general problems of the 2013 Honda Accord - part 2

The contact owns a 2013 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the traction control, vehicle stability assist, the low tire pressure, and steering wheel symbols were illuminated. The contact was able to drive the vehicle but was worried that the warnings had indicated a larger mechanical failure with the vehicle. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the abs module and motherboard needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

The car accelerates when I’m trying to brake.

Vsa module failure. Anti lock brakes will not work unless repaired. Honda dealer quoted repair over 2500. 00 dollars. Know issue of poor quality design and use of inferior parts to make module failure imminent.

Abs control module went out, causing all of my dash lights to turn off and on intermittently. On top of that, car isn’t braking properly.

My vehicle currently has the tpms, vsa(stabilty/abs),electric power steering, lane departure warning, and forward collision warning lights are on. I brought my vehicle to a local tire discounters. They scanned for the codes and it brought up the vsa modulator (aka abs module) malfunction. I researched through forums and it is a common issue with Honda abs module. The vsa/abs module has to be replaced due to electrical issues within the module. This could lead to a crash/injury.

The abs module failure all of the dashboard light are on due the a faulty abs module, youtube and other Honda forums reported the same problems. The abs module is poorly designed the connectors are very thin and they break apart with the vehicle vibration, the abs dashboard light, steering control dashboard light, traction control dashboard light,tpms dashboard light all are in the abs module control unit. Honda need to issue a recall for the abs module failing after 35k miles of its vehicles its a safety issue and it should be dressed. Thank you.

Antilock brake system module failure/solenoid causing multiple engine light failure and transmission.

Abs modulator failed.

The abs module has failed. I am receiving warning lights on my dash which caused me to pull off the road. After online research, I discovered this is a common problem with this make/model. So much so, that there is a national backorder for this part. My mechanic says that I can drive the car and the abs system will not work in the event that I might need it. Online forums tell me that the system might activate and cause the brakes to lock up. This seems very unsafe to me and a widespread problem that Honda should address.

My dashboard is lit up like a christmas tree. Went to dealer who found the abs control module went out. The nation is out of this part as it is a common problem. There are several articles on the web that discuss how these have gone out and there is no where to buy the part and is not recalled yet. Abs system will not engage without this which is extremely unsafe. Apparently this is effecting 2013-2107 Accords.

Abs, brake, tcs and psc lights illuminated indicative of vsc modulator failure at 122,000 miles. Dealer stated part needs replacement. Too many issues on this issue to not be addressed by Honda.

The abs module on the vehicle has failed. After searching for the issue online, I have discovered that this is a common problem with several years of Hondas but there has not been a recall of this defective piece of equipment.

All dash lights come on. Fcw system failure. Abs/vsa module failed is what me and a lot of other people with the same car, have the same issues. Abs brake module to replace is $1100 and on backorder and alot of people can't drive there cars, some have had issues that almost caused accidents, mine seems to run fine for now, just started happening. Honda needs to do something about this, way to many people have this problem and Honda should be way more reliable and helpful for this common failure.

Vsa modulator is faulty causing the abs system to fail. Honda dealerships are telling customers it is safe to drive.

The abs modulator assembly vsa for my Honda Accord lx-s coupe is failing. My dashboard has several lights on the dash indicating an issue with abs system. A mechanic (russell & smith Honda) in houston, TX inspected my car on Wednesday, June 7 and indicated that the abs system needs to be replaced. The abs modulator needs to be recalled because the wiring inside the modulator is incredibly thin. This is the only module that is failing and has this type of wiring thus creating a broken circuit. Honda should have instead created a circuit board with thicker wiring and act as a connector itself. Honda should be held responsible to creating a safer abs modulator. This is a major safety concern as it affects thousands of people owning this vehicle and increases the likelihood of a brake malfunction. This can cause accidents and it is a costly fix for consumers. I am requesting a recall on this part.

No accident to report. Just feel the vsa brake modulator part should be a Honda recall. Mine has failed… and I see online that the connector wires are too thin, and this vsa brake modulator is a widespread problem in Honda Accords from 2012-17. All the dashboard warning lights kick on. Anti skid, fcw, abs!.

For no known reason numerous warning lights appeared on dashboard (steering, ldw, fcw failure, brakes, low tire pressure). Power steering completely stopped working. It appears abs, lane departure warning and forward collision warning systems all stopped working. Glad this happened to me and not my wife. It is her car. Dangerous as heck!.

Several dashboard lights came on. Electric steering ,tire pressure sensor, traction control, abs, brake lights. Paid 300 dollar diagnostic fee for Honda dealer to tell me this is a known issue on Hondas and would cost 3,000 dollars to repair. Final verdict, abs module needs replacement. Also seems to be causing issues with the transmission shift points due to the vehicle speed sensor having an error with code p-0717 input shaft speed error. Upon doing research, the mother board connections from connector to the motherboard are very thin and lose connection over time causing safety issues since it's unknown if the abs is working correctly with the fault lights on, also the tire pressure is not currently monitored correctly due to the light is always on among other monitored systems that have lights illuminated on the dashboard.

Abs light, steering, tire pressure and traction light came on while I was parked the dash just lit up when I went to the mechanic he said the same car between 13-16 he has gotten 12 different complaints since week only when checked all came up as faulty abs module.

The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 140,000.

The abs module has failed on my 2013 Honda Accord lx. The abs system may not function properly in reducing braking distances and could cause the car to slide in wet or slippery conditions increasing the chances of a collision or loss of vehicular control while driving. The car was taken to a Honda specialist and upon inspection, the vehicle was diagnosed to have a faulty abs module. The quoted repair was in excess of $2000 usd. The abs, power steering, tpms check tire, traction control warning lights are all on indicating an issue with aforementioned faulty abs module. The warning lights all appeared simultaneously in February, 2023. Diagnostics were run and all error codes indicated a faulty abs (vcs) module.

Hello I'm wondering why this is not a concern for a safety recall. Vsa module. The vsa module systems seems to be a problem from 2012 all the way to 2017 model Hondas. This module effects powersteering. Abs. Tire pressure and traction control. It seems that this is a global problem and their are countrys that have done a recall on this vsa module. On Honda Accord sedans.

Abs control module failure at 174712 diagnosed and replaced by licensed independent service center. Cost $450. 00 power steering failure at 188,000. Still with independent service center. Estimated repair cost $900. 00 earlier engine replacement required as well with no warning, proper maintenance.

Since 2022 I have been having abs brake modulator problem. Dealer said it will cost $1700. I have noticed 80% of Honda customers have complained about this to Honda manufacturer but they are refusing to fix it.

All light came on abs brake traction.

The abs module went out. The vehicle has 80k original miles and less than 10yrs old. I had to spend over $1200 to get it fixed. This a safety issue and definitely needs to have a recall.

The abs module has failed on this car. Upon a lot of research, I have found that a lot of people are stating they have had this same issue with their Honda Accords within a few years before and after. This is a $1700 fix from Honda that most people are not going to be able to afford and a lot of people are having problems with. . . . . The part is also on a nationwide backorder which to me seems like they have surely had to replace a lot of them. . . . . I believe that this should be investigated for a recall. I spoke with someone at Honda and they also agreed that this should be looked at for a recall. This could be very dangerous to have failing abs systems on vehicles. Research on forums where people discuss this will show that this is a common problem and a recall should be considered.

The abs modulator has failed. It is available for inspection for $120 at the dealer which does not go towards the repair. I went to an independent shop and was told that they can't figure out the problem because of the complex computer system in Hondas. I then had it inspected at Honda and was told I need to replace the modulator for $1650 parts and labor. The abs system including the front collision warning and lane departure warning are no longer reliable. If I put off the repair I am at risk of the antilock brake system failing and the brakes locking up, the stability and traction control not working, and the brake pedal may become unresponsive over time. There are 5 warning lights that come on intermittently. This has been happening for the last year. This is a defective part and an ongoing problem for 2013-2015 Honda owners with many forums discussing the issue. It can occur with any amount of mileage on the car so that doesn't seem to be a factor.

Intermittent activation of vehicle stability assist, electrical power steering, and tire pressure monitoring system lights. Diagnosed as yaw rate sensor failure requiring replacement of anti-lock braking system modulator.

All the lights are basically on the 2013 Honda Accord ex which includes the brake, abs, tps. I noticed that even when I have not pressed the brakes, the brakes are applied by the car. Expecially in low/idle speeds. This results in me habving to press the gas pedal and results in a rough ride. I took the car into the dealer today 4/1/2021. Dealer states the car has a faulty vsa modulator and quoted $1400 for the part (57110-t2fa17) and $510 for the labor. Also said the they need to bleed the brake fluid and replace it. And this same part was replaced back on 11/5/2014. This car is not part of any active recall, but the vsa modulator has now failed twice. The car was purchased brand new 4/20/2013. Searching online shows Honda recalled several other models and years for the vsa modulator. I have attached some of other recalls that affected the vsa modulator.

My car abs system proplem.

The traction control, brake, power steering and fcw error lights come on while driving. The message states "fcw failed". This happens while driving, parked and on all road surfaces. Even while parked in the garage. All lights come on at the same time. The come on as the vehicle gets to normal operating temperature.
