2018 Honda HR-V complaints

The HR-V is four years old, and in the past month, the LCD display, which shows the driver the current fuel level, current miles per gallon, and, most importantly, the odometer, has intermittently stopped working and gone completely blank while driving (see photo attached). The display sometimes stays off for ten or more minutes before showing gibberish numbers that do not correspond to the proper odometer, temperature, and miler per gallon readings. I reported the incident to the local Honda dealership during my normal tune up, but they were not able to reproduce the issue. There are an abundance of online Honda forums where this same issue is reported. This is an obvious defect with 2018 Honda HR-Vs. This is a safety concern as this problem can lead to the odometer not properly recording the accurate miles driven and may not accurately be showing the driver how much fuel is left. There are no other warning lamps or other symptoms of the problem other than it happens most often when the temperature is below 40 degrees Fahrenheit.

Fuel gauge screen goes out completely and randomly shows up glitches. Serious safety concern because you're unable to determine the fuel you have left in your tank. Also, unable to determine your vehicle mileage and trip mileage. Unable to determine the engine oil life and the maintenance minder.

Paint started peeling 2 months after I bought it from the Honda dealership. I have had 2 appointments with them about it and nothing has been done. No call or email. 6 months into buying the vehicle I was getting onto the highway and my vehicle wasn't excellerating then it picked up. The vehicle does that every month atleast 4 times. Also since I bought this car when I unlocked my doors they lock themselves when I open the door. Takes me 10 tries to get into the car. And if I leave the keys in the car the car will lock it self with the keys in it!

The odometer/gas gauge was shorting out, coming on sometimes and showing partial characters others. It would not come on and stay on as intended. Without the gas gauge it was near impossible to know when the gas had been depleted and I was unable to get the car inpescted without the odometer showing due to the mechanic needing to photograph the mileage for the inspection.

Fuel gauge instrument will sometimes show jumbled letters/numbers or be completely blank. Upon driving for a while it will go back to normal. Not able to recreate on command so the dealership will not help me other than charge me to look at it without guarantee they will fix it since they won’t be able to recreate it. I looked online many people are also complaining about this issue and had to have the instrument cluster replaced. I do not want to pay for someone to just look at it and not fix the issue. The car doesn’t even have 2000 miles on it yet, this has to be a factory issue or something. I am concerned that it will just stop working and that is not safe since I won’t be able to determine the fuel level.

The differential broke. I was unable to accelerate on the road; it froze up. I had to pull over and couldn't drive it. I was just outside of the HOnda dealer when it happened. I took it to the Honda Dealer Service Center in MD and this was their diagnosis.I didn't take it anywhere else. There were no warnings except I heard rattling when I was at a lower speed the same afternoon about 3 hours earlier. Otherwise, I had just completed a 100k service literally 2 weeks beforehand at Honda Service and the Honda Service Center didn't report anything wrong with the car.

Display console does not come on. After driving for about an hour, it comes on. It’s been going on for over a year.

On 8/10/2023, around 9:25 AM, at the parking lot of Jet Propulsion Laboratory, 4800 Oak Grove Drive, Pasadena, CA, I was pulling into a parking spot, moving very slowly. I was about to stop when the car suddenly took off in full speed, went over the concrete barrier toward hilly area covered with shrubs. That impact stopped the car, but half of my car was in the shrubs. It happened so fast that I didn't have a chance to break or anything. The car went into the shrub where nobody or no other car was around. Please see the attached photos. The bumper on the drive side is damaged and the car suffered some scratches and small broken parts. Prior to this incident, we experienced some minor incidents such as : - Car would not start at the first try and we had to try multiple times. We took the car to the dealer we purchased the vehicle and they replaced battery. Even after the replacement of the battery, it occurred couple more times. - Speaker announced to release the parking break when it was released and I was driving the car already. We took the car to the dealer and they ran diagnostics but didn't find anything. - The window on the front driver side gets sticky sometimes if left overnight. We took the car to the dealer and they ran diagnostics but didn't find anything. We took the car to the dealer again this morning (8/11/2023) and talked to the service representative. She looked at our record and we found out some of or complaints were not recorded. The contact stated that t

The contact owns a 2018 Honda HR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 60 MPH, several unknown warning lights illuminated, and the vehicle inadvertently decelerated to 20 MPH. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, and a case was opened; however, no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 95,861.

The contact owns a 2018 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the instrument cluster was randomly flickering off and on and sometimes became inoperable. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. During the failure, the fuel gauge and engine temperature gauge could not be viewed by the driver. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 18,000.

Fuel monitoring systems on dashboard going on and off while driving

Engine suddenly lost power on highway 5 times in last 6 months and would not restart for approximately 12 hours. To lose power at 75 mph on a busy highway risks accidents and injury to driver, passengers, and potentially other drivers on the road. Tow truck drivers and passengers are witnesses to this happening. We have had it towed to the dealer each time and they cannot find any problem. No warning prior to the problem.

1. The dealership assembled a new engine and pulse control module. 2. 1st issue was the car wasn’t in safe condition to drive due to knocking noise. 2nd issue is that the pedal wasn’t working properly as had to pull over to the shoulder and then the car wouldn’t leave from a parked state, brake light was on, and engine overheating. 3rd issue got car back with a smoke/cigarette/burn odor and jittering / stuttering when put in a stopped state transitioning to a moving state. 3. Yes, Bill Page Honda in Falls Church. 4. Yes 5. No warning prior to failure 07/28/22: car experienced loud knocking noise upon being turned on and got it towed to dealership on 07/29/22. Dealership got a new engine for the 1st issue and I picked up the car in September 2022 but upon driving it for the first time since the 1st issue, experienced pedal not functioning to accelerate and engine overheating causing me to get car towed back to dealership on 09/20/22. 10/02/22 picked up the car from the dealership and I noticed a burn / smoke odor left on the car. Let me be clear that neither I nor anyone who has stepped foot in my vehicle smokes so this was quire alarming. Also, while driving it I noticed my car started to jerk / stutter / hesitate whenever it was in a non-moving position transitioning to a moving position. 10/10/22 I returned my car back to the dealership due to the 3rd issue regarding the odor and jittering / stuttering issue. 11/30/22 picked up the car as the dealership informed me the car

Multiple times per week recently, the car will not turn over when starting the car, while all dash lights light up like a Christmas tree. There is no pattern when it just decides to act up…recently 2-3 times a week, in the past 2-3 times a month, it seems random. Sometimes, after it will not start and I leave it alone for some time I.e.: 30-60 minutes, and try to start it again, the car starts right up with no issue. This has left this female driver of this 2018 HR-V stranded numerous times. Several times it happened while driving, the car shuts off at low speed, and won’t start again. It has become a major concern that it can become a death trap. This car has just over 10k miles on it… it’s barely broken in….And with brand new battery just replaced !!!!!!

Flashing light park & red check engine appeared. Car would not move & was jerking & lunging forward. Stopped on road with heavy traffic & very concerned for my safety.

THE PAINT ON THE ROOF IS PEELING AND GROWS BIGGER BY THE DAY...

The contact owns a 2018 Honda HR-V. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start immediately. The contact stated that the vehicle started after several attempts. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle and driving, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and diagnosed as alternator failure. The alternator was replaced; however, the failure persisted. The contact researched online and linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 20V314000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The dealer was notified of the information however, the contact was informed that the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and confirmed that the VIN was not included. The approximate failure mileage was 80,000.

A 27 mph head on collision. Drivers side door does not open. Approximately 6,500.00 worth of damage. Not 1 airbag deployed. Driver was wearing seat belt. The car is approx. 4 yrs old. well maintained. Inspected not long before the accident. I am very concerned at 27mph head on collision the air bags do not deploy, At what speed will they?? Or will they deploy at all? The HR-V has a 5 star rating. I will not even give my honda a 1/2 star at this point

While driving sometimes I would have to step harder than normal on the brakes to get the vehicle to slow down for some reason felt like it wasn't responding well. I feel the fuel pump isn't running properly. When I was at a stop light and even while driving several time I would accelerate and would feel like it wasn't reasoning to me pressing on the gas pedal. Please help get this fixed almost crashed!! Multiple times.

While at a stop light, we heard a very loud popping sound that came from above us. We instantly got out of the car and realized that the sunroof exploded. It seemed out of no where. There was a very large hole in the sunroof and there were pieces of glasswork everywhere.

The paint on my car has started to chip away and will eventually result in rust. I have contacted Honda multiple times and have heard back zero times.

Car started and stopped. After rain a puddle of water only on driver’s side

Leak thru rooftop and water coming thru the passenger side. Affected sensor transmission and brake system red lights turn on. Need to replace sensor transmission and rooftop

WHENEVER I STEP ON THE BRAKES WHILE DRIVING ON A BUMPY ROAD OR ANY TYPE OF BUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL JITTERS HEAVILY FEELING LIKE THE BRAKES GIVE OUT FOR THAT FEW SECONDS. SCARES ME TO THINK THAT THE BRAKES MIGHT GIVE OUT OR STOP WORKING.

I TRIED TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME

WHILE DRIVING I NOTICED A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR. TOOK IT IN AND HONDA CHANGED OUT MY SHOCKS. I WENT IN A FEW MONTHS LATER AND THE EQUIPMENT THEY PUT ON IS NOW LEAKING AND THE LOUD NOISE IS BACK. HONDA NOW REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING WITH THIS PART BEING A 50-60,000 MILE PART AND I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THAT FAR.

DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THE CAR LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT DRIVE OVER 40 MPH. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE TRANSMISSION HAD METAL SHAVING IN THE FLUID AND THE TRANSMISSION WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED.

MY 2018 HONDA HR-V REAR BRAKES ARE WEARING UNEVENLY. IS THIS RELATED TO RECALL #18V777000 ON THE REAR BRAKE CALIPERS WITH INADEQUATE CYLINDER LINING? THE VEHICLE PASSED A NEW YORK STATE INSPECTION IN OCTOBER 2020.

THE PAINT ON MY 2018 HONDA HR-V IS CHIPPING ON ALMOST EVERY SURFACE OF THE VEHICLE. IT STARTED ON THE ROOF, WHICH HAS TURNED INTO ABOUT A 2FT IN LENGTH SURFACE, AND IT IS NOW PEELING ON ALL 4 DOORS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA HR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE PARKING LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS REMAINED ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER POHANKA HONDA LOCATED AT 1772 RITCHIE STATION CT, CAPITOL HEIGHTS, MD 20743 WHO DIAGNOSED THE VEHICLE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURES WERE RELATED TO A PREVIOUS REPAIR PERFORMED UNDER THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V314000 (FUEL SYSTEM). NO FURTHER INFORMATION WAS AVAILABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

RCV'D RECALL NOTICE AT END OF JULY FOR FUEL PUMP MODULE WITH 'OUT OF SPECIFICATION IMPELLERS. OVERTIME, THESE IMPELLERS MAY ABSORB AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FUEL AND DEFORM. A DEFORMED IMPELLER MAY CAUSE THE FUEL PUMP TO STOP WORKING'. DID NOT RECEIVE NOTIFICATION UNTIL THE END OF JULY 2020 WHEN THE RECALL WAS SET IN MAY 2020. DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED VEHICLE WAS UNAWARE OF THE RECALL AND CHECKED IN THE BEGINNING OF AUGUST SAYING THE PARTS WERE NOT YET RELEASED BY HONDA. FINALLY, ON 8/26/20 I CONTACTED CORPORATE WHO INDICATED THE PART HAD BEEN RELEASED A FEW WEEKS PRIOR. DEALER PUT IN A NEW FUEL PUMP WHICH APPARENTLY FIXES THE PROBLEM BUT UPON PICKING IT UP THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE SMELLED VERY STRONG OF GASOLINE. THE HONDA MECHANIC REASSURED IT WAS JUST FUMES FROM THE REPAIR SINCE THEY ACCESS PUMP TO THE FUEL TANK FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE . HOWEVER, ON THE ROUGHLY 20 MILE RIDE HOME THE SMELL OF GASOLINE GOT WORSE SO MUCH THAT WE HAD TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN BECAUSE WE WERE GETTING A HEADACHE AND OVER TAKEN BY THE GASOLINE SMELL. WE STOPPED AT A GAS STATION TO FILL THE VEHICLE TANK WHICH WAS DOWN TO ABOUT 1/4 TANK. WHEN THE GAS ATTENDANT FILLED THE TANK ALL THE GAS STARTED LEAKING OUT FROM UNDER THE CAR. CAR WAS PUSHED AWAY FROM THE PUMP. GAS CONTINUED TO POUR FROM UNDERNEATH AS A STEADY STREAM THEN AFTER ABOUT A HALF HOUR TO A DRIP. VEHICLE WAS TOWED BACK TO DEALER WHO THE NEXT DAY THOUGHT THE WING NUT TO HOLD THE PUMP GASKET LOOSENED AND ASSURED IT WAS FIXED. THEY FILLED THE T

VIN: [XXX] YEAR: 2018 MAKE: HONDA MODEL: HR-V WHILE DRIVING THROUGH TOWN AT AROUND 35 MPH, THE CAR STARTED DOING A PULSATING SENSATION. AS WE GOT UP TO HIGHWAY SPEED AND DRIVING FROM (08/08/2020), BOISE, IDAHO TO BELLEVUE WASHINGTON THE "ORANGE LIGHT" CAME ON AND STARTED FLASHING AND LOST ALL POWER. PULLED OVER "SAFELY" ON THE SIDE OFF THE ROAD TO LET THE ENGINE COOL DOWN FOR ABOUT 1 HOUR. THERE WAS NO LIGHT THAT CAME ON INDICATING THAT THE ENGINE WAS OVERHEATING. (08/10/2020) HONDA OF KIRKLAND HAS HAD THE HRV FOR 1 WEEK NOW, AND THEY SAY THAT THEY CANNOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR "NO CODES". WE ASKED THE "SERVICE ADVISOR THAT WORKS FOR HONDA OF KIRKLAND" IF IT IS SAFE AND OKAY TO DRIVE THE CAR, HE TOLD US IT IS SAFE AND OKAY TO DRIVE THE HRV. WE PICKED UP THE CAR, AND AGAIN WE FILL THE SAME PULSATION/HESITATION ISSUE AS BEFORE. THEY STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANY CODES, EVEN THOUGH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS FLASHING WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS DARK IN COLOR, AND TO ONLY CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION FLUID ONLY WHEN THE CARS COMPUTER MAINTENANCE INDICATOR SAYS TO. (NOTE THE MAINTENANCE INDICATOR NEVER CAME ON INDICATING TO SERVICE THE TRANSMISSION, BASED OFF THE CODE THAT WOULD COME ON THE DASH). INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA HR-V. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 20V314000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. BAY RIDGE HONDA (8801 4TH AVE, BROOKLYN, NY 11209) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

THE CV TRANSMISSION ON MY 2018 HR-V EXHIBITS AN OSCILLATORY INCREASING AND DECREASING SPEED BEHAVIOR AT AROUND 2500 ENGINE RPM WHEN UNDER MINIMAL LOAD, I.E.; GOING UP A SMALL HILL. THIS IS PROMINENT ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN GOING UP A VERY SLIGHT GRADE UNDER STEADY STATE THROTTLE, BUT ALSO NOTICEABLE AT LOW SPEED, LIKE 15 MPH, WHEN GOING UP A LITTLE BIT STEEPER HILL, LIKE MY DRIVEWAY. I HAD COMPLAINED REPEATEDLY TO HONDA DEALERS AND THE FACTORY ABOUT THIS, BUT THE TECHS WERE JUST DRIVING THE VEHICLE AROUND THE NEIGHBORHOOD AND DIDN'T NOTICE THE ISSUE BECAUSE THEY WEREN'T IN THE REGIME WHERE IT HAPPENS. THIS WILL CAUSE EXCESSIVE WEAR IN THE TRANSMISSION COMPONENTS DUE TO THE SLIDING OF THE CONNECTING CHAIN ACROSS THE VARIABLE DIAMETER DRUMS IT RIDES ON, EVENTUALLY LEADING TO PREMATURE TRANSMISSION FAILURE WHICH CAN EASILY BE A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FROM MULTIPLE CONSIDERATIONS. THE CASE NUMBER THAT AMERICAN HONDA GENERATED FOR THIS TRANSMISSION "HUNTING" ISSUE WAS 09398275 REPORTED TO HONDA ON 3/5/19 (I USED THAT DATE BELOW BECAUSE THE CONDITION HAS BEEN CONSTANT WITH NO SPECIFIC FAILURE POINT)

TPMS LIGHT COMES ON FOR A FEW SECONDS AFTER THE CAR TURNS ON. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE TIRES OR ROTATED OR REPLACED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES BUT ALL THEY DO IS RESET IT BUT THAT NEVER SOLVES THE PROBLEM. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING ON AND OFF FOR OVER A YEAR

AT AROUND 55K MILES I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR BUCKED TWICE AND THEN SWITCHED INTO NEUTRAL, I PULLED OVER AND TURNED THE CAR OFF THEN ON AGAIN AND ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH STAYED ON BUT I COULD SWITCH GEARS, I CALLED HONDA THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN AND THEY SAID IT WAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE PARKING BRAKE SENSOR AND PULLEY SYSTEM, THEY REPLACED IT AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. NOW 4 MONTHS LATER AT AROUND 65K MILES I'M DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AGAIN AND MY CAR JUST STARTS REVVING LIKE CRAZY AND SWITCHES INTO NEUTRAL. I PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AGAIN, TURN THE CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON AND ALL THE LIGHTS STAY LIT UP AGAIN. I CALL HONDA AND THEY SAY TO BRING IT IN AGAIN. THIS TIME THEY TELL ME METAL SHAVINGS GOT INTO THE TRANSMISSION (DUE TO THE SAME PARTS THAT WERE JUST REPLACED) BUT THAT I AM NOW NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND WILL HAVE TO PAY 40% OF THE COST TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION ON MY CAR THAT IS JUST OVER 2 YRS OLD. I LOOKED IT UP AND THIS IS SUCH A COMMON ISSUE THAT THEY HAVE EVEN CHANGED THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THE NEWER MODELS AND WHEN THEY REPLACE MY TRANSMISSION THEY WILL BE PUTTING THE NEWER VERSION IN. BUT THEY STILL DON'T WANT TO RECOGNIZE THAT IT IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR ITSELF AND WANT ME TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA HR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE DRIVER WAS SHIFTING THE GEAR SHIFTER TO PARK, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CRASH INTO A POLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO BILLION AUTO - HONDA IN IOWA CITY (2641 MORMON TREK BLVD, IOWA CITY, IA 52240) WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT OF THE BODY REPAIR OF THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, WAS UNABLE TOP DIAGNOSE THE DEFECT FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE TO THE CONTACT. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,116.

I FILLED OUT THIS FORM AND TRIED TO SUBMIT, BUT SAW AN ERROR ACCORDING TO YOUR SYSTEM. I HAVE A PAINT PROBLEM WITH MY 2018 HONDA HRV. I SEE ONLINE THAT THERE ARE PAINT PROBLEMS WITH THE 2018 HRV, FIT, & ACCORD. THE RECALL THAT I SAW WAS FOR A DIFFERENT COLOR THAN MY VEHICLE. WHAT I ALSO SAW WAS THAT THE MANUFACTURER PUT TOO THIN OF A CLEAR COAT ON THE VEHICLES. THE DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING THAT MY PROBLEM IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE IT IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE...TREE SAP OR BIRD DROPPINGS, WHICH IS THE OUT THAT HAS BEEN GIVEN TO THEM. GUESSING THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAS TOLD THEM TO USE THIS TO DISALLOW CLAIMS. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT. I HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT HAS DONE THIS BECAUSE OF BIRD DROPPINGS OR TREE SAP. I HAVE ONLY HAD ONE VEHICLE THAT A MAKER VOLUNTEERED TO FIX... THAT WAS A TOYOTA VEHICLE. AL, OF THE REST OF THE MANUFACTURERS WANT TO MAKE YOU TAKE THEM TO COURT TO GET RESOLVE. I AM GIVING AN ESTIMATE OF THE TIME/MILEAGE OF THE NOTICE OF THE PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH 4,500 MILES IN IT IN MARCH 2019. I STARTED DRIVING IT IN MID APRIL ON HIGHWAY I 71, SINCE I HAVE TO COMMUTE TO MY WORK EVERYDAY FROM MILE 169 TO 119. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 14,000 AND HAD TO GET IT SERVICED AND THE TIRES WERE ROTATED TWO DAYS BEFORE THE INCIDENT. THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT WAS JULY 26TH 2019. I WAS DRIVING IN I 71 IN THE CENTRAL LANE WHEN THE SIGN OF LOW PRESSURE IN TIRES AND THEN I LOST CONTROL OF MY CAR, I TRIED TO USE THE BREAKS WHICH MADE IT EVEN MORE UNSTEADY. WITHOUT USING BREAKS, I MADE MY WAY TO THE RIGHT LANE AS BEST AS POSSIBLE AND WAITED UNTIL THE VEHICLE STOPPED BY ITSELF. WHEN THE SPEED WAS SLOW ENOUGH, I PULLED OVER TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER AND WAIT UNTIL IT COMPLETELY STOPPED. THIS WAS IN MILE 140.0 GOING SOUTH. AS SOON AS I PARKED TWO MORE CARS STOPPED IN ORDER TO FIGURE OUT IF I WAS OK. AND BOTH MENTIONED THAT MY TIRE FLEW AWAY AND HIT THEIR CARS, BUT DID NOT DAMAGE THEM. WHEN I STEPPED OUT OF MY VEHICLE I NOTICED THAT I WAS MISSING THE FRONT RIGHT TIRE (PASSENGER SIDE) TIRE COMPLETELY BUT THE RIM WAS INTACT SINCE PART OF THE RUBBER OF THE TIRE REMAINED. TIRE WAS MICHELIN RADIAL X TUBELESS M+S 215/55R17. I MADE A COMPLAINT TO MICHELIN WHICH ONLY WERE WILLING TO PAY 75% FOR A NEW TIRE. MY FINAL DECISION WAS TO CHANGE ALL THE TIRES AND SWITCH TO GOODYEAR BRAND SINCE MICHELIN COULD NOT WARRANTY THE QUALITY OF THEIR PRODUCTS AND WILL NOT ASSURE THAT THE OTHER 3 TIRES WERE NOT DEFECTIVE

I WAS DRIVING AT AROUND 40 MPH AND PREPARING TO STOP AT THE STOPLIGHT. HOWEVER, UPON GRADUALLY PRESSING ON MY BRAKES, MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP. INSTEAD, IT MADE LOUD NOISES WHILE STILL RUNNING. I HAD TO PRESS IT DOWN ALL THE WAY ONE OR TWO MORE TIMES FOR MY CAR TO ACTUALLY STOP. ONLY THEN WOULD IT STOP ABRUPTLY. I NOTICED MY MAKE WAS BEING RECALLED FOR BRAKE ISSUES, HOWEVER, MY SPECIFIC VIN [XXX] WAS NOT MARKED FOR RECALL. I WOULD LIKE FOR MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THIS AS THIS IS A VERY CONCERNING ISSUE AND I RELY ON MY CAR HEAVILY FOR WORK AND SERVICE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND HOPE TO HEAR FROM YOU SOON.
