Automatic Emergency Braking problem

2025 Honda Passport with 10k miles ***braking issues - -collision mitigation system going off randomly and often, with no oncoming traffic, no obstacles or obstructions. -phantom braking and “brake” warning/steering wheel shake. Occurs often on windy, hilly roads with sharp curves, often to the right. Branches, guard rails, etc will activate the system at high speeds 50 mph and over, causing serious safety concerns of the vehicle stopping for no true cause. -white cars in oncoming traffic seemingly activate the “brake” warning on occasion. -“brake” warning went off and significantly slowed the car when a water filled pothole was to the right. -issues have occurred with no cars ahead of the Passport. ***engine issues after getting fuel - -after getting gas, check engine, power steering, and battery light will sometimes turn on. Only resolution is to restart the vehicle. -brake pedal was also hard/stuck after getting gas, and vehicle could not be turned on until brake was pushed extremely hard/pumped. Power steering light came on after this incident. ***lights- -automatic adjusting high beams turn on and off erratically. Cannot use the automated system. ***transmission- -engine braking downhill on one or two occasions would not allow car to shift back up. Had to use paddle shifters to get the car moving again. Dealership cannot replicate these issues on a short ride with their tech, therefore the vehicle is “fine. ”.
