2024 Honda Accord Hybrid Problems

The steering in my 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid gets sticky. It resists movement making small adjustments, especially on the highway. It gets worse the longer that I drive but then goes away if I stop the car (like at a rest stop) but then reappears soon after. After my 2nd complaint to the dealership, the service manager states that he took it on a one hour drive and didn't experience the same issue. I called the dealership on 10/30/2025 stating that the problem seems to be getting worse. They said that they couldn't do anything unless they can recreate the issue, but could not offer me a loaner vehicle while they have my car. At times, knowing that the steering is electronically controlled, I fear that I will lose all steering when driving on the highway. This issue needs to be investigated to see if the recall that involved other VIN's of the same model needs to be expanded.

Wiring harness failed randomly at 42,000 with no damage to the harness, engine, or vehicle itself. Without the wiring harness the engine does not run properly and shakes violently, causing the car to lose power. This happened with no prior warnings, problems, or damage. Additionally the steering rack seems “loose” and changes direction quite quickly when hitting a pothole or uneven roads even at lower speeds. I have to make sure I constantly have a firm grip on the wheel so no sudden unexpected direction changes occur due to imperfections in the road.

Component/System: Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) or related software. Vehicle available for inspection. Safety Risk: Vehicle brakes or decelerates unexpectedly during normal driving, risking rear-end collisions. Most recent incident on August 23, 2025, required override by pressing accelerator and shifting to neutral in traffic. Reproduction: Dealer could not replicate issue during May 16, 2025 visit. No diagnostic codes found. Radar and braking systems reported as “operating normally.” A second evaluation occurred after September 5, 2025, with no resolution; issue persists. Inspection: Inspected by Honda dealership twice—on May 16, 2025 (Invoice #488382) and again after September 5, 2025. No third-party inspections. Symptoms: Braking occurs in Sport, Normal, and Econ modes. Happens when accelerating from stop or easing off accelerator. Brake light activates falsely. No warning lamps or messages prior to failure. Issue has occurred 10+ times over the past year. Related Software Issues: Radio failure (resolved via software update). Clock shows incorrect time. Apple CarPlay fails to connect until restart. Navigation compass shows concentric circles.

I was sitting in my car, and the entire steering and brake system went offline and the car had a bunch of hazard lights on and said to tow to a dealership. I tested the steering, and didn’t feel the wheels turn with the steering wheel, and the brakes went to the floor. When I went to shut off my car, it did the emergency shut-off (press 2xs or hold for 3 seconds). I attempted to restart the car about 4 times that night, and then I let it sit and tried it again 2 more times before having it towed to the dealership. The dealership stated they received the car and everything was suddenly fine and there were no code history, and they could not tell me the issue. Prior to this, the only issue I had was the car braking when no one was in front of me, but no issues with the steering wheel. With the entire brake system and steering system out, it could have caused a serious accident if I was driving at the time, but I was parked.

Vehicle shakes roughly and vibrations on this 2024 Honda Accord hybrid when transitioning from electric to gas motor at idle. This occurs sporadically but generally when idling in traffic or a drive thru etc. The electric motor is working in this idle stage, but when the heater or AC is on and you are idling for a period of time, it will kick on the gas motor causing shaking of the vehicle. This occurs mainly when the gas motor is kicking on from idle and sometimes when it shuts itself back off again. This problem was reported to selling dealer Smail Honda at a service appointment on 6/9/25. Tech did not find the problem and left these notes: "Scanned computer for faults and none present. Vehicle operating as designed." In my opinion, the vehicle is not operating as designed and this could be a possible safety issue so I'm filing this incident with NHTSA.

The contact owns a 2024 Honda Accord. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V763000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the part to do the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer was contacted. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. VIN tool confirms parts not available.

I was driving on an expressway 355 on Friday July 25. It was raining hard. I slowed down and was getting ready to exit on 55 when the lights On the dash all started lighting up and telling me it required immediate attention at the dealer. The car would not accelerate. I was going slow and was able to idol to the space between 355 and 55. There were cars all around me. I put my hazards on and turned it off. I waited a minute and restarted it. Luckily it started and I was able to drive. This happened on an expressway during a storm I was terrified and worried that I would cause an accident by not being able to move the vehicle. This happened once before also while raining but was in a parking lot of a gas station. I took it in and they told me it’s the 12V battery. However was not failing while at dealer. This is a serious safety issue.

The contact owns a 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed into a parking space, the brake pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to stop. The vehicle unintendedly accelerated and drove over a parking space bump. The contact shifted the transmission into reverse(R) and depressed the accelerator pedal, and then the brake pedal, but the vehicle failed to stop. The contact turned the steering wheel while driving approximately 30-40 MPH to avoid crashing in other vehicles and structures in the parking lot. The vehicle reversed in circles and crashed into the side of a fence before it came to a stop. The air bags did not deploy. The contact suffered back, hip, and leg pain but had not received medical attention immediately. The contact's granddaughter was a passenger inside the vehicle and had no injuries. The contact later sought medical attention from a massage therapist. No Police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who determined that there was 100% acceleration without the brakes activating, and the vehicle was not shifted into park(P). The vehicle was then towed to a Collision Center for rear damages; however, the vehicle was not yet repaired. The contact was informed that a third-party company would evaluate the vehicle and the Event Data Recorder (EDR) to recalibrate the EDR. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was filed. The failure mileage was 23,069.

The contact owned a 2024 Honda Accord. The contact stated while at a complete stop at a four-way stop, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to accelerate as intended. The contact stated that the vehicle jerked. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact allowed the vehicle to roll into the residential driveway. The contact turned the vehicle off. The contact’s son noticed the fire coming from under the hood and yelled for the contact to exit the vehicle. The fire department was called and extinguished the fire. The vehicle was towed to a local tow yard. The vehicle was condemned as a total loss. The contact stated that the vehicle was purchased six months before the failure. In addition, the contact received a recall notification, NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V763000 (Fuel System, Gasoline), which was received after the failure had occurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case. The failure mileage was approximately 4,200.

I was driving at about 40 mph and the car lost all power and stopped in the middle of the road. Most all of the warning lights were on like low air pressure, reduced brakes and a brake problem light etc. Turned the car off and restarted and drove another 5 miles with the brake problem light still on. Stopped and restarted car and the brake light went off and all seems normal now. From my reading on Honda Accord Forums it might be a bad ICM unit? Will be contacting a Honda dealer soon.

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

I am writing to report a recurring issue with my 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid. The interior rear-view mirror has detached multiple times from the windshield under normal conditions and adjustments. This poses a safety concern, as it obstructs proper rear visibility and could become a distraction while driving due to the detachment. I believe this issue warrants further investigation to determine if it is isolated or part of a broader defect. Thank you for your attention to this matter. Sincerely, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

At higher speeds, 60+ MPH, the drivers side mirror will vibrate causing visibility issues, as the image is not stable. This is cause for concern when traveling at high speeds and using the mirror to check surroundings for lane changes.

Honda has a noise on the left side of the front wheel. dealer said was the steering wheel

Turning the wheel causes a popping and crackle type of noise. The sound is continuing to worsen and I can hear it from inside and outside of the car. Local Honda dealer told us there isn’t a replacement part as of now and this is a factory defect that hasn’t been recalled at the present time. I feel it could be a safety issue related to the ability to steer and control the car when it sticks or pulls

I had an accident on I-85 I was rear ended after traffic slammed on breaks and the car behind had been riding my bumper for miles. He went through my trunk and almost came into my backseat. I was also pushed into the car infront of me which his directly on the drivers side of my car. My front end is completely pushed on the drivers side into to where you can see the metal frame. On the rear, the bumper and metal frame completely came off. I was hit directly on impact sensors on both ends and none of my airbags went off. And my seatbelt did not lock up. We were still going about 60-70mph when he hit me. The car is a total loss.

The contact owns a 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid. The contact stated while driving 63 - 65 MPH, the vehicle experienced a side-to-side collision on the passenger's side that involved another vehicle. The passenger's side curtain air bags deployed, an alarm sounded, and a message advising of a braking failure was displayed. The contact depressed the brake pedal, but the vehicle failed to respond. The contact veered into the grass in the median lane, and the vehicle came to a stop. The contact stated that during the collision, the seat belt failed to retract and fully extended, causing the contact to hit the sternum against the steering wheel. The contact also sustained whiplash. The contact did not seek medical assistance. A police report was filed, but the contact did not have the police report information available. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence, where it was picked up by the insurance company and towed to an inspection site. The dealer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.

Car since bought brand new had a pull to one side of the road with noises coming from steering components when operating or hitting any road bumps, which led to prematurely worn wheels and road noises( capping) dealer performed alignment and changed cable reel in steering column.., it got misaligned again 5 days later! And still going through the dark tunnel please help!

I had a flat tire while driving on 7/8/25 and THE TPMS error did not show up in the car screen. I informed the dealer Hoen Honda motors of Carlsbad, CA, and he mentioned that TPMS will not work for flat tire.

Purchased my car brand new. Within 1.5 years I've had to have 2 steering racks replaced and another component replaced within the steering column. Currently my lane keeping assist problem is on and I'm waiting to get appt confirmation from the service dept manager. My infotainment center went black and quit working and had to be replaced a little over a year after purchasing the car. The paint began peeling off my front bumper within 6 months of purchasing the car. I'm currently dealing with the Honda I purchased from to try to come to a resolution of this issue since I don't want my brand new car to have a bumper repainted and possibly not match and have it show up on a carfax report. Also have what the dealership calls "fisheyes" under the clear coat of the factory paint. Approx 20-25 spots on my entire car. The dealership said they could "buff" the places but shouldnt have left the factory in that condition. The body shop that Honda sent me too said once they started buffing on the "fisheyes" that they couldn't guarantee that the buffing of the spots would correct the issue or if they would need to repaint which I'm not ok with since it is a brand new car and paint might not even match the rest of the car. Also', I should add that all the maintenance and repairs have been completed at the dealership where I purchased my car brand new.

While driving on the highway, the skid plate of my vehicle suddenly detached and crumpled underneath the car, creating a loud scraping noise as it dragged along the road. All maintenance and service for the vehicle have been performed at Honda of Cleveland Heights. I am concerned that this incident may be the result of a design failure or an oversight during recent maintenance.

After we purchased our Accord Hybrid Touring car last month in Marysville, OH, we could NOT believe that the passenger seat did not have a vertical adjustment!! My wife sits here most of the time when we use the vehicle, she is [XXX] and CANNOT see out over the dashboard in the seat. If the air bag ever deploys here, it will hit her in the head, which could cause her a severe injury!! She has tried sitting on big cushion, but it is very uncomfortable and will not use it most of the time in the vehicle. We would not have purchased the vehicle, IF we had known this inability of the passenger seat! We have found out by looking online that many other people have had this same problem w/o any real resolution to this issue. We want to inform Honda Corporate that if it cannot resolve this problem and we have issue with air bag in the future, we will be taking legal actions to obtain a remedy!!

The backup camera installed on 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid EXL is of poor quality at night. When backing up at night backup camera image is extremely "foggy" and pixelated making it very difficult to see compared with our other vehicles. Nearly ran over family member backing up as I could not make out their image. During daytime / light, camera image is fine.
