The windshield camera stopped working for no reason. Now I’m getting multiple warnings on my dashboard as most of the safety features stopped working when the camera failed. I’ve only owned this vehicle for 7 years. The dealer said that i will need to spend $2k plus to have it replaced and installed. Dealer said it is a common issue. I feel like this is a defect to the camera and it should be recalled. It is unfair for the consumer to spend that amount of money to fix a vehicle part that i expect to be of high quality and fully tested by the manufacturer. These safety features should be available and working to help keep us safe on the road because we paid for them when we purchased the vehicle. I’ve read online that there are a lot of people affected by this issue. I’m hoping that Honda will do something about this.

Traveling on 295 getting off onto Route 6 West, when suddenly the engine stopped working and miraculously I was able to get to the side of the road into the breakdown lane. The vehicle was towed by AAA to a garage. When the mechanic was able to get it started, it sounded like something was clanking around in the engine. He states it appears a rod broke inside the engine. And now I have to put a brand new engine into it or get rid of it.

My car started showing dash indicators for problems with Collision Mitigation Braking (CMBS), Lane Keeping Assist (LKAS), Adaptive Cruise Control (ACC), Road Departure Mitigation (RDM), and other driver‑assist functions. I took my car to the dealership and was notified there was an issue with the electrical for the front camera and it needs to be replaced. I was quoted for over $2000 to fix this issue. After some research, it appears this is a known issue and has affected several others and there is currently a class action lawsuit regarding the issue. U3000‑49 is a safety issue because the failed camera disables multiple collision‑avoidance and lane‑keeping systems, removing automated protections that help prevent accidents.

VEHICLE: 2019 Honda Pilot EX VIN: [XXX] CURRENT MILEAGE: 77,000 miles COMPLAINT DESCRIPTION: I am filing a critical safety complaint regarding a catastrophic transmission failure that actively disables my vehicle's advanced driver-assist and automated safety systems while driving, creating a severe crash hazard. At approximately 36,085 miles, the vehicle experienced a severe torque converter judder. The dealership performed an 11-quart transmission fluid service. Immediately following this service, the vehicle began suffering from unpredictable, cascading dashboard warning lights that completely disable the vehicle's automated safety braking, forward-facing camera suites, and vehicle stability systems. The dealership repeatedly misdiagnosed this powertrain fault as a camera/sensor issue, charging me out-of-pocket for a front multipurpose camera replacement that did not resolve the issue. At 77,000 miles, the transmission suffered a complete failure. A diagnostic tear-down confirmed a stuck solenoid valve and destructive metal shards circulating throughout the transmission and fluid lines. The primary safety hazard is that the mechanical failure of the powertrain and torque converter actively sends erratic data to the vehicle's central computer, instantly shutting down the automatic emergency braking system, lane-keep assist, and forward collision warnings while the vehicle is in motion on public roads. This forces the driver to operate without critical automated safety features unexpectedly. Honda has issued an extended warranty for transmission judder on certain 2019 Pilots ([XXX]), but claims my specific VIN is excluded despite experiencing the exact same catastrophic mechanical and electronic safety failure. I request an investigation into this safety-disabling defect. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Honda DTC U3000-49 Internal Electronic Failure of the Multipurpose Camera. Ran into an issue where most if not all system modules began flashing warnings in the instrument cluster. The last time this happened, we found our original factory Honda battery to have finally failed. We replaced the battery 6 months ago, thus it's basically new. Naturally we thought possibly that something happened to the battery again, so we brought it back to Goodyear, and they ran tests. Alternator charging system was good, and so was the battery. They reset the system, and all of the warning lights went away for about 5 minutes. After idling for about 5 minutes, all of the random warning lights came back on the instrument cluster. Since the system was reset, the only thing that was flagged after pulling the codes post-reset was U3000-49, which after some research appears to be somewhat common. I talked to my local Honda dealer and they said the cost to fix this is in the mid to high $2000 range. I had to pay Goodyear $67.98 due to the fault not being with their installed battery, and they let the car go saying they couldn't do anything, so I contacted Honda.

I have issues with my 2019 honda pilot front windshield camera. when the front-facing camera malfunctions, it simultaneously shuts down multiple Honda Sensing driver-assistance systems. The front sensor camera mounted behind the windshield fails or glitches, causing simultaneous failures in adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and lane-keeping assist. The failure triggers a cascade of multiple warning messages (such as "adaptive cruise control problem" or "road departure mitigation system problem") i want Honda to repair it under recall.
