2015 Honda Accord: backup camera failure

Filed Nov 3, 2026 · Driver assistance · OR

A & J's Premier Auto, LLC 8555 SE 82nd Ave Portland, OR (971) 977-4303 Sold me a 2015 Honda EX-L Sedan 4D and all the windows were damaged (by a buffer possibly). I asked seller about the back window, above the trunk because it stood out, it looks like someone smoked in the car it is so bad. He replied "they just need to be washed". This affects safety of driving due to damaged windows and all the back up camera and components don't show a clear view, backing up "I can't make out a profile of a person, child, car, street and more. Please help me I do have pictures but I am technology deficient and can't upload them on my laptop, possibly I could on my phone. The weather really affects this safety hazard in all the positions from sun to being in the shade. I have two estimates to replace them. Thank you in advance for helping me, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I bought this certified vehicle 8/7/16 from dublin honda. This vehicle has a back up camera as a safety feature that is standard on all models. It has a defective backup camera. Back up camera is completely black when I back up. Honda should be responsable to replace defective cameras as they are not optional

Page 1 of 2 - I purchased my 2015 honda accord coupe ex-l with 2.4l CVT in june of 2015 new with maybe 5 miles on the odometer. I started having issues just months after purchasing the vehicle from brandon honda. The first incident occurred when pulling out of my office complex onto a busy highway when the car decided to just shut off causing the steering column to also seize while the odometer flashed "fcw failure" along with several other instrument panel lights on steady. Since that occurrence it seems as if I've had nothing but problems with the vehicle. I have on several occasions taken the vehicle in for repeated transmission/front end issues ' such as jerking between rpms, down 'shifting' for no reason causing rpms to just drop instead of holding when releasing my foot from the accelerator and while traveling at highway/interstate speeds of 55+ MPH, etc. The last 3 times included an additional issue where the gearshift would go from (d) drive and into (r) reverse while continuing to go in a forward motion with back up camera displaying on dash screen and (r) displaying on the odometer where the gear is displayed. The discovery of this safety hazard took place for the first time on an interstate while traveling 65+ MPH. The passenger at the time was reaching to grab their beverage from cup holder closest to the gear shifter when it was hit/tapped in the upward motion engaging the transmission into (r) reverse. It took me a minute to grasp what happened because while I'm looking forward into the direction I'm driving, I glance down at the odometer and notice (r) in place of the (d) where the current gear engaged would be indicated. Then out of the corner of my eye I notice the camera was on display but not realizing the camera was from the rear and could see the vehicles directly behind me on the interstate.

Approx. 4 months into my ownership of the vehicle, the backup camera stayed on, while the gear was in d (drive). Fortunately it was a short drive but it did concern me a little bit. The same issue happened again 2 months later. Pictures from both incidents are attached. On the 2nd instance the audio system said "turned off" while music was played loud and clear. I changed gears a few times while actually in the parking spot to see if it resets, but no luck. Incident has not been reported to the dealer yet. Was the computer on the car thinking that I was reversing the car while I was actually going forward? Anything wrong with the integration of transmission to electronics? What if the air bags do not deploy or early warning systems like forward collision or lane departure alerts do not work? I am continuing to drive the car but very concerned for family and my own safety.

Honda accord ex-l model equipped with lane watcher camera, this model comes with standard backup camera. In specific situation the camera never turns off creating high distraction. How to produce, turn the engine on ( from a complete stop) put car into reverse that runs the backup camera, immediately turn the right blinker on ( which usually turn the lane watcher camera on) this will confuse the system and resulting even though you put the car in drive mode the back camera never turns of. Its a software glitch. Have taken to the dealer. Technician from dealer spoke to the honda engineers, as advised by the honda engineer technician did same thing on a brand new accord 2015 and ruled it as an expected behavior. As a regular driver every one has habit of using blinker whether you are backing or not. Due to this I can't use the right blinker which has potential for accident and if use this you may end up driving car with back up camera keep rolling this is as dangerous as driving with video playing.
