I was driving about 70mph on the highway west bound in the morning, no direct sunlight, it was an overcast day. i had the adaptive cruise control on. for no reason at all my car slammed on the brakes, did a moderate nose dive and locked my seat belt. no warning what so ever. there was not another car for at least a 1/4 to 1/2 mile in front of me. unfortunately there were cars behind me. i quickly disengaged the adaptive cruise control and floored the gas, avoiding an accident from the rear. i had this identical problem with a 2016 honda civic touring, and every time i reported it, the dealership would blame sunlight, even if there was none when it happened. something needs to be done about this.

On 3 separate occasions, the honda hard braked by itself, almost causing an accident. if i didn't have my seat belt on, i would have been thrown through the windshield. there were no other cars around, or i could have been easily rear-ended by another vehicle. the car was moving, when it suddenly stopped by itself very abruptly and very hard. this happened on a small street with no other cars present.
I was pulling my honda crv into a short driveway to park in front of a closed garage door. my speed was less than 5 mph. as i was in the driveway within 5-6 feet of the closed garage door, the engine revved and car suddenly accelerated. i could no longer feel the accelerator directly under my foot and applying the brake did nothing to stop the car. acceleration continued, car went through garage door and crashed into concrete wall at the back of the garage. not sure what speed the car was traveling when crash occurred. given the short distance, maybe 20-30 mph. airbags deployed. no issue with floor mats or other objects near the accelerator.
On a city street, after slow acceleration after leaving a stop sign,with no cars in front of me, the collision avoidance system suddenly engaged and hard braked the car. luckily no one was behind me or i fear i might have been rear-ended! also i am concerned that honda has not acknowledged a problem with the earthdream turbo 1.5 engine causing gasoline to enter the oil. i live in maryland, usa and honda has done recalls in china and now canada to address this issue as well as poor heating, but not in the usa. i am deeply concerned that this will cause engine damage in the future long after the warranty has expired and honda will not accept liability! i am also concerned that there has been no recall to address problems with the gear shift lever. many owners are reporting that the button you must push in to shift into or out of park will break without warning, preventing shifting gears.
