2010 Honda Accord Problems
Vibration When Braking Due to Rotor Problem
The front brake rotors can warp and cause a vibration when braking. The rotors will need to be machined or in cases where they are worn to thin, replaced to correct this issue.
Front Compliance Bushings May Crack
Front compliance (lower control arm ) bushings tend to crack and break requiring replacement.
Power Door Locks to Activate Intermittently
Power door locks can activate intermittently due to a faulty door lock actuator in the driver's door.
Problems Shifting Into 3rd Gear
Some models have shift quality problems when shifting into third gear. A new "third gear set" from Honda will address this issue.
Plugged Moon Roof Drains May Cause Water Leak
Plugged moon roof drains can cause a water leak inside the car. The water will usually leak onto the driver's or passenger's head when the car turns a corner.
ABS Modulator May Leak Air and Cause Low Brake Pedal
The ABS modulator (hydraulic unit) can leak air into the brake system and cause a low brake pedal. A new ABS modulator will be needed if it is diagnosed to be the source of the leak.
Check Engine Light Due to Air Fuel Sensor Fault
The air/fuel sensor, located in the exhaust system, may be damaged by moisture in the exhaust resulting in illumination of the Check Engine Light. Replacing the damaged air/fuel sensor and updating the powertrain control module (PCM) software should correct this concern.
Dome light may not work due to poor electrical ground
A poor electrical ground can cause the dome light not to work.
Mis-manufactured AC evaporator
On some models a mis-manufactured AC evaporator core can cause the AC to cool poorly. The AC evaporator needs to be replaced for the AC to cool properly.
Bad rear hub/bearing unit
When reaching approx. 30 mph a "roaring" sound started coming from the rear of the car. Turned out to be a bad right rear hub/bearing unit - which was covered under 60k mile warranty. There is a TSB 10-028 that has been issued.
