Some positive news! I went to my local dealer today for an oil change and to inquire about having them review the problems I have been having with the Infotainment System. This is my first time to this dealer with my CTR. Just like the dealer where I bought my car, they told me they could not find any problems but they performed a factory reset in case it would make a difference. They told me they have to observe the problem before they can do anything. Well, on the way home it locked up so I turned around and drove back to the dealer. Before turning off the car, the service tech took a look at it and observed the problems with it. After witnessing its behavior, he initiated a work order to replace the "brain" of the system as the display appeared to be functioning properly.I have regular failures and abnormal boots and have never connected to carplay or android auto. If I have a USB flash drive plugged in and playing music, I experience lock-ups and other strange failures about once every two hours of use on average. It will fail while driving during hands-free phone calls, Nav will appear to be operating but location can be 20 miles off and direction incorrect (it shows me driving through lakes!). Holding the power button in will ask if I want to reboot, but touching yes won't have any effect. I get long abnormal boots where the white Honda "H" logo appears and not the Type R logo. The list goes on. Even while listening to FM radio, the screen will go blank or randomly reboot. I provided a failure log with video evidence to the dealer, but they can never reproduce it so won't do anything but command a factory reset. I have an open case with Honda but my contact is not easy to reach and hasn't done anything that I can tell. It gives me hope hearing that some have gotten replacements, so I guess it is time to start calling daily, squeaky wheel and all. Here are a few of the failures:
Failed twice in one video:
Shows what doesn't work:
So, as soon as the repair parts come in, I will schedule the service. I really hope this will put an end to these issues.
