The 2019 Honda Accord is one of the more popular mid-size cars on the road. Since its debut, the Accord has provided many drivers with years of service. Even the 2019 model is said to be “engineered to take you farther.” Yet, many of today’s consumers find that the newer Accord isn’t built like those of days gone by. It seems to suffer from defective service brakes, malfunctioning electronic stability control and faulty steering.

Problems with the Brakes
When driving on the road, it’s vital that the brakes stop the vehicle on time. Otherwise, a crash might occur and injury would be possible. The 2019 Honda Accord seems to have a lot of trouble with the braking system.
Here is one review left on the NHTSA website that demonstrates what can happen. “When I brake from a speed of 30-40 mph, the pedal feel is not smooth throughout the braking motion. First, I start to brake but I do not slow down, only when I press even harder does the brake engage but at that point it is a heavy brake making the car lunge forward. Basically the brakes only engage when I press harder on the pedal but doing so makes the braking not smooth. This uncertainty when the brakes will engage makes for a dangerous situation when driving in stop and go traffic. I have to heavily concentrate on braking. My car is brand new with only 1450 miles on it. I took it to the dealer but they do not believe my story even when they test drive.”
It appears that Honda is aware of braking problems with this model. Service Bulletin #APaS09252019903 talks about pulsation in the brakes at highway speeds. While they didn’t issue a repair for it, they were using the bulletin to do further investigation. In the meantime, it seems that the dealers aren’t willing to hear customer complaints about the problem. Maybe the brakes don’t work so the driver can be “taken farther.”
Here are some actual complaints logged with the NHTSA about the 2019 Honda Accord Brake Problems:
2019 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ABS FAILURE. THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING A VEHICLE CUT IN FRONT AND THE AND THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM DID NOT ENGAGE.
APPLYING BRAKES GIVES A NON-LINEAR RESPONSE THAT MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO BRAKE SMOOTHLY AND SAFELY. APPLYING THE BRAKES RESULTS IN VARYING RESPONSES THAT APPEARS NOT TO BRAKE AND THEN SUDDENLY GRABS. I SUSPECT THAT THERE IS EITHER AIR IN THE SYSTEM OR PART FAILURE OF THE BRAKE BOOSTER OR MASTER CYLINDER. DEALER SAID THAT IT IS “NORMAL” BRAKE RESPONSE FOR THIS MODEL OF VEHICLE EVEN THOUGH THE SALESMAN AND SERVICE TECH FELT THE PROBLEM UPON DRIVING. ALSO HAD COLLISION BRAKE MITIGATION PROBLEM LIGHT GO OFF ON MY WAY HOME FROM DEALER.
Problems with the Electronic Stability Control (Collision Mitigation System)
On today’s modern vehicles, there is electronic stability control, collision mitigation systems and other avoidance programs to keep drivers safe. When these systems fail, drivers are left in danger.
We see one case of this failure through an NHTSA review. “With only less than 800 miles on the car, my 2019 Honda Accord VSA modulator (which was diagnosed by the dealership) failed. I felt the car begin to bog on the highway right before we were on the exit. Then, the gas pedal stopped working properly and the car lost speed. I would press hard on the gas pedal and the car would take about 3 seconds before it started to move forward, jerking in the direction I intended it to go. After struggling a little while, I luckily pulled over and called a tow truck to send my car to the dealership. I felt that I was very lucky to be able to safely pull over. 1st, it happened during an early Sunday morning with heavy rain, so there was not much traffic. 2nd, the event occurred right before we were going to exit the highway with only a few hundred feet to go. Also, it’s in my hometown and I know the road very well. Otherwise, an uncontrollable car could cause very serious accident. If we were to crash, the event would likely be attributed to driver fault – since it is such a new car – rather than a crucial car part failing, which could cause death to many others who buy new Honda Accord 2019s. Therefore, I believe that this issue should not be taken lightly and should be further investigated.”
Honda knows about these issues. They even discuss how the adaptive cruise control and Collision Mitigation Braking system malfunction in Service Bulletin # 19-051. To repair the problem, technicians must upgrade the software. If the company wants this car to take drivers farther, these advanced systems must work better. Otherwise, customers might not decide to continue paying the premium price for Honda durability and might opt for a cheaper model that will take them farther instead.
Here are some actual complaints logged with the NHTSA about the 2019 Honda Accord Collision Mitigation System Problems:
WITH ONLY LESS THAN 800 MILES ON THE CAR, MY 2019 HONDA ACCORD VSA MODULATOR (WHICH WAS DIAGNOSED BY THE DEALERSHIP) FAILED. I FELT THE CAR BEGIN TO BOG ON THE HIGHWAY RIGHT BEFORE WE WERE ON THE EXIT. THEN, THE GAS PEDAL STOPPED WORKING PROPERLY AND THE CAR LOST SPEED. I WOULD PRESS HARD ON THE GAS PEDAL AND THE CAR WOULD TAKE ABOUT 3 SECONDS BEFORE IT STARTED TO MOVE FORWARD, JERKING IN THE DIRECTION I INTENDED IT TO GO. AFTER STRUGGLING A LITTLE WHILE, I LUCKILY PULLED OVER AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK TO SEND MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP.I FELT THAT I WAS VERY LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER. 1ST, IT HAPPENED DURING AN EARLY SUNDAY MORNING WITH HEAVY RAIN, SO THERE WAS NOT MUCH TRAFFIC. 2ND, THE EVENT OCCURRED RIGHT BEFORE WE WERE GOING TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY WITH ONLY A FEW HUNDREDS OF FEET TO GO. ALSO, IT’S IN MY HOMETOWN AND I KNOW THE ROAD VERY WELL. OTHERWISE, AN UNCONTROLLABLE CAR COULD CAUSE VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT. IF WE WERE TO CRASH, THE EVENT WOULD LIKELY BE ATTRIBUTED TO DRIVER FAULT – SINCE IT IS SUCH A NEW CAR – RATHER THAN A CRUCIAL CAR PART FAILING, WHICH COULD CAUSE DEATH TO MANY OTHERS WHO BUY NEW HONDA ACCORD 2019S. THEREFORE, I BELIEVE THAT THIS ISSUE SHOULD NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY AND SHOULD BE FURTHER INVESTIGATED.
I WAS DRIVING AT THE SPEED OF 45 MPH IN CITY STREET AREA WHEN VEHICLE SENSOR TO BREAK SUDDENLY APPEARED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO MAKE A COMPLETE STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET, THERE WAS NO SIGNS OF PEDESTRIANS OR ANY VEHICLE TO CAUSE THE VEHICLE SENSOR TO TURN ON AND BREAK. THE VEHICLE DROVE AS NORMAL AFTER THE COMPLETE STOP AND BREAKING SENSOR APPEARED.
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN MY NEW 2019 HONDA ACCORD WHICH IS JUST AT IT’S 3768 MILES, AND THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM, COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM AND ROAD DEPARTURE SYSTEM FAILED. IT SHOWED A MESSAGE TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. UPON RESTARTING THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE SOLVED. I GOT THE CAR COUPLE OF MONTHS AGO, SO I HAVE THEIR MAY 2019 SOFTWARE UPDATE WHICH SUPPOSEDLY WOULD FIX THIS PROBLEM WITH 10TH GEN ACCORDS, BUT IT DIDN’T. THE DEALERS AND HONDA CORPORATE KEEP RESPONDING THAT HONDA DOESN’T HAVE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM YET, WHICH IS GOING ON FOR OVER A YEAR NOW FOR MANY OWNERS, WHICH CAN EASILY BE FOUND BY A GOOGLE SEARCH. PLEASE HELP US.
Problems with the Steering
One of the other systems on Honda Accord vehicles that customers expect to work well is the steering. While heading down the road, all occupants want to know that the car is going to travel in the direction that it should.
Yet, look at what this NHTSA reviewer had to say. “I bought this vehicle and noticed on the way home from dealer that I had a vibration in the steering. At 62 mph the vibration was very bad. I called the dealer and they said the weight on the wheel probably came off. I drove the vehicle 300 miles and took it to the dealer. They removed the wheel and tire and found a bulge on front tire. They replaced the tire and today I got an email from Honda Motor stating that was not a Honda problem and I needed to contact the tire company [Hankook]. This car should have never been sold and the defect should have been caught either with the tire manufacture or by Honda when it was installed. Their take on this is almost like it is my fault I selected the wrong car.”
The automaker doesn’t have any service bulletins related to the steering or tire situation. They have instead chosen to remain quiet in these situations. Considering the tires and steering are the systems that “take you farther,” it would make sense that they wouldn’t want to draw attention to any problems. It seems that their engineers need to spend a little more time perfecting these systems before making promises to consumers.
Here are some actual complaints logged with the NHTSA about the 2019 Honda Accord Steering Problems:
HAVE TAKEN MY BRAND NEW 2019 HONDA ACCORD SPORT 1.5 TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS DUE TO MY CAR NOT TRACKING STRAIGHT. EACH TIME A MINOR TWEAK WAS DONE TO THE ALIGNMENT. AFTER RESEARCHING A BIT MORE I FOUND THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE GEAR BOX BEING FAULTY (53620-TWA-A28) WHICH CAUSES THE TRACKING TO BE OFF WITH AND WITHOUT LANE KEEP ASSIST ENGAGED. I AM TRYING TO GET THIS ISSUE RECTIFIED AND AWAITING DEALER FEEDBACK. I HAVE CONTACTED THE DEALER AND MADE THEM AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE 2018 AND 2019 ACCORDS ARE VERY SIMILAR AND THE ISSUE IS PRESENT IN 2018S…. MY BUILD MONTH AND YEAR WAS NOVEMBER 2018.

| Description | On 01-31-2023 at 5pm my accord (2019, 27k miles) experienced a limp mode condition on the highway forcing me to pull over onto the shoulder and restart the car. I was traveling for 4+ hours in rain / misting rain on the way to north carolina for a business trip. I went to pass a slow moving vehicle, and the car's check engine light began to flash 2 seconds after I hit the accelerator. The car's check engine light began to flash and the car would not exceed 40mph, indicating it had entered a limp mode condition. This forced me to pull over onto the shoulder. After a restart, the car performed as normal with no cel. I took the car to advance auto parts to see if the ecu captured any codes - 3 “pending†codes were stored - p0300 random misfire, p0301 cylinder 1 misfire, p0304 cylinder 4 misfire. I took the car to shockley honda in frederick md on 02/06/2023 and the pending codes had cleared / a diagnosis of possible traction control engagement was given - I am 100% certain this was the check engine light / limp mode, and that this is an incorrect diagnosis. Honda has a tsb for this exact issue: https://www. Driveaccord. Net/attachments/a21-052-pdf. 531063/ additionally I have dash camera footage to collaborate my account of events, including the event occurring; pulling over on the side of the road; and the trip to advance auto, where you can hear me reading the codes car entering limp mode on highway: https://youtu.

| Description | Is honda ever going to correct their air conditioning issues? This is the second vehicle from honda that I've purchased brand new that has a/c issues in under a year. The first time, I just stuck it out and sweated to death in my car until my lease ended, now I can't do that for the safety of my children while living in the deep south. It's incredibly dangerous for drivers to sit in a hot car- even if the windows are down. |

| Description | Travelling at approximately 47 mph, with nothing in front of me, the car's emergency braking system engaged completely unexpectedly, slamming my car to a stop. This caused a pick-up truck, to hit me from behind. The emergency brake light appeared at the exact same time as the car's emergency brakes applied. The driver of the other car confirmed there was nothing in front of me. The honda dealer where I brought the car the next day stated there was nothing wrong with the camera or radar system. This failure caused an accident, and could have been much worse. |

| Description | I purchased a 2019 certified pre-owned honda accord touring hybrid in february, 2022. This was the second honda accord touring hybrid I've owned, so I was already very familiar with this vehicle. Over the next couple months, I started experiencing some odd things - the lkas and lane departure systems weren't operating correctly consistently. For example, the steering wheel would start shaking and warning lights pop up on my dash, and the steering wheel is pulling to one direction thinking I'm veering into another lane when I'm not. This was concerning, but at the time the infotainment system was crashing regularly and that was more concerning. In addition, the automatic emergency braking also seemed to be off, engaging at times when there wasn't a vehicle in front of me. In may, 2022 I was driving on the highway with the adaptive cruise control set to 70mph (the posted speed limit). There were no other cars on the highway in my line of sight, when without warning, the automatic emergency braking system engaged and the car slammed on the brakes, coming to nearly a complete stop. Alarms, lights and brakes all fully engaged in a sudden and unexpected manner, absolutely putting my life at risk. I was so shaken up by this experience that I had to pull over and compose myself before continuing on to my destination. I took the vehicle in to my local honda dealership and told them of all the issues. To date, the only issue fixed is the infotainment system. I've taken my vehicle in to honda multiple times, and although trouble-shooting and 'fixes' have been done, within a couple of weeks from the 'fix', the car starts behaving like this again. Honda repeatedly says they can't find a problem or they've 'fixed' the problem. Clearly there is a problem and none of the 'fixes' have worked. I don't feel safe driving the car, but cannot afford to replace it. |

| Description | I saw that this is already under investigation by nhtsa and want to add my name to the list. The car randomly brakes at times for no reason which I find extremely dangerous. It's never caused an accident for me, but I've had at least a dozen near misses of being rear-ended. I've tried to turn off the automatic braking but it still randomly slams on the brakes by itself. This system needs to be disabled as it's just a ticking time bomb.

| Description | 2019 honda accord lx I purchased this car late september in 2022 from mclarty honda in little rock, ar with less than 25,000 miles. To date the brakes have locked up multiple times on my way to work for no reason whatsoever and I have a witness to every time. I would be driving down hwy46 headed to sheridan, ar and the brakes would engage for no reason and completely stop my car in the middle of the road. Nothing would be in the road for it to sense/detect or whatever to even need to apply the brakes. I recorded a video of the brakes smoking like my car was on fire just yesterday morning when I got to work. I've called the dealership multiple times and they have no response or reason for why my car is doing this, I have even scheduled it to be repaired two times and the dealership hasn't been able to fix the problem and it pisses me off they are even able to sell such a piece of shit vehicle. The dealership along with honda should be held accountable, apparently they have known about this issue since 2015 and yet to do anything to correct the issue just swept it under the rug and left the consumer to deal with their problems. Whats even worse is congress has made it a law that new vehicles are required to have this worthless piece of technology installed on each vehicle, smh like they have any clue what the american people want or need lol and why is it taking so long for nhsta to get a response from honda? This is ridiculous and the people who are in charge need to get off their butt and get something done for the people instead of their pocketbook. Real talk |

| Description | We own a honda accord with approximately 39,405 miles on it when we took it to the bob howard honda dealership located at 13201 north kelley oklahoma city, ok 73131 for repair/diagnosis on august 25, 2022. The failure of the honda included every sensor displaying in the vehicle from emission to lane change, etc. The dealership stated that the only code they noticed was a low fuel pressure but there was no issue other than that and these new cars are sensitive to low gas in vehicles which they felt contributed to every emergency sensor warning displayed with safety issues. We picked vehicle back up and on august 27, 2022, my wife was stranded cause the vehicle just stopped and would not start again with the same codes as before. Just quit running while driving which was very unsafe for my wife. It took well over 3 hours waiting for vehicle to be towed cause honda doesn't have a shift release easily accessible on their accord models when vehicle is unable to start and to be put in neutral cause it won't start. We had vehicle towed back to bob howard honda and on monday, august 29, 2022 they stated it needed a fuel pump which would cost around 07. 00. However, the fuel pumps are on back order with no timeframe for delivery and the warranty for this vehicle expired apparently at 36,000 miles. First off fuel pump should not have failed this soon for a brand new honda accord or any vehicle for that matter. This is a failure in manufacturing. |

| Description | As I was driving down the interstate, it had been raining hard, but the speed had increased and we were going around 70-75, speed limit 70. I was in the far left lane when the lane all of a sudden was ending. I had to work my way over fast, so I kicked it to move over to the next lane, and when I did, I lost all power in the vehicle. I was terrified !! I did have enough speed to get over one lane but there was a lot of traffic and I had to get over another one to stop on the shoulder. It was close but we did get over and stop without causing an accident. If I had of hit someone or someone hit me, it would have been a multi car accident with all the traffic and probably someone being killed, including my husband and I. This needs to be investigate before someone is killed . |

Then on july 23, 2022, I incurred the same engine failures as noted by the warning and error lights on my display panel. The car started slowing down while I was on the expressway creating a safety hazard but I was able to drive it to performance honda. The manager explained that the car needed a turbo and they had to asked honda to approve the purchase to install it into my car. I dont know if the turbo is new or used or even under warranty but performance honda contacted me on august 8 and said again the engine was repaired. I've read where there are other owners experiencing similar issues. My car was still within warranty of my purchase date july 17, 2019 and the repairs were made under the warranty but I still incurred rental car expenses that have not been reimbursed to date. |

I would check tire pressure and it is normal 33-34psi which is the recommended tire pressure by honda. I would recalibrate the tpms and it would turn back on after driving 20 miles. I do this daily and honda dealers claim there is no issue. When I turn on a curving road if there are cars parked on the street the emergency brake system would turn on and start braking. |

| Description | Aeb was applied three times without need since I have owned the car (purchased used in may 2022). All three times were not warranted and I was nearly rear ended once. First time occurred while merging onto a highway. The aeb system appeared to confuse the concrete dividing wall (which ends at the merge point) and braked unexpectedly. I was nearly rear ended. Second instance occurred while traveling at highway speed on a two lane freeway. I was in the left lane and a vehicle in the right lane began to slowly approach the dividing line (never crossed) and the aeb system activated. Third instance occurred when changing lanes on a two lane highway (right lane to left lane). Car braked suddenly for no reason. It appeared to confuse a large black patch (fresh road repair) in the middle of the road with an obstruction. No other cars were present. |

| Description | [xxx] vehicle has stalled in the middle of the highway 2 times, and would shut off mid drive. Both times the car would shut off, start loosing speed and go into limp mode, and then stop. When trying to turn the car on, the whole dash board would light up with different errors, rdm problem, tpms, cmbs, engine system error, electric power steering, adaptive cruise etc. I have taken the vehicle 3 weeks prior to the latest incident to a local dealer, dean honda (911 clairton blvd, pittsburgh, pa 15236), and they said they couldn't find the issue or cause. I have video and picture evidence of problem. Looking at the vehicle model, 2019 honda accord, there are 3 recalls which describe my issue, but when entering the vin number says that my specific vehicle does not have any recalls. This is very dangerous, not only for the occupants of the vehicle, but also other vehicles driving on the road, as I was in a close call 2 times already while driving the vehicle, and the dealer, and honda are not doing anything to prevent the issue from reoccurring.

| Description | Hello, I am writing to you about my 2019 honda accord hybrid. This vehicle make and model had over 600,000 safety recalls for the denso fuel pump. When I input the vehicle on honda for recall info, nothing shows up. I took it to a local honda dealer but they did not check the fuel pump instead told me it was other issues. I was driving my vehicle on the freeway after my first honda visit and my vehicle suddenly lost power and the check engine light started flashing ( I have videos of this if needed). There was a truck behind me and I almost got hit by the truck which was a significant issue to my safety. I also started to smell gas. These are all signs of a bad fuel pump. I understand that my vehicle does not pop up on the recall with the vin number but being it the same make and model with similar symptoms, I would like to see what nhtsa can do to inform me of the recall as my vehicle possibly might have a bad fuel pump ( which should be covered under this recall). |

| Description | There have been two incidents where my 2019 honda accord braked extremely hard and it was out of my control. The first incident was while I was exiting a highway on a rainy night at approximately 30mph, I had cars behind me that had to brake extremely hard due to my braking system which could have caused a rear end collision. The second incident was while I was driving approximately 50mph on a small two lane highway, I had other cars behind that had to swerve to avoid a collision once again. My car also detects many crack repairs on the highway as lane lines and attempts to depart the actual lane. I have to force the steering wheel to stay in the accurate lane. Unfortunately, I no longer feel safe driving my own car. |

| Description | I am filing this complaint because I just took in my 2019 honda accord to the honda service department so they can look at the issue with the sensor lights that are going off in my car. I thought it was a simple malfunction with the sensors but they came back telling me that there is a misfire issue with the engine causing the sensor lights to engage and all going off at the same time. My car only has 37000 miles on it and its less than 3 years old. I've taken the car to a 3rd party mechanic for regular maintenance work and its up to date on oil changes and all other maintenance that is required for the car. The honda folks submitted for the warranty to cover the repairs of 00 to replace the head gasket replacement along with the machining of the engine head. I have not gotten into an accident now have I used my car to race anyone that would cause the car to warp to that point. I think this is a defect and the honda warranty folks are just using the excuse that I was using a 3rd party mechanic to fix this issue to avoid having to pay for the repairs. I cannot afford this repair 00. I still have to make car payments as well as the insurance on the car for something fairly new. Can you help in any way with this? |

| Description | Hi. Just looking for information on how to go about with my car. A few months ago, I was driving within my city in the residential area, and while I was driving, my car quickly, like for 3 seconds, just lost power, there was no warning lights or anything that came on, it just felt like I accidentally touched the brakes real quick while driving, but I didn't. Fast forward to friday. I was driving home from work on the interstate. There was a big rig gas carrier truck next to me, and all of a sudden with my foot still on the gas my car felt like it was loosing power as if I was putting my foot on the brake, it was at least for 30 seconds as if it was about to come to a complete stop in the middle of the highway, im grateful there was no car behind me, because I really probably would have died getting hit from behind and probably hitting the gas tanker.. But when it did slow down my car swerved and I almost hit the big rig gas carrier truck, but I had to swerve back over into my lane, and about time I got back into my lane the power in the car picked back up (like nothing happened) and I was able to drive home but I just drove slow because I was scared. I almost died, it was scary, and now im afraid to drive my car. I shouldn't be having this problem my car is only 3 years old. I just got this car a few years ago brand new and still paying for it, and I'm trying to see how I can go about this, is it fixable? I have not taken it in to a dealer yet, but from looking it up on line there is a lawsuit going on from hondas in my year of this happening, that the honda dealers don't know whats going on yet either. |

It was a very rough yank. It's something I would expect at a near collision situation. But there wasn't anything ahead of my car in hundreds of feet. I believe the automatic emergency breaking misfired. I am very concerned about driving with it engaged now, so I have to turn it off every time I start my car. There is no way to turn it off permanently. |

| Description | When I make a turn left or right even the slightest turn on the road and no matter the speed the traction control lights up and immediately at the same time the breaks are applied automatically by the car itself, making my car slow down thus putting me in danger of being hit by the car(s) behind me. Then, all the warning lights start to appear on the dashboard. And they stay on for about 30 - 40 mins then they disappear but themselves. Stopping the car and turning it back on doesn't make them disappear. I've taken the car to the deanship and they said it was the alignment of the tires and that they fixed it but as soon as I drove off the dealership it happened again. I happens every single time I drive. I'm afraid to take the freeway because the self breaking system is so abrupt that it's a miracle that I've not been hit by another yet. I've had this issue since at least 25th of january of this year 2022. For a car to apply breaks by itself because I'm making a slight turn is dangerous and it's only a matter of time before someone gets seriously injured or worse. I was scared today because I was going 27miles an hour on a regular street when the car applied breaks by itself and the car behind me honked at me. But I never even touched the break paddle. Please take this issue seriously, it's very dangerous to drive like this. |

| Description | On march 22, 2022, while at a stop light the brake pedal started going towards floor. As I was driving, the brake light system came on and went off a couple of times. I called the dealership and the car was taken in on saturday, march 26th, 2022. When they moved the car, they told me the brakes felt squishy. On tuesday, march 29th, 2022, I received a call from dealership. I was told the car didn't throw any codes and honda would not let them fix the brake booster. I was then told, my accord had a test booster put on it by honda. I was never notified of this before purchasing car. Had I been told, I would not have bought car. I was told this is normal for the brake system to do, per honda of north america. If this is normal, how come it started 2 weeks ago and not 3 years ago?? There is something wrong with the brakes on this car and I would like the booster to be replaced. I've been in contact with stirling honda in longview wa who tried to get honda to approve booster replacement. I've also been in contact with honda of burlington, wa as they called to see if I was going to return car or buy it(I'm leasing). Honda of burlington has been less than helpful. Been told, honda will not replace and there's nothing wrong with the car. Brake pedal should not be going to floor. When I start car, brake pedal will go to approximately 1" from floor. I've also had issues with car braking on freeway... There isn't a car in front of me. I have a picture of brake pedal going to floor while my car is parked in my driveway. It is on my cell phone and am not able to attach to this complaint. Can email if needed. |

There were no cars in front of me or any obstructions in the way that would have activated the emergency braking. This is the second time in a year my car has done this, but the first time that the braking changed the vehicle's direction. |

| Description | This is a follow up for nhtsa complaint 11452424. After the engine light came on along with other warning lights, like a christmas tree and taking the vehicle to a honda dealership with a almost 3700. 00 repair bill for a vehicle with with under 88,000 miles. The dealership said the vehicle needed a head gasket. The problem is the dealership did not provide the error code numbers. They just gave a price due too coolant going into cylinder number 3. I asked the service rep for a break down the for repairs, which he said was provided. The only thing provided was coolant leaking into cylinder 3 with no codes that the dealership found with the engine light on. I filed a complaint with honda to off set the repair cost. Mind you we are talking about a head gasket. Honda denied the claim and referred to lack of maintenance. When I told the representative I do my maintenance. He said it was because the dealership wasn't making money. Who in their right mind would pay 144. 00 an hour maintenance when they can't be up front and provide codes that were thrown on engine light for repair bill. I think nhtsa needs to investigate honda's technical service bulletins regarding cylinder misfires in 1,2,3 and 4. I am quite skeptical that a dealership can not list error codes on a repair estimate that they aren't hiding something. My family will never purchase another honda and I will share this story with everyone I know. Something is being hidden if the dealership doesn't provide error codes. I have never seen this in my 30 plus years of driving. |

| Description | Sudden engine power loss; merging to highway speed was not possible. Risk to safety was the loss was when needing to merge with traffic at highway speeds. The dealership could not reproduce the problem. The check engine light did come on, but no codes were generated. The check engine light extinguished before the vehicle could be taken to the dealership. Only possible symptom, prior to the event, and still existing, is a lack of power, compared to when it was new. The dealership cannot confirm the cause of this power loss. There are other indications that there is a controls/computer problem, in my opinion. Power assist is not always available, but then suddenly engages, causing the car to jerk. My conclusion is that the vehicle does not immediately recognize the steering input. The problem is most pronounced when traveling straight, on the highway and needing to make a mild lane correction to maintain the lane. The vehicle does not immediately recognize the mild steering input until the steering wheel has been turned significantly. Once the steering wheel has been turned significantly and the steering input is recognized, the power steering engages, causing a sudden jerk and a need to recover control. The dealership has not been able to reproduce this problem. I have been able to temporarily resolve it, by momentarily engaging the lane keep assist. Normal, expected power assisted steering is recovered for a period of time. |

| Description | Multiple time the car will apply the emergency braking system when there are no cars in front of me. Mainly it happens on a multi-lane road and I am overtaking the car to the right of me, especially if I am on a curve to the left. The car will suddenly apply the brakes which can aid to the loss of control of the car. If the road were icy, it would almost certainly cause a loss of control and an accident. It has happened on a straight stretch of road, but it is more rare. Initially this was a rare occasion, however it has increased in frequency as the car ages. Now that the warrantee has expired I have not taken it in to have it checked, but I feel I am going to need to do it. There were no warning signs, lamps, or messages other than the brakes being applied and the emergency braking light coming on. When I saw there were other occurrences of this issue, I had to file this complaint. I believe this needs to be a recall issue before more serious injuries or fatalities occur. Below it asked when it happened, how many miles on the car, and the answer is multiple times at multiple speed and first started at around 20,000 miles. Again it has gotten worse over time. The car currently has about 46,000 miles |

| Description | I would like to add a comment on the "phantom braking" as I have experienced it with my car several times. I am glad to see a formal investigation has been launched. I think a way to try and replicate this issue is to attempt to pass another vehicle (that is in the adjacent lane) but ensuring you are doing this on a curved road way. ... At some point the accord gets "confused" when it looks liked it is "lined up" behind the other vehicle in the adjacent lane. It is real.. Please find a solution and bring this to a resolution. Feel free to contact me for further explanation. I cannot recall the exact date this incident has happened to me; hence I am putting in today's date. |

| Description | I saw nhtsa is investigating some honda vehicles for unnecessary emergency braking incidents. I've had this problem as well and wanted to report it. The 2019 honda accord hybrid, multiple times over the past 3+ years, has engaged the brakes when there were no cars in front of me. From my recollection this happens at medium to high speeds (40mph+) so if someone were behind me they may rear-end my car. This has happened probably a half dozen times over the past 3 years but there is no way to reliably reproduce it as it seems random. I haven't had any inspections, nor are there any warning lamps or messages relating to this. Note: the date I am including is not necessarily when it happened as I don't have those dates. But it's required. |

| Description | at two different times on a heavily traveled, high-speed road, the dashboard crash warning activated even though no other vehicle or obstacle was in the vicinity. The car did not slow a great amount or come to a stop; but had it done so, I could easily have been rear-ended by another vehicle. I have not asked that a dealer, independent service center, or honda check this. Until recently reading of the nhtsa investigation, I assumed my car had experienced an isolated glitch that would be difficult to identify. The incident date entered on this report is not accurate. I do not recall the dates, which were sometime during 2020 and 2021. |

| Description | For more than the past two years I have been experiencing unexpected braking while driving my 19 accord. There have been probably 20-30 random incidents.... Generally when I am changing lanes.. I think? The braking lasts for 2-3 seconds and then all returns to normal. This has happened when other cars are near and when there is no other car ahead or behind. On at least a couple occasions I received a nasty horn from the car behind me due to my unexpected braking and more than once an uncomplimentary comment from my wife about my driving skill. Several times I feared being rear ended. I explained this braking action as my failure to use the turn signal when changing lanes. Upon reconsidering and after reading the recent nhtsa alert, this is a sensor/software problem in the esc/emergency braking system. Please give this issue your prompt attention. I am the retired engineering manager of the braking system subsidiary of honda motors. |

| Description | This vehicle has a safety issue when it comes to snow on the ground and driving on a hill/incline. I was driving my vehicle through snow in the ohio/wv region and when I tried to drive up a hill with snow on the ground the vehicle stopped. The vehicle would not accelerate and it seemed the engine just shut off. So I put the car in neutral and pushed the gas and I was correct the engine had no rpms. This caused a huge safety issue to myself and the people driving near me. As I had zero control over the vehicle on an incline. The cars coming toward me and the ones behind me had zero issues with their vehicles going up this hillside. I tried three times to shut car off and back on so it would give me a few seconds of acceleration, allowing me to get up the hill a few more feet before shutting off again and possibly causing an accident. When I took it to my honda dealer they stated computer showed no issues with the vehicle. And they have not heard of the engine shutting down or not having rpms with snow on the ground. They recommended that I have tracking control off next time allowing me full control vs. The computer of the car however, I did have it off. Once they heard that statement they informed me I have no other options. Honda did tell me when driving in snow other messages can go off and the car is still safe to drive. Which it needs to be as this area has tons of snow. However, that is not the case if the car just shuts off. Prior to the issue, the car kept beeping non stop with warning of break system & adaptive cruise control. My sensors were wiped off prior to the car shutting off. Yet again you can't keep a sensor spotless driving on a highway with snow. Two of the warning lights that showed on my dashboard were not listed in the manual. I am now afraid to drive my vehicle with any snow coming down. I have been a honda owner since the 90's and I no longer trust this brand. |

| Description | At approximately 16:08 est on jan 1, 2022 I was traveling westbound on I-76 at mile marker 146. 9 wb (40°02'03. 0"n 78°29'50. 0"w) in the center lane on a straight section of road at approximately 70mph. Car mileage was 21264 at the time of the crash. The weather at the time of the crash was light rain and with temperature approximately 50f. The car suddenly and for no apparent reason began skidding / fishtailing. I tried steering to regain control of the vehicle and applying the brakes to slow down, but the car continued fishtailing. I did not feel the anti lock brakes engage at any point during the skid. I went into the left lane, and struck the center concrete barrier, causing the airbags to deploy and the car to come to rest in the left lane. 3 symptoms appeared the day of the crash which had never happened before: 1) several hours before the crash, the vehicle began handling strangely. It felt like there was either steering or brake input from the land keeping assist / adaptive cruise control / traction control systems which was "fighting" me and causing the vehicle to swerve slightly. These handling anomalies occurred randomly about 10 times immediately before the crash. 2) about 2 hours before the crash, the check engine light began flashing and there was a loss of engine power. I pulled over and restarted the car, which seemed to resolve the check engine light / power loss. 3) at one point the adaptive cruise control turned itself off and gave a message about traction conditions. To my knowledge the problem has not been confirmed or reproduced, and the vehicle has not yet been inspected by honda, my insurer, or anyone else. As of jan 6, the vehicle is currently in a yard near altoona pa awaiting assessment, and is available for inspection upon request. I informed honda about the crash on jan 6, 2022. They gave me a case number and said to work through my insurer on next steps. Honda service bulletin 21-052 may be relevant to this incident. |

| Description | The car's steering wheel doesn't respond to driver's input correctly causing the car to constantly wander around within the lane. It is impossible for the driver to keep the car centered within a highway lane. In creates an increased chance of hitting nearby vehicles. Also, it requires the driver to focus mostly on centering the car inside the lane and less time on wider observation of the surroundings. During an emergency maneuver to avoid any object on the road, the car may not respond to the driver's input as intended. As shown in the attached video, as the driver tries to turn the steering wheel clockwise from the centered position, the steering wheel doesn't move a bit as if something is tightly holding it. When more turning force is applied by the driver, the steering wheel loosens up instantly which creates an over turning of the car. Although the degree of the movement appears small in the video, this is big enough to noticeably shift the car within a highway lane. I am very afraid that if the car will let driver turn the steering during an emergency situation. This problem happens with all the active safety system turned off including lane departure warning and lane keep assists. The problem is more reproduceable in certain condition. The temperature should be around 50 degrees or below. The car must be driven for 30min or longer on highway at around 70mph. The steering wheel must be turned from the centered position. The car is available for inspection upon request. Other honda accord and civic owners seem to experience the same problem as discussed in internet forums. I took the car to the dealer and they couldn't reproduce the problem or stated that it is within design specification. There haven't been other problem in the car to cause this behavior. I purchased this car new and the problem started after a year of ownership. |

| Description | I have a 2019 honda accord hybrid touring. I hear a very loud humming noise coming from the underside (both sides) of the car when I am driving between 50 and 55mph. It gets increasingly louder for a 5 - 10 second span, then goes away completely. It is more prevalent when there is a passenger in the front passenger seat and repeats when I am in that speed range, especially while going around a curve. It has not resulted in any handling issues yet, but I do not know what is being affected. |

| Description | On 6/25/21, while driving my 2019 honda accord hybrid ex-l, at a speed of 30-40 mph the car displayed various warnings. I was on a major road with no where to pull over. Within about a block the car unexpectedly braked hard and slowed down from about 40 to 15 mph. I attempted to press on the gas to avoid causing an accident but, the car continued at the slower speed and did not react to my gas press. This issue then cleared and I was able to accelerate. This was very scary but to make it worse about a 1/2 block later my car veered to the left and out of my lane, again at this point I was on high alert and the veer was not correct. I was able to gain control and get the vehicle back in the correct lane. I then pulled into a parking lot(~1 block later). I tried to document all of the warnings at this time. I called randy kuehl honda and decided to drive back roads to the dealership(~4 miles). Prior to arriving(~3. 8 miles into drive), additional warnings were displayed. I arrived at the dealership and they said that the issue was because there was a crack in my brake light and water had gotten in. But I am having a hard time accepting that because of a busted taillight it is normal/acceptable/safe for the car to brake and swerve and lose all of the indicated systems. Seems like a pretty big safety concern. I can quickly find other instances similar to mine on the internet. Below is a list of all the warnings I was able to remember. I also noticed while I was parked that the red "brake" was displayed but I did not have the parking brake on. ---initial warnings electric parking brake system problem(sp), parking brake not available brake sp brake performance may be reduced brake hold sp. Apply brake when stopped adaptive cruise control sp collision mitigation braking sp road departure mitigation sp ---later electric power steering sp vehicle stability assist sp lane keeping assist sp anti-lock brake system (abs) sp |

| Description | My 2019 accord was due for a fuel pump recall (nhtsa campaign number: 21v215000), so I took it in to first texas honda and they completed a “remedy†by replacing it. 2 weeks later, I drove my car for the first slightly longer trip of 100 miles at night, and the car lost its power on the highway. Pretty much all the malfunction indicator lights were on, the dashboard lcd displayed failure of all major systems, and the car would not start again. I had it towed to allen honda, another honda dealership, who told me that the new fuel pump first texas honda installed for the recall was probably not done properly and that some o-ring had worn out. They had to replace the fuel pump again. It appears that first texas honda made an awful mistake on the recall that could have resulted in an accident. |

| Description | I filed a complaint about this vehicle in october of 2020 when it was 5 months old at that time because it would slam on breaks and jerk the steering wheel for no known reason and with no one around. It has continued to do this intermittently as well as other erratic driving that cant be accounted for including at times getting confused when passing exit ramps where the car will slam on breaks and jerk to try to exit. I was driving this afternoon at highway speeds and the steering wheel began to shimmy (vibrating back and forth). It felt like there was a potnetial tire blow out but my tpms did not indicate any loss of pressure. I assumed the car was having another one of its unexplained steering behaviors. I know from previous experience that turning the blinker on will stop the shimmying if it thinks you are trying to switch lanes so I turned my blinker on and I moved over one lane hoping it would stop. The shimmying (vibrating of steering wheel) continued and shortly there after it pulled hard left on me driving me directly into a cement barricade that was located a few feet off of the side of the road. I hit the barricade at highway speed and bounced off of it spun around and re-hit the barricade with the rear of the car which is what sustained the majority of the damage when it hit. Though I hit the barricade with significant force the airbags did not deploy. My daughter has been in the car with me on a previous occasion when the car has done this and I have complained about it numerous times to numerous people. I do not feel safe in this car... It only does this at highway speeds and on the highway... It will kill me or someone else if something is not done. I have contacted honda cooperate and also filed a report with them as well. |

Dealer removed intake manifold, throttle body, remove fuel rail and #3 injector. Repair connector wiring harness to #3 injector. Replace engine wiring harness. After the harness is replaced. There are still warning lights that will not clear. Pull engine cover and lower bumper cover at front/note that there is rodent damage on two other wiring harnesses removed and replaced front bumper wiring harness and engine to body wiring harness. Went into system and cleared all codes. Rechecked and steering needed to be initialized through the vsa system. Drove the vehicles for a few days and all the problems re-occurred again. Honda has a rodent repellent tape part # 4019-2317. However, service advisor did not have any knowledge that the service department sold this tape. This proves honda is aware of the rodent issue of eating wiring harness. |

| Description | Not only does the infotainment screen sometimes black out when I am navigating, but the emergency braking sometimes kicks in on the interstate highway when there is no car in front of me or none on either side. I also get occasional coffee cup icons with a driver alert signal even when I am driving in a straight line, yet conscious of the need to steer a bit to tell the system I am alert. The alerts happen at highway speeds. This has happened quite a few times. The dealer's only response was that honda is aware and blames the problem on using the cord that must be used to activate carplay and the navigation system! |

Luckily, the driver behind me was not following close and was able to avoid a collision by switching lanes. I have taken my vehicle to the dealer twice, but no one can find or duplicate the problem. Moreover, a couple of weeks ago, when I was switching lanes, toward the right, the left warning light and beeping noise came on. So far, I have recorded nine incidents when the vehicle slowed down on its own, and four of those were on the freeway. I was forced to deactivated all "safety" sensors while I am driving to avoid anymore incidents or accidents. |

During inspection on vehicle by technician, was found that front brakes were at 7 mms and rear brakes were at 0 mms. Rear brake pads were completely worn down and rotors were rusted and beyond any repair. Technician and service manager said this was "normal." honda corporation would not do anything about it. In talking to several outside mechanics and my knowledge of brake repair, all agree that rear brakes should not completely wear out before front brakes at 25,000 miles. The honda mechanic stated that doing the recall of reprogramming the bcm would correct problem with acc - adaptive cruise control. This re-programming did not correct the acc problem and actually made it inoperable. We have follow-up appointment to look at acc problem. Dealer said if it happens again, they will have honda corp. Inspect vehicle. We have on file all routine maintenance inspections recorded in "maintenance & service handbook" and honda multi point vehicle inspection checklists. Incurred 5 expenditure to replace rear brakes and rotors which should be covered by honda along with resolution of issue. |

| Description | The noise issue has these features: 1. It is intermittent. It comes out randomly on highway, and may continue for a few random seconds, then goes away. 2. It is low-frequency and doesn't change. As a comparison, it is lower than 2500rpm engine sound. 3. It is loudness-varying. Each time it comes out with little loudness, but then increases for the next few seconds to an uncomfortable level. It may stay quiet, or increase to any loudness level before it goes away. 4. It is mostly described as humming noise. However, in my opinion not quite the same as engine sound I have had this noise for the past 8 months. This noise tends to come on at around 52-54 mph, it increases in loudness and then promptly goes away. It is not always reproduceable and even though I have taken my car to the dealership they say they don't know what it is. They notate it and send me on my way saying they can't reproduce the sound. I have recorded the sound and they told me they can't help me unless they can reproduce it. I am worried that this may be something serious? |

| Description | Shortly after starting the car, car shudders when accellerating over 40 mph. Do not matter which mode it is in. All lead to engine shuddering and the flashing check engine light. When not engaged in eco mode, I received a notice say canceling econ mode when the mode was not egaged, the typical process is start car and within a few minutes, accelerate above 40 mph and within seconds get a blinking check engine light, a shuddering engine that is slowing down below 60 mpg and getting more violent, this began after picking up the car from having routine maintenance performed. I know there is out for the general 2019 accord model, just not my model, but the fuel pump issue sounds very similar to what I am experiencing with my honda accord. The "solution" so far is pull over and turn the vehicle over and restart it and hope for the before, but it only gives a temporary fix. |

On 01/12/2020 it happened again on I 81 interstate and again it shut off or lost all power for about a minute then it recovered itself. This was a very bad situation as I was in 3 lanes of traffic with tractor trailers all around going 70 mph. I have reported this to miller honda, three times. They took it in and tried to see if it would shut off on them. It did not at that time. Service manager could find nothing at that time.

| Description | On three separate occasions, I have been driving and my car has applied emergency brakes for no reason. No vehicles in my immediate area, including in front of me. On the first and main occasion, I was in the left lane traveling at about 75mph. My car flashed the emergency "brake" notification on the driver information side of the dashboard, and automatically applied brakes bringing me down to about 50-55 mph before the warning went away, brakes were released and everything proceeded as normal. Cruise control was not on and there were no cars directly in front of me nor next to me. The sun was not rising nor setting, so I don't believe there to have been any sun glare affecting the radar. I had this issue again driving at night on back roads. I was driving about 35 miles an hour when the "brake" notification appeared and the car automatically applied brakes, despite nothing being in my line of travel. After this, I figured out how to disable the automatic braking and change it to just a warning. The third time this happened was again driving on the highway. I don't recall my speed, but no one was in front of me. My car flashed "brake" for no reason before disappearing. I do normally get the "brake" notification when I am approaching a slowed vehicle, but I don't get automatic braking with those as I am already applying brakes. In all three of these circumstances there has not been anyone in front of me to trigger the brake warning. |

Had to leave the car and went to get a engine control/fuel pump relay the next day and the car turned on once I put that in. With this happening I know something is going on with the fuel pump and I've put premium gas in the car since I bought it brand new . I went online to read up on it and found out there was a recall for 2018-2019 model accords , so I went to the dealer thinking yes they can fix it but when they searched my vin the only thing that came up was the bcm update. But knowing there is a recall for the exact problem I'm having and I can't get it fixed until I save up a little bit . Is there a way this recall can be done to my vehicle.

| Description | On december 26, 2020, I was leaving work, after a 12 hour shift at the hospital. While backing into an alleyway my car struck a large roll-off dumpster (which was caddy cornered in the alley) of the back, driver quarter panel and back driver door. The rearview camera, blind spot warning, parking collision warning, the rear cross traffic warning, nor the automatic emergency braking kicked in. I was going at a very low speed at the time of the incident (~1-2 mph). My car had been warmed up prior to getting in it. I did not spend over 40k on a vehicle for the the safety features to not work when you need them to. I have noticed that I have also had issues with my lane departure warning and the forward collision warning has been not working 100% of the time recently, but that never bothered me before. What is upsetting is that I have already had to have honda replace the front sensor due to my car throwing codes (lkas, adaptive cruise control & front collision warning) not functioning, as well as my back driver door lock (already gone bad). Now this. My car isn't even 2 years old. I took my car by my local dealership (priority honda of roanoke) on 12/30/20 where I was told to contact american honda because of the recall on the bcm on my car and was told that this most likely contributed to the accident. After contacting american honda I was basically told that it is not a safety recall but a "non-compliance" recall and that the safety features they boast about are not actual safety features of the car and should not be relied upon in any case. So, they do not stand behind their vehicles. This incident could have been so much worse and I am thankful that it wasn't, but I am still sickened over this! I purchased a brand new car for its safety features that don't work, to be told by the manufacturer that they are not liable for their product not working correctly. |

I took the car to vann york honda, was told it was a recall for a bcm module (obviously untrue, that is for wipers, rear defogger, etc), but I did get the issue documented on paper. This was if something happens to me, I or my family have documentation that the car does have an issue with braking at high rate of speed for no reason. At times the brake light comes on, the last two times lane departure light has come on and I have been centered up in my lane, no one in front of me or as I stated beside me. The car is a danger to the driver, any potential passengers and the vehicle following. Honda seems not to be concerned as I have read online in many places that this began with 2018 models and affects not just the accord, but the civic as well. My 75 year old mother has a 2019 civic that is doing the same thing. I suppose if someone gets hurt and families start to sue, honda may do something. Now that I have documentation, if I get hurt, that is my plan! |

| Description | Usually when the weather is colder say below 50 degrees fahrenheit, a loud hum emits from the speaker system with or without music on if I am going less than 40 mph. If I crack a window or the sunroof/moonroof or a window, the sound goes away too. I also don't notice the noise in the summer/warmer months here in the northeast nor do I notice the hum when I am traveling faster than about 40 mph, such as doing 50/55 on a highway. Some folks believe it might be part of active noise cancelation to drown out the sound of the engine in the cabin. It seems I may not be alone: https://www. Cargurus.

| Description | I was at a red stop light on a local street. It was a clear, sunny day. The light turned green and I started to proceed. I was in the left hand traffic lane (there are two lanes for a left hand turn at this spot). As I proceeded to make the turn, the brake mitigation system activated the brake. There was nothing in front of me. There was a car behind me and to my right. I drive a manual transmission so this action caused my car to stall. Luckily the car behind me did not hit me. I tried to restart my car quickly. I had a hard time restarting the car as the parking brake must be on to start the car as well as the clutch depressed and foot brake pressed. As this all happened so quickly and I did not expect the car to stall for no apparent reason. I do not like the mitigation system as you have to turn it off each time you start your car. For a conscientious driver you do not need this system. It is only a burden and a hazard. I called a local dealer to ask about shutting this system off permanently and the advisor told me she had a honda that does the same thing at a certain road she drives where there is a dip in the road. Please check to see if honda is having a problem with the mitigation system. |

This has happened at least 3 times including while driving and when idling. If this happens at 60mph you will slow down to a stop without brake lights lit, possibly in the middle of a highway, may result in rear end accident. I was lucky to have noticed and was able to shift back to drive without accident occurring. I am emailing service department at burns honda regarding this problem today, as they are currently closed for thanksgiving. |

| Description | The positioning of the windshield mounted censors box and the rearward view mirror create a forward to the right blind spot that obstructs views of oncoming pedestrians in the walkway coming towards you as you are negotiating the very beginning of a right hand turn, leading to potential pedestrian accident and very angry pedestrians who do not realize they have a responsibility not to walk right through your direction of travel. In one incident, the pedestrian, who did not collide with me, then assaulted my car in uncontrolled anger six times with flat hands to the right side of my car trying to cause damage. It is not advisable to try and report same to police since the police might accuse you of striking the pedestrian who screamed out of control and assaulted your vehicle. The rear view mirror needs to be elevated, or all accords equipped with full time selectable rearward camera, not just the top end models as this is a serious vehicle design flaw, the censor box should be moved to front of the hood mount, it is obscuring a lot of vision for anyone 5"10" or over. I am 6'2":. This is the first of about 12 accords/odds/pilots I've owned or leased with this huge a vision obstruction right in my right central frame of vision. I would not have approved the lease had I kn own about this or the extreme right hand biased placement of the gas/brake pedals with respect to the transmission housing and my knees, creating a pressure obstruction that slows down hitting of the brakes. This is not the first time. This guy went haywire and did not realize he was obstructed behind the censor box and rear view mirror, so he assaulted my vehicle six or more times with open hands trying to dent the vehicle. He should have been arrested but no accounting for people's blood pressure and today's assault first, consider your situation approach. |

This crack happened while the vehicle was stationary and inside a private, enclosed garage. There are no chip or scratches on the windshield other than this crack. So far, I have waited 14 days for american honda to decide if this is a manufacturing/vehicle defect or an accident. Neither the dealership nor I are able to get a decision from american honda. |

Just yesterday the car hit the break on it's own when the car on the other side was clearly on the other lane the car made a horrible sudden stop that caused bruising to my neck and also my passenger got hurt with everything that flung from the backseat he said the tug was too much . We thought someone had hit me . This isn't the first time the car has done this I feel I get constant tire pops because of this car veers me off into a lane that isn't even there. I have witnesses that say I have a lemon car I always say no but this last incident was too much for me . Also the charger port not usb has not worked since day one another thing they said was working again nothing . I went back and they said I had no warranties . I have called honda trying to get to the bottom of this and going to the dealer they said u signed so take care of it . At this point I am in the process of purchasing a new vehicle cash and I am not even 1% intersd in keeping this car . If I have to return voluntarily I will have to . I have been patient but it's absolutely ridiculous that I was put into this vehicle being a supposedly upgrade ? From my 2017 honda coupe v6 . This car needs a recall on lane departure , sensors , electrical it is not a car I feel safe in . I do not trust to let it drive on it's own and for good reason . What am I paying for then ? I would have crashed into a car by now if I trusted it . I have proof of the three tires I have had to get in the past theee months and I don't drive much at all 9k miles in a whole year . Pics on bottom show how the damage comes from the sides due to the car going straight then making sudden turns that hit curbs . The sensors seem to be getting worse instead of better . |

| Description | When removing the electronic parking brake, to begin driving, one or more brake pads get stuck to the rotor then is violently returned to the open position. This happens in weather below 40 degrees fahrenheit, after driving, then parking for mere minutes, even when the car is still running. Many sources this is due to the master cylinder not having enough pressure to relax the caliper. This is very hazardous under low speed and I have experienced extremely weak braking when in a parking lot. |

| Description | 07/06/20 was involved in an accident due to the plastic gas pedal snapping off and becoming lodged behind the brake pedal preventing adequate stopping that resulted in me rear ending another vehicle. Max speed reached on the freeway before collision was 65 mph. Trying to brake was not smooth and I had to press down extremely hard in order for the braking system to respond and still ended up colliding with the other vehicle at a higher rate of speed than there should have been when paying attention to surrounding traffic, even with a car length distance infront of me at the start of breaking. It is typical of the braking system to engage when "detecting" close proximity to another object or vehicle but, on many occasions there was no one there; however, in the case of todays accident collision mitigation was not responsive. Tire rotation performed at honda on 6/29/20 with reports that brake lines, fluids, and pads were up to par however this is most certainly not the case. There is currently a recall that has not made its way to consumers for the fuel pump in this car that took me so digging to find. Initiated 5,28,2020 but, will not go in effect until 7,22,2020. I could have lost my life today! Such a scary situation to be in. |

I called my insurance company and they agreed to look at the car and the body shop I took it to said they would not touch it, because honda needs to do something about it, insurance now will not cover it at all. I am lost for words because not only is this a new car it should not be doing this. I can see 10 yrs and neglect but this is not so. I just want my car fix. It should be offered to any customer starting from 2018 to present they need to research it to see how many cars are defected, and they need to be held responsible for it.

I immediately had 3 detailers look at the spots and they said it has something to do with the paint job. I called honda and started a claim, they told me to take the car to the dealership I purchased it from and have them to review it, they were rude and stated that it was my fault and that I had to put something acidic on it or it was acidic rain, or sap. I have not been under a tree nor put anything on my car to damage it, why would I want to do this to my own car, I brought up issues with the stereo system and the screen freezing and going black. They told me they would take my stereo out my car and put a refurbished system in my car that will have the upgrade already on the system and take mines and put it in someone else's car. Why is this happening and the car is only 1 year old. I found out the car was made the end of the year on a friday,I had videos and that still was not good enough. Now I'm looking at getting a paint job on a one year old car. I'm so disappointed I really like my car and for all this to happen in a year I really hate I bought this car. |

As the tachometer in this vehicle is digital, the driver is unable to determine the rpm of the engine when stationary or in motion. When this problem surfaces, not even restarting the vehicle fixes the digital display. I have had 3 dealer appointments to fix this issue now. They have swapped out the gauge cluster and the problem persists. Additionally, I have identified other users via internet forums who have exchanged photos and videos with me of their vehicles exhibiting the same symptoms. Because the problem was not fixed with new hardware, and many other users experience it, I suspect it may be a software issue. |

| Description | When the car is in drive and your foot is on the breaks,so you are standing still, you can feel the break peddle loose pressure and the break peddle goes further down. Also, when breaking at slow slow speeds, it feels like it stops grabbing the rotors and you need to push further down on the breaks. |

| Description | We leased a honda accord in july, 2019. We are a honda family. Before the accident on january 10 of this year, we noticed several unusual happenings. The trunk lid would open while driving after being securely latched. It also would begin braking unnecessarily. The unfortunate incident occurred when the driver drove into a parking space in front of a local retail store traveling slowly when the honda inexplicably accelerated forward very quickly. It jumped the curb, went over wide sidewalk, traveled through a brick wall anchoring a huge store window, and then went crashed through the huge window. The honda finally stopped after it had completely entered the store. Fortunately, nobody was injured. We are very grateful for this. It seems that something is seriously wrong with the speed control system of the honda. We felt that it was our responsibility to notify honda in hope of preventing a future tragedy. We felt compelled to share this information on the nhsta website where 54 complaints were listed for the 2019 honda accord. *ln *dl |

| Description | Driving in inclement weather snow/freezing rain. The honda sense radar will become covered in snow and or ice causing it to light up the dashboard with warning lights. None of the honda safety features work (adaptive cruise, lane assist, automatic braking) even if you are not using them at the time they all shut down. The worst being the automatic braking could cause wrecks if it hasn't already. When the dash lights up it starts beeping constantly and you have to close out 3-4 notifications before it will stop blinking. Has happened on highway as well as just normal driving state roads. Has happened to me 3 different times. Car has 12000 miles |

| Description | My vehicle is 3 months old. I noticed about a month ago one crease above the driver side passenger door, in the frame piece that is between the door and door. Typically this is where it creases in accidents for safety. A week or so later another one showed up and how there are 3 and I see a 4th starting. There are no marks just the crease. They seem to be in a line all along the driver side piece above the doors. It is as if the frame of vehicle's body is folding in. Again, as if it was creasing for the safety in an accident. I am not sure what to do and how long I wait for this. I am nervous the vehicle could start to become unsafe. I have slowly been noticing more and more appearing along that same line. Help please. |

| Description | 2nd occurence-while driving up a hill at approximately 30 mph the warnings for brake system failure, acc, lane departure mitigationand collision detection came on. The first time it happened I was told that the sensor had been dislodged. This time they are saying that there is a crack in the tail light assembly which set off the warning system. The braking system and a new brake assembly is needed. The brake lights work fine. Even if they were both controlled by the same computer, the brake lights are on an output from the computer or pedal switch. The warning seems to indicate there might be problem with the sensor which would be an input system. Control, sensors, and indication systems have separate electrical paths even if managed by the same computer. So their "diagnosis" seems highly unlikely. |

| Description | This is an accord hybrid problem! In cold weather the vehicle roars so loudly you can't hold a conversation or drive safely - it sounds like a diesel truck is trying to pass you. Then it suddenly stops! A few minutes later it will do it again. This happens at speeds between 25 and 55 - surface make no difference, but much greater when temperature is below 40 degrees. I put 2500 miles on my first accord (2018) before replacing it, now the new one (2019) is doing the same thing! I am not alone, the accord groups are full of people complaining of this and nothing being done for two years+. Dealer has told me for the past years+ that honda is "investigating". Mileage also seems to drop in 1/2 when this condition exists. Letting off the gas stops the sound immediately, but then it will start up again when under load. Only occurs in cold weather at speed, never when idling in cold weather. I have tried many times to record sound but nothing works. Btw: it is almost impossible to get the mileage claimed on this vehicle. I had a hybrid lincoln and always got better than advertised mileage. |

| Description | On april 13, 2019, my brand new, 2019 honda accord sport 2. 0t on the highway going 55 mph, with mere/mild rain brought an alert of collision mitigation warning onto the dash. The car has since alerted me of the same problem about 5 times, in both wet and dry highway conditions. When taken to the dealer, they said the car had no records of the alert. Not knowing if the honda sensing system will work is very alarming and I have become scared to drive the vehicle as I can not trust that the vehicle will perform as advertised. I am paying for a service that is not safe to use or not safe for other motorists as many other accord and honda owners have reported the same on their cars. |

While driving on vacation in september 2019 on interstate going around 75 mph reached over to put cup in holder and lightly bumped gear shift. This moved gear shift back from drive to neutral. Did not touch button on front of stick to change gears! Pushed back on stick to put back into drive and it moved back into drive without braking or using button on stick to change from neutral to drive. This happened again later in september on interstate while going 60 mph by hitting gear stick with my knee while repositioning legs in seat driving. Also once again in december on interstate while driving around 60 mph also bumping back of gear stick. I have had no repairs. Did ask service department at patty peck honda why this was occuring and they denied that it was even possible. |

| Description | On 11/22, when my car was in accessory mode, the stereo system was flickering and the warning sign saying that there is a problem with my brake system appeared on the dash board. I also noticed my break pedal was pulsating. I took it to honda and they changed the battery of my car on 11/30. I called honda customer service and they told me this is a known issue but they do not have a fix for it. Two days after I got my battery changers, the touch screen went out while I was driving and caused the stereo system to reboot. Today, I was at the stop light waiting for the light to turn green. There was not a car infront of me and when the light turned green I took my foot off the pedal and the car started to move. About two seconds of moving the car, the car breaked by itself and the hazards lights came on- this happened on 12/14. A car behind me had to swerve to avoid hitting me. |

| Description | High pitched noise present so long as any power is drawn anywhere in the vehicle. The noise is a constant 15khz noise with sporadic noises occupying the 15-20khz range. Noticed in the days after buying the brand new car. Taken in to the dealership 4 times, honda flown out engineers to inspect the vehicle. They said it's an issue but it is present in all model year hybrids, so they do not intend to fix. Most people lose the ability to hear sound in this range by age 40. Unfortunately of you can hear this noise it is very loud and so high pitched that I now require hearing protection in my left ear to drive the vehicle. Honda claims it is not an issue because most people can not hear it. I have read studies out of am australian university noting that even sounds outside our range of hearing can cause significant health issues (migraines, hearing loss, nausea etc.) they are refusing to respond to me in any capacity. I now have to set upon the task of trading in my car with less than 1000 miles on it just so I can drive with my ears unplugged. I am told to expect a loss of at least ,000 on my trade. I have attached two photos of a sound analyser app I used to categorize the noise. First picture shows a constant bold line at 15khz right as I turned my car on. The second shows some ~20khz "chirps" I noticed while driving. Please look into this issue. I fear not only for myself and the massive financial hit I will no doubt suffer at the end of this, but for the health and safety of those driving these cars.

| Description | Honda 6 speed manual transmission reverse gear lock out safety mechanism failed to work until now. The problem is still existed on my vehicle. After my car was serviced at honda dealer for engine block replacement (failed at 3400 miles), reverse gear lock out do not work. Having the reverse gear gate located at far right, there must be electronic lock out mechanism not allowing the shift selector pass the 5th and 6th gear column when car is moving forward at certain speed. Since such function has failed on my car, I can easily move the shifter to the column where reverse gear is at any speed. Problem is if I shift from 5th to 6th, shifter slide into reverse gear gate and grinds at high speed. It caused another shifting problem and it maybe potentially safety issue at highway speed. When I shift from 4th to 5th, again shifter slides pass the 5th gear gate, and ends up miss shift since there is no forward gear on top of reverse gear selecting column. I fear the grinds shifting to 6th. I have been driving without overdrive for more than 1 month.. It could cause potentially dangerous situation accelerating at ramp to motorway. There are significant time delay accelerating with higher gears on freeway. Have been to honda dealers 3 times. Unfortunately all of service advisors and techs were aware of the gear shifting safety feature which is clearly published in owners manual page 490. |

| Description | Car has gone into limp mode twice. First time was when I had it for 2 weeks. I was driving 65mph and the car just stopped in the highway. I had to get the car off the road to keep from getting hit and caused some undercarriage damage. The car was towed. Honda "fixed" the limp mode issue but refused to accept responsibility for any other damage caused by the car going into limp mode. Last month I was coming home from work at 2:30 am and the car went into limp mode again. The car was towed for a second time to a different honda dealership where they stated there was no way the first dealership fixed the car. There were metal shavings noted throughout the system, the fuel injector and all of the cylinders had to be replaced. I am concerned about the metal shaving noted in my oil and throughout the system causing further engine damage as time goes on. Honda has also refused to pay for my rental car during this process even though it was a manufacturing issue. Honda customer service on 6/7/19 also stated that if the car goes into limp mode again and I get hit, all additional damage caused from the accident will be my responsibility. |

Vehicle was backed up into the parking spot and stopped the vehicle showed yellow "brake system" dash light and 2 warning messages one was generic brake system problem. Second was elaborating that brake fluid may be low and instructing to check if brakes operate normally. I checked the brake pedal and it had noticeable less resistance. After a minute the condition cleaned itself, the error messages disappeared, the brake pedal feel returned to normal. I did not have enough time to document the problem. I checked the brake fluid level and it was normal, then immediately brought vehicle to the dealer. Technician found no stored error codes, performed. System reset. Honda recommendation was to keep driving the vehicle. Incident #2: 07/17/2019, 3268 miles on odometer. After a commute parking car, the vehicle showed yellow "brake system" dash light and 2 warnings.

I brought the vehicle to the dealer, shared photos. They found nothing and raised it to honda corporate, who had no solution either. Honda recommended driving the vehicle until new incident occurs at this point, I asked for vehicle to be replaced under virginia lemon law, which qualifies serious safety defect after the first occurrence, but was denied by honda. Ncds arbiter sided with honda. Since honda introduce no repairs, the problem is still hidden in the car, it is a ticking bomb. *js |

We struck a 2001 f250 at 45 mph in the side after the individual failed to yield and stopped sideways directly in our lane of traffic. My honda received serious front end damage and the engine compartment was smoking, but not a single air bag deployed during this accident. There were three (3) adults and one (1) child in the honda, the child and two (2) adults were sent to the emergency room via ambulance. There were no major injuries other than severe bruising and some pulled muscles which were caused by the seat belts. The failure of the air bag deployment during a head on collision of this proportion is very disturbing and as a result we have lost complete faith and confidence in honda's safety features. We are very thankful that the seat belts prevented us from slamming our heads into the dash and windshield, especially since our air bags failed us. |

I took it to the dealer the first time and restarted the car in the bay. The error light went away and they told me to come back if it happened again. The error message came back several more times over the next several weeks. I scheduled an appointment. I suggested faulty brake switch be looked at but was told the car just needed a "reboot" and to call if I had any further issues. The issue returned several days later. I believe in each case the adaptive cruise control was on and speeds were under 30. I believe the system was applying the brakes as we approached the car ahead in slow moving stop and go traffic. Only on one occasion was there rain or wet roadways. In all other instances the road and skies were clear each time on relatively straight road. |

| Description | My 2019 honda accord, purchased new july 25, has 2365 miles on it. Twice very early in my ownership of the car the collision mitigation braking system (cmbs) activated with no cars in front of me. I forgot about the problem as it did not repeat itself until three incidents 9/11 and 9/12 2019. Cmbs activated yesterday evening (9/11/19). It happened again 9/12 my drive to chicago on I-294. I called honda of racine right after that happened and was told to bring the car in for service. He told me to turn the system off. It happened again on my drive home from chicago. I searched the problem on-line and found numerous similar complaints on: https://www. Carcomplaints. Com/honda/accord/2018/brakes/service_brakes. Shtml many of the complainants who have brought their car into honda dealers for service report having no satisfaction. What is also troubling is that the system did not work today when there was need for an emergency stop when the car in front of me braked and swerved left (in a narrow construction zone) to avoid hitting the car that had to stop suddenly in front of him when a tow truck started backing up on the road to service a car on the side of the road. I braked quickly and the car behind me swerved to avoid hitting me. The cmbs did not activate in this situation. 9/13: waiting at honda for diagnostics. I have been shown a may 2019 honda service bulletin which acknowledges this issue. I see numerous nhtsa owner reports of identical problems. |

| Description | When I brake from a speed of 30-40 mph, the pedal feel is not smooth throughout the braking motion. First, I start to brake but I do not slow down, only when I press even harder does the brake engage but at that point it is a heavy brake make the car lunge forward. Basically the brakes only engage when I press harder on the pedal but doing so makes the braking not smooth. This uncertainty when the brakes will engage makes for a dangerous situation when driving in stop and go traffic. I have to heavily concentrate on braking. My car is brand new with only 1450 miles on it. I took it to the dealer but they do not believe my story even when they test drive. |

| Description | I was driving on the highway in my new 2019 honda accord which is just at it's 3768 miles, and the adaptive cruise control system, collusion mitigation braking system and road departure system failed. It showed a message to take it to the dealer. Upon restarting the problem seems to be solved. I got the car couple of months ago, so I have their may 2019 software update which supposedly would fix this problem with 10th gen accords, but it didn't. The dealers and honda corporate keep responding that honda doesn't have a fix for this problem yet, which is going on for over a year now for many owners, which can easily be found by a google search. Please help us. |

| Description | I incorrectly described the safety problem with my honda accord in my complaint 11241841, so here's a correction. It is not the top of the calf muscle that is impeded, it is the knee which locks against the overly thick plastic (2"-3" high) surrounding the entire top of the center console, and so you must make multiple foot and leg stabbing movements in order to with difficulty actually engage the brake pedal to stop after being on the gas pedal. This would effect all males with height 5. 9" or over and some taller women. The problem is the knee locks tight against the center consoles plastic at the top of the console, and your foot becomes trapped against the gas pedal. The time differential to relocate your leg and foot to engage the brake is an additional half second or longer. You have to hav legs long enough to have your knee become adjacent to the 2-3" high thick plastic along the top edge of the center console which runs the entire sides of the center consol at its top. It is extremely cramping and disruptive to leg movement by pinning the right side of the knee joint. Honda must remove the area of that thick striip of horizontal (front to back) plastic where the knee engages it, to allow one to rotate one's foot easily between gas and brake. If they do not multiple fatalities may occur. |

| Description | On a total of 6 occasions during the first 4500 miles of using my new car, the brake alert sign activated without reason for provocation, I. E., no other cars nearby, nothing in roadway. Four occurred while doing 65 mph on interstate. The last 2 occasions were startling as the brakes were triggered, causing the car to fishtail and swerve left momentarily as if attempting to awaken a driver falling asleep. On those occasions I was doing about 50-55 mph on a highway with other cars on the road but not close enough to need to brake. One time I was taking an exit to get on another highway. The other time I was going through a construction zone but there were no circumstances that would have caused the need to brake. I took the car to the honda dealership immediately after second occurrence and left for 24+ hours. They acted as iff that couldn't have happened unless I were too close to something -- they'd never heard of the problem. They test drove for 13 miles, and the problem did not occur for them. Nothing problematic showed up on diagnostics. Nothing was done to correct the situation. I disabled the collision mitigation system after leaving the dealership. |

| Description | The accelerator pedal is too close to the center console and this results in an inability to rotate your foot easily and engage the brake, one instead must slide ones leg and foot clear of that bell housing rearwards, then push forward and enage the brake sloppily, it slows down braking by about a second which is dangerous, and there is a likelihood your shoe soul will catch the brake edge and prevent braking. Ones leg and foot feel trapped against the center console housing. I believe this design differs from 2016 and before accords, and is extremely dangerous. It slows your brake reflex down and requires multiple relocations of the heel which could block hitting the brake pedal and block any braking altogether and that could lead to multiple fatalities. At least for me, a 6' tall man in his 60s, the pedals are dangerous and placed wrong. It is a design defect. |

| Description | We bought a brand new honda accord 2019(lx) on june 29, 2019. Not even a month later I. E. On saturday, july 27, 2019 at 7:49 pm my honda accord stopped in the middle of the highway due to unknown reason. Behind us was a truck and we were at 70 mph highway, we were about to be hit either by the truck or by the car on the right lane. Thanks to the truck driver and the person driving that suv who stopped in time. We merely escaped death like situation. Post that I called honda road side assistance and they asked me to move to a safe location and call them again. I tried to drive the car again and drove couple of miles where my car finally stopped moving and smoke started coming from the exhaust. Scared we quickly evacuated the car and moved to a safe location at 8:23 pm. Post that cops came to ask why we stopped there, we explained them the situation. We were told to stop the engine and wait there till the towing car arrived. I had so much trust in honda and we are so traumatized with this situation and I still can't believe how this happened. This is a brand new car with total miles of 657 miles. I didn't expect this from a brand-new car. We were lucky enough to escape death on the highway. We were exhausted and terrified with this event. Yesterday honda service center company called and told that the the turbo charger failed internally, causing oil to go into the exhaust system. This caused contamination of the catalytic converter and damaged the oxygen sensors. I am not sure if I can or anyone can trust honda ever again. If something would have happened to me or my family will honda be responsible for this. Question is do you still trust honda ? |

| Description | A feature of the car is to scan road signs and display some on the dashboard, such as speed limit. I was driving on route 100 and the car displayed the speed limit as 100 mph. It did this twice, in approximately the same section of the highway, once northbound and once southbound. This occurred while I was in motion, but the display lingered long enough for me to snap a picture at a stop light. Note: the owner's manual admonishes drivers to keep the scanners clean. But I had just purchased the vehicle from a used car dealer on 7/23/19, and kept it in a garage overnight. It was pristine. |

| Description | Leased this car brand new 2 weeks ago. Tire pressure monitoring system light has already came on twice. Check air pressure, it was where it should've been. Light went away after I reset the system. Upon driving on the highway using adaptive cruise control and lane keep assist, the 'collision mitigation: braking system problem. See your dealer' message popped up. Honda sensing functions were all disabled as well as regular cruise control. This happened on a cloudy evening as the sun was setting. No rain or inclement weather. Message went away only after parking the car, turning it off and restarting it. Took the car to the dealership to have it inspected but the diagnostics test came back inconclusive as the computer was unable to detect any codes. Service guy said that it could've just been a plastic bag or flying object that hit the sensor of the car causing the message to pop up. |

| Description | Applying brakes gives a non-linear response that makes it difficult to brake smoothly and safely. Applying the brakes results in varying responses that appears not to brake and then suddenly grabs. I suspect that there is either air in the system or part failure of the brake booster or master cylinder. Dealer said that it is 'normal' brake response for this model of vehicle even though the salesman and service tech felt the problem upon driving. Also had collision brake mitigation problem light go off on my way home from dealer. |

| Description | I was driving and entering the freeway when my car made a loud exploding pop. There were no cars next to me as I was entering the on-ramp. There were no overhead bridges or trees. Nothing fell from the sky. I stopped the car and found the sunroof shattered with a large hole. There was no debris inside other than glass. I believe that there is a defect with the sunroof that caused it to shatter. It should not have shattered this much with just normal use. This occurred about 5 minutes after leaving my indoor garage so the car/sunroof was not overheated. If the inner cover was open at the time, the glass would have shattered into the car and caused a serious accident. I have seen multiple reports of this same thing happening and this needs to be addressed with the manufacturers before someone is hurt or killed. |

| Description | With only less than 800 miles on the car, my 2019 honda accord vsa modulator (which was diagnosed by the dealership) failed. I felt the car begin to bog on the highway right before we were on the exit. Then, the gas pedal stopped working properly and the car lost speed. I would press hard on the gas pedal and the car would take about 3 seconds before it started to move forward, jerking in the direction I intended it to go. After struggling a little while, I luckily pulled over and called a tow truck to send my car to the dealership. I felt that I was very lucky to be able to safely pull over. 1st, it happened during an early sunday morning with heavy rain, so there was not much traffic. 2nd, the event occurred right before we were going to exit the highway with only a few hundreds of feet to go. Also, it's in my hometown and I know the road very well. Otherwise, an uncontrollable car could cause very serious accident. If we were to crash, the event would likely be attributed to driver fault - since it is such a new car - rather than a crucial car part failing, which could cause death to many others who buy new honda accord 2019s. Therefore, I believe that this issue should not be taken lightly and should be further investigated. |

| Description | Within days of leasing the vehicle, we began experiencing issues with the trunk opening. The first time and a few subsequent times, we discovered the open trunk while driving as a result of a warning light and had to stop and/or pull over, exit the car, and close the trunk. Additional times, we discovered the trunk open while parked in our driveway (4/5 times), in front of a grocery (once), in front of a restaurant (once), and in front of a family member's home (once). On one occasion, the trunk was discovered open following a night of torrential rain. Fortunately, no rain entered the trunk. |

| Description | Have taken my brand new 2019 honda accord sport 1. 5 to two different dealerships due to my car not tracking straight. Each time a minor tweak was done to the alignment. After researching a bit more I found there is an issue with the gear box being faulty (53620-twa-a28) which causes the tracking to be off with and without lane keep assist engaged. I am trying to get this issue rectified and awaiting dealer feedback. I have contacted the dealer and made them aware of the issue. The 2018 and 2019 accords are very similar and the issue is present in 2018s and a few 2019s after reading accounts on 'accordxclub. Com'. My build month and year was november 2018. |

I purchased a 2019 Honda Accord Sport on 2-18-2022. Since I’ve had it the Supplemental Safety system goes off, replaced battery, and now My Adaptive Cruise Control Sensor goes off, My Electric Brake System goes off, My Road Departure Mitigation System sensor goes off, My Collision Mitigation system goes off and at times my car stalls while driving on roads and the freeway. To where I press gas and it dose not even go until a few seconds, I have not even had this car over an year at the moment.
Bought a 2019 Certified Honda Accord for $25,000. Within an hour of my purchase the vehicle started to act up, called my sells person about the issues. Told him that all the lights on the dashboard came on he told me to bring the vehicle back for dignostics. After an hour of the diagnostic the mechanic found a blown head gasket. It’s strange that they new so quickly that its a head gasket. To me it seems that this is a common issue and they not reporting this to the consumer. They just trying to steal money from hard working people.
My audio sound just disappeared some days back, I have ordered for amplifier but it still didn’t work. Can anyone help with a solution? I have tried all I could.
I bought a 2019 Honda Accord sport in July 2021. Nov. 4, 2021 the malfunction warnings for lane assistance, mitigation braking, high beams, steering and several other warnings came on when I started the car to go to work that morning. Also, my horn will not work when these warnings are activated. It is no longer covered by warranty and I absolutely love the car, but now I am worried about my safety. My car runs and drives fine so far. I cannot afford to take it to the dealer. I just want to know that I’m safe. I drive 60 miles round trip everyday for work on major hwy (I-10) in Texas. What can I do?
I purchased my Brand New 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring with 6 miles on it in April of 2019, has been a great driving vehicle with AMAZING gas mileage till Honda did a software upgrade to the BCM on my car in March of 2021. Since then my car still drives great, but my fuel economy has taken a dive into the dirt. Mine nor my wife’s driving habbits have changed and I have even opt’ed for Low Roll resistant UHP 65,000 mile tires since my originals had 42,000 plus in April of 2021. Now my wife is lucky if she can get 33 miles to the gallon down from 44, and I am now getting 38 down from 51. Dealer says that the BSM does not control fuel economy, but of course they are wrong. Validated with 2 mechanics from Honda, Google searches, ASC mechanics as well who say that the BCM does control fuel economy, that is how you can tell if one is bad, “POOR FUEL ECONOMY” is one of the first signs there is a problem with the BCM. Of course Honda is claiming the same thing as the dealership and they claim is there is nothing wrong with the car’s BCM. I purchased this car for the advertised fuel economy of 48/48 and now not able to get it even though I was getting it with our driving habits but we can’t now. Just would have never thought this from Honda
My 2019 Honda Accord has gone into limp mode 3 times in the past 2 years. The first time the car had less than 6,000 miles on it. Each time the car has been towed. They have replaced the cylinders and the fuel injector due to metal shavings in the oil. Now at 58,000 miles they are telling me it needs new fuel injectors AGAIN and that Honda will not cover the cost!
When driving on highway my 2019 Honda Accord will brake suddenly when driving at highway speeds when a semi is near it at a curve. The emergency braking system alert comes on the consul. It is a very scary situation.
Breaking system problem with my Honda Accord 2019 LX model what can I do
I just bought a 2018 Honda Accord. I have been literally driving 70 miles on the freeway and the brakes apply themselves with no warning even though there is no obstruction or vehicle ahead me. The last time this happened to me a car behind me almost hit me. The lane assist does not work properly always steering me away from the lane even though I am in the right lane.
