MY CAR WAS AT THE MECHANIC'SHOP AROUND THE CORNER. IT'S AT HONDA OF SERRAMONTE IN COLMA OF DALY CITY. THE CAR WAS AT THE SHOP SINCE 01/28/2021. THERE IS A RECALL ON 2018-2021 HONDA ACCORD. PLEASE GIVE ME A CALL. [XXX]. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

THERE APPEARS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE STEERING WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT, THE WILL SEEM TO LACK RESPONSE AND THE CAR WILL DRIFT TO THE RIGHT OR THE LEFT ONLY TO HAVE CONTROL REGAINED VIA A NOTCHY LIGHT JOLT OF THE WHEEL. THIS HAS ALSO BEEN DESCRIBED BY 2018-2020 ACCORD OWNERS AS A NOTCH AND/OR FLAT SPOT IN THE STEERING WHEN ON SMOOTH STRAIGHT HIGHWAY ROADS. I CONSISTENTLY HAVE THIS OCCUR WHEN DRIVING FOR MORE THSN 5 OR TEN MINUTES ON ANY OPEN ROAD. DOES NOT SEEM TO NOTICEABLE IN LOCAL DRIVING. I DO NOTICE THIS WITHIN 20-30 MINUTES OF DRIVING. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP (WALDORF HONDA) AND THEY DID A MINOR ADJUSTMENT TO THE BALANCE OF THE TIRES. THIS HAD NO EFFETC FOR THE PROBLEM AND I NOTICED IT HAPPENING AGAIN IMMEDIATELY UPON DRIVING ON AN PEN HIGHWAY AGAIN. I'VE IDENTIFIED AT LEAST 20 SUCH COMPLAINTS ON THE NHTSA WEB-SITE FROM 2018-2020 MODELS, I'M SURPRISED THAT NO SUCH BULLETIN OR RECALL IS DOCUMENTED TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. THIS IS PRIMARILY A HIGHWAY ISSUE AT SPEEDS ABOVE 50MPH, BUT I EVEN FEEL THE NOTCHY STEERING ON SMOOTH SINGLE LANE COUNTRY ROADS THAT AT 40-50MPH. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A DEFINITE CAR SFAETY ISSUE WHICH NEEDS TO BE REMEDIED AS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE CAR DRIFTS AND THE DRIVER FIGHTS TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT. ESPECIALLY CONCERNING WHEN DRIVING IN RAIN OR SLICK CONDITIONS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA NEEDS TO ADDRESS BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED DUE TO HIGH-SPEED SWERVING TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE IN A STRAIGHT LINE ON THE ROAD. IN ALMOST FIFTY YEARS OF DRIVING I HAVE NEVER BEEN AFRAID TO DRIVE A CAR ON THE HIGHWAY. THAT IS HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE 2020 HONDA ACCORD NOW.

HAD OIL CHANGE SERVICE MANAGER SAID TECH CHANGING OIL NOTICED A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN OIL . MANAGER SAID YOU HAVE GAS IN YOUR OIL.

CONSTANT ALERT COMING ON VEHICLE AS DRIVING SAYING "COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM HAS A PROBLEM. HAVE YOUR VECHILE CHECKED BY DEALER" ALONG WITH "ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROM SYSTEM HAS PROBLEM. TURN OFF ENGINE, THEN RESTART" AM I DEALING WITH A COMPUTER OR A VEHICLE I CAN POTENTIALLY LOSE MY LIFE IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG???
