2016 Honda Accord Exterior Lighting

THE DRL (DAYTIME RUNNING LAMP) INSIDE THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY HAS BURNED OUT. MY HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS ADMITTED THAT THIS IS BECOMING A COMMON FAILURE WITH 2016/17 ACCORDS. IF IT HAPPENS AFTER THE WARRANTY ENDS, IT IS A VERY COSTLY REPLACEMENT ANYWHERE FROM $500. TO $1,000. THE PASSENGER SIDE DRL IN THAT HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY AS I AM TOLD IN THESE ACCORDS IS ALSO BURNING OUT IN TIME AFTER THE DRIVERS SIDE DOES, THEREFORE INCURRING ANOTHER HUGE EXPENSE. THESE DRL LIGHTS ARE LED AND SUPPOSED TO LAST FOR SEVERAL YEARS. AN ELECTRICAL FAULT CONTROLLING THESE LAMPS OR SOME KIND OF BAD ENGINEERING DESIGN ARE CAUSING THE FAILURE OF THE DRLS. THESE AUTOMOBILES WERE BUILT WITH THIS LIGHTING SYSTEM TO AID IN SAFETY ON OUR DANGEROUS ROADS AND OWNERS OF THESE AUTOS EXPECT THEM TO STAY WORKING FOR MORE THAN A YEAR, TWO OR THREE WHEN PURCHASING A NEW CAR. THESE LIGHTS JUST BURN OUT WHEN DRIVING AT SOME POINT.

MY DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT LED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE IS NO LONGER WORKING. I DO NOT KNOW HOW LONG IT HAS BEEN OUT, BUT NOTICED IT TODAY.

3 YEARS OLF CAR WITH 48,000 MILES BOTH FRONT DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE BURNT OUT. COST TO REAPIR IS ALMOST $1,000. NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ONLINE, AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. THEY RECALL FOR SAFETY ITEMS AND THESE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS ARE THERE FOR SAFETY.

DRIVE SIDE HEAD LIGHT - RUNNING LIGHT IS OUT. LED DRL BURNOUT ISSUE

DRIVER-SIDE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT FAILED IN LESS THAN THREE YEARS OF SERVICE AND 100,000 MILES.

PREMATURE FAILURE OF DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRLS) AT 46,000 MILES AND 3.5-YEARS OF SERVICE.

DRIVERS SIDE DRL WENT OUT ON THE SIDE CLOSER TO THE HONDA LOGO.

DRIVER'S SIDE DAYTIME LED RUNNING LIGHT NO LONGER WORKS AFTER ONLY 65,000 MILES.

BOTH OF MY DRL'S ARE OUT ON MY 2016 HONDA ACCORD SPORT. IT HAS A LITTLE OVER 32,000 MILES ON IT. I WILL BE GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW TO SPEAK ABOUT THIS ISSUE. IF THEY TELL ME IT IS NOT COVERED I WILL NEVER BE BUYING ANOTHER HONDA. I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH 28000 MILES ON IT 3 MONTHS AGO. THE DRL'S WENT OUT LAST WEEK. NO EXTREME WEATHER. NO CRASHES. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM. I HAVE ONLY SEEN ROUGHLY A DOZEN ACCORDS AROUND MY CITY WITH FULLY WORKING DRL'S. IT IS A VERY BAD PROBLEM

FRONT HEADLIGHT UNITS HAD THE LED STRIP AT THE BOTTOM AND CONTINUING UP THE SIDE GO OUT. AS THE HEADLIGHT IS ONE COMPLETE UNIT THE LED PORTION CAN NOT BE REPLACED WITHOUT A COMPLETE CHANGE OUT OF THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT UNIT. AN INTERNET SEARCH OF THE PROBLEM SHOWS THAT THE PROBLEM IS VERY COMMON. MADE A CALL TO HONDA CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE GARNERED ME NO HELP. MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. COST TO REPLACE EXCEEDS $1,500

ONE BOTTOM (MAIN) SECTION OF THE PASSENGER-SIDE DAY-TIME RUNNING LED STRIP BURNED OUT. NOW ONLY THE SIDE PORTION REMAINS ON. BOTH LED STRIPS NEED TO BE ON IN ORDER TO PROVIDE SAFETY (BETTER VISIBLE TO OTHER CARS ON THE ROAD) FOR MY BLACK CAR DURING THE DAYTIME. SINCE LED LIGHTS DO NOT BURN HOT, THEY SHOULD NOT BURN OUT AFTER 3 YEARS. BOTH LED LIGHTS WORK OK (SO FAR) ON THE DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP ASSEMBLY.

AT 50,000 MILES MY LED LIGHT BURNT OUT

THE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT BURNED OUT ON THE DRIVER SIDE...

THE DRIVER SIDE DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT HAS FAILED. IT IS AN LED STRIP THAT IS LOCATED BELOW THE HEADLAMPS. IT HAS COMPLETELY BURNED OUT IN NO LONGER FUNCTIONS.

DRIVER SIDE LED DAYLIGHT RUNNING LIGHT FAILED WITHIN THE FIRST 2 YEARS OF OWNING THE CAR.

PASSENGER SIDE DRL HAS QUIT WORKING. I AM OUT OF WARRANTY BASED ON MILEAGE NOT MONTHS OF TIME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE TAKEN CARE OF. HONDA DEALERSHIP WILL ONLY REPLACE ENTIRE ASSEMBLY (QUOTED AROUND $1,500 FOR 1 SIDE). I HAVE HEARD THAT THERE IS AN UPDATED DESIGN THEY ARE REPLACING THEM WITH. I WILL WAIT FOR THE DRIVER SIDE TO BURN OUT BEFORE CREATING AN ISSUE AT DEALERSHIP LEVEL. MANY COMPLAINTS AND MANY ACCORDS (ALL TRIM LEVELS) WITH THIS ISSUE. MY SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THAT THEY SEE SEVERAL EVERY WEEK! HONDA, DO THE RIGHT THING AND REPLACE THE DESIGN DEFECTIVE LIGHTS AT NO CHARGE!

FRONT HEADLIGHT LED STRIP (USED AS RUNNING LIGHTS) BURNED OUT. THE LED STRIPS ARE NOT ABLE TO BE REPLACED SEPARATELY. THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT UNIT HAS TO BE REPLACED TO REMEDY THE ISSUE. ONE WENT OUT AND WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, AFTER THE CAR WAS OUT OF WARRANTY THE OTHER STRIP WENT OUT. HONDA AMERICA OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE IN THE MATTER. VERY DANGEROUS TO NOT HAVE RUNNING LIGHTS. COST TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE LIGHT UNIT (WHICH, AGAIN, IS REQUIRED TO REMEDY THE ISSUE) IS UPWARDS OF $1,500

BOTH FRONT HEADLIGHT UNITS HAD THE LED STRIP AT THE BOTTOM AND CONTINUING UP THE SIDE GO OUT. AS THE HEADLIGHT IS ONE COMPLETE UNIT THE LED PORTION CAN NOT BE REPLACED WITHOUT A COMPLETE CHANGE OUT OF THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT UNIT. AN INTERNET SEARCH OF THE PROBLEM SHOWS THE PROBLEM IS VERY VERY VERY COMMON. A CALL TO HONDA CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE GARNERED NO HELP. MY HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY PERIOD. COST TO REPLACE EXCEEDS $1,500.

BOTH THE DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER'S SIDE LED DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS (DRL) NO LONGER ILLUMINATE. THE PROBLEM CAN ONLY BE RESOLVED BY REPLACING THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY WHICH WILL RUN AROUND OVER $2,000.00 ACCORDING TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT MUST BE INVESTIGATED TO DETERMINE THE MANUFACTURING DEFECTS OF THIS PARTICULAR HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY.

MY DRL (DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS) WENT OUT IN BOTH OF MY HEADLIGHT HOUSINGS. AND TO FIX THESE TWO LIGHTS BOTH OF THE HOUSINGS WILL HAVE TO BE REPLACED. BOTH OF THE LIGHTS WENT OUT RIGHT AFTER THE 35,000 WARRANTY RAN OUT.

MY 2016 HONDA ACCORD COUPE DRL COMES OUT. I HAVE BOUGHT TWO PAIRS FROM HONDA AND THEY BOTH WENT OUT. OVER 800 PER REPAIR. I'VE BEEN READING ONLINE BUT IT'S NOT JUST HAPPENING TO ME.

TOURING MODEL DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHT (DRL) LED STRIP IS 70% UN-LIT ON ONE HEADLIGHT. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM AND REQUIRES REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT ASSEMBLY, DEALER PART COST $945, INSTALL NOT INCLUDED. FROM MY RESEARCH IT APPEARS THESE BURN OUT EARLY AND OFTEN AND DRL'S ARE LISTED AS A SAFETY FEATURE. THIS IS NOT RIGHT AND A SOLUTION NEEDS TO BE PROVIDED. HONDA CANNOT EXPECT PEOPLE TO REPLACE LIGHTS EVERY COUPLE OF YEARS AT THAT COST.

I HAVE A 2016 HONDA ACCORD AND THE DRL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE HAVE BURNED OUT. I HAVE BEEN DOING RESEARCH ONLINE AND THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND THE 2017. MY CAR IS APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS ISSUE. TO MAKE MATTERS WORST, THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE HEADLIGHT AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY 600.

KNOWN ISSUE WOTH BAD DESIGN DRL. LEFT SIDE WENT OUT. ONLY HAD 22,000 MILES. RIGHT SIDE DIMMING ALSO. LEDS DO NOT LAST LONGER THAN HALOGEN HEAD LIGHT.
