Concerned about a knocking/creaking type noise made at stop and low speeds when turning the steering wheel. This seems to be a common issue and Honda hasn't acknowledged the issue publicly. But I'm concerned about letting it go long term if American Honda does not want to provide a rack replacement.
While driving ~70 mph on highway on adaptive cruise control, the car suddenly LOST ALL POWER/ACCELERATION, including POWER STEERING and ALL WARNING LIGHTS FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD. I recalled some were BREAK SYSTEM, ACC, ABCS, CHECK ENGINE, POWER, TPMS...etc. Essentially any warning light Accord has was flashing. The car slowed with no power steering, I managed to parked on the shoulder and turned on hazard light. This is extremely dangerous as the highway traffic was extremely heavy. After I pa

My 7 year old grandson was in the left rear seat and became trapped within the seatbelt, like a noose, cinching tighter and tighter causing extreme abdominal pain and trouble breathing. This occurred when the vehicle was stopped in a parking lot, AFTER THE RELEASE of the belt from the latch. He was in a booster seat with the belt across his lap and chest. To release the clasp from the latch, he had to bend over and twist his torso to his right, reaching way down to where the red relates butto

When traveling on an Interstate Highway in the left lane of a 2-lane highway with the Adaptive Cruise Control turned on. Passing a tractor trailer going slower in the right lane, the car will apply the brakes unexpectedly. The dash will briefly show a "ghost" truck crossing into the left lane. The unexpected braking causes any vehicle behind the Accord to brake. Putting those vehicles and any behind them at risk. Smart Honda of Des Moines looked at the car on Sept. 22, 2025 reported no error co

Vehicle makes rattling noises while accelerating similar to a diesel engine also rough transitions between EV mode and Gas mode also when you press the charge button the engine makes a very noticeable jerk once itâs on ,Honda does not want to fix my issue and says everything is normal and cannot replicate the issue!! There is clearly something wrong I suspect fuel injector issues as others reported but dealer does not want to take accountability.
The car was in cruise control going 73mph on the freeway. I was passing a semi on the left hand side. When I was parallel to the semi, the car brakes hard and a big "BRAKE" light came on the cluster. There were no cars in front of me and luckily no one behind me. If there was a car behind me there would have been a collision. It was a clear day and again the road was clear. It took me from 70 to about 40 mph until I hit the accelerator to get back to speed. The CMBS is faulty and I will take it
