LANE DEPARTURE, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA ACCORD. WHILE DRIVING 30-40 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE LANE ASSIST SYSTEM AND LANE MITIGATION WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. IN THE MIDDLE OF COMPLETING THE TURN, THE LANE MITIGATION FEATURE ACTIVATED AND STEERED THE VEHICLE TO THE RIGHT. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE STRUCK A BOULDER AND FRACTURED THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SUSPENSION, WHICH DAMAGED THE BODY OF THE VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO CORAL SPRINGS AUTO MALL (9300 W ATLANTIC BLVD, CORAL SPRINGS, FL 33071, (954) 369-1016) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS A MISCOMMUNICATION BETWEEN SEVERAL OF THE SAFETY FEATURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,000.

I PURCHASED THE CAR JULY 3RD, 2018. DRIVING ON A TRIP AT AROUND 900 MILES AND HAD THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED. THE CAR MADE A BEEPING SOUND AND THE CRUISE CONTROL POWERED OFF. A MESSAGE CAME UP STATING COLLISION MITIGATION BREAKING SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE SERVICED. THE CRUISE WOULD NOT COME BACK ON. WHEN I ARRIVED AT THE DESTINATION I TURNED THE CAR OFF, AND UPON TURNING IT BACK ON THE WARNING WAS GONE. I DROVE HOME WITH NO PROBLEM.

SERVICE BRAKES, POWER TRAIN
I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT DOWN A RESIDENTIAL STREET, ACCELERATING AND THE BRAKING SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND THE TRANSMISSION AUTOMATICALLY WENT INTO NEUTRAL. THE CAR MOTOR WAS STILL RUNNING BUT THE CAR WAS INOPERABLE. THE GEARSHIFT INDICATED THE CAR TO BE IN DRIVE BUT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I MOVED THROUGH THE AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFT SELECTIONS BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. THE DASH BRAKE FAILURE CONTACT DEALER LIGHT APPEARED, THEN TRANSMISSION FAILURE CONTACT DEALER WARNING LIGHT APPEARED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS INSTRUCTED TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART, WHICH I DID. THE CAR RESTARTED, THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE ONE BLOCK TO HOME. THE DEALER TOLD ME TO DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID NOT DO AS I DID NOT FEEL IT WAS SAFE. IT WAS FORTUNATE I WAS NOT ON A FREEWAY OR IN TRAFFIC AS I MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED BECAUSE IT CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP UNEXPECTEDLY; FOR NO APPARENT REASON AND NO NOTICE LIKE BRAKE STOP LIGHTS TO WARN OTHER DRIVERS THE CAR WAS STOPPING. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

SERVICE BRAKES
JUST LIKE OTHERS HAVE SAID, I'M ALSO HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE SENSITIVITY OF MY BRAKE PEDAL. THE BRAKE FEELS LIKE THERE ARE STEPS TO IT INSTEAD OF A SMOOTH LINEAR PEDAL. I HAVE NEVER DRIVEN A CAR WITH A BRAKE PEDAL LIKE THIS. FROM THE FIRST STOP LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP AFTER BUYING MY 2018 HONDA ACCORD 1.5, I KNEW SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH THE BRAKES. THE PEDAL FEELS BINARY LIKE THE BRAKES ARE EITHER ON OR OFF AND NOT SMOOTH AND LINEAR. IT'S EITHER FULL BRAKE OR NO BRAKE AND NO IN BETWEEN. THERE ARE STEPS TO THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IT MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE TO BRAKE SMOOTHLY. THIS HAS CAUSED BACK PAIN AND IF THE ACCORD I TEST DROVE FELT THAT WAY, I WOULD HAVE NEVER BOUGHT ONE. I DROVE A FRIEND'S 18 ACCORD AND IT DIDN'T FEEL THAT WAY AT ALL. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALER TWICE NOW AND I TOLD THEM THE BRAKE BOOSTER IS LIKELY THE ISSUE AND THEY'VE JUST PUSHED BACK WITH "IT FEELS FINE" OR "IT NEEDS TO BREAK IN". WILL BE OPENING A COMPLAINT WITH HONDA OF AMERICA.

SEATS
TERRIBLE PAIN IN LEGS, ESPECIALLY LEFT LEG, AND BUTTOCKS WHEN DRIVING THIS CAR. HAVE TRIED EVERY VARIATION OF SEAT ADJUSTMENTS (AND DO HAVE LUMBAR SUPPORT) AND PILLOWS, BUT NO HELP. MY PHYSICAL THERAPIST SAYS IT IS BEST TO SIT WITH SPINE AND LEGS AT 90 DEGREES, HEAD STRAIGHT ON TOP OF SPINE. THIS CAR SEAT FORCES HEAD FORWARD AND BUTT LOWER THAN KNEES. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS, I GAVE UP -MAKING ME MISERABLE. I WAS LUCKILY ABLE TO GO BACK TO OLD CAR WHICH IS MORE COMFORTABLE. IT CAN'T BE SAFE TO DRIVE WHEN IN THIS MUCH PAIN. I HAVE ALSO TRIED MOST OF THE OTHER IIHS TSP SEDANS AND WOULD REALLY LIKE TO HAVE THE NEWER SAFETY DEVICES (LIKE BACK UP CAMERA, ADAPTIVE CRUISE, LANE KEEPING ASSIST, BLIND SPOT ALERTS) BUT ALL SEEM TO BE JUST AS UNCOMFORTABLE. CAN'T OUR ENGINEERS MANAGE TO MEET SAFETY AND COMFORT NEEDS? THANKS.

AIR BAGS, STRUCTURE:BODY
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA ACCORD. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE PASSENGER AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR FAILED TO ILLUMINATE 'OFF'. THE CONTACT ALSO MENTIONED THAT THE DASHBOARD VIBRATED ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WHILE DRIVING; HOWEVER, THE VIBRATION STOPPED WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED TWICE FOR THE VIBRATION FAILURE AT HONDA WINDWARD (45-671 KAMEHAMEHA HWY, KANEOHE, HI 96744, (808) 247-8544). THE DEALER STATED THAT A NEW AIR CONDITIONING BELT WAS TAPED ONTO THE UNIT. THE BELT WAS COVERED WITH FOAM TO KEEP IT ATTACHED TO THE UNIT. AS THE BELT PRESSED AGAINST THE AIR CONDITIONING UNIT IT MADE A NOISE AND, COUPLED WITH AN UNKNOWN OBJECT UNDER THE DASHBOARD, CAUSED A VIBRATION. THE AIR BAG FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. NEITHER THE AIR BAG OR VIBRATION FAILURE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,090. *TT

AT 670 MILES, I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY AROUND A CORNER WHEN I HEARD A LONG BEEP FOLLOWED BY A "COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEM. SEE YOUR DEALER" MESSAGE. THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ALSO STOPPED WORKING. I RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE ERROR WENT AWAY. ABOUT A WEEK LATER AT 813 MILES, I WAS DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT ROAD AT 55 MPH WITH THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED WHEN I HEARD A LONG BEEP, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGED, AND I RECEIVED THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE AS BEFORE. RESTARTING THE VEHICLE CLEARS THE ERROR AND ALLOWS THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL TO WORK AGAIN UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT OCCURS. BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED WERE ON WARM, SUNNY, CLEAR DAYS WITH DRY ROADS AND NO OBSTRUCTIONS IN FRONT OF THE RADAR OR CAMERA UNITS. YESTERDAY, THE CMBS FAILED TO ALERT ME TO A FOUR-WHEELER THAT DROVE ACROSS THE STREET IN FRONT OF ME AND IT SEEMS LESS SENSITIVE AT DETECTING OTHER VEHICLES NOW - EVEN WHEN THERE ARE NO ERROR MESSAGES OR WARNING INDICATORS PRESENT.
