    Check Engine Light + Emission System + ACC

    So just driving on city streets today, I suddenly got an Adaptive Cruise Control error and the check engine light went on... a few seconds later, the Emission System Problem message came on (all in the center display of dashboard)... I lost a lot of power in the car... The light around the...

    Cold weather and electric miles

    Update - now with temps down to single digits, I get a full charge of about 8. Also noticed that when temps were higher (summer) and as soon as I plugged the charger (L1 or L2), I could hear a fan or something in the trunk go on - kinda like blowing air... Now I don't hear anything.... perhaps...

    Cold weather and electric miles

    Sorry, i didn't get a bulletin/recall number.... I did get a call from Honda asking me to take it to the nearest Honda dealer (they even made the appt for me). The dealer did confirm that there was something out about a guage not turning on or something for which this update was done.. BTW the...

    Cold weather and electric miles

    More issues being discovered now - I got a call from Honda regarding a recall. They needed me to take it to a dealer for a software update. It was regarding some guage not indicating - unrelated to all the battery issues I have seen... I did take it to the local dealer, but was skeptical since...

    Cold weather and electric miles

    I also noticed that when it kicks into the gas only mode (70+ mph), the remaining EV mles keep depleting upto 0.5 miles... That should not happen...one would think logically..... I have had no luck talking to the local Honda dealer as he is not familiar with the car... Does anyone know how to...

    Battery Range

    Update again - Now I am barely getting a charge of 9 miles per charge (120 or 240)... Anyone experiencing this degrading capacity issue? I don't live in a state that has "certified" PHEV Honda techs... and I do not know who to contact at Honda... I am concerned I have a bad battery.... Any help...

    Limited production of Accord Plug-ins

    Interestingly, when I was shopping over the phone and to see availability.. these Tarrytown guys quoted me a MSRP... I went there to take a look at the car and when I discussed the price, these guys now jacked up the price to $2000 above MSRP.... Needless to say with their "cool" tactics, I did...

    Gas mileage

    Yeah, I was very happy with this since I traded in my 2009 Accord Ex and drove this back... Much smoother... but my 2009 was a V6 and I did miss my powerful acceleration at times.... once I was in cruise mode, it was a much smoother journey...

    Gas mileage

    I drove about 1100 miles in a trip... Got and average of 49 mpg. Charged on the way twice at Nissan dealers and once using the HV Charge mode (fastest way to charge, but most punitive on gas mileage).... I arrived at my destination with half a tank (a month ago) and since then have not filled up...

    HV Mode

    Can folks comment on when to "specifically" switch to the HV mode using the button by the gear shifter? I understand the HV CHARGE MODE, but pure HV? I have not touched that since I bot the car... I let the power algorithm decide when to switch to HV/EV/Gas only (I can see the Vehicle energy...

    Battery Range

    Just an update to all since starting this topic... I charge using the 120V charger every night. It still gives me 14ish range on display when I leave every morning... My work is about 15 miles one way so by the time I get to work and with the street driving (some recharging going on due to soft...

    Battery Range

    Hi All, I got mine about 2 weeks ago... Noticed that in the beginning when I fully charge using the 120V adapter, I used to get 15.1-15.3 mile range... Couple of times using the 240V charger, I got 16.1 range on a full battery.... lately, using either of those, I am only seeing a 14.0-14.1 mile...
