Sep 23, 2025 Fire

The 3rd cylinder connecting rod failed under 120k miles. The rod knocked the starter loose while the vehicle was going 70 MPH, and caused a fire. It was inspected by the dealership it was purchased from. There were no symptoms or warnings at all, it was sudden and unexpected. Myself and my passenger were both shaken and thankfully had time to pull over when it happened, and we managed to put the fire out.

This vehicle has the same 3.5 litre V-6 that is being recalled engine failures, and stalling in the Honda Ridgeline, Passport and Acuras. Why arent the Honda Accords included? Since 2020, this car stops moving forward, and attempts to stall after a complete stop in traffic. I have to feather the gas pedal to reingage the engine, and get the car out of danger. It is an ongoing situation. I am the only driver of the car, and would never letanyone else drive it, due to this. I happens very regularly.

Cylinder 3 misfire as indicated through an obd2 scan caused by a faulty spark plug and igntion coil. This is the second time these needed to be replaced when the vehicle is at 58,000 miles. The VCM is causing this issue along with excessive oil consumption and Honda is aware and not issuing recall or reimbursement for service to correct the issue.

May 8, 2025

The fuel injectors/fuel system is malfunctioning causing the vehicle to jerk during acceleration and is dangerous since the car feels like it’s about to stall.

May 8, 2025

The vehicle sometimes is stalled during the red light stop. Both engine fuel light and battery light will come up. After several attempt to restart the engine, it will run again. I know there was fuel pump recall on 2017 Accord, but it's not on my sport model. So, I think it might be affect to my car too.

Apr 26, 2025

On Sunday, March 30th, while driving on the highway, the car jerked and a hard vibration was felt before the engine died. The orange engine light flashed two or three times on the instrument panel but that was it. The owners manual states that a flashing orange engine light indicates a misfire. No other lights prior to that moment had illuminated on the instrument panel. The car is a 2017 Accord Sport with approximately 101k miles. Purchased in November 2021, this is the first time there’s ever been a problem and my car is maintained regularly. The car was towed to a local mechanic and I was told there was a misfire on cylinder 3, the valve spring is broken, the valve is bent, and the timing chain is loose. I was told I need a new engine. I don’t understand what happened because there was no warning or indication that anything was wrong. The safety concern is that the car died while driving on the highway and the vibration and jerking was scary trying to control the car while traveling at high speeds. I called Honda directly and I was told that my vin isn’t included in any recalls so there’s nothing they can do to help. I know there was a service bulletin in 2019 for the cam chain tensioner but I don’t know if this car was serviced since I bought it in 2021. I can’t afford to replace the engine and I’m still making payments. My VIN isn’t included with the fuel pump or oil pump recalls despite now including the L4 2.0 engines. This is my third Honda and I’ve never had anything like this happen before. The customer service rep said there was nothing they could do to help after confirming that my vin wasn’t included in any of the recalls. I had the car towed to a Honda dealership earlier this week for a deeper look into how and why this happened and the tech said the engine suffered a catastrophic failure. He also stated that he’s never seen anything like this before - referring to the broken valve spring. Valve springs are not wear and tear items.

The first instance occurred 04 Apr 2018, where while driving the car shutoff; I was able to coast to shoulder of road. After a brief amount of time I was able to restart, but it occurred again while heading to dealer location. The dealer blamed the malfunction on bad gas and could not replicate. (see R.O. 767659). 2nd occurrence was 25 May 2018 again. I was in an traffic light intersection and was able to coast through and get to side of road. Called dealer and their recommendation was to have car towed to dealership. They finally agreed there was a serious problem and replaced fuel pump assy. see (R.O. 773135 attached). I recvd 1st recall notice 20 Mar 2024 (parts unavail). I recvd 2nd recall notice Oct 2024. On visit to dealer they stated no repairs will be done unless symptoms occur. Since then I have been hesitant to drive car any distance. This situation could have deadly consequences if it occurs during high speed traffic. Only indicator inside car is "check engine" light. Honda has refuse to take action (been 6 months!) I tried to impress upon them I've experienced this scary situation already and it concerns me when I drive this car.

The car is unable to be driven at no more than than 20 miles per hour. . I believe and other mechanic people believe that the problem was a fuel injection problem. Honda autopark Honda in cary, NC charged me $1500 to fix a water pump problem. No issues with temperature inside the car.

Jun 17, 2024

The vehicle turn off and on while driving on the highway, is like the engine stall while driving, increasing the risk of a crash or injury. I'm aware there's no recall on my vehicle, however, it's a known issue that Honda had voluntarily recall approximately 2.6 million 2017-2020 Honda vehicles in the United States to replace their fuel pumps, for free due to a similar issue. I have experience this issue of the vehicle shutting down then on while driving in the last couple of weeks and it's increasing each day. The accord was bought for my son to use, if he encounter an accident due to this fuel pump issue and he lose his life, someone would have to be held accountable.

Mar 23, 2024

Currently own a 2017 Honda Accord Sport just over 100k miles, regularly maintained and serviced. All of a sudden my vehicle takes longer to start and the most shocking issue is that I was driving to work as normal and when I went to accelerate onto the interstate my vehicle suddenly started jerking and it seemed as though my vehicle was not getting fuel even though I was pressing the accelerator. I had to get off the interstate as I was almost hit by other vehicles merging onto the interstate. It is very frustrating that other trims of Accords are included in the recall except this model. This recall needs to be revised to reflect all models for all owners. I literally almost lost my life due to this.

Feb 10, 2024

Vehicle stalled while travelling. I suspect this is a problem of the high pressure fuel pump gathering particulates and not working as proper. There is a similar recall regarding the V6 models of my vehicle, however, the 4 cylinder models were left unaddressed.

Jan 30, 2024 Fire

Around [XXX] on [XXX], I was driving my 2017 Honda Accord LX on [XXX] East in northwestern New Jersey. The first signs of trouble were multiple warning lights (Check Engine and many others) appearing suddenly on the dashboard. There was a total loss of engine power and the tachometer dial dropped abruptly to zero. As I applied the brakes to slow down and move onto the shoulder of the highway, I realized that I also had no power brakes or steering. When the car was nearly stopped on the shoulder, I saw smoke filling the cabin and flames coming from under the engine hood toward the windshield. We quickly exited the car and called 911. The State Police and Fire Department arrived on the scene within 10 minutes but by that time the fire had spread to the interior cabin. The car was inspected by insurance representatives and declared a total loss. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

About 3 months ago, the emergency brake light, traction control light, ABS light and power steering light started coming off and on, they now stay on all the time. I took and had it checked, CODE 121-11 for the VSA Solenoid Valve Malfunction. Had it checked for a program update I was told that there wasn't an update and the part to fix it has been on backorder from Honda for at least two years. (I notified Honda about this) I have a very strange sound when applying the brakes on a cold start and I can also feel a jerk in the brake pedal. Also noticed that oil is leaking around the engine cover and was told that it is a manufacturing issue with Honda. The cover is plastic and over the years, the plastic shrinks and causes a small oil leak. Replacing the cover and gasket would fix this.

The V6 version is under recall. However, this vehicle should be as well. The car fails to accelerate. My car was at the Honda Dealership for over ten days. I came in because my car was unexpectedly unable to accelerate. Honda advised me there wasn't a code but I needed a new battery and other maintenance. I picked up my car, and within 1 mile, I could not accelerate when exiting and was nearly in an accident. Honda advised me at first the car had a misfire and then was unable to duplicate the error. I advised them that it was a safety hazard to drive the vehicle, and if I leave the shop and get into an accident it would be their fault. The next day they said it was a valve issue, and now fuel injectors. I did a search online, and many Honda Accords 2017 owners have the same issue.

My car hesitates when I accelerate I understand there’s a recall for the V6 engine issues with the fuel pump my car is in that category why is there no recall for it. It is doing just what the other cars did that got the recall.

On Thursday July 14, while driving on HWY 278, the car had a sudden failure and starting decelerating. It almost got me and my daughter who was riding with me at the time killed. Only the grace of God protected us!!! I managed to get the car to the Honda dealer (DCH Academy Honda #708, Old Bridge, NJ). They informed me that the fuel pump failed and needed to change. The problem appeared all of a sudden and there was no warning at all. The car is being maintained regularly. This seems to be a manufacturing problem in the fuel pump for Honda Accord 2017 and it needs to be addressed. Again this almost got me killed!!!!!!

Driving and my Honda Accord lost all power. Dashboard red lights came on- battery and engine lights. Within in seconds it just stopped. Took it to Twin City Honda in Port Arthur, texas.

While arriving home today, I left my car running as I carried in groceries. When I came back to get some groceries I started smelling plastic burning. I then see smoke coming out from under my hood. I turn off my vehicle I pop open my hood and I Discover that the fan on the driver side is melted into my radiator. There are two fans in the front of the Honda accord. The fan on the passenger side is Fine however, the Driver side fan is completely melted. This was clearly a fire hazard where this car could’ve been on fire. I was fortunate enough to be home and not having my child in my vehicle. I called Honda to see if it was covered under warranty and they stated no. I did ask that this be reported if anyone else had this issue just for the fact it’s a safety issue

In 2017 I purchased a new Accord Touring. Shortly after purchase, I noticed the car would stall. I have taken the car back on several occassions to have it checked. Each time I have been told they can not detect anything and can not reproduce the issue. I have nearly been hit on a few occassions. I have also complained about the lane departure feature. It too has automatically and without reason over corrected, nearly causing collisions because it abruptly and without reason self corrected. The automatic breaking system has also enacted and caused unwarranted stopping. When the brake notification warning flashes on the dashboard, has caused me to react by applying pressure to the brakes even when it was unneccessary. This feature seems to wear down the brakes with the sudden and unwarranted stopping; even producing the smell of brakes and tires burning. All of these issues are extremely dangerous and can cause serious injury and even death nearly causing cars to hit me in the back. The lane departure and auto correction has caused the car to over correct and veer into other lanes or even off road. This is extremely concerning as it the auto correction can lasts for seconds and I was unable to stop it or regain steering control of the vehicle. These incidents have happened on several occassions and were reported to the dealership.

I GOOGLED TO SEE HOW MUCH PEOPLE HAS THE SAME ISSUE IT'S LITERALLY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH HONDA ACCORDS. HONDA SHOULD STEP UP THERE GAME OR THERE GOING TO LOOSE A LOT OF CUSTOMERS OVER THE NEXT UPCOMING YEARS. HONDA OF AMERICA PLEASE PUT A RECALL AND FIX THESE ISSUES BEFORE IT TURNS INTO A EPIDEMIC THANKS.

Jan 6, 2019 Fire

THE CAR CAUGHT ON FIRE BY ITSELF, A CAR ONLY WITH 13,000 MILES AND 1 YEAR OF USAGE THAT MEANS ALMOST BRAND NEW CAR. I DROVE 9 MILES APROX. FROM HOME TO MY WORK LOCATION. WHEN I ARRIVE AND PARK THE CAR BEFORE GOING UPSTAIRS, I SAW THE CAR BLOWING UNUSUAL SMOKE FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, I OPENED THE HOOD AND I SAW THE FIRE WAS COMING BETWEEN THE ENGINE AND THE RADIATOR. I CALL THE 911 AND WHEN THEY ARRIVED THEY TRIED TO USE A FIRE EXTINGUISHER BUT THE FIRE STARTED GETTING OUT OF CONTROL, FORCING THEM TO USE THE WATER HOSE TO STOP THE FIRE. HONDA IS NOT TAKING CARE OF THIS SAFETY CONCERN AND NO BODY KNOWS WHAT HAPPENED

I HAVE STARTED NOTICING ENGINE ACCELERATION LAG, A TIRE/WHEEL NOISE FROM DRIVER FRONT/REAR SIDE. THE NOISE WAS VERY NOTICEABLE SINCE IT FELT LIKE THE TIRE/WHEEL WAS RUBBING AGAINST EACH OTHER SOMEWHERE. THE NOISE CAN BE HEARD DRIVING AT THE SPEED OF 15-30MPH HAVING THE WINDOW ROLL DOWN. JUNE 4TH, 2018 MADE A APPOINTMENT WITH PURCHASING DEALERSHIP YONKERS HONDA TO HAVE THE CAR CHECKED. HOWEVER THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, SO I TEST DROVE WITH MECHANIC AND PROVED MY CASE. AFTER HEARING THE NOISE, THEY KEPT THE CAR TO FIX THE ISSUE AND WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR THE NOISE WAS BACK AGAIN. SINCE THEY COULD NOT FIX THE ISSUE, THEY LABELED IT AS "NORMAL" AND CANNOT DUPLICATE THE NOISE DESPITE SHOWING IT TO THEM AFTER MULTIPLE VISIT. I OPENED A CASE WITH AMERICAN HONDA AND THEY COULD NOT GET YONKERS HONDA TO FIX THE ISSUE OR GET THE MANAGER TO CALL ME TO EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. INSTEAD, AMH ADVISED ME TO TRY ANOTHER DEALERSHIP WHICH I DID, "NEW ROCHELLE HONDA" HOWEVER THEY WERE NO HELP WHATSOEVER. THEY DID NOT EVEN WANT TO WORK ON THE CAR DESPITE THEIR MECHANIC HEARING THE NOISE. THE DIRECTOR INFORMED THE MANAGER THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR AND FED HONDA LIES ABOUT DIRECTOR EVER CONTACTING ME OR TEST DRIVING WITH ME. I CALLED HONDA AGAIN, AND THEY DID NOT HELP ME INSTEAD TOLD ME TO GO TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP. I AM ON MY THIRD DEALERSHIP, WORKING WITH BRONX HONDA ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE SINCE JUNE 4TH, 2018 AND STILL NO FIX...NOW I AM EXPERIENCING ACCELERATION LAG, BRAKE ROTORS ISSUES, WHEEL VIBRATION, VIBRATION WHILE BRAKING FROM HIGH SPEED EVEN THOUGH BRONX HONDA RESURFACED THE BRAKE ROTORS INSTEAD OF REPLACING THEM WITH NEW ONE.

Aug 21, 2017 Crash

ON THE NIGHT ON JULY 3, 2017 THE 2017 HONDA ACCORD WHICH WAS ONLY 5 WEEKS OLD WAS PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY OF MY HOUSE. THE CAR WAS IN PARK AND THE MOTOR WAS TURNED OFF. YOU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY UNLESS THE CAR WAS IN PARK. THE CAR THAT WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF THE HONDA ACCORD WENT TO BACK OUT WITHOUT REALIZING A CAR WAS BEHIND IT. THE OTHER VEHICLE INVOLVED WAS A KIA OPTIMA. THE KIA OPTIMA LIGHTLY BUMPED THE HONDA ACCORD AND STOPPED AS SOON AS IT REALIZED THE HONDA WAS BEHIND IT. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF THE HONDA ACCORD OR TO THE BACK OF THE KIA OPTIMA. THE HONDA ACCORD WAS PARKED ON A FLAT SURFACE AT THE TIME. WHEN THE KIA HIT THE HONDA THE HONDA ROLLED DOWN THE DRIVEWAY AND HIT A LIGHT POLE. THE ENTIRE LIGHT POLE CRASHED DOWN AND BROKE. AT FIRST I THOUGHT THAT THIS WAS IMPOSSIBLE UNTIL I SAW MY NEIGHBOR'S VIDEO FOOTAGE OF THE INCIDENT. WE CONTACTED HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND OF COURSE AT FIRST THEY THOUGHT THAT WAS IMPOSSIBLE UNTIL THEY SAW THE VIDEO. AFTER A FEW DAYS HONDA GOT CORPORATE TECH SUPPORT INVOLVED AND WAS TOLD NOT TO RELEASE THE CAR BACK TO ME UNTIL THEY FOUND OUT WHAT WAS WRONG. AFTER ABOUT A WEEK HONDA TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM BUT AS A "PRECAUTIONARY MEASURE" THEY WERE GOING TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. THEY DID REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION BUT SAID THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR THE DAMAGE TO THE BACK OF THE HONDA OR THE LIGHT POLE. I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE DAMAGE TO THE CAR AND THE LIGHT POLE. A CAR THAT IS LIGHTLY BUMPED SHOULD NOT ROLL AWAY. IT COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE HAD A CHILD BEEN BEHIND THE CAR OR THE LIGHT POLE COULD HAVE CRASHED ONTO SOMETHING. I FEEL LIKE THEY FOUND SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION AND ARE COVERING UP FOR IT OTHERWISE IF THEY TRULY FOUND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE TRANSMISSION THEN WHY DID THEY REPLACE IT IN THE FIRST PLACE.
