“The car was in cruise control going 73mph on the freeway. I was passing a semi on the left hand side. When I was parallel to the semi, the car brakes hard and a big BRAKE light came on the cluster. There were no cars in front of me and luckily no one behind me. If there was a car behind me there would have been a collision. It was a clear day and again the road was clear.

NHTSA complaint #11678709, filed 2025-08“When car has been stopped, in traffic or parking lot, the parking/emergency brake has engaged automatically (NOT engaged manually or intentionally by driver) and will not disengage automatically when accelerator is pressed to go forward. It is difficult to disengage the brake when this occurs. This has happened on 3 occasions. The safety risk for crash includes being hit from behind if brake engages unintentionally in traffic or on highway, or potentially sudden unintentional stopping while driving at moderate or high speeds. …”

Passing a tractor trailer going slower in the right lane, the car will apply the brakes unexpectedly. The dash will briefly show a ghost truck crossing into the left lane. The unexpected braking causes any vehicle behind the Accord to brake. Putting those vehicles and any behind them at risk. Smart Honda of Des Moines looked at the car on Sept. 22, 2025 reported no error codes and nothing could be done. If the Accord hugs the far left shoulder, no ghost breaking occurs. …”
