| Description of the problem | I only had this vehicle for a few weeks and i was driving up a bridge when traffic came to a screetching stop. I slammed on my breaks and my hr-v did not slow down as it should have. I had a 2018 honda civic for 3 years before this and they drive in a similar way. I also have driven old, huge, heavy trucks and suvs for years. I've even driven on ice and i lived in one of the snowiest places on earth (literally) and have never had a vehicle not stop in this way... I am really concerned and i got into my first accident, ever. After having this vehicle for less than 3 weeks. |
