I had three warning lights come on: brake system, electronic break, and E brake. I was told at the dealership that the factory warranty ended less then two weeks ago and thus neither the diagnostics nor any of the repairs would be covered by the warranty. Even though it is obviously a factory defect. Also after a little research it became very obvious that it is a very common occurrence among HRV-??s that seems to be happening anywhere from weeks to years after purchase.

While driving on the interstate all dashboard lights come on including parking brake. After turning engine off, the lights go off and come back on after 5 minutes of driving again. If parking brake is engaged when parked, it is not releasable. Changed battery with Honda battery, issue resolved. 6 months later driving down the interstate and the same thing happens again but this time the door ajar lights and sounds are on and the overhead light is coming on and off while I am driving at night. This is a known issue amongst 2019 hrv's. dealership does not know what will resolve the issue. They provide coded that says it will be the start of the resolution and code can be ran after these items are fixed to fix the remaining items that might be causing it. $2600 for a not even 3 year old car to be fixed for a known issue"??" hrv forums have many people that have spent thousands and the issue is still not resolved. Lights coming on in the car on the road at night are a safety issue. This definitely needs to be addressed. No issues with the vehicle prior and no warning that anything is wrong.

Digital gauge including odometer and fuel gauge randomly blanks out for periods of time causing you not to know how much fuel is in the vehicle while driving. This seems to be a safety concern. I reported it to american Honda but they advised there is no recall at this time. This is a widely known concern and happens on a daily basis.

The dash gauge including the fuel gauge blanks out display intermittently in cooler weather while driving. Seems like a safety concern since when this happens the fuel gauge reads blank. There are multiple complaints online from people talking about the same concern.

Mileage regulator on dashboard initially started flickering. This occurred 3 or 4 times. Then recently utcstarted flickering and went blank. Thus I could not tell how man miles I had driven or how many miles I had until next refill. This continued and I took a short video. Then continued to drive to dealership where it did the same thing. However, mechanic couldn't duplicate it, but saw my video. It was determined that I needed a new mileage regulator which is on back order. Car under warranty with less than 5,000 miles. This problem occurred when driving on the road or while ccx waiting for food thru a drive in.

Since the purchase of the vehicle, three indicator lights have gone on and off approximately 20 times and the vehicle is in the dealer's service department now for the third time to try and remedy the issue. The indicator lights are: The yellow check engine light, the yellow electronic parking brake symbol ((P)) and a red flashing "park" light. On the second visit, the oxygen sensor was replaced. It has been replaced again during this, the third visit, a month later and is still in the shop to ensure the lights do not go on in my possession. I am not confident the oxygen sensor is the root of the issue and the dealer has yet to fully resolve the issue.
