2019 HONDA INSIGHT Complaints

ACC, CMBS, RDM PROBLEM LIGJTS ARE ON. IT HAPPENS TWICE TIME WITHIN A YEAR OF OWNING THE CAR. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AFTER 3 DAYS OF PURCHASED THE NEW CAR (1ST TIME) AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT'S EXACTLY PROBLEM. THEY TRIED TO RESET THE SYSTEM AND IT WORKED. THEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN, SAME ISSUE, I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THIS TIME THEY WANTED ME TO REPLACE/REAIM THE SENSOR THAT ON THE FRONT BUMPER. THIS TIME THEY BLAMED IT ON THE MISSING COVER. I DID SOME RESEARCH ONLINE, IT'S A VERY COMMON ISSUE AND IT SHOULD BE THE MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. THEY NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT BECAUSE IT COULD LEAD TO SOME SERIOUS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HONDA INSIGHT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND WAS ABLE TO DRIVE NORMAL. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE HIS WIFE AND A FRIEND WAS DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER NOR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V314000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

MY 2019 HONDA INSIGHT WAS PURCHASED IN FEB 2020 FROM A LEXUS DEALERSHIP IN ORLANDO. THE CAR WAS FUNCTIONING WITH NO ISSUES UNTIL JULY 2020. WHILE DRIVING THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE WARNING CAME ON SUDDENLY IT SAID TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH HEADQUARTER HONDA AND BROUGHT IN THE CAR.THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTIC AND SAID THAT THE CAR MUST HAVE BEEN HIT WITH SOMETHING. NOTHING HAS HIT THE CAR THE CAR FAX IS CLEAN THE TECH INSISTED THAT THE CAR WAS PROBABLY IN AN ACCIDENT. WHEN IN FACT THE BRAKE FAILURE LIGHT TURNED OFF ON THE WAY HOME AND STAYED OFF FOR A FEW DAYS ONLY TO RETURN AGAIN. HONDA WOULD NOT PAY TO REPAIR THIS AND SAID IT WOULD BE $1700 TO INSTALL A NEW RADAR CAMERA. THE CAR HAS LESS THAN 10K MILES AND IS UNDER WARRANTY. THERE IS SOMETHING DEFECTIVE WITH THE SAFETY SYSTEM ON THIS VEHICLE.

HONDA INSIGHT 2019 ..AC PROBLEM CONDECAR DEFECTED AND LEAK ...TO FIX THAT PROBLEM DEALER ASK 1300 DOLLAR CAR ONLY ONE YEAR OLD WITH SUMMER TIME 90 DEGREE OUT SIDE I HAD ONLY 64100 MILES HIGHWAY ..DEALER SAY THAT S NOT RECALL ON INSIGHT AND THE CAR NON UNDER WARRANTY THEY ONLY DO RECALL ON HONDA CIVIC AC PROBLEM NOT WITH INSIGHT

THE CAR WAS BOUGHT AND DELIVERED MAY 15TH, LATE AT NIGHT. EVER SINCE, THE LANE ASSIST AND WARNING ARE ON AND SAY TAKE TO DEALER. I PARKED THE CAR A MONTH THEN DROVE FROM MISS TO ORLANDO, AND PUT 1700 MILES. COGGIN OF ORLANDO DID A QUICK COMPUTER CHECK, AS THEY HAD NO AVAILABILITY TWO DAYS AGO WHEN I TOOK IT IN, AND SAID EITHER A DEFECTIVE OR DAMAGED RADAR SYSTEM. NOW HONDA REP SAYS I MUST GET A RENTAL AND PAY MYSELF AND SHE WAS VERY ABRASIVE. THE SERVICE REPAIR PERSON SAID HE WILL RUN THROUGH UP TO 10 POSSIBLE PROBLEMS TO DIAGNOSE WHAT EXACTLY IS WRONG, AND BECAUSE HE RESET IT BUT IT POPPED BACK ON, SOMETHING IS FOR SURE WRONG. NOW I AM AFRAID I WILL BE ON THE HOOK AND PLAN TO TAKE IT IN TOMORROW MORNING.... OTHERWISE THE CAR SEEMS FINE WE JUST CANT USE ANY OF THE WARNINGS . THE BACKUP AND SIDE CAMERA WORK. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AND SOMETIMES ON CITY DRIVE, I NOTICED A SOUND AND A BRAKE FLASH ON OUR DASHBOARD. SURPRISING BECAUSE I AM NOT STEPPING ON MY BREAK. I LET MY WIFE ALSO DRIVE THE CAR AND THE SAME OBSERVATION WAS NOTICED. I CANNOT TAKE A PICTURE OF IT BECAUSE I AM DRIVING. SUCH OBSERVATION WERE NOTICED OCCASIONALLY BUT WHAT IF WE END UP ON A FULL STOP WHILE ON A FREEWAY? THAT'S THE WORRISOME PART. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HONDA INSIGHT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SENSOR ACTIVATED WHICH CAUSED THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM TO ABRUPTLY STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO POHANKA HONDA LOCATED AT 1772 RITCHIE STATION CT, CAPITAL HEIGHTS, MD (301) 899-7800, HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. JUNE 13, 2020: CAR WAS TAKEN IN FOR MAINTENANCE (26,295 MILEAGE IN) AT DEALERSHIP FOR 5 DAYS. SCHEDULED B MAINTENANCE AND FUEL PUMP MOTOR SAFETY RECALL PERFORMED. DIAGNOSTIC WAS ALSO DONE AT THE REQUEST OF CONTACT (CAR OWNER) FOR THE 3RD TIME AND DURING THIS TIME, DEALERSHIP CALLED MANUFACTURER (HONDA) AND THEY STATED "BRAKING FEELING UNCOMFORTABLE BECAUSE IT'S HYBRID WHEN THE SPEED IS IN USE IT RECHARGES BATTERY IT MAY FEEL DIFFERENTLY WHEN SLOWING DOWN BECAUSE OF THE HYBRID SYSTEM." CAR STILL ACTIVATES ACC AND AUTOMATIC BRAKING WHEN DRIVING JULY 3-6 ROAD TRIP THE LKAS+ ACC SYSTEM WAS TURNED OFF TO AVOID FORCED BRAKING AND OTHER SAFETY FEATURES. DEALERSHIP SERVICE MANAGER NOTED TAKING THIS SYSTEM OFF WOULD NOT STOP THE FORCED BRAKING BUT SO FAR IT HAS NOT OCCURRED. HONDA CONCLUSION IS NOT SATISFACTORY AND MORE INVESTIGATION NEEDS TO BE DONE.*DT*JB

ON JUNE 3, 2019, I BROUGHT THE CAR TO HONDA OF ILLINOIS (2500 PRAIRIE CROSSING DR, SPRINGFIELD (217-547-0750) FOR MAJOR SAFETY REGARDING MALFUNCTIONING DRIVING ASSISTING PROBLEMS AND CONFLICTING SIGNALS. AFTER DIAGNOSTICS, THE DEALER TECHNICIANS REPORTED CODES U128D, U1291, U1281, ETC. FOR SOLUTION, THEY RESET THE CODE AND TOLD ME THAT THEY CANNOT DEFINITELY FIX THOSE SAFETY ISSUES. THEY ADVISED ME TO COME BACK WHEN THE SAFETY ISSUES ARE BACK. ON JANUARY 15, 2020, I WENT BACK TO HONDA OF ILLINOIS FOR THE SAME SAFETY ISSUES THAT BECAME WORST. AT THIS TIME, THE TECHNICIANS WERE UNABLE TO EVEN PROVIDE A TEMPORARY FIX FOR THE CAR. I HAD TO GO TO ANOTHER DEALER FOR SOLUTION (BOB BRADY HONDA AT 4025 EAST BOYD ROAD, DECATUR, ILLINOIS 62521 (217 876-3800)). SIMILARLY TO HONDA OF ILLINOIS, BOB BRADY HONDA CONFIRMED THAT THEY DON'T HAVE A PERMANENT FIX FOR THOSE SAFETY ISSUES. IN ADDITION, THEY HAVE NOT PROVIDED SUMMARY OF WORK COMPLETED. BOTH DEALERS ARE ACTING NEGLIGENTLY FOR ALLOWING A CAR WITH SOME MANY SAFETY ISSUES TO BE DRIVEN ON THE ROADS. I CALLED AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR (800-999-1009) IN MULTIPLE OCCASIONS TO REPORT ALL THE SAFETY ISSUES AND CONCERNS FOR FATAL CRASHES. AMERICAN HONDA REFUSED TO PROVIDE RELIEF AND SOLUTION TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY ISSUES. THEY ONLY REFERRED TO BOTH LOCAL DEALERS. THEY BOTH CONFIRMED THAT THEY CANNOT FIX THE ISSUES. CLEARLY, ROAD AND VEHICLE SAFETY IS NOT PART OF HONDA'S GOALS. IN SUMMARY, MY 2019 HONDA INSIGHT HAS MAJOR SAFETY ISSUES AND IS SENDING MALFUNCTIONING AND CONFLICTING DRIVING ASSISTING SIGNALS, LANE WATCH, TURN SIGNALS, ETC. I AM REQUESTING NTHSA TO GATHER AND INVESTIGATE THE PROVIDED INFORMATION FOR A FAIR AND EXPEDITIOUS RESOLUTION OF MY CLAIM. FOR RESOLUTION, I REQUEST A CAR REPLACEMENT OR A REFUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 HONDA INSIGHT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE REGISTERED OBJECTS CLOSER THAN WHAT THEY WERE AND ENGAGED THE BRAKE ERRONEOUSLY. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT NOTICED A BURNING ELECTRICAL ODOR SOMETIMES INSIDE THE VEHICLE. FURTHERMORE, THE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO WOULD SHUT OFF AND THE FUEL GAUGE DISPLAYED 40.5 MILES LESS THAN WHAT IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE PER GALLON. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PATTY PECK HONDA (555 SUNNYBROOK RD, RIDGELAND, MS 39157, (601) 957-3400), BOB BOYTE HONDA (2188 MS-18, BRANDON, MS 39042, (601) 591-5000), AND CARL HOGAN HONDA (3621 US-45, COLUMBUS, MS 39705, (662) 328-8236) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT NO FAILURES WERE FOUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09717216. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,236.

WAS IN A CAR ACCIDENT COSTING $7,000 IDAMAGE AND THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY. HIT MY HEAD ON DRIVER DOOR WINDOW. DEALER SAID THEY REPLACED THE SRS HARNESS. THE STRUCTURE WAS DAMAGED SO THE AIRBAGS SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED.
