The vehicle's infotainment system displays an OTA software update error message on every startup. Honda dealerships are unable to address this issue without further intervention and software updates from Honda corporate. Dealer has stated that this issue may interfere with reliable over-the-air software updates, including any potential safety-related updates delivered through this OTA system.
Have received notification many months ago that my car has a recall on the tire repair kit. Have been told it’s been back ordered for months. Have called multiple dealerships and being told the same thing. This is a safety issue and unacceptable at this point.
In May 2025, I received an error message upon vehicle start up which states “Software update is not available. Please see your dealer.” This error has continued to appear each time the vehicle is started. When I took it to my dealer in May 2025, they told me that there was nothing they could do and that Honda had to put out an o…

In May 2025, I received an error message upon vehicle start up which states “Software update is not available. Please see your dealer.” This error has continued to appear each time the vehicle is started. When I took it to my dealer in May 2025, they told me that there was nothing they could do and that Honda had to put out an over the air software update to fix the issue. I have asked about this during subsequent dealer visits and each time they say the same thing. The issue has not been fixed nearly 14 months now.
While driving on the Florida Turnpike Friday 05/15/2026, sunroof spontaniously shattered. It was a clear day and no cars around me. I have paid to get it fixed but I believe this is a saftey issue and should be recalled and money spent reimbursed..
I was driving on the interstate heading to work and suddenly heard an intense loud pop like a gunshot. My sunroof shattered right on top of me and all over the inside of my car. Thankfully I was able to safely pull off to the shoulder but it could've caused a serious incident.

The moonroof is available for immediate inspection. Rudolph Honda in El Paso, Texas, refused to inspect it despite the severity of the incident. The glass shattered directly above my head while driving, creating an extreme risk of a major crash, permanent eye injury, or even death. This is not an isolated event—there are numerous reported cases of this vehicle’s moonroof spontaneously breaking. A third‑party autoglass specialist contracted by the dealership inspected the damage and confirmed an internal failure. The vehicle provided no warnings, alerts, or signs of any kind before the failure occurred.
This windshield should be recalled this is the second time a rock cracked it. I have only had the car 9 months.
