Consumer Description

I work at a dealership. we have sold 2 2018 Honda accords where all the lights have popped on the dash multiple times. the first one went to the Honda dealer for a diagnostic and came back with fuel injector issues. after replaced, it went back and was told there was a blown head gasket and turbo. the second accord went to a different Honda dealer for a diag and once again was told it was a blown head gasket and turbo. after researching this issue I've found it is a common issue which starts with a misfire, all lights on the dash, and fuel injectors. no one has had any blown head gasket signs as the car overheating or coolant mixed with oil. we have received a third 2018 accord which arrived with a misfire. we have changed spark plugs 4 times as well as the coils. when starting the car it shakes aggressively as if it wants to stall and all the lights keep popping on the dash - the same signs as the previous vehicles. taking it to the dealer for a diagnosis and either it comes back with injectors - which will eventually lead to the head gasket, or straight into the head gasket being blown. there needs to be a recall at least so we are not wasting time and money with all these diagnostics and repairs.
