The 2015 Honda Accord is equipped with a comprehensive airbag system, which includes:

Dual-Stage, Multiple-Threshold Front Airbags

  • With the ability to inflate at different rates based on factors like crash severity, these airbags supplement the seat belts to mitigate injury in the event of a crash.

SmartVent Front Side Airbags

  • These airbags maximize potential protection for front occupants in the event of a moderate-to-severe side impact. The unique design allows the airbags to vent if occupant is in the deployment path, reducing airbag-related injury.

Side Curtain Airbags

  • A rollover sensor module will activate the side curtain airbags in the event of a sufficient side impact.

Forward Collision & Lane Departure Warnings

In the Accord EX-L and above, a small camera mounted on the windshield can analyze your surroundings including vehicles in front of you and lane markings on the road. If the system calculates you are at risk for a front collusion or are making an un-indicated lane departure, it will alert you with visual and/or audible alerts.

Outboard LATCH Mounting System

The Accord makes securing child seats easy with the Lower Anchors and Tethers for children system on the rear outboard seats.

Tire Pressure Monitoring System

By monitoring the pressure in all four tires, this system helps you stay on top of your fuel economy and tire safety.

Vehicle Stability Assist with Traction Control

The Accord helps during under- or oversteer conditions by braking individual wheels or reducing engine power accordingly.
