   I originally notified my dealer of concerns with my vehicles behavior while using cruise control and they verified that the systems were 'calibrated and working properly'. On a regular basis, my car will automatically and erroneously engage the vehicles brakes while driving, especially while using the automatic cruise control function. This behavior is far worse at night but has happened to me during the day as well and under all weather conditions. Typically, the gauge…

   At speeds 35+ MPH the steering has a “sticky” “notch” feeling making steering at high speed very difficult to do smoothly, especially when cornering. This has led to close-calls nearly resulting in accidents, but fortunately being avoided. I suspect it has to do with the steering rack issue that is a common complaint with this MY.

   My Honda will randomly beep and slam the brakes but there is nothing in front of me, it has done this multiple times and getting to the point I’m scared it will cause an accident. When it happened the first time I thought maybe it was because it was slightly raining, but it will do it regardless of the weather conditions. It has happened probably 5+ times, and it’s starting to become more frequent.

   The adaptive cruise control is the safety issue. It creates danger for both me and for others. Traveling at speeds approximately 65-70 mph the car suddenly brakes very hard. Causes me and my passengers to be jolted extremely hard. Its happened 3 times, I was fortunate enough to not have anybody traveling behind me. If a car was to be traveling behind me at a safe distance the sudden braking would cause them to rear end me. I can only imagine how horrible the injuries could…

   Hello. My 2024 civic sport had an automatic brake system that failed to operate correctly. As a result of being blinded by the sun that brake system could have potentially prevented the accident in question. Instead, the system did not deploy and the car ended up totaled with both air bags deployed after just a 20 mph fender bender. If the intended systems worked as they were designed, the accident wouldn’t have happened in the first place.

    Every time I get in the car at some point in my drive, all of my safety features kickoff. Basically my ADAS. I can’t even use cruise control. There’s a huge safety issue because I was on a snowy road and my traction control was not on cause my Civic to lose control. Good thing I recovered it and no accident. I can drive 5 miles down the road or 200 miles, but at some point it will kick on. I have looked this up, and thousands of Honda owners are having this issue. I took my…

    Twice lately I was following a vehicle towing a trailer with equipment on it. I noticed that the area on the dash which shows vehicles in front of me did not detect these vehicles or their trailers. I am concerned that automatic emergency braking, adaptive cruise and forward collision detection will not work.
