Example complaints

“We were driving on a straight section of road at 80mph on I-24 e when the engine light came on and we lost power to the wheels but the engine was still running. There was no jerking motion or any sign of trouble when this happened. We had to coast in heavy traffic with semi-trucks all around us to get to the right hand shoulder for a safe place. Honda's reply to the dealer was to change the oil out if there was gas in the oil. There was gas in the oil when the dealer checked so they replaced the oil. …”
NHTSA complaint #11330807, filed 2020-06, 12,500 miles“My Honda sensing system has serious and dangerous malfunctions. When driving, the brake assist will beep and flash brake at me when there are no obstacles anywhere near the vehicle and on more than one occasion has actually braked and slowed the vehicle substantially. Additionally, the lane departure warning comes on when I haven't left the lane, and also will brake when it is not only unnecessary but very dangerous, such as when I was driving in the fast lane on the freeway with cars traveling behind me.”
NHTSA complaint #11302863, filed 2020-01, 6,000 miles“When on interstate in middle or left lane and passing car in lane to the right, with no car ahead in sensor distance, brakes can suddenly be applied. I contacted hondausa and was referred to dealer, which was coggin Honda, st augustine, fl. Vehicle inspected, spoke to mechanic, who said he is hesitant to adjust forward sensor cone on vehicle. For safety reasons, I now travel on interstates using traditional cruise control. I do not want to be rear ended if a vehicle behind is tailgating and my brakes are suddenly applied. I cannot always get out of the way of a tailgater. …”
NHTSA complaint #11416254, filed 2021-05, 6,000 miles“Under certain lightning or glare conditions, the CR-V's automatic braking comes on. It recently happened to me on three occasions. In the first it was on the t. R. Bridge, leading into dc, at 7 am, when the sunlight from the east was causing glare. The CR-V braked automatically while going at about 45 MPH when there was no vehicle in front of mine. In the second and third instances, it was when I was on I-66 east on the overpass over the capital beltway at 8:30 pm traveling at about 55 MPH. The CR-V's brake warning came on when there was no vehicle in front or next to the vehicle. …”
NHTSA complaint #11255192, filed 2019-09, 5,000 miles“Vehicle has been observed to undergo unnecessary emergency braking operations during the use of the adaptive cruise control system. The vehicle seems to be sensing something that's not actually present and this causes it to brake rapidly. The problem is not repeatable when driving the same route under similar conditions. This is an ongoing problem that has been brought up with the Honda dealer but as yet remains an unresolved intermittent problem.”
