The automated braking system engaged unexpectedly for the second time in 3 days. There were no cars in front, no cars parked on the side of the road. The vehicle was brought to a sudden stop with brake flashing on the dashboard. During both instances, there was a car being us that nearly rear ended us due to the unexpected braking.Owner report · Forward Collision Avoidance · Jun 2026
The windshield wiper nozzle that dispenses the wiper fluid is poorly designed. The passenger side nozzle shoots >50% of the fluid off my car and onto the guy in the lane to my right. The driver side nozzle barely gets any good cleaning effect on the driver side for the same reason - it shoots far to the right. Not only do I have to use way more fluid than necessary just to clean the windshield from debris or bugs, but I also don't get a *good* clean doing so. I don't feel entirely safe with the current implementation, and believe the system is greatly flawed.Owner report · Visibility/Wiper · Jun 2026
Bought this car, drove it home and realized when i drove slow, or stopped and turned wheel it made a clink/creeking noise. Took it to Honda where i bought it, they said it was the "power steering rack" which is known to have issues. told me it wasnt a safety issue and was safe to drive, they cannot replace it for free unless there is a recall. Looked up online and saw there was in fact recalls for this, just not my car. My 2024 only has 36k miles shouldnt already have issues with such low miles.Owner report · Steering · May 2026
