THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE VEHICLE HESITATES AFTER I START A TURN, THEN HAVE TO STOP, THEN WHEN I WANT TO ACCELERATE AGAIN THE HESITATION OCCURS. THIS HAS OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 6 TIMES IN A 4000 MILE PERIOD. THE VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS ACCELERATED AFTER HESITATING BUT THERE IS A NOTICEABLE HESITATION WHICH IS CAUSE FOR CONCERN. I HAVE READ OTHER COMMENTS ABOUT SIMILAR HESITATION PROBLEMS WHICH SEEM TO MIRROR MY EXPERIENCE. I WILL ASK THE DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHEN I NEXT TAKE THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE. *TR

THAT WAS ON MONDAY 12/31/2012 WHILE TRAFFIC IN FREEWAY WAS VERY CLEAR. I SET CRUISE CONTROL AT 60 MILE/HOUR BUT SUDDENLY THE CAR KEPT INCREASING FASTER MORE THAN 75 MILES. I WAS PANIC AND KEPT STEPPING BRAKE TO REDUCE SPEED. ABOUT ONE MINUTE, THE CAR WAS REDUCED AT SPEED OF 50 MILES/HOUR. I TESTED IT WITHOUT CRUISE CONTROL. I DROVE STEADILY ABOUT 60 MILE/HOUR ABOUT 10 MINUTES THAT THE CAR STARTED ACCELERATED BY ITSELF AGAIN AND HIT 75 MILES/HOUR. I KEPT STEPPING BRAKE STEADILY TO REDUCE SPEED UNTIL IT KICKING INTO 50 MILE/HR. THIS CAR IS DEFINITELY DEFECTIVE CAR WITH NUMEROUS ISSUES. ITS DEFROST SYSTEM DOES NOT FUNCTION AT ALL THAT ALMOST KILLED ME ON SEPTEMBER 2012. AGAIN I BROUGHT IT TO DEALER ON 01/02/2013 FOR ACCELERATED ISSUE AND DEFROST SYSTEM BUT HONDA POWER DEALER STILL COULD NOT DETECT IT. I FILED COMPLAINT WITH FTC AND DISTRICT ATTORNEY/PROSECUTE UNIT TO REQUEST TO INVESTIGATE ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I CONTACTED TO HONDA MOTOR TO REQUEST IT TO TAKE THIS CAR BACK AND TERMINATE MY LEASE BUT HONDA MOTOR REFUSED MY REQUEST BECAUSE HONDA MOTOR USED TEST RESULTS FROM POWER HONDA DEALER AND HONDA WORLD DEALER AS HONDA MOTOR 'S DECISION FOUND THAT THERE WERE NOT ANY DEFECTIVE WITH DEFROST SYSTEM AND ACCELERATE FOUND. HONDA MOTOR MADE THIS CAR AND FAILED TO DETECT ITS PROBLEMS THAT IS NO MATTER IT CAN DETECT THIS CAR PROBLEM OR NOT THAT HONDA HAS TO HOLD ACCOUNTABILITY TO LEASE IT TO ME.

FROM A STANDSTILL OR SPEEDS UP TO APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL IS DEPRESSED THERE IS A DELAY IN THE RESPONSE AND THEN AN UNEXPECTED AND SUDDEN ACCELERATION OCCURS. THIS PROBLEM DOES NOT OCCUR FREQUENTLY BUT OFTEN ENOUGH TO BE CONSIDERED DANGEROUS. WHEN I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT OF THE HONDA DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE, I WAS TOLD THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPUTER DETERMINING WHAT GEAR THE VEHICLE WAS IN AND WHAT YOU WERE ASKING THE COMPUTER TO DO AND THERE WAS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. I WAS ALSO TOLD TO JUST "GAS IT" WHEN THE PROBLEM OCCURRED. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND UNSATISFACTORY SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. IF THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN PULLING OUT SLOWLY INTO TRAFFIC ONE COULD BE HIT FROM BEHIND BY ANOTHER VEHICLE OR IF YOU SUDDENLY "GASSED IT" YOU COULD LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND HIT A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF YOUR VEHICLE OR POSSIBLY A PERSON STANDING CLOSE BY. WHEN I ASKED IF THIS WAS A PROBLEM IN THE ENTIRE HONDA LINE I WAS TOLD YES AND ALSO WAS TOLD THIS WAS A PROBLEM WITH ALL OF THE LATEST MODEL VEHICLES NOT JUST THE HONDA LINE. I SINCERELY BELIEVE THIS IS A DANGEROUS PROBLEM WHICH SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND FIXED EVEN THOUGH THE DEALERSHIP SAID IT COULD NOT BE FIXED. *TR

INCIDENT DATE: 12/05/2011, 5:45PM WEATHER/ROAD CONDITION: GOOD, NO RAIN/SNOW, NORMAL TRAFFIC PATTERN SUMMARY: ACCORD 2012 LX HAD A SUDDEN ENGINE REV FOR ABOUT A COUPLE OF SECONDS AND WENT BACK TO NORMAL WITHOUT DRIVER INTERVENTION. MINOR GAS PEDAL VIBRATION NOTICED FOR FIRST 500 MILES DURING BREAK-IN. DETAILS: I WAS DRIVING ACCORD 2012 LX ON A LOCAL MAIN STREET AT ABOUT 20 TO 25 MPH, ENTERING A NORMAL SMALL SLOPE. I SUDDENLY HEARD LOUDER ENGINE NOISE, AND NOTICED TACHOMETER GOING UP FROM BELOW 2K TO 3K RPM QUICKLY. AT THE SAME TIME, I FELT GAS PEDAL WAS MOVING AWAY FROM MY RIGHT FOOT. EVENTUALLY THE GAS PEDAL CAME BACK AND TACHOMETER READING WENT BACK TO NORMAL AS WELL. THIS LASTED FOR A COUPLE OF SECONDS. I DID NOT MOVE MY RIGHT FOOT AWAY FROM GAS PEDAL AND DID NOT INTERVENE WHILE THIS WAS HAPPENING. SINCE THIS SUDDEN ENGINE REV WENT AWAY IN A COUPLE OF SECONDS BY ITSELF, I DIDN'T FEEL THAT THE ACCORD ACCELERATED A LOT DURING THE PERIOD. DURING FIRST 500 MILES ON THE ACCORD, I ALSO FELT MINOR GAS PEDAL VIBRATION FREQUENTLY ON ROADS THAT ARE NOT PERFECTLY PAVED AND HAVE SOME MINOR BUMPS. I HAVE NEVER NOTICED ANY SUCH GAS PEDAL VIBRATION ON OTHER CARS WHEN DRIVING DOWN ON THE SAME ROADS. THE VIBRATION BECAME LESS PRONOUNCED AFTER 500 MILES, AND I DIDN'T NOTICE IT LATELY. I AM NOT SURE IF THERE IS ANY RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN INITIAL GAS PEDAL VIBRATION DURING BREAK-IN AND RECENT ENGINE REV INCIDENT. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT HIGHWAY SAFETY OF THE CAR. *TR
