Vehicle stalled while driving on a highway with power system failure warning. I could not accelerate the car. I had to take the exit since I was luckily in the right lane and close to the exit. Car was running on battery only at around 30 mph. I pulled out in the parking lot, turned off power and turned back on and was able to reach home. I took the car to the dealer, they could not diagnose the issue right away and asked me to leave the cardie to drivability issue. They called us back after 2 days and told us that they updated the software. I do not feel safe driving this car. Please take necessary action immediately.
Problem usually occurs during the day and when the weather is hot. power system problem display comes on and engine service light as well. turning the car off and on helps but the engine light stays on for another 24 hrs or so before turning off. The car felt like it lose gas engine power and operates electric only. I was going 65mph on the freeway, and when I try to step on the gas peddel, I can maintain that speed as long as the battery had enough power but the gas engine will not kick on. it was not a pleasant experience as I was driving on the left lane and was quickly trying to move over to the right on a freeway without shoulders. luckily I was able to make it to the next nearest exit, half a mile away. Had the error msg appear 4 times in 2 weeks. took the car to the dealer 3 times within that time frame. my first visit, they didnt see anything wrong, no dtc codes, no check engine light. second visit, I told them about the software update I saw on this site. they applied patch TSB 15-057 hv cell voltage sensor (cvs) software update, took the car home, when to work later in the afternoon, and power system problem message came on again. Third visit, no dashboard lights stayed on once again, told them about how it was my 3rd visit in 2 weeks. tech drove the car for 10 miles, power system problem pops up. found dtcs codes finally. code p108 - generator motor inverters, and code 0562 - generator motor control module system low voltage. tech performed troubleshooting for p108c and reapplied patch, I guess it didnt go thru the first time? drove it for another 10 miles and found no errors this time. It has been 5 days since my last visit and I have not had the issue since. also to note, it has not been as hot here in the northeast the last few days. highs in the 70s compare to 80s-90s when I began having this issue.
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.
Tl- the contact owns a 2015 Honda Accord Hybrid. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 78 mph, the dashboard displayed "power failure, brake failure, overheated powering down". In addition the check engine light illuminated. The vehicle acceleration failed and the vehicle was coasted to the shoulder. The vehicle was towed to the dealer. The vehicle was diagnosed that a software update was needed that caused conflict between hybrid voltage and engine voltage. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 2,000. Bd.
