What owners wrote
I was driving in the outer lane on a city street when my car suddenly turned and hit the curb, sending the car down a hill. The brakes didn’t work either and I hit two trees headon. All airbags deployed. An electrical fire started under the hood. Two men came and shut off the power. The car was towed and declared a total loss. I was taken to the hospital by ambulance. The only person that I know of that inspected the car was the claims adjuster. There was no warning that anything was wrong.
My 2015 honda accord LX key started chipping off in the lock cylinder and stop turning after 45,000 miles on the car. The lock cylinder stop turning with my key in the cylinder. The honda turned off on the interstate and I could not turn the steering wheel with this occurred. The lock cylinder, key re-programmed to match the new lock cylinder cost my $660 and was not covered by my extended warranty. This needs to be issued as a recall immediately.
