THE PROBLEMS WITH VEHICLE STARTED THREE MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING IT IN NOVEMBER 2018. I HAVE FOUR DOCUMENTED CASES WITH THE DEALERSHIP. AS WELL AS 7 VIDEOS OF THE INCIDENT TAKEN PLACE WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. THE TACHOMETER AND ENTIRE DASHBOARD, INCLUDING ENTERTAINMENT CENTER, SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE ESPECIALLY WHILE USING THE GPS. THE SYSTEM REBOOTS ITSELF WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION. HONDA CORPORATE IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAD NOT PROVIDED A FIX FOR THE ISSUE TO DATE, DESPITE REPRESENTATIONS THAT SUCH FIXES WOULD BE AVAILABLE BY FALL OF LAST YEAR. I ALSO HAVE VOICEMAIL FROM THE SERVICE AND PARTS DIRECTOR OF THE DEALERSHIP ADMITTING FAULT AND NO FIXES FOR THE PROBLEM. I HAVE ADDITIONAL EVIDENCE I CAN SHARE. FOR "WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN?", I HAVE PUT THE APPROXIMATE LAST TIME THIS ISSUE AROSE. THE PROBLEM IS ONGOING AND HAS BEEN SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IN NOVEMBER 2018. PLEASE NOTE THAT MY PDF FILES CANNOT GO BELOW 6MB, SO I NEED TO SUBMIT THAT TO YOU SOME OTHER WAY WHEN YOU CONTACT ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN LOSS OF FUNCTION IN: 1. ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION 2. COLLISION MITIGATION 3. ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL 4. BRAKING SYSTEM THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT SPEED OF 10-40MPH, WITH AIR TEMPERATURE OF 28-32 DEGREES AND SNOWY CONDITIONS. HONDA HAS REPEATEDLY REFUSED TO INVESTIGATE NUMEROUS, POTENTIALLY SW/HW - RELATED ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN MANIFESTING THEMSELVES IN OTHER PARTS OF THE VEHICLE. WHAT HAPPENED TODAY WAS A NEW SET OF SYMPTOMS, BUT WITH MUCH HIGHER SEVERITY AND NO OBVIOUS PRECEDENT. I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO DISABLE THE LANE DEPARTURE AND THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEMS ON THIS VEHICLE DUE TO THEIR ERRATIC BEHAVIOR. HOWEVER, IN THIS CASE THE MESSAGES THAT HAVE COME UP (WILL ATTACHE PHOTOS) DEMANDED THAT THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THE ERRORS AND MESSAGE DID NOT GO AWAY UPON MULTIPLE RESTARTS OF THE VEHICLE. UPON ARRIVAL TO THE DEALER, IT WAS INDICATED TO ME THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF SOME OF THE OTHER ISSUES I'VE BEEN EXPERIENCING WITH THE VEHICLE AND STILL (MONTHS HENCE) DOES NOT HAVE A FIX, AND THAT HONDA HAS, ESSENTIALLY, BEEN RESORTING TO TESTING THEIR VEHICLE ON THE CUSTOMERS, INSTEAD OF MORE RIGOROUS PRE-RELEASE TESTING, INSTEAD CHOOSING TO USE THE DEALERS AS A QUASI-TEST/R&D DEPARTMENT. THE MULTIPLE SAFETY SYSTEM FAILURE I EXPERIENCED TODAY IS A PRETTY CLEAR INDICATION OF THAT. I HAVE FILED ANOTHER COMPLAINT WITH NTHSA RELATED TO THE OTHER ISSUES AND WOULD URGE YOU TO INITIATE A RECALL ON ALL OF THE HONDA ACCORDS (AND POSSIBLY ODYSSEYS AND PILOTS AS THEY SHARE SOME OF THE SUB-SYSTEMS) FOR THE 2018, 2019 AND THE COMING 2020 MODELS.

THE BRAKE SYSTEM ALERT IS FLASHING ON THE DASHBOARD WHILE VEHICLE IN MOTION AND THERE IS NO BREAK ISSUE. IT APPEARS TO BE A FLAWED COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKE SYSTEM SENSOR AS THIS KEEPS FLASHING ACROSS THE DASH IN BIG BOLD LETTERS AND WONT GO OFF. I JUST BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE BRAND NEW 5 MONTHS AGO. WHEN TURNING CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE MESSAGE IS STILL THERE AND WONT GO AWAY.

AFTER BEING PARKED IN A FRIENDS DRIVEWAY FOR SEVERAL HOURS I PROCEEDED TO OPEN MY CAR AND DRIVE HOME. FIRST REMOTE CONTROL WOULD NOT OPEN DOORS, AFTER SEVERAL TRIES IT OPEN THE DRIVER DOOR ONLY, UPON TURNING IGNITION ON A SERIES OF WARNING INDICATING THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY DISABLES ITSELF, ALL COLLISION MITIGATION FUNCTIONS STOP WORKING, SERIES OF WARNING SEE PICS APPEAR ON DISPLAY TO SEE DEALER, ALL WINDOWS AND TRUCK WILL NOT FUNCTION, TURN SIGNALS AND BRAKE LIGHTS, REAR VIEW CAMERA DO NOT FUNCTION, BRAKE SYSTEM MSG APPEARS ON DISPLAY. TURNED OFF AND ON CAR WITH NO SUCCESS IN RESTORING ALL FUNCTIONS AS ON TWO PREVIOUS OCCASIONS. DROVE CAR FOR 4 MILES IN THIS STATE FELT IT WAS DANGEROUS FOR US AND OTHER DRIVERS. THIS MORNING ALL HAS RESTORED TO NORMAL. CALLED HONDA DEALER IN EL MONTE CA. WAS TOLD THEY DID NOT KNOW ANYTHING ABOUT THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM, WAS NOT ABLE TO BOOK SERVICE CALL UNTIL MIDDLE OF NEXT WEEK IN RESEARCHING ONLINE FOUND HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 19-051 DESCRIBING A SOFTWARE UPDATE TO CAR MODULES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THAT IS REALLY SHOULD MERIT A RECALL AS IT INTERFERES WITH THE SAFE DRIVING OF THE VEHICLE. A RECALL WILL FORCE HONDA TO INFORM ITS SERVICE DEALERS AND INSTRUCT THEM ON A PROMPT SCHEDULING OF REQUIRED SOFTWARE UPGRADE TO RESOLVE THIS SOFTWARE DEFECT AFFECTING DRIVABILITY OF THEIR FLAGSHIP CAR.

HONDA'S COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM SHUTS DOWN, DISALLOWING CRUISE CONTROL AND ALL SAFETY FEATURES THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM. DEALER CANNOT FIND CAUSE. TURNING OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTING IT RESETS IT, BUT WHEN IT TURNS OFF, THERE IS NO CLEAR FACTOR AS TO WHY IT HAPPENED. THERE IS A SAFETY RISK IF YOU ARE USING CRUISE CONTROL, AS IT COULD FAIL TO BRAKE WHEN THE CAR IN FRONT OF YOU SLOWS DOWN. IT HAS HAPPENED 4 OR 5 TIMES IN THE PAST 8 MONTHS SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW.

VEHICLE RUNNING, BOTH DRIVING AND STATIONARY, DASH INDICATED THREE WARNINGS: "ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM PROBLEM", "COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING PROBLEM", "ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION PROBLEM". ALL THREE SYSTEMS WERE NONFUNCTIONAL. DEALER ADVISED TO DRIVE THROUGH A CAR WASH BEFORE COMING IN FOR REPAIR. THE CAR WASH APPEARS TO HAVE WORKED, BUT THIS IS ABSURD! EVERY TIME IT RAINS OR CAR IS DIRTY, THE SAFETY FEATURES DON'T WORK? DIDN'T SEE THIS DISCLOSURE WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR OR WHEN I PAID FOR THESE FEATURES.

AS I WAS PULLING OUT THE GARAGE FROM THE SAN FRANCISCO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT HEADING TOWARDS THE HIGHWAY TO SAN FRANCISCO THE MILES PER HOUR IS 30 ENTERING AND THEN 65 MPH WHEN YOU GET ON HIGHWAY. THE DASH BOARD INDICATES THE WRONG MILES FOR SPEED IT SAID 100 MPH. IT STAYED LIKE THAT FOR MORE THAN 5 MINS. I ALREADY HAD A PREVIOUS SITUATION WITH THIS VEHICLE WHERE THE BRAKING SYSTEMS ENGAGED AS I WAS ON HIGHWAY IN 05/13/2018, AND ALMOST CAUSED MY LIFE AND OTHERS BEHIND ME, THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE FROM BEING REAR ENDED AND OVER 18K WORTH OF DAMAGE BUT HONDA DEALER KEEP SAYING NOTHING WAS FOUND FAULTY! I HAD THEM TURN 'OFF' ALL SAFETY MODES CAUSE I'M AFRAID IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN BUT IT KEEPS COMING BACK 'ON'. IT YANKED ME SEVERAL TIMES WHEN NO OTHER CAR IS AROUND ME. THE BRAKING LIGHT APPEARED SEVERAL TIMES ALREADY SINCE I GOT IT BACK, AND IT'S LIKE THEY DON'T BELIEVE YOU. NOW AFTER ALL THIS I'M STUCK WITH A FAULTY CAR I'M REALLY THINKING ABOUT GETTING A LAWYER ON THIS. AND MY SPEAKERS SEEM NOT TO BE RIGHT EITHER THE SOUNDING IS VERY LOW COMPARED TO WHEN I GOT IT. ONLY 2000 MILES AND THIS CAR BEEN A PAIN . PHYSICALLY AND MENTALLY! AND DID I MENTION THAT MY AIRBAGS DIDN'T WORK FROM FIRST INCIDENT I REPORTED. AFTER CAR WAS CRUSHED IN FROM BEING HIT FROM BEHIND . NOPE THEY FAILED TOO.

1. CAR MULTIMEDIA UNIT (WITH A TOUCH-SCREEN) RANDOMLY FREEZES AND RESTARTS ITSELF. IT HAPPENED TO ME 9 TIMES ALREADY SINCE I BOUGHT A CAR IN JUNE 2018. IF YOU USE NAVIGATION SYSTEM OR NEED SCREEN FOR OTHER ACTIVITIES WHILE YOU DRIVING - YOU ARE IN TROUBLE, BECAUSE YOU WILL LOSE ALL THE CONTENT YOU HAD ON THE SCREEN BEFORE THE RESTART AND IT WILL DISTRACT YOU FROM THE DRIVING. AFTER RESTART SYSTEM IS VERY SLOW AND IT FORCES YOU TO ACCEPT LEGAL DECLAIMER WHILE YOU DRIVING! TWO TIMES IT JUST FROZE WITHOUT RESTART AND I HAD TO STOP THE CAR, TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND ON AGAIN, TO REMOVE THE PROBLEM. VERY ANNOYING AND ALSO NOT SAFE BECAUSE IT DISTRACTS YOU. ONE TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS BACKING UP USING REAR VIEW CAMERA, WHICH ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY, MAINLY WHEN I'M DRIVING. IT HAPPENS WHEN DEVICES ARE ATTACHED TO THE MULTIMEDIA UNIT AND WITHOUT ANY DEVICES BEING ATTACHED OR USED. IT HAPPENS AT NIGHT AND DAY TIME AND I DOUBT IT IS RELATED TO OVERHEATING. IT CAN HAPPEN DURING LONG DRIVE AS WELL AS 5-10 MINUTES AFTER THE ENGINE START. NO VISIBLE PATTERN HERE. OCEAN HONDA OF BURLINGAME DEALERSHIP IN BAY AREA IS NOT HELPFUL AND TOTALLY NOT PROFESSIONAL. BEEN THERE TWICE, NO LUCK. THEY DIDN'T EVEN TRY TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE PROPERLY ALWAYS TRYING TO SEARCH FOR FAULT IN MY ACTIONS OR BLAME COMPATIBLE DEVICES ATTACHED TO CIGARETTE POWER SLOT. AMERICAN HONDA ADVISED ME TO VIDEO RECORD THIS ACTIVITY WHILE I'M DRIVING !!!! STILL NO RESOLUTION. VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HONDA 2. SENSORS ARE NOT PROPERLY SETUP BECAUSE IT "THINKS" THAT THERE'S A CAR AHEAD OF YOU IF SENSOR DETECT SHADOW ON A ROAD, ETC. CAR APPLIED BREAKS FEW TIMES WITHOUT A REASON. DIDN'T GO TO DEALERSHIP WITH THIS PROBLEM YET.
