Driving on I95 near lumberton nc at 78mph in econ mode with cruise on, went to pass vehicle after cruise slowed me down, stepped on gas and response felt different, realized I was slowing down while stepping on the gas. Noticed cel light and continued to slow down. I thought car was drifting but the rpms still showed engine on. Got to safety apron and realized car was in limp mode. Managed to get to exit ramp. Sitting on ramp noticed that the engine, when you tapped the gas pedal, was rough but seemed to idle ok. Towed to nearby dealer. They said it had a P0300 history code but no current code. They cleared it, test drove and gave it back to me. Continued by trip to Virginia with no problems. Car had 7251 miles. No problems before this. Previous night (31st) we gassed up and drove an hour+ to florence in rain. Stayed the night and started next day. We had driven another hour+ when this happened. It was in the 30's that day in SC but not raining.

This vehicle when driving at normal speeds tends to make a high accelerating notices, it makes a person feel as if some other vehicle was passing on the left side at a very high speed. The first time I heard this noise, I moved to the right side of the road, thinking that a speeding driver was passing me. Since then, the vehicle continues to make this accelerating noise, six to seven times on a average of a thirty mile trip. I feet that this is not normal for a vehicle that is less than a year old. The vehicle makes this noise when in motion from 20-50 miles per hour, and might also make it at higher speeds. It never makes it while sitting in place idling.

2020 Accord 2.0T sport 10,600 miles I was traveling across the state with periods of light and heavy rain. About halfway into my ~280 mile trip I stopped for a red light. When accelerating from the light, my car lost power and the accelerator did not work. I coasted to the side of the road and noticed the check engine light blinking, with no other warning messages. I shut the car off and restarted to find no engine light or warning. I was in the middle of nowhere late in the evening so I continued to the destination. With approximately 20 miles to go, I attempted to accelerate around a slower moving vehicle and was met with previous problems, as well as many warning messages. Turning off and restarting the car enabled me to drive again, but the warning messages remain. Both times this occurred it was raining. Both times I lost power and could not accelerate to move to a safe location.

The car rattles on the rear where the exhaust end when I turn it off. It used to not do that rattling before. The car vibrates when the car is coming to a stop and then continues when idling. It feels like I am sitting at a vibrating chair. The engine works very rough when idling.

From Oct 10 to Oct 14, I parked my car at off airport parking lot for 5days. When I came back, my car didn't start. My car was towed to the closest Honda dealership. I got the inspection report from the dealership stating that the reason why my car didn't start is due to bad gas. I went to the gas station, where I pumped my gas last time before I flew out of atl, to check with them. They provided me a copy of the system status report of 10/9/20 showing that there were no issues. So I went back to the dealership and they told me they have confirmed that #3 cylinder is full of water; they said they could get a fuel sample once I authorized them to work on the fuel tank removal and cleaning. Once they proceeded, they stated they focused on cleaning the spark plugs and performing an oil change which led them to find out there is internal damage to the engine. So they told me they would stop until my insurance company checks the car. They said they took multiple fuel samples and did not see water but there was water filled in the engine cylinders. They have asked me if the car was in a flood, but there was no massive rain or storm which flooded the area. They emphasized that it is not a warrantable repair as it is not a problem caused by the manufacturer, which sounded questioning. The technician told me if there is nothing wrong with the oil and fuel tank, then the only way that water can get into the engine is manually pouring lots of water through air intake, which also sounds ridiculous as I have never touched it nor there was no trace of someone trying to open my hood from inside and putting water. After I explained to them, they said they still cannot provide an answer as to why there is water, but it cannot be warrantable repair. If they do not know the clear cause of the issues, how can they strongly confirm it is not due to manufacturer issues?

The contact called southeastern Honda (3125 us-1, palm bay, fl 32905 (321) 270-8341) and was informed that the sensor may have gotten wet causing the vehicle to switch to limp mode. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 300.
