   The original ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) module in my 2014 Honda Accord failed approximately 3 years ago. The ABS warning light came on and the system stopped functioning properly. ABS modules are designed to last the life of the vehicle, but this one failed after just a few years of normal use. Due to the high cost of a new OEM module, I purchased a used Honda ABS module from a junkyard as a replacement. The replacement module is now also failing with the same symptoms…

   when driving the vehicle 7/25/26 my fcw/brake light came on. I felt very insecure for safety reasons and we contacted a local mechanic who specializes in honda and foreign vehicles. We have photos and invoices from the auto shop and we had to rent a vehicle. We are rited with 1 vehicle and my wife was going to visit her mother.

   The ABS module is designed to fail after an extended period of time, leaving the owner to drive in dangerous conditions unless they pay thousands of dollars for the necessary repairs. This is essentially extortion, and the owners need to be held accountable. Our society runs the risk of being ran by parasitic, profit-driven, morally bankrupt individuals unless the issue is resolved appropriately. Thank you!

   The VSA module failed, causing 5 warning lights to illuminate. This module controls ABS, traction control, and power steering. All of these systems involve the safe operation of the vehicle. The module failed due to a flawed design; the module contains 20-30 very fine connecting wires that frequently break due to vibration and temperature changes. VBS module failures are extremely common on 2008-20017 Honda Accords. Honda charges up to $4,000 to repair their flawed design to…

   While driving the car at approx 45mph on a busy roadway the vehicle suddenly accelerated heavily I tried applying the breaks but the pedal did not go down and had no affect of slowing the vehicle. I was forced to swerve around several vehicles to avoid a collision then just as suddenly the car returned to normal operation. The duration on the incident was approx 5 to 10 seconds. Very dangerous and very scary.

   I purchased this used vehicle. I have never received any recall information on this vehicle. The electric power steering system, tire pressure and the vehicle stability Assist indicators lit up after a successful vehicle inspection was conducted Thursday 11132025. A 2023 recall, identified by the NHTSA AS 23V-430, covers the issue and requires dealerships to replace the VSA modulator. I contacted the dealership and they told me they could not assist.

    ABS, traction control, power steering, parking lights go on and off. ABS control module throws code DTC 121-11; VSA Solenoid Valve Malfunction. Been going off and on for a few weeks. No warning before the lights came on. Heard this is a common problem with the early 2010s Honda Accords that needs a recall. Pulled the code from a personal OBDII scanner.

    ABS warning light went on after having front L&R axle replaced because it broke or drive shaft broke . Had rear brakes done at same time calipers rotors and pads. Also emergency brake fixed. Less than a week later ABs light went on a long with Ebrake and power steering lights and traction light . Would initially go on and off now mostly on.. Machanic said it reads Abs module. Seems coincidental that it went on a week after drive shaft broke. However after research this very…

    I am writing to report a persistent and dangerous safety defect in my 2014 Honda Accord involving the VSA (Vehicle Stability Assist) / ABS / ABS modulator / ABS ECU system. The ABS, VSA, and other warning lights have been on for years, first noticing around 60-70,000 miles indicating an ongoing fault in the system. The dealer has diagnosed a bad ABS/VSA modulator and/or ECU and stated this is a common issue and that often this part is on backorder. Most recently, while…
