Wonder if other 2020 Honda Passport owners are having problems with dropped calls and a chirping background sound every time use use the radio or phone? I first recognized the problem in June and the background chirp is getting increasingly more intense and irritating and the late phone call I made was dropped 8 times. This is unacceptable in a car that is almost $40,000 and only one year old.

Exact reason I hate today cars, too much techy shit, it’s not only cars though I installed interiors for 25years in airplanes costing hundreds of millions of dollars and let’s just say they have the techy issue.

I wished auto manufacturers would offer each vehicle in a basic plane Jane model

There is a known issue with the connectors in the audio system take it to your dealership. Mine was snapping/crackling and the dealership fixed it.

My 2020 has had this weird cracking and popping as well -
The Honda dealership tech admitted they are working on a fix for this known problem -
I was told it may be another month - but they will issue a notice as mine falls within the VIN number range for re-work -
Grrr.... tech issues .... Still a great vehicle ;)

I own a 2020 EXL AWD PP with the same problem, bought it new last november with only 8 miles and it's got 5k now. The problems started a few months after I got it, with crackling, popping noise from speakers when radio is on, when on a call it drops constantly, this issue comes and goes. I took it to the dealership last Aug and dealer later said the infotainment connectors are faulty, needs replacement. Dealer will call me back when new parts are in and it'll be fixed under warranty. I've been waiting ever since, called a while back and was told the parts are on "Backorder" apparently there's a queue to get these PP fixed? As it is, I am not making important calls while phone is connected to the car, I keep the radio off for the most part as well. I'll give the dealer a few more weeks then I'm calling Honda corporate. If you have not brought you PP in to the dealership yet, I recommend you do it soon. Good luck.
