All Accord Sedan models have a standard anti-lock braking system (ABS) and standard dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags (SRS) as well as front side and side curtain airbags.
On V-6 models, we added a Traction Control System (TCS) too. And our efforts are getting results. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) named the Accord Sedan a Best Pick after it received top ratings in offset-frontal crash tests. No other car tested in its class could match that feat. And the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) gave the Accord Sedan 5-star ratings in its frontal-impact tests.*

The anti-lock braking system (ABS) uses a special modulator to pulse the brakes to help prevent wheel lockup. This helps the driver retain steering control when braking hard.
The side-impact door beams help provide protection in a side impact.
The front and rear crush zones provide driver and passenger protection in moderate-to-severe full-frontal and offset-frontal impacts.
The system immobilizes the engine's fuel injection and ignition, and only a matching digital code in the ignition key can override it. When the driver puts the key into the ignition switch, the switch transmits a signal that reads the code in the key. If the key code agrees with the code in the immobilizer control unit, the powertrain control module (PCM) starts the engine.
In the event of a moderate-to-severe frontal impact, the dual-stage, dual-threshold front airbags (SRS) inflate and deflate in a fraction of a second and are designed to help prevent serious head and upper-body injuries.
All five seats are equipped with 3-point seat belts. The rear seat features the LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) mounting system for use with compatible child seats.
Front 3-point seat belts with an automatic tensioning system ride across the lap and chest to help restrain occupants during sudden stops or impact.
In the event of a moderate-to-severe side impact, the side airbag inflates to help protect the driver's or front passenger's upper body. Plus the Occupant Position Detection System (OPDS) utilizes sensors in the front passenger's seatback to detect the height and seating position of the occupant. If a child or small-statured adult is leaning into the deployment path of the side airbag, sensors deactivate it.
The side curtain airbag module is positioned along the side of the headliner. In the event of a sufficient side impact, this system will activate to help provide protection for both front and rear passengers. A new type of inflator provides an exceptionally quick inflation time.
