FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

The 2019 Honda HRV with low miles of around 44,000 miles experienced a series of warning alerts on the dash board consisting of the following list of five problems: Road Departure Mitigation System Problem; Auto High-Beam Problem; Adaptive Cruise Control Problem ACC; Lane Keeping Assist Problem LKAS; and Collision Mitigation System Problem. This started with warm weather at the end of July 2026 and is continuing intermittently in August 2026 as of the date of this write up. I described this to a Honda service person verbally in person in Huntington Beach, CA and they said it was a Multipurpose Camera problem and could fix it for $1,971.23 plus tax. They indicated that the camera was improved so it wouldn't fail so easily. The vehicle has not been physically inspected by dealer service staff yet. With all these safety features potetially not functiing at times creates great safety risk (e.g., Adaptive Cruise Control is not really on when you think it is and the car could rear end another vehicle in front especially if the Collision Mitigation Sytem is also malfunctioning). Car with low miles and in great shape otherwise. No significant accidents. No cracked or replaced windshield. Have a large 113MB video if needed of dashboard problem warnings.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL

Honda sensing error codes started lighting up all of a sudden. My HRV has never been in any kind of minor or major accident. We bought it new back in 2019. It currently has 13424 miles. This error is unexplainable as we have maintained this car so thoroughly. This error is not safe for drivers as it causes confusion especially when it just suddenly pops out while driving.

Vail, AZ

LANE DEPARTURE: BLIND SPOT DETECTION

The forward camera mounted on the windshield failed which means all of the advanced safety features will not work that is a safety hazard when you rely on these systems. Looking on the internet, this seems to be a common problem and is very expensive to fix. There are multiple warning lamps that appear. They are Brake System, Auto High-Beam Problem, Collision Mitigation System Problem, Lane Keeping Assist Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, & Adaptive Cruise Control Problem. I don't understand how there are recalls when the rear camera does not work but not the front camera. They are both safety features.
