| Description of the problem | I was going about 25 miles per hour at about 6:00 pm on 10/21/2019 in my 2018 honda crv exl in pittsburgh, pa. When the car's automatic braking system kicked in and slammed on my breaks abruptly for absolutely no reason at all. It was a very clear day, no rain, very well paved, maintained, and marked 2 lane city street. There were absolutely no cars in front of me or coming in the other direction. This came out of no where and i was shocked and confused as to why this happened. I own 3 crvs!!! I have always loved hondas and now i'm fearful of them. I'm afraid to let my teenage daughter drive it. Thank god i was only going 25 miles per hour and no one was behind me ! Please honda! This is real!!!! This is dangerous!! Fix this problem!!! Our lives depend on it! |
