I purchased my 2015 Honda cross tour (new) as hold over. My car has 40,000 miles on it, I have serviced my vehicle faithfully. I brought my vehicle in for oil change and tire rotation and was told my tires are completely worn down. This is my second set of tires. The first set was completely worn down by 20,000, I was then told it was because they were factory tires. I purchased very good tires and was told again they are completely worn down. This is wrong.

Recently, twice while parked at a standstill my car has displayed the 'FCW System Failed' message. It seems as if it has disabled the FCW, LDW and ABS system. It clears sometimes when the car is turned off and then back on. But the initial cause of the issue is currently eluding the auto shop as its hard to reproduce.

I noticed paint peeling several years ago. It has progressively gotten worse. It is peeling in more places than can easily be repaired. A quick internet search indicates there is a class action lawsuit for this very problem. My vehicle is the affected white color. This significantly reduces the value of my low mileage vehicle.

08/04/2020 39,000 mi ODI #11343213.0

April 24th I noticed the paint bubbling up on the roof of the car. Contacted the dealership about the problems and they agreed to paint the affected area under a " in good faith " where they paid 70% and we paid 30%. A month or so after the car was returned I found a whole sheet of paint coming off the hatchback. Again they agreed to a in good faith repair. I just was notified that the issues were extended to other areas. At this time the bill is $1700 this time and $600 for the previous time. The whole car is still not going to be completely painted. This is the same paint was on other Honda models which were given a extended paint warranty. It is a white pearl. My feeling is that this was the last year that this model was produced and that is why the extended warranty was not given to ou

When pressing the throttle during low speeds, the car hesitates with no change to RPM and no response from the engine to produce power to increase vehicle speed. In order to overcome the hesitation, I have to fully disengage my right foot from the throttle and press the throttle again in order for the engine to respond to my command and provide power. This solution does not always rectify the problem to where sometimes I just wait for the car to pick up on my command to increase speed. This occurs multiple times a day since I purchased the car new in november of 2015. This fault introduce a safety condition while driving. One example: 1) at stop lights when given the green light, the car responds normal and produces power, but seconds later the vehicle power is non-exist (as descri

brakes 1 complaint shown

07/27/2024 ODI #11604921.0

I was coming to a stop at a curb and was braking to reduce speed and stop. With my foot in the brake the car began accelerating and lunged forward. I quickly pulled my foot off the brake and pressed the brake again and this time it stopped. This is the second time this has happened in this car. This behavior is extremely unsafe and makes me reluctant to drive the car again. Had someone or something been in my direct path I would have certainly hit it. I have not been able to reproduce the issue and it has not been inspected by a mechanic at this point. There were no warning lights, sensors, or sounds.
