2018 Honda Accord: Recalls, Complaints and Vehicle Data
Records last imported Oct 31, 2026 · Published · By CarTold Editorial Team
Before you buy a 2018 Accord
-
Open investigation
NHTSA has one open investigation covering this year: EA24002 (engineering analysis into the forward collision avoidance since Apr 2024). An open investigation is a question NHTSA is asking, not a finding of a defect.
-
Recalls vs. other years
With 6 recall campaigns, the 2018 Accord ties for the most of the six model years we cover (2016–2021).
-
Where complaints cluster
Complaints are spread out; the most-reported components are engine (367, of which 4 mention a crash, 2 a fire and 1 an injury), electrical system (284, of which 11 mention a crash, 3 a fire and 5 an injury) and forward collision avoidance (176, of which 4 an injury). Across all 2,013 reports, 38 describe a crash, 5 a fire and 28 at least one injury.
-
Complaints vs. other years
Owners have filed 2,013 complaints about the 2018 Accord, about 3.4 times the typical year for this model (599), and more than some older years that have had longer to collect reports.
-
Recent reports
366 complaints (18% of the total) were filed in the last 12 months, so owners are still reporting problems, most often about the engine (157).
-
Changes from 2017
EPA lists a 1.5-litre four-cylinder for 2018 that does not appear in the 2017 listing; the 2.4-litre four-cylinder and 3.5-litre six-cylinder are listed for 2017 but not for 2018; five recall campaigns name one of the two years and not the other (back over prevention, electrical system, fuel system and others).
-
Fuel economy and running cost
Its most efficient version (2-litre 4-cylinder hybrid) is rated 47 mpg combined, better than most for the 2018 sedans we cover (median 32 mpg across 30 other EPA listings); the thirstiest version is rated 26 mpg. At 15,000 miles a year and the national average regular gasoline price of $4.28 (EIA, week of Oct 19, 2026), fuel would cost about $1,370 a year in the most efficient version and about $2,470 in the thirstiest.
Complaint trends
2,013 complaints on file with NHTSA, by category.
Top components as NHTSA logged them:
- Engine — 259 complaints (13%)
- Forward collision avoidance — 160 complaints (8%)
- Fuel system, gasoline — 141 complaints (7%)
- Unknown or other — 134 complaints (7%)
- Fuel/propulsion system — 106 complaints (5%)
- Service brakes — 98 complaints (5%)
What owners told NHTSA
Short excerpts from owner reports submitted to NHTSA. They are unverified and describe one vehicle each.
“Noticed that the engine temperature was slightly higher normal (went to 5 bars when always at 4) I checked and the fan was running properly and had coolant in the overflow tank.”
“The contact owns a 2018 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving approximately 10 MPH, there was smoke coming from underneath the hood of the vehicle, and a fuel odor was entering the cabin of the vehicle.”
“The car hesitates upon acceleration and when it “misses” enough it will flash the engine on the dashboard, and not allow any further acceleration, going into “limp mode”.”
