Narrative

The contact owns a 2025 Honda Accord. The contact stated that while driving at any high speeds, the collision mitigation braking system (CMBS) engages independently. In addition, all 4 tires lock, and the emergency brake engages. A dealer was contacted. No warning light illuminated; however a warning message to "brake" would illuminate, but did not give the contact ample time to engage the brake pedal manually. The contact mentioned she sustained whiplash due to the failure. The contact also mentioned that the failure occurred on three different occasions. During the most recent failure, the contact mentioned driving at 40 MPH, when the CMBS engaged independently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed; however the diagnosis was unknown. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 2,111.
