   I wanted to register a complaint on an issue we have experienced in our 2024 Honda Prologue EX Elite with the "CV axles."

Symptoms of the problem were knocking sounds heard from the lower, front section of the car when accelerating from a stop and turning at the same time. It was first noticed around 4000 miles and diagnosed by the local Honda dealer at around 7300 miles. Based on…

   It seems that the vehicles "auto hold" function, which is the standard control method for electric one-pedal driving cars does not always operate correctly or at all. This results in the vehicle suddenly accelerating due to gravity or potentially under it's own power. I have had to slam on the break many times to prevent the vehicle from busting through the garage door, and if any of my children or anyone else was near the car they could certainly receive life-threatening…

   When driving with the adaptive cruise control on, the Prologue throws out an alert after it suddenly disengages the cruise control that states that the forward camera is blocked and the cruise control will disengage. The cruise control also fails to notice cars in front of the Prologue and will speed up, then will suddenly "see" the car, jam on the breaks, then the accelerator again. Also, the adaptive cruise control cannot gauge distance between cars and all following…

    I have had my prologue for about two months now and have noticed that I receive a warning about reduced acceleration "randomly." I say “randomly” because I’ve observed that it appears during two specific situations. I get that warning whenever I’m low (less than 20%), so this is not random as it seems consistent. The other time this occurs is when I am driving or just starting my car (the battery percentage doesn’t matter, as it happens when it’s between 30% and 80%. Also,…
