What 2024 Honda Passport owners say
Brakes
Breaking and steering wheel malfunction causing accident on December 20th 2024. Car is currently still at dealership for investigation. My safety was at risk, causing injury to shoulder. Not sure if problem has been reproduced, not confirmed by dealership as of yet.

Was called back by dealership to have additional inspection done and was told that my car was going to be refurbished. issues started once my car had hit 10,000 miles, after my first vehicle maintenance expectation. Received multiple systems warning lights, information dealership multiple times and nothing was done until after the accident Still have no car til this day 5/14/25.
Rotors went bad with less than 250 miles on new car. Per American Honda rotors are not defective, because Dealership didn't day were defective; therefore, not covered under warranty, considered wear and tear. Dealership initially stated the cause of the rotors going bad was me: that I was hard braking and riding the brakes; however, first, I'd only had the car about 3 months and second, I contacted the Dealership a few days after I bought the car and informed them of the problem. Next, Dealership said the rotors were bad because my aftermarket floor mats were resting on the brake; however, the mats were put there two days before. The 2024 Honda Passport rotors are defective. At the very least the rotors in the one I purchased are dedective.

When we come to a stop position, the Fuel Savings Cut off does not start back up and the car stalls and shifts back to N. Takes for ever to re start if it can re start. This has happened to us more that 6 times. I took it this morning to Flow Honda of Charlottesville and talked to the service manager, Jackie. I felt like she thought I had three heads and didn't know what I was talking about, even though I enclosed a printed copy of the issues Honda was having with the Fuel Savings feature cut off.
Electrical system
Electrical mechanical malfunction to Breaking and steering wheel issues, along with vehicle stalling performance issues. Notified Honda multiple times, unable to resolve issue that led to an accident on December 20th 2024, was told it was due to AWS system and camera components were replaced. Continue Reoccurring issues to vehicle required a diagnosis Honda unable to diagnose vehicle while still under warranty also refused to continue to acknowledge warranty and safety of passenger.

I am having an issue with the turn signal / emergency flasher not making any noise while in operation. The system visual components work fine. It's the inability to hear the flashing of the signals while driving down the road This could lead to issues with other cars trying to interpret the intention of the movement of my car while I am driving. I went to the Honda dealership (Gillman Honda) service department and was informed that my particular model does not have a fix or capability for the sound level to be adjusted, whereas other models (Pilot, Accord, etc.) do have this capability. Replacement of the flasher is not an option. Could the NHTSA please create a minimum decibel level standard to help insure safe operation of vehicles on the roads.
