FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, ENGINE
Fuel Injectors had to be replaced, and the vehicle only 54,084 miles. Vehicles with the same engine, made by Honda, are being recalled. Furthermore, I have seen recalls for the 2018-2020 Honda Accord being recalled, but my VIN does not acknowledge this recall. I was at a stoplight, and turning right on when the car lost power and went into limp mode. Fortunately, there was no one coming (On a fairly busy street) when I made the turn. I pulled to the side, and turned the car off, and started it again. I was driving less than a mile to my next workplace when this incident happened. After my work shift was done I turned on the car and lit up like a Christmas tree (The mechanics words when he saw the dashboard). I held my breath to get the car to the dealership (Around 10 miles away). The following "lit up" on the car: 1. Electric Power Steering System Problem. Steering Assist Reduced. See your dealer. 2. Adaptive Cruise Control System Problem. See your dealer. 3. Road Departure Mitigation System Problem. See your dealer. 4. Emission System Problem. Avoid Heavy Acceleration and high speed. See your dealer. 5. Tire Pressure Low 6. Brake System Problem. Brake Performance may be reduced. See your dealer. 7. Brake Hold System Problem. Apply Brake when stopped. See your dealer. 8. Vehicle Stability Assist System Problem. Reduced traction and handling. See your dealer. 9. Hill start assist problem. Vehicle may roll upon brake release. See your dealer. 10. Collision Mitigation braking system problem. See your dealer.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Head gasket and fuel injector. Causing stalling of the vehicle. Over heating. Have almost been hit with my kids in the car from stalling. Honda has confirmed this and the car has only 125k miles. This is COMMON in this car and should be recalled before someone is killed. In this economy who can afford 5500 dollars on a car that isn’t old to fix? I have driven all my past vehicles into 200k miles and never had these issues and have taken much better care of this car.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, STEERING
A loud clicking/knocking noise that sounds dangerous while steering the vehicle at low speed; such as turning into a parking spot or making a u-turn. The noise occurs throughout the day but is not constant. My vehicle has been inspected several times and Honda claims to not hear this loud noise. As soon as I drive away I hear it and all of my passengers hear it. This noise started at the beginning of 2023.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
When turning and there is a slip in the Vehicle Stability Assist, it results in shut off and warning of multiple features, including: adaptive cruise control, hill start assist, tire pressure monitoring system, brake system, electric power steering, vehicle power steering, collision mitigation braking system, and road departure mitigation. The issue has happened randomly (~8 times now, the most recent being 6/15/24), the first being less than one year after I bought the car new in 2018. It turns off after I turn off and start the car again. I have spoken to the dealer and reached out to the warranty provider, but because the car does not display the error message when I go there, the dealer refuses to look at the car. My guess is that it may be an issue with an ECU or the differential, as it results in the failure of many systems.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
When the vehicle in front of me slows down significantly, my Accord will flash the automatic brake warning and come to a complete stop. Once stopped the vehicle does not accelerate for a few moments. Several times I’ve pressed the acceleration pedal to the floor with no acceleration, the vehicle in front of me long all while watching cars swerve behind me to not rear end me. The several times this has happened the vehicle has left me completely stopped in heavy traffic, the middle of an intersection, or lastly an empty road as the vehicle stopped for a median…

ENGINE
Drove to work, about 35 miles. Few hours later went to leave to get a cup of coffee, started car and ALL lights came on dash and seems like every feature cycled through indicated nonfunctional. Drove to dealership, head gasket leak and piston misfiring, $4200. Car is a 2018 Honda Accord EX-L with 62000 miles. Seems strange to have such an extensive issue with a honda with such low miles. Can you investigate. Thanks

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Due to the fuel pump module recall by Honda, I took my 2018 Honda Accord to Stevenson Hendricks Honda located in Wilmington, NC on [XXX]. Stevenson Hendricks Honda refused to replace my fuel pump module claiming that my car head gasket was blown which isn't true. I had a mechanic to verify the head gasket wasn't blown. Prior to going to the dealer, I contacted Honda Foundation at 1-800 999-1009 who instructed Stevenson Hendricks to replace fuel pump module, and not to charge me like they told me when I made my [XXX] appointment. Stevenson Hendricks Honda needs to be held accountable to replace the fuel pump module on my car as required by the Honda recall notice I received in the mail.

ENGINE
Vehicle continues to jerk, stall, and goes into lymph mode. Vehicle stall in flow of traffic which can cause a major accident. The problem has not been confirmed by dealer. The vehicle has not been inspected by dealer. Independent Mechanic states engine stalls under a load. Warning lights that appear are emission system problem, brake system failure, electric power steering problem, engine light, brake system. This began about a month ago only worsening. It occurs upon acceleration. Vehicle has been put in shop. Changed coil pack, spark plugs, injectors. Still that does not solve problem.
