“T.p.m.s. - light comes on regularly, without tires being at incorrect pressures. Random occurrences sometimes tires are low, sometimes they are perfectly set. This is a safety issue and concerns me, as this could cause a wreck. The tire pressue monitoring system is faulty, Honda repair facilities have been unable to correct the issue. I have repeatedly taken it to two (2) Honda dealerships' service departments - one in brunswick, georgia (nalley Honda), and the other was in loves park, illinois (napleton Honda). …”

NHTSA complaint #11508258, filed 2023-02“I live on a dirt road. When the road is wet, the wheels collect mud around the rear surface while driving, then the mud settles to the bottom while the car is stationary, dries, and throws the wheels out of balance. Sometimes the wheels are so badly unbalanced they shake violently above 50 MPH and is impossible to drive safely at highway speeds. This began happening almost immediately after purchasing the car new in 2016. I took the car to the dealer for inspection and repair of this problem several times. Their solution was to remove, wash and remount the wheels. …”
