2010 Honda Accord crosstour problems
The Honda Crosstour (initially branded the Accord Crosstour) is a mid-size crossover SUV with a sloping rear roofline manufactured by Japanese automaker Honda. It is based on the North American eighth-generation Accord. Sales began in November 2009 for the 2010 model year, and the vehicle was discontinued after the 2015 model year due to slow sales.
Design
The Crosstour was marketed as a "hatchback"/"wagon" variation of the Accord and shared the same platform. The Crosstour was powered by a 3.5-liter V6 engine (choice of either front-wheel or all-wheel drive) or 2.4-liter 4-cylinder engine (front-wheel drive only), with prices that started at $29,670, above those of the Accord sedan (which started at under $23,000). For the 2012 model year, Honda removed the "Accord" prefix, making the name just "Crosstour", and gave its front grille a restyle. A four-cylinder engine for front-wheel drive models was released in late 2011 and put on sale in early 2012.
The Crosstour was a direct competitor to the Toyota Venza, a crossover wagon based upon the Accord's perennial competitor, the Camry. And like the Venza, which was meant to replace the Camry wagon, the Crosstour was considered a successor to the Accord wagon.
In terms of positioning, the Crosstour slotted between the compact CR-V and fullsize Pilot in Honda's crossover SUV lineup, Compared to the Pilot, the Crosstour was longer but had two rows of seating compared to the Pilot's three and had approximately 50 cubic feet less interior space.
The Crosstour was sold in the United States, Canada, Mexico, China, Middle East, Southeast Asia and Russia. Guangqi Honda built and marketed the Crosstour in China.

- Recalled Airbags: The 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour has been subject to recalls related to airbags. In some cases, the front passenger airbag may not deploy as intended, placing an unbelted child seated in the front passenger seat at greater risk of injury should the airbag deploy.
- Automatic Transmission Control Module Software: A recall was issued for the 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour due to the potential for the automatic transmission control module software to cause the engine to stall. This issue could also result in the vehicle rolling after the driver has placed the gear selector in the park position, increasing the risk of a crash or personal injury to persons within the path of a rolling vehicle.
- Engine Wiring Harness Connector: Another recall was issued for the 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour due to a potential failure with the engine wiring harness connector. This issue may cause intermittent spark firing or the engine to stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
These issues have contributed to the 2010 Honda Accord Crosstour being identified as one of the worst model years for the vehicle, with engine problems being the most significant category of complaints.
What is the major problem of Honda Crosstour?
Some common issues reported by owners, according to Car Complaints, include: Problems with the VCM (Variable Cylinder Management) system lead to excessive oil consumption and potential engine damage.
Why did the Honda Crosstour fail?

After this last incident I was so shaken up I didn't know what to do until my brother in law told me to file a complaint before it happens to someone else that might not get lucky like I did and to call an attorney which is what I'm gonna do regardless of what they do about it. I'm a grown adult and could not get out of that car and if that were to happen to a child I don't wanna even think about what would happen and that is why I'm making this complaint so it can be fixed before it happens again if it already hasn't.

TIRES PROBLEM
- Date Of Incident: 2023-10-06
- VIN: 1HGCS2B85AA
- Components: TIRES
- Summary: 235/45R18 94S M+S I originally purchased these tires because they were rated #2 on top 10 anti-hydroplaning lists. After receiving the tires I realized the anti-hydroplaning characteristics are due to an unusually deep tire tread. After driving them a bit I realized that the tire compound had excessive lack of grip on lightly wet surfaces and often on dry surfaces. So they may be good for anti-hydroplaning as long as the tree depth is deep, but the worst traction for dry or slightly wet surfaces for ANY tire I have ever driven. Going down slight downhills with a turn is extremely dangerous even at slow speeds. This morning I was going down a short street with a slight grade and a turn at the bottom when the car failed to turn and continued straight (like on ice). These tires (same on my wife's Mazda) have had traction problems since we bought and installed them. My wife's Mazda won't go up hills with turns on dry pavement and at slow speeds without losing traction. All tires on both vehicles have decent tread depth. This is a dangerous driving condition on uphill/w turns and especially on downhill/w turns. I believe the NTSB should do an investigation into car accident deaths occurring on graded hills with turns at the top or bottom of the inclinations. The tire in suspect is the Firestone Winterforce 2 tire. Please investigate this to possibly save lives. And if a high accident rate is found please have these tires recalled.

I'm so glad I bought the Crosstour! It has everything I was looking for: space, utility, reliability, uniqueness, and a great price. I've been really happy with it so far. The build quality is excellent and the gas mileage has been better than I expected - I got 29 mpg on my first tank, mostly from highway commuting. It's a really fun car to drive and own, especially if you don't want or need an SUV but still want more utility than a regular sedan.

Traded in a TL for this. I'm so happy with my decision! This car has way more room than the TL, AWD, and loads of features. Although it's not as fun to drive as my TL, it's still a great car. Hopefully, Acura takes a cue here and builds out an equivalent Acura model. I got to use the car in deep, blowing snow this weekend and it was a champ!

I recently purchased this car after driving BMWs for the past decade. Although it drives a little less sporty, it offers so much more comfort, reliability, and ease of mind. I was sold on the 100,000 mile / 7 year warranty. The engine's response from 6 cylinders to 4 in city driving and 3 cylinders in stop and go is seamless, and the 4WD is so nice for Chicago winters. I no longer worry while driving on our snow-packed streets. I can't help but smile when I drive this car!

My wife is absolutely thrilled with her new car! We purchased it as a family/people mover and it has exceeded our expectations. We were pleasantly surprised by the value of this car, especially since we traded in a Lexus RX. The CrossTour is even more luxurious and flexible, and it uses regular unleaded fuel. Despite what the editor said about the dash, we actually prefer the buttons to the interface on our BMW and Lexus. Our CrossTour is Black on Black and it has been turning heads and receiving many compliments. The Black, White, and metallic gray colors look especially stunning, while the green is not as appealing.

I hope you love yours too!

Are you having problems with your 2010 Honda Accord crosstour?

I found a 2010 car with 59k miles and took it in for its first check and service, but unfortunately experienced some issues. On the way home, the engine light and traction control light came on, and the car was disabled. I took it in and they found that plug #1 was misfiring, so they changed all the plugs and did the 100k service. However, I had another misfire three months ago in the same spot at night, which was a bit strange. The service shop said it was the oil pump switch and replaced it, which seemed to work for about 8k miles, but then I had another misfire three nights ago, this time with the same #1 plug. I will be taking it in with the car saver warranty and the service bulletin I have. I'm not sure what's going on, but I've been reading about similar complaints and there was even a class action suit. Despite these issues, I still think my 4x4 car is great, but it has unfortunately not been very reliable due to this misfire problem.
