2023 Honda Accord Hybrid

Good afternoon. I am contacting you because the dealer is not doing their job. For half a year of owning a car, we visited more services than we drove the car. The reasons for this: the steering wheel shook when driving this car from the very beginning, because the chassis was faulty. When braking, sounds and creaking are heard as if the car's chassis is shaking. The dealer said this is how it should be, but I know it shouldn't be this way. From the very beginning, the driver's front left wheel behaved incorrectly when driving at any time (the reason for this) was that the suspension system was not working properly. and all this is conveyed to me by the shaking steering wheel. The dealer says that's how it should be. (not true) Lately all the lights on the dashboard have been giving errors, including the check engine light. While driving on the road, we almost had an accident because all the lights on the dashboard lit up and the car itself stopped right on the road where there were a lot of cars. and the children were sitting in the car. we almost had an accident. 5 minutes later the car started and we drove off. Over the past six months this has happened 10 times. Solve the problem or we will go to court. Thank you

The 2023 Honda Accord Sport Hybrid has 8302 miles and it had complete brake failure. We had just refueled the car and moving away from the pumps, the pedal sank to the floor. I pumped the brakes several times and was able to stop the car. This was at about 3MPH. Received a message on the dash that the brakes were compromised and not to drive the car. Shut the car off and restarted. The brake pedal was spongy. We drove home (about 2 miles) very slowly, using the brakes minimally. When I got home, I shut the car off. I decided I wanted a picture of the dash warning, but it didn't return. Went for a very low speed drive to try to duplicate the problem, but it seems normal now. Bringing to original dealer, 12-17-2023. We've had several other issues related to the parking brakes and cruise control on 11-13-23. Brought to dealer on 11-16-23 and they were unable to fix due to part shortage. They failures displayed are: 1 - BRAKE SYSTEM - parking brake not available. 2 - BRAKE SYSTEM - Brake hold system problem. 3 - adaptive cruise control system problem. The drivers side rear seatbelt will not retract. Brought to dealer waiting for part to repair. We are fortunate this happened in a parking lot with little traffic. If this happened on a roadway at speed I would have no way to slow the car. This is a Hybrid so I am not able to downshift, the parking brake is not functioning due to previous problem and the electronic drive doe not provide compression braking if I shut the car off. I would be happy to answer any further questions you may have.

I was driving at 40mph and the vehicle was driving normally when it abruptly lost all power. There was no acceleration when the accelerator was pushed and I had to guide the vehicle to the side of the road. When the car stopped, a brake warning appeared and instructed me to see the dealer. I turned the car off and it would not restart for about 30 seconds. It finally restarted and I was able to drive the short distance home, however the brake warning remained on the dash. I just had the car towed to the dealer. The road conditions were clear and dry and I had no previous problems with the car. Brake warning: "Brake system: Brake system problem. Brake performance may be reduced. See your dealer." Thankfully I had not yet entered the highway where the car's rapid deceleration could have caused an accident at highway speeds and jeopardized the safety of those in my vehicle and others on the roadway. I read that there has been a very limited recall on accord hybrids due to similar issues (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID Number: 23V588000) and I believe this issue should be further investigated to determine whether the problems are more widespread.

Car sunroof exploded while driving on highway, was going 65 on the 75(N central expressway) Dallas,TX. 3 passengers (family) in car and witnessed the incident. Glass shattered and got all over us, minor injuries such as cuts. Almost hit somebody upon explosion and glass shattering which landed on me and passengers, luckily we didn’t crash. Weather was 62 degrees and took place at 10:02 PM so weather wasn’t too hot or too cold to cause the explosion. Super scary as we could have been hit, especially driving on a highway where you can’t stop and pull off right of way. Again no objects were thrown and the car has no other damage but sunroof. Person on roadside said that this has happened before to Hondas and Acuras. After brought to Dealer twice, I was told by Honda that they are not responsible for the car and never offered to even fix it or quote it. I bought/ leased the car 2 months ago and yet they are saying it’s not a manufacturing issue.

I experienced 8 separate malfunctions in the CMBS in 2 days. The systems problems still persists. And it is obvious that Honda is aware of the problem since nothing has changed in 10 years according to reports of the first incidences of the CMBS failures. I drove on the NAFTA super highway which is congested with semi-trucks. As described in the owners manual pg 413 it is obvious there is 1)radio waves interruptions, the car shutters just as the rear of the cab is approached, mostly like the transponders location, 3 occurances this trip but many more in the past 6 months since I purchased the vehicle. 2)Reflection from a trailer pallet bundle wrapped in clear plastic, it was obvious the glare from headlights created a reflection and caused the system to shutter the brakes and flash the BRAKE sign. 3) while driving into a curve with yellow reflective arrows caused the brakes to shutter. 4)in a dangerous construction zone while driving in the right lane against large white concrete barrier, the reflection created a sudden brake shutter. 5)Today, while driving in the rain through a neighborhood street, testing the cruise control at 27mph the brakes shuttered at a puddle reflection. I just got home from the Dealership who has no answers or solutions. And is very aware of the problem. Which in itself sounds unscrupulous. Paying all this money for a safety problem that could easily cause an accident.

Purchased the vehicle with 23 miles, notice the ride quality getting worse over the passing months. at 5800k miles or so I had to contact the dealership to report a possible issue so before driving 90 mins to an appointment I checked all wheel lug nuts, 3 lug nuts on the driver side and 2 lug nuts on the passenger side front were not properly torqued at the manufactures plant when built. I had the dealership check the front suspension, and balance of each wheel to find out the front two wheels were not properly balanced at the manufacture plant so the dealership corrected the balance issue. Unfortunately, that did not improve the ride quality which got worse to where it started to feel like the driver side tire was going flat. I took the vehicle to a 3rd party wheel/tire shop and had a road force check on the driver tire which initally showed the tire was defective, contacted goodyear corporate which they provided a credit towards the cost of a new replacement tire. The real issue came forward when the tire shop removed the tire which exposed the rim and a defective part know as a sound-deadening attachment to the rim which upon inspection was actually eating away at the tire from the inside with every rotation while driving. I took photos/video of the rim along with the bad tire to the dealership which was warrantied out and a new rim from Honda and new tire from goodyear was later installed. If i had driven 500 or less miles possibly on the interstate a blowout definitely would have taken place. There's no telling how many other vehicles that could have the same problem. My photos and video speak volume to the seriousness of the matter.

When driving the car at 45 mph, warning lights came on for: (1)Vehicle Stability system problem. Reduced traction and handling. See your dealer. (2)Electric power steering system problem. Steering assist reduced. See your dealer. (3)Hill start assist problem. Vehicle my role upon brake release. See your dealer. (4)Adaptive cruise control system problem. See your dealer. (5)Brake System problem. Brake Performance may be reduced. See your dealer. While these messages flashed, the car lost ability to accelerate, steer very well, and brake very well. The car came to a stop after it slowed and I slammed on the brakes as hard as I could. I placed in in park, turned it off, and then turned it back on. It drove normally for a few minutes and then another warning light came on for a few seconds. It disappeared and the car drove normally. The dealer said a code showed up but they couldn't replicate the issue. They ended up replacing the battery because they didn't want to give it back to me without a fix. About 4 weeks later, we were stopped on the highway and in park waiting for over an hour. As we sat there, the warning light came on that said, "Electric parking brake system problem. Parking brake not available. See your dealer." The dealer kept the car for 2 weeks, couldn't replicate the problem, and said there were no codes. They offered no fix. 2 weeks after that, the car flashed up a warning light while driving 5 mph in a parking lot. The warning light said that the "Lane assist" was not operational and that I should contact the dealer. I couldn't take a pic of it because it only flashed up for 5-10 seconds. I'm taking the car in later today.
