| Description of the problem | T. P. M. S. - light comes on regularly, without tires being at incorrect pressures. Random occurrences sometimes tires are low, sometimes they are perfectly set. This is a "safety issue" and concerns me, as this could cause a wreck. The tire pressue monitoring system is faulty, honda repair facilities have been unable to correct the issue. I have repeatedly taken it to two (2) honda dealerships' service departments - one in brunswick, georgia (nalley honda), and the other was in loves park, illinois (napleton honda). Technicians and service managers in both places have stated that honda "does not have a fix for the issue". I have advised american division of honda's corporate office in california concerning this issue. This is an ongoing problem, wherein honda still does not have a fix for the problem. Their tpms system on the 2016 honda hr-v is unsafe, unreliable and will lead to crashes. Thus far, i have been told to simply "perform a reset" if the dashboard light irritates me... |
