Summary
VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINT - RECALL REPAIR FAILURE AND CMBS MALFUNCTION I am filing a formal vehicle safety complaint regarding two critical defects on my vehicle (VIN: [XXX]) and the refusal of American Honda Motor Co. to address them under Corporate Case #XXX. 1. CRITICAL SAFETY HAZARD (PHANTOM BRAKING): The vehicle's Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) / Automatic Emergency Braking (AEB) is experiencing severe and dangerous malfunctions. While driving at highway speeds through construction zones with absolutely zero obstacles, vehicles, or pedestrians ahead, the vehicle violently and unpredictably slams on the brakes by itself. This unprovoked emergency braking creates an immediate and extreme risk of a catastrophic rear-end collision on the highway. 2. FEDERAL SAFETY RECALL REPAIR FAILURE (CAMPAIGN ZEM): The vehicle's instrument cluster, infotainment display screen, backup camera, and audio system repeatedly go completely black and reset while driving, disabling all driver visibility of vehicle speed, safety alerts, backup assist, and vital indicators. While NHTSA records indicate that the ZEM Recall Campaign was previously logged as "completed" on this VIN, the defect is fully active. This constitutes an official federal recall repair failure. The original safety hazard remains unresolved. MANUFACTURER RESPONSE & REFUSAL: American Honda
Corporate was formally notified of both issues under Case #XXX. Corporate responded by completely ignoring the severe phantom braking defect and refused to authorize a safety diagnostic. Furthermore, they used the administrative status of the closed ZEM recall to deny any responsibility for the ongoing screen, camera, and audio failure. American Honda is actively forcing me to drive a vehicle with a failed safety recall repair and a defective autonomous braking system unless I pay out-of-pocket diagnostic fees to the dealer (Dave Mungenast St. Louis Honda
). I request an immediate federal investiga INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA

Summary
the 10 speed transmission
at low transmission
temps shifts extremley hard to the point where it will down shift in a slow acceleration back to first gear and chirp the tires, in the rain this could cause me to lose traction in adverse weather conditions. Somtimes it will shift into to neutral and not accelerate at all for a few seconds before shifting back into first gear, making it dangerous if I im trying to cross a road and the truck essentially stalls for a few seconds blocking the road way. The last full service oil change i had said the transmission fluid was correct. on online forums i have seen a lot of the same issues with other owners. I asked ford
dealership about it and they told me to drive it until a warning light comes on. this sounds like some issue with the transmission
itself and not a wear and tear issue as i have 100,000 miles on the truck and do very little towing with it.

I filed a report earlier and uploaded photos. My right front had a bump in the middle of the tire which caused that portion of tire (1/4) to go bald and caused the car bump as you drove it. the company, [XXX] asked for my bank routing number and account number and receipts which I provided. Afterwards, the female employee sent a form which I am uploading to return to their finance dept. I do not like having to give out personal info such as the form requires. When asked if a check can be sent she informed me that they could not send a check. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
