This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The issue appears to involve the steering and/or front drivetrain system. When making any U-turn, particularly at low speeds with the steering wheel turned to full lock, a distinct clicking sound is heard from the front of the vehicle. The sound occurs consistently during tight turning maneuvers.Because U-turns are often performed in intersections or busy roadways, any unexpected mechanical failure could put me, my passengers, and nearby drivers or pedestrians at risk. The vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer or any other entity. No warning lamps/ messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the start of this issue.
When turning right or left during 90-degree turns or U-turns, a loud clicking noise is heard. Already had the front axle replaced during first maintenance and the problem came back within 2 months of normal driving.

Every time I make a sharp turn left from a stop position and accelerate a bit I hear this loud clicking sound coming from the front end of the vehicle. From what I can see from the research I've done this is a known issue by the manufacturer and I have already schedule a day to go to the dealer to demand a repair since my car is still under warranty. It's worth noting I have only a month with the car but I bought used with almost 16K miles.
Anytime I turn the steering wheel to the left, there is a really loud clanking noise coming from the front left tire. It gets really loud when the car is cold, and only slightly improve when the car is warmed up. I worry that there is a problem with the axle that can be a safety issue. While I am just reporting this today, it has been going on for at least 12 months.
Front axle clicking noise when turning left, most noticeable at low speeds and from a stop. Noise is repeatable and occurs consistently during left turns. Suspected front axle / CV joint defect. Concerned about potential powertrain failure and loss of drive while turning. Vehicle is a 2024 Honda Prologue.
I am reporting a recurring mechanical issue with my 2024 Honda Prologue. When turning the steering wheel at low speeds (specifically during parking maneuvers or U-turns), there is a loud, metallic clicking and popping noise coming from the front axle area. This symptom is consistent with a premature failure of the CV joints or the half-shafts. This issue is creating a safety concern regarding the structural integrity of the drivetrain while operating the vehicle.
Problem with the CV joints on the Honda Prologue, clicking noise when you turn the vehicle. Honda replaced the defective part first time this happened but now it's back again, and it's only one year since I leased the car.
The Sound: A loud clicking, clunking, or "popping" noise coming from the front wheels. When it happens: It is most noticeable when turning the steering wheel (especially sharp turns at low speeds) or accelerating from a stop. The Issue: The Constant Velocity (CV) joints in the front axles may be defective or prone to premature wear.
When I turn my Honda Prologue wheels to the right or left and accelerate (usually all the way/full turn, but not always), I will hear clicking. I understand this has been a previously reported CV Axle joint clicking issue that I am now experiencing on my car.
When turning my vehicle I hear a clicking & cracking sound in the cv joints of the car. It happens in both directions. This can be a safety issue when driving if the axial or CV joints fail. It could put myself, my family & other people on the road in danger if this happens & the joints go out or fail. NO warning lights it just happened over time. the car has only 14000 miles at the time of this complaint.
Clunking sound from front of car when turning. Dealer inspected vehicle and reported that this is a known issue related to CV joint/ axle but parts to resolve are back ordered or unavailable. Vehicle has less than 5500 miles.
Three major problems stand out: faulty CV joints/axles that produce loud clicking or knocking noises when turning, false activations of the automatic emergency braking (AEB) system, which I had to turn off, and high-voltage system failures that can disable charging or limit performance. Other concerning issues include steering malfunctions, infotainment system blackouts, USB-C not connecting, battery not charging to 300mi range, forward collision sensor false activation, and braking anomalies.
