I was driving on the highway in my new 2019 Honda Accord which is just at its 3768 miles, and the adaptive cruise control system, collusion mitigation braking system and road departure system failed. It showed a message to take it to the dealer. Upon restarting the problem seems to be solved. I got the car couple of months ago, so I have their May 2019 software update which supposedly would fix this problem with 10th gen Accord, but it didn't. the dealers and Honda corporate keep responding that Honda doesn't have a fix for this problem yet, which is going on for over a year now for many owners, which can easily be found by a google search. Please help us.

With only less than 800 miles on the car, my 2019 Honda Accord vsa modulator (which was diagnosed by the dealership) failed. I felt the car begin to bog on the highway right before we were on the exit. Then, the gas pedal stopped working properly and the car lost speed. I would press hard on the gas pedal and the car would take about 3 seconds before it started to move forward, jerking in the direction I intended it to go. After struggling a little while, I luckily pulled over and called a tow truck to send my car to the dealership. I felt that I was very lucky to be able to safely pull over. 1st, it happened during an early Sunday morning with heavy rain, so there was not much traffic. 2nd, the event occurred right before we were going to exit the highway with only a few hundreds of feet to go. Also, it's in my hometown and I know the road very well. Otherwise, an uncontrollable car could cause very serious accident. If we were to crash, the event would likely be attributed to driver fault - since it is such a new car - rather than a crucial car part failing, which could cause death to many others who buy new Honda Accord 2019S. Therefore, I believe that this issue should not be taken lightly and should be further investigated.

While I was driving in a road with speed limit of 45, somehow, the system was showing the speed limit as 90 mph. It happened only once.
