This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
1) power train system and anti lock brake system. Base on the code found in the fix finder report my solutions were to replace the fuel pump and battery. The battery was changed one week ago and it is telling me that the battery must be change again due to an electrical issue. Yes, it is available for inspection upon request. 2) While driving my car began to accelerate picking up speed by itself and then suddenly dropped the speed. I had to pull over and stop the car. 3)unknown 4)No 5)The engine light, power steering light turned on today 8/11/2023 while driving. My car began to drive strange and accelerating by itself.
Vehicle entertainment center constantly is crashing and will not restart until vehicle is restarted. Made multiple attempts with different Honda dealerships to remedy issue and Honda can-??t replicate issue.
I found previous complaints with the same issue so I used their words and added/deleted a bit more: 2016 Honda Accord. The instrument panel or display panel often locks after having iPhone connected and using AirPlay. Have to disconnect iPhone and at times even turn off car to reset the instrument panel display. This is a hassle and if using maps can be inconvenient while driving. Audio main head unit (Honda p/n 39171-T2F-A71) produces loud static from radio speakers. The noise becomes extremely loud. The loud static continues even if the audio system power is turned off. The noise is so loud it is disorienting. The only way to stop the noise is to pull off the road and turn off the engine. The loudness of the static puts the safety of the driver at risk. The problem is intermittent and cannot be reproduced on demand. I provided the mechanic with an audio/video tape of the problem. He told me to contact American Honda about -??Goodwill-?? help provided by them. There are no warning lamps or messages prior to audio main malfunction. My problem first appeared in July 2023. The car is not driveable when the static occurs. Since I cannot drive the car with the loud static, i will have to rent a vehicle. I will report it to American Honda Motor Customer Care on July 18, 2023 to Advised that this problem is a SAFETY issue and is very expensive at $3,500.
The backup camera in my vehicle randomly but consistently stops working while the vehicle is in motion. The camera drops because the entire infotainment system crashes. The frequency of occurrence is approximately 2-3 times per month, but the problem has occurred for the past two years (around the time when Honda replaced the infotainment system due to a service bulletin). The system crashes usually within the first 1-5 minutes of driving. Sometimes it crashes when the vehicle is going forward, but a higher percentage of crashes occur in the first minute after I start the vehicle. If the vehicle is going forward and the system crashes, I lose the side camera which activates when I make a lane change to the left or a left-hand turn. I have notified Honda of this issue; i've worked with a local dealer and corresponded with Honda Corporate. Importantly, I provided Honda with photos showing the system failure. However, Honda Corporate refuses to fix the problem because, in their words, "we don't fix a problem that only happens periodically." Unacceptable! Drivers like my self depend on the backup camera. Like the airbag or seat belt, the back-up camera should be regarded as a safety device. If it fails, an OME should be required to fix the issue immediately. Yet Honda refuses to address the problem with my vehicle, and I doubt mine is the only car with this problem. Taking photos of this problem is hard because the crash is unpredictable and getting my phone out and snapping a picture is difficult and discouraged. Nevertheless, the two photos i've attached are of crashes when the vehicle is going forward. My concern, though, is loosing the backup camera when in reverse. Please help me redress this issue. Thank you!
The radio emits an uncontrollable extreme static. The radio volume, power, or any control will not stop the noise. The sound is so loud the car is not drivable. We removed the fuse to the amplifier and this fixed the uncontrolled static but the radio does not work. This is a huge safety issue as the driver is unable to hear any sirens, horns, or cars outside the vehicle. This issue needs to be addressed in a recall. This is not normal wear.

Back up camera fails to work and there is problem with transmission fluid seal leak at least 3 cars had same problem i m not how many owner had same issue with their cars
Radio/audio causing a loud static un bearable noise that won-??t turn off even when Turing the radio off an volume all the way down. My concern here is it-??s very hard to focus on driving on the road when this occurs since I-??m not able to hear anything around me or able to receive phone calls or emergency calls since it is basically impossible to do anything at all until i completely stop somewhere an shut the car completely off. I think not being able to hear traffic around me for example someone honking or a police car, fire truck, ambulance is a real big Hazard. I see a lot of people online that are having the same issue so that-??s why I-??m here reporting this. I think it def should be reviewed as a hazard safety concern this type of thing can potential cause more trouble on the road for those who suffer from the same issue an other individuals on the road. I have a video of this issue but I am not able to upload it here if I can email the video that would be great.
Computer failed. Dashboard lights keep going on and off. Checked by a mechanic and confirmed Battery sensor failure. It-??s dangerous to drive the car when dashboard lights are on because it doesn-??t respond normally to speed paddle or brakes and engine shuts down suddenly.
On a daily or several days/wk basis, either 1) the "Navigation Screen" will freeze in displaying the map the driver is using OR 2) both the "Audio/Information Screen" & the "Navigation Screen" will go blank (displaying only a solid black screen). In problem #1, the driver is distracted & disrupted from continually viewing the road to first confirm whether the map image is frozen as suspected (e.g., pressing buttons). In both Problems #1 & #2, the driver is further distracted & disrupted from continually viewing the road in order to try to reset the system (e.g., pressing buttons, disconnecting & reconnecting a smartphone). Finally, in both Problems #1 & #2, if a soft reset is not successful, in order to regain navigational functionality, the driver must either a) if at a stop sign/light or b) pull off the roadway to (e.g., on to a shoulder) turn the vehicle off & on again to trigger a hard reset.
I bought my car, used, in November of 2018 and had to have the battery replaced the following month. That battery stopped working and had to be replaced April of 2020. The same battery is now leaking and needs to be replaced again, now. When I checked the recall list for the 2016 Accord, it shows the batteries are on there; however, when I use the VIN, reports shows it is good. Please review.
The contact owns a 2016 Honda Accord. The contact stated that for the past three months at start-up there was a grinding sound coming from the starter. The contact stated that occasionally the vehicle would not start or needed several attempts before the vehicle started. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The mechanic confirmed a failure with the starter and linked the failure to TSB: 16-002. The contact was concerned that he would be far away from his residence and not able to start the vehicle. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle has not been repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 78,000.
My 2016 Honda Accord is failing start. I started my car is and it is making grinding noise and want start. I had this problem before and had to replace the starter in 2019. I have not warning on my dashboard when trying to start my car. I just want crank, replacing a starter every 2 years is unacceptable. I research this issue and this is an issue for ignition switch thousand of people is having the same issue.
2016 Honda Accord with about 40,000 miles. The instrument panel or display panel often locks after having iPhone connected and using AirPlay. Have to disconnect iPhone and at times even turn off car to reset the instrument panel display. This is a hassle and if using maps can be inconvenient while driving.
Air coming through vents is very low even if set a max air flow. I have a 2016 Honda Accord with 40,000 miles. For some time we noticed that air conditioner does not flow much air. It seems that ac blower is just too weak. My old 2003 Corolla has much more ac blower power. Something is wrong. I change the AC filter as needed and with frequency. Air is cold just not enough air coming through vents.
Infotainment system freezing freezes or goes blank while using iphone to navigate. Occurs with both google and apple maps. Resolving often requires waiting 10 plus minutes or turning car off and restarting it.
If the vehicle is not started and driven at least every second day. A no start condition results. Battery is new, the second one from Honda dealer. Crank/starter speed very lethargic, all conditions, remote start included. Purchased an after market start booster to resolve dead battery issue. Vehicle no longer under warranty.
