Description of the problem | We leased a honda accord in july, 2019. We are a honda family. Before the accident on january 10 of this year, we noticed several unusual happenings. The trunk lid would open while driving after being securely latched. It also would begin braking unnecessarily. The unfortunate incident occurred when the driver drove into a parking space in front of a local retail store traveling slowly when the honda inexplicably accelerated forward very quickly. It jumped the curb, went over wide sidewalk, traveled through a brick wall anchoring a huge store window, and then went crashed through the huge window. The honda finally stopped after it had completely entered the store. Fortunately, nobody was injured. We are very grateful for this. It seems that something is seriously wrong with the speed control system of the honda. We felt that it was our responsibility to notify honda in hope of preventing a future tragedy. We felt compelled to share this information on the nhsta website where 54 complaints were listed for the 2019 honda accord. *ln *dl |
