2016 Honda Accord

While traveling in New York City, several warning lights illuminated on the dashboard of my 2016 Honda Accord, including a red light for the brakes. Upon returning home, my local dealer diagnosed the problem and determined that the vehicle stability assist (VSA) module failed and needed to be replaced. I prepaid for the part; however, the dealer advised that the VSA module is on backorder and will not be available until November 5, 2023. I feel that the delay of a critical brake component affects my safety and the safety of other motorists. Therefore, I requests assistance with the immediate repair of the vehicle or alternate transportation until repairs are completed.

MY VEHICLES CRUSE CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE, COLLISION WARNING AND LANE ASSIST COMPLETELY STOPPED WORKING AFTER BEING PARKED (STATIONARY) IN MY DRIVEWAY, VEHICLE HAS ALWAYS HAD PROBLEMS WITH FRONT SUSPENSION SINCE NEW AND BECOME UNSTABLE WITH BRAKING HARD IF ANOTHER DRIVER CUT ME OFF HAVING TO APPLY BRAKES OR WHEN APPLYING BRAKES DOWN HILL.. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DEAL FOR FRONT SUSPENSION BUT NEVER FIXED AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS UNDER WARRANTY.. THE LATEST ISSUE WITH DRIVER SAFETY SYSTEM IS A MANUFACTURERS FAILURE AS THESE ARE FEATURES SUPPOSEDLY TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS AND SO FOURTH ON PUBLIC ROADS AND HIGHWAYS. MY VEHICLE IS JUST OVER 4 YEARS OLD AND MAINTAINED AND SERVICED TO MANUFACTURES SPECIFICATION. IN RESEARCHING THRU THE WEB I FOUND HONDA OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE WITH THEIR VEHICLE. I BELIEVE HONDA SHOULD RECALL AND FIX THESE PROBLEMS ON THEIR VEHICLES COMPUTER / SOFTWARE OR SENSORS FOR PUBLIC SAFETY. PART OF THE WEATHER DOOR WINDOW STRIPPING IS ALSO DETERIORATING.

SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN 2016 THE RADIO HAS BEEN FREEZING THEN GOING COMPLETELY BLACK WHILE DRIVING. MY BATTERY HAS DIED MULTIPLE TIMES WITHOUT LEAVING ANYTHING ON OR OPEN. I'M CURRENTLY SITTING IN THE PARKING LOT AFTER JUST STARTING MY CAR AND MOVING IT TO ANOTHER PARKING SPOT, CAME BACK TO START MY CAR AND GO HOME AND THE BATTERY WAS FAINTLY TRYING TO START AND THEN COMPLETELY DIED. MY CAR WON'T START AND THE RADIO SCREEN IS WHITE. NOW IS MAKING A CLICKING SOUND WITHOUT TOUCHING ANYTHING.

I WAS DRIVING ON 35-38 MPH IN A 35MPH ZONE. THE ROAD WAS CURVING IN THE FORM OF A C AND MY TIRES STARTED TO SKID. ONCE I APPLIED BRAKES AND I COULDN'T FEEL ANYTHING BRAKING AND ONCE AGAIN APPLIED, THE CAR TURNED 90 DEGREE, STRAIGHTENED OUT ON THE ROAD BUT NOT COMPLETELY MEANING THE CAR WAS STILL GOING FORWARD IN THE DIRECTION ON THE ROAD BUT A 30 DEGREE ANGLE. I COULDN'T CONTROL STEERING OR BRAKES AND HIT A FIRE HYDRANT AT THE END. I ASKED THE INSURANCE COMPANY TO CONTACT HONDA FOR DETAILS KNOW THE DIFFERENT CONTROL UNITS AND READING BUT THEY DIDN'T WANT TO GO THAT ROUTE. NOW MY INSURANCE RATE IS UP AND I HAVE 2 POINTS SINCE THE COPS DIDN'T BELIEVE IT COULD HAVE BEEN THE CARS FAULT.

SINCE THE CAR WAS PURCHASED IN MARCH 2016 HAS BEEN HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES, ALMOST EVERYDAY NO START CONDITION. NEEDS TO BE JUMPED EVERYDAY. HAD THE DASH BOARD FUSE BLOWN WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF PURCHASE OF THE CAR, HAD BATTERY REPLACED WITHIN 9 MONTHS OF PURCHASE AND HAD ALTERNATOR TESTED. SINCE THE TRANSMISSION RECALL ROUGH IDLE ON DRIVE AND RPMS LOWER THEN WHAT NORMALLY WERE. NO RECALL AS OER VIN FOR BATTERY SENSOR BUT THERES SOME SERIOUS ISSUE CAR WANTS TO STALL WHILE DRIVING SOMETIMES. SOMETING SERIOUSLY WRONG. RANDOMLY STEERING LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL, BRAKE LIGHY COMES ON AND GOES OFF

MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING, I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT ON A CLEAR DAY, FULL VISIBILITY, THERE WAS A CAR SEVERAL CAR LENGTHS AHEAD OF US TURNING RIGHT. IT CLEARED THE WAY WITHOUT US NEEDING TO BREAK. WE WERE TRAVELING ABOUT 40 MPH AT AROUND 2PM. OUR VEHICLE THOUGHT THERE WAS STILL A HAZARD IN THE ROAD. WE HAVE A SENSING PACKAGE IN THE VEHICLE, WHICH CAUSED OUR CAR TO COME TO A FULL AND COMPLETE STOP, ENGAGING THE SEAT BELTS AS WELL. WE HAVE FULL VIDEO EVIDENCE OF THE INCIDENT FROM A THIRD PARTY DASH CAM. WE WERE ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP THINKING THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT, IT WAS RETURNED, SAYING THAT THE CAR WORKED AS INTENDED. HAVING BEEN IN THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME, AND I DISAGREE, AND AM NOW EXTREMELY AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR. WHILE I HAVE NO PICTURES, I HAVE FULL VIDEO OF THE INCIDENT, AND WILL GLADLY PROVIDE IT UPON REQUEST.
