What 2024 Honda Prologue owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
(charging cover cap is open) I always get this sensor popping up even though the charging panel is closed
went it to get my tires replaced and after leaving they said the psi number would reset after driving 5 miles. it never reset it stayed blank. the employee said they must have accidentally broke it. went back got it replaced, and it did the same thing and now i have to go back to try to get this issue resolved
There is a clicking sound when turning due to the CV axles. It is the same issue many others are having
My 2024 Honda Prologue has repeatedly applied sudden, unexpected braking while I was driving, even though there was no vehicle, pedestrian, or obstruction in front of me. The incidents have occurred at different speeds, including approximately 45 mph and 10–15 mph. The vehicle abruptly decelerates without an apparent reason, creating a serious risk of a rear-end collision and endangering me, my passengers, and other motorists. I have sought assistance from authorized Honda dealerships on multiple occasions. During a previous service visit, certain safety features were disabled, but the unexpected braking occurred again afterward. The problem has continued despite my attempts to have it addressed. On October 9, 2026, I brought the vehicle to San Leandro Honda. The dealership documented my complaint that the vehicle randomly brakes when nothing is in front of it. The vehicle was inspected, but the concern remains unresolved. I am not aware of the dealership successfully reproducing the unexpected braking during its inspection. I have also reported this safety concern to American Honda and requested a vehicle repurchase. The manufacturer is reviewing my request. I am concerned that the automatic emergency braking or related collision avoidance system may be malfunctioning. The exact cause remains unknown. I request that the federal safety agency investigate this recurring unexpected-braking condition because of the potential for a serious collision.
There is a loud click and crunching noise coming from the CV joints while making sharp turns at low speed. If these CV joints completely fail at speed, I could loose steering control. Honda has released a service bulletin addressing the existence of this as a known issue, but does not have any fix other than replace the CV boots when damaged. Since this is an EV, longer service intervals mean it may be a long while before damage is visibly seen by a technician. No warning lamps have flashed.
The vehicle makes a loud clicking sound when turning. The steering is not steady and I have to constantly correct steering at highway speeds. I was advised by Honda that it’s a know issue with axel but no fix. My believe is that this is not safe but this is the only veh I have. Honda has refused to fix the issue so far.
Dealer inspection reveals cracked Constant velocity (CV) drive boot which could eventually cause the front axle to fail - a hugely significant safety hazard. The dealer is recommending replacement of the entire front axle which will cost well north of $1300. This apparently is a known defect in the 2024 prologues that Honda has been repairing in multiple vehicles. Needs to be elevated to recall status given this is an inherent defect.
The contact leased a 2024 Honda Prologue. The contact stated that while driving and making a right or left turn, the vehicle made an abnormal clicking sound. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, and the front lower control arm was replaced; however, the failure persisted and the clicking sound became significantly louder. The vehicle was returned to the dealer, where it was determined that both front lower control arms needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was notified of the failure by phone, and a case was filed. The manufacturer informed the contact that the vehicle needed to be repaired and would be repaired out of pocket with a similar part. The failure mileage was approximately 12,000.
The Prologue has recently begun making clicking noises when turning the vehicle left or right. I have concerns about steering and control of the vehicle.
