I'm driving on the highway approx 70-75mph. as I am slowing down and moving over to the exit ramp all of a sudden the automatic emergency braking system starts braking! This almost caused a rear end collision from the car behind me. He had to swerve a little to miss me. He was pretty angry and most likely thought it was my intention to brake that hard. It was extremely frightening and I am wondering if I should just turn off this safety feature until Honda figures this out?

Car starting throwing all error codes at once. No issues driving, took to mechanic, could not find any issues. Did this 3 times, was advised to see Honda dealer for possible computer system update. Honda said it needs all fuel injectors and fuel joint pipe replaced, due to clogged injectors. No indication of this problem, no fuel loss or engine issues. This is a 2018 with 60,000 miles. Have looked this issue up, found that it is a known issue with Honda. They will not warranty the fix, wanting to charge $1723.08 to correct.

Turn my car on and every light on my car is currently flashing saying nothing safety wise is working. Googled it and it seems to be a major problem that Honda isn’t fixing.

On December 1, 2022, I was driving my 2018 Honda CRV on an expressway at 45-50 mph when the car's automatic braking system activated the brakes unexpectedly while the vehicle was moving forward. I was driving in the middle lane on an expressway with nothing close in front of me and it happened without reason or warning. My passenger and I were lurched forward. Fortunately, no one was driving close behind me. The dealer has not been notified at the time of writing this complaint.

On 11/30/22 my wife was driving at 32 mph with no vehicles in front, when suddenly, CR-V brake warning light flashed and came to a complete stop. Approx. 20 minutes later vehicle did it again but, this time not a complete stop. Concerned about this happening at higher rate of speed and getting rear ended. Called dealer and no recalls. I have read on internet, other drivers having similar experience with these models. This would be the third time in 6 months that it has happened. No warnings prior to incident happening, just flashing brake warning light with tone.

The brake light came on , the seatbelt tightened around my neck and the car just came to a stop throwing my neck forward but there was no car in front of me and no cars on the side of me.

I was in a parking lot leaving from my job in am. Clear weather 65° As I was driving 7mph the car slammed on the brakea if an object or vehicle was in front of me. No advanced warning s. There was nothing in front of me. This is the 2nd time this has happened to me and twice when my son was driving. His speed was approx40mph and the brakes slammed on with nothing crossing or in front of his path. I currently have an appointment at 1030 this am to take to Honda dealership to get an assessment. This is extremely troubling and dangerous. My daughter is driving with her learners permit in this vehicle. Please fix immediately!!!!
