Warning light keeps coming on the gauge saying clean windshield or your safety features will not operate. Comes on as soon as I drive car into my garage. Came on even after washed the car by hand. Been to the dealer twice and the second time they changed the camera in the windshield. Light came back on 3 days later. There is an electrical issue because the rear led cargo lights remain glowing even after turning off car. This was also addressed at the dealership. This is definitely a safety concern is my safety features will not operate if “windshield is dirty “. The car has only 1800 miles on it.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? The windshield of my 2024 Honda HRV exploded into pieces while the car was parked. The windshield was inspected by the dealership. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? The sudden explosion of the windshield posed a significant safety risk, as shattered glass could have caused injuries to anyone nearby. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? The problem has been confirmed by Stockton 12 Honda in Sandy, UT, where the windshield was replaced. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives, or others? Yes, my dealership inspected the vehicle or the windshield, and after getting approval (2 days) they approved the replacement. . Were there any warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? There were no warning signs indicating a problem with the windshield prior to the explosion. The car was parked and unattended when the incident occurred. Additional Details: Mileage: 11,520 miles. Incident Details: The car was parked during my work hours. Surveillance footage confirmed no one had tampered with or touched the vehicle. Action Taken: Stockton 12 Honda in Sandy, UT replaced the windshield, but it took over a month due to a backlog of similar cases. According to the dealership, more than 55 other Honda HRVs had experienced the same issue. Since there are so many people with the same issue, why HONDA still didn't do a formal recall? Please, help us on that.

RQ24006 · Front Seat Belt Assemblies May Be Missing The Rivet That Secures The Quick Connector And Wire Plate

Opened Apr 4, 2024 · Closed Mar 26, 2025

Status: closed (inferred from source dates) · Seat Belts; Seat Belts:front

On April 4, 2024, the Office of Defects Investigations (ODI) opened RQ24006 to investigate American Honda Motor Co.’s (Honda’s) proposed remedy for recall 23V-782 as well as scope of the vehicles involved. Honda issued recall 23V-782 on November 21, 2023, which concerns certain model year (MY) 2023-2024 Honda Accord, Honda Accord Hybrid, and Honda HR-V vehicles. Recall 23V-782 states that the driver and front passenger seat belt pretensioner assemblies may have been manufactured without a rivet that secures the pretensioner quick connector and wire plate. Recall documentation states that seat belt pretensioner assemblies that are missing the rivet will not properly restrain the occupant in the event of a collision, increasing the risk of injury.Subject defective seat belt assemblies are installed as original equipment for both the driver and front passenger positions for the HR-V, but only for the driver position for the Accord and Accord Hybrid. The recall remedy for 23V-782 instructs the technician to inspect both front seat belt pretensioner assemblies and, if necessary, replace them. The inspection procedure requires the technician to utilize a pull force gauge to determine whether the subject component is missing the subject rivet and requires replacement. Parts requiring replacement are determined by whether the pretensioner quick connector separates from the pretensioner assembly while the technician is pulling on the seat belt. If no separation occurs, then the part is determined to be not defective and not require replacement. There have been no reports alleging a failure of seat belt pretensioner assemblies after the inspect and replace remedy for recall 23V-782 was performed. Additionally, no comparable failures have been observed in field data for similar vehicles outside of the scope of the recall. As of the 4th quarter of 2024, the recall completion rate is at approximately 84% of the total recalled population. In view of the lack of failures after the remedy for recall 23V-782 was performed, and the lack of failures in similar vehicles outside of the scope of the recall, ODI is closing this Recall Query (RQ). The Agency reserves the right to take additional action if warranted by future circumstances.
