Example complaints
Forward collision avoidance: “On a two way lane highway, vehicle detects on coming traffic and causes sudden deceleration of vehicle and braking which can cause being rear ended by another vehicle. This also occurs on multi lane freeways when going in the same direction the vehicle will detect a vehicle in the lane next to me braking and again cause the vehicle to decelerate and brake which could cause an accident. Occurs at least once or twice a week. I have a video of the issue which might be better”
NHTSA complaint #11689698, filed 2025-09Other or unknown: “Sunroof spontaneously exploded on the highway. Was maintaining a good distance between my car and the car in front of me, so I doubt it was a rock that was kicked up that broke my sunroof. Glass looks like it broke from inside out.”
NHTSA complaint #11676844, filed 2025-07Vehicle speed control: “The vehicle unexpectedly began accelerating from a creep with no accelerator input. Acceleration ceased immediately as soon a the brake pedal was touched. No actual braking was required--simply a touch on the pedal. Acceleration was as if the accelerator pedal had been pressed about 1/4 down. It lasted about 1.5 seconds from initiation to touching the brake pedal. The pavement was not on a grade but was substantially level. This is the 3rd or 4th such incident in the last few months. In the other incidents I was unsure if it was my imagination or some unrelated factor like grade. …”
NHTSA complaint #11671348, filed 2025-07Brakes: “I am reporting a serious and recurring safety defect involving my 2025 Honda Civic Sport Touring Hybrid. This is the second occurrence of a serious vehicle malfunction, and the vehicle has experienced numerous other significant problems during my ownership. During the most recent incident, I was traveling approximately 45 MPH when the vehicle experienced a sudden loss of power. I was unable to accelerate, the vehicle shut off while I was in the middle of the roadway, and the vehicle subsequently went into limp mode. …”
