While on a trip driving on an interstate at 72 mph, in busy traffic, with cruise control on, the engine stalled. I rolled to a stop on the shoulder, and the car didn't restart. Engine lights came on, but all electronics (radio, computer screens) were working. Honda towed (under warranty) to their nearest dealership. After checking out the car, and telling me it restarted and displayed no diagnostic codes, I was sent on my way. I was told it was safe to drive as there was no problem. Still on a trip, and about 500 miles later, I was again on the interstate passing a group of semi's on about a 5% grade, with cars in front of and behind me, when the engine stalled again. This time was much scarier as I was in the passing lane, and the right shoulder was blocked by a long string of semi's. it was dangerous trying to get to the right shoulder as there were cars in front of and behind me also. I was traveling at 78 mph with cruise control on when this happened. The car restarted this time, and with it being a weekend and the service department closed, I continued home the final 550 miles (in the right lane) without incident. This was the 3rd time the engine has stalled. The first was when I was in heavy traffic on the interstate, in stop and go traffic. The temperature was 109, and at the time (car had about 10,000 miles on it) I attributed it to the temperature even though the car didn't overheat. It restarted immediately this car is the 6 speed (manual), 6 cylinder, coupe model.

At 20,000 miles on vehicle Bridgestone oem tires became unsafe as steel belts were warped, and unsafe to drive? Bridgestone when contacted stated their policy is no warranty on tires unless tread is down to 4/32 inch. Tires still had 8/32 in tread left. These tires are a hazard waiting to happen. Honda would not address the issue.

My husband was driving, I was in the passenger seat on a clear day, full visibility, there was a car several car lengths ahead of us turning right. It cleared the way without us needing to break. We were traveling about 40 mph at around 2pm. Our vehicle thought there was still a hazard in the road. We have a sensing package in the vehicle, which caused our car to come to a full and complete stop, engaging the seat belts as well. We have full video evidence of the incident from a third party dash cam. We were almost hit from behind. We took the vehicle to the dealership thinking there was something wrong with it, it was returned, saying that the car worked as intended. Having been in the vehicle at the time, and I disagree, and am now extremely afraid to drive my car. While I have no pictures, I have full video of the incident, and will gladly provide it upon request.

"takata recall" letter received from Honda automobile division, torrance, ca. In reference to battery sensor case mounted on top the 12V battery, could cause electric shot and a fire. I have never been happy with my Honda because of the road noise. Taken the car in several times and was finally advised it was a defect and could not be fixed. I paid cash and will never buy a Honda again. I wish I could return it. I cannot hear anyone in the back seat while driving

My sunroof glass exploded/shattered while driving on the highway. Nothing hit it; it just shattered. I assume it's due to the heat.

Bluetooth defect. Since new purchase in 2016 vehicle bluetooth is not compatible for I phone 7 making the hands free function un usable and a very bad distraction when driving. The dealer reaction to acknowledged problem was "nothing we can do till Honda updates tech knowledge. For what ever reason Honda has not updated system to be compatible with newer phone/S. I fear do to Honda slow or no response to issue a tragedy for someone somewhere will be inevitable, and it is a situation that Honda or NHTSA should be able to be avoided with a simple update on the Accord, and from what I read, other models. If Honda won't make this right, hopefully the NHTSA can force them to fix this potential hazardous condition.

The battery has been replaced twice by the dealership. We are not leaving anything on. Could it be the alternator?

When driving my daughter's car, I pulled into a parking spot and I hit the push button stop to turn off the vehicle. As I began to exit the car, it started to roll. Fortunately, I was able to repostion my self to place my foot on the brake to prevent any damage or injury. I realize that I need to place the car in park prior to turning off the engine. However, this push button technology presents a sigificant hazard that should have a better safety feature. How about requiring that the emergency break be automatically engaged if the car is turned off while the car is in gear? a feature like this could prevent needless injuries and damage. Any vehicle with this push button start/stop technology without adequate safety featutes should be recalled and consumers should be immediately warned!

My tire pressure light comes on constantly. Have taken to Honda several times. Every time they think they fix it. It comes back on. It is really annoying and clearly not working. I should not have to keep going to Honda for a problem they can not fix. Usually takes 50 to 100 miles after taking it in to Honda for light to come back on [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

Honda quality problems. We bought a 2016 Honda Accord in January. After few months the car started to have problems. The car loses acceleration all of a sudden and comes to a low speed (0-5 mph) within seconds. Every time this happened I was driving on the freeway. I took to the dealer many times. First time - the dealer said that he couldn't find anything wrong with the car second time - as per Honda tech, they diagnosed that the chip in the computer is the problem. So they said that the software in the computer needed upgrade (strange.. it is a brand new car. And why is this happening to only one car. It should have been the case with other cars produced at the same time). Third time - as per Honda tech, they replaced the acceleration kit as they thought that is the problem. Fourth time - now they think the wiring is the problem and replaced that. Every time, I drove that car trusting them, I risked my life. I avoided accident 8 times on freeway from being rear ended. I drove into the central ditch on the freeway and injured my shoulder. I am on medication for the past 1+ month. I am worried that I drive this car and am going to die.

The rear window is distorted when you look through it. It doesn't matter if it's sunny or raining out it looks all wavy. It also doesn't seem to matter whether the window is tinted or not. I think this is a safety hazard and you cannot see other vehicles clearly while looking through your rearview mirror. I have seen many other complaints so I think this is something hundred needs to address immediately before the accident occurs if it hasn't already.

Tmps notified me that my tire pressure was low. I had tire plugged and I thought repaired. There is no manual way to reset the tmps system. One must drive at speeds 30 to 60 mph at least 30 minutes for the system to recalibrate. I only was driving short distances for not I'm long amount of time so I was unaware that there actually still was a problem with my tire and was driving around with extremely low tire pressure. If I had a manual reset button I would be aware right away. I believe this is a safety hazard any manual reset button should be put on the vehicle.
