Data synced from NHTSA on May 4, 2026
Tire pressure monitor sensor will not stay off. Car has been taken back to the dealer several times and they are unable to keep it off. Was told by the dealer service manager that "it's just a light" and that I "should be ok." Called Honda and submit a ticket for them to handle it with the dealership but the both of them are unable to get it resolved.
Self healing tires unable to be repaired by dealer with nail in main tread area. Any other tire would have been able to be patched and inflated. Tire was less than self healing.
When turning to the right from a stopped position there is clicking noise coming from the right front CV joint.
I turned my car on and the screens were on, I put it in drive and both screens went black, I pulled over and I restarted the car multiple times, nothing would come on. I had to drive one hour to work without being able to see how fast I was going, or how many miles. It was completely dark and this is a serious safety issue.
When backing out with ZERO obstacles or things in either direction the car will suddenly come to a violent stop. Had to turn off rear safety camera braking system, as it is useless and dangerous.
When turning the wheel there is Clicking sounds from the front axle, turning 90 degrees right or left. Dealer has been informed and said it sounds like an axle issue and that others have complained about this. Started almost immediately after taking delivery. Also rear camera failed after 1 hour of taking delivery.
My 2024 Honda Prologue had less than 900 miles on it when "High Voltage Warning" appeared on my dash, and warned me to take the vehicle to a service center immediately - I did, and now my Prologue has been in service for 20 days straight. (As of 1-17-25)
Vehicle Drive Shaft makes clicking noise at the CV Joint. Vehicle part is backordered due to nationwide shortage caused by vehicle defect on numerous 2024 Honda Prologues. There is no code on dashboard. Honda service has looked at vehicle and stated noise is caused by the CV joint for the drive shaft. Still says to drive due to backordered parts with no resolution. Vehicle has less than 6000 miles on it when problem arised.
CV drive shaft axels are bad from factory and make a clicking sound while driving, making sharp turns, or backing out of parking space. Honda says replacement part are on back order for over 1 month.
Front CV axles make loud clicking when making sharp turn from stop.
Sterring does not return to center when coming out of a turn. This is a MAJOR safety issue. I could be forced off the road or worse, into another vehicle or pedestrian if I am not quick to force the car to straighten out. Has not been inspected. I was informed this is a known issue by the dealer. No warning lamps
Car will stop abruptly even when simply reversing out of my garage when there are no obstacles behind me. This poses a safety risk to me and others. Car has not been inspected. I was told by the dealer this is a known complaint. No warning lights or messages.
When coming out of a corner, the steering does not return to center.
When turning, the car makes a very loud clicking noise that comes from the front wheel area. Sounds like a CV joint going bad.
When turning left or right at low speeds, I hear loud clicking noises. It is available for inspection. I'm not sure if this is a safety issue. There were no warning lamps or other messages prior to the issue. The symptom first appeared around 2500 miles on the odometer. I read on the forums that it could be related to the CV joints, so took it to my dealership and let them know. They did not document that I said CV joints, but did write down that there was a clicking noise. They kept my vehicle for three days, said they contacted Honda, replaced the axel using an axel from another new car on the lot, and the same noise was there. They said that it was not a safety issue, and that they would notify me when a fix was available.
Car makes loud knocking sound when turning, especially when cold. Started almost immediately after taking delivery. Happens every time drive car and is getting worse. Available to inspect. Safety risk if drive axle snaps. Not inspected by anyone, but a known issue in owners' forums and among dealer service departments: [XXX] No warnings or codes thrown.

I purchased this vehicle on October 22, 2024, with the expectation that it met the highest safety standards, including a dependable airbag system designed to protect occupants during collisions. However, on December 23, 2024, I was involved in a major collision where the airbags failed to deploy despite the severity of the impact. The damage to the vehicle was so extensive that it has been declared a total loss by my insurance company.
the Hatchback door opened while we were traveling on the highway without warning.
Knocking noises from CV joint when turning left.
There is clicking in what I believe are the CV axles while turning left and right. The heat does not work in the blistering cold which causes loss of visibility since the defrost won’t work. When this happens the vehicle gives a red warning light indicating “service high voltage system/battery.” I have taken it into the dealership 3 times now for the same reasons and each time they can’t diagnose the issue.
On several occasions while in reverse the car braked hard and violently for no reason. This caused a sudden jolt to me and the passengers endangering our safety. Also, this condition can cause an accident if I’m trying to back up to avoid a collision and the emergency braking system does not allow me to do such. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone else and no warning lamps messages or other symptoms of the problem appeared prior to the incidents. This condition first occurred with about 300 miles on the vehicle.
Car makes loud clicking noise while making turns. Steering doesn’t come back after making steep turns. Car dealership says they have no remedy to repair the problem.
I bought my car in mid-December and twice in the space of driving it less than 300 miles I got warning lights regarding a "high voltage" problem and to go to the dealer immediately. I did both times. The first time they said it was due to the robot installing some valves backward and also the refrigerant was low. They put me back on the road and it happened again after a few short drives. My car has been in the shop ever since. It is now Feb. 10. They now say that there is a badly designed hose that leaks refrigerant, and they are waiting for it to be redesigned and sent out and it is on national backorder. They estimate it should become available by end of February. I want this complaint logged into the system in case it happens again and because I am sure many people have this problem, having read all the complaints on the Honda Prologue forum online.
On Dec. 19 the infotainment system and the instrument panels both went blank. I was driving away from my home. I touched a button on the steering wheel that controls the content of the screen that is the main instrument panel. The heads up display failed as well. The car kept running, but I could see any information such as my speed, my battery level or any of the other usual information. I could not reboot the system by myself when I called the dealership, but they said that after I handed it over to them, that it was rebooting. I took it back home and it seems to be working normally, but nothing Planet Honda did will guarantee that this will not reoccur. Planet Honda said they have heard of this happening to others, but that it's rare. If you google this problem, you can see other Prologue owners have had this happen.. This is very upsetting and potentially dangerous to not know your speed or to be able to control the lights of the car and other items. \
Specifically, I have encountered recurring problems with the vehicle's automatic braking system, as well as issues with the Honda Prologue app, both of which I believe compromise the vehicle's safety and performance. The vehicle's automatic braking system appears to be malfunctioning, as it has activated unexpectedly on multiple occasions, leading to near-miss accidents. On at least three occasions, the vehicle’s brakes have engaged without cause, even in situations where there is no obstruction or “phantom” vehicle detected. This automatic braking has not only been inappropriate but also posed a significant safety risk to both myself and other road users. The reverse braking system exhibits similar issues, activating without cause. Despite the alerts being on and the brakes not being engaged, the system’s warning signals still activate, leading to further confusion and potential danger. I have consulted with both the dealership and the Prologue forum, and it has been confirmed that this is an ongoing issue. However, the dealership has indicated that they have no immediate workaround or solution. The only suggested viableremedy has been to disable these safety features entirely, which negates the very purpose of having them. The Honda Prologue app, which is intended to provide critical vehicle information and allow remote monitoring and control, is also malfunctioning. I have been in communication with Honda for over two months regarding these issues, but unfortunately, no solution has been provided. The app is essential for monitoring vehicle functions such as theft prevention, charging status, and temperature control, all of which are key safety and convenience features. I am concerned about my ability to monitor the vehicle’s charging, especially given the increasing number of incidents involving electric vehicles catching fire during or after charging. Proper monitoring of charging status is crucial to avoid potential over overcharging and battery degradation.
Front axels produce loud clicking and popping noises when turning sharper in both the left and right directions. This first started at 2,500 miles and seems to be getting progressively worse. Vehicle now has 3,500 miles on it. Sound is heard in both forward and reverse. Parking collision activates regularly when backing out of the garage. It aggressively stops the vehicle and will not allow it to move even though there is no obstruction. Emergency braking aggressively activated one time for an unknown reason.
Multiple times the Prologue has been in service for high voltage system and reduced acceleration errors that have come on during charging.
The contact owns a 2024 Honda Prologue. The contact stated that there was a clicking noise coming from the front axle while turning the steering wheel to the left or the right. The contact stated that the instrument panel lights were intermittently blinking. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who diagnosed the failure with the instrument panel as do to an electrical short with the radio. The dealer was unable to determine the cause of the clicking sound coming from the front axle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70.
About 30 miles after starting a 1,500-mile road trip, the infotainment screen and driver instrument panel both went completely blank. After about 60 seconds, the system apparently rebooted, restoring both screens to normal operation. However, during that minute I was driving at approximately 75 mph on Interstate 90, and I had no access to certain vehicle controls and no way to verify my speed or see messages about cruise control. The error generated no warning lights or error codes, so I have not reported the issue to the manufacturer or dealership. The issue occurred with the odometer at about 180 miles. The odometer is now at about 1650 miles. I have not experienced the issue again.
No heat at all. This is not good when here in the northeast its only been in the teens. My car has now been sitting at the dealership for a month with no idea when the part will be in to fix it. If they had just said to keep driving it till the parts came in this could have caused a safety issue health wise. I have not contacted the manufacturer as of it about this issue.
Starting at around 600 miles, there was a clicking sound from what I believe is the CV joint when turning full lock in both directions. Now at 1700 miles it happens when turning before the wheel is locked in either direction.
The dash and infotainment shut down and went completely blank screen while driving. No speedometer. No information on how fast I was going.
The car had an error with a front safety camera, the car stopped in the middle of an intersection and I had to coast into the nearest parking lot. The error cleared it self but Honda was of no help. The dealers do not know how to fix the cars.
Loud clicking noise in front end when making hard turns. Suspect CV joint or related front axle issue. Have confirmed noise with dealer, no solution offered yet. A failed CV joint or axle poses a safety issue, particularly at highway speeds.
Leaking Cv joint causing clicking when making a tight turn
The car just emergency brakes for no reason. This is an issue because what it decides to break one day while another car is near by or I am on the highway. Also, there is a cv joint clicking issue and there was a red car with a ! That popped up too, when I took it to the dealership they were no help.
When turning sharply and accelerating at low speeds or from a stop, vehicle makes clicking sound. Vehicle is brand new, and I noticed this with about 600mi on the vehicle. I'm concerned this could lead to future loss of steering and cause an accident or render vehicle not drivable. I have taken it to the dealer and their mechanic confirmed hearing the same clicking noise and is awaiting guidance from the manufacturer (Honda corporate) on how to resolve it. I'm still waiting for a solution .
Both CV shafts click under load turning
Axel noise on passenger front side when turning , also cause vehicle to almost slide. Very noticeable at low speeds and 3 point turns. Many owners are experiencing this as well as myself.
While driving, both screens went completely black. Without the screens I was not able to monitor speed, no access to headlights and no access to adjust one pedal driving mode. All audio stopped as well. At first I didn’t know if I lost power to the entire vehicle, which distracted me from driving. Once I got my bearings, quickly accessed that the vehicle did not lose power, I pulled over. No warning lights or messages prior to this incident. No warning at all. It took about 10 minutes before both screens came back on. Being unable to monitor vehicle status and unable to see speed and no access to multiple options without the screen, put my safety at risk and other people around me at risk. I have not taken it in for any inspection at this time. This just happened yesterday.
Sensors cause unnecessary braking when going in reverse. Happen in rainy conditions.
When accelerating while turning the steering wheel either right or left, I hear a clicking sound in the front of the vehicle. I reported it to a dealer 7 days ago (on 1/13/2025), but I still have not heard back.
The vehicle comes with an HondaLink app that allows control of many features and is needed to claim the valuable charging credits (EVGo) that come with the vehicle. It has been more than a month since we bought the vehicle and the HondaLink app has never worked. I have been on the phone with Honda many times with no fix. They have sent me email links to patch the issue, but none of the links have worked. This is a defective app.
The car has a clicking noise every time I turn from a stop. It was diagnosed as requiring front axles to be replaced. I was told that it was safe to drive but the noise has me concerned. Problem was diagnosed on 12/13/2024. I have been told the axles won’t be released until 2/24/2025. I am not the only one in this situation
After about 6000 miles, there has been a consistent clicking sound when I turn the wheel that I understand is a faulty CT joint.
Where to begin? not even 2 weeks after having this vehicle it nearly caused a major accident and gave me whiplash & neck problems (have doctors documentation as proof) when the automatic breaking system hard breaked my vehicle twice in the same trip (20 minutes from work to home) with the second time resulting in my car skidding quite a few feet on a highway in the middle of rush hour traffic (want to note the distance in front of the car was quite significant both times) also both CV joint axles need replacing on top of rear passenger door is not the right size & often pops open. Honda dealership has my vehicle for 31 days back in December January stating parts for door would be in within the month and the cv axle would be beginning of march. here it is March 26th and I've heard nothing from the dealership after multiple attempts of trying to get a hold of them. also worked with Honda and opened a claim who also is ignoring my calls. I hardly want to touch the vehicle as I'm afraid of it causing a major accident or the door popping open as I'm driving with my children in the car.
I just leased a 2024 Honda Prologue in October. It has a serious design flaw that Honda is refusing to fix -- the minimum temperature setting for heat is 70 degrees! Set the temperature any lower than 69 and it will blast feet and face with cold air even if the car is cold and it is 20 degrees outside. With a heavy winter coat, that's way too warm (and its also bad for range). I consider it a safety issue because when it gets too warm, it negatively impacts my alertness. And I can't safely take off my heavy winter coat while on the highway. I opened case #[XXX] with Honda on [XXX] and on Dec 20 Cynthia called me back to say that unless NHTSA declares it a safety defect Honda will not be fixing this. Now I'm stuck with the 3 year lease with this problem unless I can convince the dealer and Honda Finance to terminate the lease and refund my money. If I had known about this limitation I would have never leased this vehicle. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
I have the same CV joint issue as most prologues. Loud, rapid clicking when turning right or left and Honda has no fix or remedy. I’m kind of just waiting for the front axle to fall apart while driving. The other issue is electrical, issues with hvac system and the memory seat has no fix either. Suspension is biggest issue that is unfixable and seems to be a high risk safety issue in my opinion.
When turning, either left or right, a clicking noise is coming from the the front end. The noise comes from the front end in the direction I am turning from the wheels area of the front end.
Honda Prologue drive shafts (axles) click and grind when turning Dealer originally told me the parts are defective and placed an order for replacements. Three months later they told me that the problem was a “feature of the vehicle” and would not be fixed
