2015 Honda Accord Problems

In my 2015 Honda Accord. The ABS, adaptive cruise control, vehicle stability assist, power steering, lane departure warning, forward collision warning, traction control, hill start assist, and brake system dash lights have all been intermittently coming on and off starting right around 150k miles. Now all of the lights have been on for some time now. I spoke to AutoNation Honda and Chapman Honda here in Tucson and both dealerships said it was a known VSA module issue with Honda. One quoted a $3,700 fix while the other estimated the job to be about $3,800. Technicians at AutoNation Honda confirmed that my Accord has the 32-11 ABS Solenoid Valve Malfunction, and the 85-01 VSA Module Malfunction codes that are directly related to the weak solder used by Honda on these modules. It’s unbelievable that this has been a known issue with Honda’s VSA/ABS modules, and nothing can be done because the cars regular brakes can still be used. This issue directly affects almost every safety function this car came with. Everything is disabled. It’s really unfortunate that this known issue can be labeled as normal wear.

First time my 2015 Accord 4dr FWD V6 AT failed to turn, I was coming out of parking area onto busy highway when I suddenly wasn't able to turn steering wheel to right enough to complete the turn and crossed over oncoming traffic lane to opposite shoulder. I parked and tried turning both directions while stationary, and was able to get full range to the left smoothly, but continued to meet complete resistance slightly right of center. There were no warnings whatsoever and the car operated normally prior to this incident. After about 4 minutes of sitting, I restarted car and noticed steering was restored both directions, firmer when moving and very smooth when parked. I took it home and had independent mechanic diagnose and troubleshoot with no answers other than possibly suspension or alignment. I replaced suspension components, got 4-wheel alignment, and steering was firm, responsive, and didn't lock up again for about 200 miles. The next time the steering acted up was when my son was driving back from church and couldn't turn left, again without warning. This time the car kept going straight and he was able to stop before hitting a large metal post. I brought the car home on a trailer. There were no codes, warning lights, sounds, smells, or any other indications of malfunction leading up to this failure. Over the next 2 months, I drove short trips within 8 miles of home on not busy streets and found no specific trend; this steering failure is recurrent, intermittent, and spontaneous, sometimes with stutter in turn. I'm not sure if it's related to known magnet problem or electrical/electronic issue. Obstructs evasive maneuvers. If we were on a mountain (not uncommon if hiking, sightseeing, visiting loved ones, or traveling), this car would have taken my family over the side of steep drop-off or crashed into cliff. Either way, cars don't abruptly transition from horizontal to sharp vertical, and this issue poses severe threat to lives and high probability of injury.

2015 Honda Accord EX-L presenting with constant knocking in the lower back part of the engine. Knocking varies with engine RPMs and is consistent across all drives. Oil has been maintained and at time of checking full, oil presented with copper fragments within the oil meaning a rod bearing has failed. Engine is a, 3.5L 6Cyl GAS J35Y1 Naturally Aspirated, not currently covered by the NHTSA 23V-751 recall, yet presents with all the same symptoms and engine failure issues described by J35Y6 users. Attached file is inspection from repair shop and quote for a new engine and other likely repairs.

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact’s son stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled and failed to exceed 50 MPH. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was able to restart; however, the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that there was a misfire in cylinder #2, causing engine failure, and the contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The vehicle was then taken to an independent mechanic, where it was diagnosed that the fuel pump had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 164,040.

All of a sudden the power steering wasn't working. I had to use all of my strength to turn the wheels. I had to pay for a tow truck take it to my local Honda dealer. They checked it out and said I had to replace the electronic power steering unit and the cost was Over $5000. 00 Dollars.

An accident occurred in my vehicle on 05/29/2026. It resulted in both air bags deploying even though the passenger side that was involved in the collision and damaged. It was considered a total loss due to the frame and passenger side as well as both air bags deployments. The driver sustained major lacerations on his forearm and was bleeding profusely from his arm during the time of the accident. The vehicle did not have comprehensive insurance therefore had to be salvaged and sold to the junk yard.

The Power Steering Light, Traction Light, ABS Light, and Brake Light all came on and would stay on leading me to check the code which was a 121-11 which seems to be a very common issue with the 9th generation Honda Accord.

I was driving down the road and when i tried to hit the throttle to speed up a little suddenly the car just started misfiring randomly with zero warning beforehand. I tried to hit the throttle a couple more times but it kept misfiring and then the engine light, tpms light, traction control light and a couple other lights all lit up and i immediately had to pull over to the side of the road because it was extremely dangerous. i will also add that i had just got off the freeway maybe two minutes prior and it would've been a completely different story if that had happen then. I have an OBD scanner in my car and i immediately pulled it out to check what the codes were which it was a single code all around P0087. The high pressure fuel pump had completely died in the middle of me driving and was not even allowing a test when i took it in for a diagnostic. i replaced the high pressure fuel pump and it completely resolved the car issues and the codes went away immediately. i still have the faulty pump in my possession to. be inspected by someone if needed. the only reason a crash or something extremely tragic didn't happen is because it was later at night and the cars behind me happen to be a decent enough distance for me to be able to get over to put my car in a safer position to not obstruct the road and get a tow truck to assist me.

There is a clicking noise from both sides of the wheels and it causing to vibrate at higher speeds. cClicking sound is more prominent when turning from left to right. I am concerned that the axles may fail as I see online that a recall has been issued for the lubricant used in manufactoring the part

The transmission on my 2015 Honda Accord failed and I was stranded on the side of the road. The engine started to accelerate on its own and soon after the gas peddle was not working and I was forced to pull over. My safety was put at risk because I had to pull over on the highway late at night and was stranded. The transmission failed and the issue code is P1890. I found details on this known issue here: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2016/MC-10084981-2280.pdf There is no recall but it is a known issue, and I believe it is dangerous for Honda to allow these cars to remain on the road without new transmissions. According to the link I posted before, the only fix is a new transmission. I believe this should be issued as a recall so other Accord owners (2014-2016 years) do not face the same problem as I did. This problem was fix in 2017. There was no physical damage done to the car and the car received routine maintenance. T

Another vehicle pulled in front of my vehicle, I was unable to avoid the accident and struck the left side rear of his vehicle with my left front. The drivers side air bag did NOT deploy but the passengers side did deploy. I was wearing my seat belt as was my passenger in the right front seat, I also had a passenger in the right rear seat area and none of us were injured. I've been in contact with a couple body shops and the body shop where it's located and all of them said the drivers side air bag should have definitely deployed. No air bag lights were on prior to the accident as well as no other warning lamps. If I hadn't been wearing my seat belt I would have sustained injuries. The car is most likely totaled, the estimate is over $ 18000 and I am waiting for the insurance company to make a settlement offer.

the paint on the original rims has a problem and causes air leaking

Door latch mechanism failed. The door doesnt stay closed, it will fly open if youre not holding onto it. Causes the dash to light up with door ajar and the locks trigger everytime it registers its open and you're moving.

I WEIGH APPROXIMATELY 130 POUNDS. AND THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY CAR. THE MOTOR FOR THE DRIVERS SEAT STARTED MAKING WEIRD RATTLING NOISES. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS WHEN I HAD ABOUT 1 YEAR WITH MY CAR. AND SINCE IT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY I TOOK IT IN TO THE HONDA DEALER IN REDLANDS, CA. THEY 'FIXED' IT. AND NOW 4 YEARS LATER AFTER THAT IT'S MESSED UP AGAIN. EITHER THE MOTORS THAT CONTROL THE SEATS ARE MESSED UP. OR I'M DEFINITELY TO HEAVY FOR MY CAR SEAT TO HANDLE MY WHOLE 130 POUNDS. MY HUSBAND OCCASIONALLY DRIVES MY CAR. AND HE KNOWS HOW IRRITATED I GET WHEN MY SEATS BEEN MOVED SO HE DOESN'T DO ANYTHING BUT MOVE THE SEAT BACK. *TR

SEATS ARE EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE AND CAUSE SEVERE NECK, BACK, AND HIP PAIN. THE HEAD REST FORCES YOUR HEAD FORWARD AND PLACES STRAIN ON YOUR NECK AND BACK. ADJUSTING LUMBAR DOES NOT HELP BUT RATHER CAUSES PAIN IN THE LEGS AND BUTTOCKS. SEAT SURFACES ARE FLAT AND LACK CONTOUR THEREFORE THE DRIVER AND PASSENGERS CONTINUALLY SHIFT. HONDA REFUSES TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO HELP ALLEVIATE THE ISSUE. WE HAVE OWNED 5 HONDA AUTOMOBILES AND WILL NO LONGER PURCHASE HONDA VEHICLES AS THE QUALITY AND CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS GONE DOWN HILL.

The contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, there was an abnormal trembling sensation experienced, accompanied by a clunking sound coming from underneath the front driver’s side of the vehicle, with the TPMS warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed, and the contact was informed that the front passenger’s side axle boot was faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 242,024.

LOST STEERING WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 75 MPH AND CAR STARTED SWERVING BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT CROSSING BOTH LANES. CAR VEERED OFF OF A BRIDGE EMBANKMENT WITH NO CONTROL OF STEERING THE WHOLE TIME. THE POWER STEERING AND STABILITY CONTROL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON DURING THE EVENT. THIS HAPPENED TO MY 22 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER ON APRIL 21, 2021. NO OTHER CARS INVOLVED IN THE ACCIDENT AND NO INJURY TO MY DAUGHTER THANK GOODNESS.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT A SPEED OF 65MPH I HEARD A LOUD POP AND THEN GLASS BREAKING. WHEN I STOPPED THE CAR TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED, THE SUNROOF GLASS WAS SHATTERED. LUCKILY THE SUNROOF COVER WAS CLOSED BECAUSE MY SON WAS SITTING IN THE BACKSEAT. THE WEATHER TODAY WAS ABOUT 50 DEGREES AND RAINY. THE CAR WAS PARKED INSIDE OUR GARAGE BEFOREHAND SINCE THE NIGHT BEFORE.

THE WIPERS INTERMITTENTLY STOP WHILE DRIVING , IT JUST STARTED 2 DAYS AGO. I'M NOT SURE WHAT TO DO

HEADLIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS. WHEN RAINING AT NIGHT I CAN'T EVEN SEE WHAT LANE I'M IN. IS ESPECIALLY BAD WHEN CARS ARE ON OTHER SIDE OF ROAD. WHEN I FIRST GOT THE CAR, I STOPPED TO SEE IF THE HEADLIGHTS WERE EVEN ON. THEY ARE USELESS WHEN ROAD IS WET AND RAINING. OFTEN I CAN'T EVEN SEE WHAT LANE I'M IN. THIS HAS BEEN THE PROBLEM SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN 2018. AND I CANT SEE ON THE LEFT WHEN MAKING A LEFT TURN. THESE LIGHTS ARE DANGEROUS AND NEED TO BE RECALLED. I HAD NO PROBLEM WITH MY PREVIOUS 2015 ACCORD.

TAKATA RECALL CAR DOES NOT WANT TO START SUDDENLY, IT HAPPENS AFTER IT RAINS USUALLY BUT TODAY IT DID NOT RAIN AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN I READ REVIEWS OF OTHERS WHO HAD SAME PROBLEMS ALL THE DASH SYMBOLS GO ON TOO IT HAPPENS AFTER I SHUT CAR OFF AND SHORTLY TRY TO RESTART IT

Car was in accident late August 2024. Car was brought to Honda dealership in Harrisonburg, VA. Repairs were made early September 2024 except for driver seat belt. Part is currently still on backorder with Honda (today is 1/16/2025). A case (#XXX) has been opened with Honda Corporate but part has no estimated date available. Car can not be driven as it is not legal or safe to drive without part. Part must be a new part, no used or remanufactured part is acceptable. Honda continues to produce new vehicles with seat belts but they are not providing required safety parts for existing cars. Waiting 5 months is unacceptable and being without this car comes at expense and burden to us. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
