UNKNOWN OR OTHER, BACK OVER PREVENTION: SENSING SYSTEM: CAMERA
THIS IS IN REGARDS TO NHTSA RECALL 18V-629/MFR ID V2F (REAR CAMERA). AFTER BEING "REPAIRED" ONCE UNDER THIS RECALL, THE REAR CAMERA FAILED A SECOND TIME! THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED IT AS THE SAME PROBLEM. WHEN THEY LEARNED THAT I HAD ALREADY HAD IT REPAIRED ONCE (BY THEM), THEY CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA. HONDA THEN REQUIRED ME TO PAY FOR A BRAND NEW CAMERA FOR MY 2018 ACCORD WHICH WAS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD. *TR

THERE ARE NUMEROUS FACTORY PAINT DEFECTS INCLUDING ON THE REAR DOOR, TRUCK LID, AND ROOF. THE PAINT QUALITY IS VERY POOR. I HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND HAVE CONTACTED HONDA OF NORTH AMERICA, THEY ARE BOTH UNRESPONSIVE TO MY DEMANDS TO MAKE REPAIRS. THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE 3-YEAR BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. *TR

STEERING
DURING A 400 MILE HIGHWAY ROAD TRIP IN NOVEMBER 2019 MY 2018 ACCORD STEERING STARTED TO STICK. IT FEELS LIKE YOU HAVE TO BREAK A HITCH TO KEEP THE VEHICLE IN THE CENTER OF THE ROAD. TWICE I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BUT BECAUSE THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED NOTHING WAS DONE. MOST OF THE COMPLAINTS I READ THIS PROBLEM OCCURS DURING LONG TRIPS, SO UNLESS THE TECH TAKES THE VEHICLE ON A TRIP THE PROBLEM WILL NOT BE DUPLICATED. MAYBE THE VEHICLE OR A COMPONENT ON THE VEHICLE HAS TO REACH A CERTAIN TEMPERATURE FOR THE ISSUE TO SHOW. TURNING OFF FEATURES I PURCHASED ON THE CAR IS NOT A FIX!!! THIS ISSUE TOOK THE JOY OUT OF OWNING THIS CAR. I WANT A REPLACEMENT ON HONDA'A DIME!!!!!

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
THE PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE STARTED THREE MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT IN NOVEMBER 2018. I HAVE FOUR DOCUMENTED CASES WITH THE DEALERSHIP. AS WELL AS 7 VIDEOS OF THE INCIDENT TAKEN PLACE WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE TACHOMETER AND ENTIRE DASHBOARD, INCLUDING ENTERTAINMENT CENTER, SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY WHILE USING THE GPS. THE SYSTEM REBOOTS ITSELF WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. HONDA CORPORATE IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAD NOT PROVIDED A FIX FOR THE ISSUE TO DATE, DESPITE REPRESENTATIONS THAT SUCH FIXES WOULD BE AVAILABLE BY FALL OF LAST YEAR. I ALSO HAVE VOICEMAIL FROM THE SERVICE AND PARTS DIRECTOR OF THE DEALERSHIP ADMITTING FAULT AND NO FIXES FOR THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE I CAN SHARE. FOR "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?", I HAVE PUT THE APPROXIMATE LAST TIME THIS ISSUE AROSE. THE PROBLEM IS ONGOING AND HAS BEEN SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN NOVEMBER 2018. PLEASE NOTE THAT MY PDF FILES CANNOT GO BELOW 6MB, SO I NEED TO SUBMIT THAT TO YOU SOME OTHER WAY WHEN YOU CONTACT ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
ACCORD ACCELERATES TO SURGE AT RANDOM - IT HAPPENED 4 TIMES. TWO TIMES WHEN WE WERE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY, ONE TIME ON THE STREET, AND ONE TIME WAS WHEN WE WERE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT! WE HAD TO BRAKE VERY, VERY HARD, AND USE OUR EMERGENCY BRAKE! WE ARE LUCKY THAT NO ONE WAS IN THE CROSS-WALK WHEN THIS OCCURRED. AS YOU SEE IN THE ATTACHED RECEIPT, THE PROBLEM IS THE TAPE USED WHEN OUR ACCORD WAS BUILT. THE DEALER SAID THAT THIS IS HAPPENING ONCE PER MONTH AT THEIR LOCATION WHERE CARS ARE BROUGHT IN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE WIRES ARE FAULTY BECAUSE RODENTS ARE ATTRACTED TO CHEW ON THE CARS WIRES SPECIFICALLY. WHEN WE CALLED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE SAID THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, AND HAS MADE RAT TAPE TO ADDRESS IT, BUT THAT HONDA IS WAITING TO HIT A CERTAIN NUMBER NUMBERS OF COMPLAINTS SO THAT IT IS ENOUGH TO MEET ITS THRESHOLD BEFORE ISSUING A FULL RECALL.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK, A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE WAS SMELLED IN THE CAR. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND AFTER 5 DAYS THEY STILL HAVEN'T FOUND THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE ATTEMPTED TO DEODORIZE THE CAR EACH DAY AND VENTILATE IT USING FANS BUT I DON'T KNOW IF THE FUEL SYSTEM HAS BEEN CHECKED.

VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
CAR ON A STRAIGHT ROAD, NO ADVERSE WEATHER CONDITIONS. THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEMS SHUTS DOWN. THIS HAS OCCURRED DURING BOTH DAY AND NIGHT TIME AND HAS HAPPENED SIX TIMES. THE RADAR PANEL WAS NOT OBSTRUCTED. THE CMBS CAN ONLY BE RESET BY STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE CAR. I HAVE CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER'S CUSTOMER SUPPORT WITH NO RESOLUTION. I HAVE CONTACTED AT LEAST TWO DEALER SERVICE CENTERS WITH THIS PROBLEM, NO RESOLUTION. THEY SAY THEY NEED TO SEE THE ERROR CODE - PROBLEM IS, THE WARNING RESETS WHEN THE CAR IS RESTARTED. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED BY OTHER CUSTOMERS ON THE CAR COMPLAINTS WEBSITE. MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE WAS ON 06 FEB 2020. THE CMBS HAS SHUT DOWN AT DIFFERENT MILEAGES, BOTH IN AND OUT OF THE CARS WARRANTY.
