Car shit down on me. Ran obd report and threw a misfire cylinder 4 p0304. Head gasket has to be replaced.

American Honda motors CO is recalling Honda Accord turbos for fuel pump failure. Mine 2019 Honda Accord 1. 5 turbo failed high-pressure fuel pump on 8/12/2026 and miami lakes Honda service center charged me to replace the high-pressure fuel pump. I requested Honda corporation the reimbursement and the refused because they say it's caused by cranking the vehicle, they let me know I can't crank/start the vehicle because it damages the pump (I have the email they sent me for confirmation. ) and repair invoice as well. Also, the car has been smelling gasoline, the pump developed cracks in the solenoid core, which lead to fuel leaks, fuel smell while idling or driving, and an increased risk of fire, crash, or injury. I'm just requesting the reimbursement.

All the safety dashboard lights are on, what is the problem? I need this situation to be fixed ASAP, it doesnt even let me drive, it loses power and the battery is brand new.

The car was driving fine and then all of the dashboard lights came on. The car wouldn’t drive faster than 20 mph. The dealership said it was a head gasket and injector problem. They quoted me $6000.

Vehicle started sputtering, then all the engine lights came on. The car felt like it did not want to drive. Took it to the dealer for diagnosis. Dealer reported that the head gasket needed to be replaced. He stated that this is a known issue but that Honda has not issued a recall. The car only has $100,000 miles. Dealer said to call american Honda to see if they would give any "good will" money. They declined.

2019 Honda Accord, the transmission is failing, slipping gears, delayed or harsh shifting, unusual noises, warning lights on, transmission or check engine light illuminate, signaling potential issues, fluid leaks I have a 2019 Honda Accord, the fuel pump failed and the Honda service center in miami charged me $1308. 00 and it was supposed to be a free recall. I need help, the car is falling apart. Thanks.

My engine started to jerk while going over 2,000 rpm. I took my car into firestone and they claimed they fixed the issue. Unclogging the fuel, nail in the tire and other issues that were unrelated. I drove for about a week and the issue came back with my check engine light coming on and my car not being able to accelerate past 2,000 rpm. I took the car back to firestone and they replaced the spark plugs and claimed that the car was "good as new" once again about a week later I found myself on the side of the road with a check engine light. Thankfully I was able to make it home, after doing that I finally took my car to the dealership. After the diagnosis was done, the repair costed around 8,000 $ to replace. The issue was a head gasket replacement and a fuel injector as needing to be replaced because of the leakage of coolant into the cylinder. Due to some research, it turns out that their is a lawsuit against Honda for this exact issue with the same make and model car I have. I asked the manager of Honda to file a goodwill request and they declined it. No reason why, just declined it. Now I'm currently in the process of getting my car fixed at another shop getting my car fixed for half the price.

I was driving on the highway in michigan, the speed limit is 70 mph. All of a sudden, I noticed that my car acceleration was not working. It ended up my engine misfired and in doing so, I could not go more than 20 mph on the actual highway!!! it was absolutely terrifying, even when I put on my emergency lights, I had to find a place to safely pull aside. I still had to pull out in front of someone to try to get off the exit, so pulling out in front of someone at 20 mph on the highway was petrifying. Once, I finally was able to pull into a safe place. I immediately called my insurance company and Honda about the misfiring of my engine. My car was then towed to a Honda dealership, where technicians diagnosed a blown head gasket caused by coolant leaking into a cylinder. The only warning light was the “check engine” flashing light when I was unable to drive more than 20 mph. My vehicle went limp. The repair required replacement of the head gasket at significant personal expense about $6k +.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving 30 mph and merging onto the highway, the accelerator pedal was depressed, and the vehicle went into limp mode. The contact pulled over to the right side of the road, turned off and restarted the vehicle, and the vehicle temporarily operated as intended; however, the failure reoccurred. A dealer was contacted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed with head gasket failure. The contact was informed that the head gasket needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact was unable to drive the vehicle. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 86,000.

My car was stalling on the highway not going over 40, a perfectly maintained 88k mile car that is stock and only used for work and light leisure. The weak engine head gasket is to blame for coolant seeping into cyclinder 3. A very known defect with the 1. 5 turbocharged engines recently. The safety of me and passengers was at risk because that’s a 50mph+ highway and my car didn’t go to 50. Yes the problem was confirmed by dealership / manufacturer. Zero warning lights to this day.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle stalled with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact scanned the vehicle and retrieved a fault code associated with the high-pressure fuel pump failure. The vehicle was towed to dealer to be diagnosed. The dealer diagnosed the vehicle with misfires in cylinders #1 and #4 and spark plug failures. The vehicle was repaired and test driven. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

My car began to not turn on. Took it to the dealership, was told it was the turbocharge being loose. They saw coolant leaking. Paid for the fix. Few days later, car lost power and entered lint mode. Took it back and with simple camera work they check the gasket was leaking. Told that since the turbo before wasn’t working as intended, the gasket became thin. Repairs are above 6k, had no warning lights. Seems this is a common issue.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Accord. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle started shaking abnormally. Occasionally, while depressing the accelerator pedal, the vehicle jerked hard. Additionally, the contact stated that the message "emissions system failure," "engine overheating - turn off immediately," and other unknown messages were displayed, with several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an affiliate dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the head gasket needed to be replaced, and the engine needed to be disassembled to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 120,000.

While my vehicle was in transit, it experienced a sudden and severe loss of engine power. Simultaneously, multiple malfunction indicator lights (mils) illuminated on the dashboard, and my vehicle abruptly engaged "limp mode. " this drastic restriction of speed and maneuverability while in active traffic created an immediate and severe safety hazard, which nearly resulted in a catastrophic collision. Following the incident, a formal complaint was initiated with Honda customer relations. My own independent research clearly indicates that premature head gasket failure is a well-documented, systemic defect within these specific vehicle models; therefore, a constructive resolution was anticipated. While the initial intake communication appeared promising, the subsequent follow-up was highly unprofessional. The Honda representative who returned my call was dismissive of the safety risks involved, lacked basic professional courtesy, and explicitly stated that the manufacturer would offer no financial assistance or mechanical remediation for this known defect due to a lack of service records. The failure of this component represents both a significant mechanical defect and a severe threat to driver and public safety. This report is being filed to formally document the hazardous nature of this failure in transit, as well as the manufacturer's refusal to address or take accountability for an ongoing, documented issue.

The head gasket has failed and Honda knows this is an issue. There is a lawsuit in California about the head gasket failing. With it failing the whole engine is at risk for being ruined. This is going to cost $4000-$10,000 for people to fix depending on the damage it causes the engine. I personally lost acceleration on the freeway while going up a hill and everyone around me going 65-80 mph. I have 11 warning lights on my car right now and it started overheating today with a warning stating that the engine was hot and to stop driving immediately. We had to get towed to the mechanic for the 2nd time this week. When searching online I realized this was a known issue and about the class action lawsuit.

I am reporting a premature and dangerous failure of the engine head gasket on my 2019 Honda Accord sport (1. 5l turbo engine, 68,220 miles). While driving, the vehicle suddenly lost power due to severe engine misfires. Simultaneously, the dashboard experienced a total cascade of safety system failures, illuminating warning lights for the check engine light, electric parking brake, traction control (vsa), road departure mitigation, and adaptive cruise control. The vehicle currently in the authorized Honda dealer where technicians officially diagnosed a blown head gasket leaking coolant into cylinder 3. This is a widespread, well-documented manufacturing defect with Honda's 1. 5l turbo engines. I request that the NHTSA launch a formal safety investigation into american Honda for these premature head gasket failures to force a mandatory safety recall.

I have a 2019 Honda Accord sport 1. 5. I was driving on the freeway last week and my car did not allow me to accelerate anymore. Car went to an unsafe highway speed and it was hard to get to a shoulder where can safely stop. I felt my safety was compromised by this issue. All the warnings appeared on my dash and all the lights went on. No warnings prior to this problem. I am needing a new head gasket and repairs are estimated over 5k. I know there is a class action lawsuit against Honda because this issue is extremely common. I need help. I can’t afford these repairs and I depend on my car for transportation to work and child care daily. Please hole Honda accountable for this is very dangerous and very common.

My Honda Accord keeps trying to turn off in the middle of the fwy and I know it’s due to the fuel pump, I have a misfire and all the warning lights came on. This is due to Honda having the fuel pump recalled that has damaged all the fuel injectors. It took them almost a year to get the recall parts and now myself and a ton of others are now having to pay for these fuel injectors to have a car that doesn't stall and die on the road. Honda should have taken care of this knowing it damaged the fuel injectors. Also issue with air bad supplemental issues.

The first problems began in March 2026. No warning lamps turned on. My car began jabbing as I accelerated and a couple days after when I was breaking too. The first mechanic said it could be a coil but the problem didn’t stop after changing it. I then took it to Honda and they confirmed that it was a blown head gasket and that they were surprised no warning messages had appeared. I took it to empire automotive to get it fixed, I paid 5k to get it fixed. Three months after getting it fixed I am getting on the freeway and my car stops accelerating. The car behind me had to swerve on the side to avoid hitting me. I was able to move over to the side. Again no warning messages had shown up. I took it back to the mechanic and they confirmed the head gasket had blown out again.

Honda Accord 1. 5l engine had a blown head gasket at 94,000 miles. Local mechanic has advised that this engine has been an issue with blowing head gaskets early. Took it to dealership and they confirmed head gasket leaking. Was driving on highway and car went into limp mode and all the dash lights came on and car lost acceleration.

I received a warning light indicating my car was reaching maximum internal temperature. I immediately shut off the car, then took it to the Honda service center the next morning. They did an inspection and determined there is a leak in my head gasket at cylinder 3. There were no warnings prior to the time of failure. I had recently had my coolant flushed as part of general maintenance and I never missed an oil change. Vehicle inspections at the Honda service center regularly showed no issues.

While driving my 2019 Honda Accord hybrid at highway speed, the engine suddenly suffered catastrophic failure. The engine block ruptured, leaving a large visible hole with internal engine components exposed. Oil was expelled into the engine bay and ignited/burned briefly. This occurred without prior warning at highway speed and created a sudden loss-of-propulsion hazard. The vehicle has approximately 48,500 miles and has had regular on-time maintenance via Honda dealership. No warnings or other symptoms were active prior to engine rupture event. Fire dept & nys police arrived on scene prior to being towed. The vehicle is currently preserved at sussex Honda dealer for inspection and awaiting diagnosis.

Blown head gasket. Engine lost power and forced me to pull over. The problem is well documented with this generation of Honda 1. 5t engines, Honda dealership confirmed problem and second opinion from independent shop also confirmed, citing they had another Honda with the same 1. 5t engine with the same blown head gasket issue. No clear warnings prior to event, all the dashboard lights flashed on when car lost power.

Coolant is leaking into my cylinders due to the head gasket design flaw. Engine now needs to be replaced and it’s over $6,000. My car has about 150k miles. About 18 months ago it started misfiring, even while on the highway multiple times with my children. Codes came back saying I needed to replace ignition coils and spark plugs. Did that over and over and over. Turns out this is an on going issue with this specific year and model. I bought this car with 4 miles on it. I’m left without a car. This need to be recalled. I have read over 4,000 stories of others having the same issue.

While driving, my check engine light cam on suddenly, along with my entire dashboard lighting up with all kinds of warning lights. At that moment, the engine ran very rough while attempting to push the accelerator pedal to maneuver out of traffic, feeling like there was no power. With that, I also noticed the temperature gauge start to increase towards the hot limit, though there was no venting of steam from the radiator. I stopped my car on the side, turned the car off, and waited u til it cooled down before attempting to start it again. When restart after a period of time, I noticed what smelled like coolant coming from the exhaust. I have not been able to bring the vehicle to a mechanic to diagnose the issue just yet.

I can’t drive the car normal have to drive 60mph or under the radio went out and Honda can’t seem to figure out why so I can’t connect carplay. Myself and my kids are at risk due to the car randomly cutting off at any given time. I took it to Honda twice and my car has not been checked they constantly say they’re backed up but don’t have any rentals in stock. Can’t get the car inspection done because the lights are on. No they’re were none the light randomly popped up and said it was a camshaft sensor piece I got that change and the lights are still on. Took it to a mechanic to have it diagnosed and they’re stating it’s the turbo. Which is pretty annoying the car maintenance is don’t regularly and I’ve only had it for a year and a half.

My car has under 100k miles and has regularly been serviced throughout its life. The head gasket failed due a known design flaw.

10th gen Honda Accord has a major engine design flaw allowing coolant to pass through the gasket mixing with fuel in the cylinders causing premature head gasket repair which also puts the injectors under immense stress due to high compression. While driving my 2019 Honda Accord to the dealership for inspection. All the lights started flashing on the dash. Highlighting - critical failure detected please stop driving when safe. After a few mins the car’s infotainment system shut off no electrical activity and the car shut off mid drive. Luckily, it was in the morning and not during peak traffic congestion. Had I been going on the expressway I could’ve harmed myself, or someone else. This is highly unacceptable that a car with only 96k miles has a serious engine issue like this. I have maintained the oil changes at the required intervals, changed the fuel pump under recall, tires, brakes etc. After towing to the dealership. Diagnostics were performed and it was confirmed that the coolant was empty and radiator low. Which then prompted the dealer to perform a borescope test for the cylinders and it was found that cylinder 3 had a misfire and was leaking coolant into the cylinders causing premature wear on the gasket as well. The car is out of warranty and the service advisor said to me that they had another Honda just like mine with the same issue. This isn’t an isolated incident and many owners with the 10th gens have the same exact issue nationwide and Honda turns a blind eye and expects us to pay over 6,000 for the repair it’s a total scam! they are making money hand over fist without any recall and just scamming their customers. This is truly unacceptable and should be investigated immediately and Honda reprimanded!.

Blown head gasket, white smoke from the exhaust. Loss of power. All warning lights on the dash started blinking. Dealer gave estimate of $6500.

On 5-11-26, I was driving and the vehicle just stopped in the middle of the roadway. I couldn’t go in drive or reverse, just sitting with engine running. No warning lights, no noise, or anything that would let me know there was a problem. Cars was coming up behind me and in front. I called a towi truck, and a police officer. The officer pushed me off the road way, and the car was towed.

Vehicle: 2019 Honda Accord sport 1. 5l VIN: [xxx] mileage: approximately 122,497 my vehicle experienced a cylinder head gasket failure accompanied by coolant intrusion into the engine cylinders, injector-related issues, fuel trim failures, and cylinder misfires as diagnosed by an authorized Honda dealership. Prior to diagnosis, the vehicle experienced engine performance concerns associated with the misfire condition. The dealership documented historical misfire events and coolant intrusion into the combustion chambers. I am submitting this complaint because I am concerned that injector-related issues, engine misfires, coolant intrusion, and cylinder head gasket failures may represent a recurring condition affecting similarly equipped vehicles. Engine misfires and coolant intrusion can potentially result in reduced engine performance, loss of power, unexpected vehicle behavior, or engine failure while the vehicle is being operated. I request that NHTSA review this issue and determine whether a broader investigation is warranted. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

Vehicle was being driven on the highway when suddenly engine hesitated and started stalling. Speed was reduced from around 65mph down to the low 40s. Cars were stacking up behind and passing, causing potential hazardous conditions. Vehicle was taken to a mechanic shop and diagnosed with misfiring, after reading obd ii with many alerts coming on. Further diagnostics revealed cylinder head gasket was leaking coolant into engine, as shown by borescope images. This is a known problem on 2018-2020 Honda Accords with both 1. 5t & 2. 0 engines. The multiple alert messages started to come on a few weeks ago, but the engine hesitation and stalling just started this week. At first we suspected a 12v battery issue, but testing confirmed battery was at 12. 8v with no issues.
