BACK IN NOVEMBER OF 2016 I HAD AN ACCIDENT, WHICH I BELIEVE WAS CAUSED BY A MALFUNCTION IN THE CAR. RIGHT BEFORE LOOSING CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE MY TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT FLASHED RAPIDLY ON THE DASH CAUSING MY CAR TO JOLT AND LOOSE TRACTION. I HAD SPUN AND HIT HEAD ON TO THE SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN. A FEW MORE FEET TO THE LEFT AND I WOULD'VE FLEW OFF THE MOUNTAIN. I THEN HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY READ ALL THE CODES ON MY CAR TO SEE IF IT REALLY WAS A CAR MALFUNCTION. THE 2 CODES THAT BROUGHT CONCERN TO ME WHERE THE ( 61-1 BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW & 25-1 YAW RATE SENSOR MALFUNCTION) BUT HONDA WAS UNSURE IF THESE CODES WHERE CAUSED BY THE ACCIDENT, BUT I KNEW IT WAS WHAT HAD CAUSED MY ACCIDENT. JUST AS A REMINDER I BOUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW FOR THE VERY REASON BEING I WANTED TO KNOW IT WAS TAKEN CARE OF I DIDN'T WANT A USED CAR WITH PROBLEMS. SO MY CAR ENDED UP BEING FIXED BY MY INSURANCE AND IT TOOK A TOTAL OF 3 MONTHS BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO GET IT BACK! BECAUSE HONDA WAS WAITING ON A WIRE HARNESS TO BE DELIVERED. THEN ONCE I GET MY CAR BACK IN FEBRUARY OF 2017 IT RUNS SMOOTHLY AS IF IT WAS A BRAND NEW CAR I WAS SO EXCITED TO FINALLY HAVE MY CAR BACK! LITTLE TO KNOW THAT 2 MONTHS LATER AT THE END OF MARCH BEGINNING OF APRIL I WOULD HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT DOESN'T JUST FLASH RAPIDLY AND MAKE MY CARS FRONT TIRES SKID AND MY CAR JOLT WHILE I'M DRIVING BUT ALSO WHEN I START FROM A COMPLETE STOP. I'VE ALSO NOTICED THAT I ONLY HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHILE DOING A LEFT TURN OR MANEUVER LEFT. ON APRIL 3RD 2017 I TAKE MY CAR BACK IN TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP 20 MINUTES AFTER MY CAR DOES IT AGAIN! I HAD THEM READ THE CODES ONE MORE TIME AND WHAT DO YOU KNOW THE SAME 2 CODES POP UP AGAIN! 61-1 BATTERY VOLTAGE LOW & 25-1 YAW RATE SENSOR. ALL HONDA DID WAS CLEAR THE CODE AND RELEARN THE SENSOR. I FEAR FOR MY LIFE!
