When turning the vehicle on, it sometimes displays an error in the instrument panel of the”Brake system failure 43 MPH Top Speed” When this error is present, the vehicle has almost no braking capability. One pedal braking is also disabled when this happens. So the only way to stop the car is to mash the brake pedal to the floor like your life depends on it. Turning the vehicle off for 5 minutes and turning it back on seems to clear the issue.

The center console and the screen behind the sharing wheel black at the same time while I was driving. I couldn't see the speed I was going while driving. I tried turning off the car, taking the key out, then turning the car back on the nothing changed. This issue put me and the other people on the road at risk. Two days before my center console was glitching. I tied to put the map on google maps and apple CarPlay map and it was non stop moving. After about an hour the screen and maps staring the work fine then this time it went completely out.

Parking my car in a space with other cars. Nowhere near the car in front of me and the car just locked up the brakes. It was jarring and really strained my neck as I wasn’t expecting it. My daughter was in the car as well and was jarred.

Automatic emergency braking triggers repeatedly when no hazard is present. The system triggered emergency braking and a close-call accident at an intersection. Cars were parked along the side of the road, presumably tricking the system into thinking there was a hazard. Brakes slammed on with a car directly behind us, almost rear ending us. This also happened when reversing out of our driveway. No hazards present, but the system slammed on the brakes. Only possible cause was shadows. These systems are dangerous and not ready for public use. Please force the manufacturer to fix this before people are hurt.

My car has 2824 miles and the front left CV JOINT has failed according to the dealership that completed the inspection. They state they were told by GM and Honda that the car was safe to drive. I have known someone that had a CV joint fail and lost the wheel. I do not feel that this is safe and no one should be recommended to continue to use the car with a faulty wheel component. This is a huge safety risk. I was told the part would be in 2 weeks on 12/3/24 it is now 1/3/25 and the parts team has let me know it could be the end of February now before it arrives and that is just a loose estimate as there are of cars with this same issue waiting

The collision system is too sensitive. Regularly when I’m backing into a parking spot the car will slam on the breaks even though there aren’t any objects in the way. This will also happen on occasion while driving forward normally potentially causing someone behind me to rear end the car
