Typical lane departure system symptoms owners report

  • Multiple dashboard warning lights, including road departure mitigation and collision mitigation alerts, illuminate together and sometimes force the vehicle to slow down in traffic on its own.
  • Honda Sensing features, including lane keep assist and cruise control, disable themselves during moderate rain or snow even though owners say the radar and camera are unobstructed.
  • Warning lights and system errors come on intermittently at first, then become constant, disabling lane keep assist, adaptive cruise control, and automatic braking at the same time.
  • Owners report the warnings clear temporarily after a dealer software update or battery disconnect, but the underlying lane departure and collision system issue returns.
  • Some drivers describe the vehicle abruptly slowing or braking on its own at low speeds, such as around 30 mph, while road departure and brake warning lights flash.
