2020 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

On [XXX] I took my elderly mother to physical therapy and the car began to randomly brake although there were no vehicles in front of me. The braking light flashed and then car brakes on its own. A week later I was driving approximately 55 mph on a major highway and the car started braking again but without the warning light. Again, there were no cars anywhere around me. The next day I went to the Honda dealership in Covington, LA because I am very concerned this will happen again unexpectedly when there are cars around me and it will result in a bad accident injuring myself or others. I was told he can keep my car all day but he said they probably could not recreate the issue so its just a waste of time. He said nothing he can do about it. That's just how it is and maybe it was from a bug passing the sensor. I know have to remember to turn off the feature every time I drive because I am terrified that it will randomly brake again and it may cause a serious accident. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Bought the car back in 2020 after less than a year electrical problems caused the car to malfunction got it fixed and constantly after that more electrical problems changed the sensors and the car still continued to lose power. While driving on the highway the car completely lost strength and would not let me drive more than 25mph check engine light started blinking as well as all the lights LKAS ACC TPMS and more.

Vehicle engaged emergency brake by itself. Also in regards to current fuel delivery recall, Honda has yet to fix my recall saying they have not come up with the parts yet. This is my only vehicle that I bough to commute to work of 150 miles a day. The car stalls on the highway becoming more often than not and is hard to start sometimes.

This car brakes while we are driving while there is nothing in front. was reported to the dealer, they can not find the issue unless the carb does it, or I can turn off the program, but that is not a safe move.

Open highway traveling 50+ mph, changing lanes from middle to right. Car's emergency brakes turned on and slowed me down abruptly for about 1 full second. Thankfully no on was behind me and no one was hurt. I have had this car for 6 months and this has happened 2 other times.

The hand/emergency brakes activated without me doing it while driving and had stayed on ever since. I had my mechanic look into it and he mentioned may be due to a defective sensor and advised to have the dealer look into it for recalls. I saw that the NHTSA is actually reporting on a similar issue. The car still has good brakes (pads and rotor) however the issue continues as it will randomly activate the emergency brakes.

Collision mitigation message turned on, took it in to dealer and they said sensor was coming up as malfunction and not aligned so they aligned it. Although sensor was aligned emergency brake still brakes without an obstruction in front. It has happened on interstate highway at speed limit where speeds are at 75mph.
