I leased a Honda Prologue on June 25, 2025. Approximately two months ago, I began noticing a noise coming from the front axles when turning left or right. I scheduled an appointment with my nearest Honda dealership and reported the issue. A few hours later, I was informed that the matter is currently under investigation and that Honda does not have a solution at this time. I also contacted Honda of America directly and was advised that there is still no resolution for this issue. My primary concern is safety. I am unsure whether this unresolved issue could develop into a more serious problem in the future, especially since this vehicle is regularly used by my wife to transport our son to school. This uncertainty is extremely concerning. I find it unacceptable and disrespectful for Honda to sell or lease a vehicle with a known defect and no available solution. I expect a reliable and safe vehicle, particularly from a brand with Honda’s reputation.

The camera visibility systems on this vehicle become extremely dark and largely unusable at night. This affects multiple cameras, including the rear backup camera, which is the most problematic. In low-light conditions, the display does not provide a usable image of the area around or behind the vehicle. When reversing at night, the rear camera image becomes so dark that pedestrians, obstacles, or other vehicles behind the car cannot be seen. This creates a significant safety hazard because the driver cannot rely on the camera system to safely maneuver or reverse the vehicle. All rear lights and exterior lighting on the vehicle are functioning properly, which suggests the issue is related to the camera system itself, image processing, or the vehicle’s configuration for low-light conditions rather than a lighting failure. Because the rearview camera system is intended to provide rear visibility and prevent back-over incidents, the system failing to provide a usable image at night defeats its intended safety purpose and creates a risk of a back-over crash or collision. The issue has been persistent since the vehicle was delivered and occurs consistently during nighttime operation and other low-light conditions. The rear visibility system appears unable to perform its intended safety function under normal nighttime driving conditions, raising concerns about whether the system is functioning as required under Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 111 (Rear Visibility).

Vehicle was taken to dealer for click noise Hurd while turning right around only 4k miles. The dealer confirmed the noise using a mechanics ear they said as of right now no replacement has been authorized. Honda is investigating. January 2026 car started clicking while in curves and any movement in steering. Still no fix. March 2026 still not fix because Honda hasn’t investigated yet and now my system has horrible issues with the auto break and rear collision avoidance system. Hondas “fix” turn it off. Why wouldn’t get a touring model with all those features just to have them tuned off.

May 14, 2026

American Honda Motor Company (Honda) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Honda Prologue and 2024 Acura ZDX vehicles. The rearview camera screen may display a distorted or blank image.

Consequence & remedy

Consequence: A rearview image that does not display correctly reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

Remedy: Dealers will replace the rearview camera, free of charge. Interim letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed July 7, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, anticipated in late 2026. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's numbers for this recall are DO5 and RO6. The information in your report suggests that Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) may have been aware of this issue more than five business days before filing a report with NHTSA. Please be reminded that under Federal law, this agency is to be notified of all safety defect and/or noncompliance decisions within five business days. 49 CFR 573.6 Significant civil penalties can be assessed for this violation.
