This stops all these assistive features from responding if there were a hazard. Please look into this because Honda is not responsive to the recall issue.”
NHTSA complaint #11726958, filed 2026-03“This is the third Accord I've owned, and none of them have been issue-free, but this one (2020) is the worst. I bought this car in March of 2021 with only 6 miles on it. Within a week it started to throw occasional notifications, which I called the dealership and asked about. They assured me that it was just a hiccup and to bring it in for a factory reset. They performed this reset, and the car appeared to be fine after that. …”
