I turned my car on and the screens were on, I put it in drive and both screens went black, I pulled over and I restarted the car multiple times, nothing would come on. I had to drive one hour to work without being able to see how fast I was going, or how many miles. It was completely dark and this is a serious safety issue.

About 30 miles after starting a 1,500-mile road trip, the infotainment screen and driver instrument panel both went completely blank. After about 60 seconds, the system apparently rebooted, restoring both screens to normal operation. However, during that minute I was driving at approximately 75 mph on Interstate 90, and I had no…

About 30 miles after starting a 1,500-mile road trip, the infotainment screen and driver instrument panel both went completely blank. After about 60 seconds, the system apparently rebooted, restoring both screens to normal operation. However, during that minute I was driving at approximately 75 mph on Interstate 90, and I had no access to certain vehicle controls and no way to verify my speed or see messages about cruise control. The error generated no warning lights or error codes, so I have not reported the issue to the manufacturer or dealership. The issue occurred with the odometer at about 180 miles. The odometer is now at about 1650 miles. I have not experienced the issue again.

Critical Safety Issue: Vehicle exhibits severe steering stability defects creating immediate safety hazards: 1. Continuous side-to-side oscillation occurs while maintaining straight-line travel, even with steering wheel held firmly in position. Vehicle "snakes" within lane without driver input, making it dangerous during lane changes and blind spot checks. 2. Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) malfunctions due to steering offset: - System overcompensates with excessive left steering correction - Creates dangerous oversteering situation - Had to disable LKAS for safety - Demonstrates underlying steering system defect 3. Additional steering abnormalities: - Strong rightward pull during acceleration - Excessive resistance during left turns at highway speeds - Asymmetrical handling between left/right turns - Issues persist with LKAS disabled Safety Implications: - Cannot maintain steady lane position - Constant steering corrections required - High risk during emergency maneuvers - Loss of critical LKAS safety feature - Particularly dangerous at highway speeds - Driver distraction during blind spot checks while managing unstable steering Dealer Response: - Multiple visits without resolution - Over one week in shop - Claims behavior is normal - Dismisses safety concerns Issue is consistent and reproducible across different road conditions. Problem absent in other vehicles including rental car during service period. Video documentation available. Request investigation of: - Steering system components - Suspension geometry - Alignment specifications - LKAS system integration - Power steering system This safety defect creates unacceptable risk of accidents, particularly during emergency maneuvers or when changing lanes. Issue present since delivery and remains unresolved despite multiple repair attempts.

On Dec. 19 the infotainment system and the instrument panels both went blank. I was driving away from my home. I touched a button on the steering wheel that controls the content of the screen that is the main instrument panel. The heads up display failed as well. The car kept running, but I could see any information such as my speed, my battery level or any of the other usual information. I could not reboot the system by myself when I called the dealership, but they said that after I handed it over to them, that it was rebooting. I took it back home and it seems to be working normally, but nothing Planet Honda did will guarantee that this will not reoccur. Planet Honda said they have heard of this happening to others, but that it's rare. If you google this problem, you can see other Prologue owners have had this happen.. This is very upsetting and potentially dangerous to not know your speed or to be able to control the lights of the car and other items. \

I just leased a 2024 Honda Prologue in October. It has a serious design flaw that Honda is refusing to fix -- the minimum temperature setting for heat is 70 degrees! Set the temperature any lower than 69 and it will blast feet and face with cold air even if the car is cold and it is 20 degrees outside. With a heavy winter coat, …

I just leased a 2024 Honda Prologue in October. It has a serious design flaw that Honda is refusing to fix -- the minimum temperature setting for heat is 70 degrees! Set the temperature any lower than 69 and it will blast feet and face with cold air even if the car is cold and it is 20 degrees outside. With a heavy winter coat, that's way too warm (and its also bad for range). I consider it a safety issue because when it gets too warm, it negatively impacts my alertness. And I can't safely take off my heavy winter coat while on the highway. I opened case #[XXX] with Honda on [XXX] and on Dec 20 Cynthia called me back to say that unless NHTSA declares it a safety defect Honda will not be fixing this. Now I'm stuck with the 3 year lease with this problem unless I can convince the dealer and Honda Finance to terminate the lease and refund my money. If I had known about this limitation I would have never leased this vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

While driving, both screens went completely black. Without the screens I was not able to monitor speed, no access to headlights and no access to adjust one pedal driving mode. All audio stopped as well. At first I didn’t know if I lost power to the entire vehicle, which distracted me from driving. Once I got my bearings, quickly accessed that the vehicle did not lose power, I pulled over. No warning lights or messages prior to this incident. No warning at all. It took about 10 minutes before both screens came back on. Being unable to monitor vehicle status and unable to see speed and no access to multiple options without the screen, put my safety at risk and other people around me at risk. I have not taken it in for any inspection at this time. This just happened yesterday.
