additional type: https://schema.org/AccidentReport
start date: 2020-12-26
description: ON DECEMBER 26, 2020, I WAS LEAVING WORK, AFTER A 12 HOUR SHIFT AT THE HOSPITAL. WHILE BACKING INTO AN ALLEYWAY MY CAR STRUCK A LARGE ROLL-OFF DUMPSTER (WHICH WAS CADDY CORNERED IN THE ALLEY) OF THE BACK, DRIVER QUARTER PANEL AND BACK DRIVER DOOR. THE REARVIEW CAMERA, BLIND SPOT WARNING, PARKING COLLISION WARNING, THE REAR CROSS TRAFFIC WARNING, NOR THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING KICKED IN. I WAS GOING AT A VERY LOW SPEED AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT (~1-2 MPH). MY CAR HAD BEEN WARMED UP PRIOR TO GETTING IN IT.I DID NOT SPEND OVER 40K ON A VEHICLE FOR THE THE SAFETY FEATURES TO NOT WORK WHEN YOU NEED THEM TO. I HAVE NOTICED THAT I HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH MY LANE DEPARTURE WARNING AND THE FORWARD COLLISION WARNING HAS BEEN NOT WORKING 100% OF THE TIME RECENTLY, BUT THAT NEVER BOTHERED ME BEFORE. WHAT IS UPSETTING IS THAT I HAVE ALREADY HAD TO HAVE HONDA REPLACE THE FRONT SENSOR DUE TO MY CAR THROWING CODES (LKAS, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL & FRONT COLLISION WARNING) NOT FUNCTIONING, AS WELL AS MY BACK DRIVER DOOR LOCK (ALREADY GONE BAD). NOW THIS. MY CAR ISN'T EVEN 2 YEARS OLD.I TOOK MY CAR BY MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP (PRIORITY HONDA OF ROANOKE) ON 12/30/20 WHERE I WAS TOLD TO CONTACT AMERICAN HONDA BECAUSE OF THE RECALL ON THE BCM ON MY CAR AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS MOST LIKELY CONTRIBUTED TO THE ACCIDENT. AFTER CONTACTING AMERICAN HONDA I WAS BASICALLY TOLD THAT IT IS NOT A SAFETY RECALL BUT A "NON-COMPLIANCE" RECALL AND THAT THE SAFETY FEATURES THEY BOAST ABOUT ARE NOT ACTUAL
