problem #8

Accord

  • 2,158 miles
The traffic sign recognition doesn't always display the correct speed. It has displayed 100mph in a 65 on I-40 going from North little rock, ar. West. I do have a pic of it. Different areas it will either display the incorrect speed or not display it at all. My Honda dealer checked it out, stated it was working correctly. It does at time, at times it doesn't. I have talked with Honda, they stated there are various factors that can interfere with the camera reading the signs. This happens on city streets, access roads & the interstate. It's intermittent.

The brakes are very touchy. Feels like rear brake bias is very strong. Braking smoothly is impossible. Dangerous on slick roads. When I took it to the dealer, the tech drove the car and said brakes were normal. We drove another Accord and it also had touchy brakes. I have never drove a car with brakes this touchy. I had about 200 miles at the time. I now have 7000 miles and they have not gotten any better.

problem #6

Accord

  • 3,000 miles
Whenever I put the car in gear and start driving forward a liability notice comes up on the large display screen asking me to read it and push ok - signifying that I read the message and certifying that I will be a safe driver (while driving). This is a serious safety distraction. I asked my Honda dealer to remove it and they said they could not as it provided liability protection for Honda. This "legal notice" causes distracted driving.

Serious crash control problem. I was driving on the interstate freeway in heavy traffic and a car cut in front of me. As I was trying to avoid an accident a large "brake" image appeared on my speedometer display distracting my eyes away from the road. The "safety feature" almost caused me to have a crash. I asked the dealership to disable the collision prevention system but they said they could not. This "safety technology" almost caused me to be in a serious accident by distracting me from the road.

Soy wire harnesses should be banned and recalls instituted to remedy the problem by either (a) replacing the harnesses with standard synthetic non-edible polymers as appropriate to the specific application, or (B) providing coatings that provably prevent rodents from consuming the insulation over the lifespan of the vehicle

Accord

TPMS low tire pressure warning comes on about every 2 days. Each time every tire is the exact same pressure and not low. TPMS is recalibrated, 2 days later it comes on again. Light comes on while driving. System seems too sensitive.

I purchased a 2018 Honda Accord touring in October 2017 and since that time my low tire pressure light has come on around 8 times. It comes on while I'm driving and usally when I'm taking a trip but not alwasys; sometimes it is city driving. Each time I'm told to bring my car in for service. After several days it comes on again. I'm currently working with Honda coporation trying to get it resolved.

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.
