general problems of the 2010 Honda Accord - part 1

Electronic throttle actuator, gas pedal assembly failed. As I accelerated the gas pedal failed in the position against the firewall and could not be pulled up. The vehicle increased speed on its own and brakes did not work. The spedd continued to increase. I had the vehicle towed to cardinal Honda 860-449-0411 in groton connecticut. Polise were on sight on the highway after I pulled over in neutral. No other way to stop the car. The car in in the shop and awaiting the new part. There was not indication in the dash panel that the electronic throttle actuator needed to be looked at. It was a sudden failure.

I bought my car in March of 2023 3 months later my ball joint broke & knocked out my axle which caused damage to my car my warranties didn’t cover the damage to my car nor the axle or ball I had to pay out of pocket for a tow truck not only that I had to pay to get it fixed. I’m still having trouble with my car & the dealer hasn’t did anything to fix my problem.

Abs system suddenly failed. Cost of repair exceeds $3,000, largely due to huge cost of the part itself which can only be purchased from Honda.

E brake failed three times since owning car in 8 years. Rear left brake rotor stuck brake pads burning replaced 4 times in 8 years is this much recurrence dangerous?.

The contact owns a 2010 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, there was an abnormally loud sound coming from the engine. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic and diagnosed with a power train, catalytic converter, and anti-lock braking system (abs) failure. The vehicle was then taken to another mechanic and diagnosed with a power train and bearing wear failure. The contact was informed that the power train needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The contact related the failure to NHTSA campaign number: 11v395000 (power train) however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was 129,000.

Driving at highway speed with cruise set at 60; braked & slowed to exit onto another road; when manually accelerating to get up to speed initially the car didn't respond to acceleration. Suddenly it took off out of control, as if the cruise resume was hit (it wasn't) and the brakes were non-responsive for several seconds. Acceleration continued until reaching over 70 mph. Not only were brakes non-responsive but the car was difficult to handle. I purchased this car new and it is immaculately maintained. This was my first incident and was very scary.

Abs/ airbag system staying on and it appears to be affecting charging system issues and/or alternator! diagnostic test show abs & charging system issues. My car is now inoperable!!.

Tl the contact owns a 2010 Honda Accord. While driving approximately 50 mph, the vehicle accelerated unintendedly. The contact attempted to apply the brakes, but the vehicle did not stop and crashed into a concrete post. The side air bags deployed, but the front air bags did not.

I called Honda customer to report a problem due to constant check engine lights and to get my car checked with a recall notice . They told me I will charged to see whether my is eligible for the recall notice and told my check engine problem cannot be checked out since my mfg warranty expired since it is only good for 6 yrs from the year of manufactured date and not the sold date . I bought my car 2011 so my warranty is still valid , but for whatever reason they are going by mfg date and sold date.

During a recent inspection, I was told that my brakes barely passed and would only last approximately another 3,000 miles. I have 17,000 miles on my Honda! I inherited this car last year from my uncle who passed. He purchased the car new in 2010 and put less than 4,000 miles on it in 4 years. I heard there was a problem with the brakes of certain years on Accords, including the one I have. I was also told that Honda would fix this as a courtesy to owners because there were so many complaints. In 2015, this is no longer an option. At no point has Honda recalled the vehicle. How can they get away with putting such cheap products on a vehicle that costs more than 30k? this is a lawsuit waiting to happen. I will fight this and make such a big stink until this problem is cleared. At no point should I have to pay to replace brakes at 17,000 miles. This is absurd. What can I do at this point?.

The traction control devise is malfunctioning. . .

My car sped up while I was driving and I could not stop it.

When I went to apply the brakes to stop at an intersection, the brake pedal was hard and brakes did not work at all. If it is under 20 degrees outside, this happens when the car is first driven after sitting for awhile. I am now looking at replacing the brake booster and check valve. This is a major safety concern because I do not know if my car will stop or not when I am driving. After doing some research, Honda had recalled previous years models for this same issue, but there is not a recall for this particular model year. Several people in forums are complaining of the same issues. Perhaps yet another class action lawsuit is in order for.

The contact owns a 2010 Honda Accord. The contact stated that the brakes were applied in extremely cold weather but the brake pedal would not respond. The pedal was resistant to being depressed, which was a recurring failure when there was snow or extremely cold weather. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer for diagnostic test, who stated that the brake booster valve was defective and needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was alerted of the failure and declined to provide any assistance. The vehicle was repaired. The failure mileage was 70,000.

Rotors went bad at 40k miles.

The rear brake started making noise. When I checked at the repair shop they told me that I need to have the rear brake replaced. The total cost I was told was $ 305. 66. The car was approximately driven - 26500 miles that too under normal conditions, mostly on highways.

I found that Honda Accord has recalls. I got my oil change in April/may - 2013 for my Honda Accord and Honda dealer found everything good and brakes were close to 8 (on the brake measuring scale) on all the wheels. In just 2 months, the rear brake started making noise and then I came across the Honda Accord brake recall issue. Now I have got the repair done and sent the details to Honda. Honda is denying the reimbursement saying that my car does not fall in the recall category (they have selected some vins which meets those conditions). My question is how Honda can decide which vins have the problems and which does not have until people report them. Anyway, I am very unhappy with Honda about not reimbursing this repair cost.

The rear brakes prematurely wear out. I have had to replace the rear brakes twice. First at 23000 miles and again at 53000 miles.

Rear brakes diagnosed by Honda as "requiring immediate attention" due to excessive wear. This with only 21810 miles. Honda claims wear is at the "low end of average. " I feel wear is extremely premature. Honda claims no mechanical manfunction contributed to the wear and repairs are not covered by warranty. This vehicle has a normal mix of highway and town driving with very little city driving.

Tl- the contact owns a 2010 Honda Accord. While at the dealer for routine maintenance the technician stated the rear brakes would have to be replaced because of wear. The vehicle was repaired. The contact stated the brakes wore out prematurely. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a complaint was filed. The approximate failure mileage was 20,169. Da.

Car stearing wheel jerks and shakes when breaking at 65 mph due to break rotors went bad at 23000 miles dealer reserfaced the rotors for free as one time goodwil jester problem came back after 3000 miles. It is a re-occuring problem where consumer has to replace rotors every few thousand miles.

Went to Honda dealer for regular service at 25000 miles. Was told I needed rear brakes replaced and flushed. $200 for the brake replacement and $170 for the flush. Seems very early to have this service done. The car is still under warranty but was not covered.

At around 25k miles, my Honda Accord began making loud screeching noises. After taking it to the repair shop, they said that my rear brakes were gone and needed to be replaced. This is completely ridiculous for the mileage I have driven. I did some research and found that many other people are having the same exact issue with premature wear in their rear brakes. In fact, there was a Honda settlement for '08-'09 Accords (and a few '10s) where they gave partial reimbursements for brake replacements. However, Honda refuses to admit any wrongdoing and claims that this issue has been resolved in all vehicles thereafter. This is obviously a lie and they need to take responsibility for this continuing design failure. They need to pay for brake pad replacements and/or truly offer a fix for what causes the premature wear.

At 42k miles, brake wear indicator began to indicate premature wear on left rear wheel. I know this was a problem with 2008-2009 and some 2010 models, figured it should have been fixed when I received mine.

Bought my 2010 Honda Accord v6 exl new. At 45,000 miles the car experienced extreme shaking of the steering wheel and shuddering of the whole car when the brakes were applied at a speed of 70mph while on a trip. This was occurring whether the brakes were very lightly applied or more firmly applied. A repair shop said the rear rotors and rear brakes were needing to be replaced. The repair was performed and it reduced the symptoms by about 90%. Now last week on another trip, the car began experiencing the exact same symptoms as it had prior to the 45000 mile repair. I have an appointment at the originating Honda dealer on July 5th to address the problem. The over the phone speculation by the service advisor is "it's the front rotors". These are expensive repairs but more important, the condition is dangerous when it happens. Few things are more important than the brakes!.

The rear brakes are worn in under 10,000 miles.

Applied brakes on freeway at 70 mph to exit ramp,steering wheel started to vibrate . My 2010 Honda crosstour has approx. 16000 miles. Vehicle is unstable when this occurs.

I had just dropped my child off at school and was in line to leave the school parking lot. I was very slowly moving forward as cars would leave. I was moving slowly when all of a sudden my car quickly accelerated and would not stop regardless of me hitting the brakes. I ended up hitting the car in front of me. This all happened so fast. No injuries but very scary.

Rear brakes on 2010 Honda Accord are almost "metal on metal". This should not take place with a car that is less than 2 years old with only 17,500 miles.

Had to replace rear brakes at 21,837 miles costing $212. 81. My VIN not part of settlement but there is obviously still an issue with Honda brakes. Would like to be informed of any investigations or lawsuits. I am seeing many complaints on this site with no defect investigations?.

When I took the car for servicing to the open road Honda (rt 1s) in NJ, they told me that the wear and tear on the rear break pad is heavy and it needs to be replaced. I drove the car mostly highways during my previous job for most of the miles and I didn't even apply much breaks and now the dealer is saying that the rear break pad is gone and it needs to be replaced. However the front pad is as good as new. How can it be ?. I came to know that there is a class action suit with Honda on this subject, but it seems they're covering only a certain few VIN number, this is total absurdity, if the breaking system is failing for any / all models of Honda, it should be considered.

Needed rear brakes at 21189 miles.

Premature wear brakes, both front and rear, excessive noise.
