Honda Accord Recalls (2010-2025)
The Honda Accord has been the subject of 37 recall campaigns on record with NHTSA across the 2010 to 2025 model years. They cluster mostly around the air bags, fuel system, and electrical system.
The Honda Accord scores 33 out of 100 (grade D), a busier recall record than most. That score reflects how serious the recalls are rather than how many. 86% involve a critical safety system, none carried a do-not-drive warning, and 30% were issued in the last three years. How the score works.
Those 37 campaigns span 16 model years of the Honda Accord. The single largest affected 2,719,386 vehicles, over air bags. A recall repair is free at a franchised dealer and most never expire, so an older open recall is still worth fixing. Beyond recalls, you can also see the most common Accord problems owners report and its crash-test safety ratings.
The full record is below, grouped first by model year and then listed in detail. Each entry gives the defect NHTSA describes, the safety risk it creates, the manufacturer's remedy, the number of vehicles in that campaign, and the dates. A recall covers a whole production run, so a campaign listed for the Honda Accord may not apply to your exact vehicle, and one you have already had repaired will still appear in the history. To see what is actually open and unfixed on a specific car, check its 17-digit VIN.

- How many times has the Honda Accord been recalled?
- The Honda Accord has 37 recall campaigns from the 2010 to 2025 model years. A single campaign often covers several model years at once, so the number of recalls is not the same as the number of years affected.
