I have was called steering sticking in my steering wheel when I-??m driving and it stuck straight and I have to turn it a little bit. I have to kinda yank it just a tad bit because the steering is sticking is an issue with other Hondas. I-??m having it also.
Car drifts to left in any lane while driving on highway. You have to hold the wheel firmer to the right to keep it straight at highway speeds than on local roads. Was not like this new, but with 35K miles something is wrong. Alignment done by two different Honda Dealers who had different print outs from a Hunter Alignment Machine. Second dealer-??s helped some but you get a arm workout driving this car and unsafe for my wife to drive.
[XXX] vehicle has stalled in the middle of the highway 2 times, and would shut off mid drive. both times the car would shut off, start loosing speed and go into limp mode, and then stop. when trying to turn the car on, the whole dash board would light up with different errors, RDM problem, TPMS, CMBS, engine system error, electric power steering, Adaptive cruise etc. I have taken the vehicle 3 weeks prior to the latest incident to a local dealer, DEAN HONDA (911 Clairton Blvd, Pittsburgh, PA 15236), and they said they couldn't find the issue or cause. i have video and picture evidence of problem. looking at the vehicle model, 2019 Honda accord, there are 3 recalls which describe my issue, but when entering the vin number says that my specific vehicle does not have any recalls. this is very dangerous, not only for the occupants of the vehicle, but also other vehicles driving on the road, as i was in a close call 2 times already while driving the vehicle, and the dealer, and HONDA are not doing anything to prevent the issue from reoccurring. thank you email address for contact is [XXX] Sincerely, [XXX] files included, also a quick link for the files, with larger video quality https://photos.app.goo.gl/TeAVX54tLrPJcT1p7 INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

This car brakes on its own. It has done this over and over. Honda claims It has no issues dealer has always serviced it replaced things but it brakes on the freeway, its just shuts down nothing I can do. I reported when it began to happen I even filed a report and sent letter to Honda USA. It last did it a few weeks ago on an expressway near my home. First time it ever did it on the street its always been freeways. I have documented emails to dealer, Honda corporate VM. No one is helping this car is not safe. It is not a made up thing. This car brakes on its own. It beeps signals when it does. It does not move it just shuts down. I have not been hit but know it will one day happen. If it does it has been reported and documented to Piercey Honda now Envision Honda in Milpitas Ca. My service advisor is Adrian Cruz
There have been two incidents where my 2019 Honda Accord braked extremely hard and it was out of my control. The first incident was while I was exiting a highway on a rainy night at approximately 30mph, I had cars behind me that had to brake extremely hard due to my braking system which could have caused a rear end collision. The second incident was while I was driving approximately 50mph on a small two lane highway, I had other cars behind that had to swerve to avoid a collision once again. My car also detects many crack repairs on the highway as lane lines and attempts to depart the actual lane. I have to force the steering wheel to stay in the accurate lane. Unfortunately, I no longer feel safe driving my own car.
Sudden engine power loss; merging to highway speed was not possible. Risk to safety was the loss was when needing to merge with traffic at highway speeds. The dealership could not reproduce the problem. The check engine light did come on, but no codes were generated. The check engine light extinguished before the vehicle could be taken to the dealership. Only possible symptom, prior to the event, and still existing, is a lack of power, compared to when it was new. The dealership cannot confirm the cause of this power loss. There are other indications that there is a controls/computer problem, in my opinion. Power assist is not always available, but then suddenly engages, causing the car to jerk. My conclusion is that the vehicle does not immediately recognize the steering input. The problem is most pronounced when traveling straight, on the highway and needing to make a mild lane correction to maintain the lane. The vehicle does not immediately recognize the mild steering input until the steering wheel has been turned significantly. Once the steering wheel has been turned significantly and the steering input is recognized, the power steering engages, causing a sudden jerk and a need to recover control. The dealership has not been able to reproduce this problem. I have been able to temporarily resolve it, by momentarily engaging the Lane Keep Assist. Normal, expected power assisted steering is recovered for a period of time.
At approximately 16:08 EST on Jan 1, 2022 I was traveling westbound on I-76 at mile marker 146.9 WB (40?02'03.0"N 78?29'50.0"W) in the center lane on a straight section of road at approximately 70mph. Car mileage was 21264 at the time of the crash. The weather at the time of the crash was light rain and with temperature approximately 50F. The car suddenly and for no apparent reason began skidding / fishtailing. I tried steering to regain control of the vehicle and applying the brakes to slow down, but the car continued fishtailing. I did not feel the anti lock brakes engage at any point during the skid. I went into the left lane, and struck the center concrete barrier, causing the airbags to deploy and the car to come to rest in the left lane. 3 symptoms appeared the day of the crash which had never happened before: 1) Several hours before the crash, the vehicle began handling strangely. It felt like there was either steering or brake input from the land keeping assist / adaptive cruise control / traction control systems which was "fighting" me and causing the vehicle to swerve slightly. These handling anomalies occurred randomly about 10 times immediately before the crash. 2) About 2 hours before the crash, the check engine light began flashing and there was a loss of engine power. I pulled over and restarted the car, which seemed to resolve the check engine light / power loss. 3) At one point the adaptive cruise control turned itself off and gave a message about traction conditions. To my knowledge the problem has not been confirmed or reproduced, and the vehicle has not yet been inspected by Honda, my insurer, or anyone else. As of Jan 6, the vehicle is currently in a yard near Altoona PA awaiting assessment, and is available for inspection upon request. I informed Honda about the crash on Jan 6, 2022. They gave me a case number and said to work through my insurer on next steps. Honda service bulletin 21-052 may be relevant to this incident.
The car-??s steering wheel doesn-??t respond to driver-??s input correctly causing the car to constantly wander around within the lane. It is impossible for the driver to keep the car centered within a highway lane. In creates an increased chance of hitting nearby vehicles. Also, it requires the driver to focus mostly on centering the car inside the lane and less time on wider observation of the surroundings. During an emergency maneuver to avoid any object on the road, the car may not respond to the driver-??s input as intended. As shown in the attached video, as the driver tries to turn the steering wheel clockwise from the centered position, the steering wheel doesn-??t move a bit as if something is tightly holding it. When more turning force is applied by the driver, the steering wheel loosens up instantly which creates an over turning of the car. Although the degree of the movement appears small in the video, this is big enough to noticeably shift the car within a highway lane. I am very afraid that if the car will let driver turn the steering during an emergency situation. This problem happens with all the active safety system turned off including lane departure warning and lane keep assists. The problem is more reproduceable in certain condition.The temperature should be around 50 degrees or below. The car must be driven for 30min or longer on highway at around 70mph. The steering wheel must be turned from the centered position. The car is available for inspection upon request. Other Honda Accord and civic owners seem to experience the same problem as discussed in Internet forums. I took the car to the dealer and they couldn-??t reproduce the problem or stated that it is within design specification. There haven-??t been other problem in the car to cause this behavior. I purchased this car new and the problem started after a year of ownership.
I filed a complaint about this vehicle in October of 2020 when it was 5 months old at that time because it would slam on breaks and jerk the steering wheel for no known reason and with no one around. It has continued to do this intermittently as well as other erratic driving that cant be accounted for including at times getting confused when passing exit ramps where the car will slam on breaks and jerk to try to exit. I was driving this afternoon at highway speeds and the steering wheel began to shimmy (vibrating back and forth). It felt like there was a potnetial tire blow out but my TPMS did not indicate any loss of pressure. I assumed the car was having another one of its unexplained steering behaviors. I know from previous experience that turning the blinker on will stop the shimmying if it thinks you are trying to switch lanes so I turned my blinker on and I moved over one lane hoping it would stop. The shimmying (vibrating of steering wheel) continued and shortly there after it pulled hard left on me driving me directly into a cement barricade that was located a few feet off of the side of the road. I hit the barricade at highway speed and bounced off of it spun around and re-hit the barricade with the rear of the car which is what sustained the majority of the damage when it hit. Though I hit the barricade with significant force the airbags did not deploy. My daughter has been in the car with me on a previous occasion when the car has done this and I have complained about it numerous times to numerous people. I do not feel safe in this car...it only does this at highway speeds and on the highway...it will kill me or someone else if something is not done. I have contacted Honda cooperate and also filed a report with them as well.
I was driving on the highway doing a normal lane change then all of a sudden lost all control of the vehicle. Loss of power and maneuverability. I went into the side ditch where my vehicle completely flipped over. I had just got the BCM recall on my vehicle 5 days prior. I cannot explain how, only that my vehicle lost complete control for no reason, it was as if I had turned my engine off while changing lanes.
While driving on the highway numerous warning signal pops up, the car pulls to the left and right then suddenly reduces its speed from 60 to 35 and eventually to a full stop. The car gas pedal is stiff the car won't move, this is the 3 time it happens with 7 days. It was taken to the dealership, they stated that it's fixed. However, that far from the truth. In need of some help, apparantly the 2019 Honda Accord is having this issue there should be a recall before some is killed.
Two times in the first 5000 miles I have owned this car the car has on the highway beeped quickly de-accelerated and tried to pull my steering when there is no vehicle near me.
I have had the vehicle in the shop numerous times for not being able to open the gas tank to fill up the car. Seals coming off the doors. Entertainment system quit working and not responding. Now the vehicle slams on its breaks for no reason when no vehicles are around. Also the vehicle departs it's lane when it is supposed to keep me in it. Also the vehicles brakes grind when I step on them. Also the car makes a grinding noise when I step on the gas pedal and the vehicle sometimes stays in 4000 RPM when driving done the road. Also when driving down the road and going 70 mph and I step on the breaks the whole car sometimes shakes and doesn't stop when needed. It started with issues when I got the vehicle not much later. It current only 17800 miles on it and I shouldn't be having these issues.
The acc, brake system, lkas, and all security systems sent a message that they are off and does not work, after for no reason, no obstacle it braked itself. Now the entire system is off.
I bought this vehicle and noticed on the way home from dealer that it had a vibration in the steering. At 62mph the vibration was very bad. I called the dealer and they said the weight on the wheel probably came off. I drove this vehicle 300 miles and took it to the dealer. They removed the wheel and tire and found a bulge on front tire. They replaced the tire and today I got an E-mail from Honda motor stating this was not a Honda problem and I needed to contact the tire company [hankook] this car should have never been sold and the defect should have been caught either with the tire manufacture or by Honda when it was installed. Their take on this is almost like it is my fault I selected the the wrong car
On a total of 6 occasions during the first 4500 miles of using my new car, the brake alert sign activated without reason for provocation, I.e., no other cars nearby, nothing in roadway. Four occurred while doing 65 mph on interstate. The last 2 occasions were startling as the brakes were triggered, causing the car to fishtail and swerve left momentarily as if attempting to awaken a driver falling asleep. On those occasions I was doing about 50-55 mph on a highway with other cars on the road but not close enough to need to brake. One time I was taking an exit to get on another highway. The other time I was going through a construction zone but there were no circumstances that would have caused the need to brake. I took the car to the Honda dealership immediately after second occurrence and left for 24+ hours. They acted as iff that couldn't have happened unless I were too close to something -- they'd never heard of the problem. They test drove for 13 miles, and the problem did not occur for them. Nothing problematic showed up on diagnostics. Nothing was done to correct the situation. I disabled the collision mitigation system after leaving the dealership.
Have taken my brand new 2019 Honda Accord sport 1.5 to two different dealerships due to my car not tracking straight. Each time a minor tweak was done to the alignment. After researching a bit more I found there is an issue with the gear box being faulty (53620-twa-A28) which causes the tracking to be off with and without lane keep assist engaged. I am trying to get this issue rectified and awaiting dealer feedback. I have contacted the dealer and made them aware of the issue. The 2018 and 2019 Accord are very similar and the issue is present in 2018S and a few 2019S after reading accounts on 'accordxclub.com'. my build month and year was November 2018.
