Title: Safety Recall
Post by: IanG on September 09, 2022, 10:57:56 PM
I received a letter from Honda today regarding a safety recall relating to the front camera not starting up correctly.
Will book in at Honda dealer next week, hopefully when my new seat base is fitted, which has finally arrived.
Anyone else received the recall letter? Said it affects some Jazz in 21/22 model year.

My Mk4 has just had first service done and I was told the safety recall was for the camera not being able to read Kilometres in Europe.

That  sounds like the sort of nonsense a salesman might tell you, especially if they are having to delay appointments.     Mine worked fine  set to kilometers.      Being a right hand drive I thought it might get confused by being on the 'wrong' side of the road  (Jazzik  -  :P )  but I didnt notice any difference in performance.

Driving on the right (yes... RIGHT  ;)) side of the road we covered only 10,000 km in a year.
I now understand why so little: our camera (according to Mr Snazzy Jazz's dealer) was not able to read kilometers and in fact we must have covered 10,000 miles (more than 16,000 km)...

One symptom is probably RDMS keeping quiet on country lanes due to being unable to see where the vehicle is going.

[One symptom is probably RDMS keeping quiet on country lanes due to being unable to see where the vehicle is going.

If that was the case, I would be quite happy to refuse the update, ;D ;D
But of course we don't know the full extent of the update details, so probably best to accept it.

Yes it was a bit of a shock  clocking up 10000km on the odometer, when back in the uk it was only 6200 miles   ;)    On my old Yaris when changing the digital speedometer  from mph to kph  the odometer stayed on miles.. Bit of a nuisance when map reading etc.   I always keep a map in the car  as a backup to satnav.  Its almost guaranteed that the place I want is on the turn of a page.

I havnt received my letter yet, and I think I know why. Just booked in for my first service due on 6 October. 
First available date to have the recall done at the same time  was  well into  November  :o   The dealer said
 its 'because it takes all day'  .

But booking just a service without the recall  was no problem with a choice of dates and times in early October.

I have decided to delay the recall for a while and just gone for the service as I dont want my travel plans for November  disrupted. 

  The dealer said  "No problem, its not a safety recall".       Not sure I totally agree , but I have not noticed any problem and I have never relied on it completely.  And as some have pointed out I have managed many years without it, including 1 year when I assumed I had it when sometimes I might not have.  So a few  weeks delay  is no great biggie.

Letter came today. Software update done 12 days ago. RDMS improved (I think)in urban areas but apart from that no noticeable difference. As it was about camera start up, maybe there have been instances of failure of the camera system, effectively stopping Honda Sensing from working.

Post by: Jayt43 on September 12, 2022, 06:30:08 PM
Yes, at least 3 times I've had LKAS fail to work properly. Pulling over and restarting the vehicle immediately sorted the issue. So it's an intermittent fault where the camera system simply doesn't pick up the white lines when engaged.

No, problems with the collision mitigation system for all Jazz, irrespectively from the hand drive.

Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Lord Voltermore on September 17, 2022, 09:47:49 AM
I think this is salesman nonsense  trying to minimise anxiety . My  local dealership has a back log of updates and cant do mine until at least November. (I'm surprised they have sold so many Jazz  ;) ) 

I've driven my (RHD -UK)   Jazz in Eastern Europe   (Bulgaria ,Romania, Hungary , plus Greece and  various other EU countries.)    And I have driven other cars in many other non eu countries such as Serbia,Northern Macedonia  ,Bosnia-Herz, Montenegro.   For the most part the signs are frequently displayed and  exactly the same design as the rest of Europe  and my car had no problem reading them.  If they are there. 

Many countries use alternative methods of denoting where the urban speed limit applies such as a town sign and may not display speed limit roundels.Making the system somewhat redundant.  .
(Jazzik has shown the signs used in Poland on a recent post)   

No update is going to allow the system to read signs that are not there.
 I suppose there might be a few signs where it struggles  Occasionally ,although of the same basic design a no overtaking  sign might show car outlines that look  like they date from the 1930's.  .

  There is  a bridge near me  in England that still displays a sign "No charabancs".   I dont suppose it will read that either - fortunately the Jazz is not a Charabanc.  ;D  Whats the betting  Jacob Reese -Mogg will want to replace the international Bus symbol  and revert to  these signs from the 1920's.
 ;D
That said ,my car has displayed conditional speed limits (if its snowing) where there was no actual  sign displayed .I assume a few are programmed in as gps coordinates. Its just possible they are updating these.    But I dont think thats what the recall is all about. I  think you are being fed bovine droppings.

Yep, used that and it shows I'm due a recall but the dealer said no a few weeks ago.

Not fussed, happy to wait. I won't be chasing them.

The bottom line here seems to be we are in extreme danger because we need to use our eyes,  like we used to do, and not rely on the car to stop us hitting something or speeding............words fail me.

I don't appear to have a recall on the Honda site, but my 21 E has M as the 10th character of the VIN which is 2021 according to the decoder site I found, but my Jazz has P as the year which the decoder said was 2023!!

Has anyone noticed a change to the sensitivity of RDMS since the update? I ask because my wife, who hardly ever used to get RDMS 'prompts', now gets them much more frequently. Just passing parked cars on an urban road where you have to cross the centre dotted line now gives a 'prompt'.

I never get them because I always turn the stupid system off before I drive anywhere.

I always got such a "prompt" in that situation. Before the update, and also now, after the update. That's exactly what RDMS is supposed to do.
However, it is easy to avoid such a "prompt": Just indicate before crossing the line.... A good idea anyway, not only to prevent that prompt....
Title: Re: Safety Recall

Not only that situation. Cut a corner to smooth the drive and off it goes.

Roundabout on a dual carriageway. You have nothing behind, you can see all exits, no other cars. You are going straight on. Do you stay in lane, which means slowing down more, or do you cut the roundabout corner to straighten your line and allow sooner acceleration ?

Not sure how a system is expected to know whether you are deliberately straightening bends, or having a snooze. Unless you indicate.

Even a system that monitors your eye  pupil activity can be fooled.   You can lose concentration with your eyes open.   My Daughters Greyound often sleeps with her eyes open . Not that the dog drives much.  too young and impetuous  ;D
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Kremmen on September 23, 2022, 02:29:36 PM
So if you're going straight on what do you indicate ?

I really must stop posting about the RDMS that goes against experienced driver logic. Especially as I turn it off so it never wiggles the steering when I deliberately cross a white line to straighten curves. Or when it does the same over some road repairs.

I don't know about you, but in my urban driving I would be indicating every few seconds as I weave in and out of the parked cars and the clear spaces in between. I'm sure following drivers would wonder why I kept flicking my indicator on and off all the time for no apparent reason.

My car had its first service yesterday. At just over a year my mileage was 10020.

The recall update is supposed to have been carried out;  I detect no difference.

I was hoping that when using ACC* the car would no longer get spooked by vehicles parked off the road on the left while driving through rght hand bends. No change there! I still had to dab the accelerator to get her to gee-up. Maybe a sugar lump suspended on a string in front of her nose would help.

* I like ACC

You are concerned about what following drivers think of you?!  :P

Anyway, I believe you can minimise the amount of nudge you get from the car when crossing centre lines. Or you could just steer through it;  it's not that strong is it?
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Kremmen on September 23, 2022, 05:04:15 PM
Not strong but very annoying.

I do occasionally forget to turn it off and the first wobble it's off. Fortunately I know the keypresses off heart and I can do it on the move.

The online owners manual page 448 says ,among others, do not use ACC  "On roads with sharp turns".     Maybe  bends sharp enough to pick  up cars parked on the verge   amounts to 'sharp turns'.

   I only use mine on motorways and dual carriageways,   and occasionally on a long straight single carriageway with few hazards.  I wouldnt use it on a road with bends, parked cars etc.  There is too much going on requiring driver control of speed.  Also even on a slight bend  a car (and motorcycle ) is more stable if you bear in mind the benefits of  the 'slow in-fast  out' technique.   I'm not saying speed up as such ,just keep the car better poised by subtle throttle control .   ACC will simply keep to its preset speed without reference to what gives optimum stability and control.

While using ACC I tend to use the speed control on the wheel to adjust to road conditions. My foot is always ready to brake or accelerate. On a blind bend I'll dab the brake to take the car out of ACC and dab the accelerator to restore ACC when it's safe.

I booked a service on 13 September online, and before that date found out from the internet about the recall. When the dealer phoned just before that date to remind me about the service, I mentioned the recall, and they said it could be included - but only if I shifted the service date to 14 October. As the service was due under the warranty before that, I declined the opportunity and had the service done on 13 September anyway.
That normal service was completed by about 1pm and because of that, the dealer initially looked to get the recall work fitted in on my car that afternoon and done by the 5pm closing time, but as was explained to me when I arrived to collect the car, that had proved impossible because the reprogramming on another Jazz for the recall had crashed, and they had had to start that one again. That is why the work is said to need 2.5 hours but you are asked to leave it for longer.
On asking when I could now have the recall work done separately, the date had become much later as letters had been received by lots of people the day before. The earliest available was now mid-December. It is now booked for Wednesday 28 December.

I  expect with due diligence  you can safely control speed  using ACC in this way.  But much as I am in favour of these driver aids  I would have thought you are having to learn a whole new set of speed control skills,with constant twiddling of knobs and adjustments  There comes a point when its easier to switch ACC off and do it  the 'old fashioned' way with throttle and brakes ?  You dont even have the added 'complication' of having to be in the right gear.  We may have a different opinion on when this becomes necessary.

Just had my Safety Recall done, originally told 2 - 4hrs, which was just acceptable , ( was going to shop, eat and drink coffee with wife ! )  but when I arrived the time had increased to 7 hrs. After some discussion! with the  Service Manager they offered a loan car - 2021 Civic 1.0 Vtec Turbo, 3 cylinder DOHC which meant we could go home until they finished the S/W update.
Interestingly,  it made me realise  how smooth and comfortable my Crosstar  is, it's  a long time since I've driven a normal  Auto ICE as I've had Toyota  and Honda hybrids for  17years.
By the way, I have to admit I had to ask the  Service Receptionist how to start the Civic as I just placed the key in a cup holder and searched for a Start button!  After she showed me that the Key had to be placed in the steering lock/ignition switch I had still forgotten that the key had to be turned to actually  start the  ICE!,

Also, the Civic seats seemed very low compared to the Crosstar and no good for someone active but over 70.

The Jazz is a very good, economical car -, (Crosstar, ~10,250miles, ~63mpg Ave. over 2 years.!

I had occasion to drive my old 58 plate Mk2 Jazz the other weekend. I've spent over a year driving the Mk4 and was used to the automatic transmission, so my use of the manual transmission caused a bit of bunny hops to start with. But the thing that really hit me was how refined my Mk4 was in comparison.

Sorry, my memory was playing up. A touch on the Res/+ button on the steering wheel does the job.

I hope I'm correct this time: While using ACC when the car brings itself to a standstill, in traffic for instance, a touch on the accelerator gets the car moving again without loosing ACC.

As well as software I wonder if a recalibration is required ?

I have heard that this calibration can take quite some time :

https://www.autoglass.co.uk/glass-repair-and-replacement/windscreen-recalibration/

Reminded me of a post about an early 10G Civic :

Quote
SR Calibration Report

At last after 5 weeks off the road I have my SR back in working order. The calibration tool arrived at my dealers in a big box 3 metres long. It had to be assembled before it could be used.

When doing the calibration it needed over 25 yards of space in front of the car where nothing moved for the whole time of the calibration. (This is because of the Adaptive Cruise Control and Forward Collision Warning system). The dealer's car park had to be sealed off for the 5 (yes Five) hours it took to calibrate the car. After calibration was finished all error lights went out and everything worked OK.

It was suggested by the dealer that the car when built had not been calibrated properly but would now be reliable

Went for the service - all done at the same time - but they did have it a few hours longer - but that didnt matter - all done same time. Simples.

I need to travel to a choice of three other towns, all too far to conveniently drop the car off , go home then return. I dont mind killing 3 hours or so  in town for a normal service (one is a popular tourist destination)   but  much longer than this makes it a whole new ball game of inconvenience.

Why not an IT person with a laptop  who comes to you at home/work ? Saves them having to use trained  mechanics and taking up workshop space.  Or having to provide courtesy cars, or picking up and dropping off.

I have a suspicion it's not just a software change but a recalibration that needs a dealer forecourt.

There was no mileage recorded on my trip meter so all done on site.

Yes, no mileage involved if it's the same calibration as the 10G Civic.

my Crosstar had a few miles put on it during the safety recall.  ive found out for the first time that they dont service the car on site.  they book you in at what looks like a normal car dealership, but they dont have any service facility at this location.  so they then drive the car to the service facility, which is about a mile away.  this was never explained before and I dont know why I didnt twig  :o. not that its makes a great deal of difference particularly - it was just that after the safety recall fix, my infotainment didnt work properly, and when I phoned, they asked me to bring the car directly to this different location.

My local Toyota dealer also has separate VW, Skoda ,and Kia showrooms within a couple of hundred yards of each other on the same industrial estate.  This is quite common.   .  I think the Toyota showroom has a tiny workshop on site, not much bigger than a domestic double garage,  but anything major must be done elsewhere.  In fact my current Honda dealer seemed to be mostly showroom, not much workshop.  They also operate  main dealerships for other makes nearby.

Hi Ian, yes, I had the same Recall letter! I’ve also got the same ripping seat! I went to the Dealer I bought it off ( Cheshire Oaks Honda) part of the Holdcroft group, they inspected the seat base and submitted the report to Honda, a few weeks later, Honda Warranty dept rung me to tell me the ripping seat is “ Wear and tear” According to the Service managers report!! I couldn’t believe it, it’s a 70 reg with 10,000 miles on it! I am absolutely furious, I’ve owned loads of cars/ estates/ vans over the years,” even run businesses out of them and not one had a ripping seat, ever! Who was your Dealer? And did they recommend to Honda that they replace the seat base? Many Thanks

I would consider the Small Claims process through the courts.  At least send a letter to Honda stating that an unsatisfactory response will result in you taking it to court.  I took Ford to court over their body warranty, and they didn't turn up; I got full payment within two weeks.  Thereafter (dodgy body quality) I never had them refuse a claim.

My seat is fine at the moment but if it starts and is not replaced under warranty then I have 'Which? Legal' behind me. Been a member for years.

There does seem to be a pattern developing here after 2 years ownership.

I noted with interest the post about the latest Crosstar seat side being redesigned to avoid the sharp solid plastic part.

I had no letter for the recall but was notified of it when I booked my Jazz EX 2021 in for its first service. The garage had it all day and couldn’t get the cars computer to accept the recall software modification. They contacted Honda and now have told me they need the car for 3 days!

I've still not been contacted but considering I 'think' I only have CMBS in action I'm in no rush.

I don't use - RDMS, ACC or LKAS, what else uses the camera ?

Has anyone with a MY22 been recalled yet ?

I got my letter a couple of days ago,

I didn't read all the posts, anyway it seems that the time of this "repair" is different between countries, in UK is 2.5 hours, here in Italy is 4 hours: it sounds like very strange :)
Anyway I'll go at the end of the month to do the recall.

I was told they'd need the car all day and the earliest they could do it was 29th November. I didn't want to postpone the service until then so two trips now required. I still don't know what's wrong with the camera, seems fine to me.

I think the 2.5 hours is the minimum provided the dealer starts the job immediately and there are no mishaps. When I visited my dealer a couple of weeks ago I was told that sometimes the update fails so they have to start again.  >:(

 When having the update done, I was told the time taken for the update depends upon how many Dealers are accessing the Honda servers at that time.

Mine took just over 4 hours.

My MY22 was due it's first service. While booking it in I mumbled something about the recall. The receptionist confirmed that the car would get the software update when it came in. So, no actual message to advise me about the work.

I discovered yesterday that I could get my Android phone, (Motorola G9) to connect wirelessly. I have managed to do that only once before but I'm hoping that the software update has addressed the wireless connection to Android problem.
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Kremmen on October 11, 2022, 04:46:32 PM
Funny you mention Android and wireless.

I've been monitoring since it happened with a view to posting later.

I've had very few problems with my Samsung S10 for over a year. The only issue is the occasional time it took over a minute to connect.

A couple of weeks ago however it came up with 'device incompatible'. I rebooted the phone and powered down and up the headunit. I got the same message but this time it took my phone off the headunit connected phones display leaving just the Connect a Phone option. I went into my phone and unpaired Honda HFT then went through the re-pair.

As soon as it paired it instantly fired up Android Auto and into Google Maps. Since then I've used the car about 10 times and the Android Auto wireless connection has been under ~15 secs.

I checked my phone and I did have a Android Auto update a few days before the issue, along with updates to Google Maps and Google itself.

The other thing I've noticed, but I may be dreaming, is that I'm sure, previously, when AA connected I had 2 of the AA chevrons in the phones top notification area. I now have 3 chevrons when connected.

I don't have telemetry activated so I can't see the headunit changing.
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Neil Ives on October 11, 2022, 06:12:09 PM
I checked the version of AA I have on my phone. It showed 8.0.623354. I then checked Google store for updates. An update was offered so I installed version 8.1.626474. I will be keeping fingers crossed that the latest version also connects to the car wirelessly  ::)

Update:
I just went and tested the update to AA in the car.
I needed to delete and rediscover my phone using Bluetooth then connect it using the USB cable before the car accepted the phone wirelessly. Seems to be OK.
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Kremmen on October 12, 2022, 05:15:14 AM
I have never connected my phone via the USB cable. The pairing has worked flawlessly.

My AA is 8.1.626474-release like yours.

That 15 secs includes the time to get the "Start" screen. Once that appears AA is almost instant now, within a few secs.

Hopefully it lasts and doesn't drift back to closer to the minute it was before.
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Hicardo on October 13, 2022, 09:08:39 AM
Interesting, I didnt even know it connected wirelessly to AA!  I'm using a USB cable and I dont find it cumbersome, except that it does take quite a long time to bring up google maps on first connection in the day, after that it quick.  I'll think about giving the wireless connection a go - with a bit of trepidation  :o
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Neil Ives on October 13, 2022, 09:42:22 AM
This is off topic. Sorry Admin.
Using AA wirelessly has minimal advantages but it will be nice to just get in the car with the phone in my pocket and have it connect to the car without fiddling with a cable. The cable can be put away but kept for charging the phone.
Another advantage is that I should be able to use a pendrive for audio files while using AA.

Anyway, this hi-tec car offers wireless connection so it seemed rather tacky to be using a cable.
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: Kremmen on October 13, 2022, 11:57:01 AM
That's my reason for activating wireless, I have music on a memory stick.

I have had the occasional delay blip but nothing major. You're right about the first powerup being the slowest then it's a lot quicker till the next overnight stand. So far since the forced pair it's been a lot quicker overall.

I've tried but it doesn't work for me.
I have the same AA version (8.1.626474-release) and an Android 11 smartphone.
But every time I try the pairing, the system ask me to connect the smartphone using the cable.
I have disconnected, erased every smartphone, deleted Honda HFT Bluetooth connection the re-installed everything but nothing changes.
Any suggestion or reason to understand why it doesn't work?
Thx in advance.

PS: I already update my Jazz with the Honda Sensing recall.

As part of the setup for wireless you have to connect with the cable.

When the headunit dropped my phone a few weeks ago as 'unsupported device' I definitely didn't have to connect a cable to re-pair it.

My Samsung S10 identified Honda HFT as a bluetooth device and Bob was my uncle

I for one year used headunit with broken usb port and managed to activate AA wireless  many times (headunit   reseted to factory default by honda cervice center) and use AA wireles without usb cable connection by using standard procedure for cars that officialy have AA wireless support.
But should say it`s not straight forward and i needed to try several times before phone successfuly connected as AA and not as bluetooth device only.

Hi from New Zealand.
Returning to original topic for this thread.

My Jazz is going in for its first annual service and as part of this the fix for the safety recall will be applied.
This involves replacing the front camera so it is not just a software update - this is different from the UK where the fix just seems to be a software update.

Background: Honda cars in New Zealand are sold only through Honda New Zealand  which is a subsidiary of Honda Corporation. Official Honda Service centres which apply fixes for safety recalls are all owned and managed by Honda New Zealand; there are no Honda franchises or local independent agents.

On the subject of recalls .. when I took my Jazz EX in for its first service in December I was told about the camera update. Mystery to me as it worked perfectly before and after the service so I don’t know why an update was necessary. While at the dealers dropping the car off I mentioned that the near side door mirror made a slight noise as it folds. The driver side one is silent. Apparently it’s a known fault and the complete mirror assembly was replaced f o c. I only mentioned it in case a fault was developing and the mirror would get stuck in or out. Other than I’m very pleased with the car, 7.5K miles now.
Title: Re: Safety Recall
Post by: 1KPI on February 21, 2023, 11:48:05 AM
Thanks for post.
It encouraged me to contact the dealers regarding a similar noise on my n/s mirror.Perhaps not so similar, as now mine has escalated to a loud grinding noise.Hopefully I have convinced the dealers that it is a replacement rather than a repair especially as I have to do a 40 mile round trip to them.
Your posting gave me confidence to state that a replacement was needed & that they needed to order one in.

Whilst I am there I will also ask them to consider the increasingly tappety noise on idling in my 1 year old Crosstar currently on 7K miles
