Subject of Complaint: Sudden, simultaneous failure of critical safety and driver assist systems originating from an electronic sensor/control module failure inside the electronic power steering (EPS) gearbox. Description of Safety Hazard and Dashboard Indicators: While operating the vehicle, the Driver Information Interface (DII) suddenly illuminated with multiple critical safety faults simultaneously. The primary indicator was the amber Electric Power Steering (EPS) System Problem warning light (steering wheel icon with an exclamation point). Due to the electronic architecture of the vehicle, the loss of reliable data from the steering gearbox caused a cascading failure across the Honda Sensing safety suite. The dashboard displayed a sequence of distinct system errors, explicitly disabling: Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) Problem Road Departure Mitigation System Problem Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC) Problem Safety Risk to Occupants: The unexpected failure of the EPS system immediately compromised the vehicle's handling characteristics, significantly increasing the steering effort required to control the vehicle. Furthermore, the simultaneous and total disabling of the Lane Keeping Assist, Road Departure Mitigation, and Adaptive Cruise Control systems unexpectedly stripped away active crash-avoidance features. This sudden degradation of vehicle control and driver-assist capabilities creates an immediate, severe collision hazard on public roadways.

Lane keeping assist jerks the wheel by model year
What owners say
When driving on highway the car displayed multiple warning messages on dashboard including electronic power system light, lane keeping assist system problem, TPMS system problem, etc. Mileage was 22380miles. I bought the car May 2026. I drove it for around 1000miles. The next day the warnings disapeared.
In Feb. 2026, I had a software recall service performed on my Honda Accord. Later that same day, a persistent error message appeared on my dash: Software Update Not Available See Dealer. I contacted the dealer and they said sometimes that error message clears on its own and to wait and see. A few days later as I was leaving work, I turned my car on, put it in reverse and realized I had no propulsion or power steering. I put the car back in park and restarted it and drove it straight to the dealer where it sat for about three weeks as they tried to clear the error message. They were not able to reproduce the issue I reported with my car being on but without power. I picked up the car on 3/16/26. After leaving the dealership, it began sputtering and lurching. I could see on the powertrain display that the car was not communicating well between the engine and hybrid battery. I pulled into a parking lot and put the car in park and it began functioning normally. I called the dealer and they said to bring it back if that happened again. It has not. Tonight, I was pulling up to a red light when my car suddenly slammed on the brakes and displayed Lane Departure Mitigation Off. I attempted to restore that safety feature and realized my car had lost power. It did restore power and I was able to drive home, but I am terrified of my car since it engaged the braking system for no reason and disabled a safety feature plus losing power. During my car's time in the service department, it got a new CAN gateway module and telematics unit along with repeated attempts to make the software update glitch free to eliminate the persistent warning messages that had been displaying. Honda tech support was involved, and I have contacted Honda corporate with my concerns about the safety of my car but am waiting for a response. My perspective is the software recall update ruined my perfectly good car and I am worried I am going to lose power and get injured or worse.
Purchased new. Delivery date August 13, 2024 I've experienced an ongoing issue with the electronics since owning car. First issue was ECM failed. Currently having problems with the Lane Keeping Assist (LKAS). The car is alerting me that I'm not staying within my lane which isn't correct, the car then attempts to correct. The car attempts to correct, shows a lane departure warning but won't give any audible alerts as previous. During the time car alerts of road departure it clearly shows the car diagram within the road diagram. I have pictures taken showing such.
Purchased New Delivery date: August 13, 2024 This is an ongoing issue, car indicates radar needs cleaning. Each time I pull off road to check radar no such cleaning is needed, it's clean. Once the car indicates that the radar needs cleaning I loose multiple functions, cruise control, lane assist etc. Attached picture
The Instrument Panel Display combined with the Front Sensor Camera failed. This risked my live as well as others lives on the road due to the ill ability to predict when it will fail as well as the difficulty to control the sporadic behavior. The Lane Keep assist system would also overcorrect and have very strong and hard to control corrections with the wheel. The Instrument panel would also turn off mid drive and I would not be able to see my speedometer. It has been seen by multiple diffferent Honda Service Centers and no one can figure out the issue. Camera issues have been recalled on previous models.
Lane Assist Issues. During the time inwhiche I've had the Honda Lane Assist on I've experienced the car wanting to abruptly change direction, system acted as if it was trying to avoid a collision or navigate a non existing turn object in path. I'm also experiencing issues with the TSR system - Honda Traffic Sign Recognition (TSR). This system will show a stop sign, yield sign when there isn't any sign of any type around. I'm also experiencing time when it's indicates I'm traveling in a wrong way direction as a sign in instrument panel will appear showing a red sign with a black mark across which indicates a do not enter. This could cause an accident if happening to a driver in a unfamiliar area as they might come to an ubrupt stop thinking their going in a wrong direction or going to run a stop sign. Note: I keep my car extremely clean, taking care to clean windshield a area where radar is placed on front grill.
