Problem overview

Some Honda CR-V owners report experiencing sensor malfunctions indicated by flashing errors related to safety device failure, which may stem from issues with the multi-purpose camera or radar system. These problems can necessitate a consultation with a Honda dealership for accurate diagnosis and repair. In certain instances, owners have found that rebooting the system by pressing and holding the audio power touch button for 10 seconds can resolve glitches. However, if the malfunction continues, professional technicians at the dealership may need to perform software updates or replace defective components, such as the camera. It is crucial to address these sensor issues promptly to ensure the effective operation of Honda Sensing driver assistance technology and maintain road safety.
