2024 Honda Accord Hybrid

I received a recall notice yesterday for my car, [XXX] . I called 3 dealerships in my area today and they all say they don't know when parts will be available. And how am I supposed to use my car now if they have no responsibility for what may happen. There is no date when I can check and replace the recalled part. I have called bill page Honda 6715 Arlington Blvd, Falls Church, VA 22042 and called a couple other dealerships no one knows when they will receive the parts and be able to check if there is a problem and replace the recalled part.

I am writing to let you know that 10/2/2024 my 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport had sudden loss of drive-line power while I was traveling on the highway at 75mph. I was able to safely coast/navigate to the shoulder and stop. Steering and braking systems were normal. The car would not drive or restart once stopped. A tow truck was called to tow my car to the nearest Honda dealer to be fixed. There were no warning lights or sounds prior to this incident. Dealer determined root cause of problem was PCM not communicating with charging system. The PCM was replaced under warranty and my car was ready for pickup 10/18/2024

There is a creaking noise coming from underneath the steering wheel when turning the wheel left or right. The sound is audible when driving at slow and moderate speeds when turning the wheel greater than ~90 degrees in either direction. The main concern is that the noise could indicate a more severe safety problem in the future. Vehicle is currently being inspected by the dealer after recreating the problem at the service center. No additional warning messages are displayed on the car.

Brand new car. After approximately six months, the drive shaft started making very loud popping noises when turning the steering wheel at low speeds. This happens 100% of the time with even minimal steering wheel movement. Honda is not sure if the drive shaft is rubbing against the frame of failing within the driveshaft. Honda is not reporting any service guidance so each dealership is pulling apart the cars looking for solutions. This should be recalled.

This is a hybrid vehicle with only 1100 miles on it. The engine start to stutter and violently shake when the gas engine turns on at low speed or idle. The car will have limited power during this time and the acceleration will be jerky. This is a safety concerns since this behavior can kick in randomly, because the car computer decides when the gas engine kicks in, which is unpredictable. I have done some research online with Honda owners and this issue is fairly common for new (2024 and 2025) Honda hybrid vehicles such as the CRV or Accord. almost all people reporting this issue have their cars less than 10k miles. Online report seems to indicate that the problem is related to bad fuel injector. Some reported that dealers unable or refuse to perform repair due to unavailable parts. I will have an inspection from a local Honda dealer later this week. I currently do not have warning lights on at the moment. But other owners have mentioned check engine and/or check transmission warning lights as this issue progresses.

I started smelling gas getting in and out and near the car. I checked under the car when I first started smelling it and for maybe a couple more days before it had an appointment for PDR repair at body shop. I wasn’t seeing gas. I had night dropped the car at the body shop and when they smelled it they called and asked if they could take it to Honda of Lincoln for me. They said it was a puncture, denied warranty coverage (not a defect) and sent info to me to send to Honda Corporate who they told me to call - they wanted $5,000 to pull the engine and drop the rear end to feed a new line in with the idea that Honda might offer assistance. Honda is trying to settle with me - I’m holding out though - part of the settlement would be I don’t get to keep the line - I keep thinking about how I was smelling it for some days before any was visible on the ground - as if it started very small and grew - even now (it’s been parked) if you put the line under pressure after you shut it off it will only leave about an 8 inch spot which is an incredibly small amount of gas. I made an appointment for next week at another shop- I want to keep it and get it looked at by some university professor who knows something about plastics and find out for sure if this is a defect or not -Actually I should clarify that what I term a settlement they characterize as assistance in the form of them absorbing a portion of the repair costs, but they still say I can’t keep the line.

I was driving a busy 4 lane street when the brake warning light came on. Car slowed down and I managed to turn off onto a side street. When I pushed the throttle there was no reaction. The car would not move. I shut it off and restarted then it would go. The Brake System Warning light was on. Said: BRAKE SYSTEM Brake system problem. Brake performance may be reduced. See your dealer. I drove straight to dealer, and they checked the car and cleared the codes. Could not find anything wrong. I was lucky to be able to get off busy street without incident.
