Page 4 of 6: complaints 71 to 100 of 143, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Total loss of steering control which happened suddenly without warning. Traveling at 70 MPH on US 75 20 miles south of Naples Florida. Car suddenly steered hard right. Unable to control steering. Collided with guard rail, then car turned hard left, crossed 3 lanes of interstate and came to stop in grass median. Turned off engine, turned it back on, then car was able to steer normally. It was lucky that there were no cars around me at the time. Accident happened at 12:30 PM 10/11/21. There were 2 people in car. Passenger side airbags deployed. Neck soft tissue injury to one person. Travelers insurance unable to arrange towing in timely fashion, so I pried the right rear fender away from the tire, with a Jack handle. Drove slowly to Honda in Naples, FL. They sent me to Supreme Auto Collision in Naples, where the car is located now. They have asked Honda to inspect it.
Momentary loss of power steering while maneuvering out of parking space. Jerking, power steering goes in and out. It's happened a handful of times recently. No service lights. It's difficult for me to understand problem and if, at some point, it may occurs at higher speeds. I don't want to take car to dealer because I can't preproduce problem.
When I turned the car there were no alarming lights. I reversed out my driveway, but once in the street I realized I could not turn my steering wheel. This is when several of the dashboard lights illuminated. The following lights illuminated: engine, power steering, and ABS. I drove back into my drive way and placed the car in park. After about one minute in park the car turned off on its own. This put my safety at risk because this was at peak morning traffic and if I cannot steer to drive off after I reverse into traffic it can be severely dangerous. The vehicle has not been inspected. There were no precursors to this issue. It drove fine the day before.
The steering is tight on the sharper turns such as parking and reversing the car. The steering wheel seems to be jammed and requires force to turn it. I bought the vehicle from the Honda dealer in 2017 and it has only 40,000 miles on it.
Electric power steering keeps going out randomly. Sometimes for days sometimes I can restart it. Already had it into Honda they said they fixed a broken harness wire; tried charging me $900 for that I got it reduced to $600. Still having power steering issues. It some kind of electrical problem I think. Really dangerous to drive. Also not as random to have the fcw/ldw system go out.
Unknown
In November 2019 I was involved in and accident because the steering failed. The air bag also broke my neck. The person that I hit was also injured. No one ever inspected the car. My Insurance Company told my lender that it is still impounded.
Driving on expressway steering in my vehicle stop functioning, my car veered into a guard rail, almost causing myself and my passenger to lose our lives. We a suffering from severe pain and injuries.
After driving 180 miles on the highway at approximately 65-70 mph going downhill, the steering wheel started to shake violently side to side without any warning. We did not hit anything. It only lasted a few seconds. The car did not go out of the lane, but it was very frightening for myself, and my wife in the front passenger seat. The Honda Dealer checked the car and could not duplicate the problem, or find a Digital Trouble Code. We have never had any problem with this car prior to this instance.
I've been to Honda twice to get an alignment in 1 month, but for some reason it seems that the car continues to pull to the right. A few days ago I came across and article mentioning issues with Honda steering wheels, so I'm wondering if my car has the same issue.

Something wrong with the light even the tps light it's out of control. The steering gets rougher when slowing down or accelerating
The steering wheel jerks to the side making it difficult to steer.
I was making a left turn and my vehicle steering wheel lost power and my headlights start to blink rapidly . I almost collapsed into another vehicle that was parked on the side street
Steering wheel suddenly locked up on me as I was driving down a 2 lane city street. Conditions were dry, and was in a residential area, so speed limit was 35. Upon not being able to steer the car I ended up hitting a cable line wire, and was spun into the front yard of some townhomes. I ended up also hitting some large rocks and landing in between 2 large trees. Upon coming to a stop, I then realize that the impact had also caused my side airbags to deploy. Due to the loud crash one of the residents came out to see what had happened as I had landed outside of her homes window. I then contacted the local police department, who came and did a report and contact a local towing agency as the car was not drivable.
I have 4 warning lights on the dash brake,traction,steering and tire pressure warning lights. I was told that it has to due with a faulty ABS control module. The part has been sold out for some time. When I talked to the gentleman at the shop he told me that a lot people have been having a problem with this. The light are always on the car drives fine but I'm worried because it controls all of the safety associated with the car.

I am inquiring on my vehicle because I received another recall notice. When I put my car in drive, reverse, neutral, or park, sport I cannot see the light on the system. It constantly blinks like it's stuck. I have brought this up numerous times to different honda dealers. I am in the military and active duty so I use my vehicle to drive for work. It also has connection issues with my bluetooth when I try to connect my phone or need to take a phone call. This has been happening for a few years and I still have my documentation and receipts for all the hondas and service dealers that have preformed services on my car and it never gets fixed or resolved and dates back all the way from 2016-2020. There has been times when I turn my car on in the morning and the temperature and screens are all scrambled as well. I added all my receipts and I have spent over $6,007.23 to be exact on my car repairs and still no resolution for the electrical errors that keep happening. I do hope someone can resolve this issue and my safety concerns on my vehicle. Thank you for your time and I can be contacted below.

2014 honda accord had vsa, ABS, tire pressure and eps (steering) lights all come on at random and turn off at random. There is also a loss of steering accuracy at low speeds (lower than 5mph) on full lock. Abs would engage under braking at low speeds - at times when the ABS was not necessary to help the stopping of the vehicle, as well and engage and random times (10-25mph roughly). Honda dealership wants $1920 to fix the issue, and stated that they suggest not to drive the vehicle until the problem is fixed due to it being a safety issue. I feel this is indeed a safety issue for not only the driver, but others on the road. I am making this complaint so that both honda and the federal safety agency can understand that this is happening and can correct it and recall it. If the us government mandates (since sept 1, 2013) cars must have ABS and electronic stability control (honda's calls it vsa) than how is this okay to let hondas on the road with these failures. At the high price to fix this issue I doubt many honda owners are willing to afford it.
Driving on a country road, lights came on regarding steering and braking I drove for another 1/2-1 mile. Snowing conditions - lost steering and brakes and the car went off the road, hitting a sign for an upcoming curve
I was driving and my steering wheel locked up and it was hard to turn I was heading to work on the highway and the same problem happened when I was driving back home
Power to vehicle shuts off when steering the wheel while driving or stopped.
In motion, lost steering - power steering became disabled. Fcw failure warning lights came on the dash and I pulled over. Stopped the car. Restarted and the lights cleared. Ran okay going home. Started next day and fcw lights came on again. The following 3 days the car ran fine, no alarm lights. Issue seems intermittent and seems dangerous if you can lose steering underway. Searched internet, seems like a lot of fcw failures and this electronic module apparently controls braking, steering, idle, transmission, etc.
The eps,brake, and ABS lights came on when I started the car and would not go off. We took the car to our mechanic who after doing diagnostics told us we need to take our car to a honda dealer and not drive any more than we had to for safety reasons. The dealer determined it was the vsa modulator and cost $1788.78 to repair. Really disgusted with honda as I read online where there have been several other honda owners with the same problem yet there is still no recall on this problem!
I turned my car on one day and the light with the car and a squiggly line under started flashing then moments later the tire pressure light with the exclamation mark came on then weeks following the steering wheel light with the ! Came on. I took my car to the tire place to check and they said nothing is wrong and after months of going back almost weekly at this point one of the techs says he heard other honda accord's were having the same problem and that it may be a false reading. Then after some weeks my ABS and brake light came on. At first it was only in the afternoon or later these light would come on but now it's whenever. Sometimes they go off after I start driving but then they eventually come back on. I looked on google and it appears this has happened to others stating there was some kind of faulty box thingy that is used to communicate between the lights going off and the car. I don't have the money to get someone to do all of this and if there are others having the same problem did honda use a faulty part as others are saying? Please help
