On at least 3 occasions while driving on a city street the the automatic brake system kicks on and will violently stop the car in the middle of the road. Each time there has been no vehicle in front of me or even near me that would cause this to occur. Additionally, each time I was not going any faster than 45-50 mile per hour. The last time this happened the car behind me nearly rear-ended me but avoided an accident by quickly shifting over to the next lane. This action of course caused a potential road rage exchange because the driver had no idea my car had malfunctioned.

Rear breaks wear out only after 14,000 miles. Purchased car brand new and rear breaks did not last more than 14,000 miles. I am very gentle driver and expect to rear breaks to last at least 24,000 or more.

While driving down the highway my car just brakes. It doesn't come to a complete stop but it is dangerous. If I don't put on my turn signal before I start to change lanes it will brake. It doesn't do it all the time but it has started doing it more frequently.

When I slow down my hybrid 2018 Honda Accord using the regenerative braking pedals I realized the car slows down enough that the following needs to be warned by brake lights coming on. The current design of the car the brake lights don't come on with regenerative braking and this can cause rear end collision.

The rear brakes are worn too fast and rotors are already damaged at 19500 miles.

This car almost killed me on highway while driving 70 miles/H it decided to tap breaks by itself(slow down) the gas pedal would not respond it was not any car in front of me.I took it to a dealer they restarted the system said everything it's fine now but did not fixed the problem the same day I had the same issue with it.I don't feel safe driving in it.

- S Burlington, VT, USA

I was driving on express way on 7/5/19 early morning. The car shake and slow down all of the sudden. I would be killed if there's a car behine me. I pulled to the curb, and try to restart the car and go, but it keeps shakung in the beginning. So I called Honda for tow truck, that a leased car. But later I tried again, it seems the car could go, so I drove home. Check engine light was on for few days, and the transmission couldn't shift smoothly since then. Looks like a lemon. Only 9000 miles on the car. I have more pictures about the problem but the system won't allow me to upload more than 5

On January 4th while traveling home my Accord was set in cruise control and out of the blue hit the brakes on it's own with no one around me. I brushed it off but about 20 miles or so down the road it did it again except thus te was next to a diesel and not only did brake on its on it also responded as if I was out my lane and began to to turn my car into the diesel I was able to keep the car from crashing and the the cruise control went out and I began to get a message the there was an issue with the braking mechanism. I was worried about driving the remainder of of my trip but I was an hour and half away from home so traveled on home check my brakes constantly. This experience has my wife and I rattled. I took my car in on the 6th to topeka Honda and explained what happened and that the car tried to kill me and my wife by trying to run us into a diesel truck and how it was braking on its own and the took and looked at it. The dealership called me back a stated"there was some gunk on your censor and that cause this to happen and they cleaned it off it was fine" but if the censor is on the front off the csr and gunk makes it not work surely this will happen again. I no longer feel safe nor will I allow my wife to operate this vehicle.

Driving at the highway, car suddenly slow down from 70mph to 40-50mph, there were any car in front of me! I have nothing on my windshield! there weren't any stop or traffic sign! so Honda stop saying I am driving recklessly! for few second I regained control of gas, I have to speed up my car so I don't get rear end, then everything happen again, car decided to tap brake by itself. This happen multiple time during the highway driving. Screen pop up said collision mitigation break system error. Please contact Honda dealership. After contact dealership for repair. Was told that they could not determined the problem since the error did not show up during their in house testing. And yes, error code disappeared after car restarted. But problem consists after long distance drive. I don't know I should drive this car or I have pray you god that one day I don't get rear end because Honda Accord decides to brake itself!

Here is a description of the safety issues this car continues to have that the manufacturer and two dealers will not fix under the manufacturer's warrantee because they claim they can not duplicate and there are no stored error codes. This car has a lane departure mitigation (ldm) system that has falsely activated many times while the car is centered on the driving lane. The ldm activates by providing a warning on the dashboard and by moving the steering wheel quickly to the left and to the right which distracts the driver (a safety issue) and once caused me to almost steer the car into a semi on my right by compensating for the left steering wheel movement. This car also has a lane keep assist system (lkas) which repeatedly has steered the car off the road. Both these issues have been recorded and provided to ahm and both dealers. These issues happen randomly on city streets and highways. Additionally, this car has issues with randomly displaying an incorrect speed limit on the dashboard (100 mph in a 60 mph zone), falsely warning "steering is required" on the dashboard, a "shift to park" warning while repositioning the car and the engine is on, and the brake assist/anti-collision falsely activating when nothing is directly in the path of the car. All of these happen while the car is operating on city streets and highways.

When driving down the highway and higher mph (50+) roads, generally but not always with the cruse control on, the brakes suddenly apply themselves very hard causing the car to become a sitting target for cars coming from behind. This has happened a multitude of times and when it was taken to the dealer with a complaint about it they kept the car but returned it saying they couldn't find anything to repair.

- Bakersfield, CA, USA

There was no problems indicated with the stopping ability of the car when all of a sudden a loud grinding noise was heard when the brakes were applied. The car was immediately taken to the dealer only 2 miles away and when it was inspected I was told both passenger side brakes were down to metal with no pads left. The dealer said something had failed causing the condition which was requiring more parts to be replaced. If we were farther from the dealer ( barber Honda bakersfield) this could have resulted in complete brake failure is my understanding.

- Bakersfield, CA, USA

I was accelerating from a stop at a red light and once I hit about 10-15 mph, the collision mitigation system came on and slammed the car to a complete stop for no apparent reason. I have a dash camera video which shows the incident. This was on a clear, sunny day on a non-busy city street (overpass).

- Frisco, TX, USA

The vehicle had a sudden loss of function in: 1. road departure mitigation 2. collision mitigation 3. adaptive cruise control 4. braking system the vehicle was in motion at speed of 10-40mph, with air temperature of 28-32 degrees and snowy conditions. Honda has repeatedly refused to investigate numerous, potentially sw/hw - related issues that have been manifesting themselves in other parts of the vehicle. What happened today was a new set of symptoms, but with much higher severity and no obvious precedent. I have already had to disable the lane departure and the collision avoidance systems on this vehicle due to their erratic behavior. However, in this case the messages that have come up (will attache photos) demanded that the vehicle be taken to the dealer and the errors and message did not go away upon multiple restarts of the vehicle. Upon arrival to the dealer, it was indicated to me that Honda is aware of some of the other issues I've been experiencing with the vehicle and still (months hence) does not have a fix, and that Honda has, essentially, been resorting to testing their vehicle on the customers, instead of more rigorous pre-release testing, instead choosing to use the dealers as a quasi-test/R&D department. The multiple safety system failure I experienced today is a pretty clear indication of that. I have filed another complaint with nthsa related to the other issues and would urge you to initiate a recall on all of the Honda Accord (and possibly Odyssey and Pilot as they share some of the sub-systems) for the 2018, 2019 and the coming 2020 models.

Collision mitigation system failed, brake light is on, adaptive cruise control system warning is

- Blaine, MN, USA

Rear brake pads are wearing quicker than the front, I barley have any life in the rear pads. (wearing out twice as fast as they normally should) just like what happened to the 2008-2010 Accord. Honda looked at the issue and completely ignored it, they told me its dangerous if I dont change them and they didnt say anything about them wearing out quick.

- Orange, CT, USA

The brake system alert is flashing on the dashboard while vehicle in motion and there is no break issue. It appears to be a flawed collision mitigation brake system sensor as this keeps flashing across the dash in big bold letters and wont go off. I just bought this vehicle brand new 5 months ago. When turning car off and back on the message is still there and wont go away.
