2019 Honda Accord Powertrain & Transmission Problems

Head gasket failure was diagnosed by a certified dealer. The only symptom leading up to the failure was slight hesitation when starting the vehicle. Safety issues include sudden engine power loss, engine fire, overheating, and reduced visibility from thick white smoke, and the potential loss of steering or braking power.

City street driving speed < 35-40 mph, engine began rough idling at stop light after traveling just 1/8 mile. After driving less than 1 mile on level ground, engine slowed and would not accelerate above 20 mph. After another mile or so, increasing uphill grade caused speed to slow to 12-14 mph. Stepping on gas caused car to slow down even more, with shaking and jerky stop-start of vehicle. Maintaining 10-12 mph permitted vehicle to continue uphill climb for a few more miles so I could reach home. Downhill coasting was smooth with no gas pedal acceleration. Overnight parked in garage, and no problems driving vehicle to local independent auto mechanic. They were able to duplicate problem after 2 days and multiple test drives. Diagnosed permanent and temporary engine codes: misfires of cylinders 1 and 4 with ignition coil malfunction, misfires of cylinders 1, 2, 4, and random misfires. Also permanent codes: antilock brake ECM Failure, electric power steering vehicle stability assist System Malfunction, electric servo brake electric power train System Malfunction. Mechanic removed coils and spark plugs, found cylinder 4 has moisture. Coils, plugs cleaned and re-installed. Honda Dealer unable to duplicate problem after 3 days.

This needs to be addressed. EVERYONE knows NOW that there is a high incidence of Head Gasket failure with Honda. The Honda head gasket class action lawsuit includes the following vehicles if equipped with 1.5-liter or 2.0-liter i-VTEC turbocharged gasoline direct injection engines: 2018-2022 Honda Accord 2016-2022 Honda Civic 2017-2022 Honda CR-V 2021-2022 Acura RDX 2019-2022 Acura TLX I got an "approximate cost" for a head gasket repair on a 2019 Honda Accord, of $3000 from the Honda dealer after previously getting a $3559 from an independent. The dealer just came back to me with an estimate of $5781.32. I check reliability ratings before ever buying a car. It's a Honda! If they are not willing to do the right thing, maybe they should be made to? This NEEDS to be a recall. Do you even know how many Americans have been affected by this? Including those that haven't complained or reported it?

I bought this car and after only owning it for eight months, as I was driving down the freeway, every light on my dashboard lit up, and my car slowed down. I was able to pull to the side of the road, but I could no longer drive my car home and I was commuting. Since the first incident, I have repaired my car having the coil repaired spark plugs, and regular maintenance in the last eight months that I have owned the car and now my turbo charger needs to be replaced. I took it into two different mechanic shops. My car is only at 130K miles this should not be causing an issue with a Honda now I cannot find anyone to repair it without costing me $2000 plus.

After the vehicle misfiring , kept changing spark plugs and coil , as well the vehicle shutting over while driving on the highway , having to get it towed and then finally able to get to dealership , Honda said the head gasket failed , so after the head gasket replacement and getting it fixed for $5K, it started to make a noise rattling , took it back to dealership and they said it was the Turbo when I took it back to dealership , they said it was failing , it was not making a noise until after head gasket replacement . The dealer said the turbo messing up wasnt from head gasket replacement , but I’m very aware it’s possible and there was absolutely no noise before replacement of head gasket !

My son was driving home from work when car suddenly went into limp mode with check engine light and all other safety light came on the dash. Driving around 50mph and my son nearly collided with multiple cars as the became hard to steer and brakes unreliable. Luckily no one was hurt this time. Car has 83k miles. was taken to the dealer and diagnostics run and provided with a $5000. repair to replace the head gasket due to coolant leaking into cylinder #3 causing misfires. I have reached out to Honda of America with the issue.

While driving ~40 mph call all of a sudden lost power in middle of busy street, was not able to steer or drive (pedals weren't working to provide power). I pulled off to side and saw check engine light blinking and warning message pop up about Brake system not working. I turned the car off then turned it back on and worked normally and was able to drive home.

Emission system control error please see your dealer do not accelerate at high speeds, ACC control, module error, brake system failure, error, lane control, assistance, failure, numerous lights illuminate on dashboard 7 to 10 error codes all at once. Vehicle was taken to Diagnosed and found turbo Charger for engine acceleration was faulty, spark plugs changed, 4 coils and cam shift sensors2 total. Over $3000 later, the vehicle is still doing the same mention above, including when stopped and acceleration at slow or high speeds vehicle jerks. Only 158,000 miles on a 2019 all fluids have been serviced and changed on time with no leaks.

All the lights came on on the car, took it to get looked at they stated it was the turbocharger I spent $2500 to get it replaced and yet all the lights are still on-automatic headlights don’t work and the infotainment system keeps cutting out-like glitching. According to the Honda representative at the dealership, this year model has had alot of issues and several cars in the last month alone have replaced turbochargers and had to come back and get an entire motor! This is highway robbery if the cars themselves weren’t put together correctly from the manufacturer. This needs to be looked into as I’m having to shell out thousands of dollars for a defective car. My [XXX] drives this vehicle and I don’t know what to do as the dealership charges $190 for every diagnostic test and to not have an answer is frustrating. All I’m hearing is several cars this year are horribly made. This needs to be investigated and resolved. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6

While driving my 2019 Honda Accord at approximately 65 mph on the highway, the car suddenly lost power, went into limp mode, and the steering wheel locked up. I was unable to turn or control the vehicle, which resulted in another car crashing into me. I sustained injuries in the accident and required medical attention. The incident was extremely dangerous and could have been fatal. After being towed to Russell & Smith Honda, they confirmed a blown head gasket was the cause of the failure. This issue is already the subject of a class-action lawsuit due to known design flaws in the 1.5T engine. Honda only offered partial assistance, leaving me responsible for thousands in repair costs. This vehicle is unsafe and needs to be investigated immediately.

I’ve had 2 readings one from Honda and one from a different mechanic shop. One reads bad fuel injectors from the mechanic shop and the other from the Honda dealership reads bad turbo. All lights on my dash board. I didn’t have any lights on before my fuel pump was replaced due to that recall and now my dash board looks like Christmas lights.

I am reporting a failed recall remedy. Honda was unable to provide parts for Recall 23V-858 for over a year. Operating the vehicle during this delay resulted in engine starvation, overheating, and a catastrophic cylinder head gasket failure. The dealer and manufacturer are now refusing to cover the consequential damage caused by their own delay.

I had the recall fixed on the vehicle and the emissions light still comes on and throw all the other lights on. It also jerks I had the engine light check and it still saying power loss

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Accord. The contact stated while driving approximately 70 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. The contact was able to pull over to the shoulder of the roadway and the vehicle was towed by a family member to the contact's residence. The vehicle was diagnosed by an independent mechanic, and it was determined that the pump kit had failed and needed to be replaced. The local dealer was contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 24V214000 (Power Train) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available.

My 2019 Honda Accord showed 10 warning lights. I took it to the dealer and they advised my fuel injectors were running hot and misfiring. Requiring the replacement of one injector totaling almost $2000The vehicle only has 65,000 miles. Though the vehicle seemed drivable, I had no idea if it would just stop running, and it required immediate intervention.

I drove my 2019 Honda Accord EX-L from my house, about ¼ mile, to a stop light. I noticed that the outside temperature readout on the dash, which started out at 28 degrees, was rapidly rising. By the time the light turned green, the outside temp read 42. After driving several hundred feet the readout dropped back to 28 degrees. After traveling about 1 mile more, at either the next or 2nd red light I came to, while idling, I noticed the car was vibrating. I put the car in neutral, raised the engine speed slightly, and the vibrations went away. I placed the transmission back into drive, and when I went to accelerate, the car would not go faster than about 10 MPH, and the “malfunction indicator light” came on. I was able to make a U turn and head back towards home. Even at 3000 RPM the car was going about 10 MPH, but I noticed if I took my foot off the accelerator, as the RPM’s were winding down, it was like the transmission engaged just a little, enough to speed up an MPH or two. If I gave it gas again, I was back to about 10 MPH max. I limped back to my home, and had to leave with my other car for an appointment. While I was away, my wife heard the Honda’s horn in our driveway continuously honking. She went to the Honda and when she grabbed the driver side handle, the honking stopped. That afternoon I had the car towed to Troy Honda. When they drove it, it worked fine, and they got no hits when they scanned the computer. I picked up the car without the problem found or solved. The service manager said without it acting up on their test drive and nothing showing up on the computer, there was nothing they could do. How can the malfunction indicator light come on, and then leave no code to be read? This is definitely a safety issue. This problem could be deadly if it happens, for example, when I am in the middle lane on an interstate. At the least this problem could leave me stranded who knows where. This is serious. This is dangerous. In my opinion
