SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS
I keep intermittently getting a Supplemental Restraint System error. I have been on forums with other vehicle owners getting the same error. The dealer says it is a bad airbag while others are saying it could be two other less expensive remedies they have encountered such as a faulty cutoff indicator that gets overheated and the solders come loose as well as a faulty seatbelt buckle assembly. This is not a constant issue, it is intermittent and feel if the airbag was faulty it would be a constant error.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, ENGINE, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

The contact was able to pull over. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the spark plugs, ignition coils, and other unknown parts had caused the failure and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The contact stated that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The manufacturer was not contacted.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
While accelerating on the highway my car suddenly hesitated and I lost power. At the same time the check engine light came on. By the time I was safely able to pull over to the side of the road a plethora of warning lights had come on. Luckily I was not far from home and I was eventually able to make it back to the house safely with only mild hesitation. The car is currently at the dealership and they've let me know it's an issue with the fuel injector (P0303 misfire). After reading online it seems as though many folks with 2018 Honda Accord 1.5 are/have been having the same problem. This is a known issue and a recall is needed as it seriously puts lives at risk. It is only by the grace of fate that there weren't any cars behind nor to the side of me at the time of the major hesitation. My car has less than 75k miles on it so this issue is not due to wear and tear.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Vehicle stalls upon start on multiple occasions. Vehicle will not start at all on multiple occasions. On approximately February 2024 vehicle sent a warning signal while driving. Warning states vehicle cannot accelerate while driving on the highway, then vehicle slows under traffic speed causing fear of crash while on the highway causing me to pull over and restart vehicle. After restart, vehicle stalled again. Children were present in the vehicle. Called dealer to inform about the issue and was made aware of recall on fuel pump. Dealer does not have parts and will not have parts for recall for months. Called dealers near me periodically over the course of months. All local dealers reported parts will not be available for ongoing months.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
Rear backup camera color distortion. Unable to see clearly to back up. I understand that there was a recall for defective cameras for some 2018 Accords but my Vin number isn’t one of them. Don’t know why. I only have 41000 miles on my 2018 Accord, and the backup camera is dead. Should have been recalled.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING, FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
While riding down the interstate the automatic braking system slammed on the brakes. There was a semi truck in the lane beside me and for some reason it just applied the brakes and flashed the automatic brake warning sign while using the cruise control. I quickly hit the cancel button on the steering wheel to stop the braking. My lane was completely clear when this occurred. This is not the first time that this has happened. The last time this happened there was no one close to me and the same thing happened.

ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
All warning systems triggered, repeatedly, over the past year. Honda dealership misdiagnosed as a fuel injector. Had fuel injector replaced, but same issue occurred and this time all warnings came on and vehicle lost power on highway with my baby daughter inside. So, after spending thousands attempting to resolve the issue, I towed again to Honda and it was correctly diagnosed as a failed head gasket requiring $5.5K to repair. Service advisor said he's seen "many of these" recently. Called around Tampa and all mechanics advise (consistent with numerous complaints online car communities) failed head gasket is a known and common safety issue (to the extent that parts are on backorder as a result of repairs). Called American Honda Corporation and they led me to believe they would repair, but after an hour of wasting my time, and repeated requests to hold so agent could speak with supervisor, agent then said repeatedly "there is nothing we can do for you." This abject safety failure and demonstrated bad faith should not be allowed by regulators who have a duty to mandate that auto manufacturers do the right thing and issue safety recalls for known issues such as the head gasket failure I have experienced.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
Honda recall letter received February 2024, stating that car's fuel pump is defective, and will be replaced as part of the recall. It is now mid-May, four months later, and local Honda dealer has no idea when the fuel pump will be available. Meanwhile we feel unsafe driving this car. This is a very big problem for us.
