While driving on highway all warning lights came on (in the dashboard with an exclamation point) and the car speed dropped to less than 40 m/hr.
While driving my Honda accord 2015 on interstate 75 in the left lane, the dashboard displayed a warning that there was a power system failure, the engine light came on. The vehicle immediately lost all power. The dashboard display was still lit and the radio continued to play. There was no resistance with the gas pedal and the car could only coast. I checked traffic and changed lanes to the far right emergency pull off. I turned off the car and then restarted it and the power system failure warning was gone but then a brake system warning came on. The car did travel foward with gas pedal and the brake seemed to work so I stayed in emergency lane and proceeded to closet exit off i75. I went to auto zone but they could not assist me. When the car was restarted all the warnings were clear. I took it the a Honda dealer and ask for a diagnostic. Honda service person said that if I was driving with both feet (one on gas and one on brake) that loss of power. I was not driving with both feet, so I asked him to run a diagnostics so I felt safe enough to drive home. The diagnostics revealed that the computer needed an update that was performed by service. I read the paperwork on the diagnositcs and there was a statement that described my incident completely with sudden loss of power. My car is not on a recall list. Honda seemed to know exactly what to fix, but I was never notified that my car needed an update resulting in power system failure. Why was this information not communicated to the owners of these cars? for a brand new car to be able to display all kinds of information (ie, oil life, range of miles, time for service) why can not the car display that its computer needs an update and to take in for service? there was no injury thankfully, but easily this could have happen, I was just lucky that I was able to coast over to the emergency lane and was not going uphill.
I was commuting to work, driving on a major, high-traffic highway in the high-occupancy vehicle lane, when warning lights came on, saying there was a power system problem, a brake system problem, and some problem with elevated temperature that meant power was being reduced. I put on my flasher, hoping to make my way across three lanes of heavy traffic to pull off on the right shoulder. But I had no power at all. Luckily, there was a shoulder to the left where I could pull off. (despite the warning, the brakes seemed okay. ) this was an extremely dangerous situation, and it was pure luck that no one was injured or even killed. The car is only 4 months old. I had it towed to the dealer. They told me this was "a common problem" with the Accord Hybrid and that Honda had issued a software fix that should solve this problem. If this is true, there needs to be a recall so owners will become aware of this problem and can get it fixed rather than waiting until power failures and accidents occur.
I was driving on highway at approx 75mph when got message power failed, overheating and breaks failed. Accelerator / gas pedal stopped working. Could have been big accident if vehicle from behind hit the car.
