What owners say
There is a clicking sound when turning due to the CV axles. It is the same issue many others are having
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.
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.
The vehicle makes a "loud clicking/ratcheting noise from the front wheels when making sharp left or right turns even with the turn signal on and/or off. The noise is getting progressively louder. I am concerned a failing CV axle assembly could lead to a loss of vehicle control or unexpected drivetrain failure at higher speeds. Honda company issued Tech Line Summary Article for 2024–2026 Honda Prologue as below but somehow dealer refused to correct this issue, and dealer said it is normal. However, this is not a normal. it is serious safety issue. No car in the world produced clicking/ratcheting noise from the front wheels when making sharp left or right turns. The active manufacturer bulletin detailing this issue is: • Bulletin ID: Tech Line Summary Article ATS30070 (Version 1) • Release Date: December 19, 2025 • Applies To: All trims of the 2024–2026 Honda Prologue • The Symptom: "Customers may complain of a clicking or ratcheting type noise when turning."
CV axle makes a very loud clicking noise when turning either right or left. Dealer says there is no recall and they want 190 dollars to diagnose the problem. I mentioned it six months ago to them right after I bought the car and they acknowledged the problem and told me they were waiting to hear from HONDA. The noise has gotten much worse and now they are telling me they want 190 dollars to diagnose the problem.
Front axels are noisy and produce a clicking sound at 1/4 steering wheel articulation
There is a loud clicking noise present when turning the vehicle and accelerating or decelerating at the same time. This noise started around 4000 miles and has gotten progressively worse.
There is a clicking sound when turning right or left which seems the axle is broken. It is still under warranty but the dealer is refusing to fix it saying this breaks on all Prologue cars and they do not have a fix for that
