Just an update, got back from getting the car checked out and they said the code they got was a communication error. They said that code usually isnt a big deal and could be a soft connection, but everything looked fine.
Sorry to hear that it happened to you as well. That's a shame they tried to charge you for that. I've only had the car for 2.5 months so they had done the diagnostics check for free. Hoping that this engine issue is a one-time thing. I drive about 300 miles a week for work and do longer trips (1.5 +) quite a bit during the year so I'll report back if it happens again.Yes, I had almost the same exact experience. Mine is a 2019 with about 4K. Had been driving on the highway for about 90 minutes and when I went to get off the exit, the engine light started flashing and vehicle started running very rough. We were able to "limp" along until we reached our destination. Came out about 2 hours later and the issue was gone. Took it right to the dealer and they said the codes said there was a misfire and it was nothing to be concerned about. Then they tried to charge me $130 diagnostic fee, but changed their mind. This is very concerning to me and I am now hesitant to take it on a long (or even short) trip. I plan to get rid of it as soon as I am financially able.
Ha, ha. As long as we're (way) off-topic I had that happen on my Honda CB750K motorcycle about 40 years ago. Coasted to the side of the road, and then caught-up just minutes later with our riding partners at the first service station where they were still trying to decide what to do about my GF and me. I had replaced the main fuse--never impressed my buddy more than how quickly I figured that out!I had a similar experience happen to me, but back in the mid 70's. I was crusing along on the interstate (Carolinas I believe) when my mid 60s Buick Electra 225 convertible simply shut down. I coasted to the side and stopped. Then it restarted and I never had another problem with it.
Honda should be very concerned. Even more than you.Hi everyone, I am new to the community... I have owned my 2020 Passport Elite AWD for two months now, have put 3,000 miles on so far.
This past weekend I was driving for about 2 hours and when I went to merge onto a highway the check engine light flashed a couple of times and limited the car to only go about 35 mph. Luckily I was in a position to safely pullover, park, and shut the car off. When I turned the Passport back on the check engine light no longer was showing and everything was back to normal. I've driven it a few more times since the issue happened and everything has been fine, but I am getting it checked out tomorrow morning to see what had happened.
Has this happened to you? I know this was and still is an issue with the new model RDX's, not sure if there's any correlation to the Passport.
This is a serious incident. Call the service dept. You may want it towed to the dealer. I am not blowing smoke. That is a serious safety issue, with liabilities.

Yes it has happened to us seven times since owning the card for less than six months. It has been in the shop now four times. It does not register codes so I put my daughter's FIXD device in and we were able to get three misfiring codes. They replaced three fuel injectors two weeks ago and yesterday it happened again. They sent us home with a rental car as they have no clue what the problem is. Good Luck!Hi everyone, I am new to the community...

Same thing happened to me today. Drove 40 minutes then the blinking light and limp mode. Taking it to the dealer tomorrow.Hi everyone, I am new to the community... I have owned my 2020 Passport Elite AWD for two months now, have put 3,000 miles on so far.

Oh no. I hope I don’t have the same result. Thanks for sharing.Yes it has happened to us seven times since owning the card for less than six months. It has been in the shop now four times.

Ditto on the concern. I need dependable transportation and will not get another when the lease is up.Yes, I had almost the same exact experience. Mine is a 2019 with about 4K.

Ultimately ended up getting rid of it after about 8 months. There were too many things about it that I did not like.Ditto on the concern. I need dependable transportation and will not get another when the lease is up.
