All dashboards lights is lid and comes off and on and intermittently electric issues... also horrible horrible all or most person who owns car complaints of underboost turbo charger and had to replace the turbo charger including myself and blown gasket.... causing a major sever safety issue especially driving....
I was driving slow to a 4 way st and slowly had a car pass across me so far away and it passed and all of a sudden emergency break and slam on break by itself causing the passenger in my car to hurt them self... I was unable to control this accident so bad!!!!
Starting in Sept 2023, while pulling out of a park in a garage, my car started throwing numerous warning messages in the dashboard regarding emissions, ABS, Brake System, Power Steering, etc with the Check Engine Light staying steady. I took it to one Honda dealership who after 'diagnosing' claimed it was the fuel injectors needing to be replaced. The car wasn't jerking or sputtering so I took the car to another mechanic who also didn't believe it was the fuel injectors and felt it was electrical. Took the car to another Honda dealership and they claimed the same thing about injectors. After having a reputable mechanic do software updates that the original or 2nd Honda dealership NEVER checked for (it needed 4 updates, but one of them couldn't be done for LKAS). Most of the warnings went away due to the updates but the LKAS warning and collision warning remained. So I took the car to Safelite (they had replaced my windshield back in July and back then they were able to recalibrate the sensor) BUT this time (Oct 2023) not only were they not able to recalibrate the LKAS, they said the front camera was not communicating with the system and this was an electrical problem and I have to go back to the dealership. After reading NUMEROUS complaints and similar issues in regards to the LKAS, this multiple warnings AND the car ghost braking on its own every now and then months before this, I hope you all really look into this and do a recall or find a solution on this car. Now I am forced to go back to the Honda dealership and will have to threaten them to do their job this time and really look at the car and not just tell me it is needing fuel injectors replaced. The car drives, no jerking, no sputtering, but not having a front camera talking to the system and now the TPMS system keeps saying i have low tire pressure and won't let me calibrate even though my tires are at the optimal 32 level stated in the manual, I fear more issues are going to pop up soon.
All electrical warning lights came on dashboard. This is very frustrating and scary. This needs to be a recall on this vehicle because nothing this serious is normal. I thought my car was falling apart. Honda needs to fix this problem and the owner should not be responsible.
The lights on this car pops up weekly sometimes when im driving pass 40 mph my car will just shut off. My brake hold button works on in off since ive gotten it i constantly get warnings like brake system problem, tire pressure monitor system problem, electrical prower steer Problem, acc problem, emissions problems all at once i have taking it to the dealer plenty of times but the problem never gets resolved i have been in almost 5 accidents due to my car just losing power

The warning lights appear out of nothing and the issue has happened without an incident. I-??ve been scared to drive my car with all these dash lights on. I don-??t feel safe and I don-??t want to put my life or kids life in danger.

I was driving on the freeway in Houston, TX going 65 mph in the middle lane and my engine begin to lose power, and start stalling. Almost causing me to wreck with my 8 yr old son in the back seat. I was advised by my the dealership that Honda has a recall on fuel pumpt with my year and model. I contacted Honda and was advised my car is the year and model of the fuel pump recall, but it wasn-??t effective by it. I feel that-??s very strange my car didn-??t apply to the recall, but it-??s doing the same thing other owners car doing with the faulty fuel pump recall. I am terrified by the incident and it has cause me so much anxiety and stress. I look to get my car repaired due to the recall and Honda isn-??t being helpful after myself and child almost had a wreck
In the multimple other complaints filed (regarding the Collision Mitigation System, Infotainment, etc.) it become obvious that Honda has really screwed up the firmware/software and how it interacts with the sensors/systems and the user on this vehicle. The issue, this time, was the common occurrence of the battery dying. HOWEVER, instead of simply putting up a message that says "Hello, your battery is in an untennable state", someone thought it would be a good idea to flush EVERY warning possible, as in "Anti-Lock Brake System Problem...", "Vehicle Stability Assist System Problem...", etc. And, of course, it would demand that you "take it to the dealer." Upon replacing the battery the issues went away, for a few days. Then, another set of warnings - this time, something to do with the "Emission System". Upon taking it to a non-Honda reputable mechanic (so, a third party without a conflict of interest), they reset the codes and then things seemed to settle down. Good to know - another thing that just "happens with these" when it comes to the Accords of the 2018+ model year.
The vehicle keeps stating the brake mitigation, acc, and other various Honda sensor features need to be repaired and to contact a dealer. The vehicle de-accelerates on its home and doesn-??t allow any of the Honda sense features to work. All the components of the dash are triggered at once. Most of the time the vehicle drives fine without the use of the Honda sense features. I have brought this to Honda and they state they don-??t see any issues known to cause this problem. Short of the fact they never seem to happen when I bring it to the dealership. Most of the time this goes away on its own but lately the problems are lasting days. I don-??t feel safe driving my own vehicle which has been greatly maintained.
The contact owns a 2018 Honda Accord.

Everytime I drive my car for a few hours the EPS light comes on and I have to pull over and turn my car and on. I have reached out to the dealer and they refuse to fix it. It has been happening for about 2 years. Close to 3.
I was on a hill my car stalled I hit the gas pedal it wouldn't accelerate so I let off the padel and went to try to accelerate for the second time but as I did it took off and I hit a pole
1. The Collision Mitigation Breaking System is braking for no reason, at random times while driving 2. My safety and the safety of others is put at risk because when driving on an open road, cars behind me may not have time to break and this could result in an accident. Not to mention, there's nothing in front of my vehicle, so normal things on the road don't cause drivers to assume a car with suddenly brake 3. Yes, the issues been confirmed but I'm expected to pay for it when this has been recalled on several other models 4. This has been happening for the last several months. I put a note in my car to turn off the sensor but as of today, my vehicle will not let me turn off the sensor anymore
Out of the blue car was having a glitch on the screen when turning on the vechical. The battery died and was replaced. Once battery was replaced engine light and brake like will turn on and off. After battery was replaced the engine light turned on and started to read that ignition and sparks plugs are bad. I have spoke to about 50 people with the same car and they are having the same issues and the mechanics do not know what is wrong
Door locks malfunctioning intermittently across multiple doors. Locks cannot be toggled by master control or fob. Passenger in seat of defective lock could be trapped in vehicle in emergency if unable to manually toggle door lock. I have fixed one lock only for the issue to present itself on another door lock immediately after repair.
