Vehicle: 2017 Honda Accord EX Mileage at incident: Approx 30,000 Date of incident: Dec 10, 2025 Description of problem: While my daughter was driving our 2017 Honda Accord EX, the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) suddenly activated without warning. The car slammed on the brakes even though there was no obstacle in front of her. This caused the vehicle to skid, but fortunately there was no collision or injury. There were no diagnostic codes found when inspected by an independent auto shop. The shop advised us to temporarily disable the CMBS system. This appears to be part of the ongoing issue of phantom braking in Honda vehicles, which has been reported by many owners and is currently under NHTSA investigation. I am concerned about the safety risk, especially since my daughter drives this car regularly. Safety concern: Unexpected braking at highway or city speeds could easily cause a rear-end collision or loss of control. I request that NHTSA investigate this incident and ensure Honda provides a permanent fix or recall.
There has been a recall on newer cars for the loss of power this is a similar to that problem.
This is an ongoing problem - -- On startup, the vehicle reports 4 system warnings that shut off the cruise control and ABS brakes as well as the other safety systems. This is an intermittent problem. -- The dealer states that the camera is dead and wants $2,500 to replace and calibrate it. This is a common response from dealers I see in all the forums. -- I have found a work-around that is not documented in forums yet. -- If we keep our foot on the brake until after the electronics start sequence finishes, no errors EVERY TIME -- If we take our foot off the brake when the car starts, but before the electronics finish, we get errors every time. This is a dangerous, high-frequency, extremely expensive problem if we follow the dealers suggestions. I do not know what the root cause is, but I know it is not a $2,500 problem. And, I am very concerned about the people driving without the safety features due to the excessive and unnecessary cost.

All 4 warnings came on about a month ago - no safety systems & no cruise control at all. I could drive 50 miles and they'd go off until eventually they did not. Now I find through the forums that this is very common for the 2017 Honda Accord & Hybrid! And, the dealers knowing this are charging over $2,000 for a simple camera! So, they know these have a high failure rate, are not fixing them, and are price gouging us! Please help us all on the roads out there!

While driving my car suddenly felt like it was braking. The car beeped but no brake light appeared as when it thinks i am going to run into something. There were 2 incidents with nothing in front of me. One was at a low rate if speed and one was on a freeway. The car went back to normal after a second. The incidents were around 3 weeks apart
ON [XXX] my car while driving suddenly reported ABS brake system failure, together with that other warnings flashed Adaptive cruise, PS System (EPS) failure etc. With difficulty I was able to stop the car and pull over. Same day I called Honda service HQ and lodged a complaint Case number [XXX]. The car has 57,478 miles and is properly maintained. Honda suggested that I drive the car over to a dealership. I am unwilling to drive due to serious safety concerns. Another followup email was sent on July 8th to [email protected] but has resulted in no response. I am a [XXX] and even though its a serious safety incidence, Honda has shown no signs of concern . Please advise and help me out, the company should get it towed and fix the issue free of charge.

The contact owns a 2017 Honda Accord. The contact stated that there was a failure with the Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) and Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) system. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the LKAS and Adaptive Cruise Control messages were displayed. The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.
Mileage: 150,000
The problem with the LKAS manifests in the following ways: The system unexpectedly disengages without warning, failing to provide lane-keeping assistance. Erratic steering corrections occur even when the vehicle is properly centered in the lane, causing instability. The system frequently displays error messages indicating LKAS failure, requiring manual intervention to reset or disable the feature. At times, the system does not activate as intended, even when road conditions and markings are clear and well-defined. I have attempted to troubleshoot the issue by ensuring that the vehicle’s sensors and cameras are clean and unobstructed. However, the problem persists. I have also reported the issue to a Honda dealership, but they have not been able to provide a definitive resolution. This malfunction creates a serious safety concern, as an unpredictable LKAS system can lead to unintentional lane drifting or sudden corrective actions that may startle the driver or lead to a loss of control. Given that LKAS is a key component of Honda's driver-assistance technology, I believe this issue warrants further investigation by NHTSA to determine whether it constitutes a broader defect in the 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid model. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate this matter and determine if similar complaints have been reported. If this issue is determined to be a widespread defect, I urge NHTSA to take appropriate action, including a potential recall or mandatory software update from Honda. Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. I would appreciate any updates regarding your findings and any further steps I should take. Please feel free to contact me at the information provided above.

On [XXX] the car was being drive from North Carolina to Ohio. The brakes failed in Fort Chiswell, VA, at 5:00 pm on [XXX]. Using the brake pedal did not slow the car, had to put gear selector in B, that slowed the car but did not bring it to a stop. Had to use the emergency brakes to come to a complete stop. This malfunction could cause a crash or could cause injury or death. The brakes failed a second time the tollbooth between Princeton, WV, and Beckley, WV. On [XXX] the car was towed to the Honda dealership in Beckley WV. The dealership worked on the brakes and claimed to have fixed the problem. On [XXX], after one hour of driving, now in Charleston, WV, the brakes failed a third time. The car was turned off and then back on and driven and the brakes failed a fourth time. The car was towed to the Honda dealership in Charleston WV. The dealership was told that the problem occurs after driving the car for an hour or so. The dealership was not willing to drive the car that long to replicate the problem. There is a Honda Service Bulletin [XXX] that pertains to a similar brake problem on this vehicle.

On October 14, 2023, several lights came on after starting the car up, including the ABS light. This had not happened before. We had just had the car serviced for an oil change 2 weeks prior. We called friend who was a mechanic to see what we should do. Not long after we had reached out, we had a situation where we pulled out of our neighborhood and someone illegally turned in front of us almost hit us head-on. The only reason it didn't occur is because I put on breaks very quickly and stopped our car. We took my car to have to lights assessed today and found out that the lights came on due to the ABS Modulator going bad. We also found out that they do not have the part and that it's on backorder. That it has been this way for a year or so. After talking to the technicians and doing research, this issue with the part has been a problem for Honda Accords 2013-2017 and many question if this should be on recall. I can think of reasons why Honda has not address this issue, but this could be a huge lawsuit if someone were to have this issue and not be able to replace this part, as could be us but we are fortunate that my brakes work last weekend. Please give this some attention and follow up with Honda. This part and replacement is also very expensive, amounting to around $2300 for most who had it done. And it also seems to happen for most people reporting around 85,000 miles. Thank you for reading this and I hope to get some attention to this issue for myself but also for other. I would hate for someone to die and for this to become a huge issue for Honda.
this system is malfunctioning and braked suddenly twice and I almost got rear ended. now the system is not working and the dealer at diamond honda wont repair.
Hello I am proudly owner of honda since 2003 i only buy honda cars and recently on my 2017 honda we have issues with sensing system this error codes come and goes and i went to dealer and they told me to replace sensing Camara in front but I think it is just manufacturing defects because error code come and goes while you drive car. I cannot use any feature such as cruise control, forwarding collision warning, lane departure warning, lane keeping assistance and all features including in sensing system. I was on long distance trip and when i was coming back all those errors started coming.
The adaptive cruise system on this vehicle will get you rear ended real fast. It applies the brakes whenever it feels like it, when you make a turn while passing a truck it will slam on the brakes so hard it tries to throw you thru the windshield and all you are doing is passing a truck in a turn The lane departure is dangerous because it fights you in a turn to the point you have to fight to stay in lane and it shakes the steering wheel which seems to me would be the last thing you want to have happen

The forward camera tied to ALL safety features (as well as cruise control) is defective. I have tried to replace at a Honda dealership twice since December of 2022; they tell me the part is backordered. Because the camera is defective, NONE of the safety features work; cruise control is also disabled. Failure to have the part available is creating an unsafe vehicle by prolonging repair. My car has approximately 120,000 miles.

I was driving my vehicle and it began displaying messages that my collision mitigation system, road departure mitigation system, adaptive cruise control system, and lane keep assist system all have problems. Simultaneously, my backup camera has ceased working. This is causing my vehicle to randomly lurch forward without being propelled by me, which is EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! All of these issues/codes began at the exact same time and it seems this is a widespread problem with Honda Accords manufactured around this year based on prior reports on this site, recalls to subsequent models, and other information publicly available on the internet. When will we get the same recall that has been offered to other models? My vehicle only has 58,000 miles and change on it. There's no reason for it to be functioning in this manner other than its defective manufacturing.
I have a 2017 Honda accord, just a little over 5 years old and 73K miles. It has never been in a car accident and I bought it new from the dealer. Last month I started to have lights that showed my lane assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation system, and road departure mitigation system were not functioning. I took my car to the dealer and was initially told that it was an SRS unit failure. Later, they changed and said the SRS unit is fine but the camera is damaged. Honda is considering this normal wear/tear and will not cover this repair even though the car has never been in an accident. The car will not pass inspection unless this is fixed. The airbags will not deploy until this is fixed and the car is therefore dangerous to drive. The camera is on back order and it will be at least a month before it can be repaired.

Road departure mitigation system problem, adaptive cruise control problem, lane keep assist problem, collision mitigation system problem - lights all started to turn on in 2017 Honda Accord Touring. Took the car to the dealer. Was told that the entire SRS system has failed. The car was bought in 2017 brand new from the dealer and has never been in a car accident. Unclear why a five year old car is already having electrical system failure. Car won’t pass inspection and this is a $1000 repair.
All wrong lights came on the dash and all components had failed. Took it to the dealership and they weren't able to diagnose, they reset the system and said that if it failed again I would need to purchase a Honda battery as it had recently replaced with another brand. Everything worked for about two weeks until I was on the freeway with the cruise control set at 75 and suddenly the brakes took me down 35. Very frightening experience. Took it in again and they said I needed to replace the camera in the windshield at $1,900.00: my car only had 42,000 miles and 4 years old. Reluctantly, we replaced and paid for the camera and once again the cruise and lane assist failed a week later. My screen also appears to be defective as it goes black and pixilated and the dealership simply resets it and the problem persists. Took it into the dealership for the 4th time and they reset system and once again it worked for about week... again the forward collision warning slammed on the brakes on the freeway. I do not feel safe driving the car with all the failures happening so abruptly. Honda is not being helpful with this problem and the severity of the problem doesn't seem to be a priority.

I have had two major issues with my 2017 Honda Accord sport since buying it brand new that the Honda dealership will do nothing about even though I’ve specifically been told twice on two separate occasions that the car was manufactured defected. My mitigation systems has failed multiple times where it just stops responding losing control of the steering and accelerating on its own. One of those times caused me to run off the highway into the ditch. It just randomly iluminates all “mitigation systems failure” at the most random times. Another thing is the ridiculous tire issues I’ve had with this vehicle. I have put brand new set, after set, after set on this car. On two occasions atleast one my brand new tires lasted less then two weeks after purchasing due to extreme wear on the inside of the tires. Two different automotive mechanics have told me I can’t even have my car aligned due to the way it was manufactured they would have to completely swap out major components of my steering and suspension to do so. I believe they said it’s the drive line or drive shaft is to large for the car and it’s the cause of all my tire issues and steering issues
When Driving the car it will occasionally Brake when another car is passing in the opposite direction My local Honda Service technician can find no problems. When we deactivate t he CMBS(Collision Mitigation Braking System) the problem goes away.
Traffic was traveling at around 55 miles per hour. The car in front had to make a quick stop to avoid hitting a flagger that could not be seen due to the sun. My car that is equipped with Hondas forward collision mitigation system did not respond. I pressed the brakes myself but did not stop in time resulting in an accident. The system does activate randomly while driving and will slam the brakes when no objects are in the path of the vehicle.
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.
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.
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.
