Engine, Apr 8, 2019, fire
THE CAR ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE FOR NO APPARENT REASON. IT HAPPENED ON MARCH 28 1:30PM WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON CALIFORNIA HIGHWAY 24. THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING ON HIGHWAY SPEED OF 65 MILES PER HOUR FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES WHEN I FIRST SMELLED SOMETHING IS BURNING. I THEN SAW SMOKE COMING OUT FROM THE FRONT SECTION OF THE CAR. I IMMEDIATELY CHANGED LANES TO THE SIDE OF THE FREEWAY AND ATTEMPTED TO STOPPED THE CAR BY PRESSING THE FOOT BRAKE. THE CAR HAS SIGNIFICANTLY SLOW DOWN BUT IT WAS CONTINUED ROWING FORWARD. IT IS ON A SLIGHTLY DOWNHILL SLOP. AS SEEING SMOKE GETTING DARKER AND MORE STRONG, I PRESSED THE PARKING BRAKE AND THE CAR STILL WOULD NOT STOPPED. I THEN OPENED THE CAR DOOR AND ROWED OUT FROM THE CAR ONTO THE HIGHWAY. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO CAR AND I WAS OK. I THEN CALLED 911 TO HAVE FIRE DEPARTMENT PUT OUT THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS TOTALED. I HAVE 2 CONCERNS. MY CAR WAS JUST 16 MONTHS OLD WHEN IT HAPPENED. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHT ON BEFORE IT HAPPENED AND WE HAVE FOLLOWED THE SERVICE SCHEDULE. HOW CAN SOMETHING LIKE THIS CAN HAPPEN TO A RELATIVELY NEW CAR AND PERFECT SERVICE RECORD. THE OTHER CONCERN IS WHEN THE CAR WAS ON FIRE, BOTH THE FOOT BREAK AND PARKING BREAK COULD NOT STOPPED THE CAR FROM MOVING. HAS THIS HAPPENED IN A UPHILL OR DOWN HILL SLOP, I WOULD BE AT GREAT RISK.
Visibility/wiper, Apr 8, 2019
HAD THE CAR ABOUT 6 MONTHS, AND HAVE HALF A DOZEN SMALL ROCK CHIPS IN THE GLASS. HAD SAFELITE COME OUT TO REPAIR AND THEY SAID THEY ARE GETTING A TON OF THESE NEW ACCORDS IN FOR REPAIR AND REPLACEMENT BUT MY CHIPS WERE TOO SMALL TO REPAIR. GUESS I HAVE TO WAIT FOR THEM TO CRACK AND SPREAD AND GET A WHOLE NEW $1,000 WINDSHIELD. THIS GLASS SEEMS WAY TOO PRONE TO CHIPS AND CRACKING. OTHER OWNERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THEIR WINDSHIELD CRACKING WITH NO SIGNS OF VISIBLE DAMAGE.

DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY, 65 MPH WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON. SUDDENLY, WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND VEHICLE ABRUPTLY AND QUICKLY DECELERATED FROM 65 TO 20 MPH, FORCING ME TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THERE WAS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CAR. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF. BECAUSE OF THE POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION SITTING ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY, I RE-STARTED THE CAR A FEW MINUTES LATER AND DROVE TO THE NEXT EXIT A COUPLE MILES AHEAD AT A REDUCE SPEED. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND CALLED FOR ASSISTANCE. THE HONDA DEALER IN ORCHARD PARK, NY ,WHERE THE CAR WAS TOWED, TOLD ME THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS EXTREMELY HIGH, AND CHANGED MY OIL TO BRING IT TO A NORMAL OIL LEVEL. THE DEALER FURTHER TOLD ME THAT THE BECAUSE I DRIVE SHORT TRIPS AND THE WEATHER HAS BEEN COLD THAT IS WHY GASOLINE IS GOING INTO THE OIL AND GIVING ME ENGINE TROUBLE ON MY NEW CAR. MY HONDA DEALER IN ROCHESTER, NY CONFIRMED THE SAME AND SAID TO DRIVE MY CAR A COUPLE OF TIMES A WEEK FOR A LONGER PERIOD OF TIME TO HELP AVOID THIS ISSUE. MY DRIVING HABITS AS A STUDENT LIVING ON A SMALL CAMPUS, IN A COLD AREA, ARE THAT OF A FEW SHORT DRIVES A DAY TO CLASSES. I USE MY CAR PRIMARILY FOR DRIVING MYSELF HOME AND TO SCHOOL WHICH IS A 2 HOUR DRIVE. THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY HONDA ACCORD, AND BOTH HONDA DEALERSHIPS SAID THAT THERE HAVE BEEN SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THE HONDA CR-V & CIVIC BUT THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANY ISSUES WITH A HONDA ACCORD. I WANT TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT MY NEW 2018 HONDA ACCORD WITH 2220 MILES HAS THE SAME ISSUE, AND THE ENGINE MALFUNCTION ON THE HIGHWAY SCARED THE HELL OUT OF ME AND MY FAMILY AND I AM VERY GRATEFUL I DID NOT GET HURT OR MY CAR MALFUNCTIONING DID NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND CAUSE INJURY TO OTHER DRIVERS.
Service brakes, Apr 5, 2019
CAR HAS A SAFETY SENSOR SYSTEM CALLED CMBS (COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM) THAT IS SUPPOSED TO HELP YOU AVOID COLLISIONS. ON 2 OCCASIONS THIS BRAKING SYSTEM HAS ENGAGED FOR NO APPARENT REASON CAUSING THE CAR TO BRAKE ABRUPTLY IN TRAFFIC CREATING EXTREME ACCIDENT POTENTIAL.

TPMS WARNING LIGHT COME ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN TIRE PRESSURE IS CHECKED, PRESSURES ARE OKAY. WARNING IS A FALSE ALARM. AFTER SYSTEM IS RESET/RECALIBRATED THE TPMS IS OKAY FOR 50 TO 100 MILES BEFORE ANOTHER FALSE ALARM WARNING COMES ON. RESETTING SYSTEM LASTS ANOTHER 50 TO 100 MILES

UPON DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT 60 MPH AT NIGHT, THE ACCELERATOR PEDDLE WAS RAPIDLY DEPRESSED TO AVOID ANOTHER RAPIDLY ONCOMING CAR FROM THE REAR OF MY CAR. MY CAR STUMBLED AND A BLINKING CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CAR THEN WENT INTO AN OPERATING MODE IN WHICH ABOUT 80% OF THE CAR'S POWER WAS LOST AND COULD ONLY BE DRIVEN VERY SLOWLY. THE CAR WAS ABLE TO BE DRIVEN 5 MILES TO MY HOUSE. AT HOME THE CAR WAS TURNED OFF. UPON RESTARTING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS OFF AND THE CAR THEN PERFORMED NORMALLY. A SIMILAR INCIDENT PREVIOUSLY OCCURRED BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. SEVERAL DAYS AFTER THIS INCIDENT, THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND THERE WAS NO FAULT CODES REPORTED FROM THE ENGINE CONTROL MODULE. AS A RESULT, THE DEALER DID NOTHING. THIS IS SURPRISING SINCE THIS WAS A MAJOR PERFORMANCE AND SAFETY ANOMALY FOR THIS CAR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, HOWEVER, NO ACTION OR COMMENT FROM THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN RECEIVED.

I PURCHASED MY CARS ABOUT 4 MONTHS AGO AND NOTICED SOME ISSUES AS SOON AS I LEFT THE DEALERSHIP. FIRST THERE'S NO MILEAGE DIGITAL SPEEDOMETER, ONLY KILOMETER. AS SOON AS YOU SWITCH TO MILES IT DISAPPEARS. SECOND, THE CAR PLAY SYSTEM OFTEN TIMES RESETS ITSELF WHILE IN DRIVING MODE , ALSO HAPPENS A LOT WHEN GEAR IS SHIFTED. THIRD, LANE SENSOR SYSTEM IS COMPLETELY DEFECTED AS WELL AND CANNOT BE TRUSTED FOR A SECOND, THE WORST IS THE CAR POOL LANE, IN CALIFORNIA IS A YELLOW LANE AND THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY PULLS TOWARDS IT. IT OBVIOUSLY CANNOT DETECT YELLOW LINES. TODAY SOMETHING NEW HAPPENED AND COMPLETELY CHANGED THE GAME FOR ME : THE CAR EMERGENCY BREAKS WERE ACTIVATED BY NOTHING AND OUT OF NOWHERE WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON 90 MPH !!!!!!! ALL MY STUFF WERE THROWN FROM THE BACK SEAT TO THE FRONT AND I GOT SERIOUSLY INJURED BY THE SEAT-BELT THAT WAS PUSHED AGAINST ME! LET ME MAKE IT CLEAR...THERE WERE ZERO CARS BEFORE ME OR AROUND ME ! THANK GOD FOR NO CARS BEHIND ME OR THIS CITATION COULD HAVE ENDED DIFFERENTLY. I DROVE THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP AND LEFT THE KEYS OVER THERE TILL THEY FIGURE IT OUR OR GIVE ME A DIFFERENT CAR. I'M SCARED TO GO BACK DRIVING IT.
Service brakes, Mar 29, 2019
ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS MY CAR'S AUTOMATIC COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM HAS ENGAGED WITHOUT NOTICE AND ANY REASON. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF MY CAR AND THE CAR BRAKED SUDDENLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING 45 MPH. THE LAST TIME THIS HAPPENED I WAS THROWN FORWARD AND BACK WITH A JERK. SINCE THEN I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING LOWER NECK AND SHOULDER PAIN. I DISENGAGED THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM AND WILL TAKE THE CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR DIAGNOSIS.

I ENGAGED ACC, THAT CONTROLS CRUISE CONTROL AND FRONTAL COLLISION ,MITIGATION SYSTEM, IN NORMAL TRAFFIC. WHILE TRAVELLING AT A SPEED OF 60 MILES PER HOUR, FOLLOWING ANOTHER CAR THE SPACING WAS CONTROLLED BY ACC. THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME CONTINUED FORWARD, MY BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED AND CAUSED ME TO GO FROM 60 MPH TO ABOUT 35 MPH. THE VEHICLE TO MY REAR HAD TO TAKE AN EVASIVE MANEUVER TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. I SAW NO ROAD DEBRIS. I PULLED OVER TO CHECK THE RADAR UNIT AND THE CAMERA SYSTEM. NO ISSUES OBSERVED. DURING THIS TRIP THE ACC WENT OFFLINE 3 TIMES DOWN TO SC AND TWICE IT FAILED DRIVING BACK HOME. EACH TIME I WAS IN TRAFFIC AND CAUSED ISSUES AS THE SYSTEM WAS TRYING TO MANAGE MY SPEED IN TRAFFIC.

2018 ACCORD TOURING 2.0 ABOUT 1800 MILES ON IT. THE CAR SHIFTS VERY ROUGH IN THE FIRST 3-4 GEARS WHEN THE CAR IS COLD. ALSO HAPPENS AT TIMES WHEN ITS WARMER.

Vehicle speed control, Mar 8, 2019
I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OCCURRENCES OF A WARNING THAT STATES "COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEM. PLEASE SEE YOUR DEALER." THIS ERROR MESSAGE WILL POP UP RANDOMLY WITH NO PATTERN WHILE USING THE ADVANCED CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION ON MY VEHICLE. WHILE THIS ERROR IS PRESENT I AM NOT ABLE TO USE ANY KIND OF CRUISE CONTROL SETTINGS. I WAS HAVE SEEN MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER ABOUT THIS ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES AND HAVE BEEN GIVEN MANY HORRIBLE SOLUTIONS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO JUST PULL THE VEHICLE OVER AND RESTART IT TO CLEAR THE ERRORS OUT. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD BY MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP THAT THE CAMERA IS JUST DIRTY AND THAT I NEED TO CARRY A BOTTLE OF WATER AND A RAG TO WIPE OFF THE WINDSHIELD ANYTIME IT HAPPENS. I HAVE TRIED BOTH OF THESE SOLUTIONS SEVERAL TIMES AND NEITHER HAS WORKED. IN FACT EVERY TIME I ATTEMPT TO TURN OFF AND RESTART MY VEHICLE I HAVE EIGHT OTHER SAFETY SYSTEM FAILURE MESSAGES THAT POPULATE.
Other or unspecified, Mar 5, 2019
WHILE DRIVING I RECEIVED ERROR CODE ADVISING THAT THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM HAD FAILED AND I SHOULD SEE A DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. AFTER STOPPING AND TURNING OFF THE VEHICLE THE ERROR MESSAGE WENT AWAY AND SYSTEM WAS SHOWING TO BE FUNCTIONING. 2 WEEKS LATER WHILE DRIVING AT SLOW SPEED IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD I GOT THE SAME ERROR MESSAGE. AGAIN, STOPPED AND STARTED THE VEHICLE AND MESSAGE GOES AWAY.

I GOT MY FIRST CRACK ON MY WINDSHIELD 2 WEEKS AFTER BUYING IT. NEVER HEARD THE ROCK HIT IT . IT WAS A VERY TEENY TINY NICK AND TURNED INTO A LONG CRACK ACROSS MY WINDSHIELD. THE SECOND CRACK WAS TODAY. A ROCK CAME FROM A SEMI TRUCK TRAVELING IN THE LANE NEXT TO ME AS I WAS PASSING ON THE LEFT SIDE LANE. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE ROCK HIT. THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED. I HAVE A LINE SPLITTING ACROSS MY PASSENGER SIDE AND NOW ANOTHER ALONG THE DRIVER SIDE. IT SEEMS THE GLASS IS MADE VERY POORLY. THE WINDSHIELD CRACKS EASILY. I HAVE OWNED A TON OF VEHICLES. ROCKS HIT THE WINDSHIELD FROM TIME TO TIME AND NEVER CAUSED A CRACK ACROSS MY WINDSHIELD. A NICK MAYBE YES, BUT NOT AN INSTANT CRACK THAT WILL NOT STOP.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WHEN THE TRAFFIC CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP AND MY EMERGENCY COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING KICKED IN. I PROCEEDED TO PRESS THE BRAKES MYSELF AND THE COMPUTER AUTOMATICALLY LOCKED THE BRAKES AND WOULD NOT RELEASE FOR NEARLY SEVEN SECONDS. I WAS COMPLETELY STOPPED ON THE FREEWAY AND ALMOST REAR-ENDED DUE TO THE BRAKES NOT RELEASING. I PRESSED THE GAS SEVERAL TIMES AND PRESS THE BRAKES TO TRY TO RELEASE IT BUT NOTHING WORKED UNTIL THE BRAKES EVENTUALLY RELEASED THEMSELVES ABOUT 7 SECONDS LATER.
