1 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 10/06/2026

This has happened multiple times within a couple of months. The automatic emergency breaking automatically breaks when there is no danger of a collision at all. The first time is when I was coming out from under an overpass on the highway, and the shadow made the car think that a collision was imminent and slammed on breaks. I was going 70 miles an hour and luckily no one was behind me. Another time was when I was driving through an area with road work and was following the path set by cones. The car thought I was going to run into the cones and slammed on breaks, although I was just turning with the bend that the cones created. The car hasn't been inspected by anyone.

2 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 10/03/2026

While driving at high speed, the vehicle falsely initiated severe emergency braking and aggressively shook the steering wheel, actively fighting my input to keep the car straight. My safety was at risk as well as others around me who had to brake and swerve to avoid collision while I struggled to get to the highway shoulder. The vehicle remains at the dealership as they are suggesting a steering column replacement. I have filed a case with Honda requesting a master technician perform a formal adas camera alignment and an eps circuit inspection, but they have not yet responded. Honda did approve the dealer's pre-authorization request to replace the steering column. There were no warnings prior to the incident, but as it was occurring, all of the warnings were cycling (brake system failure, steering system failure, road departure warning, battery, etc. ) until I made it to a local dealership who read the codes which showed internal steering module errors (u3000-49) and tracking failures occurred.
