After 16k miles in my touring, I have come across some little annoyances that I have listed below. I still find it to be a great car, especially for the price. Fuel economy is fantastic. LED headlights are amazing. Decently quiet for its class.
1. Siri is really loud when she speaks but voice calls are quiet (makes Siri shockingly loud next time I use her after a call)
2. Auto lock: I want to fill up my gas tank without it auto locking!!
3. Lumbar adjustment, my back must not be average, it hurts after a while
4. Volume control in drive thru, wheel is always turned, makes it hard to do the "quick mute" swipe
5. Apple maps, if I used it last time I drove, my phone automatically opens the map app in the background during the current trip. I have to close the map app when connected to CarPlay to make it stop
6. Flimsy roof: sounds like it will be shaken off in the dryer section of the car wash
7. Alternate skin for screen: requires more taps of the screen to access the preset radio stations
8: lane watch shuts down any Siri activities when it is activated
9: rear view: the trunk is high for aerodynamics but blocks the view
10: turbo/CVT lag/high overall final drive ratio: taking off from a standstill is slow, hard to dart out into traffic and is occasionally scary! (Once it gets going it's great)
11: rain sensing wipers... No need to say more
12: CMBS: it put me at a complete stop in an intersection when it thought i was too close to a bus (bus was turning right, I was going straight, it thought my closing speed was too fast)
13: ACC: great for 2-lane roads, terrible for highways, people keep cutting in front because of the large gap
14: LKAS: again, great for 2-lane country roads, terrible anywhere near construction, sometimes it wants me to ram into trucks in the next lane
15: Honda sensing in general: I started out to be a super-fan, now it gets turned off unless I'm on a 2-lane country road. It is only half baked and not very smooth.
16: optimistic fuel economy gage, always 1 to 1.5 mpg optimistic (not terrible, but annoying)
