2024 Honda Prologue

The CV Joints on both sides of the front axel (left and right) were failing and replaced in December. They are already failing again and have to be replaced again. But Honda is just replacing them with the same parts, seemingly unconcerned that it poses a significant safety risk. Here is the summary as I understand it: A failing CV joint on a Honda Prologue often starts with clicking/popping noises when turning, vibrations, and potential power loss, but can escalate to the joint disintegrating, causing the axle to break, leading to the wheel locking up and potential loss of control, making the vehicle undrivable and unsafe. Many owners report issues with premature CV axle failure, characterized by these symptoms, sometimes leading to a complete axle replacement under warranty. The clunking noise is what has been the biggest teller for us, confirmed upon inspection. This started around 8k miles and was repaired around 8,900 miles. We're at 9,100 miles and it is failing again (january). It is covered under warranty - for now. But since they're just replacing them with the original parts that are failing (presumably because of the weight of the vehicle) this will keep happening. I shudder to think not only of the safety issues but the potential cost once the warranty ends - which isn't much longer.

Automatic Emergency Braking often triggers for no reason when backing up this vehicle. This is a safety issue 1) Random stops in a parking lot are disorienting to both the driver of the car and the drivers around them 2) The AEB system creates a very hard stop. During the last incident I was with my father who had recently had neck surgery and had additional pain for about 2 days after the false AEB trigger. Thankfully, it did not trigger any long term complications.

The vehicle makes clicking/popping noises when steering. It starts only when turning the wheel hard one way or the other. As the problem gets worse, turning slightly is enough to make clicking noise. CV Joints/Axles have been replaced every 3,000 miles on my vehicle; around 3,000 and 6,000 miles. Honda seems to be aware of this issue, but is using the same parts to replace the bad joints every time. So it seems the problem is destined to repeat itself over and over. I am wondering when this will become a safety issue. Especially once my warranty runs out and it becomes exorbitant to replace the joints for myself.

This is not one incident, but a building problem. We are hearing a clicking sound from the front of the car whenever making a turn. I think it is the same CV joint problem so many other Prologue owners are complaining about. Is this dangerous? This is our fourth Honda vehicle, and one would expect a reputable company like Honda to stand by their vehicles. A recall is certainly warranted with so many having this issue.

The vehicle's steering and suspension are making a clicking noise at the CV joint. There are no clear dashboard signs or error indicating that there is an issue with the vehicle. Multiple service department members at Honda dealerships have noted a large number of problems related to this topic. The car will be taken to the dealership on January 31, 2026, for inspection. The service department mentioned that the vehicle will be inspected and a service notice will be created, but there is no solution for this safety issue.
