Touch screen on console has lots of ghost-touches in warm weather operating conditions. The audio screen keeps switching from FM to USB MP3 player, and goes into settings or prompts for factory reset while driving, and without touching it. Also, Android AutoPlay navigation keeps jumping around on the map, and giving excessive warnings for next turn, without touching it. This is an EXTREME driver distraction, esp. while trying to use navigation. Local dealer was not able to reproduce in their shop on a cool day. They told me they had 12 other complaints of this issue, and no fix available from Honda, as of Oct. 2025.

Honda is using cheap brake pads/rotors on their cars. I was parked and went in reverse and the brake pads started squealing so loudly, something didn’t seem right. I’ve never heard this sound before and my family hasn’t either who’ve owned many cars before. I took it to the dealership and they were able to reproduce the sound. They said nothing could be done even though the brake pads are too thick. This seems to happen when it’s humid, raining or cold. The dealership didn’t really care but this seems like a hazard. I’ve read on forums and researched online that this is a very common issue and nothing is being done to fix it. A recall should be issue because this can be a road hazard.

Purchased 2022 Honda Hybrid Touring new rear tires with only 32000 miles completely destroyed by cupping to the interior started noticing significant wobble to rear on highway. Many forums discussing this issue with other Honda Accords this could result in a blow out at speed, many forums people have replaced tires some up to three sets a year somethings wrong and this could result in a fatal collision if left unsolved. I am diligent with tire inflation pressure and inspecting tires this is concerning have not seen tires wear out this fast. Has to be a rear suspension defect for many people to be experiencing this all you have to do is google the issue.

Vehicle has had safety warning since February 2023. Parts required have been on “back order” with dates continually changing and moving out and dealership or Honda not able to resolve the issue or determine when repairs can be made. Current parts estimated shipment has moved to September 2023. Online search to attempt to purchase parts from Factory direct or any other location return a “part discontinued” listing with no replacement. Part numbers at issue to resolve safety issue are Honda part numbers 39680TZAJ01YE and 39680TZAJ01ZE. This leaves me with a vehicle that has diminished safety features and Honda not able to provide any realistic dates for a solution.

I have been driving for over 30 years and have never had a windshield. Have a crack in it and now with this car. In less than two years, I have about six cracks in my windshield, which i've had to repair. I have also had serious problem with the car.Automatically braking with adaptive cruise control where there's no one in front of me, but the car just breaks for no reason.
