2017 Honda Accord V6; Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Module went bad and it needs to be replaced but Honda is unable to provide quick fix or a replacement part because it is backordered and they don't know when they'll have it in stock even when I am willing to pay for it upfront. This is causing my car to go out of control on wet roundabouts or when merging from interstate to local roads w/ good Tires condition and within speed limit.

I have had two major issues with my 2017 Honda Accord sport since buying it brand new that the Honda dealership will do nothing about even though I-€™ve specifically been told twice on two separate occasions that the car was manufactured defected. My mitigation systems has failed multiple times where it just stops responding losing control of the steering and accelerating on its own. One of those times caused me to run off the highway into the ditch. It just randomly iluminates all -€œmitigation systems failure-€ at the most random times. Another thing is the ridiculous tire issues I-€™ve had with this vehicle. I have put brand new set, after set, after set on this car. On two occasions atleast one my brand new tires lasted less then two weeks after purchasing due to extreme wear on the inside of the tires. Two different automotive mechanics have told me I can-€™t even have my car aligned due to the way it was manufactured they would have to completely swap out major components of my steering and suspension to do so. I believe they said it-€™s the drive line or drive shaft is to large for the car and it-€™s the cause of all my tire issues and steering issues

Twice in the past month the steering has frozen on my 2017 Honda Accord hybrid, making it nearly impossible to turn the wheel manually. Fortunately on both occasions we were driving at low speeds on city streets and could pull over or drive slowly to a destination. There were no warnings that the steering was about to freeze, but both times the automatic lane departure light came on. In the second instance I was driving on a narrow street and I was not outside of my narrow lane or I would have hit the curb or oncoming cars. The car was checked once by a highly regarded mechanic who could find nothing wrong with the steering or electronic system. This was one day after the first incident and the steering worked normally on the short ride to the mechanic. The car has now been at the dealer's service center. I am concerned that the car is not safe to drive.

- Franklin, TN, USA

As I was driving straight about 40 Mph, the steering assist failure warning, lane assist failure warning, and power steering failure warnings all came on at the same time. Had I been going around a curve or turning I would've crashed, because the steering locked up and it was extremely difficult to steer. The failures and electronic warnings cleared as I was driving the car to the dealer the following morning.

If the car sits idle for more than 4 days, the battery dies. The car has 60,000 miles and we are replaced the battery once and it continues to die if it sits for more than 4 days. The car pulls to the right side regardless of how many times I have it balanced. The LED day running light on the driver side front died when the car only had 50,000 miles on it.

They performed test which said everything. 6/4/2020 my car did the exact same thing expect this time I did drive to the dealership after getting a jump start. Later that evening I went to start the car and it wouldn't start. 6/5/2020 morning the car wouldn't start. In all incidents the car would try to turn on but wouldn't, the keyless entry worked, all lights works. The steering wheel locked on all incidents. All incidents the car was stationary. 6/5/2020 my car was towed to david hobbs Honda and they notified me the was completely dead when it arrived nothing was working. They called back later in the day after doing testing and once again said all testing was fine. However, they would like to keep my vehicle overnight to see if my car would work in the morning and to do testing again. My vehicle is still at the dealership.

The electric power steering went out due to a faulty electrical plug. It went out while my wife was driving on highway. This is an ongoing issue that is known to Honda. Yet there has not been a recall. I have not been able to drive the car for 4 weeks.

First issue I noticed with my car was that while driving on a flat road in the middle lane my car will pull slightly to the left. I took the car back to the dealer where I purchased the car, garden state Honda in passaic New Jersey, and they reported the wheel alignment was within specifications. I drove the car and the issue persisted. Next day I took the car to another Honda dealer, dch paramus Honda in paramus New Jersey, and again it was reported by this dealer that the wheel alignment was within specifications. I drove my car after consulting with the dealers but the problem still persist. The second issue happened when the front right tire developed a bubble (2/3/2018. 15691 miles) on the side after hitting a pothole on the highway. I took my car to garden state Honda regarding the tire damage and they declined replacement of the tire and increased the tire pressure to 37psi on all four tires which is above the recommended tire pressure of 33psi front tires, 32psi rear tires (I checked the tire pressure in the morning) my car felt stiffer and very uncomfortable driving afterwards. Moreover, the front left tire ripped on the side after hitting a pothole while driving between 25-30mph on local streets (3/30/2018). This is when I had to buy two brand new tires yokohama advan sport A/S XL for $174.88 each that replaced the front two damaged tires. Recently (8/24/2018. 22442 miles) the front right wheel bent after hitting a pothole while driving between 50-55mph on the highway.

When decelerating while merging onto a highway at approximately 30mph, the car suddenly suddenly became difficult to control. All at once, the car's control and steering could not be easily maneuvered and electric power system (eps) indicator light flashed. There was no warning nor indication that the steering was compromised. I managed to regain control of the car while allowing it to coast. The steering will was stiff and large amounts of turning did not not control the car accurately. I coasted to a stop in a nearby parking lot and put the car in park and turned off the ignition. When the car was restarted, the eps light was not present and the steering control was reestablished. Thinking this was possible due to a glitch, I continued driving for about two miles when the system once again went out and the eps light signaled at the same time. I was not able to move the car off of the highway, but was able to stop at a traffic light to put the car in park and turn it off to reset the system. I was able to then drive the car home. The next morning, while driving to the car dealership, the steering became uncontrollable and a basic turn could not be made when the car was at a low speed. I explained that the car could not be safely operated due to this issue. The dealership called hours later to notify me that they were ordering a new power steering rack. When I inquired as to what the issue was I was informed that the code simply recommended the system to be reset, but "they did not feel safe" allowing me to drive the car without replacing the system. My car has approximately 16,000 miles on it and I have only had the car for one year. It was purchased from the dealership with 5,000 miles on it as the manager had been driving the car for approx. 7 months. The car had the 15,000 mile service completed just last month in addition to an oil change.

While driving my new car on a public road during a right turn into another public road, my power steering failed almost causing a head on collision with on coming traffic. The dealership later informed me that the failure was due to rodent damage to my power steering harness.

After it rained, was driving on highway when suddenly series of errors/problem messages came up on my dashboard. Incl, emissions controls system problem, tire pressure sys prob, avoidance collision sys prob, collision mitigation sys prob, power steering sys prob, etc. Made calls immediately to Honda contacts and got off the freeway. It happened as the maintenance dept's at Honda were closing for the weekend. Except for the messages the car seemed to be driving okay. Still drove slowly to get groceries so I would not have to go back out. As I started the car again, the power steering failed to work; I could not turn the wheel. Triple a thought the problem was due to wetness getting into the computer system. When I started the car with him present, power steering started working again. So, I drove it home again very slowly. Next morning I started the car to see if I would still get the failure messages. They are still there. Took video of messages and will attempt to screen capture some of the messages.
