Steering
41 reports1 crash
“The vehicle is making clacking noise when doing any turn (left/right). Took my Prologue to the dealer twice May 22, 2026 and October 2, 2026. On my last visit to the dealer, the advisor confirm is a known issue but no directive have been received from Honda. This time the technician confirmed there is c/v axle noise from the left side. They recommend to replace the driver side c/v axle and they order the axle.”
Electrical system
32 reports
“There is a clicking from the front of the Prologue when I am turning the wheel, generally to the left. It occurs when making a left, backing out of a parking spot mostly. I brought it to dealer #1 and they stated this is a known issue and normal and with out a code there is nothing they can do to fix it. It is currently at dealership #2 waiting to find out if the repair can be fixed. It is also in for electrically issue with the windows.”
Power train
29 reports
“On June 11, 2026, my 2025 Honda Prologue displayed a High Voltage System Alert immediately after I attempted to charge the vehicle. The vehicle would not accept a charge and became inoperable. I brought it to the dealership the same day, and the vehicle has remained there since. The dealership first replaced the charging port, but the vehicle still would not charge. On June 24, 2026, the dealership informed me that the transmission lines from the charging port to the battery needed to be replaced. Since that date, I have not received any updates, repair timeline, or confirmation that the issue is being addressed. The vehicle is currently unusable and cannot be charged. The high‑voltage alert indicates a potential electrical system failure involving the charging system and high‑voltage components, which may pose a safety risk. The defect has left the vehicle inoperable for over a month with no resolution.”
