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.

The issue I have been having since i bought the car has been a wobble/vibration from the front end. took the vehicle in to planet honda rt22 in union nj, where they told me my factory rims where bent which was false. i ended up selling my factory rims and buying a pair that i liked same size as factory. i put new wheels and tires on same problem. i then went back to the dealer ship for a second time told me they heard the bearings and proceeded to replace them as i approved the work. received vehicle drover for a couple days same issue went back for a third time and the technician stated my rims are bent again. i then became very upset as to if the tech knew how to diagnose a vehicle correctly. took car back drove it for almost a year with the vibration and wobble got car aligned several ties since the car started drifting and pulling both ways. went and took vehicle in to my personal mechanic where he showed me the front wheel bearings and intermediate shaft and bearing are bad. went back to honda on [XXX] with repeat concern with the same issue. took the dealership 5 hours to assign my vehicle to a tech that has no clue on how to inspect a vehicle bad for business. so dealership got back to me and stated that since vehicle was lowered they where not going to replace or fix the issues that are present i bought the vehicle used certified from them at 23k miles and have been having this issue since vehicle was purchased. i drive my wife and my 3 year old daughter in this car and with a car that has no control or stability and puts my family at risk just because they dont want to do a warranty job. i do have proof of bearings being replaced so they say also have proof of head gasket failure injector failure high pressure pump failure in tank pump failure. just have no way to upload.

1. The AEB system activated on a clear road with no visible obstacles in sight. The car showed "Brake" message and braked by itself. Fortunately there was no car immediately behind me, so there was no collision. 2. While parked, with the keys untouched, the truck opened by itself. This has happened on more than one occasion.

The Automatic Braking System (ABS) engaged suddenly and without cause to engage. The vehicle is available for inspection. The sudden stop while traveling at approximately 40 mph startled me (driver) and could have caused a rear end collision. The vehicle was taken to the local Honda dealer. They indicated I should disable the ABS when using the vehicle. The actual ABS system was not inspected by the dealership or any other individual. There were no warnings prior to the occurrence although the dashboard displayed the standard BRAKING warning when the ABS engages. This occurred just once at which point I have subsequently disabled the ABS whenever driving.

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.
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.

I was driving about 45 mph about 10:45 AM. Suddenly, my car braked on its own. The message, "emergency brake", flashed on the screen. This same problem happened on August 2, 2024. There was no vehicle in front of or behind me. Neither was there any vehicle beside me. I am very concerned about my safety in driving this car. I have reported this problem before. On August 5, Honda dealership did a component diagnostic check. They said they found nothing. But this problem has occurred twice now. Something is wrong. I REPEAT: I am very concerned for my safety in driving this car.

The automatic braking occurs when there are no impediments to forward motion. It has occurred on a periodic basis at least 15 times.
Air bags, Other or unspecified, Aug 29, 2024
"Supplemental Restraint System Problem. See Your Dealer" and the air bag warning light was turned on multiple times. Upon turning off and restarting the vehicle, the warning lights are not turned on sometimes. But at random times, the failure reoccurred persistently. Noticed that my vehicle has 5 different Recalls but my VIN only has one recall needed(?). Managed to figure out that the SRS system is faulty due to the front passenger's belt buckle being stuck sometimes. Dealership won't let me replace the belt buckle for free since my VIN is not part of the recall process. Faulty SRS won't work if accident occurs and driver is at the risk always. Also, during driving there is a weird struting noise that happens behind the steering wheel. Can't seem to make out what or where the noise is coming from.
