The low beam lights abruptly stopped working without warning. The high beams, fog lights and interior lights work fine but I had to use my bright lights to get home which visually impaired oncoming traffic & myself because they flashed me with their bright lights. I called the dealership, and they said what happened was highly unusual and that led lights don't go out. Following this my system lights started to come on for the tire pressure and the brakes. They are still on and my tires work fine and brakes are working fine.

My car was purchased new in December 2018. It now has 119,231 miles on it. My problem is that my headlight warning lamps go on the minute I start my car, because moisture has somehow gotten into both headlight assemblies, which causes my headlights to stop working intermittently. I took my car to Keeler Honda in Latham New York to get it fixed, and they gave me a quote to replace two headlights in the amount of $3174.23. My car has never been hit nor has it ever been in an accident. And now I need to replace two headlights and I can-€™t believe how much money it-€™s going to cost me. I believe I have defective headlights, and although my car may be out of warranty, I think this is a design issue, and the cost to replace two headlights is unreasonable. I have attached pictures of the right and left front headlights, a picture of my dashboard warning light that comes on when I start my car, and a copy of the estimate I received from Keeler Honda in Latham New York for $3174.23. Just for the headlights alone, the cost is $2624.04. Who has that kind of money to replace 2 headlights" I wonder if I-€™m the only one with this issue. This is a serious SAFETY HAZARD when I-€™m on the road and my headlights turn off at night. What can I do" Thank you, Mark Febbie

Evening before problem started it was a heavy rain in nyc. Morning I started the car and was immediately received 4 messages: "lkas: Lane keeping assist system problem. See your dealer.". "road departure mitigation system problem. See your dealer.", "blind spot information system problem. See your dealer.", "auto high beam problem. Manual controls available. See your dealer.". turn signals did not work. Hazard lights did not work. Trunk release did not work. Backup camera did not work. Moved to dealer (25 minutes away). But did not start the service. After turning off and start the car again all displayed failures were gone. Waiting for the next heavy rain.

The headlights are overly-bright. In the low-beam position the headlights are a painful even to glance at. When the car goes over a bump the headlights make an even more bright flash. With so many cars like this on the roads the driving conditions are becoming dangerous as the blinding headlights create both discomfort and disability glare as well as a substantial distraction. Those blinding led headlights should be recalled as soon as possible.

For a while now, im noticing that the auto high beams on my 2018 Honda Accord ex-L 2.0T car isnt working. I've tried reseting the display audio unit, I've tried disabling/re-enabling auto high beam feature by pulling the high beam stick on the steering column - none of this has fixed the issue. Basic obd2 (via bluetooth and android app) do no indicate any fault codes. Will be taking this into the dealership to have it checked out.

Started the car and was immediately received 4 messages: "lkas: Lane keeping assist system problem. See your dealer.". "road departure mitigation system problem. See your dealer.", "blind spot information system problem. See your dealer.", "auto high_beam problem. Manual controls available. See your dealer.". turn signals did not work. Hazard lights did not work. Trunk release did not work. Backup camera did not work. Came back after 30 minutes or so and all displayed failures were gone and the trunk opened. My daughter said the brake lights were functioning when I depressed the brake and even though the backup camera did not turn on the back up sensors appeared to be operating.

Hours later tried to enter car and noted the following: Trunk will not open, doors except for driver will not open, turn signals do not work, no high beams, all mitigations systems offline, brake system failure, back up camera doesn't work. Thank goodness experienced driver could get it home and/or I was not far from home with vehicle. Said car is less than a year old and has 10K mileage.

After taking delivery of my Accord on Dec 7, 2018 I noticed that the interior lights weren't on even though the driver door was open. I thought someone had just turned the switch off. After arriving home I made sure the door switch was in the "door" position and the rear light switch was in the middle. The overhead light, rear lights still would not come on after opening the door. There was also no vanity mirror or trunk lights. A few days later the overhead lights began coming on by themselves and fade out after 15 seconds. It did it while the doors were open or closed and sometimes while starting the car. I took it to the dealership on Dec 13 and the technician discovered that the lights were on some kind of timer. Really? it applied power to the lights at a set interval. For a few minutes after the interval the lights worked perfectly, then shut off and would not work again until the next interval. The dealership ordered a new lighting module. The module was installed on Dec 20 and the lights did the same thing. The problem is not the battery, wiring, fuses, bulbs, or light module. No one knows what's controlling the timing. The lights shouldn't be on any timer. The engineers at american Honda were stumped. I now have to bring it back next week so the technicians at the dealership can talk with the engineers in Japan that designed the car. On the surface this seems like a simple problem but in actuality it's incredibly complex. Like having to replace the entire electrical system or computer. There are 2 more times to fix this issue before it can be called a lemon. Other than the odd lighting problem my car has performed perfectly.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the backup and brake sensor alerts failed to function and the headlights failed to illuminate brightly while driving at night. The vehicle was taken to moss bros Honda (located at 27990 eucalyptus ave, moreno valley, ca 92555, (951) 486-9366) where it was diagnosed that the rearview mirror and bumper sensors failed and needed sensors. The dealer did not diagnose the headlight failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact received a notice for NHTSA campaign number: 18V629000 (back over prevention, visibility). The manufacturer was notified of the failures and did not assist. The approximate failure mileage was 3,488.
