On Sept 25, 2024, my car completely turned off as I was pulling out from a side road to cross a 4 lane road. Fortunately, it was mid-morning and no cars were coming. I was able to coast to the far ride lane and put hazard lights on. A light came on--a gas can with something dripping from it and possibly some other lights. It was extremely scary and happened with no warning whatsoever. It could have caused a fatal accident in another situation. I had never seen this light come on before nor had any problems with the car stalling. GREENSBORO HONDA inspected the car and determined that it was the low pressure fuel pump and that most likely the "O" ring had gotten pinched. They have seen this before in Hondas. It's a common problem and my research revealed many Hondas have been recalled for this very problem, but not my particular car. They determined that the fuel pump had to be replaced at a cost to me of $1,200. I made a claim with American Honda and it was denied because there had not been a recall and because the car was no longer under warranty.

The car is unable to be driven at no more than than 20 miles per hour.. I believe and other mechanic people believe that the problem was a fuel injection problem. Honda autopark Honda in cary, NC charged me $1500 to fix a water pump problem. No issues with temperature inside the car.

The vehicle turn off and on while driving on the highway, is like the engine stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash or injury. I'm aware there's no recall on my vehicle, however, it's a known issue that Honda had voluntarily recall approximately 2.6 million 2017-2020 Honda vehicles in the United States to replace their fuel pumps, for free due to a similar issue. I have experience this issue of the vehicle shutting down then on while driving in the last couple of weeks and it's increasing each day. The accord was bought for my son to use, if he encounter an accident due to this fuel pump issue and he lose his life, someone would have to be held accountable.

At first I thought this was an electrical problem but now it looks like it is the fuel pump. There is a struggle to turn the vehicle on. There are time that I step on the accelerator and it stalls. There are times while driving that it seems that the vehicle is just going to turn off. I am scared that it might turn off while I-??m driving. This can cause me to have an accident. I know there has been a recall to 2018-2020 Honda Accord vehicle but I think there are plenty of 2017 models that are going through the same situation.

Lights came on the dashboard, then call was stalling while driving, and car is hard to stop, issue with the fuel pump for my model car and honda doesn't have my vin listed in the recall in which it should be. The recall is NHTSA Recall# [XXX]. My vehicle is having the same issues as the recall states that honda should cover.

Currently own a 2017 Honda Accord Sport just over 100k miles, regularly maintained and serviced. All of a sudden my vehicle takes longer to start and the most shocking issue is that I was driving to work as normal and when I went to accelerate onto the interstate my vehicle suddenly started jerking and it seemed as though my vehicle was not getting fuel even though I was pressing the accelerator. I had to get off the interstate as I was almost hit by other vehicles merging onto the interstate. It is very frustrating that other trims of Accords are included in the recall except this model. This recall needs to be revised to reflect all models for all owners. I literally almost lost my life due to this.

Vehicle stalled while travelling. I suspect this is a problem of the high pressure fuel pump gathering particulates and not working as proper. There is a similar recall regarding the V6 models of my vehicle, however, the 4 cylinder models were left unaddressed.

On 12-7-2023 I was driving home from work and all of a sudden my car started sputtering and slowing down until it stopped completely in heavy evening traffic. It would not restart so I had it towed. I had a mechanic check it out and he said it was the fuel pump.

Several instances where my 2017 Honda accord loses power or performance. Two instances are (1) stopped at traffic light and when I hit the gas to pull off it moved but would not do anything after that. The engine was on but no power. Thankfully I was close to a parking lot. The car rolled into the parking lot and a few the cut off on me. The 2nd time I was driving down the road, felt a little jolt and once again the car loss performance and I had to guide it to the side of the road.

I was driving on the interstate when the car started to sputter like it was about to kill then several warning lights came on. The check engine light, the steering light and the road traction lights. I got off on the nearest exit and call the tow truck because I was afraid to drive it. It was hesitant to start. I had my new born grandson and daughter with me at the time. This was a very scary situation!

The high pressure fuel pump is failing on my 2017 honda accord. There is currently a recall for this issue on the 2017 honda accord v6 models but not mine. I was driving down the highway and my car went into safe mode causing the car to slow/power down and cause traffics issues. All of my warning lights came on alerting me that there was a problem. This affects the safety of others and puts everyone at risk.

Very soon after purchasing this car in June, the check engine light came on. The problem was eventually determined to be with the fuel tank. I was told by the dealership that the tank was leaking fumes. They told me the problem was a known issue with this model. The part had been redesigned but neither the original or redesigned part are available. We have been waiting for several months for a replacement part. I was told that others are waiting as well and there is no information on a date for repair. My son continues to drive the car but we are concerned about the safety of gas fumes leaking out of the car

The V6 version is under recall. However, this vehicle should be as well. The car fails to accelerate. My car was at the Honda Dealership for over ten days. I came in because my car was unexpectedly unable to accelerate. Honda advised me there wasn't a code but I needed a new battery and other maintenance. I picked up my car, and within 1 mile, I could not accelerate when exiting and was nearly in an accident. Honda advised me at first the car had a misfire and then was unable to duplicate the error. I advised them that it was a safety hazard to drive the vehicle, and if I leave the shop and get into an accident it would be their fault. The next day they said it was a valve issue, and now fuel injectors. I did a search online, and many Honda Accords 2017 owners have the same issue.

Fuel injectors failed on two occasions causing the vehicle to lose power and stall while driving at highway speeds.to my knowledge the parts are no longer available for inspection. Our safety was put at risk due the loss of power on the highway. After the second reported incident, the dealer diagnosed the problem and replaced the faulty fuel injectors. To my knowledge, only the repairing dealer inspected the vehicle. The "check engine" light appeared as the engine began to lose power.

On Thursday July 14, while driving on HWY 278, the car had a sudden failure and starting decelerating. It almost got me and my daughter who was riding with me at the time killed. Only the grace of God protected us!!! I managed to get the car to the Honda dealer (DCH Academy Honda #708, Old Bridge, NJ). They informed me that the fuel pump failed and needed to change. The problem appeared all of a sudden and there was no warning at all. The car is being maintained regularly. This seems to be a manufacturing problem in the fuel pump for Honda Accord 2017 and it needs to be addressed. Again this almost got me killed!!!!!!
