The vehicles braking system causes warped roters at very low mileage. Using these systems in combination with the warped roters causes vehicle shaking, driver distraction, and increased stopping distance. Honda replaced the first set of rotors under warranty which temporarily fixed the issue. However issues related to these systems incur excessive application of the brakes resulting in a resurfacing of the problem after a short time. Honda refuses to acknowledge this safety issue or repair
I bought this car with 7 miles on it. My husband instantly kept saying why is your car shaking when you apply the brakes? I didn't notice before but was, especially if your stopping from a speed of 50mph or more. By the time of my first service it was increasingly worse. I had them check it but they said it was fine. It got worse! I went back again & explained if it was fine we have a problem. They checked it again, said there must be a manufacturer defect with rotors. They machined them & put new pads. The next morning backing out of car port- scrubbing metal sound and squeal. These brakes are faulty and I can no longer trust that Honda cares. I'm trading my car for a maxima in September. I have owned 7 Honda's. this was my first brand ne one. Not good
With only 2600 miles on the car, I went in for a inspection at Honda and the rear brakes were already fading to the point that I might need to replace them within 2K more miles. From what I read, the stabilizing feature that Honda implemented is a bit too aggressive and because of that the rear brakes are wearing out much faster than they should.
The automatic braking system was activated when I was driving ~40mph on a straight highway under clear weather conditions with no cars in front of me. Fortunately, the car behind me was able to avoid me but I did receive a few honks and a couple of finger salutes. I immediately reported the problem to my dealership and still haven't heard from them - 4 hours and counting.

I [xxx] am writing this letter about my 2020 Honda Accord. VIN number [xxx]. I leased this car in January of 2019 from tampa Honda. My brother's name is on the lease and his name is [xxx]. he has been leasing cars for me over 5 years, from Honda. On February 10, 2020, I was outside cleaning my car, like I always do for the last 20 years with the car running so I can listen to the music. I was on the passenger side cleaning the inside dash board, and all of a sudden the car rolled backwards. I was in a state of shock and didn't know how to stop it. I was half way in the car, and half way outside with my feet on the ground. The car rolled out in the street and hit the car parked across street. I had to file a claim for the car I hit, plus I went to the hospital because I hurt my leg. I contacted tampa Honda and was told to take this to the service department. They wouldn't help me, so I waited to Monday, and I went to take it to the finance and spoke to [xxx] and showed him the video and showed him a video of the car going in reverse by itself and they said there is nothing they can do for me. I then contacted Honda corporation office and explained to them the situation and they gave me a case number, [xxx], and told me someone would get back to me in 3 days. The lady [xxx] contacted me and told me it was nothing wrong with the car, and she said she is sorry for what happened, but there is nothing they can do. She also told me that it is a good thing I contacted my insurance to fix the other person's car, but there is nothing she can do. I am writing this letter in hopes of getting some kind of help, because the car is not safe and they will not take it back. My neighbor has surveillance and he uploaded a video to you tube.

From being stopped at a stop light, I then proceeded through the intersection once the light turned green. There was a steel construction road plate on the road just beyond the far side of the intersection and as I approached it at approx 25mph, the emergency braking warning signal on the dash came on and the car autonomously braked heavily to a stop just before the road plate. There were no cars or objects in front of me other than the steel road plate. This heavy braking resulted in my vehicle being rear ended by an SUV. Fortunately no one was hurt.
Car with less than 8000 miles had complete failure of brakes going through a stop sign on a city street (25 miles an hour) and caused a crash that totaled the car. Shortly before the crash the brakes seemed harder to stop at previous stop but still worked.
I was driving on the highway going 65 mph and all of a sudden my car brakes came on while I still had my foot on the gas pedal. Luckily for me there where no cars behind. I have schedule an appointment with Honda service depart first thing tomorrow morning. I just purchased my Honda Accord 2020 vehicle a month ago.
I was driving on interstate 15 going 70mph on a clear sunny day and no traffic was in front of the vehicle. The car suddenly flash the brake light indicator and the vehicle began stopping instantly as if their was car in front of mine. Luckily I looked the mirror and seen a semi truck behind me hit his brakes and I had to floor the gas pedal before being rear ended bu the semi truck. This could of caused multiple fatality in my car if I did not hit the gas pedal when the car braked for no reason. The car is only 6 mo old and has 15,000K miles on it.
Breaks sensors caution pops on screen for no reason (it's worried for me) 1.- break system problem and 2.- anti-lock system problem. Seat belt from the top adjustment that plastic are annoyed noise as same noise from the center windshield and heater center noise. Who I can be safety if that noise comes from the seat belt? the tachometer is not visible when selecting any option on the information screen. This problems needs to fix and improve.
I was driving on the highway on a sunny day with no other cars around me, and nothing in front of me. I was driving approximately 55mph, and all of a sudden the collision mitigation braking system engaged and almost brought the car to a full stop. The braking system engaged for approximately 4 seconds, my foot remained on the gas because I was startled and could not understand what was happening, and had no time to react. The automatic braking system then released, and the car kept driving.
I just filed this complaint and checked the box that I did not want my information shared with the manufacturer prior to an investigation. I would like this information to be shared with the manufacturer prior to an investigation. I was driving on the highway on a sunny day with no other cars around me, and nothing in front of me. I was driving approximately 55mph, and all of a sudden the collision mitigation braking system engaged and almost brought the car to a full stop. The braking system engaged for approximately 4 seconds, my foot remained on the gas because I was startled and could not understand what was happening, and had no time to react. The automatic braking system then released, and the car kept driving.
Approximately right after I purchased the car, I began having trouble with the brake. The brake system is harder than normal; when I apply pressure to the brake pedal, it feels like it has several layers until I push it to the end. It feels like it doesn't respond right away. Also, the brake is giving me a strong respond, so I feel the car is shaking significantly when I do an immediate stop. Also, when I apply pressure to the brake, the motion of the car rush forward and slide down before it responds correctly.
