1 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 06/12/2024

Was driving through highway construction site. One lane, jersey walls close on both sides. A lane shift was forced by the jersey walls and my vehicle slammed the brakes causing me to need to very accurately control steering during this unnecessary emergency braking situation. Cars behind me had no way to drive around or a shoulder for an out. Traffic was heavy, lucky that no accident occurred. Other less dramatic events have occurred with the auto braking as well. The front collision warning without auto-braking occurs on nearly every drive.

2 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 03/27/2024

On this day it was approximately 5:45am my 2023 Honda Passport indicated to brake in the dash then proceeded to snatch me into a curb at 50 mph. I have since taken it back to the dealership where they can not diagnose the problem. I have contacted Honda corp. Which they haven't been able to help. The dealership stated that they could not preform an alignment as my frame or suspension may be damaged or bent.

3 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 01/17/2024

I was traveling on a visible highway, no weather conditions and my vehicle snatched me into the other lane almost striking the vehicle next to me. I waited to see if it would happen again and then my aeb started just randomly slamming on breaks when vehicles in the oncoming lane were approaching. I contacted my local Honda dealership (walsh Honda, macon, GA) they inspected the vehicle and found no issues. The advisor stated this issue has been reported before and there is nothing they can do because the system "is not a human and cant detect if the car is in another lane just the sensor bouncing off of the other car". I have since had more issues with the lkas snatching me in and out of my lane and the aeb partially slamming on the breaks for no reason. I have had multiple cars and never experienced this with any other brands safety systems except the 2 Honda's I have owned.

4 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 11/02/2023

This has happened 7 times since I have owned the car (purchased April 2023). On regular asphalt roads in clear daytime weather with no cars in front of me (and usually no cars behind), the emergency braking system goes nuts and slams on the brakes and the wheel starts shaking. The roads have never been wet, and there has never been debris or other objects around; I live in a semi-rural area with no curbs, guardrails or other close peripheral objects that could confuse the system. It's bad enough that the front rotors became warped and I had to replace them or deal with rumbling brakes. It also almost caused an accident the one time there was someone behind me, as they almost rear-ended my vehicle. Fortunately, that driver was paying attention. I would take the vehicle back if it didn't have 11k miles on it already. Having your vehicle suddenly stop completely out of your control on the highway is going to get someone killed. Hopefully not me!.

5 Warnings problem

Failure Date: 05/02/2023

Twice I had all kinds of safety alerts were scrolling on may 2nd ans August 7th. . First it was a fluid leak and cable. Second there was a piece of metal in the brakes. Abs sensor full of grease. Now sometimes brakes is flashing for no reason (like going uphill) and if I need to brake at a higher speed on the freeway, the brakes make a sound of pots and pans rattling. As I have no confidence in the brakes, I tried downshifting but the car speeds up. From time to time the car speeds up or slows down without any reason as I am not using cruise control. Forward collision warning does not work properly, in fact collision mitigation system is not fiable. I get a warning sign for the back seats when there is nobody and nothing on the seats. Everything is very irregular.
