Stiff brake pedal when trying to start the vehicle, happens intermittently. Purchased 6-4-25, repeatedly complained to DARCARS of Bowie soon after the purchase of the vehicle. The issue is still happening to this present day. Each time the issue was raised, the situation was completely ignored. No inspection was performed before the purchase of this vehicle. On 6-25-25 after repeated attempts to have the vehicle looked at, the vehicle was taken in for service and nothing was done, brake pedal still stiffens on and off. On 6-30-25, made one more attempt to have the vehicle looked at. Vehicle is currently in the shop.
New 3 Month old vehicle with less than 5000 miles without warning had full failure of Brake Pedal Simulator Control Unit while on road. Immediately lost use of brakes and parking brake. Luckily driver was on a back road going uphill and was able to bring vehicle to a standstill. Honda will not provide answers regarding reason/cause for unit failure. They also cannot provide advice on how to respond if replacement Brake Pedal Simulator Control Unit was to fail in the future.
My wife was driving our 2025 Honda CRV on [XXX] when suddenly the car turned off, there were no brakes, and was unable to steer. This happened while driving - moving - She was able to stop, turned the car off, then started the car again. She parked the car in a parking garage, and called the Honda dealership in Manassas, VA. The technician told her to NOT drive the car and have it towed to their dealership - which we did the same day. The car only has 6,000 miles on it. There was a previous recall on this vehicle for steering issues - we brought it to he dealership then and was presumably was repaired. This was a very dangerous, life threatening incident. Honda is supposedly going to fix this - hopefully - but what is my recourse, and should we drive this car" Will Honda provide us with a new car that has no issues or recalls" Please advise. Thank You, [XXX] My email is - [XXX]. Phone number [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
Vehicle has under 5000 miles. On 4 separate drives, the warning light came on for the COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM. The warning message told me to go to the dealer. The second time it came on the car made a false brake (there was no car in front of me) I have taken it to the dealer twice and left it with them. The first time they could not find anything wrong and told me to come back if it happened again. The second time they said my sensors may have been dirty and that's why they came on. The third and fourth time my sensors are clean and the message still appeared. I am worried that The automatic braking system can cause an accident by breaking when it shouldn't.
Driving 40 miles per hour, steering wheel became difficult to turn right or left and car abruptly stopped 100 meters behind another vehicle. No accident no crash no police was contacted. Just want to fix the recall.

I was trying to realign my vehicle to eventually reverse in and park. As I was going forward, I braked four times (3 slamming the brakes) and the vehicle did not slow down or stop and eventually hit my neighbors wall. -I have a video, but the system only allows photos. Please contact me for video
