2020 HONDA PASSPORT TOURING. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO DEFECTIVE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM. THE CONSUMER STATED THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM DID NOT PERFORM ANY ACTION TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE. THE DASH ONLY DISPLAYED "BRAKE" ON THE SCREEN WITH A WARNING SOUND. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL WORKS WELL MOST OF THE TIME. OCCASIONALLY, IT IGNORES STOPPED TRAFFIC AND CLOSES TO A DANGEROUS DISTANCE. IT THEN SLAMS ON THE BRAKES AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS GO ON. THE SENSORS ARE DEFECTIVE. ON TWO LANE ROADS, THE SENSORS DETECT ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND FLASH THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT. WHEN ON CRUISE, THE SENSORS DETECT CARS MAKING A LEFT TURN WHEN PASSED ON THE RIGHT, AND APPLY THE BRAKES. THE SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN ON A FREEWAY IN THE MIDDLE LANE PASSING A CAR ON THE RIGHT. THE FALSE WARNINGS HAVE HAPPENED SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES. THEY CAN'T FIX IT. THE CRUISE PROBLEMS WERE DISCOVERED ON A TRIP TO FLORIDA FROM JANUARY TO MARCH 2021.
