2019 HONDA PASSPORT Complaints

Headlights have condensation. Vehicle purchased in May 2019 and in November 2022 condensation is inside headlight. Mileage is 38,000

While we were driving home from work at highway speeds with nobody in front or around us, we heard a loud pop and heard what sound like glass pelting off of the roof of the vehicle. We then look in the rear view mirror and see it flying from the car. We pull over to the side of the road and realize that our sunroof had exploded. After doing some research we found out that we were not the only ones that this has happened to.

After all the work done on my car including the key fobs I’m still having issues that the dealer said were fixed. The first image happened 10.15.22 two days after getting the keys reset on 10.13.22 (not the first time it ever happened it started in 2020 after I got a brand new 2019 Passport) and it’s happened several more times thereafter “ Keyless Remote Not Detected Press” aka my key fob is considered not remotely close to my car when in fact it’s right there. The last photo is from 10.30.22 now, this one scared me because I tried to start my car twice and nothing happened. No juice! No inside/outside car lights! No dashboard action! The 3rd attempt produced the message about placing the key to the start button and it worked. I don’t know what’s going on but this car has the worst electrical system than any car I’ve had. What am I supposed to do if the car does not start since it’s keyless and placing it by the start button doesn’t work? I’ve emailed the dealer on 10/30/22 no reply there are no recalls but we all know that can take some time just like when I had radio issues that couldn’t be recreated when I had my car serviced Honda wrote me off and no fix. Then time passed and the recall was issued and owners were given the option to select “I’m Sorry Consolation” things either refunds for repairs with proof, free XM satellite radio or HondaLink service. I’ve added 2 additional photos with my key fob in my hand yet, the car dash is basically saying it’s not close.

With less than 1,000 miles this car had to go in multiple times for a radio electrical issue, floor harness, IP harness etc replaced. Now at 60,000 I’m getting transmission failure faults where my car will stall out and not engage. HUGE safety issue. Now I’m waiting 2 weeks to get into a dealership

Incident occurred immediately after a full stop at an intersection. When I hit the gas pedal, the transmission sounded like shifting to Neutral gear, resulting in loud grinding, and with complete loss of power. Had do pull over the shoulder, place it on parking mode and then back to drive gear and continue. Now almost every time it's going to shift gears, you can hear and feel the a hard shifting gears.

The contact owns a 2019 Honda Passport. The contact stated that on several occasions while coming to a stop at a stop light, the vehicle lost motive power and the transmission shifted into neutral(N) as the crash mitigation warning light illuminated. The contact stated that she was able to restart the vehicle after turning off the vehicle. The contact shifted into park(P) and then back to drive(D). Additionally, the contact stated while driving approximately 45 MPH and depressing the brake pedal, the vehicle lost motive power and the transmission independently shifted into neutral(N). The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was then taken to a local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 47,000.

I bought the car at 49,000 miles, 7 months ago. Intermittently, when the auto engine idle stop engages, the car will not restart and leaves me stuck in traffic, trying to restart it. It normally takes a couple of minutes to get it started, leaving me vulnerable to oncoming cars.

The auto engine idle stop malfunctions on this vehicle. Instead of restarting when I move my foot to the accelerator at a stoplight, the engine shuts off and I have to shift to Park and use the push button to start the car. More than five times this has occurred. A couple of times while in the middle of an intersection yielding to oncoming traffic before turning, this has occurred.

My 2019 Honda Passport has the fuel-saving stop-start system. At least once a day while driving, my engine will not restart on its own from a complete stop at a traffic light or intersection. While I am waiting at the intersection, the engine cuts off and shifts to neutral and will not shift back to drive when I release the brake. It usually takes a couple of times to try to restart the car before it can be put into drive. This situation has been going on for approximately one year and there are no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure.

When the auto engine idle is engaged (Which is the default setting), when you stop, the engine idle works as advertised, then after a few moments the car will totally shut off and place itself in neutral. After several failed attempts, the only way to restart it, is to press and hold the start button and holding the brake pedal. This cars maintenance has been completed on time and solely by the dealership. This is a very scary issue because it can cause serious harm to the passengers in the vehicle as well as other vehicles on the road. This will most definitely cause an accident. we were in stop and go traffic on the HIGHWAY in the fast lane and the whole car shut off and as traffic began to move, my car wouldn't go there was a moment of panic as I quickly tried to get the car to start back up it took a while to get it to restart. we were fortunate there was no collision for us with this incident but my young children are now very afraid to ride in the car because it might shut off again and we could get hurt.
