My car braking system and all the safety systems stopped functioning on my car while I was on the highway (garden state parkway South) this morning, 3/15/2019. My brakes did not work to slow the car down at all. When it initially started to show the error messages I tried to use the brakes and it felt like my car accelerated. I luckily was able to allow my car to slow down naturally and get off at a rest stop (monmouth rest area, and force pull the emergency brake to a stop and put my car in park. It was really a scary situation on a very busy highway to have your brakes not work at all. I was advised it could be a lie battery indicator of the electronic system that is all connected to even the brakes. It is highly dangerous that an electrical glitch or malfunction can completely disable my braking system and all other safety features.
On 2/28/19 @5:15 pm got in my car started it up and when I did everything in the video was happening so I immediately went to butler Honda in milledgeville ga where they checked it out and stated that it was camera's malfunctioning and that they would order a new camera. On Friday which was 3/1/19. And they will give me a call on Monday.. and that my car was safe to drive I had nothing to worry about. I just pray and hope
My Honda Accord 2017 4 cyn all of dash board lights lit up, the steering wheel partially locked while I was driving going 55 mph. I pulled over and couldn't cut the car off with my start button. After about 5 minutes I was able to finally cut it cut off. Then it would not start at all. Then after another 5 minutes it started and I went straight to the car dealership January 2019. About seven months earlier, my car would start at all. I went to the dealership and they couldn't find anything wrong. They told me only thing it might be was the battery, I bought a battery and my car was only 11 months old. Recently, February 2019, now my battery is 7 months old, my car wouldn't start again. They can't find anything wrong with my car, but I am having issues. There have been times when I start my car and the dash lights do not come on and I hold the button on the dash and the system reboot and the dash light come on. My car is at the dealership and now it is starting, but the said everything is registering that nothing is wrong. I have an huge issue because I can't be strained in this cold winter weather and my car not starting. This is unsafe because I was in motion less than a month ago on the highway going 55 mph and my car froze in motion. Cjb February 2019
The car tempts to shake and when put on drive the car won't move forward passing 20 mph. When the car os placed on reverse the car won't go back and even though I press the accelerator it struggles to go back. This has been doing it for three times already for the past 2 months. I bought this car on June 2017. This car started failing within a month.
For three mornings in a row, upon starting the vehicle all the malfunction indicators for the vehicle assist systems became illuminated. On the two previous days, after driving for a short distance and restarting the vehicle, the malfunction indicators stopped illuminating. However, after several restart attempts this morning, the malfunction indicators remained illuminated.

After it rained, was driving on highway when suddenly series of errors/problem messages came up on my dashboard. Incl, emissions controls system problem, tire pressure sys prob, avoidance collision sys prob, collision mitigation sys prob, power steering sys prob, etc. Made calls immediately to Honda contacts and got off the freeway. It happened as the maintenance dept's at Honda were closing for the weekend. Except for the messages the car seemed to be driving okay. Still drove slowly to get groceries so I would not have to go back out. As I started the car again, the power steering failed to work; I could not turn the wheel. Triple a thought the problem was due to wetness getting into the computer system. When I started the car with him present, power steering started working again. So, I drove it home again very slowly. Next morning I started the car to see if I would still get the failure messages. They are still there. Took video of messages and will attempt to screen capture some of the messages.
