I purchased this for 2020 Honda Odyssey, put in, all car lights came on and fixing car did cost more than the cost of this crappy product. Returned it back. Don't play around, this is not plug n play as it's claimed.

PS: this is not first time I am installing anything in the car just in the case for information.
You did something wrong. Go you youtube, multiple people are using it without issue. If you plugged something into your car and it cost you over 1k to repair, you got bent over. A OEM ECU from Honda is 575.

I have one of these in a Hyundai Product, one of the most optimized vehicles to use this for. I take frequent trips in congested areas, long drives, with lots of slowing and going. I can answer most of the concerns people have based of factual, first hand, use case. 1. You don't need a subscription.2. It installs easy, less than 30 mins if its completely new to you3. You can move it from vehicle to vehicle4. It will keep you in your lane, centered, and away from other vehicles5. It will slow you to a stop, move forward, and act as a normal driver, hands free.6. It's not going to get hacked and controlled by someone and drive you off a bridge7. It's not going to be free one day then expensive the next8. It has a camera and an SD card slot for footage9. It's user friendly enough a 65 year old can understand it10. It is night and day better than lane keep + adaptive cruise + Highway driving assist. If you drive a reasonable amount, 12k/year, and frequently question other drivers intelligence, this makes driving much less annoying. Had mine for 2 years in 4 vehicles, around 50k miles, it's worth every penny.I take mine when I travel and put it in rental cars. Imagine Florida without worrying about traffic annoyances. If you don't plan on purchasing it, don't try it, because you will buy it.
Thanks for your comment! I just purchased one, but am curious about the Sunny Pilot fork, or something that? It keeps coming up, but what does the "fork" do, and how difficult is it to install? A noob to all of this and would appreciate any feedback or information.

I've been using it on my Kia EV6 since April; people can argue all they want as to whether the Comma doesn't offer much more than what is already available in those vehicles with factory driving assist functions, but in my use case here is a list of what Comma can do that the Kia HDA feature can't do (or do well):

1 - Comma will allow Adaptive Cruise Control to activate at speeds > 0 mph; on the Kia factory ACC activates only when vehicle speed is > 40 mph; use case scenario--I can activate it on surface streets where speed limits are < 40 mph
2 - Lane Follow Assist (LFA, not to be confused with Lane Keep Assist) works only on any road in which the Comma can detect road edge; Kia LFA works only at >40 mph and only if it can detect lane/edge markers on both sides of the lane
3 - Comma is capable of applying more steering wheel torque which is beneficial when taking turns at higher speeds; in comparison the Kia LFA would balk when attempting to take certain turns at higher speeds; I've seen this firsthand where I would approach a certain gentle-sweeping curve at 70 mph and the Kia LFA will tell me to take control of the steering wheel because it can't keep my vehicle within the lane, whereas Comma will take the same exact curve at that speed without complaining whatsoever
4 - Comma will not nag you to keep your hands on the steering wheel whatsoever (unless you choose to override that in the Comma settings)
5 - The Kia factory auto-lane change feature is a joke because not only does it require that you have your hands on the steering wheel prior to activating it, it constantly nags you to keep your hands on the steering wheel during the auto-lane change maneuver--might as well just do a manual lane change instead if you're having to keep your hands on the steering wheel; OTOH with Comma all I have to do is flick the turn signal lever in the direction of the lane change and Comma does the rest without even once nagging me to keep my hands on the steering wheel (you can override this as well if you'd rather prefer to receive the steering wheel warning)

To be clear I still keep my wits about me when Comma is in use; it is a godsend when driving on highways for extended stretches--in fact it's been great for me during the multiple times I've driven between NorCal and SoCal. Think about it for a moment--I don't need to keep my arms and/or legs extended for long periods of time; you can't convince me that your arms feel much better when your hands are on the steering wheel than they are when they're relaxed by your side. Yes it is not perfect by any means nor does it perform in the same manner as Tesla FSD but for what it can do compared to the factory driving assist features in my Kia I have no regrets purchasing it, especially considering that I paid $1450 (plus tax) back then; if you've been on the fence on getting one, then at $1100 it's almost a no-brainer to pull the trigger on buying one. Shoot, at that price I might almost consider buying a second one to use as a backup--an out-of-warranty replacement is $500 plus your old Comma.

It's just different software packages with different features. Most are constantly being updated and changed. It's like installing new operating systems on a computer. Takes about 5 minutes and it can be one and done. I used Openpilot for a long time, wanted to see if other software made thing smoother, used Dragonpilot, now I'm using Sunnypilot. Not a huge difference between them, Dragon was like riding with your grandma, butter smooth turns and limo like stops.

If you can change the theme on a phone, changing software is similar. All the software if available from the device and downloadable via wifi. a 65 year old with little tech knowledge can do it. (He had issues with the computer on an electric bike.)

It's a lot of technical info but you can start by reading here:

https://github.com/sunnypilot/sunnypilot

You may want to start with getting use to how Comma works with your vehicle by running Openpilot first, then once you get familiar with what it can offer you can move on to Sunnypilot which appears to be the fork of choice for HMG (i.e., Hyundai/Kia/Genesis) vehicle owners (I'm using SP on my Kia EV6). And oh BTW--each of the various forks have multiple branches you can elect to choose from, just to make your head spin...lol j/k. ;-)

The exact same experience I've had for years. The techs and salesmen at Hyundai love it. Every time they service the car, they ask about it and go for a ride. They love it.

Just to add, these well known forks (code branches) follow all safety standards set by official openpilot software. The forks do add quite a few features but features vary based on your vehicle. Here's a quick rundown of the differences - https://bderkhan.com/comma-ai-ope...unnypilot/

Thank you all for your comments! Very useful.

I just sold my Mustang Mach E with Blue Cruise and got a Chevy Equinox with Super a cruise which is a very lame system. Thinking of getting this to see if I can go back to the quality of Blue Cruise.
Why did you switch from a Mach-E to a Equinox? I assume you're talking about the Equinox EV? My perception was Supercruise was better than BlueCruise. It sounds like your experience is the opposite?

Curious only because I'm thinking about getting a Mach-E or F-150 Lightning with Blue Cruise in the coming weeks.

I've put 70,000 miles on a car with Comma (maybe 50k with Comma engaged). I'd pay full price without thinking twice. Comma really shines on long drives.
Agreed. I specifically bought a car that was the most compatible with the original Comma back in 2019, and never regretted it. It's a complete game changer for long drives and commuting in traffic.

Two reasons: 1) wanted to try Super Cruise.
2) I got a good deal on the Equinox and my vehicle was going to depreciate a lot this year, so I'm just saving some $$$. I may buy another one in two years but I will do GT next time, the suspension was very rigid on my premium.

Super cruise is only better than Blue Cruise on auto lane changes.

But it is useless on streets and even on freeways disengage very often for multiple reasons suddenly.

Blue Cruise was solid on freeways making a bip several seconds before disengaging so it was very smooth.

My Ford was also able to auto steer on the streets which was super convenient for traffic.

LOL lucky for me I bought my Kia EV6 back in 2022 before my having even heard of Comma, let alone not knowing ahead of time whether Comma (3X) was even compatible with my vehicle; IIRC the 3X hadn't yet been released back in 2022--meaning, it was even more fortunate I didn't take the Comma plunge until after the 3X was released since unlike the Comma 3 the 3X has the Panda hardware built into the unit itself whereas the 3 required a separate Panda dongle.

Honda doesn't mark up their products. If it's on Hondas website for 575, they're not charging you 30% more for it.

Reflashing a ECU is an hour. Even at 110/ hour, its still not 1k. Dude got ripped off if he paid 1k, there isn't anything the Comma would do to the ECU that could fry it. It's an ancillary software, nothing kernel, so it doesn't change anything.
