NHTSA complaint #11396495, filed 2021-02, 35,000 miles“This is in regards to NHTSA recall 18v-629/mfr id v2f (rear camera). After being repaired once under this recall, the rear camera failed a second time! The service department at the dealership diagnosed it as the same problem. When they learned that I had already had it repaired once (by them), they contacted american Honda. Honda then required me to pay for a brand new camera for my 2018 Accord which was less than 2 years old.”
NHTSA complaint #11324947, filed 2020-05, 35,800 miles“When starting my car, I am receiving several warning even after taking my car to the dealer. All issues were cleared but now only 4 days later, the same warnings from the safety system is showing.”
NHTSA complaint #11387400, filed 2021-01, 66,000 miles“The rear brakes are horrible. They wear so quick. This is my 3rd Honda Accord and I’ve never replaced brakes this much on any Accord I’ve ever owned. Back tires also wear really fast. The rear brakes squeal really bad and makes squealing noises when I’m driving. No brakes are being applied but the noise continues. I’ve had this car for 3 years and I’ve changed brakes 3 times which is ridiculous.”
NHTSA complaint #11640633, filed 2025-02“When the adaptive cruise control is engaged there are times that the vehicle will brake by itself when there is no vehicle in front of me. I drive 52 miles one way to work and then home daily. This happens at least once almost every time that it is used. As for the blind spot warning it randomly will go on and off saying an object is near especially when parked at red lights with none of the vehicles moving around me.”
