“All of a sudden I was driving and every light on the dash lit up the car starting stalling and shut off We replaced the spark plugs and the coils because they told us that was the problem and it's still doing the same thing quite a few people that are having this issue got a recall letter.. I never received a recall for this problem And every time I put my VIN number in it's saying zero recalls something is wrong this is not safe for me and my children”
NHTSA complaint #11634135, filed 2025-01, 72,174 miles“I was driving on the highway doing a normal lane change then all of a sudden lost all control of the vehicle. Loss of power and maneuverability. I went into the side ditch where my vehicle completely flipped over. I had just got the bcm recall on my vehicle 5 days prior. I cannot explain how, only that my vehicle lost complete control for no reason, it was as if I had turned my engine off while changing lanes.”
NHTSA complaint #11406792, filed 2021-04, 5,700 miles“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.”
