ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
ON THE DASH IS THE ENTERTAINMENT SYSTEM TABLET-LIKE TOUCHSCREEN. ALL PROFESSIONAL HONDA REVIEWERS KNOW THIS ISSUE AND EVEN HONDA THEMSELVES HAVE FIXED THE NEW ENTERTAINMENT TABLET SHORTFALLS BUT THIS CAR IS STILL BEING SOLD TODAY WITH THIS HARMFUL SYSTEM. THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM CONTROLS BOTH THE REAR-VEIW CAMERA AND THE BLIND-SPOT MONITOR ON THE SIDE VEIW. BECAUSE THE SYSTEM IS BUGGY, AND LAGGY, SOMETIMES THE CAMERA WILL FREEZE AN IMAGE ON THE SCREEN. SOMETIMES THE CAMERAS WILL NOT SHOW ON THE DASH AT ALL (AGAIN, BECAUSE THE ANDROID BASED SYSTEM IS VERY SLOW) LAST NIGHT MY WIFE ALMOST KILLED HERSELF WHEN THE GPS SAID "EXIT RIGHT" AND HER IMAGE ON THE SCREEN WAS FROZEN WITHOUT ANY CARS BUT AN 18 WHEELER WAS HONKING AND SWERVING AWAY FROM US MAKING A DRAMATIC HOP INTO THE RIGHT LANE. I FEEL A CIVIL DUTY TO REPORT THIS ONE-OF-MANY INSTANCES THAT THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM ALMOST KILLED ME MY FAMILY AND MANY OTHERS (PEDESTRIANS AND OTHER DRIVERS)

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
TWICE I EXPERIENCED EXTREME HIGH REVS (LIKE THE CAR WAS IN NEUTRAL AND YOU HAVE THE PEDAL TO THE METAL)WITH ABSOLUTE LOSS OF POWER AND SPEED DOWN TO 30 MPH FIRST TIME ON FREEWAY & 10 MPH SECOND TIME ON HIGHWAY. HAPPENED TWICE WHEN BATTERY WAS LOW (EACH TIME BATTERY DISPLAY ACTUALLY WENT DOWN TO 1 BAR WHICH I'VE BEEN TOLD BY DEALER THAT IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO GO BELOW 2 BARS WHEN HV KICKS IN) AND ON SLIGHT INCLINE. SUPER SCARY DANGEROUS, FAMILY SCREAMING OF FEAR INSIDE VEHICLE)! ALSO HAVE RANGE DISPLAY ERROR, ENGINE TURNING ON WHEN BATTERY IS FULL ALMOST EVERY DAY AND NO CHARGING WHEN HV CHARGE ENGAGED. ORIGINAL DEALER TEST DROVE CAR 300 MILES, DID UPDATE AND TOLD ME NOTHING WRONG WITH CAR. I WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR, IT SAT AT DEALER FOR A MONTH. AFTER FIGHTING WITH HONDA AND GOING NOWHERE WITH THEM OR DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT BACK AND ALL ISSUES WHERE STILL THERE. TOOK CAR 3 TIMES TO DEALER #2 WHO SAID THEY CANNOT HELP, TO DEAL WITH HONDA. I EVEN EMAILED VIDEOS AND PHOTOS BUT THEY DID NOT SEEM TO CARE OR MAKE EFFORT TO RESEARCH IT. TOOK TEST DRIVE WITH TECH, HE HAD EXCUSES FOR EVERYTHING. HAD OPENED TICKET WITH HONDA, ORIGINALLY A SPECIAL TECH GUY WAS SUPPOSED TO COME CHECK THE CAR, 2 MONTHS LATER STILL NOTHING, AFTER DOZENS OF CALLS TO HONDA THEY TOLD ME THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND THEY CANCELLED THE SPECIALIST AS THEY CANNOT JUSTIFY THE COST OF IT. I EVEN HAD TO PAY FOR THE LOANER AND AGAIN HONDA SAID THEY CANNOT JUSTIFY COVERING IT. THEY SAY TO CONTACT DEALER, DID NOT DO ANYTHING AND ENDED UP TELLING ME TO GET A LAWYER. I AM NOW STUCK WITH A CAR THAT HAS MAJOR ISSUES MOST OF THE TIME, I HAVE TO STOP ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO SHUT CAR OFF 2 TO 3 TIMES IN THE MORNING WHEN THE BATTERY IS FULL AND GO THROUGH LOTS OF GAS BECAUSE TH E BATTERY DOES NOT RECHARGE AND THE ENGINE IS REVVING EXTREMELY HIGH. I AM ALSO WORRIED ABOUT THE LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
THE CLARITY PHEV IS INCOMPATIBLE WITH PUBLIC CHARGING STATIONS (E.G. CHARGEPOINT) THAT FEATURE DUAL CHARGING PORTS AND AN ENERGY MANAGEMENT CONTROLLER (EMC). THE VEHICLE'S ONBOARD CHARGER WILL SHUT OFF WHEN IT SENSES THE CHARGING STATION'S EMC IS ACTIVATED WHEN BOTH PORTS ARE ENGAGED FOR SIMULTANEOUS CHARGING. MULTIPLE FAILED ATTEMPTS TO RESTART CHARGING WILL RESULT IN A "TOTAL SYSTEM FAILURE" WARNING FROM THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO NOT START AND DRIVE. OWNERS COULD BE STUCK IN A PARKING STALL FOR UP TO 4 HOURS TO ALLOW THE SYSTEM TO SELF-HEAL/RECOVER FROM THE TOTAL SYSTEM FAILURE BEFORE BEING ABLE TO START AND DRIVE THE CAR. ISSUE HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP, BUT NO INFORMATION FROM HONDA OR THE DEALERSHIP ON A FUTURE SOFTWARE UPDATE TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I THINK HONDA SHOULD PERFORM ITS DUE DILIGENCE TO ISSUE A RECALL FOR THE CLARITY PHEV AND POTENTIALLY FOR ITS ALL-ELECTRIC VERSION TO RESOLVE THIS MAJOR FLAW.

WHEELS
ALL FOUR TIRES ON MY CAR WERE SET TO 50PSI WHEN THE RECOMMENDED TIRE PRESSURE BASED ON THE STICKER ON THE DOOR WAS SUPPOSED TO BE 36PSI MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT IT DONE WHILE THE VEHICLE IS PARKED ON THE DEALERS LOT SO THE TIRES WON'T DEFORM. DEALER FAILED TO ADJUST TO PROPER PRESSURE.

SERVICE BRAKES, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
ON OCCASION WHILE BRAKING, THE CAR ATTEMPTS TO MOVE FORWARD EVEN THOUGH THE BRAKE IS APPLIED. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAS A SECTION DIVIDED BETWEEN POWER BEING USED AND CHARGE BEING STORED AS THE CAR IS DESIGNED TO CHARGE THE ELECTRIC BATTERY WHENEVER THE BRAKE IS APPLIED. WHEN THIS SITUATION OCCURS, THE BRAKE PEDAL IS FIRMLY APPLIED AND THE NEEDLE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IS IN THE "CHARGING" AREA. THE CAR ATTEMPTS TO JERK FORWARD AND THERE IS SHAKING/VIBRATION AS THE APPLIED BRAKE KEEPING THE CAR IN PLACE FACES OFF WITH THE CHARGING SYSTEM THAT IS TRYING TO HAVE THE CAR MOVE FORWARD FOR WHATEVER REASON. THE RESOLUTION WHEN THIS OCCURS IS TO RELEASE THE FOOT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL AND IMMEDIATELY APPLY IT AGAIN WHICH REQUIRES THE CAR TO JERK FORWARD MOMENTARILY. THIS OCCURRED IN A DRIVE-THRU WHERE THE CAR IN FRONT WAS FAIRLY CLOSE AHEAD.

POWER TRAIN
FIRST TIME CAR FAILED AROUND APRIL 201. IT DISPLAYED ENGINE FAILURE, EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUSE CONTROL PROBLEM. THE HYBRID SYSTEM WAS DISABLED AND I HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO GIVE ME A SATISFACTORY EXPLANATION OF WHAT FAILED AND HOW IT WAS FIXED. SECOND TIME IT FAILED IN LATE JUNE, THE SAME WAY IT FAILED IN APRIL. THIS TIME THE BATTERY HAD ENOUGH CHARGE TO DRIVE TO DEALER BUT THE HYBRID WAS DISABLED AS WELL. THIS TIME I WAS TOLD THE COMPUTER IS READING A FALSE WATER PUMP FAILURE AND THERE IS NO SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THIS PROBLEM. THEY CLEARED THE FAULT AND RETURNED THE CAR TO ME. SECOND TIME THERE WAS AN ADDITIONAL FAILURE WHERE THE RANGE DISPLAYED 999 MILES RANGE AFTER I REFILLED THE GAS. THERE WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR THIS PROBLEM. EACH TIME THE FAILURES OCCURRED THE CARE WAS IN MOTION, FIRST TIME WAS LOCAL TRAFFIC SECOND TIME WAS HIGHWAY DRIVING. BOTH TIMES THE CAR WAS RUNNING IN ELECTRIC MODE.

SERVICE BRAKES, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
AT THE TIME OF THE OCCURRENCE THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN OWNED FOR APPROXIMATELY 90 DAYS AND HAD APPROXIMATELY 2500 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. WHEN INITIALLY STARTED IN A STATIONARY POISTION THE INFORMATION DISPLAY PROVIDED MULTIPLE APPARENTLY SPURIOUS ALARMS AND WARNINGS. THESE WARNINGS CONTINUED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. TURNING THE VEHICLER OFF AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLEWOULD NOT CLEAR THE WARNINGS. THE DISPLAY WOULD CYCLE DISPLAYING *ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM*,*LANE DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM*, AND *EMMISSIONS CONTROL SYSTEM PROBLEM*. ADDTIONALLY THE BRAKE SYSTEM AND LANE DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM MALFUNCTION LIGHTS AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WERE ILLUMINATED THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHO RESET THE CODES USING PROPRIETARY HONDA VEHICLE ANALYSIS SOFTWARE. THE WARNING AND CODES DID NOT RE-APPEAR. THE CAUSE FOR THE WARNINGS WAS NOT DETERMINED. THESE APPARENTLY SPURIOUS WARNINGS PRESENT A SAFETY CONCERN. THEY PROVIDE A DISTRACTION TO THE DRIVER WHILE CYCLING ON THE INFORMAITON DISPLAY AND COULD CAUSE A DRIVER TO IGNORE VALID WARNINGS IN THE BELIEF THEY TOO ARE SPURIOUS. THE ISSUE IS SUCH THAT IT WARRANTS MONITORING BY THE MANUFACTURER AND NTSB TO DETERMINE THE ROOT CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM AND FREQUENCY OF OCCURRENCE.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I HAVE DRIVEN THE CLARITY FOR 4 MONTHS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN HEAVY TRAFFIC WITH HONDA SENSING TURNED OFF AND NO CRUISE CONTROL. IF I AM FOLLOWING THE CAR AHEAD CLOSELY AND THE VEHICLE AHEAD SLOWS DOWN , BUT NOT ENOUGH FOR AN ACCIDENT, THE CLARITY STOPS UNNECESSARILY QUICKLY, SCARING ME AND PUTTING ME AT RISK OF GETTING HIT FROM BEHIND. IT'S SCARY. I AM VERY CAPABLE OF STOPPING THE CAR ON MY OWN AND DO NOT NEED THE CAR OVERCOMPENSATING. IF I TURN ALL THE SAFETY FEATURES OFF, I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
VEHICLE RANGE CALCULATION IS INCORRECT FOR HIGHWAY/LONG DISTANCE TRAVEL. THE RANGE ESTIMATE SHOWS OFF EVEN WHEN FUEL LEVEL IS VERY LOW. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN STARTING A TRIP IT MIGHT SHOW 1000 MILES RANGE. ON THE HIGHWAY, THIS WILL COUNT DOWN VERY QUICKLY, 1 MILE DRIVEN MIGHT COUNT DOWN 4 MILES OF ESTIMATED RANGE. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THIS RANGE ESTIMATE DOESN'T UPDATE QUICKLY ENOUGH TO REFLECT THAT THE PLUG-IN HYBRID VEHICLE IS DRIVING ON A LONG TRIP INSTEAD OF AROUND TOWN AND THE RANGE WON'T BE NEAR AS MUCH SINCE IT ISN'T ADDING ELECTRICITY AT HOME EVERY NIGHT. EVEN WHEN THE FUEL TANK GETS VERY LOW, LESS THAN 1 GALLON, THE ESTIMATE WILL OFTEN BE OFF BY 2 OR 3 TIMES, SO IT MIGHT SHOW 100 MILE RANGE WHEN I REALLY HAVE A 40 MILE RANGE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AS IF A DRIVER IS IN A REMOTE AREA WHERE GAS STATIONS ARE 50 MILES APART, A DRIVER MIGHT ATTEMPT TO DRIVE TO THE NEXT STATION NOT REALIZING THEY HAVE INADEQUATE GAS LEVEL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CLARITY PLUG-IN HYBRID. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST THE ABILITY TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (NARDY HONDA, 559 MIDDLE COUNTRY ROAD, ST JAMES, NEW YORK 11780) AND THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL MODULE WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000.

ENGINE
I FILLED THE SEVEN GALLON GAS TANK YESTERDAY, AND THE DASHBOARD RANGE DISPLAY CALCULATED THE RANGE OF THE CAR ON GAS POWER AS 871 MILES. I HAVE BEEN DRIVEN MOSTLY ON ELECTRIC BATTERY POWER, BUT WITH ONLY SEVEN GALLONS OF GAS IN THE TANK, THAT RANGE IS ABSURD. NEW DRIVERS OF THE VEHICLES MIGHT BELIEVE THE RANGE AND INADVERTENTLY STRAND THEMSELVES SOMEWHERE.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WITH DRIVING WITH A FULLY CHARGED BATTERY DRIVING IN ECON (EV) MODE, THE INTERNAL COMBUSTION (ICE) CAME ONLINE WHEN STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN. AFTER ACCELERATING, THE ICE STOPPED RUNNING AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND THE CAR RESUMED RUNNING IN EV MODE. THIS REPEATED SEVERAL TIMES, AND NOT ALWAYS WHEN THE CAR WAS STOPPED. THIS BEHAVIOR HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT NOT ALWAYS.

WHILE PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY I RECEIVED A NUMBER OF ERROR MESSAGES WHEN I STARTED THE CAR. CAR IS NOW AT HONDA DEALER SINCE 4/5/2018. I WAS TOLD THE LARGE BATTERY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE THE CAR. DEALER UNABLE TO GIVE ME AN ETA ON THE BATTERY. MANY OTHER OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THESE SIMILAR ERROR CODES.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR, I HAVE A HV RANGE OF 340 MILES WITHOUT EV RANGE. SO WHEN I GET HOME I STARTED TO CHARGE MY CAR. NEXT MORNING I HAVE ENOUGH EV TO TRAVEL TO WORK BUT IS NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE TO WORK SO I HAVE TO USE SOME OF THE HV RANGE. SO I CHARGE FROM HOME AND CHARGE FROM WORK AND THAT'S MY DAILY ROUTINE. FINALLY AFTER FEW WEEKS I HAVE TO FILL UP MY TANK BUT MY HV RANGE SHOT UP TO 729 MILES. I WAS SUPRISE BUT FROM THE START I WAS HAPPY BUT REALISE LATER IS NOT TRUE. SO START WATCHING MY RANGE. WHEN I TRAVEL 60 MILES YOU CAN SEE THE HV DROP AT LEAST 160 MILES. FOR ME THAT'S A LITTLE BIT SCARY KNOWING THAT YOU DON'T KNOW HOW MANY MILES YOU HAVE LEFT EVERYTIME YOU DRIVE. THERE'S A POSSIBILITY YOU RUN OUT OF GAS. SO THE SECOND TIME I FILL UP MY CAR THE HV RANGE SHOT UP TO 952 MILES. DEALERSHIP ADVISE ME TO CHARGE THE CAR ONCE A DAY ONLY, AND ALSO SUGGESTED ALSO JUST USE THE GAS ONLY FIRST. THE HONDA CORP TOLD ME THAT'S NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR, DON'T LOOK AT THE RANGE BUT JUST LOOK AT THE GAUGE WHICH THERE'S NO WAY YOU CAN TELL HOW MUCH GAS MILES YOU HAVE LEFT. FOR ME AND OTHER PEOPLE COMPLAINING FROM HONDA IS A SAFETY ISSUE, YOU CAN BE DRIVING AT FREEWAY AND SUDDENLY THE CAR WILL STOP BECAUSE YOU RUN OUT OF GAS.
