An official CAA Japan notice concerns Passenger Cars (Honda Accord Hybrid and Other Model) - Repair. Due to a defect in the forward obstacle collision mitigation control system. ■Defective part (component name): Forward obstacle collision mitigation control system. ■Condition and cause of the structure, equipment, or performance considered noncompliant with standards: In vehicles equipped with the forward obstacle collision mitigation control system (Collision Mitigation Braking System), the millimeter-wave radar obstacle detection program is inappropriate. When there are protective barriers along the road shoulder, median strip, or similar locations, and the distance to the vehicle ahead increases, the system may, in rare cases, mistakenly interpret the received millimeter-wave information as an obstacle ahead. As a result, even when there is no possibility of a collision, a warning may appear on the multi-information display and a warning sound may be emitted, and unexpected sudden braking may occur. Published 2015-05-14.
What to do now
(Recall)3566 ■Corrective measures: On all vehicles, rewrite the obstacle detection program of the forward obstacle collision mitigation control system with a corrective program.
