2022 HONDA INSIGHT
Filed Oct 4, 2026
The center infotainment touchscreen registers inputs on its own when no one is touching it, opening menus, changing selections, and switching screens and radio stations. This distracts the driver while the vehicle is moving and can interfere with the backup camera display and navigation. On October 3, 2026, Safford Honda Arlington (RO #201229) performed a master reset with no fix and told me this is a known issue on 2018–2022 Honda models with no remedy available yet. I have opened a case with…

My vehicle underwent Honda’s fuel-pump safety recall repair at an authorized Honda dealer on April 1, 2025. After the recall repair, the vehicle developed a sensor warning directing me to return to the dealer. On February 17, 2026, the dealer inspected the vehicle. Its repair record states “HIGH CIRCUIT VOLTAGE” at terminal #2 and “FOUND PIN MELTED IN FUEL PUMP ASSEMBLY.” The dealer replaced the complete fuel-pump assembly at no charge. A dealership representative later told me their mechanic…
2021 HONDA INSIGHT
Filed Sep 21, 2026
The Honda infotainment screens have a history of Phantom Touches. I have replaced my infotainment system once under warranty. The problem is that while out in sunlight the vehicle's infotainment system will randomly beep and change screens and functions on its own as bands of sunlight enter via the windshield or side windows. It is extremely distracting and things like switching music souces from blutooth source to radio, cutting in and out, swapping to the default screen saver, vehicle…

I purchased a new 2022 Honda Insight from a dealership. The vehicle began shaking when I was driving and even stopped in the roadway several times. Honda has inspected and attempted to repair the vehicle but multiple people have indicated that the issue cannot be resolved and was sold to me as a faulty vehicle. Honda, specifically, the mediation department ([XXX]), has indicated that they would not be resolving the issue in any way. It is important to note that this occurred regardless of…

There was soot staining the interior of the vehicle, and the windshield was burned and cracked above the hole in the dashboard.
