I EXPERIENCED BIG JERKS COUPLE OF TIMES AND LOST THE CONTROL ON THE VEHICLE. SAW ERROR MESSAGE ON THE DASH BOARD SAYING 'LOST TRACTION AND CANCELLING CRUISE CONTROL'. IT WAS HORRIFIC EXPERIENCE.

CAR HAS BEEN IN MOTION AND STATIONARY WHEN ALL DASH LIGHTS COME ON, NO SYSTEMS WORK ACCORDING TO THE DASHBOARD. WHEN DASH LIGHTS WITH EVERY SINGLE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING, ALL POWER AND ACCELERATION IS LOST. THIS HAPPENED TO ME IN AN INTERSECTION THE OTHER DAY AND LUCKILY THE CRV WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE THE CRV WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AGAIN UNTIL I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS BLOGS WITH OTHERS HAVING THIS ISSUE. VTM-4 POPS UP ON THE RADIO SCREEN AS A PROBLEM. HONDA CLAIMS TO HAVE FIXED THIS ISSUE ON THE 2019 MODELS YET NO RECALL ON 2017 AND 2018 MODELS? THIS LOSS OF POWER AND CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IS ESPECIALLY SCARY SINCE I HAVE 2 YOUNG KIDS THAT RIGHT WITH ME DAILY. CRUISE CONTROL WON'T WORK, REMOTE START HASN'T WORKED SINCE THIS ISSUE STARTED AROUND 60-70K MILES. HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS MAJOR PROBLEM!
MY VEHICLE'S WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON FOR ALL FEATURES, INCLUDING LANE ASSIST, STABILITY, COLLISION MITIGATION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING AND MANY OTHERS.

MY VEHICLE'S WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON FOR ALL FEATURES, INCLUDING LANE ASSIST, STABILITY, COLLISION MITIGATION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING AND MANY OTHERS. THESE FEATURES ARE CURRENTLY NOT WORKING. THE FIRST TIME THE ISSUE OCCURRED WAS IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS THREE TIMES. THE THIRD TIME, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH A FUEL VALVE -- PART OF A HONDA "CAMPAIGN," WHATEVER THAT MEANS -- AND THAT REPLACING/REPAIRING THE ISSUE COULD TAKE UP TO 60 DAYS. I WAS DISMISSED FROM THE DEALER AND TOLD THAT THE ISSUE WOULD NOT MAKE MY CAR STOP WORKING, AND THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN A PART ARRIVED. MEANWHILE, MY CAR IS IDLING ROUGH AND I SMELL GAS UPON STARTING IT.

DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, 65 MPH, WITH ACC CRUISE CONTROL ON. SUDDENLY IT DEACTIVATED. WARNING LIGHT FOR ACC/ ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION/ COLLISION MITIGATION AND BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEMS WARNING INDICATORS CAME ON. BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING WAS PARTICULARLY STRESSFUL. I TRIED BRAKES AND THEY SEEMED NORMAL BUT ACC DEFINITELY DID NOT WORK. TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO TURN OFF SYSTEM AND TURN IT BACK ON TO NO AVAIL. WINDSHIELD WAS CLEAN AS WAS FRONT SENSOR AREA. AS I WAS ON A HIGHWAY I COULDN'T STOP. AN HOUR LATTER, WHILE STILL ON THE ROAD WARNING LIGHTS WENT OFF AND ALL SYSTEMS WERE AVAILABLE. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT HAD HAPPENED. NOW A MONTH LATER SAME HAPPENED AGAIN AND SYSTEM RECOVERED IN ABOUT AN HOUR WHILE STILL DRIVING. LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM WAS STILL WORKING WHILE THE OTHER SYSTEMS WENT OUT SO THE CAMERA WAS STILL FUNCTIONING. CAR SEEMED TO FUNCTION NORMALLY WHILE THESE SYSTEMS WERE OUT. AS A FORMER MECHANIC,POLICE DRIVING INSTRUCTOR AND CRASH RECONSTRUCTIONIST I KNOW THAT THIS CAN NOT BE CAUSED BY "LOW GAS" OR "GAS IN THE OIL". THIS IS AN ELECTRONICS PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION THREE TIMES.

APPEARS TO HAPPEN AT RANDOM. FIRST VISIT TO DEALER, WE WERE ADVISED THEY DID NOT SEE ANY CODES AND THERE WAS NO MALFUNCTION AT THAT TIME.

WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT IS RIGHT NOW AND THEY ARE ADVISING THAT IT IS A FUEL ISSUE AND GASOLINE IS GETTING INTO THE OIL . NO EXPLANATION HOW OR WHY THIS IS CAUSING THE SAFETY SYSTEMS TO GO OFFLINE AND BECOME INOPERABLE. HAVE CONTACTED HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES ALONG THEY WAY, CURRENTLY WAITING ON A CASE MANAGER TO CALL BACK.

I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR HOME, BUT WHEN I WAS GOING TO TAKE IT THE DEALERSHIP, THE CAR SPUTTERED AND SEEMS TO BE LOSING POWER AS IF IT WOULD STALL. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT I HAVE GOTTEN SYSTEM ALERTS AND TAKEN THE CAR TO BE REPAIRED. THE FIRST TIME, THE OIL WAS CHANGED AND A SOFTWARE UPDATE PERFORMED. THE SECOND TIME, A SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED. THIS TIME, I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS OVER FULL AND SMELLED OF GAS. THE CAR IS NOW AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. I LIVE IN TEXAS. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, WAS DURING THE SUMMER. THE LAST TWO TIMES HAVE BEEN IN WINTER.

On February 21, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22003) to assess reports of inadvertent activation of the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), an automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, in model year 2017-2019 Honda CR-V and 2018-2019 Honda Accord vehicles. The reports allege that activation of the AEB system occurs while driving with no apparent obstruction in the vehicle's forward path, resulting in sudden vehicle deceleration. Honda indicated that they were aware of a total of X,XXX reports that may relate to the alleged defect. Honda provided analysis of the alleged defect and alleges that some customers possibly had an inadequate understanding of the CMBS and its limitations. However, many consumer complaints allege that Honda dealerships were unable to reproduce the condition or state that they were informed that this is considered normal CMBS operation. To date, ODI has received a total of 1,294 consumer complaints of inadvertent activation of CMBS in 2017-2022 Honda CR-V and 2018-2022 Honda Accord vehicles. A total of 31 complaints alleged a crash and 50 alleged an injury. The Total column in the Failure Report Summary removes duplicate reports and shows the total number of reports with unique VINs from all Manufacturer, ODI, and EWR data sources. In some cases, there were multiple reports associated with a particular vehicle in which recurring failures were alleged. In total, there were X,XXX reports, 93 injury incidents and 47 crashes involving vehicles with unique VINs that may relate to the alleged defect. PE22-003 has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis to further assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety related consequences of the inadvertent AEB activations. The scope has been expanded to include assessment of model year 2020-2022 Honda CR-V and Accord vehicles.

In total, there were X,XXX reports, 84 injury incidents and 40 crashes involving vehicles with unique VINs that may relate to the alleged defect. PE22003 has been upgraded to an Engineering Analysis (EA24002) to further assess the scope, frequency, and potential safety related consequences of the inadvertent AEB activations. Further the scope has been expanded to include assessment of model year 2020-2022 Honda CR-V and Accord vehicles.

Forward Collision Avoidance: Automatic Emergency Braking
On February 21, 2022, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened Preliminary Evaluation (PE22003) to assess reports of inadvertent activation of the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS), an automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, in model year 2017-2019 Honda CR-V and 2018-2019 Honda Accord vehicles. The reports allege that activation of the AEB system occurs while driving with no apparent obstruction in the vehicle's forward path, resulting in sudden vehicle deceleration. Honda indicated that they were aware of a total of X,XXX reports that may relate to the alleged defect. Honda provided analysis of the alleged defect and alleges that some customers possibly had an inadequate understanding of the CMBS and its limitations. However, many consumer complaints allege that Honda dealerships were unable to reproduce the condition or state that they were informed that this is considered normal CMBS operation. To date, ODI has received a total of 1,081 consumer complaints of inadvertent activation of CMBS in the subject vehicles. A total of 24 complaints alleged a crash and 42 alleged an injury.
