general problems of the 2019 Honda Accord - part 1

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.

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 +.

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.

There's a massive recall on Honda fuel pump which is leading to a stall on while driving.

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.

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.

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!.

Vehicle caused a severe drivability condition while at highway speeds by sputtering, losing power and auxiliary driver's systems becoming degraded. We were able to drive the vehicle in limp mode to a near service station. They ran diagnostics and determined that there were multiple secondary events affecting the adas system. They also checked the battery and determined it was marginally good. We managed to drive the vehicle in degraded mode to our home and we changed the battery the following day. Upon doing so, all affected systems became available again and the vehicle's driveability profile was restored. This behavior is incredibly unsettling and unsafe. A vehicle that is so sensitive to electrical fluctuations should have better warning systems that would prevent, or at least advise the driver, that an unsafe condition will occur unless the battery is promptly replaced. This behavior could easily cause an accident if the driver is unprepared to react to the vehicle sudden and unpredictable shutdown of engine power and safety systems. This needs to be investigated and corrective measures need to be promptly proposed to affected vehicle.

Upon recent repairs completed by an official Honda licensed dealership for the fuel pump due to the related issue of stalling, misfiring, insufficient fuel economy and safety concern. My vehicle has continued to stall, misfire or idle extremely rough. Upon local investigation the error code p0203 and p0303 have populated as the most recent issue. No longer allowing me to drive the vehicle as it remains in limp mode. Previously error codes such as p0304 and p0302 as well as the associated error codes for the injector circuits indicating “open” have previously been detected intermittently and now permanently. In previous events within the last 3 months I have been stranded on highways due to the same stalling, misfiring and limp mode issue after I have previously been inspected by a Honda dealership and promised the issues would resolve. Unfortunately driving at respectable highway speeds and even local city limits my safety as well as my child and spouse’ safety have been put at risk due to the sudden deceleration caused by consistent misfires or limp mode effect which can cause me to have a collision with no warning. I have nearly been in 3 accidents due to this persistent issue.

Car suddenly stopped accelerating and became very unsafe and unable to be driven. Car has approx 100,000 miles but just was inspected (3/2026) and has been well maintained. It has been serviced at Honda service centers (Honda city and advantage Honda) as well as my private mechanic. Private mechanic diagnosed the issue as faulty fuel injector citing code: p 303. I completed the fuel pump recalled repair at advantage Honda dealership on March 22, 2023.

When driving the car the first time this happened on April 19, 2026 I excellerated after stop light to cross a highway. That is when the car started sputtering and the check engine light started flashing it would only go 5 miles per hour, I then pulled to the side of the highway turned the car off restarted the car check engine light was then turned off I excelerated. The check engine light started flashing again, the car would not proceed again. The second time this happened was April 21, 2026, we had not had the problem happen for a couple days so I drove it again got to the stop light and excellerated again and the same problem happened. We are now not driving the vehicle. I looked up to see if there was a recall on the 2019 Honda Accord my VIN number did not come up. However the statement your organization has put out is “nearly” all 2019 Honda Accords have been affected by this recall. This is the only car we have and we cannot get it fixed. Please help me.

I am reporting a recurring safety concern involving sudden loss of power and engine stalling while driving. The vehicle wouldn't accelerate during normal driving condition and lost power. After the vehicle stalled, all the warning light came on. My husband retired to restarted the engine but the it made cranking noise. After couple of minutes it barely restarted and was able to drive about a mile and then it stalled again. Repeated 4 times to finally make it home. The vehicle has a prior recall history related to the fuel system. The current symptoms are similar to fuel delivery or fuel system-related failure conditions. I called Honda corporate to provide flat bed for the towing but they refused. My husband cleared the code (p0087)so the vehicle was free of warning lights so he can drive to the dealer next morning. We brought the vehicle to Honda dealership for diagnosis. However, the issue could not be reproduced during an inspection due to code (p0087) was cleared and couldn't reproduce the code which directly indicates fuel rail pressure low. Given the safety nature of this condition and the fact that it occurs while driving, I and requesting an investigation into whether this may be related to a known defect of incomplete resolution of prior recall -related repairs. This issue poses a potential safety risk due to unexpected loss of engine power during operation. The dealer of joyce Honda has test driven and couldn't find the fault so they want me to pick up the car at my own expense and safety risk.

When driving home one night the dash board in the car all of a sudden hade a lot of warning lights come on. I brought it to my mechanic to have a look at it and he suggested to change the spark plugs and the coils which was done and he cleared the codes. About two days later I went to go to work and once again all the warning lights on the the dash board come on and it wouldn't drive over 5 mph. The mechanic went deeper into the problem he said it was cylinder # 3 that had a misfire and the fuel injectors needed to be changed which was done($1,000 later). A week went buy no lights on the dash came on but it has a rough start and when you get to about 40 mph the car starts to hastate to move. This time I brought it rick case Honda to have it looked at and they are telling me it is now the head gasket on cylinder # 3 has a hair line crack and needs to be changed ($7,400) to remove and replace the head gasket. This happened over multiple weeks between bowering cars waiting for parts. Now I have find a way to pay a $7,400 bill.

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.

I brought my 2019 Honda Accord to dealer for safety recall for something with the fuel system. Since then, I've been having car problems with acceleration, car jerking, and numerous dash lights coming on along with the check engine light. Had a few incidents where my vehicle was not functioning properly and would break down. Had my vehicle towed once since getting my vehicle back from dealer due to recall. Please advise and please help.

This 2019 Honda Accord was part of the fuel pump recall that occurred in 23/24. The vehicle was taken in and had the fuel pump fixed at the dealership under the recall. From that point we have begun to have issues with the fuel injectors. The vehicle started to run rough, and then all of the dash lights came on. All accessory items, lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, etc, all stay on as if malfunctioning. The vehicle was taken into dealership and diagnostic was run, results was two failing fuel injectors. Calls were placed to Honda and request was made to have them assist in a goodwill repair since so many of these vehicles are experiencing the same issue after the recall repair was made. Honda did a review of the diagnostic report and reported problem and stated that the vehicle fell outside of the warranty on the fuel injectors, and that they would not honor any assistance in repairs. They stated case was closed and no further conversations could be had. I mentioned that I knew that they had issued an extended warranty on 2016-2019 Honda crv's and civics for the fuel injectors up to 150,000 miles. They stated that my vehicle VIN did not fall within those, which I acknowledge. Vehicle is still malfunctioning and we will be responsible for the repairs, even though this is a well known issue after the fuel pump recall repair. It was stated that we will just need to fix the repairs on our own, which is over $2000 and that, if in the future, there is a recall or extended warranty offered then we could try and speak with them about possibly getting our money back.

My vehicle started having issues with misfires approximately 2 years after I bought it in January 2020. I bought it new from the dealership in salinas California. I took it to morgan hill Honda for repairs. It’s had 2 misfires and I took it in for a fuel pump recall. About 2 weeks later all my lights in my dash come on. I took it in to get looked at and they said it’s the turbo engine, $3k to fix it. I’ve had nothing but problems and it’s like a bandaid of a fix every time. The first time it happened I was merging onto highway [xxx] and it gave out and slowed down to 25mph. I had to pull over to the shoulder almost caused an accident.

Was told I have a blown head gasket on cylinder 3 with 90k miles on my vehicle. No check engine light has been on.

Engine began to have an odd stutter and trouble accelerating which was initially believed to be spark plugs after a full tune up did not fix the issue took to my local mechanic. Diagnosed the issue as bad fuel injectors likely due to the fuel pump recall. Code popped up as cylinder misfire initially which didn't make much sense considering a full tune up was completed less than a month prior. After further diagnosis issue was found to be a blown head gasket causing several thousand dollars in repair due to having to completely disassemble and reassemble the engine.

The vehicle, a 2019 Honda Accord, experienced a catastrophic engine failure (blown head gasket) and entered "limp mode" after being operated for approximately 18 months with an unaddressed, high-priority federal safety recall (NHTSA 23v-858). The vehicle currently displays dtcs p0100, p0113, and p023d, which indicate severe air/fuel metering and boost pressure correlation failures. Primary cause: consequential thermal stress the primary cause is likely thermal degradation of the head gasket resulting from a prolonged "lean-burn" condition. Recall defect: the recalled fuel pump impeller is known to deform, restricting fuel flow. Lean condition: a restricted fuel supply causes the engine to run "lean" (too much air, not enough fuel). Lean combustion is significantly hotter than normal combustion. Heat accumulation: over 1. 5 years of operation with this restricted flow, the engine experienced repeated, excessive thermal cycles that compromised the structural integrity of the head gasket. Limp mode trigger: the stored codes (p0100/p0113) show the ecu was struggling to compensate for the erratic fuel/air environment created by the failing pump. Secondary assessment (the dealer's claim): the service advisor (paul) has alleged that aftermarket components and a missing turbo gasket caused the failure. Assessment: while aftermarket parts increase scrutiny, a missing external turbo gasket typically causes an exhaust leak or loss of boost, not an internal head gasket failure. Contradiction: the dealer must provide empirical proof that these parts caused the failure, whereas the NHTSA recall is a pre-documented, manufacturer-admitted defect known to cause the exact stalling and "limp mode" symptoms the vehicle is currently exhibiting. Conclusion: the most probable cause is manufacturer negligence. By failing to provide a remedy part for 18 months, the manufacturer forced the vehicle to operate under a documented defect that creates the exact high-heat conditions required to cau.

Honda had a fuel pump recall but the fuel pump issue is causing fuel injectors to go bad. Rough idling and loss of power.

There is loss of power when accelerating and all the warning lights are staying on when the car starts which is disengaging all of the advanced driver assistant systems.

Gas filler "system" does not have screw on/off gas cap. It has a rubber covering with a slit through which driver inserts gasoline station hose metal nozzle. When removing gasoline station hose nozzle, rubber slit "appears to close" but drops of gasoline remain on the rubber covering & drop onto the vehicle body. I wipe off gasoline drops with paper towel. I'm concerned about large amount of gasoline used & question if "rubber slit covering" provided instead of a tighten screw on/off gas cap allows gasoline/vapor to evaporate & condense on rubber covering of car fuel delivery hose to tank. This occurs in very cold weather as well as warm weather. Recall information on "Honda fuel pump" doesn't include this vehicle fuel delivery system issue. Aunt sold me the 2019 Honda Accord sedan recently on November 19, 2025. I didn't notice this "no locked gas door" (push on gasoline door to open the door) which opens to rubber "pouch with slit" covering over delivery hose filling area down to gas tank. Aunt sees these 2 mechanisms as making filling gas tank easier without release of inside lever lock to gas delivery door nor having to turn a screw cap to open/close at gas station fueling. Aunt is instructed by Honda darcar/fairfax, va to take Honda Accord in for maintenance only once a year. She was told she can check electronics system info regarding "% oil life remaining" as guide to when to get an oil change. A problem at this point is an alterable/'reset-able" electronics guide to when to get an oil change which can change "% oil life remaining" by accidental reset. By comparison, my now out-of-service 2011 Honda Accord had a normal locked gas filling door release from inside which opened onto a screw cap which could be tightened to stop gas vapor leak, evaporation/condensation & for gas theft & vandalism protection & an unalterable "% oil life remaining" wrench icon which resets only after oil change. Has this been reported? [xxx] [xxx] Dec 17, 2025. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (fo.

This has happened out of the blue and randomly more than once recently. Loss of power/no acceleration. Once it had no acceleration when taking off from a stopped position, and then again it lost acceleration while driving at a speed of around 50mph the car would no longer accelerate, had to pull off to the side of the road and turned the car off and let it sit for a few minutes and then restarted the car and it resumed to function normally. There are no codes in the system, no warning lights, this has happened 4 different times now. Honda says they cant do anything if they cant make it repeat the problem when they diagnosis it and if the system doesnt have any active codes in 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.

In the past 2 months my car starting having rough idle issues. As recommended by the dealership, I replaced the head gasket as they said it was leaking coolant into the cylinder causing the rough idle. Almost immediately after paying for this, the dashboard lit up like a christmas tree with multiple warnings and the car went into limp mode, lost acceleration and would have been extremely dangerous had we been on the interstate or multi lane road. Took it back to the dealership, ran another diagnostic and determined the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. These repairs cost over $5,000. Recalls have already been put in place for models around this one and Honda should acknowledge these problems as it is wide spread.

My vehicle’s fuel delivery system failed after a recall repair. The in-tank fuel pump was replaced under recall by the dealer, even though I had no drivability complaints, no warning lights, and a full inspection that day confirmed no issues with my vehicle. Immediately after the recall pump replacement, the vehicle developed drivability problems including sputtering, hesitation, and failure to start. On one occasion, the underside of the car overheated and exhaust fumes, including carbon monoxide, entered the cabin. The interior filled with heat and fumes, I became lightheaded, dizzy, and shaky, and nearly lost consciousness while driving. My dog, who was with me, vomited and panted heavily from the exposure. I had to pull over and exit the vehicle immediately. This incident occurred only after the recall pump was replaced and points to faulty installation or malfunction of the recall component, which disrupted the fuel system and caused improper combustion and exhaust handling. On another occasion, the vehicle stalled in the middle of an intersection, leaving me at serious risk of being hit by cross traffic. The car now shows a high-pressure fuel pump fault. Although the in-tank pump and the high-pressure pump are in different locations, they are part of the same system: the in-tank pump supplies steady fuel volume and pressure directly to the high-pressure pump. If the in-tank pump is defective, mis-installed, or inconsistent, it causes the high-pressure pump to fail. This made my vehicle unsafe to operate, placing me, my passengers, and other drivers at risk. The problem has been confirmed by the dealership, which documented a high-pressure fuel pump fault, and reviewed by Honda corporate. Components and service records are available for inspection. There were no warning lamps, messages, or drivability issues prior to the recall service, all symptoms appeared immediately afterward.

I have taken my car to the Honda dealership on multiple occasions because my car has stopped accelerating while driving on the interstate. The car will flash the check engine light and completely stop accelerating while driving. I was first told it was the fuel pump that was recalled and waiting over a year on the recalled part and multiple times breaking down while driving they finally replaced the part. After the dealership replaced fuel pump I continued to have problems unfortunately happening more often and worse than before replacing the fuel pump. I was then told my car was misfiring and needing a tune up which would involve replacing all four coil packs and spark plugs. I replaced all of these recommended parts with no resolution to my problem. I have since be told by the dealership my car needs all four fuel injectors replaced after running the diagnostic tests. After doing research it seems to be a common problem with this make and model car. I can’t believe with as many cars with this same issue and the safety issues with completely stalling in the middle of traffic there are no recalls on these cars.

Although my VIN currently shows no open recalls (because the fuel pump recall was previously marked completed), the replacement part failed while driving in traffic, leaving me stranded. This vehicle previously had the low-pressure fuel pump replaced under the Honda recall campaign. On August 15, 2025, the replacement fuel pump failed again while driving in rush hour traffic in north dallas, causing the vehicle to stall in a live lane and creating a major safety hazard. I attempted dozens of restarts without success. The vehicle was towed to coit auto center ($80), where they performed a diagnostic test confirming low-pressure fuel pump failure codes — the same component that was recalled. On August 16, 2025, the vehicle was then towed ($223) to john eagle Honda in dallas (the original selling dealer and recall repairer). Honda and the dealership stated the repeat failure was not warrantable because the recall repair had already been performed once. This is unacceptable. A recall remedy that fails is still a recall compliance issue, not a customer-pay repair. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate Honda’s handling of repeat recall failures. The vehicle requires replacement of the defective pump and coverage of labor costs, as well as a full diagnostic inspection (starter, alternator, battery, ignition, ecu, and electronics) to ensure it is safe for road use after the stall and restart attempts.

The vehicle displayed engine warning message “emission system problem” at 70,000 miles and this appears to be present in many vehicles of this edition.

My vehicle dashboard was lit up like a christmas tree with over $3. 1k in repairs only for it to be the fuel pump!.

Fuel pump failed, car stalled and was unresponsive.

Vehicle: 2019 Honda Accord lx summary of safety defects & failure: my vehicle is experiencing severe, dangerous mechanical and electrical failures identical to existing national safety recalls, yet my specific VIN is being excluded by the manufacturer. 1. Fuel system failure & engine stalling: the vehicle is experiencing sudden engine stalling and failure to start due to a defective low-pressure fuel pump. This matches the exact failure profile of NHTSA recall numbers 23v-858, 21v-215, and 20v-314 (Honda campaigns kgc/kgd). This defect causes the vehicle to lose power unexpectedly, creating an immediate crash hazard on active roadways. 2. Body control module (bcm) defect: the vehicle is suffering from critical electrical disruptions, resulting in erratic component failures including [mention any specific symptoms you have, e. G. , malfunctioning windshield wipers, defrosoter failure, rear-view camera blacking out, or power window errors]. This perfectly mirrors the systemic programming defect outlined in NHTSA recall number 20v-771 (Honda campaign x95). Dealer diagnosis & manufacturer denial: I have taken the vehicle to an authorized Honda dealership multiple times. - in June 2025, the bcm software issues were initially dismissed by the dealer as a general electrical problem. - a subsequent comprehensive diagnostic confirmed the fuel pump and bcm failure, resulting in a repair estimate of $4,688. The dealership refused to cover the repairs under the safety recalls, citing that my VIN is not currently flagging "open recalls" in their corporate database. When referred to american Honda motor CO. Corporate customer support, corporate summarily dismissed my complaint and refused any cost assistance or repair remedy, despite their clear knowledge that these exact defects plague the 2019 Accord lx model year. Because the manufacturer is utilizing restrictive VIN range loopholes to evade financial accountability for known safety hazards, I am filing this complaint.

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.
