At about 5000 miles the car began a slight clicking noise after turning left. When the wheel was straightening out. As time progressed it started happening both left and right turns and the noise got louder. Honda dealer said that was normal without looking at it. How is a loud clicking noise normal on a car with under 7000 miles. Trying to get axles replaced but they are denying the repair as it’s just loud and noisy. The wheel also has a slight vibration now.

While driving normally, my 2025 Honda Prologue experienced an immediate, catastrophic mechanical and electronic failure in both the steering and braking systems. The steering wheel completely locked up/failed to respond, and the brakes became completely non-functional simultaneously, causing an absolute loss of control of the vehicle. Due to this sudden system failure, the vehicle veered off course and crashed, resulting in severe structural damage, complete destruction of the front passenger-side suspension, and rendering the vehicle a total loss. American Honda Motor Co. Corporate was immediately notified of this severe safety defect (Case No. 16372717. However, Honda Corporate has explicitly refused to send an engineer or inspector to evaluate the vehicle's electronic or mechanical logs, and they also refused to provide their denial statement in writing. The vehicle remains un-repaired as evidence of this dangerous factory defect.

Exiting the interstate waiting to turn right and behind one car that was able 10 feet in front of me, the car suddenly slammed on the brakes hard enough to make me think I was hit by another car. There was nothing close by.

Drop off a few days after receiving vehicle. Picked up and dropped back off the same day due to issue repeating it self after being told there was no issue. Parts were supposedly replace on one of the occasions. No real time spent on the vehicle according to invoices. 8/28/25 -9/4/25 9/4/25 - 9/15/25 9/24/25 - 10/14/25 I have brought the car in for the same problem multiple times without it being rectified. I currently have videos and pictures from when this started to this current time. There are also other customers that have the same complaints that I do. Below is a list of issues that have been going on since first complaint including continued first complaint. I do believe that this is an issue and is a danger due to the reverse camera glitching due to the screen, not being able to get out of the screen, sometimes can not leave a parking space due to the sensor says that there is something in the way where indeed there is nothing. Also can not pull out of drive way during snow due to the car automatically breaking for snow. The collision for the front is always going off when there is no need for it to go off as this can cause someone to unexpectedly stop due to this being something that is supposed to be a warning. If this could happen to the vehicle constantly without a solution then this could be connected to something much more serious. There are other issues that have gone on as well that I have slowly started to notice and pay attention to. I do believe that the amount I am paying for this car it should not have these issues with out explanation. Clearly this is common and on going. One thing can lead to another with these issues. The screen in the middle of the dashboard —- Screen goes black for no known reason Screen flashing Screen is rainbow Touch screen will not work at these times When screen is glitching you can not turn volume down or off, disconnect phone, charging port goes out. Can not back out of parking space due to sensors going off.

Clicking noise coming from the front axles when turning either right or left. ADAS settings seem to be too sensitive. Car slams on the emergency brake when backing out of a parking spot with no obstacles in view. Forward warning system alerts occur even though there is nothing in front of the car.

My 2025 Honda Prologue is experiencing a consistent knocking/cracking noise when turning the steering wheel at low speeds, particularly during tight turns such as parking or exiting driveways. The noise appears to originate from the front axle or wheel area and is most noticeable when accelerating slightly while turning. The sound can be described as a series of clicks, pops, or clunks, and occurs intermittently on both left and right turns. This issue has been widely reported in 2024–2025 Prologue models and is commonly associated with potential CV joint or drive axle defects, where owners describe similar noises occurring early in the vehicle’s life and sometimes worsening over time.

American Honda Motor Company (Honda) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Honda Prologue and 2024 Acura ZDX vehicles. The rearview camera screen may display a distorted or blank image.

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.
