2022 Honda Accord

The infotainment touchscreen in my 2022 Honda Accord Sport experiences phantom or ghost touches. The screen changes menus on its own without driver input. It switches audio sources, changes settings, interrupts Apple CarPlay, and becomes unresponsive to touch commands. The problem occurs while driving and causes significant driver distraction because I must look away from the road to determine what the system is doing. The issue affects navigation, phone functions, and audio controls. This is a known problem affecting many 2018-2022 Honda Accords. Honda has acknowledged similar ghost-touch symptoms in technical communications, but no recall has been issued. The defect creates a safety risk by diverting driver attention from the roadway.

The infotainment system and center touchscreen display unit on my 2022 Honda Accord suffer a severe component failure commonly referred to as "Ghost Touch". The screen touches by itself so the radio, map, everything in the menu change by itself. Sometime, the radio turns on/off by itself too. When this happen, the touchscreen becomes unresponsive or freeze. This defect severely puts my safety and the safety of others at risk by creating extreme, unpredictable driver distractions. The sound of this "Ghost Touch" is pretty loud. I have brought it to the dealer, Vandergriff Honda, many times and they told me to wait for recall. They said if I would like to try by replacing the auto head unit and display, it will cost $6,511.31 as my car is over 3 years warranty. I contacted Honda Corporate, and they said replacing the auto head unit and display may still bring the same problems; therefore, they told me to wait. This is a severe manufacturing defect on my 2022 Honda Accord. It started on February 2026, often during summer when it is very hot. So far, I have not get into any accident but driving this car makes me worry and all I can do is wait for recall.

The infotainment system glitches and will not respond to touch or will have phantom “touches” where the system will make inputs on its own. This is worse when it’s really hot and was told by dealership that this is due to components overheating and malfunctioning, and it requires the full system to be replaced. This can be a major safety issue when driving the vehicle.

Oct.6 2026 Driving down Burbank Bl the car braked on its own with a huge jolt. I felt my neck whip. There was no danger of hitting a car in front and the weather was clear. The car behind me almost hit me. Oct.7, 2026 Driving up Magnolia bl with a passenger the car again braked unexpectedly jolting us whipping our necks. There was no danger of collision and there was no reason for the car to brake. Both times the orange brake light lit up on the dash. I will be taking the car in to the dealer. I became aware there's a federal investigation for this happening with multiple cars. I will also be going to the urgent care with my passenger tonight as the neck pain has increased.

While driving my Honda on a highway at approximately 65 mph after rainfall, I experienced a serious and potentially life-threatening safety failure. Without warning, the steering wheel suddenly became locked/restricted, making it extremely difficult to control the vehicle. At the same time, numerous warning lights and safety-system warnings appeared, including: - Brake system warning - Electric Power Steering (EPS) warning - Vehicle Stability Assist warning - Hill Start Assist warning - Adaptive Cruise Control warning - Lane Keeping Assist warning - Collision Mitigation Braking System warning - Road Departure Mitigation warning This incident occurred while I was traveling approximately 65 mph on the highway and nearly caused me to lose control and crash. The sudden loss/restriction of steering control combined with the simultaneous failure or disabling of multiple driver-assistance and safety systems created an extremely dangerous situation. The fact that this occurred after driving in rainy/wet conditions is also concerning. I have researched this issue online and found numerous reports from other Honda owners describing similar warning lights, steering/electric power steering problems, and multiple safety-system failures, particularly involving Honda Accord vehicles. I am extremely concerned that this may represent a recurring safety-related defect rather than an isolated incident. A steering system that can suddenly become locked or severely restricted while a vehicle is traveling at highway speed presents a serious risk of a crash, injury, or loss of life. I respectfully request that NHTSA investigate this issue, review complaints involving similar Honda vehicles, and determine whether there is a common defect involving the electric power steering system, electrical system, water intrusion, or communication between the vehicle's safety-control modules. This problem needs to be investigated before someone is seriously injured or killed.Best regards.
