When driving down a state highway in town, about 40-45mph, with no cars or objects in front of me and within the lanes - aka nothing unusual - my dash lit up with the orange "BRAKE!" warning and then slammed on my brakes. I had no idea at the time that my vehicle could even do that, as I'd had it at least three years and, while I'd had false warnings because of a line on the road or something, it had never done that. Luckily, there were not cars close behind me, because it was disorienting and took a moment to realize what was happening and adjust my driving to correct it. It was incredibly concerning, and I searched for what feature would even do that and how I could turn it off. I've told many people about it since, as it's the kind of thing that makes using "safety features" of a vehicle untrustworthy, let alone what could've happened had there been cars behind me at that moment.

Hello- I am writing in regards to my 2019 Honda Accord Sport. All the lights on the dashboard randomly comes on . I’ve had the car checked out at the dealership and they don’t seem to know why the light is on besides maybe the computer needs to be reset . There are hundreds of other Honda owners with the same issue. I would like to know what is Honda’s resolution to this issue that’s lot of customers are having . Thank you
Subject: Vehicle Safety Defect Report – Brake Failure and Collision Mitigation System Malfunction To the federal safety agency, I am filing a safety defect complaint regarding a Honda vehicle that experienced sudden brake failure and a suspected Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) malfunction, resulting in a crash on [date]. Incident Summary: • Brakes suddenly stopped responding • CMBS appeared to activate or interfere with braking • No obstacles or hazards present • Loss of control and collision • Vehicle purchased from Karplus Warehouse (salvage title) • Dealer did not disclose braking or safety system issues This malfunction created a dangerous safety hazard. I request that the federal safety agency document this incident and evaluate whether similar complaints ---
My 2019 accord gets stiff at speeds over 25-30mph and resists driver input, so much that you tend to over-compensate and make constant steering corrections every second so you don't crash. The car does not track straight at any speed, and does the same when the Lane Keeping Assist (LKA) is off or on. When LKA is active the car will not go straight on a straight smooth road. The car wanders dangerously from the right to left line markers and often rides on the markers bringing you very close to other cars and then jerks the car back to the opposite side of the lane and continues to do the same back and forth like a drunk person is driving the car. Also the Driver Input Required amber light comes frequently on a straight road with highly visible lane markers. It is extremely tiresome to drive the car and try to keep it in its lane, even when I disable all the "driver-assistance" features. This is because the steering has a mind of its own and stiffens up. It resists the slightest driver input so you have to put more strength into it to make it go where you want to, but once the steering gives up fighting you and lets you do it, it results in overcompensating and constant steering corrections by the drive left-right, left-right, just going down in a straight smooth freshly paved road. It’s been over a year and the dealer has yet to detect anything wrong, they tell me my vehicle drives perfect, honda dealer after dealer.
All my warning lights are on. Drives fine but I can’t use cruise control or any safety features. Replaced the module but they said I need it synced with my vin???
The contact owns a 2019 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle independently decelerated, and the brakes independently activated while the accelerator pedal was depressed. The BRAKE warning light was illuminated. The local dealer was contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired due to the costs. Upon further investigation, the contact related the failure to the federal safety agency Action Number: EA24002 (Forward Collision Avoidance). The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 127,000.
The vehicle suddenly braked on its own without any obstruction, causing a violent stop and injury. I took it to the nearest dealership to check for a recall. They said there wasn't a recall for this VIN, although online searches show this as a known defect for 2018-2020 Honda Accord Collision Mitigation System.
Multiple warning lights on dashboard. Vehicle runs perfectly fine with brand new battery and spark plugs but still has 9 random warning lights coming on.
All light come on brake system, ACC, road migration, collision migration, hill start assist problem, Vehicle stability system, electrical power steering, and it will not go when at a light. Almost causing a car accident.
Two issues, the car will just stop on the freeway, Honda said noting is wrong with it, this occurred four times. also the headlights stopped working after 50k miles on it, they told me to replace the entire unit. at 800. 00 Each just like the 2016-2017 Honda Daytime headlight issue now the 2019 headlights are having issues.
Inadvertent Automatic Emergency Braking Collision Mitigation Braking System automatically activated even there is no obstruction while driving.
There is loss of power when accelerating and all the warning lights are staying on when the car starts which is disengaging all of the advanced driver assistant systems.
While driving my 2019 Honda Accord, after about five minutes on the road, multiple warning lights suddenly appeared on the dashboard. The emission system, brake system, power steering, TPMS, ACC, hill start assist, collision mitigation, and vehicle stability assist warnings all came on at the same time. The alerts caused concern for safety, as several major systems such as steering assist, braking, and driver-assist features appeared to malfunction simultaneously. The issue seems related to an electrical or charging system failure (such as the alternator or battery), since all of these systems rely on stable voltage to operate correctly. The incident occurred without warning and could have resulted in loss of steering assist or engine power while driving
In 2 instances the car put on brakes for no reason. Nothing was in front of car. I was traveling roughly 70 mph and car slowed down and brake indicator came on, also going 75 with cruise control on and the system that brakes the car slowed the car down and then just quit working. Warning lights came on saying system failure but after car was turned off then turned back on there were no warnings.
I was traveling on a two lane road at approximately 40 mph when the automatic braking engaged for no reason, bringing the car to almost a complete stop. There were no other cars from either direction.
Wednesday 10/01/25 I was driving to work on the highway with cruise control on, it was a empty road with nothing in front or behind me, my steering wheel got yanked out of my hands and turned all the way to the right towards the guard rail, then the steering wheel got yanked all the way to the left automatically, I did a 180 degree spin and crash my 2019 Honda Accord Touring 2.0L. I believe the Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) was at fault as well as the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS). The vehicle got towed off the highway directly to a local body shop. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. Mine and others safety was put at risk because the vehicle decided to crash itself potentially killing me or other people. The vehicle just arrived at the body shop and no diagnosis has been done yet. The vehicle is not drivable so the problem has not been reproduced. Vehicle has not been inspected and looked into yet, I am waiting for the body man to do a deep dive into it or I am planning on bringing it back to the dealership. There was no warning lamps present.
With my 2019 Honda accords I have had this car going on 4 yrs and now all my dashboard lights are on .. and stay on . Seltbelt lights , lane lights , brake, check engine light and light u can think of it's on in this car and it's not just my car
My son was driving home from work when car suddenly went into limp mode with check engine light and all other safety light came on the dash. Driving around 50mph and my son nearly collided with multiple cars as the became hard to steer and brakes unreliable. Luckily no one was hurt this time. Car has 83k miles. was taken to the dealer and diagnostics run and provided with a $5000. repair to replace the head gasket due to coolant leaking into cylinder #3 causing misfires. I have reached out to Honda of America with the issue.
I feel like my car should be under recall it’s so many other who experiencing the same thing. all of my lights are on, on the dash. Check engine light down to my cruise control not working. as I drive it’s stalling and jerking. I went to the dealership to have my spark plugs and my fuel injectors replace and it started back doing the same thing. Spent thousands just to be going through the same exact thing.
During highway driving the collision system starts to brake without any risk or objects in view. Happen twice within 10 minutes
Driving along at approximately 41 mph, CMBS unexpectedly activated for no apparent reason. There was no object in road to potentially collide with. Warning system barely activated before CMBS engaged braking very hard. Vehicle went from 41 mph to 31 mph in 2 seconds as recorded on dash cam. This is the 2nd occurrence in the same approximate location, both for no apparent reason & with no object in road ahead. Had an another car been following closely, this would have caused injury.
All WARNING lights have turned on my dash. Ive done research and this is happening a lot of people that own 2018-2020 honda accord 1.5L.
I bought this 2019 Honda Accord on June 30th from a company called Greenville Motor Company. July 1st, I took the car to the Honda dealership to get a diagnostic to make sure everything was in good shape. The technician I spoke with did notice the car & stated that it had a problem with the previous owner which was the Injectors. She told me that the light may not come on now but it may come on in the future. After I left the Honda dealership, I went to Greenville Motor Company & showed them the diagnosis I had done at Honda. He said he didn't see anything wrong. On July 2nd, all of my dashboard lights came on. Took it back to Greenville Motor Company, the tech there said I could pick it up July 3rd & drive it over the weekend. (basically he reset the lights so they wouldn't come on for a certain period of time).Within this time period I took it back to the Honda dealer & they told me that I also needed a turbo, they gave me the printout for that as well. Took it to Greenville Motor Company, they agreed that I did. need a turbo. Manager says he ordered turbo. I I don't remember the date I took it back but on July 12th, my dash lights came on again. I took it back to Greenville Motor Company July 14th, July 18th Greenville Motor Company called & said something on top of the turbo wasn't screwed on thats what was triggering the turbo code to show, so he never put on the turbo that he ordered I had it 2 hours & my dash lights came on again.
All warning lights turn on on the dash board. I replaced the battery, airbag module, and ABS module and I'm still having the same issue
Lights go crazy in dashboard apparently due to constan cylinder misfires, spark plugs changed, same issue, fuel injectors and coils changed, same happened keep it getting fix and the problem persist, making the car dangerous to drive, since it loses power since the car it’s not able to respond and work as it should be Having engine, steering and brake issues, problem has been confirmed by dealer. It hasn’t been inspected by manufacturer. The lost of power and acceleration it’s probably one of the symptoms before all the light go on again. It’s been several times that this happens and I know for a fact that many people are experiencing this issues due to turbo or head gasket failure. Might get that inspected soon.
Every light on my dashboard came on at once. I took it to a Honda dealership for a diagnostic check and they said it was my turbo but every light is still on.
If you are having this problem where every warning indicator is illuminated, codes scanned but no clear solutions to the “Christmas Tree dash board This is an ongoing issue with the 10th generation and there is no definitive “fix” recognized by Honda. Sometimes it is the battery, the alternator, the head gasket, the ECM, injectors….the list goes on and on. Sometimes the repair fixes the issue, but based on research, the issue typically comes back shortly after the service department throws another part at the problem.
THE VEHICLE HAS AN EMISSION SYSTEM ERROR ALONG WITH ALL OTHER ERRORS, CAR ALSO HESITATES TO ACCELERATE. Yes it is dangerous A failing turbocharger can result in a noticeable decrease in engine power, especially at higher speeds. DIAGNOSTIC : Confirmed by dealership. The car was looked at the dealership mechanics nothing happened to where I need any others. It’s just been lagging getting up into speed etc. It popped up a month ago the emission light and went away. Came back two days ago which today is 6/20. Engine System Problem Tire Pressure Monitor System Electric Power Steering Problem CMBS Problem Adaptive Cruise Control Problem CMBS Problem All lights flashes on screen.
