What You Need to Know About Your 2017 Honda Accord Warranty

Every new Honda vehicle, including the 2017 Honda Accord, comes with a Factory Warranty, also known as a Manufacturer’s Warranty. We’ve created this guide to help you determine whether your vehicle is still under warranty and if your coverage includes items such as tires, batteries, and paint. We’ve also included information about available extensions.

Please note the duration for each warranty is listed in years and miles, whichever comes first. For example, a three-year, 36,000-mile warranty will expire in three years or if you hit 36,000 miles in less than three years. The following is a snapshot of warranties provided by Honda:

Read on for details about each warranty. If you have additional questions, review our FAQ section at the bottom.

Factory Warranty

2017 Honda Accord Basic Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord came with a three-year, 36,000-mile Basic Warranty that started on the car’s original delivery date whether by purchase or lease. As of 2022, this warranty has expired. This warranty covered repairs and replacements for parts that were defective under normal use. Exclusions included everyday wear and tear, maintenance items, and most window glass damage.

2017 Honda Accord Powertrain Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord came with a five-year, 60,000-mile Powertrain Warranty that covered the engine, transmission, transaxle, front-wheel-drive system, and all-wheel-drive system. As of 2022, this warranty is about to expire or already has.

Corrosion Perforation Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord came with a five-year unlimited mileage Corrosion Perforation Warranty that covered any body panels rusted from the inside out. As of 2022, this warranty is about to expire or already has. If you’re the car’s original owner, contact your local Honda dealer to see if you can still take advantage of this warranty.

Air Conditioning Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord’s Basic Warranty covered air conditioner refrigerant for two years or 24,000 miles. As of 2022, this coverage has expired.

Paint Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord’s Manufacturer’s Warranty did not cover paint. The Corrosion Perforation Warranty does not cover paint matching or rust due to paint damage from road debris.

Battery Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord has a Replacement Battery Warranty that covered the cost of the 12-volt battery for the first three years or 36,000 miles. For the remaining 64 months, Honda will replace this battery at a prorated cost applying a credit of 5% to 60% for batteries purchased and installed at a Honda dealership.

The 2017 Honda Accord’s battery limited warranty does not apply to the high-voltage traction battery, which is covered under the Hybrid System Warranty that is good for eight years or 100,000 miles.

Tire Warranty

Honda does not provide warranty coverage for the 2017 Honda Accord’s tires. The tires that came as original equipment on your Accord are warrantied by their manufacturer in a separate warranty statement provided by the dealership.

Emissions Warranty

The 2017 Honda Accord came with a three-year, 36,000-mile Federal Emissions Warranty covering the repair and replacement of emissions system components defective under normal use. As of 2022, this warranty has expired. 

The Clean Air Act, however, requires manufacturers to cover the catalytic converter, engine computer, and on-board diagnostics for eight years or 80,000 miles.
