Consumer Description

I HAVE A TOURING TRIM OF THE HONDA ACCORD 2016, MEANING IT HAS A V6 ENGINE. AT AROUND 38,000 MILES, THE STARTER STARTED ACTING UP. WHEN I TRY TO START IT, IT MAKES A GRINDING NOISE AND WON'T START. I LIVED WITH IT FOR A LITTLE BIT BECAUSE I'M USUALLY ABLE TO GET IT TO START AFTER A COUPLE OF ATTEMPTS. I BOUGHT A BRAND NEW STARTER FROM HONDA, INSTALLED IT, AND THE CAR WORKED PERFECTLY AGAIN. IT STARTED EVERY TIME. 1 WEEK LATER AND THE ISSUE STARTED HAPPENING AGAIN. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AS OFTEN, BUT IT SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING AT ALL. IT'S A BRAND NEW STARTER AND I'M HAVING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AS BEFORE. IT HAPPENS LIKE ONCE A DAY NOW. THE OLD STARTER WAS GIVING ME ISSUES EVERY OTHER TIME I TRIED TO START THE CAR. WON'T BE LONG BEFORE THE SAME HAPPENS WITH THIS BRAND NEW ONE.
