Safety Features

Whether you are looking at the standard safety features or Honda’s available high-tech safety options, it’s clear that every 2015 Honda Accord is built for safety from its frame to its finish. Modern features like the standard rearview camera and available accident prevention systems combine with traditional safety features like airbags and anti-lock brakes to make one of the safest cars on the market.

And the Accord has the safety awards to prove it, earning a Five-Star Overall Safety Rating from the NHTSA and being named a TOP SAFETY PICK by the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety.

• Advanced Compatibility Engineering (ACE) Body Structure: The ACE body structure not only has crumple zones to help minimize damage to passenger areas, it is actively designed to redirect crash energy away from passengers.
• Rearview Camera: Standard on all Accords, the rearview camera comes with guidelines to make backing up easier. EX-L and above models are equipped with a multi-view camera that gives you three different angles when backing up.
• Anti-Lock Braking System: Four-wheel anti-lock disc brakes are standard on Accord models and will automatically pump the brakes in the event of hard braking to help prevent wheel lockup.
• Smart Airbags: The Accord has SmartVent front side airbags that deploy immediately and then can vent when they come into contact with a passenger to help cushion them, dual-stage multi-threshold airbags respond to the height and weight of the driver and front passenger to help reduce the risk of injury, and side curtain airbags deploy if a rollover is detected.
• Smart Warning Systems: Select Accord models have forward collision warning and lane departure warning systems to alert you when it detects that you are drifting from your lane or when a forward collision is imminent.
• Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children (LATCH): Rear outboard seats feature the LATCH system for mounting child safety seats to ensure that your LATCH-compatible car seats are secure.
• Tire Pressure Monitoring System: Under-inflated tires hurt your fuel economy and reduce the responsiveness of a vehicle. The tire pressure monitoring system alerts you when any of your four tires are below standard pressure.
• Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control: During oversteer or understeer, the Accord can reduce engine power and/or brake individual wheels to help keep you on your intended course.
