all warning lights on

I own a Honda Accord 2018 engine 1.5T . I bought this car brand new from dealership. All of a sudden the car lost power, I was on the freeway with my two boys and could no longer accelerate along with some shaking. Suddenly all lights from head board turned on. I next took in to the dealership where I had purchased the car from. They made diagnostic, and told me that they checked the cylinder head and found water dripping down and that the head gasket need replacement. That’s bullshit, this should be a recall. This car is trash after fully paying off the vehicle it should last me longer than 5 years. How does this all of a sudden happen, the car is no good and would recommend everyone to look somewhere else besides Honda. This is a manufacture problem, and should be taken care of it by them. Very frustrating.

The vehicle was taken to Norm Reeves Honda - West Covina, CA., where it was diagnosed that the spark plugs, cylinder, head gasket and valves needed to be repaired. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 5,127.
