2019 Honda Insight owner complaints

The Honda Sensing suite's CMBS uses a combination of a front-facing camera and a radar sensor, it detected a sewerage as a hole and steel plates as a hole and made a sudden unsafe stop. Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) experiencing a false positive. We were going to like 15-20 over the steel plate and it made an emergency unsafe stop. It keeps doing it over and over. At this point it’s becoming really unsafe so I wanted to report it. It stopped all of sudden and made my neck in pain as my wife’s back. No the problem has not been talked to the dealer or they never told me about this kinds of problems will happen. No any warning lamps.

I started the car on December 9th to find a bunch of errors. All the sudden I have lost my cruise control, collision prevention assist, light assist, and other features. I immediately took the car to the nearest Honda dealership near my home and got it checked out. The code showed that part #36163-TXM-A45, a camera used for these features, had failed. I was told by Jessie Loso, the repair representative, that the part will need to be replaced. The car had only 14,763 miles on it however because it was barely driven during COVID lockdowns. Now the original part was not damaged and it had failed on its own for no apparent reason. The only reason that we were given by Victory repair department is that the car was left out in the elements. This was not an appropriate excuse for this failure co

I was stopped at a stoplight and then the light turned green. I began to accelerate and immediately and simultaneously my car began flashing BRAKE, beeping, and slamming on the brakes. I came to a literal grinding halt. There was no car in front of me nor was one merging into my lane. It was completely unwarranted and quite honestly frightening. There was a car behind me but thankfully they did not hit me. The CMBS clearly malfunctioned. Because there was no collision I did not file a police report. This however did put me at a huge risk of getting rear ended. The car has not been inspected since as this is not an open recall. There were no warning signs (lamps, messages, etc) before this occured.

The digital miles-per-hour speedometer will not appear on the instrument panel in any 2019 Honda insights. It will only appear as kilometers-per-hour. A representative for Honda usa says this is their design, yet their manual clearly states it should appear in miles-per-hour. There is a needle speedometer that shows miles-per-hour, but this is often hidden from sight by the steering wheel. I think this is a safety hazard as is is difficult to know the actual speed of the vehicle.

Vehicle a/c system did not effectively cool cabin in warm weather on long drives. Last trip there were white particles coming from the vents. There is a known issue with the systems and Honda extended the warranty on a/c system due to problem condensors. Brought it to a dealer who found that the evaporator was leaking causing refrigerant to enter cabin area. Dealer quoted over $1500 to replace a part that was defective from the factory. Vehicle is out of bumper to bumper warranty and Honda has refused to cover the repairs.

Honda has been unable to address the existing recall for the fuel pump on my car. I've called multiple times between july 2020 and today (october 19th 2020). They state that the parts have not been released to the dealer, and that I should call again in a couple weeks. They are not resolving this issue in a timely manner.

While stopped at a train track, I used the Brake Hold feature and it was on when suddenly without touching peddles the car went forward and I hit the car in front of me

Acc, cmbs, rdm problem ligjts are on. It happens twice time within a year of owning the car. I brought it to the dealer after 3 days of purchased the new car (1st time) and was told that they didn't know what's exactly problem. They tried to reset the system and it worked. Then it happens again, same issue, I brought it back to the dealer and this time they wanted me to replace/reaim the sensor that on the front bumper. This time they blamed it on the missing cover. I did some research online, it's a very common issue and it should be the manufacture problem. They need to do something about it because it could lead to some serious issue.

When we took it in for the front seat, buckle recall, we informed the dealership there was an issue with the driver side rear seatbelt. At that time, we only had two kids. Now we have three children, and we are not able to buckle all our children in the backseat. Each time we take the car to the dealership for an oil change we tell him the same issue they state there is no recall and won’t look at it. . How can you help?

After previous recall 748083 was performed the seatbelt latch failed internally.
