I CONTACTED HONDA TO REPORT THE ISSUE. HONDA SAID IF THE DEALER CAN'T FIND ANYTHING THEN THERE IS NOTHING TO DO. THIS BOTHERED ME. I DECIDED TO CONTACT NHTSA. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. WHAT DO YOU ADVISE ME TO DO?

Additional Notes:

THE VEHICLE DOWN SHIFTS TO A LOWER SPEED DURING TRAVEL. IT OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING 45 MILES/HR, AT 70 MILES/HR AND WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON CRUISE. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I THOUGHT THE TRANSMISSION BROKE. IT WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRAFFIC. A COUPLE OF MESSAGES POPPED ON THE DASH, 'TRANSMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM' AND 'BLIND SPOT INFO. SYSTEM PROBLEM'. I PUSHED THE REVERSE BUTTON IT WAS INACTIVE, NEUTRAL WAS WORKING. TOOK THE CAR INTO A PARKING LOT AND CALLED THE DEALER. DEALER ASKED IF I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND ON. I DID THAT AND THE ISSUE WENT AWAY. A 1000 MILES LATER THE ISSUE OCCURRED AGAIN TWICE WITH IN 12 HOURS WITH A NEW MESSAGE ON TOP THE TWO FIRST MESSAGES. THIS TIME THE THIRD MESSAGE WAS 'EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM'. I TOOK PHOTOS THIS TIME OF THE MESSAGES. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND ON BUT THE 'EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM' MESSAGE DID NOT GO AWAY. I TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA DEALER AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING. AFTER THAT, AFTER + MILES LATER AFTER VISITING THE DEALER IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THIS TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY DRIVING 70 MILES PER HOUR. I CONTINUED DRIVING ON LOW GEAR TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY. I TURNED OFF THE ENGINE AND TURNED IT ON AGAIN THEN IT WAS OK. ANOTHER TIME MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH THE CRUISE ON AND IT DID THE SAME THING AGAIN. THAT IS A TOTAL OF 6 TIMES WITHIN 20000 MILES. IT HAPPENED AT ABOUT 10000 MILES, 15000+ MILES, 160159 MILES I TOOK THE CAR TO ANOTHER HONDA DEALER THIS TIME AND THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING.

SERVICE BRAKES

Potential Consequences:

ON DECEMBER 19, 2018, THE DAY AFTER WE HAD THE MAINTENANCE AND BRAKE FLUID REPAIRED, WE WERE DRIVING THE CAR ON A FREEWAY. SUDDENLY, THE CAR SHOOK WILDLY FOR A MOMENT AND THICK WHITE SMOKE STARTED TO ISSUE FROM THE CAR. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE ACCELERATOR DID NOT WORK, SO OUR CAR COULD ONLY REACH SPEED UP TO 25 MILES PER HOUR, MUCH SLOWER THAN THE OTHER CARS HONKING AND RACING PAST US ON THE FREEWAY. WE BARELY MADE IT TO THE NEXT EXIT, WHERE WE HAD TO PARK AT THE NEAREST GAS STATION TO CHECK WHAT WAS GOING ON. WE WERE UNDER EXTREME DANGER AND STRESS FROM THIS INCIDENT AS IT HAPPENED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND WE WERE EXTREMELY CLOSE TO COLLIDING WITH OTHER CARS. HONESTLY, NO WORDS CAN DARE TO EXPRESS THE FEAR AND DREAD OF IMMINENT DEATH WE EXPERIENCED THAT TIME. WE THOUGHT WE WERE GOING TO BE CRUSHED TO DEATH AT THAT MOMENT. AFTER A FEW MINUTES IN A NEARBY PARKING LOT, WHEN WE STARTED THE CAR AGAIN, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS GONE, AND THE ACCELERATOR STARTED WORKING NORMALLY. HOWEVER, ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM HAS SEEMED TO HAVE 'GONE AWAY' FOR NOW, WE DO NOT KNOW WHEN OR WHERE IT MAY OCCUR AGAIN. IT SCARES US THAT THE CAR SEEMS SO INNOCENTLY NORMAL AGAIN.

Potential Consequences:

AROUND LATE AUGUST OR EARLY SEPTEMBER OF 2018, WE STARTED EXPERIENCING SOME PROBLEMS WITH THE ACCELERATOR. ONE OF OUR OFFICE WORKERS HAD TWO ACCIDENTS WHILE PARKING DUE TO THE MALFUNCTION OF THE ACCELERATOR. THE ACCELERATOR SANK DOWN SUBTLY AS IF SHE WAS PRESSING AGAINST SORT OF A SPONGE WHEN SHE STEERED THE WHEEL AT A CERTAIN ANGLE. AS A RESULT, THE CAR CRASHED AGAINST THE WALL AND WE HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO REPAIR THE BUMPER. ORIGINALLY, WE THOUGHT THE PARKING ACCIDENT WAS DUE TO LACK OF DRIVING EXPERIENCE OF OUR OFFICE WORKER AND PAID THE FULL REPAIR COST OURSELVES. HOWEVER, A SENIOR EXECUTIVE AT MY COMPANY WITH 27 YEARS OF ACCIDENT-FREE DRIVING EXPERIENCES ALSO CLAIMED MULTIPLE TIMES TO HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME SPONGE-LIKE SINKING IN THE ACCELERATOR WHILE DRIVING THE CAR.

POWER TRAIN

Potential Consequences:

MY MAIN ISSUE HAS TO DO WITH DOWNSHIFTING. SINCE THESE NEW VANS HAVE NO EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL TO USE IF ALL BRAKING FAILS, I BECAME VERY CONCERNED WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE 9-SPEED REVS THE MOTOR UP GOING DOWN HILL WHILE DOWNSHIFTING. THIS IS TO SUCH A LEVEL THAT THE VEHICLE CANNOT ENGINE BRAKE ITSELF. YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HIT THE BRAKES BECAUSE IT WILL NOT SLOW ITSELF DOWN. SO, WHEN COASTING DOWN A 6% AND STEEPER GRADE WITH NO ACCEL PEDAL AT ALL.....THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT GEAR DOWN ON ITS OWN AT ALL. IT WILL FREE WHEEL. WHICH IS FINE. SO, WHEN THE ACC CRUISE IS ENGAGED WITH THE MINIMUM FOLLOW DISTANCE SET, ON A 6% OR STEEPER GRADE.....THE TRANSMISSION WILL SEQUENTIALLY DOWNSHIFT. UPON EACH DOWNSHIFT THE ENGINE THROTTLE IS BLIPPED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SPEED DOWNHILL A BIT MORE.....AND A BIT MORE. WHEN YOU GET TO THE D5 TO D4 DOWNSHIFT THE THROTTLE IS AGRESSIVELY BLIPPLED AND THE VAN WILL SPEED AHEAD AS IF TO PASS. SOMETIMES SPEEDS WILL REACH 75MPH DOWN HILL AND AGRESSIVE BRAKING IS REQUIRED BY THE DRIVER. YOU THEN LOSE YOUR PRESET ACC. . KNOWING THAT I HAVE NO EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL THAT I CAN MODULATE PRESSURE/BRAKING WITH THE RELEASE HANDLE. SO. WHEN USING STANDARD CRUISE CONTROL SET ON A 6% OR STEEPER GRADE.....THE TRANSMISSION WILL DOWNSHIFT. UPON EACH DOWNSHIFT THE ENGINE THROTTLE IS BLIPPED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SPEED DOWNHILL A BIT MORE.....AND A BIT MORE.

WHEN USING STANDARD CRUISE CONTROL SET ON A 6% OR STEEPER GRADE.....THE TRANSMISSION WILL DOWNSHIFT. UPON EACH DOWNSHIFT THE ENGINE THROTTLE IS BLIPPED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SPEED DOWNHILL A BIT MORE.....AND A BIT MORE. WHEN YOU GET TO THE D5 TO D4 DOWNSHIFT THE THROTTLE IS AGRESSIVELY BLIPPLED AND THE VAN WILL SPEED AHEAD AS IF TO PASS. SOMETIMES SPEEDS WILL REACH 75MPH DOWN HILL AND AGRESSIVE BRAKING IS REQUIRED BY THE DRIVER. YOU THEN LOSE YOUR PRESET CRUISE CONTROL. KNOWING THAT I HAVE NO EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL THAT I CAN MODULATE PRESSURE/BRAKING WITH THE RELEASE HANDLE. THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE PURCHASE.

Additional Notes:

MY MAIN ISSUE HAS TO DO WITH DOWNSHIFTING. SINCE THESE NEW VANS HAVE NO EMERGENCY BRAKE PEDAL TO USE IF ALL BRAKING FAILS, I BECAME VERY CONCERNED WHEN I NOTICED THAT THE 9-SPEED REVS THE MOTOR UP GOING DOWN HILL WHILE DOWNSHIFTING. THIS IS TO SUCH A LEVEL THAT THE VEHICLE CANNOT ENGINE BRAKE ITSELF. YOU ABSOLUTELY HAVE TO HIT THE BRAKES BECAUSE IT WILL NOT SLOW ITSELF DOWN. SO, WHEN COASTING DOWN A 6% AND STEEPER GRADE WITH NO ACCEL PEDAL AT ALL.....THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT GEAR DOWN ON ITS OWN AT ALL. IT WILL FREE WHEEL. WHICH IS FINE. SO, WHEN THE ACC CRUISE IS ENGAGED WITH THE MINIMUM FOLLOW DISTANCE SET, ON A 6% OR STEEPER GRADE.....THE TRANSMISSION WILL SEQUENTIALLY DOWNSHIFT. UPON EACH DOWNSHIFT THE ENGINE THROTTLE IS BLIPPED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SPEED DOWNHILL A BIT MORE.....AND A BIT MORE. WHEN YOU GET TO THE D5 TO D4 DOWNSHIFT THE THROTTLE IS AGRESSIVELY BLIPPLED AND THE VAN WILL SPEED AHEAD AS IF TO PASS. SOMETIMES SPEEDS WILL REACH 75MPH DOWN HILL AND AGRESSIVE BRAKING IS REQUIRED BY THE DRIVER. YOU THEN LOSE YOUR PRESET ACC. .

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

SINCE I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE THE HEADLIGHTS DIM WAY DOWN AND SOMETIMES CHANGE INTENSITY GREATLY EVERY SINGLE TIME THE A/C COMPRESSOR CLUTCH ENGAGES AND DRAWS CURRENT. ALL LIGHTING ACROSS EVERY SYSTEM IN THE VEHICLE DIMS WAY DOWN AS WELL. THAT IS, INTERIOR ILLUMINATION, INSTRUMENT CONSOLE AND PANEL, EXTERIOR MARKER LIGHTS. ALL LIGHTING DIMS WHEN THE COMPRESSOR CLUTCH ENGAGES. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP HAS TRIED A FEW THINGS AS INSTRUCTED BY THE MANUFACTURER BUT THE SITUATION HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED. WHILE OUT ON FREEWAYS AT NIGHT FOLLOWING BEHIND OTHER VEHICLES, THE DRIVER WILL BECOME ANNOYED IN FRONT THINKING THAT I AM PURPOSEFULLY FLICKERING OR FLASHING THE HEADLIGHTS TO ENCOURAGE THEM TO SPEED UP OR MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. THIS CAN CAUSE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. THIS SITUATION HAS BEEN PRESENT SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN NOVEMBER 2018 AND REMAINS.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

UPON STARTUP OF THE VEHICLE, A STRONG BURNING SMELL WAS SENSED. THE VEHICLE WAS BRIEFLY PUT INTO A SLOW REVERSE TO TAKE IT OUT OF THE GARAGE AND A VERY ROUGH IDLE STARTED, BLACK SMOKE APPEARED OUT OF THE TAIL PIPE AND EVERY POSSIBLE ERROR MESSAGE APPEARED ONE AFTER THE OTHER ON THE DASH. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN BRIEFLY PUT INTO DRIVE FOR A COUPLE INCHES FORWARD BACK INTO THE GARAGE WITH VERY LITTLE POWER ON ACCELERATION AND AN EVEN STRONGER BURNING SMELL. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND ADVISED HAVING THE CAR TOWED IN TO BE EVALUATED. UPON EVALUATION THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE ISSUE WAS A LEAKING FUEL INJECTOR CAUSED BY A FAULTY FUEL RAIL DESIGN FROM THE FACTORY. THE INJECTOR LEAK CAUSED TOO MUCH FUEL TO BE PUT INTO THE CYLINDER CAUSING THE SPARK PLUGS TO FOWL OUT. THE DEALER STATED HONDA WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE ALSO IN 2018 MODELS AND THEY ASSUMED THEY WOULD HAVE CORRECTED THE FUEL RAIL DESIGN FOR THE 2019 MODEL. THE DEALER THEN ADVISED THAT THEY COULD NOT MAKE ANY REPAIR UNTIL THE REDESIGNED FUEL RAIL WAS RELEASED A MONTH FROM NOW. THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW 2 MONTHS AGO AND CURRENTLY HAS APX 5,000 MILES. THE FACT THAT THIS WAS CAUSED BY AN ERROR IN THE FUEL RAIL DESIGN FROM THE FACTORY INDICATES THE PROBLEM LIKELY HAS BEEN CAUSING DAMAGE AND POSING A SAFETY RISK OF POSSIBLE ENGINE FIRE FROM THE LEAKING FUEL INJECTOR THE ENTIRE 5,000 MILES OF OWNERSHIP. ALSO, IT IS UNKNOWN HOW THE LEAK MAY AFFECT THE ENGINE IN THE FUTURE DUE TO THE LEAK AND DESIGN FLAW PERSISTING SINCE IT WAS SOLD NEW FROM THE FACTORY.
