Had issues starting for several months. Would hear a single click, then nothing. Often took a few tries before starter would engage, but it would immediately fire up once it did (i.e., it was not straining once it engaged). Battery tested fine and lights did not indicate an electrical problem.
Seems to be a common problem with the 9th gen. Dealers usually quote several hundred to replace the starter, so I did it myself with aftermarket part. No issues since. Still need to tear down the old starter and see if I can figure out what was wrong with it.
Battery Status Monitor recall. Replaced. No charge to owners.

US $124
Car would not start after sitting a few days...or less... took to dealer to figure what was draining battery... put on tester... charged me $125 and said could find nothing...when they attempted to move car it would not start... they then determined it had a bad battery and for the price of a new Honda battery.. about 125 it would be ok... I declined since they already stuck me for about that amount and told the rep I'd get one at Walmart.. I travel a good deal and there is more likely to be a Walmart than a Honda store around me.. plus I wasn't too happy about a charge with no resulting decision of problem... car has been fine since...this was actually the third time I'd taken it to a dealer but the only one that charged me to test the car. The others made wrong diagnosis but did not charge.
