2017 HONDA ACCORD Complaints

While driving on an interstate, I started reducing my speed as I was approaching my exit. Before I could exit, my car automatically came to a complete stop. I was rear ended by a truck that was behind me. There were no vehicles or objects in front of me. 911 was called. The passenger in my car had to be transported to the hospital. My car and the truck had to be towed away. No warning lights appeared. My insurance company will be inspecting the car at the tow shop. Everyone involved safety was put at risk. We are thankful we are alive because this could have been worse.

Driving on the highway with the adaptive cruise control, lane departure warning, auto emergency braking and lane keeping assistance engaged the vehicle will occasionally initiate an un-commanded, unreasonably abrupt brake application for seemingly no reason and often with no other vehicles in the vicinity. I've noticed Honda has issued a recall for 2018-19 Accords for this exact anomaly. It only stands to reason that my vehicle is experiencing this same defect as many of these systems are shared with the 2017 Accord. I won't use this feature as is because it seems unpredictably dangerous.

My backup camera at first was blurry and now all I can see is black with either orange or yellow lines. I depend on this camera

Glitchy infotainment system crashes (specifically Apple CarPlay). Users have to unplug phone and plug it back in multiple times while driving.

car locked down on roadway and would not respond to accelerator until brake paddle action, as it did not accommodate the transmission B mode drag and falsely detected a pending collision. plus it falsely detects exit lane markings as collisions and engages brake. Also does not factor in gravity in collision avoidance. We have an uphill steep driveway and it will lock down in the driveway to avoid hitting something that the force gravity prevents. for a bit, disabled system and talked with service and then set the distance setting to short, which seems to have improved the issue.

I have continue to have issues with my navigation freezing. Then the whole navigation system will shut off and will eventually do a reboot in the middle of driving. It is definitely a safety hazard as you are trying to drive, navigate and try to figure out why your navigation system is breaking and not working working while driving. Especially If you are driving in an unfamiliar area using your navigation because you actually need it, then it becomes very frustrating and very dangerous and hazardous.

As I was driving straight about 40 Mph, the steering assist failure warning, lane assist failure warning, and power steering failure warnings all came on at the same time. Had I been going around a curve or turning I would've crashed, because the steering locked up and it was extremely difficult to steer. The failures and electronic warnings cleared as I was driving the car to the dealer the following morning.

All the warning lights came on in the dashboard. Took it to the dealer, replaced the steering sensor. Couple months later all the warning lights came on again.

While driving this Honda accord the sunroof suddenly exploded into thousands of little pieces.It rained down pieces of glass all over me and the interior of the car. Nothing hit the glass and I had never heard of this occurring until I began researching to see if it had happened to others. There are many instances where people have talked of this happening to them on the Honda forum and other places online. This is definitely a safety concern. Glass shattering and pouring down on people while they are driving is potentially a fatal flaw. Cars with sunroofs should be required to use laminated glass like for windshields,

My 2017 Accord infotainment system's Apple carplay constantly freezes whenever I use it. This is posing as a safety risk because the infotainment unit would randomly freeze up and require shutting off the car and turning it back on in order for it to work again. There are multiple people experiencing this. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/2016-2017-honda-accord-carplay-issues.2287310/ https://www.driveaccord.net/threads/2016-accord-ex-l-apple-carplay-screen-freezes.554208/page-3#post-6821377
