Headlights are dangerous. When raining at night I can't even see what lane I'm in. Is especially bad when cars are on other side of road. When I first got the car, I stopped to see if the headlights were even on. They are useless when road is wet and raining. Often I can't even see what lane I'm in. This has been the problem since I got the car in 2018. And I cant see on the left when making a left turn. These lights are dangerous and need to be recalled. I had no problem with my previous 2015 Accord.

Towards the end of 2017, I had my Honda Accord service as a result of the battery defect recall. After such repair, my vehicle stalled on a busy highway back in February 2018. I bought the car new and it had approximately 45,000 miles the Honda dealer stated it was the alternator and charged me to repair it. However, on 4/1/18 the car stalled once again and I the engine would not start. I have researched this issue and it appears the too many 2015 Honda Accord are having the same problem following the battery defect recall. This is a safety risk, since the vehicle loses all power leaving one vulnerable to bing hit by other vehicles when the car stalls. My car panel/ system does not give any warning prior to shutting down all power while the car is on motion. Once the car stalls, one can not turn the engine back on. I truly believe that this has to be investigated before some one is killed as a result that F this defect on the Honda Accord.

Older people have a high end hearing loss. Hence, the driver who has the signal on cannot hear it and it misleads on-coming and following vehicles. It should be changed to a low pitch which people with hearing loss will be able to hear. Yes I know there is a flashing light on the dash but it is not like the one one that vehicle has when you move out of your lane or do not slow down for a stopped vehicle. Those give a flashing light but also a loud sound. The high pitch turn signal sound is not only a safety hazard but it probably violates the disability act. There are many people complaining on the internet. I forgot the signal was on and almost was hit by an on-coming vehicle at an intersection who thought I was going to turn..

Honda Accord electrical system failed-brakes, steering, flasher lights, power, the electrical system failed as I was making a turn onto a very busy street. If this event happened on a busy street with a power failed system, I may have caused an accident to me and other cars due to lack of control.

Headlights on low beam have a sharp top side cutoff that makes seeing the road and signs and objects difficult to see at night. Also when going down hill and if the road rises sharply, you cannot see very far ahead, I almost hit someone crossing a street because of this. Also, the heater/ac controls are needlessly complicated, as are the radio controls. Where one knob could control the on/off and fan speed, this car has three separate small buttons where you must take yours eyes off the road to find. The same applies to changing the temperature; there are two up/down separate buttons, where one simple knob would work. The radio, too has too many needless buttons to push. If texting is dangerous while driving, they have made this car dangerous to change almost any control. There should be the rule that controls be kept as simple as possible. I understand that the Lexus even has a separate mouse you must use to change settings! it has gotten out of control.

When the headlights are turned on, both lens covers show a thick round circle distorting the beam projection.. Honda claims this happens on all the Accord and refuses to do fix the problem under the warranty. They said if they replaced the lights it would just happen again. They said its dust but it looks like the circle is etched, either way the light appears distorted

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. While driving at night at any speed, the headlights appeared to have a black shade that covered half of the lamps on both sides. The contact could not see the road or any object entirely. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the vehicle was functioning as designed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 10,000.
