ON 1/8/20 WHEN I STARTED MY CAR IN THE MORNING ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON BEFORE LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY, AND STAYED ON ALL THE WAY TO WORK, AND BACK. THEN AGAIN THE FOLLOWING MORNING. I CALLED HONDA ON 1/9/20, THEY ADVISED TO COME IN SOONER THAN LATER. CAR IS AT HONDA NOW 1/10/20, THEY ARE STATING ALL CODES MAY BE DUE TO TWO CODES THAT NEED TO BE FIXED: P0302 (FUEL INJECTION), WHICH IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND U0129 LOST COMMUNICATION WITH BRAKING SYSTEM DUE TO A/C CONTROL UNIT - WHICH WILL COST ME $1630 FOR A CAR WITH ONLY 60,000 MILES ON IT! OF NOTE: THE CAR'S EMERGENCY BRAKE WHILE DRIVING HAS TRIGGERED A COUPLE OF TIMES, AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS HAVE COME ON BEFORE IN HEAVY RAIN.

MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING WARNING INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGIN TO FLASH (ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM, LANE KEEP ASSIST SYSTEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM AND BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT). WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THESE SYSTEMS NO LONGER FUNCTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT HIGH AND LOW SPEED WITH ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ON AND OFF, ON HIGHWAYS AND FREEWAYS. EACH TIME, I FIND A PLACE TO STOP, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, AND BACK ON AGAIN AND THE SYSTEMS ARE FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES, THE FIRST BEING WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE NEW AND THE LAST BEING YESTERDAY (2 1/2 YEARS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE) I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY SAY THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND FIND NO ERROR CODES SO NOTHING CAN BE DONE. DOCUMENTATION HAS BEEN GIVEN TO THE DEALER ON EACH VISIT. THIS DEFINITELY SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE OTHER ELECTRONIC ISSUES AS WELL WHICH I WILL ADDRESS IN ANOTHER COMPLAINT.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES PER HOUR IN BEAUTIFUL 80 DEGREE WEATHER DAY ON AN AUGUST AFTERNOON - NO RAIN, NO OBSTRUCTIONS - WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP WITH WARNINGS ON THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM, BRAKE FAILURE, LANE ASSIST SYSTEM - EVERYTHING FLASHING AND BEEPING. I IMMEDIATELY TURN ALL THE ASSIST SYSTEMS OFF BUT THINGS STILL LITE UP AND WARNING. WHEN I AM SAFELY ABLE TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY TO STOP AND TURN CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON ALL THE WARNINGS GO AWAY AND APPEAR TO BE FINE. SENSORS ARE CLEAN AND CLEAR OF OBSTRUCTIONS. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. VERY SCARY! I KEEP THE CAR CLEAN AND THE SENSORS CLEAN AND UNOBSTRUCTED. LESS THAN 25,000 MILES ON THIS CAR AND IT HAS HAD ISSUES OF NOT STARTING AND DASHBOARD FLASHING NUMEROUS TIMES. DEALERSHIP ACTUALLY TOURED IT IN ON ONE OCCASION WHEN IT WOULDN'T START. COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND HAD US PICK IT UP. NEXT MORNING WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THEY FINALLY REPLACED THE BATTERY. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE, RELIABLE CAR AND NOW I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANY DISTANCE WITH FEAR OF FAILURES.

THIS MORNING AS I WAS DRIVING I WENT THROUGH A 4-WAY INTERSECTION. I WAS HALF WAY THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WHEN MY CAR ANNOUNCED LANE DEPARTURE. AT THAT TIME THE VEHICLE SHOT OVER TO THE RIGHT AND HIT THE CURB AT THE END OF THE INTERSECTION. I SHREDDED MY TIRE, AND HAD TO PLACE THE SPARE ON THE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TO HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THESE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. WHILE DRIVING I HAVE BEEN GO AT A SPEED AROUND 45-70 MPH, AND THE VEHICLE WILL FLASH BRAKE. AT THAT TIME THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES WILL LOCK UP. THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME FOR ANY THE OCCASIONS. HONDA TOLD ME TO SWITCH MY EZ PASS RESPONDER TO MAKE SURE THAT WASN'T CAUSING INTERFERENCE. I SWITCHED IT, AND IT KEPT OCCURRING. THIS MORNING THE CONCERNS I BROUGHT UP AT MY LAST SERVICE ABOUT WHAT IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT ALMOST BECAME A REALITY. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE ON THE CORNER WAITING TO CROSS THE ROAD. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING ME THERE WILL BE AN UPDATE, BUT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE NOW. LIVES ARE AT RISK. IF I KNEW HOW TO GO BY DOING A LEMON I WOULD. I STARTED REPORTING ISSUES AT 18K, AND HAVE CONSTANTLY BEEN DOING REPORTING OCCURRENCES WERE THE VEHICLE HAS MALFUNCTIONED.

I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MILES AN HOUR ON AN EXIT RAMP WHEN THE CAR BEEPED, FLASHED BRAKE, AND IT BRAKED EVEN THOUGHT MY FOOT WAS STILL ON THE GAS.

THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE ON SUNNY DAYS WHEN IT MUST HAVE MISREAD SHADOWS ON THE ROAD AS OBJECTS AND AGAIN, SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS. IF THERE HAD BEEN A CAR BEHIND ME THIS MORNING, I HAVE NO DOUBT I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS? I HAD BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER BEFORE AND I WAS INSULTED THAT THEY SAID MY CAR WAS DIRTY. I WOULD HAVE DIED! IF THEIR SENSORS CANNOT FUNCTION IN A MICHIGAN SPRING, THEY NEED TO DO SOMETHING!

On February 21, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22003) to assess reports of inadvertent activation of the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), an automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, in model year 2017-2019 Honda CR-V and 2018-2019 Honda Accord vehicles. The reports allege that activation of the AEB system occurs while driving with no apparent obstruction in the vehicle's forward path, resulting in sudden vehicle deceleration. Honda indicated that they were aware of a total of X,XXX reports that may relate to the alleged defect. Honda provided analysis of the alleged defect and alleges that some customers possibly had an inadequate understanding of the CMBS and its limitations. However, many consumer complaints allege that Honda dealerships were unable to reproduce the condition or state that they were informed that this is considered normal CMBS operation. To date, ODI has received a total of 1,294 consumer complaints of inadvertent activation of CMBS in 2017-2022 Honda CR-V and 2018-2022 Honda Accord vehicles. A total of 31 complaints alleged a crash and 50 alleged an injury. The Total column in the Failure Report Summary removes duplicate reports and shows the total number of reports with unique VINs from all Manufacturer, ODI, and EWR data sources. In some cases, there were multiple reports associated with a particular vehicle in which recurring failures were alleged. In total, there were X,XXX reports, 93 injury incidents and 47 crashes involving vehicles with unique VINs that may relate to the alleged defect. PE22-003 has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis to further assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety related consequences of the inadvertent AEB activations. The scope has been expanded to include assessment of model year 2020-2022 Honda CR-V and Accord vehicles.

On February 21, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22003) to assess reports of inadvertent activation of the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), an automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, in model year 2017-2019 Honda CR-V and 2018-2019 Honda Accord vehicles. The reports allege that activation of the AEB system occurs while driving with no apparent obstruction in the vehicle's forward path, resulting in sudden vehicle deceleration. Honda indicated that they were aware of a total of X,XXX reports that may relate to the alleged defect. Honda provided analysis of the alleged defect and alleges that some customers possibly had an inadequate understanding of the CMBS and its limitations. However, many consumer complaints allege that Honda dealerships were unable to reproduce the condition or state that they were informed that this is considered normal CMBS operation. To date, ODI has received a total of 1,081 consumer complaints of inadvertent activation of CMBS in the subject vehicles. A total of 24 complaints alleged a crash and 42 alleged an injury. The Total column in the Failure Report Summary removes duplicate reports and shows the total number of reports with unique VINs from all Manufacturer, ODI, and EWR data sources. In some cases, there were multiple reports associated with a particular vehicle in which recurring failures were alleged. In total, there were X,XXX reports, 84 injury incidents and 40 crashes involving vehicles with unique VINs that may relate to the alleged defect. PE22003 has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis (EA24002) to further assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety related consequences of the inadvertent AEB activations. Further the scope has been expanded to include assessment of model year 2020-2022 Honda CR-V and Accord vehicles.
