    Collision mitigation braking system activated for no reason, on surface roads and highway speeds, vehicle slammed on brakes automatically, there is nothing on the road in front of the car. This has occurred numerous times. Dealerships told me that there was no registration in the warranty system because they were unable to fix the problem so no record of this problem was sent to honda usa.

    I live in rochester ny and even with very light snow that is not even collecting on the roadway i get an urgent notification that crash avoidance and any radar based safety systems are compromised and not available at this time. This is due to the radar unit being interfered with snow collection as it is in the shape of a square cup and it collects snow like a scoop. There is no heating element on the unit at all to…

    Since purchasing the vehicle in july and especially over the course of the last two months the car has been exhibiting errors with the cpu (honda sensing) system on board. The transmission also seems to exhibit issues which i have taken up with the dealership on two occasions where it appears to shift hard under light acceleration and even under passing power. Also, upon accelerating, the car will seem to bog down…

    Automatic emergency braking took car from 60 to 0 on highway (route 65n in nashville). Luckily no one was behind me (it was 6am) or i could have been rear-ended. I could not accelerate or control the car at this point and came to a complete stop. This is the second time this has happened in the last month. This turns a touted safety feature into a hazardous feature. Planning on a dealer visit this friday

    Just like others have said, i'm also having an issue with the sensitivity of my brake pedal. The brake feels like there are steps to it instead of a smooth linear pedal. I have never driven a car with a brake pedal like this. From the first stop leaving the dealership after buying my 2018 honda accord 1.5, i knew something was wrong with the brakes. The pedal feels binary like the brakes are either on or off and not…
