When I went to apply the brakes to stop at an intersection, the brake pedal was hard and brakes did not work at all. If it is under 20 degrees outside, this happens when the car is first driven after sitting for awhile. I am now looking at replacing the brake booster and check valve. This is a major safety concern because I do not know if my car will stop or not when I am driving. After doing some research, honda had recalled previous years models for this same issue, but there is not a recall for this particular model year. Several people in forums are complaining of the same issues. Perhaps yet another class action lawsuit is in order for.

Honda accord 2010 ex 4-cyl manual transmission - vehicle id is [xxx] I went to put the car in neutral as I approached a stop light. It had felt 'odd' leaving the previous light. The clutch pedal went to the floor and stayed there. The gearbox locked up so I couldn't shift into any gear. The motor was still running normally. A motorcycle cop came to help me - it was in heavy traffic - and he couldn't get the clutch or gears to work. I turned it off. After about five minutes, I looked at the clutch pedal. A gentle tug and it came back up. I restarted the car and was able to drive it home, a couple more miles, without further problems. The car had 900 miles on the odometer. I consulted an online honda technician and received this response: "the problem is the clutch master cylinder . There are issues with the rods getting stuck . The dealer will need to replace the clutch master and bleed the system to fix this issue. Have done a few so far . No bulletin or recall yet." I took the car to the dealer (motorcars honda cleveland). They confirmed this diagnosis and replaced the clutch master cylinder. The service rep also said their cleveland heights service department had also seen the same problem a number of times.
