“My reverse camera pulls up on the screen as I've been driving for well over 30 mins and my RPM gauge has went out and goes blank every other hour or so. Happened about 7 times this past month. Pretty dangerous because when the following car function is on it immediately stops works, I've swerved to avoid accidents. This is all happening as I drive”

“I purchased my Honda Accord sport last month and had no issues 5,000 miles on it. But as I've been driving it the brakes are not operating as they should way too sensitive and is not a smooth process as it should be the slightest pressure makes it jolt forward. On idle my rpms start to lower then go up I don't believe this should be happening. I don't know if it's a vacuum leak, fuel pump or spark plugs but there is an issue.”

“On the highway going 75mph the collision mitigation beeped and locked up the brakes dropping my speed below 50mph before letting off. There was a car in the lane to the right of me on a straight section of the highway but was not moving into my lane. Luckily there was no one behind me.”

“My rear break pads are wearing faster than the front break pads. At a 35k miles I had to get new break pads for my car. I drive a lot in the city. It is rare that I take long roads. Probably around 29k miles in the city and 6k miles on the road.”

NHTSA complaint #11386788, filed 2021-01, 35,000 miles

“We leased a Honda Accord in july, 2019. We are a Honda family. Before the accident on january 10 of this year, we noticed several unusual happenings. The trunk lid would open while driving after being securely latched. It also would begin braking unnecessarily. The unfortunate incident occurred when the driver drove into a parking space in front of a local retail store traveling slowly when the Honda inexplicably accelerated forward very quickly. …”
