“I was driving on the highway in my new 2019 Honda Accord which is just at it's 3768 miles, and the adaptive cruise control system, collusion mitigation braking system and road departure system failed. It showed a message to take it to the dealer. Upon restarting the problem seems to be solved.

NHTSA complaint #11339502, filed 2020-07, 9,000 miles

“With only less than 800 miles on the car, my 2019 Honda Accord vsa modulator (which was diagnosed by the dealership) failed. I felt the car begin to bog on the highway right before we were on the exit. Then, the gas pedal stopped working properly and the car lost speed. I would press hard on the gas pedal and the car would take about 3 seconds before it started to move forward, jerking in the direction I intended it to go. After struggling a little while, I luckily pulled over and called a tow truck to send my car to the dealership. I felt that I was very lucky to be able to safely pull over. …”
