Intermittently when I come to a stop, my vehicle does not restart from the auto start stop. When I mentioned this to the Honda dealer, they said my battery was bad and needed to be replaced. I replaced it in the problem still persists. I drive on route [XXX] from [XXX] to [XXX] daily for work and this has happened a couple times in rush-hour traffic. I’ve gotten a video of this and I have showed the dealership and they are not covering this under a powertrain warranty. My understanding there is an investigation, and Honda is aware of these issues. Investigation number is.EA25004.

The restart function on this vehicle doesn’t work. Will leave you stalled in traffic. Multiple events in this vehicle for me. Problem recognized for older models but not 24-25 yet. Same exact issue though

There’s been a constant system failure with the starter, which works intermittently. It has a sluggish turnover. There have been a lot of reported problems with this starter, which causes system failure in the vehicle.

Idle stop start, in traffic stopped, engine dies. Took a few minutes with traffic backed up behind me. Very dangerous..

The starter motor suffers from electrical heat-soak. When the engine is fully warm, the vehicle fails to restart manually. This leaves the vehicle stranded and vulnerable at gas stations, intersections, or in heavy traffic conditions after the vehicle is shut off. The manufacturer's dealership cannot reproduce it because they only test the battery cold, leaving a known defect unaddressed on a vehicle still under factory bumper-to-bumper warranty. This starter happening occasionally but now anytime it is hot it fails to restart or restarts very slow.
