2016 Honda HR-V

I was driving on a Nevada highway and getting into an off ramp with mild traffic. I attempted to break so I could stop behind another driver and realized my breaks weren't working. I then put my entire body weight on the breaks and they failed to stop or slow down my vehicle. I ended up colliding into the vehicle ahead at 50 mph. Even with an impact of 50mph not a single airbag went off. I sustained head injuries. This could have been lethal. Myself and my passenger could have died. The breaks failed resulting in a collision and the air bags did NOT go off. My vehicle was totaled on the spot and i spent over 7 hours in the hospital due to my vehicles failing to keep me safe. I did reasrch and almost every other 2016 Honda HRV has a recall for the breaks and somehow mine did not when the breaks failure could have killed me.

The contact owns a 2016 Honda HR-V. The contact stated that while driving up an incline an abnormal scraping sound was coming from the vehicle while depressing the brake pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The dealer was contacted about the issue and the contact was informed of an unknown recall on the transmission. The VIN tool showed no recalls on her vehicle. The manufacturer had yet to be notified of the failure. The vehicle had yet to be repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

When driving on the highway, my vehicle accelerated very suddenly despite me not having put additional pressure on the gas pedal, as I was at a cruising speed of about 65 mph. Immediately after accelerating, my vehicle began to quickly decelerate, so much so that I had to veer over to the shoulder so as not to cause a collision with other vehicles on the road. It decelerated despite my foot still pressing on the gas pedal. In addition, the lights on my dash lit up and some began flashing. I took my vehicle into the dealership to discover that the computer system required an update and my transmission belt had deteriorated so much that it needed to be replaced. I was assured by the dealership that I would not experience this issue again after these repairs had been made. Since then, I have taken my vehicle to the dealership with this same issue an additional 3 times. Even after these multiple attempts at repair, this issue still has not been resolved. I am no longer comfortable driving this vehicle as it has shut down on the highway on more than one occasion now. I cannot in good faith be on the road knowing that this could occur again at any moment, causing a safety risk not only to myself, but to others around me as well.

My Hatch has been filling up with lots of water not too long after I began leasing it and it sloshes around, it is in my rear lights, has made the inside light of my hatch no longer work. Now, water is leaking in from both rear windows and somewhere in through the fabric of the inside back roof area creating a growing water stain and mold. Spare Tire well in back also fills up with up to 2 inches of water. Mold, Rust, Electrical problems and more are the result. Honda has not yet taken care of it although I have had a diagnostic and see that it has been reported here multiple times.

The vehicle was driving normally, with no knocking, no warning light indicators, etc. When attempting to accelerate from a stop, there was a “bang” under the hood, multiple warning lights came on and the vehicle would not move, although the engine was running. The vehicle was stranded in the middle of traffic. The dealership said the transmission blew up and there was metal shards in the fluids.

The contact stated that he veered to the side of the road and rubbed the tires of the vehicle against the curb and the vehicle slowed down. The contact pulled into a parking lot and switched gears to park and the vehicle stopped. The vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. The dealer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to his insurance company for assistance. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 61,000.
