The ADAS system sensors popped up when I’m driving they will automatically slam on breaks if I’m not even close , now it’s having a hard time starting up

My car suddenly triggered automatic emergency brake even when there is no apparent reason or no blockage ahead of the car. This might cause rear side collision.
Forward collision avoidance, May 6, 2024
Vehicle ACC, Lane Departure system and collision mitigation braking system all turn off and there is no recall. This has caused unwanted braking at times as well. Overall, this system is completely non-functional in my vehicle and I am seeing this issue with other people all over the internet. There has been a new battery installed, multiple attempts finding a solution and nothing on the scanner comes up. WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN SET AS A RECALL? IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!

The car brakes hard while your driving and there is nothing infront of you without warning and hurts your stomach with the seatbelt. Also when passing over a train track the car beside me went over it and the rail got detected and made the car stop hard.I was with my girlfriend and she is pregnant and the seatbelt got stuck for a moment and since it broke over the train tracks and the force made us fly forward and the seatbelts hurt our stomach but good thing there was no accident or anyone behind me

My 2019 Honda Accord showed 10 warning lights. I took it to the dealer and they advised my fuel injectors were running hot and misfiring. Requiring the replacement of one injector totaling almost $2000The vehicle only has 65,000 miles. Though the vehicle seemed drivable, I had no idea if it would just stop running, and it required immediate intervention.
Forward collision avoidance, Apr 17, 2024
Vehicle has applied brakes automatically for no apparent reason at least 10 times in the 4 years we have owned the vehicle. 2 of those incidents was entering a freeway under acceleration from a on ramp putting us in a dangerous situation. It did not completely stop us before it released the braking system. It has also happened when exiting the freeway onto a off ramp numerous times automatically applying the brakes when nothing is in front of us or beside us. Last time it happened was last week while driving down a divided highway with no vehicle beside me or anywhere close in front of me a car was behind me and had to slow down. My car automatically applied the brakes and slowed me down and would not accelerate for about 10 seconds then they released and I was able to accelerate back to normal speed. To not it does not slam the brakes on and lock them up but it does start to slow you down quickly before allowing you to accelerate again. In the wrong situation this could cause a accident or a string of accidents.

Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 30, 2024
The fuel injectors failed at around 150,000 miles. The entire dash will light up with warnings and the car will loose power. I had it checked with the dealer and all of my maintenance's have been done at the dealer. My advisor said that it was due to the fuel injectors and that I would need to replace all of the injectors and the injector rack. That would cost approximately $1,500, but that I could still drive the car like that because my car is in great condition and I always take care of it. He said drive it, "But just don't punch it (accelerate) to much". My advisor knows that I commute to work, I drive about 150 miles per day and that was the advise that he gave me. At 167,000 miles, as I was driving to work, my car started to pull on me, as if it was chocking, I released the gas and continued, but I noticed that the car wasn't accelerating anymore. I pulled over to the shoulder on the freeway and turned off the car, I restarted the car to see if it would continue and it moved for about a mile and then it started pulling again. I called my employer to let them know that I was having car trouble and that I will not make it to work. I returned home and went straight to the dealership. I met with my advisor and he said, "We'll take a look an I'll get back to you by the end of the day." By the end of the day my advisor informed me that I had a blown head gasket and needed fuel injector replacements and that it would cost me around $5,000 to fix it. My question was, "Did this occur because I didn't repair the fuel injectors when you told me?" He said, "No." My thing is, if I have always took my car to the dealership for all maintenance work, how come they didn't know that my car was leaking or taking in liquid to the engine. I've spoken to other Honda owners with 2018 thru 2020 Honda Accord Sport 1.5 an 2.0 and at least 15 of them have told me that they've had fuel injector problems with their cars and 5 of them had blown head gaskets. Recall needed

2019 Honda Accord SRS (supplement restraint system) unit light came on. The dealership informed me that the SRS unit and the driver side airbags are defective. The dealership had the car for a week attempting to figure out the issue and replaced both the SRS unit and the driver side airbags. They gave me the car back and 15 miles later the SRS unit light came back on. There is a safety concern with this because this module is what tells the airbags to deploy properly. And the driver side airbag was defective as well.

Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 15, 2024
I was alerted that my car is part of a Safety Recall (2018-20 Accord 1.5T Fuel Pump Mtr Saf Recall Exp2) via a letter from Honda informing me that my car would need a part replaced, but that part would not be available until the Fall of 2024. When I reached out to the American Honda's Customer Support and Campaign Center stating my concerns of waiting so long with a defective vehicle, they recommended that I take my car to a Honda Dealership and run a diagnostic that would only be financially covered if my car were to indeed be declared "defective" for the recall and I would have to pay out-of-pocket if nothing was wrong with my vehicle. I asked "why would I have to pay for something that is not my fault", they said that I could just wait until I got a second letter when the replacement parts were ready and there is nothing else I could do to be proactive about this recall. I am disappointed with Honda for not being more proactive about this situation as not everyone can afford to pay for extras like diagnostics that may or may not be needed and just want to be able to drive my vehicle with the confidence that it is safe to put my family in and I cannot wait 6 months for a safe vehicle to drive.

There is a recall for fuel pumps and mines is making a loud noise.
Electrical system, Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, Mar 14, 2024
The car won't "turn over" or start because it's there is not enough or no fuel being delivered to the engine. Fuel is not being delivered significantly enough for the engine to start. Towed to the local dealership to have the fule pump replaced. However, when the parts neede to fix/replace the fuel pump are not avaliable for months. When they tried to have the part delivered they we told no because it could not be proven to he the problem. The repair manager told me they didn't have time, interest or the personel to continue the process and I had to tow it from the dealership to an independently local repair shop where it remains indefinitely.
