This car's evaporator is defective. Evaporator failure left many individuals, including myself, without air conditioning. In California, where I live, the temperature can rise above 100 degrees. Due to the leak and the high flammability of the freon, it is a safety risk. Additionally, drivers who must commute in hot weather may have dehydration due to the lack of air conditioning. Whenever i'm traveling the heat makes me feel weak and dizzy. Honda dealerships charge between $1,500 and $2,000 for repairs. I believe a recall should be issued to repair the entire A/C system in Honda vehicles from 2017 to 2019.

When driving at highway speeds the steering is stiff or notchy when trying to return the steering wheel to center. It binds, then breaks free which causes the steering wheel to move further than intended and the car to swerve.

When driving at highway speeds the steering is stiff or notchy when trying to return the steering wheel to center. It binds, then breaks free which causes the steering wheel to move further than intended and the car to swerve. We have not brought it to the dealer for this problem yet but plan to in the coming days. It seems this is a very common issue and in my opinion creates a dangerous situation and could cause an accident. The NHTSA site asks for a specific date but it has been happening regularly for quite some time.
