2023 HONDA CR-V Forward Collision Avoidance Warnings Problems

I was driving on Octuber 8th 2025. At 50 mph and the car made a sudden hard brake stop, and the brake orage light came on, the light that only turns on when it detect a car or something in front of the vehicle, the thing is nothing was in front of the vehicle, I am lucky that I didn't have cars behind me if not it would have cause a read end accident. This is very dangerous and I am super scared to drive the car now.

The millimeter wave radar has failed. While using adaptive cruise control the vehicle set off many alarms without prior warning. The vehicle suddenly showed that adaptive cruise control, lane keeping, road departure mitigation, frontal collision, low speed parking were no longer functioning and to see a dealer. I was not using frontal collision no road departure mitigation as these features had twice before unexpectedly applied heavy breaking without warning with no obstructions near vehicle. Fortunately no accident occurred but very unnerving to say the least. The dealer has confirmed that the millimeter wave radar has failed and will need replaced. Honda sensing is not very reliable and should be used with caution if used at all

While driving my vehicle in snowy conditions, my vehicle slammed on the brakes and sensed a collision. The sensors were covered with snow, and typically, the sensors will turn off when they are obstructed. At the time I was going 30-35 MPH in 1-2 inches of snow and my vehicle detected a possible collision and auto-braked, bringing me to an immediate stop. Should there have been a vehicle immediately behind me, I would have been rear-ended and the vehicle behind me would not have had time to react due to the snow conditions. I cannot stress how dangerous this is while driving in adverse conditions with other vehicles around you to have your vehicle come to an immediate stop. This continued to happen 4 more times at while driving at lower speeds, during turns, driving in parking lots. Each time the system will state something related to forward collision avoidance...

While driving (no other vehicles present) it will display warning on dash. It will slam on brakes and swerve outside of lane. This causes the vehicle go off road or in another lane. The warnings will then disappear. It also advises to see dealership. It has been to the dealerships within first two weeks of purchase. They have not been able fix issues.

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? - The adaptive cruise control and emergency braking. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? - The system is reading that other cars on my passenger side usually or coming on or off the exit ramps on the interstate as cars in front of me. In turn the system directs the car to slow down and then at some points break hard while driving at highway speeds. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? - The technician at the Honda dealer told me just to turn it off as its better to have it off than on. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? - There has not been an accident as of current that...

While driving in cruise control on two lane roads, vehicle will brake hard during curves and going up rolling hill sections even if there are no vehicles or obstructions ahead. This vehicle experienced an overheated camera system at 4500 miles and was in the shop for 3 months for repair. The above described condition occurred before complete camera failure made all safety features not function. So it could be a camera failure is beginning again, or there is an inherent defect in camera or software that powers the braking.

While driving on a two lane road with no other vehicles and no objects on the road, the "Brake" warning light came on. Thankfully, the Collision Avoidance system didn't come on this time but if the warning had activated the Collision Avoidance in traffic, a rear end crash could have happened.

On January 19, 2024 my wife was driving the CRV when it suddenly slammed on the brakes bringing the car to a full stop. The dashboard screen said Object Detected. It was a violent stop, so much so that she thought she had been rear-ended. Luckily, she was not going very fast and the car behind her was able to stop without hitting her. If it had happened at a higher speed on a busier road she and others could have been injured or killed in a crash. She called me crying and upset and could not get off the road because the problem repeated four or five more times. We had the dealership come pick up the car and they found code "P2583-54" for the radar system aiming incomplete stored in the car. They performed a static and dynamic re-aiming of the radar and said it was ok. We...

All warning lights on the auto’s dash will spontaneously light up and start alarming while I’m driving. This has been happening since I bought the car, I have brought it into the dealer and written the dealer multiple times about this. It seems to be worse in the summer when the air conditioning is running and has also happened occasionally in the winter with the heat running but much less frequently. The Honda service center is not able to identify the problem. It is very distracting and dangerous when this happens on the highway.

While driving on a clear day on a relatively flat straight road the CMBS activated and applied the brakes abruptly. There we no objects in the road when the brake light appeared and the car abruptly applied the brakes. There were no apparent conditions that would warrant this action. This issue has only occurred once and the dealer has not yet inspected the car since this incident.

Vehicle began hard braking using the collision avoidance system when there were no other vehicles or obstacles on the road. Then the vehicle safety systems (adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, collision mitigation braking system and road departure mitigation system and brake system) all began displaying warning messages. The car only has 1600 miles. The dealer inspected and states that the safety systems are not functioning because the camera failed. A replacement part will not be available for six weeks and the dealer indicated the vehicle was safe to drive with the error messages, but that in an accident none of the safety features would function. The dealer is unable to provide a reason for the failure, but suggested it could be due to heat. The dealer indicated there was the same vehicle type that experienced the same failure a few days earlier.

On highway this Honda CR-V was hit by another vehicle 2013 doge at right rear side. Other car was sliding on the road , crossing the lanes and hitting the CR-V. Side airbags were deployed immediately during primary collision. CR-V didn’t stop after that. It turned left from right most lane and hit the median heavily. Lane keeping assistance, frontal collision system, automatic emergency braking did not work properly. It hit the median and all front airbags were deployed. Honda should improve the safety features when it was hit by other car in rear, Honda CR-V should not twist and turn left & make secondary collision.
