I was traveling on the highway when suddenly my car started shuddering and slowing down. It was heavy traffic and difficult to navigate to the right shoulder, and my car was nearly hit by a semi-truck. The engine was misfiring and the engine light blinking yellow. I was able to turn off and restart my car and make it home. The mechanic initially thought the issue was old spark plugs and ignition coils. Replacing them didn’t help. I was again on a highway when the issue happened again. I brought the car to the dealership and they said the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. I spent over $2k to replace them on 7/7/25. The problem hasn’t happened since.

In February of 2022, the automatic emergency braking system (CMBS) randomly activated as I was driving through an intersection and caused my 2019 Honda SUV to suddenly decelerate, shudder, and jerk while coming to a very sudden stop. There were no other cars in front of me or at the side of me and the weather was clear and the road smooth. My seatbelt tightened as I was jerked forward by the sudden stop. The emergency brake warning sign was flashing on the dashboard. At first I was unable to accelerate and move the car forward but after a minute was able to start up. There were cars following behind me and they too had to make a very sudden stop and avoided what could have been multiple rear end collisions. I have approximately 7,000 miles on this SUV and have driven it for approximately two years and this is the first incident. I am scared to drive it with the CMBS activated and am turning it off every time I start the car!
