CarComplaints.com Notes: Some people think the seats in the 2015 Accord are uncomfortable, which is a problem that has plagued the Accord since 2008.

However our opinion is the seats have gotten better, & aside from that issue, the 2015 model year seems relatively trouble free.

Winter 2022 The problem occurred after icy conditions in Texas and ABS, traction control and steering system lights came on in my Gage cluster, since then i have tried many things to fix the issue went as far as replacing the knuckle full assembly with abs speed sensor. Later I search across the internet of honda owners and noticed its a common issue and a very expensive 1, my local honda quoted $2800 for the part. My safety has been compromised on many occasions including brakes locking during wet conditions, my car slipped out of control because of the lack of traction control nearly causing a bad accident. I have been driving extremely cautiously, and during wet conditions driving my other vehicle. Due to the abs/vsa module malfunction there are so many components attached to the system Including tpms, srs, steering system, and including but not limited to ABS, currently all these lights are on in my dashboard please investigate this common issue that many honda owners experienced and after further research many youtubers opened module to discover a lot of circuit to selinoid issues, Please help us make Honda accountable for there mistakes and faulty parts that are so expensive and cheaply made, that may or have caused so many Americans hardship and financial repercussions. I shall be very tahnkful.

Issue where multiple dashboard indicator lights coming on. Tire Pressure, ABS, Power Steering, and Traction Control lights specifically all on at the same time. Car typically drives fine but will intermittently not want to accelerate and/or brakes are trying to apply themselves while trying to accelerate. This is a dangerous safety issue as I could be driving on the highway the car all of sudden would not continue accelerating. Short term Workaround is turning Traction Control off but does not last. In general issue seems to be electrical. Could be battery, ABS Module needing a reset to neutral, wheel speed sensors are bad, PCM Module faulty, fuel pump failing, VSA issue or needing a reset, faulty wiring, or a combination of all of these mentioned. I took to a Honda dealership (Mall of GA) and they could not resolve the issue and recommended a VSA Module replacement which is a $2000+ repair. This issue came up for me in mid-July 2023 and as of this post is still an issue. This should be recall as I keep seeing complaints about this online in various forums for 2012-2017 Honda Accords.

2015 has a bad ABS Modulator fail (Solenoid valve). My car only has ~75k miles. It seems this is a common error with 2010-2015 Honda Accords and presents a safety concern. Honda has not issued a recall.

There has been numerous reports on forums such as Reddit and also in most comments on youtube concerning the VSA solenoid valve malfunction and how it is a safety concern on almost all Honda Accord 12-17. Recently, I have been a victim of this and the repair is so pricy that it is either I take a loan to fix it, or I become a risk to other road users. I would advise that NHTSA issue a recall on all Honda Accord trims (2012-2017) as most vehicles on the road will have this issue and will pose a safety concern to other road users.

The dash lit up with every warning light possible, including the engine light. The Honda dealership said that it was a defective ABS module. I've seen many reports of this same problem online.

ABS Module is defective. Dashboard lights corresponding to ABS and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems continuously turn on and off. A quick online search proves that this is a very common issue on Honda Accords. This was also confirmed by Honda Dealer Service department and two independent mechanics. Honda needs to issue a recall for effected vehicles.

While driving my FCW lights came and said failure. I took my car to an independent service center and they confirmed that many Hondas with the same year have had this same problem. Told me that he wouldn't even be able to repair because the part needed to fix the light from coming on was unavailable all across the world. So many Hondas have had this same issue and needed to repair this issue that it's unavailable. I had the car less than one year after I bought it used with less than 95,000 miles. I've owned 5 other Honda accords that would go forever and have 200,000+ miles without any issues. I've already had to place my alternator 5 times and starter as well.

Some time car won't start while pressing start button, I replaced the battery, still issue is there. I noticed that, when I have this issue break become stiff. I contacted Honda service they told this is very common issue across Honda 2015. The Y quote me 190$ for starter inspection and another 190$ for break inspection, these are just for inspections. Since they told my case was the 3rd case in that day and Honda 2015 Accord model has faulty starter, I wonder whether can you do a research and make a recall ?

I was about to park my 2015 Honda Accord LX in a parking spot in parking lot in front of a shopping centre. The car was cruising at 2-3 miles per hour at this time. There was a sudden and rapid acceleration which was highly disproportionate to the slow speed while I was entering the parking spot. I applied the brakes but it didn't help stop or slow down the vehicle. The car moved forward with the same rapid acceleration in the empty parking spot in front and started moving towards the next parking row in front. I swung the car to the right on to the road between the two parking rows in order to avoid collision with the cars in the next row. The car was still moving with rapid acceleration. I tried applying brakes hard but the car wouldn't slow down or stop. I brushed the bumper of another car in the process. I finally hit another car parked near a curb at the end of the parking lot. The impact was so high that the other car swung 90 degrees. My car stopped after getting stuck on the curb and wedged against the other car. The airbags exploded due to the huge impact. I survived the accident with bruises and bumps on my hands, knees, and feet. Fortunately, no other person in the parking lot was injured in the accident. Accident date and time: June 25, 2020 5:15 pm eastern. Location: Parking lot of North town plaza, 2856 dekalb pike, norristown, pa police report # East norriton, pa township, report number # 2020-0638219401 the car has been towed to the following location by police with my consent: Centersquaremotors 911 dekalb pike blue bell, pa 19422 (610) 277 2929 insurer: State farm

Passenger side rear brake capiler seized on a 2015 Honda Accord with only 41,400 miles on the car. Thankfully it didn't cause an accident. Before the failure, brake pads were good and measured 7 on fronts and 6 on the rears. The car had all original equipment and the 3 year manufacturers warranty had ended about 9 months prior to the failure. The failure of the capiler destroyed the brake pad making the brake metal on metal which ruined the rotor. The failure required the car to need replacement of rear capilers, brake pads, and rotors on both rear tires. The safety department should look into defects of the Honda Accord rear braking system because these defects/failures could cause serious accidents and injuries.

Rear disc brake calipers locked up causing emergency brake to stay applied to brakes resulting in loss of brake pad and burning of brake pads and rotors. This is the second time this has happened. Also, brake loss occurred when the car battery failed causing the brake assist system to fail. The second incident resulted in a collision with a parked vehicle.

Had my 2015 Honda Accord ex-L in for service today, and asked them to check the brakes because the pedal was soft again. In the last year to try and correct the soft pedal I have replaced the pads and rotors, and a few months had the brakes bled. Dealership tells me they have seen issues with the master cylinder, lucky I had the extended warranty so it will only cost me the deductible but there is something wrong have master cylinder problems at 36000 miles.

Faulty brake calipers: My 2015 Accord 4dr with 42K miles was recently at the Honda dealer here in greenwich, ct. The service department reported that the rear brakes were "almost metal on metal" and needed to be replaced. I reminded the service department that rear brakes should never wear our before front brakes. They replied that this is "normal in newer cars". I asked to retain the parts for examination. No surprise that the pads are worn abnormally. Only one of the four rear pads needed to be replaced (see photo), clearly indicating a sticking caliper. I wanted to notify NHTSA as this may be a safely concern, and not just poor customer service.
