All Fuel/propulsion System Complaints (250)
Emissions and engine light turned on which caused enginue to lose power and stall. Took car to dealership for diagnosis, and two codes related to failed fuel injectors and failed turbocharger. Tech said it is a known failure with this vehicle model, especially with the Honda turbo engine, so much so the warranty was increased from 100,000 miles to 150,000. Unfortunately my car was 15,000 miles over warranty and will be a costly bill. Online research yielded that tech was right, it is a known failure issue with this model but I missed the warranty extension. If this is a known issue by the manufacturer, should this not he a recall issue?
I have a 2018 Honda Accord Sport 1.5 The issue started after getting my fuel pump replaced as part of the recall. While driving, all of the dashboard lights came on. Warning messages kept flashing on the dash. This car was driving perfectly fine before the fuel pump was replaced. When the codes are cleared, the car drives perfectly fine. The dashboard lights will periodically turn off but ultimately come back on and as a result, the car goes into limp mode. Coils, sparkplugs, breakers have been switched out and oil levels have been checked. When the car is scanned, the codes are reading a misfire with the coils but, the coils that are allegedly misfiring were JUST replaced. The car jerks while attempting to accelerate, and after a few miles, it goes into limp mode. I have tried every type of repair that has been suggested to me by the mechanic but the issues persist.

As I was driving myself and child on the interstate 65 mph the vehicle all of a sudden dropped speed and would not accelerate. I drifted the car off the interstate off ramp and pulled into a store parking lot. Luckily, we did not cause an accident or hit anything or anyone. All the lights on car's dashboard blinking some examples are EPS, VSA, Malfunction lamp, Breaking system, check engine light, etc. My car did not show that it was running hot, was not smoking, however would not accelerate. The car had a slight rattle, running bad, shaking slightly; all in all, not working appropriately. No earlier indication that something was wrong just came all of a sudden, no warning at all. Car was brought to Billy Navarre in Lake Charles, LA, where they concluded that head gasket was blown. I had to come out of pocket to fix the head gasket and all of the other problems that it caused. Car milage 84,097, bought brand new in 2018. This is a major safety issue for the public! Multiple people have this same problem. I have documentation on all the work the dealership completed. And I have filed a report to Honda.

In 2023, the car had a rough start during cold weather. Honda confirmed there was a service bulletin and told me my fuel injectors were likely failing. It’s a known issue. For 2 winters, I used Sea Foam to manage the problem. This winter, the dash completely lit up. I returned to Honda for an update to new version of the same service bulletin. They did the fix but it did not solve the problem. Tonight my car went into limp home mode and had to be towed to the mechanic for the fuel injector repair. We were on NC Interstate 540 when the car rapidly lost acceleration and luckily made it to a gas station for safe pick up. Me, my passenger and other drivers were all endangered the 3 times I had to pull over to stop and restart the car.

Lack of communication, refusal to address known safety issue. Should investigation/mandatory recall/coverage. Safety Risk: Sudden loss of power on highway = crash hazard. Spent $3,855+; car undrivable, family without vehicle to/from work. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S
The vehicle is misfiring due to faulty fuel injectors. Causing every light on the dash to come on.
After vehicle got serviced an open recall for fuel pump, my car has been having issues. I know is related to the head gasket/fuel injections. My car has been great, monthly maintenance service up until I got that recall fixed. I now regret it getting repaired, but I had to, to be able to receive my DMV tags. I was driving about 45 MPH and vehicle stopped accelerating will not speed over 20 MPH and the check engine light turned on. Just got full transmission flush and oil change and this happened. I read many article online that this happens after this recall repair to the ACCORD 1.5T EX2018
At just under 60,000 miles, the check engine light came on with 10 warnings all at once when the car was started. When I took it to Honda they said that 2 of the cylinders are misfiring and the fuel injectors need to be replaced. These are failing far too early on this model of vehicle and it is likely due to the recalled fuel injector that they took years to replace due to inventory. There should be a recall for the fuel injectors.
Several system warnings. Dealership diagnostic "bad fuel injectors" Vehicle has 62,735 miles.
The problem I am having with my vehicle Honda accord 2018 is with the head gasket. I was on the highway and as I was driving suddenly all the signs came on the display and gave a warning that my vehicle is overheating and it came down to 20mph while I was on the highway. This was very risky to me and the other vehicle around me.
Car has lost power or gone into "limp mode" while driving on multiple occasions. Car was never listed under the fuel pump recall but had all associated symptoms & problems. Had to have fuel pumps replaced in December 2023 due to car not starting because of faulty fuel pumps. Car has been properly maintenced since purchased brand new in February 2018. currently around 121,000 miles. Car overheated this past summer, Coolant seems to be leaking somewhere as just filled with coolant month ago and needed to refill with about quarter to refill to correct amount. Oil also seems to be having slow leakage problem somewhere within the engine as there is excessive oil on drip pan. Had all 4 spark plugs changed in March of 2025. Car has been going into limp mode and looses power for few seconds to minutes sometimes, almost causing multiple accidents while driving on highways. Pull over to shut off and give few minutes to restart and able to resume driving No warnings before this occurs. Randomly all dashboard lights light up 2 weeks ago and put car into limp mode, was driving on highway at high rate of speed (65mph) safety was compromised several times while this occurs. Engine seems create knocking sounds to known due to oil dilution problem. Cold weather seems to affect issues to onset more often. Also been having stalled or rough start ups in colder weather or when engine is not warmed up. Researching these issues seems to be that 2018 Honda Accords had known head gasket failure. This should become a class action lawsuit and also a recall
After having fuel pump replaced by recall at random times dashboard will light up with all system lights, car will go into limp mode and loose power for a few seconds and then I am able to resume driving. Extremely scary as there is no warning. This has happened both on the freeway at high rates of speed and on neighborhood roadways. Safety has been compromised several times and Honda dealer is not able to reproduce the issue, retrieve any warning codes or offer any assistance. This has randomly been occurring for several months. When not having this exact issue car runs with no other issues.
Engine knock caused by oil dilution which is known manufacturing issues with my model of car.
My car lost power while driving on multiple occasions. My car was originally on the fuel pump recall list but the dealership did not have the part for 6+ months. When the part did come in I found out my car was no longer on the recall list. I had to have my fuel pump injectors replaced due to a faulty fuel pump.
Emission system, low acceleration to the point it becomes a safety hazard in the freeway, I almost got rear ended twice, the car jolts, it stops out of no where, head gasket issues at only 65k. Maintenance was kept up but there’s a Facebook group called Honda sport 2018 to 22 on these models of the same issue “Christmas tree lights”
I own a 2018 Honda Accord that was subject to a fuel pump recall. The dealership replaced the fuel pump in July 2025 as part of the recall. Shortly after the replacement, all dashboard warning lights illuminated. I took the vehicle in for diagnostic inspection and was informed that the fuel injector and head gasket had failed. The estimated cost of repairs is $5369.69. I believe these failures may be related to the fuel system recall or indicate a broader defect in the vehicle’s engine or fuel components. I am deeply concerned about the safety and reliability of the vehicle, especially since these issues arose immediately after the recall repair. I am currently unable to afford the repair, and I fear the vehicle may pose a risk to myself and others on the road. This situation has caused me significant stress and anxiety. The unexpected financial burden has disrupted my personal and professional life, and I feel unsafe driving a vehicle that may have underlying defects. I am frustrated that a recall repair may have led to even more severe mechanical issues, and I am left without clear support or resolution. I had no choice but to pay for the repairs out of pocket, despite the financial strain. I am seeking guidance on how this cost might be recovered—whether through manufacturer assistance, warranty extension, or further recall action. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate whether this issue is connected to the existing recall or represents a wider safety defect affecting other vehicles of the same make and model.
While accelerating car jerks at times. At time car will go in limp mode I’ll have to safely try to get to side of road turn car off. Restart and continue driving. I’ve changed spark plugs, coil packs, turbo, fuel injectors, fuel pump and battery. I continue to put money into my car and nothing helps.

I have a 2018 Honda accord 1.5t I have always done oil changes and maintenance accordingly. My car went into limp mode over the summer. I brought it to my dealership who said the head gasket was bad and it was going to cost over 5,000$ to fix. This is a known problem on these cars as I have gathered information all over the internet. Honda refuses to do the right thing and have a recall. I do not have the money to replace the head gasket at the hefty dealership level. I have been waiting over 3 months in an attempt of a DIY replacement. The company I have been ordering with has had many issues and I am still without a vehicle. The vehicle only has 138,000 miles
The fuel injectors became faulty at about 90,000 miles, a mechanic could not identify the issue until about 110,000 miles. A blow head gasket followed.
Bad fuel injectors reported by diagnostic testing done by Honda dealership after recall was completed on fuel pump. All warning lights on dashboard lite up and multiple warnings from car. This is a known issue with these specific Honda engines. Very costly repairs that if not completed can cause other engine issues.
I own a 2018 Honda Accord EX-L equipped with the 1.5-liter turbo engine. Over time, the vehicle began showing symptoms of coolant loss without any visible leaks, a sweet odor under the hood, and intermittent white smoke from the exhaust after startup. The engine would sometimes idle roughly and hesitate under acceleration. No external leaks were found by my mechanic. I later learned that these symptoms are consistent with a possible head-gasket or coolant-intrusion issue affecting this engine type. The problem poses a potential safety risk because coolant can enter the combustion chambers, leading to engine misfire, loss of power, or complete engine failure while driving. The issue has not yet been formally recalled, but I have seen multiple complaints and reports of similar failures in 2018–2022 Accords, Civics, and CR-Vs with the same 1.5-liter turbo engine. A warning light (“check engine”) appeared intermittently, and the temperature gauge fluctuated during normal driving. The problem has been inspected by an independent repair shop, but Honda has not provided a permanent repair or warranty coverage. The issue appears to be consistent with the allegations in recent class action filings regarding head-gasket and coolant-leak defects in Honda 1.5T engines.
Head gasket leak after replacing recalled fuel pump. Took my car in for safety recall on fuel pump, just 24 hrs later every check engine light came on and my vehicle slowed to a stop (car went into limp mode). This happened on a busy street with vehicles flying by. I had my vehicle towed to Lancaster Honday (CA) where they did my safety recall the day before, they confirmed the head gasket leak. I had my vehicle diagnostics done at a different place as well and they confirmed the bad news, but also said this should not be happening to a new car with 66,000 miles. They advised I call corporate Honda and have them do a goodwill repair where the pay the repair since it is out of its 60,000 miles warranty. I had zero symptoms of this happening before it actually happened. I regularly had maintenance done on my car. I am very dissatisfied and disappointed that Honda just declined my goodwill repair after a month of waiting on them to “review the case”. I couldn’t be more sad and more screwed at this time. $5000 is not something I have right now to take care of something I shouldn’t have to. This is only happening to 1.5 liter Hondas in my certain year range. I wanted a 2.0 originally, but the dealership did not have any at the time so I am needing help. I will reach out to the ongoing pending lemon law case in CA to join the base and try to get my car fixed and have Honda do the right thing! I am not happy!
Driving on highway, check engine light went on and car lost all power would not go over 5 mph scared for my life as I was almost hit by other vehicles traveling at hi rates of speed . I managed to get the car to the shoulder. I turned the car off and restarted, and the car went back to operating normal. Car was checked by a friend who is a mechanic, and he told me there were codes for misfires after checking all the issues that could cause that type of problem he informed me that a pressure test on the coolant system revealed a blown head gasket which allowed coolant to leak in the cylinders causing miss fires due to the anti freeze extinguishing the spark of the spark plugs. I researched this matter and it's see to be a very common problem with many hondas with the 1.5 engine
Coolant leaking into head gasket which now needs to be replaced as it’s causing the whole car to shudder when acclerating and when not letting off the gas the check engine light will come on and the car will not drive anymore. It then needs to be turned off and on again to go away and won’t fix the issue with the studdering.
My 2018 Honda Accord EX is currently having FUEL injector problems at 41,000 miles. Honda is trying to tell me that FUEL injectors do NOT get affected by the recalled FUEL pump. This is very silly because the FUEL pump and FUEL injectors work together. They want $1,800 to replace the FUEL injectors at Honda. I already completed the recall on the FUEL pump, and afterward, they told me my injector was running too rich and needed to be replaced for $1800. There are so many Honda 1.5Ts experiencing these same issues, and Honda does not want to do anything about it. I am currently taking my car to a local shop to get the FUEL injectors replaced for $1,327. I believe I should be reimbursed since the FUEL pump is what caused my FUEL injectors to fail. Honda is trying to tell me that two FUEL components of a car don’t correlate with each other? This isn’t fair, and I need to be reimbursed.
I own a 2018 Honda Accord Sport. About 2–3 months ago, the car began having repeated engine misfires (P0301), hesitation, and stalling while driving. At the same time, multiple dashboard warnings appear, including Steering Assist Reduced, Brake System Problem, Collision Mitigation Braking System Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control System Problem, Emission System Problem, and Hill Start Assist Problem, these failures occur suddenly while the vehicle is in motion, creating a serious risk of loss of engine power, reduced braking performance, loss of steering assist, and disabled crash-avoidance systems. I have already performed extensive maintenance: new ignition coils, a full tune-up, compression test, spark test, and battery/alternator check, yet the issues remain. Diagnostic scans also showed U0416-68 (invalid data from ABS/VSA module) in addition to the misfire. This suggests not only a fuel/propulsion defect but also a possible computer/control module failure that links engine, brakes, steering, and ADAS systems. These conditions match known recalls for the Accord, including 23V858000 (fuel pump failure), 20V314000 (low-pressure fuel pump), and 20V771000 (BCM software issue), yet my VIN does not currently show as included. The fact that multiple critical safety systems fail simultaneously makes this a major safety hazard that could easily lead to an accident if the car stalls, loses braking, or loses steering assist in traffic. I opened a case with Honda Customer Service (Case #15868389), but they refused to cover the repair since my VIN is not listed, despite the failures being identical to those described in the recalls. I strongly believe my vehicle should be included, and I request that NHTSA investigate whether the recall VIN range needs to be expanded.
When it is cold outside my ACC light comes on and when I started my car the other day it read Emissons Service Problem Avoid Heavy Acceleration and High Speed. That was just 1 among 7 other service warning that popped up.
This car is known for its faulty engine. The head gasket tends to blow as early as 40k miles, plenty of people have had this problem and yet there is no recall for the engine or a fix. I was driving on the highway and i was speeding up to merge into traffic and my check engine light started to flash and my car went into limp mode on the highway luckily there wasn't a lot of traffic and i got the chance to pull over and restart my car. i looked online and plenty of people were experiencing this same problem they all had the same answer as well, a blown head gasket. I'm just wondering if someone has to pass away before this gets fixed.
Date of Incident: [XXX] Vehicle Information: 2018 Honda Accord VIN: [XXX] Incident Location: North Charleston, SC Estimated Vehicle Mileage at Incident: 78,000 miles On [XXX], while starting and driving my vehicle less than one mile, the engine would not accelerate above 10 MPH. Following this, multiple service alerts illuminated on the dashboard. The vehicle was inoperable and had to be towed to Hendrick Honda of Charleston. The diagnosed issue is a leaking cylinder head gasket. This is the second major engine-related issue this year. In May 2025, I paid over $2,000 to repair a faulty fuel sensor injector. This current repair is estimated to cost over $5,000, bringing my total repair costs for this year to over $7,000 for a five-year-old vehicle with just 78,000 miles. This recurring pattern of significant and costly engine failures, particularly the cylinder head gasket leak, indicates a serious safety defect. It is not an isolated incident, as evidenced by publicly filed NHTSA complaints (ID: 11677717) for the same make, model, and year with similar engine failure issues at comparable mileage. The sudden loss of acceleration and inoperability pose a direct safety hazard. I am requesting an investigation into this defect and seeking full reimbursement for the recent and past repairs, totaling over $7,000. These are clearly not standard wear-and-tear issues and should be addressed by the manufacturer. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
I was contacted by Royal Honda (Honda of Harvey, Louisiana) about an urgent fuel pump recall on my vehicle. Harris first through text then receive the phone callInstead of scheduling the recall repair, the dealership used the recall notice as leverage to push a $19.95 oil change special. The representative told me they could “set me up for the oil if I scheduled the recall,” but their focus was on selling the oil change, not correcting the urgent safety recall. When I declined the oil change, they said they were having “technical difficulties,” promised to call me back, and never did. As a result, my recall remains unresolved. This is a misuse of federally mandated recall notices for sales purposes, and it delays urgent safety repairs. Requested Action: Investigate Honda of Harvey / Royal Honda for using recall notifications as a sales tactic and ensure my recall is completed promptly.
Check Engine Lights Turned On and Turned Off all advance features on car because of a faulty fuel injector which is the stock fuel injectors that were designed by Honda
While trying to accelerate the car loses power. This has happened many times. The Honda dealership has said the system is on back order and they will call me when it’s available. It’s been months. The “jerks”a few times then the check engine light comes on then the car loses power. The dashboard lights are brake system, emission system, electric power steering, hill assist and ACC system problem.
- Year: 2018 - Make: Honda - Model: Accord Sport 1.5 Turbo - Vehicle Identification Number : [XXX] I am writing to report a safety concern with my 2018 Honda Accord Sport 1.5 Turbo. The vehicle has developed a head gasket problem, which has resulted in significant engine issues. Additionally, I have experienced fuel injector problems, leading to decreased fuel efficiency and rough engine performance. Despite following the recommended maintenance schedule and addressing the issues with the dealer, the problems persist. I have been quoted $7,800 for repairs, which is unacceptable given the vehicle's age and mileage (currently 114,848 miles). I am concerned about the safety and reliability of the vehicle, especially when driving on the highway. The vehicle's blown head gasket has caused ¹: - Loss of power, leading to potential safety issues on the road - Engine hesitation and shutdown while driving, which can increase the risk of accidents I request that NHTSA investigate this matter further and take necessary actions to address the recurring issues with the 2018 Honda Accord 1.5 Turbo engine. I would appreciate guidance on potential next steps to resolve this issue and ensure the vehicle's safety and reliability. - Repair estimates and records from the dealer - Maintenance records, including oil changes and fuel system cleanings - Correspondence with Honda dealership and corporate office Other owners have reported similar issues with the 2018 Honda Accord 1.5 Turbo, including fuel injector problems and blown head gaskets ² ³ ⁴.

Car stalled/went into limp mode in the middle of turning onto a busy road almost hit by oncoming traffic. Check engine light came on, as well as all other warnings. Ran diagnostics and show fuel running lean and cyl 2 misfire. Checked all other possible issues related to codes and all signs point to bad fuel injectors.
I currently own a 2018 Honda Accord 1.5L 4 cylinder with only 62,800 miles at the start of the issue. Around the end of July 2025 the car started to jerk. It started with a slight jerk and escalated daily, over about a week, until the car started going into limp mode. The car was taken to a repair shop near my house. This shop said they were receiving an engine misfire code, replaced all spark plugs, and car driving good again. Around 8/15/2025, I started having the same issues. On 8/19/25 the car went into limp mode again in a busy highway. Took it to a Honda/Acura repair shop. They again found the same misfire codes, replaced 1 spark plug, and the car was driving okay. This Honda/Acura shop found low coolant in the engine and believed I had a leaking head gasket as they have been seeing a high number of Honda 1.5L engines, similar years, with this issue. The shop suggested I contact Honda as it is a known issue. On 8/19, the Honda dealer service department told me they are seeing a lot of that issue but Honda has no current plan to extend warranties or issue a recall, despite the widespread, known issue. The dealership’s service department instructed me to call Honda corporate to discuss the issue and potential coverage. Corporate did open a case for a potential Good Faith repair. I was told that I would have to take it to a Honda dealership for official diagnostics, pay that fee out of pocket, then submit documents and info for coverage review. The car was driving okay for about 1 week and on 8/27/25, began having the same problems. I was able to get an appointment on 9/2/25 at the dealership. On 9/2/25, the dealership confirmed the head gasket is bad and the car requires head gasket, head bolt, belts, fuel injector, and coolant replacement, and oil change. The dealership again acknowledged this is a known issue with the vehicle. These vehicles are stopping on busy highways (with speed limit of 50mph) and interstates or going into limp mode, not going over 20mph.
my 2018 Honda Accord is having major engine problems. Earlier this year all of the lights were coming on, 7 of them at a time, and that happened for a few weeks before it started overheating. If I was driving over 50mph, it wouldn't overheat, but if I was driving slow or idling, it was overheating within minutes. I took it to the shop in June where they discovered there was NO COOLANT inside the engine. they put 1.5 gallons of coolant in there, and it fixed the problem temporarily, but 2 weeks ago, all of the lights started coming on again. I called my mechanic, and he said his friend had a 2018 Honda Accord that was doing the same thing and that we need to approach Honda and ask them to fix the problem. turns out a lot of other people on the internet are reporting the exact same problem in their 2018 Honda Accords too, and there's even a class action floating somewhere out there because coolant is leaking into the chambers. we already had a fuel injector recall replaced by Honda last year.
I got this car April 2024. By December I went to the Honda dealer for the recall even though nothing was wrong with the car. After December, when I got the recall fast forward to February. My engine is stalling. I could be pulling out my driveway and it’s stalling. I could be going 10 MPH and it’s stalling. I was coming off a ramp and almost got smacked by a 18 wheeler because it started stalling as I’m coming off the ramp. It break checked me on 5th ave. I was driving. No car in front of me. But a car in the back of me. And it just broke on me. Out of no where. Almost causing the Mercedes Benz to hit me. Luckily they were paying attention. I keep taking it to my mechanic. They are seeing nothing wrong. They don’t want to fix something that’s not broken also after I did the recall for the fuel pump. Now all these lights pop up on my dash. Driving used to be fun. Now it’s getting real scary. I am going to go back to the Honda dealer and see what they tell me but I did look up they have to keep fixing it until it’s fixed. Fingers crossed. I can’t get another car and I also can’t keep driving like this. It’s going to cause an accident.

The engine coolant began to leak into the cylinders of the engine. The engine began to overheat in the middle of the freeway. I had to shutdown the car down and get it towed. The car is available for inspection. Yes, my safety was at risk. Diagnostics from the dealership indicated that the problem is a design flaw with the head gasket being too thin. There were no indications that the car was going to stall until after it stalled. Honda is putting our lives at risk by allowing citizens to drive a car that has an engine become locked/stall/overheat by design and without warning.
While accelerating uphill approximately 65 mph the car suddenly started to shutter and slow down to 35 mph. I forced me to move rapidly over to the right lane on a busy highway almost getting hit by a semi truck. Luckily I was able move to the shoulder and park the vehicle. I shut the vehicle off and tried to start it back up which it did but struggled to turn over. Using my OBDII scanner I found that multiple codes had appeared which included P0087 Fuel Rail/System Pressure to low and P0299 Turbocharger Underboost. Vehicle was towed to my residence where it currently sits until I am able to repair it. Prior to this happening there were No warning lamps or messages or symptoms. The failures first appeared while driving up hill. It was not inspected by manufacturer, police, or insurance. The problem was not taken to dealer or independent service center to confirm since the car is out of warranty and cost to diagnose is ridiculously high. I myself diagnosed the failures and found that the mechanical fuel pump Part# 16790-5PC-H02 seized up and was not providing enough fuel to engine. And diagnosed that the waste gate actuator arm was to loose due to worn out bushings. (Poor engineering in my opinion since there is no way to replace just the bushings on the actuator causing customers to replace the entire turbo.) After replacing the mechanical fuel pump the vehicle was able to start up without issue and drives perfectly fine. I currently still have the fuel pump and the turbo is still in the vehicle if needed for inspection.
If car is idling for over 1 minute, all lights on dash come on. When all lights on, car wont wont go over mph, car will randomly sputter in highway when going over 1rpm and will stall randomly. Reported on reddit by multiple people and when I went in to get it diagnosed it was the fuel injector issue
Fuel pump recall. Put in an order with Honda dealer January 2024 for the pump. On February 2025 asked if they submitted the order back in January 2024? They said it was. Now it's August 2025 (20 months since) and waiting. NHTSA says if they failed to fix in a timely manner to make a report online. Is 20 months long enough? Driving with a safety recall. Second making a complaint with the 10 speed auto transmission 2nd to 3rd hard shift and 4th to 3rd hard shift. Putting stress on other components can break mounts, the transmission, axles, ect. could also launch the car into the car in front of you, in heavy (slow bumper to bumper) traffic. Wasted my own money and time draining and filling 5 quarts of honda 2.0 transmission fluid. (Also replaced the trans filter behind the warmer housing) Did not fix the issue. Contacted American Honda and they said It's out of warranty and I need to pay for diagnostic and repairs. (I just bought the car in 2023 at 45k miles. Previous owner must of felt it and should of did something while under warranty.) Honda know this issue from the beginning and hiding the issue to save money. Check the Accord forums online. It's most of us if not all the 18-20 10 speed models. Vehicle is 2018 Accord 2.0 10 speed 50k miles. Plus the normal Phantom braking and lane departure which will automatically steer you off the road, so you have to fight the steering wheel.
This car came with problem and i want to this if honda can fix it for free since its they mistake
Vehicle had a sudden loss of power. Pulled over on highway had to restart. Engine warning said Emission system problem. Had diagnostic done several codes PO300,PO301,PO302,PO303,PO304,PO172. Problem seems to be similar to the service bulletin 22-002 dated Feb 18,22 for the Honda Accord 2015-2016. It seems to be a known issue with this engine. Honda should take care of this safety issue.
Honda has known for years that the 1.5L engines installed in 2018 or newer Honda Accords have issues with oil dilution causing major catastrophic engine failures, head gasket damage, fluids leaking into the cylinders, and costly repairs to cars with less than 86000 miles on them. Honda Corporation needs to address this concern before someone dies when the cars engine fails on the highway. My vehicles engine failed on a major road when I pushed on the gas peddle and had no power due to these concerns. Dealership stated numerous vehicles are coming in with these concerns right now which begs the question that it is not a one off situation but a failure of Honda Corporation.
While attempting to pass a slower vehicle in my 2018 Honda Accord with a 1.5L engine, the suddenly lost power and stalled down to 20 mph while I was alongside the other vehicle. This unexpected power loss put my life and the lives of others at serious life threatening risk. I immediately brought the care to a Honda dealership, where the tech was able to reproduce the issue. The performed a borescope inspection and confirmed that coolant was present inside one of the cylinders, indicating a failed cylinder head gasket. This type of failure should not happen, especially on a vehicle like this. I was the repair would cost $6,500. After researching, I learned that this is a known defect affecting the 1.5L engine and that multiple class action lawsuits have been filed. I also discovered that American Honda is aware of the problem and has instructed dealership service departments to report affected vehicles. In fact, they have even offered gift cards to service advisors who report these cases, but are charging customers for the repairs. That's nonsense. Just do a simple google search and you will discover what I did. During the failure, the check engine light and several other warning lights came on but only the check engine remained on. Since then the car has multiple indicator lights on. Despite multiple attempts to follow-up, the dealership has refused to return my calls. This is a serious life threatening safety concern that deserves immediate investigation. Thank you.

Vibration in car took it to dealership but still can't figure out what's causing to vibrate so much when driving and idling.
2018 Honda Accord 1.5T EX trim and I had a head gasket completely blown at around 82,600 miles. I, alongside with many many other 1.5T Accord owners, am experiencing this head gasket issue for such a low milage vehicle and it is simply inacceptable and Honda seems to be entirely ignoring this widespread, recurring problem on this engine. Reaching out and file a report in hopes of getting this to Honda's attention so they can address this asap. It has been 7 years since this problem and nothing has changed, which is not okay.
Head gasket blown
2/24/2025 Safety Recall work performed at Honda Marin; change Fuel Pump per recall. 4/28/2025 I reported vehicle stalling/misfiring, decelerating on its own and all lights keep coming on as a result of Fuel Pump change. Marin Honda performed cleaning of battery cables; technician claims nothing is wrong with the car. [XXX] car stalled at intersection, I went back to Honda Marin and reported vehicle is still having the same previous issues and complained that this is dangerous to have the car automatically decelerated on its own. This time I requested only for a diagnostic from Honda Marin. They spoke to my mom, who was not authorized to approve any work on my car, stated no blown head gaskets but mis-firing on cylinder 3, fixed the issue, passed pressure test(s), no leaks; and car was up to factory specks costs $2812.77 charged to my mom. 6/03/2025 brought car back to Honda Marin, same issues; service dept. road tested for 4 miles and stated the car was working as normal. 6/11/2025 told Honda Marin that the car is stalling and misfiring again; car shut down while on freeway; Honda Marin claimed problem was a punctured hose, charged $10.34 car up to factory specks. 6/12/2025 Brought car back to Honda Marin; still misfiring, stalling and dash lights coming on. Car will not accelerate past 3000rpm.; car shut down while in far left land on the [XXX] going to Marin County. Honda Marin performed leaked down test failed cylinder #4; blown head gasket; verbal quote approximately $5500.00 to fix. In addition to engine failures I had battery issues as well. Per reddit threads others too are having very similar issues, once the fuel pump is replaced, unexpected additional costs and safety failures often occur. This is a Honda Manufacturing Defect, the original fuel pumps are defective, causing a direct impact on the performance of the engine, unexpected damages which is leading to major financial and safety costs to the consumer.

July 10th Honda went into limp mode as I accelerated would not drive over 20. Check engine light flashed on then off. Have taken car in several times no codes can be read. Believe it’s cylinder issues or fuel possible head gasket. All vehicle lights has displayed haven’t been able to get reads once car is turned off. Too many issues with no repair fix.
I never was informed about the fuel pump recall , all the lights on my car came on , acceleration was slower , car was jerking , and when taking it to Honda they stated 2 of my cylinders has a misfire and water or coolant leaked and blew my head gasket , the car never ran hot and the guy asked did any light come on and I told him for some old reason every light on the dash was on and the car is vibrating while even in park reverse and when it's moving . I've read up on this and there are numerous of people with this same issue and this should mean something , Honda stated it would cost 6000 to fix when they should have already been warning people of the matter ahead of time . For some odd reason the car would just drive 10mph when I am driving jumping out in traffic having to pull over and restart the car . Guy at Honda even stated fuel pump could have been the issue and they have witness this with other cars like mine
all lights on dash are on at the same time
All lights in dash is on took it to honda they playing a guessing game injectors head gasket sensors they really don’t know many people are complaining with the same problems

I took vehicle in because of all the sensors were going off. Honda ran a systems check and said fuel injectors needed to be replaced. It is all over the internet that this is a known issue and a recall was not issued. I spent $1500 on the replacement. These should not need replacing on an 18 accord with 80,000 miles. The recall on the fuel pump has not been addressed because Honda has limited parts. How do I know this did not affect the fuel injectors
Apparently the coolant is leaking into chamber 2 and 3 and it’s burning it and I need to replace the head gasket. Spoke to and looked up a bunch of other people have had this same issue. It’s causing my car to stutter and it’s scary.
Hello, the fuel pump which is recalled on my vehicle failed and was replaced with an aftermarket pump so I could take it to the dealership. Once I took it the dealership refused to go ahead with the recall and basically told me it’s not their problem. They are required to get it done for customers but they refused to fix mine.
UNKNOWN I received the notice that there was an active recall on my 2018 Honda about the 1.5 Fuel Pump. I have scheduled several appointments to fix this, only for Honda to cancel all appointments related to the recall, stating they didn't have the part. I was headed to work, and every light on the dashboard that could come up, came up. There were several warning lights from brakes, transmission, collision, engine, etc. I took the car to the dealership, and they discovered that the fuel injector was the culprit. I am outraged because they're denying there's a connection, and I believe otherwise.
Various 2018-2022 Honda Accord owners had fuel injector failures caused by the faulty factory fuel pump molding. The fuel pump has been recalled; however, not before the fuel injectors fail. My Accord recently got an array of warning lights pop up on the dash while driving on the highway. I read the code and it was a cylinder 3 misfire. A diagnosis has led to the discovery that the fuel injectors are failing, most likely because of the bad fuel pump molding affecting the pressure of the fuel lines. Not only could this have led to my car stalling on the highway, it led to a complete disabling of my safety features while driving. Honda should be held responsible for the fuel injectors failing caused directly by their fuel pump molding deviation.
All lights on dash Illuminated. They have come on several times. While driving. You don’t know if brakes, engine, acceleration will work. Limp mode activates or not. Fuel injector seems to be a problem with misfiring or some other issue

My vehicle is stalling out. The engine failed. I was traveling and had to pull off the interstate and stop and restart vehicle. It was very dangerous as traffic was going at a high rate of speed. Yes the vehicle has been confirmed by a dealer. Yes all the warning lights are on in the vehicle.
This car had a manufacturer recall for the "fuel pump". I was advised by Honda to go get the car checked by the dealer to evaluate if the issues I was getting were related to the recall. I paid close to $400 to get the car diagnosed and about 3/4 months after that I was told that the part is available for the recall service. I got the repair scheduled at the dealership and got the part replaced. Ever since I got this fuel pump replaced, now the car is struggling to pickup. It looks like a miss fire but it doesn't show any errors on display. In this condition, this car is not safe to drive around as it is skipping the engine thrusts. I have looked at Honda website and other online resources and people are talking about these issues but HONDA hasn't said or done anything about it. It all started after I got the fuel filter replaced.

About a week ago my all my dash lights came on dash. Doing some research I found there was a safety recall on my vehicle that I did not know about. I scheduled an appointment with Honda to get it replaced, they informed me that the fuel injectors needed to replaced and were causing misfires. They claim this is not directly correlated to the recall but I believe that it is
Warning lights come all across the dash stating to see the dealer. I have taken it to the dealership and the issue is the fuel injector that causes the warning lights to go off and on at random. I still have a warranty of my car and was told the warranty does not cover that part. This is happening to a lot of honda accords but there is no recall for it. There is a safety issue for driving because they stay on and then go off and come back on again. This is unfortunate and unacceptable from Honda as a whole. I bought the car in May 2024 and the warning lights came on a week later and have been ever since off and on.
My vehicle is experiencing engine hesitation and it's getting worse every day I drive my car. This is a known side effect of the Honda Safety Recall notice I originally received in February of 2024. I received initial notification of a safety recall for my Honda vehicle in February of 2024 and it stated the safety issues of a possible faulty fuel pump modular. The letter expressed that they have no available parts but were working on getting them. I then received a 2nd letter regarding the fuel pump in May of 2024 and that parts were limited so they were focusing on customers who were experiencing side effect/safety issues with their car. I then received a 3rd letter in November of 2024 stating parts were ready and I just needed to contact my local Honda dealership to have my fuel pump modular replaced free of charge. I have called my dealership on at least two different occasions and have also taken my car in to Honda since then for general maintenance (oil change) and I keep being told they do not have the parts. The last time I spoke with them, I keep getting told that they do not have the parts. I am also always told they will probably call me in a couple weeks when they have the part but I never received that phone call from them. I can never seem to get a straight answer from them and am always told another excuse as to why my car and my family's safety is not important enough for them. I've even been told some of those replacement fuel pumps are needed for their newer cars.
Vehicle cranks, will not start. Dealership says the fuel pump is good but the module needs replaced. Vehicle died on the highway.
Apparently the recall was fix with the fuel system, however the car is still losing power as you drive it.
I got a recall notice for my car for fuel pump which I got it fixed but now the dealership is saying I got fuel injector issues with head gasket issues. I have also read online that lot of people are having exactly this problem, their fuel pump injectors are also failing with head gasket on the 2018 Honda Accord and Honda is requesting $2000 in fixes
Cylinder 1 and Cylinder 3 misfire (Cylinder 3 misfired multiple times, even after attempts to fix it), and now I have a blown head gasket. On more than three separate occasions, my car has either stopped completely in the middle of the road—sometimes on the highway in the fast lane, with cars traveling 80+ mph behind me, putting my life at significant risk—or it will suddenly drop from the speed of traffic (80+ mph) to under 30 mph in a matter of seconds, out of nowhere. If it weren't for me swerving into an open lane to the right one time, I would have undoubtedly been rear-ended by a car traveling 80 mph. In that instance, my speed went from 0 mph to less than 30 mph in just seconds, which could have easily paralyzed me or even killed me had I hit my head on impact. Though I didn’t sustain a physical injury the first time this happened on the freeway, I did suffer a panic attack due to the sudden and extreme danger of the situation. Yes, the problem has been confirmed by two separate Honda dealerships at different times, but both were caused by the same issue. The vehicle has been inspected by the manufacturer, as I had it checked at two different Honda dealerships. No, there were no warning messages or symptoms prior to the failure; all issues occurred suddenly while driving, when my car barely started producing any power on the freeway.
For the past four months, my check engine light has been turning on and off. One morning in traffic, my car suddenly went into limp mode. Fortunately, I was able to make it slowly yet safely to the nearest parking lot, but I had to get the car towed to different mechanics. Each one diagnosed a cylinder 4 misfire after running the computer diagnostics and checking multiple possible causes under the hood. A retired Honda mechanic mentioned he had seen this issue before and identified the fuel injector as the cause. When I researched my car on the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) website, I found two different recalls. One related to fuel injector module failure and another for the fuel injector assembly. However, when I contacted Honda with this information, I was told that my VIN does not currently fall under the recall, despite experiencing the same exact issues. I was advised to get a diagnostic at a Honda dealership, which would cost a few hundred dollars, and then to submit a Goodwill request online, which is an unnecessarily lengthy process. I am requesting that Honda inspect this issue and add my VIN number to the recall, so I do not have to continue spending more money on a problem that appears to be a known defect.
While driving my 2018 Honda Accord, I suddenly lost the ability to accelerate when pressing the gas pedal. At the same time, the check engine light came on, along with multiple other warning lights, which caused the advanced driver assistance systems to stop working. This put my safety at risk, as I was unable to speed up in traffic, creating a dangerous situation. A dealership confirmed that the issue was due to a fuel injector failure, which occurred just days after I had the fuel pump replaced under a recall. Before the failure, the only warning signs were the check engine light and an “Emissions System Problem” message. I believe this issue may be directly related to the faulty fuel pump, which Honda delayed in replacing. If 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.
Gasket headed
Engine can randomly blow a turbo of head gasket while traveling on freeway making you stranded in middle of the freeway and disable all the safety features while doing so. Extremely danger
The components and systems that are failing and malfunctioning in my 2018 Honda Accord are the engine, head gasket, fuel, injectors and turbo. While in motion, the car jerks and has issues with acceleration requiring the safety hazard lights to be come on and I’m unable to keep up with marked speed limit while traveling due to the sluggishness of the vehicle. The majority of these issues have been confirmed by a Honda dealership as well as another car shop. There are several warning and safety hazard lights that come on and go off the dashboard. Many times, I have to pull on the side of the road due to not being able to drive this vehicle.
There is a recall for the fuel pump on Honda Accords. When Honda replaces the fuel pump, the fuel injectors starts misfiring. All the warning lights start goin on. The car says it is not safe to drive and to go to the dealer. The car is not safe to drive, after the fuel pump replacement. Customers have to pay around $2000 + $130-$150 for diagnostic analysis to get injectors replaced. It should have been part of the recall. This issue doesn't start until the fuel pump is replaced.

While waiting for the recalled parts to be in stock for the fuel pump module, my car starting running rough and going into limp mode several times a day. Thus causing near accidents with my children in the vehicle. After getting the fuel pump module recall fixed I asked and had to pay for a diagnostics test to see what was causing the car to do this. We were told it was the fuel injectors and were quoted $2000 to replace those. That was done 4 days ago at the dealer, and it happened again yesterday! We took the car back to the dealer today and they have just informed us we need to replace the head gasket & turbo and had a coolant leak causing these issues?! Why that was never seen in the original diagnostics test nor a problem 4 days ago, but after spending $2000 we did not have to keep our family and others safe, we are now being told it will cost over $5000 to fix these now issues. We can’t afford that and now I don’t know what I am going to do! Honda needs to step up to the plate and take some culpability here and be responsible for what clearly appears to be a much needed recall for 2018 Accords! This is ridiculous. And for the service advisor to tell us this happens all of the time to these, if not daily, should speak volumes!
Three times, while driving, the car went into limp mode and would not accelerate. Had to pull over, turn car off, and back on to fix the issue. Have had it looked at and they have mentioned engine coils and a new control module. Had it at the dealership in January and they did their full inspection and to fix fuel pump recall and didn’t mention any issues regarding this.
My vehicle was under a recall for about 9months waiting for parts for Fuel pump to be available ( recall # 23v-858) to be available. While driving my vehicle went into LIMP mode in the middle of the highway causing me to swerve and have to off-ramp quickly to avoid high speed traffic. After my recall was completed January/25 my fuel injectors are starting to fail and same situation as before Limo mode in the middle of the high way. This is a domino effect from the fuel pump. Since the vehicle had a faulty fuel pump it caused an issue in the pressure and function of the fuel injectors. I find it outrageous for the consumer to have to pay for a safety issue that was cause by the company’s faulty part and lack of agility to react and fix the issue before it effected other parts. This has been a none issue in this vehicle but yet the consumer is the one have to pay 6k out of pocket to get it fixed.
I received a Honda Safety Recall saying that fuel pump module may have been improperly moldered and could make it inoperable. On several occasions I have attempted to make service appointments with Piazza Honda of Limerick, which they have refused to help. They kept saying they didn't have the parts and when they did, they would let me know. I called 5-6 times and they kept saying the same thing. They were also the same dealership that when my car experienced a lot of the issues that were related to the fuel pump earlier in 2024, they fixed for me for around $2000. This is the only service center local to me and they're blatant disregard to repair a known safety issues after multiple attempts to schedule an appointment with them has led to this complaint.
Last year my car had a Recall for the fuel pump, I called my dealership in Branford CT to get this issues resolved. They kept pushing me off telling me they did not have the parts and to call back in October. I called back in October for them to tell me the will not be replacing my fuel pump because the recall ended. Well this year my Car started stalling, would not turn on, and the lights on my dashboard were all lighted up. I took it to Branford dealership Honda, where I always do and they told me it was a battery issues and made me pay almost $300 for that. A week later my car started the same issues and now told me it’s related to the fuel injectors, spark plugs, and pump and wanted to charge me over 2k. If my car was fixed when the recall came out I probably wouldn’t have this issue. I called American Honda and spoke to Jenna who was very rude, case [XXX]. I don’t know how a huge corporation is okay with their customers driving a vehicle with issues that can potentially lead my car to catching fire and then forcing me to have to sue. I would like my fuel pump replaced at no cost bc I would not have had this issue to begin with if Branford Honda and American Honda Cared about their drivers. I’ve always taken great care of my car you can see the history. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Christmas Tree dashboard with all lights on appeared a few weeks ago. Took car to auto shops twice. First time I was told coil 1 for cylinder 1 was misfiring, replaced with new coil. Lights did not go away, got my codes read again and was same error message of coil 1 misfire. In the past week car would not accelerate past 15mph after start up. I was immediately concerned it was a head gasket issue since that is a very known defect for my exact make and model of vehicle. Took into my Honda Dealership where I purchased my Accord brand new. Was just told Fuel injectors need to be replaced even though vehicle has been maintained properly. To me this seems this is directly correlated with the current fuel pump recall issue, I asked the service advisor if that was the case and she said she’d get back with me, and that she’s currently waiting to hear back from my Lifetime Powertrain Warranty company (Fidelity Warranty Services) to see if the fuel injector replacement is covered by them. If this make and model has time and time again been known to have faulty fuel injectors and head gasket issues that directly put the drivers safety at risk and end up causing thousands of dollars in repairs, Honda needs to take responsibility for rushing out vehicles without properly testing them first. If fuel injectors are not covered under my warranty, I will be contacting American Honda to assist me with the cost of the repairs.
my stall while driving and lose power while driving up hills etc. also shut off at times almost causing me several accidents. called the coral springs dealership in Florida and was told i had to pay have my vehicle dianosed before they can see if its the recall for fuel pump module. they rather for me to have an accident before replacing my recall issue. I spoke with a lawyer in regards to this matter in case something happens to me while driving and he gave me good news if you all dont repair this safety recall and im involve in an accident.

I have called Honda Dealer, John Eagle of Houston ( address: 18787 Northwest Freeway, Houston TX 77085 . phone number: 2815281165) for more than 60 days ago about the recal letter that I have received about my 2018 Honda Accord about replacing fuel pump. They informed me that the part is not available at that time and will call me when it will be available and till now I havent receeived any call from them.
Head gasket replacement Fuel injectors replacement Driving my car started sputtering and jumping. I took to Honda South to get it diagnosed. I was told it needed fuel injectors and a head gasket. Also to get other things done since the engine will taken apart (drive belt, timing belt, water pump). I started a conversation with a service mechanic in the lobby and told him my issue. He told me the 1.5 turbo engine has problems with the head gaskets and they see a lot of them.
OPEN RECALL ISSUES I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to formally express my concern regarding the unresolved recall issue with my 2018 Honda Accord. I am a resident of Columbus, Georgia, and have made multiple attempts to have this recall addressed by the local Honda dealership in Columbus, Georgia, but have encountered persistent difficulties. I have visited the dealership several times inquiring about when my recall can be fixed. On one occasion, I was informed that the manager stated the recall could not be addressed unless my car was experiencing visible issues. Despite explaining that I was already experiencing some of the issues outlined in the recall, I was denied service. A few months later, when I visited again, I was told that no parts were available for the recall. When I called a few weeks after that, my calls went unanswered. Most recently, after the birth of my child, I visited the dealership once again and was told that all parts for the recall were out of stock. I requested to be put on a list to be contacted once the parts became available, as I am concerned about the safety of my vehicle and the need to have the recall honored. Despite these repeated efforts, I have not received a resolution, and I believe my consumer rights are being disregarded. As per Georgia’s consumer protection laws, including those concerning automobile safety and recall procedures, manufacturers are required to honor recalls and ensure that necessary parts are available in a timely manner. The continued lack of response and failure to address this issue is concerning, especially given the potential safety risks involved. Please do note and keep in mind that I have came to the Honda business about 3 times . I am undecided of the actual dates but the year was 2024 . I know I went before I had my baby in September and after I had my baby I received a minor inspection due to me complaining.
Approx. one year ago, my 2018 Honda Accord LX completely shut down while traveling at 35 mph. The engine light was flashing and I lost all power with only enough to pull over safely on the side of the road, I was terrified and called AAA who came and towed it to a local mechanic. At the time I was unaware of the recall. My mechanic did diagnostic test and found nothing. He explained the car went into "limp mode", indicating there was something wrong. The car started fine and I took it to our local Honda dealer for service. They had the car for 3 days, finding no issues, but explained it could be related to the recall. I was told the parts for the recall were unavailable and I would be notified when they came in. This week it happened again! I just contacted the dealer for status on the parts and was told I am 160 on a waiting list for the recalled parts and that they were sporadically coming in. I am afraid to drive the car, uncertain if this will happen again at a high rate of speed. I am a retired senior with limited income and need this resolved ASAP. Thank you for your attention to this matter. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The accelerator is going out when I drive. The car drives slow and pulls back while driving. Thought it was fuel pump, took it in for fuel pump recall, & the car is still doing the same thing, no change. All lights on dashboard are on. The safety of my children & myself has been put at risk quite a few times. While driving the car getting on the freeway ramp, the accelerator went out going up an hill and luckily I was able to put my emergency lights on & able to barely get over to the right side. My car almost stalled. I’ve taken it to the dealer a few times. When I took it to fix fuel pump recall, they said 2 other codes were coming on. I took it in again this past week to check those 2 codes hoping to get it fixed & he said now other codes were coming up. They couldn’t seem to find the problem. The guy said they had been working on it since 9am and it was almost 4 pm when I talked to him. He called me an hour later to say it could possibly be the head gasket but not for sure. My vehicle has been inspected by the Honda dealer. When the problem first happened on the freeway warning lights came on. Warning lights on are: Collisions mitigation braking system on, adaptive cruise control problem on, hill start assist problem vehicle may roll on, vehicle stability assist system problem on, electric power steering system problem on, brake hold system problem on, brake system problem performance on, tire pressure system monitor on, emission system problem on.
Mileage: 135,321

Check Engine light came on along with several warning messages. The dealer ran diagnostic that showed error code P0304 recommending replacement of failing Fuel Injectors. The service estimate noted "no sign of leaking head, other cylinders also showing periodic misfire, fuel trims dropping below 0.9, indicating failure". This was very surprising as the car has mileage of less than 57,000 with regular maintenance done. The realization with safety came with recent episode on 1/7/2025 when the engine did not pick up speed after pressing accelerator and I had to pull back into parking lot. A call to Honda did not help as the representative said there is no recall for this model of car fuel injector but it appears there is know issue with the 1.5T engines from 2018. As the dealer did not help any further and gave estimate of $1600, I had no choice but to have the fuel injectors replaced with a car repair shop spending $1265. I believe firmly that Honda should acknowledge the issue with the fuel injectors and recall/ cover them under extended warranty. This would improve the safety of 2018 accord 1.5T.
UNKNOWN This morning I started my car and nine code were thrown, my car was just serviced and inspected at a Honda dealership about a week ago and nothing indicated a catastrophic issue that is presenting itself now. Nine separate codes have been thrown an emissions system, two brake system, electric power steering, vehicle stability assist, hill start assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation braking system, and road departure mitigation. After researching my car, 2018 Honda accord, there appears to be a trend of owners experiencing the same phenomenon occur, along with power loss that is triggered by cold weather. I live in Texas where it is usually hot and it is 20 degrees today. I am concerned that the failure of these systems puts me in danger while driving, I am also concerned why it was undetected only a week ago and seems to have totally malfunctioned now.
My vehicle was purchased in 2021. It is a 2018 Honda Accord Touring model. The engine is a 1.5TRG. My current mileage is 88,405. About three weeks ago, my mom drove my car to the store and the dash lit up. By this I mean that the dash lights lit up for check engine light, lane mitigation, oil, etc. She was less than 5 minutes from the house and immediately drove back and parked the car. Mind you, I've driven a car with a blown head gasket. It smoked, temperature gage would show that the vehicle was hot, etc. My car never showed any signs that the vehicle was exhibiting or about to run hot or any other engine issues. At a later time, maybe a week later, I attempted to drive the car and it sputtered and barely wanted to take off. I parked it. My service appointment was 12/13/24. I paid $200 to have them diagnose and tell me the issue. I drove my vehicle to the dealership thinking that this could have been a sensor issue. Had I known that this was the problem, I would have had it towed there. The vehicle is now at my home parked. I researched this issue and from what I've seen, there are several consumers that are experiencing the issue. I own a 2014 KIA Soul that experienced a similar issue. Hyundai/KIA performed the repair FREE of charge and also provided me with a rental. I am currently still financing this Honda Accord and I think that it is completely unfair to the consumer to pay upwards of $4K for something that is clearly a manufactures issue. Aside from replacing the gasket, they also included replacing the spark plugs, timing chain, etc. This was my dream car but has since been a nightmare knowing that not only do I have to continue to pay the note but to pay $4K for repairs that aren't my fault. I maintain the oil changes for the vehicle and any other recommended services. Someone needs to hold them accountable to stand by their product.

1. The head gasket on my 2018 Accord LX 1.5t was lifting and causing a leak of coolant to enter cylinder #3 and therefore burned one of the valves within the cylinder. 2. Safety issues that I experienced was the car stalling randomly while driving causing me to have to pull over in unsafe locations. 3. A Honda dealership has confirmed the burnt cylinder valve and recommended a head gasket and cylinder valve replacement. 4. No police or insurance agency has inspected the vehicle/parts, only a Honda dealership and private mechanic. 5. The were all the dashboard lights that came on but the car had stalled immediately after without much time to prepare.
honda has yet to fix the fuel pump issue after issuing recall on the fuel pump over a year ago. I've been by the Honda dealership numerous times trying to get this recall fixed. Now i am having many issues with my car and i can't even drive it at this point. The Honda dealership told me that I have a cracked head which has caused may other issues. There is known issues with the 2018 Honda accord 1.5t that Honda has to even acknowledge. There wasn't an accident thankfully quick thinking on my behalf. There are many issues that Honda had refused to acknowledge and as single woman living off one check and still paying for my car, recently fired because it's now hard for me to get to work because i do not make enough to uber to work and pay my monthly bill it's caused me many issues and lots of out-of-pocket expenses. Now as I am trying to find a remote job that i don't have to drive into I am desperately trying to not lose my house which is almost out of my control and will be homeless because of this known issue that Honda has known about and has yet to do anything about. i have loved my car and to the point I was thinking about trading in and getting a brand new one and would have been Honda fan the rest of my life this has ultimately ruined my life, and I am hating this decision to buy one from the get-go. This should be illegal, and Honda should be held responsible for fixing this issue which has cost me almost my whole life. The fuel pump has failed which either indirectly or directly has affected the head gasket, and every light is lite up on my dashboard and goes into limp mode when trying to go. the warnings that are up are the emissions, the electrical warning has been on for years and no could or can find out why. I've taken it into the Honda dealership & other repair shops trying to get this fixed, but no one can figure it out. I can accelerate to get up to speed and it tells me to not brake hard, on top of the other warnings this has caused to come
Head Gasket failure. This causes the car to begin misfiring/stalling while accelerating. This is seriously dangerous. It happens when you are accelerating. Then, since it's an emission/misfire issue, the car goes into limp mode and forces the car to no longer exceed the limp mode speed, which is usually like 30 or 35 mph.The stark difference from highway speed resulted in me almost getting rear-ended by a semi. This has happened to me on two different occasions and posses a legit safety concern for everyone. You can do a simple 2-second Google search and find an insane amount of people having the exact same issue. I am luckily trained in high stress and ooo shit scenarios, so I was able to successfully get the car off the road without dying or getting smoked by a semi or driver not expecting the car that just entered the highway to drastically be slowing down. However, the average person would probably not instinctively hit the hazards and get over/off the road and onto the side. This issue is completely unrelated to the fuel pump recall because if it was a fuel pump failure, the car would never end up in limp mode. Limp mode is almost always emissions related(IE misfiring from head gasket leakage).
I received numerous letters from Honda about the recall on my car since earlier this year. I have contacted Brian Honda in Fayetteville about 5 times already and keep getting the run around or ignored and passed along saying they do not have parts for replacement and for me to keep calling back. When I do call back they do not answer the phone or answer emails. I have an infant in my car and I do not think it’s safe for me to drive around with a new baby in the car in risk of my car breaking down. One time the advisor asked me if I’m having problems and I said no not yet and he said yeah hopefully you don’t while we’re waiting
Dear NHTSA, I am writing to express my serious concern regarding the significant delay in addressing the safety recall (NHTSA Recall Number: 23V-858) for my 2018 Honda Accord (VIN [XXX] ). Despite multiple attempts to schedule a repair at Hendrick Honda of Charleston, I have encountered repeated delays and a lack of transparency from the dealership. Despite confirming part availability, I have been repeatedly turned away due to excuses such as "repair backlog" or "part shortages." This ongoing issue poses a serious safety risk and is unacceptable. I urge NHTSA to investigate this matter and take immediate action to compel Honda to prioritize the repair of affected vehicles and improve communication from their dealerships regarding the recall progress. Attached are email confirmations of previous service appts to repair this specific safety recall. Also attached is the Carfax open recall report for my vehicle, which I was first notified of on 1/17/24. Note: These documents do include previously cancelled appts due to the lack of communication and transparency from dealership. Thank you for your time and attention to this urgent matter.

My vehicle will randomly lose power while driving, lights will flash and then car will just stop and turn off. Try to turn car back on and all these lights are flashing and engine light stays on with codes. Taken my car to performance Honda MULTIPLE of times, paid to get it towed, Honda continues to say they don’t know what’s wrong with it. I’ve recorded videos of my car losing power and given them to Honda and they still couldn’t provide any answers after having my vehicle for 6 months on and off. My car continued to do the same thing all over again after Honda ended up putting used spark plugs in my car and I returned my car to Honda again. They replaced fuel pump and I made it 30 minutes home and my car broke down in the middle of an intersection on the highway again and all my fuel was all over the road. Honda came and got my car again. Car is not even reliable to have my kids in. This has been the worst vehicle I’ve ever owned and no dealer will even let me trade the car in because of all the recalls this model has had and how many customers have complained. I’m at a total loss and now a loss of a vehicle I have to pay on and can get rid of it for something safe to have my kids in. I’ve only had this car for 3 years and the last two years have had the same continuous problems with no explanation. Honda just clears the codes and gives the car back every time they have it. I’ve had to call 911 to have cops come and block my vehicle on the highway because it’s broken down with me and my kids in the car and my car wouldn’t start so I could move it. Honda knows about the continuous problems and has record of having none stop. No lights or anything on prior to car just losing power and turning off or not going over 20 mph and going into limp mode.
My head gasket and yes it’s available as long as the shops local. Can’t really drive it also I put fuel because a part of the problem is Honda recommending running 87 for fuel in manual and for a turbo car with direct injection that is part of the reason that’s causing this too happen too soo many 1.5t Accords! As far as safety it’s very dangerous, I went into limp mode multiple times on the highway and when that happens losing power on the highway is dangerous but having to pull over on the side of the highway is VERY dangerous!! Yes it has happened over and over and goes into limp mode just about everytime driven and yes a dealer has seen it. Yes every time it’s happened the dash lights up like a Christmas tree with check engine light! It started in Sept!!
12-18-2023, . . . original recall on Fuel Pump which may cause 2018 Honda Accord 1.5 L engine stall while driving. 02-21-2024, . . . . .I received a letter from HONDA about this fuel pump. 03-01-2024, . . . . . Braman Honda of Lake Worth, Florida, advised me, while at their dealership for regular maintenance about this Recall. My fuel Pump would ordered, and they would contact me to come back to rectify this Recall. As of today, 11-16-2024, Braman Honda has failed to contact me, over 8 months later. . . . . . . What if my Honda Accord stalls while I'm driving at 65 mph? I WANT this matter resolved. I am documenting this complaint against Braman Honda, and Honda Automotive Division. Thank You, Retired Florida DHSMV Officer
I was attempting to accelerate on the acceleration ramp to merge into traffic on the interstate, when my vehicle began violently jerking, and suddenly lost all power. My check engine light came on and it went into limp mode. This has happened twice now. Both times I was able to make it safely into the shoulder of the road with my hazard lights on. I turned the vehicle off, reset it, and have had to drive it since. The warning lights are on and off, depending. They’ve had since December of 2023 to release a recall and they haven’t yet. I need a remedy.
I received a notice of recall with my car registration and I contact the Honda Dealer Future Honda of Sacramento. I went for the appointment for the on October 05, 2024 and was told that they did not have the parts.
Subject: Urgent Concern Regarding Parts Availability for Fuel Pump Motor Safety Recall (Exp2) – 2018-2020 Honda Accord 2.0T Dear NHTSA, I am reaching out to express my concerns regarding Honda's lack of parts availability for the Fuel Pump Motor Recall on the 2018-2020 Honda Accord 2.0T. This recall addresses a critical safety issue with the fuel pump, which could cause the engine to stall unexpectedly—a significant hazard to drivers and passengers alike. It is troubling to note that while Honda has continued to produce and release new vehicles for 2024 and 2025, they have not been able to provide the necessary parts to repair recalled models already on the road. This discrepancy raises serious questions about the prioritization of safety, as new production vehicles seem to take precedence over the repair needs of existing owners affected by this recall. As a Honda owner, I rely on my vehicle daily, and this delay has caused considerable inconvenience and concerns for my safety. I am seeking guidance on Honda's obligations in this situation and any additional steps that owners can take to expedite these necessary repairs. If there is anything that NHTSA can do to encourage Honda to prioritize the availability of these parts, it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you for your attention to this matter.
I have a 2018 1.5 Touring with 94k (bought 5 years ago with 7k miles. Religiously performed all maintenance including oil changes and transmission fluid. I started having this issue on and off about 2k miles ago. This is an intermittent problem. Sometimes the car runs great with no problem...then the next time I start the car there is a rough idle and I get the shuttering/jolting/jerkiness (feels like the engine is misfiring) when the engine revs over 2.5k rpms or so. Out of habit, I typically drive in eco mode as I drive mostly highway miles. I also noticed that this is less of an issue in sport mode. If the jerkiness starts, keeping the car under 2k rpms avoids any additional jerkiness. If I accelerate, I will get one of two results: - The first is limp mode, which I can solve by pulling over, turning the car off, turn the car back on and the check engine light goes away...and the car may or may not be jerky again. - The second is limp mode with a Christmas tree of lights on the dash and warnings in the tachometer display area - which cycles through the following system problems: "Brake System", "Vehicle Stab Assist", "Hill Start Assist", "Adaptive Cruise C System", "Collision Mit Braking System", "Road Departure Mit System", "Emission System", "Electronic PS System ". If I turn the car off and back on, the error lights and messages still appear. I can clean the codes (P0302 cylinder #2 misfire) with my scanner, then the messages and lights go way...and the car may or may not be jerky again. I took the car to an experience independent shop that works primarily on Hondas. My mechanic had not seen this issue before. He test drove it and (luckily) experienced the issue. I asked him to install the new spark plugs that I bought from Honda. He also swapped coil packs around and had the same issue. He pulled the codes before and after the new plugs and swapping the coil packs around and the code was still on Cylinder #2.
Everyday the vehicles struggles to pick up on speed and stalls out. I am often holding up traffic because I’m driving to slow. I have to very very very slowly accelerate so that the car doesn’t stall. When the trying to accelerate it often skips and jerks while driving. I often wonder if this will affect me while driving on the interstate. I fear that a bad accident is on the horizon with these issues. Could you please help. I’ve tried multiple times since last December to get the car fixed and Honda refuses to fix my vehicle even though I received a letter in the mail saying more repair parts are available.
Car is not properly driving , engine stops while driving , causing car to over heat after 20 minute use
I’ve been trying to get my part replaced since August and I’ve been hundreds of dollars in between that time till now WASTING MONEY! And I’ve been told by 3 different dealerships that because I wasn’t experiencing what they considered major issues that they decided to not see me for the recall based off the information provided. I spoke with someone yesterday that I spoke to weeks ago about the same thing, and was told they didn’t have the part then when I asked to speak to a manager, he put me on hold and told me the part was in. I haven’t been able to drive my car since last Friday. It’s a huge inconvenience, as getting this part replaced would eliminate that issue I had to beg and threaten ppl jobs to get it replaced! But the amount of money I’ve wasted and fallen behind on MY BILLS IS CRAZY!!!!!! Honda should be cutting me check for the money loss as result so I can pay on things I had to wait on.. or create arrangements for along with having to ask my family for help because of the money I’ve been wasting the last two months
At 53,000, I began getting simultaneous errors light up the dashboard. I code reader indicated I had misfires on cylinder 3. Replaced spark plugs even though the originals are rated to near 100,000 miles. Ended up needing to have fuel injectors replaced by the dealer for $1300. Upon further research, this seems to be a common problem for these 1.5T engines caused by either faulty injectors or engine design. I purchase Honda for reliability and do not expect this kind of issue on a vehicle with that low of mileage. Honda should extend the warranty and offer reimbursement to those affected by this issue.
My car is always hesitating to go , sometimes it will slow considerably down and won’t go , and my engine lights pops on and starts flashing. I have to turn my car off and turn it back on. That’s very dangerous Ive almost been hit like that AND I HAVE TWO KIDS!!!!!
The fuel pump system in my Honda Accord 2018 Lx failed causing my car engine to turn off while I was driving on the express lane which then caused my car to spin out and slam my backside of the car into the wall. I was driving alone in the car with my seatbelt on and was able to blow my horn to alert other drivers to slow down. The vehicle was only inspected by the policer officer who arrived on scene and took notes of the incident. There was no warning lamps or messages of the problem prior to the failure. I was only cognizant of this fuel pump issue from the recall letter.
The problem first started on 8-8-24 when I cranked up my car & the dashboard lit up with all of these different sensors. I called Leith Honda dealership in Aberdeen, due to that is where I take my car to be serviced at, my customer service rep (Brian) stated to wait to see if they would stay on, because of that type of car will reset itself. So later on, that day they did, go away after driving it a while. Then a sensor popped up on 8-10-24 & stayed on for just a day, then came back off again. I called again & he stated to wait again so that the car can be diagnosed, but it had cut off again. So, a few days had gone by & in the middle of driving on the highway while going 60 mph, all of the same sensors came back on & the car would not go over 40 mph due to one of the main sensors stating "Emission System Problem. Avoid Heavy Acceleration & High Speed. See Your Dealer." Along with my 21MONTH old baby in the car! DANGEROUS! My job (travel CNA) requires me to travel from facility to facility & I need my car to be reliable. The rep said it really sounds like the recall part that is going bad in my car needs to be replaced & until it stays on sticks; there is nothing that can be done. I beg to defer! Is it going to take for me to get into a car accident & jeopardize my daughter & I safety in order for the part to be replaced, after what the recall notification states that can be done while operating the vehicle. Along with the recall stating that they are only willing to replace the part for free if the car is potentially life threating or inoperable. The fact that they are taking their time replacing these parts is dangerous or mindful at all. I love my car, but I am not willing to put my daughter's life, or mine nor anyone else's life in danger by continuing driving this car and still having to pay for it. I deserve for this part & anything else that is affected, due to the part needing to be replaced. Thank you for resolving the issue.
This is the second time in a year and a half, fuel injectors went bad an were replaced and im assuming this time is same issue. The car had a little rough idle . The car throws a check engine light and all other lights on dash come on and vehicle went into a sort of limp mode.. car would not excellerate and all safety items will not work… the injectors went bad at 59000 miles and after being changed at dealer it looks like they are bad again at 78000 miles.. this car is dangerous because of these issues..i am calling dealer on Monday
two weeks after I purchased this vehicle the electrical system failed causing the car to drive in the ditch, Land Rover of mount Kisco, ny sold me the vehicle, after multiple attempts to find out what was going on with it, it was found that someone had rigged the electrical wiring harness and wrapped it with electrical tape and taped it down causing the electrical system to malfunction, after that was repaired in august 2023 the car veered off the road again this time hitting a speed limit sign the damage was on the side of the vehicle but the vehicle would not move at all and all the lights were on again, the police stated where the damage is on the car it should not had caused the car to do what it was doing after I explained I was just driving along and the vehicle just went its own way, I told the insurance company about the previous issues, they repaired the car and that's it, I got the car back 24 hrs later all the lights came back on the dashboard, they still could not figure it out this was in September of 23, by December 23 the lights came back on the Honda dealership said it was the fuel pump this was because the lights came back on and the car stalled on the interstate almost causing a collision so I had to have it towed to the dealership, I paid $1300 only to find out Honda had a recall the dealership said it was the same part number and advised me to contact Honda for a reimbursement in which Honda has refused to reimburse me after to attempts, as I looked at the recalls on this car this car has had two different recalls on the fuel pump for this vehicle, that was repaired drove the car for 4 weeks the lights came on the dashboard again, I took it back to the dealership they said its the turbo booster, I am convinced the dealership who sold me this vehicle knew this vehicle was not in any condition to be on the road with a family in it, I have asked Honda to buy the car back they have refused, this car cannot be repaired.
On July 4th while driving 60 miles on the highway, my car had a sudden loss of power. I had to pull over to the side of the road and have my car towed back home due to feeling unsafe to drive the vehicle. I went to Auto Zone the next day and the code scanner said misfire cylinder 2. SO I went to a nearby mechanic shop and had them replace the spark plugs and cylinder 2. I was unaware they did not use Honda parts. My car drove a little better but still had issues maintaining speed intermittently. So I paid a different mechanic shop to diagnose my vehicle for $130. They recommended replacing sparks plugs a cylinder to Honda parts. Then also recommended replacing my fuel injectors. I waited on my next step since I did not have funds for those repairs. After picking up the vehicle, all warning lights up on my car daily. A few days later, my 18 year old daughter was driving my car and had a sudden loss of power at night while driving on busy I10. I had her stop and restart vehicle and drive to the next exit to get off the highway and home safely. The next day, I purchased the Honda spark plugs and cylinder and had a a mechanic in our neighborhood install them. he did let me know that that may not be the only issue. I had two more instances where my car would not go more than 10 miles an hour our of a parking lot so I researched recalls and became aware of the fuel pump recall. The next day, I went to Honda dealership and paid $190 to have my vehicle diagnosed. My fuel pump was functioning fine but all 4 fuel injectors were failing. SO I agree to have the seatbelt recall completed and the fuel pump recall installed. Then paid $190 diagnostics plus fuel injectors to be replaced. I had to get a loan from Honda to pay for these repairs as I already paid hundreds trying to figure out correct issue and I still make monthly car payments. The dashboard warning lights have stopped after repairs at Honda My car has been running better but now seems to have a rough idle.
My fuel injectors went bad and my engine shut down while I was on the highway, only allowing me to drive 5mph.
MY HUSBAND RECENTLY GET THIS CAR WITH A LOAN. WE BEEN WITH THE CAR FOR ALMOST 3 MONTHS. RECENTLY I WAS DRIVING MY DAUGTHERS TO SCHOOL ON THE HIGHWAY. MY CAR START ACTING UP. MY CAR START SHAKING LIKE IT WAS GONNA TURN OFF ON 45 MILES. AFTER THAT HAPPEND I FIND OUT THE IT WAS A RECALL ON MY HONDA ACCORD 2018 FUEL PUMP. I WENT TO A HONDA DEALER AND UNTIL THIS TIME NO ONE CAN HELP ME
When driving on the freeway my 2018 honda accord sport stalled with no indication light or anything. My safety and the safety of others was at high risk due to the stall. I was able to restart the engine however i was extremely concerned if this would start a fire.
The car is not starting properly, it takes a couple of tries to start, and the instrument panel lights come on. It appears that the Honda dealership in Doylestown PA does not have the part needed to repair my car and my safety is at risk and I don't feel comfortable driving the car. Can you please advise the dealership's responsibility in providing me a loaner car until the part is available? I have an appointment next week where I will leave the car until the part is available.
Due to this recall that Honda dealers been says for almost a year they are out of the parts but I was able to schedule an appointment for recall but once I got to dealership I was told it’s on back order so my question to them was why was I able to schedule an appointment then .. my car went from getting 500 miles on a full tank of gas to getting 330 miles and that’s a problem for me ..
I am the owner of a 2018 Honda accord purchased from Hillside Honda in Jamaica, NY on February of 2018. In 2021 started to experience issues with my vehicle while driving at various speeds, the vehicle jerked, loss motive power, switched to limp mode with the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle failed to properly accelerate while in limp mode. After stopping the vehicle, the check engine warning light disappeared and the vehicle operated normally. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer baron Honda located in Patchogue, NY for a routine oil change, and, to be diagnosed. The dealer informed me that the failure was caused by damage to a fuel injector that would cost approx. $2500 to repair. The dealers diagnosis of the fuel injector issue was incorrect and the dealer later admitted that the fuel injector did not need to be changed. At the time of the dealers initial diagnosis i declined repair of the fuel injector and just received an oil change. My intention was to get a 2nd opinion from another Honda dealership as the vehicle was 3 years old. Due to covid it was difficult to bring my vehicle to another dealer immediately & i would be responsible for the cost of another diagnostic. The failure subsided for a short time but than a few months later the same issue recurred. I then became aware of a recall to the fuel pump to the same make & model vehicle which the manufacturer informed me that my vin # did not match a fuel pump recall. While still experiencing on & off issues with my car relating to limp mode since 2021 I filed 2 cases with American Honda in 2023 & was denied. In December 2023 American Honda finally told me that my vehicle had a known recall to its fuel pump but the parts are in back order. At this time my vehicle still has issues with the engine limp mode that may/may not be related to the recall. I request that Honda remedy the issue. I demand either a full repair of my vehicle engine to resolve the limp mode issue, OR a new vehicle
On February 16th, I visited Walsh Honda in Macon, Georgia, reporting issues with my fuel and car not pulling and acting irregularly. Suspecting bad fuel, I was informed of a safety recall for the fuel pump, which was likely the problem. However, they changed the spark plug instead, charged me for it, and did not address the recall, which has been in place since 2023. They also noted a P303 misfire. The following day, February 17th, I returned for a 100,000-mile check. I spent over $600 on services, including replacing the belt alternator, flushing and draining the coolant, and turning the rotors. On March 18, 2024, the same P303 misfire code appeared. This time Walsh Honda claimed the engine cylinder was cracked and scarred, suggesting a $7,000 engine replacement, despite the fuel pump recall. They insisted on the engine repair instead of addressing the fuel pump recall. In April, I was involved in a rear-end collision and, as a had my car at Five Star Collision in Warner Robins for two months. I got the car back on May 31st, but it continued to act erratically, running hot and not pulling properly. In July 2024, I took the car to Hughes Honda in Warner Robins, Georgia who refused to fix the fuel pump despite the recall, I was told that, that is not the code for a new engine pump. That I would need to pay $6000 for the codes that was put in initially by Walsh in Macon, Ga. citing the need for head gaskets and injectors. They demanded this repair before addressing the fuel pump recall. This pattern of ignoring the fuel pump recall and pushing expensive repairs is troubling and seems to prioritize profit over safety. This is how the common man and woman get screwed by doing the right thing. Being that I am 100% Disabled Veteran I am very disappointed with treatment I received from both Honda dealerships. I wish for not another veteran, man or woman go through the disrespect I received.
Called for the recall (dated Feb 2024) and was told that Honda is not releasing replacement parts until some time in the fall - it's only mid July now. The failure of the part could cause the car to stall out suddenly while driving, increasing risk of a crash or injury (as stated in the recall notice). Online states they are not addressing the recall unless the vehicle has an issue. This, is NOT acceptable. If it stalls out while my daughter is driving it and anything happens to her, Honda had better be prepared for a huge lawsuit and some very bad press since they are knowingly putting anyone driving a vehicle under recall at risk for death, as is this agency that is allowing it to ignore a known recall. I will inform our insurance company of the issue as well.
I have attempted numerous times to take my car to the dealership and charged for services fees as well only to be told the part is not available however they can get the part if needed. My engines lights and collision mitigation systems continue to light up and inoperative. This concerns me being that it’s been almost a year driving my car with this re call and nothing has been done for the where where it clearly states possible engine failure leading to accidents.
While entering onto the highway the vehicle surged and stalled 3 times during acceleration. Honda has been contacted about the issue but refuses to address the recall. Honda case number 14795146.
After a few weeks of owning my 2018 Honda accord-Sport driving along the road my car hesitated and acted as if it didn't want to continue driving. I had to pull over to the side of the road to turn the car completely off and back on for the car to regain energy (power) to drive. Every light on the dash is on from the check engine light, brake system, check emission system, road assistance, tire system and do not turn off. I had the fuel injectors cleaned because that was the code that came back for the issue and the car is storing the same code. It was a temporary fix because the lights have been on and off for a whole year now. I cannot get the issue fix because the parts have been on and off back order for the whole year I have owned this car. My car is running harder and hesitating a lot more and I do not get the same average milage on gas anymore. I normally fill up once a week and do the same amount of driving, but my gas is no longer lasting me the week it used to. The fuel injectors seem to be a common issue with these cars especially with the parts on back order for this long intensive time period. I am scared my car will not be drivable in the near future on the symptoms it is now displaying. My car is available at any time for an inspection. I'm very surprised this issue is not a recall on the hazard it is driving, and the car could hesitate or not proceed to go when in traffic which could lead to terrible safety hazards. Every light is on that could possibly be wrong on the dash. I have taken this vehicle to Honda dealerships and 3rd party mechanic shops.
The car began having problems approximately 6 months ago. The problems would happen for a week and then stop occurring. The car slows completely down to 5 mph while on the highway, causing traffic to swerve to miss causing an accident. We have received a few letters stating that the fuel pump recall was active for our vehicle with a complete description of what was going on with our car. We got a letter stating that minimal fuel pumps are available, so contact your Honda dealership ONLY if your car is currently showing signs. We waited until it started showing signs again. This week it started again. We called and set up an appointment for July 3, 2024, but today the car lost power every time it was driven with near accidents occurring many times. The car was taken to the Columbia MO Honda dealership. They tried to charge $69 to look at the car after we told them about the recall. We refused to pay, they looked at the car and said it was several different things other than the recall, acting like they were unsure of the reason for the inoperable car. Nothing was fixed. We left the dealership, and the car will not go over 5 mph so it is parked 40 miles from our home. This car is the office of the owner, and this is very disheartening. We called the Honda Automobile Service Center and after hearing there was nothing they could do. I became upset telling them, “I guess I will need to get a lawyer or when the car causes a collision and death, I will be suing Honda.” She then offered to set up a case, but I would be added to a workload and who knows when we will get a call. She also said that when our July 3 appointment comes, they will still need to diagnose the car and order the part. We need a safe vehicle NOW. All warning lights come on when this occurs.
my car has been severely malfunctioning due to the fuel pump recall. I have had to avoid several accidents due to the loss of power at high speeds, stalling, and sputtering. My car started experiencing these issues last December and I was told by Honda to take it in to be diagnosed (which I did), and then I was told there was no fix or parts at that time because it was due to a faulty fuel pump. I parked the car and I had to find rides to work until I was unable to, so I had to start back driving the vehicle. The issue became severe again about a week ago. My car completely stalled and would not accelerate at all at a traffic light. I proceeded to turn on my hazards and call for assistance while turning the car off. Eventually the car was able to be moved after about 20 mins of being powered off. Luckily, I wasn't far from my home, I turned on the hazards and slowly made it home and parked the car. I'm currently afraid to continue to drive the vehicle because of safety concerns for myself as well as other drivers on the road. My car stalls, shuts off, will not start back up, and sputters, and all of the lights on the dash are on. The first incident I was almost hit by another driver because of the loss of power. I have reached how to Honda several of times and had the car diagnosed and done everything I was asked to do but I am still being given the "run around" and they do not seem to be making this a priority matter. This is my only car, and it has been a major inconvenience for me as well as been very unsafe for me to operate my vehicle and I still do not feel they have any plans to resolve this matter anytime soon.
Fuel Injectors had to be replaced, and the vehicle only 54,084 miles. Vehicles with the same engine, made by Honda, are being recalled. Furthermore, I have seen recalls for the 2018-2020 Honda Accord being recalled, but my VIN does not acknowledge this recall. I was at a stoplight, and turning right on when the car lost power and went into limp mode. Fortunately, there was no one coming (On a fairly busy street) when I made the turn. I pulled to the side, and turned the car off, and started it again. I was driving less than a mile to my next workplace when this incident happened. After my work shift was done I turned on the car and lit up like a Christmas tree (The mechanics words when he saw the dashboard). I held my breath to get the car to the dealership (Around 10 miles away). The following "lit up" on the car: 1. Electric Power Steering System Problem. Steering Assist Reduced. See your dealer. 2. Adaptive Cruise Control System Problem. See your dealer. 3. Road Departure Mitigation System Problem. See your dealer. 4. Emission System Problem. Avoid Heavy Acceleration and high speed. See your dealer. 5. Tire Pressure Low 6. Brake System Problem. Brake Performance may be reduced. See your dealer. 7. Brake Hold System Problem. Apply Brake when stopped. See your dealer. 8. Vehicle Stability Assist System Problem. Reduced traction and handling. See your dealer. 9. Hill start assist problem. Vehicle may roll upon brake release. See your dealer. 10. Collision Mitigation braking system problem. See your dealer.
Head gasket and fuel injector. Causing stalling of the vehicle. Over heating. Have almost been hit with my kids in the car from stalling. Honda has confirmed this and the car has only 125k miles. This is COMMON in this car and should be recalled before someone is killed. In this economy who can afford 5500 dollars on a car that isn’t old to fix? I have driven all my past vehicles into 200k miles and never had these issues and have taken much better care of this car.
Honda dealership still does not have the fuel pump materials to complete the recall repair.
Due to the fuel pump module recall by Honda, I took my 2018 Honda Accord to Stevenson Hendricks Honda located in Wilmington, NC on [XXX]. Stevenson Hendricks Honda refused to replace my fuel pump module claiming that my car head gasket was blown which isn't true. I had a mechanic to verify the head gasket wasn't blown. Prior to going to the dealer, I contacted Honda Foundation at 1-800 999-1009 who instructed Stevenson Hendricks to replace fuel pump module, and not to charge me like they told me when I made my [XXX] appointment. Stevenson Hendricks Honda needs to be held accountable to replace the fuel pump module on my car as required by the Honda recall notice I received in the mail.

2018 Honda vehicle Head Gasket failure and Fuel pump failure were detected by New Jersey Park Ridge local service and New Jersey Tenaflay Honda service. All panel lights in my vehicle are on. Problems I experienced included intermittent stalling or loss of power, no gas flow. However, what scared me the most was that while driving at normal speed, the engine lost all its power and stopped taking gas, and our vehicle shook. Our vehicle stopped automatically by cutting off the gas flow on the road. Luckily there weren't too many cars behind us, which allowed us to move to the side of the road. I had my family and children in our car. This could have had much worse consequences. Within the scope of the 2018 Honda recall, no recall request has been received for my vehicle yet. However, as a result of the major problems experienced, I request that this security problem be resolved for my vehicle, which should be in the recall program. My vehicle is currently in service, and I cannot use it in any way.
I contacted a Nissan dealer regarding a repair matter concerning a safety recall for the fuel pump module. It seems that the vehicle is encountering stalling issues, which could potentially increase the likelihood of accidents or injuries, potentially resulting in fatalities. I was informed that Honda does not currently have the necessary part and regrettably, they are unable to schedule the repair until August. There were no indications or alerts before the failure occurred. This is my primary mode of transportation.
While accelerating on the highway my car suddenly hesitated and I lost power. At the same time the check engine light came on. By the time I was safely able to pull over to the side of the road a plethora of warning lights had come on. Luckily I was not far from home and I was eventually able to make it back to the house safely with only mild hesitation. The car is currently at the dealership and they've let me know it's an issue with the fuel injector (P0303 misfire). After reading online it seems as though many folks with 2018 Honda Accord 1.5 are/have been having the same problem. This is a known issue and a recall is needed as it seriously puts lives at risk. It is only by the grace of fate that there weren't any cars behind nor to the side of me at the time of the major hesitation. My car has less than 75k miles on it so this issue is not due to wear and tear.
Vehicle stalls upon start on multiple occasions. Vehicle will not start at all on multiple occasions. On approximately February 2024 vehicle sent a warning signal while driving. Warning states vehicle cannot accelerate while driving on the highway, then vehicle slows under traffic speed causing fear of crash while on the highway causing me to pull over and restart vehicle. After restart, vehicle stalled again. Children were present in the vehicle. Called dealer to inform about the issue and was made aware of recall on fuel pump. Dealer does not have parts and will not have parts for recall for months. Called dealers near me periodically over the course of months. All local dealers reported parts will not be available for ongoing months.
Honda recall letter received February 2024, stating that car's fuel pump is defective, and will be replaced as part of the recall. It is now mid-May, four months later, and local Honda dealer has no idea when the fuel pump will be available. Meanwhile we feel unsafe driving this car. This is a very big problem for us.
The lights on my dashboard keep turning on. I have informed the dealership that my vehicle has a recall but they say that is not the issue. I informed them they have to fix it because of the recall and they said my pump is fine. That it’s the injectors.
I’ve owned this car for almost 6 years now and one day out of nowhere all warning lights on this car came on and the car can barely drive up to 10 MPH. The car won’t go past 10 MPH. Engine light, cruise control and every single warning light were showing on the dashboard. I ended up paying huge amount to get it fix and on top of that I was not able to go to work.
During drives I feel my vehicle stalling out as I push on the gas pedal. This occurs randomly and I'm sure the fuel/pump needs to be replaced soon. I've even experienced the engine to shake and a few times it has not started. I regularly drive this vehicle and I have been trying to get the part replaced since the recall was submitted. This is unsafe for my wife and kids as well as myself.
Getting engine lights with emission system problem. Cylinder one Misfires. Checked with service which said Only 49K miles and injectors are gone . Need to replace injectors. Honda will not provide injector unless we do repair form dealer. Waiting for months. Always on backorder They said its known issue . Already spend lot of money Not sure why its not on recall since lot of people with 2018 Accord having this issue
I Lost all system brake system tpms vehicle stability electric power steering hill start adaptive cruise control collision mitigation road departure Emission system problem. Check engine code that keeps popping out is P0301 have changed injectors and coil packs and have done further research on vehicle there are a lot of people stating they are a bad batch of injector and I have looked up to buy the injector and are unavailable. I believe the injector are bad and causing multiple check engine to pop up and further increasing the possibility of a crash or accident.
This has caused my car to stall while driving. It's causing sputtering and other issues. All lights come on the dash at times also. I've been told by the dealer the parts are ordered for this recall, and now I'm finding that there are NO PARTS for this recall. I have a three year old son and cannot afford to have it stall with him.
The car has 73,820 miles on it. Flashing check engine light came on, stalling, unable to drive the car over 10 MPH, lucky I was around my house. If this would have happened on the freeway, I would probably get into a bad accident. Towed it to local Honda Dealership, came back as fuel injector problem (one of the cylinder was misfiring). After reading online posts of other owners & no coolant in the reservoir, I asked them to check the head gasket because a lot of complains about this problem. The dealer ship replaced the head gasket but not the fuel injectors after I asked them to double check the fuel injectors, but they insisted that only the head gasket was the only problem. After a week and a half, I went and tried to pick up my car. Before I was able to drive it off the lot, check engine light came back as one of the cylinders was misfiring again. To this day, I am still without my car. Now thinking about whole situation, we experienced some engine shaking when the engine first started. But it ran fine after a little bit, so we did not think anything of it. Good Will program of Honda will pick up the repair cost, my portion is $900.00 as deductible.
Fuel injectors went out not even a year of having my vehicle… and it cause electrical problems in the car where you can’t use and car features…. There is so many reports there needs to be a recall review
On March 14 2024 my fuel Injector failed. Took it to the dealer to get then fix. Currently getting a loss of mpg but car is running good
My issues started end of December 2023, where my car would all of a sudden stop, and this happened to me on a highway at a speed of 70mph in Houston, which is a very serious safety issue. After this happened, I got this checked out at Honda dealership, they informed that this happened because of an outstanding recall for fuel pump and told me to wait till Feb 2024 when I will receive a recall letter and parts will be Ava by March 2024. By the time Feb came, I got a letter and it says that it will be available in Fall of 2024, that is almost entire year of 2024. Dealership said they can’t do anything and told me to reach out of corporate Honda, following their advice I filed a complaint to Honda corporate and when then finally got back to me, they told me Honda corporate can’t do anything and I will have to wait till fall 2024. I informed them that it is a safety issue and that it is effecting my job, because I am currently car less, I have to ask around to different family members to borrow their car, this is effect negatively to my livelihood; financially and mentally and Honda do not care. Now I will be out of a car for 9-10 months and I am still making payments for the car and car insurance. I also lost my job just yesterday because of this. You guys are my last option, I do not know what else I can do from my end, I need my car to be fixed so I can do support myself financially.
took my vehicle to honda for emissions check engine light, dealer troubleshoot and said i need my injectors replaced my vehicle has 74k miles
With only 99,000 miles on my 2018 1.5L 4 cyl Accord, the electrical part of the fuel injectors is beginning to fail. This has caused misfires in multiple cylinders. My safety was put at risk because when the misfires occur the engine has stumbled and all warning icons light up and the warning messages for all systems come on. When this happens the adaptive cruise control (ACC) stops working and the low tire pressure icon is always lit even though the tires have not lost pressure. ACC is a safety system and I will have no warning if a tire develops a leak. This could cause an accident at highway speeds. Moreover, the stumbling could result in an unexpected rapid slowdown at highway speeds. I have taken the car to an independent shop that reproduced the condition and believes the fuel injectors are failing. I called the local Honda service that confirms the injectors are failing. There were no indications of the condition prior to the warning lights coming on. From an internet search failing injectors below 100,000 miles appear to be a common problem with 2017-18 Honda 1.5L engines as I found numerous references to 2017-18 Honda 1.5L injector failure on Honda owner boards.
The car goes into limp mode and will not go past 20 miles per hour. I recently took my Honda Accord Sport 1.5 to get checked out because all the lights came on the dashboard and it was rough shaking starting the car that eventually subsides, idles fine, and drives fine. When on the highway, trying to accelerate to high speeds, the car will start having a rough start to accelerate. I took it to two dealerships, and they said there's nothing they can do because the codes are not showing what the exact issue is and suggested that I change my spark plugs and fuel injectors (which was already done at around 60,000 miles). Utter disappointment in this vehicle.
Was driving down the road car completely loose power check engine light started blinking pulled over turn the car off. Turn it back on check engine light disappeared. Vehicle did fine feels like vehicles constantly losing power runs fine acceleration and it starts to cut out hook the check engine light system up and as most 2018 through 2019 Honda Accord error pops up Fuel rail/system pressure-too low bank one
Vehicles keeps stalling while driving because of fault fuel pump
The current documented Recall for the fuel pump cannot be rectified until fall of 2024. I need to us this vehicle however its a safety concern to operate the vehicle with the possibility of injury or accident. My insurance company "farmers" will not cover me in the event of an accident or injury brought on by this recall/defect. With that said all liability is on me for using the vehicle when this is a Honda problem they cannot fix for another 6 months. I drive 100 miles a day with this car which places me at a higher risk of this happening. This is not fair or safe to put the consumer in this predicament. This is another case of firestone tire recall scandal where they ran the numbers and saw it more in favorable to save money then to save lives. Honda will not pick up a loaner nor do I have the income to support another vehicle. This is wrong.
Fuel pump . No. no remedy to fix within 60 days .
I received a notice that my car has a recall for a faulty fuel pump system. over the last year i have been dealing with the issues of this problem and have to multiple mechanics and no one could figure out what was wrong until this recall came out. I have had my car stall on me multiple times on the freeway, my car will idle rough all the time, poor fuel consumption and my check engine light goes on and off all the time. Because of this I have been unable to drive my care for months. I called John Hinderer Honda in Newark Ohio late January since there was finally a remedy available and scheduled my care to be fixed for the recall. I dropped it off on [XXX], upon arrival an employee sat in my car and noticed that it was idling rough. I get a call the next day from them stating that because the check engine light is not on at the moment it is not a concern for them at this time to fix the recall on my vehicle even after everything that has happened in the last year.

I purchased my vehicle from Lithia, Inc. d/b/a Wilde Honda in Waukesha, Wisconsin new. Wilde Honda serviced the vehicle on [XXX], after I reported that all lights in the vehicle were coming on. In addition, I experienced an incident on the highway where my car failed to accelerate, putting me in extreme danger. On [XXX], after my vehicle was returned to me, I experienced substantially similar issues immediately, with the same problems accelerating, all of the dash lights coming on, and a rumbling and jittering sound when the vehicle was first started. Wild Honda charged me $4,956.36 for repairs, which did not resolve any issues. I wrote to Alex Reed of Wilde Honda regarding these issues. Mr. Reed assured me that the underlying problem was resolved by replacing a fuel injector, and I was charged an additional $350.00. On [XXX], I again experienced the same dangerous issue where all the lights came on. Once again, I found myself on the highway, unable to accelerate and faced with a dangerous situation. I have made repeated demands to Lithia to reimburse me for the repairs charged to me, as well as for the fair market value of my vehicle as it can no longer be operated safely. Lithia d/b/a Wilde Honda has made no efforts to resolve this situation and disclaims all responsibility. After researching this issue, I discovered that In October 2018, American Honda notified dealerships that vehicles equipped with a 1 1.5L turbo direct-injection engine “may experience engine oil dilution” and that this “may result in increased oil level and can cause a [cylinder] misfire” and cause a variety of symptoms including a check light indicator due to an engine misfire, a low oil pressure light, and abnormal engine noises. In fact, American Honda reached out and requested that dealerships contact them if the dealerships came across similar issues that plagued my vehicle as American Honda was trying to determine the underlying issue.

Fuel injectors
This 1.5T has had alot of complaints about head gaskets going out. 50K miles i had it headgaskey went bad
All the warning lights turn on and the car loses power when accelerating. It shows the check engine code P0301. The spark plug and coil are fine. Potential issue is the fuel injector leaking.
After this car was repaired by the body shop, all the automatic systems in the car started flashing and no one could figure out why. It went to four different repair shops over several months, till finally they convinced me to purchase another vehicle when this one was going to be paid off in two months. This problem was well documented by several repair places , and ultimately since it was unrepairable I had to trade it in and got bottom dollar for a non-running car that I owned since the beginning and got screwed.
Safety Issue: Excessive Emissions and Melted Catalytic Converter(environmental risk)/Fire Risk My car needs all new fuel injectors. If you read online, fuel injector issues are rampant on Honda vehicles. North City Honda in Chicago diagnosed the vehicle. The parts are on backorder. I called Honda of Grandville Michigan and they also have injectors on backorder. They told me they have 15 cars waiting on injectors, the longest has been waiting an estimated 90 days. This is further evidence the issue is rampant, greatly exceeding the manufacturer's demand plan for fuel injectors. The error codes state my car is running too rich (among others). A vehicle that is running too rich risks unburnt fuel entering the catalytic converter, where it can combust and melt the converter, causing further safety and environmental risk. The error message I'm receiving says "Emissions System Problem. Avoid heavy acceleration and high speeds. See your dealer". The error message in my HondaLink app says "The engine is not operating properly. Limit your driving and visit your dealer as soon as possible. If the indicator is blinking, stop in a safe place where there are no flammable objects. Turn off engine for 10 minutes or more to let it cool. Restart the engine. If the indicator continues to blink, immediately have your vehicle checked by a dealer." Honda's own message states there is a potential fire risk. Yet, if all the parts are backordered for 90+ days, potentially thousands of customers will be forced to continue driving on a risky vehicle.
They said that it would take over a month to get the part and its a fuel pump recall. Honda Superstition Mesa Arizona
I had gotten my fuel injector replaced back in 12/07/2020 and I saw where now the fuel pump recall was recently put out, but I sold my car back in 08/2023 but I paid for my fuel injector to be replaced, will I be eligible for a reimbursement?
fuel injector, pipe set and ring had to be replaced. Car kept on displaying misfire and did not run good
Faulty Fuel Injectors has been a common problem with 10th Gen Honda for a lot of people, including myself. It starts off the same, all of the warning lights turn on in the dashboard randomly, we take it to the dealership and they say they need to replace the fuel injectors, with a estimate cost of $1,500+. How is that possible with low mileage cars? Even the lady who helped me at the Honda dealership told me that they should issue a recall for the fuel injectors because it is a common problem that so many people are experiencing across the nation. If you decide to have it replaced at the dealership, you have to wait months for the part to come in because there is so many orders for the same part. How has a recall not have been issued yet?! I looked online and this is a common problem that people have been having for years!

I took my vehicle to Gregg Orr Honda in October when my dash lights were flashing again after having the fuel pump replaced in September. I was told that my fuel injectors needed to be replaced and that a fuel injector kit would be ordered. I have called several times since October, the last call placed in December of 2023 and I was told that the injectors are on back order and not sure when they will be in! What kind of customer service is this? Then he proceeds to tell me that he had ordered 7 fuel injector kits that week, I’m sure that a recall needs to be made on these fuel injectors as well because not everyone fuel injectors are going out at the same time.
Took my car for recall last week. Dealership isn't helping me. Spend so much money to fix something that's defecting parts of my engine. But dealership is ignoring me.
Car would shake in the morning would wait till warmed. Immediately brought to Honda where I had a diagnostic completed approx. 9/3. Reports says head gasket. Car well taking care (maintenance) no reason for blown head gasket. Got a second opinion They had the car for a week. No warning lights, and did another diagnostic and nothing showed at the time. Brought the car home. After a few months waiting for warning sign or other signs it took a couple of few months for the engine light to come on and it slowed down and came to a stop. Had car towed to Honda. Called Honda corporate. After finding out they weren't going to cover the cost of $5000+ knowing this has absolutely nothing to do with the customer being negligent with car. I can not afford that kind of money and had it towed to the same mechanic where we are still waiting for the parts to come in from Honda factory and it's been in his possession for 2 weeks. I had to get a rental which Honda would not cover. There is no way that a car that is 5years old under 80,000 miles should have engine work unless it was not cared for properly. I have proof of continuous maintenance. I should not be held reliable for malfunction parts on the car and other Hondas are having the same issues. It was very dangerous and scary having the car shake when driving and not being abled to accelerate on the gas with no warning of any. I had it towed 2x to 3x waiting and praying that Honda will be responsible.
We were notified by carfax a couple of weeks ago that my 2018 accord had a recall on the fuel pump. I called my Honda dealership and they told me there was no recall. Then yesterday the nhtsa and the manufacturer updated their sites to confirm there actually was a recall. I called Honda today and the rep told me that there is no remedy yet and the nhtsa website states there's an increased risk of crash and injury. What is the allotted time the manufacturer is given to remedy this problem? Because now I'm not going to drive my car because I don't wanna die and leave my wife and kids behind.
Fuel pump or injector has malfunctioned. It is has already been inspected by a Honda dealer. Safety at risk because there was a recall on the fuel system of Hondas in 2020. I purchased this vehicle in 2021 and was not made aware. The vehicle could stall and cause an accident. No other problem currently reported on the vehicle. I was just sitting in a parking space when the engine light came on.
While driving on highway, I had to break fast to avoid collision. immediately after breaking all the lights in the car lit like a Christmas tree and had the following message “Emission System problem. Avoid heavy acceleration and high speed. See your dealer” I went to the nearest dealer service center and they recommended that I drive vehicle for ten minutes and see if it goes away. If it did not they asked to go back. I drove the car once again in the freeway and It seem to drive okay but then it suddenly shook a lot when pressing gas pedal and it did not accelerate. I used emergency lights and took first exit. Luckily there was a dealer within a couple of miles. Honda’s service center technician stated after running the rough computer that it could be multiple things wrong with car but most likely the issue was the fuel pump and faulty emergency light switch. I was driving back home from school break and still had a 5 hour drive to get home. The cost to fix both issues was estimated at over $1800, my dad opted to get pump replaced (@ over $1300) since this was since most likely will get me on the road again based on conversation he had with technician. Technician also did not guarantee that this would solve the issue since there were many codes activated and would only clear codes after servicing vehicle and go from there.
The lights on this car pops up weekly sometimes when im driving pass 40 mph my car will just shut off. My brake hold button works on in off since ive gotten it i constantly get warnings like brake system problem, tire pressure monitor system problem, electrical prower steer Problem, acc problem, emissions problems all at once i have taking it to the dealer plenty of times but the problem never gets resolved i have been in almost 5 accidents due to my car just losing power
Every warning light is turned on my vehicle. Dealer said it’s the fuel injectors however riverside is out of stock. Due to fuel injectors my line assist, emergency collision and cruise control does not work. Parts are not available on any auto zone or any other car part dealers. I’m worried my car might start a fire or some type of mechanical failure during my driving. Online shows multiple people having the same issue and recommends not buying a Honda. Please help, thank you
I was driving on the freeway in Houston, TX going 65 mph in the middle lane and my engine begin to lose power, and start stalling. Almost causing me to wreck with my 8 yr old son in the back seat. I was advised by my the dealership that Honda has a recall on fuel pumpt with my year and model. I contacted Honda and was advised my car is the year and model of the fuel pump recall, but it wasn’t effective by it. I feel that’s very strange my car didn’t apply to the recall, but it’s doing the same thing other owners car doing with the faulty fuel pump recall. I am terrified by the incident and it has cause me so much anxiety and stress. I look to get my car repaired due to the recall and Honda isn’t being helpful after myself and child almost had a wreck
Several warning lights appeared on the dash of my 2018 Honda Accord last week, including the check engine light along with several other warnings. The vehicle was acting very strange while I was driving it to the dealership, especially going up inclines. I was informed the fuel pump needed to be replaced, which has now been accomplished. The vehicle only has 34575 miles on it. In my lifetime, I have never had a car that needed a fuel pump replaced, and this one has less than 35,000 miles on it. I feel the fuel pump was inherently defective, not the result of normal wear and tear. I could not have driven this car safely any distance. It has now been replaced, but I believe this fuel pump could cause serious problems and accidents for others if not corrected.
My car ran good up until July 29, 2023. There was a slight tornado and lots of rain when I parked the car it was fine hour later it began to stall and became undriveable. I called my insurance company Progressive and called Honda of Manchester and Progressive had the car towed to Honda. They came back with the diagnosis of my HeadGaskit needs to be replaced my fuel injectors are miss firing and the piston rings needs to be replaced. I have 84,998 miles on the car and all of the maintenance records are up to date. Honda gave me a price of $4,800+ to have it fixed. Where I’m concerned at is how can these many problems happen at one time and I had know warning signs it just stopped running all of a sudden.
We were told the fuel injectors were bad. This put us and others at risk as the car stopped moving when we pulled into traffic. The problem has been confirmed by the Honda Cars of Rock Hill dealership. The vehicle has been inspected by the Honda Cars of Rock Hill dealership. There were no warming lamps or messages that appeared before this happened.
While in traffic, all system problem lights came on and the vehicle would not accelerate. Dealer diagnosed as fuel pump failure.
Engine loss power on and off and start going slow
I was on a hill my car stalled I hit the gas pedal it wouldn't accelerate so I let off the padel and went to try to accelerate for the second time but as I did it took off and I hit a pole
Vehicle stalls during idle and during operation of vehicle. Vehicle is hard to start once its stalls out.
In April 2023, our car's dashboard lit-up and we took the car to the Honda dealership. The service center diagnosed a misfiring cylinder caused by a fuel injection system problem, and we were advised that all fuel injectors need replaced. Symptoms of the fuel injector issue would be less vehicle power and the potential to stall completely, and the service center informed us to avoid driving long distances but that the fuel injectors were on national backorder. Honda has not provided any timeline or updates, or a loaner vehicle in the interim, even though it has been nearly 2 months. There were no warnings beforehand, and driving without replacing the fuel injectors is dangerous due to the risk of stalling. It has been stated this is not a unique issue, and the service center has multiple people waiting on these parts and fixes.
About two months ago when I was driving home from work, my car slowing down suddenly and it would not accelerate, so I pulled over to the side and cut it off the engine for 2 minutes then I started the engine back and it seems like nothing happened, I drove my car like normal everyday. Then one month later all the warning light came up so I called the honda service and I have to leave my car over there, then they called me, it has a problem with Fuel injector and it will cost about $1400 to replace the part and I said go head and fix it. They called me back that they could not get the part due to the back ordered and they do not know when they gonna get the part. They said it could be 7 days to 12 months to get that part. I am pretty upset about this matter. How can Honda do not have that part?? Anyway my car only has 32,000 mile and I always take car my car and it had problem already. I had Honda accord 2014 before and had no problem at all, that is why I bought another Honda Accord. It is such a disappointment and I can not believe that they don’t have the part to fix the problem. I always like Honda for my car but I think I will not gonna buy Honda for my next car if they can not fix this problem.
On Easter 2023, my family and I were traveling when the check engine light came on. A warning indicated there may be an emissions problem. I contacted my local dealership the following morning and was told that there was a safety recall on seatbelts ( had no idea) and that I’d have to wait until 5/1 in order to get a loaner. I was advised if I brought the car in sooner, I wouldn’t be allowed to leave in it if needed parts weren’t available. I was told that the car was safe to drive as long as check engine didn’t flash. On 4/26, I was a block away from my home when several warnings began to illuminate all at once- “adaptive cruise control is failing, see dealer”, “ collision mitigation braking system failure, see dealer” among several more warnings. I contacted the dealership again and was told to keep my appointment the following week. I took my car in on 5/1 and was told that I needed to replace fuel injectors at 68k miles! I was quoted $2100 for the repair and parts however the part can’t be located due to being on a critical back order. It seems that staff at Honda have been provided a script to ask consumers to pay for the part in order to be given an eta which is ridiculous. I questioned why the dealership couldn’t order the part and I pay once it arrives to ensure my car received the part. 2 weeks later and still no ETA. Honda should honor their brand and customers and issue a recall as I’ve read this is a frequent problem on the 2018 model Accords.
Check engine and 11 other warning lights appear. Dealership reports it as faulty fuel injectors and driving should be avoided or limited. The repair is covered under an extended warranty as there is apparently a known issue with design of the parts used in manufacturing. The issue is no parts are available to repair it under warranty however dealership claims they can fix it for cost of about $1500 using “other fuel injectors.”
MY CAR KEEPS SLOWING DOWN ON ME WHILE DRIVING AND THAS DANGEROUS I HAVE TWO KIDS!! MY CAR WILL NOT Accelerate ONCE IT SLOWS DOWN . MY CAR ENGINE LIGHTS KEEPS BLINKING. ALL MY LIGHTS BEEN ON MY CAR FOR A YEAR AND THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED IT NEEDS TO B W RECALL OM THESE CARS BEFORE HONDA HAVE W LAWSUIT WITH THESE CARS TO MANY PEOPLE HAVING THESE PROBLEMS. I HAVE HAD MY CAR TWO YEARS NO WAY I SHOULD HAVE THESE PROBLEMS WITH THEY CARS
My car 40,000 miles and all waring lights are coming on the dash such check engine,lane acc,steering,brake ,parking , took to Honda dealer they say nothing was wrong now there saying it the fuel inject and it will be 1,250 to fix i been look it up and see there's a lot of other ppl with the same problem but no recall for the 2018 Honda Accord sport
Vehículo se apagó en vía de rodaje, prendiendo todas las alertas de seguridad del tablero. Se envió a taller con diagnóstico P0087. Google Translate; Vehicle shut down on taxiway, turning on all security alerts on the dashboard. It was sent to the workshop with diagnosis P0087. LK*
There has been a series of constant issues with this model and each issue has been brought to a certified Honda dealership and was supposedly "fixed" engine code P0300 (random/multiple cylinder misfire),P2651 B rocker arm Actuator system, P0087 Fuel Rail/system pressure, P0304,P0303 cylinder 3 and 4 misfire, engine temperature always above normal. These issues on multiple situations has put my safety and the safety of others at the highest risk. The motor vehicle due to these issues randomly would lose power to the point where stepping on the gas doesn't not accelerate the car, forcing me to stop in the middle of the highway having other vehicles stop suddenly and swerve around me with children in the vehicle. Another occasion going up a hill the car beings to stutter losing power resulting to the car shutting off, forcing me engage These reoccurring issues have also randomly caused the vehicle to not start. Multiple warning signs are lit across the dashboard. These occurrence are random with no warning sign The vehicle has been brought to the same dealership numerous times claiming each issue was fixed but within a few weeks more issues came. The last visit i was told as a "solution" i need to buy a new engine out of pocket, unacceptable for a Honda engine with 64000 miles on it. This oil dilution issue need a proper answer before someone is serious injured.
I have taken my Honda because of engine misfiring. They said there is coolant seeping in the pistons and we red a new engine gasket and the cost is $4,000. All the warning lights are turning on and alerting the driver but when I took it in and paid $380 they can’t figure out why these are turning on. The fuel injectors and belt are another item that has been alerted to being an issue. These are problems my 20 year old car has not encountered and this is a 2018. The airbags warning has been an issue at least once every few months.
Accord is throwing codes saying cylinder 1 and 4 are misfiring. It's causes several warning to appear. Occasionally will go into "limo mode." Mechanic says fuel injectors need replaced. Only 60k miles.
My 2018 Honda Accord Ex-L 91,560 miles has an issue with the fuel pump/injectors while driving on the roadway and/or highway. My vehicle will come to a mid stop abruptly because it is not getting enough power to the engine from the fuel pump. This has caused safety issue to myself, passengers in my vehicle, pedestrians and and other drivers while operating my vehicle. Honda has been made aware of this issue and has over 650,000 vehicles manufactured between 2018-2020 with the same reported issue and has previously issued a recall for only certain 2018-2020 vehicles. Furthermore, Honda refuses to repair my 2018 vehicle under the recall for the same issue based on my VIN#. I have notified Honda of the inherent danger to myself and others and they have ignored the safety hazard and refuse to repair the fuel pump which typically has a life span of 250,000 miles or more.
Two cylinders began misfiring on the same day due to fuel injectors. Dealership inspected the injectors and confirmed they needed to be replaced. Under 60k miles on the vehicle. This caused a check engine light as well as 8 other error messages to show on the dash. Exhaust system error message was seen. Brake system light and ABS light turned on due to the fault in the exhaust system. Unclear if the systems are still working as intended. There were no prior warnings or issues until these dash lights turned on. Fuel injector issues causing engine misfire is dangerous at high speeds and can cause further damage to the vehicle.
Fuel Injectors, head gasket, cooling system
Hello, On 12/19/2022 when I started my 2018 Honda Accord EX 1.5L it started giving me all the warning lights at a time and suggested me see Honda dealer. I took it nearby Honda dealer and they diagnosed the issue and found that there is issue with fuel injector CODED PO301 CYLINDER 1 MISFIRE 1st - CLEARED CODES Upon rescanning - recorded multiple misfires on cylinder 2,swapped coils and plugs no change misfire did not follow. Failed Air Fuel Test – Step 1: Replace Fuel injectors with Fuel Pipe AND CHECK VALVE CLEARANCE (Valve Adjustment). And Honda dealer mentioned that it is not covered by warranty.
2018 Honda Accord 1.5 with 56k miles: while driving on the freeway, all the warning lights came on and jerked. Pulled over for a safety measure and turned engine off and turned it back on. Error code did not clear. My first initial thought was a file injector issue. Took it to the shop, After diagnosis, they said it was a misfiring (I’m like ok) they replaced coil and spark plug. After 1-2 months, tissue had came back. I checked a error code and it was another misfire. After a thorough search, looks like Honda has been having issues with fuel injectors but is not acknowledging the problem. They keep getting a misfire code on cylinder 4, but after checking the coil and spark plugs they said nothing is wrong.
Went to drive my car all the warning lights were going off, emissions warning, collision mitigation system disabled etc. Lack of power so parked car and took to dealership. Dealership said it is the fuel injectors and need replaced.
One day all the car warning lights came on. After I backed out of the driveway, I placed the car in drive and tried to accelerate. When I stepped on the gas pedal the car barely accelerated. It barely moved. I turned of the engine and turned it back on again and the car was ok again, but this keeps happening from time to time. I've had the car checked a few times, but mechanics weren't sure what's wrong with the car. They keep getting a misfire code on number one, but after checking the spark plugs they said nothing is wrong with the spark plugs.
I purchase my 2018 Honda Accord 1.5l Touring as a second owner from a Honda dealership when it had one previous owner and only 14,000 miles on it. Since the day I drove away the vehicle would shake slightly for a few seconds upon a cold start up. I really didn't think much of it at first because I have never had a Honda and it quickly would stop. Fast Forward about 14 days Lateran I was getting on the highway and when I went to move from the on ramp into a lane the car suddenly went into limp mode and every light on the dashboard came on. I was almost killed by a semi truck no joke. I then had it towed to the dealership and they called me literally one hour after they opened and said it was just because my tail light was getting water (this made zero sense to me but I said ok). Turns out that they magically figured out what the issue was (because it would happen once every couple months) right after warranty was up. They claim it is the fuel injectors and they need to be replaced at the cost of $1,600. This is insane and clearly a major issue they are ignoring.
You lose power while driving than it stalls to about 20 mph Emmission warning lights come on. After cool down the car will drive normal speed again for a short time before it repeats itself driving 20 mph with emission warning light coming on. It is a very hazardous condition and dealerships can’t figure anything out. We have spent 1600.00 on fuel ejectors And car still doing the same thing. Next morning my husband drive it to work and was put in a hazardous condition.
2018 Accord Sport 1.5T - got a tune-up at around 98,000 miles. 1 month later, car went into 'limp' mode while trying to accelerate. Check engine code indicated misfire on cylinder 3. Had to have it towed - dealer found it also misfiring on cylinder 4 and determined it was a defective spark plug since they had just replaced all of them. 1 month later, did the same thing. Took it to a different dealer and they put a camera into each cylinder and found that cylinder 3 and to a lesser extent cylinder 4 were dirty. They are saying that head gasket is leaking coolant into the cylinders and recommending cylinder head replacement. This poses a safety issue as it is dangerous if the car won't accelerate when you expect that it should. Standard internet search indicates that this seems to be a fairly common issue with this particular engine (1.5T).
I have a 2018 Honda Accord 2.0. Twice it left me stranded on the side of the road due to a failing fuel pump. the first time it kicked back on after an hour and all the lights turned off so they said a diagnostic cannot be performed. The second time I was driving in the middle of the road and the engine cut off and would not start, luckily I had some space to pull over but I was still in traffic and I called a tow truck. It took 6 1/2 hours to finally get it to the Honda dealership and they told me my fuel pump had failed and there is a recall for 2018 2.0s but not my specific Vin so I have to cover the cost. It’s $1055 plus taxes even though there’s an active recall for other 2018 2.0‘s but not my exact vehicle. The part is on back order and can take up to a month they are providing no service car and no help on the recall.
While driving the whole dash board lights up staring break issues, lane departure issues. The car starts julring on ewsy. I was terrified. Then I moved off eway because the car breaks automatically on its own and slows down. The cars are flying around me. It turns out it's the fuel pump. I assume all accords are having fuel pump issues because I was told it would be October before I would receive a fuel pump on a 3yr old Honda sport. Please investigate and recall. This vehicle is having fuel pump issues and could kill someone when it breaks on the eway out of nowhere, slows down and dash board lights up. I was very lucky. It could've easily cased a major accident.
Failing fuel injectors. Stalls vehicle in highway. May cause accident/collision.
2018 Honda Accord 1.5Turbo LX - Fuel Injector Failure at 58,600 - diagnosed at Honda Superstore of Lisle, IL. As a result car has low power, all safety features are deactivated, and emission system is malfunctioning. Submitting this issue as HONDA has had several other models with early fuel injector failure which it has recalled in the past. Please contact me if a fuel injector recall is issued for my car.
My Honda Accord Sport has only 47,500 miles and it needs a new Fuel Rail. Code P2187. I have had Hondas for over 20 years and this has never happened before. I read that some 2018 honda model had extended warranty for Fuel Injectors. The Honda Accord should fall under that extended warranty.
My fuel or engine is having issues. I took it in and they told me my fuel pump needed to be replaced and my injectors were bad. This is an active recall on some this car but not my VIN number... My car has stalled out many times while driving forcing me to pull over and restart my car. I think my VIN needs to be recalled also since this is clearly the same issue.
Engine suddenly started to have a rough idle. All warning lights turned on. Took car to dealer, left it for 2 days. They said that there was a misfire present on cylinder #3 & that after driving the car, the lights then did not appear. They could not reproduce the error. They recommended that I replace the spark plugs, ignition coils , & have a fuel injection clean done. A few days later, all warnings lights turn on after a rough idle and misfire occurred frequently. Took vehicle to a local shop, they also said there was a misfire present. Local shop also recommended that I replace the spark plugs, ignition coils, and have a fuel injection clean done. I replaced all items and conducted the fuel injection clean as suggested. Problem still exists and is not resolved. Dealer and local shop say that the injectors may need to be replaced as this is a constant issue with this engine. Vehicle has 95,000 miles. Fuel injectors seem to be the culprit. My vehicle is available for inspection. During the misfires, the car suddenly lost engine power and momentum. This was dangerous as this occurred several times on highway driving. The problem has caused a failed vehicle inspection report at a local shop even when warning lights disappeared. Vehicle has not been inspected by manufacture, insurance, police, or others. Warning lights and symptoms first appeared on March 31st.
Started car up on morning all lights on dash board came on, took it had it checked by three different car shops, they said the car was showing three misfire codes, had spark plugs put in the car, two weeks later started car let warm left home to go to drop kids off to school and go to work, car started stalling in the middle of traffic I made it to the side of the road my husband who is also a mechanic told me to cut it of for 5 mins, I did so and the car ran find for the rest of the day, next morning same thing happen again me and my husband took it to the Honda dealership, we were told that a recall was in affect for the car by one lady, then another lady said it wasn't on my car it was Accords with 2.0 engine, my husband then started calling around pricing fuel pumps $1300 for a new pump and then come to find out that the 1.5 and the 2.0 engine use the exact same pump, if the pump was recalled for the 2.0 why not the 1.5 that has the same exact pump, the dealership did the recall service that was on my car some kind of software update, next day tried to start my car it did nothing but turn over and would not start after second try it started and all the lights were on in my dash board again, my husband started a google search on my car and found that their are a lot of complaints on this mode all on the same problems I'm having with mind, and a lot of complaints about the transmission in these cars as well, me and my kids could have been hit from the back by another car when the car stalled out, and when all my lights come on in the dash the cars anti crash system along with a lot of other things do work as they should.
All warning indicator lights came on and I took car to a Certified Auto Mechanic who said it was caused by the fuel pump problems surrounding Honda cars. Said it affected the fuel injectors (mis-fire) and I should take it to Honda dealer for fix. Honda dealer said this VIN of my 2018 Honda is not on the recall. I asked about being covered by the 5 year power train warranty and was told that this did not fall under that warranty. The auto mechanic said he would have to charge around $2000 to replace the fuel injector (1), but the others would probably go bad unless everything (Pump and injectors) were replaced. There over 500 complaints with NHTSA on this year model and over 200 of those are similar problems that match prior recalls for same model and year but different vin numbers. The reports from Honda to NHTSA regarding selected "recall" units does not prevent other problems identified due to Indian defective parts surrounding the fuel pump problems. If I read all the details correctly only hundreds of just 10,000 recalls have been completed. Why would Honda/NHTSA not want to include the few other hundred that may be present to prevent accidents and uphold the Honda reputation of quality?
Vehicle suddenly stopped turning over, replaced battery incase it wasn’t enough. Vehicle had a little under a quarter tank of gas so added another gallon or two and that brought it up to 1/2 a tank. Vehicle turned on once rough then smoothed out and then shut off in the road 10 minutes later. There are recalls for this exact problem with other Honda Accords my year but my vin did not qualify in the listing.Car belongs to grandmother Diana evans my name is Quinten and I am currently using my friends phone because mine is broken and she has been helping me with the vehicle.
All warning lights are lit after taking to dealer for a recall. After that the car would randomly lose power and could stall.
Fuel pump failed in vehicle 3 seperate times. All three times the vehicle had every warning light on including emissions system, cruise control disabled, lane keeper assistance disabled, power steering disabled and 7 other warning lights. Vehicle was brought into a honda dealership 3 times and issue was diagnosed 3 different ways. Issue #1 was rodents chewed wires, Issue #2 was cmp sensor error, Issue #3 was the fuel pump needed to be replaced. Because of the fuel pump the engine would stall/not be able to accelerate almost causing an accident because car would stall if gas pedal was pressed down as normal to reach normal speeds. Dealership confirmed the warning lights and sluggish acceleration and stalling of the engine. Recalls are available for some 2018-2019 and 2020 accords but according to my VIN my car was supposedly not included. Issues first appeared around almost at the 3 year mark and vehicle was just over 15.5k miles.
2018 Honda Accord was purchased in February 2021 used from a Honda dealership which came with 1 year bumper to bumper warranty. I noticed my engine light as well as all of the Honda sensing lights on in my dashboard. Honda told me my fuel injectors need to be replaced and is charging me $1600 even though my 1 year warranty is still active.
THE FUEL PUMPS, MADE BY SUPPLIER DENSO, WERE "EXPOSED TO PRODUCTION SOLVENT DRYING FOR LONGER PERIODS OF TIME" DURING MANUFACTURING, ACCORDING TO THE NHTSA RECALL REPORT, WHICH COULD CAUSE SURFACE CRACKING AND EXCESSIVE FUEL ABSORPTION AND EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE IMPELLER TO BECOME DEFORMED AND FAIL. THE FUEL PUMPS ON VEHICLES PRODUCED OUTSIDE LIMITED DATES GIVEN ON THE REPORT DO NOT HAVE THE PROBLEM. THIS RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE THE 2018 HONDA ACCORD MODELS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. MY CAR IS STALLING THE EMISSIONS WARNING LIGHT IS ON ALONG WITH THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE, AND THE COLLISION MITIGATION. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THE PUT IN PLACE LAST YEAR BEING THAT IS IS THE SAME ISSUES. MY VEHICLE WOULD STALL IN A PARKING SPOT AT MY HOME WHEN I'M FIRST STARTING IT. IT WOULD FLASH A WARNING LIKE A CAR IS IN FRONT OF ME RANDOMLY WHEN NOTHING IS THERE. I HAVEN'T GOT INTO A WREAK BUT I FREE THAT I MAY BE IN ONE IF THIS ISSUE ISN'T FIXED AND BEING THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH PREVIOUS MODELS I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET. I BROUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT. THERE IS NO REASON WHY I SHOULD BE CHANGING THE FUEL INJECTOR 3 YEARS LATER.

HOWEVER, ON OCCASION, IT HAS SHIFTED SO HARD THAT EVERYTHING FELL OFF MY SEAT AND ONE TIME I THOUGHT IT WAS GOING TO STALL IN THE INTERSECTION WHEN I HAD STARTED UP AFTER WAITING FOR A RED LIGHT. I'VE HAD THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE A FEW TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT WAS PURCHASED IN MAY, 2018 AND EACH TIME I AM TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND THAT IS JUST HOW IT RUNS. I'VE HAD TWO OTHER HONDAS AND LOVED THEM. I DOUBT THIS IS THE WAY HONDA INTENDED THIS VEHICLE TO RUN. FOR 2 1/2 YEARS I HAVE DEALT WITH THIS PROBLEM. ALSO, I CONTACTED HONDA CORPORATION DIRECTLY. I RECEIVED A CASE NUMBER AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO A DIFFERENT DEALER FOR SERVICE. IT WAS THE SAME SONG AND DANCE. TODAY I WAS PRICING WHAT MY CAR WAS WORTH AND I NOTED THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE FUEL SYSTEM. HOWEVER, WHEN I PUT IN MY VIN, IT SAYS MY CAR IS NOT AFFECTED. FOR A MOMENT THERE, I THOUGHT JUST MAYBE I COULD FINALLY GET THIS PROBLEM RESOLVED. NO SUCH LUCK.

VEHICLE HAD ISSUES CRANKING AND THE DISPLAY HAD EVERY ERROR CODE FLASHING ONE AFTER THE OTHER. AFTER GOING TO THE DEALERSHIP WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS THE FUEL PUMP. IT WAS REPLACED IN JULY. THE EXACT SAME ISSUE HAS HAPPENED AGAIN IN OCTOBER IF THE SAME YEAR AND WE ARE BEING TOLD THAT IT IS THE FUEL PUMP AGAIN.

7/17/19. 2018 ACCORD TOURING 2.0 PURCHASED NEW IN NOVEMBER (HAS ABOUT 11,000 MILES NOW). I WAS DRIVING 65MPH ON HIGHWAY WHEN CAR MADE LOUD CLUNKING NOISE, BEGAN TO SMOKE INTENSELY, AND SHUDDERED TO A STOP AND DIED. I WAS ON BLUETOOTH PHONE CALL AT THE TIME AND THE PERSON ON THE OTHER END HEARD IT AND ASKED WHAT IT WAS. I SAID I THOUGHT THE ENGINE WAS ON FIRE. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER JUST AS EVERY POSSIBLE WARNING LIGHT FLASHED ON DASH AND PROFUSE SMOKE POURED FROM SIDES AND UNDER HOOD. I JUMPED OUT AND MOVED AWAY FROM VEHICLE, SEEING A LONG STREAM OF LIQUID FROM UNDER THE CAR ALONG THE ROAD WHERE I HAD PULLED OVER. FIRE RESCUE CAME, ALTHOUGH THE CAR DID NOT IGNITE. THEY AND THE ROADSIDE SERVICE MAN ADVISED ME THAT OIL HAD EXPLODED EVERYWHERE, AS FROM A HIGH PRESSURE SITUATION. THE CAR HAS HAD ONE OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALER, PER ITS MAINTENANCE SCHEDULE, AND OTHERWISE HAS HAD NOTHING DONE. I DID HEAR A STRANGE NOISE COMING FROM IT THE PREVIOUS EVENING--LOUD ENOUGH THAT I CHECKED TO SEE IF IT HAD ANY MAINTENANCE WARNINGS, WHICH IT DID NOT. IT SAID MY OIL WAS AT 60% AND WOULD NEED A B1 WHEN IT WAS TIME. AFTER MY CAR DIED, IT REQUIRED A TOW TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT EVEN TURN IT ON AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT IS WRONG, BUT THEY NEED A SPECIALIST TO COME LOOK AT IT. I'M CONCERNED ABOUT HOW UTTERLY DANGEROUS THE SITUATION WAS. IF IT HAD BEEN LATER IN THE DAY WITH HEAVIER TRAFFIC, MY LIFE WOULD HAVE BEEN AT EVEN GREATER RISK. IT SEEMS REALLY UNUSUAL TO HAVE SUCH A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE FOR NO REASON ON A NEW, HISTORICALLY RELIABLE VEHICLE.

AFTER CAR HAS WARMED UP, UPON A RESTART, GASOLINE ODOR COMES THROUGH AIR VENTS AS CAR IDLES. THIS IS ON THE 2.0L TURBO ENGINE IN THE SPORT MODEL.
Mileage: 7,000
ENGINE OIL SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE. THIS IS THE SAME 1.5L TURBO GDI ENGINE THAT HAS BEEN RECALLED ALREADY IN THE CIVIC AND CRV.
UPON COMPLETION OF THE DRIVING THE CAR, I WILL PUT THE CAR INTO THE GARAGE. AFTER 10-20 MINUTES HAS PASSED, I WALK OUT TO THE GARAGE AND THE WHOLE GARAGE SMELLS LIKE UNBURNT FUEL. ON OCCASION IF THE TIME BETWEEN DRIVES IS SHORT, THE ENTIRE INSIDE OF THE CAR WILL ALSO SMELL LIKE FUEL. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALER 4 TIMES SO FAR, WITH NO LUCK HELPING. TODAY WILL BE THE 5TH TIME IN THE FIRST 20000 MILES. I PUT IT AS LAST WEEK BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT MADE ME SEND IT BACK TO DEALER YET AGAIN, BUT THIS HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR MONTHS.

TWO SEPARATE ISSUES: 1) WITH ONLY 2,400 MILES ON THE ACCORD, ON OCTOBER 7, 2018 IT SUDDENLY LOST POWER 2 OR 3 TIMES OVER A 60-MILE STRETCH OF THE BUSY 405 FREEWAY, EACH TIME SLOWING FROM 65 MPH TO APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH OR LESS DESPITE MAINTAINING EVEN PRESSURE ON THE ACCELERATOR. THE CAR DID NOT RESPOND TO PRESSURE ON THE GAS PEDAL. NO CRUISE CONTROL WAS USED AT ANY TIME. THE SUDDEN DECELERATION COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. 2) ON NOVEMBER 30, 2018, I ATTEMPTED TO RESUME MOTION AFTER STOPPING FOR A RED LIGHT. THE ACCORD'S GAS PEDAL FAILED TO RESPOND FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 TO 6 SECONDS, THEN SUDDENLY LURCHED FORWARD. THIS ALSO COULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE IN THE ENGINE AND RISING OIL LEVEL. CAR DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 200 MILES ON IT! THIS IS NOT WHAT I HAD EXPECTED FROM A HONDA.
I HAD AN EVENT WITH MY TURBO HOSE BEING LOOSE, DEALER TECH SAID MUST HAVE BEEN LOOSE COMING FROM THE FACTORY. HERE IS THE THREAD. MY SITUATION IS ILLUSTRATED WITH MY HANDLE, "MIKIWOLF". BASICALLY, LOST POWER IN MY VEHICLE AFTER 1850 MILES AND HAD IT TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. AT FIRST THEY SAID IT WAS BAD FUEL AND QUOTED ME $800 TO CLEAN THE FUEL TANK. TECH KEPT USING "ETHANOL" AND "WATER" INTERCHANGEABLY WHICH CONFUSED ME. A DAY LATER I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TECH SAID IT WAS BAD GAS WITH JUST 5% ETHANOL, FUEL WAS TOO RICH CREATING THE PROBLEM FOR ME. EVEN AFTER I EXPRESSED THAT ETHANOL IS SIMPLY AN ADDITIVE, IT MEANT LITTLE TO THIS 20-SOMETHING KID. LONG STORY SHORT, AFTER I ASKED HIM TO TEST FOR WATER, HE WOUND UP DOING A VISUAL INSPECTION AND FOUND THE TURBO INLET PIPE WAS LOOSE, TIGHTENED IT, AND DID A TEST DRIVE - PROBLEM FIXED. THE TECH WENT ON TO SAY THAT HIS INTERNAL FORUM SHOWS THIS SITUATION HAPPENING MORE AND MORE WITH ACCORDS. HE THINKS THEY ARE COMING FROM THE FACTORY TOO LOOSE AND GOING FORWARD HE KNOWS WHAT TO LOOK FOR NOW. THE DEALERSHIP DID THE RIGHT THING TO WORK WITH ME AND RECONCILE THEIR FINDINGS WITH ME. PROBLEM IS, NOT EVERYONE IS AS TECHNICAL AS I AM AND OVERALL HONDA SEEMS TO HAVE A BUILD ISSUE TO RESOLVE AND BROADLY INVESTIGATE.

SIMILAR TO NHTSB COMPLAINT ID# 11111897, VEHICLE LOST POWER WHILE IN MOTION ON 7/21/208 ON HIGHWAY IN CONGESTION WHILE RAINING. IT HAS SINCE BEEN TOWED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE CURRENTLY UNDERGOING REPAIR WORK. I WAS TOLD FUEL INJECTORS NEEDED REPLACEMENT UNDER WARRANTY. I HOPE THIS SOLVES THE ISSUE AND DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN AS I WAS PUT IN A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT AFTERNOON.
