This is a complaint for a unique occurrence of this problem on this date. In some instances, it seems that the ventilation system is potentially pulling noxious fumes in from the engine bay and in others, there seems to be an issue with moisture retention when ac is run. The vehicle seems to force foul smelling air in to the cab. Honda has failed to properly troubleshoot the issue (I.e. retain the vehicle for more than a few hours and try to understand if there is an issue with the ventilation system or something else).

The infotainment unit in the 2018 Honda Accord early on exhibited a number of issues, one of them being, poor connectivity via bluetooth. In this instance, the vehicle was showing the battery status of the connected device and claimed that there is one connected, but, at the same time, was indicated that no device is connected. See the attached picture.

A few months after buying the 2018 Accord, Honda had to put a software update, which they claimed was going to address and issue with the back-up camera (which always seemed to work fine, at least on my car). Shortly after the update, the infotainment unit had started to randomly (and rather frequently) reset itself every few day. Honda (after some trips to the dealer and several attempts to reach out to the Honda of America hq) had failed to acknowledge the issue and, eventually, begrudgingly had admitted to the problem; however, they had failed to produce a fix for months. My vehicle still does not have a fix applied and keeps having resets. I have spoken with a 2018 Honda Odyssey (which uses the same system), who finally gave up and got rid of the vehicle due to the number of recalls (and, to some extent, very poor handling of the issues by Honda dealer(s) and Honda), but they had to have their unit physically replaced. Supposedly, there now a recall, but you have to take the vehicle to the dealer (surprise, not). As it stands, Honda may have used a piece of hw which has a built-in failure (this could be more insidious than just a sw fix) and is refusing to address it in hundreds of thousands of vehicles. Why can't this be done via a 'simple' sw update the way 21st century car-makers do" or is Honda simply hiding an inevitable failure via sw update" on the noted date, this was yet another reset of the unit. The vehicle now has about 27,500 miles, but has exhibited this behavior for thousands of miles/over a year.

The infotainment unit in the 2018 Honda Accord early on exhibited a number of issues, one of them being, poor connectivity via bluetooth. In this instance, while the device was disconnected intentionally, the infotainment unit failed to retain the device's information and failed to reconnect upon a manually-initiated request from the device later.

The 2018 Accord have a system called "brake hold" which is intended to engage the braking system while a vehicle is stopped at, say, a stop-light. The intent seems to be to allow the driver to have their foot on the gas, instead of the brake pedal. The brake hold system frequently has an issue where it allows the vehicle to creep. This, generally, seems to happen in colder temperatures. Another, pattern of behavior is when the vehicle has been brought to a slow roll, then stopped (using the brake pedal) and as soon as the brake pedal is release, the brake hold system fails to hold the vehicle in the stopped position. After a significant delay, the brake system is engaged, but the vehicles had, at that point, lurched forward several inches, if not over a foot. This indicates (just as with the collision mitigation system delays, discussed in other complaints) that there is a significant issue with the timing of the control system utilized in the brake hold, the sensor(s) or both, where the system fails to detect the conditions in real time and reacts in a delayed manner. Again, as with other issues on the later Honda models, Honda has failed to perform comprehensive troubleshooting of the issue (even after me taking the vehicle to the dealer as indicated by Honda. This is a complaint for a separately occurring instance.

The vehicle's safety system (not sure if it's the camera mounted behind the windshield or something else) will periodically interpret a road speed sign as showing 100mph speed limit. This has happened before and will have happened again (I am filing this complaint after some time has passed). As with a number of other issue with the 2018+ Honda models, Honda's response has been "take it to the dealer" while the dealer's mechanic drives the car for an hour, does not see the issue and then claims that nothing is wrong with the vehicle. A picture is attached.

2 issues that I am having is that when I press the brake pedal the radio goes crazy ( interference). Dealer notified and apparently can not find anything wrong so no fix for it yet. The other issue is with cmbs it failed 2wice in the past 3 days. Conditions of the road were good, ( no snow, no rain) and the traffic was not heavy. Both times the system fails to operate mid cruse and shuts off. The only way to get it to work is by restarting the car but this is not an option driving on a highway.

A loud humming noise comes out of the speaker and I believe I've identified as being the automatic noise canceling system. It's malfunctioning to the point that I have to open a window slightly to get it to turn off. I feel like it's at such a decibel that I'm having hearing loss from it.

- Portland, OR, USA

There is a humming coming from the rear speakers. It seems to be coming from the noise canceling system. There are a few different forums where people are talking about it. My car is a 2018, and there are people with 2020 vehicles complaining the problem still exists with the new vehicles. I have taken it to the dealer a couple of times, but they have no answers. You can check https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-T75510_ds980301?sntemlid=5110927846#msg1127217 for one thread. I have also recorded the sound and put it on https://youtu.be/ss9stc9dfpe also at https://youtu.be/J5P7wudrbie and https://youtu.be/lyuwakpayfq I promise it is not a rick roll.

All lights in my dash came on, brake, engine, steering, collision, acceleration. I took it in to priority Honda and was told it was cracked spark plugs and it was fixed. I paid $260. Six days later same thing. Same dealership looked at it. Said it was fix, sent me on my way, but told me they would replace spark plug cover. Same issue happened again. Now back in the shop for a 4th time. Was told I had bad fuel injectors. Cost $1700, but I would have to pay $200 deductible. Probably is my car was brand new when purchased and I'm under 5yr, 60,000 mile warranty. So why am I paying anything if it is a powertrain failure and I'm under warranty. Please help. These incidents happen as soon as I started my car, and I took it straight to the dealership when it did. The last incident was December 5, 2020. Before that was twice in November but I would have to verify exact date based on when I took it to the dealership. This is the only place I service my car, and the customer service has been subpar. I couldn't even get a complimentary rental unless I paid out of pocket.

Air conditioning system has foul smell. Took car into the dealer but they didn't do anything to resolve it.

In December 2019, my car air conditioner was making an unusal noise when being turned on. I took the car to the dealer and the technician there said that the air condenser was leaking. He added that it would be a >$1000 charge to fix this issue. At that time, because the weather was not too hot, the air conditioner was not a big issue so I did not fix it then. However, in June 2020, the air conditioner was blowing warm air and it was a hot summer so I had to pay >$1000 to fix it by the dealer. I saw the recall for Honda civic model of the same year being claimed for the same issue so I talked to the manufacturer, but they were saying that the recall does not apply to Honda Accord models. However, my brother, who has the same model of the same year, had the same issue so he had to fix the problem as well. I also have seen several similar cases with the air conditioner of the same model manufactured in the same year. I believe, just like the civic models, a thorough investigation needs to be performed about this issue. If you google "Honda Accord air conditioner', it is not difficult to find the issue. I hope my appeal prevents any unfortunate, unexpected and still unfair cost to the vehicle owners. This is an air conditioning problem so in summer this could be a safety issue. Please investigate this issue thoroughly. - owner of 2018 Honda Accord
