Consumer Description
My 2016 has been experiencing audio issues for the past few months. There is a loud static noise that comes through my speakers at random times. When this happens, there is no way to control the audio unless I pull the car over and let the care sit for at least 30 minutes. The static will randomly increase and decrease on its own when this happens. I have tried to control this by just keeping the audio system turned off, but have recently found that doesn't help. The static will still occur randomly and not shut off. This is very dangerous when trying to drive and you can't control your audio system. The static noise can get pretty loud which has now caused me to stop driving my Honda. (which is awful) My car is still in very good shape and now just sitting while I try to find a replacement audio unit which will will cost roughly about $1000 to repair. This appears to be a common Honda issue as I have read so many similar reviews online. I'm hoping Honda will do what's right and put a recall out to help it's customers with resolving what now appears to be a common issue caused by the original factory setting. Overall, this has been very frustrating for myself as I only have one vehicle and hoping that Honda will do something to help it's customers.
