2019 Honda Passport Complaints

FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE — Filed 07/01/2026

There has been multiple times that my 2019 passport has had the “brake” indicator pop up on my dash telling me to brake when there is nothing there I mean like a completely empty road. There has been a handful of times that it has actually stopped my car like slammed the brakes when there is nothing around or a couple times when a car was passing on the other side of the roadway. This has happened multiple times with someone driving behind me and I fear it could cause a crash due to the car randomly braking so hard.

The safety features connected to the rear view mirror and vehicle sensors malfunctioned. The Adaptive Cruise Control, Collision Mitigation System, Road Departure Mitigation, Lane Keep Assist and High Beam - brake system - have stopped working. It was diagnosed as an internal failure of multipurpose camera. I have noticed there have been a lot of complaints of this failure. My car doesn’t have that many miles on it and isn’t that old. It seems like a defect in the car.

It is available for inspection upon request and I’m not sure as what is happening to it. My an others safety was put at risk when my vehicle suddenly lost power an would not accelerate no matter how much I pressed on gas pedal during driving on a highway there was significant hesitation an would go then act up again it has happened intermittently for over a year now . I have brought it to the attention of Honda dealership and the headquarters a nothing has been done. They claim no light no act up for them . Light came on once no codes and message of an emissions system problem as well then was cleared an no fix. I chance it every time I go out because they refuse to do a better job of testing it. I suggested it may be the fuel injectors because many vehicles have had same problems a were recalled but my my vin was not apart of it. Sadly. Seems it’s a uphill battle to be taken seriously in this matter.

STEERING,SERVICE BRAKES,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE — Filed 05/23/2026

I purchased this vehicle at the end of February 2026. Since the purchase this vehicle has on numerous occasions for no reason applied the brakes and made the steering wheel shake. This has almost caused an accident on several occasions, with today another instance on 5-23-2026. I would turn the system off but from what I understand it re-engages itself after every drive. I like the vehicle but im afraid that its going to cause an accident or someones death. Had I known that I couldn't permanently turn off this dangerous system i would have never bought it and bought a Lexus SUV instead. Honda should give their customers who want to turn this system off a way to do so.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM,FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE — Filed 01/02/2026

The safety features connected to the camera and vehicle sensors have all stopped working. Every time I start my car, multiple lights come on and dashboard messages that cruise control, lane assist and collision prevention systems are not working. The dealership quoted me $2300 to fix and said new sensors/computer system would need to be put in and calibrated. I tried putting a new battery in, which unfortunately did not help. I have heard of multiple other Passport drivers having this issue.

MY 2019 HONDA PASSPORT WITH JUST OVER 100K MILES JUST HAD COMPLETE TRANSMISSION FAILURE. THE CAR WAS RUNNING FINE AND HAS REGULARLY HAD RANDOM HARD SHIFTS SINCE THE DAY I GOT IT AND IVE BROUGHT THE ISSUE UP TO THE DEALER EVERY TIME IT IS BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE. THEY ALWAYS TELL ME THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. AFTER JUST DRIVING TO GET MY CHILD FROM SCHOOL AND COMING HOME PARKING MY CAR AND RUNNING INSIDE THE CAR WAS FINE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS SYSTEM LIGHTS OR WARNINGS THAT SOMETHING WOULD GO WRONG. BUT I GO BACK OUT 10 MINUTES LATER TO TURN IT ON AND THE ENGINE STARTS AND IDLES FINE BUT THERE IS AN ERROR ON THE SCREEN SAYING TRANSMISSION PROBLEM AND THE CAR WONT GO INTO ANY GEAR. I HAD THE CAR TOWED AND THE DEALER DOES NOT YET KNOW HOW MUCH ITS GOING TO COST. THEY HAVE HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS NOW AND WONT TELL ME EXACTLY WHAT PART OF THE TRANSMISSION FAILED, HOW IT FAILED, OR WHAT WOULD HAVE CAUSED IT. I WAS ONLY TOLD THEY ARE WAITING TO HEAR FROM PARTS AND ITS GOING TO BE PRICY! FOR SUCH A YOUNG CAR IT SHOULD NOT NEED THE TRANSMISSION REPLACED AT THIS POINT IN ITS LIFE. THIS IS A MANUFACTURE ISSUE AND SHOULD BE REPLACED BY HONDA. THIS WILL CAUSE MAJOR ISSUES FOR PEOPLE LIVING THEIR EVERYDAY LIFE PAYCHECK TO PAYCHECK. I DONT HAVE MONEY TO PAY FOR SUCH AN EXPENSIVE FIX! I JUST PAID IT OFF.

I was traveling over HighwayXX headed toward [XXX] , traveling has seen a 50 miles an hour when my 2019 passport Auto braked without me putting my foot on the brake. when this happened, the Car Fish tailed towards the center divide, almost hit the cement divide, and I had to correct my steering four times in order to avoid traffic, or crashing into a forest of mature trees. Because of these multiple corrections that I had to make, I ended up swerving in and out of both lanes and my car was out of control for a significant amount of time. It almost hit the center divide of Highway 17. At one point, I was at 180° angle, almost going the other direction. The auto braking of this vehicle, almost got me killed.
