What owners say
Loud clicking or ratcheting sound coming from front suspension (ball joint/control arm/axel) that occurs when taking tight turns, left or right. Dealership said its not visibly broken after visual inspection, so there is no warranty coverage until Honda issues a formal recall or other directive.
When driving my Honda 2024 Prologue there is a loud, persistent, clunking or popping sound whenever I turn. The dealership says it's related to the axle and/or the ball joint and there is no fix, neither is there a recall, so there is nothing they can, or will, do. This cannot be safe. When I'm driving at freeway speeds and go to turn into another lane to hear this clunking sound is very unnerving. Looking on line I know I am not the only one with this issue - there are many, many other car owners citing the same concern. Please issue a recall or safety warning so that Honda will address this issue.
The car is clicking and clunking whenever a turn is made. Honda said they can’t fix the issue because they don’t see any visible damage to the CV joint or lower control arm at this time.
The right side bumper has separated from the hinges, and I feel that this might be related to the previous 2024 Honda Prologue recall about the right control arm. I just want to make sure that it is reported as it looks like a manufacturing fault. My car only has 1500 miles on it.
