I got a call from the service manager at my dealership last Fri. He told me the software patch was here and all I needed to do was make an appointment. He said it only took about 20 min. to download to my car. I can't go in till the last of the week but hopefully by next week I will be able to report back.

Ok. Honda has the software update at the dealers now. I just stopped in my dealer and talked to the service mgr. Said he just got it and we can bring the car in anytime for the install. He said Honda is well aware of the complaints.
Now we'll see if they fix it.
I also asked if it would fix the poor audio quality issue? He said he wasn't sure but it was a good place to start.
I'm going to try and get it in next week and post an update.

I got the software update today at my dealership in Evansville, Indiana. Everything seems to be working great. The stereo sound is still disappointing but much better. At least I can now tell I have the sub at level 6... Nav works, voice calls work without locking up the system... just hope it lasts.

Glad to hear it at least helps the stereo. Hell, it can't get any worse.
My wife is taking ours in next week for the update.

Thanks for a great thread!!!
Fantastic thread as my wife has been pulling her hair out over these issues.
As an owner of a 2005 EX V6 w/Navi I couldn't wait to get the updated and highly praised 2013 Accord. We bought his and her's 2013 Accord EX-L's w/Navi on December 31. Identical cars except for the color. Mine has worked great (knock wood) since I drove it off the lot. Her's not so much. She has experienced the sound cut-off of sound system, navi, phone, etc. only to pull over and restart the car.
She took it to the dealer the first time only to have them say "we can't reproduce the problem". She got a hold of the service manager only to find out that his wife has a 2013 Accord with the same problems. I am going to have her call him tomorrow to see if our dealer here in Southern California has the fix.
Thanks for all the posts!
