2014 Honda Accord Service and Repair Manual

Known issues on the 2014 Accord. Four recalls are on federal record for this model year. The battery sensor case for the 12V battery management system can allow water intrusion, and the resulting electrical short raises the risk of a fire. Some four-cylinder Accords built in late July 2014 left the factory with improperly torqued connecting rod bolts, which can cause the engine to lose power or leak oil near hot exhaust components. Four-cylinder, CVT-equipped Accords sold in 23 listed states may have drive shafts assembled with a lubricant that degraded their protective coating, and a broken drive shaft can cause a sudden loss of drive power or let the vehicle roll away if the parking brake wasn't set. And a fuel pump inside the tank can fail, causing an engine stall while driving. Owners have filed 977 complaints for the year. The factory diagnostic and repair procedures behind each of those systems are here.

From a suspect battery sensor to a CVT drive shaft inspection or a hybrid-system service, it keeps you on the OEM procedure and the correct specification for your specific 2014 Accord.
