2016 Honda Accord Complaints

Spontaneous explosion of sunroof. Today its about 85 degree F. The car was parked for a few hours in the carport. Took it out for a short drive. Approximately 0.5 miles from my home, the sunroof exploded as I was accelerating from a full stop at a red light. It appears to have exploded 'up' (I have photographs), and the glass landed both on top of the car and inside my car. Approximately 15% of the glass separated completely (half on top of the car and half in the passenger area). I have scratches from the glass showering on me. This was completely without warning. I've maintained the outside of the car recently and there has been no damage up until this event.

While driving, the vehicle intermittently emits an extremely loud burst of static through all speakers without warning, even when the audio system is off. The noise is uncontrollable (volume does not respond), and the only way to stop it is to turn the vehicle off. This creates an enormous safety hazard due to the sudden, high-volume noise that startles, distracts, and lastly impairs hearing and situational awareness while driving (especially at highway speeds) The issue occurs intermittently and appears to worsen after the vehicle has been running for some time or upon start up when it is hot outside. Based on similar reports from other owners, this appears to be a widespread defect involving the infotainment/head unit. I love my 2016 honda accord, but I cannot afford to shell out over $1200+ to replace the head unit to fix the problem. Many people are encountering this problem and as widespread as it is, it should have a recall placed on it :(

I've been living with fuel pump issues for a year or so, i must prime the pump, meaning cycle the fuel pump without starting to get the car to start, if not it just cranks and doesn't start, my vehicle year is definitely on the expanded recall list, but for whatever reason my specific VIN doesn't come up on recall list, this is very frustrating as it is very clear my fuel pump is not holding pressure, please also see, 2026 Denso Fuel Pump Settlement warranty extension (15 years/150,000 miles, Service Bulletin 19-016 Is there anyway to help to get me on the list, my car is getting worse and worse and i really need it to get fixed, my VIN is [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I cannot even drive my car anymore, the speakers play non stop static noise that is so loud it scared my child and almost caused me to get into an accident having super sensitive ears. I had to pull over to wait for help. It’s not fair for any of us to have to pay over a grand for a failing head unit caused from poor manufacturing and simply the way the car was designed. Pulling the fuse is the only way to get it to stop but the second you put it back in it starts up again. After pulling the fuse you lose all safety features, back up camera, side camera, parking sensors etc. took my car to a Honda dealer and they told my id have to replace the whole head unit because they fail. It is a known and very common problem that will eventually cause an accident like it almost did me. I do not understand how theirs not a recall when multiple have had the same issue. It’s clearly not users fault.

The engine stop/start system on my 2016 Honda Accord, VIN [XXX], has stalled and shut off without warning in active Los Angeles traffic dozens of times since September 2025. The vehicle loses all power mid-drive with no warning — no dashboard lights, no warning sounds — leaving me unable to accelerate or respond to surrounding traffic. The condition has progressively worsened and now includes repeated no-start failures requiring three documented tows. The component failing is the engine stop/start system. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. My safety and the safety of others hav been put at risk repeatedly. I am a [XXX]. My wife, age [XXX], has [XXX] and has been a passenger during stalling events. Sudden unexpected stalling in active Los Angeles traffic creates immediate foreseeable risk of rear-end collision and loss of vehicle control. This risk has been experienced dozens of times over six and a half months. The problem has been presented to Honda of Hollywood, a...
