2016 Honda Accord

I am writing to report a serious safety issue with the radio/head unit in my 2016 Honda Accord. The head unit intermittently fails while I am driving, producing a sudden, extremely loud static noise that continues without stopping until the car is turned off. This issue creates a hazardous driving condition because the unexpected loud static is distracting and disorienting, and it prevents me from using the car safely until I can safely stop and turn off the vehicle. This failure has occurred repeatedly, and I am concerned that it could cause an accident or prevent me from reacting appropriately to road conditions. I request that the NHTSA investigate this defect in the radio/head unit for the 2016 Honda Accord to prevent potential accidents and injuries.

While i was driving on the freeway one Sunday afternoon, the radio started making a static noise. It became very loud that i could barely hear the cars around. I tried to turn off the radio to no avail. I pulled over on the road side, turned off the vehicle and waited for a few minutes. When I started the car, the noise came back on even though the radio power was off. Since then about two months now, the same issue comes on especially when temperatures are high. Honda recommends to replace the Radio. I believe this issue should be Manufacturer's responsibility for a voluntary service campaign. It's a safety concern since you cannot control the radio once the static comes on.

The contact owns a 2016 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving in a temperature of 90 degrees Fahrenheit, there was an abnormally loud static sound emerging from the speakers. Upon starting the vehicle, the static sound was heard and failed to stop. No warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the infotainment system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The dealer informed her that the system was overheated due to the outside temperature. The manufacturer was contacted, opened a case, and referred to the NHTSA hotline. The failure mileage was approximately 145,000.

Stereo broke in an incredibly unsafe way, have read many similar reports online. Stereo started producing uncontrollable static, turning down volume did nothing, incredibly distracting while driving, volume definitely in excess of 100db, could not hear anything happening outside the car, could not focus easily on the road with the sudden static piercing my ears. Noise was loud enough that my ears rang afterward.

Loud Static/Screeching Noise: A major, widely reported issue is sudden, extremely loud static, often described as max-volume screeching from all speakers. It often triggers during hot weather or when the car heats up. This is dangerous because it is extremely loud even if you have the volume on your radio completely off. Causes your ears to bleed as some say. After looking into it more. I realized this is a very common problem in 2016 honda accords and should be recalled due to something faulty in the motherboard…

The rear camera on my Honda Accord has gone blank.There is no recall by Honda when I checked and with the camera out it is very dangerous when in reverse.I believe that water from washing the car or rainfall is causing the camera to go out as several times when I lifted the truck water would suddenly drip from the truck latch where the camera is located.Honda says I am out of warranty and it is about a 300.00 repair.

Spontaneous explosion of sunroof. Today its about 85 degree F. The car was parked for a few hours in the carport. Took it out for a short drive. Approximately 0.5 miles from my home, the sunroof exploded as I was accelerating from a full stop at a red light. It appears to have exploded 'up' (I have photographs), and the glass landed both on top of the car and inside my car. Approximately 15% of the glass separated completely (half on top of the car and half in the passenger area). I have scratches from the glass showering on me. This was completely without warning. I've maintained the outside of the car recently and there has been no damage up until this event.

While driving, the vehicle intermittently emits an extremely loud burst of static through all speakers without warning, even when the audio system is off. The noise is uncontrollable (volume does not respond), and the only way to stop it is to turn the vehicle off. This creates an enormous safety hazard due to the sudden, high-volume noise that startles, distracts, and lastly impairs hearing and situational awareness while driving (especially at highway speeds) The issue occurs intermittently and appears to worsen after the vehicle has been running for some time or upon start up when it is hot outside. Based on similar reports from other owners, this appears to be a widespread defect involving the infotainment/head unit. I love my 2016 honda accord, but I cannot afford to shell out over $1200+ to replace the head unit to fix the problem. Many people are encountering this problem and as widespread as it is, it should have a recall placed on it :(

I've been living with fuel pump issues for a year or so, i must prime the pump, meaning cycle the fuel pump without starting to get the car to start, if not it just cranks and doesn't start, my vehicle year is definitely on the expanded recall list, but for whatever reason my specific VIN doesn't come up on recall list, this is very frustrating as it is very clear my fuel pump is not holding pressure, please also see, 2026 Denso Fuel Pump Settlement warranty extension (15 years/150,000 miles, Service Bulletin 19-016 Is there anyway to help to get me on the list, my car is getting worse and worse and i really need it to get fixed, my VIN is [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
