We have a Clarity EV. It has been great for 4 years. But recently, all of the sudden, we started getting system failure messages on the dash. Different systems, including brakes. And the brake pedal went to the floor. I have read about similar failures online at -??clarity forum-??. Some who posted believe it is a 12-volt battery problem. And Triple A came out and tested it and said the battery is due for replacement Here-??s the thing: my mechanic cleared the codes and the car ran perfectly for 24 hours. Before the failures happened again. I took it to Honda, and they insist that the brake system is the problem. And that it-??s dangerous to drive the way it is. They say a -??brake fuel sensor code-?? recommended replacing a (brake) -??cylinder set-?? for $2495 I decided to have them install a new battery first. And wanted them to -??clear the codes-??. i am not sure they cleared them, cuz the brakes still go to the floorboard. So: It-??s either a battery issue (or something else) causing the error codes. And we are then being told an expensive brake repair has to be done. Or The brake system failed at 37,000 miles. Which should be a recall item Or. it is both Because of other postings with problems similar to mine, i think the car should be recalled because of the brakes
