2026 HONDA PASSPORT

The lane keep assist steers like a drunk person. On Interstate 15 at 75 mph, the LKAS steers into other lanes even on a straight road. At 45 mph, when going around a mild curve, it may keep going in a curve when the road straightens out, and steer towards opposing traffic. At 30 mph, when traveling through city intersections, it steers into the opposing left hand turn lane even on a straight road. This new generation of Honda LKAS should be named Lane Krash Assist. LKAS is typically too dangerous to use in traffic. LKAS makes it difficult to drive safely. Honda used to have a good LKAS, but the new generation LKAS is dangerous. I want Honda to fix my LKAS, which likely requires new software and/or new LKAS altogether.

General Grabbers AT Driving center lane on clear highway. Tire had a complete sidewall blow out total separation of sidewall and tread. Almost lost control of vehicle. Brand new vehicle with only 400 miles on it. Location on the outside of the sidewall. We saved the tire if you would like us to send it in for inspection.

When AUTO climate control is enabled, the vehicle disables manually selected heated seat settings without driver consent. This requires repeated driver interaction to restore seat heat while driving. AUTO climate should regulate fan speed and airflow only, not override manual seat heater controls. The behavior creates unnecessary driver distraction and removes expected manual control of interior comfort features.

After maybe an hour of driving, the driver's seat becomes uncomfortable to the point that my left buttocks and leg become sore and numb, causing me to have to continually shift positions and adjust the seat while driving. I feel this creates an unsafe driving habit. I am now reporting this issue to Honda, so they have not yet had a chance to respond to my concerns. After reporting to Honda, I may also take the car to the dealer to see if they have any suggestions.

I was in my 2026 Honda Passport with ~450 miles driven at time of incident, 1445EST on 14 October 2025. I was driving ~58MPH down a road in Columbia County, GA. I was on a straightaway with no bends/turns. There were no obstructions on the road, no oncoming traffic, and no vehicle in visible sight in front of me. The weather was sunny, no clouds in the sky and no shadows across the road. My Passport braked suddenly, causing me to sharply decelerate, jerking my head and body quickly. If anyone were behind me at the time, they may have potentially struck my vehicle due to the sharp deceleration.

My 2026 Passport has severe transmission issues that the dealership and Honda North America are not acknowledging. The shifts are harsh at any speed. The downshifts (especially from 40-0 mph) are consistently violent and jerky. I cannot drive this car smoothly enough to keep my newborn baby in it because the car rocks and lunges enough to disturb him. I have driven two other brand new Passports and have been able to replicate the same issues. I have also driven with a Honda tech in the car and he has said the transmission is way too harsh although he can’t do anything about it because Honda North America has to send software updates to fix the issue. I have 3,600 miles on the odometer.

This is not an accident but a could contribute to an accident. the drivers seat on the 2026 Honda passport is extremely difficult to sit in more than 30 mins. The fan ventilation "system" that is in the New 2026 passport can be felt and puts pressure in the pelvic floor and tail bone area. I have had to put a 2 inch padding and tip the site higher than I would normally. I know that seat are designed for safety and I am aware doing all these adjustments takes from that Safty in an accident. I can also add the structural (body) discomfort is very distracting while I drive which takes away from my focus. I have read many other complaints on reddit website forums. This is a design flaw that could possibly cause future harm. I feel this issue needs to be addressed by Honda .

Purchased a 2026 Honda Passport and driven approximately 1 month, 1000 miles. While going down the interstate, the panoramic sunroof exploded. Had the fabric cover not been closed, my children could have been seriously injured by shards of glass. We were able to safely pull over and assess the damage. Honda filed a warranty claim for repair.

Driving around 40 miles an hour on interstate during torrential rain around 4 PM. Visibility was bad and could see about 30 feet ahead. Car automatically slammed on break (ADAS BRAKE Light came on) and came to an abrupt stop 2 or 3 times as a tried to get car moving again. Luckily all traffic was driving slow and car behind was staying a good distance back. Otherwise I probably would have been rear-ended. This area is also under construction so some old road lines have been grinded down and new lines repainted to new traffic pattern. I have had the car brake and light come on2-3x before when I thought it shouldn't have. This is the first time it was so abrupt and did it several times back to back that I was scared for my safety.

There was no warning light illuminated. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact was informed that the VIN was not under recall.

Steering wheel makes clicking noises at low speeds when turning. Dealership was able to replicate the noise and diagnosed as bad coil reel. The coil reel was replaced and the problem persists. Informed by dealer that there’s nothing more they can do.

It’s not an incident. Looking out The windshield has a slight distortion, that looking through it, it seems like looking through a low grade prescription glasses. I have reported it to the dealership and they took note of it and mentioned that they will check it. In terms of safety, it puts some strain into my eyes while driving.

The navigation when using apple maps simultaneously tells the driver 2 different sets of directions that do not match. The small screen on the gauge cluster shows incorrect street names that are nowhere near your location, and also tells you incorrect turns. For example, the large navigation screen on the infotainment system will say to make a right turn on the correct street, while the small screen on the gauge cluster will tell the driver to make a left turn an a different street that that the vehicle is not near. Sometimes it will make up random street names. This is dangerous to drivers who are not aware of the problem or forget about it because it causes confusion while driving. This causes the driver to wonder which set of directions to follow, make wrong turns, and look for streets that are not there. This would be especially dangerous to new drivers or elderly drivers. The vehicle was taken to 2 different dealerships for service but neither one of them were able to fix the pr

Today, while backing from my driveway into our residential street, I came to a complete stop and placed the vehicle's transmission from Reverse to Drive and when doing so, the vehicle shut itself off, put itself into park and engaged the parking brake. I was able to re-start the vehicle and it operated as usual. We have an appointment scheduled with our local Honda dealership on 05/19/25 to inspect the vehicle.
