SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
Car will brake when no one is near sometimes jamming on brakes. I reported it to dealer 2 times. They said no software updates avalable and no codes showing a problem. I left the dealer and drove less than 2 miles down the road when the brakes can on again. I returned to the dealer again when they informed me there is nothing they can do. Maybe I have a fly on the sensor setting it off. I replied don't try to BS me, I'm a CDL Driver for over 40 years.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING
Potential Consequences:
I purchased a 2021 Honda Passport Sport on April 30, 2021. Since purchasing the Passport, we have experienced a "Phantom Braking" problem, in which the automatic emergency braking system is deployed for a few seconds. This occurs several times a month. We have taken the Passport to a Honda dealer and they claimed that there maybe some type of obstruction on the emergency braking system camera that is causing the problem. We have not seen any obstruction on the camera and clean it regularly, but we still experience the braking issue. While no serious incident has occurred to date, we are extremely concerned that the braking issue could cause our Passport to brake and be rear ended by a car behind us.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL
Potential Consequences:
My son was driving on the highway with the adaptive cruise control on. The car in front of him stopped suddenly. The dashboard screen system flashed the word "brake" but not in enough time for him to react. He braked hard but he still rear-ended the car in front of him. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed because the car is no longer drivable. It is sitting at my house waiting for repair of $7,700 damage. I thought the "Honda Sensing System," the combination of the adaptive cruise control and emergency braking, was supposed to bring the car to a halt. My son and his 3 friends were put at risk. I'm very disappointed in the car.

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
My 2021 Honda Passport with under 12K miles has gone into Neutral on its own twice in the past year ( May and October of 2021) It has also slipped into low gear on its own (D1 of an automatic transmission from D3 or D4 in Oct 2021 and March 18 2021. The last incident forced me onto the shoulder to avoid serious injury as I was gaining speed to merge from an entry ramp to a 50 mph, 3 lane Rd. I brought it back to the Honda dealer after the March 18 incident and they told me they couldn't find anything wrong with it. I don't trust this transmission and will be forced to sell it back to Honda but am leery of it happening to someone else who may not be able to avoid an accident like I did. I also reported these incidents to Honda on 03/24/22 (case# 12912165)

POWER TRAIN
Potential Consequences:
Had the optional transmission cooler installed at the Honda dealership to help increase vehicle towing capacity. After install, when the vehicle shifts from 7-8 gear at light throttle application (approx. 45mph) the transmission makes a grinding noise. Took vehicle back to dealership and they inspected. They contacted Honda tech support and they stated it is a known design defect. They will not address it in anyway even though there are many possibilities to address this. Noise is energy and energy has to dissipate. I am concerned the grinding noise will start to wear something out and cause a failure later in the life of the transmission or the cooler.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
Potential Consequences:
Vehicle has LED headlights. In snowy conditions at night, buildup on headlights caused extremely reduced visibility. Required frequent pulling over, getting out of vehicle, and clearing headlights. Not a safe situation in the snow. Never had problems with halogen or HID lighting so I suspect it’s a heat issue due to LED lights operating much cooler. Also, snow buildup on grille emblem that houses radar for accident avoidance causes system failure which results in instrument display of failure. The warning box completely covers the speedometer so you have no idea of your speed. Also not good in snowy conditions. This can be turned off, but not while moving, and defeats the purpose of the avoidance system.
