LANE DEPARTURE: WARNING

Potential Consequences:

While driving on highways that have had repairs done my lane departure sensing system has kicked in and both jerked my car over as well automatically slowed the speed. The issue is that the car's sensors are reading the material used to repair the roads as if they are the lane markers and have pulled me out of an actual lane and caused my car to slow while on the expressway. Twice this has happened during rush hour and I was nearly rear ended twice and almost hit a car in the lane next to me once. To be clear: in each of these incidents I was in a proper lane and was not drifting. The lane had repairs/patches done which caused the car's sensors to misread the lane's boundaries.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER

Potential Consequences:

Our 2019 Honda Pilot is equipped with idle stop, where the vehicle shuts off when at a red light. The engine is supposed to restart once you release the brake peddle. However, there have been numerous times when it has been slow to start, or fail to restart. This causes a safety concern since you are stuck in an intersection with a green light and could get rear-ended. We are just outside the warranty and a dealer has not reproduced the problem. There are no other indication that the starter is bad and we've had the battery checked to make sure it is good.

The next day when starting my car to leave a parking lot the AWD warning light appeared on my dashboard. I turned the engine off then restarted the engine. The AWD warning light was off. I drove home without the AWD warning light reappearing.

I started the Honda Pilot drove on a driveway about 30 feet to an intersection. When clear I accelerated onto the road. The car was very slow to accelerate and I slowly rolled onto the road barely avoiding an oncoming car. While in my lane I stopped and observed an AWD warning light on the dashboard. I turned the engine off then restarted the engine. The AWD warning light was off and the car drove normally. The next day when starting my car to leave a parking lot the AWD warning light appeared on my dashboard. I turned the engine off then restarted the engine. The AWD warning light was off. I drove home without the AWD warning light reappearing.

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE: AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING

Potential Consequences:

When driving on the interstate, car automatically applied breaks at 70+ MPH bringing speed down to 55 or less as it sensed a car in the right lane. However, there was clear lanes and no potential impact for a crash. The breaking almost resulted in me getting rear ended. Also, there have been numerous instances where the car has had sensors go off for collision warnings when I am driving in the city and there is no car in sight or I am turning left at a stoplight. This is not safe and needs to be addressed.

Potential Consequences:

Car stalls at a stoplight. Battery was completely depleted so it wouldn't restart. I couldn't even open the windows on a hot day b/c the battery was depleted. Honda dealer in Richmond California tells me they can't replicate the issue and all the diagnostic tools they have indicate no problems. This is a serious safety issue that must be addressed.

Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? I will be taking it in on 9/29 for diagnosis, seeing that my VIN is not eligible for bulletin 20-051 when bulletin states " the rear view camera may not display when shifting to reverse" Service bulletin 20-047 was previously done on the 25th of September. Also, at the same time the rear camera stopped working, the rear wiper also stopped working. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No, it was not. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No, I had no indication prior to failure.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

We have had ongoing issues with the satellite cutting out and losing signal (can’t use GPS and the clock just says 8:00 no matter what time) since about 20,000 miles. The vehicle now has about 32,000 miles on it. The larger issue happened a few weeks back. We were driving the car, came up to a 4 way stop and the car turned off. Never came back on. Couldn’t put it in neutral and get the car pushed off the road because the shifter is electrical. Honda roadside and Honda service department both told us there is no override so we had to sit in moving lanes until a tow truck could come. Had the car towed and the service department said it was the battery. They recharged the battery and sent us home. Said the “cells” tested fine so they could just recharge it. Less than 3 weeks later the car was parked at work and started fine. Went to the store and it was dead after a 10 minute errand. Got it jumped and drove to the service dept. It died again in the service dept receiving lane. They are again saying it is a battery issue and planning to replace the battery this time but said it could take 3-5 more times of having the issue before they know what is draining the battery. The largest safety issue is that the vehicle just turns off without notice while driving and there is no way to get it moved to a safe location because it can’t be put into neutral without power

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

This has been happening for a while now, probably the past yet, but its happening more frequently now. I didn't think much of it until my husband noticed it while we were driving and started asking me about it and saying that could mean I have a transmission issue and need to get it looked at before my warranty is up since the car is relatively new and has less than 40,000 miles. My warranty is up to 80,000 miles. The date listed below is when my husband mentioned it. When accelerating, at low RPMs, usually between 1 and 2 rpm, the car hesitates accelerating. it lasts about 1 to 5 seconds. I initially noticed it at low speeds, but now it's doing the same thing at higher speeds, but always when it's a low rpms. It was sparsely happening, but now it's happening more frequently. Sometimes the hesitation is kinda jerking you a few times, but other times, its a longer hesitation and your car kinda makes a sound like it all of a sudden just decided it was going to kick into gear and start going again. This is a safety issue because if I'm pulling into traffic, changing lanes, crossing a road and my car hesitates or I can speed up fast enough when I should be able to, it could cause an accident. I'm taking it to get looks at by Honda Cars of Katy on 8/25/2021. They should be able to reproduce it since it happens quite frequently. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone yet for this issue. There are no warning lights or messages on either.
