Was driving on main road of subdivision at approximately 30 mph the car suddenly lost a lot of power. Would not accelerate past 20 mph even when pressing on accelerator. Accelerator pedal sensor stopped working.
My car has had engine issues for the last almost 8 years. Burning oil at a massive rate. It also stalls with this sudden jerk and rocking sensation when accelerating/shifting at a low speed. I bought my car brand new but first began experiencing this rocking sensation in November of 2008 while driving down a slight incline at a low speed on a street. This rocking stopped on its own for quite a while. Then in April 2011 it began again where at Honda's diagnosis and recommendation they took my engine apart and 'fixed' the problem when it later arose in 2014. This issue has now escalated to the engine stalling when I drive over 80 miles an hour - acceleration suspends until the speed drops back down to 70 miles an hour. It's so unsafe but became predictable and normal. In all of this my check engine light will not go off hence causing the car to fail emissions tests. I have brought this up to my local Honda dealership along with excessive burning of oil. I have performed the oil consumption test for the dealership to say that my consumption - though clearly excessive and very dark - is technically within Honda's parameters. Every time I re-visited either issue I was given the run around and now deemed by many mechanics even at Honda to not put anymore money into the car. The diagnoses went from O2 sensor to cam chain to now the rocker arm. In 2014 when Honda supossesly 'fixed' the cam chain I was explicitly told that this was the reason my car jerked and rocked but clearly that was a fabrication. My car presently burns at minimum 2 quarts of oil a week. Upon recent research I saw a recall on 2007 Honda accor engines for stalling but my VIN number was not included.
When I frist brought this car the air bags where not working. I was inform by macco paint shop in 2015 that the air bags had a recalled. I also called Honda corporation office in order to be compensated for the accidents I had since I brought the car in May 8 2010, Honda refuse to honor my request. I also had car repairs that didn't pass smog. I never receive a notice that Honda had a recalled on airbag until 2017 they started sending ups letters to take the car in for repairs.I am a 63 year old women with mental and physical problems. In November 2017 the company since a letter in regards of a law suit against Honda. I went online to file before the dead line, which is January 08 2018. I also request forms but I feel they didn't get them. I concern I will not get my refund. Honda corporated office has all my information and all the 7 accident I occur.

Unexpected acceleration with engine stuck at full throttle.. conditions at the time: Snow on road; large snow banks at sides of road.. I had backed out of my driveway in order to turn my car around so as to point front-out.I then started to back down the driveway.the car got stuck against a pile of snow part way into the driveway (we just had a series of large snowstorms, but the night was clear).I placed the transmission in "'drive"' and attempted to exit the driveway.a wheel stated to spin (I believe it was the right front drivewheel), so I gunned the engine.the car got free, heading toward the snow bank on the side of the road opposite the driveway.I took my foot off the gas and onto the brake, applying force on the brake.the engine remained in full throttle despite my having moved my foot off the gas and onto the brake and my applying force to the brake..the car had propelled itself into the snow bank on the opposite side of the road.the engine remained in full throttle. I could feel the pulsation of the ABS system on the brake pedal under my foot as I continued to try to brake.I finally turned off the ignition. The engine stopped. I placed the transmission into "park".I then turned the ignition back on and started the engine with my foot still on the brake, and immediately the engine was again in full throttle, although in "park"' -- so there was no movement of the vehicle.I turned off the ignition again.I turned the ignition back on. This time the idle was normal..I was able to back the car back into the driveway.

2007 Honda Accord ex V6 coupe. First failure incident came at around 88,000 miles on the car. Check engine light came on and said it was due to an oxygen sensor bank 2 sensor 1. replaced the oxygen sensor and the code disappeared. At about 96,000 miles the same error code came on. Did some research and found that this was common amongst this model Accord and engine V6. After about 5,000 miles of driving on this code with a new oxygen sensor, the cel(check engine light) flashed. I was driving on the highway in about 70 degree weather and traveling at 65 mph. After pulling over to check the car, the spark plug and coil pack had blown completely out of cylinder number 5..(another common issue for 2007 Honda Accord V6). Have not taken it to the dealer for repair costs, but the entire engine will now have to be replaced. There needs to be a recall out for this as it will not cause me to replace the entire engine. I will be calling Honda as well to see what they will be doing about this problem.
