POWER TRAIN
Both the passenger and driver side CV axles have a rubber vibration isolator mounted in the center of each drive axle. The rubber is cracking and showing rust heave underneath, The attachment method has deteriorated and the rubber damper is trapping moisture and salt that have seeped underneath. This has caused significant corrosion to the steel axle thereby weakening the axle and creating a safety hazard due to potential breakage. Neither axle has broken yet, but there are currently recalls on other model year Honda Accords for the same issue.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
Several months ago, my Honda that has run very well up until now, started having problems with starting. I took it to Advance Auto and they thought it was the battery so I bought a new battery for over $200. That didn’t help. Then my husband noticed that the dashboard showed to push the brake, gas pedal and starter at the same time. That didn’t really help because sometimes it starts and sometimes doesn’t. We made an appointment at a local dealer where we purchased the car and the maintenance man suggested a new starter but reading through the complaints on here, that doesn’t always help. So he will cancel our appointment. With so many complaints on here about the car not starting, I think it’s your duty to come up with a resolution that works. Several times I have driven the car to places not near our home and the car won’t start. I think this is an unsafe condition and should be repaired!

ENGINE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
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 .

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM: INSTRUMENT CLUSTER/PANEL
All warning lights of my Honda accord turned on/off 4 months ago. The dealership inspected my car and told me that problem is the fuel injectors and he cleaned them but they might need replacement if the problem comes back. After one day the engine light turned on and sometimes all the warning lights which caused disabling the ADAS function. I took my Honda to the dealer again and said the fuel injectors have a problem, they need replacement. The dealer stated that it is not covered by the powertrain warranty. He quoted me $1767.00 which I cannot afford, I did my search online there are many Honda accord 2018 that reported the same problem so I believe it is a defective part from the manufacture

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Multiple instance of the car providing "BRAKE" annunciation, rapid deceleration, and brake application at highway speeds when passing vehicles. Often happens when passing semi trucks, but not limited to them. Several instances this rapid and unexpected brake application has required driver action to avoid rear-end collisions with the car behind who may be following too closely. Unable to completely turn off the CMBS system, must be done per drive. With that system turned off the braking application is expectedly absent during these events, but the car will still provide a rapid deceleration (as if a driver took their foot off the accelerator pedal) but without brake application which also has been problematic for cars following. Local dealer confirmed that the system is functioning without warnings or errors, no recalls are active for the car, and the alignment and function of all related sensors are per the manufacturer. Dealer claims they are unable to reproduce the issue.

SERVICE BRAKES, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS, LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING
The ABS Modulator has failed. It is available for inspection for $120 at the dealer which does not go towards the repair. I went to an independent shop and was told that they can't figure out the problem because of the complex computer system in Hondas. I then had it inspected at Honda and was told I need to replace the modulator for $1650 parts and labor. The ABS system including the front collision warning and lane departure warning are no longer reliable. If I put off the repair I am at risk of the antilock brake system failing and the brakes locking up, the stability and traction control not working, and the brake pedal may become unresponsive over time. There are 5 warning lights that come on intermittently. This has been happening for the last year. This is a defective part and an ongoing problem for 2013-2015 Honda owners with many forums discussing the issue. It can occur with any amount of mileage on the car so that doesn't seem to be a factor.
