My Daughter left to go to school and when she got on to the road from driveway both screens on car went out. I had her come home and tried to get the dash to come on by turning car off then back on multiple times and nothing happened. Called Honda roadside assistance to get vehicle towed. Went back to vehicle to try again and the dash was working again. Called Honda roadside to update they suggested still having it taken to shop to be looked at
I turned on the car and backed out of my driveway and my infotainment and gauge cluster screens both went black. I pulled over to the side of the road because I could not see what my speed was and I couldn’t see what gear I was in. I restarted the car multiple times and it finally turned back on. I also realized later that I wouldn’t be able to turn on my headlights if it was dark outside. This is very unsafe and should be fixed. I do not believe I am the only one with this issue as I have seen many many others.
When making sharp left turn the vehicle makes a scary clicking noise.
When backing up with the auto braking on, the car will sometimes brake extremely hard when there is nothing behind me. Sometimes it almost won't let me backup at all as it keeps thinking there is something back there.
About two weeks into having my Honda prologue. I started noticing a clicking sound. Every time I took sharp sharp turns my steering wheel is not centered. I took it to the dealer, thinking that it was a wheel misalignment. They told me that the alignment was in perfect shape I the steering wheel is still not Centered. when I drive. but dealer said they found no issues.... The rear crossing warning detects a person a lot of times even when there is no person behind the vehicle, it makes a sudden stops. I have gotten whiplash because of how hard the breaking system abruptly stops.
show a "Service High Voltage System" message. The Honda Prologue we purchased in May 2024. We have left it with the dealership for the 3rd time now and problem kept coming back. As a first time EV user we are concerned of safety and ofcourse not knowing what is happening. The 2nd time around, I was told the DTC P0534 A/C Charge was low. This condition was not detected the first time this alert showed up. I was told that the A/C and Battery Sensors were in swapped position (ie wrongly swapped positions) and that this error must have happened at assembly. I have dropped off my EV at Dealership on Jan-9th and today is 31st and still haven't got any updates on it and i am without my car. No one seems to know what the issue is really and randomly suggest somethings and problem comes back again.
I purchased Honda Prologue Elite Model in May 2024. In around December, a warning sign "Service High Voltage System" message showed up. We left the EV for service twice since then and the first time the honda dealer mentioned that the A/C and Battery Sensors were in swapped positions and they fixed the issue by swapping positions and was set right. The warning came back again around two weeks later and the 2nd time around, they said the DTC P0534 A/C Charge was low and that this error must have happened at assembly. The warning disappeared for less than 2 weeks and reappeared again the 3rd time. Its about 4 weeks now since we have left it for service and when we called them couple of times, they mentioned they are waiting for the parts from Honda and dont have an ETA. Its 4 weeks and we do not have the vehicle after investing 60K. We made several calls and emails to American Honda Motor Co., Inc asking for update on the Issue and the inconvenience we are facing without having the car and the response is to wait until they can fix it. This is not expected from Honda whom we trusted and bought such an expensive car. It seems like they don'w know what the real issue is and each time we get some random response as a fix and the issue comes back. What's more concerning is that its an issue with the Electrical High Voltage system and we don't feel safe driving in it. I would have not chosen to by this EV if i knew they had these issues and not tested well enough before releasing for public. I have lost faith in Honda and 60K isn't small money Hoping the concerned office will Look into these reported issues and address this soon. Best
CV Joint/ Axle. Also, rear collision warning system. CV Joint/Axle makes a very audible clicking sound when accelerating during a turn. Rear collision warning system hard brakes whenever you reverse even when there isn't anything there. the only solution is to disable it. I brought the vehicle to the honda dealership where i purchased it from and they confirmed there's an issue but said it's "normal". they were able to reproduce it The honda dealership inspected the vehicle. The CV Joint/Axle - i didn't notice any issues until i started hearing the sound. it was initially only when making right turns, but now it's heard when making right and left turns.
Clicking noise when turning
on 03/12/204 the car dashboard indicated "high voltage service" for my third time and it did not want to take a charge, I went to the dealership they took the car for days they gave it to me on 05/12/2024, they told me they found nothing, the same day I was driving around 8 p.m. the car gave me the same problem,
Critical Safety Issue: Vehicle exhibits severe steering stability defects creating immediate safety hazards: 1. Continuous side-to-side oscillation occurs while maintaining straight-line travel, even with steering wheel held firmly in position. Vehicle "snakes" within lane without driver input, making it dangerous during lane changes and blind spot checks. 2. Lane Keeping Assist System (LKAS) malfunctions due to steering offset: - System overcompensates with excessive left steering correction - Creates dangerous oversteering situation - Had to disable LKAS for safety - Demonstrates underlying steering system defect 3. Additional steering abnormalities: - Strong rightward pull during acceleration - Excessive resistance during left turns at highway speeds - Asymmetrical handling between left/right turns - Issues persist with LKAS disabled Safety Implications: - Cannot maintain steady lane position - Constant steering corrections required - High risk during emergency maneuvers - Loss of critical LKAS safety feature - Particularly dangerous at highway speeds - Driver distraction during blind spot checks while managing unstable steering Dealer Response: - Multiple visits without resolution - Over one week in shop - Claims behavior is normal - Dismisses safety concerns Issue is consistent and reproducible across different road conditions. Problem absent in other vehicles including rental car during service period. Video documentation available. Request investigation of: - Steering system components - Suspension geometry - Alignment specifications - LKAS system integration - Power steering system This safety defect creates unacceptable risk of accidents, particularly during emergency maneuvers or when changing lanes. Issue present since delivery and remains unresolved despite multiple repair attempts.
My car has 2824 miles and the front left CV JOINT has failed according to the dealership that completed the inspection. They state they were told by GM and Honda that the car was safe to drive. I have known someone that had a CV joint fail and lost the wheel. I do not feel that this is safe and no one should be recommended to continue to use the car with a faulty wheel component. This is a huge safety risk. I was told the part would be in 2 weeks on 12/3/24 it is now 1/3/25 and the parts team has let me know it could be the end of February now before it arrives and that is just a loose estimate as there are of cars with this same issue waiting
The Automatic Emergency Braking system engages without any apparent reason leading to a very dangerous situation since the vehicle abruptly makes a hard stop. This is a real road safety issue.
Component/System Failure: The issue involves a clicking noise coming from the front of the vehicle whenever I turn the steering wheel to the left or right. Based on my observations, I suspect that the noise is coming from the axle, particularly one of the CV joints. The clicking noise is noticeable at low and moderate speeds, and it occurs consistently every time I turn the vehicle. Safety Risk: If the issue is indeed related to a malfunctioning CV joint, this could potentially pose a significant safety risk. If the CV joint were to fracture or break while driving, it could result in a loss of control of the vehicle, leading to an accident. While the noise itself is not an immediate hazard, the possibility of a sudden failure of the axle or CV joint is concerning, as it could impair my ability to control the vehicle and could potentially cause a serious crash. Reproduction/Confirmation by Dealer or Service Center: The problem has not yet been inspected by a dealer or independent service center. However, the clicking noise can be reproduced consistently every time I turn the car, whether turning left or right. Given the regularity of the noise, I believe this issue is likely to continue and should be addressed. Inspection by Manufacturer, Police, Insurance, or Others: At this time, the issue has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives. Since the noise has only recently started and has been persistent, I have not yet taken the car to the dealership for an inspection, but I intend to do so soon. Warning Lamps or Messages: There have been no warning lamps, messages, or alerts shown on the dashboard related to this issue. The vehicle continues to function normally aside from the clicking noise when turning. No other symptoms or mechanical issues have been noticed. When It First Appeared: The clicking noise first appeared around 1000 miles ago. As of now, the vehicle has accumulated approximately 5000 miles.
Immediately after taking ownership of my 2024 Honda Prologue, I noticed the vehicle makes a knocking sound when accelerating through sharp turns. I notice it everyday when leaving my driveway. I've done research on this issue and found that many Prologue owners in private forums have experienced similar issues and it was diagnosed as faulty axles.
The Honda link app frequently does not connect to my iPhone to remotely unlock my car. If I am locked out with the keys inside I would not safely get into the vehicle. I hope Honda will fix this issue. The HondaLink app is basically terrible and I give up with the connection after several attempts.
Car has only 4,000 miles and the CV axels make a grinding noise when turning. Also the emergency braking will randomly go off when reversing the car.
Honda Prologue with less than 5000 miles has begun experiencing a clicking sound when accelerating from a stop while turning left or right. Issue is consistent and reproducible. No warning lamps. Dealer confirms this is a bad CV axel that needs to be replaced. Parts are on back order from the manufacturer for at least three months. This is a known issue with 2024 Honda Prologue models. An internet search for “Honda Prologue clicking sound while turning” brings up dozens of results with several hundred people exposing the same issue. r/Hondaprologue on Reddit, The Official Honda Prologue Page on Facebook, [XXX] Internet forum, and several others all report the same issue with the same responses from dealers. It’s been mixed whether or not it’s safe to drive on but typically a bad CV axel requires an immediate repair to ensure safety, as the component could fail at excessive speeds on the freeway.

The tire axles are defective, brand new vehicle makes a clicking noise when Turing left or right. Vehicle has been in shop for 4 weeks waiting for axle replacement on both sides.
There is a problem with all Prologues with the CV axels. Mine has had an issue for awhile and I brought it too a Honda dealership and they said no fix for it. Anyone that has had it replaced is still having the same issue.
Knocking sound in the front when turning Honda states normal axel problem. For Fuel/battery . Been in a back and forth with Honda service/Honda motors because I’m getting less then advertised on my range performance. Example I drove a 60 mile drive and car drained 109z that’s 49 miles unaccounted for. I am now being told by Honda Motors mediation that the battery loses 30/40 percent efficiency in cold weather. That’s horrible. It’s not advertised and it’s unacceptable. It’s unsafe that customers can’t depend on the vehicle when an emergency happens.
The contact owns a 2024 Honda Prologue. The contact stated that there was an abnormal clicking sound coming from the front end while making a left or right turn. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who informed the contact that the parts were on back order. The vehicle was diagnosed, and it was determined that the axle on one side of the vehicle needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The axle was ordered for the other axle replacement. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The contact stated that the sound persisted on both sides of the vehicle. The axles were replaced, but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was contacted, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 1,000.
Beginning at 9000 miles, clicking began when taking right and left turns. I have had 8 axle replacements and still the issue is not repaired.
Took delivery of vehicle 11/19/24. Had the vehicle 10 days. Let another vehicle out of the driveway & upon pulling back in got "brake system failure" alert and the car would not stop rolling not matter how hard I hit the brake. I had to push the brake button. The "one pedal driving unavailable" alert also came on. Towed to dealership same day(11/29/24). They tell me it's a software update, but their system won't connect to the car because they need a software update. Finally get the vehicle back on 12/11/24. FOUR DAYS LATER & the same problem again. Brake system failure, one pedal driving & service stabilitrak alerts come on while going to leave my house. Towed again the next morning(12/16/24). Brake booster ordered 12/17 with no ETA. 2 days go by with no communication from them. I ask what's up. Still no ETA. I mention lawyer on Monday the 22nd & wow my part is there on Tuesday! Tells me car will be fixed by 12/27. That day comes only for them to tell me their system isn't working again to program the car. I file a case with Honda. I hear nothing from the dealership again until 1/8/25. I filed lemon law on 1/7. I hear nothing from service again until 1/13 just more excuses & about engineers coming to look at the car and ordering a new module. Get another message from them today that the car can be picked up(1/17/25). I cannot wait to get rid of this vehicle. I do not feel safe driving it anymore especially with 2 children. Luckily I was not on a highway or far from home when these brake failures occurred.
The EV battery would not charge. There were 2 messages, but nothing to indicate the issue, except that it was unable to charge. Took it into a dealer for service who stated that the freon was low. Without freon, the battery won't charge due to possible overheating. This was a brand new car - owned 2 days. They refilled the freon and charged the car. They could not find any leaks.
When backing up rear park assist slams on brakes with no person or vehicle in sight. Incident #2 While driving on the highway all screens including radio and instruments went out leaving no access to range or speed. Had to take to Honda dealer for factory reset. Incident #3 Axels are clicking and shop states are broke and on back order. Vehicle had less than 8k miles on it when issue started.
When the car is first started especially on cold days when turning right there is a series of 5 clicks that are known in our Honda group to be coming from the CV Joint. It has been known yet the dealerships are keeping our cars for months waiting on parts so it is keeping a lot of us from taking them in.
Service High Voltage Error came on and no heat was emitting from the HVAC. This is a valve malfunction that cannot be replaced in any timely manner and renders the car undriveable.
REVERSE LIGHT DON’T LIGHT UP ENOUGH TO SEE BEHIND YOU. EVEN IN THE BACKUP CAMERA YOU CANT SEE, TO DARK. THIS COULD CAUSE HITTING AN OBJECT OR PERSON CAUSING HARH.
The vehicle makes a knocking sound while making left and right turns. Car has been at the dealer for this issue twice started at 4000 miles. They finally ordered the CV axles, however the parts are on back order due to global supply issue. Dealer stated Estimated ETA 60 days.
When turning the wheel hard left or right there is a popping or clicking sound coming from the front end of the vehicle. The vehicle has been inspected by the dealer, Terry were able to relegate the issue and confirmed a know issue with the front axel. A replacement has been ordered however the party is on backorder with no resolution date. There are no other symptoms or warning lights. This is a safety issue because I don't know if this will lead to complete failure of the axel and lead to a crash.
Vehicle abbrupted stops when driving with the front collision on. I drive up the same hill everyday and when slightly turning left along a curve going up hill, and if there is a parked car present on the right side of the road, the car will abruptedly stop. If I slow down to less than 20 mph, the car won't stop, but doesn't seem like it should happen at normal driving speeds.
The car reduced speed, shut down heat and an error code for high voltage issue appeared. The car was in the shop for 3.5 weeks while Honda misdiagnosed issue then repaired cooling issue on battery
weak CV joint in the front axel produces a click-noise during front turns. inspected @ manufacturer dealership, parts are on back order. Apparently this is a known issue. Additionally, the HVAC system required valves to be replaced on a new car (>3000 miles)
When turning the wheel there is Clicking sounds. Something is definitely wrong with this car.
When driving vehicle and making left or right turns clicking and knocking noises can be heard and felt. It is consistent with both wide and tight turns. Not intermittent. No outside factors causing noises. Concern was validated by finding Honda forums detailing other owners having the same issue. Some owners have had axle and cv joint engineering problems stated to be the case by Honda and have had replacement parts installed when they can be acquired in a timely manner. Others like myself cannot get a dealership to recognize the issue upon inspection so no action can be taken. There are no warning lights or messages displayed. Honda states publicly that this is not a safety hazard but it could result in sudden failure of those parts which would prove to be a dangerous safety hazard. Vehicle would be made available for inspection upon request. Only Honda has inspected for this issue at this time. No independent repair shop, insurance or law enforcement.
When accelerating while turning right or left from a stop, there is a loud knocking sound from both sides in the front suspension. The sound is more severe with harder acceleration.
cuando obtuve el vehiculo a los 5 meses comenso con un golpeteo al girar el volante lo lleve al consecionario y me dijeron que tenia que cambiarle una pieza pero que no la tenian que tocaba esperar un tiempo. pregunte si no habia ningun problema y me dijeron que no que podia seguir conduciendo asi el vehiculo. yo lo lleve en el mes de enero y hasta el mes de abril me llamaron para decirme que la pieza habia llegado. esto me puso en riesgo porque ese golpe cada vez es mas fuerte. alguien externo me dijo que eso era muy peligroso andar asi porque me puedo quedar sin direccion en cualquier momento. el vehiculo nunca me dio una luz de advertencia.mi segungo problema es que cuando voy conduciendo el vehiculo frena bruscamente como si detectara algo en la carretera este es muy sensible y me parese peligroso porque si esto me lo hace en una via de alta velocidad puede causar un accidente, lo mismo pasa cuando doy reversa. este problema no lo he puesto en conocimiento de nadie
CV Axles are making a loud clicking noise while turning the steering wheel to the left or right. It has progressively gotten worse as time passes.
I cannot back out of my garage or down my 20 foot driveway without the car emergency braking 2-3 times. There is nothing behind me. This happens every time. I had to disable the following features. - Park Assist with Braking - Rear Cross Traffic Braking
This is an EV by Honda and the system did a reboot while driving on highway at 60mph. All electronic shut down and I was able to pull off onto the shoulder. The car rebooted and drove fine as I was 3 hours from home.
I have a clunking sound during either left or right turns. Sound started around 5,500 miles on the odometer and has become increasingly more pronounced and frequent. If these parts fail while negotiating a turn the chance of an accident and possible injury is high. Dealership service department can reproduce the issue and confirmed the CV joints should be replaced. Dealership informed me parts are back ordered with no timeframe for when they may become available.
Car makes clicking/creaking sound when performing a left or right turn from a full stop. Noticed this issue around 4500 miles. Other reports indicate CV joint issue and that the part is out of order.
A few months after I purchased the car in July, I started hearing a clicking noise when turning from a full stop. In December I was told it was axel issue. It’s not yet been resolved. I’m still driving the car.
Clicking in the area of the CV axles began to occur when making turns after a few thousand miles and has progressively gotten worse over time. Dealer eventually confirmed and ordered the part but it is on back order indefinitely.
All ADAS systems have to be turned off. Even if switched to alert only the vehicle will randomly break very hard while driving. Also will randomly not allow you to back out of your garage. Or when raining will not allow you back up.

Vehicle makes clicking noise went to dealer many times no answer till they decide to change front right axe noise went down 70% but the noise is coming back up 2 weeks after repair. Is a new car. My spouse bought another same brand and model is is starting to do the same. Noise is louder and louder. When turning any direction, worse when turning and applying brakes.
The collision system is too sensitive. Regularly when I’m backing into a parking spot the car will slam on the breaks even though there aren’t any objects in the way. This will also happen on occasion while driving forward normally potentially causing someone behind me to rear end the car
When turning the steering wheel when accelerating there is a popping noise in the front of the vehicle.
