Las siguientes son quejas reportadas por consumidores y presentadas ante NHTSA. Son alegaciones no verificadas y no son prueba de que exista algún defecto.
While driving, my Check Engine light cam on suddenly, along with my entire dashboard lighting up with all kinds of warning lights. At that moment, the engine ran very rough while attempting to push the accelerator pedal to maneuver out of traffic, feeling like there was no power. With that, I also noticed the temperature gauge start to increase towards the hot limit, though there was no venting of steam from the radiator. I stopped my car on the side, turned the car off, and waited u til it cooled down before attempting to start it again. When restart after a period of time, I noticed what smelled like coolant coming from the exhaust. I have not been able to bring the vehicle to a mechanic to diagnose the issue just yet.
NHTSA #11741073
My car has under 100k miles and has regularly been serviced throughout its life. The head gasket failed due a known design flaw.
NHTSA #11738250
Blown head gasket, white smoke from the exhaust. Loss of power. All warning lights on the dash started blinking. Dealer gave estimate of $6500.
NHTSA #11737482
On 5-11-26, I was driving and the vehicle just stopped in the middle of the roadway. I couldn’t go in drive or reverse, just sitting with engine running.No warning lights, no noise, or anything that would let me know there was a problem. Cars was coming up behind me and in front. I called a towi truck, and a police officer. The officer pushed me off the road way, and the car was towed.
NHTSA #11739678
The vehicle began experiencing engine performance problems including rough idling, vibration at startup, and a check engine light. Diagnostic testing indicated a misfire condition. Further inspection suggested coolant intrusion into the engine, consistent head gasket failure. The issue appears to involve the engine cooling and combustion sealing system (head gasket), which is a critical internal engine component. When the problem occurs, the engine runs poorly and may lose power, increasing the risk of stalling or failure while driving, which could create a safety risk in traffic. The problem was confirmed through diagnostic testing at a service center. Compression testing and engine diagnostics were performed, and results pointed toward internal engine issues. No repair has yet resolved the underlying problem. Warning indicators included the check engine light, engine vibration, and rough running conditions, which appeared prior to diagnosis. The issue has been observed consistently since symptoms first began and has not been fully resolved.
NHTSA #11733899
On April 14th, 2026 we were driving on the road, the car overheated. We shut it off, sat for a few minutes. Started driving again and had to sit in roadwork, within 1 minute the car started to overheat again. We pulled into the gas station, checked coolant levels, all fine. We let the car sit for 20 minutes or so, we tried to turn the car on and the engine started sputtering and all dash lights came on. We got the car towed to a shop, they looked over the car and told us that coolant had leaked into the cylinders and the head gasket was blown but there was no leak in any of the coolant areas. They quoted us over $7000. So we are out of a car while it’s at the shop waiting to get fixed.
NHTSA #11732176
Head gasket 2 has failed on my vehicle.
NHTSA #11729563
head gasket failure with less than 80,000 miles.
NHTSA #11726690
The vehicle's head gasket failed prematurely, resulting in coolant intrusion into the engine cylinders and combustion chamber. This caused the engine to unexpectedly overheat while driving at highway speeds, creating a severe safety hazard and loss of acceleration in active traffic. Additionally, it had a very rough idle when starting.
NHTSA #11738652
The contact owns a 2019 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed the vehilce intermediately misfired due to oil leak. No warning lights were illuminated The vehicle was taken to the local where it was diagnosed the head gasket needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 136,000.
NHTSA #11736267
My 17 year old drives this car and has suddenly stalled and gone into limp mode 3 separate times (twice on busy highway) with no warning or codes provided. Most recently the vehicle alerted of overheating. After a couple trips to mechanic it was determined that head gasket is going out. It seems that this is a very common problem with this vehicle and an extreme safety hazard. Especially with young drivers as it sent my daughter into panic and nearly caused accident on initial breakdown.
NHTSA #11730832
I own a 2019 Honda Accord 1.5L with 112,985 miles. The vehicle developed a blown head gasket with coolant leaking into Cylinder 3. The failure was first confirmed via a combustion leak (CTR) test performed by an independent Honda specialist (Hond-Auto Specialist) on March 2, 2026, and later confirmed by an authorized Honda dealership (Vandergriff Honda, [XXX] ) via borescope inspection on March 23, 2026. Repair estimate is $4,799.81. This is a known defect. American Honda Motor Co. issued two internal Priority/Action Required memos to all Honda Service Managers and Advisors — April 2023 and August 2024 — confirming they were actively investigating this identical head gasket failure on 2018-2022 Honda Accords equipped with the 1.5L engine. Despite this internal investigation spanning multiple years, Honda has not issued a recall. A federal class action lawsuit [XXX] v. American Honda Motor Co., Inc.) has been filed alleging Honda knew of this defect before these vehicles were sold. I am requesting NHTSA investigate and compel Honda to issue a formal recall for all affected 2018-2022 Honda Accord 1.5L vehicles.

NHTSA #11726805
I was taking my wife’s 2019 Honda Accord into a dealership for a factory recall with a fuel pump issue. After I dropped it off, I got a phone call, letting me know that they had some bad news and that the cars third cylinder had failed due to a blown head gasket and coolant leaking into the cylinder. There has never been a check, engine, light or code or sign of any kind of issue with this vehicle up to this point I have it regularly serviced at Honda dealerships after doing some research. This seems to be a recurring issue with people in this make and model of Honda Accord with the 1.5 T engine. I would like to have someone contact me regarding the expense related to this repair as I believe it should not be on the owner to cover such cost when it is a recurring and known issue with this vehicle.
NHTSA #11716047
Approximate date (around January 2026), location (e.g., Newburgh, NY area), and circumstances (e.g., during normal driving). No crash/injury mentioned in my case, but note if it stranded I, required towing, or felt unsafe (e.g., potential for sudden power loss). While driving, all dashboard warning lights came on suddenly. The vehicle experienced rough running/misfires. Dealer diagnosed low coolant, pressure tested the system, and confirmed coolant intrusion into cylinders 2 and 3 due to head gasket failure. This required full head gasket replacement (parts/labor ~$4,567 total before any goodwill). No external leaks noted initially. Concerned this could cause engine stall/overheat while driving, posing a safety risk.” Dashboard lights, possible misfire codes (if any DTCs like P0302/P0303 were pulled), low coolant without visible leaks. dealer diagnosis (Morehead Honda? from Eric Koller), repair done/recommended, cost, and that American Honda provided 35% goodwill (shows it’s out-of-warranty but recognized issue) Only 91000 miles on the vehicle.
NHTSA #11720728
I own a 2019 Honda Accord equipped with the 1.5L turbocharged engine. At approximately [142,000] miles, the vehicle began overheating and losing coolant with no visible external leaks. A Honda dealership diagnosed the vehicle with a blown head gasket caused by coolant intrusion into the engine. The repair cost quoted was several thousand dollars. Honda has denied goodwill assistance dates DEC 16, 2025 at 1:35PM, despite documented maintenance and the widespread nature of this issue in Honda 1.5L turbo engines. This failure occurred under normal driving conditions and presents a safety concern due to sudden overheating, loss of engine power, and potential engine failure while driving. I believe this is a known design defect affecting multiple Honda vehicles, and Honda has failed to properly disclose or remedy the issue.
NHTSA #11705370
Car started loosing power and fouling spark plugs 2 and 3. Took it to dealer shop and head gasket was bad.
NHTSA #11706460
I am the original owner of a 2019 Honda Accord Hybrid that I have taken to Envision Honda of Milpitas. I have been consistently maintaining according to Honda’s recommended service schedule. No prior issues were noted. What happened to it is beyond normal wear and tear (failed head gasket). My car only had 78,731 miles on it when incident happened. I did not have any concerns with the vehicle until 11/12/2025 while driving on Freeway. On 11/12/2025, while commuting home from work in the evening on the freeway, all warning lights came on (10/10 lights, including the check engine light). The vehicle could not exceed 50 mph on freeway, and began rumbling. The vehicle had no prior issues. I exited the freeway with hazard lights activated and contacted AAA for assistance. I took my car to Envision Honda of Milpitas the next day (11/13/2025) was informed that the head gasket was blown off. "Cylinder leak down test done and found head gasket is blown on chamber 1 causing the coolant to leak inside the combustion chamber and causes cylinder to misfire. Recommend to perform teardown and inspection, head gasket replacement and re-check." It was dangerous as I was not able to speed more than 50 mph in the freeway while other cars were going fast. I am currently pregnant and was scared.
NHTSA #11705939
It’s started at 80,000 miles when my check engine light came on and it give a code P0302 So I change the spark plugs but when I replace it with the new one the code came but the code came off and after a few days later it came back on and it throw the same code. I believe that my head gasket is not good.
NHTSA #11734550
On 5/12/2025 at 104,385 miles I brought my 2019 Accord Hybrid Touring into the local Honda dealer for recommended services that populated in the maintenance minder. It was a larger service plugs, coolant flush, brake fluid flush. Early November of 2025 at around 115K miles I had a warning message appear that said engine temperature critical. I checked the overflow reservoir and the coolant level was in operating range. The next day I got the same message, waited for the engine to cool. I took the radiator cap off and added about 1/2 gal of Honda coolant. I proceeded to monitor coolant levels occasionally adding coolant. There were no external coolant leaks. I dropped the vehicle off at Wilde Honda on 12/8/2025 and after testing the system they indicated that there were coolant leaks in 3 of the 4 cylinders due to a failed head gasket. They also said the radiator might be leaking out of the top seam but couldn’t know for sure. The immediate failure of a head gasket could allow the vehicle to stall out while driving. I had the head gasket, timing chain and radiator replaced at 117,302 miles at a cost of $4200. Head gasket failure at this mileage and this brand is unheard of except when you look at the model years with this same design. There was a class action suit on the turbo charged models but more and more consumers are noticing failures with the non turbo hybrid engine as well. Honda is stating that there is no issue with the head gasket in the Hybrid models.
NHTSA #11707955
Blown head gasket, car never overheated. Suddenly lost power in highway and car died. Dealership is stating blown head gasket. Seems to be a common issue.
NHTSA #11699505
I have a 2019 Honda Accord sport 1.5T that has a blown head gasket. I took it to the dealer and opened a case with Honda through their good will program, but was recently denied because they claim there was no manufacturer defect after the dealership inspected it. There seems to be a lot of people that are having the same issues with this engine, and there are a couple lawsuits against Honda regarding it. The car was inspected at a Honda dealership and they diagnosed it as a blown head gasket and quoted the repair of $5200. A case was opened with Honda corporate through their Goodwill program, but was recently denied as not a fault of the manufacturer. The car overheated on 10/10/25 while driving, potentially leading to engine damage
NHTSA #11697667
My head gasket blew in my car while driving on a highway, causing the car to jerk and completely die on me and it was unable to be restarted. My cylinder walls are scored and my head is completely ruined. It was a safety risk due to me being in the middle of the highway and having no control of the car as it died. It is also the second time the head gasket has blown since having the vehicle less than 3 years.
NHTSA #11695484
Why the 2019 Honda Accord Turbocharger Deserves a Class Action Lawsuit Many 2019 Honda Accord owners equipped with the 1.5L or 2.0L turbocharged engines have experienced serious and recurring issues with their turbochargers and related engine systems. These problems often appear prematurely and result in expensive repairs, performance loss, and potential safety risks — all of which suggest a manufacturing or design defect that Honda has failed to properly address. 1. Widespread Turbocharger Failures A large number of owners have reported: •Turbocharger failure or malfunction well before 100,000 miles. •Loss of engine power, whistling noises, or “limp mode” warnings. •Excessive oil consumption and contamination caused by turbo seal leaks. These are not isolated incidents — they indicate a pattern of premature component failure. 2. Manufacturer Awareness Without Proper Remedy Honda has issued technical service bulletins (TSBs) acknowledging certain turbo-related problems, but no recall or extended warranty has been offered to cover affected owners. This shows awareness of the issue but a lack of full accountability. 3. Potential Safety Risk When the turbo fails, the vehicle can suddenly lose power — especially dangerous during highway driving or merging. This transforms a mechanical issue into a potential safety hazard. 4. Financial Burden on Owners Turbocharger repairs can cost $2,000–$4,000+, often out of pocket since Honda claims these are not “defects.” Many drivers are left paying for repairs on vehicles that should not experience such failures this early. 5. Possible Breach of Warranty and Consumer Protection Laws
NHTSA #11695553
While driving my 2019 Honda Accord, the engine began misfiring and losing power. A diagnostic scan showed misfire codes (P0300–P030X). The issue was traced to coolant leaking into the combustion cylinder due to a head gasket defect. This caused engine hesitation, reduced acceleration, and risk of stalling while in traffic. I have learned that Honda has issued a Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) for this issue, but no recall. This is a serious safety concern because loss of power or stalling could cause an accident, especially at highway speeds or during turns/intersections. The repair is extremely costly for owners, and the defect appears to be widespread in 2018–2019 Accord models with the 1.5L turbo engine. This should be investigated and addressed as a recall to protect drivers.
NHTSA #11685056
Vehicle Information: Make/Model/Year: 2019 Honda Accord VIN: [XXX] Mileage at time of issue: ~70,000 miles Engine: 1.5L Turbo (if different, update before submitting) Dealership: Capitol Honda San Jose, California Complaint Summary: Engine misfire, rough running, and head gasket failure allowing coolant into cylinders. Details of the Problem: At around 70,000 miles, my 2019 Honda Accord began running rough and misfiring. Our independent mechanic scanned the vehicle and found failure codes for cylinders 2 and 3. The spark plugs and ignition coils were replaced, but the car continued to run poorly and the misfires persisted. We then took the vehicle to Capitol Honda in San Jose, CA. The dealership performed a diagnostic inspection and a borescope test, confirming coolant intrusion in the combustion chambers. They diagnosed the vehicle with a blown head gasket, noting visible coolant in cylinders 2 and 3. This car has been carefully maintained, never overheated, and serviced on schedule. Head gasket failure at this relatively low mileage is abnormal and appears consistent with defects reported by other Honda owners involving turbocharged 1.5L engines. This condition can cause rough idling, loss of power, and potential engine stalling, creating a safety risk while driving. Repair costs are significant and may indicate a systemic defect in this engine design. Requested Action: Please investigate head gasket and coolant intrusion failures in 2018–2022 Honda Accord models, especially those with the 1.5L turbo engine, as this issue appears to be increasingly common and poses a risk of sudden engine failure.

NHTSA #11693661
Head gasket failure was noted and happened at about 95000 miles. Crack in a cylinder lead to leaking of coolant and caused misfires and check engine. Was let know that if ignored engine could “expire” at a random time if not dealt with asap could have lead to a crash, injury, or harm others or property. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The problem was confirmed by dealer and partially before dealer by independent mechanic. Vehicle was inspected by dealer and trusted independent mechanic. Zero warning about failure up until failure. Vehicle entered safety crawl mode when engaged in any throttle with resistance up hill or on flat over 20 mph. First appeared just shy of 95000 miles. A known issue in many many of this specific make and model of car with varying years.

Th head gasket failed in 2019 Honda Accord , it kept misfiring , causing vehicle to not run and shut down . After the dealership fixed the head gasket , it had now caused the turbo to mess up which the dealership said wasn’t covered . It was taken to Honda dealership
NHTSA #11699066
I have been driving my car and it won’t accelerate and it’ll be in traffic and I’m afraid I’m going to get into a wreck or break down in the middle of the road. I can hear fluid releasing and when we looked into it, I was losing coolant and looks like it may have vans going into oil. I can’t afford to get this fixed. Now my husband is affected by the government shutdown and it also seems like no one will fix it. I can go to dealership but I’m paying so much every time and it’s so hard. I need this vehicle for work and I can’t drive it. There’s been a couple incidents. I can’t pin point the exact date. I take it to the shop and I’m being told it was something else. I get that fixed and I have been up to date on maintenance of the vehicle. What can I do to get some kind of assistance?
NHTSA #11693986
2019 Honda Accord 1.5L turbo has confirmed cracked head gasket at 94,000 miles verified by certified mechanic. No prior warning light indicator. Car began misfiring and jerking while driving and was unable to accelerate. Took several weeks before the dash displayed any warning light indicator. After doing research, we were made aware there is a class action lawsuit against Honda Motor Company for this being a known issue in 2018-2022 Accords and it was never disclosed or addressed properly by Honda. This is a major safety concern as the car can shut off while driving, jerk, shake and lack acceleration.
NHTSA #11680292
Component or System Failed: The head gasket appears to have failed, leading to coolant leaking into cylinder 4. This has been confirmed by two separate service centers. The vehicle is currently available for inspection if needed. Safety Risk: The failure caused engine misfires and dashboard warning lights to activate while driving, which could have led to a sudden loss of power or control. I had to pull over and restart the vehicle to regain drivability, which put my safety and that of others at risk. Reproduced or Confirmed by a Dealer or Service Center: Yes. The issue was first diagnosed by Honda of Sumner, who initially suspected a compression issue. Their master mechanic later confirmed it was likely a head gasket failure. A second opinion from Greg’s Japanese Auto confirmed the diagnosis and provided photos showing coolant in the cylinder. Inspected by Manufacturer or Others: Yes. The vehicle was inspected by Honda of Sumner and Greg’s Japanese Auto. No inspection has been done by police or insurance representatives. Warning Lamps or Symptoms Before Failure: Yes. After a recent service (which included an AC repair, fuel pump recall, and oil change), I experienced two misfires in cylinder 4 within 24 hours. All dashboard warning lights came on during one of the incidents. These symptoms began four days after the service. Additional Context: I was quoted $8,100 for the head gasket repair by Honda. I believe this issue could have been detected earlier during the diagnostic service. I’ve since learned of a class action lawsuit involving this exact issue in my vehicle’s generation, which makes me concerned this is a known defect.
NHTSA #11677083
Took my accord into service due to engine light warning, vibration on start up and to get the recall fixed. Was informed that my head gasket was misfiring and needed to be replaced, and was quoted $4515.37. The vehicle had been well maintained and low mileage at 72,000. This seems to be an issue with the 1.5 Turbo from 2018 to 2022 based on the online research. I decided to trade my vehicle in for a new one, but received $3500 less on trade in due to the bad head gasket. I'm also concerned about the safety hazard this could potentially have been. My daughter has a 2020 accord.
NHTSA #11674168
At 98,000 miles, the head gasket is blown. From a safety concern, the car goes into LIMP mode while driving and had to swerve out of traffic. A Honda Certified Dealer Service center confirmed the Blown head gasket It was only inspected by Honda Mechanics. The threw a service engine soon warning lamp which disabled the engine. This happened a few times while driving before getting it diagnosed.
NHTSA #11683718
It appears the head gasket failed due to an anomaly on the engine block between cylinders. We were driving down the road when the engine lost power and went into limp mode ( dealer term). The problem of the head gasket was confirmed by the dealer, but the anomaly on the short block has not been explained. The engine block was inspected by the service tech, service manager and a rep from Honda. No explanation given. No warning lights came on until immediately after the engine lost power. The engine block is available for inspection at the dealership.
NHTSA #11686910
My family's 2019 Honda Accord with ~80k miles suddenly had all the warnings lights flashing on the dashboard in early July 2025. The initial diagnostic reader showed a Cylinder 3 misfire. After replacing spark plugs, the warning lights returned after one week; at that time, the ignition coil was replaced but the warning lights returned again after one week of driving. The Honda dealership performed further diagnostics and tests, ultimately reporting that the engine needed fuel injectors replaced AND a head gasket. It is important to mention that when we initially called the dealership's service department to make an appointment, the Service representative that answered the phone immediately recognized this issue, saying that it is a well known issue with Accord 1.5 turbo engines. Honda Corporate has stated that the car is outside of the manufacturer's warranty and that there is no recall. Note that there are class action lawsuits in the US on this matter, as well as lots of online traffic of car owners experiencing this issue with the Honda 1.5T engine. It appears that there is a serious design flaw in the engine.

Blown head gasket on 1.5T engine. It is a common issue that so many owners of this engine have experienced. It was a safety risk because it happened going at 70mph on the highway, the head gasket blew and it limited the power of the engine. Suddenly, acceleration was no longer possible and the vehicle began limping. I had to drive for several miles at a speed of 35mph (the fastest my car could go no matter how much gas you give it) on the shoulder of the road to take the nearest exit and be somewhere safe. The problem has been confirmed by a certified Honda dealership. It The vehicle has been inspected by the Honda dealership. Symptoms that I have not confirmed to be related to the issue are missing coolant without any leaks. I had to refill the coolant without any visible leaks and there were not any leaks found by independent service center.

NHTSA Vehicle Safety Complaint Vehicle: 2019 Honda Accord 1.5T Engine: 1.5-liter Turbocharged (L15B7) Mileage at Failure: 88,000 miles Issue: Blown Head Gasket / Coolant Leak / Engine Stalling Summary of the Problem: At approximately 88,000 miles, my 2019 Honda Accord 1.5T began exhibiting signs of a coolant leak and engine performance issues. After diagnosis by a certified mechanic, it was confirmed that the head gasket had failed, causing coolant to leak into the engine. This led to overheating and a dangerous engine stall while I was in active traffic, posing a serious safety risk. Safety Concern: The vehicle stalled unexpectedly in traffic due to the head gasket failure, putting me and surrounding drivers at risk of a crash. A blown head gasket can cause sudden overheating, misfires, and loss of power, all of which jeopardize the safe operation of the vehicle. This occurred without any warning lights or prior symptoms, making it even more dangerous. Repair Cost: The repair for the blown head gasket and associated engine work cost me $3,800 out of pocket, despite the vehicle being well maintained and relatively low mileage for this type of failure. Maintenance & Vehicle History: The car was serviced regularly according to Honda’s recommended schedule. There were no prior signs of overheating or misuse. The stall happened suddenly, requiring the vehicle to be pushed to safety to avoid blocking traffic. Wider Problem Indication: This issue appears to be widespread among 2019–2021 Honda Accords with the 1.5T engine. Many owners report similar head gasket failures, indicating a potential defect in the engine’s design, materials, or thermal management. Requested Action: I respectfully request that the NHTSA investigate this issue as a safety-related defect, and that Honda be required to issue a recall, extended warranty, or reimbursement program to address these premature and dangerous failures.

My 2019 Honda Accord with the 1.5L turbocharged engine is experiencing serious engine issues, including coolant leaking into the engine cylinder, oil contamination, engine misfiring, and overheating. This is a known issue and the subject of a federal class action lawsuit (Bissell v. Honda, Case No. 3:24-cv-02286). Honda has not issued a recall or repair program for this defect, and I am now out of warranty and facing costly repairs. This is a safety concern and I urge the NHTSA to investigate.

In May of 2025, all the lights on my dash lit up and I began getting notifications about my systems not being available. I took my car to my local Honda dealership and was told that there was an issue with the clips on my turbocharger and they would have to be replaced. I laid $309 + $120 diagnostic to have that tested and fixed. I drove the car for exact two weeks, and the same issue occurred, I returned my car to Honda and they told me my engine air filter needed to be replaced, so I paid for that. The very next day, the same thing happened. I took my car to Honda on 06/09/2025, and they had it for roughly 90 days. In September, I was told that I had a cracked head gasket and my turbocharger was bad. I was quoted $7640.35 to fix this issue. I then began to do research and noticed there was a Facebook group called 2018-2022 Honda Accord - blown head gasket, where many people were having the same issue with their car. Ultimately, it cost $7100 to get my vehicle fixed. I don’t believe it’s a coincidence that so many people, living completely different lives, are having the same issue with their 2018-2022 Honda vehicle. This needs to be investigated.

I was told the best thing to do was report it here. Our son was driving his 2019 Honda Accord and suddenly everything on his dashboard lit up. Was told it is a blown head gasket. We were also told that the shop has had over 81 Accords in with the same issue. They said Honda is trying to sweep it under the rug rather making a recall. We were told this is what they see: The head gasket material between cylinders is very tiny, any minor disturbance will cause coolant to leak into the cylinder. Usually failures are happening between cylinders 2&3 where the material is the thinnest. 2) Honda is really trying to get a lot of power out of this small engine with the inclusion of the turbocharger. Higher octane fuels are needed to prevent premature detonation / knock, especially with forced induction (turbo charger). You can still run the car using 87 octane, but the chances of problems like a blown head gasket happening increase. 3) The head bolts that keep the engine head to the engine block are not strong enough. These bolts are torque to yield at around 50 ft lbs (if that). There have been instances where these bolts don't have enough clamping force to withstand the pre-detonation. This force causes the head to jump and the bolts to stretch. The heat from the combustion in the cylinder is no longer contained, which warps and damages the head gasket over time, leading to its failure. It was suggested to use ARP studs which we were told are a higher quality than the OEM Honda head bolts and have a stronger clamping force. Our son ended up stranded 3 states away with this issue that we then learn is VERY common yet there are no recalls.

10th Gen Honda Accord has a major engine design flaw allowing coolant to pass through the gasket mixing with fuel in the cylinders causing premature head gasket repair which also puts the injectors under immense stress due to high compression. While driving my 2019 Honda accord to the dealership for inspection. All the lights started flashing on the dash. Highlighting - Critical failure detected please stop driving when safe. After a few mins the car’s infotainment system shut off no electrical activity and the car shut off mid drive. Luckily, it was in the morning and not during peak traffic congestion. Had I been going on the expressway I could’ve harmed myself, or someone else. This is highly unacceptable that a car with only 96k miles has a serious engine issue like this. I have maintained the oil changes at the required intervals, changed the fuel pump under recall, tires, brakes etc. After towing to the dealership. Diagnostics were performed and it was confirmed that the coolant was empty and radiator low. Which then prompted the dealer to perform a borescope test for the cylinders and it was found that cylinder 3 had a misfire and was leaking coolant into the cylinders causing premature wear on the gasket as well. The car is out of warranty and the service advisor said to me that they had another Honda just like mine with the same issue. This isn’t an isolated incident and many owners with the 10th gens have the same exact issue nationwide and Honda turns a blind eye and expects us to pay over 6,000 for the repair it’s a total scam! They are making money hand over fist without any recall and just scamming their customers. This is truly unacceptable and should be investigated immediately and Honda reprimanded!

Engine began to have an odd stutter and trouble accelerating which was initially believed to be spark plugs after a full tune up did not fix the issue took to my local mechanic. Diagnosed the issue as bad fuel injectors likely due to the fuel pump recall. Code popped up as cylinder misfire initially which didn't make much sense considering a full tune up was completed less than a month prior. After further diagnosis issue was found to be a blown head gasket causing several thousand dollars in repair due to having to completely disassemble and reassemble the engine.

The vehicle, a 2019 Honda Accord, experienced a catastrophic engine failure (blown head gasket) and entered "Limp Mode" after being operated for approximately 18 months with an unaddressed, high-priority federal safety recall (NHTSA 23V-858). The vehicle currently displays DTCs P0100, P0113, and P023D, which indicate severe air/fuel metering and boost pressure correlation failures. Primary Cause: Consequential Thermal Stress The primary cause is likely thermal degradation of the head gasket resulting from a prolonged "lean-burn" condition. Recall Defect: The recalled fuel pump impeller is known to deform, restricting fuel flow. Lean Condition: A restricted fuel supply causes the engine to run "lean" (too much air, not enough fuel). Lean combustion is significantly hotter than normal combustion. Heat Accumulation: Over 1.5 years of operation with this restricted flow, the engine experienced repeated, excessive thermal cycles that compromised the structural integrity of the head gasket. Limp Mode Trigger: The stored codes (P0100/P0113) show the ECU was struggling to compensate for the erratic fuel/air environment created by the failing pump. Secondary Assessment (The Dealer's Claim): The Service Advisor (Paul) has alleged that aftermarket components and a missing turbo gasket caused the failure. Assessment: While aftermarket parts increase scrutiny, a missing external turbo gasket typically causes an exhaust leak or loss of boost, not an internal head gasket failure. Contradiction: The dealer must provide empirical proof that these parts caused the failure, whereas the NHTSA recall is a pre-documented, manufacturer-admitted defect known to cause the exact stalling and "limp mode" symptoms the vehicle is currently exhibiting. Conclusion: The most probable cause is manufacturer negligence. By failing to provide a remedy part for 18 months, the manufacturer forced the vehicle to operate under a documented defect that creates the exact high-heat conditions required to cau

My vehicle’s fuel delivery system failed after a recall repair. The in-tank fuel pump was replaced under recall by the dealer, even though I had no drivability complaints, no warning lights, and a full inspection that day confirmed no issues with my vehicle. Immediately after the recall pump replacement, the vehicle developed drivability problems including sputtering, hesitation, and failure to start.On one occasion, the underside of the car overheated and exhaust fumes, including carbon monoxide, entered the cabin. The interior filled with heat and fumes, I became lightheaded, dizzy, and shaky, and nearly lost consciousness while driving. My dog, who was with me, vomited and panted heavily from the exposure. I had to pull over and exit the vehicle immediately. This incident occurred only after the recall pump was replaced and points to faulty installation or malfunction of the recall component, which disrupted the fuel system and caused improper combustion and exhaust handling. On another occasion, the vehicle stalled in the middle of an intersection, leaving me at serious risk of being hit by cross traffic. The car now shows a high-pressure fuel pump fault. Although the in-tank pump and the high-pressure pump are in different locations, they are part of the same system: the in-tank pump supplies steady fuel volume and pressure directly to the high-pressure pump. If the in-tank pump is defective, mis-installed, or inconsistent, it causes the high-pressure pump to fail. This made my vehicle unsafe to operate, placing me, my passengers, and other drivers at risk. The problem has been confirmed by the dealership, which documented a high-pressure fuel pump fault, and reviewed by Honda Corporate. Components and service records are available for inspection. There were no warning lamps, messages, or drivability issues prior to the recall service, all symptoms appeared immediately afterward.

When driving the car the first time this happened on April 19, 2026 I excellerated after stop light to cross a highway. That is when the car started sputtering and the check engine light started flashing it would only go 5 miles per hour, I then pulled to the side of the highway turned the car off restarted the car check engine light was then turned off I excelerated. The check engine light started flashing again, the car would not proceed again. The second time this happened was April 21, 2026, we had not had the problem happen for a couple days so I drove it again got to the stop light and excellerated again and the same problem happened.

I am reporting a recurring safety concern involving sudden loss of power and engine stalling while driving. The vehicle wouldn't accelerate during normal driving condition and lost power. After the vehicle stalled, all the warning light came on. My husband retired to restarted the engine but the it made cranking noise. After couple of minutes it barely restarted and was able to drive about a mile and then it stalled again. Repeated 4 times to finally make it home. The vehicle has a prior recall history related to the fuel system. The Current symptoms are similar to fuel delivery or fuel system-related failure conditions. I called Honda Corporate to provide flat bed for the towing but they refused. My husband cleared the code (P0087)so the vehicle was free of warning lights so he can drive to the dealer next morning. We brought the vehicle to Honda dealership for diagnosis. However, the issue could not be reproduced during an inspection due to code (P0087) was cleared and couldn't reproduce the code which directly indicates Fuel Rail Pressure Low. Given the safety nature of this condition and the fact that it occurs while driving, I and requesting an investigation into whether this may be related to a known defect of incomplete resolution of prior recall -related repairs. This issue poses a potential safety risk due to unexpected loss of engine power during operation.

This 2019 Honda Accord was part of the fuel pump recall that occurred in 23/24. The vehicle was taken in and had the fuel pump fixed at the dealership under the recall. From that point we have begun to have issues with the fuel injectors. The vehicle started to run rough, and then all of the dash lights came on. All accessory items, Lane Departure warning, adaptive cruise control, etc, all stay on as if malfunctioning. The vehicle was taken into dealership and diagnostic was run, results was two failing fuel injectors. Calls were placed to Honda and request was made to have them assist in a goodwill repair since so many of these vehicles are experiencing the same issue after the recall repair was made. Honda did a review of the diagnostic report and reported problem and stated that the vehicle fell outside of the warranty on the fuel injectors, and that they would not honor any assistance in repairs. They stated case was closed and no further conversations could be had. I mentioned that I knew that they had issued an extended warranty on 2016-2019 Honda CRV's and Civics for the fuel injectors up to 150,000 miles. They stated that my vehicle VIN did not fall within those, which I acknowledge. Vehicle is still malfunctioning and we will be responsible for the repairs, even though this is a well known issue after the fuel pump recall repair. It was stated that we will just need to fix the repairs on our own, which is over $2000 and that, if in the future, there is a recall or extended warranty offered then we could try and speak with them about possibly getting our money back.

Gas filler "system" does not have screw on/off gas cap. It has a rubber covering with a slit through which driver inserts gasoline station hose metal nozzle. When removing gasoline station hose nozzle, rubber slit "appears to close" but drops of gasoline remain on the rubber covering & drop onto the vehicle body. I wipe off gasoline drops with paper towel. I'm concerned about large amount of gasoline used & question if "rubber slit covering" provided instead of a tighten screw on/off gas cap allows gasoline/vapor to evaporate & condense on rubber covering of car fuel delivery hose to tank. This occurs in very cold weather as well as warm weather. Recall information on "Honda Fuel Pump" doesn't include this vehicle fuel delivery system issue. Aunt sold me the 2019 Honda Accord Sedan recently on [XXX]. I didn't notice this "no locked gas door" (push on gasoline door to open the door) which opens to rubber "pouch with slit" covering over delivery hose filling area down to gas tank. Aunt sees these 2 mechanisms as making filling gas tank easier without release of inside lever lock to gas delivery door nor having to turn a screw cap to open/close at gas station fueling. Aunt is instructed by Honda DarCar/Fairfax, VA to take Honda Accord in for maintenance only once a year. She was told she can check electronics system info regarding "% oil life remaining" as guide to when to get an oil change. A problem at this point is an alterable/'reset-able" electronics guide to when to get an oil change which can change "% oil life remaining" by accidental reset. By comparison, my now out-of-service 2011 Honda Accord had a normal locked gas filling door release from inside which opened onto a screw cap which could be tightened to stop gas vapor leak, evaporation/condensation & for gas theft & vandalism protection & an unalterable "% oil life remaining" wrench icon which resets only after oil change.

Although my VIN currently shows no open recalls (because the fuel pump recall was previously marked completed), the replacement part failed while driving in traffic, leaving me stranded. This vehicle previously had the low-pressure fuel pump replaced under the Honda recall campaign. On [XXX], the replacement fuel pump failed again while driving in rush hour traffic in North Dallas, causing the vehicle to stall in a live lane and creating a major safety hazard. I attempted dozens of restarts without success. The vehicle was towed to Coit Auto Center ($80), where they performed a diagnostic test confirming low-pressure fuel pump failure codes — the same component that was recalled. On August 16, 2025, the vehicle was then towed ($223) to John Eagle Honda in Dallas (the original selling dealer and recall repairer). Honda and the dealership stated the repeat failure was not warrantable because the recall repair had already been performed once. This is unacceptable. A recall remedy that fails is still a recall compliance issue, not a customer-pay repair. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate Honda’s handling of repeat recall failures. The vehicle requires replacement of the defective pump and coverage of labor costs, as well as a full diagnostic inspection (starter, alternator, battery, ignition, ECU, and electronics) to ensure it is safe for road use after the stall and restart attempts.

While traveling at approximately 55 mph yesterday, in daylight, with no other cars in front, back, or to the side of our car, it radically braked on its own. The collision mitigation system warning light has frequently flashed on the dashboard since we bought the car new in 2019 but never did it apply the brakes on its own. Dealerships over the years have told us "this just happens", and offered no fix for the false positive alerts. This is a dangerous situation which could result in an accident or even death of occupants if not resolved by Honda. I spoke with several dealerships since the phantom braking event and they tell me they hear this complaint often. Being an intermittent situation, it is extremely difficult to diagnose and resolve.

VEHICLE: 2019 Honda Accord LX SUMMARY OF SAFETY DEFECTS & FAILURE: My vehicle is experiencing severe, dangerous mechanical and electrical failures identical to existing national safety recalls, yet my specific VIN is being excluded by the manufacturer. 1. FUEL SYSTEM FAILURE & ENGINE STALLING: The vehicle is experiencing sudden engine stalling and failure to start due to a defective low-pressure fuel pump. This matches the exact failure profile of NHTSA Recall Numbers 23V-858, 21V-215, and 20V-314 (Honda Campaigns KGC/KGD). This defect causes the vehicle to lose power unexpectedly, creating an immediate crash hazard on active roadways. 2. BODY CONTROL MODULE (BCM) DEFECT: The vehicle is suffering from critical electrical disruptions, resulting in erratic component failures including [mention any specific symptoms you have, e.g., malfunctioning windshield wipers, defrosoter failure, rear-view camera blacking out, or power window errors]. This perfectly mirrors the systemic programming defect outlined in NHTSA Recall Number 20V-771 (Honda Campaign X95). DEALER DIAGNOSIS & MANUFACTURER DENIAL: I have taken the vehicle to an authorized Honda dealership multiple times. - In June 2025, the BCM software issues were initially dismissed by the dealer as a general electrical problem. - A subsequent comprehensive diagnostic confirmed the fuel pump and BCM failure, resulting in a repair estimate of $4,688. The dealership refused to cover the repairs under the safety recalls, citing that my VIN is not currently flagging "open recalls" in their corporate database. When referred to American Honda Motor Co. Corporate Customer Support, corporate summarily dismissed my complaint and refused any cost assistance or repair remedy, despite their clear knowledge that these exact defects plague the 2019 Accord LX model year. Because the manufacturer is utilizing restrictive VIN range loopholes to evade financial accountability for known safety hazards, I am filing this complaint

When driving home one night the dash board in the car all of a sudden hade a lot of warning lights come on. I brought it to my mechanic to have a look at it and he suggested to change the spark plugs and the coils which was done and he cleared the codes. About two days later I went to go to work and once again all the warning lights on the the dash board come on and it wouldn't drive over 5 MPH. The mechanic went deeper into the problem he said it was cylinder # 3 that had a misfire and the fuel injectors needed to be changed which was done($1,000 later). A week went buy no lights on the dash came on but it has a rough start and when you get to about 40 MPH the car starts to hastate to move. this time i brought it Rick Case Honda to have it looked at and they are telling me it is now the head gasket on cylinder # 3 has a hair line crack and needs to be changed ($7,400) To remove and replace the head gasket. This happened over multiple weeks between bowering cars waiting for parts. Now i have find a way to pay a $7,400 bill

City street driving speed < 35-40 mph, engine began rough idling at stop light after traveling just 1/8 mile. After driving less than 1 mile on level ground, engine slowed and would not accelerate above 20 mph. After another mile or so, increasing uphill grade caused speed to slow to 12-14 mph. Stepping on gas caused car to slow down even more, with shaking and jerky stop-start of vehicle. Maintaining 10-12 mph permitted vehicle to continue uphill climb for a few more miles so I could reach home. Downhill coasting was smooth with no gas pedal acceleration. Overnight parked in garage, and no problems driving vehicle to local independent auto mechanic. They were able to duplicate problem after 2 days and multiple test drives. Diagnosed permanent and temporary engine codes: misfires of cylinders 1 and 4 with ignition coil malfunction, misfires of cylinders 1, 2, 4, and random misfires. Also permanent codes: antilock brake ECM Failure, electric power steering vehicle stability assist System Malfunction, electric servo brake electric power train System Malfunction. Mechanic removed coils and spark plugs, found cylinder 4 has moisture. Coils, plugs cleaned and re-installed. Honda Dealer unable to duplicate problem after 3 days.

I bought this car and after only owning it for eight months, as I was driving down the freeway, every light on my dashboard lit up, and my car slowed down. I was able to pull to the side of the road, but I could no longer drive my car home and I was commuting. Since the first incident, I have repaired my car having the coil repaired spark plugs, and regular maintenance in the last eight months that I have owned the car and now my turbo charger needs to be replaced. I took it into two different mechanic shops. My car is only at 130K miles this should not be causing an issue with a Honda now I cannot find anyone to repair it without costing me $2000 plus.

Vehicle was being driven on the highway when suddenly engine hesitated and started stalling. Speed was reduced from around 65MPH down to the low 40s. Cars were stacking up behind and passing, causing potential hazardous conditions. Vehicle was taken to a mechanic shop and diagnosed with misfiring, after reading OBD II with many alerts coming on. Further diagnostics revealed cylinder head gasket was leaking coolant into engine, as shown by borescope images. This is a known problem on 2018-2020 Honda Accords with both 1.5T & 2.0 engines. The multiple alert messages started to come on a few weeks ago, but the engine hesitation and stalling just started this week. At first we suspected a 12V battery issue, but testing confirmed battery was at 12.8V with no issues.

My car started getting hot, began to overheat. I was on my way home on freeway. Second lane from slow lane. My car began to loose power, I could no longer excelerate. There was a big rig coming up behind me he was not slowing down as he got closer began honking I was trying to flag him that I could not move, as I was trying it started to go like 5 miles per hour where i began slowly to get over, cars in the other lane slowed down. Big rig went around me and avoided any collision. Thank God. I slowly made my way home on the streets with heater blasting. I towed my car to the dealer. I was told, my head gasket needed to be replaced, more than likely I would need a knew engine. Dealership said it was because when taken my car in for service I did not bring to the dealership. Cashier told me that there have been several incidents as mine.To my surprise I googled 2019 Honda Accord engine, and there were many with the same issue same car same year. Yet no recalls! I was lucky not to have been killed or have caused a multiple car collision. Are we waiting for someone to be killed to recall these engines. I missed several days of work, borrowed cars and rented a car to get back and forth to work not to mention the tramatic experience of a big rig coming at you honking on a FREEWAY. A week prior to this incident, my lights on the dashboard came on. I did call the dealership to set up an appointment. At that point they were no signs of overheating. I have taken my care in faithfully for oil changes where all fluids are checked, i was not told not once that any fluids were ever low, last visit was approx 5 months ago. I have called to have them send me all receipts. However in hindsight I do not need theses records as it has been proven by other people they have had the same experience. We are not talking about a faulty air conditioner we are speaking of an engine, in my case power failure. In the even records of oil changes and dealership diagnosis is required. I can email.

Complaint Regarding Ongoing Issues After Turbocharger Repair – 2019 Honda Accord I am submitting a complaint regarding ongoing issues with my 2019 Honda Accord after a turbocharger-related repair. The initial diagnostic code associated with the vehicle was P2563 (Turbocharger Boost Control Position Sensor Circuit Range/Performance). After the turbocharger/wastegate repair, my vehicle began displaying multiple system warnings, including: * Emissions System Problem * ACC (Adaptive Cruise Control) warning * Collision Mitigation System warning * Lane Departure/Lane Keeping Assist warning * Electric Power Steering warning * Stability/traction control warnings * TPMS (Tire Pressure Monitoring System) warning After the repair, the vehicle began jerking and experiencing a loss of power. Multiple warning lights appeared. While the warning lights temporarily cleared after a couple of vehicle restarts, they later returned and continue to reoccur. I subsequently took the vehicle to Honda, where I was informed that a sensor required recalibration. Despite having the sensor recalibrated, the issues have continued, and the warning lights continue to return. I am requesting that Honda investigate whether the repair, wiring, sensors, modules, calibration, or the turbocharger system itself may have contributed to these ongoing problems. I have also noticed that many Honda Accord owners are reporting similar turbocharger-related issues and multiple warning lights appearing. This appears to be a very common issue among affected vehicles, and I believe it warrants further investigation to determine if there is a larger underlying problem affecting these vehicles. I am requesting that Honda review this matter, document these concerns, and provide a proper resolution. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Description of Incident: 1. Component/System Failure: The engine cooling system and head gasket failed. A certified shop has confirmed coolant intrusion and a failed leak-down test on Cylinder 2. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. 2. Safety Risk: My safety and the safety of my family and other drivers were put at extreme risk. On March 1, 2026, the vehicle suffered a sudden loss of motive power while traveling at 70 MPH on the freeway. The car dropped to 15 MPH instantly, forcing me to maneuver across active lanes to a narrow shoulder with almost no space. I was nearly hit by high-speed traffic. This has occurred over 8 times since 2023. 3. Confirmation by Service Center: The problem has been reproduced and confirmed by an independent service center On Site Lube Auto & Tire. They utilized a borescope and leak-down test to verify the internal engine failure. 4. Inspections: The vehicle has been inspected by a certified independent technician. I am in the process of notifying the manufacturer (Honda) of these findings for their inspection and accountability. 5. Warning Lamps & Symptoms: Prior to the total power loss, the vehicle displayed engine temperature warnings and "check engine" lights. These symptoms first appeared approximately 8 months after purchase in 2023 and have progressively worsened, leading to the current engine failure. 6. Additional Notes: This failure is identical to issues cited in active class-action lawsuits regarding Honda's engine defects, affecting both standard and Hybrid models. I am communicating via written report/email for documentation and accessibility purposes.

Lights go crazy in dashboard apparently due to constan cylinder misfires, spark plugs changed, same issue, fuel injectors and coils changed, same happened keep it getting fix and the problem persist, making the car dangerous to drive, since it loses power since the car it’s not able to respond and work as it should be Having engine, steering and brake issues, problem has been confirmed by dealer. It hasn’t been inspected by manufacturer. The lost of power and acceleration it’s probably one of the symptoms before all the light go on again. It’s been several times that this happens and I know for a fact that many people are experiencing this issues due to turbo or head gasket failure. Might get that inspected soon.

While driving on a highway in snowy conditions, the vehicle experienced a brief loss of traction and slid across lanes. There was no confirmed collision with another vehicle, object, or obstacle. During this event, the passenger-side curtain airbag and passenger seat airbag deployed unexpectedly. There were no warning lights, messages, or prior symptoms indicating any issue with the airbag or safety systems before the incident. After the event, the vehicle was inspected by an authorized dealership. The inspection confirmed that the airbags had deployed; however, no diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) were found in the system, and no system malfunction was identified. The dealer suggested that “impact seems” to be present based on visual observation, but no specific collision or impact event was confirmed. I expressed concerns about the safety implications of this incident and requested further diagnostic evaluation to determine the specific cause of the airbag deployment. However, no additional diagnostic analysis was performed, and no definitive explanation was provided regarding the triggering event. The cause of the airbag deployment is UNKNOWN. The system activated without a clearly identified impact or recorded fault, raising concern about whether the airbag system may deploy under loss-of-traction conditions without a qualifying collision. This unexpected airbag deployment created a potential safety risk, as it occurred during vehicle instability and could have further impaired driver control or visibility. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request.

While I was driving my car on the highway doing the speed limit of 60mph my car lost complete power and lost speed to below 20mph and would not gain speed. I pulled over on the highway turned the car off and back on. It begins driving again normal. The next morning it was mis firing so I took it in to the dealer and this is what I was told after getting a diagnostic check: FOUND CYLINDERS 1 AND 4 LEAKING COOLANT FROM THE HEAD GASKET.

On May 13, 2025, I took my car to the Honda dealership, because all of the lights on the dashboard came on. I was told that the clips on my turbocharger needed to be replaced, and so Honda fixed that $120 (diagnostic fee) $209.99 to fix the issue. I was traveling so they kept the car for a week. I received the car back, and about 2 weeks later, 06/03, the same thing occurred, I was told that the engine air filter needed to be changed, and it caused the lights to go off $32.84. The next day 06/06, the lights went off again. I took my car back to the Honda dealership and they had the car from 06/09 - 09/04. Today they have reached out to say “It took a while to recreate the issue because they are ‘masking each other.’ There is a leak in the head gasket, and the turbocharger is going out.” It would be cheaper to buy a used engine and used turbocharger than to have it rebuilt.” I have spoken with other Honda owners, who have a 2018-2022 Honda accord, that have experience the same issue.

Wednesday 10/01/25 I was driving to work on the highway with cruise control on, it was a empty road with nothing in front or behind me, my steering wheel got yanked out of my hands and turned all the way to the right towards the guard rail, then the steering wheel got yanked all the way to the left automatically, I did a 180 degree spin and crash my 2019 Honda Accord Touring 2.0L. I believe the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) was at fault as well as the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS). The vehicle got towed off the highway directly to a local body shop. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Mine and others safety was put at risk because the vehicle decided to crash itself potentially killing me or other people. The vehicle just arrived at the body shop and no diagnosis has been done yet. The vehicle is not drivable so the problem has not been reproduced. Vehicle has not been inspected and looked into yet, I am waiting for the body man to do a deep dive into it or I am planning on bringing it back to the dealership. There was no warning lamps present.

I bought this 2019 Honda Accord on June 30th from a company called Greenville Motor Company. July 1st, I took the car to the Honda dealership to get a diagnostic to make sure everything was in good shape. The technician I spoke with did notice the car & stated that it had a problem with the previous owner which was the Injectors. She told me that the light may not come on now but it may come on in the future. After I left the Honda dealership, I went to Greenville Motor Company & showed them the diagnosis I had done at Honda. He said he didn't see anything wrong. On July 2nd, all of my dashboard lights came on. Took it back to Greenville Motor Company, the tech there said I could pick it up July 3rd & drive it over the weekend. (basically he reset the lights so they wouldn't come on for a certain period of time).Within this time period I took it back to the Honda dealer & they told me that I also needed a turbo, they gave me the printout for that as well. Took it to Greenville Motor Company, they agreed that I did. need a turbo. Manager says he ordered turbo. I I don't remember the date I took it back but on July 12th, my dash lights came on again. I took it back to Greenville Motor Company July 14th, July 18th Greenville Motor Company called & said something on top of the turbo wasn't screwed on thats what was triggering the turbo code to show, so he never put on the turbo that he ordered I had it 2 hours & my dash lights came on again.

In the past 2 months my car starting having rough idle issues. As recommended by the dealership, I replaced the head gasket as they said it was leaking coolant into the cylinder causing the rough idle. Almost immediately after paying for this, the dashboard lit up like a Christmas tree with multiple warnings and the car went into limp mode, lost acceleration and would have been extremely dangerous had we been on the interstate or multi lane road. Took it back to the dealership, ran another diagnostic and determined the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. These repairs cost over $5,000. Recalls have already been put in place for models around this one and Honda should acknowledge these problems as it is wide spread.
NHTSA #11690555
I have taken my car to the Honda dealership on multiple occasions because my car has stopped accelerating while driving on the interstate. The car will flash the check engine light and completely stop accelerating while driving. I was first told it was the fuel pump that was recalled and waiting over a year on the recalled part and multiple times breaking down while driving they finally replaced the part. After the dealership replaced fuel pump I continued to have problems unfortunately happening more often and worse than before replacing the fuel pump. I was then told my car was misfiring and needing a tune up which would involve replacing all four coil packs and spark plugs. I replaced all of these recommended parts with no resolution to my problem. I have since be told by the dealership my car needs all four fuel injectors replaced after running the diagnostic tests. After doing research it seems to be a common problem with this make and model car. I can’t believe with as many cars with this same issue and the safety issues with completely stalling in the middle of traffic there are no recalls on these cars.

SRS weight sensor failure-- triggers the dashboard warning light and disables my passenger airbag. My SRS light is on continuously. There is a current Honda recall for this issue for my make and model; however, do to my VIN not being listed, the Honda dealership wants to charge me a diagnostic fee plus the repair costs for the exact issue that the current recall is listed for. My VIN needs to be added. I should not have to come out of pocket to pay for this when I'm having the exact issue listed in the recall. My SRS light being on continuously is a MAJOR Safety concern because it disables the airbags--so in the event of an accident, the airbags will not deploy. I contacted Honda Corporate and they created a case--Case number 16432964 for this issue--but they told me it would be possibly months to get anything done and I would still have to pay out of pocket first.

My Honda has experienced repeated failures of the front headlamps due to moisture accumulating inside the assembly. In addition the failures of the headlamps caused a fuse to blow rendering the turn signals inoperable. This is dangerous because it limits visibility at night, inability to signal other cars of turning. this first happened in 2024 and happened again in 2026. These conditions were confirmed by an independent repair shop. Honda service refused to make any consideration for the problem. The replacement of each headlamp is very expensive, over $1000.00. There were no warnings prior to the failure. the vehicle did display a message that there was a problem with the head lights once they failed.

My vehicle's right driver seat buckle assembly is failing. My seat belt will not latch making my vehicle unsafe and unlawful to drive in the State of Florida. I first noticed this problem on Friday, February 13, 2026. There is currently a safety recall on my vehicle (2018-2029 Honda Accord). I registered my car through [XXX] and noticed that there were two recalls for my vehicle. The two recalls are the seat belt malfunction and fuel pump, which neither repair has been completed on my vehicle. I contacted the dealership on Monday, February 16, 2026 and advised them that i have a failing seat belt on the driver side. I provided them with my vehicle VIN and they advised that I only qualified for one of the repairs (fuel pump). After speaking with the dealership the seat belt recall was removed from my account. I also contacted the manufacturer and they told me the same thing regarding the recall needed to be associated with my VIN number. The Service Bulletin 23-016 was issued on March 10, 2023 and updated on March 24, 2023, I purchased my vehicle on December 8, 2023. The dealership is refusing to repair the seat belt and requiring me to pay out of pocket because the recall is not attached to my VIN. However, the recall is for all 2018-2019 Honda Accord Models. Due to a current recall in place, I should not have to pay out of pocket. I reviewed the Service Bulletin in detail and I am having the exact problem with my vehicle. I would like to escalate this issue to require Honda to cover the charges for this repair. It is not normal for seat belts to fail, I have seen cars 15-20 years old that do not experience these issues. Even those in the junk yard have working seat belts. So, this is not some random incident it is due to the recall. Due to this being a safety hazard I am seeking your assistance regarding the matter. I have videos and photos but I am not able to upload here due to size. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My supplemental restraint system problem keeps appearing on my dash at random times, sometimes will go away then sometimes will stay. I feel this is odd as if something was wrong I want to check it out but I cannot tell and feel this might be a technical error.

The wheels on the Honda Accord stick out further than the tires thus get scuffed up easily. I had them repaired once shortly after purchasing the car but it was pointless. I believe everyone who has driven the car has damaged the wheels further by accidentally hitting a curb.

There is loss of power when accelerating and all the warning lights are staying on when the car starts which is disengaging all of the advanced driver assistant systems.

This needs to be addressed. EVERYONE knows NOW that there is a high incidence of Head Gasket failure with Honda. The Honda head gasket class action lawsuit includes the following vehicles if equipped with 1.5-liter or 2.0-liter i-VTEC turbocharged gasoline direct injection engines: 2018-2022 Honda Accord 2016-2022 Honda Civic 2017-2022 Honda CR-V 2021-2022 Acura RDX 2019-2022 Acura TLX I got an "approximate cost" for a head gasket repair on a 2019 Honda Accord, of $3000 from the Honda dealer after previously getting a $3559 from an independent. The dealer just came back to me with an estimate of $5781.32. I check reliability ratings before ever buying a car. It's a Honda! If they are not willing to do the right thing, maybe they should be made to? This NEEDS to be a recall. Do you even know how many Americans have been affected by this? Including those that haven't complained or reported it?

While driving my 2019 Honda Accord, after about five minutes on the road, multiple warning lights suddenly appeared on the dashboard. The emission system, brake system, power steering, TPMS, ACC, hill start assist, collision mitigation, and vehicle stability assist warnings all came on at the same time. The alerts caused concern for safety, as several major systems such as steering assist, braking, and driver-assist features appeared to malfunction simultaneously. The issue seems related to an electrical or charging system failure (such as the alternator or battery), since all of these systems rely on stable voltage to operate correctly. The incident occurred without warning and could have resulted in loss of steering assist or engine power while driving

My car has been sending several warnings including: Brake System: Electric Parking Brake System Problem, Brake System Problem, Brake Hold System Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control System Problem, Collision Mitigation Braking System Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, Supplemental Restraint System Problem, and Power Steering Reduction Problem. My car is not even 100,000 miles yet. I have had all maintenance done on time and recently had brakes replaced. I have changed my battery and tires twice within the 6 years of owning the car. It seems this is a regular complaint for such low mileage. I was a Toyota person but switched to Honda for their safety performance, and now I am regretting that. I read that this is the Turbo needing to be changed. This part should be recalled if it is failing soon. A person who just bought a car should not be paying $4500 in repairs already. I had the Fuel Pump recall replacement done, and had the brakes done. I am changing the spark plugs and ignition coils next week. Honda needs to do something about this and I am looking to join in the class action suit against them, if they do not correct the issue.

I was driving on a city street at about 30mph. There was no one in front of me or behind me. Nothing in the road. The orange rectangular brake light came on for no reason, kept flashing and it felt as if the brakes were automatically being pumped, slowing the car down to a compete stop. In addition, I had no control of the steering. It was very dangerous situation which could have resulted in accident or injury.
