Dashboard all warning lights flashing. Unable to see how fast I’m going. Has happened multiple times in the past months. And Is also a safety distraction. Light will not turn off unless I connect and disconnect the battery, which will still happen again either way in about a week.

-The Collision Mitigation System (CMS). - The CMS system has deployed numerous times over the last six months (approximately) without warning for no reason. The last time, I was traveling at approximately 45-50 mph and without warning and with no car within 100 yards of my vehicle, the brakes were automatically applied taking my speed instantaneously down to less than 10 mph, creating a very unsafe situation, especially if there had been a car traveling closely behind. -The vehicle was brought to a Honda dealer who ran tests and said there were no code errors. I was told that if the system applied the brakes that it proves that it is working correctly, even though I argued that they may technically be working but not appropriately. -Yes it was seen at a Honda dealer. -There were no warning signals when this occurred. It was totally out of the blue and caused a whiplash affect. -In my opinion this is a very dangerous situation and luckily it has not been serious any of the times it has happened to date. I would hate for it to be serious in the future and cause serious or fatal injuries. Currently we have to manually shut off the CMS every time we are driving.

The vehicle began running rough Spring 2023 and all the lights on the dashboard lit up. The local mechanic did not identify any serious problem and the lights all going off seemed to be a separate issue since the whole dashboard was lit up. We continued driving it out of necessity and eventually it began stalling. Then we took it back to our mechanic who identified the fuel injectors as the issue and recommended that we take it to the dealership. We took it to the dealership and they charged $3000 for the fuel injector replacement and also did some minor recall repairs. When my husband drove it off the lot, it stalled again so he brought it back and identified that it still was not repaired. They then kept it for 2-3 more weeks and repaired the head gasket. We took it home and drove it for another 6 mths and then it stalled again when my husband was driving at 65mph on a bridge. He safely pulled over but the vehicle had trouble restarting as it had in Spring of 2023 from time to time when it was riding rough. This time there were no warning lights related to the issue. The dash now has some warning lights. We have not driven it since and the part for the fuel pump from Honda is not available until Fall 2024 so we are without a vehicle even though we paid for a new vehicle that we hoped would last us beyond 6 years.
