Some Older Honda, Acura Vehicles Apparently Become Addled, Don’t Know the Year
To start the week, here's a bit of car news that’s on the lighter side. And it’s one that will bring back fond memories for many of the time when the calendar flipped from 1999 to 2000. Remember the Y2K Bug? That was the moniker given by popular consensus to the issue that, it was feared, would wreak havoc among computers and networks around the globe at the moment we left the 1900s.
About the new “problem”: it is somewhat smaller in scale. And it concerns some older Honda and Acura models, those equipped with navigation systems. According to owners, the manual override to adjust the time and date does not work. Many have reported the trouble on a number of forums such as the Ridgeline Owner's Club, CR-V Owner's Club and even on Reddit. The problem affects a range of vehicles, the oldest of which date back to 2004 and the newest to 2012.

But it shows just how temperamental new technologies can be, and unpredictable in their consequences. And our future vehicles will be full of them. We may not be done with these kinds of glitches.
