2021 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

2021 Accord Hybrid Touring 2.0L with 51k miles. On 10/22/2023 the check engine light started flashing so I pulled over and noticed the engine was running rough so I shut it off. When I restarted it all was fine, no CEL, so I drove it to the dealership. They stated that there are no CEL codes found, so come pick it up. I told them that the CEL flashing was a major problem and I pulled a P0304 code. 2 days later they called and told me it had blow head gasket.

Brakes failed and steering took over the car uncontrollably and went in all different directions hitting whatever it came across and ending up stopping after hitting the last thing

While driving, infotainment system starts jumping to different modes causing me to get distracted while driving. I ended up recording a few clips of it in the mist of running into the curb. Honda initially stated that it was odd because there are no complaints a year ago. Yesterday however, I talked to Honda because the problem is occurring more. They stated that there are numerous complaints. In order for them to fix it, they have to be able to duplicate the issue

Honda accord breaks unexpectedly for no reason. It’s an automatic break or slow down without us pressing the break. The car has an automatic emergency break system and it seems to break when nothing is I front of us. Happens many times and dealer can’t figure out what is wrong. They tell us car is running well.

My daughter was driving the vehicle on the highway, probably 65 mph. she said that a sheet shaped piece of metal struck the front bumper. It is not clear if this was on the road or fell from the car. It seems to have happened fast. the vehicle sustained no obvious body damage but the frame and bracket holding the milliwave radar module were damaged. The milliwave module was intact. the cover for the milliware radar module was missing. This car has not been in a collision. The dealer wants over $2,000 to replace all the components including the milliwave radar. They say it is probably broken. If the existing module is reinstalled, they say it may not work. I was not able to download the estimate for repair. Does this happen often or is there a design defect?

I was driving home in the rain and felt the car automatically braking when there was no car or object in front of me. The car was also slow to accelerate because the brakes were automatically applied. 5 miles later numerous warnings appeared on the dash and the following error messages came through my Hondalink app: Electric Parking Brake Problem, CMBS Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control Problem, and RDM Problem. Several times during this drive home the brakes automatically applied without any intervention from me or roadway object. I almost got rear-ended once when a car behind me had to slam on its brake when my car automatically braked without me doing anything. This is a very dangerous condition that should be looked further into as multiple drivers have reported brakes being applied without driver intervention or an apparent road hazard. How many complaints will it take before a recall is issued so other Honda drivers do not need to be put at risk?

I was driving on the freeway going 65mph when the automatic safety brake system slowed my car down abruptly for no reason at all. Luckily there wasn’t any other vehicles anywhere near me or it would have caused an accident. This wasn’t the only time the safety system activated without reason either. It also happened two other times in similar situations.

Check engine light came on regarding power train system. The very next day it went away.

The collision mitigation brake system continues to come off, and today it made my car spin, and I almost crash into the media.
