FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
My wife was driving 55 mph taking our kids to school when the check engine light on the car came on and a message appeared on the dash saying that there was a power emission problem and to see dealer and that power may be reduced. The vehicle had very poor acceleration and she was only able to drive 30-40 mph on a busy 55 mph roadway. The vehicle was taken to Zeigler Honda of Kalamazoo. A service technician looked at the car, and told her that they could not find anything wrong with it. The vehicle drove fine home with no problems. One week later while driving on I-94, my wife was driving between 70 and 75 mph when the check engine light came on again, along with the message that there was a power emission problem and to see dealer. The message also stated that the power of the vehicle may be reduced. The vehicle again, had very poor acceleration. She was only able to drive 15 to 20 mph. Fortunately, she was able to get off the highway quickly, and drive the vehicle home. The vehicle had very poor acceleration and it took approximately 1.5 miles to get up to 40 mph in the vehicle with the accelerator pushed all the way to the floor. The dealer was contacted, and they advised they looked at it last time, and there was nothing that they could do. They advised they will create a service appointment to document the problem. I am in the process of waiting for the service department to call me back. I plan on taking the vehicle back to the dealership to have it inspected again, and to have this incident documented. This is a Huge safety issue that needs to be addressed.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
At speed limit cruising down I66. I was all alone. No birds in area at all. Open road. I was in middle lanes. Car attempted to come to a complete stop by itself. “Phantom Braking”? All my friends with Honda’s and Acura’s mentioned similar issues. If anyone was behind me, I could have caused a pile up or even worse. It’s happened a few times. Took to Capitol Heights Honda and Landmark Honda. They ran diagnostics. Explained to me there were no error codes. I explained to them, if system has a fault, it thinks it’s operating properly. So, no errors would appear! I have experience and education in computer programming (College), mechanical and electronic (US Army) and over 30 electromechanical troubleshooting, repair and maintenance and other IT experience. SME After they haven’t been able to do anything about it, I turn off all safely systems. I drive a lot. So, I’m also a very good driver. Have almost 65k miles on my vehicle. Date of incident below was when I forgot to turn off sensor. But it happened a few times before and I brought to Honda after first two times. I even had to rent a car at my expense.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Several instances where my 2017 Honda accord loses power or performance. Two instances are (1) stopped at traffic light and when I hit the gas to pull off it moved but would not do anything after that. The engine was on but no power. Thankfully I was close to a parking lot. The car rolled into the parking lot and a few the cut off on me. The 2nd time I was driving down the road, felt a little jolt and once again the car loss performance and I had to guide it to the side of the road.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
We were notified by carfax a couple of weeks ago that my 2018 accord had a recall on the fuel pump. I called my Honda dealership and they told me there was no recall. Then yesterday the nhtsa and the manufacturer updated their sites to confirm there actually was a recall. I called Honda today and the rep told me that there is no remedy yet and the nhtsa website states there's an increased risk of crash and injury. What is the allotted time the manufacturer is given to remedy this problem? Because now I'm not going to drive my car because I don't wanna die and leave my wife and kids behind.

STEERING
The steering suddenly became hard to turn right on a freeway going at 60 miles per hour (and came to normal in about 10 seconds) and then in about 10 more minutes when I took a left turn exiting the freeway, the steering remained stuck going left and had to pull it back to center with some effort. Got it checked with a honda dealer and they say something is wrong with the EPS system, where some torque value at rest is incorrect. There is a 13 year extended warranty for EPS torque sensor but only if certain codes show up. Unfortunately those torque sensor DTC codes do not show up on my vehicle and they say it could be a shorted EPS motor and hence it's not being covered in warranty and the current recommendation is changing the entire steering rack and I'm asked to pay out of pocket. There are lot of EPS complaints for 2013 accord

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
The rearview camera while backing up in low light is terrible at best. It cannot safely be used to back up due to the "snowy" pixels, even the dealership agrees the quality is less than poor. No the camera on the back is not dirty at all. I have pictures available, but your form below does not allow me to attach them.

SEATS
There is a major design issue with the two front seats on this vehicle in that they are too low. I am five feet four inches tall and my wife is five feet two inches tall and I can barely see over the driver's side front windscreen having adjusted the seat to it's maximum height. The passenger seat has no adjustable lever as a result my wife can see anything outside in the front of the vehicle. This is a major design and safety issue and it has to be addressed by Honda. I've also been following the Honda Accord forums and many people have the same issue. because of this I'm already planning to sell the vehicle and buy something else instead. I've owned a Honda Accord previously and many other vehicles and this type of issue was never a problem. I've driven over seven hundred vehicles in the past twenty five years and this is the first car that I've encountered this type of issue, in fact the passenger seat is unusable because it's way too low. I'm currently looking at buying two after market seats or alternatively to replace the vehicle. In fact I just bought the vehicle as a Demo with just 5000 miles on it on 12/13/2023. Please help me resolve this matter.

AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS, SEATS
UNKNOWN - I have a 2004 Honda Accord which indicates an airbag issue. The seat belt buckles but the light stays on. Many 2004 Accords were in a recall over SRS but my VIN did not show as part of the recall. The dealer says the seat sensor is bad but they are not making the part any longer. What should I do. I guess the maker should replace with a new system.

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Today on 24 December 2024, I was driving my 3 month newly bought Honda ACCORD SPORT HYBRID vin [XXX] from Tulsa Oklahoma to Dallas Texas when the car broke down suddenly in the middle of highway. It reported sudden power train system and all advanced feature failures and asked me to halt immediately or safely and started reducing the speed in the middle of driving at 65 miles hour. I had to park urgently on shoulder on I 75 S and it was very risky considering high speed traffic flowing. I think it was a great safety risk INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
this vehicle upon heavy rain/downpours the vehicle foward collision sensors may activate and cause sudden dangrous and potentially life threatening braking. one day it was raining very bad i was alone on the road going about 45 mph. the storm caused a really bad downpours and the car suddenly braked hard with no reason whatsoever. it only happens when it rains severely. im not the only person who has experianced this. people on the facebook 2023 honda accord hybrid page has had the same issue. this system needs to be updated before it takes someones life. it is unsafe to drive this vehicle under heavy rains due to the automatic braking system kicking on due to being overwhelmed by heavy rains.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
On Tuesday evening, December 19, 2023, while driving at highway speeds, the following message appeared on my digital display: BRAKE SYSTEM Brake system problem. Brake performance may be reduced. See your dealer. Other system messages began to appear, including, I believe, concerning the steering. More important, the car immediately went into a “limp mode“ with the speed dropping to 20 miles an hour, and then further down to as slow as 2 mph. Fortunately, I was not far from an exit and at the exit I pulled off the exit ramp onto the grass. I then shut the engine off and restarted it immediately. I was able to get back onto the exit ramp, but the initial message quickly reappeared and I was able to make it home driving between 10 and 15 mph. The next day the car was towed to the dealer who advised me that the issue was resolved by updating the software. At no point, did I ever receive a message or other indication that a software update was needed. The car has fewer than 5000 miles on it. The safety issue results from my being forced to drive at a very low speed while still on the highway. I independently did some online research and discovered that this type of issue has happened before with both this model and other Honda hybrids.
