2021 HONDA ACCORD HYBRID Complaints

2/24/22 - Drove to work in the morning. Front driver door will not open from outside or inside. Had to climb over the center console and exit thru the passenger door. The driver's door will unlock, but will not open. Problem disappeared when getting back to the car after work (4pm EST). 3/1/22 - Rear driver door would not open from outside or inside. This was going on most of the day. Took the car to Great Lakes Honda West (Elyria, Ohio) at about 6:30pm EST. The rear driver door opened when at the dealership. The service tech mentioned possible BCM issue, but said I would have to bring it back when the door was stuck closed again.

Phantom Braking when using Adaptive Cruise control. The vehicle brakes unexpectedly when adaptive cruise control is enabled. Typically happens when there is no leading vehicle in my lane, but there are vehicles ahead of me in other lanes. Happens consistently, almost every time the adaptive cruise is enabled. The system also applies brakes in situations when cruise control is not enabled, and there is no leading vehicle in front of me. Issue can surprise drivers behind me and lead to a collison where I am hit from behind.

I have experienced 2-3 sec hesitation upon accelerating. This hesitation occurs occasionally usually when turning and the is stopped or moving slowly. When it has happened I have experienced threatening safety situations particularly when making turns when crossing oncoming traffic such as when making a left 90 degree turn at a stop light with oncoming traffic in the lane I am crossing or if I have to make a quick acceleration to avoid a rapidly threatening safety situation.

My tires were purchased new on 11/6/21 from Les Scab in Portland, OR. and are Continental ExtremeContact DWS06Plus, size 235/40ZR-19. A few weeks after purchase the TPMS came on so I had the tires checked at Les Schwab. I was told all the tire were low, likely due to weather. Within a couple weeks the TPMS came on again, I returned to Les Schwab on 12/18/21. I was told all the tires were a little low again but that the rear drives tire was at 19 Psi. I was told again it was likely weather but that the rear drivers tire was a little lower than the rest and if the TPMS came on again to return. On the evening of 12/23/21 the TPMS came on again. I took my car to Les Schwab again and about 11am and was told they could fill the tires, but they could try to find and fix the problem because they would close at 1pm and they did not have time but to bring it back on Monday. Despite my pleas, they refused. I tried calling the Regional Manager at his store but every time I called someone answered and either hung up or put the call on hold but did not answer. On 12/25/21 at about 6:50pm while driving about 55 mph on the I-5 freeway in Portland, OR., I was in the center lane and heard a loud pop. My stirring wheel pulled right and as I held tight, I heard another loud, dull, grinding noise from the front passenger side of the car. I slowed, turned on my hazard lights and waited for traffic to stop so I could pull to the side of the freeway. I looked and saw that the front passenger side tire tread had completely detached from the sidewall. I then called to have to car towed back to my home.

Upon pulling into a parking space, with the steering wheel almost at full lock to the right, when I braked, the car suddenly accelerated out of control and hit another car. Airbags did not deploy but there was damage to both vehicles, no injuries. Vehicle has been taken to a collision repair shop to await repair. It is available for inspection. Has not been looked at to date.

Incident 1: Car suddenly applied brakes while traveling at 60 MPH on the fast lane. There was no vehicle in the front for at least 50 ft. ahead. Incident2: Car suddenly applied brakes while traveling at about 40 MPH. Again no vehicle in the front for at least 100 ft. in the front. Worried about the vehicles colliding from the rear and the whiplash effect on the neck, because the braking was not expected. Contacted the dealer. First time I was told to bring it in for check up. I did not take it because I wanted to do it at the first oil change. Second time happened about 3 weeks ago. Contacted the dealer. Asked the dealer whether the safety feature can be turned off. He said he will get back to me next day. He never did. Sent a subsequent message "???" but no reply. Then I called this morning. He said he is with a client and will get back to me in 30 mins. He did not. Then I sent a message saying that I am disappointed with the after sales service with the dealership on this safety issue and that I will inform NTSB about this problem.
