All Fuel/propulsion System Complaints (50)
While driving the car studders & stalles on highways. Throws all the lights on. The vehicle. Vehicle goes into limped mode & you have to clear it out before driving it.
Driving home on highway at 3am, car losses all power studders & stalls out with no warning.
While pulling into a parking spot my car unexpectedly accelerated. Brakes were unresponsive even after placing both feet on the brake pedal. Vehicle stopped only after I hit a tree. Engine continued to rev at which point I placed the vehicle in park and shut off the engine. Although the impact of the crash was severe my 1airbag did not deploy.
While driving and pressing gas car would not accelerate and just cut off in road. Vehicle had plenty of gas and no warning light or indications appeared on dash, but car sputtered and slowed quickly to a complete stop while pressing accelerator, then the engine cut off as of it were out of gas.
Frequently, my vehicle experiences a misfire, particularly at highway speeds. The check engine light has turned on and flashed, indicating an engine misfire. The vehicle does not immediately respond when the throttle is engaged, presenting a safety hazard while the vehicle is moving. All spark plugs and coils have been replaced and the problem persists. Other trims and similar models exhibit a fuel pump failure and have been recalled due to a manufacturer defect. I am asking for my model (2017 Honda Accord EX-L, FWD) to be included in the recall and for my fuel pump and affected systems to be replaced.
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.
While driving my 2017 Honda Accord, I suddenly lost the ability to accelerate when pressing the gas pedal entering the freeway. At the same time, the check engine light flashed along with multiple other warning lights, which caused the car to go into limp mode. This put my safety at risk, as I was unable to speed up in traffic, creating a dangerous situation. Same situation occurred the next day - narrowly avoiding the accident. The car is not safe to drive. Honda dealership determined issue was due to a fuel injector failure, on a very well-maintained vehicle it seems strange for this issue to come up. I believe this issue is directly related to the faulty fuel pump which is being recalled for many 2017-2018 ACCORDs as the defective fuel pump caused excessive strain on the fuel injectors over time, it could explain why so many owners, including myself, are experiencing premature failures. Given the safety risks involved and the growing number of similar reports, I urge NHTSA to investigate this issue and hold Honda accountable for addressing the problem and cover the cost of the injection repairs
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.
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.
It’s not letting me full the car up with gas and it’s stalling like the car not having a good gas flow
There has been a recall for fuel pumps. Our car doesn’t fall under the group being recalled. Our accord has been having the same issue. It will stop running when driving. It has happened twice in the last few months. I would like to see if there could be another group with the problem and have not been recalled yet. Our Honda dealership has diagnosed it with a fuel pump problem.
In 2017, I purchased my vehicle brand new from Honda of Union City. A few years later there was a fuel pump recall on my car. I made numerous attempts, phone calls and visits to 3 known honda dealers in Atlanta, GA. I kept getting the runaround, no parts or always something to avoid fixing my car. I called months ago to ask why I never received a letter from honda about the recall and the parts. I was told that my car was fixed by honda of Union City and the case was closed in 2019. However, I have documentation showing the recall was opened until 2023. My car was never fixed, I didn't see or sign any paperwork from Honda.
On Friday, [XXX], while leaving a McDonald’s in Charlotte, NC, my car began to slow down and for different lights came on on my dashboard. I was unable to go over 45 miles per hour but was able to get my car to my sisters home that was a few miles away from where I started having car trouble. I was able to have the car towed to Hendrick Honda in Charlotte NC where they determined my car’s high pressure fuel pump went out. There are recalls on other 2017 Honda Accords but not mine. I get routine oil changes and have never had an issue like this before. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6
On Sept 25, 2024, my car completely turned off as I was pulling out from a side road to cross a 4 lane road. Fortunately, it was mid-morning and no cars were coming. I was able to coast to the far ride lane and put hazard lights on. A light came on--a gas can with something dripping from it and possibly some other lights. It was extremely scary and happened with no warning whatsoever. It could have caused a fatal accident in another situation. I had never seen this light come on before nor had any problems with the car stalling. GREENSBORO HONDA inspected the car and determined that it was the low pressure fuel pump and that most likely the "O" ring had gotten pinched. They have seen this before in Hondas. It's a common problem and my research revealed many Hondas have been recalled for this very problem, but not my particular car. They determined that the fuel pump had to be replaced at a cost to me of $1,200. I made a claim with American Honda and it was denied because there had not been a recall and because the car was no longer under warranty.
Computer sensor, fuel pump, starter the car stalls while cranking and stalls while driving like it wants to shut off. The car wont go over 60 miles without skipping the engine and when the car stops the engine cuts off.
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.
Check engine light on while driving on the freeway engine looses power and wants to stall like the fuel pump is not working all of the sudden. this is a safety issue .there is a recalled on honda accord 6 cly fuel pump but not on the 4 cly engines
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.
At first I thought this was an electrical problem but now it looks like it is the fuel pump. There is a struggle to turn the vehicle on. There are time that I step on the accelerator and it stalls. There are times while driving that it seems that the vehicle is just going to turn off. I am scared that it might turn off while I’m driving. This can cause me to have an accident. I know there has been a recall to 2018-2020 Honda Accord vehicle but I think there are plenty of 2017 models that are going through the same situation.
Lights came on the dashboard, then call was stalling while driving, and car is hard to stop, issue with the fuel pump for my model car and honda doesn't have my vin listed in the recall in which it should be. The recall is NHTSA Recall# [XXX] . My vehicle is having the same issues as the recall states that honda should cover.

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.
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.
On 12-7-2023 I was driving home from work and all of a sudden my car started sputtering and slowing down until it stopped completely in heavy evening traffic. It would not restart so I had it towed. I had a mechanic check it out and he said it was the fuel pump.
Several instances where my 2017 Honda accord loses power or performance. Two instances are (1) stopped at traffic light and when I hit the gas to pull off it moved but would not do anything after that. The engine was on but no power. Thankfully I was close to a parking lot. The car rolled into the parking lot and a few the cut off on me. The 2nd time I was driving down the road, felt a little jolt and once again the car loss performance and I had to guide it to the side of the road.
I was driving on the interstate when the car started to sputter like it was about to kill then several warning lights came on. The check engine light, the steering light and the road traction lights. I got off on the nearest exit and call the tow truck because I was afraid to drive it. It was hesitant to start. I had my new born grandson and daughter with me at the time. This was a very scary situation!
The high pressure fuel pump is failing on my 2017 honda accord. There is currently a recall for this issue on the 2017 honda accord v6 models but not mine. I was driving down the highway and my car went into safe mode causing the car to slow/power down and cause traffics issues. All of my warning lights came on alerting me that there was a problem. This affects the safety of others and puts everyone at risk.
Very soon after purchasing this car in June, the check engine light came on. The problem was eventually determined to be with the fuel tank. I was told by the dealership that the tank was leaking fumes. They told me the problem was a known issue with this model. The part had been redesigned but neither the original or redesigned part are available. We have been waiting for several months for a replacement part. I was told that others are waiting as well and there is no information on a date for repair. My son continues to drive the car but we are concerned about the safety of gas fumes leaking out of the car
My 2017 Honda Accord V6 touring has been experiencing hesitation for the last several years. I know there’s a recall, but why is my car not being recalled I’m having the exact same problems that I described call hesitates stalls sometimes hard to start.
Stalling, engine light turned on, bad gas mileage
Fuel pump failed
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.
FUEL INJECTORS FAILED ON TWO OCCASIONS CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LOSE POWER AND STALL WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS.TO MY KNOWLEDGE THE PARTS ARE NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR INSPECTION. OUR SAFETY WAS PUT AT RISK DUE THE LOSS OF POWER ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER THE SECOND REPORTED INCIDENT, THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AND REPLACED THE FAULTY FUEL INJECTORS. TO MY KNOWLEDGE, ONLY THE REPAIRING DEALER INSPECTED THE VEHICLE. THE "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT APPEARED AS THE ENGINE BEGAN TO LOSE POWER.
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!!!!!!
The car is stalling on the highway out of nowhere. Car won’t start back up for about 20 minutes. Car completely shuts off during traffic. Almost caused a big wreck with an 18 wheeler because I was unable to move the car out the middle lane because it shut off. Causing false codes to pop up. Very dangerous situation with my three small children in the car.
Had a strong smell of gasoline coming from engine compartment. Took to dealership, they reported I had a ruptured fuel line. Took 1 1/2 months to get new fuel line. Honda would not take responsibility for poorly manufactured part. Got car repaired, cost $500 and on my way. My question is, will the new fuel line have the same problem? Very dangerous to catch fire. A lot disappointed in Honda for the treatment I got. The car only had 24,000 miles on it. Thank you!
My 2017 Honda Accord Hybrid was having an issue where several warning lights would light up on the dashboard, so I took it in to Auburn Honda, located at 1801 Grass Valley Hwy, Auburn, CA 95603, to get the car serviced under warranty. They made the necessary repair, which was the replacement of a battery component and I picked up the car on 2/2/21. After about 45 minutes of driving the car with no stops immediately after picking up the car, the warning lights returned and the car suddenly shut off. When I tried to restart the car, smoke billowed from the rear. Shortly thereafter, the entire car was engulfed in flames. This incident occurred more than a year ago and ever since I have been trying to get the proper individual or individuals to accept responsibility for this incredibly dangerous and costly incident, for which we have still received NO compensation. My insurance provider, Atlantic Casualty, and Auburn Honda's insurance provider, Federated Insurance, both sent out fire inspectors of their own accord and they concluded that the battery malfunctioning caused the fire. At this time, the car was at Auburn Honda and the inspection was conducted there. My most recent step and what has led me to file this complaint is that I made a claim months ago with American Honda Motor Corporation on the advice of Auburn Honda to find a resolution to this incident. They have been uncooperative and refuse to accept that the fire was caused by the battery. After the car was moved to a junk yard and almost a year had passed from the date of the incident, they sent out their own fire inspector who concluded that the cause of the fire was not the battery. This is on a car that has already been inspected and changed hands and locations several times at this point. They refuse to accept responsibility despite the fact that two independent fire inspectors already concluded that the cause WAS the battery, which is supplied and approved by American Honda Motor Corporation.
I am Air Force Active Duty, stationed in Germany. The recall was released in Jan 2019. My vehicle was on its way to Germany at the time. I took my vehicle to the Honda dealer in Frankfurt, Germany. They performed the required work to update my recall. I believe, I'm waiting on the US to update the information as "Complete". I will be leaving Germany 3 May 2022 and will need to ship my vehicle prior to my departure. I can not ship it with an open recall. Please advice on what I need to do to get the proper documentation. Thank you!
Fuel rail low pressure. Low miles on this vehicle I bought for my wife. The two fuel pumps they run on 2017 Honda break a lot. Vehicle is now in limp mode until I can get it fixed.
REAR-BACKUP CAMERA WENT BLACK AFTER I DROVE CAR TO PICK UP SON AT FRIENDS HOUSE AT NIGHT CAMERA WORKED, PARKED CAR OVERNIGHT, WENT TO USE CAR NEXT MORNING REAR CAMERA INOP, I THOUGHT IT WAS FUSE SO I CHECKED FUSE, NOT BLOWN.TOOK CAR IN TO HONDA DEALERSHIP 2 DAYS LATER STATED IT WAS P&A DUE TO FAILURE, EST. AT OVER $700 TO REPLACE. VERY UNHAPPY SINCE CAR IS ONLY 4YRS OLD AND ONLY 40K MILES. HOW DO HONDA OWNERS KNOW THAT THIS YEAR CAMERA WAS NOT AFFECTED LIKE THE RECALL ON THE 2018'S. WHAT IF SOME 2017'S HAD THE DEFECTIVE CAMERAS INSTALLED, SO I CALLED HONDA WAS TOLD NO RECALL ON CAMERA, BROUGHT UP THE 2018/ RECALL TO THE REP AND SHE STATED THIS DID NOT AFFECT MY VIN#. I WAS NOT SATISFIED AND WANTED THIS ISSUE TO BE REVIEWED SINCE THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO THE CAMERA. I FEEL THIS IS AN ISSUE HONDA SHOULD RECTIFY DUE TO IT BEING A SAFETY ISSUE AND THE RECALLS ON OVER THOUSAND OF OTHER CAMERAS IN THEIR OTHER VEHICLES. HONDA SHOULD STAND BY THE OEM PARTS THAT CAME WITH THE VEHICLE AND CORRECT THE SAFETY ISSUE REGARDING REAR CAMERAS THAT STOP WORKING. THIS IS A MULTI-DOLLAR INDUSTRY BECAUSE OF THE EVERYDAY PEOPLE LIKE MYSELF THAT PURCHASE THESE VEHICLES AND THAT IS WHY I FEEL HONDA SHOULD BE MORE CONCERNED WITH THE SAFETY OF THEY DRIVERS AND OTHERS AROUND THEM AND ADD 2017 MODELS TO THEIR RECALL LIST INSTEAD OF MAKING THE CONSUMER PAY TO AN ABSURD AMOUNT OF MONEY TO FIX AN ISSUE WITH HONDA PARTS. HONDA NEEDS TO STAND BY THE CRAFTSMANSHIP OF THEIR PARTS AND VEHICLES JUST LIKE ANY OTHER BUSINESS AND MAKE IT RIGHT TO THE CONSUMER. I ALSO HAD ISSUES WHERE CAR WOULD FEEL LIKE IT WAS GOING TO DIE WHILE TURNING AND ACCELERATING, TOOK IT IN AND DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP, MADE IT SEEM LIKE THEY WERE DOING ME A FAVOR TO REPLACE IT SINCE IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY BY ONLY A FEW HUNDRED MILES WHEN IN FACT IT WAS A RECALL ON MY VIN#. IT HAS BEEN FIXED, DID I GET A LEMON?

FUEL DELIVERY IS STARVED AS IF THE FUEL PUMP IS FAILING CAUSING A DELAY IN ACCELERATION.
WHEN YOU LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL AND THEN REAPPLY THE CAR WILL NOT RESPOND. YOU HAVE TO KEEP PRESSING AND RELEASING THE GAS PEDAL TIL THE CAR RESPOND. IT DOES IT WHEN LEAVING FROM A STOP IN TRAFFIC AND IF YOU ARE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET.

I PURCHASED A USED 2017 HONDA ACCORD COUPE WITH A V6 ENGINE IN MAY 2020. IT HAS ALWAYS SLIGHTLY HESITATED AND STALLED DURING ALL SPEEDS OF ACCELERATION. MOST NOTABLE FROM A STOP, OR VERY SLIGHTLY TRYING TO ACCELERATE. I FOUND A JANUARY 29, 2019 NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V060000 AND A SERVICE BULLETIN OR SAFETY RECALL A19-016 DATED FEBRUARY 13, 2019 WAS ISSUED AND ON AUG 1, 2020, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP NEAR ME FOR THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE IT SEEMED TO BE GETTING WORSE. I WAS INFORMED ABOUT 6 HOURS LATER MY NECKLACE CHAIN HANGING ON THE REAR VIEW MIRROR WAS SHORTING OUT THE CAR CAUSING MY ACCELERATION PROBLEM AND CHARGED $340.00. I HAD MENTIONED BEFORE AND AFTER THIS DIAGNOSIS THAT A SAFETY RECALL ON THE FUEL PUMP WAS ISSUED TO THIS CAR AND WAS TOLD THE CHAIN ON MIRROR WAS THE PROBLEM. I WAS ACTUALLY GIVEN A PIECE OF MY CHAIN BACK WITH A SLIGHT EVENLY BURN MARK ON IT. I STILL HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND DON'T HAVE THE TIME OR MONEY TO GO BACK AND FORTH WITH THE DEALERSHIP ON GETTING THIS RESOLVED. MY VIN # DOES NOT SHOW A RECALL NEEDED PRESENTLY, BUT I CURRENTLY COMMUTE 120 MILES A DAY IN THIS VEHICLE AND PRAY MY PROBLEM WILL NOT WORSEN OR IT STOP ALL TOGETHER DURING THIS TIME. I COULD TRY AGAIN WITH ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, BUT DO I NEED HONDA TO ISSUE THIS RECALL TO MY VIN FIRST BEFORE I CAN GET THIS SAFETY ISSUE FIXED AT ONCE? PLEASE ADVISE ON MY CONCERNS AND THANK YOU

INTERMITTENT LOOSE POWER WHILE ACCELERATING, WHILE MAKING TURNS
I RECEIVED A CALL FROM MY DEALER STATING THAT MY CAR IS UNDER RECALL FOR A FUEL PUMP ISSUE; HOWEVER, I CAN'T FIND ANY INFORMATION ONLINE ABOUT SUCH A RECALL.

RODENT'S CHEWED A HOLE IN THE EVAP LINE COMING OFF THE FUEL TANK. 2552 MILES ON THE CAR. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE CORRUGATED EVAP LINE HAS A SOY BASED COATING. BECAUSE THIS LINE IS BUILT INTO THE FUEL TANK THE WHOLE FUEL TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. ESTIMATED COST IS $1552, NOT COVERED UNDER THE MANUFACTURE'S WARRANTY. VERY WORRIED A SIMILAR PROBLEM WILL HAPPEN WITH THE REPLACEMENT PART AND I'LL BE LOOKING AT MULTIPLE REPLACEMENTS. ASKING THE REPAIR SHOP TO TREAT THE NEW PART WITH HONDA'S RODENT DETERRENT TAPE PART # 4019-2317, BEFORE REINSTALLING.
ACCORDING TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER (HONDANATION KNOXVILLE), AND BASED ON MY OWN EXPERIENCE, THE 2017 HONDA ACCORDS HAVE A KNOWN "ACCELERATION LAG" PROBLEM. OFTEN WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STATIONARY POSITION, OR EVEN A SLOW-TURN OR MERGE POSITION, THERE CAN BE A 1 TO 3 SECOND DELAY BETWEEN PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR AND ACTUALLY GETTING THE CAR TO MOVE. THIS CAN PRESENT A HIGHLY SERIOUS SITUATION. IN EFFECT, THE CAR CAN STALL FOR A 1 TO 3 SECOND PERIOD WHILE ONCOMING TRAFFIC CLOSES IN ON YOU. SOMETIMES YOU CAN PRESS THE ACCELERATOR ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR WITH NO RESPONSE, ONLY TO HAVE THE CAR "LURCH" A SECOND OR TWO LATER. THE PROBLEM HAPPENS MOST FREQUENTLY IN CITY DRIVING AFTER THE CAR HAS WARMED UP. MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO KNOWN FIX FOR THIS WIDELY REPORTED PROBLEM. LOGIC SAYS THAT AT SOME POINT SOMEONE WILL BE SERIOUSLY INJURED BECAUSE OF THIS KNOWN ACCELERATION LAG PROBLEM AFFECTING LATE MODEL HONDAS.
