Every single dash warning light is showing up on my car and I've had it looked at and claimed to be fixed but it has popped back up and I'm unaware of the problem and it's been this way since I've bought my car and I've read online a few others have had this problem
2019 Honda Accord electrical complaints
Page 4 of 5: complaints 71 to 100 of 109, newest first, as owners wrote them.
All of the warning lights are on. The Adaptive Cruise Control, E parking brake, Tire pressure monitor, Brake System Performance, Vehicle Stability Assist, Electric power steering lights are all currently on. Brakes did not engage properly when braking. I had to swerve out of the way to avoid a collision.
Radio fails to start when turn the vehicle on. If the radio does start it will shut off while driving. When this happens the forward collision alert fails.
On 01-31-2023 at 5pm my Accord (2019, 27k miles) experienced a limp mode condition on the Highway forcing me to pull over onto the shoulder and restart the car. I was traveling for 4+ hours in rain / misting rain on the way to North Carolina for a business trip. I went to pass a slow moving vehicle, and the car’s check engine light began to flash 2 seconds after I hit the accelerator. The car’s check engine light began to flash and the car would not exceed 40mph, indicating it had entered a limp mode condition. This forced me to pull over onto the shoulder. After a restart, the car performed as normal with no CEL. I took the car to Advance Auto parts to see if the ECU captured any codes - 3 “pending” codes were stored - P0300 random misfire, P0301 Cylinder 1 misfire, P0304 Cylinder 4 misfire. I took the car to Shockley Honda in Frederick MD on 02/06/2023 and the pending codes had cleared / a diagnosis of possible traction control engagement was given - I am 100% certain this was the check engine light / limp mode, and that this is an incorrect diagnosis. Honda has a TSB for this exact issue: https://www.driveaccord.net/attachments/a21-052-pdf.531063/ Additionally I have dash camera footage to collaborate my account of events, including the event occurring; pulling over on the side of the road; and the trip to advance auto, where you can hear me reading the codes Car entering limp mode on highway: https://youtu.be/1E9RKIH-MnM Drive to advance auto: https://youtu.be/esqrADVXfsA Reading codes: https://youtu.be/5fN10jBiChw Multiple other owners have experienced similar issues in similar weather conditions in their 2.0T Accords https://www.driveaccord.net/threads/check-engine-light-cel-in-the-rain-went-into-limp-mode.502130/page-11 This incident lead to unsafe vehicle operation through a loss of power scenario in adverse weather. Honda customer service and the dealer have so far failed to address the issue in the TSB per my insistence.
As I was driving down the interstate, it had been raining hard, but the speed had increased and we were going around 70-75, speed limit 70. I was in the far left lane when the lane all of a sudden was ending. I had to work my way over fast, so i kicked it to move over to the next lane, and when i did, I lost ALL power in the vehicle. I was terrified !! I did have enough speed to get over one lane but there was a lot of traffic and i had to get over another one to stop on the shoulder. It was close but we did get over and stop without causing an accident. If I had of hit someone or someone hit me, it would have been a multi car accident with all the traffic and probably someone being killed, including my husband and I. This needs to be investigate before someone is killed .
My car was initially at Performance Honda due to engine failure on June 24, 2022. They called on July 20, 2022 and confirmed that my car engine was repaired and I picked it up on July 20, 2022. Then on July 23, 2022, I incurred the same engine failures as noted by the warning and error lights on my display panel. The car started slowing down while I was on the expressway creating a safety hazard but I was able to drive it to Performance Honda. The manager explained that the car needed a turbo and they had to asked Honda to approve the purchase to install it into my car. I dont know if the turbo is new or used or even under warranty but Performance Honda contacted me on August 8 and said again the engine was repaired. I've read where there are other owners experiencing similar issues. My car was still within warranty of my purchase date July 17, 2019 and the repairs were made under the warranty but I still incurred rental car expenses that have not been reimbursed to date.
When I was driving during a storm on June 24, 2022, the numerous warning readings flashed on my dashboard. My car begin to slow down until it completely stalled. I was able to restart the car and drive it off the main road and it stalled again. AAA tolled my car to Performance Honda. I have a 2019 Honda Accord EX purchased July 17, 2019 with 35014 miles. Honda explained that the engine had lost oil and the engine was completely inoperable.
Door lock actuator of 1 door out of 4 is gets stuck between open and close positions (brainfart) mode and won't respond to center lock/unlock. It won't unlock with the fob from outside or respond to door unlock button from inside. If I am inside the car, I have to brush my hand against the physical lock latch simultaneously with pressing the unlock switch. I am afraid in case of an accident, the door may not open as normal. Apparently this is a common problem as I have searched many HONDA online forums.
Brake light warning comes and with nothing in front or near me and on occasion it engages the brakes. Also the lane keep assist also goes off when I’m in the middle of a lane and going straight. I have had various electrical problems like this since week one of getting the car, and the dealer or Honda can never explain any of this
Tachometer issues.
This vehicle has a safety issue when it comes to snow on the ground and driving on a hill/incline. I was driving my vehicle through snow in the Ohio/WV region and when I tried to drive up a hill with snow on the ground the vehicle stopped. The vehicle would not accelerate and it seemed the engine just shut off. So I put the car in neutral and pushed the gas and I was correct the engine had no RPMs. This caused a huge safety issue to myself and the people driving near me. As I had ZERO control over the vehicle on an incline. The cars coming toward me and the ones behind me had ZERO issues with their vehicles going up this hillside. I tried three times to shut car off and back on so it would give me a few seconds of acceleration, allowing me to get up the hill a few more feet before shutting off again and possibly causing an accident. When I took it to my Honda dealer they stated computer showed no issues with the vehicle. And they have not heard of the engine shutting down or not having RPMs with snow on the ground. They recommended that I have tracking control off next time allowing me full control vs. the computer of the car however, I DID have it off. Once they heard that statement they informed me I have no other options. Honda did tell me when driving in snow other messages can go off and the car is still SAFE to drive. Which it needs to be as this area has tons of snow. However, that is not the case if the car just shuts off. Prior to the issue, the car kept beeping non stop with warning of break system & adaptive cruise control. My sensors were wiped off prior to the car shutting off. Yet again you can't keep a sensor spotless driving on a highway with snow. Two of the warning lights that showed on my dashboard were not listed in the manual. I am now afraid to drive my vehicle with any snow coming down. I have been a Honda owner since the 90's and I no longer trust this brand.
Upon accelerating on a highway, the malfunction indicator light came on and the car lost power. Without drive power it was very dangerous to maneuver to exit the freeway. The dealership recognized that this was due to issues with the intercooler and PGM-FI software for this vehicle and is spelled out in a technical service bulletin (Honda 21-052). However, even though the car is under the original warranty, they want to charge over $250 for the repair.
I had to boost my brothers vehicle because his battery was dead. Ever since then, the "charging system failure" notification has been on. Been on for about 1.5 years. Have not noticed any issues with the car but can't get the indicator to go off without bringing it to the Honda dealer and paying $150 for them to "check it."
Randomly my vehicles LKAS, ACC, blind spot monitoring will go out with a message to visit dealer. Also my exterior headlight controls won't work, turn signal stops working, backup camera stops working, rear trunk control, rear defroster. All steering wheel controls stop working as well. This can last for a couple days or as short as a few minutes. Every time I have taken it to the dealer the problem has 'fixed' itself and they can not find any errors. I have two videos I can share showing the errors. I did do a screen shot of the errors from the video and uploaded.

Rodent chewed the soy based wiring harness in the engine bay causing various fault codes: electric power steering system problem, brake system problem brake performance may be reduced, tire pressure monitor system problem. Dealer removed intake manifold, throttle body, remove fuel rail and #3 injector. Repair connector wiring harness to #3 injector. Replace engine wiring harness. After the harness is replaced. There are still warning lights that will not clear. Pull engine cover and lower bumper cover at front/note that there is rodent damage on two other wiring harnesses removed and replaced front bumper wiring harness and engine to body wiring harness. Went into system and cleared all codes. Rechecked and steering needed to be initialized through the vsa system. Drove the vehicles for a few days and all the problems re-occurred again. Honda has a rodent repellent tape part # 4019-2317. However, service advisor did not have any knowledge that the service department sold this tape. This proves honda is aware of the rodent issue of eating wiring harness.
I was on the freeway going about 75mph, when suddenly, my vehicle's cmbs system activated and slowed down speed to 20mph approx. Without having any vehicles in front or near me. Luckily, the driver behind me was not following close and was able to avoid a collision by switching lanes. I have taken my vehicle to the dealer twice, but no one can find or duplicate the problem. Moreover, a couple of weeks ago, when I was switching lanes, toward the right, the left warning light and beeping noise came on. So far, I have recorded nine incidents when the vehicle slowed down on its own, and four of those were on the freeway. I was forced to deactivated all "safety" sensors while I am driving to avoid anymore incidents or accidents.
While driving, car automatically applies brakes. Speed will slow all the way down, almost to a stop. Multiple warning lights dealing with brake system will randomly pop up, but also leave on their own just to reoccur later on. I just got this car a month ago with only 19,xxx miles.

On 3 different dates my 2019 honda accord sport had a power failure. I was going about 65 to 70 MPH when each incident occurred. First time was around 12/12/2021.the engine or power shut off, RPM dropped all at once for about a minute then came back to life. The second time was 12/28/2020 on the same interstate 81fgoing about the same speed. This time I pulled off the interstate the car was still shut off. I restarted the car it drove ok and no more trouble that day. On 01/12/2020 it happened again on I 81 interstate and again it shut off or lost all power for about a minute then it recovered itself.this was a very bad situation as I was in 3 lanes of traffic with tractor trailers all around going 70 MPH.I have reported this to miller honda, three times. They took it in and tried to see if it would shut off on them.it did not at that time. Service manager could find nothing at that time. I have called honda and registered a claim as I feel this new car with only 5,500 miles on it is not safe to drive.
The instrument panel cluster and radio on the vehicle go black while vehicle is in operation and then it restarts. The issue started in january 9, 2020 with 5,259 miles, the vehicle does this between 1200 to 1800 miles. The latest incident occurred on november 17, 2020 with 19,804 mile. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership five times to get the issue resolved. Dealership indicates that instrument cluster has been replaced and updates have been installed. I have been in contact with honda corporation as well. I have included pictures of the instrument cluster and also a work order and what update they did to the car.
When I went to start my car after parking it in a parking lot, my car wouldn't start. The control panel was flashing on and off and stated that there was an issue with the brake system and to see my dealer. I had the car tolled to honda. After inspecting the car, they told me there was a defective cell in the battery and they replaced the battery. I purchased my car brand new last year in 2019 yet this defective battery caused me to be stranded, which I don't expect to happen with an essentially new car.
I have tried contacting honda and going to the dealership multiple times to get this taken care of but everything is perfect they say. Just yesterday the car hit the break on it's own when the car on the other side was clearly on the other lane the car made a horrible sudden stop that caused bruising to my neck and also my passenger got hurt with everything that flung from the backseat he said the tug was too much . We thought someone had hit me . This isn't the first time the car has done this I feel I get constant tire pops because of this car veers me off into a lane that isn't even there. I have witnesses that say I have a lemon car I always say no but this last incident was too much for me . Also the charger port not USB has not worked since day one another thing they said was working again nothing . I went back and they said I had no warranties . I have called honda trying to get to the bottom of this and going to the dealer they said u signed so take care of it . At this point I am in the process of purchasing a new vehicle cash and I am not even 1% intersd in keeping this car . If I have to return voluntarily I will have to . I have been patient but it's absolutely ridiculous that I was put into this vehicle being a supposedly upgrade ? From my 2017 honda coupe v6 . This car needs a recall on lane departure , sensors , electrical it is not a car I feel safe in . I do not trust to let it drive on it's own and for good reason . What am I paying for then ? I would have crashed into a car by now if I trusted it . I have proof of the three tires I have had to get in the past theee months and I don't drive much at all 9k miles in a whole year . Pics on bottom show how the damage comes from the sides due to the car going straight then making sudden turns that hit curbs . The sensors seem to be getting worse instead of better .
Back in july 4, 2020, the digital part of my instrument panel, heads up display and my infotainment system crashed while I was driving. It took approximately 2 mins to come back on. Today, july 14,2020, the audio, phone and navigation on my instrument panel weren't showing up when I turned on my car. Also my voice assist doesn't work anymore as well as the navigation on my heads up display. I tried calling my dealership to set an appointment but the earliest time they can give me is on the 24th of july.
On the highway going 75mph the collision mitigation beeped and locked up the brakes dropping my speed below 50mph before letting off. There was a car in the lane to the right of me on a straight section of the highway but was not moving into my lane. Luckily there was no one behind me.
"collision mitigation braking system problem. See your dealer." warning has appeared seven times in the 4,300 miles I have owned the car. When the system errors the emergency braking does not function, the adaptive cruise control does not function, and even the traditional cruise control will not set. Turning car off and one does reset the issue but it keeps appearing at random times when I drive the car. I have taken the car to dealer multiple times they tell me they cannot do anything unless the warning light is on when they have the vehicle. This issue has been going on since I purchased the car brand new in november 2019.
I purchased a brand new honda accord 2019 sport in black in march 2019. Within 3 months I noticed in may these white spots show up. I immediately had 3 detailers look at the spots and they said it has something to do with the paint job. I called honda and started a claim, they told me to take the car to the dealership I purchased it from and have them to review it, they were rude and stated that it was my fault and that I had to put something acidic on it or it was acidic rain, or sap. I have not been under a tree nor put anything on my car to damage it, why would I want to do this to my own car, I brought up issues with the stereo system and the screen freezing and going black. They told me they would take my stereo out my car and put a refurbished system in my car that will have the upgrade already on the system and take mines and put it in someone else's car. Why is this happening and the car is only 1 year old. I found out the car was made the end of the year on a friday,I had videos and that still was not good enough. Now I'm looking at getting a paint job on a one year old car. I'm so disappointed I really like my car and for all this to happen in a year I really hate I bought this car.
When starting the vehicle, the digital (lcd screen) half of the gauge cluster may blank. As the tachometer in this vehicle is digital, the driver is unable to determine the RPM of the engine when stationary or in motion. When this problem surfaces, not even restarting the vehicle fixes the digital display. I have had 3 dealer appointments to fix this issue now. They have swapped out the gauge cluster and the problem persists. Additionally, I have identified other users via internet forums who have exchanged photos and videos with me of their vehicles exhibiting the same symptoms. Because the problem was not fixed with new hardware, and many other users experience it, I suspect it may be a software issue.
