ON OCCASION, WHILE AT HWY SPEEDS WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME MY CAR WILL SUDDENLY START BRAKING. THIS WORRIES ME THAT PEOPLE FOLLOWING TO CLOSELY MIGHT NOT BE EXPECTING MY CAR TO BRAKE AS THEIR US NO IMMEDIATE TRAFFIC IN FRONT. ALSO, THE LANE ASSIST FREQUENTLY FIGHTS ME WHEN I AM WITHIN MY LANE. IT APPEARS THAT CONCRETE SCRATCHES OR MARKS IN THE ROAD SOMETIMES CONFUSE IT.

THE FUEL PUMPS, MADE BY SUPPLIER DENSO, WERE "EXPOSED TO PRODUCTION SOLVENT DRYING FOR LONGER PERIODS OF TIME" DURING MANUFACTURING, ACCORDING TO THE NHTSA RECALL REPORT, WHICH COULD CAUSE SURFACE CRACKING AND EXCESSIVE FUEL ABSORPTION AND EVENTUALLY CAUSE THE IMPELLER TO BECOME DEFORMED AND FAIL. THE FUEL PUMPS ON VEHICLES PRODUCED OUTSIDE LIMITED DATES GIVEN ON THE REPORT DO NOT HAVE THE PROBLEM. THIS RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE THE 2018 HONDA ACCORD MODELS EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE HAVING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES. MY CAR IS STALLING THE EMISSIONS WARNING LIGHT IS ON ALONG WITH THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE, AND THE COLLISION MITIGATION. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THE PUT IN PLACE LAST YEAR BEING THAT IS IS THE SAME ISSUES. MY VEHICLE WOULD STALL IN A PARKING SPOT AT MY HOME WHEN I'M FIRST STARTING IT. IT WOULD FLASH A WARNING LIKE A CAR IS IN FRONT OF ME RANDOMLY WHEN NOTHING IS THERE. I HAVEN'T GOT INTO A WREAK BUT I FREE THAT I MAY BE IN ONE IF THIS ISSUE ISN'T FIXED AND BEING THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH PREVIOUS MODELS I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO COME OUT OF POCKET. I BROUGHT THIS CAR BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT. THERE IS NO REASON WHY I SHOULD BE CHANGING THE FUEL INJECTOR 3 YEARS LATER.

I2 WEEKS AGO I HAD MY CAR'S COMPUTER SYSTEM UPDATED AS PER THE RECALL NOTICE. EVERYTHING WAS FINE THEN 2 DAYS AGO I NOTICED ON THE HEADS UP DISPLAY "CRUISE) WHICH HAD NEVER BEEN THERE BEFORE. I SET THE SPEED AT 65 ON THE FREEWAY AND IT HELD THE SPEED FINE, HOWEVER, AS I APPROACHED ANOTHER VEHICLE FROM BEHIND IT DID NOT SLOW DOWN TO MATCH THE SPEED OF THE OTHER CAR. I HAD TO BRAKE TO AVOID HITTING IT. I TRIED USING THE INTERVAL BUTTON TO SET THE DISTANCE FROM THE OTHER VEHICLE BUT IT DID NOT WORK. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING 3/23/2021 AND AFTER 90 MINUTES THEY CALLED ME OUT TO LET ME KNOW WHAT HAPPENED. APPARENTLY, IF YOU HOLD THE INTERVAL BUTTON DOWN FOR 2-5 SECONDS IT DISENGAGES THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL AND THE CAR IS REVERTED TO AN OLDER SYSTEM THAT DOES NOT SENSE THE SPACING WHILE ON CRUISE CONTROL. I EXPLAINED TO THEM THAT I NEVER HAD TOUCHED THE INTERVAL BUTTON PRIOR TO THE CAR REVERTING TO THIS OLDER SYSTEM AND IT WENT TO IT BY ITSELF. IF I REMEMBER CORRECTLY IT WENT TO THIS SYSTEM WHILE IN MOTION BY ITSELF AND ONLY SINCE I HAD THE UPDATED SYSTEM INSTALLED DUE TO THE RECALL. IF I HADN'T BEEN PAYING ATTENTION I WOULD HAVE REAR ENDED THE CAR IN FRONTOF ME.

THE REAR PASSENGER BRAKE PAD IS WORN TO NOTHING. ALL OTHER PADS ARE FINE. I HAVE 22,000 MILES ON MY HONDA. DEALERSHIP SAID IT WAS RUSTED BECAUSE I LIVE AT THE BEACH. IF THAT IS TRUE THEN WOULD THERE NOT BE PROBLEMS WITH ALL 4. I HEARD SCRAPING SOUNDS BEFORE. THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE WARNING HAS BEEN ON. WHILE DRIVING MY CAR, THE ELECTRONIC PANEL READ I NEEDED TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY AND CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE TIRE PRESSURE WAS FINE.

AUTOMATIC SENSOR BRAKING COMES ON WHILE DRIVING, THERE ARE NO OTHER CARS AROUND OR OBJECT. WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKES COME ON AND THE WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD, THERE ARE NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME OR TO THE SIDE. THE CAR JERKS AS THE BRAKES ARE AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED, WHILE MY FOOT IS ON THE GAS PEDAL. THEN THE BRAKE IS RELEASED, THE WHOLE EVENT TAKES SECONDS. IN FACT IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN THERE HAS BEEN NO CARS IN SIGHT. IT HAS HAPPENED MOSTLY ON LOCAL ROADS GOING 45-50 MILES, BUT HAS OCCURED ON A HIGHWAY GOING AROUND 65 MPH. PURCHASED CAR IN 2018, STARTING HAPPENING IN 2019 AND CONTINUES UNTILL TODAY. WHEN I TOLD HONDA SERVICE, THEY SAID MAYBE THE SENSOR FOR THE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS DIRTY. I AM CONCERNED AN ACCIDENT WILL HAPPEN, IF THE BRAKES GO ON AND THERE IS NO CAR IN FRONT BUT A CAR IN BACK, ITS UNSAFE.
