2007 Honda Accord Electrical Problems

I became the 2nd owner of this car. My ownership had been a blessing because of the 1st owner having such a profound history of care and maintained. I randomly had a misfire in my cylinder 2. I took my car to EL Cerrito Honda in El Cerrito, Ca. After my car came from this dealership all kinds of different things begun to take place. Ive never put cameras or listening devices of any sort, nothing that was not made with my car should have been added or changed to its original make. The PCM/ECM was reset by the HDS system which has played a part in the illegal malfunctions of its systems. I have been robbed, Followed and watched from inside my car which i HAVE NEVER given anyone consent to have access to my private life. This has been 9 months of my car misfiring, Capital City Honda in Sacamento,Ca had done the same repair and did not sign the release of liability that El Cerrito Honda issued for the return of my 275.00$ diagnoses but the 571.00 paid for the work done they kept. The Bureau Of Automotive Repair told me to contact The NHTSA for the complaint against Honda Motors for Laws/Regulations. My car has become a safety liability to myself and other drivers lives because of its mechanical and electrical altering without my consent and laws broken by the State of California Vehicle Codes and Pen code 637.7.

Electrical component malfunctioning Knock Sensor: code error: p0325 I noticed my check engine light had came on but wasn't on for long and had turned off on the dash. A few weeks later the check engine light reappeared and did not go back off. Upon this happening I noticed a major difference in my vehicle performance. The fuel consumption had significantly increased, I recognized these shake like vibrations when sitting in park or at a complete stop. A "knocking noise" I would hear coming from the engine, as well as rough idling almost as if there was a "stalling/hesitant" idling that sounded very off. Adding a very noticeable reduced power from the engine that was not there when the check engine light was not on. This has been a confirmed malfunction and should be replaced due to the importance the knock sensor provides to the engine of this vehicle. This was confirmed by an employee at a parts store, with there computer code reader. Upon request for inspection; I have open availability. Confirmed: March 4, 2025 The additional code provided also stated the catalytic converter is recommended to be replaced as well. Engine related systems that power the vehicle such as (catalyst pipes) Powertrain (previously recalled prior time frame) due to this being a numerously reported issue with many other owners of this same vehicle I own. There is a reoccurring issue that absolutely goes hand in hand with the performance and job of the also stated ongoing problems I'm facing. The knock sensor is a vital part to the powertrain system that helps optimize engine performance and protects it from harmful knocking by monitoring combustion irregularities. Potentially if these are current issues, and have caused any kind of damage, the damage alone effects as follows: -wiring issues, internal malfunction, physical damage , corrosion from exposure to engine fluids, internal short circuit, mechanical damage, faulty wiring,excessive vibrations, wear and tear from use.

FIRST OF ALL I'M REALLY SURPRISED TO FIND OUT THAT HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A RECALL FOR THE A PCM - ECM POWER RELAY. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE. BASICALLY WHILE DRIVING MY CAR IF I HAVE THE HEAT ON THE VEHICLE WILL TURN OFF WHEN I SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A STOP. IF I FLASH MY HIGH BEAMS THE CAR WOULD SHUT OFF (WHILE AT A STOP). FINALLY I TOOK MY CAR TO A FRIEND AND THEIR AUTO LINK TESTER READ P0685-ECM- PCM. HE TOLD ME TO TAKE IT TO A DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID AND HAD TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC AND THE AGENT THERE INFORM ME THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. NOW FOR 2 MONTHS I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY VEHICLE THAT I HAVE OWN FOR OVER 10 YEARS, AND EVERY NOW AND THEN IT TURNS OFF ON ME WHEN I'M AT A RED LIGHT, STOP SIGN AND SOMETIMES WHEN I SLOW DOWN. THERE HAS BEEN 2 TIMES THAT I WAS ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND BECAUSE THE VEHICLE TURNS OFF. FOR YEARS I HAVE ALWAYS PURCHASED HONDA ACCORD BUT WITH THEM NOT OWNING UP TO THINGS THAT ARE HAPPENING WITH THEIR VEHICLES AS FAR A SAFETY ISSUE I MIGHT HAVE TO LOOK INTO PURCHASING ANOTHER MAKE AND MODEL WHEN I PURCHASE MY NEXT VEHICLE. HONDA NEEDS TO DO A RECALL ON THESE MODEL OF ACCORDS SO PEOPLE CAN THEIR VEHICLE INTO A DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEIR ELECTRICAL SOFTWARE UPDATED.

I HAVE AN INTERMITTENT BUZZING NOISE WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING. IT GETS LOUDER AND MORE OFTEN WHEN THE CAR WARMS UP. I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP NAMED O'DONNELL HONDA IN ELLICOTT CITY, MD. THE SUPERVISOR MR. JERRY FURR OF THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID HE NEVER HEARD OF A DIODE IN THE ALTERNATOR YET I FOUND ON GOOGLE THAT THIS VIDEO SHOWED THAT EXACT PROBLEM. I ALSO CAME IN TO GET MY GLOVE BOX REPAIRED BECAUSE IT IS ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE. THEY SAID IT WOULD BE EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE BECAUSE THEY WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE THE COMPLETE GLOVE BOX. SO, THEY SAID JUST PULL ON THE BOTTOM OF THE DOOR OF THE GLOVE BOX AND IT MAY OR MAY NOT OPEN WITH TRIAL AND ERROR. THAT GLOVE BOX WAS PROBABLY DEFECTIVE WHEN IT WAS NEW. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM CARMAX IN 2010. THIS PROBLEM WITH THE GLOVEBOX SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED IN 2007 WHEN THE CAR WAS NEW. SO, I SPENT SEVERAL HOURS AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY GAVE ME BACK MY CAR WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING AND THEY CHARGED ME $69. WHAT A WASTE!

THE LOCKS ON MY CAR WILL NOT OPEN. REGARDLESS OF THE WIRELESS ENTRY OR MANUALLY OPENING WITH A KEY OR EVEN FROM THE INSIDE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO UNLOCK THE DOORS, THE DOOR UNLOCKS THEN LOCKS. THE DOORS WILL NOT OPEN UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. THIS IS A SEVERE HAZARD AS MY CHILDREN WERE LOCKED IN THE CAR AND I HAD TO TAKE NECESSARY MEASURES TO GET IN THE CAR THROUGH THE TRUNK TO GET THEM OUT. HONDA SAID THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS ITEM AND I FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE. I CANNOT AFFORD TO FIX THIS AND THIS IS SOMETHING THAT IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA TO FIX. PLEASE HELP ME SO I CAN GET INTO MY CAR AND DRIVE SAFELY WITHOUT KNOWING ILL BE STUCK IN THE CAR.

IN 2010 I PURCHASED A 2007 HONDA ACCORD. PRICE OF THE VEHICLE WAS 18000. IN THE CITY OF SELMA, AT SELMA DEALERSHIP. I WAS NOT INFORMED THAT BOTH SIDES OF THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T WORK. MY FIRST CAR ACCIDENT HAPPENED IN 2011, AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT FLARE UP. EVERY YEAR AFTER THAT ACCIDENT I HAD MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS FIRE DAMAGE AND MORE. IN 2012 OR 2013 I CALL THE HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE AND INFORMED THEM THAT MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T WORK. THE SUPERVISOR AT THE TIME DID NOTHING WHEN I HAD FILED A COMPLAINT AGAINST THE COMPANY. I ALSO WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP IN SEMLA WHERE I BROUGHT THE CAR, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT NOTHING THEY COULD DO ABOUT IT. SOMETIME IN 2016 I WENT TO A PAINT SHOP AND COULDN'T GET THE VEHICLE PAINTED BECAUSE OF THE DEFECTED AIRBAGS. MACCO PAINT SHOP SHOWED ME A DOCUMENT WHERE MY HONDA 2007 HAD A RECALLED ON AIRBAGS.

I PUT THE ALL FOUR WINDOWS DOWN BEFORE DRIVING. AFTER I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION, I PUT ALL FOUR WINDOWS UP, LATER ON THAT DAY BEFORE LEAVING MY DESTINATION, I TRIED TO PUT THE WINDOWS DOWN. THE ONLY WINDOW THAT WOULD GO DOWN WAS THE DRIVER SIDE WINDOW. THE OTHER WINDOWS WOULD MAKE A CLICKING SOUND, BUT WOULDN'T GO BACK DOWN. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM IN MANY HONDA ACCORD MODELS. IT WOULD BE GREAT IF THE COMPANY WOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM, HONDA OWNERS ARE VERY LOYAL CUSTOMERS AND IT WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED BY MANY OF US. THIS PROBLEM MAKES ME A LITTLE SKEPTICAL ABOUT BUYING ANOTHER HONDA.
