When one opens the trunk of the parked car, the trunk door quickly opens all the way and then quickly bounces back part way, sometimes hitting the head of whoever it is that is standing next to the trunk door.

Very easy to accidentally cause all windows to fully open in locked car when keyfob is in pocket. This has caused car interior to become soaked including contents and gives full access to all contents and trunk. This could be extremely dangerous in a city environment as someone could enter car and hide in back at night. This happens when car is parked and locked.

The vehicle was considered totaled with an estimate of $22000-$25000 in damages. The front airbags never deployed. In my research, 2012 honda's had a recall regarding side airbags not deploying…

I have found that at night, the headlight sensor overcompensates when detecting headlight beams cast by the opposing lanes of traffic. The sensor then forces the headlight sensor to immediately turn off our vehicle's headlights, leaving the driving shrouded in complete darkness. When driving at 70 or more miles an hour on a highway, these momentary seconds of darkness are all that are needed to cause a fatal mistake…

The mechanism for releasing the fuel door is a latch/button located inside the vehicle near the driver side floor. Depressing the mechanism is supposed to release the exterior fuel door so that gasoline can be filled into the vehicle. The mechanism does not work. Upon repeated pressing of the button, the fuel door will not open. Eventually, prying a flat object into the spacing between the fuel door and the body is…
