Just bought the car at 47,000 miles from a Ford dealership 2 weeks ago. In the last week it has failed to start 3 times. Once 3 days ago, once yesterday, and once this morning. All in the morning. A jump gets it going right away.

I stopped at O'Reillys and they told me the battery, alternator, and starter are fine. The batteries in the keys are low. The car was certified by the dealership. The car just clicks when I try to turn it on.

What gives?

 

Welcome!

Starters on the 2015s are failing both in and out of warranty. Unfortunately, when they fail out of warranty, Honda has been all over the place as far as goodwill toward repairs. Search this subforum for details.

If the car was certified from the dealership, take it back to them and ask them if "certification" covers starter repair. If it does, great. If it doesn't, contact Honda corporate and ask them if they can assist.

If they can't, I recommend going outside the Honda dealer network to get it fixed. No sense giving them anything toward labor costs to fix their bad part.

 

Sounds like a battery to me. Mine did the same. Even if it checks fine, it might not be. If it works with a Jump, not sure what else it could be.

 

I have a '15 with similar mileage, my car got wonky in March; started, then didn't, then did. New battery was the cure. That said, I'm starting to get regular starter grind. It used to be rare (the dealer 'couldn't duplicate the problem,' of course) but now it happens on the first start of the day at least.
