2025 Honda Accord: lane keeping assist jerks the wheel

Filed Oct 29, 2026 · Driver assistance · CA

I was driving steadily on the freeway in slow moving traffic at 20-30 miles and had a lot of distance between me and the car in front. There was a sudden jolt and it appeared the vehicle was attempting to brake unexpectedly. If my foot had not been on the accelerator, I believe the vehicle could have come to a sudden, complete stop, potentially causing the vehicle behind me to rear end my car. Several months, before this incident, the Collision Mitigation Braking System and Lane Assist warning alerts would sound while I was driving on the freeway. This happened at two separate times. The sudden alarms are startling, and I cannot safely read the dashboard messages while driving. I am forced to slow down or pull over to check what is wrong, creating additional safety risks. I have a scheduled appointment with the Dealer this weekend due to the sudden braking however, I've brought this issue up with the service department in the past with the warning lights and they don't seem to have a definitive answer as to what is causing it. I have less than 20,000 miles on this vehicle.

In XXX, the driver assistance and safety systems on my 2025 Honda Accord SE began failing repeatedly. While driving, warning messages would appear for the collision mitigation braking system, lane keeping assistance, adaptive cruise control, and automatic high beams, and these systems would become unavailable. This happened multiple times over XXX and XXX . I took the vehicle to Hugh White Honda in [XXX], four to five times for this problem. The dealer replaced the forward-facing camera twice under warranty, but the warnings and system failures continued after each repair. The dealer was never able to identify or fix the underlying cause. I filed a complaint with American Honda on XXX (case XXX). Because the safety systems on a nearly new vehicle could not be repaired, I traded the vehicle in on XXX, with approximately 17,000 miles. No crash or injuries occurred, but the vehicle repeatedly lost the use of its collision avoidance and lane keeping safety systems in normal driving, and the manufacturer could not repair the defect.

Dashboard shows that there is a problem with the adaptive cruise control system, lane keeping assist system, road departure mitigation system, and automatic high beams. Message occurs intermittently, usually lasting a few seconds, and goes away. Can happen while driving or while parked. Usually occurs a handful or times per day. Seems to happen more frequently when engine bay is warmed up. This is a safety issue because it suddenly and unexpectedly disables the advanced driver assistance systems. For example, while driving on the highway, cruise control and lane keeping assistance will turn off suddenly, forcing the driver to intervene with all of these systems at once. This also has other implications, like automatic emergency braking not functioning correctly to help prevent an accident. Vehicle has been brought to various Honda dealers a total of three times. A case has been opened with American Honda Motor Co, but no solution to the problem has been found.

the steering on the '25 Hybrid Sport L is a little loose? Even small movements make the car drift, and it's hard to keep it straight. the feels like the car won’t track straight. The Lane keep assist does not work like the 10th gen. It’s like a ping pong bouncing off the lines. Who’s experiencing this as well.

The steering has been 'sticky' or 'notchy' since the vehicle was a few months old. With lane keeping off, driving in a straight line, when I perform a small steering input, it feels like the steering wheel is locked...when I push harder, it begins to act normally again. the federal safety agency recall 24V744 actually describes the symptom much better than I can. I have had the vehicle now 9 months and every time this happens, my heart skips a beat. I have complained to the dealer once, they burned half tank of fuel and told me 'its fine'. Next time I brought it for service, I complained again...because it is a safety issue...They said they would have to charge me to look at it...on a 9mo old vehicle. I'm scared to drive this vehicle because when will the steering completely fail and the car will crash?

Around 6,000 miles I started noticing a weird sticking sensation in the steering wheel when making small corrections at highway speeds. It feels like the wheel catches on a point near center and needs a little extra force to push through. It's subtle but it's happened enough times to startle me while driving at highway speeds, which is genuinely scary. My dealer looked at it but said they couldn't reproduce the issue and wouldn't take action. On top of that, the Lane Keeping Assist (LKAS) has been really erratic. Instead of making smooth corrections to keep me in my lane, it jerks back and forth in a ping-pong pattern. I think it might be connected to the steering issue, but either way it makes highway driving feel unpredictable and unsafe. I'm filing this because both issues together make me uncomfortable driving this car at speed. A steering system that sticks and a lane assist that overcorrects is a bad combination, and I don't think it should be on a car with 6,000 miles on it.

Steering binds or sticks while steering wheel is on center requiring diligence to maintain the vehicle's course. The steering also will periodically act as if the road departure system is engaged even when that feature and lane assist are turned off. The vehicle will dart to the right, but not to the left. Vehicle front suspension was re-aligned, but problems still persists.

this car has lane keeping assistance but this is very bad, if you let the assistant assist you at 65mph for more than 5 seconds you probably die, because this assistance move you like ping pong from left side to right side. Also this has a very bad quality of steering rack after 30 days starts making noise and they fixed but the noise starts again. i was forced to trade in this car, ocean Honda of Burlingame hide reports they also hide from carfax they make services or replace parts but they only stated like tire rotation or driveability check tire pressure check be aware of this.
