I have reported car jerks while driving as though pushing to go. Car service said never heard of something with Prologues and brushed it off. I want it documented. The safety features such as listed above do not always effectively work either.

I recently purchased a 2025 Honda Prologue. I've had multiple issues with the advanced driver assistance systems. The rear automatic braking will slam the brakes on when I'm backing up if it detects something like a pedestrian on the sidewalk (that I am in no danger of hitting). I've also had issues with it misinterpreting where the lane lines are on the freeway, and automatically trying to incorrectly steer the car OUT of the lane, which is very dangerous, especially at freeway speeds. These systems can be disabled, but this must be done EVERY time you start the car. There is no way to completely turn them off and have them stay off. While I understand these systems were designed to improve safety, they are deeply flawed and actually make driving less safe. At the very least, there needs to be a way to permanently disable them. NHTSA needs to mandate that car companies, including Honda, offer drivers a choice to permanently disable these systems until the technology is much better than it currently is. Thank you.

My 2025 Honda Prologue Touring, purchased in August and currently with only 7,000 miles, is experiencing multiple serious safety issues. The vehicle has already had both the left and right axles replaced. by warranty Now, the left axle is failing again. A defective axle can break at high speeds, which puts my entire family at risk, including my baby. This issue compromises vehicle stability and could easily lead to a serious accident. Additionally, the vehicle’s collision mitigation system activates unexpectedly, causing the car to brake on its own without any obstacle present. This sudden braking is extremely dangerous, especially on the highway, as it could result in a rear-end collision. The blind-spot indicators also activate at random. When I attempt to turn right or left, the blind-spot warning turns on even when I double-check and confirm that there are no vehicles anywhere near me. This creates confusion and hesitation while driving, increasing the risk of a crash. Given the repeated axle failures, unintended braking, and malfunctioning blind-spot monitoring system, I believe the vehicle presents significant safety defects that require investigation.
