2024 Honda Accord Sedan recalls & complaints
Source: NHTSA, updated daily. Last checked 2026-10-19. Recalls apply to specific VINs — run your VIN to confirm.
3 safety recalls, most serious first
1. Seat belts
What's wrong, in plain English: Seat belts may not hold you in a crash. The front seat belt pretensioners may be missing the rivet that secures the quick connector and wire plate. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard numbers 208, "Occupant Crash Protection," 209, "Seat Belt Assembles," and 210, "Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages."
What could happen: A seat belt pretensioner missing a rivet will not properly restrain the occupant, increasing the risk of injury during a crash.
The fix: Dealers will inspect and replace the seat belt pretensioner assemblies as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed January 8, 2024. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's numbers for this recall are MG7 and NG5.
What to do
- Check whether your car is affected: enter your 17-digit VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls. A recall covers specific VINs, not every 2024 ACCORD SEDAN.
- Book a repair at any authorized Honda dealer. Quote NHTSA campaign 23V782000 (manufacturer code MG7 and NG5).
- The repair is free. By US law, safety recall repairs cost the owner nothing, no matter the car's age or mileage.
- Manufacturer hotline: 1-888-234-2138.
- Buying this car used? Ask the seller for proof the recall was completed, or run the VIN yourself before paying.

The vehicle repeatedly has creaking, sticky steering/issues with steering, and clunking sounds when driving. Sound is more prominent at low speeds and when cornering. The vehicle's steering rack has already been replaced twice within 3 years. The vehicle is model year 2024, and to have an unrepaired defect like this is ridiculous. This is a major safety iss…

The steering gear/rack on my 2024 Honda Accord Hybrid has failed twice. The original rack was replaced under warranty at 36,330 miles (January 2026). At approximately 41,000 miles I returned to the dealer reporting the same symptoms, but it was not diagnosed.

When I go to start the vehicle, it takes multiple seconds to actually start. It continues to turn over and over before finally starting up. This happens 3-4 times a day depending on how often I drive. This also creates a bad gas fume, fuel smell. This doesn't seem like something that a 2024 Honda should experience. I am a new owner to the car and have not t…

The drivers side mirror shifts backwards when when hitting 25-30 MPH and forward again when stopping. I have asked the dealer to look at it multiple times when I take the car in for service and the complaint seems to be ignored or skipped over. Anyone that has driven the car in my family has mentioned it and that it is very distracting. We have had the c…

Roughly a month or two after purchasing my 2024 Honda accord hybrid sport, I noticed a chirping noise when driving and a slight steering problem. I took the car in, and they told me that it was the steering rack and they replaced it. About 4 months after that, I noticed that there was a slight steering issue, where I would be in a turn and the wheel would…

Attempted to turn car on and it did not turn on. It asked me to place my key fob on my “push to start” button. After doing this nothing happened. I went and grabbed my spare key fob and still it did nothing. Eventually got it towed in and dealer confirmed it was a bad body control module. There was no warning light or message prior to this
