   Hi, yes the component is the CV axle on the driver side front wheel. Whenever I make a left turn, the driver side CV axle makes a clicking noise.

The safety seems OK, but we are fearful that is could break and cause an accident. We brought the the car to the Honda Norm Reeves in Cerritos on April 3rd,…

   Being an AWD. There is a load knocking sound when accelerating from a stop to 30 mph while turning left or right. The frequency happens every time under those conditions. With my experience this knocking sound is indicating a bad CV Joint, axle, or transfer case.

   Vehicle was taken to dealer for click noise Hurd while turning right around only 4k miles.

   I have had multiple occurrences where as I'm accelerating into a turn at normal /slow speeds the traction control activates and my vehicle almost comes to a stop almost causing an accident with the vehicles behind me. This was on dry pavement and not heavy acceleration so the traction system should not have activated.

   My 2026 Honda Prologue makes clicking sounds when executing turns. The problem was confirmed in a diagnostic assessment at the Honda dealer at about 7,500 miles (2/4/26). The service rep. said Honda was looking into the problem (CV joints/bearings), but there was no current solution, and they would contact me when a solution became available. The rep. said Honda did not consider this a safety issue. I also own a Honda Civic that has made almost identical clicking noises when…

The vehicle and diagnostic history are available for inspection upon request. The…
