2023 Honda CR-V Brakes Problems

“I was driving on the freeway on Saturday 5/23/26 when a helium balloon flew into my lane. The vehicle suddenly applied maximum braking on its own without any dashboard warning, alert sound, or driver notification. It was so severe the tires were screeching. The accelerator was unresponsive for several seconds before I was able to accelerate again. This created a dangerous situation because I could have been rear-ended by another car.”

“I was driving on Octuber 8th 2025. At 50 mph and the car made a sudden hard brake stop, and the brake orage light came on, the light that only turns on when it detect a car or something in front of the vehicle, the thing is nothing was in front of the vehicle, I am lucky that I didn't have cars behind me if not it would have cause a read end accident. This is very dangerous and I am super scared to drive the car now.”

“I applied my brake pedal to slow for traffic just before entering a roundabout. I came nearly to a full stop, but then with my foot still on the brake pedal, the car surged forward as if I had floored the gas pedal. I kept pressing very hard on the brake pedal, but the car kept speeding forward. I was able to steer in between 2 oncoming cars without hitting them. My left front tire then hit the curb and the car bounced off a metal traffic sign post. I then went down a steep dirt embankment and crashed into a swale with some large rocks. …”

“I was braking pulling forward into a parking place, going approximately 10 mph. The brakes did not work , the car accelerated jumped a curb ran over a parking sign and did not stop.

I do not know if I ran over something, nothing was in my sight or view. Due to all of the smoke I quickly turned off the car and tried to get out. …”

“I was driving in the left lane of a two lane street. Due to construction, the right hand lane had orange construction barrels. All of a sudden, alarms went off, in RED LETTERS the word BRAKE! appeared on my dashboard and the car automatically braked - hard. There was no obstruction of any kind in my lane. All the items on my seats flew to the floor. The seat belt wrenched me back. I now have a mild sore shoulder, neck and back. If someone had been following me, they certainly would have hit me due to the sudden, unexplained stop. …”
