1 Steering problem

Failure Date: 06/30/2026

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? the rear subframe, specifically the passenger-side rear suspension mounting bracket, is failing due to severe, premature corrosion. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? my safety was put at extreme risk because a local authorized Honda dealership fraudulently closed out an active, critical safety recall (NHTSA campaign number 26v-365) without actually performing the mandated repair. They returned the vehicle to me to drive on public roads with a heavily rusted, structurally compromised rear subframe where the flange seams are actively separating. Driving this vehicle poses a critical, ongoing risk because the rear control arm mounting points could fracture and fail. Such a failure would cause the rear wheels to become misaligned or inadequately retained, resulting in a sudden and catastrophic loss of vehicle handling, stability, and braking performance. ?has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? the local authorized Honda dealership explicitly acknowledged the open recall during my initial service visit and stated they needed to order the remedy parts. They subsequently contacted me to bring the vehicle back under the pretense that the parts had arrived. They released the vehicle back to me and marked the recall as officially completed in their system. However, physical inspection of the undercarriage confirms the passenger-side subframe bracket remains completely bare, unreinforced, and heavily corroded. Because official corporate recall notices confirm that the required replacement parts are globally backordered until the fall, it is physically impossible for the dealership to have performed the installation, confirming they falsified the repair record and returned an unsafe vehicle. Prior to the dealer visits, I experienced significant shuddering and abnormal vibrations from the rear suspension.

2 Steering problem

Failure Date: 05/23/2026

I purchased this vehicle at the end of February 2026. Since the purchase this vehicle has on numerous occasions for no reason applied the brakes and made the steering wheel shake. This has almost caused an accident on several occasions, with today another instance on 5-23-2026. I would turn the system off but from what I understand it re-engages itself after every drive. I like the vehicle but im afraid that its going to cause an accident or someones death. Had I known that I couldn't permanently turn off this dangerous system I would have never bought it and bought a Lexus SUV instead. Honda should give their customers who want to turn this system off a way to do so.

3 Steering problem

Failure Date: 08/17/2019

I was driving on the highway at 65mph. All of a sudden the vehicle started to slow down at a very fast rate cutting my speed in half. 2 errors appeared on the dashboard. "transmission problem, apply parking brake when parked. " and "blind spot info system problem. " luckily I was able to pull over just in the right time, but the vehicle was starting to get very hard to control while steering as this was all happening. The vehicle started to control me meaning j almost couldn't steer it where it needed to go and I could not accelerate at all on the highway. The vehicle kept slowing down. I was on the shoulder of the highway around a sharp turn and I was terrified that someone would slam right into me. It took a tow truck 1 hour to arrive. The dealer has never heard of this issue before. I'm waiting to hear back from them as they still have m vehicle. Wilde Honda waukesha, WI.
