113 reports, newest first. Show all

  1. Electrical system, Fuel/propulsion system, May 2, 2025

    The motor to the lock in the gas tank makes a very loud sound and doesn’t appear to work properly

  2. Power train, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 30, 2025, crash

    While driving my 2019 Honda Accord at approximately 65 mph on the highway, the car suddenly lost power, went into limp mode, and the steering wheel locked up. I was unable to turn or control the vehicle, which resulted in another car crashing into me. I sustained injuries in the accident and required medical attention. The incident was extremely dangerous and could have been fatal. After being towed to Russell & Smith Honda, they confirmed a blown head gasket was the cause of the failure. This issue is already the subject of a class-action lawsuit due to known design flaws in the 1.5T engine. Honda only offered partial assistance, leaving me responsible for thousands in repair costs. This vehicle is unsafe and needs to be investigated immediately.

  3. Fuel/propulsion system, Apr 16, 2025

    We were sitting at a red light and when accelerating once green a warning appeared on the dash stating the EVAP system was failing and to see dealer. Then more warning appeared stating the following systems were failing, ABS, TPMS, Cruise Control, Driver Assist, Electronic Power Steering. Basically all electronic systems were failing. The car would not accelerate properly. The car would not go over 2500 RPMs making acceleration nearly impossible and the car would lose speed when traveling up a hill. We managed to make it to a school parking lot to safely pull off the road. The car had to be towed to a local mechanic. This all happened with zero warning.

  4. Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 28, 2025

    1. Headgasket, fuel injectors, and fuel pump failed on this vehicle. Upon inspection Gwinnett Place Honda responded that this was a very common problem and that they see upwards of hundreds of cars per month equipped with the 1.5 liter turbo charged engine. 2. This affected my safety because during the whole ordeal my car went into a “limp mode” while doing 80mph down a busy highway causing me to rapidly lose speed and most cause a major accident. Unable to get off the road way due to my car shutting off I needed to have bystanders block a lane and push the vehicle off. 3.Yes it has been reproduced by both a Honda dealership and an independent service center 4.Honda stated that they wanted to swap the motor so they could send it to the manufacturer to have it studied, however in return I would be getting a motor with 90,000 miles while having to pay $12,000.00 out of pocket. 5.The car was showing a “Christmas tree” dash with every light on ranging from check engine, power steering, abs, lane mitigation, and climate control. On early mornings the car would have a misfire on startup due to the fuel injectors and during the day it would lose coolant however NOT leak it out.

  5. Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 26, 2025

    Car failed to start and all warning lights on dash were present. To restart the vehicle, the battery was disconnected and reconnected. As a result, the 2019 Honda Accord was taken to the dealership for repair. Upon inspection by the dealership the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The recall part is still unavailable.

  6. Electrical system, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Jan 4, 2025

    All of a sudden I was driving and every light on the dash lit up the car starting stalling and shut off We replaced the spark plugs and the coils because they told us that was the problem and it's still doing the same thing quite a few people that are having this issue got a recall letter.. I never received a recall for this problem And every time I put my VIN number in it's saying zero recalls something is wrong this is not safe for me and my children

  7. Fuel/propulsion system, Dec 30, 2024

    My vehicle is subject to NHTSA Recall Number 23V-858, Honda Campaign Number YGK, Service Bulletin Number 24-009. I have received multiple notifications via US mail from the American Honda Motor Co, Inc., Automobile Division notifying me of a recall of the fuel pump. The first notice was received in February 2024 with instructions to contact my local dealer as soon as possible. I first began contacting my local Honda dealers (Findlay Honda, Henderson, NV; Centennial Hills Honda; Honda West) in the Las Vegas, Nevada in March 2024. Each time, I was informed that none of the dealerships had the fuel pump and to call back in May 2024. I called in May 2024 and was instructed to call in July 2024. I called in July 2024 and was instructed to call in October 2024. I called in October 2024 and was instructed to call in November 2024. I called a week before Thanksgiving 2024 and was instructed to call in December 2024. Last week, I attempted to contact each dealership again about the fuel pump. The service departments of Findlay Honda, Henderson NV and Centennial Hills Honda would not answer the telephone. Honda West placed me on a fuel pump wait list. My vehicle has been on a recall list for almost a year with no repairs. I do not have any confidence that Honda will reimburse the cost of the repair if I utilize another mechanic.

  10. Other or unspecified, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Nov 21, 2024

    I own a 2019 Honda Accord purchased brand new in 2019. My family and I have been Honda owners forever. My current Honda Accord LX has 96,000 miles and recently my Emissions dashboard illuminated. I took my vehicle to Gillman Honda and to my surprise I have been advised the Turbocharger needs to be replaces and it will cost me $2,900.00. I'm also still on the waitlist for the Fuel Pump Recall Honda has failed to provide parts for the past year which is incurring me extra expenses on buying gas way more than I should. After reading multiple complaints, I'm convinced Honda is fully aware of the Turbocharger issues and have failed to initiate a recall. I'm very frustrated with the lack of transparency and accountability Honda is conducting regarding their manufacturing process. Why is a car at 5 years old experiencing a blow in a turbocharger and why is it taking over a year to have parts in place for a recall for fuel pump a car that could lead to extra expenses and damage to a vehicle? I am requesting Honda immediately provides the fuel replacement part needed for the recall for my vehicle and contact me for a definite date for repairs and reimbursement for this service that my car shouldn't need due to their failure in manufacturing. Please investigate their turbocharger system problems on their new cars.

  11. Fuel/propulsion system, Nov 17, 2024

    Recall 23V-858 has been going on since December 2023. There is no timeline to get it fixed. This is not being done in a timely manner. I cannot sell my car. It's also a safety issue not knowing if my may just not start one day.

    There has been a Honda recall out since December 2023 for Fuel Pump Impellers on 2018-2022 model year Accord 1.5L vehicles, but they still do not have replacement parts. My car is stalling to start in the mornings and I keep getting told to wait 2-3 weeks until they have replacement parts come in. This is taking way too long and I am now at risk of my vehicle not starting.

  13. Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 30, 2024

    My check engine light came on and an alert for an "emissions system problem" appeared. The engine made a revving sound when starting the car, and it felt like the vehicle might stall while driving to the mechanic. The local Honda dealership in Mount Kisco, NY was unable to diagnose the problem, but a trusted mechanic identified that the fuel pump under known recall was the issue. He ordered a new part from a different local Honda dealership in Yorktown, NY.

  14. Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 29, 2024

    It’s been nearly a year since the dealership promised to call me as soon as the part arrives. I haven’t received any updates since then. I attempted to schedule an appointment for a service related to the recalls, but they kept canceling it. According to them, they prioritize cars with symptoms, while my car is still drivable reason why my appointment was cancelled.

  15. Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 23, 2024

    Regarding NHTSA Recall Number 23V-858 I received a notice from Honda about the recall in May, 2024. Now, in October, 2024 there has been no news. The dealership, Pensacola Honda, says it is awaiting repair parts. How long does it take to complete a recall repair?

  16. Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 17, 2024

    Active recall regarding the fuel pump on my car

  18. Fuel/propulsion system, Oct 4, 2024

    I took my car to be repaired because it was stalling and misfiring while accelerating, and 11 indicator lights were one (check engine, vehicle stability system warning, brake system warning, adaptive cruise control system). Also, my car smelled like radiator fluid was leaking from somewhere. The local Honda dealer’s service department could not get me an diagnostic appointment for more than 30 day, so I took it to a nearby mechanic shop that I had used before. First, they thought it needed a tune up, so that was done, the indicator lights were reset, and I was in my way. After returning 2 days later (because they weren’t open on Sunday), the mechanic notified me that my fuel injector needed to be replaced. The mechanic contacted the local Honda dealer for parts, and the parts/service member told him that part number for my specific make and model was updated, and he gave the mechanic an updated part number. Also, the parts dealers said that the part was on back order nationally. This was in February of 2024. In August of this year, I was able to get an diagnostic appointment at a dealer in another city, and they provided an update. They reported that there was an issue with the fuel system that needed further diagnosis, and that it would cost me an additional near $400 to do and that they might have to keep my car overnight to complete the diagnostic. Since the start of this issue, I still sometimes experience misfiring and jerking when I try to accelerate.

  19. Fuel/propulsion system, Forward collision avoidance, Sep 27, 2024

    After fuel pump failed to open, top of this year my vehicle began to stall. I had the recall issue fixed 5/31/2024 by Honda dealer Staten Island. Just a couple days ago my vehicle started stalling again.

  20. Fuel/propulsion system, Sep 18, 2024

    I recieved a recall letter in Feb. saying that I needed ro wait until fall to have parts re-stocked. I called the Honda dealer to check and see if it is ready to have recall service, the person I spokes to said my car is not under recall. told the person that I received the recall letter in the past, but she said not all cars are under recall but only specific models, which mine was not included. I visited website that letter provided to check the eligibility, it does say, my car is under recall. I chatted with Honda about this and they were still saying mine is not under recall. I called to nhtsa hotline, the woman I spoke to, said yes. my car is under recall and told me to call the federal agency about this. This honda dealer was keep refusing the recall service, I have all the evidence of chat messages that they were lying. this need to be addressed because it is definetely related to someone's safety and they were ignoring of what they supposed to do.

  21. Fuel/propulsion system, Sep 16, 2024

    I was in the parking lot of my Honda dealership last night looking at new cars. I got in my 2019 Honda Accord to go home. I started the car and I was turning around when the engine stopped. I tried to get it started again for over an hour. The Honda Dealership is saying that the high pressure fuel pump has failed and it will be about $1600 for fix it. I am glad that it failed in the parking lot and NOT while I was driving it! There was no indications of any engine problems or bad performance. The vehicle has less than 37,000 miles. It is scary to think if this had happen in rush hour traffic.

    2 episodes of loss of engine power while driving on the highway. They were almost a year apart. At highway speeds, pressing down on the gas pedal did not accelerate or keep the car at the proper speed. The check engine light would flash as I pressed down the accelerator but the engine seemed to be misfiring and had loss of power. I had to drift to a safe location. The dealership could not identify or reproduce the problem.
