2019 Honda CR-V. consumer writes in regards to unintended braking. The consumer stated the vehicle abruptly braked due to a shadow from a tree. The consumer turned the system off.
The automatic vehicle braking system applied urgent brakes on its own when no other car was in front, nor was any other obstacle in front of our car. This is a huge concern because, the system applying automatic brakes could have resulted in a collision.
Collision mitigation system automatically braked when there was nothing in front of the vehicle. Vehicle was being driven at approximately 25 mph on a city street when suddenly the brakes came on and the vehicle came to a sudden stop.
I was stopped in cambridge in front of the mos pending a red light change and despite having the brake fully compressed the car moved forward slowly approx 3-6 feet into the car in front of it. There were no lights or warning. I had no control over the car. The car had less then 100 miles on it and there was no prior indication that anything was wrong.
On Saturday, February 16, 2019 while driving on a clear afternoon, we went onto the entry ramp for the highway to rt 95 S. the ramp was not straight and had curves. When an attempt was made to apply the brakes to slow for the first curve, they did not respond as they should, they pulsed and locked. At the same time, the digital dash began displaying multiple warnings of systems not functioning including brake, emergency brake, transmission, power steering, tire pressure, lane assist, cruise control, hill assist, , etc. With difficulty we were able to pull onto the grass shoulder of the highway, there was not a breakdown lane in view. We tried shutting the car off and restarting, and the warnings persisted. I contacted Honda assistance and they sent a tow truck. The tow driver stated he had difficulty loading the car because of the brakes being locked. At the Honda dealership, they also could not release the brakes to off load the car.
