2024 Honda Prologue

I leased this vehicle approximately three weeks ago, yesterday as I was adjusting the dashboard lighting, the service high voltage battery warning came on. Now the vehicle wont take a charge, the vehicle has changed the charge setting to 40%, and I cannot increase it. I 've reserved an appointment for 4/11/2025 for the vehicle to be serviced, and was told that I wont be given a loaner vehicle. This entire scenario is very inconvenient to say the least. This my first Honda and probably my last. I feel that my safety is at risk in this case, as I cant drive it now, since I cant recharge the battery, so the vehicle is totally unreliable at this time. There were no warning signs of this issue, and I'm grateful that the vehicle didnt die in the middle of rush hour traffic, or leave me stranded somewhere.

After having my car plugged in over night, I unplugged my vehicle and put the cap on the charger. Since I was going to be gone for 4 days, I decided to unplug my charger from the wall. Since I had turned my back to the charging port, I didn’t notice the charge door was still open. I got in the car and I proceeded to back out of the garage with the door ajar. There is a warning light on the dash but while in reverse in a garage, a number of parking sensors are always beeping so I was desensitized to beeps. The charge door caught the side of the garage door and bent too far backwards and broke. I really wish the vehicle either made you acknowledge the warning before it would move or the warning showed up on the camera screen as well, where your eyes are drawn while reversing versus the screen in front of you.

Where to begin? not even 2 weeks after having this vehicle it nearly caused a major accident and gave me whiplash & neck problems (have doctors documentation as proof) when the automatic breaking system hard breaked my vehicle twice in the same trip (20 minutes from work to home) with the second time resulting in my car skidding quite a few feet on a highway in the middle of rush hour traffic (want to note the distance in front of the car was quite significant both times) also both CV joint axles need replacing on top of rear passenger door is not the right size & often pops open. Honda dealership has my vehicle for 31 days back in December January stating parts for door would be in within the month and the cv axle would be beginning of march. here it is March 26th and I've heard nothing from the dealership after multiple attempts of trying to get a hold of them. also worked with Honda and opened a claim who also is ignoring my calls. I hardly want to touch the vehicle as I'm afraid of it causing a major accident or the door popping open as I'm driving with my children in the car.

Every time this car comes to a stop, it rocks back and forth significantly on its suspension. Even at low speeds, it is noticeable when breaking, with about a second and a half of five to six rebounds back and forth. It is highly prominent with stronger braking or stop-and-go traffic, resulting in about two seconds of hard rocking back and forth. This problem happens more when the car is being driven in normal mode, meaning using both the acceleration and brake pedals; it’s less pronounced when driving in “one-pedal” mode. I took the car to the dealer service department, and they tested my car and other Prologues. The service department manager said this seems to be a problem in all the Prologues, even a 2025 model they tested. This problem is causing motion sickness for me and my wife, which can lead to distractions and potentially unsafe behaviors as explained below: * Distraction: Passengers experiencing motion sickness may be too focused on their discomfort to pay attention to the road or the driver, which can be dangerous. * Nausea and Vomiting: Nausea and vomiting can cause a passenger to become ill, which can be a distraction and potentially lead to unsafe behaviors like reaching for a trash bag or losing control of their body. * Safety of the Driver: If a passenger struggles with motion sickness, the driver may be distracted by the passenger's discomfort, which can lead to unsafe driving behaviors. * Increased Risk of Accidents:If a passenger becomes ill and the driver is distracted, the risk of accidents increases. Even though the dealership acknowledged that this seems to be a widespread problem based on the tests that their service department did, they are unwilling to take action until an official recall is in place. Please help.

As I was coming to a stop light, the radio stopped working. A message came up..."Tuner unavailable. This may fix itself. If not, restart your vehicle. Vechicle may need service." Soon after this, my blinker stopped working. I was able to proceed with the left hand turn but then dashboards (left and radio one) all went blank. I was able to drive to get to a safe spot. In doing so, the dashboard did come back on and I was able to drive onward. THIS WAS A VERY NERVE WRACKING EXPERIENCE NOT HAVING SIGNALS!

When starting vehicle, lights for Propulsion Power is Limited lights and service vehicle soon lights came on. I tried to shift into reverse, but got a warning message that the conditions for shifting error, I also could not shift to drive. I only have had the car for 2 weeks. I called the honda warranty, they arranged to have it towed to dealership. 2 different service people tried troubleshooting the problem on site with no success. It was towed and dropped off after hours at a Honda service center. The tech called the next day stating that the problem could not be recreated and all diagnostic tests came out good. Waiting and wondering when this car is going to leave me stranded again.

When using the Honda link app, sometimes the app experiences issues and the signal is never sent to the vehicle. If the keys are lost, this would create a safety issue in case of an emergency when access to the vehicle is needed. This issue has not been confirmed by the dealership and I have not contacted the manufacturer. The app in general does not update and or fails to display the vehicle information at times.
