When my 2019 Honda Accord Sport makes high speed changes, the brakes will automatically start aggressive braking enough to cause a rear end collision. Driving on the interstate and no cars in front of me and then suddenly the braking system aggressively brakes the car. Very dangerous.

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

My 2019 honda accord, purchased new july 25, has 2365 miles on it. Twice very early in my ownership of the car the collision mitigation braking system (cmbs) activated with no cars in front of me. I forgot about the problem as it did not repeat itself until three incidents 9/11 and 9/12 2019.

Applying brakes gives a non-linear response that makes it difficult to brake smoothly and safely. Applying the brakes results in varying responses that appears not to brake and then suddenly grabs. I suspect that there is either air in the system or part failure of the brake booster or master cylinder.

I purchased my honda accord sport last month and had no issues 5,000 miles on it. But as I've been driving it the brakes are not operating as they should way too sensitive and is not a smooth process as it should be the slightest pressure makes it jolt forward. On idle my rpms start to lower then go up I don't believe this should be happening.

When I brake from a speed of 30-40 MPH, the pedal feel is not smooth throughout the braking motion. First, I start to brake but I do not slow down, only when I press even harder does the brake engage but at that point it is a heavy brake make the car lunge forward. Basically the brakes only engage when I press harder on the pedal but doing so makes the braking not smooth.

When removing the electronic parking brake, to begin driving, one or more brake pads get stuck to the rotor then is violently returned to the open position. This happens in weather below 40 degrees fahrenheit, after driving, then parking for mere minutes, even when the car is still running. Many sources this is due to the master cylinder not having enough pressure to relax the caliper.
