09/2019- traveling the interstate in fast lane in rush hour traffic approx. 79mph vehicles in front of & numerous vehicles behind me. A vehicle in the right lane switched lanes in front of me causing mine to hit the brakes, locking up, smoke coming from the rear of vehicle. The vehicle behind me was in the median the 2nd vehicle was inches from me. My passenger (child in back) safely strapped, had a whelp & burn on right side of neck/chest from seatbelt. Solution do not use cruise control. 11/2019 on vacation the vehicle showed low tire pressure light on the dash, pulled over to check the pressure, all tires were okay. Traveling on a 3 lane busy highway, in the mountains the brake would engage along with the steering, jerk to the left, "lane departure" on the dash. It took all of my strength to pull against the vehicle keeping it on the road. No guard rail on the road. Pulling against the steering prevented my CRV from going over the mountain. I could not have the econ on, if on, the highest speed I could reach in the CRV was 35mph. With the econ off 45 mph was the highest speed the travel speed of the other vehicles was between 65-70mph. This continued throughout the trip. I took the CRV to the Honda dealership once I was home it was kept for a week. They feel like a software update solved the issue. I later contacted the dealership to let them be aware the issue was not resolved. Said they made Honda aware, but did not. I had a case with Honda, but nothing has been done. My emails not replied and the messages left on the voicemails, not returned. I have contacted numerous times, spoken with service representatives and assured my call would be returned, nothing. Dealership stated they no longer will be able to help with any issues. This is frustrating. My life as well as my children are important although Honda isn't thinking the same.
