There are 3 owner-reported steering complaints for the 2019 Honda Accord Hybridin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
I was driving on a city street at about 30mph. There was no one in front of me or behind me. Nothing in the road. The orange rectangular brake light came on for no reason, kept flashing and it felt as if the brakes were automatically being pumped, slowing the car down to a compete stop. In addition, I had no control of the steering. It was very dangerous situation which could have resulted in accident or injury.
Ever since I bought the 2019 Accord Hybrid new. There has always been a steering wheel tug or slight sticking. I complained to Ocean Honda (at the Time, no longer in business, now North Hollywood Honda). They said it was normal. Fighting the steering wheel on long drives didn't seem normal. I thought maybe it was lane asset issue. Turned it off and back on. Fixed the problem for a while but starting again. After Covid I started working from home. So less driving. Not enough long driving to get it to react. Now there is a recall on the newer model Honda Accords that sound the same as my older Accord. My hope is that owners of older Accords are also speaking up to be included in the new steering wheel recall. These older Accord could be dangerous too. ***I can't add the correct date below. Incident around June 2020, but more than just one***
I have was called steering sticking in my steering wheel when I’m driving and it stuck straight and I have to turn it a little bit. I have to kinda yank it just a tad bit because the steering is sticking is an issue with other Hondas. I’m having it also.
