Have had to replace batteries every single year since purchase in 2015. Vehicle will function fine then struggle to start out of nowhere. Despite taking steps to avoid unnecessary power draining and trying different brands of batteries (which is a small selection) every year around October/November it starts to fail. The car can be jumpstarted without too much issue by another vehicle, but portable jumpstarting systems struggle to get it going. Issues will start without much correlation of how much the vehicle had been in motion prior. Car could've been stationary/turned off for 30 mins or a day with the same results.

The speedometer and gas register either goes blank or shows gibberish several times a day. You cannot deduce speed limit on highway or see how much gas you have.

My assist stability system is defected.. I had my car 2 years as of Dec 15, 2015. The first problem 4 months after bought it noise in the engine.. now from Dec 2, 2018 to January 22, 2018 in this short period of time I had all this work done to that defective car which gaplin Honda dealership located at 11151 laurel canyon, mission hills, ca knew all about, because if the service director [xxx] would not have ordered all this work to be done and the assist stability system lights are still on as we speak. Let me tell you all the work done in a 50 day period (that's ridiculous) a brand new.battery sensor (I paid) a new Honda battery, (I paid) a new alternator( told them I was not @#$% paying because you know its a defect) they said they, cleared PCM ECM, tighten ground connectors if needed, installed powertrain control unit(they know I wasn't paying, they text me "you don't have to pay " bs. The problem still exist all three lights stay on tire pressure, stability light, power steering light (assist stability system) Honda knew when they sold me the car it had a defect, only one owner leased it for 12 months Honda put it up for sale Dec 10, 2015 I bought it Dec 15, 2015 five days later with only 29, 416 miles on it ; nothing should have been wrong with this car. Honda has a class action suit against them regarding their "defective assist stability system " same problem like minds Honda knew that's why they were praying the lights wouldn't never come back on so they can stick me with this defective car I still have it as we speak with all 3 lights on. Look on "gotclassaction.com/Honda defect assist stability system I comment on it in Dec this year ([xxx]). Honda was just throwing [xxx] up against the wall to see if it will stick. I have all my documentation, videos, pictures and text from my Honda advisor to back every word I stated up to the "T" thank you information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

My car began lurching as soon as I pressed the accelerator to leave my driveway. Cars go 50 mph on my road despite the 35 mph signs, I was scared I was going to be rear ended and had to yank the car over to the side of the road immediately. I was afraid I was going to be rear ended. What if the wires had been only mostly chewed and they came loose while I was on the parkway??
