Loud static noise from speakers When sound is off / muted , this is a concern to my safety because it’s completely loud making my ears hurt, not only that it’s very difficult to hear around my surroundings with this loud static noise playing, definitely not safe to drive and there is no way to turn it off unless I completely turn off the vehicle. It has not been inspected by anyone or dealership which is why I have made this report.

Active Noise Cancellation unit not functioning properly. At 52 MPH till passing 56 MPH the audio system creates a loud (gradual buildup) whirring noise followed by a boom before it stops. It can be very distractive and dangerous in the right conditions, as it can be misinterpreted as traffic next to or approaching the vehicle causing a short notice distraction while at a high speed. It is a reoccurring incident every time the vehicle is driven and only getting worse. Honda is aware of the issue since there is a service bulletin 921-053) released in June 2021 but has not notified any of its customers who drive an Accord. The model over several years has had this problem.

We were sitting at a red light and when accelerating once green a warning appeared on the dash stating the EVAP system was failing and to see dealer. Then more warning appeared stating the following systems were failing, ABS, TPMS, Cruise Control, Driver Assist, Electronic Power Steering. Basically all electronic systems were failing. The car would not accelerate properly. The car would not go over 2500 RPMs making acceleration nearly impossible and the car would lose speed when traveling up a hill. We managed to make it to a school parking lot to safely pull off the road. The car had to be towed to a local mechanic. This all happened with zero warning.

My vehicle is experiencing engine hesitation and it's getting worse every day I drive my car. This is a known side effect of the Honda Safety Recall notice I originally received in February of 2024. I received initial notification of a safety recall for my Honda vehicle in February of 2024 and it stated the safety issues of a possible faulty fuel pump modular. The letter expressed that they have no available parts but were working on getting them. I then received a 2nd letter regarding the fuel pump in May of 2024 and that parts were limited so they were focusing on customers who were experiencing side effect/safety issues with their car. I then received a 3rd letter in November of 2024 stating parts were ready and I just needed to contact my local Honda dealership to have my fuel pump modular replaced free of charge. I have called my dealership on at least two different occasions and have also taken my car in to Honda since then for general maintenance (oil change) and I keep being told they do not have the parts. The last time I spoke with them, I keep getting told that they do not have the parts. I am also always told they will probably call me in a couple weeks when they have the part but I never received that phone call from them. I can never seem to get a straight answer from them and am always told another excuse as to why my car and my family's safety is not important enough for them. I've even been told some of those replacement fuel pumps are needed for their newer cars.

2023 honda accord sport Steering sticking when turning causing the vehicle to over correct. Noted this at honda service center during 1st oil change and subsequent visits. Nothing ever found. Now it makes a clicking noise. Took to service center and they think it's the steering rack. Have to take it back during a weekday for confirmation. Now I'm slightly outside the warranty for parts. Service center says it could cost $4,000 to fix. No lights indicating an issue. Why hasn't Honda issued a recall on the steering rack for 2023 honda accord hybrid like they did with other models having the same issue. Very very frustrating...

Was driving to work on April 11,2025. Engine stopped working after stopping at red light, all lights on dash came on-causing me to have to push the car from a main road into a business in order to not impede traffic or get hit. Had to have it towed to a body shop. Waiting to see what is wrong with the car, will update with more information as I have it.

While driving 2023 Honda Accord at normal speed on rural road, the vehicle began to brake on it's own and driver could not over-ride this. Alarms for multiple failures showed on the dashboard. Car was stopped and would not move. Car was turned off then restarted. Dashboard alarms went away, only small information light for brake malfunction remained. Driver began to drive and tested brakes, all acted normally. Car was brought to Honda dealership. Dealership investigated and consulted with Honda engineers. They could not find a cause of the error, so nothing was fixed on the vehicle. Honda charged owner $150 to tell them nothing was wrong, even though car had taken control of brakes and stopped itself.

12/22/23: I was accelerating onto the highway when multiple error messages popped up on the screen related to brakes, emission system, power steering, and others. The car’s accelerator lost power and slowed to a stop on the side of the highway. The interior electronics didn’t lose power, and neither did power steering or power brakes to my knowledge. I restarted the car and the warning lights remained on, however the accelerator appeared to function normally. Honda was unable to diagnose or fix. 3/31/25: I was pulling out of a parking deck when the engine lost power (no throttle) at the same time that multiple error messages came on to the screen. I coasted into a parking spot (brakes appeared to work) and turned the car off. I turned it back on and all of the lights had turned off except a warning about the brakes and TPMS (I think). The engine appeared to work normally, and I immediately drove to the Southpoint Honda service center. 4/8/25: Recap from Honda: Your car had a couple issues, they're all related. The first thing you're complaining about the stalling condition that is a known issue. There's a software update that fixes that. So I got it in here to do the software update, but then I could not communicate to the vehicle. The can Gateway module was unresponsive, which the car will run fine without it. But then, I can't talk to the car. So after testing everything and finding the module to have failed, I replaced the can Gateway this morning. Everything's communicating fine and software is updating right now for the module. Then I'm going to update the pgmfi software for the ICM system to correct the communication loss within the network that causes the stalling issue. So those two issues will be corrected.

Detailed Statement of Defect and Manufacturer’s Acknowledgment – Honda Fuel Pump Recall (2017–2020 Acura and Honda Models) Overview of Recall: On December 21, 2023, American Honda Motor Co., Inc. publicly announced a voluntary safety recall affecting approximately 2.6 million Acura and Honda vehicles in the United States from model years 2017 through 2020. This large-scale recall concerns a critical defect in the fuel pump system that has the potential to cause engine stalling while the vehicle is in motion, posing a serious safety risk. Technical Description of the Defect: The issue stems from an improperly molded fuel pump impeller—a component responsible for fuel delivery within the pump. The molding defect results in the production of low-density impellers that are prone to deformation. Over time, these impellers can degrade and interfere with the fuel pump body, ultimately rendering the fuel pump inoperative. Should the fuel pump module fail during vehicle operation, the engine may not start or could stall without warning, which significantly increases the risk of a crash or injury due to the sudden loss of engine power, particularly at high speeds or in heavy traffic conditions. Manufacturer’s Response and Limitations: Honda has stated that it will replace the affected fuel pump modules free of charge, and claims that no crashes or injuries have been reported at the time of the announcement. However, it is critical to note: •Countermeasure replacement parts are currently unavailable in sufficient quantities to address all recalled vehicles simultaneously. •Honda plans to notify vehicle owners in stages, with initial notifications to begin in early February 2024, followed by additional notices as parts become available. •This delay in availability and communication may expose vehicle owners to ongoing safety risks without immediate remedy. Legal and Consumer Impact Considerations: While Honda has initiated recall efforts, the scope and severity o
