NHTSA recall 15V301000
Forward Collision Avoidance · Honda (American Honda Motor Co.)
Details
What's wrong: In certain driving conditions, the collision mitigation braking system (cmbs) may incorrectly interpret certain roadside objects such as metal fences or metal guardrails as obstacles and unexpectedly apply the brakes.
Why it matters: If the cmbs unexpectedly applies emergency braking force while driving, there is an increased risk of a crash.
The fix: Honda will notify owners, and dealers will update the cmbs software, free of charge. The recall began on July 6, 2015.
