When you let off the gas pedal and then reapply the car will not respond. You have to keep pressing and releasing the gas pedal til the car respond. It does it when leaving from a stop in traffic and if you are driving down the street.
Lost power while driving on hwy at 65mph. All lights came on and speed dropped instantly to 30mph. Wouldn't go over 50mph after letting the car sit for an hour. Mileage was at 37100. Happened again two months later. This time while driving 45mph the car stopped going and all lights came on. Wouldn't drive over 20mph. Picked up by tow truck and taken to Honda service department. Both times taken to Honda they said they found absolutely nothing wrong with the car even tho all the lights were lit up on dash. This is very dangerous and can result in crash.

Engine head keeps leaking oil. Took it to the dealer 3 times but they would just tighten the head bolts and put a seal around it that would last about 500 miles before it starts leaking again. This problem started at 4K miles.
Car suddenly wont start. Break petal is stuck, dash lights click and wont start. Acts like its the battery but doesn't allow jump. Car has less that 46,000 miles and is 2 yrs old. Current recall out for fuel issues, but the dealer is sure thats not the cause. Contact at the dealer was not helpful at all and kinda rude. Rushed me off the phone when I was asking questions. Very upset

My 2017 Honda Accord coupe has just above 8000 miles on it and almost everyday will stall if I try to accelerate and also try to switch lanes from time to time. There have been so many times where the car will slow down drastically on the road and it is becoming very dangerous. I took it to the service station and since they couldn't find a code when scanning, they told me nothing was wrong and sent me on my way. The car hasn't stopped stalling and it looks like my model has a recall announced for it but it's for a V6 engine and not a V4 which is what I drive. The picture below shows all the lights that turn on from my dashboard when the car stalls.
Passenger side day time running light stopped working approx 50K miles went to bigisland Honda the parts department representative quoted me $2K $1500 for the light and $500 to install than soon after idler tensioner started making a weird grinding noise went online to research these 2 problems and both are very common problems with these model Honda Accord other than these problems this is a great car but I don't know if I'll ever buy a Honda Accord again basically left stranded with no help from the bigisland Honda the dealership I bought it from. They basically told me I'm sorry it's way out of the warranty mileage and there's nothing they can do. I googled to see how much people has the same issue it's literally thousands of people with Honda Accord. Honda should step up there game or there going to loose a lot of customers over the next upcoming years. Honda of America please put a recall and fix these issues before it turns into a epidemic thanks.
Battery died after less than 2 years of use. Needed to replace. No electrical use of the vehicle, pep boys says its a common issue with new Honda. Needed to tow car and dangerously turned off in the middle of the street when the battery died.
The car caught on fire by itself, a car only with 13,000 miles and 1 year of usage that means almost brand new car. I drove 9 miles aprox. From home to my work location. When I arrive and park the car before going upstairs, I saw the car blowing unusual smoke from the engine compartment, I opened the hood and I saw the fire was coming between the engine and the radiator. I call the 911 and when they arrived they tried to use a fire extinguisher but the fire started getting out of control, forcing them to use the water hose to stop the fire. Honda is not taking care of this safety concern and no body knows what happened
I have started noticing engine acceleration lag, a tire/wheel noise from driver front/rear side. The noise was very noticeable since it felt like the tire/wheel was rubbing against each other somewhere. The noise can be heard driving at the speed of 15-30mph having the window roll down. June 4th, 2018 made a appointment with purchasing dealership yonkers Honda to have the car checked. However they could not duplicate the issue, so I test drove with mechanic and proved my case. After hearing the noise, they kept the car to fix the issue and when I went to pick up the car the noise was back again. Since they could not fix the issue, they labeled it as "normal" and cannot duplicate the noise despite showing it to them after multiple visit. I opened a case with american Honda and they could not get yonkers Honda to fix the issue or get the manager to call me to explain what happened. Instead, amh advised me to try another dealership which I did, "new rochelle Honda" however they were no help whatsoever. They did not even want to work on the car despite their mechanic hearing the noise. The director informed the manager that there is no problem with the car and fed Honda lies about director ever contacting me or test driving with me. I called Honda again, and they did not help me instead told me to go to another dealership. I am on my third dealership, working with bronx Honda about the same issue since June 4th, 2018 and still no fix...now I am experiencing acceleration lag, brake rotors issues, wheel vibration, vibration while braking from high speed even though bronx Honda resurfaced the brake rotors instead of replacing them with new one.
