When you let off the gas pedal and then reapply the car will not respond. You have to keep pressing and releasing the gas pedal til the car respond. It does it when leaving from a stop in traffic and if you are driving down the street.
I drove my car on 95 and for some reason im hitting the accelerate and it was going slower then fast I had to pull over and turn off car and turn it back on.
Driving and vehicle started slowing and jerking and all lights came on...happened again 2-3 days later then again the following week. Took vehicle to Honda and was advised the fuel pump/system had to be replaced. Repairs are done and now I see there was a recall for 2017 Honda Accord with fuel pump problems....Honda is saying because the gin don't populate an open recall it don't apply to my vehicle.

I purchased a used 2017 Honda Accord coupe with a V6 engine in May 2020. It has always slightly hesitated and stalled during all speeds of acceleration. Most notable from a stop, or very slightly trying to accelerate. I found a January 29, 2019 NHTSA campaign number: 19V060000 and a service bulletin or safety recall A19-016 dated February 13, 2019 was issued and on Aug 1, 2020, I took the vehicle to a Honda dealership near me for this complaint because it seemed to be getting worse. I was informed about 6 hours later my necklace chain hanging on the rear view mirror was shorting out the car causing my acceleration problem and charged $340. I had mentioned before and after this diagnosis that a safety recall on the fuel pump was issued to this car and was told the chain on mirror was the problem. I was actually given a piece of my chain back with a slight evenly burn mark on it. I still have this problem and don't have the time or money to go back and forth with the dealership on getting this resolved. My VIN # does not show a recall needed presently, but I currently commute 120 miles a day in this vehicle and pray my problem will not worsen or it stop all together during this time. I could try again with another dealership, but do I need Honda to issue this recall to my VIN first before I can get this safety issue fixed at once? please advise on my concerns and thank you
I received a call from my dealer stating that my car is under recall for a fuel pump issue; however, I can't find any information online about such a recall.
Fuel pump nuzzles at gas stations do not fit and not going all the way in the fuel tank when refueling. Fuel and gases overflow creating a fire hazard.
Rodent's chewed a hole in the evap line coming off the fuel tank. 2552 miles on the car. It is my understanding that the corrugated evap line has a soy based coating. Because this line is built into the fuel tank the whole fuel tank needs to be replaced. Estimated cost is $1552, not covered under the manufacture's warranty. Very worried a similar problem will happen with the replacement part and I'll be looking at multiple replacements. Asking the repair shop to treat the new part with Honda's rodent deterrent tape part # 4019-2317, before reinstalling.
According to my local Honda dealer (hondanation knoxville), and based on my own experience, the 2017 Honda Accord have a known "acceleration lag" problem. Often when accelerating from a stationary position, or even a slow-turn or merge position, there can be a 1 to 3 second delay between pressing the accelerator and actually getting the car to move. This can present a highly serious situation. In effect, the car can stall for a 1 to 3 second period while oncoming traffic closes in on you. Sometimes you can press the accelerator all the way to the floor with no response, only to have the car "lurch" a second or two later. The problem happens most frequently in city driving after the car has warmed up. My local Honda dealer says there is no known fix for this widely reported problem. Logic says that at some point someone will be seriously injured because of this known acceleration lag problem affecting late model Honda.
