Paint is peeling on the roof along the sides in the grooves and in the groove between the back window and the body. This appears to be the exact same paint issue that was reported on the 2018 Honda Accord models made at this plant. I just noticed this today (9/19/25) but given the rust, this has probably been a problem for longer.
It appears the head gasket failed due to an anomaly on the engine block between cylinders. We were driving down the road when the engine lost power and went into limp mode ( dealer term). The problem of the head gasket was confirmed by the dealer, but the anomaly on the short block has not been explained. The engine block was inspected by the service tech, service manager and a rep from Honda. No explanation given. No warning lights came on until immediately after the engine lost power. The engi
While traveling at approximately 55 mph yesterday, in daylight, with no other cars in front, back, or to the side of our car, it radically braked on its own. The collision mitigation system warning light has frequently flashed on the dashboard since we bought the car new in 2019 but never did it apply the brakes on its own. Dealerships over the years have told us "this just happens", and offered no fix for the false positive alerts. This is a dangerous situation which could result in an accident
Component or System Failed: The head gasket appears to have failed, leading to coolant leaking into cylinder 4. This has been confirmed by two separate service centers. The vehicle is currently available for inspection if needed. Safety Risk: The failure caused engine misfires and dashboard warning lights to activate while driving, which could have led to a sudden loss of power or control. I had to pull over and restart the vehicle to regain drivability, which put my safety and that of others a
All of sudden, no incident, no accident, a lot of things were disabled such as Adaptive Cruise Control , Forward Collision Warning , Lane Departure Warning and more while I was out of town (long range highway travel). When I went to Honda dealership, they blamed a few things and fixed them (expensive), then they said that the front camera needed a calibration. It was expensive. After that aiming correction, everything works fine. The camera was NOT broken. It just needed recalibration, a

I was driving on a city street at about 30mph. There was no one in front of me or behind me. Nothing in the road. The orange rectangular brake light came on for no reason, kept flashing and it felt as if the brakes were automatically being pumped, slowing the car down to a compete stop. In addition, I had no control of the steering. It was very dangerous situation which could have resulted in accident or injury.

Blown head gasket repaired after unknown coolant loss. Eventually intermittent warnings to pull over and slow down which resolved within seconds. Continued until it was determined the gasket had failed. Numerous instances of hybrid engines failing in this manner. Repaired by independent shop.
I was driving on the freeway and my engine lost power and all the lights on my dashboard went haywire. I tried to get off the freeway but with the loss of power made it extremely difficult and dangerous. I thought I was going to get into an accident since my car slowed down so abruptly. I had to limp my way across traffic which was very scary. The car was jerking and shaking. I finally got to the side of the freeway and the car did not want to continue so I called for a tow truck and waited

Active Noise Cancellation unit not functioning properly. At 52 MPH till passing 56 MPH the audio system creates a loud (gradual buildup) whirring noise followed by a boom before it stops. It can be very distractive and dangerous in the right conditions, as it can be misinterpreted as traffic next to or approaching the vehicle causing a short notice distraction while at a high speed. It is a reoccurring incident every time the vehicle is driven and only getting worse. Honda is aware of the issu
Forward collision warning stopped working after a system upgrade on my 2019 Honda Accord hybrid. I activate the forward support and immediately it turns off. This is a safety issue. The system assist in breaking in time to maintain car distance and avoid a collision. Contacted Honda. I was told to take it to service at my cost.

Was driving on freeway my car wouldnât go faster than 45 mph. Check engine light all of a sudden Came on. Cars almost hit me from behind because my car wouldnât accelerate. Had to pull over at the exit. After pulling over and shutting down the car, I turned car back on and all warning lights came on. I was able to drive slowly to a Honda dealership which was about a mile away. Had to pay for a diagnosis and they discovered that the coolant expansion tank was completely. bubbling emerged fro
I am writing to express my serious dissatisfaction with the engine head gasket on my 2019 Honda Accord EXL. Following my Honda consultant, I have experienced a engine head gasket malfunction where it has a head gasket crack. This led to leaking into the engine piston which will cost me $5000 to repair. There was no signs and symptoms that the incident was going to happen. I would also say I am a pretty conservative driver when commuting. The ongoing engine issues could potentially lead to seriou
Suddenly I get warnings of failure of adaptive cruise control, failure of braking, stearing and forward collision warning failure. It goes away if I drive my vehicle for few miles but then suddenly appears again. No one seems to know what is the issue. I tried to reset setting multiple times, checked system updates and checked battery etc, asked to check if there are any faulty codes but no one seem to know what is going on. It keeps happening every day
