While driving on a city street at about 25 to 30 mph with no cars or people in front of me and on a clear day, my Civic's collision mitigation braking system flashed "brakes" on my heads up display and at the same time, it forcefully applied the brakes without me touching the brake pedal. This has happened to me at least twice in six weeks. In both instances, I tried to press on the gas pedal, but it did not let up on the brakes right away. I was nearly rear-ended by other cars both times, putting me and others at risk. I took the car to the dealership, and they told me they couldn't find any issues or codes, nor could they replicate the problem.
My 2021 Honda Civic ex’ forward collision sensor light flashed mid intersection my brakes locked up causing me to be a victim of a hit and run. As I was in between policies with my insurance therefore I wasn’t covered for the accident and I am now suffering financial hardships. . Dealership didn’t want to hear what I had to say because it was a new car & no recalls were announced at the time.
Car will display brake on the dashboard, and automatically brake without an object in front of vehicle, causing vehicles to have to slam on their brakes to avoid collision. Has happen multiple times. Dealership was unable to replicate the problem as it is very unpredictable and does not have any consistency as to when it happens.
Rodents chewed thru the main computer cable while car was parked in our car port. When I went to start car it started but immediatley the warning lights on dash began flashing that the road assist features, brakes and steering were not operating. Called road side assistance for a tow to arrowhead Honda were they replaced main computer cable and reprogrammed computer. This is the second time this has happened. I think the manufacture should change the exterior coating on the cable should be changed to a material that rodents are not attracted to.
Forward collision warning and braking has falsely activated with no vehicles ahead of car. First, "brake" warning flashed for no reason while driving on a three lane road on virginia rt 286 and rt 50 interchange. Second, driving in right lane, vehicle ahead was taking exit and was clear of my path, car flashed brake warning, then started braking. Third, while using adaptive cruise control (acc) on highway, a passing car changed lanes into my lane. Due to distance, a car length, and smaller speed difference, emergency brakes activated. However, if a passing car operating at a faster speed (>5 mph est. ) the car won't brake. The third problem is annoying as it creates an unsafe situation for people following too close (which they should not). Additionally, my brain is processing the situation faster than the Honda sense can, Honda needs to expand their recall from accord, cr-v, and pilot to all vehicles with Honda sense.
