Adaptive cruise control works well most of the time. Occasionally, it ignores stopped traffic and closes to a dangerous distance. It then slams on the brakes and all warning lights go on. The sensors are defective. On two lane roads, the sensors detect oncoming traffic and flash the brake warning light. When on cruise, the sensors detect cars making a left turn when passed on the right, and apply the brakes. The same thing happens when on a freeway in the middle lane passing a car on the right. The false warnings have happened since I purchased the vehicle. It's been to the dealership numerous times. They can't fix it. The cruise problems were discovered on a trip to Florida from January to March 2021.
The contact owns a 2020 Honda Passport. The contact stated that the front radar system and the collision avoidance system was sensing other objects and abruptly slowing the vehicle down almost to a complete stop. The contact turned off the feature so it would not engage in error like before. The contact was able to override when applying the brakes. The contact was concerned that the even though the adaptive cruise control was not reading an object in front the vehicle, the system may speed up the vehicle possibly causing a collision. Additionally, the instrument panel displayed the incorrect vehicle speed. The vehicle was taken to Honda of downtown Chicago (1111 N. clark St, ste 2, Chicago, il 60610, (312) 766-1095) and a software update was performed for the instrument panel to show the correct speed. It was also suggested that the front of the vehicle be cleaned and wiped off at all times for correct readings of any object in front of the vehicle. The manufacturer stated that the system could be reading bumps in the road, curves in the road and rain that could cause inaccurate readings. The issue was escalated to a case manager. The failure mileage was 7,600.
Vehicle braking heavily and unexpectedly on highway and interstate due to defective Honda sensing group input data (radar, camera, on-board software creating dangerous situation) at high speeds (60-70mph).
