While driving it started raining and I attempted to turn the windshield wiper on. The control knob was unresponsive. Rear wiper control worked. Checked the front wiper again - unresponsive in all positionsl. Fortunately I was able to pull my vehicle to the side of the road while I still had visibility, turn the car off, turn the car on, and then the wiper control was functional again. If this had happened during a sudden downpour on the freeway it could have been much worse. For reference - I keep the automatic wiper setting on OFF. I did not troubleshoot enabling the automatic wiper setting during the incident.

The car makes a clicking noise when I make sharp turns, most co.monly to the left. It is brand new with only 2320 miles on it. The noise started within the last few weeks. The rear breaking system locked up the brakes and turns the emergency break on, when backing up, even if nothing is behind me. Once it was rain drops dripping off of the rear window. Another time, nothing was there. I had to assume that it picked up a shadow in the driveway.

While approaching a red light on a busy road the forward alert triggered and auto breaking was engaged with no vehicle in front. Almost resulted in an accident. Had the light not been red other cars near me may not have been breaking.

I bought my car in mid-December and twice in the space of driving it less than 300 miles I got warning lights regarding a "high voltage" problem and to go to the dealer immediately. I did both times. The first time they said it was due to the robot installing some valves backward and also the refrigerant was low. They put me back on the road and it happened again after a few short drives. My car has been in the shop ever since. It is now Feb. 10. They now say that there is a badly designed hose that leaks refrigerant, and they are waiting for it to be redesigned and sent out and it is on national backorder. They estimate it should become available by end of February. I want this complaint logged into the system in case it happens again and because I am sure many people have this problem, having read all the complaints on the Honda Prologue forum online.

Steering & front axle make loud clicking noise when turning, Honda is aware of the problem and that the problem gets worse over time but I am worried about steering/suspension failing before Honda has a fix available.
