2007 Honda Accord: engine stalls while driving

Filed Mar 5, 2025 · Electrical, Engine · AR

Electrical component malfunctioning Knock Sensor: code error: p0325 I noticed my check engine light had came on but wasn't on for long and had turned off on the dash. A few weeks later the check engine light reappeared and did not go back off. Upon this happening I noticed a major difference in my vehicle performance. The fuel consumption had significantly increased, I recognized these shake like vibrations when sitting in park or at a complete stop. A "knocking noise" I would hear coming from the engine, as well as rough idling almost as if there was a "stalling/hesitant" idling that sounded very off. Adding a very noticeable reduced power from the engine that was not there when the check engine light was not on. This has been a confirmed malfunction and should be replaced due to the importance the knock sensor provides to the engine of this vehicle. This was confirmed by an employee at a parts store, with there computer code reader. Upon request for inspection; I have open availability. Confirmed: March 4, 2025 The additional code provided also stated the catalytic converter is recommended to be replaced as well. Engine related systems that power the vehicle such as (catalyst pipes) Powertrain (previously recalled prior time frame) due to this being a numerously reported issue with many other owners of this same vehicle I own. There is a reoccurring issue that absolutely goes hand in hand with the performance and job of the also stated ongoing problems I'm facing. The knock sensor is a vital part to the powertrain system that helps optimize engine performance and protects it from harmful knocking by monitoring combustion irregularities. Potentially if these are current issues, and have caused any kind of damage, the damage alone effects as follows: -wiring issues, internal malfunction, physical damage , corrosion from exposure to engine fluids, internal short circuit, mechanical damage, faulty wiring,excessive vibrations, wear and tear from use.

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.

My 2007 honda accord had starting problem, and the engine stalled when I backed up sometimes,especially when in hot condition. It will eventually started after 3 or 4 time when I tried to started. The mechanic didn't find any problem with starter or battery, but I change it anyway for my safety; the problem still there. After researched on the internet, I changed the ignition witch; the problem solved. Honda should look into this problem to prevent accidents or deaths. My car engine shut off when I backed up a few times not in forward. Hopefully it will not happen in forward condition to any drivers.

My 2007 honda accord with 23,800 miles on it stalls and will not restart. This occurs after it has been driven lightly (a few local miles) in moderate temperature conditions. The ignition doesn't work; the battery loses its charge. The occurrences are unpredictable and leave me stranded wherever the incident occurs. Yesterday I was stranded one-hour from my home; called aaa for assistance. Aaa observed the battery needed recharging which solved the problem. However when taken to the dealer, the honda dealer claimed there was nothing wrong with the battery. This appears to be an electrical or fuel pump problem and appears to relate directly to the federal safety agency honda recalls for stalling and/or sudden stopping by recalled 2005-2006 models. The problem has not been corrected in my 2007 model. What iis my recourse? I haven't paid the car off yet and consider it to be a lemon.
