Software problems of the 2016 Honda Civic

Stationary car completely shut down, would not start, battery check ok, could not take out of park, had to have it towed to shop and have tcm replaced and software updated- in motion -steering wheel slips and shakes as well - very disappointed in Honda.

This is my second time. Parked car in garage ,after few hours tried to turn on. When we try to start it wonts, but the sign pops up saying electrical parking brake error. . Car had to be towed twice. Lucky car was in garage when both incident happened. Took it to dealer twice . Today we picked it up found dftc u3ooo-49,ecu internal circuit failure. They performed software update. They said it is ok this time. Can happen again. How can this problem be dealt? my daughter drives this car and she is moving to college in August and will need a car. Hope this problem is dealt quickly. If not will need to replace another car. I feel this is not safe for her to use.

On two occasions, my Civic has "locked up". Upon starting the vehicle, all of the warning light illuminate and the car won't go into gear. I was stuck where I was and had to get the car moving so I forcefully engaged the vehicle by inserting the key into the shift knob area. When driving the car, all of the warning lights were still on and the steering wheel was difficult to move, the vehicle was very hard to maneuver, the brakes did not work well, and the problem persisted. I eventually disconnected the battery and "reset" the computer that way. The problem went away for a few months, then came back again same exact way. The next time, I did the same thing, disconnected the battery and it reset. I do not know if this problem is with the electrical system, transmission, braking, or whatever. All I know is it was very dangerous to drive after I was finally able to engage the transmission. One other point to make, I already had the "parking brake recall" software update completed by Honda. The dealership said they did not have a recall for this type of problem and all they could do would be restart the car until they were able to recreate the problem. I did no think this was a good use of time (theirs or mine) so I am hoping for a recall soon!.

Upon starting vehicle, center console screen was black. When I tapped the power button, the screen flashed green and went black. No radio function, no camera function, nothing. I drove on city streets to the gas station and in a few minutes, the computer suddenly woke up by itself and has been fine since. Just called the service dept. Woman said no one has called about a problem like this, but they'd be happy to run a diagnostic for $100. I've been down this road before with my old prius. They'll run the diagnostic and tell me they can't find anything wrong because they can't recreate the problem. Meanwhile I'll be out $100 and my time. And looking at forums on the internet, this is a problem for other Honda owners, so Honda needs to do something about this. It can be a safety issue. Drive by wire is dangerous if manufacturers can't get reliable software. We'll see if I hear back from the service department or not about TSB or software updates. I doubt it.
