NHTSA Complaint #11457572 — 2019 HONDA CR-V

DEFECT - The Forward Collision Warning and Braking system erroneously activated for no apparent reasons. On March 3, 2022, I was driving on a highway at 65 miles per hour when the Forward Collision Warning and Braking system unexpectedly activated for no apparent reasons. I had reported earlier incidents of this erroneous activation to a Dean Honda service representative who attributed the cause to interference with sensors such as snow on vehicles. I want to emphasize the following conditions at the time of the March 3 erroneous activation: (1) my car was the only car on the road, no vehicles were in front, beside or behind; (2) the road was straight; (3) no overpasses, (4) no objects or structures on both sides of the road and (5) the windshield in the vicinity of the camera, and the hood and front grill in the vicinity of the radar were clean. As a result, I do not believe that the March 3 incident was attributed to sensor interference as Dean Honda claimed. On March 14, 2022, Dean Honda took possession of my vehicle for less than an hour and again claimed reflection could be the cause of the March 3 incidents. Dean Honda is located at 911 Clairton Blvd., Pittsburgh, PA 15236. Phone no. 412-552-3228.
