I was turning into a parking space at my office, speed < 5mph, applied the brakes to make the turn. There were construction workers at the site, speed bumps and children coming and going. I was very attentive to all these circumstances as I turned into the spot. Suddenly there was an unexpected acceleration of the car with no ability to brake the vehicle, which did not stop until it hit a brick wall that was directly in front of the car, perhaps just 8-10 feet away. When the first attempt to brake did not work, I hit the brake a second time. Still nothing. After I hit the wall, a contraction worker who saw the entire thing came over to check on me. (I did have a seatbelt on, and the airbag did not deploy.) I felt like I was okay, but was shook up and confused. I told him what happened. He stated that he could smell the brakes, which were so hot from trying to stop the car. Substantial front end damage was incurred, and the car was towed to a body shop. Assessment there showed that there were no problems with the brake itself and there was plenty of brake fluid in the reservoir. I believe this is another incident, like others have reported, where the car accelerates as the brakes are tapped. I consider this car to be dangerous at this point, and I am waiting for the insurance company to determine if they will total it. I have not had this problem before, but have had a few times when there was a lag in the acceleration. I haven't talked to honda yet, but I will do so this weekend.

Drove the car next day, every thing was ok. Check out the brakes on my long drive way, every thing seem ok. When over to a friends house, monday, again same thing happen, went thru a gasoline station, and the electronic stability controls accelerated, was finally able to stop it, when the brakes return to normal. When we were leaving our friends house, the battery was dead. Had to jump start, every thing was ok driving home. Trying to set up a appointment at the honda dealer today.
