| Jul 2025 | LANE DEPARTURE,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE | I bought this 2019 Honda Accord on June 30th from a company called Greenville Motor Company. July 1st, I took the car to the Honda dealership to get a diagnostic to make sure everything was in good shape. The technician I spoke with did notice the car & stated that it had a problem with the previous owner which was the Injectors. She told me that the light may not come on now but it may come on in the future. After I left the Honda dealership, I went to Greenville Motor Company & showed them the diagnosis I had done at Honda. He said he didn't see anything wrong. On July 2nd, all of my dashboard lights came on. Took it back to Greenville Motor Company, the tech there said I could pick it up July 3rd & drive it over the weekend. (basically he reset the lights so they wouldn't come on for a certain period of time).Within this time period I took it back to the Honda dealer & they told me that I also needed a turbo, they gave me the printout for that as well. Took it to Greenville Motor Company, they agreed that I did. need a turbo. Manager says he ordered turbo. I I don't remember the date I took it back but on July 12th, my dash lights came on again. I took it back to Greenville Motor Company July 14th, July 18th Greenville Motor Company called & said something on top of the turbo wasn't screwed on thats what was triggering the turbo code to show, so he never put on the turbo that he ordered I had it 2 hours & my dash lights came on again. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE,LANE DEPARTURE | All warning lights turn on on the dash board. I replaced the battery, airbag module, and ABS module and I'm still having the same issue | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
| Jul 2025 | ENGINE | Took my accord into service due to engine light warning, vibration on start up and to get the recall fixed. Was informed that my head gasket was misfiring and needed to be replaced, and was quoted $4515.37. The vehicle had been well maintained and low mileage at 72,000. This seems to be an issue with the 1.5 Turbo from 2018 to 2022 based on the online research. I decided to trade my vehicle in for a new one, but received $3500 less on trade in due to the bad head gasket. I'm also concerned about the safety hazard this could potentially have been. My daughter has a 2020 accord. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |

Sometimes it is the battery, the alternator, the head gasket, the ECM, injectors….the list goes on and on. Sometimes the repair fixes the issue, but based on research, the issue typically comes back shortly after the service department throws another part at the problem. | Crash: No Fire: No | 80,468 |

| Jun 2025 | ENGINE | NHTSA Vehicle Safety Complaint Vehicle: 2019 Honda Accord 1.5T Engine: 1.5-liter Turbocharged (L15B7) Mileage at Failure: 88,000 miles Issue: Blown Head Gasket / Coolant Leak / Engine Stalling Summary of the Problem: At approximately 88,000 miles, my 2019 Honda Accord 1.5T began exhibiting signs of a coolant leak and engine performance issues. After diagnosis by a certified mechanic, it was confirmed that the head gasket had failed, causing coolant to leak into the engine. This led to overheating and a dangerous engine stall while I was in active traffic, posing a serious safety risk. Safety Concern: The vehicle stalled unexpectedly in traffic due to the head gasket failure, putting me and surrounding drivers at risk of a crash. A blown head gasket can cause sudden overheating, misfires, and loss of power, all of which jeopardize the safe operation of the vehicle. This occurred without any warning lights or prior symptoms, making it even more dangerous. Repair Cost: The repair for the blown head gasket and associated engine work cost me $3,800 out of pocket, despite the vehicle being well maintained and relatively low mileage for this type of failure. Maintenance & Vehicle History: The car was serviced regularly according to Honda’s recommended schedule. There were no prior signs of overheating or misuse. The stall happened suddenly, requiring the vehicle to be pushed to safety to avoid blocking traffic. Wider Problem Indication: This issue appears to be widespread among 2019–2021 Honda Accords with the 1.5T engine. Many owners report similar head gasket failures, indicating a potential defect in the engine’s design, materials, or thermal management. Requested Action: I respectfully request that the NHTSA investigate this issue as a safety-related defect, and that Honda be required to issue a recall, extended warranty, or reimbursement program to address these premature and dangerous failures. | Crash: No Fire: No | Unknown |
