked up. I hit the curb causing my right front passenger tire to blow. The steering was completely locked up and the vsa light was on. I followed the instructions in the owners manual and turned the car off and then on again which shut the vsa light off and the tow truck driver was able to turn the wheel slightly but made a terrible clunking noise. The vehicle was towed to the dealership where it wa… Read complete

Problem 2009 Accord EX-L 4cyl

Honda Accord 2009 EX-L Coupe 2.4L 5A
The noise coming from the passenger side under the glove box when the air is on is annoying and pretty loud. The radio can't even conceal the sound at low volume. Likewise, the glove box isn't latched according to the lines of the dash (1 cm gap). The glove box moves and rattles. The seat also rattles and shakes when going over any surface whether highway or city streets... These noises are just too much. The car is 09 not 1988. Actually 1988 probably wouldn't have all these problems. The deal said the air noise is normal??? sorry it's not normal to not be able to talk to someone because the car feels like it's breaking down and noise is coming from every direction.

2013 Honda Accord issues

Honda Accord 2013 EX-L Sedan 2.4L CVT
Right front suspension makes a metal to metal squeal noise when turning to the left while the wheels are rolling. Crown honda, durham, nc replace three parts in the right front suspension under warranty as directed by honda tech line on nov. 20, 2012. However, as of dec. 5, 2012, the squeal noise has returned when turning to the left and the right front suspension now makes a clunk noise when traveling over small dips in the roadway. Since the noise sounds like metal to metal rubbing, i'm concerned about breakage of these moving parts and my overall safety. *tr

2009 Accord EX-L problem

Honda Accord 2009 EX-L Sedan 2.4L 5A
There is a known fabrication defect of the steering column on honda accord 2009 model. A service bulletin was issued by honda corporation regarding this issue in 2009. The lower bearing of the steering column was mis-installed. As a result, the steering column makes a clunk noise when the steering wheel is turned. I first brought this issue to the attention of the honda dealership soon after i purchased the car in october 2009. They did not do anything about it. Meanwhile the steering became sticky. In other words the bearing in causing binding. I am afraid that at a sudden turn of the steering wheel, the bearing might shatter and lock up the steering column. I consider this to be a serious safety issue. *kb

I bought a 2011 honda accord lx, it was delivered with 11 miles. After i drove the car for little over 300 miles it was making a lot of noise.
