The ABS, VSA, EPS, and the parking brake systems began to appear on my dashboard. After diagnostics, it appeared that the VSA modulator was failing to provide all these components that are needed for safety in all driving conditions. After doing some research, I came to know that the modulator failure is very common in the Honda Accord models from year 2010 and above. Yet, Honda has yet to recall vehicles for this issue that affects the brake and steering systems. So far, the lights continuously appear and disappear. However, there is a huge difference when the intermittent lights appear. The car swerves too easily on rainy days when running through a puddle on the street. Even on windy days, sometimes it cannot handle when I am driving against the wind. …
My 2014 Honda has been have 2 major issues over the life of the vehicle. 1.

I have reported this concern to Team Honda in Baton Rouge on numerous occasions. The most recent repost was on [redacted]. I am concerned my engine will fail or explode. 2. Tires Light Indicator (See Pictures) My tires were check on [redacted] and I spent almost $300 on a new tire. The same light which were on on that day came back on. All 4 of my tires were checked out and 3 out of 4 of them were in good condition. This has also been an ongoing issue. The tire light random come on, then the other 5 (all related) flashed an the dashboard.

I bought my Honda Accord new and have been the only driver. In our first snowstorm this year, I noticed I had tremendous difficulty moving forward, even on flat surface, within my own culdesac, with very little snow on the ground. Despite the car having less than 20,000 miles and original tires, I was surprised how badly the tires performed in mild snowy conditions. I made a mental note to get new tires, although quite disappointed that I felt that need with a relatively new car unfortunately, the next snow hit before I bought new tires. I was in my own neighborhood, a few blocks from my house, making my way to a major street with a mild decline. The road was slick, but I noted that the other cars did not seem to have any difficulty stopping, etc. As I began the descent down the hill, I noticed my tires were not giving my any traction, and I began sliding uncontrollably down the hill. …
I am writing to report a persistent and dangerous safety defect in my 2014 Honda Accord involving the VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist) / ABS / ABS modulator / ABS ECU system. The ABS, VSA, and other warning lights have been on for years, first noticing around 60-70,000 miles indicating an ongoing fault in the system. The dealer has diagnosed a bad ABS/VSA modulator and/or ECU and stated this is a common issue and that often this part is on backorder. Most recently, while turning the car, the system locked or mis applied the brakes, causing the car to lose control and spin out. Luckily I did not crash as the car behind me was at a safe distance, but I ended up on the side of the highway in a dangerous situation. …
'Takata recall' recently I purchased a 2014 Honda Accord from a dealership which made this my first car ever. Everything was going right up until 3 months of me having the car. My brakes went out without me knowing because someone from that dealership broke off the little chip that makes the squeaking noise. I took it to the dealer to explain to them what had happen showing them the evidence and they made it seem like I was lying while driving on hwy 16 I ended up having a blowout on the passenger side of my car and messed my front fender up. Two(2)months after that in March I purchased a brand new battery because the battery that came with the car had died out. Prior to that I never knew the alternative was the reason for the battery to constantly die out. …
