What owners wrote

On Wednesday, September 21, 2022, my wife was parking her car in the parking lot of a TJ Maxx, 4220 Summer Ave, Memphis, TN 38122. As she turned right into the parking space, at a very low rate of speed, 1-2 mph, the engine revved and launched her into another parked vehicle. Once the engine revved and launched she had both feet on the brake pedal. It did light damage to the vehicle she hit and moderate damage to her 2016 Honda Accord Coupe. The impact was hard enough to deploy the driver side airbag.

September 2022 Crash

The contact owns a 2016 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while the vehicle was idling the engine would suddenly stall off and could not be immediately restarted. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who replaced the catalytic converter but the failure continued to occur. The vehicle was later taken to the local dealer who replaced the battery, engine coil pact, and fuel injectors but the failure was not resolved. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered.
