Both low beam headlights burn out at the "same time". This has happened twice in 1 year. I have not had any inspections done yet. If this happens at night or in a tunnel it could be life threatening. Purchased used from a friend who has taken care of the vehicle. I have not checked with him to see if he ever had it happen due to he is no longer living here. First time I just replaced both bulbs and they worked fine. Now about 8 months later same problem. No moisture visible. High beams work but only when switch is in automatic mode. I will replace again, nothing else I can do at the moment.

Driver's side front LED lights went out. I do not see any reason for this, it just stopped working. I am worried this may be a safety issue as these LED lights are now permanently off.

Led daytime running lights at the underside of the headlight have gone out. This is a safety hazard as many other cars the drls turn off before the turn signal is indicated. Can give other drivers false indication of turning possibly.

Front right drl, part of the running light burned out, to replace the running light you must replace the entire headlight assembly which can be up to $1500 or more. Most people that purchase a Honda Accord cannot afford to repair something that burns out just like any other light for $1500. This is unacceptable, Honda motor co. Needs to recall and repair this mistake for free. This is ridiculous to have to replace the entire headlight assembly.

Daytime running lights led both partially burnt and only half of the led light come on. This happen this weekend 7/24/2020 and 7/25/2020. Per service bulletin 19-042 dated 4/16/2019 from Honda on NHTSA website, this is a common problem with 2016 Honda Accord. However the recall does not apply my 2016 model per VIN. I need help as dealer cannot assist. There's lots of information online about this recall. Totally reflects the situation we are having and again even the same year and model as my vehicle but why are some cars excluded? it just does not seem right. This is an expensive repair. Any help is appreciated.
