2022 Honda HR-V

Electrical system complaints lead the 2022 HR-V, followed by powertrain and vehicle speed control issues. On the electrical side, owners describe a range of failures that affect vehicle operation, though the reports cover several different symptoms without a single dominant one. Powertrain complaints center heavily on the CVT transmission, where owners report the engine revving high without a corresponding increase in vehicle speed, essentially the transmission losing its ability to transfer power to the wheels. Several of these reports describe the failure occurring without any warning lights or prior symptoms, and at least a couple note complete loss of forward motion while driving. The vehicle speed control complaints largely involve the driver assistance systems, particularly phantom braking, the car applying the brakes unexpectedly at highway speeds while adaptive cruise control and collision mitigation features are active.
