At Honda, we've always liked making the world a safer place, so some of our best thinking goes into things we hope you never use. The Accord's wide range of safety features includes Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA), Honda's stability control technology, which comes standard on every model.
A 4-channel Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) enhances the Accord's braking safety. EBD automatically adjusts the braking power applied to each wheel to achieve optimal control and stability.
All Accord models feature sophisticated dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags, as well as dual-chamber side airbags. They help protect the driver and front passenger from injuries associated with both high and low-speed collisions. In addition, full-length curtain airbags also help provide maximum cabin protection for front and rear passengers.

When a collision can't be avoided, the Accord protects occupants with Honda's G-Force Control Technology (G-CON) and Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE). G-CON and ACE help absorb and disperse impact forces away from the passenger cabin. ACE also helps reduce the risk of under-ride or over-ride in the case of a collision with a larger or smaller vehicle.
Honda's Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) with Traction Control System (TCS) detects oversteer, understeer and traction loss, and helps restore your intended path by applying brake pressure and controlling engine power to help keep you safely on the road.

To help reduce head and neck injuries, the front seats are fitted with active head restraints. In the case of a rear collision, these restraints move up and forward to keep head movement to a minimum.
The Accord's security alarm system includes an engine immobiliser, which automatically disables the engine unless the correct electronically-encoded key is inserted in the ignition.
When you're a parent, it helps to be flexible. With child seat anchorages for every rear seat, you’ll have all the seating flexibility you need.
The V6 Luxury model makes reversing and getting into tight spaces safer and easier. A reversing camera shows you exactly how much room you have to move.
