Back over prevention › Sensing system › Camera

American Honda Motor Company (Honda) is recalling certain 2024-2025 Honda Prologue and 2024 Acura ZDX vehicles. The rearview camera screen may display a distorted or blank image.

Risk: A rearview image that does not display correctly reduces the driver's view behind the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

Fix: Dealers will replace the rearview camera, free of charge. Interim letters, notifying owners of the safety risk, were mailed July 7, 2026. Additional letters will be sent once the remedy is available, anticipated in late 2026. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138. Honda's numbers for this recall are DO5 and RO6.

Back over prevention › Software

Honda (American Honda Motor Co.) is recalling certain 2024 Acura ZDX and Prologue vehicles. Due to a software error, the instrument panel display may fail. Additionally, a software error may cause the rearview camera to display a blank screen when the vehicle is in reverse. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) numbers 101, "Control and Displays," 111, "Rear Visibility," and 305, "Electric-Powered Vehicles."

Risk: An instrument panel display that fails to show critical safety information, such as the speedometer or warning lights, increases the risk of a crash or injury. Additionally, the loss of the rearview camera image can reduce the driver's rear visibility, increasing the risk of a crash or injury.

Fix: Dealers will update the vehicle radio control module software, free of charge. Owner letters were mailed April 22, 2026. Owners may contact Honda's customer service at 1-888-234-2138.

Recent owner reports

Sep 28, 2026Steering

Turning the wheels both forward and backward while moving causes a pinging sound in the CV joint. I have started hearing this noise after 20,000 miles and the noise is getting louder. I am concerned either the axle will give out or the CV joint will break causing an accident.

Sep 25, 2026Power train

Thumping noise from front axle had repaired and it just came back a month later. It happens when you are at a slow speed and turning the wheel all the way like when you are parking mostly.

My car has a recall for a defective rareview camera (showing all black). I took it to the dealer 2 months ago and they told me that i have to wait for a camera replacement and that they do not know when the part will be available. This is a major safety issue for me and I am not sure how to expedite the process. Or what are the alternatives as I need a car but do not feel safe driving it. Thanks!

I currently lease a 2024 Honda Prologue, and for the past year, both front axles have been clicking. This is a well-documented problem, and it has been determined that the axles have a build problem and need to be replaced. The clicking sound started off on the left side only when making sharp turns, and now both axles make loud clicking noises all the time. This obviously is unacceptable for a vehicle that I have owned for less than 2 years. I went to Honda and asked them about replacement, and they told me there was no recall and that the axles would not be replaced unless they are leaking (…

My car started clicking when making left and right turns. I have to replace both CV joints. The symptoms appeared approximately 20k miles.

I was driving a 2024 Honda Prologue Elite and was coming to an ordinary stop at a safe distance behind another car at a red light. With my foot continuously and firmly pressed on the brake pedal, a brake alert/warning appeared on the dashboard screen accompanied by beeping, and the emergency brakes automatically engaged, stopping the car abruptly. Then, almost immediately, the vehicle suddenly lurched forward without warning, striking the vehicle ahead of me. I kept my foot firmly on the brake as the warning, beeping, and auto-brake activated again, and the vehicle lurched forward a second…

This car has a problem with the emergency brake system activating when there is nothing in any danger zone. We have owned this car for about a year, and when slowly reversing, we have been repeatedly annoyed by the warning lights & sounds going off & emergency brakes locking the wheels. Each time we check the cameras, mirrors and even get out of the car to look, but there was nothing anywhere near that would trigger such an event. This happened 4-5 times over the past year, and we assumed this was just an ultra-sensitive feature which was annoying and startling when it happened, but gener…
