On 4 separate occasions, the first on December 22, 2022, my Accord began losing power and acceleration while driving on the highway. The engine light began flashing but never came on steadily, and no message displayed. On a couple of occasions it was raining a bit, and at other times the weather was dry. Each time, I pulled the car over to the side of the road; before turning off the engine, I noticed the engine was loud and the car was shaking a bit. After a minute, I turned the car on and it operated normally, with no flashing engine light. I brought the car to a local Honda dealership after the first incident, but they were unable to locate any codes to make a repair. I am reluctant to use the car in any congested highway area such as New York or Boston (both I visit regularly to see family) because of losing power on a busy highway, so it is a safety issue that affects the use of my car, which is less than two years old with approximately 33,000 miles of use. After 3 more incidents, I brought the car back to the dealership today (and it happened on the way to the dealership, as well). I told the dealer that I found a reference on the internet to a Honda repair bulletin, A21-O52, that described the exact problem my car is experiencing. The dealership just told me that the repair bulletin does not apply to my car as my car is a Hybrid. They want to keep the car to keep driving it and replicate the problem.

While driving in heavy rain on interstate, vehicle experienced lack of power and flashing check engine light. Driver was unable to maintain speed. Pulled off at next exit and turned off. Roadside assistance was contacted immediately after pulling off. Vehicle restarted and ran normally after allowing it to remain off for approximately 1.5 hr. Roadside assistance was cancelled. Continued trip without further incident.
