STRUCTURE:BODY
While driving this Honda accord the sunroof suddenly exploded into thousands of little pieces.It rained down pieces of glass all over me and the interior of the car. Nothing hit the glass and I had never heard of this occurring until I began researching to see if it had happened to others. There are many instances where people have talked of this happening to them on the Honda forum and other places online. This is definitely a safety concern. Glass shattering and pouring down on people while they are driving is potentially a fatal flaw. Cars with sunroofs should be required to use laminated glass like for windshields,

ENGINE
This has occurred on two separate dates. While using ECON mode and driving on the highway I went to accelerate to pass another vehicle and the car started shaking and the check engine light started flashing. I could no longer accelerate with traffic traveling at speeds of 70 behind me. I was able to safely maneuver my car to the should of the highway. I turned it off for a few minutes and turned it back on and it operated perfectly fine with no engine light on anymore. The second time it happened the car forced the ECON mode off while flashing the check engine light, but kept shaking until I pulled over and turned off the car for a few minutes. I will be taking it to the dealer. Had there not been a highway shoulder I would’ve had to force my way across 4 lanes on a 70mph highway while being unable to accelerate or come to a complete stop in the fast lane which is a major safety issue.

STEERING
Electric power steering light came on just after vehicle startup. Steering was very difficult. When I attempted to turn the wheel, it shook and vibrated regardless of whether I was stopped or moving. Felt dangerous to drive because of the lack of control. In an attempt to resolve the issue, I stopped and started the vehicle several times, and the problem seemed to resolve after the 4 6th or 7th restart. I was then able to drive with no further incidents over a 25 miles drive with many turns. Now the next morning the warning light is back on, and the steering is once again very difficult and shaky. I've attempted dozens of stops and restarts, with rest periods between, but no luck in getting the power steering to work again.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, POWER TRAIN, STEERING
VSA, brake, ABS, EPS, tire pressure light always on and won’t go away! I thought there would be enough information about this in the web. There is but, not actual solution. You would have to change out so much and still the lights would come back. Recently, my VSA light coming on and off have made my brakes and something else grind whenever i press on the brakes. To a point where I would need to pull over and hold vSA off button to not have brake grind when pressing on them. There should be enough content to be able to realized that this is a cause and concern for Honda vehicles.

Despite another battery replacement, the failure occurred again five months later. The contact sent an email to the manufacturer and received a case number. The vehicle had yet to be repaired and remained in the possession of the dealer. The failure mileage was unknown.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
So far I've had to replace 2 door lock actuators on my car since I purchased it brand new in 2018. Last year the first one to stop working was in the driver door. I figured this made sense because I am usually riding alone so this door gets more of a work out. But last month the passenger rear door lock stopped working as well. I purchased the extended warranty so both of the locks were fixed after a $100 deductible for each occurrence. This morning I notice my driver side rear door would not unlock. I figured I can't be the only person experiencing this issue.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Honda Accord LX 2015 engine sputtered and failed 3 times while in idle with A/C on then won’t start after that. Battery, alternator confirmed good. Use medium grade gas BP, lights on, drives well after it starts. Changed battery-mechanic says good. So why does this keep happening? Am frustrated as it is expensive to change out the parts. Honda has lost its good reputation. Taking back to Honda dealer in Miami to fix again.

The approximate failure mileage was 115,000. Updated on 3/6/22: I (contact) own a 2013 Honda Accord. Contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the steering wheel inadvertently lost power steering functionality. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact was able to continue to drive the vehicle by forcefully maneuvering the steering wheel. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the power steering gear box needed to be replaced. Honda Dartmouth in Massachusetts let the contact know that the car would fall under Service Bulletin 15-056 Warranty Extension: EPS Torque Sensor (DTC 53-01 or DTC 53-02) as the power steering gear box assembly needed to be replaced but, the car did not pull the code when plugged in. The car VIN number did pull as eligible under this warranty. Contact called Honda manufacturing and they stated they would not do anything for the contact as the car did not pull the code DTC53-01 or DTC 53-02 and that the cost of repair would be at the contacts expense.
