UNKNOWN OR OTHER
My 2018 Honda Accord has suddenly experienced a Backup Camera display issue. The glitch leads to a multicolored display to show on the display screen when the vehicle is put in reverse gear in order to back up. This is a safety issue since we do not have a clear line of sight when backing up using the backup camera. Please see the attached photo. Please note that there have been multiple reports of similar incidents on Honda forums online.

Forward Collision Warning feature On 02/16/24 I was traveling east on I-630 at about 60 mph. While driving at that speed I saw a foreign object in my lane but I could not swerve in neither right or left lane as there were vehicles traveling in both lanes when my car hit the foreign object the object became lodged under the car dragging it at least 20 to 30 feet the car lost power myself and passenger had to push car out of road to shoulder to keep from getting killed as it had lost power and would not start. The Forward Collision Warning feature did not alert me of the object nor of the vehicle’s traveling ahead of me nor vehicles traveling in left and right lanes along side of me that I attempted to avoid hitting. I had previously filed a complaint about the warning lights and malfunctioning features on the car to dealership on 2019 2020 and 2021 I was told it could be a series of reasons why the warning lights are all on and the car features shut down even the car losing its power I was never able to get my car on the recall list for this I filed a complaint with Honda Manufacturer 2022 and was told that someone would be in touch but no one ever called I took the car back to dealership tech stated that the cracked windshield maybe the cause of the warning lights coming on so I got windshield , spark plugs, battery twice, replaced all for tires twice kept scheduled services up to par warning lights still on in-car still losing power in the middle of traffic on 01/20/24 I tried getting appt for fuel pump recall dealerships states they donot have the inventory to replace fuel pump I was told when Honda manufacturer contact dealerships giving the go ahead to repair I will l be contacted fast forward to 02/16/24 this is the result of none of features functioning especially the Forward Collision Warning feature my car now is at a loss of use it does not start the oil panel was damaged the radiator was crushed the sensor dislodged and body was damage to vehicle

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I received a notice that my car has a recall for a faulty fuel pump system. over the last year i have been dealing with the issues of this problem and have to multiple mechanics and no one could figure out what was wrong until this recall came out. I have had my car stall on me multiple times on the freeway, my car will idle rough all the time, poor fuel consumption and my check engine light goes on and off all the time. Because of this I have been unable to drive my care for months. I called John Hinderer Honda in Newark Ohio late January since there was finally a remedy available and scheduled my care to be fixed for the recall. I dropped it off on [XXX], upon arrival an employee sat in my car and noticed that it was idling rough. I get a call the next day from them stating that because the check engine light is not on at the moment it is not a concern for them at this time to fix the recall on my vehicle even after everything that has happened in the last year.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
The left front headlight assembly failed this includes the low beam headlight and turn signal and parking lights. Subsequently the turn signal and emergency flasher for the entire car failed. After having the assembly replaced the mechanic found that the turn signal flasher problem wass related to a blown fuse. The headlight assembly failure was diagnosed as being caused by water in the light assembly. In addition it was noted that the right front assembly was contaminated by water and will probably fail in the future.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
I purchased my vehicle from Lithia, Inc. d/b/a Wilde Honda in Waukesha, Wisconsin new. Wilde Honda serviced the vehicle on [XXX], after I reported that all lights in the vehicle were coming on. In addition, I experienced an incident on the highway where my car failed to accelerate, putting me in extreme danger. On [XXX], after my vehicle was returned to me, I experienced substantially similar issues immediately, with the same problems accelerating, all of the dash lights coming on, and a rumbling and jittering sound when the vehicle was first started. Wild Honda charged me $4,956.36 for repairs, which did not resolve any issues. I wrote to Alex Reed of Wilde Honda regarding these issues. Mr. Reed assured me that the underlying problem was resolved by replacing a fuel injector, and I was charged an additional $350.00. On [XXX], I again experienced the same dangerous issue where all the lights came on. Once again, I found myself on the highway, unable to accelerate and faced with a dangerous situation. I have made repeated demands to Lithia to reimburse me for the repairs charged to me, as well as for the fair market value of my vehicle as it can no longer be operated safely. Lithia d/b/a Wilde Honda has made no efforts to resolve this situation and disclaims all responsibility. After researching this issue, I discovered that In October 2018, American Honda notified dealerships that vehicles equipped with a 1 1.5L turbo direct-injection engine “may experience engine oil dilution” and that this “may result in increased oil level and can cause a [cylinder] misfire” and cause a variety of symptoms including a check light indicator due to an engine misfire, a low oil pressure light, and abnormal engine noises. In fact, American Honda reached out and requested that dealerships contact them if the dealerships came across similar issues that plagued my vehicle as American Honda was trying to determine the underlying issue.

The vehicle started idling rough and would seem like it was going to stall out. Eventually every light came on in the dash board and when I brought it to the shop, the head gasket had blown. This is a 2018 Honda accord with 99k miles. Regular maintenance has always been maintained. Upon doing research, a lot of people with this make/ model and low mileage have had this same issue. This appears to be a mechanical issue caused by the manufacturer.

All the warning lights turn on and the car loses power when accelerating. It shows the check engine code P0301. The spark plug and coil are fine. Potential issue is the fuel injector leaking.

Hello, I’m submitting this complaint regarding the Head Gasket issue being Blown out on my Vehicle, it only had (136,656) miles and has a good service and maintenance history which should have prevented the Head Gasket from blowing out, however I was informed by the Honda Service Advisor that this is an ongoing issue and that they are seeing much more of these vehicles coming in with a blown Head Gasket, unfortunately I had no other choice but to purchase a used engine and make the immediate repairs because Honda’s Head Gasket’s are in a serious Back order due to the aforementioned issue effecting many other Honda owners.
