Defect Description:

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: WARNINGS

Potential Consequences:

The car has been showing a system update error and a message to please see the dealer when started from about 1000miles after I purchased it. I contacted Honda Service Center in Irving over a month ago and they mentioned that Honda is aware of this problem and is working on a solution soon. I have since not been contacted and am having to visit back there almost weekly to get a solution to this. These cars are new and almost entirely automatic and this is becoming an area of concern for my safety as well as my families safety. Over time I have also noticed the automatic break system signaling me to break when there is no obstacle ahead or even in the vicinity. Not to mention that the adaptive cruise control causes a hard break while next to cars in the nearby lanes even when they are not merging or coming within my lines.

Corrective Action:

Defect Description:

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

The Honda Accord LX is equipped with a seven inch audio infotainment screen that does not detect nor capable of having wifi. The car's computer will update through Bluetooth and/or tethering to my phone. After I set up my hondalink and free att wifi(which wifi is on my phone), I went to Honda dealer I bought from and another local technician to speak to them about my phone tethered settings being on no file transfer. At both locations I was told my car does not update through my phone, they looked for a wifi connection in my car, and then asked to see my phone. I thought a recent update had made my engine go to 4rpms without switching gears. I was told where I bought it at that this was not on my cars computer and it did not happen. I have contacted Honda Corp to be told the same that the car does not update through my phone. Hondalink has a locator and engine updates were applied to my car at 8pm on Friday night in my driveway. Bluetooth does not have enough strength to install engine updates.
