I moved the shifter to park and then to drive and it began to move forward I don't now that happened but it got me a bit upset This was yesterday 10/23/25 and today I took my son t the the airport and all was OK. I am worried that may happen again and I'll be stuck somewhere.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, STEERING
Wiring harness failed randomly at 42,000 with no damage to the harness, engine, or vehicle itself. Without the wiring harness the engine does not run properly and shakes violently, causing the car to lose power. This happened with no prior warnings, problems, or damage. Additionally the steering rack seems “loose” and changes direction quite quickly when hitting a pothole or uneven roads even at lower speeds. I have to make sure I constantly have a firm grip on the wheel so no sudden unexpected direction changes occur due to imperfections in the road.

STEERING
Steering rack clunking on every turn of the wheel. Common problem being reported online, Honda does do replacements but often dealers will fight over the severity of the problem. A brand new vehicle should not have steering problems.

STEERING, SERVICE BRAKES, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I was sitting in my car, and the entire steering and brake system went offline and the car had a bunch of hazard lights on and said to tow to a dealership. I tested the steering, and didn’t feel the wheels turn with the steering wheel, and the brakes went to the floor. When I went to shut off my car, it did the emergency shut-off (press 2xs or hold for 3 seconds). I attempted to restart the car about 4 times that night, and then I let it sit and tried it again 2 more times before having it towed to the dealership. The dealership stated they received the car and everything was suddenly fine and there were no code history, and they could not tell me the issue. Prior to this, the only issue I had was the car braking when no one was in front of me, but no issues with the steering wheel. With the entire brake system and steering system out, it could have caused a serious accident if I was driving at the time, but I was parked.

STEERING, STRUCTURE:BODY, LANE DEPARTURE: ASSIST
Purchased my car brand new. Within 1.5 years I've had to have 2 steering racks replaced and another component replaced within the steering column. Currently my lane keeping assist problem is on and I'm waiting to get appt confirmation from the service dept manager. My infotainment center went black and quit working and had to be replaced a little over a year after purchasing the car. The paint began peeling off my front bumper within 6 months of purchasing the car. I'm currently dealing with the Honda I purchased from to try to come to a resolution of this issue since I don't want my brand new car to have a bumper repainted and possibly not match and have it show up on a carfax report. Also have what the dealership calls "fisheyes" under the clear coat of the factory paint. Approx 20-25 spots on my entire car. The dealership said they could "buff" the places but shouldnt have left the factory in that condition. The body shop that Honda sent me too said once they started buffing on the "fisheyes" that they couldn't guarantee that the buffing of the spots would correct the issue or if they would need to repaint which I'm not ok with since it is a brand new car and paint might not even match the rest of the car. Also', I should add that all the maintenance and repairs have been completed at the dealership where I purchased my car brand new.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
I was driving on an expressway 355 on Friday July 25. It was raining hard. I slowed down and was getting ready to exit on 55 when the lights On the dash all started lighting up and telling me it required immediate attention at the dealer. The car would not accelerate. I was going slow and was able to idol to the space between 355 and 55. There were cars all around me. I put my hazards on and turned it off. I waited a minute and restarted it. Luckily it started and I was able to drive. This happened on an expressway during a storm I was terrified and worried that I would cause an accident by not being able to move the vehicle. This happened once before also while raining but was in a parking lot of a gas station. I took it in and they told me it’s the 12V battery. However was not failing while at dealer. This is a serious safety issue.

VISIBILITY/WIPER
I am writing to report a recurring issue with my 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid. The interior rear-view mirror has detached multiple times from the windshield under normal conditions and adjustments. This poses a safety concern, as it obstructs proper rear visibility and could become a distraction while driving due to the detachment. I believe this issue warrants further investigation to determine if it is isolated or part of a broader defect. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
I purchased my Honda accord June 21, 2024. For the first 3 months, the brake system indicator rectangle shape amber light (blinked on and off for several seconds) on 8 separate occasions when driving this car, so I brought the car to Honda Dealer that concluded it must be dust on the brake For the next 3 months, the brake system indicator rectangle light (blinked amber on and off) on 6 separate occasions, the Honda Dealer told me they could not find a problem with the brake, For the next 4 months,the brake system indicator rectangle light (blinked amber on and off) on 3 separate occasion , again the Honda dealer told me they could not find a problem but I noted that the dealer did not have record this on the work order. I then called Honda customer service (800-999-1009) support on June 23, 2025 at 1:17pm. I told the representative that the 2024 owners manual on page 84-85 did not have an amber brake indicator message among the 30 or so indicators in the manual. On page 493, the manual also mentions "If the brake system indicator (RED) comes on or blinks, there is a malfunction in the brake system" On page 494, the manual also mentions "if the brake system indicator (RED) comes on or blinks at the same time when the brake system indicator (AMBER), release the parking brake. The representative could not explain what a blinking amber brake system indicator meant and I should return car to the Honda dealer. Upon my insistence, my call was escalated and that a senior representative agreed that an blinking amber brake indicator explanation is not in the Owners Manual and could not provide me with an answer. Her best guess was that I was to close to a car in front of me (even though this has happened when there was not car in from of me). Can the NHTSA provide me with an explanation on why the brake system indicator rectangle light (blinked amber on and off) or have Honda provide the NHTSA with an explanation if this represents a dangerous situation to dri
