2014 HONDA ACCORD — Complaint #1733889
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC):CONTROL MODULE filed March 15, 2021
NHTSA complaint #1733889 (ODI reference 11403064) concerns a 2014 HONDA ACCORD and was filed on March 15, 2021. The owner reports the failure occurred on March 9, 2021. The vehicle had 86,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Massachusetts based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as electronic stability control (esc):control module, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same HONDA ACCORD cohort independently describe similar electronic stability control (esc):control module failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data. Related filings for the same vehicle and component appear below, and the detail page for the full 2014 HONDA ACCORD shows the complete component-level complaint distribution alongside any active investigations or recalls.
