“While parked in my driveway I received a number of error messages when I started the car. Car is now at Honda dealer since 4/5/2018. I was told the large battery needs to be replaced and it is not safe to drive the car. Dealer unable to give me an eta on the battery. Many other owners are experiencing these similar error codes.”
NHTSA complaint #11088371, filed 2018-04, 3,800 miles“Vehicle's safety features (brake assist and/or collision mitigation braking system) will activate either excessively or occasionally when there is no obstruction whatsoever. The full force braking in traffic for no apparent reason could easily cause another vehicle to crash into mine.”
NHTSA complaint #11268550, filed 2019-10, 15,000 miles“The infotainment display camera combination is the worst system in any vehicle I’ve seen that has these installed. If it is daylight the screen is nearly impossible to see anything plainly. Someone is going to back into other vehicles or people. This occurs every day the car is used and backed up while the sun is up.”
NHTSA complaint #11517949, filed 2023-04“The A/C isn't working (AGAIN!) this time due to a leak in the A/C evaporator. The dealership just replaced the condensor 7 mos ago and now the evaporator is bad. Honda's whole A/C seems to be a problem for everyone.”
