Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“My ignition-park interlock is faulty but isn't under the current recall. It may be common sense to put the e-brake on when parking but not everyone is perfect, my vehicle has nearly rolled away multiple times now. Luckily I caught it in time to stop it from crashing. Also if I do leave the vehicle in d4 with the e-brake on, ignition key out of course, and I leave the vehicle parked, someone could break in and push it away. Regardless what I showed the dealership, they told me to contact Honda of america to file a complaint. I just did that and got told the same thing.”
