Rearview System Braking problem #1

Rear traffic alert and e-braking not working or working intermittently. Vehicle is supposed to alert you to cross traffic and does not. . . Maybe works 1 out of 6 occurences. When you place the vehicle in reverse and proceed backwards, the rear of the vehicle appears on the screen but, does not alert you when a vehicle is approaching on the street that you are backing onto. Does not matter if it the vehicle comes from the left or right. Same can be said for pedestrians or bicycles - which it is supposed to detect. This has resulted in emergency stops nearly striking vehicle or bicyclist. This safety feature is pretty much useless and as such have turned it off. I researched this issue on reddit and various forums. It appears to be common in 2023-2025 Honda crv hybrid sport l. We owned a 2019 Honda crv with the same cross-traffic alert and it worked very reliably. Not the case for our brand new 2025 crv hybrid.

Warnings problem #2

My car is a total lemon/brick that goes into limp mode and gets stuck in accessory mode. It's a brand new Honda Cr-v 2025 less than 1250 miles. Its completely useless and makes me late for work. The car is not drivable when this happens. All safety systems are disabled, battery light, check engine light. The car states "see dealer", but the dealer refuses to work on my car. I need to report this as a safety concern so that this will turn into a recall as Honda says they are aware of the issue and can read the error codes.
