Consumer Description

I have experienced automatic emergency braking of my vehicle at various times for no reason ~ I was not approaching another car or in congested traffic. Fortunately, in every instance, there has not been another vehicle immediately behind me. I have communicated this problem verbally to the Honda dealer and was advised all systems appear to be functioning correctly. The most severe instance was when I was going over a metal plate placed over the roadway during street repair. At other times, it will happen when approaching one particular intersection in my city. In any event, something in the automatic braking system is flawed. Good idea but there are dangerous "bugs" that need to be worked out.
