The steering started clicking or clunking noise when hard turning left and right at about 9,000 miles. Took to the dealership and they acknowledged being able to easily replicate the problem, inspected for damage, did not see any. They returned the vehicle with no fix as advised by Honda at this moment for this problem. It appears to be a larger problem under investigation and I was told that it has been noted and we will need to wait for a resolution to the issue.

Every time I turn fully left or right there is a clicking, binding type noise. Gos away as steering is straightened. Have not gone to dealer yet because I have heard on Prologue forum web site that it is not being fixed yet, some have been in 3 to 6 times to replace cv axles, but that Honda engineering is working on a fix, ie a newly designed cv axles. Would appreciate any help on speeding up this process.

Vehicle: 2025 Honda Prologue Location: Sacramento, California Date of Incident: [XXX] What failed or malfunctioned The vehicle experienced a sudden loss of directional stability involving the steering system, brake-by-wire system, and electronic stability control (ESC). Steering and braking inputs did not produce proportional vehicle response. What happened While driving under normal conditions, the vehicle began drifting to the left. I attempted to steer back to the right and applied braking; however, the vehicle did not respond as expected. Electronic stability control did not appear to engage or correct the loss of control. The vehicle then deviated from its intended path, overturned, and struck a fence. The vehicle was declared a total loss. No other vehicles were involved, and no injuries occurred. Safety risk This failure created an immediate and serious safety risk. The loss of steering and braking effectiveness could have resulted in severe injury or fatality. The rollover demonstrates a critical safety concern. Warning signs No warning lights, messages, or symptoms were present prior to the failure. The event occurred suddenly without notice. Inspections The vehicle was inspected by police and insurance representatives. The manufacturer has not yet inspected the vehicle. The vehicle remains available for inspection through the insurance provider. Dealer confirmation The issue has not yet been reproduced due to the vehicle being totaled. Additional concerns The vehicle’s behavior was inconsistent with normal operation of safety-critical systems designed to maintain vehicle control. I am concerned about system performance, calibration, or possible electronic control failure. Manufacturer contact I reported this issue to Honda Customer Care by phone and requested escalation to engineering review.

Around 3000 miles both front axles developed a clicking sound when turning. The sounds has gotten progressively worse over the next 2000 miles. Honda dealer service center confirmed bad axles but states Honda America no longer allows them to replace the axles since the replacements are failing quickly. Second dealer also declined to fix defective axles stating Honda America is "working on a new part". No one knows what the part is or when it will potentially be available. Honda dealer now appraises the Prologue at *less than half* of the MSRP. (Vehicle has 5000 miles.)

When accelerating and turning left or right at the same time there is a severe clicking sound coming from the CV Joints sounds like they are cracked. This started to happen at 3500 miles. Brought it into the Honda dealership Service Department and they said it was a known issue and there was not a fix. Contrary to the research that I have done about this issue and Honda has been replacing these with a so-called new part number that fixes the issue. I am concerned because when turning and accelerating the stability of the vehicle does not feel safe.

Every time I have to turn the car on a 90 degree angle from a full stop at an intersection, the car makes a loud clicking sound as the car comes in and out of making the turn. A quick internet search about this shows it’s a widespread issue, and Honda is replacing axles to fix the issue. This should be a recall.

I have noticed a loud knocking sound coming from both the front right and left areas of the car when turning. I have read it may be a faulty CV joint but I am not sure. This issue arose before the car reached 6k miles. I believe these joints play a significant role in vehicle stability and safety. I have not been able to take it to the dealer yet but I will as soon as I can get a day off of work. There were no warnings on the dash, just a loud knocking when turning which appears to be a common defect that users are experiencing.

Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, anticipated in late 2026. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's numbers for this recall are DO5 and RO6.
