Automatic Emergency Braking problems of the 2014 Honda Accord

There is a common problem with the vsa module failing on Honda's and there is no mfg recall. I believe there should be.

Abs module failure. Im sure this issue has been mentioned multiple times, but it is a known issue that the Honda Accord's (2014 range models) abs module circuit board have improperly sized wires that are soldered on the circuit board. This can cause a lot of issues especially when driving in the snow and/or rain since the abs system is faulty. . Read more...

My dashboard is lit up with lights . . Abs,break vehicle skid control, and steering wheel . I need a new abs control module I am told I have 178,000 the breaks are new, but now making a funny nose. Including shaking and vibrating and squeeking in my driver side wheel. The driver wheel makes a clunking noise only when the lights turn on. And breaks seem to be acting weird. . When lights come on my steering wheel also makes weird noise when turning.

Abs module failing and causing abs sensor, tps sensor, powersteering sensor and hand brake light turn on. Very dangerous when you meed abs in action. When I research almost all cars from 2014 having this issue. Honda must recall this car to replace abs module.

I received a diagnosis from Honda dealership today that my 2014 vehicle has a failed vsa modulator which regulates brakes and all abs features. They stated it was only from wear and tear on my vehicle. I am only at 109,000 miles. They quoted me a price of $3000. 00 to fix the problem and noted I could not pick up my car without signing a statement that I understood the problem and understood that my brakes would eventually fail without fixing the problem. I cannot currently afford to fix the problem or safely drive my vehicle.

Abs module failed, affects the braking system. Problem confirmed by mechanic. Braking lights on dash all lit up including the "ldw failure" and "fcw failure" message on the dashboard. The dashboard warning lights go on and off (not constant, but every time I drive).

The vsa module all lights are on the dash . This is a common issue in all 2010-2019 Honda Accords.

Hello, the abs and traction control lights of my car came on a few weeks ago. I took it to the dealer and they did a diagnostics and they said it is a faulty/bad abs (vsa) module (computer). Thee car has fairly low mileage and I did not expect the car to have any serious safety issue at around 65000 miles. The dealer told me the part costs about $1500 and the labor is $600. It is too much for me too afford and it is a safety issues at the same time. When I did a bit of online research I saw it is a popular issue for Honda owners and a lot of them complain and suffer about it. It reveals that Honda has a design flaw with any abs/vsa module. Apparently the module is not designed to tolerate the operating condition of the car (vibration, temperature. . . ) and it gets faulty after a few years or some thousand miles. It is very popular. I could provide evidence of it based on my online research. Some Honda owners apparently try to reset the computer and turn of the light (mask the issue) since it is very costly to replace the part but they do not understand the safety impact it has on the passengers. Apparently Honda is ware of its design flaw too but because of the large cost of this module tries to deny or hide it. If you do online research on Honda Accord or civic (all Accord and civic after 2011, 2012) abs or vsa module/modulator issues you will see bunch of it. It is a popular issue which needs a bigger action. Since it is safety and it is Honda's design flaw I wanted to report it to you. Please investigate this safety issue further. It might end up being a recall due to safety and since some owners ignore or reset it due to the very high cost. Please help. It is very costly to fix it as you see and I do not want to pay since the vehicles is fairly low millage and it is a Honda's design flaw. You don't see this issue on internet with toyotas or nissans.

The vsa abs modulator failed, and it will be available for inspection upon request. The failure of this causes the abs system to not work along with traction control. The vehicle was taken to a mechanic that pulled the codes and then taken for an estimate to the Honda dealer who confirmed the issue with the modulator. There are 4 warning lights in addition to the "fcw system failed" message on the dash. The abs light, traction control, fcw, and tire pressure indicator lamps all display and cannot be cleared. The fcw system failed message cannot be cleared to be able to see other maintenance that is due such as an oil change or to view current mileage. The message and warning lights just popped up unexpectedly while pulling into to parking spot. For a brief time, the steering wheel would shake while driving making it appear that there was another issue, but there was not.

Automatic breaking system activated upon approaching overhead signs and metal type overpasses. This caused the vehicle to reduce speed significantly on highways and toll roads. Issue not inspected or confirmed by any garage or dealer as it’s random and hard to duplicate. Brake warning and collision lights activate upon false detection. Issue has been occurring randomly since we purchased vehicle. Dealer identified no recall for system issue.

Constant error warning �fcw system failed� pops up while driving, many dash error lights turn on, and all abs and vsa systems are deactivated. System usually resets when car restarted but the error happens again within a few minutes of driving. Took car to dealer, who diagnosed it as vsa modulator unit is defective and needs to be replaced. While this is a very expensive part and disappointing that a critical safety system would fail this early in the car's life (my car only has 58,000 miles), amazingly there are no replacement units available in the USA, and this part has been back ordered by Honda for at least a month, with no resolution date. So I cannot have the system fixed because Honda doesn't have any vsa modulators anywhere in the USA. This issue seems to be increasing in frequency especially in the v6 Accords like mine. Is Honda out of the part because so many vsa modulators are starting to fail? it seems like a major safety issue that my car has no abs or vsa system working while driving, and Honda is also unable to offer a fix since the part is not available.
