2014 Honda Accord Cruise Control Problems

My 2014 Honda has been have 2 major issues over the life of the vehicle. 1. VTC Actuator - prior to the oil indicator light coming on and the time to change the oil, my car screams out a loud consistent noise. I have reported this concern to Team Honda in Baton Rouge on numerous occasions. The most recent repost was on [XXX]. I am concerned my engine will fail or explode. 2. Tires Light Indicator (See Pictures) My tires were check on [XXX] and I spent almost $300 on a new tire. The same light which were on on that day came back on. All 4 of my tires were checked out and 3 out of 4 of them were in good condition. This has also been an ongoing issue. The tire light random come on, then the other 5 (all related) flashed an the dashboard. My first time experiencing this was less than a month after getting my vehicle but the tires was still covered under warranty at that time. By these lights coming on during non-emergencies, the consumer can not identify when the vehicle actually needed to be serviced. Both has been ongoing and reported for years and fed up with these issues. I am surprised they have not issued a recall yet! Thanks for reading this and I look forward to hearing from a Honda representative very soon. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

A strange thing occurred while I was dropping my grandchildren to school on 3/30/22 at 8:45 AM.  After dropping off the kids, as I started the car in the car drop off lane, there was no acceleration despite me hitting the accelerator, the car would not accelerate, and cars exiting the school parking lot backed up behind my car. Suddenly, the car accelerated in an uncontrolled manner on its own, brakes did not work, and all warning lights on the side of the dashboard came on.  I steered the car towards an empty area and was ready to crash it into an obstacle to bring it to a stop.  I tried to put the car in park but despite putting it in park, the car continued its acceleration forward. I also tried to turn off the car by hitting the start/stop button but the car would not turn off. The car accelerated uncontrollably for at least 0.3 miles. After this uncontrolled and automatic acceleration, the car came to a stop. I had the car towed to the Honda dealership. Honda dealership advisor told me that there was no recall on this model.  However, a quick search on car message boards shows that this phenomenon of sudden and uncontrolled acceleration has been reported on 2014, and 2015 and 2016 Honda Accord model year cars as well. Fortunately, no children or their parents in the school were injured this time.   I hope you will direct the Honda dealership to identify and fix the problem.  I am afraid to drive the car without understanding the reason for this frightening experience.  Dealership address is 675 State Avenue Emmaus PA 18049 Phone number 610-965-1365 Associate who is helping me is Michael Paxos

While breaking at slow speed tachometer races to 3000 RPM. After pressing the brake harder speed goes back to normal in a few seconds. This has happened on three different occasions.

WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AT LOW SPEEDS ON CITY STREETS THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST, FORWARD COLLISION WARNING, ANTILOCK BRAKING SYSTEM, LANE DEPARTURE WARNING AND PARKING BRAKE INDICATOR LIGHTS ALL ACTIVATED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED A FAULTY VSA MODULATOR CONTROL UNIT, HONDA PART # 57110-T2G-L02. WHEN WE ATTEMPTED TO ORDER THE PART WE WERE INFORMED THAT THE PART IS BACKORDERED WITH NO EXPECTED RELEASE DATE. THAT WAS JUNE 2, 2020. TODAY IS JUNE 22, 2020 AND I CALLED HONDA AGAIN WITH THE SAME RESULT. I BELIEVE THE WARNING INDICATORS ARE ACCURATELY COMMUNICATING THAT THESE SAFETY SYSTEMS ARE OFFLINE AND AM NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE UNTIL I CAN REPAIR IT. IT SEEMS UNREASONABLE AND UNSAFE THAT HONDA CANNOT PROVIDE A REPLACEMENT FOR SUCH A CRUCIAL SAFETY-RELATED PART. *TR

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR AT 65 MILES PER HOUR, VEHICLE AUTO BRAKED SUDDENLY CAUSING CAR FROM BEHIND TO NEAR MISS MY REAR OF MY VEHICLE. CAR THE ALARMED ON ABS, STABILITY CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE, FORWARD COLLISION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE, BRAKING, POWER STEERING, VEHICLE STABILITY AND HILL START PROBLEM. TOOK CAR TO MIDDLETOWN HONDA OF NY. DEALER IDENTIFIED PROBLEM AS VSA MODULE FAILURE. COST TO REPLACE IS $1550.00 PLUS LABOR. VSA MODULE FAILURE IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE IDENTIFIED AS A SAFETY RECALL. CAR THAT NEARLY HIT ME WAS DRIVEN BY OFF DUTY POLICE OFFICER WHO WAS NOT HAPPY. TOOK CAR IMMEDIATELY TO DEALER FOR SERVICE. DEALER DID NOT HAVE PART TO CORRECT PROBLEM. DEALER DEMANDED THAT CAR REMAIN AT DEALER DUE TO BEING UNSAFE TO DRIVE. DEALER WAS KIND ENOUGH TO GIVE ME A LOANER CAR UNTIL REPAIRS CAN BE MADE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUES!

I WAS SLOWLY MAKING A LEFT TURN INTO AND PULLING INTO A FRONT END IN PARKING SPACE WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE CAR AS ALREADY GOING STRAIGHT INTO THE PARKING SPACE WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED, COULD NOT BE SLOWED DOWN OR STOPPED BY THE BRAKE, JUMPED THE CURB, AND CRASHED INTO THE BUILDING. AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY.

MY TRANSMISSION WENT OUT AT 100K MILES UNCERTAIN WHY BUT ITS OBVIOUSLY A RECALL ON A BAD CAR IM STILL MAKING PAYMENTS AND THE CAR DOESNT WORK THE CAR HAS ENGINE ISSUES AND NO COLD A/C AND MANY OTHER ISSUES I THINK THIS CAR NEEDS TO BE OVERLOOKED AT ITS ONLY BEEN SINCE 2014 TIL 2018 AND THE CAR SHOULD HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES IM SO SAD THAT HONDA LET ME DOWN I OWNED SEVERAL HONDAS IM THE PAST AND I TRUSTED THERE VEHICLE BUT IM NOT HAPPY WITH THIS 2014 HONDA ACCORD SPORT I HOPE THIS ISSUES GETS DOUBT WITH AND HONDA UNDERSTANDS I OWNED HONDA ACCORDS BEFORE MANY OF THEM AND THIS ONE HAS BEEN A LEMON FROM WHAT I SEE NOT A GOOD YEAR FOR HONDA 2014 OR MY CAR WAS A LEMON

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION: CAR STARTED WITHOUT ANY ISSUES, AS I WAS DRIVING A SLOW SPEED DOWN MY DRIVEWAY AS I ATTEMPTED TO STOP BEFORE ENTERING THE STREET, THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD UNDER ACCELERATION. I SHIFTED THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL AND WITH THE ENGINE RACING TO ABOUT 4,000 RPM WITH REV LIMITER CUTTING IN I STOPPED THE CAR WITH THE BRAKE, I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTARTED IN NEUTRAL. ENGINE AGAIN RACED TO 4,000RPM WITH REV LIMITER CUTTING IN. STOPPED ENGINE AGAIN AND RESTARTED A THIRD TIME, THIS TIME ENGINE IDLED NORMALLY AND DROVE WITHOUT INCIDENT. CALLED DEALER, NO RECORDS FROM ANYONE INDICATING A SIMILAR SITUATION.

MY CAR SURGES WHILE DRIVING OCCASIONALLY AND SURGES WHILE STOPPED. I WAS SITTING AT A STOP SIGN WAITING ON TRAFFIC TO PASS BY AND MY CAR SURGED SO HARD THAT IT PUSHED IT OUT A COUPLE INCHES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT THEY CAN NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. READ OTHER COMPLAINTS HERE AND MY CAR ISN'T THE ONLY ONE DOING THIS. I HAVE A 3 YEAR OLD AND NO LONGER FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR.

CAR ACCELERATED WHILE PRESSING THE BRAKE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO THE EXTERIOR WALL OF THE STORE.

WHEN PULLING INTO MY PARKING SPACE AT MY CONDO THE CAR SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AND WENT OVER THE PARKING SPACE CEMENT MARKER, OVER THE SHRUBS AND ONTO SIDEWALK. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO APPLY THE BRAKES HARD ENOUGH TO STOP THE CAR BEFORE CRASHING INTO THE BUILDING. I JUST NICKED THE EDGE OF THE CEMENT DOORWAY LEADING INTO THE WALKWAY TO MY CONDO BUT IT WAS ENOUGH TO CAUSE THE HOOD TO BUCKLE. THERE WAS SOME DAMAGE TO THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE CAR AND THE TOTAL COST OF REPAIR WAS $5500.00. MA 10/14 UPDATED 11/30/2017*CN

5/1/2014HESITATION (UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION) OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY AT LOW SPEED. WHEN THE CAR IS AT A LOW SPEED AND MORE POWER IS NEEDED AND THE ACCELERATOR IS PRESSED THERE IS NO RESPONSE INITIALLY; ACCELERATOR IS THEN PRESSED MORE AND THE CAR THEN ACCELERATES MUCH MORE THAN WAS EXPECTED, RESULTING IN A JERKY, ON/OFF TYPE ACTION. I BELIEVE THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT EITHER WHEN TRYING TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC OR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE GENTLY AND HAVING THE CAR ACCELERATE MORE THAN EXPECTED (IN A PARKING LOT OR HEAVY SLOW TRAFFIC ETC). *TR

MY ACCELERATION CONDITIONS/PROBLEMS ARE IDENTICAL TO NHTSA ID #10607907 & SEVERAL OTHERS. UPON ACCELERATION THERE IS A SEVERE HESITATION TO THE POINT OF ALMOST STALLING BEFORE IT ACCELERATES. AT 15000 MILES IT APPEARS TO BE GETTING WORSE. I WAS ALSO TOLD BY A SERVICE REP THIS WAS COMPUTER CONTROLLED AND NOT CABLE CONTROLLED AS IN THE PAST. THERE DEFINITELY NEEDS TO BE A FIX TO THIS AS IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PULLING OUT IN TRAFFIC. *TR

2014 HONDA ACCORD. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE SUDDEN ACCELERATION. *SMD AS THE CONSUMER WAS TRYING TO PARK THE VEHICLE, WITH HER FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL, AND TOOK OFF ON ITS OWN, EVEN THOUGH HER FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE, AS SHE PULLED INTO A PARKING SPACE. THE VEHICLE CAREENED AT A HIGH SPEED AROUND THE PARKING LOT, JUMPED SEVERAL CURBS, AND SIDE SWIPED THREE OTHER CARS, BEFORE COMING TO A STOP WHEN THREE TIRES BLEW OUT AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WHEEL TURNED PERPENDICULAR TO DIRECTION OF MOTION. THE AXLE BROKE, SO THE VEHICLE ENDED UP TRAVELING ON THE RIM SIDES WITH THE ENGINE STILL RUNNING. *JB
