Keep getting LANE KEEPING and ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL errors randomly as well as BRAKE SYSTEM warning lights. Took to Honda and they said my camera and radar were functioning fine and recalibrated to be sure. I’m still receiving error messages daily.

Keep receiving LKAS, Adaptive Cruise Control and collision mitigation errors on my car. Started once every few months and would reset after the car would be turned off and on. Now, the warning stays on. Both sensor areas are clean and unobstructed.

On February 5th I was taking my car out to the grocery store. All of a sudden my lights turned on and as soon as I'm going up the hill, going back home the car starts to shake uncrontrollably. I check my car under the hood toes what is going on, all of my wiring had been damaged, even the battery was damaged. I later bought the new wiring and and battery and had it replaced. After a few days at the mechanic I was able to get my car back but the mechanic said that due to the fact of the material that Honda is making their wiring which is the soy bean material, animal love to eat from that it has been something that he has seen for quite some time. Anyway I thought it might've been from the location of where I parked the night before when I had to go outside of town because I always park right in front of my house and its the first time. February 17th, I was pulling out of my parking spot and noticed that my car wasn't breaking as it should be so therefore I stopped the car and opened my door and immediately when I look under the hood I knew animals had gotten into from the pile of leaves and sticks on top of of everything and afterwards the car just turned off all by itself. I am now experiencing the exact same thing which puts my life at risk because the car just stops working mid ride and I could be on a whole highway and cause a collision. If they know that this is something that animals look for to eat I think that it is not safe to use for a car cause I could have been in danger for both these events if I were to be on the highway and my car just decided to stop functioning I could've been in a different circumstances,

1. Driving on the freeway with multiple lanes. I driver cuts across multiple lanes and even though they only stayed 1 second in front of me and jumped into another lane, Honda thinks it's time to apply the brake after they have merged over to next lane. Applying the brakes when nobody is in front of me! 35mph 2. I can be 25 feet behind a car. That car happens to be making a turn at an intersection. It clears my path, but it's stuck just at the corner of the other street because traffic isn't flowing for them. I have 100% clear of path. And guess what, Honda decides to slam on the brakes because it saw the vehicle is about a foot away from my lane stopped. Honda can't tell the difference if I'm going straight or following the car that turned so it thinks it's better to slam on the brakes when in question. Very dangerous! 40mph 3. When on a multi lane freeway. I have no car in front of me but there is a vehicle in another lane. As I try to pass the vehicle, my Civic applies the brakes when the road isn't straight but very slightly curved. In my opinion it's not calculating at all that we are in a curve. It seems like Honda is not using vision from camera to tell the lanes and lane markers and also the steering wheel. But it only detects that somehow we will collide. 65mph A dangerous system and shouldn't be allowed until the bug is fixed with software update. So far Honda hasn't acknowledged anything. I have to gather all my footage and share it with you, maybe through youtube? There are no warnings, no problems with the car. This is clearly a software issue. Honda dealer told me there is no software update for this when I question Honda Serramonte Colma CA when I brought my vehicle in for failed AC. Service writer said "these things can happen, just try to drive more cautiously"

Key-less start system problem.... Car has 55000 miles and has been serviced at local Honda dealer on time every time. Car will start up in accessory mode after being turned off and goes into alarm. To turn off alarm I have to use door key. Keyless Remote does not work during the alarm stage and will work after restarting car. I have to unhook battery to keep car from alarming. I have already had remote replaced and reprogrammed. I have to go through a new system reset every time I use the car. Honda could not find a code error. I am concerned this is a major and dangerous problem with the electrical system, possibly control module or push start button. I have read numerous complaints of this issue online from many different Honda models including mine.

2020 I HAVEN'T USED THE CAR MUCH DO TO COVID-19. MAYBE 1000 MILES. FEBRUARY 2021 I NOTICED THE COLD AIR CONDITIONING DOESN'T WORK PROPERLY. SEEMS THAT THE AIR ONLY BLOWS. I JUST DISCOVERED TODAY THAT HONDA SEEMS TO HAVE ISSUES WITH AC CONDENSERS. I SENT AN EMAIL TO HONDA TO SEE IF MY VIN HAS THE WARRANTY FOR THE CONDENSER. I WILL INSPECT IT AND SEE IF THAT'S WHAT IS GOING ON. CAR HAS 40K MILES. 2017 SEDAN EX 2.0L NEED AC TO DEFOG WINDSHIELD FOR VISIBILITY! AND KEEP ME COOL SO I CAN OPERATE THE VEHICLE SAFELY! I'M NOT SURE IF IT FAILED AT SOME POINT IN 2020. BUT I JUST NOTICED IT NOW DURING SOME VERY HOT DAYS. AUTOMATIC BREAKING SHOULD HAVE RECALL. WHEN I DRIVE AND SOMEONE IN FRONT JUMPS ACROSS MY LANE TO GET INTO ANOTHER LANE, THE CAR WILL SLAM THE BRAKES AFTER THE CAR IN FRONT IS ALREADY LEFT THE LANE AND IT'S INSIDE ANOTHER LANE. THAT'S A VERY DELAYED RESPONSE AND UNNECESSARY BECAUSE OTHER CARS BEHIND ME NEED TO GET ON THE BRAKE HARD TO AVOID HITTING ME. I TRY TO FLOOR IT IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS BUT THE SYSTEM WON'T LET ME. THE ONLY THING THIS LEAVES ME TO DO IS DISABLED THE SYSTEM BY HOLDING DOWN THE BUTTON. BUT THAT REMOVES THE SAFETY FEATURES. SOMETIMES SOMEONE IN FRONT OF ME BRAKES FAST SUDDENLY. I JUMP TO ANOTHER LANE AND THE SYSTEM APPLIES THE BRAKES ONCE I ALREADY JUMPED INTO ANOTHER LANE WITH NOBODY IN IT. HOWEVER IF THERE IS SOMEONE BEHIND, THEN THE PERSON HONKS BECAUSE THE CAR JUST SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES! I HAVE VIDEO PROOF OF THIS. IT'S AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN
