Dealer has stated that this issue may interfere with reliable over-the-air software updates, including any potential safety-related updates delivered through this OTA system.

While driving on interstate highway at normal highway speed car sun roof glass shattered without being impacted by anything to my knowledge. Due to the cover being pulled closed the glass did not rain down into passenger compartment but otherwise it could have.

Description: This is my second NHTSA complaint regarding unprompted automatic emergency braking in this vehicle. While driving at normal speed on [XXX], with no obstacle, pedestrian, or vehicle ahead, the vehicle's forward collision system activated without warning — audible alert sounded followed by the vehicle automatically applying hard braking and coming to an abrupt stop in the roadway. There was no obstruction, stopped traffic, or hazard present to justify the activation. I had 4 passengers in the vehicle at the time, including two children. The vehicle came to a sudden, forceful stop, creating a risk of rear-end collision from following traffic and a jolt risk to occupants. This is a recurring defect — I filed a prior NHTSA complaint for a similar unprompted braking event [reference no-XXX ] that resulted in a shoulder/neck injury to me as well as headache. Both incidents are documented on dash camera video and audio, including the audible system alert preceding each braking event.

2023 Honda Accord, 79,000 miles. Steering binds and feels sticky at highway speeds, making it dangerous to micro-adjust. Same issue as the 24V-744 Honda recall, but Accord is excluded20

I was driving on an interstate in Florida on vacation while using my GPS which was showing on my cars screen. As I was following directions the screen went blank. This caused me to not know which exit to take as it came across exits and while cars following behind me the lost of GpS guidance in the mist of it giving me a direction caused a panic. I use GPS systems all the time and that was the reason the car was purchased because of the gps system and screen. I have been having issues with this screen going out several times and have reported to my dealership and even wrote a letter to Honda’s main office. I was advised by the main office that this is a known issue and there is no fix for it at this time. I have been told by the dealership since I purchased the car in 2023 maybe after 2 months of having the car I experienced issues with this car and screen. It goes blank and volume controls stop working and all I’ve heard from them is it is a known issue when no fix at this time. This issue could have caused me to get into a bad accident due to face the screen going out without any warning while driving on an unknown interstate with vehicles driving between 70-80 miles per hour.

I have experienced phantom braking multiple times but it happened at the worst time yesterday & because of that my shoulder is hurting alot. I was driving on the road when suddenly car hit the brake without any warnings. This has caused whiplash and headache as well because of it. This phantom braking incident has happened many times just this time it was recorded on my dash cam.

Sticky and unresponsive steering accompanied by loud clicking in the steering rack and gear box.

The contact owns a 2023 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, smoke started coming from underneath the front driver’s side seat. The contact looked down and became aware that the front driver’s side seat belt anchor had caught fire. No warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the vehicle had been involved in a crash prior to the fire, and the front passenger’s side of the vehicle had crashed into rear left door of another vehicle. No injuries were sustained, and no medical attention was needed. The contact exited the vehicle and contacted the local Fire Department. The Fire Department arrived on the scene and extinguished the fire. A Police report was filed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.

Sticky steering at center position" Notchy/Clicking feeling when turning past center point"。（"A noticeable catch and clicking noise when steering wheel passes through the center position"）。"This failure causes inconsistent steering effort and poses a potential safety risk, especially for high-mileage commercial drivers like Uber."

The contact's fiancée owns a 2023 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the rear tires showed severe inner wear and damage due to a misalignment, requiring three sets of rear tires to be replaced within a year. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, who notified the manufacturer of the failure; however, the technical engineer denied assistance. The dealer informed the contact that the lower control arms needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. Additionally, the contact stated that the tire repair kit bottle cap detached while inflating a tire. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 26V366000 (Tires); which was associated with the tire repair kit failure. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 47,000.

I own a 2023 Honda Accord Touring Hybrid. At approximately 42,000 miles, all of the warning lights illuminated while driving. The warnings included Adaptive Cruise Control, Forward Collision Warning, Lane Departure Warning, Blind Spot Warning, Parking Collision Warning, and multiple other system alerts. At the same time, I experienced a loss of electric power steering assist, increased steering resistance, and clicking/popping noises coming from the steering rack. The Honda dealer diagnosed the vehicle with a failed Electric Power Steering (EPS) steering rack and quoted nearly $5,000 for the repair. A critical steering component should not fail at such low mileage. This is a serious safety concern because the failure affects the driver's ability to safely control the vehicle. Similar steering components have been recalled on other Honda models, but the 2023 Honda Accord has not been included. I believe this defect should be investigated before it results in crashes or injuries.

While driving my 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid, the vehicle suddenly displayed multiple warning messages, including a Check Engine Light, and immediately entered limp mode. Engine power was significantly reduced, making it difficult to accelerate and safely keep up with surrounding traffic. This unexpected loss of power created a potential safety hazard because the vehicle could not respond normally to throttle input. The vehicle was diagnosed by an authorized Honda dealership. The dealer confirmed Diagnostic Trouble Code (DTC) P2101 and determined that the throttle body assembly had failed. The throttle body assembly and gasket were replaced, and a software update was also performed before the vehicle could be safely driven again. I paid approximately $670.34 for the repair at the Honda dealership. After researching this issue, I found reports from other owners of recent Honda Accord Hybrid vehicles experiencing similar P2101 throttle body failures resulting in limp mode. I am submitting this complaint because an unexpected throttle body failure that causes a vehicle to enter limp mode while driving may present a safety risk, especially if it occurs in traffic or during highway driving. I believe this issue should be reviewed to determine whether it affects additional vehicles.

The car has continually asked to to be updated through the driver control center screen. IT states that this is a dealer update and must be brought in to have this done. Until this update is completed the above systems will not work. I have brought the car in for the lat 25k miles 4 oil changes and have been told each time that it has been fixed. It still has not been fixed, and the dealer is telling me there is nothing they can do. This is definitely a safety issue as these important systems are not working.

Before the collision, while turning left from a complete stop, the steering wheel suddenly became extremely stiff and would not turn normally. There were no dashboard warning lights (no EPS, brake, or hybrid warnings). The steering problem occurred before impact and contributed to the head-on collision.

Component/System: Integrated Control Module (ICM) CPU — software defect identified under NHTSA Recall 25V-785 (Honda Recall TN2). The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Safety Risk: While driving on a California highway, I attempted to accelerate to pass another vehicle and the car failed to accelerate normally — it did not respond with expected drive power. This is consistent with the recall defect, which states the ICM CPU can reset while the vehicle is in operation, causing the vehicle to lose drive power and increasing the risk of a crash. This occurred at highway speed with other vehicles present, creating an immediate danger. Dealer Confirmation: I have visited an authorized Honda dealership twice regarding this recall — once upon receiving the recall notification in November 2025, and again in January 2026 during a scheduled oil change. On both occasions, the dealer confirmed the recall was on file for my vehicle but stated they did not have the software or equipment available to perform the remedy. The repair has not been completed as of the date of this complaint, June 26, 2026 — more than seven months after the recall was issued. Inspections by Other Parties: The vehicle has not been inspected by police, insurance representatives, or other outside parties in connection with this issue. Warning Lamps or Prior Symptoms: No warning lamps or dashboard messages appeared prior to or during the acceleration failure incident. The recall defect relates to an i

There were no warning lamps or messages prior to the failure. My family was out of town, when the fire occurred. However, the neighbors were home and their home also sustained some damage. My home was a total loss. On June 16, 2026 I received a call while out of town that my home was on fire and it was a total loss. Statements from the neighbors and fire marshal were that the garage was on fire and then spread to the rest of the home. The only thing in the garage that could have started the fire was my Hybrid vehicle.

System Update Error TT04

Driver seat began to rock. Observing underneath, bolt with a t40 wide flat head fell out of the bracket that attaches the seat cushion frame to the seat frame.

The rearview mirror fell off while driving

My car started blinking the Check engine light when I am going 40-50 mph. Got the vehicle scanned and the code showed “misfire cylinder 4” so i replaced the spark plugs and the coil on cylinder 4. Vehicle ran fine for about 3 weeks. Same issue happened again. I did research and found that alot of honda vehicles with the 1.5 turbo has had head gasket issues. I took it to a mechanic and got it diagnosed. There was no coolant when they checked as well as put the camera down cylinder 4 and seen fluids in the cylinder

I have had my vehicle in the dealer on 4 or 5 occasions, where the issue persisted, where the steering wheel made a clicking noise. I was able to duplicate the issue for the dealer a few times, and they were unable to fix it. The dealer replaced the master cylinder, the steering rack was adjusted, and still the issue persists. After many trips to the dealer, I got sick and tired and got into an argument with the dealer, and the dealer refused to work on my car any longer. I am stuck now with a steering issue that appears to be affecting a lot of other and they refuse to help me get it fixed.

My 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid with only 16,000 miles on it has been having an intermittent steering problem for approx 2 months. I have seen this same issue reported by other 2023 Accord owners. When making a sharp turn, parking, etc. I hear a sort of clicking/tapping sound that seems to be coming from the front/steering rack of the car. Almost sounds like a gear needs lubricating. I reported this to my service technician today when my car was in for normal maintenance and they could not reproduce the issue. Based on other complaints, this is a manufacturer defect and needs to be recalled for my car. Thank you for your review of this.

EPS Steering rack assembly and gear box is making noises. Car was inspected by a licensed Honda repair center on 4/23/26 and was told that that this assembly will need to be replaced at a $4,900.00 estimate. This could put our family at risk if the steering or gear box fails during use. Vehicle has just over 50k miles. According to Honda's own "Tech Line Summary Article", dated 3/20/26, this is a known problem and effecting thousands of vehicles with no permanent solution.

I took my car in because the electric parking brake warning appeared while driving. I also looked it up and saw many others were having this issue. So basically Honda charged me for something that’s an ongoing Honda issue and passed it off as a glitch and cleared the codes. Clearly Honda needs to recall the 2023 accord because this isn’t safe and clearing the code isn’t taking care of the problem. Furthermore charging me for diagnosing this is completely wrong knowing this is not a problem only I am having. Honda needs a recall before there are serious accidents.

The contact owns a 2023 Honda Accord. The contact stated that after the vehicle was repaired under NHTSA Campaign Number: 25V785000 (Electrical System), the message "Updates Unavailable - TCN2 - Have Checked by Dealer" remained displayed. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who was unable to repair the vehicle and informed the contact that the manufacturer was aware of the failure and was currently seeking a fix to correct the failure. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 12,000.

OTA system keeps failing and needed to go to dealer every other week. The radio freezes and glitches. Yes I’ve been to dealer 3 times in the last 6 months about this issues.

The contact owns a 2023 Honda Accord. The contact stated that after taking the vehicle in for a check, the instrument panel was inoperative. The contact attempted to reboot the system, but the issue persisted. The contact stated that the steering gear box was failing, and that the steering wheel was firm, and the contact temporarily lost control of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to a dealer, but was not repaired because of the cost of the diagnostic test. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 56,853.

My automatic braking system randomly halted me to a stop in the middle of a clear road and almost caused the person behind me to crash into me even though they were back away from me a safe distance. This has happened several times now and it scares me a lot every time it happens. Makes me want to sell the car. I looked it up and saw that many other people online have had an issue with this feature. I also learned there’s no way for me to fully disable the feature which is frustrating. I can only turn it off manually each time I turn my car on. This feature is not safe and has put my life at risk way more times than it has been helpful.

When steering there is noise coming out. When parking or turning wheel all the way to one side it makes weird noise. I see so many complaints about this.

On December 9, 2023, while driving my brand new 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid Touring HPD package on the highway during snowy conditions at less than 50 mph less than 8000 miles on the odometer after my first oil change the automatic emergency braking (AEB) system suddenly and unexpectedly engaged with no obstacle, vehicle, or pedestrian ahead, causing the vehicle to skid uncontrollably and slam into a concrete highway barrier. The car was towed from the scene, and I was hospitalized for injuries sustained in the high-speed impact. The AEB component or system malfunctioned by activating without cause; it was inspected by police at the scene and I contacted Honda’s safety team to conduct an investigation. This unintended braking put my safety at extreme risk by inducing sudden deceleration and loss of control on a slippery highway, which could have endangered following traffic as well. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by a Honda dealer or independent service center since the vehicle was not repaired. Police inspected it at the crash scene and issued me a ticket for “driving too fast for conditions” despite my explanation of the sudden braking; no manufacturer inspection of the AEB occurred, though I contacted Honda’s safety team and they attributed it to not following the owner’s guidebook without further review. Prior to driving, all dashboard warning lights illuminated unexpectedly; I turned the vehicle completely off, restarted it, and the lights disappeared with

It is my understanding Honda issued a extended warranty on the air conditioning condenser for its Accord models from 2018-2022. I have a 2023 Accord and the exact same issue has happened on my car. Similar to the earlier problems with fuel pumps where a partial recall was extended to the same model built in later years, I am suggesting Honda needs to repeat the extended warranty to include 2023 models. I am bringing this issue to your attention in case others are having the same experience.

I was driving on the Freeway doing about 65 to 70 MPH and all of a sudden on the Dashboard a large orange brake light came on and the vehicle hit the brakes automatically almost causing an accident. I took it to the dealership and all they did was reset some computer board but said they couldn’t find anything wrong with it. If they couldn’t find anything wrong with the vehicle then why reset the computer board.

To Whom It May Concern, My 2023 Honda Accord (VIN: <Fill in red: VIN [XXX] >) has been disabled since January 27, 2026 due to a fuel system failure. The dealership falsely claimed diesel contamination, which I deny. Despite escalation to Honda executives and NJ Lemon Law action, the vehicle remains unsafe and unusable. Attached is documentation supporting my complaint (Master PDF: Camardo_Honda_Accord_Escalation.pdf). I request your immediate review and assistance to resolve this safety issue.

My car automatically braked almost causing the car behind me to rear end me for no reason.

Rear camber is set way to aggressive and wearing out the inside of tires VERY QUICKLY!! According to 2 different shops they have adjusted the camber as far as the factory part will allow with the only option is to buy a aftermarket camber arm to get more adjustment. I am on my 3rd set of tires with only 57000 miles. I went father then i should have on replacing the worn (inside of tire past the metal wire) without knowing it was that bad. Could have had a very serios blowout on rear. Dealer ship said none of this would be covered under warranty!! the wear started form the get go and might can get the 1st alignment information from the shop that performed the alignment. Other individuals I know they have accords and civics in the 23 and newer are having simular issues!! Pics in file are both rear tires that had been rotated 3 times in aprox 20k and alignment checked.

Had a light come on about the Electric power steering, Steering assist reduced see your dealer I know the hybrid had this problem but mine is just a gas model

The contact owns a 2023 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, there was an abnormal sound coming from under the passenger’s side dashboard. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed; however, the cause of the failure was not identified, and an oil change was performed. The vehicle was taken to another local dealer for a second opinion. The local dealer filed a claim with the manufacturer for the failure and related the issue to TSB: 24-055. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure; however, the claim was denied. The failure mileage was approximately 13,000.

This is a second formal supplemental complaint. Vann York Honda sold this car as new, but a Honda America provided Carfax proved it was a prior personal use vehicle. The car has catastrophic phantom braking, causing a physical friction rash on my skin. Multiple witnesses are now afraid to ride in the car. The vehicle has suspension failures documented by irregular tire readings. Despite an active federal recall, Flow Honda refused mandated repairs. During a prior headliner repair, Flow Honda returned the car with a collapsed headliner and a Maintenance Minder A127 code. The oil life dropped from 45% to 5% without added mileage, yet I was told to drive it. Weatherstripping has been replaced. Recall work for seatbelt (which came apart) and fire risk in the engine. Manager Chris Moore falsely claimed a brake warning was merely a remote start issue. He has also shows a lack of understanding of the NC lemon laws. I have recorded complaints from well under 24,000 miles. Flow Honda held the car for four months, then claimed they did not know it was there. They sent a text acknowledging the recall but failed to perform it, trying to ship the car back to me to hide its 120-day neglect. The car has lot rot, tire rot, and an open battery exposed since [XXX]. My insurance company ignored warnings of retaliation and forced the car back to Flow Honda. They recorded a medical diagnosis of a panic attack on my paperwork without medical expertise and falsely claimed I requested a collision sh

I was driving down the freeway and all of a sudden there was a spontaneous, loud-bang, and explosion-like shattering of my moonroof/sunroof. I didn't know what happened initially but heard glass shards sliding around the roof. I slid the cover slightly open and could see the shattered glass. I drove home and discovered a hole in the glass. Im attaching pictures of what I saw. I got home and searched online to see if anyone else has experienced this and found several articles referencing 2023 Honda Accord's and this issue. Including some class action law suits against Honda.

The front passenger seat is very low to a point where a deployed air bag Will hit the passenger in the face, hinders ability to breathe and cause injuries to the face, I took the vehicle to our local Honda Dealer to correct the problem because the car still under manufacture warranty the dealer didn’t even acknowledge the issue

My vehicle has an open safety recall 25V785 related to improper software programming of the Integrated Control Module CPU, which can cause loss of drive power while driving. I brought the vehicle to an authorized Tempe Honda dealer (8030 South Autoplex Loop, Tempe, AZ 85284) to have the recall completed. The dealer confirmed the recall is a software ICM update, but refused to perform the recall unless I paid approximately $981 plus tax to replace the original OEM audio head unit. The dealer stated that over-the-air infotainment updates were previously declined and claimed this prevents completion of the safety recall. The recall was not completed. The vehicle remains unrepaired for a known safety defect that can result in loss of drive power while in operation. Dealer refusal was documented in writing.

To Whom It May Concern, I am submitting this complaint to report a serious vehicle safety issue involving a Honda vehicle that was under a lease agreement. From the start of the lease, the vehicle suffered from repeated malfunctions of its safety and proximity sensors. These issues were reported, and the vehicle was taken multiple times to an authorized Honda dealership. Despite these efforts, the problem was never resolved. I later discovered that the vehicle had an active safety recall that was never disclosed to me, even though the vehicle had been serviced at the dealership on several occasions. This failure to inform me of a recall represents a significant safety concern. Subsequently, the vehicle was involved in an accident that resulted in a total loss. I firmly believe that the unresolved sensor failures and the lack of recall disclosure played a role in this incident. I am submitting this report so that NHTSA may investigate this matter and determine whether there is a broader safety issue affecting other vehicles. Thank you for your attention. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While coming to a stop on a slight incline, the brakes failed to stop the car, brakes were applied and initially slowed the car but when the slight incline was reached the brakes would not engage and the idle of the car move it forward and still the brakes would not engage. I had to put the car into neutral then park to stop. After the incident the brakes seemed to work fine. Nonetheless this is a major issue. There were no warning lights or any indication that something was malfunctioning. There were no indications after the incident either that anything malfunctioned. I will be taking the car to the dealer ASAP to have checked. We lightly tapped a truck that was in front of us on the slight incline - no obvious damage to either vehicle ( need to verify in daylight) - no injuries to anyone in the incident. If we were traveling faster there could have been serious injury or if there was a pedestrian there could have been serious injury.

The vehicle's suspension is excessively stiff and harsh since new, transmitting all road imperfections, bumps, and irregularities directly to the driver and passengers, causing discomfort and fatigue. Additionally, there is abnormal noise (clunking/rattling/creaking/popping) from the steering rack area, especially when turning the steering wheel at low speeds, over bumps, or when stationary. The suspension components and steering rack assembly are available for inspection upon request. This condition affects safety by causing driver fatigue, reduced comfort/control on uneven roads, and potential distraction from steering noise indicating a possible developing failure in the steering system. The problems have been inspected and repair attempted by authorized Honda dealers on multiple occasions, but the issues persist and have not been resolved. The vehicle or component has been inspected by dealer service centers.

Describe the Safety Issue: My 2023 Honda Accord (VIN: 1HGCY1F28PA010141) stalled in traffic due to electrical system failure. A certified Honda technician found undisclosed non-factory wiring, exposed wires, removed aftermarket alarm components, BCM communication failure, and multiple hard codes that cannot be cleared. The vehicle has serious electrical defects that affect engine communication and safety systems. These conditions create a risk of stalling, electrical fire, loss of power, and loss of control while driving. The defects were present at the time of purchase but were not disclosed. When did the issue begin? Stalled in traffic and warning lights appeared immediately after purchase. Is the problem reproducible? Yes. Hard codes and electrical malfunctions reappear after clearing. Has the vehicle been inspected? Yes. Inspected at Team Gillman Honda North. Technician documented unsafe wiring, BCM issues, and recommended teardown with an estimated repair cost of $2,686.86. Has the manufacturer been contacted? Yes, through Honda dealership service. They confirmed the defects are not normal wear and are related to altered wiring. Has the dealer been contacted? Yes. The selling dealer refused assistance and told me not to contact them further.

VALVE COVER GASKET LEAK

While driving, my 2023 Honda Accord Hybrid suddenly experienced a multi-system failure affecting: Road Departure Mitigation System Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Hill Start Assist Electric Power Steering System Brake System (“Brake performance may be reduced”) All warnings appeared within seconds. The vehicle is available for inspection, and the incident is documented with multiple photographs. In addition to the system failures, the vehicle unexpectedly began to lose power while I was driving, causing it to slow down rapidly in active traffic. This created an extremely hazardous situation, including: Risk of being rear-ended since my vehicle slowed without warning Reduced steering assist Reduced braking performance Loss of stability control Inability to accelerate out of the way This combination could easily have caused a serious collision. I later learned that there is an active recall related to the systems that failed on my vehicle. However: I never received any communication from Honda, no letter, no email, no notice of any kind. I am extremely unhappy and frustrated about this. Had Honda informed me of the recall: I would have scheduled service immediately I would NOT have driven the car under normal conditions I would NOT have been exposed to this dangerous situation on the road The absence of recall notification directly contributed to my being put in a potentially life-threatening situation. A recall notification exists for a re

Started the car and the system was not booting up Properly. Had to restart the car a few times for the system to boot up properly. Took 3 min to start up after restarting the car. No error codes just major lag and delay. Car was updated to the most current update and no new updates were available at the moment. Bluetooth also has a hard time connecting to mobile devices. Engine makes weird sound when accelerating on the highway in eco mode. Sometimes feels like misfires when accelerating. When entering the car from outside the seat sometimes does not adjust back to the original position stays at the extended position it does when getting out of the car. Requires me to adjust my seat consistently.

The infotainment system, audio, and warnings about parking collisions and lane keep assist are glitchy. The audio skips and stutters making hands free impossible. It makes commuting dangerous. Honda Corp and the dealership are saying there is no recall and nothing they can do with no eta on a fix. They attempted a OTA and manual software update but could not complete it. They said it is a known issue.

Summary of Incident: For approximately two years, my vehicle has experienced random electrical issues. All dashboard warning lights will flash at random times. When I take the vehicle to the dealership (Bell Honda), the problem disappears before it can be diagnosed. On September 27, 2025, and again on September 28, 2025, the vehicle completely stopped and shut off while I was driving. It would not restart. The hazard lights were stuck on and could not be turned off. This left me stranded and in a dangerous situation. After approximately 2-3 minutes, the vehicle was able to restart, but numerous warning lights remained illuminated on the dashboard. I had the vehicle tested with a diagnostic tool at an AutoZone, but no apparent issues were found in the system. Additional Information: This is an ongoing and unresolved safety issue that Honda has failed to address. This electrical problem, which causes the vehicle to shut down unexpectedly, is a significant safety hazard. This issue is in addition to another ongoing problem with the remote start system, which Honda has refused to diagnose and fix. Consequences and Concerns: The unexpected shutdown of the vehicle while in operation is extremely dangerous and could lead to a serious accident. The inability to use hazard lights properly further increases the risk to myself and other drivers. The intermittent nature of the problem makes it difficult to diagnose, but the consistent occurrence poses a serious risk that requires immedia
