Upon completion of the driving the car, I will put the car into the garage. After 10-20 minutes has passed, I walk out to the garage and the whole garage smells like unburnt fuel. On occasion if the time between drives is short, the entire inside of the car will also smell like fuel. I have taken the car to the dealer 4 times so far, with no luck helping. Today will be the 5th time in the first 20000 miles. I put it as last week because that is what made me send it back to dealer yet again, but this has been on going for months.

Two separate issues: 1) with only 2,400 miles on the Accord, on October 7, 2018 it suddenly lost power 2 or 3 times over a 60-mile stretch of the busy 405 freeway, each time slowing from 65 mph to approximately 30 mph or less despite maintaining even pressure on the accelerator. The car did not respond to pressure on the gas pedal. No cruise control was used at any time. The sudden deceleration could have caused a serious accident. 2) on November 30, 2018, I attempted to resume motion after stopping for a red light. The Accord's gas pedal failed to respond for approximately 5 to 6 seconds, then suddenly lurched forward. This also could have caused a serious accident.

I had an event with my turbo hose being loose, dealer tech said must have been loose coming from the factory. Here is the thread. My situation is illustrated with my handle, "mikiwolf". basically, lost power in my vehicle after 1850 miles and had it towed to dealership. At first they said it was bad fuel and quoted me $800 to clean the fuel tank. Tech kept using "ethanol" and "water" interchangeably which confused me. A day later I went to the dealership and the tech said it was bad gas with just 5% ethanol, fuel was too rich creating the problem for me. Even after I expressed that ethanol is simply an additive, it meant little to this 20-something kid. Long story short, after I asked him to test for water, he wound up doing a visual inspection and found the turbo inlet pipe was loose, tightened it, and did a test drive - problem fixed. The tech went on to say that his internal forum shows this situation happening more and more with Accord. He thinks they are coming from the factory too loose and going forward he knows what to look for now. The dealership did the right thing to work with me and reconcile their findings with me. Problem is, not everyone is as technical as I am and overall Honda seems to have a build issue to resolve and broadly investigate.

Similar to nhtsb complaint id# 11111897, vehicle lost power while in motion on 7/21/208 on highway in congestion while raining. It has since been towed to Honda dealership where currently undergoing repair work. I was told fuel injectors needed replacement under warranty. I hope this solves the issue and does not happen again as I was put in a potentially dangerous situation that afternoon.

Problem with fuel filler lid actuator assembly freezes causes inability to push in and open the fuel door. Dealer contends this is a known issue but no eta on repair. I have been unable to locate other complaints similar to this online and Honda has not responded directly to a ticket opened on their customer service site.

The car stutters or stammers when you press the accelerator/gas pedal at times, it does not do it at all times. It is dangerous. It was stationary at a stop light, or pullling off from a stopped position.
