Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I was driving on the street about 15 miles per hour when the car sensor sensed something in front of my car and stopped automatically when there was nothing in front of me. Almost caused a rear-end accident, luckily, the car behind was able to stop”
NHTSA complaint #11735969, filed 2026-05“My car slammed on the brakes on its own. I was almost rear ended. I was going 45-50 miles an hour. I think it saw a shadow. Previously it has alerted me to brake because of shadows. This is the first time it braked hard on its own.”
NHTSA complaint #11758011, filed 2026-08“I came to a stop at a stop sign. Then auto off shut off the engine. Next, the vehicle went into park. A message came on screen telling me to press the brake and the start button. Doing so had no effect. Cars behind me started honking. After repeatedly stabbing the start button and opening and closing my driver's door, the vehicle eventually rebooted, and the engine started as normal. This caused a dangerous situation where other cars went into opposing traffic to get around me.”
NHTSA complaint #11697301, filed 2025-11“I have experienced numerous instances where my car will stall at a stop light and then fail to restart, even with switching gears to park before resuming to drive.. I have had to turn on and off the engine multiple times at a si hole stoplight before the car would resume movement. This scenario has now happened at least 3 times. I am a mom driving a minivan of kids and this is concerning for our safety. These are not long stop lights. Sometimes even at a stop light I feel a strange pulling sensation.”
NHTSA complaint #11754288, filed 2026-08“Normal speed of 25mph on a clear warm day with no road obstructions when the BRAKE System Indicator (Red) illuminated. I pressed on the brake and had severe resistance and was barely able to stop the car. Two more indicators illuminated. One I believe was the Vehicle Stability Assist and the other I don't recall. The screen flashed Call your Dealer . The Owners Manual states Have your vehicle repaired immediately. The vehicle was hauled to Southeast Honda. Codes UO416-680416-F8, U0418-68, U3000-49I. The Brake Booster was replaced. …”
