The same components appear in both official NHTSA recalls and owner-filed complaints — a double-confirmed failure signal.
1.5L VTEC Turbo: documented gasoline fuel diluting engine oil in cold climates — Honda extended warranty and class action settlement
Worn chain tensioners cause timing chain skip or snap — common on GM 5.3L/6.2L, Ford EcoBoost, VW/Audi EA888, BMW N47/N63. Listen for cold-start rattles.
Water pump failure causes rapid overheating. If the engine overheats even once, head gasket damage is likely — turning a $400 part into a $3,000+ repair.
Degraded transmission fluid destroys clutch packs and solenoids. CVT transmissions are especially sensitive — neglected fluid can result in a $4,000–$8,000 replacement.
Degraded coolant loses corrosion inhibitors and attacks aluminum engine components. Can cause head gasket failure and water pump corrosion.
Worn spark plugs cause misfires that can foul and crack catalytic converters. A $150 tune-up can prevent a $1,200 catalytic converter replacement.
Dirty or failing injectors cause rough idle, reduced fuel economy, and increased emissions. Cleaning costs $100–$200; replacement $800–$1,600.
Documented systemic defect with class action or NHTSA investigation. These issues are often unrepaired at point of sale.

First complaint was filed 6.5 years before the recall was issued — manufacturer was aware of this issue for years before acting.
Steering gets "sticky". Brought car to Honda dealer and just by test driving the car they want $6000 to replace bad bearings, steering motor and gearbox. No diagnostic test was done or parts looked at physically. I brought car to a local mechanic who also test drove car and did a diagnostic test and they said the steering motor and gearbox are fine and said nothing wrong with car. Honda has had recall on 2017-2018 crvs due to faulty steering mechanism. This is obviously a known Honda safety issue since Honda dealer knew what problem was just by test driving car and known recall. Why is my car not covered even though Honda said it's out of warranty? Which mechanic do I believe? Can local mechanic diagnostic test pick up the problem as outlined in Honda recall with magnet issue? I don't want to drive an unsafe car yet Honda wants $6k and I don't know for sure if there's a safety issue.
Head gasket failed due to bolts stretching allowing coolant to leak into the cylinder on cold starts until the engine warmed and sealed itself. Was confirmed by Honda technician be causing a misfire on cylinder 4 throwing code p0304 and all warning lights on dash going off during cold starts only. Lead to unreliable transportation, slow acceleration, and even random parking brake engagement one time when waiting to pull out from a parking lot into traffic, in a vehicle supposed to be sold as reliable for families and to last over 200k miles with proper maintenance while this has happened at 140,000 miles despite proper maintenance and at no fault of my own, but as a design flaw that Honda is aware of and wont recall to fix causing major costly repairs.
I have a 2017 CRV 1.5T. I currently have confirmed fuel dilution and a P219F (emission systems problem) code. Records show TSB 18-114 was performed as Honda tried to fix the fuel dilution problem through an ECM software update but it did not fix the issue. They followed it up with TSB 19-067 which was to further update the ECM software. The problem is this was not applied to all CRV 1.5T including mine. This is known ongoing defect and leads to car going into limp mode in highway driving. That is dangerous and a safety hazard. Honda should update the ECM software fix for all Honda CRVs using the 1.5T and replace faulty fuel injectors.
I have experienced instances of the brakes being aggressively applied unexpectedly when no other vehicles or stationary objects are nearby to trigger the collision avoidance system. Any car following immediately behind would have rear-ended me. This has occurred a few times in the last 12 months. No warning lights are present prior to, or when this occurs. I have not had the vehicle inspected by anyone given the intermittent nature of this issue.
The car runs hot and needs antifreeze. I add antifreeze. The next week it runs hot again. There is no antifreeze leaking on the ground. The Honda dealer stated the antifreeze is leaking into the engine and blown a head gasket. I am advised this is very common problem for a Honda CRV. It should be a recall. This is why I am filing a complaint. The Honda dealer wants 7000 to fix it. The car has 102,000 miles.
CRV 2017 Head Gasket on engine Failure
I am submitting this complaint regarding a serious and ongoing safety issue with my 2017 Honda CR‑V equipped with the 1.5L turbocharged engine. While driving, the vehicle experienced sudden and unexpected power loss, creating a dangerous situation, particularly while in traffic. During this incident, the vehicle also began emitting visible smoke, indicating a serious mechanical or engine-related failure. At the same time, the dashboard and instrument panel malfunctioned or failed, limiting my ability to receive warnings or diagnose the issue while operating the vehicle. Over the past 23 months, I have brought this vehicle to three different Honda dealerships due to warning lights, abnormal behavior, and ongoing concerns related to performance and reliability. Despite multiple service visits, the dealerships were unable to properly identify or resolve the underlying issue. Temporary explanations or repairs were provided, but the problem persisted. It was only during the most recent dealership visit in the last week that the issue was finally properly identified, after months of unresolved complaints and warning indicators. By that time, the vehicle had already experienced a serious failure involving power loss, smoke, and dashboard malfunction. The prolonged inability to correctly diagnose and repair this vehicle, combined with the sudden power loss and system failures, created a significant safety hazard. This failure could have resulted in a crash and placed vehicle occupants and others at risk. I believe this issue may be related to a broader defect affecting Honda CR‑V vehicles equipped with the 1.5L turbo engine. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate this matter due to the severe safety implications and the pattern of unresolved warnings over an extended period.
been having trouble with the climate control system and the radio screen will black out unexpectedly. this has been going on for years. last night, 3/24/2026, I came home and as I put the vehicle in park, all of a sudden the dashboard lights up with all sorts of faults. when I went to go to work on 3/25/2026, I still had all of the faults lit up on the dashboard, and when I went to put the vehicle in reverse it wouldn't go anywhere because one of the faults was a brake system fault. I was told that this could happen going down the highway where the brake system and the other faults could come back on and cause a crash.
Engine light came on loss of power. I had to have it towed back home. A independent shop investigated the situation found coolant in the cylinder head. They found out it was a bad head gasket, which led to engine failure when going to replace the head gasket part of the cylinder wall peace was missing. I had to replace the whole engine.
We are experiencing fule injector issues which causes all the systems to switch off, and has caused issues with the car starting, battery draining and issues in getting the car to accelerate. This car has only 110000 miles and should not be having issues this early.
Engine failure due to bad head gasket.i lost power to the vehicle. The problem was confirmed by independent shop. The vehicle was inspected by independent shop. The engine light came on when the engine failed.
My 2017 Honda CRV VIN [XXX] AC compressor has completely seized/locked up. This has caused: (1) loss of engine power while driving with AC on, (2) burning smell from engine compartment, (3) loud grinding noise. A seized AC compressor risks snapping the serpentine belt while driving, which causes sudden loss of power steering — a direct safety hazard at highway speeds. This is a known Honda defect covered under TSB 23-040, yet the dealer denied warranty coverage claiming the compressor failure is unrelated to the shaft seal defect. The root cause was never addressed despite my car being serviced in May 19 2023 and they charged for discharge hose and freeon filling for 900$. The same day honda extended warranty of parts via TSB 23-040. I feel Honda dealership never found the root cause and beating around the bush. We lose money and health and safety is also getting intona concern. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
In [XXX], my daughter's 2017 Honda CR-V EX (VIN: [XXX] ) broke down while driving due to turbocharger failure. The vehicle was towed to Corwin Honda in Colorado Springs, CO, an authorized Honda dealership. The repair order documented the customer complaint as "multiple warning lights on, lack of acceleration, coolant was added." The dealership replaced the turbocharger for 4,540. The multi-point inspection form from that visit shows the coolant recovery reservoir as "Not Inspected," despite the stated coolant complaint and despite the service estimate promising to check all fluid levels. Four months later, in February 2026, the vehicle broke down again while being driven. The same dealership has now diagnosed a blown head gasket and is recommending full engine replacement. The vehicle lost power while in motion, creating a safety hazard. I want to note that Corwin Honda's shop foreman acknowledged during a recorded conversation that they are currently seeing multiple identical failure patterns — turbo failure followed by head gasket failure — on 2017-2019 Honda CR-Vs with the 1.5T engine, and that the volume of such cases has increased significantly in the past six to nine months. I am aware that Honda is currently a defendant in active federal class action litigation [XXX] et al. v. American Honda Motor Co., Case No. [XXX]) specifically alleging a design defect in the 1.5T engine causing coolant leakage, head gasket failure, and sudden loss of power. The sudden loss of motive power while driving constitutes a safety risk to the vehicle occupant and other drivers.

I was pumping gas and DURING gas started pouring out by the rear tire flap. It was not a whole tank but a large amount. And the next day also noticed a puddle where gas tank lies. This has happened in the past but sporadically and not all of the gas comes out. Also, there is a safety recall on rear fuel feed pipe leaks AND fuel pump motor but supposedly not on this particular vehicle year/VIN.
In late December (2025) we noticed that our Honda CR-V was starting up rough each day. One day, we found that all of the warnings were being cycled through on the dashboard (TPMS, Check Engine, ABS, etc.) We took it into a local mechanic on December 29th, but when we dropped it off, the problem was not presenting. They performed routine maintenance (105,000 miles), and did not notice any obvious problems with the engine. They told us to bring it back if the problem returned. We noticed the engine problem getting worse over time, and on February 7th, the warning lights came on again and did not go off. We took the car to the mechanic on February 11th where it was diagnosed as a head gasket failure. On February 14th we took it to a Honda Service Center for a second opinion where they confirmed the head gasket failure. Both places told us the cost to repair it would be at least 6000, which Honda giving us a quote of 7570 with tax. The car is currently with Honda being repaired. We were told that driving the car in these conditions was not safe. The fluid in the engine cylinders could cause the engine to lock up and cause a dangerous driving condition. We have also been told that a head gasket failure at only 100,000 miles is not normal, and this is from a documented design flaw. We feel that Honda should take responsibility for this flaw and cover the cost of repairs.
There's an issue with the fuel injectors on the 2017 1.5 Turbo engine on the CRV. There was a service bulletin issued in 2019 about this and basically not much done by Honda on this concern which is a major repair costing around 2400 dollars. The issue caused all lights on the dashboard to light up. The vehicle runs rough and times you smell gas also.
I was driving across a major intersection when the car slammed on the brakes for no reason. There were no shadows. I was not under a bridge. It is an overcast day. No direct sun. My safety was at risk because I could have been hit by oncoming traffic when I was trying to go forward.
Random problems since purchase with screen going out and emergency brake light either flashing for no reason and braking for no reason. In 2023 the brake system completely failed while driving. Honda dealer replaced fuel pump which helped for awhile. Now flashing brake warning for no reason is happening again. Fear the car will either start braking again for no reason or another system failure might occur. Afraid to drive the car.
Vehicle cycled through all of the warnings on the dashboard and lost power when trying to accelerate and engine light came on. Stalled on the side of the highway and had to be towed. Mechanic said the code for the issue was the catalytic converter and O2 sensor.
This car has some fuel injector problems. I've replaced them and it's still running very crappy. I've read a lot and seen a lot of people getting their fuel injectors fixed with this year of vehicle and now it smells like it's flooding out and Honda should be covering this. This has been an ongoing issue. I've tried to fix it. It's not working. This is car is a lemon.
Impact on the driver side from another vehicle caused it to be totaled but not a single airbag deployed.
When driving on the interstate, the car speed went from 75 mph to 10-20 mph over 20 miles. The engine light came on, and the car would not go any faster than 10-20 mph. it was extremely nerve racking trying to get off the interstate and attempt to limp in to Topeka KS. It was very cold that day as well.
1.Please see my letter to Honda. 2.I drove for months with all of my warning lights on, not being able to tell what was actually wrong with my car/note being able to afford to fix my car that isn't even paid off. See letter to Honda. 3.Yes. It has been confirmed by my local Honda dealer as well as an independent service center. 4.I have filed a complaint with Honda. 5.Yes. All of my warning lights in the car would flash/stay on making it very difficult to figure out what the issue actually was. Letter: I am writing to follow up on my recent communication with Honda’s Goodwill Department regarding the fuel injector failure on my 2017 Honda CR-V. This situation has caused significant financial burden & frustration with a brand I have always trusted. Over a year ago, the fuel injectors began intermittently triggering the vehicle’s computer system, despite there being no actual mechanical issue. At that time, Honda acknowledged this was a “common” problem with this model year & advised it was safe to continue driving since the sensor was only barely tripping the system. I hoped Honda would issue a recall or extended warranty, as this is a known and widespread defect. That never occurred. This past weekend, the sensor failed completely & required immediate replacement at a cost of $1,000+—nearly identical to the estimate Honda provided over a year ago. My vehicle has only 96,000 miles, is not yet paid off, & was purchased as a certified pre-owned Honda. These factors are precisely why I have remained loyal to Honda. It is extremely frustrating that this same issue is covered under a recall or extended warranty for the 2018 CR-V, while the 2017 model—despite having the same known defect—is excluded. This inconsistency feels unfair, especially since Honda acknowledged this issue directly. I am requesting reconsideration for assistance. This failure was not due to misuse or neglect but a known defect that occurred prematurely. I hope Honda will stand behind its reputation.
With 82,300 miles on the Odometer, my 2017 Honda CRV Touring AWD started misfiring and displayed a check engine light for a P0301 Cylinder 1 misfire detected. All 4 injectors had failed displaying Cylinder 1-4 as Fail(Rich) under the dealership diagnostic. This left me with a $2,000 repair bill at the Honda dealership. “DIAGNOSE CUSTOMER CONCERN: checked car. confirmed complaint. dtc p0301 cylinder 1 misfire stored. performed AF terst and found all 4 cylinders running rich. Recommend replacing injectors The analysis of the various functions of the components of a vehicle to determine if they are operating properly or have recorded faults which need to be corrected.” Honda refuses to reimburse me or even a partial reimbursement for something that should be recalled on this vehicles as being way too common on a daily basis.
Recently, all of the warning lights on the car went off all at once and wouldn’t turn off even if I turn the car off/on. There was no issue leading up to this but after taking it into Honda and getting a second opinion, it is due to faulty fuel injectors and the repair total will be $1,800. The repairs are necessary because of safety issues associated with the fuel injectors. Other Honda vehicles with the same injectors have an extended warranty (150,000 miles) but Honda CRV’s do not. I read 100+ reviews other users having the same issue. I’d like Honda to step in and at least give an extended warranty.
I am reporting a recurring safety issue with my 2017 Honda CR-V. The vehicle has experienced repeated incidents where multiple warning lights suddenly illuminate at the same time. In some instances, the lights disappear temporarily and then return. I replaced the battery, but the warning lights returned within two weeks. About one year ago, the Honda dealer recommended replacing all four fuel injectors, which I did at significant cost. Despite this repair, the problem reoccurred. Most recently, all warning lights came on again and the vehicle lost power and became undrivable. This presents a serious safety concern, especially if it occurs while driving. I have learned that many other 2017 Honda CR-V owners report similar fuel injector and warning-light issues. I believe this may indicate a widespread defect and request that NHTSA investigate this matter for potential recall or corrective action. Thank you for pay close attention to this matter!
Driving down a local road with a speed limit of 40 mph. The car suddenly braked and the BRAKE warning light show on the dashboard. No others cars were near me, in all direction. It was clear sunny/dry day. Had to accelerate to prevent car from stop. to s void a possible rear end crash.
On December 31, on my way to work driving 58mph on the highway, the car slows down in traffic on the highway and the dashboard lights up. I avoided a wreck, narrowly. I put on my flashers and coast to the nearest gas station. I turned the car off and waited 10 minutes or so and proceed to drive home with the flashers on, the car seemed to be ok and I was 10 minutes from my house then the car slows down again to 7 mph so I drove like that with the flashers holding up traffic praying I'd make it home. It stalled crossing the train tracks but I made it home. I called a mechanic that hooked it up to a device to read the codes and He informed me about the fuel injector and that it was common for the make and model of my HONDA CR-V to have this problem. The cost is exorbitant and Honda should bear some if not all of the cost for replacement.
I have had all warning lights go on disabled some options, gave me incorrect speed, (i ended up w a speeding ticket over that) made my vehicle go in limp mode ,didn't want to accelerate on highway, could have caused an accident I have a young child and was scared to even drive it. It turned out to be my fuel injectors which was very pricey and I had honda do the repair. I have seen a whole lot of people with this issue with the engine I have which is the 1.5 turbo. I think it should be addressed by honda and they should really be fixing the issue at no cost especially since they know the original injectors were faulty and they changed the part number. Hope it gets addressed on behalf of hundreds of thousands of these vehicles and not so happy honda customers.
Car has been having all of the dashboard lights come on. I search up this and there are so many same gen Honda CRV 2017-19 having the same issue happen repeatedly. I have came across atleast 50+ people online that keep having this issue come back. Also at times it will says engine is too hot and to park safely. This is 3rd time where my car is in idle and the car shuts off and says engine is too hot to which I then turn it off. When I proceed to try to start car after waiting it does not stay on. I went to 2 different Hondas and they stated battery, alternator, starter are good. This car is no good if everyone is having the same issues.
All fuel injectors need to be replaced. I know 2 other people with CRV's that have had the same exact issue and had to have them replaced. It is also all over forums on the internet. Service people at Honda also told me it is a known issue with the fuel injectors in the Honda 4 cylinders until 2023. I have a quote for almost $1700. I currently own 2 Honda CRV's and one is a 2022 so I am expecting that one to eventually need the fuel injectors also. I am bringing the car in for service on 12/15 to have this done. I feel like this should be investigated to bring a recall. When people that work at repair facilities say the only way to bring this to light is to report it to this agency and try to get a recall since Honda isn't going to issue the recall on their own.
2017 Honda CRV only serviced at Honda dealers and ALL recommended maintenance performed including cleaning the fuel injectors at 50K! Engine was running rough and took it to dealer. Tech found vehicle running very rich, with some slight misfires. Pulled plugs, no cooling system leak, every cylinder running rich, fuel injectors are sticking (cleaned one year ago), spark plugs are heavily fouled. Had to replace all fuel injectors, and all spark plugs at 56K miles. Called Honda because this is a known 2017-18 software problem causing the fuel to run rich "Honda Service Bulletin 19-032" June 18, 2019 and Honda claimed my vehicle was not included in the extended 6yr unlimited miles warranty because I took it in for service before it through the required codes. So because I take good care of my car and pay more for Honda dealers to do the maintenance so my warrenty won't be voided I get screwed by Honda out of $2300!! NHTSA knows this is a true saftey issue. The recorded complaints are massive for this fuel issue. It is a software issue that should have been updated on all the 2017-2018 Honda CRV's to avoid premature replacement of the fuel injectors. Honda has all my vehicle records in their system but couldn't confirm the dealer did the required software updates which the TBS specifically says if the software update is not done it voids the warranty. NHTSA needs to make Honda make a recall and reimburse for all these fuel injectors and spark plugs. Honda also didn't have any loyalty for this being our 5th Honda. I have read this issue can cause a vehicle to stall if not fixed which is a safety issue.
2017 Honda CR V- Hybrid All warning lights on the dashboard—including the Check Engine Light, Oil Pressure Warning, Battery Warning Light, Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) Light, Brake System Warning, ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) Light, Fuel Level Warning Light, and Engine Temperature Warning Light—activated intermittently. This issue intermittently occurred each time the vehicle was started, with symptoms lasting from a few days up to several weeks. The warning lights would temporarily resolve, with periods lasting from a few days to several months. The vehicle's battery was replaced twice within one year, which seemed to temporarily alleviate the issue; however, the warning lights recurred afterward. Recently, Honda conducted a thorough diagnosis and identified the root cause, leading to the replacement of the spark plugs and fuel injectors at an approximate cost of $2,000. If unaddressed, this issue could pose safety risks such as rough idling, decreased fuel efficiency, engine misfires, difficulty starting, poor acceleration, unexpected stalling, complete loss of power, and electrical problems. This issue is recognized by Honda and is currently covered under a recall for the 2023-2025 Honda Pilot and the 2023-2025 Honda Accord Hybrid. While the Honda Accord Hybrid and Honda CR-V Hybrid share the same fuel injection system as part of Honda’s two-motor hybrid-electric powertrain, the Honda CR-V Hybrid has not yet been included in this recall. Nonetheless, many Honda CR-V Hybrid owners are experiencing similar issues and are incurring repair costs out of pocket. Honda, please consider including our Honda CR-V Hybrid in your recall for your fuel injection system issue.
A 2017 CR-V entering limp mode and showing all dashboard alerts. I brought it up to Honda America and open case #15734548 to complained about fuel injector recall. After reading the codes at local Honda dealership Chandler,Arizona and repaired cylinder misfire issues. Two days later again started showing all warning lights. I request local Honda dealer to diagnosis further. After discussion with dealer and started reading countless posts regarding bad fuel injectors on different models. I too see Honda recalls for fuel injectors and my VIN is not in recall list. Its well maintained and only 73k miles on this 2017 CRV. They wouldn’t normal maintenance issue and its a design or manufacturing flaw. I am requesting that Honda cover the full cost of the necessary repairs and more move its several safety recalls due to bad fuel injector design or so. Should be included in recalls.

Honda, please consider including our Honda CR-V Hybrid in your recall for your fuel injection system issue. Including all within the 10 yr 150k miles that are using this faulty fuel injection systems.
All warnings on dash appeared on vehicle. Took to the dealership and all 4 cylinder fuel injectors need replacing. Car only has 39,900 miles on it.
Monday (11/17/2025) after work: car vibrated 10 seconds then stopped when turning on car. Tuesday (11/18/2025): ALL warning lights came on. Schedule appt at Honda for Saturday when they could see us. Wednesday (11/19/2025) was driving to AutoZone to have battery checked (3 years ago all lights went on and it was the battery) when car went from 70mph on highway to not exceeding 20mph with my family in the car during rush hour. I had to stay on the road as there was no shoulder resulting in a near mass car accident as everyone slammed brakes to avoid me. Went 20mph to closest car shop (right off the exit). Car shop without looking said most likely the head gasket which is a known Honda CRV 2017 issue. Said maybe spark plugs so we tried as its a significantly less costly fix which did not solve the issue. Had it towed to Baierl Honda on Friday (11/21/2025) before the car was even at Honda the worker told us it was a head gasket issue. Once looking they confirmed 5000 head gasket issue with potential for another 5000 in damage once they open the engine. There are several class action lawsuits out for this very issue which is a huge safety risk to those in the car as well as those around as the engine stops working no matter what speed you are traveling. We reached out to Honda corporate and have yet to hear back. We have not cleared Honda Baierl to work on the problem yet so it has been sitting in their lot.
Center display for backup camera locks up and no longer shows live view causing a near miss on people walking behind vehicle. Possibly related: Center display also sometimes goes blank or audio fails. Need video to show sequence of events, but that can not be uploaded. Also, when center display sometimes stays blank (although, backup camera might still work, without guide lines), fuse #19 under the hood can be removed w/ vehicle off, then CR-V started, then off, and fuse re-placed, and then center display will work again for some time.
I have had my crv suddenly brake on me on multiple occasions when absolutely no one is around to cause it. It’s created many of close calls and given me mild whip lash in the past. But yesterday it happened in a way much worse than ever bc I was on the interstate and it abruptly stopped (again no one in front of me or to the side) which jolted me and gave me some brutal whiplash and then it was locked up & wouldn’t go faster than 20mph!! I was in the left lane & I almost got hit by multiple people behind me & almost died! I had to drive like this for 3-5 minute (hazards on of course) until I could ‘safely’ pull over. Once i turned it off and turned it back on, it went back to accelerating normally. I have taken my car to the Honda dealership for every oil change I’ve gotten & this issue has never come up on their full vehicle inspection. I cannot emphasize enough how close I came to dying bc of this. I really hope a resolution or recall happens sooner than later bc I’m now learning there’s 1000’s of people online saying they’ve had similar experiences. It should not take years to address this when there are so many lives at stake. Please help. Sincerely, terrified to drive my car now (& that’s not good considering I drive for work)
Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) Is automatically warning and has engaged when no object is ahead. Seems to be picking up overhead/over roadway traffic signals and signage.
Unknown: all light on dash come on. Maybe an electrical or engine problem. All safety features on car disable. Honda dealer said it’s an emission problem. Battery has been changed and problem still continues. Started at about 70,000 miles. Comes on and goes away on its own. Happened about 7 times now
P0301 code Cylinder 1 Misfire Detected.
All dashboard lights come on when car is idling. Changed battery and tested alternator and issue stills persist. Temporary resolution is rebooting the system while car is in accessory mode. I've read many articles with similar issues where after paying thousands of dollars to the dealership to resolve the issue with no success.
the CMBS activated when driving when no other vehicle was in front of my vehicle. the car came to a stop.
In December 2024 we brought our 2017 Honda CRV for rattling and shaking when accelerating. In all cases below, the dashboard flashed engine warnings and fuel system warnings. The Honda Dealership mechanics shop replaced fuel injectors, spark plugs, and adjusted valves. Importantly, they also performed a full coolant service. Services totaled 2,952.92. In October 2025 we brought the 2017 Honda CRV to another Honda Dealership for the same issue. They performed a fuel system service and replaced the blower motor and, importantly, a coolant service. Services totaled 1,070.91. On November 7th the car completely failed and was towed to the first Honda Dealership who diagnosed a failed damaged head gasket. Repair will cost 6500.00 dollars. Upon research we have found that the 2017 Honda CRV Turbo has what appear to be a known problem with coolant leaking in the cylinders causing shaking and rattling when accelerating and leading to damage of the head gasket. My daughter's, the driver of the car, safety was at risk as the car could have failed at anytime between these repairs. Given Honda's knowledge of this problem I would have expected the two dealerships to have let us know this could be a problem. Given both dealership mechanic shops changed our coolant (these dealerships have joint records so they can see each other's work) and must know about the issue described, I would expect to be told and deal with the issue rather than wait for total failure at 153K miles, just 3K miles past the engine warranty.
I am writing to formally express my extreme dissatisfaction with the randomly vanishing dashboard, all sorts of warning lights and its recurring issues. I see a recall for 2017 CRV for Fuel injector. I don't see my VIN for fuel injector recalls and most likely my CRV issue with fuel injector. Fuel injector replacement is a major repair. I. I scheduled an appointment with AutoNation Honda Chandler,AZ,to troubleshoot an issue. I believe these issues may stem from a design or manufacturing flaw. I am requesting that Honda cover the full cost of the necessary repairs.
When driving the vehicle the steering wheel sticks when I turn, change lanes, etc. It is most noticeable at highway speeds. If I am moving to the left, the steering wheel sticks and doesn't want to freely move back to the right/straighten up. Obviously the reverse occurs when I go to move to the right- it sticks and pressure is required to straighten the steering wheel. to date the steering wheel has not remained in a stuck position. This presents a major safety concern - if it doesn't move freely back to the desired position there is heightened chance of a traffic accident resulting in damage to my car and other cars involved. Worst case scenario: a serious accident resulting in SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO MYSELF as well as any other drivers and/or passengers involved. NOTE: My local Honda dealer reports that there are NO recalls or Service bulletins on my vehicle, based on the VIN number. Other VIN numbers of the same make and model year as mine (2017 CR-V) ARE subject of a recall (Honda Service Bulletin # 18-103, regarding faulty Steering Gearbox.) For that reason I feel my vehicle should be included and repairs made at no cost to me.
Driving down an in town road going approximately 35 mph with no cars within 5 car lengths front side and back when I hear three beeps and my car brakes hard on its own and then continues. It was scary and I pulled off the road to a parking lot to turn the car off and on. While today I didn’t have anyone tailgating me, this could have easily been a bad accident in town traffic. I plan to contact my dealer tomorrow to report and have safetysystem checked and adjusted. I see that others have experiences like this and online was advised to report this.
My turbo had a nut come loose twice, once after having the turbo completely replaced. This has lead to a head gasket failure.
My 2017 Honda CR-V experienced premature and sudden fuel injector failure that I believe is part of a widespread defect affecting 2017–2019 CR-V models. In April, multiple warning lights came on several times (“10-point” dashboard lights). I went to different mechanics, and one recommended a brake fluid flush, which I completed. The warnings continued. Later, while driving, I heard a sudden, harsh crunching sound from the engine area. I immediately pulled over out of concern for safety. The vehicle still moved but did not feel safe to drive, so I cautiously limped it home and canceled clients. I took the vehicle to South Point Honda in Durham, NC. Their diagnosis confirmed that all four fuel injectors had failed, and they quoted $1,679.99. I then had the repair completed at a Honda/Acura specialty shop for $1,273.12. Fuel injectors are not a regular maintenance item, and many other CR-V owners have reported the same problem. These injector failures can cause misfires, loss of power, or engine damage while driving, which is a safety concern. I am requesting that NHTSA investigate premature injector failure in 2017–2019 Honda CR-V models.
Back in July, my car started having the lights come on; it lit up the whole dashboard. The brake system, tire pressure, brake hold system, hill start, adaptive cruise control, etc. It affected the power of the vehicle. There was no acceleration at all. It was like it went in limp mode. This has happened numerous times. The other problem is starting it was making a hesitation to start. It would also start rough as in almost like a shake. We noticed that it was using antifreeze more often than it should and would get hot sitting still. That's when we took car to be inspected by a certified mechanic and that's when we found out that we needed a new engine due to antifreeze seeping into the engine.
Fuel smell when vehicle is parked overnight. The smell is inside the cabin especially stronger near the rear left passenger door where the filler fuel is located. This has been happening even in summer temperatures, not just cold weather like some people have mentioned in forums or online.
UNEXPECTED SUDDEN ACCELERATION. 2017 Honda CR-V. Twice while highway driving with autopilot on, system failed to slow it when approaching other vehicles and it sped up instead. When I pumped the brakes, it went away. I TOOK IT OFF AUTOPILOT HENCEFORTH. Several days later, coming out of a market parking lot and approaching a stop sign, the accelerator went down and sped me forward with brakes doing barely anything. I shot into a CVS parking lot, managed to stop it and turn the engine off. It's sitting in a garage now and no one knows what to do and I am terrified to drive it. Could have killed me or others around me. IT WAS NOT THE FLOOR MAT NOR ANYTHING I DID.
while driving on a clear day, i went under a bridge on a downhill slope and the car flashed the brake warning and applied the breaks automatically almost causing the car behind me to hit me. Dealer has not been able to reproduce the issue. this has happened a few times. once on the highway and another time slowly going through a construction site where there was a dip in the road. the last issue happened on 9/27/2025. the first issue was in March of 2024
This complaint is in regards to three engine failures for my vehicle. I purchased the vehicle in October of 2017. In October 2020 this vehicle suffered a malfunction of the fuel injector systems. Warning lights were enabled prior to losing full power of the vehicle at this time and it was brought in for repair. In June 2025, my vehicle began losing power while actively driving resulting in the car and myself being put in potentially dangerous conditions on the road. The car would fail to accelerate and move. The car had to be coasted back to an area of safety. There were no warning lights prior to this happening. Warning lights came on hours later after attempting to address the issue. At that time in June 2025, my car was found to have a blown head gasket from an unknown cause per the dealership. I was without a car for approximately 3 weeks which was devastating for my family and caused hardship. As well as a financial burden from the costly repairs. In September 2025, my car again lost power and was required to be towed to the dealership. At this time I was told again that the fuel injectors needed replaced due to failure. Warning lights did not display prior to the power failure, they displayed after the fact as we attempted to find a cause at the scene. This was a sudden power failure that could have been potentially dangerous.
The headlights were on after I replaced the battery. Did a little bit of research and found that the body control module or (BCM) would be going out. Got a new one sent and tried replacing it and the part didn't end up working. Took it to a non honda dealer. Got it taken care of, but the new BCM wouldn't work. All warning lights came on and now I have to deal with the BCM going out again and not able to return the part back to Honda.
All dashboard lights ( warnings) will light up and has stayed on for 4 days. Will randomly clear on its own. Car will also jerk while accelerating speed from 30 to 40 miles and above. Car has been inspected by a mechanic shop and has checked fuses and has had a tune up. This has happened over several months this year starting back in March. Issue still continues. Mechanical shop has reported 3 more cars like mine Honda CRV has come in with the same issue and issue remains unknown and unresolved at this time.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving 60 MPH, the vehicle stalled on the interstate. The contact was able to coast to the shoulder of the roadway. After waiting for a while, the vehicle was restarted with several unknown warning lights flashing on the instrument cluster. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed, and the intake cam, the high-pressure fuel pump, the fuel injectors, and the spark plugs were replaced. The high-pressure test was performed. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure was associated with NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 144,532.

The high-pressure and low-pressure fuel pump malfunctioned and no, it is not available for inspection upon request. The car all of a sudden got stalling while running at 45 mph and got jerking continuously. After the incident, the car was taken to a dealer for a diagnosis and the dealer inspected that the high-pressure and low-pressure fuel pump got malfunctioned. There were NO warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure and they first appeared when the incident occured.

To Whom It May Concern, I am reporting a serious safety concern with my 2017 Honda CR-V related to the fuel/propulsion system. While driving, the vehicle will suddenly stop accelerating. At the same time, multiple warning messages appear on the dash, including alerts that the driver assist system, cruise control, and brake system are not functioning, along with other system warnings. This issue happens without warning and has occurred multiple times. It creates a dangerous situation, especially at highway speeds or in traffic, since the vehicle loses the ability to accelerate and several critical safety systems appear disabled. I am very concerned that this may be a defect in the fuel/propulsion system or an associated electrical/control system that could pose a risk to myself, my passengers, and other drivers. Please advise on the next steps for inspection and resolution.
My car decelerated on the highway from a speed of approximately 65 mph to 9 mph in a matter of seconds without any reason. I drove in the breakdown lane with flashers on to get to the next exit and upon entering the off-ramp my CRV suddenly accelerated back to normal. I took my vehicle to my Honda dealership and they told me they couldn't find anything wrong with it. It was showing no codes. The write-up did not mention my description of the deceleration on the highway. It discussed only my thought that my alternator might be bad. This was 8/19/25. Since this check at the dealership my car has done this exact act two more times on the highway for no reason. I am terrified to drive my car on the highway because I fear for my safety.
On 9/2/25 all the engine lights came on on the dash. I replaced the battery and it was fine the rest of the day. Then 9/3/25 once again all the lights are on and none of the ADAS work.
Occasionally, for no reason, automatically brakes and issues the brake warning notification despite no traffic in front of the vehicle. When a vehicle brakes for no reason in traffic, the risk is that you will be hit from behind.
My cruise control will not work. Lane departure is not working. All my lights are on in my new vehicle I just purchased. BAD FUEL INJECTORS seem to be the problem. Honda should recall these bad fuel injectors before a serious accident occurs.
All lights on dash coming on. Codes p0172 and p0303 pop up on obd scanner. Mafs , spark plugs, ignition coils and air filters all replaced. Car goes into limp mode. 124,800 miles. Dealer says fuel injectors failed and needs replacing, research shows this is a common issue for the. 2017 crv Honda edition. Mpg never dropped , remained. 33.1. When codes cleared, car functions like normal.

My vehicle braked hard on its own as I approached a metal pot hole cover in the street. It also flashes a BRAKE warning when I cross over shadows, such as from an overpass.
Water collecting in rear hatch frame. Have to remove the two rubber grommets and move hatch up and down to remove water. hearing water in frame when opening hatch.
the steering is sticking, causes driver to over correct. the problem was diagnosed by honda of asheboro nc. the rack and pinion steering was inspected by dealership and determined to be faulty. the problem started 2-3 yrs ago. at first it was very infrequent. i did not realize what was happening until recently when it has gotten much worse although there has been some hondas of the same make and model recalled (NHTSA 18V-663) my honda was not among them. my honda has 61000 miles and the exact same problem!
We kept Honda CRV EXL 2017 on time repair by the Honda dealership ,never missed one deadline of repair as recommended by the Honda repair shop. Now they are saying that head gasket is blown and engine has jammed. How can head gasket go bad randomly when maintenance was done regularly by the Honda dealer, who is fault it is ? Who should be paying for its repair?

The contact owned a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that after parking at a gas station/store, she locked the doors, and with the key fob in her hand, went into the store. The contact stated that the stranger had approached her at her residence prior to the incident. The contact reported that a stranger was able to gain entry and drive the vehicle on the freeway and crashed into some unknown vehicles. A police report was filed. It was unknown if there were any reported injuries. There was no fire. The contact was able to confirm that all the air bags deployed while retrieving her belongings. The vehicle was towed to a tow lot and deemed a total loss by the insurance company. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted four times. Additionally, she sent an email regarding the matter. The failure mileage was 74,000.
steering sticking vehicle is available for inspection when the steering sticks you have tendency to over correct Honda dealership has confirmed the problem with no warning first started happening occasionally about 2-3 yrs ago, has just become persistent in last 2 months. 2017 cr-v car has 61000 miles all though this model has had some safety issues in the past( NHTSA recall report 18v-663) they refuse to fix this problem unless I pay them over $5000
Steering is sticky and grabbing. There is a catch in the middle position. There is a warranty extension out for this problem but not for my VIN #. How do I get Honda to cover this? Problem has been progressing over the last month. This occurs at variable speeds.
On July 31, 2025, my 2017 Honda CR-V was diagnosed by a certified Honda dealership with complete air conditioning failure. The A/C compressor produced a loud knocking noise and was found to have leaked black debris (burned oil/metal), contaminating the entire system. I was informed the system required full replacement, totaling $4,500. The defect has disabled the ability to cool the vehicle cabin, which poses a risk to drivers with health conditions. It also affects window defogging and visibility, especially in humid, rainy conditions. This matches hundreds of similar complaints and class action lawsuits filed against Honda for known A/C system defects in 2016–2021 CR-V and Civic models. My car is outside the standard compressor warranty, and Honda refuses to provide assistance. This failure should be considered a safety hazard, particularly for individuals who require temperature control for medical reasons.
Steering doesn't feel right. Doesn't seem to steer correctly.
Numerous times over the life of the car all dash warning systems and lights activate while you are driving. Sometimes they persist after restarting engine. Numerous visits to dealer to address and finally they stated that fuel injectors need replaced. Searching this issue online seems to indicate this is a common event with 2017-18 CRVs like mine. I contacted Honda and they stated that there is no recall or warranty extension for an issue like this. The car is not safe to drive with all the alarms staying active. This started taking place in 2018 with only 30K miles and would happen rarely. But started to happen monthly in 2024 until I replaced the fuel injectors last September.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost motive power while the accelerator pedal was depressed, and the vehicle stalled. No warning light was illuminated. Several local dealers were contacted, but the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

Engine Head Gasket failure at 68,000 miles (8k miles after warranty). Vehicle enters limp mode at random, including total loss of power on the highway at speeds in excess of 60 miles an hour. All dashboard warning lights turn on due to misfire associated with coolant leaking into the combustion chamber. Appointment with dealership is pending.
Fuel injection going bad
This is the message I received from the service representative. Hi this is Will with Honda I checked out your car I heard the noise the noise is your BTC actuator timing chain actuator that you need a timing chain job unfortunately also found a full head gasket need fuel injectors as well give me a call I can go over everything it's expensive though…” This vehicle has been serviced exclusively by the same Honda dealership. There was a slight miss upon starting the vehicle that would go away upon driving, that was the reason for taking it in to be checked. No lights came on signaling a problem, no loss of power, no overheating and although the service representative mentioned a noise there was no noise that we could hear. This vehicle has only 108,000 carefully driven miles on it.
The electrical system periodically goes haywire - all warning lights come on and flash. It some cases, my car lost power and it was unsafe to drive. I was worried it would overheat. I have rebooted and sometimes it resets and sometimes it doesn't. it is extremely rough starting now. The electrical problem can start when i start the car and sometimes it happens while driving. with all warnings going, it concerns me that I would not know which alert might be real. The vehicle seems to short itself out. i have changed the battery more times than would be normal. It is draining the battery while sitting (no lights or other issues that would cause it). The electrical system flashing has been happening from the beginning but it is getting more frequent and doesn't reset. I have also taken it to a mechanic a d paid for various repairs and nothing helps.
The driver's side mirror wobbles. I took it to a repair shop and they confirmed that it was not the mirror but the base of the side mirror that is attached to the car door that wobbles. They said that it is a manufacturing defect. The passenger side mirror does not wobble. This seems to be a PREVALENT issue with Honnda CRVs online - the wobbly driver side mirror. This is uncomfortable to look at while driving - it can give you a headache or make the driver dizzy. Honda needs to make a recall about these defective drive-side side mirrors. We have a 2017 Honda CRV. My daughter recently got the car so I do not know how long this problem has been going on.
Cylinder 2 and Cylinder 3 misfire code, rough idling, loss of power Specific problems: Rough idling: The engine may feel shaky or unstable when the vehicle is stopped or idling, often due to incomplete combustion in one or more cylinders Hesitation or lack of power: You may notice your CR-V hesitating or losing power during acceleration, or a general reduction in performance, making it feel sluggish or difficult to drive Stalling: The engine may stall unexpectedly, especially at low speeds or when stopped, as a result of misfires disrupting normal engine operation Check Engine Light: The check engine light may come on or begin flashing, indicating that the vehicle’s onboard diagnostics have detected repeated misfires Vibration or shaking: You might feel abnormal vibrations through the steering wheel, seat, or floor, especially while idling Unusual noises: Listen for popping, sputtering, or knocking sounds from the engine, which can indicate incomplete combustion or irregular firing Poor acceleration or loss of power: You might notice reduced engine responsiveness, sluggish acceleration, or the inability to reach higher speeds easily Erratic RPM needle: The tachometer may fluctuate unpredictably due to inconsistent engine speed and combustion Smoke from the exhaust: Excessively rich mixtures from leaking injectors can result in black smoke coming from the exhaust pipe Difficulty starting or no start: The engine may struggle to start or fail to start if enough fuel isn’t being delivered to one or more cylinders
Our 2017 Honda CRV EX Body Control Module has to be replaced due to the alarm system coming on and the car trying to start itself along with a parasitic drain. I have driven Honda's my entire life because they are suppose to be reliable and I guess this is no longer the case. Very disappointed with this vehicle.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost automotive power. Several unknown warning lights were illuminated. In addition, the contact stated that an abnormal odor was inside the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and DTC: P0087 (Low fuel rail or System Pressure) was retrieved. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the vehicle was previously taken to a local dealer on several occasions, and the fuel injectors and spark plugs were replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 63,702.
Driving Honda crv 1.5L around 40mph when car went into limp mode check engine started flashing and almost caused a crash from stalling traffic. Took it to Honda dealership and stated that it was a costly blown head gasket. Within further investigating it's common for these 1.5L head gaskets to blow prematurely due to poor design that needs to be recalled.
ALL warning lights come on at once while driving. First occurrence happened during a snowy day. I immediately went to an independent facility to have the codes run as I was concerned with losing braking ability as it was one of the many lights saying there was an issue. The mechanic checked it for codes and listed all the faults I could see on the dash. Mechanic said most likely it was a battery problem, so the battery was tested and was fine. Safety at risk due to sudden cancellation of cruise control and not having emergency automatic braking. 2 independent repair shops have been able to reproduce the issue. One was able to clear the codes and have the issue be reproduced real-time connected to reader. It has not been inspected by the manufacturer or police insurance reps. The warning lamps are: all of them. Electrical, power steering, emerg. Braking, TPMS, LKAS, engine, etc. During the winter the lights stay on for weeks at a time. Spring and early summer significantly less. Summer time thus far has been higher than in the spring, but the time they are on is less (a day or two) Temperature is the only thing I noticed a real difference with. Cold was the worst. Not even having the vehicle warmed up would remove the lights. They turn on and off whenever they want.
At highway speed the steering becomes erratic and jerky.
Coolant and oil draining like crazy. Absurd about if smoke (white/blue) coming out of exhaust. At times the screen for the radio with just decide to not work.
All lights shows up on my cars dashboard and at first start it shake with vibration for 2 minutes then it stables even though on the highway when I try to accelerate it doesn’t go smoothly last time I have the same issue and paragon fixed it by changing alternator and reset by computer but still I am facing the same problem. They are always going through the temporary solution by resetting code sometimes changing battery or recommended some other parts although they never take seriously about my head gasket problem and because of that causes misfire. I need the permanent solution. It’s very frustrating for me to face that problem everyday.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel momentarily became difficult to turn in either direction.

American Honda extended the warranty for the A/C compressor shaft seal on the 2017 Honda CR-V to 10 years from the original purchase date, with no mileage limitation. This extended warranty covers the repair or replacement of the A/C compressor shaft seal if it leaks. This is due to a known corrosive material that they used in the system. My car failed this seal and they would replace this for free. However, the discharge hose on the same system also failed due to corrosion of the same material. The hose is not covered under the warranty and Honda will not fix the hose or even cover any percentage of the cost. Herb Chambers in Burlington won't do the AC comprssor shaft seal without the hose being replaced because the system will still leak. American Honda and Herb Chambers want me to pay $1400 for a repair to the discharge hose before they will perform the work on the compressor seal. If the corrosive material was the culprit for the shaft seal, then it is also the culprit on the discharge hose and I would like to make sure they are responsible for using this corrosive material and they should cover the whole repair. I would like to know my options.
It has not been looked at yet due to not having funds to get it looked at. I do know others have the same consistent issue with these models especially when they’d get around 70,000 miles. All of the warning lights the last few months would continue to cut on and off. Now they just stay on. The Car drives fine though but is a safety hazard since it can’t tell us if something is wrong.
All the dashboard warning lights come on. They will turn off at short intervals, but then come back on. I took the car to the dealer in 2024 and they diagnosed it as rear tire sensor problem. Paid over $800 to have this replaced and all the dashboard warning lights came back on the next day. Went back to the dealer and they then diagnosed it as bad fuel injector and quoted repair at over $1,200. We did not have the injector replaced as they could not guarantee fixing the fuel injector would turn the lights off as this seems to be a common reported problem in 2017 Honda CRVs. Over the past year the dashboard warning lights would come on and off at random intervals. Over the past two months, along with all warning lights remaining on, the car has now started to stall within the first 5 minutes of driving it. Due to the stalling, we took the car to an independent mechanic who followed the Honda service bulletin and did a full tune up on the car but all dashboard warning lights remain on and the car continues to stall at times.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that upon starting the vehicle, several unknown warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle was experiencing A/C system failures. The manufacturer was notified of the A/C system failure and related the failure to TSB Number: 23-040. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the spark plugs were misfiring. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred the following day. Additionally, the contact stated that the vehicle failed to exceed 5 MPH while driving. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer, where it was diagnosed that the #1, #2, and #3 fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 107,000.
While turning the steering wheel to make small adjustments in direction, the steering wheel has some resistance to a point and then loses resistance causing some over steer. I would use the term "sticky steering" to describe it. The problem can be reproduced any time. Symptoms first appeared around January, 2025. No error/warning lights on dash. Vehicle has not been inspected by anyone.
My Car 2017 Honda CRV with 57,000 miles started having the check engine light in the dashboard and bunch of lights came on in my dashboard. I took it to the Mechanic, and diagnostic was faulty fuel injectors I had to get it Repaired in order to pass the smoke check. I paid $1300. How does a car with low mileage had this kind of problem.
All the safety feature icons come on each time the vehicle is started and stay illuminated on the dashboard. It is unclear if these safety features would work in the event they are needed. Feel this is a safety concern that Honda is not addressing.
Within the past 2 months, while driving the car I have experienced 2 instances with the CMBS system unexpectedly applying the brakes, even though there was no obstacles it's path.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while attempting to reverse into a parking spot, the back over prevention display screen failed to function properly. The contact stated that the screen failed to display an image or remained frozen. There was no warning light illuminated. The local dealer was contacted; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed. The contact was informed that the VIN was not under recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 47,800.
Date of Incident: [XXX] Location: NYC, [XXX]. Mileage: 95,000 Description of Incident: On [XXX] while driving my 2017 Honda CR-V at approximately [XXX] at 20 mph I experienced a sudden brake system failure. When I pressed the brake pedal fully to stop the vehicle, the pedal felt extremely hard and resistant, and the vehicle continued moving, failing to slow or stop as expected and hitting the vehicle in front. While no major accident happened due to how slow I was going, This occurred as I was approaching a traffic light. I did not apply the electronic parking brake (EPB) during the incident. No warning lights were illuminated on the dashboard at the time of the failure. Immediately after the incident, the brakes began functioning normally again, suggesting an intermittent issue. I am concerned about the reliability of the brake system, especially given reports of brake issues in 2017–2019 CR-Vs. I have not yet had the vehicle inspected but plan to tow it to a Honda dealership or mechanic for diagnosis. I am reporting this to ensure the NHTSA is aware of this potential safety defect, which may be related to the ongoing investigation into 2017–2019 Honda CR-V brake systems. Please contact me for additional information if needed. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
While I’m driving the car suddenly breakes.
So for over a year my dash lights and I mean every light from tire pressure to ABS brake to lane assist every light was on. Then about three months four months ago it began going into limp mode just driving down the road. This is a 2017 Honda CRV over 100,000 miles on it took it into Honda of Hennessy in Woodstock Georgia. They said that it needed fuel injectors which over 300,000 recalls were done for the same Thing except mine cost me $2200 to fix what has happened to Honda. Before I could get it to a dealership because I live over an hour and a half away, the car would just shut down and I would have to pull over stop the car crank it back up hold my breath and go till the next time it would go into limp mode
Center display unit goes blank or screen changes from day to night. Beeps constantly as screen changes and will not recognize touch inputs or shut off.
All dash lights come on. has cylinder misfire. did some research it seems like is related to the fuel injectors. honda dealer wants to charge me 4300 for changing fuel injectors.
2017 Honda CR-V with 132118 miles has intermittently been experiencing all dash display alarms activating at the same time for past 25k miles. (ie) hill start assist, brake system problem, power steering system problem, vehicle stability assist problem, etc... This also disabled the lane keep assist and cruise control features on the car. Dealership ran diagnostic and found code P0172 indicating fuel system too rich and confirmed with a failed air/fuel ratio test. This indicated the car needs complete fuel injector replacement.
The driver side, curtain airbag deployed incorrectly. The airbag deployed at an angle. Instead of the airbag going down to provide a barrier between the window and the driver, the air bag slid to the right hand side of the driver's head. This meant that the driver's head was squeezed between the window and the airbag for two or three minutes until the airbag deflated. The car seat airbag was deployed as well. The collision happened at a 30 degree angle. The driver was stopped and the oncoming driver was traveling 10-15 mph. The rear door on the driver's side was struck and was the only door damaged. No windows were damaged. The vehicle is a total loss and is being towed by the insurance company to be auctioned and salvaged.
ALL dash lights came on and it showed all safety systems had faults. Took it to the dealership and was told I needed injectors. I have looked into this issue and many CR-V models have had warranty extensions for this exact issue. Lucky me mine is not one of the one's in the VIN group for this extension. So I am facing a $2,000 bill. The car is still driveable but its hard to feel safe with random dash lights coming on.
Driving 25 mph on a straight road, the automatic braking system engaged with beep sound only but not on the dash display as it should. the car was suddenly braked to a stop. nothing was near or in front of the car.
All dashboard lights go and stay on on random occurrences, sometimes going off on their own but mostly when I reboot the system. This occurs when the car has idled for more than a few minutes. Happening since 2021 and 30k miles. Defect fuel injection part that has since been changed by Honda but with no recall. Replaced battery and issue continued to occur. Recall needed!
On startup all safety warning lights flashed on and disabled all safety driving aids. This persisted and took to Honda dealer. Their diagnostics revealed faulty fuel injectors with code P0304 failed number 4 cylinder. Recommend replacing fuel injector go for $2000.
The vehicle's all safety warning lights are turning on. The vehicle was taken to a Honda dealer for diagnostic testing, who reported that it requires new fuel injectors at a cost of $1,700.00. In researching the issue, it appears that this is an ongoing problem with multiple 2017 and 2018 Honda CRVs.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, several unknown warning lights illuminated. Additionally, there was a misfire coming from the engine. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with a failure of the fuel injection system. The contact was informed that the fuel injection system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced an unknown recall; however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The contact was advised to contact the NHTSA Hotline to report the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 111,783.
Head gasket failure due to ineffective cooling between cylinder 2 and 3
Electronic power steering fault due to internal short inside electronic steering rack and pinion assembly.
The car first does not respond to the key fob and when you look inside the dash is on despite not using push-to-start and you have to use the manual key to open the door. Then the car alarm will go off and continue not to repond to the KeyFob until you, once again, use the manual key to unlock and silence th e car. The only solution I have gotten is to take the battery out of my key fob and disable push-to-start function. They already replaced my Key Fob AND car battery and the problem has persisted. No recall information as of yet and I'm taking it to the dealership for further scrutiny...
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the ABS was making an abnormal dinging sound, and there were several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle went into LIMP Mode, lost motive power, and shut off unintendedly. The failure had gotten worse over time. The contact stated that the failure was related to Technical Service Bulletin: 22-002. The contact called a master mechanic and was informed that the vehicle had gone into LIMP Mode to protect the engine. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed and determined that the fuel injectors were leaking into the spark plugs. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 117,000. The VIN was not available.
Engine was overheating due to a defective head gasket. “The head gasket provides a seal that keeps that pressure contained within the engine’s cylinder. The head gasket also provides a seal for internal engine water and oil passages“ (Honda). I have found hundreds of others with similar defects for the Honda 2017-2018 1.5L engines. I had no warning until the engine was too hot and the car alerted me to pull over to cool the engine. Car is regularly serviced by Honda dealership.
Sudden loss of power. Unable to accelerate. Car towed to Honda dealer who confirmed blown turbo and likely internal engine damage. This was the first year the turbo 4 was installed in the Honda CR-V and this problem has been reported previously. We were led to believe from Consumer Reports that Honda had extended the warranty on cars with this engine, but dealer said no.
The AEB system is falsely being triggered, causing a sudden stop or drastic slow down of my CRV when there's nothing present to trigger the system. My car would drastically slow down, nearly causing a rear end collision from another vehicle. I've experience the problem on multiple occasions, in different locations, while going different speeds. The car has not experienced any other electronic or mechanical issue. The warning message did show on the dash as the car came to a halt.
Vehicle head gasket blown and fuel injection problem $6,700 repair. Merging on to the highway the car wouldn’t accelerate and went into limp mode. Mechanic found water in one of the cylinders after pressure testing the coolant system. Only 97,000 miles on vehicle. This vehicle has been an in town driver. This should not have happened.
While driving down a main road, with no other vehicles or obstacles around/in front of me, the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) beeped/flashed and my car came to almost a dead stop in the middle of the road. This happened without warning, or any previous warning/issues. Luckily no accident happened, as I don't believe a vehicle was behind me (but this could've gone horribly wrong had there been). It was a very windy day. I took it to a Honda dealership the same week, they found no issues and also could not reproduce this. I called Honda Customer Service, who was apologetic, but really no help, and only filed a complaint for me. I see this as being a high potential safety hazard for accidents, etc., and it makes me nervous now driving my vehicle, especially since this is something I cannot turn off. I wanted to file a report here as well, in hopes that investigations are happening for this issue.
The dash warning lights all come on when the vehicle is started. Numerous Warning messages scroll across the dash indicating just about every system on the vehicle is malfunctioning. The collision warning system stops working, the lane change warning stops working, cruise control stops working. I have no idea what else could have stopped working that could mean the difference between life and death. My vehicle has had this problem for almost two years now. This problem stops after disconnecting the battery for 15 minutes then it comes back unpredictably. Honda dealerships just guess what the problem is because there are no definitive error codes. They randomly want to change parts like fuel injectors, onboard computer, brakes, battery, and others, and charge thousands of dollars and will not refund the money when the problem reappears. This problem is putting drivers at serious risk and Honda has done absolutely nothing to find and repair the problem. There are hundreds of reports of this problem online and Honda has not responded. Honda dealerships are making tons of money from this issue and doing nothing to solve the problem.
The steering sticks when driving straight or in gradual turns to left and right at highway speeds, slight movement overrides the sticking spot and very slight effort moves it past but sticking is always present
The infotainment system goes dark intermittently without warning. The screen blinks, showing the "Brightness" feature. Dangerous as using this system to navigate on the highway. I cannot find a TSB or recall for this problem?
Fuel injectors have failed on this car 2x before it has hit 120k miles. First was at 50k ish. Honda will not acknowledge this as an issue, even though it is an extremely common issue with all of the 1.5L engines on civics, accords and their other cars in this engine type. My mechanic has checked the service records and the most common issue with these cars, and this is a super common issue, always requiring fuel injectors to repair it. Car idles very very badly when started, and should not be having all of these issues on a well-maintained 8 year old car. It causes a check engine light to appear and an “emissions system issue” warning to appear on the car. It’s only been 3/4 years with the 2nd set of injectors (which were replaced under my optional extended warranty on the car, purchased through Honda). But I was not warned that this was a common issue until going to an independent service technician when my check engine light came on. I
I started vehicle and all warning lights on dash popped up and began scrolling through/flashing. As a vehicle owner, I was startled as it was unsettling to see all the warnings pop up. It appeared every safety feature/component on the vehicle was compromised. I immediately contacted the local Honda dealership as they suggested diagnostics were needed. Dealership invoice states "Diagnose check engine light - pull codes, diagnose to failure". Dealership invoice further states "Tech Verified Concern. Tech scanned system for codes and found code P0301 stored for misfire cylinder. Tech ran air fuel test and failures came back on Cylinders 1 and 3. Tech diagnosed to failing injectors, recommend replacing". After doing some research, it appears this particular vehicle has a history with similar problems. I have a product update letter from December 2018 which refers to the P0301 code. In addition, I have a Warranty Extension letter dated July 2019, which refers to the same issue and the P0301 code. The letter states that to ensure confidence in the product, the powertrain warranty was extended from the original 5 year/60,000 miles to 6 years with unlimited mileage from the original sale date. Unfortunately, my vehicle is a 2017, so although I qualify under the mileage I do not qualify under the 6 year time frame. The current mileage on my vehicle is 56,000 miles.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V.

On a separate occasion, April 21, 2025, the contact was coming out of the store when the vehicle made unknown sounds and vibrating. All the warning lights illuminated. The contact stated while driving at 45 MPH, on the highway and the vehicle stopped. The contact tried to merge to the side of the road. The contact contacted the dealer and a tow truck was sent, the vehicle was towed to the dealer. The contact obtained a loaner vehicle and was advised by the dealer, that the vehicle had been diagnosed with fuel injector failure and spark plugs needed to be replaced due to the turbo failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 130,000.
The head gasket is failing. The vehicle loses power on the freeway and on city streets, putting the driver & passengers at increase risk for collision. The dealer diagnosed the problem. We've had warning lights & symptoms since early in 2024, with no success in resolving the problem. Coil pack replaced in December 2024 and again in Feb 2025.
Fuel injector malfunction in 2017 Honda CRV EX. Getting all the warning lights. Mostly it shows Emission system problems.
We have had this problem more than once but this morning it nearly caused an accident. My husband was driving to work and all of a sudden the car's automatic breaking system caused the car to stop dead, causing the car behind him to have to swerve up on the sidewalk to avoid hitting him. He was not going over a metal plate, there waDSs no car stopped in front of him. This has happened at least ten times in the time we have owned the car and we have been INCREDIBLY lucky that it has not caused an accident, but it's still clearly a problem. We have complained about this to the dealership when we bring it in but they just shrug since they can't reproduce it and it seems to happen randomly. Just all of a sudden driving along BRAKE will flash on the dashboard and the car will stop abruptly.
Engine was overheating due to head gasket failure. Engine overheat happened suddenly when driving on highway and had to slow down and stop. Problem has been confirmed by two Honda dealers and one local mechanic with full inspection. Engine overheat massage showed.
Multiple times when driving the vehicle will slam on the brakes without warning when there is nothing in front of the vehicle. I have taken it to Honda multiple times and they cannot fix it due to being unable to recreate the spontaneous issue. Also, they did try to recalibrate the sensor, and it still did not work. I don't feel safe driving this car and can't sell it knowing it is dangerous.
I have had my car taken to Honda dealerships with an issue of all my warning lights would come on. No one has been able to fix the issue. The spark plugs, battery, air filters, have been replaced and diagnostic tests were done. The warning lights would stop for a couple of months and then start again. The last time all the warning lights came on my car began to stall and not got over 8 - 10 mph when I would start to drive. I would pull over, turn off my car, restart, then it would be ok to drive. The part that scared me was when I was on a busy highway, traveling close to 65 - 70 mph and my car stalled/lost power. Thankfully, I was able to pull to the side of the highway without getting myself or anyone hurt. I have since stopped driving on the highway. The last mechanic (Honda certified) has told me my head gasket needs replaced. Not something I would expect but it does explain a lot of the issues I have been having. My car is parked until I am able to get it repaired.
The rear windshield of the car exploded during a routine drive without any apparent cause. The car was inspected by a Montgomery County police officer and was driven to the local Honda dealership. The local Honda dealership could not offer any additional insights into the root cause of the incident.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the vehicle hesitated while depressing the accelerator pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, where the spark plugs were replaced; however, the failure returned soon after repair. The independent mechanic was notified and informedof the contact of NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The contact performed a VIN search on the NHTSA website and discovered that the vehicle was not included in the recall. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 131,000.
Failed fuel injectors. This is a common issue in many 2017-18 CRVs with numerous complaints. This is a safety risk as it has caused a forced shutdown of numerous safety features including: all anti-collision systems, lane departure sensing, traction control, etc The problem has been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No

The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while her husband was driving approximately 70 MPH, several unknown warning lights illuminated, and the vehicle started losing motive power. The contact stated that her husband depressed the accelerator pedal; however, the vehicle failed to respond as needed. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to accelerate above 50 MPH. The contact stated that while ascending an incline, the vehicle failed to perform as needed. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic to be diagnosed or repaired. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 23V858000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The manufacturer was informed of the failure and referred the contact to the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 144,699.
2017 HONDA CRV had several warning lights came on and dealer indicated it was fuel injection problem. Dealer charged $ 1500 and fixed problem. Again this year same warnings light came on. Dealer is indicating it's due to Timimg chain issue and dealer wants to pull parts from Engibe to see what the problem is and depending on what the problem is fix it. Dealer wants to charge more money depending on what they find and is high cost item. Delaer is not specific.
My 2017 CR-V (~$80k miles) will randomly fire every system or warning alert on the dashboard. This includes vital or important alerts like Brakes, Check engine light, Tire pressure, etc. There has been no way to reset it, and it persists through car restarts, system reboots, and driving. The first time this happened was [XXX], and I was able to reset it. However, it has returned a month and a half later ([XXX]) and there has been no remedy or reset that has worked. This issue is extremely dangerous, as it completely mitigates the safety features put in place for this vehicle. With all of the system warnings misfiring and no way to reset or check which are legitimate versus a complication, I am putting myself and others at risk if I drive. I will not know if there is a true issue with a tire, my engine, my brakes... I need my car but am wary of driving it now to keep myself and others safe. It also makes some features inaccessible (i.e., cruise control). I conducted further research prior to taking it to the dealership to better understand the potential cause and what could be done. After conducting that research, it seems this is a VERY common and fairly well-known issue. I have linked one of several forums demonstrating the scope of this issue. Example forum: [XXX] The system misfires are being diagnosed as issues with the fuel injectors, and owners are getting told to replace those fuel injectors to remedy the issue (cost of which equals around $1,400-2,200). Few also report that following installation of new fuel injectors, the issue has come back. Not everyone has ~$2k to fix an issue that is so common it should have already been addressed by Honda.

Fuel injectors are bad. $2300 at the dealership to fix it. Mine went out in my driveway so I guess I’m lucky. There are a ton of these on the road and many are having this exact problem.

Fuel pump malfunction causing my vehicle to stall and suddenly decrease speed. Potential of causing accidents when it occurred. Problem was confirmed and repaired at a mechanic. Engine light came on after the problem started.
Vehicle braked to a sudden stop while crossing intersection which was completely clear of any traffic. The road surface had street car rail lines which were well maintained and even. We were lucky to be wearing seat belts at the time. This is the second occasion it happened. I pray that it will not happen during freeway driving speed.

The CMBS system malfunctions and phantom brakes when there isn’t anything obstructing the road. It has done it 5 or 6 times, and the dealership can’t do anything to fix it.
Honda CRV has a software glitch where all warning lights start flashing. This has happened 3 times in past one year . Dealer wanted $150 to $200 for diagnostics . When I checked internet there are multiple users who are having this issue . When I contacted Honda they said they can do nothing as it’s not an active recall issue . The entire system needs to be updated by Honda free of charge for existing customers as this is a major safety issue

Vehicle unexpectedly begins to start flashing all warning systems while simultaneously losing excessive power. Unexpected ADAS system malfunction may cause the vehicle to break unexpectedly creating unsafe conditions or driving hazards for driver, passengers and others on the road. There is a significant loss of power, again, creating dangerous conditions while driving through busy traffic at high speeds or driving uphill. - Hill Start Assist Problem - Adaptive Cruise Control - Collision Mitigation System - Road Departure Mitigation System - Electric Parking Brake - Tire Pressure Monitor - Emissions system - All Wheel Drive - Brake System Problem - Brake Hold - Power Steering System - Vehicle Stability Assist Attempts to resolve issue Attempt # 1: Honda did a software update, resolved the issue for about four-five months (December 2020).... Mileage 49,504 # 2: Replaced Battery and Spark Plugs (April 2021) # 3: Appointment Scheduled for May 12th, 2021.... Mileage 54,330 #4: Disconnected battery mileage 96,000+ #5: New Spark plugs and new battery mileage 97,000+ The first time this occurred I was driving with my wife and two children. We were traveling down hill, a narrow road which is steep and has any sharp turns. As the system failures began to light up the car became extremely unsafe. There was very little control of the brake system as well as the steering system. Fortunately we avoided a potentially deadly scenario. Once we came to to level terrain where we could eventually slow down enough to stop the car, it was shuttering the whole way until we found a safe spot to pull over nearby. The car was then towed and serviced by Honda of Ithaca (Ithaca, NY). That same dealer said the resolved the issue with confidence, that it just needed a software upgrade. The concern here is that there seems to be no resolution for this issue and no warning as to when this could and seems to be will happen again.
Braking system. Vehicle brakes did not brake and vehicle skidded over gravel and a driveway culvert. Vehicle was considered total loss because the airbag went off. My safety and others' was put at risk. Other questions, answer is UNKNOWN.
We bought this vehicle new in 2017 and now have about 78K miles on it. Since we have owned it there have been SEVERAL (at least 7) occasions where we are driving along on the highway at 35-70MPH (depending on the speed limit) and the emergency forward collision braking system suddenly applies the brakes for no reason. This has happened during daylight and nightime on the open road with no vehicles or objects anywhere in front of us or close to the side of us and, on a few occasions, nearly causing vehicles behind us to crash into us because the brakes come on unexpectedly and we are unable to do anything about it. Early on, we reported this a couple times to our Honda dealer and we were told, "that can happen if there is blowing rain or snow or even a bird flying buy, it is normal so don't worry about it." Well, it IS something to worry about because it randomly happens again and again, and we recently almost had a huge accident on Interstate 79 because of it! What is most bothersome about this DEFECT in design or implementation is that the driver has no way of knowing in advance it is going to happen because it is a random occurrence with no rhyme or reason behind it, and there is nothing the driver can do to prevent it or minimize its effects! PLEASE, investigate this and force it to be fixed because lives could easily be lost from this phantom braking if none have been lost yet!
In 2 separate incidents, the vehicle has applied the brakes on its own, with no obstacle in sight ahead of it. One time the braking brought the vehicle to a complete stop, the other time it started hard braking, then the braking stopped. Both times were in daylight with no animals or any other object ahead of the vehicle. One of the incidents nearly caused a collision with a vehicle following from the rear that would not have been expecting the sudden stop.
I replaced fuel injectors in my 2017 honda crv in September 2024 at Northtown Honda in Buffalo, NY. In November 2024 my girlfriend was driving the vehicle in Michigan and the car slowed down to below 20 mph on the highway and flashed all dashboard warning lights, what Honda refers to as "limp mode". This almost caused her get hit by a semi truck. The car was towed to Honda of Grand Blanc and I was told it needs a new turbo. The turbo was replaced and then in December 2024 the car again broke down while I was visiting Toronto, Canada. I had to pay for a tow back to Northtown Honda where I was informed that the vehicle needs a new engine and turbo. I have taken very good care of my vehicle, always done proper maintenance and oil changes. This model is known for some oil dilution problems and I was never informed of that from Northtown Honda where I regularly maintenance my vehicle. The car is currently at Northtown Honda as they told me the bill is around $12k and I can't afford to pay that.
The vehicle airbag warning light 'SRS' displays randomly. We paid almost 200 for a diagnosis and have been told the passenger airbag needs to be replaced at a cost of 800. The Diagnostic code is B0020-13 "open or increased resistance in the left side airbag inflator". I have contacted Honda and they denied any 'good will' service to replace it due to the age and mileage of the car. We drive around 20k/yr. We do regular maintenance. Honda cannot confirm if the airbag will function properly. We have not 'worn out' the airbag as it has never been used but I do expect it to function in an accident. We bought the Touring model of the CR-V for the added feature of LED headlights. Safety is a high priority and I expect Honda to stand behind their safety features.
I was driving about 25 miles per hour, there were no cars in front of me (in either direction). The car suddenly slammed on the brakes for no reason. My passenger and I were both thrown towards the steering wheel and dashboard, things came flying from the back seat to the front, falling down by the pedals. I was very nearly rear ended, the car behind me was able to swerve to the left but was extremely angry. The car went into neutral, but possibly because something came from the back seat and hit the gearshift, I'm not sure about that. I was stuck in neutral with traffic horns blaring at me. If I'd have been pulling out into traffic when this happened I would easily have been hit broadside. I brought my car to the dealer, they said there was nothing wrong and that perhaps I didn't understand how the system works. I'm certain that it is not meant to bring the car to a screeching halt when there is literally nothing in front of you anywhere.
Well maintained vehicle with less than 86,000 miles and all 4 fuel injectors failed, causing check engine light, which caused all assistive device systems to turn off (collision avoidance, abs, traction control, etc.). In researching the issue, these injectors are failing in this make/model frequently at mileages well before you would expect a fuel injector to wear out, suggesting there is a defect in the injectors used in this model year CRV.
The engine is not receiving any fuel to start and idle car.
2017 Honda Crv All warning lights are on- the vehicle has no driving power- It was diagnosed at Hilton Head Honda as needing a major repair or turbo charger and I am out of warranty
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, there were several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that there was a misfire in cylinder #1, causing the fuel injectors to fail. The contact was informed that the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 56,601.
Fuel Injector Failure in traffic resulting in complete loss of power
Fuel Injector Failure in traffic resulting in head gasket rupture and complete engine failure
I was driving on a major highway at 60mph when all of a sudden the car started to automatically brake intermittently with warnings flashing. I slowed down to below 30mph in the right lane and put my flashers on traveling to the next off ramp, while the car continued to brake intermittently and not respond appropriately to applying the gas. Several warnings flashed, including: Emergency Braking system problems; Crash Mitigation Problem; Transmission System Problem; Adaptive Cruise Control Problem. I was lucky to get to a safe spot without being rear-ended. I am having the car towed to a dealer tomorrow.
The vehicle has a consistent problem where all dashboard warning lights come on at the same time, sometimes when this happens the vehicle enters what they call limp mode and won't go above 10-20 mph. This occurred multiple times to me and recently on the highway where a tractor trailer almost hit my vehicle because of the loss of speed with no brake lights. It has been to multiple honda dealerships where most recently I was told it was fuel injectors. I replaced the fuel injectors and it happened again this time the dealership told me to replace the turbo. Did that and on the way home from the dealership the lights come back on. There should be a class action law suit against honda for this common issue that they don't take seriously. Wait until someone actually is hurt by this problem.
I took my CRV to replace the tires and get the brakes done. The mileage was 134583. While in the shop the mechanic showed me the brake lines for the front. Both front brake lines had large bulges, balloon-like, and appeared ready to burst. It seemed unusual for both brake lines to exhibit the same failure, at the same time, through regular wear and tear. In reviewing available data, brake lines are expect to last the life of the vehicle and this certainly did not, presenting a potential safety risk. I asked the mechanic to provide me with the brake lines, which I have included photos of below, and will share with Honda (Heritage Honda in Bel Air, MD) where the vehicle was purchased. Note the bulges in the photo are much less once the brake lines were disconnected; however the area where the bulges were is still apparent.
I have repeatedly had to bring my car into the shop (6 times now, only owned it for 5 months) to have the spark plugs and/or fuel injectors replaced multiple times. The car will suddenly start shuddering when trying to accelerate over 2 RPM. It has also stalled twice (while accelerating it slowed down to a stop in the middle of the road) and the engine light will flash. Mechanics have noted misfires in the engine and that the plugs/injector are getting clogged and dirty very quickly. I don't know much about vehicles, but I know I should not have to be replacing the spark plugs and fuel injectors 2-3 times in 5 months of ownership as I've never had to replace them in previous Honda vehicles that were owned for 5+ years.
Experienced a continuous "sticky steering" problem at about 50K miles, causing a potentially dangerous condition at moderate to highway speeds. Extra force was required to steer away from the center and a slight clicking noise could be heard when the steering wheel was moved. On 5/31/24, the dealer diagnosed the problem per safety recall service bulletin 18-103 and stated that the EPS steering gearbox needed to be replaced. However, our VIN # was not included in the recall and we had to pay for the repair. The part was on backorder and was not received and installed until 9/10/24.
Check engine light came on. Smelled fuel . Brought to dealer and found out top of fuel pump was cracked. There's a recall for the same issue on 23-25 vehicles. Want recall extended to receive a refund for repairs.
My 2017 Honda CRV throws up ALL warning lights regarding TPMS, Lane Keep Assist, Cruise, Engine, etc...I've replaced the battery. I've taken it to the dealer and they just say we don't know what it is and we would like to hold it for 24-48hrs to do a diagnostic which is $250 out of pocket without a fix. Multiple forums state that this is a consistent problem with the 2017-2021 model years. One common fix is fuel injector replacement, but that only temporarily fixes the issue then all the lights come on again. It's a hazard and since all mechanisms are controlled by electronics, we need Honda to fix the issue or look into it as it's very dangerous to drive when dealers can't even isolate the issue.
Driving and all dashboard lights come on and cruise, lane assist, hill descent, emergency brakes, steering assist, etc. is all disabled. Come to dealer & they say it’s due to fuel injector failure which is known across these 2017 Honda CRVs, but they have no recall.
The driver-side seat belt does not lock as of 11/4/24.
I was driving my dogs to their grooming appt and they were sitting in the front passenger seat around 10am. I was driving a little under the speed limit of 40. There were no cars in front of me but there was behind and to the left of me driving. I was not approaching a stop sign or stop light, just driving down the boulevard, when out of the blue the emergency automatic breaking system applied the brakes very hard. I had my seat belt on, but my dogs flew to the floor of the front passenger seat. I was so concerned about my dogs I didn’t even look to see if someone almost rear ended me, but there was NOT a collision luckily. I pulled into a parking lot and checked on my dogs. Obviously our safety was at risk because the brakes applied themselves right out on the busy road with no warning at all and for no reason. There was nobody in front of me and no obstructions when the brakes applied themselves. I have not reported this problem to the dealer but I plan to after this incident. It has actually happened a few other times, but I was by myself the other times. Noone has inspected the vehicle and component for this problem, namely because it has not been the cause of an accident or crash so far luckily. There were no warning lamps, messages or symptoms prior to the car activating the emergency braking system, although once the brake was applied the flashing “brake” sign came on the screen. There was no warning for any previous occurence either, as I mentioned this has happened a few times before.
The car had just 44,242 miles when this problem started on 8/21/2024. Two months later, the problem persists. The safety systems of the car fail upon startup and remain this way for multiple cycles of driving the car. The reality is that I cannot check enough boxes above because the form doesn't allow me. The following warnings all come up at the same time: - Emission System Problem - Brake System Problem - Brake Hold System Problem - Power Steering System (EPS) Problem - Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Problem - Hill Start Assist Problem - Adaptive Cruise Control Problem - Collision Mitigation System Problem - Road Departure Mitigation System Problem - Electronic Parking Brake Problem - Tire Pressure Monitor Problem Eventually, after some amount of time or some number of restarts, the warnings clear and the safety systems work again. Then, the problem reappears.
Several times the braking system has engaged thinking there was something in the path of the car when there was not. My daughter & I were almost rear ended. It has happened on numerous occasions. Has not been taken in for service for this issue. There was no warning prior to each occurance
The fuel injectors failed on September 30th. Sitting in a parking lot when all of the warning lights on the dashboard started coming on. We immediately called the dealership and got the car in the next day. They thought it might be the battery. No prior problems. Dealership called and said it was the fuel injectors. Dealership said it was a known issue on 2017-18 CRVs. Google search confirmed many CRV owners withe same issue. Contacted Honda America to ask for compensation since this appeared to be a known issue. They did agree to pay for half of the $1,400 repair. They recommended contacting NHTSA to report the issue as well. We had 91,691 miles on this vehicle at that time.
I took my car into dealership over a year ago because of the steering. They didn’t have time to look at it so I took it to a repair shop. He drove the car and told me to take it to dealership because of the steering. He could feel the hesitation when driving. He said it should still be under warranty. Took it back to dealership another day . After waiting 2 hours I already knew when the technician came back they were going to charge me with something because it had been a 2 hour wait. He said I had a loose bolt!!! Really!! They didn’t even drive the car. Even after the so called loose bolt I’m still having the same issue. They said the car was no longer under warranty. There’s a clicking noise it makes and I’m scared to drive it long distances. I’ve had to rent a car. I pray every time I drive it. I know it’s going to be expensive to have it fixed. I pray you include this car in your recall.
For the 3rd time in 18 months my car has just stopped accelerating on the freeway and all of my sensors go off at once, my touch screen and speakers go on and off repeatedly. Honda here in Reno, NV keeps replacing my fuel injectors (and making me pay for it) which seems to resolve it for a short while and then it all happens again. This is incredibly unsafe for this car to just stop accelerating at 60 mph… I drive m ya on in this car. Please look into this there are so so many people having this same exact problem with the same car and same year! Just Google “2017 Honda CRV all sensors not accelerating” And “2017 Honda CRV fuel injector problems” Please please help
The vehicle experienced multiple system failures, indicated by error messages in 11 different systems, including the check engine light. The affected systems were Tire Pressure Monitoring, Brake System, Electronic Power Steering, Vehicle Stability Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Road Departure Mitigation, Electric Parking Brake, Emissions System, Brake Hold System, Hill Start Assist, and Collision Mitigation System. The vehicle was checked with a code scanner. The codes retrieved were “DTC 0300 Random Misfire, DTC P0301 No1 Cylinder Misfire, P0172 Fuel System (B1) Too Rich and DTC P0304 No4 Cylinder Misfire” No other system faults were detected despite the earlier errors. The direct injection fuel injectors and engine design seem to be the probable cause. There has been no inspection by the manufacturer, police, or insurance representatives at this time. The vehicle and components are available for inspection upon request. There were no pre-warning lamps, messages, or symptoms before the failure, suggesting the underlying problem may have been developing over a long period without detection. When these errors were displayed, critical safety systems in the vehicle were rendered inoperable, posing a significant risk to my safety and others on the road. An emissions system issue should not have caused multiple safety systems to be disabled, as this could potentially lead to a crash or other hazardous situations. This issue is well-documented online as a common problem with the Gen5 Honda CR-V, with many owners reporting similar experiences. Despite widespread complaints, Honda has not taken corrective action, such as issuing a software update to prevent safety system failures or acknowledging a potential manufacturing defect in the fuel system and fuel injectors. This problem is leading to premature and frequent fuel injector replacements. This can also increase potential safety hazards along with risks for injury or death.
After filling up the car with gas the cabin smells like gasoline for the first 25 miles then goes away. We are not topping off the gas and it is a strong noxus odor. The car was taken in once when it was new for this issue it went away temporarily but came back now that the car is out of warranty.
My family's 2017 Honda CR-V has been experiencing a persistent issue where multiple dashboard warning lights—such as lane mitigation, brake, ABS, check engine, check brakes, TPMS, and traction control—consistently appear whenever the vehicle is started. Initially intermittent, these alerts are now continuous, directly impacting the car's safety, particularly with traction control entirely disabled. This has resulted in several instances of tire slippage and loss of control on wet roads, raising serious safety concerns. Despite taking the vehicle to Honda, where it was suggested that replacing the fuel injectors for approximately $1,500 might resolve the issue, similar reports from other owners suggest that this solution may not fully address the underlying problem. The issue began around 80,000 miles without any prior incidents, and I am seeking a more definitive resolution to ensure the vehicle's safety and reliability.
Traveling on open road, Collision Mitigation Braking System errantly engaged putting vehicle in a hard, emergency stop condition. Nothing in front of us but empty road. Both driver and passenger were thrown forward. Driver sustained neck whiplash injury. The problem will be reported to dealer on Monday. This is a very know issue with this vehicle. The internet is full of complaints and you have already received hundreds of complaints. Add mine to the list. Please address this.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the steering suddenly turned independently, requiring the contact to manually return the steering wheel to the center. The vehicle returned to normal functionality, but the failure became a regular occurrence. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer or an independent mechanic. The vehicle was not repaired. After investigating the failure, the contact related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V663000 (Steering); but the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was 50,000.
After driving for a few miles, the engine stall / studders while driving. Speed limited to 9 mph. Issue is intermittent. It has happened 6 times in one evening causing us to have to pull over to the edge of the freeway. The car is not currently doing this but the symptoms are the same as described in “Safety Recall: 2018–20 CR-V Fuel Pump Motor”
Emergency braking system activated twice in a period of about 5 minutes without any objects/ cars in pathway. Speed approx 40 mph in bright daylight it has never done that before and I deactivated it until I can have mechanic check it out.
See attached document for complaint.
In June 2024 the first warning that appeared was an emissions warnings. The vehicle seemed to be running fine despite the warning. After the warning was cleared, the vehicle continued to run well. At the beginning of August the vehicle experienced multiple system failures, indicated by error messages in 11 different systems, including the check engine light. The affected systems were Tire Pressure Monitoring, Brake System, Electronic Power Steering, Vehicle Stability Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Road Departure Mitigation, Electric Parking Brake, Emissions System, Brake Hold System, Hill Start Assist, and Collision Mitigation System. When these errors were displayed, critical safety systems in the vehicle were rendered inoperable, posing a significant risk while driving. An emissions system issue should not have caused multiple safety systems to be disabled. After the errors occurred, the vehicle was taken to a dealership for inspection. The dealer identified that the emissions system was running too rich, causing the fuel injectors to become soiled, leading to engine misfires and reduced power/fuel economy. The dealership reported the issue as “DTC P0303 No3 Cylinder Misfire, P0172 Fuel System (B1) Too Rich.” No other system faults were detected despite the earlier errors. I will get the new fuel injectors installed as soon as I can afford it. Unfortunately this issue is well-documented online as a common problem with the Gen5 Honda CR-V, with many owners reporting similar experiences. Despite widespread complaints, Honda has not acknowledged a potential manufacturing defect in the fuel system and has not issued a recall.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 70 MPH, the check engine warning light illuminated, and the vehicle lost motive power. The contact was able to veer to the side of the road. The contact resumed driving, but the vehicle failed to exceed 20 MPH. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The contact stated that the failure recurred while driving. The contact pulled over to the side of the road. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle, and the vehicle responded as needed while driving. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 153,300.
I was driving about 25mph past a school and the car automatically braked for no reason. Nothing was in the road, no cars near me. I’ve driven that road hundreds of times in the past 4 years without incident.
The collision mitigation braking system malfunctioned. The car would be available for inspection upon request. After the light turned green I entered the intersection, going approx 20mph, when suddenly the car braked on its own without a car/object in front of my vehicle. I could hear the beeping from the collision mitigation system at the same time. Since I did not know the car was about to stop, I was unable to prevent my dog from falling forward and striking the dashboard. Although myself, my dog and the people behind me were at risk, no injuries were sustained. The person behind me was able to stop luckily. I will be scheduling yet another diagnostic with Honda, though I just did that a few months ago when all the warning lights came on. After the injectors were replaced at that time, they were able to turn off the warning lights. I do not believe they will be able to recreate the problem.
When the car was around 60k miles, all the warning lights started appearing. I took it to repair shop and they did some testing and cannot find any issues. The warning lights stopped for two weeks and all warning lights showed up. Initially they changed a spark plug. The warning lights stopped for another week and reappeared . This time I was told all fuel injector need to be changed. Honda has recall on almost all vehicles except my crv. There were no parts in any dealership. I had no choice but to change all fuel injectors which cost me $1600. Since this particular part is defective in almost all Honda vehicles, I should get this repaired at no charge. It is the same type of fuel injectors in all vehicles, I think Honda should expand recall to crv too. I called Honda. They told me that there is no recall for CRV. But I saw many crv owners with the same issue
While driving warning lights on dashboard display the following issues: 1. Collision Mitigation System Problem 2. Road Departure Mitigation Problem 3. Tire Pressure Monitor Problem 4. Brake System Problem 5. Brake System Hold Problem 6. Power Steering System Problem 7. Vehicle Stability Assistant Problem 8. Hill Start Assist Problem and 9. Adaptive Cruise Control Problem. This is the second time this has happened this year 2024. There are othe CRV owners who have had this issue. Honda needs to recall these vehicles and fix this safety issue. My battery was changed in 2023 and my system was checked but these lights still come on.
battery kept draining especially if car wasn't used for a couple days. got locked out of car from battwry drain while shopping. took to dealer because brain new battery dead within days. so far found out I have a bad body control module.
Gear shift button broke and came out of the shifter completely. I can not put the vehicle in gear and I am stranded. I contacted my local dealership and they acted like they have never heard of this being a problem. My vehicle had under 12000 miles and this happens. Of course it is a problem. The components broken brittle parts speak for the cheap plastic used in such a critical area. The cost of the repair shouldn't be a factor for recall. The number of people reporting this problem is a small percent compared to the many who have had the repair when it is clearly a manufacturers defect.
History: Vehicle brakes failed suddenly while in motion. Brake System problem was flashing on the dashboard followed by various electronic system failure messages. The problem first occurred on Nov 3, 2023 and was reported to NHTSA with issue # 11553355. The issue was also reported to American Honda (Case # XXX). Vehicle logged an error code. Honda dealership could not diagnose the cause of the issue and hence they could not provide any fix. I was advised to bring the vehicle back if the problem occurs again since the problem appears intermittent. Recent update: The problem occurred again twice in July 2024 under the same circumstances as mentioned above from Nov 2024. The vehicle is now with dealership for inspection. No root cause has been identified yet at the time of reporting the issue but it is being suspected that a fault might be with Electric Brake Booster component. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Brakes. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Very risky as I lost an ability by approx. 90% to stop the vehicle. Fortunately, no vehicle was in front of me, I was not approaching pedestrian crossing, or traffic signal. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Confirmed by a dealer. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? Yes - American Honda and Hoffman Honda dealership in Canton, CT. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? Yes INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Every signal sensor in my car went off after 100k miles. Brake hold system, power steering, hill start assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation, road departure, electric parking brake, tpm, emission system problem, all wheel drive system. Car stopped working and came to a complete stop on highway with my child in it which was not only terrifying but put us obviously in a life threatening situation. Brought it to Honda dealership-they cleared codes and said they could figure out what was wrong because their software was down. Made an appointment with Honda in a different city to check my rear brake actuator sensor as I had had my brakes replaced prior to these codes showing up. Had to have the car towed to the dealership as it would not drive at this point. The dealership put a VT sylenoid in and said it was good to go. I asked about the brakes, they said they showed no issue. 30 days later while on the highway AGAIN with my child, all the same sensors came on and the car notified me to pull over to safety. I brought my car back to the dealership, they said they changed the left wheel sensor and all codes were cleared and the car was ready to be picked up. I go to the dealership and turn on my car, two seconds not even off the lot and ALL the SAME sensors are back on. Now Honda is telling me that I need a brand new computer installed for $1400.00 to fix the issue, after I already spent $1500 at this point. Obviously I have called American Honda, but this has been an absolute nightmare.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving approximately 35 MPH, the steering wheel became stiff. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed that the steering gear needed to be replaced. The contact was advised by the local dealer that the vehicle was unsafe to drive. The vehicle was not repaired due to the cost. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.
It is very hard to explain the feeling without driving it. I call it sticky steering. In a curve there would be some resistance when rounding a curve, almost like a nudging feeling, not smooth like other vehicles I would drive. It's like the steering gets stuck in a groove while in the curve and doesn't have the smoothness when adjusting to the curve. A more detailed explanation is attached.
My vehicle steering was clicking and having trouble turning. When I brought it in for a checkup, I was told that the rack and pinion needed to be replaced, and this was not due to wear and tear. Upon further research this exact year and model had several recalls for the exact problem I am having. Due to my VIN not being under the recall directly I was told there was nothing that could be helped and I would need to pay out of pocket for the repairs. My car is 4,000 miles over the extended warranted that I bought and since this is not due to wear and tear of the vehicle, I feel I am due compensation for getting this repaired. I cannot afford this at the moment because I am a single woman who works to live and pay my bills. I got this vehicle for its reviews and research on being known as a safe reliable vehicle. Any help I can receive would be greatly appreciated. Thank You
All of the alerts for the ADAS system would all come on alerting everything had failed. This had three times now over a course of a year. Once driving two while starting or parked. After two reboots of the system and a little drive the alerts go away. Also the stereo display had gone black because it lost connection. A reboot fixes that too. That’s been happening longer. Asked the dealer to check for firmware updates. They said there are five for her car after they checked it. We had it on for an oil change. They told us first it would cost 100, then they changed to almost 500 because it was 5 updates. This could be a real safety concern since you will never know if something has failed or not. If it’s their software engineers making the mistakes with coding, why do we have to pay for them updating it so it’s correct. I have no problem doing this myself, most car companies allow this, Honda will not with our 2017 even though there is a setting to do it. I just have no way of getting the files. Please help.
All lights in dash came on randomly one day. Would go on and off periodically eventually they stayed on. Vehicle began going into limp mode changed all spark plugs, fuel pump and injectors continued difficulty with control center every light remains on speedometer is in correct all safety features are inactive. Car is completely unsafe to drive will go into limp mode out of nowhere have tried everything to resolve issues nothing has helped. Entire system should be recalled
Earlier this week and again today, my wife and I were using our 2017 Honda CR-V EX when the car behaved very anomalously. In both of these instances, the car started normally and moved out onto the street, but then the engine abruptly bogged down and multiple messages of the form "xxx System Has A Problem" would cycle on the driver's display. At this time, the car would barely move forward or reverse, and shifting into reverse ("R") was accompanied by a noticeable jerk and a thump. The shifter display on the driver's display also appeared to be showing all of the possible shift settings at once. One or two cycles of rebooting the system on the infotainment/backup camera display appeared to clear the engine operation problem, but the error messages persisted for several miles and several restarts before they abruptly disappeared. Note that the streets here in Florida are very flat, and the weather this week has been mostly hot and humid with little rain. We have about 40,000 miles on the odometer, and the car has been serviced regularly by the local Honda dealer. When this anomalous behavior is not taking place, the car seems to move and accelerate normally. Several other complaints appear to describe the same problem, and some owners report that they have been told that they need new fuel injectors. We have not yet taken our car to the dealer or other mechanic, and the problem has not yet been reproduced by the dealer or anyone other than us. This appears to be a safety issue because a sudden loss of engine power in traffic could be very dangerous. During the malfunction with reduced engine power, I recorded a video of the driver's display which I can provide upon request.
On 6 separate occasions (2 in 2018, 4 in July 2024) my automatic braking system has kicked in when there is no apparent obstruction, vehicle, etc. in front of me. I have not taken the car to the dealer or filed any inspection as no accident occurred and I saw an article online about this happening to the same model and year car and thought I should add my examples to the list.
My 2017 Honda CRV has been diagnosed as needing replacement of its fuel injectors. When this problem is detected by its onboard computer system, all warning lights illuminate on dashboard display (even though they are unrelated), and all the ADAS safety features are disabled until the system can be reset - these include blind spot detection, forward collision warning, lane departure warning, etc. Because the car was otherwise driving fine, I explored other possible reasons for what seemed to be an issue with the electronics, such as a faulty battery. Eventually, it became apparent there was a fuel injection problem when the car went into what others have referred to as 'limp mode,' which means that it struggles to accelerate to even 5-10 mph at best. Thankfully, the two times this happened before I was able to take it to the dealership were both on residential streets without traffic. If this had occurred on an interstate or while turning left, the results could have been tragic. After some basic internet searches, it became readily apparent that hundreds of others across the country are dealing with the same identical issues I've described. Some individuals are encountering this issue when the car is only at 50-60k miles, which indicates it is not a matter of typical wear and tear. Yet, for some reason, Honda is not acknowledging this problem. This is especially disappointing and confusing seeing that Honda has either recalled or extended warranties on fuel injectors for multiple other models built during the mid-to-late 2010s (Pilot, Odyssey, Ridgeline, and Fit). I would greatly appreciate the NHTSA's assistance in ensuring that people like me do not have to pay for a very costly repair that is clearly due to a systemically faulty part, but more importantly hope that no one is involved in an accident when their safety features are disabled and/or the car goes into 'limp mode' while in an vulnerable highway or intersection situation.
About 5 PM yesterday, August 2, 2024, the emergency braking system activated and brought my CR-V to a complete and sudden stop. The braking warning lite for a brief moment prior to the braking. There was no time for me to brake myself nor did I apply the brake petal. There were no vehicles, bicycles, or pedestrians on the road in front of me. Following the stop, the brakes released and we were able to continue forward normally. My and my wife's safety was put at risk first, if we had had another vehicle to our rear, and to the risk of neck sprain due to the sudden stop. I have not notified my Honda dealer as of today, Aug 3, 2024.. The vehicle has not been inspected by anyone as of today Aug 3, 2024.
On July 19, 2024, I was driving around 30-35 miles an hour. There were no cars close to me either in front or the back or side. My car started to abruptly slow down in a jerking fashion and then the car beeped. It scared me. It didn't stop completely and then the car started moving normally. If a car was behind me, I could have been hit in the rear. The message "brake" did not come on which is supposed to be the first stage in the forward collision safety. This never happened before and now I feel like I have to turn off the safety feature. My 2017 CR-V has 23,000 mi.
All warning lights turn on intermittently and stay on for an undetermined time. I have taken it to service shops and the dealer multiple times over the last couple of years. Finally, I was able to get into the dealer while all warning lights were on so they could diagnose. I was told it was a fuel injector issue and not covered for repair. Upon researching, there are many reports of this issue and I don't understand why Honda is not being held accountable for this failure. While all warning lights are on, how would I know if there was an actual problem with the car? This could be a dangerous situation.
All vehicle alerts came on, vehicle randomly started braking hard while driving. We brought it to the dealership, told it needs all new fuel injectors and a VSA module. VSA module is on backorder, no timeline for a new one. Told vehicle is unsafe to drive without VSA module.
The drivers side rear view mirror will shake randomly while sitting idle or while driving. No amount of adjustment corrects this problem. When the mirror shakes it’s hard to see any detail behind you.
On June 30, 2024 and again July 13, 2024, the BRAKE dash light and sound alarm engaged on clear sunny days (~ 11 am (6/30) and 1pm (7/13). The brake did not engage and so I was able to maintain control of the car, but in both cases I was on a major highway at 50-60 mph. I have previously reported an incident about a year ago (NHSTA issue number: 11530134 reported 7/3/2023). Weather conditions were the same (sunny and dry) and about the same time of the day (midday), however I was on a regular city road traveling about 25-30 mph and the BRAKES light, sound and the physical brakes brought the car to such a hard stop that I moved forward fast enough to engage the seatbelt restraint mechanism.
Car is parked in front of the house no one has touch the vehicle. The car suddenly started the alarm, had to turn it off. Later on during the day I went to turn the vehicle on and it wont turn off after. I had to search for the fuel pump fuse and remove that to turn off the car.
For about six months my service lights have been lighting up. For the same amount of time I have noticed that my car begins to "stink" after running for a minute or two. I took it into the dealership and the service advisor states that I have three of four fuel injectors that have failed. I asked the service advisor about the warranty and she states those are not under warranty. I have researched this issue and have found that many many people have had problems with their fuel injectors and Honda will not replace them under warranty. I am sending this complaint because I feel that this issue should be covered under a recall warranty, since it has been noted in other models that the fuel injectors were recalled and repaired. Please help.
Parasitic battery drain affects my 2017 Honda CR-V. If the vehicle is dormant for just a few days, the battery drains completely and requires a jump start. I am on my fourth battery since purchasing the vehicle new in March 2017, and have also had the starter replaced when my garage could not identify the issue. When the battery is completely dead as I described, the key fob will not open the doors, and you must enter the vehicle by using the physical key located inside the fob. All doors must be opened manually, and the trunk liftgate (where one typically keeps jumper cables or battery booster pack) does not function, rendering access to the rear seats and trunk very difficult. When a jump is successful, all of the safety systems reset and warning indicators do not disappear until the car is driven for several minutes. Honda has an electrical problem or is using batteries that are too small for their vehicles. I wouldn’t expect a car that has been sitting for months at a time to start on the first try, but a few days (even a long weekend would be an issue) is unacceptable.
All of my warning lights are on. The above checklist only lets me pick 3 items total but every warning light is on. Brake hold system, power steering, hill start assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation, road departure, electric parking brake, tpm, emission system problem, all wheel drive system. My car has went from driving 70mph on the highway to suddenly going to 10-20 mph! Super dangerous and this has happened 2 times. First time in March 24’ and again May 24’. The reset resolved it briefly but it returned again and again. Now all lights are on and it scares me to drive on the interstate because I don’t know when it will happen again. My safety features do not work on my car when the lights are on. I have had the codes checked and reset 2 times. Codes P0172 & P0303 were a couple codes it shows.
While I am driving a cascade of warning lights signal on my dashboard. Alarms trigger causing a distraction.
Steering component locks up causing the vehicle to become slightly difficult to make turns and I get clicking sounds from steering column took vehicle to get fixed at independent service center they installed new rack and pinion plus other parts and with labor cost over four thousand dollars paper invoice available upon request I’ve owned Honda 2017 crv lx since 2017 which I bought new. Problem started in the beginning of May of 2024. No warming lights messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the start of problem.
The issue involves the steering of the vehicle at highway speeds. The steering gets stuck going straight and requires more force than usual to steer the vehicle. It feels like the straight line steering is stuck in position and then it suddenly gives way. This happens on most highway journeys at the moment between 50 and 70 mph. Because extra force is needed to push the steering out of the straight line position, it is possible to push too hard and change position in the lane without intending too. This then needs to be corrected. I noticed this one time before and took my vehicle in to Honda but they were not able to rectify. It is now happening much more frequently.
2017 Honda CRV, mileage on 1 Dec 2023 (44498).The passenger air bag warning light fails to to 'OFF' when a 112 pound person sits on the front seat. Auto dealer inspected the device on Dec 1, 2023 and re-initialized the seat weight sensor to factory parameters and advised it now tests ok. During Jan - June 2024, the warning light began to operate improperly. Auto dealer inspected the system on August 24 and determined the passenger front seat weight sensor reading was inaccurate and advised the entire seat frame with weight sensors be replaced. Returned to the auto dealer on June 18 to have the entire seat and weight sensors replaced to correct the issue. Current Mileage: 48692 on June 24, 2024. Cost to customer: Parts & Labor: $1558.78 The vehicle is not covered by a factory warranty, however, it would seem that an issue with an air bag should be considered as a recall, since the only person using the car was the driver, since we had no confidence that the passenger air bag system would work if there was an incident that required it to be deployed. We have to use a second vehicle whenever we travel with more that one person in the car.
All dashboard lights come on occasionally, since 40k miles. Car now has 70k. I've had it serviced regularly and battery replaced, nothing seems to work on preventing this from happening. Dangerous if system is reading that there is an issue when there is not, and it affects performance of the vehicle until they turn off on there own. Happens anywhere between 50 and +500 miles, no rhyme or reason outside of possibly linked to remote starter, which tends to more consistently occur when using.
Multiple warning/error messages are being displayed on the dashboard.
My car’s automatic emergency braking system engaged at about 35 mph without cause. It was a very hard, abrupt almost full stop. I will report to my Honda dealer on Monday when they open. The car behind me was able to stop but was very angry. Thankfully he was not tailgating or we would have had an accident The car has done this before but not as severely and didn’t brake as hard, more of a slow down.
I recently visited Honda dealership ( Honda of Chantilly, Chantilly, VA - 20151). I would like to report the findings for further guidance. All warning signs on my 2017 Honda CRV turning on while driving on the high way. These signs come and go often. So, I took the SUV to the dealership for the diagnosis. Dealer found the issue and the diagnosis code was P0172 (Fuel System too rich). Later I figured that this code is reported under recall/extended service with clear detail ( Honda Service Bulletin 19-037). I reported the findings with doc to the Honda Manufacturer and dealer but their response was that my Vin is not impacted. So, they denied to fix the issue. However, my car has the same issue with diagnostic code which was performed by dealer.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the vehicle made an abnormal sound. The transmission, brakes, and several other unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the transmission needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 56,300.
All warning lights are active on the dash touch screen and the IP. The warning is audible and visual and cycling rapidly and very annoying. Dangerous when driving as a distraction making driving after dark very dangerous. This is the second time in a year this same problem has happened. We are the original owners of the car bought from Art Mohen Honda in Jackson Michigan in 2017. The first incident was intermittent and the touch screen would clear. unrelated to the computer problem we we in a collision and during the repair process the car was taken to Art Mohen Honda and faults were cleared on the computer. This lasted 7 months and now the computer is in complete fault as described above.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving 40–45 MPH, the parking brake activated independent of driver input. The contact stated that the vehicle violently jolted forward. There were no warning lights illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 109,000.
Fuel pump failure caused an engine stall while driving twice.
All warning lights have been illuminated for several months. On occassion will turn off, but only for 1-2 days then back on again for another few weeks. After on-line research learned this is a very common problem for this make/model/year that Honda is not acknowledging as an issue. Honda dealer service technician diagnosed what I already knew that car needs new fuel injectors. Most safety features and cruise control do not function as a result. Parts are on backorder.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at undisclosed speeds, the steering wheel seized, and was difficult to maneuver. The contact stated that the failure recurred consistently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed with rack and pinion failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact discovered NHTSA Campaign Number: 18V663000 (Steering) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
Have dealt with oil dilution the life of this vehicle, around 63K miles all lights lit up in the dash disabling ALL safety features. For a while this issue would come and go and the lights would clear,CEL included. Brought into Honda for a diagnosis and they state that the vehicle needs new fuel injectors. Due to the CEL from the fuel Injectors it disables ALL safety features therefore putting the driver and others on the road at risk.
Two times today the infotainment screen goes black and starts beeping like crazy. You have to pull off the road, turn the car off and then reset this. The beeping noise is so annoying you have no choice but to pull over. Dealer said no fix. Why can’t Honda fix their problems. Many other Hondas are having the same problem. I will submit this form every time this happens, which seems to be daily now.
Again this happened, driving at 38 mph the braking system activated without warning and slammed us into the seat belts. This is happening way to often and now my wife refuses to drive the car.
Stranded over the years of the cars life with multiple dead batteries. Most recent after stranded with car that wouldn’t start had it replaced and car electrical system randomly went off triggering alarm and draining battery. The amps were way over Honda standard being drawn from the battery. After couple trips to dealer it was the bcm that needed replacing with only 56,000 miles on the car.
Hi. During the drive. My car's all warning light that include break light and engine light and tire pressure light. And I check everything is find. Then I go to the dealer to fix it. The dealer said everything is fine. The can't do anything. They just clear the code. But the next week, it happened again. I also do research this issue at internet. This issue is not unique in U.S. please help us to let honda to be concerned this issue. thank you.
Since I have owned this car bought in 2017 the info screen randomly turns black and beeps. You cannot tell at that is going on with the car. You can’t adjust the heat, defroster or the radio. This has happened hundreds of times. Honda says they have no fix. I read you have to pull over turn the car off, than start it up and hold the volume button down on the radio until it asks you to reboot the system. Ridiculous, I’ve never had a car with so many problems.
When exiting car sound is heard that car is locked. Then same sound is heard again seconds later. I have DroneMobile app on phone so I checked status & found car reopened. I have had DroneMobile was installed in 2018 or 2019. It happens all the time as far as I can tell. The 2nd fob is in my house & not near car. Hard to know if anything will be secure in car or safe to enter. Could this have happened after car software update?
On April 27 suddenly, without prior warning or indication, all dashboard warning lights and all system alerts went off simultaneously. My Honda dealer confirmed today the issue is the fuel injectors. All 4 injectors failed the fuel ratio test. They quoted $2,000 to fix. I negotiated the price down to $1700 as I am just 4K miles out of manufacturer warranty. This injector issue disables KEY safety features of the CR-V's when it occurs. An injector issue should NOT cause safety features of the CR-V to stop working (ex. Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, TPS, Hill Start Assist, Braking, etc...)
While driving at about 35 miles per hour, with no traffic or obstructions ahead of me, the automatic braking system rapidly decreased my vehicle speed to about 5 miles per hour, then disengaged and the vehicle operated normally.
Recurring parasitic battery draw down to below normal level to start vehicle. Have replaced battery 3 times in less than a year. After many trips to the dealer about the same issue. Honda dealership charged me $500.00 for a diagnostic. Rv has an Electrical problem on the engine along with Dash Board. They are charging more than $6,000.00 for repairs with uncertainty that issue will be solve. My CRV has 37,000 miles which is still new. Noticed same problem reported in Internet forums. Google “2017 CRV battery problem” for more examples reported by other CRV vehicle owners. I believe that this problem is an extensive one that affects many owners and should be determined to be a safety recall issue. Now I have no confidence in the safety of the vehicle and won’t be driving it at night so as to avoid the possibility of being left stranded away from home.
My car went into the limp mode when I was driving and would only go 7 to 8 miles per hour. This is a big safety hazard. Had I been on the freeway and not near my home, it could have easily caused an accident.I had it towed to the dealer and they could not find anything wrong and said it was probably Bad gas. Prior to this, several lights had come on the dash stating that all of the systems in the car were not working. They also could not tell me why that was happening. It seems now that I find out that Honda CRVs made in the year 2017 have bad fuel injectors. I'm having to get that replaced. I'm not sure if that's what caused the car to go into the limp mode.
Subject: Urgent Complaint Regarding Honda CRV Fuel Injector Issue Dear National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) Team, I am writing to urgently report a safety concern regarding my Honda CRV, and to request a recall and replacement of the fuel injector system. Recently, my Honda CRV experienced a series of warning lights illuminated on the dashboard display. Upon diagnostic examination at an authorized Honda dealership, it was determined that the issue stems from a malfunctioning fuel injector. Prior to this diagnosis, my vehicle was involved in two alarming incidents where its speed became uncontrollable, despite my efforts to apply the accelerator pedal. The first incident fortunately did not result in an accident due to sparse traffic conditions. However, during the second incident, the vehicle behind me was forced to perform an emergency brake maneuver, narrowly averting a potentially catastrophic collision. These incidents highlight a critical safety hazard that poses a significant risk to both myself and other road users. As a concerned member of the community, I strongly urge NHTSA to initiate a recall of all affected Honda CRV vehicles and implement a comprehensive replacement program for the fuel injector system. Addressing this issue promptly is crucial to preventing future accidents and ensuring the safety of drivers and passengers. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I eagerly await your swift action and resolution of this pressing concern. Sincerely, One of the CRV owners
I was driving my Honda CRV on a 4 lane highway (2 lanes in each direction) on a clear and sunny day ([XXX]) at approximately 45-50 mph. I had no traffic ahead of me, but cars behind me, when my vehicle slammed on its brakes and dropped my speed to approximately 5 mph. I did hear the beep and saw the "brake" warning statement on my dash display. It released the brakes after the decrease in speed (to approximately 5 mph) and I continued to drive home without any further problems. I'm very fortunate that I didn't get rear ended. I phoned my Honda service adviser and made her aware of the problem (West Herr Honda of Lockport, NY). My vehicle is in excellent condition and has never been in any accidents. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
All the following safety systems were getting failed lights on vehicle: - Adaptive Cruise control - Collision Mitigation - Road Departure Mitigation - Vehicle Stability Assist - Hill Start Assist - Electric Parking Brake - Tire Pressure Monitoring. We were replacing the battery thinking it was a battery issue as it was diagnosed prior. Took it to dealer and they confirmed fuel injectors had failed and needed to be replaced at 81K miles.
Driving on the highway at 65-70 MPH from Buffalo on [XXX] - so there was heavy traffic. Engine started to run rough, then the warning system showed almost all of the errors on the dash, including TPM, collision avoidance, lane alert, etc. Then the car could only go about 25 MPH, so had to pull off to the side (luckily) and turned off car to restart since that has worked before. This time it did not work, so had to drive about 1 mile to next exit on the side of the road and call for a tow from Erie to Pittsburgh. This has happened before when trying to accelerate from an ramp to the highway. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
While driving in a 4 lane road up a slight grade my CRV abruptly stopped using automatic emergency braking in front of a metal plate laying in the road the was covering up some construction. I started driving again and the car again stopped abruptly several feet later at another metal plate.
3 times this has happened now the latest incident today 4-19-2024. I’m driving along and then all of a sudden the car goes into hard braking mode and the emergency braking light comes on the dashboard. Twice I have almost been rear ended because of this problem. No cars are in front of me at the time. I feel the automatic braking system was not designed correctly. I hope no one gets into an accident because of this defect. This is the last Honda I will ever own.
My 2017 Honda CR-V decided to brake all by itself while driving on the highway going 65 mph. This incident first happened to me in May 2023 on a clear sunny day with my 1 month old baby and fiancé in the car. My fiancé thought I slammed on the brakes but in fact I did not, I was on the highway going 65mph. I was so scared because I didn’t even know my car was capable of braking on its own until that day. Everything in the vehicle flew to the front of the car, luckily no one was behind me or in front of me at that time and we were all okay but we were shaken up. The second time it happened, I was with my fiancé again on a backroad about a month later with no one in front of me or behind me, again on a clear day and my car slammed on the brakes by its own. From that second time on I always turn off my collision mitigation system hoping it makes a difference and does not do it again. I love my car but it is a complete hazard if it brakes on its own with no warning prior to it happening. I did call Honda to see if this was an issue or if there was a recall but the lady told me there is no recall at this time and this was the second time she has heard of this. I do not know what will cause the car to brake on its own, I can’t replicate it on demand, it is very random. I made sure my sensors were not obstructed and were clear. Hopefully Honda will do something about this issue, this is completely unacceptable.
There have been a few instances in which the emergency breaking system activated based on false positives. Examples include certain overhead highway signs (one in particular is a regular trigger in a certain lane of a certain road in my area) as well as dips in the road or construction areas or the bottom of hills, in which the sensor presumably reads the upcoming hill as an actual instruction. In one of these instances a car behind me locked up the brakes to avoid hitting me as my car applied the brakes unnecessarily. These issues have occurred repeatedly and are often able to be reproduced.
All driver assistance functions (Adaptive Cruise, Automatic Emergency Braking, Collision Warning, Lane Departure, Lane Keep Assist, and probably the Blind Spot Warning too) failed simultaneously, as indicated by warning lights and messages on the instrument panel. (Also failing were the Brake Hold function, and the parking brake, and the brake failure light was also illuminated, though the brakes did appear to function.) (The Check Engine Light also illuminated, though the engine continued to operate.) The root cause of the failure (as determined by the dealer) was failed fuel injectors causing the engine to run too rich. Yes, it is odd that failed fuel injectors cause a complete and total failure of the driver assistance features, but apparently this is not an uncommon failure mode for this particular problem on this model of engine.
I own a 2017 Honda CRV and my complaint is various warning lights such as the brake system, lane departure, ACC & forward collision warning illuminated on the dash with the dashboard. There are MANY other Honda consumers who have faced/facing similar instances. I have attended to reboot the system three times to clear these messages. A new battery was installed June 2023.
I was driving my Honda CRV 2017 on I-65 in Birmingham - Montgomery area in Alabama in March 2024 and suddenly in the middle of the busy highway the vehicle stalled and wouldn’t drive even after stepping on the accelerator a little harder. I then turned on my emergency lights to signal to the behind vehicles that I have and emergency situation became I was in the middle of a busy highway and the vehicle simply wouldn’t drive. I managed to pull aside of the highway and turned the engine off because I didn’t know what the issue was. After a few minutes I started the vehicle again and drove a few miles and the vehicle stalled again. After a couple of repeated cycle, I got the vehicle to a nearby Honda dealership for diagnostic testing which later revealed that the fuel injectors, the head gasket, the turbo system etc were causing the vehicle to stall. The vehicle is currently not drivable and has since been with the Honda dealership as I am writing. With taxes, the dealership is charging me approximately 5000 USD to fix this problem, money that I cannot afford. Not knowing what to do, I did a brief research to see if anyone else has experienced this issue before and I found out in the consumer report that other drivers have actually experienced exactly the same issue that happened to my vehicle. I currently do not have any additional vehicle for commuting and I am forced to use rented vehicles with the rental cost accumulating on the daily basis while my vehicle remains with the dealership. I am therefore writing this notification for Honda to look into this potentially risk safety incidence and help Honda CRV owners and myself get this problem fixed because such experience doesn’t boost consumer confidence for both current and future Honda CRV owners. Thanks
The vehicle randomly starts FLASHING every warning message across the info screen, All steering and cruise functions become disabled. No codes when scanned, can't reset the displaty warnings but clears on its own sometimes, then comes back randonmly. Dealer has been no help and cant fix. Warning that display are: COLLISION ITIGATION SYSTEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE PROBLE< STEERING PROBLEM and more.
The fuel injectors are the issue with this Honda. When driving with these injectors and they go bad the vehicles braking system, lane assist, and Vehicle stability goes out. I have had my vehicle serviced (no injectors available to fix issue at this moment) by a Honda dealership since every warning and check engine light was on. Honda is aware of this issue but fails to recall the injectors. No repair invoice yet however it is a $2,500 fix when the parts are available from backorder.
Gasoline leaked past fuel injectors and diluted the oil. Fuel injectors and spark plugs have had to be replaced with OEM parts. The problem has been confirmed by an official Honda dealership and by an independent service center. This issue has been repaired twice by a mechanic and has happened a third time. When the issue appeared, check engine light, parking brake, adaptive cruise control, lane assist, forward collision warning lights have turned on. Car disables adaptive cruise control, lane assist, and forward collision detection when issue occurs. The attached file shows the first incident and first inspection at 82,200 miles. The second incident occurred at 103,000. This second incident was the exact same issue.
Sticky steering while driving moderate to highway speeds while driving straight. Steering is not smooth as turn slightly from neutral straight position to keep staight driving line. Not noticeable whenever turn back and forth on corners. Stickiness only noticed while trying drive straight
Since I have purchased this vehicle in 2017, there have been numerous 'random' occasions while I am driving and the car's dashboard will flash "BRAKE"3X or "BRAKE" 3X with the warning beeps...these occasions have occurred while driving at speed over 50mph but there was no vehicle or object in front of me. Twice, I have been driving and the car has flashed "BRAKE"3x and beeped and applied the emergency brakes---but there was nothing in front of my car & thank goodness there was no one behind either. I don't know why it does it at random times, maybe it's the way the sun beams on the car, just at the right angle, to alert the brake system. Either way, it's caused me to use extra caution and turn off the Automatic Break System every time I enter the car ( If I remember) I am available for inspection upon request. I've read articles online about this problem with the Honda CRV 2017.
Multiple times my vehicle has flashed "BRAKE" when there was no object in front of me. At times there were shadows from trees that I thought may have prompted the warning. But in the past 6 weeks during interstate driving and adaptive cruise control engaged, the vehicle brakes for no reason. This can happen several times in just a short distance, or sometimes I can drive 25 miles and it doesn't happen at all. There is no rhyme or reason to the frequency. Most of the time it drops the speed about 5 MPH but keeps the cruise engaged at that new speed. I have never let it drop more than 15 MPH for fear of causing an issue with other drivers. This past week it applied the brakes just as a semi truck moved into my lane behind me at a close distance. I was afraid the truck would rear-end me. I have received the following warnings in the instrument panel: "Road departure mitigation system problem", "Collision mitigation system problem", and "Adaptive cruise control problem. My husband took pictures of the warnings as they appeared while I was driving. Honda diagnostics could not identify even one code.
While driving on the highway, the car abrutly slowed down to 25 mph and all of the lights on the dash lit up. Fortunately, I was able to pull over to the side of the highway and avoid an accident. Upon taking the car to the dealership, they stated that the car required new fuel injectors. Prior to this incident, there were no indications of any issues with the car.
The automatic emergency braking system activated unnecessarily. While pulling up to a light, I was preparing to apply the brakes when my car suddenly came to an immediate stop. The brake light flashed and the car came to a halt. It stopped so abruptly that I was concerned that I had been rear-ended. My passenger in the back seat got out of the car to check with the car behind me. No contact had been made with the car behind me. This event has not occurred previously or since as I have turned off the emergency braking system.
All the warning lights on my dashboard lit up one day with no warning. I took it to the dealer and they determined that the fuel injectors were bad.
The infotainment systems is failing. Volume knob does not change volume correctly, CarPlay goes in and out, chronic infotainment beeping occurs, infotainment system changes source without input. This creates distractions while driving. It was taken to Honda however they reported no fix for this at this time but mentioned a potential recall on the way due to other drivers experiencing similar issues.
Button fell off from the shifter
All warning lights turned on and vehicle lost power/dropped speed to virtually 10 mph. This is a fuel injection issue and is widespread safety problem with the honda crv. A girl recently had this issue and was rear-ended. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
The driver's seat belt became stuck in the unused position and we were unable to pull it out to extend it to the locking mechanism. This put the driver at risk in that there was no usable seat belt, and therefore the driver would be unprotected in the event of a crash. The vehicle is currently at the Honda service department, and the technician believes there is something wrong with the ratcheting system, so he has ordered new parts. There were no previous warning systems, however the alert sound did go off that the seat belt was not in use when the car was turned on.
While driving today, 03/05/2024 my 2017 Honda CR-B suddenly began to break while driving. There were no obstacles in front of the vehicle and no nearby cars. My car continued to randomly break while I was driving continuously and the issue has continued throughout the day. My safety and the safety of others is at risk because the random braking can cause an accident. There were no warning or messages prior to this. The vehicle can be inspected at any time. This issue has not been confirmed with a dealer, but I am reporting it as it has happened and it is concerning.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the vehicle failed to start-up. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer who diagnosed that the catalytic converter and the oxygen sensors were faulty and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was not yet contacted. The failure mileage was 138,140.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while his son was driving at an undisclosed speed, the passenger’s side air bag inadvertently deployed. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, who was unable to determine the cause for the air bag deployment. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, and a case was opened. The failure mileage was 107,000.
While driving at highway speeds the electrically controlled parking brake engaged resulting in a hazardous situation requiring my son to pull over off the road. The entire electrical system was acting strangely with hazard lights coming on randomly, alarm system going off randomly, and keys fobs not working. Honda dealership determined the issue to be a bad Body Control Module (BCM).
3 main issues: (July 2023) Suddenly when trying to accelerate on the interstate, I could not. I pulled over, turned the car off, and back on, and did not have the problem again for several months. (December 2023) Car started to sputter upon turning on. After a minute it ran fine. Continuous problem. (January 2024) Every single service light came on. Car would still operate but without cruise control, lane detecting, electric brake and every other feature. Lights remain on and flashing while driving. Still sputtered upon turning on but would stop after a minute. Several times when putting in drive, would not accelerate past 15mph approx). After restarting, the engine would seem to operate fine while all service lights remained on with functions of each not working. One day the car operated fine and did so for several days. Then the problems started again. I took it in for service and the dealer said it was a fuel injector that needed replaced. Waited for a part for 3 weeks and got the needed repairs. When I picked up the car it seemed to operate fine. The next day all problems started it again. It is currently in the shop to look for the cause.
This morning my Honda CRV unexpectedly braked while in motion driving 40mph. I didn't have my foot on the brake pedal & there wasn't any cars, objects or pedestrians in front of me. And, luckily there wasn't anyone behind me because there would have definitely been a rear end accident. The BRAKE sign came on during this action. I have a call into the local Honda dealer service dept., but I haven't heard back from them. My vehicle has not been inspected by anyone as I was on my way to work. This is the only time it has happened. I am extremely concerned with the safety for myself & others.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 65 MPH, she heard an abnormal rattling sound coming from the vehicle, after which the vehicle started shaking abnormally. The contact was able to pull to the shoulder of the roadway, where the contact observed smoke coming from the engine compartment. The contact turned off the vehicle, after which the vehicle failed to restart. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, who diagnosed a failure with the connecting rods resulting in damages to the engine. The contact was informed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 114,000.
The car has a warranty that was extended because of camshaft issues. The warranty expired 2023 I bought the car in 2023. The issue started happening in 2024. The car will just stop and not go no matter how much you press the gas. So driving anywhere at any speed the car will just all of a sudden stop. it’s extremely dangerous and obviously it’s a problem that Honda has already recognized
Service Bulletin [XXX] dated [XXX] corrective actions (dual special software updates) where followed and the frequency of incidents dropped dramatically, but after multiple dealership visits (Hardin Honda of Anaheim, CA) the center stack touchscreen still blanks out randomly while driving. Yes, the full vehicle is available for inspection. The screen continues to also “freak out” as shown in the following videos where totally random commands are being made. The blackout happens more but this still occurs periodically too. Nothing seems to fully correct the root issue. I show the dealership the videos I’ve recorded showing the issue but does not occur by the time the technicians test drive it. When it first happened, because it was so dangerous losing many controls, I also opened a case with American Honda customer relations ( #[XXX]) with “Jose” who noted the details but there was no response or followup because I was two months over warranty despite low mileage and simply out of luck. He said ask the dealership for “good will assistance” and you should get the majority of it covered probably bring it down to around $300 a replacement center stack touchscreen rather than over $2,000.

In September of 2022 all the warning lights went off and the associated systems shut down. Took vehicle to dealer and had codes checked. Code thrown was P0172 - system too rich. Though vehicle was under extended warranty at the time of this incident none of the potential TSB’s for this known issue were investigated. Was advised that it was potentially bad gas and to run it low, return to dealer and have lights reset, refill with better fuel and see if the code trips again. Now in January of 2024, after my extended warranty has expired, the same code has been thrown again, and I’ve been advised to try the same thing, though this adviser does not believe the gas is the issue. He speculates that the fuel injectors are the likely culprit. Once again, a very known issue to Honda, which costs about $1500 to $2000 to repair. As this is a known issue, Honda should be correcting it free of charge to the owners of these vehicles.
the oil is mixed with gasoline causing the level the oil to hight or and do not lubricate well because is not oil pure in the engine and I went to de Honda dealer to change de oil and report the problem and they say that is normal but the oil was smelling mixed to gasoline and do not lubricate well motive I have to change the oil more frequently .
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that there was an abnormally strong gasoline odor inside the cabin of the vehicle after refueling. Additionally, there was an abnormal knocking sound coming from the engine while depressing the accelerator pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was initially taken to a dealer where a diagnostic test was performed; however, the mechanic could not determine the cause of the failure. The mechanic recommended a more extensive diagnostic test be performed by dissembling the engine. The contact then took the vehicle to an independent mechanic where a coolant leak inside the engine was discovered. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact back to the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 149,000.
While the car was moving, the LCD screen suddenly flickered uncontrollably. Although the LCD screen returns to normal after the car is restarted, it will flicker after driving for a period of time.
Airbags did not deploy during car accident and are not available for inspection as car was totaled. My safety and the safety of other passengers were put at risk the driver was slammed forward since the car got rear ended and the driver's chest was slammed into the steering wheel; medical attention was required and injuries were sustainted. The other two passenger also required medical attention and sustained injuries one to their neck and the other to their head, chest, and back. The problem has not been reproduced or confirmed by the dealer or an independent service center as the car is totaled and signed over to insurance. The vehicle was inspected by police onsite shortly after the car accident and an insurance representative will pick up the vehicle tomorrow. Warning lamps/messages: unknown.
Infotainment screen malfunction and safety issue. Also hood popped open twice while driving 65 mph causing damage.
Dash showed a problem with the Supplemental Restraint Issue. The car was taken to our local Honda dealer. After three days of diagnosis, trial and error and almost a $1500 charge the driver’s side Airbag was found to be the problem and replaced. This car had just over 31000 miles. It had been garaged since purchased and was never in an accident. Why should an Airbag such as above need to be replaced unless it was defective. Why aren’t error codes more specific? Makes you wonder what would have happened if ,heaven forbid ,there had been an accident. Would this safety feature have deployed. I know there have been recalls of many such safety devices in the past and I believe there may have been a problem with Honda Airbags previously. Perhaps an expansion of this issue is needed. I have contacted Honda with the complaint and they rejected any responsibility.
My car had been rough on the steering wheel and eventually started to stall but still had a quarter of a tank of gas. It marked at a quarter of a tank but stalled in the middle of the freeway going 65+ mph and caused me to go from 65 to 0 in a matter of seconds. All my lights came on, on my dash and the car would not run. Went to get gas and car took a while to run again, this is the second time it happens and I didn’t even get a warning light for gas, there was that much still left in it. Apparently no recalls are associated with this VIN but this has happened twice in a month and it runs through gas very quickly.
While driving the car it began to spit and sputter and lost power to the point I had to pull out of traffic to the shoulder, stop, and turn hazard lights on. While there I turned the car off and restarted it. I began to enter back into traffic, got to about 10-15 mph and all of a sudden the car ran choppy and every light came on the dash displaying a problem with every function of the car. My husband works about a mile from where I was so I drove from where it happened to his workplace. From there the phone calls began to obtain a tow to the dealership. Diagnostic results said head gasket was leaking and coolant was fouling the spark plugs. Dealer quoted 5700 for repairs. (25 hours of labor). Around 86,000 miles (10 weeks ago) the same dealership replaced fuel injectors and spark plugs for 1700. Now the 2017 car is just under 90,000 miles.
All warning lights in car came on. Subsequently had diagnostic testing done. Code P0172 System too Rich. Dealer says fuel injector's need replacement. My understanding is this is an issue on other Honda cars manufactured during the same time period as mine and a recall notice was issued for those models.
I own a 2017 Honda CRV EX AWD. While driving downhill on a mountain road on Dec. 9, 2023, all of my dashboard warning lights and alarms began flashing and sounding off. Some of the warnings cycled through one after another while others were simultaneous. I continued to drive looking for a safe place to pull over. Going downhill I was able to maintain some speed, but when the road leveled off I found I was unable to accelerate to more than 5-10 miles per hour despite the engine continuing to rev. After pulling over, I stopped the engine for 10 minutes. Upon restarting, the dashboard warnings repeated the same process. At first opportunity, I took the car to a Honda dealership where code DTC P0304 was diagnosed and I was advised that the problem was failure of my fuel injectors. Repairs were made at a cost of more than $2000. Fortunately, this failure did not happen to me on a crowded freeway going at higher speeds as it could have easily created a situation where property damage, injuries, or fatalities could have occurred.
In August my 2017 Honda CRV started losing acceleration and felt like it was stalling. Every light on the dashboard came on. I brought it to herb chambers in Westborough and they fixed the turbo charger, the vehicle was still under warranty so I expected to get the issue fixed. In early December the newly 'fixed' honda CR-V started losing acceleration, similar to the previous time. I got the car to the dealership and they fixed the same issue again but charging around 3000$ because now the car wasn’t under warranty. On Saturday January 6th I started up the 2017 Honda CRV with the intentions of going to Herb Chambers in Westborough. (10-15 miles). The CRV again loses acceleration and check engine light comes on along with every other light in the book. Realizing I was not going to make it to Herb Chambers, I pulled into a lot to call for AAA (thankfully our 3 year daughter wasn't with me). AAA Tows the car to Herb Chambers. This time they said it was the spark plugs and Herb Chambers Honda charged close to ANOTHER $1,000 for the SAME issue that should have been fixed in August of 2023. Please see attached Honda documents for your reference. Three times in the span of 4-5 months where the car suddenly goes ‘limp’, on busy highways no mind you, I had to put my hazards on and pray no one hit me, it’s gotten to a point of where there is a known issue and these Honda service departments know this, but still ‘work on your car’, for outrageous sums.
I was driving and my car just randomly slammed on the breaks going through an intersection. There were no cars ahead of me for my car to use the brake censor and there were no cars behind me so I was lucky and did not get rear ended. This happened for a split second then my car was normal again. It stopped so quick and the car made a noise at the same time. I was concerned on why it did that so I went down and turned around and drove that path again. It did not do it again the 2nd time and there was nothing in the road that should of made my car brake on it's own. Lucky I was not going so fast and not on the highway. I have reported it to Honda and there are no recalls on my VIN at this time per Honda.
Bad Fuel Injectors at 60,000 Miles Caused all dash lights to go on Car went into Limp mode
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the check engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 93,000.
Car shut down while driving in middle of highway couldn’t even get it to shoulder. Everything stopped. Would not restart. Took to Honda Dealer. “Reset” fuel pump. Said we were out of gas but there was still 1/8 tank. No other diagnosis. Very unsafe.
The car just braked and stopped for no reason. Nothing in front of me. I could've been rear ended. Took it to the dealer the following day and they could not replicate the incident. They found nothing wrong with the brakes. Brake warning light came on when the car came to an unexpected and sudden stop.
Fuel pump stopped working. Car had trouble starting, felt ‘jumpy’ while driving. Had to get the fuel pump replaced.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the steering wheel assist braking system and other warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that the failure occurred intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel injector had failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The contact stated that the vehicle would be taken to another dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 97,000.
What I experienced was a multiple system failure. It began with a dead battery two years ago. When the engine was restarted the TPMS light came on along with the indicator light to get your car checked. The lights only came on intermittently at first and it didn't seem to affect the function of the car. I had assumed that when I replaced the battery, I had loosened a fuse. As time passed, the number of lights on the dashboard increased along with the duration of time they stayed lit up. Now, within the past 3 months, all the system indicator lights are on constantly, with the accompanying beeps, dings and sounds for each light. Yesterday, on the highway, my dashboard began to dim and the vehicle began to stutter. The dashboard indicator read Critical Failure Detected. Stop Driving When Safe. At the time I was on the highway in the right lane going 51 mph. This is unsafe. I have children and grandchildren and I do not feel safe transporting any of them. The reported problems are: Brake System, Tire Pressure Monitor, Electric Parking Brake, Road departure Mitigation System, Collision Mitigation System, Lane Keeping Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control, Hill Start Assist, Vehicle Stability Assist, Anti-Lock Brake, Power Steering System
Driver’s Seatbelt will not click in place and my vin is not showing a recall. The control screen does not work correctly. It often goes bright and makes a dinging sound or won’t work at all.
When driving at highway speeds the steering would get stuck Causing higher than normal resistance to turn. Once the steering would respond it required quick over correction to prevent leaving the roadway.
While driving when it's raining, the anti-theft alarm goes off, the open door alarm starts beeping, and the low tire warning shows. The instrument cluster sometimes goes completely black, and on one occasion the engine shut off completely. We took the car to a Honda dealer for service and they replaced the battery but that hasn't fixed the issue. Obviously, losing the instrument cluster and power at high speeds is dangerous. This issue has occurred at least six times over the past year.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while the vehicle was parked, the system was independently disabled. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, who diagnosed the vehicle and informed the contact that the fuel injectors were defective. The mechanic informed the contact that if the vehicle had been driving at the time of the failure, the vehicle would not be able to exceed 10 MPH. The vehicle was not repaired due to parts being on backorder. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 99,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving on the highway at approximately 65 MPH, the "Brake" warning light illuminated, and the vehicle independently slowed to 30 MPH. The contact stated once the vehicle slowed the "Brake" warning light disappeared and the contact was able to depress the accelerator pedal and regain forward momentum and speed. The contact stated that the failure had occurred before. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a local dealer or independent mechanic. The vehicle had not been diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The contact researched online and related the failure to NHTSA Action Number: PE22003 (Forward Collision Avoidance). The failure mileage was approximately 76,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that on several occasions when the vehicle was started, there were several unknown warning lights illuminated. Additionally, while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power. The vehicle was steered to the side of the roadway and restarted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer however, the failure could not be duplicated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 700.
Defective fluid injector in multiple CRV 2017. Honda has discontinued the original part and updated the part along with the part number. This injector issue disables KEY safety features of our CR-V's when it occurs. An injector issue should NOT cause safety features of the CR-V to stop working (ex. Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, TPS, Hill Start Assist, Braking, etc...) In addition to the disabling key safety features, some CR-V's have reportedly gone into limp mode while at highway speeds. If this occurs to you while you have a 18 wheeler on your rear, you could potentially be in a serious injury/life event.
My honda when I was driving on my dash started going crazy and says power steering, brakes, tire pressure, adaptive cruise control etc.. I can use any of my safety features when driving the car is constantly telling me there's all these things wrong.
All warning lights on the dashboard come on and disable numerous safety features. The car will have a rough idle at ignition and will sometimes go into a limp mode and will not accelerate. I have researched the issue and believe it is the fuel injectors. According to my research that is the solution that Honda has for these problems. Honda has also changed the part number of these fuel injectors and the manufacturer. I believe Honda is at fault for putting manufacturer defective fuel injectors in.
I was on an exit ramp from one freeway to another. The Honda Collision Management Warning System activated with 2 warning indicators and alerts then immediately activated the brakes hard skidding the tires. After 2-3 seconds it released the brakes. There were no vehicles in front or to the side of me. A vehicle behind braked to avoid me. The weather was clear with good visibility. The sun was to the left. The pavement was dry. I took the vehicle to the dealership for inspection. There were no computer codes recorded for the event. They inspected the camera and radar, and test drove the vehicle and reported no problems.
Twice the dashboard lights come on randomly. Took it to the dealer at Honda of mentor who supposedly "fixed" it but the issue has come back.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while operating the vehicle, the ABS, Forward Collision Avoidance, and Emissions warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who changed the engine oil and updated the engine software. After retrieving the vehicle, the warning lights returned. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who diagnosed that there was fuel inside the engine oil and the fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 84,292.
The incident happened on 11/2/2023 at 8:40 AM ET. I was at the speed of about 25-30 miles/hour to drop my daughter at preschool. Suddenly, I received an alert on my dashboard saying "Brake System Problem". When I applied brakes, the vehicle wouldn't stop. I pressed brake pedal very hard and kept it that way for a while. The vehicle gradually came to a stop but it took long for a vehicle to come to a stop. It was a 'brake failure experience'. If there was a downward slope and/or if I was at a higher speed, the vehicle would have gone out-of-control. I don't recall if I felt automatic acceleration when this incident happen. After vehicle came to a stop, I immediately engaged the parking brake, stopped the ignition, called emergency road-side assistance and got the vehicle towed to a dealership. This incident definitely put me, my 3 year old daughter, and others on the road at risk. Dealership inspected the vehicle. They found an error code that confirms the occurrence of the problem but they are unable to duplicate the issue. They don't know why it happened, nor can they guarantee that this will not happen again. They said they followed manufacturers guidelines to troubleshoot the problem. Since they cannot find why it happened, they don't have anything to fix, and advised me to pay the labor charges and pick my vehicle. I reported this issue to American Honda. Case # 14229789. They were concerned that the brakes should have responded well since the model is not hybrid or fully electric. This makes me feel more nervous. American Honda said they are going to investigate this and will get in touch with the dealership where the vehicle currently is. This vehicle was inspected and serviced at the same Honda dealership about 3 weeks ago. The vehicle has been meticulously maintained. All routine maintenances have been done at Honda dealership consistently on time. The vehicle has relatively new battery from 2022. I request you to look into the matter and advise.
Right rear passenger door cannot be opened from inside or outside.
My Honda 2017 CRV, EX AWD Touring was serviced for oil change, transmission fluid change and complementary 20-point check on August 8, 2023 by Honda Dealer. Unintended sudden acceleration caused accident at a speed of less than 5 miles while parking the car in empty library parking lot Oct 22, 2023 collision summary: As I was parking the car I turned into an empty parking spot with a speed of about 3 to 4 miles. A Sudden burst of unintended acceleration as I turned to park caused high speed and my car hit a car parked on the opposite side, not in front but adjacent parking spot. This sudden unintended burst of acceleration so quick and forceful that as my car hit the car on the front bumper of parked car. The collision deployed the airbag. I was shaken and traumatized momentarily. I avoided bigger collision and managed to stop the car some 15 ft ahead in the empty space. The door opened only halfway due to damage on front side near drivers door. There was smoke inside the car that scared me. I was shaken and managed to come out safely. I went inside the library and called my daughter. My daughter called 911 to report about the accident to the police. The police and medical emergency came within 15 minutes. I told them that I am alright and no injuries of any type occurred. The policeman was also surprised by this unusual collision in an empty parking lot. After going over the accident he told me that he will not give me a ticket for this incidence. I provided detailed information of patrolman (name, phone number, email) to Jasmine in Honda headquarter office in Torrence CA. I reported issues of my 2017 Honda to Honda Dealer and Honda Office in Torrence, CA on June 27, 2019. No action was taken than. It must be investigated. My car has done only about 25,000 miles, serviced by Honda Dealer, I have a clean driving record since last 25 years. I am scared to drive after the sudden acceleration incident. I am asking Honda to give a replacement car and compensation.
Gear shift knob button broken. Cheap plastic and fell off
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 50 MPH, the vehicle started losing motive power. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was steered to the side of the road and restarted. The vehicle was taken to a dealer where it was diagnosed that the head gasket needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired but the failure persisted. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 70,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that when the vehicle was started, the engine was idling rough. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 107,000.
When I was driving on highway when moving from Texas to Indiana, about 11 warning lights were suddenly on. After sending my car to a local vehicle and mechanic autocenter, the vehicle has been detected code P0172 and P0304 issues which trigger check engine light one along with another 10 warning lights, including turning off cruise control and off-road detection systems. Both my local Honda dealer and mechanic auto center diagnose it as fuel injector faulty and warned me not driving it on highway for potential risk.
Twice in the last five weeks upon accelerating from a stop my car hard braked all by itself with sufficient force to push the driver and passenger very hard toward the front dashboard. One of the times I thought the air bags might have gone off. If someone had been behind I probably would have been rear-ended. In neither of the cases I received any fault or warning lights or indicators nor did I touch the brake pedal.
On October 6, I was driving my 2017 Honda CR-V and it automatically slammed on the brakes in the middle of the road. There were no cars in front of me, no pedestrian, nothing. It was a very strong jolt and I was lucky no car crashed into me due to the sudden stop. This had not happened previously. I took the car to a nearby dealership on October 11. The problem could not be replicated by the dealership. At first, the dealership wanted to blame it on a dirty sensor and close the job. Because I had looked at the NHTSA site, I was persistent that they look at the software. They did say they found a bulletin for updates and that the radar system needed one, so they completed it. I am concerned that most car owners may not even know this is a possible issue until it happens to them and that dealerships may not be aware of this issue and write it off to something else because it can't be replicated immediately.
All dashboard warning lights come on They flash and cycle through. I have reported to Don Wessell Honda and Pineger Honda in Springfield, MO and Honda of Jefferson City, Jefferson City, MO. This stated sporadically in 2021 and is constant in 2023. I have paid for replacement parts based on the best guess of the problem. Scanning tool does not show codes. First alternator, then oxygen sensor and now injectors. Honda believes injectors are the problem. It is over $1,000.00 to replace them. I have found numerous people having the same issue on line. I believe these injectors should be covered under a recall. They are dangerous!!! When the flashing lights go off the car works fine; once they turn on, randomly, the car spurts and dies out. I have no power to drive. I have to manually turn off car and restart it to get power. This is extremely dangerous in the middle of the road. I purchased this vehicle new and had to have the computer replaced soon after I purchased it. It is beyond frustrating, expensive, and extremely dangerous to not have your car perform when your driving down the road. Please recall these injectors before I or someone else gets hurt or killed by the car losing power suddenly when driving. Thank you sincerely.
2017 Honda CRV Ex 1.5 Turbo with 97483 miles while driving Multiple alerts on dash showed up. OBD 2 scanner diagnosed it as P0172. Dealership was informed of the code as dealer code came back the same and diagnose it as failed fuel injectors x4. Showed recall letter dated 7/2019 regarding extended warranty Honda Corp. denied claim.
Torque sensor internal failure causing notchy operation of steering. Safety issue concerning unpredictable jerkiness in the steering, especially at speeds over 40 mph. Confirmed by Coggin Honda of St. Augustine. Entire steering rack had to be replaced at a cost of over $3,300.00. No warnings prior to failure of the system.
Four different times when driving through an underpass. My car instantly slammed on the brakes. Almost causing an accident the last time. I took it to the Honda dealership after 2nd incident and they could not find the problem. Happened twice since then.

The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but provided no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 113,859.
We've had to tow our car to the dealership 2 times due to fuel pump, fuel injector related issues. It seems for the year 2017 CRV this is a very common and known issue but Honda is not acknowledging it.

I have 2017 Honda CRV. I observed that my driver sear cushion is deformed. I took my vehicle to Honda dealer they inspected and said my cushion is deformed and airbag is loose. I called honda and they said they will investigate the issue, they investigated the issue and came back with comments that seat frame is bent and due to vehicle is outside warranty they can’t repair it. I checked online and found that people reported same issue in 2017 and honda fixed those issues. see - [XXX] Now I feel many people like me would have same issue and possible that they even dont know that air bag is loose and I believe its a safety issue. I feel someone should investigate this matter. I found this site and thought of sharing this. I observed this distortion of foam cushion since I bought my car but never gave any attentions to take it to dealer for checkup. I deeply regret it and now I am worried that this loose airbag is a safety issue. I AM SURE THIS ISSUE IS WITH MANY HONDA CRV 2017 CARS AND DRIVERS EVEN DONT KNOW THAT AIR BAG IS LOOSE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. when I was on the call with honda representative I felt helpless as they were like its your mistake , our dealer said its because of outside influence and we cant fix it. I bought this car as new and it was never in any kind of accident. THEY ARE NOT READY TO ACCEPT THAT IT’S A MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

I experienced “phantom braking” while driving across an intersection. The vehicle “brake” warning appeared on the display screen without any obstruction on the road. It then very abruptly screeched to a halt automatically. This incident put my infant, myself, and other drivers at risk. The speed limit on that street is 35 mph. Sudden braking to that degree can cause a collision.
Since 2018 have had sporadic electrical issues, brightness light comes on and then radio goes haywire changing channels on it’s own etc. Warning lights sporadically come on. Rear alert sensor stopped working for a while. Automatic braking has engaged several times without warning and no cars or objects in front of me while driving (very dangerous). When getting oil changes at dealer I mentioned the problem (1st time was radio only and they claimed to do a software update). Next time when I mentioned and showed a video they told me they know there’s a problem but don’t know how to fix it. Yesterday all my saved routes on my GPS including “home” were gone. The problems are becoming more frequent. Several times this week and from what I’ve read many people having the same problem and Honda not recalling the vehicle. Some people told it’s a defective BCM that’s back ordered and others say their cars are stalling, alarms going off , not being able to shut off the car and locks and FOB not working. Of course my car is out of warranty. These are serious issues and I’m afraid that my car is unsafe to drive. Others have claimed that dealers said there are also fuel injector problems. Apparently 2018 and other later models have been recalled but not the 2017. Many others being charged thousands of dollar to fix problem and then the problem comes back again. Someone needs to make Honda correct these serious safety issues.
In August 2022, I started my car and all indicators on the dash were lit. I took the car to the Honda dealership and they explained it was an oil dilution issue which was covered by Honda's extended warranty. Three weeks later after the repair, I started my car and all indicators on the dash were lit again. I took it back to the dealership and they diagnosed a problem with the fuel injectors. The service person that it was not covered under the warranty or a recall, but that they had noticed other CR-V owners experiencing the same issue. I had to have my fuel injectors replaced which cost me $1,491.76. It appears that the fuel injector issue is present on the Pilot, Ridgeline, and Odyssey vehicles manufactured around the same time as my CR-V, but a recall has not been issued. I filed a complaint with Honda to which they replied there was nothing they could do unless the problem was reported and investigated (by whom was unclear). The complaint has been archived by Honda but can be reopened should a recall be issued.
The engine failed and I was stranded 60 miles from home.all the dash lights were blinking and I couldn’t get the parking brake to unlock . It is available for inspection . I was stranded at a service station with another senior citizen for three hours in 100 degree plus weather. We were stranded and our safety was compromised as we waited for help . I had it towed to a dealer 20 miles away . Rented a hotel and got an Uber to the car the next morning . The auto repair person examined the car and determined that the turbo fan had disintegrated and was sucked into the engine . After further rested he reported the engine had failed and it would cost $8 000. Many of the lights and sensors suddenly began to blink . The car lost some power but we were able to limp to the gas station . Hello [XXX] , Here are my technicians findings, due to the metal moving through the oil passages he recommends replacing the engine and turbo "verified engine running rough. retrieved operative dtcs p0299(PGM-FI) and u0416-68(IDSS).

This was first noticed in May 2023 . All the advanced warning signs were flashing And the car would intermittently stall in traffic . The dealer said the fuel injectors were faulty and needed to be redesigned. The dealer said that these fuel injectors were on back order with no availability date. If I continue to drive the vehicle with faulty fuel injectors the catalytic converter would be damaged If I continue to drive the vehicle with faulty fuel injectors the catalytic converter would be damaged. When I bought the car I bought the gold level easy care extended warranty period 10 year a 120000 miles . They deny covering this repair because there was residue on the fuel injectors period period my point of course was they were faulty by design not by my neglect period. It is now mid-september and I have been without a vehicle since June. There was a recall on the fuel injectors of later models of Honda's 2018 to 2023.
All advanced emergency systems kept flashing randomly Without any notice the brakes would lock up. It indicated that the emergency brake had engaged. I could not go forwand I could not I couldn't go in reverse. I was unable to disengage the brake. I went on YouTube And attempted to disengage then randomly I was able to do this period. After having happened intermittently I brought it to the dealer period they scoped it and found no problem. It was a random occurrence there was no rhyme or reason why this was happening . After a while At the dealers it occurred and the dealer said it was the electronic breaking system . This was an extreme safety issue because I did not know when the car was going to stop. It didn't matter if I was going fast or slow it just happened. The only warning that I had were that all the advanced lighting started to flash period but that necessarily did not mean the car was going to stop it was a random you're very very dangerous The only warning that I had were that all the advanced lighting started to flash period but that necessarily did not mean the car was going to stop .It was a random you're very very dangerous I had to pay $2400 out-of-pocket because the dealership did not submit it prior To repairing it to my extended warranty Easy Care Gold level policy for prior authorization (10yr, 120,000 mi.)
I demand answers for the issues I have been facing with my vehicle. I have been to multiple dealerships, but none of them have been able to provide a satisfactory solution. The dashboard lights have abruptly turned on, rendering various features such as radio, HVAC, power steering, brakes, cruise control, and others useless. Every time we have read the codes, different issues have been identified without any explanation as to why they are happening. It's high time that someone takes accountability for the problem and comes up with a solution.
My 16 year old son was driving the vehicle when all of the lights on the dashboard started flashing and alarms started sounding. As a new driver he found this really alarming and didn't know what to do. He was driving along at 40 mph along a local main road and very nearly collided with a vehicle in front of him at a set of traffic lights because he lost attention on the road. He pulled to the side of the road and was then a hazard to other road users and in a dangerous spot himself until he called me and I went out to him in a different car. We drove home carefully as the car seemed to be running fine but he was understandably shaken up. This has occurred multiple times in the last couple of weeks. The car bleeps several times and goes through all of the things that are not working correctly. Emission System Problem, Brake System Problem, Brake Hold System Problem, Power Steering System (EPS) Problem, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Problem), Hill Start Assist Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control Problem, Collision Mitigation System Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, Electric Parking Brake Problem, Tire Pressure Monitor Problem are all shown as faulty. The dealership have now told me that it is a fuel injector problem and they will need to be replaced. Looks like the car is showing an OBD-II code of running too rich and cylinder misfire. I have codes P0172 and P0303 and one other I think. My car has only done 45,000 miles. From reading more about this it seems that the fuel injectors in my generation of Honda CR-V (mine is a 2017) have widespread issues with these components.The fault causes the warning lights to light up like a Christmas tree which can be extremely distracting. All of the safety features also no longer work which is dangerous for the driver continuing to drive in that state. Inexperienced drivers like my son (and anyone else for that matter) can be left in very hazardous situations.
I alone in the car driving on a residential street, about 20 miles per hour. There were no cars in front of me when my brakes slammed on suddenly! I was jerked forward and items that were on my passenger seat flew to the the floor. Thankfully there was nobody behind me either, so there was no accident. It was a clear sunny day with no obstructions. There were no messages or warnings that I saw. This happened about 5 days ago. This has never happened before ( I’ve had this vehicle since 2017) and so far it hasn’t happened again. As far as I can tell there are no recalls for this issue, but I did see in my Google research that there have been other reports by Honda owners of this issue. I have not yet contacted Honda.
All fuel injectors failed per Honda dealership. They pulled error code p0172 from the car. When the fuel injectors fail, all of the car dash lights go on; saying the car has disabled ALL of the car's safety features, including: collision mitigation braking system, road departure mitigation system, lane keeping assist, vehicle stability assist, hill start assist, adaptive cruise control, electric parking brake, and tire pressure monitoring system.
Randomly all sensors will come on, won’t be anything wrong and sensors will stay on. Can’t tell when you have emergency break on during this. Researching and it happens to a lot of Honda CR-V
On 8/25/23 around 6:45am, I was exiting the gas station parking lot going around 15mph, and the car slammed on the brakes. The abs engaged itself even though there was nothing in front or around me. I knew I didn't step on the wrong pedal, because the abs indicator that says "brake" came on and this only comes on when the abs senses something in front of the car. All the stuff on my seat flew on to the floor. This happened once before a few years ago. A few times in the last few years, the car has been glitchy and "brightness" starts blinking uncontrollably on the screen. Sometimes if I shut off the car for a few minutes it will resolve but sometimes not. We purchased the car new and have been the only drivers.
Driving in clear conditions in the evening, the collision mitigation braking system suddenly engaged and activated the brakes bringing the car to a very sudden stop. There were no obstacles, cars, or any reason at all for the system to activate. Nothing was in front of the car, there were no other vehicles in the other lane, there was no glare from the sun, no animals, nothing. I was traveling at approximately 45 miles per hour on a straight, smooth paved, three lane road. The brakes were fully engaged by the cmbs system for several seconds and then the alert disappeared and normal operation resumed. The dashboard "BRAKE" indicator appeared during the incident. It is highly fortunate there was no car immediately behind me, as my sudden and unpredictable stop would almost certainly have caused a wreck.
Started having trouble with the car just suddenly braking on the highway a few times but was able to disengage the ACC and take control of the car. A few times the entire radar system would shut down and I would take it into the dealer where they could find nothing wrong with the car even though by that time ACC would not work on the longest interval setting. Finally on a road trip in the beginning of August 2023 the entire radar system broke and could not be reset. I needed to replace the entire radar system for $1900 on a car that had less than 42,000 miles and is 5 years old!! Not to mention the danger in suddenly stopping on the freeway. I called Honda and they do not have a recall for this problem .... does someone have to have a terrible accident before a recall is issued. Not to mention the cost of replacing the entire radar system.
Beginning 8/22 and currently happening, my 2017 CR-V 1.5L Turbo with 48K miles (and all routine services done at Honda dealership/service centers since buying it brand new) does not engage when going from Reverse to Drive; in 1st gear the RPMS increase up to 3K or so before shifting into 2nd gear. When stopped at a traffic light or stop sign, and the car is idling, when starting up again the car hesitates and shutters before engaging. When on the highway and slow down for traffic or switching lanes, the vehicle hesitates even when pushing the gas pedal consistently or down all the way. I have had the vehicle into three different Honda dealerships/service centers and they can replicate the issue but no resolution as there are no service codes identified during diagnostics and none appear on the dash. First Honda advisor came up with no recommendations; 2nd advisor flushed and replaced transmission fluid; and 3rd advisor suggested testing and replacing turbo at cost of $3500+ and no guarantee it would solve the problem. I am distressed that the issue cannot be identified by Honda and fixed. I fear for my personal safety and that of my passengers as the CR-V is less reliable and I only drive short distances when need be. Taking it on a road-trip or long distance is out of the question. It’s a matter of time before I’m left stranded or in an accident due to lack of throttle response.
I bought this car on April 30,2022 for $30,000. It had18,0000 (plus) miles. Within 6 months the idiot lights would come on and all safety controls were cancelled. When this first happened, I was frightened that I would be involved in an accident or the car would just shut down. I called a Dealer close by and was told by their service manager to take it to an Auto store, have them put it on their computer to tell me what was wrong. I did that. Was told I needed an oil change. Had the oil change and things were ok for about 4 days when all lights came back on again scaring the h__l out of me. Had a private mechanic check it out and was told it needed an oxygen sensor. Then the car wouldn't start. Turned out the battery was low, so I replaced the battery. Warning lights did not go on for a couple of days. I then went to the local Honda dealer who told me to bring the car in and for $190 they would use their computers to tell me what was wrong. Can you imagine what Chutzpa that takes? They, knowing what the problem was yet charging me to tell me. I am now out of State. Took vehicle into closest dealership for oil change, tire rotation. Told service of dashboard lights, what I had done so far, and asked them to figure out problem. They said I needed $1500 fuel injectors which would have been covered by the warranty but that ran out on length of time. The car only had 30,000 miles but was 6 years old. Suggested I ask Honda for an extension of the warranty to cover costs. The lights are still continuously on now. All safety features are essentially off. I am afraid to drive it in fear of having an accident. I have contacted America Honda for an extension of the warranty and will attach that timeline and phone calls to/from them. The reason for doing this is that I do not believe installing new fuel injectors will fix this problem. I think it is in the computer system itself. And I am in danger of having a crash.09
The screen in the middle goes haywire beeping and jumping from screen to screen. I am not sure if it is affecting any other electronic componets but it very well could be.
A/C Compressor Shaft Seal leaking and Honda Dealer - Norm Reeves Honda North Richland Hills in Texas is not able to vacuum the remaining refrigerant out of the Honda CRV 2017 which has only 58k miles. Their new equipment says there is a contaminant on the ac system and refuses to complete the warranty repair. They even mentioned that to complete the Shaft Seal repair, they do not need to remove the compressor. This should be a recall of the AC compressor instead of a warranty extension on the seal. Here in Texas, it's 109 deg F temperature and in the car, it gets up to 119 to 125 deg F temperature during the summer months. This is a major safety issue. Honda will only reimburse for the repair if it's taken to a Honda dealership but the dealership does not have the tools to vacuum out the contaminants. Additionally, the dealership thinks the discharge hose needs to be replaced as well. Due to the centrifugal force of the compressor when it spins, the leaking freon from the Shaft Seal with dye has spun around 360 deg and spread the dye all around it. This has caused the dealership to force the car owners to replace the discharge hose for an outrageous cost of $700+. Currently, the Honda parts website shows the compressor has been discontinued. Please take action with Honda on a full recall of faulty compressors. Many Honda owners with CRV 2017-2021 are seeing multiple issues pointed out during this Warranty claim of A/C Compressor Shaft Seal Leak.
Was about to go to work earlier today, when my husband tried to push reverse button, shifter button was not in place.. Was later found it in the console area and looks like it just broke and fell without any warning. This is scary. What happens if the car was in motion at that time and you need to change gear or reverse?
All warning lights come on until reset. Eventually leads to the car stalling, three times in the middle of busy high speed intersections. Have brought to the Honda dealer multiple times and been given several very expensive fixes that all did not solve the issue. (Spark plugs, fuel injectors(x2), alternator). All safety features are suspended when this happens. I have an open case with American Honda cooperation but they have not responded in 3 weeks.
Fuel injector System issue which disables KEY safety features of our CR-V's when it occurs. An injector issue should NOT cause safety features of the CR-V to stop working (ex. Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, TPS, Hill Start Assist, Braking, etc...) In addition to the disabling key safety features, this CR-V's have reportedly gone into limp mode while at highway speeds. If this occurs to you while you have a 18 wheeler on your rear, you could potentially be in a serious injury/life event.
The radar sensor was stolen in July 2023. A Honda dealer confirmed this. Two representatives of the dealer indicated the sensor can be stolen in minutes without tools from the 2017 CRV and Honda placed the sensor elsewhere in later model CRVs to reduce its vulnerability to theft. Warning lights indicate 5 Honda-installed safety features no longer work without the sensor: adaptive cruise control, lane keeping assist, a collision mitigation system, a road departure mitigation system, and automatic high beams. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. When the sensor is stolen, it is sometimes yanked out quickly (my case), damaging other radar parts. The dealer mentioned above told me replacement of the sensor and repair of the radar would cost about $2700. There are unfortunately strong disincentives to repair the radar, with the result that 5 safety features no longer work: The high repair cost, coupled with the distinct likelihood of another theft given shortages of the sensor and its value, discourage repair. Further, the fact that theft claims with insurers often result in rate increases and many folks have high deductibles discourage repair. American Honda Motor Company, Inc. has refused to provide financial assistance despite its poor engineering having essentially caused the 2017 model theft problem, and despite Honda’s correction of this defect in later year CRVs. Honda also has failed to create a “kit” for 2017 CRV owners to secure the radar sensor against theft. :
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 75 MPH with the cruise control activated, the cruise control deactivated independently. The contact stated that the vehicle started decelerating with the accelerator pedal depressed. There were several unknown warning lights was illuminated. The contact was able to pull over to the side of the roadway. The vehicle was towed back to the contact’s brother’s residence. The vehicle was diagnosed by the contact’s brother, and it was determined that the turbo charger was not working as needed. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 72,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the vehicle went into LIMP Mode while at a traffic light and then lost motive power. The check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, but no assistance was provided. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed that the points, intake manifold, oil rings, fuel injectors, and spark plugs needed to be replaced. The vehicle was previously taken to another local dealer Hardin County Honda 5608 N Dixie Hwy, Elizabethtown, KY 42701 who replaced the points and plugs. The mechanic informed the contact that the fuel system was running rich and with a misfire in cylinders #1 and #2. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was unknown.
2017 CR-V has 55,000 miles on it. ALL of the dashboard warning lights are coming on randomly, causing panic and making it impossible to tell if something is really wrong. Very Dangerous. Honda dealer diagnosis is to replace all 4 fuel injectors at cost of $1,726. There are literally thousands of reports about this online, people being given the same repair fix, often without permanent success, and with having to pay thousands for relatively low mileage vehicles. Honda has issued extended warranty for other Honda models about fuel injectors but has done nothing for the Honda CR-Vs. 2017 seems to be a bad year for this fault. Driving a vehicle with multiple warnings flashing randomly is dangerous.
My 2017 CRV started beginning of this year 2023 one day with all the dash codes lighting up effecting the safety drivability of the vehicle. It would randomly stop accelerating and all driver assist system not functioning properly. Accelerating was dangerous vehicle would stall or hesitate to go and almost caused us to get into an accident. This has been brought to a main Honda dealership in Henrietta New York and confirmed that replacing the fuel injectors would solve the problem and that this was an ongoing issue with the Honda CRVs. My vehicle was one of many that had been waiting for fuel injectors to be delivered at that shop. Based on other forums and Honda sites how this isn’t a recall is baffling. We waited over a month without our vehicle being fixed and unusable because the part was out of stock. Vehicle is still not fixed and we called all out Honda dealerships in Rochester New York today and they ALL are waiting for fuel injectors for the CRVs they have being repaired. I purchased this vehicle known for Hondas reliability but this is EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING you have customers with HONDA brand vehicles that ARE unusable and unsafe DUE TO A COMMON KNOWN ISSUE with the all the dash lights being effected by fuel injectors. This coming from a family of 6 with 4 children. Currently vehicle has been inspected by two auto shops for same issue and replicated codes, and unsafe driving issues with our CRV.
I bought my CRV touring used with 90,000 miles in July of 2022. I’ve had nothing but issues with fuel economy and the car feeling sluggish and held back because it’s not running properly along with getting every warning light on the dash that’s possible when it’s having the issue. P0172 is the code I get and my dealership said it’s the fuel injectors. It is a known and problematic issue that should be resolved by Honda for free because it is faulty. I was quoted $1,388 just to replace the injectors but they’re on back order.
I am unable to seaat five people because the rear seat belt does not fasten. I thought this was a 5 seater car, but it seems to be a four seater. Visitors aattempted to sit in the rear but found the seat belts were not functioning.
While sitting in the longest traffic jam I ever experienced on a hot summer day and not moving, suddenly all lights and driver assistant lights came on the dashboard and the parking brake engaged. I was able to release the parking brake and drive with all the lights lit on the dashboard. My vehicle had only 88K miles. A Honda dealership ran a diagnostics and reported a code po172 engine fuel trim lean so car will need injectors and fuel pipe to fix. I just paid for the diagnostics and not the repair since they were able to reset the computer to clear the problem.
Honda CRV Touring 2017All warning lights randomly remained on. Car braked in traffic, I could not unlock brakes.. After 2 hours of attempting you tube fixes the brakes un locked and car drove well. A few days later it happened again. When I called dealer they said bring it in. At that time they charged to scope it. They said no codes came on . A few days later my battery was leaking battery acid. I jumped the battery and brought it to Sam's Club and they replaced the battery . The car drove fine for a few days.. Then as I was driving home one evening and all the warning lights started blinking again . I took a video as I was driving in order to show dealer.. I brought the car to the deal the next day . They kept it for several days .then replaced the electronic braking system They charged $2100 plus I had a rental for 3 days . The dealer said there might be a fuel injector problem also, so if the lights start flashing bring it in . It would cost another $1800. I got the car back and drove it for about a week when all the lights started flashing . I brought it to another dealer that is 40 miles away . I told the "2nd dealer my story . They looked up my ViN. They told me the electronic brake system was covered under an extended warranty that I purchased when I bought the car . AS I was driving the blinking lights stopped . The dealer said they couldn't scope it unless lights were flashing When lights flashed I drove the car in they said it was the fuel injectors. The code was P0172. I have been without my car since June. ( it is the end of July) The fuel injectors have been disconinued.The dealership doesn't know when the parts will come in . It has been a month more and I have no car . I have spent $$$$ on rentals but it's too expensive . I am now 960 miles from home with no car for several months . I call the dealership and they do not know when the parts will come in Please advise ...
New resistance in steering at highway speed trying to keep steering centered and straight. No indicators or warning lights noting issue. Noted Honda TSB 18-103, 54 vehicles ONLY were recalled. Symptoms similar to TSB, brought to dealer, master tech diagnosed replacement of rack and gearbox, paid by extended service warranty because this vehicle NOT recalled by Honda. Once repaired, within the week on highway the LKAS kept indicating "Steering Required" on a very well marked highway where I never had that issue before, and the LKAS system was very noticeably NOT preventing steering into another lane when turn signal not used. Currently have another appointment to fix that (probably LKAS reset). This entire issue could have potentially resulted in crash or injury if not diagnosed and repaired immediately.
While driving on I-95 near Colonial Heights, VA we heard a loud BOOM - thought it was a tire although I continued to maintain control of car. Saw in rearview mirror, a small shingle-size piece of material fly off top of our 2017 Honda CRV, toward car behind us. Stopped & saw that our sunroof had literally BLOWN APART. The "shingle-size" material was the middle of our sunroof blowing off. Fortunately we had just closed our interior sunshade & fortunately the car behind us did not look to be affected by the airborne sunroof material. There was no truck in front of us (no flying debris from another car) & nothing fell on the top of the car! Had we not had the sunshade closed, 1000's of pieces of glass would've rained down on us, possibly causing me to lose control of the vehicle & quite certainly causing an accident w/those around me. Fortunately we were 1.5 miles from an exit & a Honda dealership (!) that assisted us in attaching Crash Wrap to the top of the car so we could continue on our way home to FL - but not without stopping 4 add'l times & also using packing tape to keep the crash tape on the car (due to rain). Broken glass continued to "rain" down onto the sunshade for the next 700 miles - we also feared the crash tape would come off and whip back at another vehicle. I've documented incident w/pictures, contacted my Insurance Company, American Honda Corp, Holler Honda (local dealer) & am scheduled to have the sunroof replaced in the next week. Am. Honda Corp customer svc was unaware of any "exploding sunroof issues", nor was my local Honda dealer. However, the Svc Advisor @ Honda in VA had actually seen 3 exploded sunroofs since May! After some investigation on my part, I found an active court case of Honda/Acura owners who have also experienced exploding sunroofs. There was absolutely NO warning that predicated this incident. This incident could've had a vastly different outcome had my interior shade remained open.
The Fuel Injectors in this generation of Honda CR-V's (2017-current), have widespread reported issues related to clogged injectors - mostly in 2017-2019 models at approx. the 75,000 mile range. This causes the vehicles computer to illuminate multiple warning messages on the dash board (Emission System Problem, Brake System Problem, Brake Hold System Problem, Power Steering System (EPS) Problem, Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Problem), Hill Start Assist Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control Problem, Collision Mitigation System Problem, Road Departure Mitigation System Problem, Electric Parking Brake Problem, Tire Pressure Monitor Problem). These warning messages are usually related to an OBD-II code of running too rich or cylinder misfire - P0172, P0303, P219F, etc.... Once one of these fuel injector related trouble codes is illuminated on the dash, all the above listed safety features are disabled. In certain cases, the car may even go into LIMP mode - even while on the highway and vehicle traffic behind the vehicle. There are many documented cases online on Facebook CR-V groups, and other CR-V related websites documenting this problem. Again, all related to a potential poor design with the Honda CR-V Fuel Injector in the 1.4L Turbo engine introduced in the 2017 model year - that then disables key safety features of the vehicle! Ex. https://www.crvownersclub.com/threads/2023-fuel-injector-replacement-discussion-merged-master-thread.225172/ https://www.crvownersclub.com/threads/fuel-injector-replacement-discussion-merged-master-thread-now-retired.219349/page-19 Many 2017-2019 Honda CR-V's are requiring the replacement of Fuel Injectors somewhere in the 50-100k mile range. Honda has often offered to cover the cost of the parts ($800+) and the consumer is left paying for the labor ($500-800). Honda, internally, has noted there is a problem with the manufacture of their injectors. Please investigate as this issue is disabling key safety features on CR-V's
All alerts on dashboard are active - Emission, Brakes, hill-assist, auto high-beam, collision mitigation system, etc. Can no longer drive my car safely. Dealer confirmed. The car just had its oil changed and air filter replaced.
I was driving on the Kennedy Express lane in Chicago, IL when all of sudden, out of nowhere, I started losing the ability to accelerate during rush hour. People were behind me and had to slam on their brakes. I had my hazards but it's only 2 lanes and people were honking and flashing me. There was no place for me to pull over. I was able to drive 5-10 miles per hour. The system has been inspected. I was told that the repair could take over 3 months because this is common in 2017's CRV's. They currently have 21 parked on their lot waiting for the same parts. They also confirmed that Honda is well aware of the issue. I was able to confirm on a lot of online forums that thousands of people have been impacted by the same issues. All of the safety lights lit up all a once. There was no way to determine by the warning lamps what specifically was wrong.
In January 2023 all the warning lights in the dash in our 2017 Honda CR-V spontaneously came on. Were told by Honda the system would reset and it did. Then we had to change out the battery which was supposedly the fix when it happened again. Recently the alarm would sound and lights come on when sitting in the driveway and not running. This progressed that day to having to jump start the car. Took it to Honda who diagnosed a BCM failure. Had to leave it there because it would not start at all. New BCM and again a battery installed. One week later all the warning lights come on again. Back to Honda to be reprogramed but told if this happens again would need new fuel injectors??? Apparently, the CRV should not be driven with this problem, as it can cause automatic stops, lane changes and other safety issues. There have been multiple reports of this issue and it is not being addressed.
Major driveability/safety issue. The vehicle started skipping and jerking on highway I-93 on the New Hampshire/ Massachusetts line. I was accelerating to 65 mph and merged with traffic, when the car engine began stalling intermittently. The check engine and maintenance indicator lights turned on. As I coasted to the side of the road, the vehicle continued to jerk and slow/speed up.
The bearing wore out at only 62,839 miles causing sudden and complete engine failure on the highway in the desert near Barstow California. We lost power and the car was shaking and spewing blue smoke from the tailpipes. We easily could have been rear ended at 70 mph but somehow managed to get off to the side of the road and at 2 mph make it up an exit ramp. We had to have the car towed 2 hours to a Honda Dealership in Irvine and it needs a whole new engine. It has been there 17 days (ruining our road trip vacation) and just now is finally getting the new engine. The top of the line $2400 -10 year-120,000 mile extended warranty we bought at purchase is refusing to cover it. The mechanic has found a great deal of metal bits in the oil pan and the number 2 bearing is worn down to the brass like it is a much older car with more miles on it. There were no warning lights on the dash before this happened and the car was not overheating and had plenty of oil and oil life left. This whole experience has been a nightmare. Our North Carolina mechanic sent us Consumer Reports articles about the 2017 and 2018 CRV Turbo engines having a defect causing gasoline to leak into the oil system, thus reducing the effect of the oil on the bearings and cylinders. This is a serious and dangerous defect. The repairs alone will cost $8000 plus the added food and accommodation expenses, towing costs, and the complete ruining of our vacation.
Issue #1: Automatic Braking Self-Engaged. Approximate Date: 11/21/2022 Mileage: 70k I was driving home. I was traveling southbound approximately 40 mph on a 4 lane road (2 each direction). The weather was clear (i.e., no rain or other adverse conditions). No other cars (northbound or southbound), pedestrians, or objects were on or near the roadway and my car, without warning, applied the brakes, hard. The automatic braking system had engaged by itself, without warning. Imagine driving down the road and for no reason, without warning, the car abruptly attempts to stop itself. There's little to be done and it's quite precarious, especially if the road I was on had heavier traffic. Thankfully, no one was behind me or I would have been in an accident. It was pretty scary -- my passenger looked at me and wondered why on earth I'd applied the brakes so hard but I hadn't personally touched them--there was no reason to stop or slow down in the middle of the street that day. When the automatic braking engaged, there was no warning and the vehicle was running fine. Issue #2: Faulty Electrical System + Sensor Failure. Date: 7/17/2023 Mileage: 85k All possible electrical warnings came up on my dash while idling in a grocery store parking spot at the prompting me to research complaints (I didn't know NHTSA handled complaints; hence, I'm filing two simultaneously in this report today). I observe a regular, routine maintenance schedule at the local dealership, and while I expect some maintenance, particularly as the vehicle gets older, I should not be having these types of issues. I was able to clear the dash warnings myself after manually rebooting the system 4 times, but I'm sure that only alleviates the symptoms not any root cause. Based on the plethora of articles on the internet about this, it seems that the 2017 Honda CR-V has some faulty sensors and electrical issues which are a threat to personal and public safety and need additional investigation.
All the warning lights activated when I was driving on the highway and the car made a bell noise to alert me. None of the safety features worked on the Honda CRV 2017, but I was able to maintain driving the vehicle without it. I took it into Tempe Honda Service and they said that the code read DTC P0172 and that I needed to replace all the fuel injectors.
The check engine light on my 2017 Honda CRV came on August 2022 and all safety features of my vehicle stopped working. I immediately took the car to my local Honda dealership. They claim the issue is due to faulty fuel injectors but refused to cover the cost to fix them under warranty even though it’s a known issue with this car and a couple of other Honda cars that use the same system. I’m really concerned as the injector issue disables KEY safety features when it occurs. An injector issue should NOT cause safety features to stop working (ex. Adaptive Cruise Control, Lane Keeping Assist, TPS, Hill Start Assist, Braking, etc...). Honda should be held responsible for putting their customers lives at risk with faulty systems and lack of accountability or solutions.
I just purchased a 2017 Honda CRV the end of May, and while driving in the streets doing Lift, my car SUDDENLY came to a dead stop for no reason! Fortunately, I was NOT on the freeway and there were no cars behind me while driving on a main street going about 40mph. I called the Honda dealership and they could not figure what happened. They only suggested to deactivate the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) every time I get in the car. This was very scary and I find it unsafe and tedious to do this every time! I'm hesitant to drive my car but it's my only transportation! UNSAFE CAR!!!!
Today July 5 while driving on local streets at approximately 35 MPH my brakes activated. As quickly as they activated they released. It all occurred in a matter of seconds. The instrument panel brake warning light flashed "BRAKE". I was not alone in the vehicle when this happened and my passenger was as surprised as I. There were no other vehicles in the area. My car has approximately 51,000 miles. it is the first time this has happened. I have not reported this to my selling dealership but will contact them regarding this event.
Our Honda 2017 CR-V AWD EX randomly braked in traffic causing the car behind us almost rear-end us. We had no warning at all this would happen. No warning lights were on. My wife, myself and our 3 year old were all put at risk. We are waiting a call back from the Honda service department. We had the problem reported here: https://www.cnn.com/2022/02/24/business/honda-cr-v-accord-braking-investigation/index.html
CMBS system in Honda CRV 2017 Driving 25-30 mph on a clear day (sunny, dry pavement) when the brakes engaged without warning (beeping sounded, but I didn't see the "BRAKING" sign in orange blink) car stopped hard, I jerked forward in the seat. I was able to drive the car back home (less than a mile away). There were no cars in front of me and fortunately none in the back of me so this didn't cause an accident. I'm afraid to drive the car in case the brakes engage suddenly and causes a rear end accident. I called my local Honda dealership and made first appt available 7/11/2023. This follows 2 incidents where all warning lights flashed (5/8/2023) and (6/17/2023) (including brake system light) the codes pulled were about cylinder misfire at a Honda dealer (on 6/17/2023 - CMA Valley Honda)
Three years ago all the dashboard warning lights went on in my car saying everything was wrong with my car 'brake system problem,' power steering problem, hill assist problem, etc. etc. etc. I took it to Honda immediately and they had no idea why it was happening. If I spend $4,000 they'll figure it out. Once in a blue moon the lights will magically turn off on its own for two or three days with no problems and then the lights come back on every single time you start the car. 355 days out of the year the lights are on every single time you start the car with no safety features able to work. It's beyond irritating, but it's mostly annoying because when you pay for extra safety features (like lane keep assist) none of them work when the lights are on. NONE. No brake warning, no lane keep assist, nothing. The car runs fine - people who do the tire rotations can't recalibrate it. So I took it to Honda again last week only to be told it is a problem with the fuel injectors and it's mostly 2017 models because of the new engine look. The fuel injectors weren't made properly to fit the vehicle, and the fact thousands of people have had this exact issue and Honda WON'T address it or do a recall, is absolutely wrong and disgusting. It's not a cheap fix. I will never buy a Honda ever again.
Steering feels “sticky” when trying to make small corrections to keep the car straight. By “sticky” I mean a little bit harder to move smoothly than normal to keep the car straight. Or there is more friction than normal when making small corrections to keep the car straight. The steering is not smooth when making small corrections to go straight. The “stickyness” only happens from center and between the 11 o’clock and 1 o’clock positions. Also feels like it does not want to move but then suddenly slips or jerks to the left or right from center. There is sometimes a faint noise from the steering column area with the stickyness – sounds like a little clunk, or squeak like when something is rubbing and needs grease or lubricant or worn out. When does it happen? Seems to happen more often after driving for a while like over 30 minutes. Happens both when lane keep assist is OFF or ON, does not matter. More frequent at speeds above 35 mph Happens less frequently on short drives. Happens more frequently when driving straight on good, flat, smooth roads. No issues noticed while making full turns, only when driving straight. Seems to be getting worse/more frequent.
Rear driver side door does not lock nor do windows go up or down. Car does not start with remote.
When driving straight the steering makes an unexpected jerk on ITS OWN to the right or left. The movement is a small JERK on its own from the 12 o'clock center position to about the 1 o'clock or about the 11 o'clock positions. After it moves on its own, it feels loose or like there is a dead spot where there is NO CONTROL, It feels like it slips/jerks when I move it back to correct the steering to the 12 o'clock center position. Feels like I have to fight with the steering to keep it centered when the unexpected movement happens. Happens both when lane keep assist is OFF or on. More frequent at speeds above 40mph and highway speeds 55+mph Happens less frequently at lower speeds and on short 5-minute drives. Happens more frequently when driving straight on good, flat, smooth roads.
On major highways with traffic, the car would idle rough before conking out completely, especially upon acceleration. In cases where I needed to accelerate to merge into traffic, it was very scary, unpredictable, and unsafe. All warning display messages came on as well. Two mechanics have looked and the second mechanic stated that there's a common issue with fuel injectors for 2017 Honda CRV's. Since it's such a common problem with these cars, the fuel injectors are on a very extended backorder. So, he replaced them with after market injectors and deemed it safe to drive. I drove it to work the next day (again, on a major highway) and the car died again upon acceleration.
Car has been shuddering upon start and occasionally while in park or drive with foot on brake. All dash lights have come on multiple times while driving and will usually be reset once turning off the car. Took to two dealers over 1-2 years and was told they could not find an issue. Shuddering got worse so we returned to one of the dealers who told us there was a code firing for the fuel injectors and that they needed replacement but were backordered indefinitely and car would not pass inspection without them. Research online shows this is a very common issue with our year's model and they are backordered due to the high number of needed replacements.
Environmental safety issue: Honda recently extended the warranty on its air conditioning systems due to a known issue of faulty compressor seals. This should be a recall. Many thousands of vehicles (mine included) have been venting their refrigerant into the atmosphere. Even more will do so in the future.
We have experienced 3 episodes where all of the system failure alarm lights have been activated. The battery was replaced and the fuel injectors were cleaned after the first 2 episodes. On May 19, 2023, we were driving on I-5 north 100 miles from home when the warning lights came on. We turned around to return home. The car went into limp mode and could only go 10 mph over the passes. This was dangerous considering the number of trucks traveling on the highway. The following week it was determine that the turbocharger had failed due to a clogged oil filter screen. All of the scheduled maintenance, including oil changes, had been performed by the Honda dealership. There have been reported issues with the engine in the 2017 Honda CR-V, including oil dilution problems.
Honda CR-V head unit or central console refuses to dim. This is a serious safety threat as display is glaringly bright and distorts night vision. I did take the vehicle to dealership for inspection and recommendation was to replace the head unit as they think this is a hardware issue. Professionally, I am a software engineer and I find it very hard to accept that this is a hardware issue. The hardware otherwise works perfectly with no defect. Judging by my experience this looks like software is overriding user inputs. Internet forums are full of similar reports by many users. As this can be a serious safety issue, I request you to look into this issue.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving approximately 15 MPH, the rear middle seat belt locking mechanism suddenly became unlocked causing the car seat to become unsecured. While attempting the reattach the seat belt, it was discovered that the seat belt locking mechanism would not remain securely locked. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The local dealer and manufacturer were not yet notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 113,000.
The 2017 CRV stopped with no apparent reason whatsoever. We were driving about 45 miles an hour with my family in the car and for no apparent reason the car engaged is braking system. There were no cars in front no pedestrians nothing. This is happened several times and I'm afraid to put my new 17-year-old driver behind the wheel. We had a near miss and almost got rear-ended I hope that they can come to a resolution as to this issue because obviously there is one.
Week of April 11th, While driving the car, the vehicle would start to shake and the following warning messages came on as the vehicle would start to decelerate making us drift to the emergency lane avoid getting hit by an oncoming vehicles. The following messages came up on multiple occasions on the panel. (note, we could only select 3 options above so were not able select all of these) 1. Collision Mitigation System Problem 2. Adaptive Cruise Control Problem 3. Road Departure Mitigation System Problem 4. Electrical Parking Break Problem 5. Tire Pressure Monitor Problem 6. Power Steering System (EPS) Problem The car was inspected by Danbury Honda service department, who informed us that it was a blown head gasket. The car is a 2017 purchased in 2020 by Danbury Honda Dearlership. As we worked primarily from home for the last 3 years, the car was not driven that often and oil changes have been up to date. There have been no signs of leaking or overheating including the temperature gauge not showing any signs of overheating and remained in neutral or below temperature. The Danbury Honda service department could not explain how a blow head gasket was possible. We then proceeded to have it inspected by Danbury Brewster Service Department week of April 18th, who informed us that it was a spark plug issue. And there was no indication of a head gasket. After spark plug was repaired, the car was being driven with no issues and on May 4th, the incident above happened again (again no overheating or leaking). We went back to Honda Brewster who said it was a blown head gasket with no explanation as to how this as possible. We are attaching the service technician inspection report and photos. This has caused anxiety and stress where we are not safe driving the vehicle. Our daughter just recently obtained a license and, thankfully, this did not happen to her. We have been fans of hondas for many years and between us have owned 4 honda vehicles.
In late summer of 2022 I had a visual warning "BRAKE BRAKE BRAKE" while I was driving on a highway. There were no cars in front of me for at least several hundred yards. This was distracting to me as the driver, but fortunately there was nothing that required my attention at the time. Over the ensuing weeks this happened several more times, always on a highway at highway speed. At first I thought it might be reacting to a sharp shadow from an over pass, but it happened on overcast days as well as sunny days. It did not happen at night. The frequency of these visual alerts gradually increased until October 8, 2022, when the visual warning flashed and the brakes were applied by the automatic braking system. Again, there were no cars ahead of mine. If a car had been tailgating me, it would probably have caused an accident. I took it to the dealer the next day, and after interrogating the computer, they determined that no fault was recorded. Privately, I was told that this was a known issue, but it could take up to a year for the software patch to be released, and in the meantime there was no recourse. I sold the car back to the dealer that day, purchasing another car that they had on the lot, because I felt that the vehicle was unsafe and I was unwilling to drive it any longer.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving approximately 45 MPH and accelerating to merge into highway traffic, the vehicle shuddered and started to lose motive power. The contact stated that the vehicle slowed to 20 MPH and would not accelerate while depressing the accelerator pedal. The contact stated that the check engine warning was illuminated. The contact had the vehicle towed to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that three fuel injectors needed to be replaced. The vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.
Twice while driving the car slammed on the brakes by itself, once driving 25 miles and once driving 38 miles. Both times there was no debris/object that could have included the car to sense an impending commission. Both incidents were sudden and without warning, scaring my child in the back seat and almost causing an accident by my car becoming close to being rear-ended.
i was driving on local street at 35miles and my Honda CRV2017 suddenly started beeping with BREAK message and after few second before i do anything it did automatic hard break. i was alone on street and other car before me was atleast 5-6 cars distance ahead. i read online where multiple people complaint about same issue so i'm reporting it here. earlier i was getting few break warning without any car ahead or near by but this time it was hard break which may have caused rear ending if other vehicles are behind me. recently my car passed inspection and i'm seeing this kind of issue.
CRV was running fine with zero problems prior to this incident. Stopped at a red light and when the light turned green the car would not move. Transmission would not go into gear. Dealer has vehicle and stated that the belt in the transmission broke, 2nd shaft not moving. Requires a brand new transmission
While driving all these systems will start flashing and no longer work. The dealer's fix it to simply reset the codes. So this can happen at any time and be a risk to the driver and people in the vehicle and around it. This has happened numerous times in the 5 years I have owned this vehicle.
BCM (Body Control Module) failure/malfunction in 2017 Honda CRV EX with under 65,000 miles. Symptoms of the problem prior to diagnosis include multiple electrical system malfunctions: auxiliary mode automatically turning on and remaining on by itself (when car parked and unoccupied), door locks inoperable, vehicle not responding to key fob, car alarm going off by itself continuously (when car parked and unoccupied). Only solution to get all of the noted symptoms to stop is to disconnect the battery or wait for the battery to fully drain of power. Vehicle was taken to local Honda dealer and was diagnosed with failed BCM module. Informed currently the only remedy is to replace the BCM. BCM part number 38809-tmm-a11 is under nationwide shortage (current 4-6 month wait)to do manufacturing delays and other recall issues for other vehicle models. Therefore, vehicle remains inoperable for safety issues with the electrical system until part can be replaced.
I was driving and put on the air conditioner when a decrease in the engine power occurred. Then all the safety features installed on the car rotated on the dashboard, in addition the check engine light and all the other yellow lights were on and there was a lot of white smoke coming out of my exhaust.I then took it to my mechanic who diagnosed it as a turbo booster failure. It is a safety issue due to my engine could have seize or caused a fire since I was driving on a highway at the time.I found out my extended warranty expired in April, one month before. Also, the mechanic showed me the turbocharger and the turbine wheel was moving around when it was supposed to be in a stationary position.
As I was driving several warning beeps sounded and several different malfunction alarms showed on the dashboard including cruise control, brake system, and lane mitigation system. When I parked the vehicle the emergency brake light continued to flash and would not engage. I was able to turn the vehicle off, wait a while and resumed driving to get home. The brake light did remain steady when I turned off the car, but it appeared that the other malfunction alarms were still in effect. In addition, a few days prior while driving on the freeway, my dashboard monitoring system dimmed unexpectedly. When I pulled off the freeway I was able to access and recover the light/dimming system. My vehicle has only 45,000 miles. I have experienced other odd electronic problems that resolved spontaneously in the past. However, these issues are worrisome and feel unsafe, especially when they occur while operating the vehicle.
The Body Control Module has failed. Since all of the safety features in/on the vehicle are monitored by this part is the vehicle actually safe to drive? That is the question I have posed to 3 dealers. None have been willing to say that it is absolutely safe. The part is on national backorder with no availability date provided. Can you tell me that the vehicle is safe to drive?
On 2017 CRV with just over 100,000 miles has experienced multiple rear door lock actuator faults impacting both rear doors and the rear hatch release (locking them all in place and not able to unlock with the power switch or key fob), and as of last couple weeks our vehicle experienced a sputtering engine and sometimes would hesitate to start (or wouldn't on the first try). The culprit of the issue was the fuel pump, which had internally degraded and ultimately couldn't produce the pressure necessary for proper fuel delivery. This has been diagnosed and reported by a local independent shop (Honda Master Mechanic though) and is currently being fixed. I will have an invoice for repair once the part arrives and is installed (the replacement pump is on national backorder). I can also confirm that the pump being replaced in my 2017 CRV is a Denso unit as well, and is original to the vehicle. Currently, Honda has an active recall for fuel pump failures, but only in CRVs from 2018 and 2019 (not 2017, although I can attest that some 2017 models are being impacted). Honda had originally recalled those pumps from 2018 and 2019 models (plus those from Accords, Civics and some Acura models) due to safety issues related to fuel delivery system failure. Those safety concerns should be extended to all vehicles being impacted.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 15 MPH, the accelerator pedal was depressed; however, the vehicle failed to exceed 15 MPH. The contact stated the uphill assist, the emission system, the check engine, and the brake warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that there were several other unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact experienced the failure for a second time on 5/23/2023. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with needing the fuel injectors to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to the parts not being available. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V442000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 121,000.
The car cabin smells like gasoline due to faulty fuel injectors. I tried getting Honda to fix it and they claimed it was a software issue. After the software update the very next day the car showed 6 different warnings. The warnings would come on intermittently but now they are always showing. When the warning lights weren’t on the car would stop abruptly due to the front end collision system. I tried to get them to fix the warning lights and they wanted me to shell out close to 2,000 dollars to replace a part that’s only about 200 dollars retail.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the brake warning light illuminated intermittently, and shortly afterwards, the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) activated independently. The contact stated he was able to continue driving to his destination. The contact also stated he had experienced the same failure on 5/18/2023. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer and made the dealer aware of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer had not been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 38,000. The VIN was not available.
We were driving about 35 mph when the car suddenly beeped a warning “brakes” while simultaneously SLAMMING on the brakes. There was a metal construction plate on the roadway at the place where the incident occurred. My left wrist was injured as it was bent back by the steering wheel, my wife wasn’t watching the road and is complaining of neck pain/strain. We feel very lucky there was no one behind us at the time.
When driving normal speeds, the automatic emergency braking system activated and brought the car to a complete and sudden stop for no reason. There was nothing in front of me and thankfully, no one close behind me. I am terrified to drive my car now. What if I was in front of a tractor trailer or dump truck and then system engaged again for no reason?
The Body Control Module has internal failure. The lights, alarms, locks and dashboard, when not running and locked up in garage, spontaneously come on. When driving vehicle warning lights flash about problems that don't exist. Apparently, the CRV should not be driven with this problem, as it can cause automatic stops, lane changes and other safety issues. This has been a recall in numerous other Honda CRV's, however American Honda refuses to recall 2017's. I believe there are 2 reasons for this; the part is on a National Back Order and the cost to repair is $800. There are many reports of others having the same issues with their 2017 CRV's, I hope we don't have to wait until something serious happens before you have Honda recall the 2017 for failed Body Control Module- the brain of the car. I leased and then purchased this CRV, it has been well taken care of by the local Honda dealer. It was a case manager at Honda who suggested I contact you, as you can do recalls. I have the Paperwork and info and will be happy to email it to you if you need it. Thank you.
AC went out, system charged, went out while driving. 100 degrees outside and car only blows hot air. Not safe for anyone to be in it for prolonged periods of time
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while accelerating at slow speeds, the vehicle the Forward Collision Avoidance Automatic Emergency Braking feature inadvertently activated. The brake warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was advised to take the vehicle to the dealer for assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 56,500.
The vehicle seems to drive normally. When I go to turn off the car after parking, the engine turns off but the electronics do not - this uses all of the battery in the state. I took to dealership and they said bad Body Control Module (BCM). Honda recently recalled 700,000 vehicles because of BCM issues however CRV wasn't one of them - I suspect I am having the same issue - the replacement BCM, I'm told by the dealership, is backordered several months. I have a car that I cannot drive. This needs to be investigated.
rear driver door - controls to the window , door locks, and speaker stopped working. After inspection by the dealer, they say there is a broken wire in the wire harness. How could this happen?? Caused doors not to lock and auto start would not work.
The airconditioning system has quit working. The item has not been inspected by a dealer or mechanic.
Vehicle is going in to 'limp" mode at highway speeds without warning. All safety features including ACC, LKAS, Emergency Braking, Collision avoidance, brake hold do not work when this happens. Vehicle must be pulled over to the side of the road, shut off and then restarted to allow car to operate at normal speed until the issue occurs again ( usually 20-30 minutes later). Brought car to Honda and they confirmed fuel injector issue. Part is discontinued and new parts not available. No recall, but incidences where all warning lights come on the dash are all over user groups on the internet. Problem ALWAYS comes back to fuel injectors. The main issue is that it goes in to limp mode with no acceleration available without warning. This creates a HUGE safety issue in rush hour traffic. Honda does not acknowledge the problem with the injector and can offer no information as to when replacement injectors would be available.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while turning off the vehicle, the alarm started sounding off independently. The battery warning light was illuminated. The contact had to remove the battery terminals because the vehicle was not recognizing the key fob. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the dealer stated that the VCN needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired due to parts availability issues. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 84,945.
The emergency braking was turned off by me a few years ago due to this happening before. Today while I was driving about 35 mph, my car did a hard brake pushing everything including myself to the front giving me whiplash. Good thing nobody was behind me or else they would’ve ran into me for sure. There was nothing even in front of me to even cause this to even happen. I will be calling the dealership about this tomorrow. There was no warning lamps, messages or anything else to indicate this was about to happen or should be happening.
I was driving on the highway with cruise control on when I felt a slight stutter and loss of speed, followed by all my dashboard warning lights turn on. When I tried to press the acceleration, I could only maintain approximately 20mph, with high RPM. The car actually felt like it was maintaining 20mph without any acceleration input. I pulled over and shut the car down. After waiting a while, I restarted the car. All the warning lights remained on, but it seemed I was able to drive the car normally. I decided to drive it 30 minutes to the dealership along back roads not going over 35mph. The dealership "reset" the warning lights and completed several test drives, but they were not able to diagnose the issue. It has been a couple months since the issue and it has not reoccurred, however I have noticed an occasional stutter when trying to accelerate. It is unsettling to know it could happen again, and it seems there is no way to diagnose the problem.
All indicator lights on dashboard are light up. These lights are on even though there is nothing wrong with the car. I’m not able to use my emergency parking brake or parking hold. All the safety features like lane keeping assist and cruise control is not available. Replaced battery hoping it would work and no change. I plugged the car into the tester and nothing comes up. Now I can’t pass emissions due to all the lights and can’t re register my car because of it.
As I depressed the start button to engage my car’s engine, the right rear passenger window spontaneously shattered. The car was parked at the time and there was no motion or contact to the window when the window shattered into multiple fragments. There was no evidence of damage to the window prior to this occurrence.

Collision Mitigation system problem indicator light causing random braking and false brake warnings
Since 2019, my indicator lights come on all at once, and despite it going to the dealership multiple times, it has yet to fixed, and they continue to charge me for diagnostics. Research shows that many Honda owners experience the same thing. Now I'm being told it's my fuel injectors, which is baffling. They will not address this systemic mechanical defect.
My wife was driving the car with her 2 friends on highway left lane , all the sudden the engine light flash and the engine was stalling (cannot accelerate). She was driving 55mph before , all the sudden she only can driving 20mph even she gas up. Luckily she was able to pull over to the right lane and parked on the right side zebra lane. Then I went to help my wife I was only 5-10 minutes from where she was. I drove off the highway with 22mph even I gas up (unable to accelerate past 25th). I got out the highway then turn off and on the engine then the light disappeared. Next day we drove then emission system problem light turn on, same turn off and on the engine then the light disappeared. Next day Monday I went to my mechanic and he told me there no light on , come back when the light on. Same day Monday we drove the emissions light turn on again after we drove about 10-15 miles, I went to my mechanic and he told me there problem with the fuel system, the car unable to burn off all the fuel and the fuel get into the engine. There is a problem with the designs on the fuel and injector system and there was a recall in China and service bulletin 19-037. Of course the light turn off after my mechanic change the engine oil which in China Honda performed oil change for life for all the crv which sold in China. My mechanic did the oil change and tell me go to the dealership as soon as possible. So I went to the Honda dealership next day and they told me to pay for the diagnostic but the light not on , it does not make any sense for me to pay $179 and no code since there no light turn on on the dashboard. I told them I just want to fix the problems which stated on the bulletin, but they refused, I spoke to the manager and Honda customer service, they told me same thing, need to diagnose before anything can be done. I suggested the Honda recall all model crv from 2017 to fix the defective design problems before anyone get serious injury. Stalling is a safety iss
What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? 2017 Honda CR-V transmission (CVT) has a leak. Brought to Honda dealership, they diagnosed with faulty torque converter seal. Yes, it is available for inspection. How was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? Transmission fluid is leaking, will lead to possible transmission failure in near future at any time. Has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? Car was taken to dealership and they told me it is not worrisome that transmission is leaking and to check the level more frequently. Looked on Honda forums regarding issue and problem happens in all honda models with their CVT and wide mileage range on cars affected. Has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? No. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? No. Problem was noticed when I went underneath car to change engine oil. Transmission fluid covered the bottom of transmission. Car's undercarriage was covered in fluid.
The lights on the dashboard turn on and off and electrical systems do not work. This has been a continuous issue for over a year.
All safety sensors on the dashboard are lighting up without any reason. Car is able to be driven properly (for now) but every safety sensor appears when I turn the car on and when I drive the car. From what I've read on the internet, could be a fuel injection problem.
There is a KNOWN issue with Honda's Body Control Module (BCM) in 2017 Accord, Pilot, Insight, but except the CVR. Upon researching online, it looks like many 2017 CRV owners are experiencing the same issue with the BCM; CRV is not being recalled, but all other Honda models are. Bought it to our car technician, he indicated many CVRs are experiencing the same issue and recommended us to bring it to the Honda dealer. The Honda dealer wanted to charge us $1,700 to repair it, which is unacceptable when the BCM should be added into the recall as many parts are supplied by the same vender. Why did CRV is not part of the recall?
Car goes into limp mode because of misfiring in cylinders - fuel in oil and In cylinders. Paid to flush injection system and clean oil of fuel and in two weeks it went back to the same issue. There is a known fuel/oil mixture issue and this is that problem.
I was idling and all the warning lights came on. Car seemed driveable, but we replaced the battery as it was still the OEM battery. This did not fix the issue and all safety features are disengaged.
Have owned the vehicle for 6 months. In that time the vehicle has applied braking by itself more than 10 times when there has been no reason (no car in front, no debris in road, no adverse weather, nothing but clear pavement), . Happens on low speed roads (35 mph) and also on highway speeds. Have been lucky not to be rear ended or cause another type of accident due to drivers avoiding the my car that is emergency braking for no reason. The times the vehicle flashes the "BRAKE" warning is 30 or more times (not applying the brakes - just audible alarm and message). Out of all those times, there were 2 instances that made sense for the vehicle to flash a warning. All others were false positives that frighten the driver and cause significant distraction from the driving task. This system should be shut off. The vehicle is less safe to drive with the system active. HELP!! Honda service has been no help on this issue.
Hello team, There is an ongoing issue with HONDA CRV's where all dashboard warning lamps turn on themselves and keep beeping and flashing, affecting all electronic features on the car. So many people are complaining about this issue, check google or You tube but Honda is not recalling these cars and if you are past your manufacturer warranty, the dealership charges a heck of money and when they fix the issue, that's a temporary solution as the issue comes back just a few days after. I would like to raise this issue and I hope my voice will be heard. I am a Canadian customer in Mississauga, I could not find the right form for Canadian customers Thank you
There is an aluminum cover that is bolted under the engine (lower engine cover, Honda part 74112-TLA-A01). This cover must be removed in order to change the oil. Twice now the cover has fallen off the engine while driving at highway speeds, causing the driver to have to stop suddenly. The car is then not drivable until the cover is bolted back. This could very easy cause an accident and steering problems. It seems to be a poor design and there are many similar reports on the internet.
I was going ~60-65MPH on the Ronald Reagan freeway east bound on a rainy day at ~ 3:40pm on 27th December 2022. I was going on the second from left lane between the Rinaldi and Porter Ranch exits. Unbeknownst to me this part of the freeway is notorious for flooding in the left lanes. I applied the brakes gently to slow down my car. Suddenly, I felt I lost steering, the car skidded the steering wheel turned left into the median barrier. The car then made a complete U-turn in the direction of traffic and flipped over one complete revolution. Fortunately, nobody was injured in the crash and other cars were not involved. There were no warnings and indication that the car was hydroplaning. The skidding safety feature was turned on. I released the car to the insurance company to recover monetary loss and I don't have any information on if it was inspected. CHP has an accident report with number 9580. The reason I am reporting this incident is because, I believe me gently braking to slow down from 60-65 to 50-55MPH should not have caused the car to U-turn and flip. I believe the 2017 Honda CRV safety system malfunctioned because unbeknownst to the Honda Sensing system the car was already hydroplaning. It braked and made some automatic steering and braking decisions that caused the car to turn and flip. I believe the control algorithm of the 2017 Honda CRV failed to detect the car was hydroplaning and subsequently executed steering and braking decisions that caused the total loss of my car.
28198 miles on the car. Very dangerous braking event. Going 20-25 mph on access road to the town hall and out of nowhere the CRV jammed on the brakes once with enough force to throw me against the steering wheel then a few seconds later a second hard braking episode. I parked the car and when I returned and started it back up...I "turned off" or supposedly "disengaged the system" figuring I could drive it home with no incident. A few miles down the road, going 40 mph the vehicle attempted to brake again just not quite as hard even with the ACC/lane departure/mitigation system turned off via the control on the steering wheel. Could lose control of vehicle if going fast enough. Getting hit from behind due to violent sudden stop. I intend to have car towed by Honda to the dealership when I am available to meet the tow truck after filing report with NHTSB and Honda. No warning lamps or issue of any kind which is to be expected with only 29K on the car. I did notice that morning the bars which show distance till system is supposed to sense items in front of the car were not being displayed. Normally they are displayed full time and didn't think anything of it till after the braking event. Very dangerous unexpected, no warning braking events.
1 year ago, 1/26/22, my 2017 Honda CR-V experienced a sudden loss of power/acceleration and every error message that could possibly turn on flashed on my dash display. The error messages displayed were very alarming as I remember some of them indicated braking and safety features failing. I was driving on an interstate at a speed of at least 60 mph and had to merge across two lanes of traffic to the nearest exit. I was unable to drive my vehicle any faster than 20-25mph but I was able to drive to a local Honda dealership (Buerkle Honda in Vandais Heights, MN) for diagnostics. I was told that the turbo charger needed to be replaced. I did not ask for any diagnostic details at this time and no root cause for the turbo charger failure was given. It was implied that it was not something completely out of the ordinary for a turbo charger to fail on a vehicle after 90k miles. January 5th 2023, less than a year after the turbo charger had been replaced, I found myself on an interstate again and experiencing DejaVu. The exact same symptoms that I had experienced with the vehicle before (warning messages, loss of engine power) happened again. This time the same dealership (Buerkle Honda) told me that they suspected oil sludge had clogged the oil system and caused the turbocharger to be starved of oil. They also told me that the engine would need to be replaced. This time the vehicle had 108k miles and was no longer in warranty. I brought the vehicle to my mechanic and was given a very different explanation. They changed the oil and found a significant amount of fuel mixed with the oil. They also noticed the engine air filter was saturated with oil (picture included). The saw that a vacuum hose had split and become "gummy" likely due to gas fumes infiltrating the vacuum system (picture included). The oil dilution problem is a well known issue with Honda MY 2017-2019 CR-Vs and this is just another result of Honda failing to find a solution for it.
The battery in what used to be my 2017 Honda CR-V had a constant draw. The electronic emergency brake always drew from the vehicles battery when it was off, and would even drain the battery when there was a severe change in the temperature of the weather. This is a premature drain. Honda previously had tried to resolve my issues by replacing the battery. The diagnosis on their first attempt was less than stellar, all the Honda dealership did was replace what was a perfectly good battery and claim the vehicle was fixed. This suggests they never properly tested the battery, but instead made an assumption and took an advantage to make a profit off of their customer. Within three months, the battery was drained again, and needed to be jumped. This suggests the original battery they replaced, had no issues. After the battery had been jumped, there were three months of the battery operating. Then this past December, the battery once again suffered a premature drain. The vehicle was taken back to the dealership. This time the dealership claimed to have "updated the software" of the vehicle, thereby resolving the issue. The dealership gave us credit for the diagnosis, but not the previous battery they replaced. After taking the vehicle home and testing the battery after this so called "software update", the battery was still low and suffering from a constant draw. Upon further investigation, there is an entire law suit filed against Honda over this exact issue. This issue was listed as a recall by Honda, except there is no solution to it. This a premature battery failure issue. The law firm FeganScott has lawyers that mentioned Honda even knew about this in regard to the CR-V models from the years 2017-19. This is completely unacceptable for a manufacturer to sell vehicles that were not engineered properly with such an issue. Honda needs to be held accountable and needs to fix these vehicles. Additionally, this is absolutely a safety issue for their customers.
Brake sensor warning light randomly came on. Emergency brake would't disengage. ABS module defective and had to be completely replaced and reprogrammed. Vehicle has less than 75000 miles; one owner.
The Emissions Systems light came on my dashboard. I took the car in to the dealer and they informed me the code "P219E" came up and the CYL 1-3 failed rich, meaning the fuel injector is not metering fuel correctly.
At approximately 10:15am on 1/7/2023, I was driving down Westport Road at approximately 45mph. As I approached the intersection at Town Center Drive the collision warning system alert started to go off. There was no car in front of me and the cars on Town Center Drive were at a stop. As I went through the light, without warning, the automatic breaking system engaged, bringing my car to a complete stop. Fortunately, there was no car behind me or there would have been a serious accident.
The Body Control Module failed and needs to be replaced this has been verified by our local Honda dealership service center. After driving home the car would not turn off it took multiple attempts and then the alarm would start going off consistently and the lights and all dashboard would come on by itself. This then drained the battery and made the car unusable. The dash showed numerous error messages such as keyless start system problem, braking problem etc. I had no signs of anything being wrong with my car prior to this happening and I service my car regularly. This part #38809-TMM-A21 is on backorder and apparently has been since last year. I could be without my vehicle for months as some other customers have been due to this same problem and no part to replace the BCM.
I bought my Honda CRV in 2017 brand new, I have replaced the battery 3 times since then. This last time after replacing the battery all warning lights displayed. All warning lights cycle through. When these warning lights cycle through I am not able to engage any of my safety features. I was able to resolve the warning lights from displaying by driving 5 mph and then hitting the brake, but upon driving my car again later that day all warning lights reappear. As I am not able to use safety features on my car due to these warning lights being active, my car is deemed unsafe. It also appears on research that many owners of this vehicle are experiencing the same unsafe issue with no confirmed resolution.
I have 2017 Honda CRV, approximately 65,000 miles, the issue is warning lights keep showing all the messages possible in the dashboard. Tried to reset or reboot, it temporarily disappear then come back again. Brought to the authorized Honda dealership, on their diagnostic, Honda said it is Fuel Injector issue, which is hard to believed for that amount millage, the other issue is the cost to replace 4 fuel injectors of at least $1400. Search in internet that this is common problem to CRV, and also other model. The issue should be recall by Honda since this is happening to most CRV models, I'm just disappointed that when you heard that Honda is a reliable car manufacturer, and cannot fixed multiple warning lights problem, and Honda said it is fuel injector problem, which you think is a software problem is just concerning to other new buyers, I wish new buyers would see this complaints, so they don't have the same problem we are dealing now.
Part number 38809-TMM-A21 diagnosed by dealer as failed. Symptoms include the car will not shutoff, alarms on all safety features. Car horn (alarm) goes off unpredictably. Car has 46K miles. Parts are not generally available on back order for months, dealer says that they have a high number of these cases waiting for parts.
On six occasions, two of which were within the last month, my car has breached automatically for no apparent reason. It has stopped quickly from high speeds, and I am concerned that I could be rear ended if the car stops without warning. This has occurred on the freeway, and on the regular streets, with and without shadows, present, with and without rain. It has only happened during the day.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 65 -70 MPH and attempting to pass another vehicle, the accelerator pedal was depressed but the vehicle failed to respond and decelerated unintendedly. The contact stated that the vehicle gradually decelerated from 65 MPH to 40 MPH. The check engine warning light and other unknown warning lights were illuminated. Additionally, the message 'Emission Failure" and other unknown messages were displayed. The contact veered to the side of the road. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle; however, the vehicle would not exceed 45 MPH. The warning lights remained illuminated while driving. The contact stated that when the warning lights turned off, the vehicle responded as needed while driving. The contact stated that the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the spark plugs were replaced; however, the failure reoccurred intermittently. The contact stated that the failure then became more frequently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 200,000.
The radio/head unit screen suddenly dimmed to the lowest level while driving making the screen unreadable. The screen shows radio details, Google Maps, Phone and many climate control functions. Access to the screen is needed while driving in order to change climate control settings, etc. Pressing the brightness buttons did nothing and so I had to pull over. The only way to address the issue was the restart the car. This is a known safety issue with this model year CRV and Honda won't repair (update the software) without payment. As a safety defect this should be covered under warranty or recall.
Recurring parasitic battery draw down to below normal level to start vehicle. Have replaced car battery 4 times in ~2.5 years (8/20/20, 5/2/21, 12/1/22, all by AAA, & 12/13/22 by Honda. Honda performed battery test & updated VSA module & initialized sensors 5/4/21 (TSB A17-032, 6/14/17). Battery died again and replaced 12/1/22. Honda dealer said battery dead on 12/13 and AAA installed a bad battery on 12/1/22 (less than 2 weeks since replaced). Honda dealership unwilling to acknowledge what is a systemic electrical problem, diagnose repair &/or replacement options, and fix it for free. Have spent almost $500 on car batteries in -2.5 years. I believe this is an unreasonable out-of-pocket expenses. Noticed same problem reported in Internet forums. Google “2017 CRV battery problem” for more examples reported by other CRV vehicle owners. I believe that this problem is an extensive one that affects many owners and should be determined to be a safety recall issue. Now I have no confidence in the safety of the vehicle and won’t be driving it at night so as to avoid the possibility of being left stranded away from home.

The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 45 MPH, the vehicle experienced unintended braking. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that after several minutes the vehicle started to operate normally. On another occasion while driving 70 MPH, the brake message illuminated; however, the vehicle remained operating as needed. The vehicle was not diagnosed. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 93,000. The VIN was not available.
Fuel injector for Cylinder 3 failed. This has been a 6 month issue starting with simple cold start issue misfire with cylinder 3 (didn't know this was the issue then). I mentioned this issue at my last oil change (about 3-4 months ago) due to it getting worse, and was told there was nothing wrong with my car. A couple months later, I noticed my AC had quit blowing. Fast-forward to 1 week ago, I got on the interstate and tried to go around someone when my car went into full idle mode because of the misfire with cars speeding behind me and a car to the right of me and could not get over for safety. This almost caused a crash on the interstate due to the misfire issue. I took my car into the dealer today (December 5th, 2022), and was told it was a misfire with cylinder 3 (code P0304), and it was the fuel injectors. I did have them fix the issue since I need the vehicle. Honda Recalls specifically state that there is a misfire issue with P0304, but says it does not include my VIN. I believe this is an error on their behalf since half of the issues described in the recall notice describes the issues of what was happening with my vehicle.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving, the vehicle failed to exceed 10 – 15 MPH. The contact stated that the parking brake warning light was blinking. The power steering and ignition warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where the contact informed that the radar was dirty. The contact had the vehicle washed but the failure persisted. The vehicle was taken to another local dealer, Honda of Seattle (2005 Airport Way S, Seattle, WA 98134) where it was diagnosed that the fuel injector, throttle body, and fuel system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that the failure was related to NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V442000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
11/21/22: I was driving on a city street at the posted speed limit ( speed limit 25mph) and I noticed there was some road construction ahead that included steel plates on the street. There was no car ahead of me, but there was traffic behind me. I slowed and then braked slightly so I wouldn't hit the plates at full speed. Right then my car literally "slammed on the brakes" and I came to a complete stop before crossing the plates. Everything on the passenger seat flew to the floor and the car engine died. I did see an orange warning but it happened so quickly I don't recall what it was but I'm guessing it was the BRAKE warning. Thank goodness the driver behind me was paying attention or this would have caused a rear end accident! I did not go to the Honda dealer at the time but I read about this same type of issue which I think was caused by the Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS). I also read that this system cannot be turned off. It's just a matter of time before a serious accident occurs as a result of this defect in the CMBS system!
The car is suddenly braking at random times and has come close to causing me to be rear ended a few times.
The push button knob on the gear shift broke when putting the car into reverse, during normal use. This resulted in being unable to use the gear shift to shift gears. This put passengers and pedestrians in danger in a parking lot, as the car was then unable to be shifted into park. When the CRV is unable to be put into park, the engine will not fully turn off. A 29 May 2019 Honda Service Bulletin exists for this problem and is found on NHTSA.gov. There were no warnings or symptoms before the incident occurred.
In May of 2022, my CRV showed many warning messages for nearly every system in the vehicle including emissions, brakes, power steering, vehicle stability assist, adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation and several others. A friend had the same thing happen except he was traveling at 70mph and experienced a very serious, life-changing car crash. I had my vehicle towed to Honda dealer and was told there was a misfire on cylinder 3 (PO303) and that cylinder 1 looked worn as well. They replaced spark plugs on those cylinders (though I requested they do all 4 at once) and the A/C unit. Apparently this is a "known problem" to Honda but I was never told things to watch for, or to bring the vehicle in for service, until it was inoperable. The dealership gave me a copy of Service Bulletin 19-032 by Honda-- dated June 18, 2019 and said the "good news" was they would extend my warranty for an additional year. If there were another issue, I would not be on the hook for repairs. Only 6 months later, all of the same warning lights came on again-- this time as I was driving my 3-year-old to daycare. I pulled over and again had the vehicle towed. The dealer reports the same diagnostic codes and issues, but this time says their repair flow chart indicates the next step is a $1500 fuel injector replacement. Somehow, despite being distinctly related, it is not covered by the extended warranty. To my understanding, fuel injectors do not generally need replacing in my area before about 100,000 miles. My vehicle has 70,000 miles on it. My question is, what if this costly repair works for 6 months & then I have the same systems malfunctioning again? What's next on the flow chart & how much will that cost? Most importantly, what if I'm driving at 70mph with my toddler in the back seat when the brake systems go out?? Honda knows this is a serious problem & should have responded more meaningfully years ago. I've loved my CRV but can no longer drive it with confidence.
I was driving about 25mph, nothing in front of me, when the automatic breaking suddenly beeped and engaged — slamming on the breaks. Luckily there was no one behind me or there could have been an accident. I've lost all trust in the system and am now terrified of it, but I cannot disable it permanently.
While driving at approximately 35 mph with my foot on the gas pedal, the brakes abruptly and forcefully engaged causing my vehicle to come to a complete and abrupt halt. Upon looking at the dash board, the word “brake” was present. There was no oncoming traffic, no intersection present , and a vehicle some distance behind me. Upon contacting Honda online, they shared that there was no open campaign regarding my issue and suggested that I contact the local service department.
Was driving down hwy about 60 miles per hour when the car abruptly almost came to a complete stop on its own and the brake light warning flashed up on dashboard display. There were no vehicles on the road ahead of me or, thankfully, behind me. Would have probably went thru windshield if I didn’t have seatbelt on and would have been rear ended if someone had been following me closely. Was extremely shaken up by the incident. Called dealer (Jeff Wyler Honda in Florence, KY)and left a message as got no answer when I called regarding incident. No one from dealership has gotten back with me yet
My vehicle received a new battery, which resulted in all dash lights coming on and staying on. Dealer advised that fuel injectors need to be replaced. Contacted Honda Corp. after reading that Honda had extended the warranty to cover some CRVs up to 200,000, in which my would had been covered. I do t know why getting new battery would results in lights coming on but no problems until then.
Driving along going 30mph, all of a sudden my automatic braking came on and put on my brakes for no reason. I had no one in front of me and it is a good thing nobody was behind me or I would have been in an accident.
for the 3rd time the vehicle's brakes have failed. First time was April of 2021 when the brakes failed and the car went backwards and did not stop and knocked over my mailbox and went into the road. I then put the car in drive and went forward and had to put the gear in Park quickly. I had the Honda dealership examine the car and found no problem. The same problem occurred earlier this year when I backed up and the brakes failed the same way. This time I went into the street. I had the car towed to Honda dealership and they found nothing wrong. Last Wednesday I was slowly pulling into a car space when at a low speed the brakes failed and slammed into a client's building. Damage occurred to their building. I am waiting for the dealership to examine the car Wednesday Nov 2. I am afraid to drive the car.
My car brakes itself on my road and it took about 20 minutes of turning it off and back on to get 15 feet to my driveway. My car also started shaking and steering to the right on its own, I had a very difficult time not crashing. while I was on the highway with my 4 year old son in the back seat
The issue was reported on 08OCT2022 to a Phil Hughes Honda. The vehicle was brought into the Phil Hughes on 13OCT2022 due to all the lights on the dash were lit up but was drivable to the dealer. Prior to completing the Service Bulletin 19-032, Phil Hughes Honda diagnosed with P0301 (Cylinder 1) misfiring and P0172 (fuel system too rich). The lead service tech has already mentioned the root cause is the fuel injectors causing the misfire and fuel system too rich. I had the vehicle for less than one day after the completion of the service bulleting 09-032. There was lost of power on the road on three (3) different occasions. Loss of power means the vehicle went into "limp" mode during normal road driving and dropped acceleration from normal speed 60mph to ~20mph and continued to decelerate to about ~10mph. The vehicle was pulled over, turned off for about 5 minutes, and turned back on with all the warning lights remaining lit. All the warning lights remain on and was diagnosed again by Phil Hughes Honda and, this time, they got more codes. But, this time there were misfires with Cylinder 1, 2, 3 AND 4 which would be codes P0301, P0302, P0303, P0304, and P0172 fuel system too rich. Again, the root cause has been diagnosed to be the fuel injectors. Case # [XXX] is open Honda of America has been contacted and Case # [XXX]. Honda of America classifies fuel injectors as an emissions part which is hard to believe as fuel in delivered to the engine which the engine is part of the power train. Honda Service Bulletin 19-032 says the POSSIBLE CAUSE is "Based on certain driving patterns and environmental factors, the DTC's state above may set or whirling noise may occur). This is not true and the true root cause is fuel injectors. This is a HIGH RISK that is waiting to occur and there could have been a FATALITY as the vehicle dropped in deceleration in the middle of the street and someone could have gotten rear-ended and killed.

VEHICLE'S AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS BY BRAKING WHEN THERE IS NO VEHICLE, PEDESTRIAN, OTHER OBJECT, ETC IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. THIS HAS OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY 10 TIMES.
When pressing with my thumb the button to shift to reverse, the button popped out. Upon examining the button, the end was broken off. With much effort, my husband was able to press it in enough to get it in reverse and then forward. He had to leave the car running when he bought the parts at Honda to fix it. He then brought the parts to a local mechanic and he was able to fix it. The mechanic told him that many tiny pieces had to be cleaned out of the section where the button belongs.
While driving approximately 40mhp on a city road, without anything in close proximity in front of me, the Automatic Emergency Braking engaged for no reason, causing the car to slow down dramatically. No accident occurred, but this put me at high risk of being rear-ended. On at least 3 previous occasions, while driving on the highway (approx 65mph) the system has flashed the "Brake Now" warning when there was no need to actually brake, though in those circumstances the actual breaks were not engaged, it did startle me to start to break without reason, again causing increased risk for causing an accident.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at approximately 15-18 MPH, the vehicle experienced phantom braking. The failure caused another vehicle to rear-end his vehicle. No injuries were sustained and no medical attention was received. The air bags did not deploy upon impact. No police report was filed. The contact was able to drive away from the scene of the collision. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The contact related the failure to the automatic emergency braking feature; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 68,000.
The automatic gear shift button completely broke off cant shift into any gear we bought it used and you can tell whoever had it before us or the dealership glued the button back so it worked for awhile
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, several unknown warning lights were illuminated intermittently on the instrument panel. The contact stated that the failure became recurrent and that the warning lights remained illuminated. Additionally, the contact stated that several systems and features were no longer operable, including adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist, road departure mitigation, electronic parking brake, brake warning, and brake hold systems. The dealer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed there were no recalls associated with the VIN. The approximate failure mileage was 140,000.
On Monday, September 12, 2022, while driving approximately 40 mph on a city street, my 2017 Honda CR V suddenly, and on its own, began breaking violently. My vehicle went from 40 mph to 15 mph in a noticeably brief period. A very frightful experience. My wife, who was sitting in the right front passenger seat, and myself were jolted forward. Luckily, there were no vehicles behind me, nor were any vehicles in front of me during this time. I immediately pulled off the street. I shut off the ignition and sat for a few minutes before continuing to my home, approximately two miles away. There was no advanced warning from the vehicle's information system. I called the local Honda dealer and made an appointment to have the vehicle checked. I explained the problem to the Honda service personnel. I was informed that this was a problem known to Honda and I would be notified when a recall notice was issued. In the interim. I was told to disengage the collision mitigation system every time I start the vehicle.
Unknown. Intermittent multiple warning lights on dashboard flashing without incident resulting in all safety features being disabled. Occasional unnecessary extended automatic braking incidents putting occupants at risk of collision from rear vehicle.
Shift button knob broke on April 20- 2022 Location of the vehicle was out of the USA. Local Honda dealer was notified about the recall and ordered the parts, the replacement of the knob was done May May 10- 2022. I payed for the repair and Honda corporation denied a reimbursement.
Fuel injectors failed at 45k miles, resulting in PO304 and PO172. Engine dies at speed causing the vehicle to stop and requires a restart to resume acceleration. Problem is intermittent and happens without notice. Dealer confirmed failed fuel injectors. Vehicle stops enters limp mode (0% power, does not respond to accelerator input) at random speeds. vehicle needs full stop and restart to resume driving. Yes, Dealer confirmed fuel injectors are faulty and suggests this is fairly common with this model CRV Yes, Honda will replace the injectors. Suggest the failure is common but not covered under warranty or goodwill repair All dashboard warning lights (Brake System Failure, Parking Brake Failure, Traction Control, Power Steering, Lane Keeping, Malfunction Indicator Lamp, Etc.)
Driving in my neighborhood there is construction work being done, where metal plates have been placed in the road. When driving over these metal plates, I begin to lightly apply brakes as to slow down driving over these metal plates. The Automatic Braking System alerts me to BRAKE in the Notification Center of my dashboard & automatically applies the brakes to a complete stop. This has happened twice now, in the same place of my neighborhood resulting in my seatbelt tightening & the car to jolt myself forward. Eventually this will result in an accident if there is a car traveling behind me the next time I go over these metal plates. This problem has been reported my numerous other drivers of 2016-2020 Honda Vehicles and is currently under investigation. After my research, it has become clear to me that when vehicles are taken to dealerships after these incidents they are returned without any indication of problems with the vehicles. I have a small child and often travel with my dog, unrestrained in my vehicle as most pet owners do and am concerned that if they are in the vehicle the next time this happens & there just so happens to be a car behind me, one or all of us would be hurt. Because Honda is taking its time to address this problem, and issue a recall the dealerships will do nothing about it until that point.
All 8 systems associated with collision avoidance, lane change warning, tire pressure, cruise control, braking system, and engine electrics are flashing warning lights about 80% of the time. The car runs but these systems are compromised (cruise won't work, emergency braking doesn't work, etc.) The dealer has told me different things each time he has diagnosed it, the latest being a need for new turbo units, but the number of people who have this problem and get different "solutions" from dealers only to have the problem return indicates a systemic problem.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving approximately 35 mph, the collision avoidance system suddenly activated causing the vehicle to abruptly stop. The contact indicated that no other vehicles or objects were nearby to cause the collision avoidance system to activate. During the incident, the contact sustained injuries to both shoulders and head and neck injuries. No medical treatment was required. The local dealer and manufacturer were notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 64,000.
My CRV turns on the emergency braking warning visible on my dash. There is no reason why it should be doing this. It is random. So far the car has not slammed on my brakes it's just giving me the warnings. I have never been in a situation that required emergency braking. Although I have had multiple events I just found this website and used today's date.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, several unknown warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic on multiple occasions and the contact was informed that the failure was electrical. The computer was reset however, the failure persisted. The contact then took the vehicle to a dealer where she was informed that the fuel injector needed to be replaced. The manufacturer was also notified of the failure and linked the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 17V442000 (Fuel System, Gasoline) however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 70,000.
The shifter knob fell out of the shifter while in drive (operation) causing the vehicle to not be able to be shifted into neutral/park when stopped. The issue is a known issue as reporting in TSB 19-063 but the VIN of my vehicle is not included in the TSB.
While driving on the freeway at 65 mph, the car's brakes suddenly went on causing the car to swerve and almost be hit by another car. This is the 3rd time that this has happened in the last year.
Sometimes the braking system will flash even when I am not close to any cars in front of me. I have read reports that the automatic emergency brake system has fully engaged in other cars while driving on the highway and while mine has not fully engaged, it has flashed a warning sign which worries me that one day it will engage fully while I am driving!
I was driving at approximately 10 to 15 mph down a one-way street and without warning my automatic brake system engaged while simultaneously sounding the beep. It brought the car to a jerking halt however, there was nothing in the way, no vehicle no pedestrian and no objects.
I was driving down the street. The speed limit of the street is 55mph. I was driving between 45 and 55mph. The car suddenly broke. There were no cars or other objects in front of me that the car should have been braking for.
Automatic emergency braking activates when there is nothing in the path of the vehicle, no obstructions, no weather issues.
The automatic braking system slams on the breaks randomly in the middle of the road if an object out of the ordinary is detected. It has happened 3 times and could have risked my safety/life. Today 9/10/22, there was a metal plate in the road to cover a pothole in Memphis TN. I was on Perkins in a very high traffic area and my brakes were applied that brought the car to a literal screeching halt. The last 2 times it happened it was when there were orange road barrels on the side of the road.
while shifting into park shifter release button came out.Plastic broke on shifter release button.Had to temporarily reinstall button each time want to shift.I see there are a lot of complaints of same problem.Have worked for 32 years as an aircraft mechanic and know a part not designed correctly.
All warning lights start cycling through and flashing. Not able to use the automated driving system at all. Honda diagnostics reports all 4 fuel injectors need to be replaced. Fuel is too rich. This is NOT just a cold weather problem. I live in Arkansas and it has been happening all summer in 100+ degree heat.
When driving short and longer distances, typically at speeds consistently over 35mph the steering wheel seems to "lock" in place or feels "stuck". There is also an associated creaking sound. The locking up/stuck is pretty easily resolved, SO FAR. This behavior started this summer and happened practically all summer any time I drove anywhere. (The fields below don't allow me to enter multiple dates/ranges.) My kids are almost 17 now and I cannot help them work on driving miles to get their licenses because I feel my car is unsafe to drive. This identical behavior has been pretty well documented in several years of the Honda CRVs on a Honda forum (https://www.carproblemzoo.com/honda/cr-v/steering-problems.php). The mentioned forum has examples where much more extreme results occur where steering locks up while turning and cars become undrivable. Reports are that Honda has been unwilling/unresponsive to address/resolve. I've had my Honda dealer service team trying for over a week now to get Honda to either cover the steering replacement or authorize covering it via my extended warranty. This shouldn't take so long to approve and I believe Honda should cover it. My car is unsafe to drive and this warrants further action. Honda is not acting in the best interest of the public and is complicit and responsible for any injuries or death resulting from this issue. I hope The NHTSA is able to do something to light a fire under Honda to get some attention on this issue, on behalf of all Honda drivers.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 50 MPH, the vehicle independently stopped with an orange-colored warning symbol on the instrument panel. The contact stated that the Forward Collision Avoidance system had engaged while driving under a highway sign. Upon investigation, the contact discovered that an investigation had begun on the vehicle for NHTSA Action Number: PE22003 (Forward Collision Avoidance) which he linked to the failure. Neither the dealer nor the manufacturer had been notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 45,000.
I was driving on a residential road where repairs are being done to the road. There were two metal plates in the road covering the hole where workers have been doing ongoing work. As I approached the plates doing perhaps 25mph the warning system to brake sounded and automatic braking system engaged and brought us to a near stop before disengaging. No one was behind us but if someone was we certainly would have been rear-ended.
I was driving down the same stretch of road and time of day as the previous complaint I submitted. There were no cars (or anything else) in front or behind me. The road was clear. The “brake” symbol on the dash flashed on the instrument cluster. There was no beep or brakes applied.
The vehicle performed emergency braking suddenly. I was on a straight stretch of road with no vehicles in front or behind me. There was nothing in the road in front of me. It was clear. The vehicle beeped, the "brake" flashed on the instrument cluster and then the vehicle applied the brakes on its own. The episode lasted 1 to 2 seconds. Luckily no one was behind me. The problem has not been reproduced or inspected by the manufacturer or other party.
I was traveling over the weekend (700 miles). I stopped at a convenience store, went to shift in to Park, and there was no button left in the shift lever. I was able to shift to Neutral so I did not drive through the front door. Had this happened while in a roadway, it could have lead to a far worse outcome. I was able to figure out how the inner parts of the level are aligned to shift gears and finish my trip, with several interruptions as more and more pieces fell out and changed my ability to get the shifter to work in a new way. I have found ample videos on the repair process as this appears to be a very common issue. This affects the functioning of the transmission and is very dangerous. I cannot find any open recalls for my VIN. If this has been replaced before, the replacement is also defective.
I've reporter to Honda dealer about seat and brake pedal squeaking when pressed several times when my vehicle was under warranty. They always said its normal wear and tear. Car only had 12,000 miles on it at the time. Fast forward to 30K miles, they finally greased the brake pedal and noise went away for another 10K but returned. I was then told its hydrolic brake so it's normal. But I know its not normal to have squeaking noise like that. Moreover, seat squeaking noise has gone worse now. I can literally not take the noise to the point I try not to move at all while driving. I was told this is normal behavior and if I want to replace it it'll cost me $$$$. This should've been covered under warranty and I have few other friends and coworkers with similar issues and they're also being told to deal with it. Adaptive cruise control is ok as long as you don't change the lane or someone in front of you doesn't change the lane. I was going 45mph one night when I had adaptive cruise control turned on. It was seeing the car in front of me and there was a red light coming up. Car in front of me decided to change lane and after that my car failed to recognize the car in front of me stopping for red light. I was at 25mph due to all cars slowing down but as soon as the car front of me changed lane, my car speed accelerated to 45mph and almost hit the car stopped at red light. I slammed the brake so hard to avoid the accident that night. My entire family was freaked out after that and stopped trusting adaptive cruise control.
Body control module failure. 800K recalls for models excluding the CR-V. Part unavailable. Causes flashes lights and battery drain.
While parked and off, car alarm (horn) starts going off and lights are flashing. Even though car is not running, instrument panel is lit up, ac fan on, and dash displaying every possible error. Car would not start. Only way to get alarms to stop was disconnecting battery, Towed to dealer who said it needed a Body Control Module (BCM) and there is no firm delivery date. They were able to reset errors and said it was SAFE to drive. After returning home, after stopping car, same thing started. Ended up disconnecting battery whenever car was parked. After about a week, it got to point where engine WOULD NOT SHUT OFF, even pulling battery cable. The only way to get it to shut off was to pull the fuel injector fuse. After a few times of this, it got in a lockout mode where would not recognize key fob. Towed to dealer and there it sits, a 5 year old car awaiting a BCM which I HOPE fixes the problem but I am NOT convinced. Interesting that Honda can find BCM's for NEW cars but not for current customers... The above is a summary of the issue. The full details can be found here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1pyf9xcBQCbp-bzV9n0fo5_ibQ4FkATxhdm9nDK4vjG8/edit?usp=sharing
on 5/7/2022, noticed vehicle overheated with no warning indicators other than temp gauge had risen. upon checking vehicle noticed cooling fan was not running and found coolant low. fan would run when AC was engaged clearing possible faulty fan. upon adding coolant, the fan engaged itself. This appears to be a flaw in the design of the electrical system of the vehicle that could lead to disabling the vehicle due to overheating with no prior warnings or indicators, especially since the fan is unable to run when the coolant is low to help keep engine cool.
At about 9:15 a.m. today I was lightly braking as I approached an intersection where I needed to turn right. There were no vehicles in front of me. The weather was clear and dry, about 70 degrees. As I slowed, the AEB system flashed BRAKE several times, and then the car came to a sudden and complete stop. The same thing happened to this car at the same spot several months ago under the same circumstances — no other traffic ahead and good weather. There is a metal plate on the road ahead of where these incidents took place. The plate has been there for years and we drive over it all the time with no problem. But when no cars are ahead, could the AEB system be mistaking the plate for an obstacle?
For some time now nearly 4 years of owning this vehicle, I have seen all of my light indicators just turn on without any reason. The only way to turn them all off is by taking of the red cable from the battery and putting it back on....
I was driving on a rural/suburban road at approximately 40 mph when my Honda CR-V threw on the brakes and slammed to a complete stop on its own. There were no vehicles in front of me or coming toward me. Fortunately, there were no cars behind me. There was no warning, it just happened. My car has Collision Mitigation Braking System (CMBS) technology on it that causes the car to brake I get close to a car in front of me. I believe it was this system that malfunctioned. My 4-year-old son was in the car with me, and both of our lives would have been in danger if there had been a vehicle behind us. I took it into the Honda dealership and do not plan on driving it again until this issue is resolved.
All warning light come on, anti-theft system activated and horn goes off randomly. Can’t stop the honking without disconnecting the battery. Sometimes you can’t turn the engine off at all. You have to keep trying about 20-30 times before it will stop. The headlights will turn on by themselves and the battery drains. Now- even with a new battery, the car won’t start at all. The BCM part 38809-TMM-A21 is on National Back-order because it’s the same part for the 2018 Honda CRV that IS on a National Recall. Why isn’t the 2017 also on recall for the same part problems
The shift button broke off and became unusable. Driver was able to temporarily reattach the button, but the button’s plastic broke, making it impossible to reattach.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that after starting the vehicle, several unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that while attempting to turn off the vehicle, a message to depress the START/STOP button twice instead of once was displayed. The contact had not taken the vehicle to the dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to the dealer. The approximate failure mileage was 22,000.
The push button on the shifter broke and fell out. The plastic piece is broken but luckily if we hold it in, it still shifts for now.
I was driving down the highway and all ADAS lights came on and kept repeating. I reset the system but the warnings remained. I took the vehicle to local mechanic who plugged in his scanner. The first thing that popped up was wheel speed sensor along with all the other ADAS warnings. Did alot of research on the internet and found out this was a common problem with the CRV. I decided to buy a new sensor and replace myself. This actually solved the problem. Why do all ADAS lights come on for one problem?
Emergency braking engaged unexpectedly, electronic module failure ,all warning lights flashed on the information system , vehicle would not turn off, headlights flashing, windshield wipers engaged without input from driver. Transmission would not engage. This would be very dangerous if had occurred on highway , it occurred in a rural area with very little traffic.
air conditioning temperature does not work. no matter what degree, the hot air stays the same, including the lowest degree on the air conditioner register "low". There are no warning lights displayed and there are no leaks detected. I am seeing many other complaints like this and mentions of recalls, but I cannot find a recall notification anywhere. I have less than 26,000 miles on my 2017 car.
Shifter button fell off. I was looking for recall information when I found this for. Nothing else has been done. I was parked at the time.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the Forward Collision Avoidance braking system erroneously activated causing the vehicle to abruptly stop. The contact indicated that the failure had occurred on multiple occasions. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer were the computer software was updated; however, the failure persisted. There was no further information available. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 150,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the Forward Collision Avoidance system activated and the message “BRAKE” was displayed before the vehicle stopped. During the failure, no other vehicles or objects were nearby to cause the system to activate. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer was notified of the failure but a diagnostic test was not performed. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 29,000.
Parasitic battery draw. I’m being told this is what is causing my repeated issues, I’ve had the car for 3 years and have replaced the battery 4 times. All warning lights keep cycling despite consistently having it looked at for diagnosing. Today the car would barely move- it powered on just fine, but despite depressing the gas pedal- it would barely move more than 5 miles per hour causing severe risk in the road
All light indicators are turning on, making my dash look like a Christmas tree. Happens atleast 3 times a month
I cranked my vehicle as usual, and all of the safety feature warnings began to cycle through on the dash and ding as it changed from one alert to another. I turned the car off and restarted it, but the issue continued. I drove to the store and the warnings continued to cycle through without the dinging sound. When I arrived back home, I looked online for similar issues and found that other owners of the same vehicle had experienced the same issues. There were some owners that noted that they had been told that Honda was aware of the issue and did not currently have a fix. At the advice of one of the posters, I disconnected my battery and reconnected. It didn’t work right away, but the alerts did go away after being cranked a couple more times. The car seems to drive fine when the alerts appear, but it’s very concerning as I do not know why it keep happening and what it means about the safety features of my vehicle.
I was driving on I-94 in Chicago on 6-22-2022 at approximately 50mph. There was no one in front or beside me and the AEB system braked on its own and the "BRAKE" alert on the dash flashed momentarily. The car slowed down about 10-20 mph and I brought it back up to speed. This is the only time it has happened and it was terrifying.
On Saturday June 18, 2022 at 9:56 a m I was pulling my 2017 HONDA CRV into a parking space at my local Food Lion in Madison, NC. As soon as I took my foot off the gas pedal and slowly pressed the brakes, the engine immediately revved up, accelerated highly and lurched forward not stopping until I hit an unoccupied vehicle head on in front of me. At the same time side swiping an unoccupied vehicle to the left of me. Thankfully no one was injured. Total of {3} vehicles involved causing several thousands dollars of damage. Was inspected by the police and there were no warning signs; it just happened immediately. When researching on line about problems of HONDA CRV"s this issue was listed numerous times: UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. Something needs to be done about this problem before people are killed!
Yesterday as I was driving my Honda CRV at about 55 mph on a rural road, it suddenly stopped. There was NOTHING around, no other cars, animals, NOTHING! It took my speed down to about 10 mph in seconds, threw my groceries on the floor HARD. I called two different Honda dealerships and the both told me they hadn't heard any reports of this happening, yet I did a search and found that it IS an issue! The one dealership wants me to bring my car in for inspection to the tune of $139. The problem is, I no longer feel safe driving this car! Fortunately I was on a rural road and not the highway! There have been NO warning message or other symptoms prior to this. The forward collision is the issue. This car is available for inspection. Any other questions, contact this email: marshajean53@gmail.com or cell: 260-350-4429 Thanks you, Marsha J McAlister06/
CMBS or forward collision warning system misinterpreted several times. Car stopped suddenly for no reason while driving. Nothing was in front of side of the car! It’s really dangerous to drive in this vehicle, that’s why I always turn off my CMBS feature while driving.
I parked my car in the garage. I can't start it. The light of break system is on.
The automatic brake system comes on and brakes with nothing in front of the vehicle while the vehicle is moving at variable rates of speed. Sometimes 25 mph on a country road, sometimes 65 on an interstate. This is putting myself at risk and others for a rear end collision for sudden stops for no reason. I did take it to a dealer who did diagnostics and said there was nothing wrong because the last 5 times there was something in front of me per the computer. I can just confirm this has happened many times w nothing in front of me. They also charged me diagnostics for this and when I contacted Honda they just said my vehicle was not one of the ones affected and was not under warranty any longer or recall. The only light that happens is the brake assist light that states “.brake” and then suddenly beeps at you comes on and the car starts to brake.
There have been four separate incidents now when the automatic braking system has engaged without there being anything in front of me. When this happens, it skips over the chime and notice on the dashboard and goes straight to slamming on the brakes. On all occasions I was traveling under 40 mph and fortunately there was never anyone directly behind me. If there had been someone behind me, I likely would have been rear-ended. I have reported the problem informally the dealership (when I was there for other service), but it's difficult to replicate as this has only happened a handful of times in the last 4-5 years. I do not remember if the dealership specifically investigated the problem on my vehicle.
I started my car and shifted into reverse. The silver part of the gear shift popped of and fell into the foot well. I was able to pick it up and hold it in place and shift the car but it is clearly not safe.
shifter knob button broke off! unable to control car when this important gadget is broken! can not control the gears now. can not move to P or D or R, etc. no warning at all. just fell off yesterday. luckily this happened while it was parked in a parking lot.
Road mitigation system randomly flashing “brakes” despite no traffic in front of car, clear roadway, no rain/weather issue. Multiple times
Was driving on open road, and the automatic braking system engaged randomly for no reason. Jerked me forward in my seat when absolutely nothing was on the road.
The gear shift popped off making us unable to put the car in drive whenever it was in park. The gear shift also came off as well.
The gear shift button popped off while the car was in drive. The plastic broke, making it impossible to reattach. In order to switch the gear, I had to reach into the gear shift with my finger to manually press down where the button was. It would have been impossible to quickly shift my gear if I had needed.
I was parked at a local pharmacy. I put the vehicle in reverse and the car would not move I had to call a tow truck to take my car to my home. I was advised by a mechanic who read my car electronically that it was the RR Brake Caliper Only the left side is responding the right is totally out and that's why it's locked up. I now have to take my vehicle back to the Honda dealership to get it fixed. I've had to get rides to work and unsure if this is covered under my warranty. If not I'll have to pay with funds that I do not have. The vehicle had been shaking slightly as I made stops that day. If I had been on the road I may have been rear-ended if I had to make a stop. There were no warning information messages prior to this incident occurring.
On three occasions - most recently on May 22, 2022 - the emergency braking system stopped the car completely for no apparent reason. If there had been cars behind me, all 3 times would have cause collisions. Dealer service department would not acknowledge the problem, even though I explained I had read about other complaints. Vehicle has not been inspected for this specific issue. No warnings prior to the random failures
While driving the emergency braking will automatically slam on the brakes when there is nothing there. It alerts of lane departure when still driving within the lane. Fails to alert of vehicle in blind spot. Issues are intermittent, but I fear they may cause me to wreck.
My Honda CRV's shift knob button broke off while I was driving. I had a hard time parking the car. After 20 minutes or so of trying, I somehow managed to park the car. After I parked, I noticed there were broken pieces of plastic inside the shift where the knob button was attached. I was scared to drive after this incident. Also, I felt this as a safety concern as I can't imagine my daughter being in this situation as she will be a new driver soon. I am attaching the pictures for your reference. Thank you.
This problem has happened several times. All of the system warning lights activate. Electronic emergency brake, driver assist, tire pressure, lane departure, emergency collision warning etc. etc. etc. approximately nine total. None of these features work after the system lights activate. If the emergency brake and other features won’t work it is a safety issue ! The only way to reset these features is to unhook the battery for approx 5 minutes. I’ve complained to the dealer with no solution. After the system is reset it lasts for 3 or 4 weeks and then starts again. This problem started approx 6 months ago.
Brake warning activated for no apparent reason and brakes were engaged while traveling at 45 mph and 30 mph on two occasions. Fear rear end collision, but in both instances there was no collisions. Have not taken it to dealer based on research of this problem as reported by other drivers. No inspections were made at the time of this writing. Brake warning light came on with no time to react and brakes were engaged without driver intervention.
BATTERY ALWAYS DIE AFTER 2-3 DAYS IF VEHICLE IS NOT USE. THIS IS HAPPENING SINCE DAY ONE OF PURCHASE
All warning lights on dash show up upon starting vehicle. Used to be intermittent, now constant. When lights are on, none of the safety or advanced driving features work--eg cruise control, lane keep assist, anti lock brake, parking brake. It has been taken to the dealership twice for this issue, and dealership has tried various things from replacing battery to updating software with no effect, costing hundreds of dollars and weeks of it being in the shop. From my internet search, this problem seems widespread and I do not feel safe driving without the safety features, ABS, etc.
2017 Honda CR-V. Driving and when arrived to destination went to put car into park and the shifter button was missing. Found it on the floor of the vehicle. The plastic on the button that is inserted had broken. Had trouble getting car into park. Did feel safe to drive. Called dealership they said there was a recall with a range of vin #'s, but my vehicle wasn't in that range. Very bizarre that it happened. Obviously, a defective part and Honda should cover it. Important piece to have just broken like it did.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH with the Adaptive Cruise Control activated, the Collision Mitigation Braking System engaged while there was another vehicle nearby. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred while there were no other vehicles around. The warning message "Caution Brakes" was illuminated. The contact disengaged Adaptive Cruise Control feature and continued driving. Additionally, the contact stated that the touch panel light was becoming dimmer while driving at night. The contact also stated that the vehicle failed to start occasionally. The contact was able to jumpstart the vehicle with assistance. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who diagnosed that the battery needed to be replaced. The contact stated that the battery was replaced; however, the failure reoccurred with the computer system engaging independently, while activating the alarm system simultaneously. The vehicle was taken to a second dealer Norm Reeves Honda Superstore Irvine (16 Auto Center Dr, Irvine, CA 92618) where it was diagnosed that the Body Control Module (BCM) needed to be replaced; however, the parts were not available as it was on a national back order. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 17,000.
I have experienced problems with this since December 2021. All warning lights start flashing with Hill start problem, brake system problem, brake hold problem, adaptive control problem, stability problem, TPMS problem, Road departure mitigation problem. These warning continue to cycle over and over. Once the warnings are cleared, there are no issues for a few weeks to a month, but it returns. This has occurred 5-6 times since December. I replaced the battery three weeks ago and the issue reappeared today, 27 Apr 22. While researching the issue, I discovered many Honda users experiencing the same issue. This is an issue Honda has to address this issue. I am the only owner of my vehicle which only has 39K miles on it.
April 23, 2022 my son was driving my vehicle in the downtown city. He found a place to parallel park and placed the gear shifter in reverse when he was done he went to place the gear shifter in park, but there was no button on the gear shifter to press in and after I freaked out, my son found the plastic piece on the floor. After many tries, he was finally able to put the knob on the gear shifter to place the vehicle in park. My question, why is that particular part made in plastic? The part that actually attaches to the gear shifter should be out of steel and the button part that is actually touched daily can be made out of plastic. Just a suggestion.
In a construction single lane road my car braked extremely hard. My speed was less than 10 mph. The zone had pylons, two flagmen who were stationary and a raised metal plate over a trench. It happened twice, once in each direction. I immediately called Lawley Honda and brought it in after work. Their only guess is that I accidentally turned on the cruise/driver assist button on the lower right side of my steering wheel. They also said it could have happened during my oil change 4 days ago. I have never in the years I’ve owned this car accidentally turned on this control. They did not take my vehicle into the service bay. They said if there is no error code indicator illuminated then they can’t troubleshoot the vehicle.
Driving around 18MPH, I was approaching a small bridge when the brake message appeared simultaneously to the automatic braking of the car. Luckily, I was going slowly, no one in front of or behind me. It was extremely abrupt and frightening. I cannot imagine what might have happened if I had been going faster.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 68 MPH with the cruise control activated, the vehicle inadvertently decelerated and then stopped with an unknown warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that an unstated module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 58,083.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 55 MPH, the brake warning light displayed. The failure occurred without an object nearby the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure and no service was performed. Additionally, while starting the vehicle, the emissions and brake warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that while driving in the rain, the Lane Departure Assist warning light displayed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,000.
I started getting a fuel smell in my car and couldn't figure out where its coming from, upon smelling the engine bay smelled like fuel, pulled the dipstick and it smelled real bad with fuel in it. Dealer says no fix for this at this time just change the oil. I don't feel safe about this.
I was driving down the road going about 45. All of the sudden the orange brake warning came up on my dash, the car beeped, and the brakes engaged themselves and I came to almost a complete stop. There was nothing in front of me. But there were cars behind me. I’m lucky I didn’t get hit from behind or cause and accident.
While driving on a two lane road with no cars ahead and approaching a narrowing bend in the road with an on-coming car in the opposite lane, the vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly gave a beeping warning and applied braking. After slowing the vehicle considerably, the emergency braking ceased and normal driver control resumed. Vehicle following was fortunately not following close enough to avoid rear end collision. This has occurred twice before while pulling into a garage and while passing a parking lot beside road where a car was backing close to roadway without entering roadway. No cars in lane ahead, following, or on-coming.
The shifter button on the gear shift handle just randomly broke and popped off. Will have to replace it.
Brought the vehicle to Honda dealership due to check engine warning. Codes P0172 and P219F appeared. Honda tech performed 19-032 procedure and cleared the warning light. Three weeks later the warning light appeared again.
On April 3 2022 at 7:00am I was driving north on Eastlake in Seattle, WA. I was going 25mph and there were no other cars in front or behind me as well as none on either side of me. My 2017 Honda CRV EXL suddenly braked throwing me against the steering wheel and throwing items in the car to the floor. There was no warning message displayed on information panel. I let off the gas instantly and then was able to continue going. Car is now at Honda of Seattle to diagnose issue.
All warning lights come up on vehicle. Recall needed. This is occurring on most 2017 CRV
I read an article saying you're investigating sudden braking on Honda's that have advanced safety features, I wanted to comment on my experiences as they are moderately dangerous. There are 2 instances where my car will suddenly brake (and flash a warning on the dash) when it's not necessary: 1. Going under a an overpass during the day. The automatic braking system gets confused by shadows. If the cruise is on, the car will brake, though not all the time. Maybe half the time. Almost all the time, I will get a warning to brake, even if there is no one else around. 2. When I have the adaptive cruise control on and I'm on the highway in the right lane, if the car in front of me slows down to exit, 100% of the time my car will brake hard, and if I'm not paying attention to turn off the adaptive cruise, the hard braking and sudden declaration has nearly caused me to be rear ended. It's not safe, I didn't know you were looking into this so I've been ignoring it since I've had the car. Since you're looking into this, it has not caused an accident, but the hard braking is jarring and unexpected, both to me and people behind me. And it's not necessary, because there's no risk of accident, someone is taking a highway offramp. I have not brought this to a dealer to check out because it's happened since the first day I've owned the car. Again, this is repeatable, it happens 100% of the time. Hope this helps and I hope you can get Honda to issue a software update to fix this hard, unexpected braking. Thank you.
I was driving my 2017 Honda CRV on Saturday, March 26th in the evening hours and suddenly the brake system light came on and the system slammed on the brakes without any cars in front of me or anywhere in the vicinity of my car. I did not initiate or touch the brake at all.
Dashboard lights come on while driving, emissions problems, lack of power and engine light flashing . When I start it 2 out 3 times can feel a light vibration and has vibrated while driving.
I was driving on an urban street this morning at approx 20-25 mph, with cars in front and behind be (at least 2 car-lengths away. I had stopped at an intersection and continued on when the light turned green, following a car in front of me at a safe 2-car length distance. My car suddenly had a warning sound, and the instrument panel was blinking. When I looked to read it (flashing "BRAKE") the car had already started its emergency brake. It was approx 6:15am, and dark outside. The only thing that can be seen the might have caused this was a 1 inch metal panel on the road along my path (indeed the car stopped inches in front of it). A similar incident happened about a year ago, with a similar circumstance of a metal plate on a roadway (not the same road as today). Under a similar speed (30-35mph). That said, I have driven over other metal panels almost daily without incident. This incident seems to be similar to other reports on the news in late Feb 2022, which NHTSA is investigating. The car and passengers are safe. It was checked during routine maintenance about one month ago at an authorized Honda Service Center.
In an incident dated March 28, 2022 a Woodbury, MN, driver attempted to shift from “Park” to “Reverse” to back out of the garage into the driveway, only to look down and find the shift button missing. They searched for the button and found it on the console, having fallen off while in “Reverse.” At the very least, this is an inconvenience. At the very worst, this affects the driver’s control over the car, and it may be disastrous in any situation in which they need to shift into or out of “Reverse” or "Park" very quickly.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, the brake warning light illuminated as the brake engaged. The vehicle did not come to a complete stop. Several other unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact stated that he depressed the accelerator pedal and the vehicle failed to exceed 40 MPH. The contact stated that the vehicle was hard to drive up a hill as he drove to his residence. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the failure was diagnosed as a computer error related to the turbo. The contact stated that the computer was reset. The contact stated that the dealer test drove the vehicle 25 miles and the failure was not duplicated. The contact stated that two days after the repair, while driving 65 MPH with the cruise control activated, the brake warning light illuminated as the brake automatically engaged, jerking the driver who almost lost control. The contact was able to drive home. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer where the vehicle was awaiting diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 81,000.
About a year ago, my 2017 CRV braked for no reason. I was traveling about 30 mph and the brake warning light came on and the car braked suddenly. Fortunately, nobody was behind me. I took the car to my Honda dealer and they looked at the sensors but couldn't find anything. I do worry that this could happen again.
I cannot check off enough of the listings of problems with this car. I believe that they are all connected to one central computer malfunction in the vehicle ADAS system. This car was purchased new I first reported it to Honda we had 500 miles on the car. made periodic completes since with the only answer provided was nothing wrong however they did perform a radio update wow. So the problem is I have every warning light going off in the car from lane departure, hill assist start, front end collision, Brakes, airbags, Engine, cruise control, stability along with others. afraid to drive the car for i am not sure what the computer is going to do next accelerate or sudden stop. I can provide vehicle for inspection the symptoms are sporadic
On two different occasions, the automatic braking system engaged in an unprovoked circumstance. There was no accident that occurred, however, if a car had been following closely behind--we would have been rear ended. It also does create a stress/adrenaline rush and whips your head/neck due to the sudden nature of overly aggressive braking. In both instances, I was driving approximate 30 mph. There were no cars or obstacles in front of us that would have required the car to stop. In either instance, there was nothing that should have triggered the braking system. The car is available for inspection. I have not had it inspected. The first time it happened just seemed random. Within days of the 2nd incident, I learned of the investigation into the system. There are no warnings that come up or system alerts that anything is off. It is just the equivalent of slamming on the brakes, but your foot is on the gas. And then it recovers and returns to driving normally.
The contact's mother owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while the vehicle was parked in the garage, there was a strong fuel and oil odor coming from the vehicle. Upon opening the hood to inspect the vehicle, it was discovered that the engine oil also had a fuel odor. Additionally, the contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle failed to accelerate properly while depressing the accelerator pedal. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer who diagnosed that the computer software needed to be updated to correct the failure. The contact stated that the software update was completed. No further information was available. The vehicle was taken back to the contact's residence; however, the vehicle later failed to start. The cause of the failure was not yet determined. The contact also stated that the battery had previously failed on several occasions and was replaced. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 2,000. The VIN was not available.
In multiple incidents, the car's automatic emergency braking system engaged while driving on clear roads with no obstructions in front or to the sides of the vehicle. The vehicle has not yet been damaged and is available for inspection. There was no warning from the car before it engaged the brakes. The car slammed the breaks and I lost control of the vehicle and could not prevent it from applying the brakes. This has happened both on city streets and on divided highways. It seems to be most likely to occur in areas where there is a slight bump in the road or some uneven road surfaces that are perfectly safe to drive over if not perfectly flat. My safety and the safety of other drivers around me was put at immediate risk due to the sudden and completely unpredictable nature of this. I was nearly rear-ended in one incident. This has occurred at road speeds over 40-50 miles per hour, making any sudden necessary braking extremely dangerous. The problem has not been reproduced by a service center, but I have encountered it multiple times over the lifetime of the vehicle. Recent service appointments at a dealership showed no issues on inspection. There are absolutely no warning lamps or messages that appear before the braking occurs. Normally, the emergency braking system flashes a warning and audible signal before engaging brakes. However, this does not happen with these incidents and the braking engages immediately without prior warning along with the emergency braking visual and audio alerts. The issue first appeared about 1 year after purchase of the new vehicle from a dealership and has occurred once every year or two since.
I have 24557 miles on my honda 2017 the a/c does not work
During a recent vacation my husband and I were on 95N just outside Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. My husband attempted to change lanes into the passing lane. As he depressed the gas pedal and turned into the lane, our Honda stalled and would not respond to any demand for acceleration. By the time we realized what was happening we'd gone from 65 miles per hour to about 30 miles per hour in a heavy flow of traffic, with oncoming traffic decelerating quickly and coming dangerously close upon the rear of our vehicle. There happened to be repairs to the left of our lane, with associated traffic cones so no cars were in that lane, and we were able to drift into that lane and restart our car. This happened once before on a very slow travel lane in my neighborhood and I didn't connect that the car had stalled. In retrospect this is the second occurrence. While I will certainly be taking the car for service at the Honda dealer, I also researched and found out that Honda is aware of this issue and does not deem it a safety issue, thus not using any sort of safety recall. My experience was harrowing, and certainly could have resulted in our own impact and indeed a larger impact on 95N after our stall. This was no joke and luckily my husband did not panic and we were able to respond and drift to safety. If that lane to our left had not been closed, no way could we have made it to the right side of the highway to the "slow" side of the road.
Driving at 45mph, the emergency collision detection warning sounded and the brakes were applied. No cars or pedestrians were located in front of the vehicle. This occurred going thru an intersection at 1:30am and luckily there was no traffic present.
I was driving about 35 mph on a city street at 6:45 a.m. There was almost no other traffic — no cars ahead of or behind me. The weather was clear, temperature in the low 30s. I was approaching a red light and coasted toward the intersection, then lightly applied the brakes. The emergency braking system kicked in without warning, and I came to an immediate stop well short of the intersection. The vehicle has 22,400 miles on it. This has never happened before.
I was turning left onto another road at the same low speed as I have made this same turn at the same location many times before. The weather was dry and sunny. During the turn the brakes grabbed hold for no apparent reason. There were no other cars in front of me nor behind me. I have made this same turn subsequent to this event with no problem. The braking released on its own within 2-3 seconds. This car had about 70,000 miles on it when this occurred. If a car had been behind me, it is very likely I would have been rear ended.
On Thursday, February 17, 2022, I drove home from work in Waycross, Georgia. I was driving my properly-maintained 2017 Honda CRV. I was wearing my seat belt, and the shoulder harness was properly secured across my chest. The day was clear, and at 4:03 p.m., I approached the intersection of Jenkins St, Tebeau St, Plant Ave, and Francis St. This intersection is in the downtown area; it is treated like a perpendicular intersection, although, as you can see from the attached photo, it is not, in fact, perpendicular. There are stop signs on Jenkins and Tebeau; travelers on Plant and Francis do not have to stop. Because of how Francis Street curves onto Plant, and because of the fact that Francis emerges from under an overpass, visibility is poor. I was on Francis St, which becomes Plant Ave headed east. A construction worker driving a 2016 Chevy Silverado K350 TK was fully stopped at the stop sign at the Jenkins St intersection. After stopping, he pulled into the intersection, T-boning my CRV and sending it into a series of spins. My head violently hit the window several times as the vehicle spun. When the CRV finally stopped, my first thought was, "Where are The airbags?" Side curtain airbags had deployed on the passenger side of the vehicle, but no airbags had deployed on the driver's side anywhere--or from the steering wheel. An ambulance took me to the local emergency room. I have a concussion. Had the airbags deployed as expected, that might not be the case. My safety was put at risk by the airbags' failure to deploy--basic physics requires that in a violent collision, the driver is protected after being propelled into the door and window. The CRV is in a Copart lot. I have requested that it be kept available for inspection. The CRV was deemed totaled; I do not know if anyone inspected the airbags. There were no prior warnings. During the instrument panel went berserk. Multiple error messages flashed simultaneously, despite the front end not being hit.
I was driving north on I-75 at about 70 mph. The car suddenly braked for a brief moment. It was sudden but only for a brief second. It felt like a lurch maybe? I'm not sure what it was. First time I've ever experienced anything like it but it was a little frightening. I've got 50K miles on it. 2017 Honda CRV. Right before that happened the "Auto High-beam Problem" message came up on the dash, although it was daylight and my headlights were in the off position. Should I keep driving it?
Car battery drains after sitting for a few days. Had this issue and replaced the battery. The battery is only 2 months old and after leaving the car parked for 3 days the battery died again and needed to be jumped. It looks as if this is an outstanding issue with several complaints found online for this model and battery drain from electronics.
Many times I will be driving in a highway with NO cars around, and the vehicle breaks and gives me a notification that is activated the emergency breaking system. It is very scary and can cause a serious accident and injury if not resolved.
Driving home one night in the dark and the weather was misty/foggy. Our vehicle went over one of those large metal plates that construction workers use when they're working on the road. All of a sudden the braking system activated on it's own and it brought us to a complete stop. It was scary because there was no traffic threat to us and I didn't apply the brakes. Luckily there was no vehicle behind me because they would have rear ended us for sure. After this incident I am always mindful to turn off the automatic braking whenever I start the vehicle
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at highway speeds, the Forward Collision-Avoidance system activated and the brakes were applied. The vehicle then returned to normal operation. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated when the vehicle was started. The contact stated that the brake would malfunction intermittently. The local dealer was contacted however, the vehicle had not been repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.
Automatic emergency braking system puts on the brakes and there would be nothing in front of me. Making my car slow down, I am afraid of getting hit from behind. The light flashed on dash. I took it to dealership they said I needed a new battery.
My car’s automatic emergency brake has engaged ~4x when there was undoubtedly nothing in front of me on the road. Luckily it has never engaged the brake long enough to cause a rear end collision which is way I didn’t report it earlier. I know you’re collecting reports for affected cars and mine indeed has done this before. I’m hopeful it won’t happen when more cars are around.
While driving at 35 mph on street with no cars in sight, car went into "panic stop". Speed dropped to about 5 mph then resumed normal driveability. Only happened that one time. Stop was so severe that a following car would have crashed into me.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while driving at 20 MPH downhill and approaching a railroad track with arms, the automatic braking system inadvertently engaged and abruptly stopped the vehicle almost causing a rear-end collision. The Forward Collision-Avoidance: Emergency Automatic Braking warning light was illuminated. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred while driving and approaching a metallic fence located on the passenger’s side of the vehicle. The failure also occurred on another occasion while approaching a railroad crossing. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed however, no issues were found. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 3,000.
The dashboard and radio screen start to glitch, causing my steering wheel to lock up and making it complicated to turn. This hazard makes me feel unsafe for myself and others.
Two times in the last four years, Honda CRV braked for no apparent reason. Speed was around 35 mph. Heard NHSTA was studying this.
I was driving west on S Holgate, crossing the railroad tracks between 4th and 2nd, when the collision avoidance system began to sound even though nothing was in front of me. The car CAS then initiated an emergency stop on the tracks. Just then the train crossing started flashing red so a car following me decided to scoot through. He was not expecting me to stop so suddenly and rear-ended my car leaving both of us stopped on the tracks with a train coming! We were both able to restart the cars and moved off the tracks in time but it was quite scary and obviously dangerous. Thankfully the collision was at 20 mph so the damage did not disable either car or cause any injuries that would inhibit us from moving to safety.
On multiple occasions, driving on a 5 lane road (2 lanes south, middle turn lane, 2 lanes north) at 45 mph in the right lane headed south, the auto brake system displayed "BRAKE" and auto brakes were applied to slightly slow the CRV. I did not apply the brake. There was nothing in front of me - clear road, no cars in front or behind me (thankfully), no debris, no people. I have not had Honda look at this and reported here due to it making national news regarding the potential issue.
Last October I was driving home on a quiet 2 lane road with no apparent traffic at approximately 30th when out of nowhere the automatic safety BRAKE warning came on and my car stopped dead on the road. There were no other vehicles or animals visible in the area. I then traveled home without further incident.
While driving at 45 miles per hour on a divided highway, the automatic braking system engaged. There were no cars anywhere around me at the time. This is the second time this has happened.
All warning lights flashing, brake, engine, hill assist, ACC, traction control, TPS, etc.
There have been two incidences in the last couple of months (Fall of 2021). Last one was 11/29/2021, while I am driving on surface street that the emergency brakes engaged without warning and jerked me to a stop. There were not cars directly in front of me that would have warranted a quick brake. Luckily there were no cars following closely behind me that would have hit my car since I suddenly stopped for no reason. Which would have resulted in an accident occurring. I’m not sure why the emergency brakes activated with no warning and for no apparent reason. The emergency brakes have not been inspected by manufacturer.
On at least 2 different occasions, the brakes my 2017 Honda CRV suddenly engaged without me touching the brake pedal. Once was on I-75 when there was no traffic in front of me and no traffic on the sides. It just braked momentarily with the brake warning light on the dash appearing. It almost immediately returned to proper operation. Another time I was driving in city traffic while crossing an intersection and the brakes suddenly engaged. Again, it was a momentary situation and my foot was not on the brake pedal. I have also had repeated problems with my main display-sometimes the screen goes black and I am unable to turn radio off or change stations. Other times, the a/c or heater and defrost will not operate and then after driving for 15-30 mins it suddenly turns on and I have heat or ac and the screen returns to normal operation. The dealer has been unable to fix.
Brakes: January 2018 the brake warning light flashed and there was an audible telling me to brake when there was nothing in front of me. Brakes: April 2019 the brake warning light flashed on dash and the car started braking when there was nothing in front of me. Brakes: I stepped on the brake pedal and the radio volume changed. Adaptive Cruise: May 2019 While traveling with the cruise on, it stopped showing there was a vehicle in front of me, it did not slow my car down as I approached the vehicle in front of me.
On occasion, while using the Adaptive Cruise Control, the system will suddenly begin to brake or slow down without any obstruction being present. My sense of this over the past five years is that the system perceives a 'shadow,' typically from an overpass or a truck in the next lane, as an obstruction in front of my car. The braking is short-lived event and has not caused my car to come to a complete stop or caused an accident. I am reporting this now, due to the news stories about this issue with the CR V.
The car frequently gives a “brake now” warning without anything being in front of the car. On occasion, it will automatically engage the brakes as well.
While traveling in the center lane at 65 mph, all systems displayed warning messages, one after another with beeps then total loss of power. No power assisted steering or braking. No emergency flashers. Nothing! The entire dashboard went black. The car sputtered and died - slowly slowing down as I navigated to the edge off the road. Luckily there was an emergency access road I was able to safely stop. It was an extremely frightening experience and I have no confidence in the safety of this vehicle. After the incident, I did some research and found this is not an isolated incident. This car put me in a life or death situation with previously reported safety issues. If I had not taken the appropriate emergency actions to get the vehicle off the road safely, it would have ended very differently. Car is at the Honda dealer being diagnosed.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact was driving at 65 mph, the accelerator pedal was depressed and the vehicle accelerated and decelerated on its own. Unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact was able to drive to the destination safely. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 65,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while starting the vehicle, the emissions system warning message was displayed and the check engine warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and diagnosed with emission system failure. The contact was informed that the emissions system needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that the vehicle was out of warranty. The failure mileage was approximately 9,800.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the brakes independently engaged without another vehicle nearby. The contact disengaged the braking sensor and continue driving to the residence. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 40 MPH, the brake warning light illuminated and the brake engaged independently and the vehicle decelerated. The contact stated that there was no vehicle nearby during the failure. The contact was able to continue to drive to her residence. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,750.
Vehicle occasionally brakes without warning, with no vehicle ahead. Has happened dozens of times over the last 5 years.
Phantom breaking occured roughly 2 MONTHS after purchasing the vehicle (new) in the middle of the freeway. The forward collision for some reason had a false negative, and the brakes seized up. I was able to safely pull over, but after restarting the vehicle, the car would not move. The brakes were still seized from the safety system, and would not allow the vehicle to move forward. After about an hour, and constant tries, for some reason - the brakes released and we were able to drive the vehicle again. We went straight to the dealership, to inspect. They had the car for a couple days, the mechanic also took the car home on his commute (~100 miles roundtrip), but was not able to recreate. There was no charge for the vehicle as it was still under warranty.
Five times by vehicle used the braking system to stop my car while driving. It was late at night when the braking happened. I just thought the car saw something on road which caused this to happened. Each time it was a very hard stop.
While driving 35 mph down a busy 3 lane road, I approached a steel plate in the road. When I was less than 3 feet from that plate, my car's auto braking system suddenly engaged hard, forcing my car to slam on the brakes. The car behind me thankfully was far enough away they could brake without hitting me, but if they were a foot closer, they would have rearended me. This is not the first time this system has auto braked at an incorrect time, but it is the closest I have come to an accident because of it.
Randomly, on at least three occasions our car activated the brake system and gave us a 'brake' warning on the dash when no obstacle or vehicle was in front of our car. I read of this problem being reported in the media and thought it was important to record our experience with nhtsa.
On at least two occasions, I have been driving at Interstate speeds in the Peoria IL and Danville IL metro regions, and the car has braked hard, with the warning of a forward collision imminent. In one instance I was driving west on I-74 at the east most end of the Murray Baker Bridge when the car break was applied automatically, reducing my speed by about 20 miles per hour while there was traffic behind me. No injuries. At the time I assumed it was the angle of the car going up the hill onto the bridge, and that the car detected the bridge structure above. In the other incident, I was driving in Danville IL with no traffic anywhere near me, and the car beeped, alerted that the forward collision was imminent, and the breaks were applied hard. It possibly reduced my speed 10 MPH or so, but was hard enough for my body to move forward. No cars around, no obstacles around. I had no idea what the vehicle detected. It was not raining or snowing, or anything like that at the time of either incident.
I have experienced automatic emergency braking of my vehicle at various times for no reason ~ I was not approaching another car or in congested traffic. Fortunately, in every instance, there has not been another vehicle immediately behind me. I have communicated this problem verbally to the Honda dealer and was advised all systems appear to be functioning correctly. The most severe instance was when I was going over a metal plate placed over the roadway during street repair. At other times, it will happen when approaching one particular intersection in my city. In any event, something in the automatic braking system is flawed. Good idea but there are dangerous "bugs" that need to be worked out.
My 2017 C R V Honda has twice experienced sudden and unexpected braking. The first time it braked very hard and displayed warning lights at the same time. The car was clean and no obstructions were present. My speed was approximately 40 mph. There was no traffic in front or behind me. The second time there was no traffic and the car didn’t brake as hard. There was a warning light at the same time as the braking occurred. Lately I’ve also had problems with the ADAS system. Several times it has disabled itself and displayed multiple warning messages. I’ve brought these problems to the Honda dealership attention with no satisfaction and only getting generic answers.
On five separate occasions, my Honda CR-V, the collision mitigation braking system (CMGS) slammed on the brakes and stopped the car when I was approaching a flat plate on the road. I had no vehicle even close in front of my car. The BRAKE light flashes everytime this happens. On four of those occasions, I have narrowly averted being hit from behind. Thank goodness, I had slowed down to under 25 MPH, but everything in the car went flying. My safety, the safety of my dog who was tethered in the back seat, the safety of my grandchildren in the back seat and the safety of the car behind me in traffic was at risk. I have found that this system can be turned off, but this has to be done everytime the car is started. I can see other reports of this problem on the Internet. My next step is to take it to the dealer.
I was driving and the car in front of me braked. My car suddenly slammed on the brakes and stopped. It was very scary, as it was completely unnecessary and I was not in danger of hitting the car in front of me. It almost caused an accident with the car before me that had to suddenly stop.
Automatic system brakes even when no car or object is in front. Brakes for no reason Also the display screen goes berserk and goes completely black and car has to be restarted for screen to work
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that the ABS was causing her to brake intermittently. The contact stated that the failure occurred approximately 3 times since purchasing the vehicle in 2017. The contact stated that the most recent time the failure occurred, it almost caused a vehicle to crash. The contact stated that she contacted the dealer who advised her that there were no recalls on her model vehicle that were known to have the failure she was experiencing. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 20,000.
The contact owned a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed and turning left, the driver was no longer able to accelerate due to the Anti-lock braking system automatically activating and another vehicle crashed into the front passenger side. The air bags did deploy. No one was injured. No medical treatment was needed at the scene. A police report was filed. The vehicle was towed to a towed yard where it was later deemed a total loss. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The VIN was not available. The failure mileage was approximately 20,000.
While I have been driving the automatic braking system will engage bringing the car to a stop. This has happened on several occasions while I have driving on the toll road at 65 miles/hr and on residential streets. Each time the car dramatically slows and the orange brake like flashes. These incidents have occurred with no cars surrounding my car, it just occurs out of the blue. I'm reporting because this occurred this past weekend and it brought my car to a dead stop slamming me and my passenger, our seat belts stop us from hitting the steering wheel or glove box. I thought there would be a recall to correct, but I have not seen any notices from the federal government on this matter. I thought I better report. Note: the last incident happen 2/19/22 while driving on residential street.
Emergency braking system erroneously activated causing car to suddenly brake; no direct consequence at time however could easily cause accident; has not been investigated by any entity; no warnings prior to incident
I get bunch of error messages on my dashboard display stating there are multiple system failure, like Break System Problem, Forward Collision system Problem, Lane Keeping Assistance Problem, Adaptive Cruise Control system Problem, Electric Parking Break Problem, Tire pressure Monitor Problem, Emission System Problem etc. Because of this if I have adaptive cruise control activated, suddenly I start getting these errors and cruise control stops working, my break hold system failed, I was standing of traffic signal with break hold applied and suddenly I started getting these errors, I had to push break manually to keep it stop, otherwise it would have started moving because break hold system was failed. I have researched on it and a lot of more Honda CRV 2017 customers getting these errors and there is no solution provided by Honda. This issue can be dangerous when we rely on these security feature while driving on highway and suddenly this system failure message appears, all security system stops working.
The passenger window spontaneously exploded and window shattered
While in adaptive cruse control and traveling at highway speeds of 70 mph, I attempted to pass a slower moving semi tractor and trailer. Just as I was about to complete the pass, with traffic building up behind me, the system went to automatic braking, as if there were traffic in front of me. There was absolutely no traffic in front of me for at least a mile. This occurred on a bright sunny day on a straight stretch of road. I was able to apply excessive pressure to the gas pedal and slowly able to get the car up to highway speed again without getting rear ended. This has happened on three occasions, always with passing a tractor trailer. I have taken it to the dealer and they say they can find no problem. In addition, more times than I can count, I have had the car alert me and apply the breaks when there are no cars in front of me or beside me during normal driving (no cruse control). Lastly, almost without fail, if I am traveling at highway speeds using adaptive cruse control and the car in front of me takes an exit, my car will almost always break, even though the car that was in front of me is now clearly off on the exit. These sudden slowdowns when the traffic behind me is expecting me to maintain speed or speed up is a real hazard for getting rear ended or having someone get hostile towards me with their driving. Again, the dealer has been notified many times and indicates that they can find no problem. I have now turned off ALL the automatic driving features to avoid these issues, but the second issue still remains and I am out over $3,000 for a group of electronic components in my car that I can not use due to safety issues. Issue started with the car when brand new and continues to this day.
This vehicle equipped with a 1.5 L Turbo has fuel diluting the oil and causing stalling on occasion and acrid smells inside the vehicle. I changed my oil at 70% reaming life, but only 3,000 miles driven because the oil dip stick was 1/2 inch above above the full mark. The performance has downgraded and diluted oil can possibly cause a catastrophic engine failure while in operation. This has been going on since I have purchased the vehicle, but not to this extent. Honda has not recalled the vehicle, claiming it is not safety related, yet apprx 350,000 models were recalled in China for basically the same problem. I now will have oil samples tested from this time on to further verify my claim
Vehicle was not running, and electrical components went haywire. Panic horn wouldn’t stop sounding, dashboard came on, all warning lights on. Brought vehicle to dealership and upon diagnosis, the BCM is faulty (body control module). In researching this, I found Honda had over 800,000 vehicle recalls for this particular issue, but my vehicle model was not part of this recall. I believe that it should. Case #12807731 was opened by me with Honda customer service for the issue. Currently, the part is backordered and not available until mid March. They informed me that I have to disconnect the battery when not in use and reconnect when I need to drive somewhere. My vehicle is just under 5 years old.
I was driving and suddenly, for no apparent reason, all of the hazard and warning lights started flashing. I received all of the following errors on the dash: "Emissions System Problem" "Brake System Problem" "Brake Hold System Problem" "Power Steering System (EPS) Problem" "Vehicle Stability Assist (VSA) Problem" "Hill Start Assist Problem" "Adaptive Cruise Control Problem" "Collision Mitigation System Problem" "Road Departure Mitigation System Problem" "Keyless Remote Not Detected" "Electric Parking Brake Problem" "Tire Pressure Monitor Problem" I was then informed by the dealership that there was a software update that would solve the problem. After completing the software update, the error lights and flashing started again a couple weeks later. After taking the vehicle back to the dealership for further testing, it was advised that new fuel injectors are needed. I was appalled by this and took the vehicle to an independent auto repair shop and after more testing was advised again of needing new fuel injectors. This ultimately cost me $1500 and can't fathom needing new fuel injectors at 50,000 miles.
My 2017 Honda CR-V Gear Shifter Button popped out and fell apart. Luckily my car was not in motion on a busy freeway when this occurred otherwise it would have been very dangerous for my life and could have caused an accident. I see lots of reports of broken 2017 Honda CR-V Shifter Button on the internet so this is a well known problem that Honda must be made to fix for the poor quality product part that they have installed in their 2017 Honda CR-V car. Honda https://owners.honda.com/service-maintenance/recalls site does not show any recall/repair for my car's VIN which is surprising. Reference: https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10160912-0001.pdf
System Failure: Fuel Emissions System Problem and all other warning lights are on. Safety: Cruise control does not function and automatic breaking does not function. Dealership: Yes, the problem was reproduced even after the spark plugs and rocket arm assembly were replaced inside the limits of the 6 year unlimited mileage warranty. The dealership acknowledged that 5 or 6 other customers were in with similar complaints this month. Others: an independent garage inspected the vehicle and confirmed that a warranty should cover this problem some 8 months ago. Indications are a weak cylinder may be the root cause of the fuel emissions system problem in addition to the fuel injectors and pipes. Warning lamps, messages and other symptoms were present prior to the failure and appeared well before the manufacturer's warranty expired. The dealership we purchased the vehicle from failed to locate the problem and did not repair when we first discovered the problem and brought the vehicle in for repair in 11/2020. We recently contacted Honda Corporation directly and they gave us a case number for reference while they review this complaint.
Wire harnesses failed on both the driver and passenger side rear doors. These wire harnesses control the lock/unlock, window, and speaker functions of each door. The failure was premature cracking/breaking of the electrical wires controlling the aforementioned functions. There are two safety risks. One is the fact that the rear doors will not lock when either a) the vehicle accelerates and all doors automatically lock or b) the driver goes to lock the doors by engaging the lock function on the driver side front door panel. Related, the rear doors will not unlock when either a) the vehicle is set to Park or b) the driver goes to unlock the doors by engaging the unlock function on the driver side front door panel. In an emergency or other time sensitive situation, this would prevent timely egress from the vehicle (especially with children in the rear seats). The second safety risk is that the up/down functionality of the windows which would prevent either a) timely egress in an emergency or other time sensitive situation or b) temperature control via natural air flow. The components have been inspected by my mechanic and will be replaced with OEM parts at a somewhat significant cost including parts and labor. It has not been inspected by any other party. The symptoms first appeared about three months ago. Symptoms include a) doors not unlocking when vehicle is set to Park and b) windows not engaging (i.e. going up/down).
Bought new 2017 Honda CRV in 2017. Battery drain left me stranded at long term airport parking after 3 days of parking. I got it fixed at a Honda dealer with a TSB. Now battery dies and needs to be replaced about every 2 years. I've had to replace the battery 3 times already. This is unacceptable. Honda knows the battery size is insufficient.
Merging onto highway and car completely stalled. I almost got rear-ended by tractor trailer behind me. All warning lights went on. I shut down and restarted the engine and car will not go above 55mph. Dealer says one of my fuel injectors is bad so they all need replacing. This a huge hazard to anyone driving this vehicle due to faulty fuel injectors as many other owners have complained about which can lead to sudden stalling and vehicle collision.
While driving my 2017 Honda CR-V I was shifting from park to drive & the button on the shift knob broke off & I couldn’t put it back in park. This is a serious safety issue with many complaints. Very disappointed there is not a recall on this issue yet.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated that while parked at his residence, he went to change gears in his vehicle, and the gear shift was unable to shift. The contact stated that the piece that is attached to the gear shift had suddenly broken off The contact stated that he had to manually pair the broken peace to the gear shift in order to change gears. The contact stated that he contacted the dealer and he was advised that there were no recalls on his vehicle ,however there has been several complaints about the same failure on other vehicles, same year, make, and model. The contact stated he has not contacted the manufacture at this time. The contact stated he will be getting his vehicle repaired ,however he is concerned that he could experience the failure while driving the vehicle. The mileage failure was 40,000.
All my safety features lights turned on and they stopped working , I took it to the dealer and they told me it was the fuel injectors the suv is a 2017 80,000 miles on it , they told me my car isn’t covered under warranty my car is mixing the oil and gasoline and it’s driving rough
ALL DASH WARNING LIGHTS COME ON
Fuel Injector failure Car appears to be on the verge of stalling. If this happens during driving, could cause an accident. Yes, dealer confirmed fuel injector failure Not been inspected by manufacturer Yes, for last several weeks car seems to hesitate once started or have trouble starting and also the entire car shakes for several seconds before settling down.
MY REAR PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT OPEN FROM OUTSIDE OR INSIDE. THIS POSES A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!!! ALSO THE TAILGATE ONLY OPENS ON OCCASION!
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the brakes independently engaged. The braking assist warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where the software was updated, uninstalled, and reinstalled. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to the dealer for additional diagnostic testing. The failure mileage was approximately 10,000.
The shift button broke off the handle to control drive train and car was in drive. Could not turn engine off or shift to park.
All of the ADAS Warnings go off on the dash-every one. It turns on and off randomly and lasts from hours to weeks and I’m not sure what the cause is. The dealership has told a few things but the main one was over the phone saying it could be due to obstruction of the sensors-snow/ice or something of that nature but it happens even when it’s clear all the time. Recently, when the sensor system has been “working” on the highway, the brake system activated itself slowing my car down and a warning came up on my dash that said to Brake but there was nothing on the sides or in front of my car, only behind me! And it happened without warning. It’s been persistent despite weather conditions. This has happened numerous times, I’d say at least 100.
when starting the car, the display panel behind the steering wheel that displays the speed/tachometer, speed control info, general status etc was dark (blank) It came back on after about 10 mins on the road but then after turning the car off, then on it several times that day would not come back on. It happened to my wife on 21 and 22 November but after restarting the car the screen came back for her. I have not taken to dealer. that is scheduled for Tuesday next week
Recently my 2017 Honda CRV started flashing these 3 warning 1. Road Departure Mitigation System Problem 2. Adaptive Cruise Control Problem 3. Collision Mitigation System Problem. But once in quarter these warnings flash but after engine power off/On warning message goes away. Last week when I was driving on the Interstate Highway, All of sudden this warning flashed, after a while I stopped at a service station. Off/ On the engine but all of the 3 warnings didn't go off. From a safety point of view Cruise/Collision Mitigation/Collision Mitigation Control is very important on Highway. At-least these features prevent and keep you alert while changing lanes, apply proper braking system on the highway from safety measure. The vehicle has not been driven more than 42k miles in the last 4 years. Although the 3 year 36 miles standard warranty is already passed. Today when I went to the service center after diagnosticians they mentioned that the Cruise control sensor has failed due to these issues. Due to pandemic the supply chain is impacted and part is not available. So I ordered the part to the service center. The BRAKE SYSTEM light is also on. Similar issue occurred sometime in 2018 after purchase of the new car in 2017. Initially I informed this issue to the service center. Case no was open with Honda - Case # 06624477. But the issue was not able to be replicated, the service center people told me that the software is updated and that it is not going to flash again. Looks like these new generation cars start creating problems once it completes its life cycle of 3 years and 36k miles warranty period. At least going for a new car was for peace of mind, but looks like this went the other way for me. Last 6 month back I had to get repaired the complete Air conditioner unit, service center people mentioned that AC hose pipe has leakage.
honda crv 2017 touring vehicle with 1.5 engine. On several occasions he has lost the acceleration force, he feels flooded, I had to stop at the side of the road, turn off the vehicle and turn it on again to be able to go to a safer place, I have already visited 2 authorized Honda drivers and my mechanic personal ! I have bought original parts and nothing to stop the problem. I have spent thousands of dollars changing the injectors, pipe set, manifold, throttle body, spark plugs ect. for two times now and this is my 3rd time and still the problem continues. I have been afraid to drive the vehicle because I am risking my life by not knowing when it might happen again, I do not drive with my children in fear, I have had to stop working because of everything that happens. I'm even thinking about changing my vehicle and never buying a Honda again
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 70 MPH, the warning message "Brake" illuminated, and the vehicle inadvertently engaged the vehicle decelerated. The contact stated that she released and then depressed the accelerator pedal and continued to drive the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed by an independent mechanic or the dealer. The contact stated that the failure reoccurred while driving. The contact stated that the vehicle engaged the brake pedal independently and completely stopped the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who informed the contact that the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure because the OBD reader could not read any codes. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and advised the contact to follow up with the dealer for diagnosis. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 10,000.
While driving on the highway at 50 miles per hour, the tailgate opened by itself. The tailgate has opened by itself on five separate occasions, but three of them while the car was parked. Two of them while the car was moving. The first one at 15 mph and this second one at 50 mph.
The adaptive cruise control was set on the highway. When an attempt was made to increase speed to pass a vehicle, the engine started chugging, the check engine light came on and the vehicle lost power. After, I was able to pull to the side of the highway, I turned the vehicle off. Restarted the vehicle and check engine light was no longer on and was able to proceed as normal.
I was driving on a city street with no vehicles in front of me or behind me. There was a patch of road that had a metal plate from construction (there was no active construction). Out of the blue and for no reason, the Automatic Brake light flashed and my CRV slammed on the brakes. If there had been a car behind me it would have hit me... if I had been on the highway and went over a plate it could have been tragic. Everything on my front passenger seat ended up on the floor. The CRV (which I own) is my daughter's car. I called Honda as soon as I got to my office to see if there was a recall and there was none. I am presently looking into how t turn this feature off.
While I was driving on the highway with cruise control on, the car kept slowing down because of shadow from car in the other lane.
44,000 miles all warning lights come on. Dealer says, need new injectors and a pipe. to my knowledge injectors were redesigned. still coming on but car runs smoot. and very good gas mileage.
I noticed the car lights flicker when the car was parked and when I would reverse the car into a parking spot the infotainment system would just shut off abruptly and the lights would extremely dim. I took it to a local mechanic to have it inspected. He suggested changing the battery and alternator. After changing the alternator and battery the car was unable to start 2 months later. It required a jump and needed was taken to the dealership. The dealership said it was a software issue and uprgraded/reprogrammed the vehicle. After the upgrade the car was still having drain issues the next day. This time the lights were flickering while driving and felt like it was sputtering at 72mph. The car is not safe to drive due to possibility of shutting down at any moment and the constant drain on the battery. Honda will not address the issue but will only suggest unneeded costly repairs (chaning the alternator). There is currently a class action lawsuit against HONDA regarding a parasitic drain on the battery. THIS VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!!!
After the car is turned completely off, the dash lights up with all warning lights on and won't shut down, which then drains the battery. This has happened 3 times and we've gone through 2 batteries. The 3rd time it happened, we were able to get it to the dealership before it drained the battery completely. The dealership was able to confirm that it's the Body Control Module that is causing the electrical shortage which completely drains the battery. Part is on back order and car is unsafe to drive at this time because of the electrical shortage in the BCM.
Corroded battery cables causing battery failure and electrical malfunctions. If left unchecked may have led to a fire
While driving through a construction zone at approximately 30mph my Automatic Emergency Braking system suddenly engaged and brought me to a complete stop. It seemed to be sensing a metal plate that was placed on the road in the construction zone to cover a hole. There were cars directly behind me and this very nearly caused a collision. Luckily the driver behind me was alert and reacted quickly enough. This is now the second time this has happened to me, both times with a metal plate on the road covering a hole. Very serious safety issue.
All the warning lights come on while driving. I have to disconnect the battery to reset it. I get the brake warning signal when no other vehicles are around. At times my vehicle will slow down with no other vehicles close to me. This issue could cause an accident if someone is around. I had to turn the walk away feature off due to the alarm continuously sounding. My vehicle was inspected by a dealer for the issue with the alarm sounding. They weren’t able to give a definite cause and suggested I turn the walk away feature off. The other issues have been occurring since February of 2020 and have not been inspected. My vehicle is available for inspection. All of these issues occur at different times. The warning lights started coming back on October 15, 2021.
The electrical wiring malfunctioned and all the warning notifications are sounding on the dashboard. Tire Monitoring System, Brake System, Brake Hold System, Vehicle Stability Problem, Hillside Assist Problem, Road Departure Migration System, etc... Also, the Emergency Brake engages every time the car turns off. We cannot disable this feature. We have to take the emergency brake off every time we turn the car on. When this happens, the only way to terminate the warning notifications is to disconnect the battery and wait 15-20 minutes. We are concerned the emergency brake could malfunction and engage when the car is driving.
Car shut off and there was no power. Battery was dead and I had to get a jump from a family member. This is the 6th or 7th time my battery has died. I've had it replaced 4 times and going for a 5th this weekend. I've had my car jumped multiple times by my father and i lost count really. There a well known parasitic draw issue which drains the battery, which causes component failure. This car is unsafe to drive.
Every warning light on the dashboard lit up. Car would only go 10 miles/hour. Read on the internet this is a problem with this 2017 1.5 Turbo engine.
For some unknown reason all the warning lights will come on in the instrument cluster. This includes all the safety features of the vehicle. When the lights are on none of the safety features work. This includes the emergency braking, lane keep assist, and the cruise control just to name a few. I have reached out to the Honda Corp. with no luck on getting the issue fixed.
Problem 1: My car has 30,000 miles but her Honda since it is past the 36 months it is no longer under warranty. Problem 2: I feel this is a safety issue due to the nature of the failure and the consequences of an immediately failure rendering the car undriveable. This is how the problem unfolded. I started the car. Immediately "System failures" started scrolling across the dash system including Power Brake Failure. I called Honda service, explained what was happening, and Per the Honda service representative, I was told I could drive the car in. I explained the car would not come out of park thus I could not drive it. I was then told how to manually get the car out of park to drive it in for evaluation. I put it in reverse to get out of the garage and when I tried to stop the car I and had no brakes or steering. I got the car to stop by standing with both feet and all my weight on the brake peddle. I Had towed on a flat bed tow truck into Ed Napleton Honda. I was told by Honda that they have never seen this system failure without "a rodent being involved" as they chew threw the housing and then chew on the wires causing the electrical problem. After about 36 hours I was called and told that they had to replace the Brake Power Booster sensor, "no evidence of rodent involvement" and no explanation of why the part failed. I was informed that before further evaluation could be done there was no choice but to replace the Power Booster. I was told it would be $2600.00 and that even if it was not the problem, I had to pay for the repair for they could continue the evaluation process. This is 3 X the cost of the part per another source I called. I also feel I could have been killed/injured or killed and/or injured other people on the road if this had happened when I was driving as there was no pre warning of the problem and having the Certified Service Associate telling me to drive the car knowing that I had total system failure's scrolling across my dash.
2017 Honda CRV Touring 19, 647 miles. As I was approaching a red light, I stepped on my brake to slow down and brake for the red light. Upon trying to stop, I had NO BRAKE POWER WHATSOEVER. Having no brake power I could not stop, I did have an accident and hit another vehicle. My vehicle still would not stop as I continued to try and brake. I drifted approximately 1/2 mile from the accident until it fully stopped. My airbag went off and my Honda Link did contact the police and ambulance. I had minor injuries and just went to my primary physician. I do have a police report. At this time it is at an independent collision center, once repaired it will go to Honda for scanning and diagnose. I am told it can be repaired, BUT, who will diagnose why this happened, and I don’t know why automatic emergency braking system didn’t work.
vehicle stutters when cold, and strong fuel smell when operating vehicle. There were no warnings message, problems has not been confirmed by a dealer.
I was driving with my grandchildren in my 2017 CR-V AWD and when I stopped the vehicle I was unable to put the car in park. I could not move the gear shift and then the gear shift knob fell off. I had to call my husband who was able to rig it so that we could put the car in our driveway. I researched online and on this site and see that it is a known problem. I took the car to the dealership today. They stated that it was a recall but that my car VIN was not included in the recall. My car was the first one that they had repaired that was not included in the recall. I had it fixed and paid $82.96. It is not just the money that upsets me but the fact that I was stuck with no way to put my car in park and that they knew about the problem but had not notified me to get it fixed. I did do an online chat with a Honda rep and am waiting to hear back from them. I only had 28,209 miles on my vehicle. I was not given the old parts after the repair
Pulled out of a parking spot, and after shifting into drive, I heard a pop. Then when I got home, and pulled into the garage to park, realized the shift button was missing and that I couldn't get the car into park. After much finagling, I was able to get into park. We then found the button that had broken off on the floor. With this button broken off the car is inoperable due to not being able to shift the gears. This is a problem that has been reported before on this vehicle and some of the vehicles have been recalled for this problem. I called the dealership and was told my vehicle was not part of that recall, but they were aware of this problem.
When the vehicle is not driven for a few days, battery is dead. There is a parasitic drain going on with the battery and Honda is not addressing this problem. This has happened numerous times. The battery has been replaced twice but problem still exists. Dealer cannot fix this issue. Have read reports of vehicle stopping while people are driving it because the battery dies.
I was driving along the highway when all of a sudden the car stalled and all of the lights started to flash; we noticed there is a recall for fuel pumps on 2018-2019 honda CR-V's but this is the same exact thing that happend to our 2017, luckily nobody was hurt as the state police came right away and we were towed to the side of the highway; there was no warning signs; We had the car towed to the Honda dealership and it was diagnosed as a faulty/failing fuel pump. Hope this helps
I smell Gas on the engine and outside the Car. I took out the dipstick. It smell Gas too. There's Website www.crvownersclub.com gave this Website to report problems. I hope NHTSA will investigate this issue. Should this issue be recall for safety issue? Regards Jim
I was pulling into my garage. As i was decelerating, my vehicle lunged forward, making a loud, revving engine noise. My foot was on the brake, but this didn't prevent my CRV from impacting the back wall of the garage with enough force to crack the interior sheetrock and floor molding and pushing the king size bed approximately two feet away from the wall. Car also suffered considerable damage under the hood, and is not driveable. The airbag did not engage.
I while driving my 2017 Honda CRV on a country road with no one in front of me or behind. It was a clear day. There were no obstacles or shadows on the road. The road was straight. On its own, the car decided to apply the automatic emergency braking, bring my car to a stop. This was very scary. I was lucky no car was behind me. I took it into the Honda dealership, and they could not identify any problems or provide any solutions.
My 2017 Honda CR-V had a noise coming from the steering wheel. My local Honda dealer Wesley Chapel Honda diagnosed the problem and found out that the defective part is the "cable reel" in the steering wheel of the car. This defective cable reel is related to the air bag and could pose serious safety issues. Honda has issued a Recall for the same part "cable reel" for 2019 CR-V all trims (Service Bulletin 19-062). In my case, the problem is caused by the same defective part "cable reel"and should be recalled by Honda and fixed for me as soon as possible. Honda North America should extend their recall to cover more CR-Vs using the same defective part.
My 2017 Honda CRV was just little over 25k millage and A/C stop working, only blow hot air. It was very dangerous to drive during heavy rain condition in summer. It is a very serious safety matter and it should be a recall for a fixing. I don't understand why Honda ignored so many complaints and not fixing it. It is completely ruin its reputation all over the years they have developed in USA.
The center console display will not dim. Attempting to dim it results in momentary dimming and then it returns to full brightness. The glare from the display makes it extremely difficult to see at night. I had the dealer check it out and they told me that Honda released a Technical Service Bulletin to replace the unit. However, since the vehicle is not under warranty at this time the part alone is around $2300. This is a safety issue and should be covered or repaired at a lower cost.
Was driving over railroad tracks when BRAKE warning suddenly came on screen causing automatic braking. This lead to a sudden and complete stop causing vehicle to almost be rear ended. Nothing was in the road that should have caused the collision mitigation system to trip and apply the brakes. Nothing appears wrong otherwise or since the sudden braking
When starting the vehicle, all of the safety system warning messages came on one right after the others. Sometimes, it is enough to turn the engine off for a few minutes and restart the car, for all of the warnings to be cleared. Other times (this past weekend) the same thing happens several starts in a row. The vehicle seemed to operate normally despite the warnings—most of which relate to assisted driving and safety systems. I don’t know if the problem actually created a safety risk. The vehicle has not been taken to a dealer or service center, but I am taking it in the day after tomorrow. It has not been inspected. The system warning lights themselves are the problem.
As I was driving out of town, my A/c stopped working. It was over 80 degrees outside but we were able to roll down windows. However, it became a real safety issue when it rained and I was on a major interstate in another state. My windows fogged up and I couldn’t get it to clear because there was no A/C. My repair shop says compressor is bad. It appears to be a relatively common problem.
Vehicle reports multiple faults at once at random instances. Usually happens upon turning the Vehicle on Faults include: Engine system problem Tire pressure monitor system Electrical power steering Adaptive cruise control CMBS problem (collision mitigation braking system problem) RDM problem (road departure mitigation problem) Each light associated with these systems indicate on the dash along with scrolling text The vehicle operates normally besides certain systems being disabled entirely Steers normal Brakes normal (the electronic braking system flashes and does not indicate whether or not the brakes are applied in which they do lock and release) Engine seems to run fine
On multiple occasions, the audio/information display screen has gone completely blank or black. It worked in the back up mode where I could see behind my car, but would not display any controls, climate, audio, phone etc. The screen was completely black. After turning on/off no change. After leaving the car off overnight, it worked the next day. Again this happened at least 3 times over the past year.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while attempting to start the vehicle, the vehicle would not start due to battery drainage. The contact could not jumpstart the vehicle. The battery was replaced 3 weeks prior to the failure. The contact stated that 7 months prior, the battery had been replaced. The vehicle was towed to the dealer and was awaiting a diagnostic test. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 156,000.
The shift lever push button fell off while I was driving the car. Luckily it did not cause an accident to me. Now the car is unusable until repaired.
Air conditioning system broke just over 3 years after purchase. Just outside dealer warranty period. I believe it is the AC compressor. From what I'm reading online, this is a very common issue for the CRV models in the years 2017-2020 and should be subject to a recall. No warning signs before it went down.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving on several occasions, several unknown warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and the contact was informed that the vehicle was working as designed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 56,000.
The car doesn’t start . I have a message of brake system and don’t recognize the keys
While driving on the NJ turnpike dashboard lights came on indicating system issue with adaptive cruise control, road hazard mitigation system and brake system. Went to the dealer and they said the radar needed to be replaced at a cost of $1300. Research on the internet indicates this is a problem with many 2017 Honda CRV's and class action lawsuits have been launched across the country. i believe there should be a recall on the 2017 Honda CRV since it is affecting so many vehicles. Thank You.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while starting the vehicle, several unknown warning lights illuminated and remained illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer who inspected the vehicle and performed a system reset however, the warning lights remained illuminated. The contact took the vehicle back to the local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 123,000.
In less than three and half years, I have replaced the battery at least three times. This time like the others, the battery was DEAD. I took it to the dealership (Pacific Honda) and with documentation from O Reilly's confirming the battery was good. The initial evaluation from the dealership was some kind of module (can't remember the name he gave me) was the cause and needed to be replaced. The part was to be delivered the next day. However, later the next day I received a call informing me that the diagnosis was wrong. The "Shifter Base Assembly" was defective and not alerting the system the car was in park. That caused the electrical system to remain active and draining the battery. That part is on back-order and unknown when it will be available. My car is parked at the dealership at no use to me. A "Google" inquiry alerted me to a widespread module issue draining the battery.
The air conditioner wasn't cooling. We tested and found the driver's side was only blowing 68 degrees and the passenger side was 55 degrees at the lowest setting. I took it to the dealer and they found a leak in the discharge hose. Please see the attached fix and invoice. I believe these suvs should be re-called and that I should be reimbursed the $100 deductible I had to pay for it to be fixed. Thanks!
When driving, the gear shift button fell out. I was able to temporarily continue putting it in to shift gears, but then the internal part crumbled and the gear will not lock/permanently pressed in. Overnight, this caused my car to lose power (battery drain)? Will require replacement to be installed; cannot use car in meantime.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while shifting gears, the shifter button detached without warning. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 29,000.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while his wife was driving approximately 50-60 mph, the brake pedal was stiff. The driver shifted into neutral as the speed decreased and placed the gear shifter into park. The braking system warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was restarted and drove as designed. The vehicle was towed to the local dealer where they were unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 34,081.
UKNOWN. The button on the shifter knob broke when I shifted from park into reverse. I have to reassemble it every time I need to shift.
ELECTRICAL: this Honda CRV has had problems with the battery at apx12,000 miles. Battery fully discharged, requires being reset at a service facility because even after jumping the car, dash states that many of the functions will not operate. How stupid is that? VERY. Battery dead again in Dec. 2020, just under 13,000 miles. After jump, I traveled about 70 miles. After 2 days, dead again. Another 2 hr delay waiting for a jump and went directly to replace the battery. We bought the car new in Nov of 2017, this should not happen. The service person said that Honda puts in cheap batteries, so I attributed it to that until I read many of the NHTSA reports here with issue after issue being reported. Also, in summer of 2020, we noticed the air conditioning system seemed very weak. I did not take any action at that time, not sure what to do about that. Now in June of 2021, there is DEFINITELY A PROBLEM, no AC on these over 90 degree temp heat wave days. One doesn't buy an expensive car to have problems like this. Entering the car on a hot rainy day with the inside front windshield all fogging, you can't clear it without air conditioning. I couldn't drive the car until it cleared, which took a long time. I guess visibility isn't a high enough safety issue for Honda. And again after reading a hundred of these NHTSA reports, no need to read all 206, the pattern is clear. I now see the number of problems I will most likely face, my gear shift knob falling apart, car suddenly breaking when no other cars are around, or when cars are behind me and slam into me. I will sell the car and move on to a different manufacturer. This is my first Honda, and will be my last. Honda doesn't give a crap about these incidents because there are MANY and they have done nothing. I'm not even sure what the NHTSA does other than collect these if they don't hammer a company to fix repeating problems. Maybe they just keep them for archives? Hey NHTSA> WHAT IS THE POINT IF YOU DO NOTHING???
Entire system failure occurred while driving on a 4-lane interstate at speeds of 70 mph in congested traffic in air temps of 80 F (sunny). Vehicle lost all power both electrical / mechanical for roughly four to five seconds. There was immediate deacceleration and zero power (electrical / mechanical). Driver's immediate response was to remove hands from steering wheel and removed foot from gas in a state of shock/disbelief. Vehicle then restarted itself and resumed function. Driver was put at extreme risk as well as all other drivers / vehicles in surrounding roadway due to the extreme deacceleration with no warning. Incident reported to dealer who stated they had not heard of such an occurrence and requested vehicle be brought in for a $120 diagnostic check. Vehicle purchased new. Mileage at time of incident 20,000.
We purchased this car used with just at 40,000 miles and it passed inspection without any codes. After owning it less than two weeks, my son was driving it with his brother in the front passenger seat and they luckily noticed the PASSENGER AIR BAG OFF LIGHT WAS STILL ON even though his brother is 145lbs and should easily activate the airbag system. We took this to the Dealer and they stated that the air bag seat sensor was showing "-19lbs with no one seated in it" and not registering proper weight of passenger. The dealership then reset the sensor mat, but the issue returned within 2 days of getting it back. The Dealer is asking $1,000 to repair this as it is just over the 36 month warranty period. The reason I am reporting this is I own a 2017 Porsche Macan and they have recalled it for the same reason and I see this as a safety issue for the passenger, not a regular repair. Last it is concerning that a major safety system like this can fail in this situation and not show a code or alert the owner of the car better than this light. This MAJOR safety issue relies on the owner/driver to notice the "Passenger airbag off" light is illuminated with a adult weight passenger onboard which is always on when there is no passenger in the car, so this seems like it can lead to situations like this when the system is not working as designed. The location of the light and lack of any other warning can lead to this warning light being missed and people not being protected in an accident by the airbag.
I have a 2017 Honda CRV with 1.5 turbo with only 89,651 miles. When we started the vehicle every warning light on the dash was on , including parking brake, lane departure, forward collision warning, lane keeping assist . So we didn't know if it was safe to even drive the car home. So I had to have a family member bring a code reader so i I could see if we could drive it home. It only had 3 codes, P0302 Cylinder 2 Misfire Dtc severity 2 of 3, P0302 cylinder 2 Misfire detected and another P0302 cylinder misfire. Had no codes of all the warning lights that were flashing on the dash. I cleared the codes with the code reader and all warning lights went off. So we drove it home. The next day we sent it to a Honda dealer and they performed a software update and a air-fuel test on all 4 cylinders. The vehicle did fail air-fuel test. The Honda dealer recommends new fuel injectors at a cost of $ 1264.00 . I feel there is a defect in the fuel injectors if they only lasted 89,650 miles. Also Honda might have a software problem if bad fuel injectors makes all the warning lights go on .
Dear NTHSA, Since last fall/winter my 2017 Honda CRV air conditioning system makes noise and has stopped cooling when its hot outside. This is a relatively new car with low mileage (24,000). I am taking it to my local dealer www.pierceyhonda.com for diagnosis. Are you aware of air conditioner problems in newer Honda CRVs like mine that are failing to cool on hot days like what I am reporting. Please help at your earliest convenience. Sincerely 2017 Honda CRV Owner
During a routine drive, I heard what sounded like a piece of plastic fall into my cup holder area. I glanced into the cup holders and surrounding center console area, but did not observe anything that may have fallen into it. The vehicle continued to operate as normal so I continued to my destination. When I arrived, I went to put my vehicle in park, but then noticed that my gear shifter actuation button was missing. I was only able to get the vehicle into neutral, but not park or reverse. I looked down on the drivers side floor, but did not see the missing actuation button. My next thought was to get out of my seat and look for it under my seat. When I took my foot off of the brake pedal, the vehicle started to roll because I was on a slight grade and still in neutral. I then set the parking brake to hold the vehicle while I searched for the missing button. I finally found the button and the spring that goes with it laying on the drivers side floor almost under the seat. I observed the actuator and could see where it was actually broke, but I was still able to insert it back into the gear shifter handle and put the car into park and shut it off. To get home later, I had to wrap some electrical tape around the button so that it would not fall out again. When I got home, I could not turn my car off after parking because the electrical tape was preventing the actuation button from fully disengaging. I later removed the tape and covered the entire shifter knob with a small sock to hold the actuation button in. Currently looking into recalls and repairs.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle would independently brake without warning. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 52,101.
The contact owns a 2017 Honda CR-V. The contact stated while driving 78 mph in inclement weather, the instrument cluster became inoperable. The “No Radar Detected” message was displayed. The contact was unaware of the speed or the mileage on the vehicle. The contact stated that after the rain stopped falling, the instrument cluster functions returned. The failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to determine the cause of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 5,544.
Steering wheel has too much play/turns too easily/doesn't feel tight enough for accurate maneuverability. Highway driving requires constant focus on lane position and lane lines, making for an exhausting drive. Very difficult to prevent car from drifting out of the lane. Accident could result from car quickly drifting into neighboring lanes an oncoming traffic. Shortly after purchase, Honda mechanic checked it out. Even with an appointment I was there for 3 hours. I was told no issues were found. However, when I left the dealership, I immediately noticed a considerable improvement in maneuverability. Over time the challenging maneuverability issue has returned.
While driving about 25 mph on a corner, all the warning lights on dash board lit up and power suddenly dropped to less than 10 mph. Luckily there was a turnout where I pulled over. If someone was following me I could have been rear ended and pushed into on coming traffic. There was no warning or indication that I would be losing power like that. I have talked to Honda dealership and they have not heard of this happening. I have Googled this problem and it seems that other 2017-2018 CRVs are experiencing this issue too.
June 2, 2021 car was taken to local Honda dealer. Touch screen problems. Touch screen said Anti Theft system not workingPress and hold power button. I did and screen went black. I feel unsafe driving with a black screen ,when I back up I have no rear camera. I have no access to the other settings either. Honda repairmen updated computer system and it worked for one day. Today -June 4, 2021 the screen lit up when I started the car, went black with no warning messages a minute later. A few minutes later it came back on.
On a number of occasions the AEB has activated out of nowhere. Most often this has occurred when approaching an underpass, maybe the AEB is detecting the shadow of the bridge? It very scary as it beeps loudly and the breaks come on suddenly, causing me to jerk forward unexpectedly. This is potentially very dangerous when at high speeds. This has happened to me again today while on a straight highway road at 70 mph with no car in front of me and thankfully no car behind. In total this has happened about 15-20 times in the past three years.
While driving down the road, the button on the gear shifter popped off. It’s the button you push to move the shifter from Park to Drive, etc. I pulled over, but could not put the vehicle in Park or any other gear. Being already in Drive, I drove to Hendrick Honda in Easley, SC where they quickly put in a new button. It cost about $75. I was told that this is a known problem in 2017 Honda CRVs, the plastic attachment breaks and must be replaced. I was told that “there was a recall on some vehicles”, but there was no recall on mine. If there is a known problem affecting the shifting, it should be recalled and repaired. Turning off the vehicle in Drive, with no option to use Park is not safe. I could use the parking brake, of course. At a minimum, owners should know about the problem and what to do.
I tried using my air conditioner for the first time this year and it's blowing hot air.
TUGGING , PULLING SENSATION MAINLY WHEN TURNING LEFT AND SOMETIMES WHEN TURNING RIGHT MOTION IS NOT INITIATED BY THE DRIVER CAR WAS TAKEN TWICE TO HONDA DEALER AND KEPT FOR 3 TO 4 DAYS -AXLE REPLACED- DIDN'T HELP. TODAY IS MAY 18, 2021 AND I AM STILL HAVING STEERING PROBLEMS WITH THIS VEHICLE- STEERING WHEEL PULLS AND TUGS NOW AND THEN AT VARIOUS SPEEDS.
THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE CONTACT RELATED THE ISSUE TO THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ERRONEOUSLY ACTIVATING WITHOUT A VEHICLE BEING NEARBY AROUND. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO Leith Honda (3940 Capital Hills Dr, Raleigh, NC 27616) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED WITH NOTHING NEEDING TO BE REPLACED. THE SOFTWARE WAS UPDATED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD BEEN INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE MANUFACTURER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 48,013.
MY AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT WORKING AND I'M VERY CONCERNED. IV BEEN SEARCHING AND THIS PARTICULAR YEAR SEEMS TO HAVE A LOT OF PROBLEMS WITH AIR CONDITIONING NOT PROPERLY WORKING.. IT JUST BLOW HOT AIR. FOR A VEHICLE ONLY 4 YEARS OLD DOES NOT SEEM RIGHT.. I BELIEVE THE AIR COMPRESSOR IS WORKING (ENGAGING)
SHUTTER GRILLE CLOSES WHEN ENGINE HOT USUALLY AT FREEWAY SPEED, POWER TO ENGINE REDUCED AUTOMATICALLY, UNABLE TO SPEED UP IN EMERGENCY SITUATION. DEALER JUST SHRUGS AT COMPLAINTS. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES.
MY 2017 HONDA CRV HAS 89K MILEAGE ON IT, WHILE DRIVING THE CAR ON 05/13/2021 ALL THE SAFETY AND OTHER SENSOR STOP WORKING. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THE FUEL INJECTORS ARE BAD AND THEY HAVE TO REPLACE ALL AT ONCE. I LOOKED ONLINE AND MULTIPLE PERSONS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2017 CRV ANYWHERE FROM 34K TO 90K MILEAGE
FUEL OR EXHAUST SMELL ON STARTUP
ON THE WAY DOWN FROM GRAPEVINE ALONG I-5, WARNING LIGHTS SHOWED ON MY DASHBOARD, E.G. TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM, EMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, ETC..., I PANIC AND EXITED THE FREEWAY. I OPENED THE HOOD TO COOL THE ENGINE. AFTER ABOUT AN HOUR, I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND THE WARNING LIGHTS DISAPPEARED SO I CONTINUED MY TRAVEL. HOWEVER, AFTER ABOUT 40 MILES, THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME UP AGAIN. SO, I EXITED THE FREEWAY AGAIN. WE CALLED SERVICE DEALER IN BAKERSFIELD AND BASED ON OUR REPORT HE SAID THE COMPUTER MAY NOT BE TALKING WITH OTHER PARTS. HE ASKED US TO BRING IT IN. BUT THIS DEALER IS SOME 30 MILES AWAY AND IT'S TOO FAR FROM HOME. I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AGAIN AND THE WARNING LIGHTS WENT AWAY AFTER THE ENGINE HAS COOLED DOWN. SO I WENT BACK TO THE FREEWAY DRIVING SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY UNTIL THERE WAS A SLOWER TRUCK IN FRONT OF ME. I TRIED TO OVERTAKE THE TRUCK THEN I FELT LIKE SOMETHING SNAPPED, THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS CAME OUT AND I CAN FEEL THE ENGINE WAS LOSING POWER SO I PARKED ON THE SIDE AND DECIDED TO HAVE THE CAR TOWED SINCE IT CAN STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD PUTTING OUR LIVES IN DANGER. WHEN THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALER CLOSE TO HOME, IT WAS DIAGNOSED AS INITIALLY FUEL PUMP PROBLEM WITH AN ESTIMATED COST OF ABOUT $2,000. BUT THE PARTS WILL TAKE ABOUT A WEEK TO SHIP DUE TO HAZARD ISSUES. THEY OFFER TO BUY BACK OUR CAR BUT AT ONLY HALF THE PRICE THAT WE BOUGHT IT. IT'S ALMOST FOUR YEARS OLD.
MULTIPLE TIMES ALL SYSTEM WARNING MESSAGES FLASH ON DASHBOARD SCREEN. AUDIBLE ALERT ALSO DINGS. VEHICLE OPERATES OK BUT WARNING MESSAGES CONTINUE TO FLASH ENTIRE TIME VEHICLE IS DRIVEN. TAKEN TO HONDA DEALER TWICE. ERRORS CLEARED AND SENSING RADAR REPLACED. ISSUE CONTINUES TO HAPPEN. DISCONNECT OF NEG BATTERY FOR 30 SEC CLEARS ALL CODES BUT UNDERLYING ISSUE REMAINS.
TOOK MY CAR IN APRIL 30 WHEN DASH LIGHTS BEGAN CYCLING THROUGH ALL DIAGNOSE BRAKE PROBLEMS,ENGINE PROBLEMS, ETC. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS MY BRAKES PAY $400 TO GET THEM FIXED ON MAY 8, TOOK THE CAR BACK WITH THE SAME PROBLEM HONDA DEALER IN BAY RIDGE
GEAR SHIFTER BUTTON POPPED OUT AND AS A RESULT I COULD NOT TURN OFF THE CAR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. I WAS IN A PARKING LOT ABOUT TO SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE WHEN IT HAPPENED. SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND FROM DRIVE TO PARK ALSO WAS VERY TRICKY.
1ST OWNER 2017 CRV WITH 51000. DRIVING DOWN HIGHWAY. CHECK ENGINE AND ALL SAFETY ASSIST FAILURE. DRIVE FOR A FEW DAYS AND LIGHT RESET. FEW MORE DAYS AND AGAIN THIS HAPPENS AND ENGINE ALSO LOOSES POWER. (HAVE NEWBORN IN THE CARE AND 3 YEAR OLD).OBD READER DISPLAYS CODES P0304 AND P0172. TAKE IT TO THE DEALER AND REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER AS THEIR IS EXTENDED WARRANTY ON OIL DILUTION PROBLEM. RE-TEST AND 4TH FUEL INJECTOR FAULTY. NOT COVERED BY POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. I CALL HONDA AND THEY ARE TRYING TO "GOODWILL" PART OF THE $1500 COST RATHER ADMITTING THAT THERE IS A FUEL INJECTOR ISSUE LIKE ON OTHER MODELS. COULD OF ENDED IN A MAJOR CAR ACCIDENT WITH CHILDREN! VERY DISAPPOINTED IN HONDA.
OUR SUV CONTINUES TO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE DASHBOARD. IT SHOWS ERRORS THEN IT WON'T START. WE ARE REBOOTING IT AT LEAST TWICE A MONTH. WE HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY AND HAD TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. THE INCIDENTS HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING.
I TURN THE CAR ON AND THE SCREEN SHOWS MULTI FUNCTION FAILURE PROBLEMS VSA HILL START ROAD DEPARTURE DRIVE CAREFULLY SYSTEM ALL. AFTER RESTARTING 10 OR SO TIMES PROBLEM STOPS
THERE IS A FUEL/OIL RATIO ISSUE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO RELEASE A VERY LARGE AMOUNT OF SMOKE WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP OR WHEN PARKED. THE SMOKE DOES LESSEN WHEN DRIVING CONTINUALLY WITHOUT A STOP.
I SCAN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WITH OBD SCANNER AND ITS SHOWS P219F CODE. I SEARCH ON GOOGLE AND ITS COME TO THIS DESCRIPTION. WHEN A CODE P219F IS STORED, IT MEANS THAT THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE (PCM) HAS DETECTED AN IMBALANCE ERROR IN THE NUMBER FOUR CYLINDER. TO MONITOR THE AIR TO FUEL RATIO FOR EACH CYLINDER OF THE ENGINE, THE PCM USES DATA INPUT FROM HEATED EXHAUST OXYGEN SENSORS (SOMETIMES CALLED AIR FUEL SENSORS) AND THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION (CKP) AND CAMSHAFT POSITION (CMP) SENSORS. I SAW ONLINE AND LOTS OF PEOPLE HAS SAME PROBLEM IN HONDA CRV 2017-18 MODEL. I ALREADY REPORTED PROBLEM BEFORE WITH HONDA BUT GET STANDARD REPLY.
EVERY EARRING LIGHT COMES ON THE DASHBOARD AT THE SAME TIME. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST YEAR. THE CAR ABRUPTLY STOPPED WHEN I WAS TRAVELING 30MPH. THE ORANGE BREAK LIGHT FLASHED AND THE CAR STOPPED ITSELF WHEN COMING ACROSS A METAL PLATE IN THE ROAD. LUCKILY THERE WASN'T ANY VEHICLE BEHIND ME OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT. DEALER SAID SEVERAL SOFTWARE UPDATES WERE NEEDED AND THE A/C CONTROL PANEL NEEDED REPLACED. PLUS AND OIL CHANGE WAS NEEDED IN ORDER TO REPLACE THE A/C CONTROL PANEL. I HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE MARCH 2020. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOR ALL OIL CHANGES AND SERVICING SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR. I TOLD THE TECH LAST OIL CHANGE ABOUT THE WARNING LIGHT ISSUE AND HE SAID JUST DRIVE THE CAR IN NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED BECAUSE THEY NEEDED THE VEHICLE WHILE IT WAS HAPPENING.
DESIGN OR INSTALLATION OF WIRING HARNESS MAY HAVE CAUSED THE AIR CONDITIONER WIRE TO THE PRESSURE SENSOR TO BREAK. I DO NOT KNOW IF THIS REPRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE, HOWEVER, THERE HAVE BEEN REPORTS OF FIRE OCCURRING IN OTHER CRV VEHICLES HAVING A FAULTY WIRE HARNESS. REPLACING THE HARNESS IS ALMOST ENTIRELY LABOR AT A COST OF ALMOST $600.00
AT 60-70K MILES, THE 2017 CR-V MODEL HAS BEEN WIDELY SHOWN TO HAVE FUEL INJECTORS THAT FAIL. MY VEHICLE HAS HAD INTERMITTENT ELECTRICAL ISSUES FOLLOWED BY AN EMISSIONS WARNING THAT PROMPTED ME TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THEY INSPECTED AND INFORMED ME IT WOULD BE $1600 TO REPAIR DUE TO FUEL INJECTOR MALFUNCTION (CODES P0172, P219D) AND GASOLINE DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL AND IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER A WARRANTY EXTENSION FOR OTHER OIL DILUTION ISSUES. I STARTED DOING RESEARCH AND HAVE FOUND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AROUND THE MILEAGE OF MY VEHICLE (65K MILES 3.5 YEARS OLD) AND OTHER OWNERS OF THIS PARTICULAR MODEL YEAR HAVE LOBBIED TO HONDA TO HAVE PART OR ALL OF THE REPAIR PAID FOR (AN AT LEAST PARTIAL ADMISSION THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA.) THIS EMISSION ERROR HAPPENED WHILE THE CAR WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY.
OUR 2017 HONDA CR-V WILL NOT KEEP THE BATTERY CHARGED EVEN WITH RECOMMENDED DRIVING PER CROWN HONDA OF GREENSBORO NC. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY TWICE AND IT HAS BEEN INTO THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT FOR A DEAD BATTERY 5 TIMES AS OF 3/30/21. WE DID HAVE ANOTHER DEAD BATTERY LAST WEEK AND HAVE NOT SCHEDULED ANOTHER APPT.
THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT GET WARM IN THE WINTER. I LIVE IN MICHIGAN AND HEAT IS IMPORTANT. I UNDERSTAND IT IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND I WANT TO KNOW WHAT HONDA IS DOING ABOUT IT.
I WAS DRIVING MY 2017 HONDA CRV LAST NIGHT AND OUT OF NOWHERE, ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON ACROSS THE DASHBOARD, INCLUDING DISABLING TRACTION CONTROL, ANTI-LOCK BRAKES AND EMISSIONS SAFETY, AMONG MANY OTHER ERRORS. THESE SYSTEMS PROVIDE SAFE DRIVING SO THEY ARE ESSENTIAL FOR USE, AND ALSO FRIGHTENING TO HAVE DEACTIVATED WHEN CRUISING DOWN THE STREET IN DOWNTOWN DENVER, SURROUNDED BY TRAFFIC AND PEDESTRIANS. THE CAR HAS LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE WARNING LIGHT ON, INCLUDING THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF SEVERAL TIMES DID NOT FIX IT AND SO IT WILL NEED DEALER REPAIR. UPON DOING RESEARCH, I'VE NOTICED THAT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH 2017-2018 HONDA CRVS AND IS AFFECTING A LOT OF OTHER DRIVERS. THIS CAR FEELS VERY UNSAFE IF ALL THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS KICK ON AND OFF AS THEY PLEASE, SEEMINGLY AT RANDOM.

ALL ADA WARNING LIGHTS COME ON WHEN VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN. DOES NOT SEEM TO AFFECT DRIVABILITY BUT ALL FUNCTIONS ARE DISABLED. LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF ON THEIR OWN ONCE OTHER TIMES HAD TO CYCLE POWER ON COMPUTER TO RESET. PROBLEM IS BECOMING MORE FREQUENT
WHILE DRIVING UNDER ORDINARY CONDITIONS, WARNING SYSTEMS BEGIN. THE FIRST WARNING IS TO PULL OVER BECAUSE THE AWD SYSTEM IS OVERHEATING. FROM THAT POINT, MANY DIFFERENT WARNING MESSAGES BEGIN SCROLLING WITH REPEATED WARNINGS OF ALL SYSTEMS IN THE CAR FAILING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS, APPROXIMATELY 3 WEEKS APART. ALSO, ON ONE OCCASSION, WHILE DRIVING, THE BRAKE LIGHT BEGAN TO FLASH TO CAUTION A SLOW DOWN, AND THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES OR OBSTACLES ON ANY SIDE OF THE CAR. AFTER THE CAR HAS BEEN PARKED FOR SEVERAL HOURS, THE COMPUTER SEEMS TO "RESET" ITSELF, AND NORMAL OPERATION IS RETURNED. ALL INSTANCES OCCURRED DURING NORMAL CITY DRIVING AT SPEEDS BELOW 35 MILES PER HOUR.
START CAR AFTER PUTTING DRIVE ALL ALARMS GO OFF AND BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY APPLY IN WHEN DRIVING. ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND I AM UNABLE TO CONTROL MY VEHICLE. IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME I ONLY HAVE ONE CAR AND AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT!
1:L.S SUSPENSION IS MAKING CLUNKY NOISE FOR LONG TIME.THIS PROBLEM WAS ON AND OFF BUT NOW ITS CONTINUOUSLY MAKING NOISE WHILE I DRIVE TO A BUMPY OR SMALL BROKEN ROAD. 2:ENGINE WAS MAKING ROARING NOISE THEN I FOLLOW UP WITH DEALER WITH MY RECALL NOTICE. I DON'T KNOW THEY FIX IT OR NOT BUT STILL MAKING THIS NOISE. 3:SMELL SOLID FUEL/GASOLINE FROM THE EXHAUST SYSTEM.FULL TANK GAS GIVING ME ONLY 178 MILES RANGE BUT I'M NOT ABLE TO DRIVE 150 MILES EVEN.I ALWAYS TAKE THE SILVER GASOLINE WHICH IS $38 DOLLARS FOR THE FULL TANK.SOMETIMES MORE AND MORE THIS IS THE BIGGEST PROBLEM OF CAR AND MY FINANCIAL. I THINK MY FUEL IS LEAKING AND THIS COULD BE SOMETHING ELSE. CREDIT KARMA SHOWING ME I HAVE 3 OPEN RECALLS WHICH IS ONE OF THEM. BUT I DIDN'T RECEIVE ANY MAIL ANY EMAIL OR NOTIFICATION FROM THEM.
FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS ALL OF MY WARNING LIGHTS COME ON. THEY WILL GO OFF AT TIMES, OTHER TIMES I HAVE TO PULL OVER TO RESTART MY CAR. IN ADDITION, MY DISPLAY WILL GO DIM OR GET VERY BRIGHT ON IT'S OWN. ON FEBRUARY 27, 2021 MY ALARM STARTED TO GO OFF FOR NO REASON. THEY CAR WAS PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NO ONE WAS NEAR THE REMOTE. I COULD NOT GET THE ALARM TO GO OFF, NO MATTER WHAT I DID. ON MONDAY, MARCH 1ST I WENT TO START MY CAR AND IT WOULD NOT START OR RESPOND TO ANYTHING WITH THE REMOTE. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP, VALLEY HONDA IN MONROEVILLE, PA. THEY STATED THAT IT COULD BE THE BATTERY HAVING LOW VOLTAGE. THE DEALERSHIP IS OVER 45 MINUTES AWAY AND I NEEDED A VEHICLE TO HELP CARE FOR MY ILL FATHER SO I PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY AND INSTALLED IT LATE MONDAY NIGHT. AS SOON AS I STARTED THE VEHICLE ALL OF THE DASHBOARDS LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING AND THE ALARM WOULD RANDOMLY GO OFF. THIS CONTINUED UNTIL I COULD GET IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ON WEDS NIGHT. THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS A BODY CONTROL MODULE. MY CAR IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD WITH 50K MILEAGE BUT THE HONDA WARRANTY IS OUT. I EVEN CALLED HONDA WHO ONLY OFFERED A COURTESY PARTIAL PAYMENT, AS LONG AS I DID NOT PICK UP MY VEHICLE UNTIL THEY FINISHED THEIR INVESTIGATION. THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON FOR MY DISPLAY TO HAVE BEEN ACTING UP OR A NEED TO REPLACE A BCM WITH A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING LESS THEN 20 MPH WHEN THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE LOW POWER WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN OIL BURNING ODOR WAS DETECTED. THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND CHANGED THE OIL ON 3/3/21 AND NOTICED THE VEHICLE WAS LEAKING OIL A QUART OVER FUEL AND HAD GASOLINE IN THE OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSIS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND OFFERED NO ASSISTANCE. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOTIFIED AND THE CONTACT WAS TOLD TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN TO SCHEDULE A RECALL REPAIR APPOINTMENT. THE CONTACT STATED SHE CAN NOT TAKE THE VEHICLE IN AT THE MOMENT BECAUSE SHE JUST CHANGED THE OIL. THE CONTACT FELT THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,400.
FUEL IS GETTING INTO THE OIL SUMP CAUSING OIL DILUTION. THE CRV 1.5-LITER TURBO ENGINE HAS PROBLEMS. THIS IS DUE TO GASOLINE SEEPING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. I HAVE CONCERNS ABOUT THE DURABILITY OF THE 1.5-LITER TURBO ENGINE AND ABOUT MY VEHICLE POTENTIALLY STALLING, ESPECIALLY IN COLD WEATHER HERE IN ILLINOIS. A SAFETY ISSUE. HONDA SAYS THAT I NEED TO DRIVE IT MORE TO ALLOW ENGINE HEAT TO DISSIPATE THE FUEL. TRUE I DON'T PUT A LOT OF MILES ON MY CAR, BUT HOW OFTEN I DRIVE MY CAR SHOULD NOT BE FACTORED IN WHEN DESIGNING A SAFE AND RELIABLE CAR. FUEL DILUTED OIL WILL NOT PROPERLY LUBRICATE CRITICAL ENGINE PARTS. WHEN I HECK MY OIL, THE LEVEL RISES ON MY DIPSTICK. THERE IS ALSO A SMELL OF GASOLINE ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE TO KEEP GETTING OIL CHANGES TO FIX THAT. THIS HAS BEEN CONSTANTLY OCCURRING.SINCE I BOUGHT THE CRV (BOUGHT IN MARCH 2020).
HONDA CRV 2017 KEEPS DRAINING BATTERY EVEN AFTER IT IS TURNED OFF AND CAUSING ROUTINE SERVICE CALLS. IT ALSO TRIGGERS SECURITY SYSTEM ALARM TO GO OFF RANDOMLY AND CAR BEGINS TO REFLECT LIKE STARTING ON IT'S OWN WITH DISPLAYS RUNNING EVEN WHEN NO ONE IS IN THE CAR AFTER IT IS TURNED OFF. HOPE SUCH THINGS DO NOT HAPPEN ON ROAD WHEN PARKED AND CREATE OTHER ISSUES
AIR CONDITIONING DOES NOT COOL
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO STRONG GAS ODOR IN ENGINE OIL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN ADVISED TO MONITOR THE OIL LEVEL AND BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE SHOULD THE OIL LEVEL BECOME LOW OR THE YELLOW CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. *JS
VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND ALL OF THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS LIT UP. HAD BEEN VERY COLD WEATHER FOR ABOUT THE WEEK PRIOR. ALSO, THE HEATER WOULDN'T GET WARM AND CAR TOOK FOREVER TO WARM UP.
ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AFTER ENGINE START EG, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, POWER STEERING FAILURE, DRIVER ASSIST, ETC. IT WAS EVERY LIGHT. I TOOK IT TO HONDA IN WAS DIAG. WITH PO172 ENGINE RUNS RICH. HONDA BULLENTIN 19-032 WAS PERFORM WHICH INCLUDED REPLACING THE A/C CONTROL UNIT AND SOFTWARE UPDATE. AFTER ONE MONTH AND LESS THAN ANOTHER 1000 MILERS DRIVEN I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS MY FUEL INJECTORS NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR $1400. THE CAR HAS 38000 MILES ON IT AND JUST CAME OFF WARRANTY. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND APPARENTLY HAPPENS IN COLDER CLIMATES BUT I LIVED IN GA. COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE
WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR EVEN STOPPED WHEN BREAKING THE CAR ENGINE WILL REV ALMOST AS IF I TAKE MY FOOT OFF BREAK IT WOULD ACCEL. IT'S HAS DONE IT SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS
CAR BATTERY GETS DRAINED OUT OVER NIGHT AND IT'S NOT THE BATTERY OR THE ALTERNATOR. I'VE SEEN ONLINE MULTIPLE PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS
ENGINE OIL LEVELS ARE HIGH DUE EXCESSIVE DILUTION BY PETROLEUM. AS A RESULT THE OIL PAN IS HIGH CAUSING OIL LEAKS. THERE ARE NEW OIL DRIPS IN MY GARAGE EVERY DAY. I'M SURE THE ENGINE OIL IS LEAKING INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I DRIVE; I ALSO NOTICE OIL DRIPS ON THE GROUND AT WORK. THE OIL LEVEL CONTINUES TO BE HIGH EVEN WITH THE LEAKS. HONDA DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THE OIL HAS PETROLEUM IN IT. HONDA ALSO ACCEPTS DILUTION IS NORMAL IN THEIR CARS WITH THIS ENGINE, YET THE DEALERSHIP DENIED ANY SAFETY CONCERNS WITH THE LEAK. THE DEALERSHIP SIMPLY ADDED A DYE AND ASKED THAT I CONTINUE DRIVING AND COME BACK FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHICH WILL BE DUE IN ABOUT 3000 MILES. THE OIL MIXED WITH PETROL CAUGHT ON FIRE WHEN I WAS SMOKING IN THE GARAGE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN FOR EVERYONE THAT WORKS IN THEIR GARAGE, SMOKES, COOKS OR HAS A HEAT SOURCE NEAR IT. IT CAN CAUSE FIRE AND DEATH. HIGH CHANCES OF ENGINE STALLS DUE TO EXCESSIVE PRESSURE.
SHIFT KNOB BUTTON FELL OFF WHILE IN DRIVE
MALFUNCTION INDICATORS ALL LIGHT UP AT THE SAME TIME. MECHANIC CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, BUT HE RESETS THE COMPUTER AND THE LIGHTS GO OFF....TEMPORARILY! THE LIGHTS STAY ON UNTIL I GO BACK TO THE MECHANIC. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME. MY CAR IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY...IF I GO THERE, IT'LL COST A FORTUNE FOR THEM JUST TO LOOK AT IT, AND THEN ANOTHER FORTUNE FOR CHARGING TO 'FIX' THE PROBLEM. CAR IS STATIONARY...HAPPENS WHEN I TURN THE CAR ON. I LIVE IN TUCSON, AZ, SO I DOUBT IT'S THE WEATHER!
MY HONDA CR-V THREW UP WARNINGS ABOUT ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION PROBLEM, ELECTRIC BRAKE PROBLEM, TPMS ETC. AND MY VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY SLOWED DOWN IN TRAFFIC. SINCE THEN IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND NOW IT ALMOST ALWAYS THERE. VEHICLE HAS SLOWED DOWN IN TRAFFIC THRICE SINCE THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED IN OCTOBER 2020.
WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON ALMOST ALWAYS. CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK 90% OF THE TIME. I TRAVEL A LOT SO THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE FOR ME.
RECENTLY REPLACED BATTERY IN SUMMER OF 2020. GAVE THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION A JUMP AND UPON STARTING, SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED THAT HAVE TO DO WITH SOME OF THE SMART VEHICLE CONTROL. ONCE BATTERY WAS INSTALLED LIGHTS WENT AWAY FOR A FEW DAYS. BUT AFTER A FEW DAYS, THE WARNING LIGHTS HAVE CONTINUOUSLY APPEARED ON THE DASH IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING. THESE LIGHTS HAVE TO DO WITH CRUISE CONTROL, HILL START ASSIST, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ALL WHEEL DRIVE. WHILE AT FIRST, IT WAS THOUGHT THE LIGHTS WERE GIVING A FALSE POSITIVE, BUT NOW, IT IS CONFIRMED THAT THE SAFETY FEATURES THAT THE LIGHTS ARE INDICATING ARE NOT WORKING POSING NUMEROUS SAFETY CONCERNS. HONDA CORPORATION AND HONDA DEALERSHIP HAVE NOT DEALT WITH OR PROPOSED ANY SOLUTIONS ON THE MATTER. LIVING IN A WINTER CLIMATE, ALL WHEEL DRIVE IS VITAL AND AFTER A RECENT SNOW EVENT, THE ALL WHEEL DRIVE IS NOT FUNCTIONING AT ALL POSING GREAT SAFETY CONCERN. THE LIGHTS ARE ON AT ALL TIMES AS LONG AS THE IGNITION IS ON, REGARDLESS OF STOPPED OR ACTIVELY MOVING.
ENGINE OIL HAS STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. ENGINE OIL IS OVERFULL ON THE DIPSTICK. LONG TERM AND SHORT TERM FUEL TRIMS ADDED TOGETHER ARE -20%.
OVERNIGHT DEAD BATTERY
CAR BRAKES SUDDENLY WITHOUT CAUSE. BRAKES ARE APPLIED ABRUPTLY SIMULTANEOUSLY WITH VISUAL WARNING. NO OBSTACLE PRESENT. THIS OCCURS AT LOW SPEED (LESS THAN 30 MPH) ON CITY STREETS. SEEMS TO BE TRIGGERED BY BRIGHT LINES ON ROAD SURFACE (RAILROAD TRACKS, RUMBLE STRIPS) PERPENDICULAR TO TRAVEL DIRECTION.WHEN USING ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL CAR MISINTERPRETS VEHICLE IN DECELERATION LANE ON INTERSTATE AS BEING PRESENT AND SLOWING IN TRAVEL LANE IN FRONT OF IT. THIS RESULTS IN RAPID DECELERATION IN THE TRAVEL LANE. FORTUNATELY THERE HAVE NOT BEEN ANY VEHICLES FOLLOWING CLOSE WHEN THESE EVENTS OCCUR. BROUGHT CAR TO DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES WITHOUT RESOLUTION OF THE PROBLEM.
2017 CRV HAS 20K MILES. DROVE TO GOLF COURSE PARKING LOT. UPON RETURN SAW 10 INCH WINDSHIELD CRACK ON DRIVERS SIDE LOWER LEFT. SPONTANEOUS CRACK WITH NO IMPACT. CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT INFORMATION ON WEB, INCLUDING TESTIMONIALS FROM HUNDREDS ON VARIOUS CHAT SITES, SEEM TO INDICATE AN INHERENT DEFECT IN THE VEHICLES WINDSHIELD/FRAME INTERACTION. INTERNET INFORMATION SEEMS TO SUGGEST THIS WIDESPREAD PROBLEM IS IMPACTING 2017-2019 CRV'S.
2017 HONDA CRV EX-L AWD, PURCHASED NEW DEC 2017, ABOUT 37K MILES ON IT CURRENTLY. A COUPLE OF DAYS AGO- ON 1/27/2021- I WAS DRIVING WITH MY FAMILY (WIFE AND TWO TODDLERS) ON HIGHWAY ROUTE 4 WESTBOUND IN NJ GOING ABOUT 50MPH WITH MODERATE TRAFFIC, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN - BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE AND ALL ERROR MESSAGES APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. I FRANTICALLY TRIED TO BRAKE BUT THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS STIFF AND COULD NOT BE DEPRESSED. I TRIED REPEATEDLY TO SLAM ON THE BRAKES CAUSE THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME WAS APPROACHING FAST AND THANKFULLY AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE BRAKES WERE ABLE TO BE DEPRESSED AND I SAFELY PULLED OVER TO THE NEAREST STRIP MALL PARKING LOT WITH ALL THE ERROR MESSAGES FLASHING AND BRAKE SYSTEM ILLUMINATED, I TOOK PHOTOS AND VIDEO ON MY PHONE AND JUST MADE SURE WE WERE ALL OK. MY WIFE AND I WERE TOTALLY FREAKED OUT CAUSE IF WE WEREN'T ABLE TO STOP WE WOULD DEFINITELY HAVE REAR ENDED THE APPROACHING VEHICLE IN FRONT OF US AT 50MPH CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. IN THE PARKING LOT, WE TURNED OFF THE CAR AND BACK ON AND THE ERROR MESSAGES DISAPPEARED AND I WAS ABLE TO CAUTIOUSLY DRIVE BACK HOME. WE ARE VERY CONCERNED ABOUT OUR SAFETY IN THIS VEHICLE IF THIS HAPPENS AGAIN. ERROR MESSAGES HAVE OCCURRED ONCE OR TWICE IN THE PAST IN INCLEMENT WEATHER AND A FEW OF THE DRIVER ASSIST FEATURES WERE NOT WORKING DUE TO THE WEATHER. BUT NOTHING LIKE THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE WITH BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE / INABILITY TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND ALL ERRORS FLASHING ON THE DASHBOARD. IF I BRING IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP I READ ONLINE THAT IF THEY'RE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ERRORS THEN IT DOESN'T EXIST. PLEASE ADVISE. THANK YOU.
ENTIRE OPERATION SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE WAS AFFECTED CAUSING IMMEDIATE VEHICLE FAILURE. UNABLE TO PULL OVER OR MOVE OUT OF TRAFFIC. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS MALFUNCTION WITH COMPLETE LOSS OF CONTROL AT HIGH SPEED WITH NO WARNING. ALL DASH LIGHTS LIT UP/BLINKING. MANY SYSTEM ERRORS DISPLAYED ON MAIN DRIVER SCREEN NEAR STEERING WHEEL. THE SCREEN ERRORS QUICKLY READ THROUGH MULTIPLE ERRORS, INCLUDING POWER STEERING LOSS, TIRE PRESSURE LOSS, HILL CONTROL LOSS, ETC. THE SCREENS WERE GOING SO QUICKLY AND CAR WAS BEEPING LIKE IT HAD LOW GAS. BUT THE ONLY THING WE COULD DO WAS GET TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. WE HAVE DRIVEN THOUSANDS OF MILES IN MANY TYPES OF CARS AND SITUATIONS AND THIS WAS BY FAR ONE OF THE WORST MALFUNCTIONS WE HAVE EVER EXPERIENCED. IF THERE IS AN ELECTRONIC PROBLEM OR SITUATION WHERE YOUR CAR IS BREAKING THEN IT SHOULD SAY PULL OVER IMMEDATELY. IT WAS NO HELP TO FLASH THROUGH AN ARRAY OF FEATURES ON THE CAR HAVING ERROR. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!
VEHICLE ROLLS AWAY IN PARK. AT VARIOUS UNSPECIFIED TIMES THE VEHICLE FAILS TO MAINTAIN THE PARKING GEAR. FIRST EXAMPLE TOOK PLACE ON SLIGHTLY SLANTED DRIVEWAY: WHEN PLACED INTO PARK THE VEHICLE ROLLED BACKWARD (ALL WHEELS MOVING) AND OWNER JUMPED BACK IN TO HIT THE BRAKE SO AS TO AVOID ROLLING INTO ANYONE/ANYTHING. DEALERSHIP HAS DUPLICATED THE ISSUE MANY TIMES AND APPEARS UNABLE TO DETERMINE CAUSE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS IN THE RAIN, SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. CLASSIC FORD OF SMITHFIELD (1324 N BRIGHTLEAF BLVD, SMITHFIELD, NC 27577) WAS CONTACTED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT NOTED THAT EACH FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE IT WAS RAINING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
THE SAFETY FEATURE REACTS TO SHADOWS ON THE ROAD. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3-4 TIMES WHERE IF I'M DRIVING UNDER A BRIDGE THE CAR WILL BEEP AND SHOW A MESSAGE ASKING ME TO HIT THE BRAKES. I THINK THE CAR SEES THE SHADOW OF THE BRIDGE ON THE ROAD IN FRONT OF ME AS AN OBJECT AND IS ASKING ME TO STOP/ HIT THE BRAKES. IF THE CAR EVER APPLIES AUTOMATIC BRAKING, THEN THE CAR BEHIND ME CAN SLAM INTO ME CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.
OIL LEVELS IN CAR ARE ABOVE THE DIPSTICK AND SMELL LIKE PETROLEUM HAS LEAKED INTO THE OIL. THE FIX THAT HONDA INTRODUCED FOR THE OIL DILUTION ISSUE HAS CLEARLY NOT WORKED. INSIDE OF CAR HAS A PETROLEUM SMELL. MAKES ME LIGHTHEADED/DIZZY. I HAD TO PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY - STOP THE CAR AND AIR IT OUT. THERE WAS NOT ACCIDENT, BUT THIS CONTINUE ISSUE CAN CAUSE A MAJOR PROBLEM WHILE DRIVING INCLUDING ACCIDENT, INJURY AND DEATH.
ALL DASH LIGHT WARNINGS COME ON THE CAR SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AND SOMETIMES WHILE IDLING. WE HAVE BROUGHT THE CAR TO HONDA DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES AND THEY FIX A DIFFERENT PROBLEM EVERY TIME BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. NOW THEY ARE TELLING ME IT'S THE FUEL INJECTORS THAT NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY SO I WAS BE OUT OF POCKET $1200. QUICK INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THIS AS A COMMON PROBLEM ON ALL HONDA'S INCLUDING THE FIT AND PILOT FROM 2016,2017 AND NOW 2018 BUT THEY HAVE YET TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I AM RELEVANT TO PAY FOR FUEL INJECTORS ONLY TO HAVE MORE ISSUES. AND IF IT IS THE FUEL INJECTORS THEY SHOULD NOT BE FAILING ON A 3 YEAR OLD CAR WITH 50K MILES. WHERE'S THE RECALL OR AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR FUEL INJECTORS? THE IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN.
0DUE TO THE DESIGN OF THE COOLING SYSTEM THE VEHICLE DOES NOT REACH OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND THEREFOR IS NOT SAVE TO DRIVE IN COLD WEATHER I HAVE RESERVATIONS ABOUT BEING ABLE TO DEFROST WINDOWS AND NOT FREEZING IF STUCK IN SNOW THE DEALER TOLD ME THIS IS NORMAL WHEN PARKED THE FANS RUN CONTINUOUSLY ON THE RADIATOR,
COMPUTER FAILURE RESULTING IN MULTIPLE ERROR MESSAGE'S AND WARNING LIGHTS. LOSS OF ANTILOCK BRAKES, ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKES, AUTOMATIC COLLISION BRAKES, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE DEPARTURE MITIGATION, HILL ASSIST, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, POWER STEERING PROBLEM. TOOK VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER, THEY CLAIMED SOFTWARE ISSUE AND DID AN UPGRADE. PROBLEM IS BACK. I RESET THE COMPUTER BY DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY. A FEW DAYS LATER PROBLEM RETURNS. DOES NOT MATTER IF YOU ARE DRIVING OR PARKED. IT HAS FAILED WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE PARKED WITH ENGINE RUNNING. ERROR REQUIRES A COMPUTER RESET TO CLEAR IT. PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED OVER A YEAR AGO AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY..
CODE P0172 APPEARED. HONDA REPLACE A/C CONTROL MODULE WITH NO CHARGE UNDER BULLETIN 19-032. HONDA STATED "IF THE CODE COMES BACK ON THEY WILL NEED TO REPLACE INJECTORS AS WELL." THE CODE CAME BACK IN A MONTH BUT NOW THEY SAY ITS OFF WARRANTY AND I WILL HAVE TO PAY $1507.08 FOR INJECTOR REPLACEMENT. THEY SHOULD HAVE REPLACED THE INJECTORS FROM THE START.
HONDA CR-V BUTTON USED TO ENGAGE THE GEAR SHIFTER CRUMBLED APART WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK OUT OF DRIVE POSITION. THE CAR WAS STUCK IN THE DRIVE POSITION UNTIL BROUGHT INTO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE SHIFTER BUTTON REPLACED, CREATING A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE WHERE THE CAR IS STUCK IN A SPECIFIC GEAR POSITION. THE BUTTON BREAK WAS NOT CAUSED BY ANY KNOWN DIRECT MECHANICAL SHOCK AND MAY HAVE BEEN DUE TO THERMAL SHOCK OR TEMPERATURE/HUMIDITY CYCLING.
REVERSE CAMERA FAILS TO DISPLAY ON CENTRAL SCREEN WHEN REVERSE IS ENGAGED. SOLUTION IS TO HARD RESET THE SYSTEM. THE ERROR FREQUENCY HAS INCREASED.
PARASITIC POWER DRAW ON SYSTEM RESULTING IN DEAD BATTERY IF NOT DRIVEN EVERY OTHER DAY. HONDA IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL.
CENTER CONSOLE UNIT REFUSES TO DIM UNDER ANY LIGHTING CONDITIONS. ATTEMPTING TO MANUALLY DIM IT RESULTS IN MOMENTARY DIMMING AND THEN RETURN TO FULL BRIGHTNESS. THIS MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SEE AT NIGHT AND REQUIRES THAT I SHUT OFF THE CENTER UNIT COMPLETELY IN ORDER TO DRIVE SAFELY. ACCORDING TO HONDA THIS IS A KNOWN SOFTWARE ISSUE ON THE WHOLE RANGE OF 5TH GEN CRVS BUT THEY HAVE NOT ISSUED ANY FIXES.
1. VEHICLE INAPPROPRIATELY BRAKED TO A FULL STOP FOR NO APPARENT REASON. VEHICLE MOVING AT SLOW SPEED BOTH TIMES. OCCURRED IN JULY 2019 AND JAN 2021 INFORMED DEALER BOTH TIMES. VEHICLE INSPECTED AFTER THE FIRST TIME AND INDICATED SYSTEM IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED BUT ALARMING THAT AN ACCIDENT COULD HAVE EASILY HAPPENED IF THERE WAS A CAR BEHIND US. 2. NO LONGER USING CRUISE CONTROL BECAUSE CAR INAPPROPRIATELY BRAKES. THE CAR HAS SLOWED DOWN ENOUGH WHERE WE HAD TO PRESS THE GAS TO AVOID A COLLISION ON THE HIGHWAY. THE BRAKING OCCURRED WHEN THERE WAS MORE THAN ENOUGH DISTANCE BETWEEN OUR VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE IN FRONT. WE DID NOT NOTIFY THE DEALER OR THIS ISSUE BECAUSE WE ASSUMED IT WAS A DESIGN ISSUE AND COULD NOT BE FIXED BY A TECHNICIAN. 3. ON THE HIGHWAY, PASSING CERTAIN EXITS TRIGGERS THE LANE DEPARTURE WARNING, FORCING THE CAR TO BRAKE. WE HAVE TO PRESS ON THE GAS IN ORDER TO DRIVE SAFELY THROUGH THE TROUBLE SPOTS TO AVOID BEING REAR ENDED. WE HAVE GOTTEN TO KNOW CERTAIN EXITS BECAUSE THERE IS A CONCERN THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN UNEXPECTEDLY AS WE DRIVE NEW ROADS. WE VERBALLY COMMUNICATED THIS TO HONDA CORPORATE AND THE DEALER IN JAN 2021, AND THE RESPONSE WAS THAT THIS IS EXPECTED BEHAVIOR AND TO SEE THE MANUAL FOR LIMITATIONS OF THE SYSTEM. I DID RECEIVE CONFIRMATION THAT OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS CONCERN AS WELL. THE SAFETY FEATURES HAVE TRIGGERED ENOUGH FALSE POSITIVES FOR US THAT WE NO LONGER DRIVE THIS CAR WITH THE FAMILY AND ONLY WHEN NEEDED. SINCE WE HAVE OBSERVED OTHER REPORTS NOTING THE EXACT SAME ISSUES, WE ARE ASSUMING THAT THERE IS A TREND AND OTHERS SHARE THE SAME SAFETY CONCERNS.
FOR 2 DAYS (FRI/SAT) WHEN REMOTELY LOCKING DOORS, THE DOORS WOULD LOCK BUT THERE WAS NO LIGHTS OR BEEP INDICATING THE DOORS WERE LOCKING. CHECKED MENUS TO ENSURE THE FEATURE WAS ON, IT WAS. ON SUNDAY, STOPPED FOR FUEL, FUELED UP, VEHICLE WOULD NOT START WHILE AT THE PUMPS. CLICKING NOISE AND MULTIPLE LIGHTS ON DASH. ERROR MESSAGES: "ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM", "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM", "TIRE PRESSURE LOW" AMONG OTHERS APPEARED. I COULD NOT DEACTIVATE THE PARKING BRAKE. QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWED A JUMP START WOULD REMEDY THE SITUATION, WHICH IT DID. REPLACED ORIGINAL BATTERY (3 YEARS OLD) HOWEVER, WHEN REMOTELY LOCKING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE LIGHTS ARE STILL NOT FLASHING AND NO BEEP IS HEARD. WILL BE MAKING APPOINTMENT AT DEALERSHIP, BUT BASED ON PAST PERFORMANCES OF DEALERSHIPS, NOT HOPEFUL A CAUSE OR SOLUTION WILL BE FOUND. I HAVE FOUND HONDA DEALERSHIPS ARE QUICK TO POINT BLAME TO THE DRIVER FOR AN ISSUE.
THE CAR INAPPROPRIATELY BRAKED, FULL STOP, TWO TIMES. THE LAST EVENT OCCURRED ON JAN 9, 2021. WE REPORTED BOTH INCIDENTS TO THE DEALER. THE CAR WAS INSPECTED AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT IN JULY 2019, AND THE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT REPLICATE. WE WERE INFORMED THE CAR IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THE SECOND DISCUSSION WITH THE DEALER (JAN 11, 2021) RESULTED IN THE RECOMMENDATION OF ADJUSTING THE SENSOR LENGTH UNDER CUSTOMIZE FEATURES. IT WAS DESCRIBED AS A POSSIBLE IMPROVEMENT BUT NOT A GUARANTEE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. WE WILL MAKE THE ADJUSTMENT TONIGHT. BOTH OCCASIONS, THE STOP OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AT SLOW SPEEDS WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, AND LUCKILY NO ONE BEHIND. IT WAS ALARMING THAT A SAFETY FEATURE COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. HONDA CORPORATE'S RESPONSE WAS THAT THE SYSTEM IS WORKING AS DESIGNED AND SEE THE MANUAL FOR THE LIMITATIONS. WE NO LONGER USE THE CAR FOR THE FAMILY.
SHIFT KNOB BROKE OFF WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT FROM PARK TO REVERSE. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR ISSUE HAD IT BROKE WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE, OR SOME OTHER COMBINATION.
MY VEHICLE, A 2017 HONDA CRV EX-L HAS A 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE WITH APPROXIMATELY 148,000 MILES ON IT. IT HAS BEEN METICULOUSLY MAINTAINED WITH REGULAR FLUID AND OIL CHANGES. SEVERAL DAYS AGO MY CRV BEGAN LURCHING WITH A MISFIRE, FIRST THE POWER WAS GREATLY REDUCED AND THEN THE ENGINE LOST ALL POWER AND A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND THEN ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON. I HAVE ON OCCASION SMELLED A GAS TYPE SMELL IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. A FRIEND HAS A OBD11 READER AND MY ENGINE SHOWED A P 0304 CODE WHICH IS A CYLINDER 4 MISFIRE AND A P 2097 CODE WHICH IS A POST CATALYTIC CONVERTER TOO RICH WARNING. I HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO LUTE RILEY HONDA IN RICHARDSON, TX AND A WARRANTY SERVICE WAS PERFORMED THAT I UNDERSTAND IS A RESETTING OF ENGINE CODES AND A HVAC CONTROL UNIT WAS REPLACED. UPON PICKING THE VEHICLE UP AFTER DRIVING JUST A FEW MILES THE ENGINE LURCHING RETURNED AND ULTIMATELY THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND POWER WAS REDUCED TO ABOUT 10 MILES PER HOUR. THIS HAPPENED IN AN INTERSECTION AND WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF AND STOP THE ENGINE. AFTER WAITING A FEW MINUTES I RESTARTED THE ENGINE AND WITH NO ENGINE LIGHT ON DROVE VERY SLOWLY TO MY HOME. I PLAN ON TAKING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER IN THE MORNING.
ONGOING INTERMITTENT ISSUES SINCE CAR WAS PURCHASED MAY 2017. REPEATED BATTERY DRAINS AND COMPLETE FAILURE, BATTERY REPLACED BY HONDA JULY 2020. DROVE, PARKED, WOULD NOT START OR RUN ACCESSORIES NOV. 30 2020 AND ON JAN. 1 2021 WHEN TOW SERVICE STATED BATTERY AT 9.4 VOLTS 74 AMPS. IT HAD BEEN DRIVEN WEEKLY. INTERMITTENT ERROR MESSAGES AND RANDOM FLASHING/SCRAMBLED DASHBOARD MESSAGE LIGHTS. INTERMITTENT FAILURE TO LOCK/UNLOCK OR REMAIN LOCKED. BATTERY IN KEY FOB REPLACED AND KEY FOB REPLACED. WE ARE VERY CONSCIOUS OF LOCKING CAR. ONCE I HEARD IT UNLOCK AND SAW LIGHTS FLASH WHILE I WAS IN FRONT YARD WITHOUT HAVING THE KEY FOB ON MY PERSON. AS ADDITIONAL PRECAUTION SET-UP THE "AUTOMATIC LOCK" FUNCTION BUT WE DO NOT DEPEND UPON THIS. THE POSSIBILITY OF AN ALARM FAILURE WITH 2 ATTEMPTS AT TAKING THINGS IN/ON THE CAR AND NO ALARM (ONE TIME CAR FOUND UNLOCKED WITH GLOVE BOX DUMPED, ETC.).
AFTER A 30 MINUTE DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY I STOPPED FOR AROUND 15 MINUTES AND WHEN I STARTED THE ENGINE THE DASH BOARD WOULD NOT LIGHT UP ALL LIGHTS WERE OFF, ALTHOUGH THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. THE INDICATORS WERE NOT WORKING AND THE SCREEN INSIDE THE CAR ALSO STOPPED WORKING. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE TRUNK COULD NOT OPEN. THIS FIRST HAPPENED WHEN THE CAT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY (AROUND 6000 MILES ON IT), THE DEALER SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM, BUT THEY HAD TO DO A "HARD RESET" TO GET THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS BACK ON. TWO YEARS AFTER THE SAME THING HAPPENED ( CAR NOW HAS AROUND 12000 MILES), BUT THE LIGHTS WENT BACK ON WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR. ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE GETTING INTO THE CAR, ALL THE WINDOWS WENT DOWN HALF WAY ON THEIR OWN AFTER I OPENED THE DOOR WITH THE REMOTE.
MY CAR WAS SITTING ON DRIVEWAY AND WHEN I START MY CAR ALL OF THE SUDDEN IT START GIVING ME BREAK SYSTEM ERROR PROBLEM. SO MY CAR AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE AND NOW IT'S NOT RELEASING AT ALL . ALSO DELAR TOLD ME IT HAPPENED BECAUSE OF BRAKE ACTUATOR MALFUNCTION. ALSO, WHEN I AM DRIVING SOME TIME IT APPLIED EMERGENCY BRAKE ITSELF IF THERE IS NOTHING IN FRONT OF CAR. AND THERE ARE MANY OTHER HONDA CR-V 2017 MODE THAT HAVE SAME PROBLEM OR SIMILAR PROBLEM. AND VEHICLE IS NOW OUT OF WARRANTY SO DEALERSHIP WANT TO CHARGE FOR PARTS AND LABOR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE BRAKES MALFUNCTIONED INDEPENDENTLY, WHILE SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENTAL PANEL. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO NORTHTOWN HONDA (2277 NIAGARA FALLS BLVD, AMHERST, NY 14228) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST MODULATOR NEED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED FOUR TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.
THE BATTERY DIES FREQUENTLY FOR NO REASON AFTER NOT DRIVING FOR ONE TO TWO DAYS. WHEN THE BATTERY DIES, IT LOCKS UP THE BRAKES AND MESSES UP THE SAFETY FEATURES.
I WAS DRIVING DOWN A CITY STREET SOON AFTER A STOP SIGN SO MAYBE GOING LESS THAN 10-15 MPH. ALL OF A SUDDEN WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM SLAMMED THE CAR TO A COMPLETE STOP. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE BEHIND ME OR THERE MAY HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT RODENTS WERE ABLE TO ENTER THE CABIN AIR FILTER AREA, AND WHEN THE CONTACT TURNED THE HEATER ON, THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO SMELL A STRONG ODOR. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO REMOVE THE CABIN AIR FILTER LOCATED AT THE VEHICLE GLOVE COMPARTMENT AND FOUND THE DEAD RODENT NEST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.
BATTERY WILL BE DEAD IF CAR NOT USED EVERY 2 DAYS. 4 TIMES I HAVE HAD THE DEALER REPLACE MY BATTERY AND 1 TIME MYSELF. DEALER REFUSES TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM. A VEHICLE''S BATTERY SHOULD NOT GO DEAD AFTER ONLY 4 DAYS OF USE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REVERSING INTO THE GARAGE AND ATTEMPTING TO STOP THE VEHICLE, THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON DETACHED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER SOME RESEARCH, SHE LEARNED THAT THE DETACHING OF THE GEAR SHIFTER BUTTON WAS A COMMON FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.
HONDA 2017 CRV, BATTERY IS DEAD IF I DON'T DRIVE IT FOR 2 DAYS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES IN THE PAST YEAR, THE LAST TWO TIMES JUST A FEW WEEKS APART. AND THIS PAST TIME I DROVE IT ON A THURSDAY AND IT WAS DEAD ON SATURDAY. FORTUNATELY THE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED THE CAR WAS IN THE GARAGE, SO I WAS NOT STRANDED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY RAN DIAGNOSTICS AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. THEY JUST SAID I NEED TO DRIVE IT EVERY COUPLE OF DAYS. AFTER DOING RESEARCH ONLINE I SEE MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THERE MIGHT BE A SOFTWARE FIX AT SOME POINT.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 50MPH THE GEAR BUTTON FOR SHIFTER CAME OFF. LUCKILY IT LANDED IN THE CUP HOLDER OTHERWISE, I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO PUT INTO PARK ONCE STOPPED AS IT WOULD HAVE BEEN STILL BE IN DRIVE. I WAS ABLE TO TEMPORARILY PUT IT BACK IN PLACE SO THAT I COULD PUT INTO PARK. VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS WHILE DRIVING HOME ON THE HIGHWAY.
MY VEHICLE IS A 2017 HONDA CR-V TOURING WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. TODAY WHILE BACKING OUT OF A PARKING PLACE IN A STORE PARKING LOT, I PUSHED IN ON THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON AND MOVED THE SHIFT LEVER INTO REVERSE. WHEN I REMOVED MY THUMB FROM THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON, THE BUTTON HAD CLEARLY BROKEN ON THE INSIDE OF THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER, AS WHEN I REMOVED MY THUMB, THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON BUTTON EJECTED FROM THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER (IT IS SPRING LOADED). THIS LEFT ME BLOCKING TRAFFIC AFTER HAVING BACKED OUT. I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO DRIVE, BY SIMPLY PULLING DOWN ON THE GEAR SHIFTER. HOWEVER ONCE THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE, IT COULD NO LONGER BE SHIFTED INTO PARK OR REVERSE WITHOUT THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON (WHICH WAS NOW ON THE FLOOR AT MY FEET ON THE DRIVERS SIDE) THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND ENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE SO I COULD FIND THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON ON THE FLOOR. THIS ALLOWED ME TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE (KEEPING ONE HAND ON THE SHIFTER TO AVOID THE BUTTON EJECTING AGAIN) HOWEVER A LESS EXPERIENCED DRIVER MAY BECOME FLUSTERED, AND LOOSE ATTENTION CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I WAS FORTUNATE THE OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME WERE PATIENT AND NOT APPROACHING QUICKLY. ALL DRIVERS WILL BE EXPECTING THIS BUTTON TO FUNCTION PROPERLY, AND IT IS DISCONCERTING THAT A VEHICLE THAT IS ONLY THREE YEARS AND THREE MONTHS OLD WOULD HAVE SUCH A FAILURE. AFTER RESEARCHING THE PART ON LINE, I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER FOLKS REPORTING THIS PART FAILING, AND ALMOST ALL FROM THE 2017 MODEL YEAR. BEING UNABLE TO SHIFT A VEHICLE IS A MAJOR FLAW, AND THIS PART SHOULD BE ADDRESSED.
MY MIRROR TURN SIGNAL AND LEFT FRONT TURN SIGNAL FLASHES RANDOMLY ON ITS OWN. SEVERAL TIMES IN A 24 HOUR PERIOD. THE LEFT BACK TURN SIGNAL DOES NOT. I SMELL SOME TYPE OF ELECTRICAL BURNING FUMES FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF THE CAR NEXT TO THE HOOD WHERE IT COMES TO WINDSHIELD. THIS IS VERY DISTRACTING AS IT IS HAPPENING RANDOMLY AND OFTEN. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED , UNATTENDED, AND IN THE OFF POSITION. ALL TIMES OF THE DAY AND NIGHT. ALSO, WHILE DRIVING MY TOUCH SCREEN SYSTEM WILL RANDOMLY SWITCH THE BRIGHTNESS AND CHANGE FROM NAV TO PHONE TO RADIO ECT ALL BY ITSELF, IT IS DISTRACTING TO THE DRIVER. .
ON THE 4TH (AROUND 20K MILES) OIL CHANGE FROM DEALERSHIP I COMPLAINED ABOUT DRIVER SIDE SEAT CUSHION AND BRAKE PEDAL MAKING SQUEAKY NOISE. I WAS TOLD IT'S NORMAL IN NEW CAR DURING THE BREAKIN PROCESS AND EVENTUALLY IT'LL GO AWAY. NOW IT'S EVEN WORSE AT ABOVE 50K MILES AND THEY'RE ASKING FOR DIAGNOSTIC CHARGES. CAR ALSO HAS FUEL AND OIL MIXING ISSUE WHICH I BROUGHT IT UP ON MY RECENT VISIT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AND I WAS TOLD THEY'LL NEED TO DRAIN THE OIL AND REFILL WITH NEW OIL AND FILTER TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. WHILE THEY WERE TAKING OUT THEY SAID THERE WAS NO PRESENCE OF FUEL BUT THE SMELL OF FUEL IN ENGINE OIL IS NORMAL FOR THIS VEHICLE. THERE'S BEEN TIME WHERE VEHICLE WILL BE STUCK IN HIGH RPM WHEN ON HIGHWAY AND ACCELERATOR IS RELEASED DURING HIGH SPEED. AND EVENTUALLY IT'LL SHIFT THE GEAR AFTER 5-10 SECONDS AND BRING DOWN THE RPM. SMELL IS ALSO NOTICED DURING FIRST START IN MORNINGS SPECIALLY NOW SINCE IT'S WINTER.
CAR WAS SITTING IN PARKING LOT AND WAS NOT ABLE TO START AND THE CONTROL PANEL SHOWS BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM
WHENEVER THERE IS RAIN OR DEW MOST OF THE CAR'A SENSORS WILL MALFUNCTION. THE BRAKE SENSOR ARE ALL BAD, POWER STEERING, LOW OIL AND LOW TIRE PRESSURE. IT WILL HAPPEN SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING AND WHEN IN PARK TOO.
THE CAR APPLIED THE BRAKES VIGOROUSLY WHILE DRIVING 55-MILES PER HOUR ON A RURAL STRAIGHT 2-LANE HIGHWAY WITH NO OTHER CARS IN SIGHT. THE ONLY UNSAFE CONDITION WAS THE UNANTICIPATED BRAKING OF OUR VEHICLE. I SUSPECT THE CULPRIT TO BE THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE INVOLVED. I CONTINUED DRIVING AFTER THIS HAPPENED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START-UP. THE START SYSTEM WAS ILLUMINATED AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 41,000.
I OWN THE CAR FOR 3 YEARS AND 10 MONTH AND DID NOT NOTICE ANY ISSUE WITH THE BREAKING SYSTEM UNTIL TODAY ON 10/15/2020. MY BROTHER WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND THE CAR ALL OF SUDDEN STOP COMPLETELY WHEN START SLOWLY PRESSING THE ON BRAKE PEDAL. HE WAS APPROACHING A BUMP WITH STEEL PLATE COVERING THE GAP ON A BRIDGE AND START TO SLOW DOWN TO 25MPH AND THE CAR SUDDEN BREAK HARD AND STOP COMPLETELY CAUSING HIM AND THE PASSENGER TO SHOVEL FORWARD. HE THEN HEARD TWO BEEPS. THERE WASN'T ANY CAR IN A CLOSE RANGE. AFTER ABOUT 5 SECONDS, HE CAN THEN ABLE TO STEP ON THE GAS PEDAL. SOUND LIKE SOME ISSUE WITH THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING TECHNOLOGY.
I LISTED THIS UNDER POWER TRAIN SINCE I LOST POWER AND I DON'T KNOW WHAT OTHER CATEGORY WOULD APPLY. I HAVE NO DOCUMENTS EXCEPT THE DEALER'S REPORT THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG EXCEPT A WEAK BATTERY.
I COULD'VE NOT COAX MY CAR OVER 20 MPH IT WAS SCARY SINCE A SPEEDING CAR WAS BEHIND ME
SHIFT LEVER LOCK RELEASE PUSH-BUTTON BROKE OFF. LEARNED THIS WAS SUBJECT OF A SERVICE BULLETIN (19-063) BUT IT'S A PRETTY SIGNIFICANT ISSUE AS THE DRIVER CANNOT MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER IN OR OUT OF PARK/REVERSE/DRIVE WITHOUT THE BUTTON. SHOULD THIS BUTTON HAVE BROKE OFF AND NOT BEEN IN HAND IT WOULD HAVE BEEN IMPOSSIBLE TO MOVE THE SHIFT LEVER INTO PARK WHILE THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. IMHO THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM, NOT JUST A "PRODUCT UPDATE" AS HONDA HAS CALLED IT.
1- FOR THE ENGINE, I CAN SMELL STRONG FUEL INSIDE THE CAR CABINET. THE SMELL SOMETIMES IS SO STRONG THAT I GET DIZZY AND I NEED TO OPEN THE WINDOW TILL THE CAR WARM UP. HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION, AND STATIONARY 2- FOR THE SEAT BUILT, THE HOOK MAKES HUGE NOISE, AND SOMETIMES WHILE HARD BREAKING GETS LOSE AND LEFT ME UNBUCKLED. YOU CAN HEAR THE NOISE WHILE STATIONARY AND THE BELT GET'S LOSE WHILE BRAKING TO A FULL STOP.
BATTERY RUNS DOWN. PUT NEW BATTERY...SAME PROBLEM. NEED A JUMP TO START FOR ME TO DRIVE. BATTERY RUNS DOWN IF IT SITS FOR A DAY PROBLEM STEERING AFTER IT IS JUMPED. ALL ALERTS ARE ON THEN DISAPPEARS AFTER BATTERY RESETS COMPONENTS ON ITS OWN. ALERTS FOR STABILIZATION, BREAKING STABILIZATION AND MORE TURNS ON WHEN DRIVING. WENT OVER PROBLEMS WITH A FRIEND WHO IS A MECHANIC. TROUBLE SHOOTING EVERYTHING AND CONCLUDING SOMETHING IN ELECTRICAL THAT DOESN'T TURN OFF AND RUNS NEW BATTERY DOWN WHEN ENGINE IS OFF. OIL CAP SMELLS LIKE GAS FUEL. HONDA MECHANIC TOLD ME ON THE SPOT IT COULD BE THIS OR THAT EVEN WHEN I SAID THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH THAT NOTED ON WEBSITES. CAR AT HONDA DEALERSHIP GETTING "FIXED"....TOLD ME IT IS THE ALTERNATOR, BUT CAR ENGINE DOESN'T STOP OR SHUTS OFF WHEN IT IS JUMPED AND DRIVEN. WE ALSO HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WHERE THE ALERT WARNING ALARM TURNING ON WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY INDICATING THERE IS AN OBJECT IN FRONT OR SIDE WHEN THERE IS NOTHING THERE. THOSE ISSUES BEGAN HAPPENING BEFORE I HAD THESE RECENT BATTERY PROBLEMS (6 MONTHS BEFORE ISSUES WITH THE BATTERY). I ALSO RECALL THAT IN THE FALL OF 2018 THAT THE OBJECT ALERT TURNED ON A COUPLE OF TIMES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. MY DAUGHTER ALSO HAS EXPERIENCE THIS WHILE DRIVING BOTH HIGHWAY AND TOWN STREET. MECHANIC FROM HONDA IS NOT ADDRESSING THE SMELL OF GAS IN OIL CAP EVEN WITH INFORMATION I TOLD HIM ABOUT THIS PROBLEM NOTED WITH PREVIOUS CUSTOMERS. HASN'T LOOKED INTO IT SINCE MY CAR HAS BEEN THERE FOR A DAY AND HALF.
THE DRIVER SAFETY ASSISTANCE SYSTEM DISPLAYS A SERIES OF FAILURE NOTIFICATIONS ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY. INCLUDES BUT NOT LIMITED TO LANE DRIFT, REAR COLLISION ALERT, PARKING BRAKE, CRUISE CONTROL AND NUMEROUS OTHERS. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES WHILE IN MOTION OR WHEN PARKED. POHANKA HONDA HAS ATTEMPTED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM 3 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. ONCE 3 WEEKS AGO AND THE LAST EFFORT WAS 12 HOURS AGO. CAR IS STILL NOT FIXED. AN INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THIS BEING A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT HONDA HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIX. I HAVE RECEIPTS FOR ALL REPAIRS BUT UNABLE TO UPLOAD.*DT*AS
ALL SYSTEM WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED IN DASHBOARD DISPLAY. FIRST FAILURE HAPPENED 12/16/19 WHILE PARKED WITH ENGINE RUNNING. SECOND FAILURE HAPPENED 9/10/20 WHILE DRIVING.

SOMETIMES CAR CAN'T START, A LOT OF TIME, WHEN I START THE CAR PUT ON R, THE CAR DOESN'T MOVE BACK, IT MOVES FORWARDS.

I AFRAID OF USING THIS VEHICLE, BECAUSE YOU DONT KNOW WHATS GOING TO HAPPEN.
WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY ON A ROAD ABOUT 30 MPH ALL OF THE VEHICLE'S WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON IN A SEQUENCE AND CONTINUED TO ROTATE THROUGH THE ENTIRE ARRAY OF WARNING LIGHTS CONTINUOUSLY. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO DRIVE NORMALLY. AFTER STOPPING AND TURNING OFF THE CAR WE RESTARTED THE CAR AND THE WARNING LIGHTS CONTINUED TO FLASH AND BEEP IN SEQUENCE. THE HONDA DEALER SAID WE NEEDED TO REPLACE PARTS IN THE FUEL SYSTEM. AFTER INVESTIGATION THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH HONDA VEHICLES. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AS IT DISTRACTS THE DRIVER
EMERGENCY CRASH AVOIDANCE SYSTEM DEPLOYED CAUSING THE CAR TO STOP. THIS FROM 35 + MPH. THIS WAS UNEXPECTED. AND WE WERE LUCKY NO OTHER CARS WERE AFFECTED. AUTOMATIC HEADLIGHT DIMMER IS NOT OPERATING CORRECTLY. THIS IS ANNOYANCE TO THE DRIVER OF MY CAR AS WELL AS BLINDING TO ONCOMING TRAFIC.
I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE 1 YR AND A FEW MONTHS AND HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE COMPUTER SYSTEM WIPED OUT AND THE SOFTWARE REINSTALLED MORE THAN 2X DUE TO 'PROBLEM' DASH LIGHTS ALL OF THE SUDDEN SCROLLING;ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ELECTRIC BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM, EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM, ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, POWER STEERING SYSTEM PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, ECT. THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FENDER BENDER IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THIS CHAOS, BUT THE PROBLEMS STARTED SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT IT IN MAY2019. AT ONE TIME THE COMPUTER WOULD CLEAR ITSELF OUT AND I COULD RIDE AROUND FOR A DAY OR TWO WITHOUT ALL THESE LIGHTS FLASHING. THAT IS NO LONGER THE CASE. THESE SCROLLING PROBLEM LIGHTS OCCUR AFTER I'VE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD BUT NOW THEY COME ON IMMEDIATELY WHEN I TURN ON THE VEHICLE. PRIOR TO THIS AND MONTHS AGO, WHEN I WAS ROUNDING A CORNER ON THE FREEWAY ALL THE SUDDEN THE BRAKE ASSIST ENGAGED AS IF I WAS TOO CLOSE TO A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. IT WAS QUITE A JOLT. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED WAS OCTOBER/NOVEMBER. 2019. THIS EVENING I GOT MY OIL CHANGED AND THE MECHANIC FOUND GAS IN MY OIL; I MENTIONED A GAS ODOR LAST WINTER TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR OIL CHANGE. THEY BASICALLY BLEW IT OFF. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT NOW. IN FACT I EVEN SAVED SOME OF THE OIL THAT CAME OUT OF THE ENGINE TO SHOW MY HUSBAND WHEN HE GETS HOME. I HAVE USED TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS THUS FAR BECAUSE OF WORKMANSHIP ISSUES AT THE FIRST DEALERSHIP. NOW DEALERSHIP NUMBER TWO DOES NOT EVEN WANT TO TOUCH MY VEHICLE.
BATTERY DIED OVERNIGHT, TOOK VEHICLE TO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS, REPLACED BATTERY.. NOTHING HELP ! TECHNICIAN CANNOT FIGURE OUT WHY.. THIS IS MY SECOND VEHICLE BOUGHT FROM HONDA , THIS TIME I'M REALLY DISAPPOINTED..
I WAS PARKING UN MY JOB PARKING LOT. WHEN WAS LUNCH TIME Y WHEN'RE MY CAR TO EAT LUNCH I TRIED TO START THE ENGINE TO PLAY MUSIC AND TO TURN IN THE AC . AND THE MESSAGE THE SYSTEM IS BROKEN APPEARS AND THE LIGHTS WHERE FLASHING THEN THE CAR DIED . LATER AT THE END OF THE DAY I CALL SOMEBODY TO HELP ME TO CHANGE THE BATTERY BUT THE BATTERY WAS FINE . WAS JUST THE CAR
THE SUNROOF SPONTANEOUSLY EXPLODED AS I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THERE WAS A LOUD POP NOISE WHEN IT HAPPENED BUT NOTHING HIT THE CAR AND THE CAR WAS GOING STRAIGHT ON A ROAD THAT WAS IN GOOD CONDITION.
CARE HAS BEEN TO DEALER 4 TIMES FOR IDIOT MESSAGES RANDOMLY APPEARING ON THE DASH; PANIC ALARM GOING OFF FOR NO REASON; DEAD BATTERY FOR 3 MORNINGS IN A ROW AND NOW ON THE 4TH DAY IT WILL NOT ACCEPT A JUMP.
I I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ON THE STREET AND WENT TO SHIFT FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE TO BACK INTO A DRIVEWAY AND REALIZED MY "SHIFT BUTTON" THAT YOU DEPRESS TO CHANGES GEARS WAS NO LONGER THERE ATTACHED AND HAD FALLEN DOWN AND LANDED ON MY CONSOLE. IT BROKE OFF WHILE IN DRIVE WITHOUT NOTICE AND FELL AWAY. I HAD TO MANEUVER IT BACK IN PLACE SO I COULD SHIFT TO REVERSE AND MOVE CAR OFF THE ROADWAY.
THIS VEHICLE HAS THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE BRAKE WARNING HAS FLASHED WHEN THERE IS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR. THIS HAS EVEN HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE AT HIGH SPEEDS. MORE RECENTLY LAST WEEK WHEN DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET WITH NO OTHER CARS ON THAT ROAD AND NO PARKED CARS THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY HARD BRAKED WITH NO WARNING. THE WEATHER AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS A PARTLY CLOUDY DAY. AT THE TIME THE CAR HARD BRAKED I WAS ON A FLAT ROAD GOING ABOUT 25 MPH DRIVING STRAIGHT. HAD THERE BEEN A CAR BEHIND ME WHEN THE AUTONOMOUS BRAKE HARD BRAKED I FEAR I WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED.
WINDSHIELD CRACKED FOR NO REASON , NO ANY VISIBLE CHIPS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE COASTING DOWNHILL, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON APPROACHING A STOP SIGN, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT DISAPPEARED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL TO THE FLOORBOARD, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESPOND WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO BEND HONDA LOCATED AT 2225 NE HWY 20, BEND, OR 97701, (541)797-2054, WHERE THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,500.
THREE ISSUES - 1 - THE KNOB ON MY SHIFT BROKE AND POPPED OFF. THE PLASTIC BROKE, AND RENDERED THE BUTTON USELESS. 2 - THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WORKS INTERMITTENTLY. DOES NOT SEEM TO BE IMPACTED BY WEIGHT, BUT THE LIGHT COMES ON SOMETIMES OTHER TIMES IT DOES NOT. 3 - THE SIDE PANEL OF THE SEAT THAT HOLDS THE ELECTRONICS FOR THE SEAT POPPED OFF AND DOES NOT GO BACK ON. ANOTHER JUNK PIECE OF PLASTIC. THIS HAS CAUSED THE SEAT TO ADJUST UNEXPECTEDLY.
THE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO WILL GO DARK SOMETIMES, BUT ALSO IT WILL SHOW THE BRIGHTNESS DISPLAY AND TURN THE SCREEN BRIGHTNESS ALL THE WAY UP AT NIGHT WHILE I'M DRIVING. IT REALLY BOTHERS ME AND IS DANGEROUS, I HAVE TO PULL OVER FROM DRIVING AND TURN IT BACK DOWN, AND SOMETIMES THE TOUCH SCREEN WONT WORK! THE VOLUME TURNS UP ON IT'S OWN, THE WHOLE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO IS REALLY MESSED UP. I JUST SIGNED FOR THIS CAR AND IT ONLY HAS 36,000 MILES ON IT! I'VE READ MANY OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS TOO, IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON SHATTERED INTO SMALL PLASTIC PIECES, MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SHIFT GEARS. THE PROBLEM STARTED WHILE PARKED WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT INTO DRIVE.
WHILE I WAS DRIVING A LIGHTING ON MY DASH BROAD CAME ON AND MY CAR STARTED TO MAKE DRIVE FUNNY. I HAD PULLED OVER AND LOOKED IN THE MANUAL TO SEE WHAT THE SYMBOL STANDS FOR. IT STATED, SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND ADVISE ME TO TURN MY SUV OFF AND WAIT. I WAITED FOR TEN MINUTES, WHEN I TURN ON THE CAR ALL THE LIGHTS WHERE FLASHING ON THE DASH BROAD, THE RADIO HAD CAME ON BUT THE WINDOWS WON'T ROLL DOWN. I WAITED FOR 15 MINUTES THE CAR WON'T START AND ALL THE LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING ON THE DASH BROAD. I RECEIVED A JUMP BUT MY CAR WAS STILL DOING THE SAME THING. I HAD TO BUY A NEW CAR BATTERY BUT THAT ONE IN AND ONCE I STARTED THE CAR ALL THE LIGHTS ON THE DASH BROAD CAME ON AGAIN AND TURNED OFF ONCE I STARTED TO DRIVE MY CAR. OCCASIONALLY, IT HAPPENS EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE. TONIGHT AFTER WORK I PUT MY CAR IN DRIVE THE [XXX] BUTTON ON THE HANDLE CAME OFF!!!!

I WAS DRIVING WITH THE TOURING SYSTEM ON THAT KEEPS THE VEHICLE BETWEEN LINES, WHEN SUDDENLY STARTED RAINING AND THE CAR DID A COMPLETE TURN OF THE WHEEL MAKING THE CAR GO CRAZY AND SPINNING ABOUT 3 TIMES WHILE IN THE HIGHWAY
LEAKY COMPRESSOR AND DISCHARGE HOSE WITHIN 4 YEARS, SUGGESTING DEFECTIVE DESIGN/MANUFACTURING, POSSIBLY DUE TO TRANSITION TO 1234YF REFRIGERANT. THIS REFRIGERANT BEING FLAMMABLE AND MORE HAZARDOUS & FLAMMABLE THAN THE PREVIOUS R-134A REFRIGERANT, THIS LEAKAGE REPRESENTS A POSSIBLE SAFETY HAZARD (NOT JUST COMFORT) IS WORTH NOTING THAT THIS ISSUE APPEARED SO WIDESPREAD, THAT ONE DEALER SUGGESTED A 3 WEEK MINIMUM WAIT FOR THE PARTS. HONDA HAS ALREADY ISSUED AN A/C EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR A SIMILAR VEHICLE (HONDA CIVIC)
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HER HUSBAND WAS DRIVING 30 MPH, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHUDDER WITH SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED.

GAS TANK FILLER HAS A METAL DOOR APPROX 3 INCHES DOWN FILLER TUBE THAT ISN?T SEALING, GARAGE SMELLS OF STRONG GAS SMELL. VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY BUT DEAL REFUSES TO FIX. DEALER CLAIMS CUSTOMER MUST HAVE DRIVEN OFF WITH GAS HOSE STILL IN TANK. THIS IS NOT TRUE, BEEN DIFFICULT TO GET GAS INTO VEHICLE ALMOST SINCE IT WAS NEW, VEHICLE ONLY HAS 8,000 MILES. COMPLAINED TO DEALER, COMPLAINED TO MANUFACTURE, NOBODY CARES. SUSPECT FIRE DANGER. *TR
I OWN A 2017 HONDA CRV EXL MODEL. RECENTLY, THE SENSING DEVICE IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR (BELOW THE HONDA LOGO) GOT STOLEN FROM MY CAR. THIS SAFETY SENSOR ASSISTS THE DRIVER WITH FEATURES SUCH AS LANE KEEPING ASSISTANCE, LAND DEPARTURE WARNING, AUTOMATIC CRUISE CONTROL, ETC. I KNOW AT LEAST 5 MORE OWNERS FROM MY APARTMENT COMMUNITY WHOSE CAR'S SENSOR WAS STOLEN. ALL OF US HAVE FILED A POLICE COMPLAIN FOR THEFT. THE PROBLEM WHY I AM ASKING FOR ASSISTANCE IS THAT THE SENSOR CAN BE SO EASILY STOLEN THAT EVEN IF I GET IT FIXED, THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY THAT THE SENSOR CAN GET STOLEN AGAIN. ONE DOES NOT NEED ANY TOOL IS STEAL THE SENSOR. ANYONE CAN OPEN THAT PANEL IN A MINUTE AND WALK AWAY WITH AN IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE. IT'S THAT EASY. NONE OF US HEARD ANY ANTI THEFT ALARM BUZZING WHEN THE SENSOR WAS STOLEN. THIS IS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW AND HONDA SHOULD TAKE COMPLETE RESPONSIBILITY OF THIS DEBACLE AND THAT A PERMANENT SOLUTION SHOULD BE WORKED OUT BY HONDA SO THAT THE OWNERS DO NOT FACE THE ISSUE IN THE FUTURE. *TR
HONDA CRV 2017 SENSORS HAS BEEN STOLEN, WHICH RESULTED IN WARNINGS ON SCREEN TO LIGHT UP. TO MY SURPRISE, ANY ONE CAN EASILY TAKE THE SENSORS WITHOUT ANY TOOL KIT WITHIN SECONDS. MY MAJOR CONCERN IS EVEN IF I GET SENSORS REPLACED, THE SAME INCIDENT CAN HAPPEN EVEN IN NEAR FUTURE, NO OTHER BRANDS IN THIS SEGMENT HAS PUT SENSORS SO CONVENIENTLY TO GET STOLEN. MY QUESTION- IS IT NOT A DESIGN ISSUE, HONDA PLACES SENSORS SUCH A WAY ANY ONE CAN STOLE IT. *TR
GOING ON THIRD WINDSHIELD, FIRST ONE CRACKED LOWER LEFT CORNER. HAD IT REPLACED AND IT CRACKED IN IDENTICAL POSITION. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION BOTH TIMES, ON HIGHWAY CONDITIONS. *TR
EVER SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW, WHEN TURNING A CORNER ON CITY INTERSECTIONS, THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE, INTERMITTENTLY. I'VE BEEN AT THE DEALER, AND THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. RECENTLY I READ ABOUT A RECALL OF CRV'S FOR A FUEL PUMP PROBLEM. NOT BEING A MECHANIC, THIS SOUNDS LIKE MY PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY, HONDA DOES NOT HAVE THIS RECALL ON THEIR WEBSITE. ANY GUIDANCE YOU CAN GIVE WILL BE MOST WELCOME. SINCERELY, [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR
I HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS IN MY CAR WHEN IN MOTION. WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICE AT MY HONDA DEALER, I WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. ALSO ON 3/9/2020 THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE BATTERY(LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD) WAS DEAD AND WAS REPLACED BECAUSE THE CAR WAS STILL IN WARRANTY. THEN ON 6/13/2020 THE SECOND BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DEAD WITH ONLY 663 MILES.I THINK THE SITUATION SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND REMEDIED DUE TO CONCERN ABOUT SAFETY. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS TYPE OF THING WITH OTHER VEHICLES THAT I HAVE OWNED. *TR

2017 HONDA CRV LX. I PULLED OIL DIP STICK TO CHECK OIL AND IT SMELLED LIKE STRAIGHT GASOLINE. SO I UNSCREWED OIL CAP SAME THING. NO OIL SMELL JUST GAS. I THEN CONTACTED A LOCAL GARAGE IN MY AREA AND TOLD THEM ABOUT IT. THEY SAID THERE'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE NO GAS IN THE OIL. I THEN CONTACTED THE HONDA DEALER IN MY AREA AND THEY SCHEDULED ME AN APPOINTMENT BECAUSE THE MECHANIC I TALKED TO SAID THEIR SHOULDN'T BE GAS IN THE OIL. WHEN I ARRIVED TO MY APPOINTMENT THE MECHANIC I TALKED TO WASN'T WORKING AND THEY GAVE ME ANOTHER HONDA MECHANIC. I EXPLAINED MY CONCERN AND THE FIRST MECHANIC I TALKED TO CONCERNS AND WHAT HE SAID TO ME ON THE PHONE. THEY THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE GARAGE TO LOOK AT IT. THE MECHANIC CAME OUT AND SAID HE CHANGED THE OIL FOR US AND ASSURED ME THAT MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE THE GAS SMELL IN THE OIL BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY THE ENGINES WERE DESIGNED. I THEN TOLD HIM THAT I READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE TO HONDA AND IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE LOOKED INTO BY HONDA. HE SAID NEVER IN HIS CAREER HAS HE BIN WRONG ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I SAID WELL I WANT IT DOCUMENTED IN THE PAPERWORK THAT THE OIL SMELLS LIKE STRAIGHT GAS AND IF SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN TO THE VEHICLE THAT I WANTED IT FIXED IN FULL BY HONDA BECAUSE OF WHAT HE HAD SAID TO ME. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE TO HONDA. PEOPLE ARE HAVING TO PAY LOTS OF MONEY TO GET THEIR ENGINES FIXED OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT LOOK INTO IT AND FILE A RECALL. OUR VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY STILL AT THIS TIME WITH ONLY 35000 MILES AND NOTHING WAS DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. JUST SWEPT UNDER THE RUG SO WHEN IT KILLS THE ENGINE WE THE BUYERS ARE STUCK PAYING FOR IT. I HOPE SOMEONE ACTUALLY REVIEWS THIS AND TAKES ACTION. HONDA HAS ALREADY SAID THEY'D LOOK INTO IT BECAUSE THEY WERE FULLY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE. *TR
THE ENGINE OIL CONSTANTLY FILLS WITH GASOLINE, RAISING THE FLUID LEVEL MUCH, MUCH HIGHER THAN THE RECOMMENDED LEVELS ON THE DIPSTICK. THE OIL VISCOSITY IS ALSO CHANGED, WHICH WILL CAUSE UNDUE ENGINE WEAR AND TEAR. THERE IS ALSO A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE INSIDE OF THE CABIN, ESPECIALLY WHEN THE DEFROSTER IS ON. *TR
WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY ALL OF A SUDDEN THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN STARTED BEEPING AND CHANGING SCREENS, BRIGHTNESS DISPLAY KEPT COMING ON AND OFF WHILE THE DISPLAY UNIT IS BLINKING . IT CONTINUED TO CHANGE SCREENS FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN WENT BLACK. NOTHING. FINALLY I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF HIGHWAY AND TURNED CAR OFF. WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND TURNED CAR BACK ON AND THE SYSTEM WORKED FINE....FOR NOW. IN LOOKING IN WEB NOTICED THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT (LEMBERG LAW) REGARDING THIS SIMILAR ISSUE, ALONG WITH OTHERS OWNERS HAVING SAME ISSUE WITH NO PERMANENT FIX FROM HONDA.
THE SEAT BELT RETRACTOR FOR THE FRONT SEAT PASSENGER SIDE DOESN'T ALWAYS RELEASE TO EXTEND. *TR
RECALL: 17V256000, 17V442000, 18V663000. WHY WEREN'T THESE RECALLS LISTED ON YOUR WEBSITE. I PURCHASED A CAR WITH 3 RECALLS BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT LISTED ON YOUR SITE. *TR
CAR BATTERY WILL DIE IF THE CAR IS NOT USED FOR MORE THAN A COUPLE DAYS. WE HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET CHECKED MANY TIMES ONLY TO BE TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED MULTIPLE TIMES AS WELL ONLY FOR THE CAR TO DIE A FEW DAYS LATER. WE PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW IN MARCH 2017. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED IT WAS ONLY A FEW MONTHS INTO OWNING THE CAR. *TR
LIFT-GATE LATCH (WHICH IS MANUAL, NOT ELECTRIC) WILL NOT OPEN OR STICKS REQUIRING MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO OPEN. DEALER HAS ADVISED THAT THE LATCH IS DEFECTIVE. DEFECTIVE LATCH ONLY OBSERVED WHILE VEHICLE STATIONARY. WHEN DRIVING OVER SPEED BUMPS AT SLOW SPEEDS, THERE IS A CREAKING SOUND THAT COMES FROM THE LIFT-GATE LATCH. *TR
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
BATTERY KEEPS DYING AFTER 2 DAYS OF NON OPERATIONAL.THIS HAS HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES AND NO FIX FROM DEALER. *TR
AS OF MAY 13, I HAVE HAD TO RETURN MY LEASED 2017 CR-V TO THE DEALERSHIP FOUR (4) TIMES FOR THE SAME REASON - THE BATTERY WOULD NOT WORK , HENCE THE ENGINE DID NOT START. THESE BREAKDOWNS OCCURRED AT : 9573 MILES, 9993 MILES, 17315 MILES AND MOST RECENTLY 21,703 MILES. EACH EVENT OCCURRED WHILE THE AUTO WAS TURNED OFF. THIS HAS COST UNDUE HARDSHIP. WITH THE MOST RECENT EVENT, I WAS VERBALLY TOLD THE PROBLEM IS MY FAULT - SINCE I DO NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE ENOUGH !!! I SHOULD INVEST IN SOMETHING CALLED A " TRICKLE CHARGER " AND PLUG THE VEHICLE IN DURING THE EVENING HOURS !!! QUITE INCREDIBLE! I MORE THEN ONCE LOUDLY VOICED MY CONCERNS. THE BASIC ATTITUDE HAS BEEN " YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN BUDDY "!!! HOPEFULLY, THE DEALERSHIP WILL BE CAUTIONED TO AVOID FALSEHOODS AND TO LEVEL WITH ITS CUSTOMER. MY WIFE AND I ARE BOTH SENIOR CITIZENS . WE ARE ATTEMPTING TO NAVIGATE THE VIRUS EPIDEMIC AS BEST WE CAN! WE HAD TO DRIVE ANOTHER VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO PICK UP OUR " TAINTED " LEASED PRODUCT WITHOUT SO MUCH AS AN APOLOGY. QUITE INCREDIBLE ! MY COMPUTER IS QUITE ELDERLY - HENCE I CANNOT FORWARD DOCUMENTATION BUT I CAN CERTAINLY MAIL SUCH. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME FOR MUCH MORE INFORMATION CONCERNING THIS FAULTY PRODUCT. *TR
THE MAIN SCREEN INSIDE THE CAB STARTED BEEPING, THEN THE SCREEN WENT DARK AND THEN TO FULL BRIGHTNESS AND STARTED SCROLLING THROUGH THE MENU OPTIONS WITHOUT ME TOUCHING THE SCREEN. THIS WAS A BAD DISTRACTION WHILE I WAS DRIVING. THE SCREEN CONTROLS EVERYTHING AND WHEN IT DID THIS I HAD NO CONTROL AND LOST EVERYTHING. IT CONTINUED DOING THIS FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES.
WE HAVE A 2017 HONDA CR-V. ON APRIL 29, 2020, I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A CITY STREET GOING ABOUT 20-25 MILES PER HOUR. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES OR ANY OTHER OBSTACLE IN FRONT OF MY CAR. WITHOUT WARNING, AND ON ITS OWN, THE CAR'S ORANGE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND THE CAR WAS BROUGHT TO A HARD STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE ITEMS ON THE BACK SEAT WERE THROWN TO THE FLOOR AND WE WERE THROWN FORWARD IN OUR SEATS IN THE FRONT ENOUGH THAT THE SEAT BELTS ENGAGED. THIS WAS INSTANT AND THEN IMMEDIATELY THE CAR RESUMED TO NORMAL OPERATION. WE NOTIFIED THE DEALER AND THEY INDICATED THAT THEY HAD NOT HEAD OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE AND THAT HONDA DID NOT HAVE ANY RECALL FOR THIS YET. THIS WAS A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE - FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS BEHIND US, BUT SUPPOSE THERE HAD BEEN OR WE HAD BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY WITH MORE TRAFFIC AND LARGE TRUCKS.
2017 HONDA CRV PARKED IN GARAGE, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE DASH LIGHTS UP WARNINGS ON BRAKING SYSTEM, CRUISE CONTROL, LANE ASSIST, BATTERY AND MANY OTHER AREAS. CAR WOULD NOT START AND GOES DEAD WITH 3RD ATTEMPT TO START. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME I MUST HAVE CAR TOWED TO DEALERSHIP; CAR HAS 4,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THEY CANNOT RECREATE THIS INTERMITTENT CRITICAL FAILURE AND I SHOULD BUY A NEW CAR. THIS CAR IS UNRELIABLE AND A HAZARD. EVEN THOUGH I PAID THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS WHEN I BOUGHT IT NEW, FOR EXTRA EXTENDED WARRANTY, REPAIR & MAINTENANCE PLANS, DEALERSHIP TELL ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THIS CAR.
WE WERE TRAVELING DURING DAYLIGHT HOURS, TUESDAY, 4/28/2020, . OUR SPEED WAS 35 MPH. OUR HONDA CRV SUDDENLY CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP, THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN THE DASH AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. THERE WAS ABSOLUTELY NO TRAFFIC OR OBSTACLES OF ANY TYPE IN OUR PATH TO CAUSE THIS. THERE IS SOME TYPE OF FAULTY SENSOR CAUSING THIS AND IT NEEDS TO REPAIRED/REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP DENIES THAT A PROBLEM EXISTS. IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH CRV'S, 2017 & 2018 MODELS..
1. NUMEROUS PEOPLE INCLUDING MYSELF HAVE BEEN AFFECTED BY THIS CAR DRAINING A BRAND NEW BATTERY AND LEAVING PEOPLE STRANDED AND NEEDING A JUMPSTART. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN TO HAVE THIS ISSUE LOOKED AT, LAST TIME THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED A NEW BATTERY, NOW THEY CAN'T GIVE ME THAT SAME REASON SINCE MY BATTERY IS BRAND NEW. 2. MY INSTRUMENT PANEL WOULDN'T DIM MAKING IT EXTREMELY BRIGHT AT NIGHT AND DIFFICULT TO SEE THE ROAD. HONDA HAD TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE SYSTEM. 3. MY CAR RANDOMLY FLASHES A COLLISION WARNING "BRAKE" WHILE BEEPING SO LOUDLY WHEN THERE'S ACTUALLY NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME WHETHER I'M ON THE FREEWAY OR SIDE STREETS AND THIS I BELIEVE IS THE MOST DANGEROUS PROBLEM OF ALL SINCE MY CAR HAS THE ABILITY TO BRAKE FOR ME IF IT SENSES A COLLISION, AND MY CAR BRAKING ABRUPTLY FOR NO REASON COULD BE WHAT GETS ME INTO AN ACCIDENT!
I WAS UNABLE TO MOVE THE SHIFTER TO CHANGE FROM PARK TO DRIVE. THI INITIALLY HAPPENED IN A DRIVEWAY WHERE I WAS PARKED. SMALL PIECES OF PLASTIC WERE FALLING OUT. I HAD TO USE A PEN TO ENGAGE THE SHIFTER AND THEN IT WOULD MOVE. AS I PULLED INTO MY STREET I HAD MAJOR DIFFICULTY USING REVERSE EVEN WITH THE PEN. I WAS UNABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF OR LOCK THE DOORS UNTIL I DUG ALL THE PLASTIC OUT OF THE SHIFT DEVICE. I READ ALL DEALERS DIDN'T FIX FOR FREE SO WE ORDERED THE PART AND FIXED OURSELVES
BATTERY KEEPS DYING AFTER SITTING MORE THAN A SEVERAL DAYS. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME SINCE OWNING THE CAR; THE LAST TWO TIMES HAPPENED WITHIN A MONTH APART. HAD TO CALL AAA TO JUMP CAR EACH TIME.THE SECOND TIME WAS ON 23 MARCH 2020. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START CAR ON 24 APRIL, 2020, THE BATTERY APPEARED DRAINED AGAIN. NOTED THE MESSAGE ON DASH "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM". MY CAR IS PARKED IN A GARAGE AND HAS SAT FOR LONG PERIODS DUE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC QUARANTINE. ANOTHER ERROR MESSAGE INDICATED LOW TIRE PRESSURE. THE CAR RECEIVED ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IN FEBRUARY/IMARCH 2020. I DECIDED TO CALL DEALER TO HAVE CAR PICKED UP AND REPAIRED. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, IT SEEMS THAT THERE IS NOT A REMEDY FOR THIS PROBLEM. MILEAGE IS APPROXIMATELY 13,000 AND WAS PURCHASED NEW.
COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM - WHILE DRIVING AT 33 MPH ON A RURAL ROAD, THE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY ACTIVATED DESPITE THE FACT THERE WAS NO CAR OR OTHER OBSTRUCTION AHEAD.
ALL ELECTRICAL SYSTEM SHOW ERROR
MY CAR RADIO/MAP CONSOLE WAS GOING CRAZY FOR A MONTH. HARD TO DUPLICATE PROBLEM. BY TURNING OFF THE ENGINE AND BACK ON PROBLEM WENT AWAY. UNTIL 9/21/2018, THAT PROBLEM TRANSFERRED TO ON STEERING WHEEL MASTER CONSOLE WHERE EVERY ALERT WENT OFF FROM ENGINE, TIRE, ..., BRAKE--REALLY SCARED. TOOK CAR IMMEDIATELY TO MY NEAREST HONDA DEALER FOR REPAIR AND FOUND THEY HAD TO REPLACE MY VTC. IN DOING SO, PROBLEM WENT AWAY. NOW IT MARCH 2020, SOME DAYS MY AUDIO/MAP CONSOLE GOES CRAZY. NOT SURE WHEN MY STEERING CONSOLE WILL GO CRAZY AGAIN. I DO NOT HAVE ANY PICTURES OR VIDOA BUT IF YOU GOOGLE IT OTHERS HAVE SIMILAR PROBLEM.
WE REPEATABLY HAVE THE SMELL OF GAS IN THE CAR (TUBO-CHARGED CRV) AND IN MY GARAGE AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK. I'VE SEEN NO LEAKAGE ON THE GARAGE FLOOR BUT THE SMELL OF GAS IS OVERWHELMING. LIKEWISE IT IS A SICKENING SMELL IN THE CAR. I THINK THIS IS A TREMENDOUS SAFETY ISSUE SINCE I HAVE A GAS FIRED FURNACE AND HOT WATER HEATER IN THE GARAGE - I OPEN THE GARAGE DOOR TO AIR IT OUT FOR FEAR OF A FIRE. I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA HAS BEEN LOOKING INTO THE GAS SMELL ISSUE BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. FOR SAFETY SAKE WHEN IS SOMETHING GOING TO BE DONE?
I HAVE GAS MIXING WITH THE OIL. I TOOK IT TO HONDA AND THEY REALLY RECOMMENDED A EARLY OIL CHANGE. TWO WEEKS LATER I HAVE MORE GAS IN THE OIL. I NEVER DRIVE THE CAR LESS THAN 20 MILES AT A TIME. THE OIL IS ABOVE THE PLASTIC ON THE DIPSTICK AND ONTO THE METAL PORTION. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 20,000 MILES ON IT. HONDA'S TOLD ME THEY WOULD GIVE ME THE EXTENDED WARRANTY SIX YEARS UNLIMITED MILEAGE. I WANT THE PROBLEM FIXED BEFORE IT RUINS MY ENGINE. IF THERE'S TOO MUCH OIL IN THE ENGINE THIS COULD TRIGGER A ENGINE SHUTDOWN. THAT COULD BE A HAZARDOUS CONDITION. IF THE ENGINE SHUTDOWN IN HEAVY TRAFFIC THIS COULD BECOME A LIFE OR DEATH SITUATION.
I WAS DRIVING ON I-5 ABOUT 70 MPH, SUDDENLY THE CAR STARTED RUNNING ROUGH AND SPEED DROPPED IMMEDIATELY TO 10-12 MPH. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER A MINUTE OR SO THE CAR RETURNED TO NORMAL. I CONTINUED DRIVING TO THE NEXT DEALER AND HAD THEM INSPECT THE CAR. THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG AND GAVE ME BACK MY CAR. AFTER DRIVING AN ADDITIONAL 15 MINUTES THE SAME THING HAPPENED ONLY THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND MANY OTHER WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND FLASHED. ONCE AGAIN I PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY THEN CHANGED THE OIL, REPLACED A FOULED SPARK PLUG, ADJUSTED THE FUEL INJECTOR SETTINGS AND REPLACED THE CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT. HONDA HAS BEEN UNABLE TO EXPLAIN TO ME WHY THIS WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM LONG TERM.
MY 2017 HONDA CR-V ALLOWED ME TO TURN OFF MY CAR IGNITION, WHILE IN DRIVE MODE, WHEN I FAILED TO PUT IT IN PARK, WITHOUT ANY SAFETY WARNING. THIS HAS OCCURRED 4 TIMES OVER THE PAST 2 YEARS. THERE IS A WARNING/ ALERT FOR EVERYTHING ELSE ON A VEHICLE. WHY IS THERE NOT A BELL, WARNING ALERT, IF YOU ACCIDENTALLY LEAVE YOUR VEHICLE IN DRIVE MODE AND EXIT YOUR VEHICLE. YOU SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO TURN OFF YOUR VEHICLE IF YOUR VEHICLE IS NOT IN PARK. HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!
WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY WITH NO TRAFFIC OR OBSTACLES IN FRONT, ALL HONDA SENSING SUITE FEATURES RANDOMLY FAIL AND TRIGGER A SERIES OF WARNING MESSAGES FLASHING SEQUENTIALLY ON THE HUD INDICATING A PROBLEM WITH THE FOLLOWING: LKAS, COLLISION MITIGATION, BRAKING, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, AND ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEMS. THE BRAKE PEDAL BECOMES STIFF AND BRAKES FEEL UNRESPONSIVE BUT SOMETIMES ENGAGE TO STOP THE CAR EVEN IF STOPPING IS UNSAFE, SUCH AS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WITH NO CARS IN FRONT. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY IN DIFFERENT ENVIRONMENTS AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS. RAIN, SUN, HILLS, TRAFFIC, NO TRAFFIC, BUT IT IS DIFFICULT TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE SENSORS TRIGGER A FALSE POSITIVE THINKING THERE IS AN IMMINENT COLLISION EVEN IF DRIVING 35 MPH ON AN EMPTY ROAD. IT ALSO TRIGGERS WHEN FOLLOWING A CAR WITH WARNING TONES AND AUTOMATIC BRAKING. THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT IS REBOOTING ITSELF IN THE MIDDLE OF A FALSE BUT SELF-INDUCED CRISIS. I HAVE NARROWLY AVOIDED COLLISIONS BECAUSE THE CAR TOOK OVER CONTROL WHEN NOT NEEDED, ONLY TO TURN OFF ALL SAFETY FEATURES AND WARN THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE BRAKING SYSTEM. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT CLAIMED IT WAS A LOW BATTERY, BUT REPLACING WITH A NEW BATTERY DOES NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUES. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THEN TRIED TO CLAIM DRIVER ERROR AFTER DELETING TROUBLE CODES, WITH NO EXPLANATION HOW "DRIVER ERROR" CAN CAUSE THE SAME ERROR MESSAGES TO DISPLAY ON THE HUD AS ALL OF THE PLAINTIFFS OF A CLASS-ACTION LAWSUIT SAY THE SAME THING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR BRAKE WARNING LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ALONG WITH SEVERAL OTHER UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THERE WAS A RESISTANCE TO GOING FORWARD AS IF THE BRAKES WERE ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,000.
THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB POPPED OUT WHILE IT WAS IN PARK. THERE WAS ONE SPRING THAT POPPED OUT WITH IT, AND THE GEAR SHIFT SEEMS TO STAY IN GEAR, BUT I PUT THE CAR'S EMERGENCY BRAKE ON JUST TO BE SAFE. I HAVE TO PUSH THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB AND HOLD IT IN ORDER TO CHANGE GEARS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 45 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL CEASED WITH SEVERAL UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN HOME, PARKED OVERNIGHT, AND RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION THE FOLLOWING DAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE HENDRICK HONDA OF CHARLESTON LOCATED AT (1539 SAVANNAH HIGHWAY, CHARLESTON, SC 29407 (843) 279-0447) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED AND DETERMINED THAT THE ENGINE MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPROGRAMMED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES INTERMITTENTLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 73,000.
I OWNED MY 2017 HONDA CRV FOR 2 YEARS WITH ~43000 MILES ON IT. FEB 28TH 2020 I GOT THE EMISSION CONTROL ERROR OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ITS STEADY LIGHT NOT BLINKING, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. I DID NOT HAVE IT SERVICE RECENTLY OR FILLED GAS. A CAR WITH 43K MILES HAS EMISSION ISSUES JUST SEEMS POOR DESIGN.
ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH LIGHT UP AND STAY LIT UP EVEN AFTER THE CAR IS TURNED OFF AND BACK ON. THE DEALER RESET THE COMPUTER AND AFTER DRIVING FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME BACK ON. WHEN THE LIGHTS COME ON THE CAR LOSES POWER AND CAN NOT EXCELLERATE. CLIMBING A STEEP HILL IS VERY DIFFICULT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CRV. THE CONTACT STATED FUEL PENETRATED THE ENGINE OIL. THE CONTACT INSPECTED THE VEHICLE OIL LEVEL AND FOUND THAT THE DIP STICK ALSO HAD FUEL. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RUSS DARROW HONDA LOCATED AT 10851 W METRO AUTO MALL, MILWAUKEE, WI 53224, (414)-586-5400, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THAT ENGINE OIL WAS CONSISTENT AND ALSO THAT THE ENGINE OPERATED AS INTENDED WITH THE DESIGN OF THE FUEL INJECTORS. THE MECHANIC ALSO DID NOT FIND EXCESS OIL WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING INSPECTED. THE MANUFACTURER EXTENDED THE WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE DUE TO POSSIBLE GAS/OIL DILUTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,645. THE VIN WAS INVALID.
WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS NUMEROUS SYSTEM WARNINGS SOUNDED AND ILLUMINATED, AND SEVERAL VEHICLE SYSTEMS BECAME DISABLED. GASOLINE SEEPING INTO ENGINE OIL CAUSED THESE ISSUES WHICH INCLUDE ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, TPMS PROBLEM, BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM, AWD SYSTEM PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM. THE DEALER FOUND THE ENGINE OIL TO BE SATURATED WITH GASOLINE WHICH ACCORDING TO THEM CAUSED FAULTS IN THE OTHER SYSTEMS.
THE BUTTON ON OUR SHIFTER STUCK INSIDE THE SHIFTER ITSELF AND WE WERE UNABLE TO TURN THE CAR COMPLETELY OFF...RAN THE BATTERY DOWN AND NEEDED TO JUMP START THE CAR. HAD TO USE A SCREWDRIVER TO GET THE BUTTON OUT AGAIN. CHECKED TO SEE IF MY CAR WAS IN A RECALL AND NOTHING WAS SHOWING. HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE? MANY OTHER HONDA CRV OWNERS ARE HAVING THIS EXACT PROBLEM. IT'S NOT SAFE
I WAS IN A REAR END COLLISION. THE DRIVER SEAT DID NOT STAY UPRIGHT. UPON IMPACT IT RECLINED. MY CAR WAS IN MOTION WHEN IT WAS HIT, APPROX 20 MPH. THIS PROBABLY CAUSED MY INJURIES TO BE WORSE THAN IF THE SEAT HAD MAINTAINED IT'S UPRIGHT POSITION.
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE TOUCHSCREEN DISPLAY. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE BRIGHTNESS BAR ON THE TOUCHSCREEN DISPLAY FLASHED ON AND OFF AND WOULD GO DARK. THE SAME DAY THE SCREEN WENT DARK, THE CONSUMER WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE BRAKE ALERT FLASHED AND THE VEHICLE BRAKED FOR NO APPARENT REASON. *JS
THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER BROKE OFF AND COULD NOT SHIFT THE CAR OUT OF DRIVE IN A SAFE MANNER. HAD TO PUT PARKING BRAKE ON (WAS ON AN INCLINE)AND SHUT OFF CAR AND LOOK FOR THE BUTTON. WAS ABLE FIND IT AND INSERT IT TEMPORARILY TO GET HOME.
VEHICLE BATTERY WILL DIE AFTER TWO DAYS OF NON STARTING. THIS HAPPENS CONSTANTLY.
26,000 MILES HAD THE NEW CAR TOWED AND DETERMINED BRAKE BOOSTER ASSEMBLY CAUSED SEVERAL WARNING LIGHTS AND DISABLED THE VEHICLE. 1 YEAR LATER AT 46,000 HAD THE CAR TOWED DETERMINED TO BE FUEL INJECTOR AND PIPE SET OFF CODES AND VEHICLE WAS DISABLED. BOTH TIMES, I HAD THE VEHICLE PARKED IN A PARKING LOT, WAS ABLE TO START IT, BUT COULD NOT MOVE IT DUE TO MULTIPLE FAILURES. EVERY OIL CHANGE I ASK IF THERE ARE ANY VEHICLE RECALLS AND THEY ALWAYS LOOK UP THE VIN AND DETERMINE MY PARTICULAR VEHICLE IS NOT ON THE LIST. APPARENTLY IS SHOULD BE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ANTI-LOCK BRAKING SYSTEM, LANE DEPARTURE ASSIST, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION, ADAPTIVE CRUSE CONTROL, SOME DRIVER ASSIST NOT OPERATING, RADAR OBSTRUCTED AND AUTO HIGH BEAM WARNING INDICATORS FLASHED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE INTERMITTENT AND HAS RECURRED FOR APPROXIMATELY 3 YEARS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA OF ANNAPOLIS, 1736 WEST ST, ANNAPOLIS, MD 21401 TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE MECHANIC WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF THE FAULT CODES WERE ERASED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED ABOUT A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN NUMBER: 17064 (RADAR SOFTWARE). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 200.
I HAVE A 2017 HONDA CRV. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAD THE SAME ISSUE. ALL MY WARNING LIGHT ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, CHARGING SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM, POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS) PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA) PROBLEM, HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM. ARE BACK ON. WHEN THIS HAPPENS FOR THE FIRST TIME DEALERSHIP TOLE ME THEIR WAS AN UPDATE TO THE SYSTEM WHICH WILL FIX THE ISSUE. MONTH LATER I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.
MY 2017 HONDA BEGAN DISPLAYING MULTIPLE WARNING MESSAGES WHICH WOULD CAUSE THE FUNCTION FOR THE MESSAGE TO BE DISABLED. EXAMPLE, CRUISE CONTROL, NOT WORKING, HILL ASSIST NOT WORKING AND ALL MESSAGES WOULD DISPLAY AND NOTHING WORKING. USUALL THE NEXT DAY THE MESSAGES WOULD CLEAR AND FUNCTION RETURN. IT GOT MORE FREQUENT AND ULTIMATELY DID NOT CLEAR, STAYED ON CONSTANTLY. THEN ONE DAY WHILE TRAVELING ON A BUSY INTERSTATE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, BEFORE I WAS ABLE TO GET TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD I NARROWLY AVOIDED BEING STRUCK IN THE REAR BY A SEMI TRUCK AND TRAILER BARRELING DOWN ON ME. I DID MAKE IT OFF AND TURNED THE IGNITION OFF WAITED A SHORT WHILE AND RESTARTED THE MOTOR. THERE WAS A NEW MESSAGE IN THE DISPLAY "VEHICLE EMISSION PROBLEM" . I PULLED ONTO THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT HOME. THIS WAS THE WEEKEND AND THE FOLLOWING MONDAY I CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND SCHEDULED A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD HAPPENED. I WAITED IN THE LOBBY AND SHORTLY THE SERVICE REP TOLD ME PARTS NEEDED TO BE ORDERED AND I WOULD NOTIFIED WHEN THEY CAME SO MY CAR COULD BE REPAIRED, I WAS ALSO TOLD IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. A FEW DAYS I WAS CALLED AND TOOK THE CAR IN FOR REPAIR. I WAITED AND LATER WAS TOLD MY CAR WAS READY. I LEFT AND ALL SEEMED WELL UNTIL THE NEXT DAY WHEN I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, ALL THE ALARMS DISPLAYED AND THE FUNCTIONS IN ALARM DID NOT WORK. THE CAR ALSO WENT INTO LIMP MODE AGAIN AND I HAD TO PULL OVER. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD TO BRING THE CAR BACK IN. THE NEXT MORNING WHILE GOING TO WORK THE CAR AGAIN LOST POWER AND STOPPED. ALL THE ALARMS WERE UP INCLUDING EMISSION SYSTEM PROBLEM, THE CAR WOULD NOT RESTART. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND I HAD THE CAR TOWED IN. A LOANER CAR WAS PROVIDED. THIS WAS CHRISTMAS EVE.
THIS IS A CONTINUATION OF COMPLAINT 11307119 IN WHICH I HAD TO TOW CAR TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. I RECEIVED A CALL AFTER CHRISTMAS THAT MY CAR WAS READY FOR PICKUP AND THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT BUT IT WAS OUT OF GAS. I WENT TO PICK UP THE CAR AND WAS CHARGED $100 PLUS FOR THE THREE GALLONS OF GASOLINE. I GOT IN THE CAR, STARTED IT, IT WAS RUNNING ROUGH THEN AS I STARTED TO LEAVE ALL THE WARNINGS CAME UP AGAIN, I PULLED BACK AROUND TO THE SERVICE BAY AND GOT THE ATTENTION OF THE SERVICE REP AND SHOWED HIM THE WARNINGS ON THE DASH. HE GOT A TECHNICIAN AND HOOKED UP A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL BUT SAID HE SAW NO CODES, SO HE GOT A COMPUTER AND HOOKED IT UP AND SAID ALL HE SAW WAS AN EVAP CODE, BUT ALL THE WARNINGS WERE ON DISPLAY. I WAS TOLD TO LEAVE CAR SO THEY COULD CHECK FURTHER. I LEFT IN THE LOANER. A COUPLE DAYS LATER I WAS CALLED AND TOLD THEY WOULD NEED TO TEAR THE ENGINE DOWN TO TRY TO FIND THE PROBLEM AND I WOULD NEED TO APPROVE THE WORK AND AGREE TO PAY IF IT WERE DEEMED NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. I AGREED. I WAS LATER CALLED AND TOLD IT NEEDED TO HAVE THE INJECTORS REPLACED AND IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED AND THE COST WOULD BE $1440. I TOLD THE REP THE CAR WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY SHOULD CONTINUE WITH THE REPAIR.. LATER THAT DAY I CALLED AND WAS TOLD I COULD PICK UP THE CAR, I WENT TO GET THE CAR AND WAS TOLD IT HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED AND A NOTE WAS ON SERVICE RECORD THAT THE CUSTOMER HAD DECLINED TO HAVE THE CAR REPAIRED. I WAS VERY CONFUSED AND UPSET. I COMMENTED ABOUT MY DISPLEASURE AND CONCERN FOR SAFETY, I WAS TOLD I RECEIVED GREAT SERVICE ESPECIALLY SINCE I DID NOT PURCHASE CARE THERE. I WAS ALSO CHARGED $300 PLUS AND THE CAR WAS NOT REPAIRED AND UNSAFE. I ASKED TO SEE SERVICE MANAGER BUT WAS TOLD HE WAS NOT IN. I PAID THE BILL AND LEFT. BEFORE I GOT HOME THE CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE AGAIN AND ALL THE WARNINGS CAME UP ALSO.
CONTINUATION OF COMPLAINTS 11307119, AND 11307127. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR NEW AND EXPLAINED WHAT HAD BEEN GOING ON WITH THE CAR. I WAS TOLD TO BRING THE CAR IN. I TOOK THE CAR IN AND WAITED. I WAS LATER INFORMED THE HONDA RECOMMENDED THAT THE PLUGS BE REPLACED AND OIL CHANGE AND A SOFTWARE UPDATE. I WAS LATER TOLD THAT I WOULD NEED TO HAVE THE INJECTORS REPLACED AND I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIR. I WAS TOLD THEY WOULD NEED TO ORDER PARTS AND PROVIDED ME WITH A CAR AND I LEFT, IT WAS A FRIDAY. MONDAY I WENT TO PICKUP THE CAR. I WAS CHARGED $1800 PLUS FOR THE REPAIR. I LEFT AND EVERYTHING SEEMED OK BUT BEFORE I GOT HOME THE ALARM ENGINE EMISSION PROBLEM CAME UP. NEXT DAY I CALLED BACK AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IN AND THEY WOULD LOOK AT IT AGAIN. THE MESSAGE IS STILL THERE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE HIS WIFE WAS AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, SHE WAS ALERTED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ON FIRE AT THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT WAS TOLD THAT PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, HIS WIFE STATED THAT THE PARKING ASSIST WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE DRIVER EXITED THE VEHICLE AND THE POLICE AND FIRE DEPARTMENT WERE CALLED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. FIRE AND POLICE REPORTS WERE FILED. THERE WAS NO INJURY REPORTED. THE VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED AND WAS TOWED TO AN IMPOUND. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MOTORCARS HONDA DEALER, LOCATED AT 2953 MAYFIELD RD, CLEVELAND HEIGHTS, OH 44118, HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WAS ALREADY TOWED TO THE POLICE IMPOUND. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000.
WHEN I PULLED OVER MY CAR IN THE PARKING LOT, PUT THE SHIFT STICK TO P THEM TRY TO ENGAGE THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE. THE DASHBOARD SHOWED 'ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM' AND THE PARKING WASN'T ENGAGED AND 'BRAKE' RED LIGHT FLASHING ON DASHBOARD. AND ALL OTHER SYSTEMS LIKE ADAPTATIVE CRUISE CONTROL', 'LANE CONTROL', ETC WERE REPORTING MALFUNCTION.
CRUISE CONTROL, STOPPED WORKING WHILE ON A(INTERSTATE) ROAD TRIP. DESPITE STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE CAR. LATER I STOPPED AT A GAS STATION AND IT WORKED FOR A MILE OR SO AFTER RESTARTING THEN STOPPED WORKING AGAIN.
SHIFT BUTTON POPPED OUT OF SHIFT HANDLE CAUSING CAR TO NOT BE ABLE TO SHIFT INTO DIFFERENT GEARS. THIS OCCURRED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION IN A PARKING LOT.
EXPERIENCED A FALSE POSITIVE RELATED TO AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM WHILE DRIVING (BRAKES LOCKED UP AND TIRES SCREECHED). THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR AND LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME.
SHIFT KNOB BUTTON BROKE IN HALF AS I WAS PLACING MY CR-V 2017 IN PARK. BROKEN PIECE COMPLETELY FELL OUT. UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS. NEEDED TO USE A SCREWDRIVER TO DEPRESS THE GEAR MECHANISM AND SHIFT INTO PARK.
SHIFTER KNOB BROKE AND FELL OFF GEAR SHIFTER WHILE IN MOTION UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND THAT HONDA HAD ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN 19-063 DESCRIBING THE SAME EXACT ISSUE AS HAD HAPPENED TO OUR VEHICLE AND IT REFERENCED NHTSA #10160912 BUT THE SERVICE BULLETIN IS VIN SPECIFIC AND HONDA IS STATING THAT OUR VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED FOR REPAIR UNDER THIS SERVICE BULLETIN. I AM QUESTIONING THEM FURTHER BUT IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM AS DESCRIBED IN THE BULLETIN SO MAYBE THE RECALL/PRODUCT UPDATE NEEDS TO BE LOOKED AT FURTHER SO THAT IN THE FUTURE DRIVERS DON'T EXPERIENCE THE SHIFTER KNOB FALLING OFF THE GEAR SELECTOR WHILE IN MOTION.
THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK PROPERLY WHEN IT IS COLD OUT. AUTO START DOES NOTHING TO WARM UP THE CAR. THE CARS TEMPERATURE GAUGE ONLY MOVES TOWARDS THE CENTER WHEN THE CAR IS MOVING. ONCE IS IT HALF WAY, A NORMAL CAR WOULD THEN PRODUCE HEAT. NOT THIS CAR! YOU TURN THE HEAT ON AND THE GAUGE DROPS ALL THE WAY DOWN, TO NOTHING! WITH THE HEAT NOT WORKING I'M LEFT WITH WINDOWS THAT ARE FOGGY/ICY WHICH LIMITS MY VISIBILITY CREATING DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS. I NOTICED TGIS SOONCAS THE COLD WEATHER CAME AROUND AND ITS STILL DOING IT TO THIS DAY. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE FORUMS WHERE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH 3000-4000 MILES ON THE BRAND NEW CAR. SOME PEOPLE DID REPAIRS AND STILL NO HEAT.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HWY AT 65 MPH THE BUTTON IN THE GEAR SHIFT POPPED OUT. IT IS A PIECE OF PLASTIC AND IT BROKE INSIDE THE GEAR HANDLE. I DROVE HOME BUT WITHOUT THIS BUTTON INSERTED I AM NOT ABLE TO SHIFT TO PARK, REVERSE, DRIVE. I TOOK IT TO THE WESTHILLS HONDA DEALER FOR REPAIR. I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS SAME ISSUE BUT NOT FOR THIS VIN. TO ME THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS CONCERN.
THIS IS THE FIFTH WINDSHIELD (INCLUDING THE ONE I BOUGHT WITH THE CAR) I AM ON WITH MY 2017 HONDA CRV. EVERY JANUARY/FEBRUARY IT SEEMS MY CAR'S WINDSHIELD "CRACKS" FOR UNKNOWN REASONS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY SAME COMMUTE FOR TEN YEARS. NEVER IN THOSE YEARS HAVE I HAD TO REPLACE MY WINDSHIELD ON OTHER CARS. SINCE GETTING MY HONDA, I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE IT! THESE CRACKS TAKE PLACE AFTER THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN PARKED AND WHEN THE TEMPERATURE CHANGES. THIS IS CAUSING MULTIPLE INSURANCE CLAIMS AS A RESULT- IMPACTING MY INSURANCE. I'M ALSO FEARFUL OF MY CHILDREN'S AND MY SAFETY DUE TO THESE RANDOM CRACKS. I DO NOT TRUST MY WINDSHIELD IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT. I'M ACTUALLY CONSIDERING TRADING THIS VEHICLE IN BECAUSE OF THIS ISSUE. HONDA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING NOW.. TONIGHT WAS ACTUALLY THE FIFTH TIME THIS HAPPENED AFTER I PARKED MY VEHICLE (AFTER ACTUALLY HAVING MY HONDA SERVICED).
ON 1/8/20 WHEN I STARTED MY CAR IN THE MORNING ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON BEFORE LEAVING THE DRIVEWAY, AND STAYED ON ALL THE WAY TO WORK, AND BACK. THEN AGAIN THE FOLLOWING MORNING. I CALLED HONDA ON 1/9/20, THEY ADVISED TO COME IN SOONER THAN LATER. CAR IS AT HONDA NOW 1/10/20, THEY ARE STATING ALL CODES MAY BE DUE TO TWO CODES THAT NEED TO BE FIXED: P0302 (FUEL INJECTION), WHICH IS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND U0129 LOST COMMUNICATION WITH BRAKING SYSTEM DUE TO A/C CONTROL UNIT - WHICH WILL COST ME $1630 FOR A CAR WITH ONLY 60,000 MILES ON IT! OF NOTE: THE CAR'S EMERGENCY BRAKE WHILE DRIVING HAS TRIGGERED A COUPLE OF TIMES, AND ALL WARNING LIGHTS HAVE COME ON BEFORE IN HEAVY RAIN.
DURING A REGULAR DRIVING, DASHBOARD LIGHT UP WITH SEVERAL SYSTEMS MALFUNCTION AND WARNINGS LIGHTS. CAR IS 2YEAR OLD WITH 30000 MILES BUT ISSUE IS BEEN AROUND SINCE IT WAS 4000 MILES SEVERAL VISITS TO THE DEALER GOT REPLACED BATTERY ON 1ST AND ALTERNATOR ON LAST VISIT. AND NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN
VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN FRIDAY 1/3/2020 IN A MIX OF DRIVING THAT INCLUDED THIRTY-FIVE MILES AT 70MPH+ AND SECONDARY TRIP OF TEN MILES IN TOWN THAT WAS A MIX OF TRAFFIC LIGHTS AND SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC. WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IN SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC CABIN OF VEHICLE FILLED WITH GAS FUMES, FIRST FAINTLY, BUT BECAME WORSE UNTIL HEADACHE AND NAUSEA OCCURRED. VEHICLE WAS EVENTUALLY PARKED AND RESTED FOR TEN MINUTES TO CHECK OIL ALONG WITH INTERIOR AIR REFRESH. WHILE CHECKING OIL I OBSERVED THE OIL LEVEL .75 INCHES ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE DIP STICK WITH AN OVERALL STRONG ODOR OF FUEL. ENGINE OPERATED AS IT ALWAYS HAS, NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND NO EVIDENCE OF DRIVE ABILITY PROBLEMS. OIL LEVEL WAS ALSO OBSERVED TO BE .75 INCHES ABOVE FULL MARK 11/24/2019 AND SUBSEQUENT PHOTO WAS TAKEN. OIL WAS CHANGED 1/4/2020 AT 50,189 WITH OIL LIFE AT 50% WITH 5,714 MILES. PRIOR OIL CHANGE SERVICE OCCURRED AT 44,475 MILES ON 8/27/2019 AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS VERIFIED AT FULL LINE . FUEL SMELLS HAVE BEEN NOTICED IN THIS VEHICLE SINCE 300 MILES ON ODOMETER. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO DEALER DECEMBER 12/2017 FOR FUEL SMELL COMPLAINT BUT NO RECTIFICATION MADE. 12/2018 THE DEALER PERFORMED TSB 18-114 WHICH INCLUDED HVAC MODULE REPLACEMENT, AND REPROGRAM TCU AND PCM, AND CHANGE OIL. AFTER THIS MUCH ANTICIPATED UPDATE VIRTUALLY NO CHANGE WAS OBSERVED AS OIL RISE AND FUEL SMELLS CONTINUED TO OCCUR. DURING THE WINTER OF 2018-2019 OIL RISE INCREASED .50" ABOVE FULL MARK AT 5000 MILE OIL, BUT PREMIUM FUEL WAS UTILIZED CONSISTENTLY. WE ALSO OBSERVED VERY FEW INSTANCES OF GAS SMELL IN CABIN. MANUFACTURER HAS COMMUNICATED THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT REQUIRE PREMIUM FUEL. THIS VEHICLE IS DRIVEN MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES, 25 MILES PER TRIP AT 70MPH+. OUR DRIVING SITUATION CONTRADICTS THE MANUFACTURER EXPLANATION OF SHORT TRIPS AS CAUSE OF EXCESSIVE OIL DILUTION BY FUEL.
MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING WARNING INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BEGIN TO FLASH (ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM, LANE KEEP ASSIST SYSTEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM AND BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT). WHEN THIS HAPPENS, THESE SYSTEMS NO LONGER FUNCTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT HIGH AND LOW SPEED WITH ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL ON AND OFF, ON HIGHWAYS AND FREEWAYS. EACH TIME, I FIND A PLACE TO STOP, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, AND BACK ON AGAIN AND THE SYSTEMS ARE FINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES, THE FIRST BEING WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE NEW AND THE LAST BEING YESTERDAY (2 1/2 YEARS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE) I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY SAY THEY CANNOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND FIND NO ERROR CODES SO NOTHING CAN BE DONE. DOCUMENTATION HAS BEEN GIVEN TO THE DEALER ON EACH VISIT. THIS DEFINITELY SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE TO ME. I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE OTHER ELECTRONIC ISSUES AS WELL WHICH I WILL ADDRESS IN ANOTHER COMPLAINT.
THE SHIFT BUTTON ON THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTER FELL OFF. IT IS BROKE SO THE CAR CANNON BE PUT BACK INTO PARK.
THE EMISSIONS LIGHT CAME ON, STARTED TO HAVE AN ODOR OF GASOLINE IN THE CABIN, FUEL MILAGE HAS DECREASED, ROUGH IDLE, HESITATION IN ACCELERATION. HAPPEN IN MOTION, STATIONARY, AND WHEN VEHICLE WAS OFF. THIS VEHICLE IS USED MOSTLY ON THE HIGHWAY, IN THE MID-ATLANTIC REGION.
ON THREE RECENT OCCASIONS WHILE DRIVING, THE DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHTS INDICATED MULTIPLE SYSTEM FAILURES INCLUDING A BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM. THE CAR WAS GOING ABOUT 25-35 MPH EACH TIME GOING STRAIGHT. ON ALL INSTANCES, THE CAR SEEMED FINE DESPITE THE WARNINGS. IN THE FIRST TWO INSTANCES THE WARNING LIGHTS WENT OUT AFTER ABOUT ONE MINUTE AND IN THE THIRD INSTANCE IT STAYED ON EVEN WHEN THE ENGINE WAS SHUT OFF ALTHOUGH IT DID GO OUT AFTER THE CAR WAS SHUT OFF OVERNIGHT AND RESTARTED. IT IS VERY CONCERNING WHEN ANY WARNING GOES OFF BUT ESPECIALLY SO WHEN IT INDICATES A BRAKE PROBLEM. THE DEALERSHIP WAS OF NO HELP STATING THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING UNLESS IT WAS HAPPENING WHEN THEY LOOKED AT IT. THEY CLAIMED TO HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS PROBLEM BUT THERE ARE MULTIPLE REPORTS ONLINE AND I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME EXPERIENCE.
MY 2017 HONDA CR-V HAS AN ISSUE WITH GASOLINE GETTING INTO THE ENGINE OIL, WHICH IS RAISING THE OIL LEVEL, TURNING THE OIL BLACK, AND MAKING IT SMELL OF GASOLINE. I FEAR THAT THIS IS THINNING THE OIL TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS NOT PROTECTING THE ENGINE FROM WEAR.
I HAVE HAD MULTIPLE INSTANCES WHERE SEVERAL SYSTEM ALERTS POP UP ON MY DASHBOARD FOR NO APPARENT REASON (LANE KEEPING ASSIST PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT). THIS HAS HAPPENED INTERMITTENTLY SINCE I FIRST OWNED MY BRAND NEW CAR (THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS ONE MONTH AFTER OWNING IT). I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY HAVE TRIED VARIOUS THINGS, BUT HONDA HAS YET TO COME UP WITH A PROPER SOLUTION. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH WHEN TURNING MY CAR ON, AS WELL AS WHEN I'M DRIVING.
PAINT BUBBLES AT THE LIP OF MY HOOD, NOT DUE TO RUST OR AN ACCIDENT - 3 DIFFERENT AREAS VARYING IN SIZE. I WILL HAVE HONDA LOOK AT IT BUT OTHER REPORTS SHOW THAT HONDA DOES NOT FIX - IT IS OUT OF BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY. ONLY ONE PIC WOULD SEND I HAVE 3
DRIVER SIDE SEAT HEATER FAILED AT LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD & UNDER 45,000 MILES. DEALER SAID IT'S NOT A COVERED REPAIR NOR MANUFACTURER DEFECT. HONDA CORP WOULDN'T TALK TO ME BECAUSE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY DUE TO HIGH MILEAGE.
NO PROBLEMS WITH ENGINE, UNTIL 40,000 MILES. I ALWAYS CHANGED THE OIL AT 3000 MILES SO IT HAD NO TIME TO INCREASE. LAST WEEK I TOOK A 1200 MILE TRIP, CHECKED THE OIL WHEN I GOT HOME, FOUND IT TO BE WELL OVER A QUART ABOVE FULL. I CALLED MY HONDA DEALER AND SET AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE 23RD OF DECEMBER.
SHIFT KNOB BUTTON BROKE DURING OPERATION RESULTING IN LOSS OF USE OF VEHICLE. BATTERY HAS BEEN REPLACED 2 TIMES ON VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STARTED TO FLASH. THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED WITHOUT THE BRAKE PEDAL BEING DEPRESSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED SPORADICALLY FOR THE PAST YEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FRANK LETA HONDA (500 AUTO MALL DR, O'FALLON, MO 63368) FIVE TIMES AND THEY REPAIRED THE VEHICLE, ACCORDING TO THEIR RECORDS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND CONTACT WAS ASKED TO SUBMIT ALL THE RECORDS AND BILLS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
SOMETIMES, AUTOBREAK KICKS OFF WHEN DRIVING APPROACHING A BRIDGE ON A SUNNY DAY OR IN A CONSTRUCTION AREA WHERE THE LANES HAVE BEEN MODIFIED OR NARROWER WITH CONSTRUCTION CONES. THIS IS SUPER SCARY AND MAY RESULT IN UNEXPECTED COLLISIONS WITH CAR BEHIND, WHO IS NOT ANTICIPATING ANY ABRUPT BREAK/STOPPAGE
THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ON MY HONDA 2017 CRV ACTIVATED UNNECESSARILY AND PERFORMED A HARD BRAKING EVENT WHEN THERE WERE NO CAUSE FOR IT. I WAS PROCEEDING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AFTER WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO TURN GREEN. I WAS ACCELERATING THROUGH THE INTERSECTION AFTER ALL CARS HAD CLEARED IT. THE RIGHT TURNING CARS HAD CLEARED AND THERE WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME IN MY LANE. THERE WERE NO ONCOMING CARS IN, OR ENTERING, THE INTERSECTION. THE BRAKING ACTION WAS SEVERE ENOUGH TO CAUSE THE CONTENTS IN THE BACK SEAT TO BE THROWN FORWARD ONTO THE FLOOR. I DON'T THINK MY SPEED EXCEEDED 15-20 MILES PER HOUR. MY FOOT WAS ON THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL THE WHOLE TIME. THERE WAS A SLIGHT DOWNWARD SLOPE IN THE ROAD AS I ENTERED THE INTERSECTION OF THE CROSSING ROAD LANES. I WAS HEADED SOUTHBOUND ON NALL AVENUE IN OVERLAND PARK, KANSAS - ENTERING/CROSSING 95TH STREET. I WAS IN THE RIGHTMOST LANE. THIS WAS ON 12/2/2019 AT ABOUT 7:50 A.M.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AUTOMATIC BRAKE SYSTEM ENGAGED AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTING WOULD BECOME VERY BRIGHT AND THEN VERY DARK, AND THE HEADLIGHTS WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GERMAIN OF ANN ARBOR (2575 S STATE ST, ANN ARBOR, MI 48104, (855) 223-0067) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10163184 AND MANUFACTURER COMMUNICATION NUMBER: A19-066. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 10080473. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 40,500. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.
THE THE GEARSHIFT BUTTON HAS BROKEN. WE HAVE FRIENDS WITH THE SAME EXACT YEAR MAKE MODEL THAT DID THE SAME EXACT THING.
MCMINNVILLE OREGON AT THE INTERSECTION OF NE BAKER ST (HWY99W) AND NE 12TH ST. WHILE DRIVING NORTH ON NE BAKER ST AND ENTERING THE INTERSECTION WHERE AT LEAST TWO STEEL PLATES WERE IN THE ROAD COVERING CONSTRUCTION WORK OUR 2017 HONDA CRV SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY APPLIED THE BRAKING SYSTEM. THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM DESIGNED TO BRAKE THE VEHICLE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT HAD SUDDENLY CHIRPED AND ALERTED ON THE DASH "BRAKE!" AND IN LESS THAN ONE SECOND THE SYSTEM APPLIED THE BRAKES QUICKLY AND HARD. TIME WAS ABOUT 3:45PM, THE SKY WAS PARTLY CLOUDY, TEMPERATURE WAS ABOUT 45 DEGREES, THE ROADS WE DRY AND CLEAR. ONLY AFTER READING OTHER EXACT EVENTS WITH EXACT SAME SCENARIOS DID I REALIZE THAT IT APPEARED THE STEEL PLATES IN THE ROAD HAD CONFUSED THE SYSTEM. LUCKILY NO OTHER CARS WERE AROUND OR BEHIND US AND THE FOUR OF US IN THE VEHICLE WERE NO MORE THAT STARTLED BY THE EVENT.
OIL LEVEL RISES TO ABOVE HEIGHT MARK ON DIPSTICK. ENGINE POWER LOSS. SMELL OF GAS IN CABIN. OIL LEAK BECAUSE OF RISING OIL LEVEL IN ENGINE.
FUEL LEAKING INTO OIL. WHEN CHECKING OIL THAT IS NOT OVERDUE FOR CHANGING, OIL LEVEL IS WELL OVER FULL AND HAD STRONG GASOLINE ODOR.
DISPLAY MONITOR GOES COMPLETELY DARK. HAVE TO TURN VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART FOR IT TO COME BACK.
THIS PAST SUMMER, I WAS DRIVING BY MYSELF WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN, THE INFOTAINMENT CENTER (THE SCREEN THAT CONTROLS EVERYTHING AND IS AT THE CENTER OF IT ALL) STARTED BEEPING UNCONTROLLABLY AND THE SCREEN'S BRIGHTNESS SETTING STARTED GOING FROM FULL BRIGHTNESS TO FULL DARKNESS. I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS GOING ON. I WAS TERRIFIED AND ALMOST GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT, REAR ENDING THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I BECAME VERY DISTRACTED AND STARTLED. I WASN'T SURE IF THE CAR COMPUTER OR BATTERY WAS OVER HEATING, I WASN'T SURE IF I SHOULD PULL OVER ACROSS TWO LANES OF TRAFFIC TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY STOP...IT WAS TERRIBLE. I TRIED EVERYTHING TO GET IT TO STOP. NOTHING WOULD DO IT. LUCKILY, I WAS A FEW MINUTES AWAY FROM HOME. I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY IN A PANIC AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. I TURNED IT BACK ON AND IT WAS GONE. I CHALKED THIS UP TO MAYBE A ONE TIME COMPUTER GLITCH AND LET IT GO. TWO DAYS LATER ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SAME THING HAPPENED. THIS CONTINUED MANY MORE TIMES RANDOMLY WITHOUT ANY WARNING OR EXPLANATION. I NEVER RECEIVED A NOTICE OR WARNING IN THE MAIL. I WISH MY STORY ENDED THERE, BUT IT DOESN'T. THE RANDOM OBNOXIOUS BEEPING AND FLASHING EVENTUALLY STOPPED. HOWEVER, TWO WEEKS AGO I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK AT NIGHT AND NOTICED I COULD BARELY SEE THE LINES ON THE ROAD. I ALMOST HIT A DEER. CONFUSED, I REALIZED THE BRIGHTNESS WAS TURNED ALL THE WAY UP ON THE INFOTAINMENT CENTER AND ON THE SCREEN DIRECTLY BEHIND THE STEERING WHEEL. I ATTEMPTED TO TURN THE BRIGHTNESS DOWN, BUT QUICKLY REALIZED THE SCREENS WERE FROZEN ON THE HIGHEST BRIGHTNESS SETTING. EVEN WHEN I WOULD PRESS THE (-) SYMBOL TO TURN IT DOWN, IT WOULD SCALE DOWN TO THE LOWEST SETTING, YET REMAIN ON FULL BRIGHTNESS. HONDA TOLD ME THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING. TONIGHT, I ALMOST HIT A PEDESTRIAN BECAUSE I COULDN'T SEE THEM UNTIL THE LAST MINUTE. I'VE NEVER BEEN SO MORTIFIED. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. I HAVE VIDEOS.
THE GEAR SELECTOR BUTTON HAS BROKEN UNDER NORMAL USE. THE BUTTON WAS FOUND IN THE CUP HOLDER AND WILL NO LONGER STAY IN ITS HOUSING. THE PLASTIC APPEARS TO BE BROKEN.
HAD FOOT ON THE BRAKE, WAS STOPPED, BUT VEHICLE PROCEEDED TO ACCELERATE FORWARD AND CAUSED VEHICLE TO IMPACT A BRICK POLE.
DEAD BATTERY - 11-17-2019, 11-18-2019 (2YRS 3MONTHS OLD, 16,000 MILES) GARAGE KEPT. CAR WON'T START. CAR PARKED IN GARAGE.
I OWN A 2017 HONDA CRV. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM ACTIVATED FOR NO REASON. THE MOST SERIOUS ONE WAS WHEN I WENT DOWN ON A BRIDGE, AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEMS GOT ACTIVATED AND BREAKING HARD. IT WAS BREAKING SO HARD THAT ALMOST STOP DEAD. I WAS SO WORRY ABOUT SOMEONE BEHIND HIT ME. SOME OF THE OCCASIONS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS MAKING A EXIT TURN ON HIGHWAY AND ONE OR TWICE WHEN I WENT STRAIGHT. PLEASE INVESTIGATE WITH OTHER HONDA AND OWNERS.
ENGINE OIL LEAKS AND STORES ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE, THEN LEAKS ALTOGETHER AND ON FLOOR- SLIP AND FALLS IN GARAGE.
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON POPPED OUT WHILE DRIVING: I WAS DRIVING WITH MY CHILDREN IN THE CAR, THE BUTTON POPPED OUT AS I WAS TRYING TO DROP THEM OFF AT SCHOOL. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A TRULY DEADLY SITUATION IN A CROWDED DROP OFF BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT GO TO PARK. THANKFULLY I QUICKLY RECOVERED FROM SHOCK, HIT THE BRAKES AND SCRAMBLED TO GRAB THE PIECE THAT HAD FALLEN TO THE FLOOR OF THE CAR. THE BUTTON PIECE LOOKS CHEAP, SO NOW THE COIL IS EXPOSED. I CAN'T JUST STICK MY FINGER IN SO I AM GOING TO NEED TO TAPE THE BUTTON BACK ON UNTIL I GET IT FIXED. THIS IS AN OBVIOUS RECALL ISSUE SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE HAVE MENTIONED IT. I WOULDN'T HAVE REPORTED IT IF I DIDN'T SEE SO MANY ONLINE COMPLAINTS.
ENGINE REV UP AND DOWN, THEN STALLING AND SHUTS OFF
WHILE SHIFTING THE VEHICLE INTO REVERSE THE GEAR SHIFT RELEASE BUTTON POPPED OUT. THUS NOT ALLOWING ME TO PUT THE VEHICLE BACK IN PARK UNTIL PUTTING THE GEAR RELEASE BUTTON BACK INTO THE GEAR SHIFT HANDLE. I NOTICED A SPRING HAD POPPED OUT OF THE GREAT SHIFT HANDLE ALONG WITH THE SHIFT RELEASE BUTTON.
PURCHASED 08-24-2019. NOT EVEN 1200 MILES IN I HAVE GAS IN MY OIL AFTER CHECKING OIL ON DIPSTICK AT HOME. PROBABLY 1/2 INCH ABOVE THE OIL FILL LINE. PER DEALER ON 11/05 MULTIPOINT INSPECTION THERE IS GASOLINE IN THE OIL PER THE DEALER'S NOTATION.
WHEN DRIVING ON A LOCAL ROAD FROM SCHOOL, MY SON PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR AFTER A STOP LIGHT. OUR 2017 HONDA CRV DIDN'T MOVE AN INCH. THANKFULLY, IT WAS NOT A HIGHWAY AND THE CARS BEHIND HIM WERE NOT COMING AT HIGH SPEED. WE HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALER AND IT TURNED OUT THAT THE TRANSMISSION WAS GONE AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. WE WERE QUITE UPSET THAT ONLY A TWO YEAR OLD CAR CAN HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND WANTED TO REPORT THE INCIDENT,
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR HATCH WOULD NOT OPEN AND THE ENGINE WAS DIFFICULT TO START. LATER, WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ERRONEOUSLY ACTIVATED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO ABRUPTLY STOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FLOW HONDA OF BURLINGTON (2920 S. CHURCH ST, BURLINGTON, NC) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BATTERY WAS FAULTY AND THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM REQUIRED AN UPDATE. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED AND THE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,135. THE CONSUMER STATED THE BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR OCCASIONALLY ILLUMINATES.*JS
GAS GETS IN THE OIL, GAS FUMES GO INTO THE CAR ITSELF AND MAKE US DIZZY WHILE DRIVING (NOT SAFE). CAR SPUTTERS (NOT SAFE) AND HEATER DOES NOT GET WARM ENOUGH TO KEEP THE WINDSHIELD CLEAR IN COLD WEATHER REDUCING VIABILITY AND CREATING A SAFETY ISSUE. IT TAKES 15 MINUTES OF DRIVING FOR CAR TO WARM UP, I DON'T KNOW HOW TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD FOR THE FIRST 15 MINUTES. I'M AWARE THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH MY MODEL, I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO DO A RECALL AND REALLY ACTUALLY FIX IT. DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO FIX AT THIS TIME. THE SERVICE CAMPAIGN ISN'T WORKING. I'M READING THAT THE 2019 WERE SUPPOSEDLY FIXED WITH THE SAME SERVICE CAMPAIGN AND IT'S NOT WORKING.
THE WINDSHIELD ON MY HONDA CR-V CRACKED FROM THE VERY BOTTOM ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I NOTICED THERE'S A CRACK THAT SEEMED TO HAVE BEGUN WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. I'M TERRIFIED THAT THERE'S SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THIS WINDSHIELD AND I AM TO SCARED TO DRIVE PASSENGERS IN A CAR WITH A DEFECTIVE WINDSHIELD.
POWER TRAIN AND FUEL INJECTOR ISSUE. CAUSING THE SPARK PLUG REPLACEMENT UNDER AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, HOWEVER THE FAULTY FUEL INJECTOR WAS NOT.
THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFTER KNOB HAS BROKEN OFF MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO SWITCH FROM PARK TO DRIVE AND BACK TO PARK. THIS IS A SERIOUS HAZARD IF I AM UNABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK. BASED UPON ONLINE LOOK-UPS, THIS SEEMS TO BE A FREQUENT PROBLEM WITHIN THE 2017 CR-V
I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AFTER LEAVING A MOVIE. I PROBABLY WASN'T GOING OVER 25 MPH. SOMETHING FLEW INTO THE FLOOR, AND I THOUGH MY KEYS HAD SLID INTO THE FLOOR. I CAME TO A STOP LIGHT AND LOOKED DOWN. THE KNOB TO MY GEAR SHIFT AND THE SPRING HAD FLOWN OFF THE HANDLE. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND REACH DOWN AND FIND THE PARTS AND TRY TO PRESS THEM INTO THE GEAR SHIFT SO THAT I COULD PUT THE CAR IN PARK. I WAS IN THE CITY, BUT I LIVE IN A SMALL TOWN. I WAS GOING DOWN A STRAIGHT ROAD.
MY ENTIRE GEAR SHIFTER ASSEMBLY FELL APART WHILE I PUT IN IN PARK THIS MORNING. NOW I CANT DRIVE IT AT ALL. IT WAS STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAPPENED
I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, CLEAR SKY AND DRY PAVEMENT. AS I WAS COMING AROUND A CURVE THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED, SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES, COMING TO ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP. NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE CLOSE ENOUGH IN FRONT OF OR ON THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE TO WARRANT THE BRAKING SYSTEM TO BE ACTIVATED. THANKFULLY NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE CLOSE ENOUGH BEHIND ME TO CAUSE A COLLISION. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE ALTHOUGH NOTHING WAS DONE AS I TRADED THE CAR IN FOR FEAR OF THE ISSUE OCCURRING AGAIN. THIS WAS THE SECOND INCIDENT. THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED ON A DRY, 2 LANE STREET, WITH A MEDIAN BETWEEN ON COMING TRAFFIC, WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. AS I APPROACHED A GREEN LIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH THERE WAS AN ONCOMING VEHICLE ON THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD, STATIONARY AT THE LIGHT, WHEN THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES, BRINGING MY VEHICLE TO A STOP. NO COLLISION OR INJURIES OCCURRED WITH THIS INCIDENT. ALSO, NO NOTIFICATION TO THE DEALER WITH THIS INCIDENT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND NOTICED THAT THE SUN ROOF WAS SHADED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED OURISMAN HONDA OF TYSONS CORNER (LOCATED AT 1580 SPRING HILL RD, VIENNA, VA 22182, (866) 341-3566) AND INFORMED THEM OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,200. *LN*JB
LOUD NOISES IN BOTH REAR TIRES. TIRES SPEC FOR 80,000 BUT THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 26,767 MILEAGE.
ON 10/16/2019, DEALER REPLACED ALL OF THE FUEL INJECTORS, BECAUSE THEY FAILED HONDA'S TESTS. PICKED UP THE VEHICLE ON THE EVENING OF 10/16/2019 AND DROVE IT HOME. STARTED DRIVING IT TO WORK ON 10/17/2019 AND WHILE ACCELERATING ON THE INTERESTATE, THE ENGINE STARTED MISFIRING (VIOLENT THUDS) AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED FLASHING REPEATEDLY. I LOST POWER AND WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, I PLACED THE VEHICLE IN PARK AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT NO LONGER BLINKED OR ILLUMINATED. HAD THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. VEHICLE DID NOT MISFIRE PRIOR TO THE REPAIRS MADE BY HONDA. ATTACHED IS THE FUEL INJECTOR REPAIRS INVOICE. I ALSO HAD ALL REQUIRED MAINTENANCE AS INDICATED IN THE HONDA SERVICE MANUAL. VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 61000 MILES.
THREE POTENTIALLY SERIOUS ELECTRICAL ISSUES ARE SUMMARIZED: TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH WHILE HIGHWAY DRIVING THE INSTRUMENT PANEL QUICKLY FLASHED THE FOLLOWING WARNING MESSAGES: 1) ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) PROBLEM; 2) ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM; 3) COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM; 4) BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM. DRIVABILITY WAS NOT AFFECTED AT THE TIME, THOUGH THE MESSAGES CAUSED IMMEDIATE CONCERNS ABOUT WHAT CAUSED THESE TO APPEAR FOR NO APPARENT REASON WHILE DRIVING. WEATHER AND ROADS WERE CLEAR. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART THE VEHICLE, WHICH CLEARED THE ERROR DISPLAYS AND INSTRUMENT PANEL RETURNED TO NORMAL OPERATION. WHILE DRIVING (CITY AND HIGHWAY) THE VEHICLE BRIGHTNESS CONTROL ON THE INFO SCREEN WILL RANDOMLY START TO BEEP AND FLASH REPEATEDLY. THE SCREEN CYCLES BETWEEN DARK AND VARIOUS INFO DISPLAYS WHILE THE AUDIO SYSTEM KEEPS PLAYING. THE TOUCHSCREEN CONTROLS ON THE SCREEN ARE NON-RESPONSIVE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. STOPPING AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE RESTORES THE DISPLAY TO NORMAL. THIS OCCURS WHILE THE CAR IS IN MOTION WITH NO PARTICULAR REASONS FOR THE ABNORMAL BEHAVIOR. THIS SITUATION WITH THE DISPLAY HAS REOCCURRED MORE THAN A DOZEN TIMES SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR (DEC 2017). THE MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE HAPPENED NEAR THE END OF A 600-MILE DRIVING DAY. YESTERDAY THE CAR WOULD NOT START, BATTERY ISSUE WAS DETERMINED TO BE THE LIKELY PROBLEM AFTER PLACING A SERVICE ASSIST CALL TO HONDA. A JUMP START AND PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED. MILEAGE APPROX. 19,000. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS OCCURRED SINCE OWNING THE CAR. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED WITHIN A COUPLE OF MONTHS OF OWNING THE CAR. IN BOTH INSTANCES, THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED LESS THAN 2 HOURS. PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT SET IN EITHER CASE.
ON MONDAY, OCTOBER 14 MY 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING MADE A SUDDEN STOP ON A PERFECTLY CLEAR DAY ON THE KELLY AVE BRIDGE LEADING INTO MY BALTIMORE NEIGHBORHOOD. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF US OR BEHIND US. THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM CAME ON AND THE CAR SLAMMED TO A HALT. THANKFULLY NO ONE WAS BEHIND US. I REALLY THOUGHT I HAD BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND--IT WAS EXTREMELY JARRING. I CALLED HONDA CORPORATE AND FILED A COMPLAINT AND AM TAKING THE CAR IN MONDAY TO THE DEALER SO THEY CAN RUN A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK. MY SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE TOLD ME TO CLEAN MY WINDSHIELD AS THAT WAS PROBABLY WHAT CAUSED THE EVENT TO OCCUR. I WAS GOING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH--IF WE HAD BEEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND A TRUCK BEHIND US IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTER.
DRIVER SIDE SEAT MAKES SQUEAKY NOISE EVERY TIME AND EVERYDAY. SPECIFICALLY FROM THE RIGHT SIDE. THIS OCCURRED WHEN CAR HAD ONLY 6000 MILES AND DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THIS IS NORMAL FOR CR V. IT WASN'T A LOT BUT NOW IT'S A BOTHERSOME TO DEAL WITH IT. EVEN A SLIGHT MOVE FROM RIGHT SIDE WILL MAKE THE SEAT SQUEAK LIKE THE THERE'S SOMETHING NOT PROPERLY ALIGNED.
STARTED THE VEHICLE TO GO HOME AND "EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM" APPEARED ON THE DASH, ALONG WITH A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I WAS STATIONARY AND IN A PARKING LOT. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT BACK HOME. TOOK VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER ON 10/14/2019. DETERMINED IT WAS A MISFIRE OF THE FUEL INJECTORS AND THEY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I ALSO HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AS RECOMMENDED BY HONDA SINCE PURCHASING IT NEW, WHICH INCLUDED ENGINE INDUCTION SERVICE. HAD 59680 MILES ON THE ODOMOETER AND HAS THE 1.5L TURBO ENGINE. I ALSO HAD ALL RECALLS COMPLETED WHEN NOTIFIED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH OVER ROAD CONSTRUCTION/PLATES, THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED AND A BEEPING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT CALLED JAY HONDA (175 BROADWAY AVE, BEDFORD, OH 44146, (440) 926-6202) AND WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. *LN CONSUMER STATED I WANT TO SUBMIT THE VIDEO ATTACHED (IT WAS TOO LARGE TO SEND SO I HAD TO PUT IT ON GOOGLE DOCUMENTS. LET ME KNOW IF YOU GET THE ITEM I WAS NOT SURE ABOUT SHARING VIDEOS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE FOR MANY HONDA AND I BELIEVE THIS OCCURS WHEN YOU GO OVER METAL PLATES ON THE ROAD. THIS IS VERY CONCERNING TO ME, LUCKILY I WAS GOING ON A SLOW ROAD AND NOT DOWN A FAST HIGHWAY. VIDEO LINK ATTACHED *JB
ALL WARNING SYSTEMS FOR SAFETY FEATURES LIT UP FOR NO REASON. VEHICLE LOST 80% OF POWER AND COULD BARELY GET IT HOME.
MY FIRST SCENARIO WAS A WEEK AGO I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT WITH NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME. ONCE THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I ACCELERATED AND JUST AS I WAS ABOUT TO PASS THE INTERSECTION MY CAR GAVE A BRAKE WARNING ON MY ODOMETER SCREEN AND ABRUBTY BRAKED. THERE WAS NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME NOR A PEDESTRICAN OTHER THAN A CAR THAT ALMOST REAR-ENDED ME. THERE WERE CLEAR ROAD CONDITONS. MY SECOND SCENARIO I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR GAVE THE SAME WARNING TO BRAKE WITH NO CARS FOR ONE HUNDRED FEET. MY BRAKED ABRUPTLY AND SENT ME DRIFTING AT LEAST TEN FEET FORWARD. IM FEELING EXTREMELY UNSAFE IN MY CAR AT THIS POINT.
AT EXACTLY TWO YEARS OLD, THE BATTERY DIED. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN FOR A SOFTWARE UPDATE BUT OF COURSE, MY VEHICLE DIDN'T NEED UPDATE, IT NEEDED A NEW BATTERY DUE TO DEAD CELL THAT HAPPENED WITHIN SIX HOURS. THE TOP SIDES OF THE BODY HAS RIPPLES DOWN BOTH SIDES. WAS TOLD THIS IS USUALLY CAUSE BY ROOF RACK (I DON'T HAVE ROOF RACK) OR BY CAR WASH (MY CAR HAS NEVER BEEN THROUGH A CAR WASH. I WON'T EVEN LET DEALER WASH IT WHEN I'M THERE). THE CAR BRAKES HARD EVEN WHEN THERE IS NO OBSTRUCTION IN FRONT OF ME. THE CRUISE, LANE ASSIST, MITIGATION WILL ALL SHUT OFF AT VARIOUS TIMES SAYING RADAR IS OFF/BLOCKED. ON 10/08/19 WHILE DRIVING, THE LCD SCREEN STARTED BEEPING, FLASHING AND GOING BLACK. NOTHING WOULD WORK. CAR IS BECOMING DANGEROUS TO BE ON ROADWAY. FILED COMPLAINT WITH HONDA ON A COUPLE ISSUES. SORRY FOR MY LUCK, IT'S NOW OUT OF WARRANTY DUE TO MILEAGE.
WHEN I GO TO HONDA DEALERSHIP, THEY TELL ME I HAVE NO RECALLS ON MY CAR, ALTHOUGH IM READING EVERYWHERE ELSE, AND IM GETTING NOTICES IN THE MAIL ON A FEW OF THEM. I FEEL LIKE IM BEING LIED TO ABOUT MY CAR AND IM AFRAID THAT MY CAR IS GOING TO FALL APART THE LONGER I KEEP IT. I WOULD LIKE TO SEE IF I CAN GET SOMEONE TO ADVOCATE FOR ME ON THE ISSIES THAT I AM HAVING WITH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP/CORPORATION. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK THREE DAYS AGO, AND I COULD NOT GET MY CAR TO SHIFT INTO REVERSE, I RELEASED THE SHIFT BUTTON AND IT POPPED OUT ONTO MY FLOORBOARD. HONDA NOW SAYS THEY WILL NOT COVER THE FULL COST OF REPAIR. MY RECALL THAT I WAS SUPPOSED TO HAVE DONE ABOUT MY MOTOR LEAKING GAS INTO THE OIL WAS NEVER REPAIRED AND THEY ARE TELLING ME THAT EVEN THOUGH I GOT THE NOTICE IN THE MAIL, MY VEHICLE SHOWS DOES NOT NEED REPAIRED. PLEASE HELP ME. I HAVE NEVER FELT SO HELPLESS AND THEY TELL ME I WAS NEVER SENT A RECALL NOTICE, WHEN I HAVE IT IN MY HAND.
CAR WINDOWS ROLL DOWN BY THEMSELVES WITHOUT ANY CONTACT WITH KEY FOB. THIS HAPPENED WHEN CAR WAS NOT TURNED ON.
THE OIL LEVEL HAS CONSISTENTLY INCREASED AFTER EVERY OIL CHANGE, AND HAS HAD THE SMELL OF GASOLINE, EVEN WITHIN 1200 MILES. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF HONDA ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, BUT THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM SINCE I LIVE IN A WARM CLIMATE AREA, AND THEY INSIST, IN THE FACE OF CLEAR EVIDENCE, THAT ONLY COLD CLIMATES HAVE THE PROBLEM. 1,168 MILES AFTER AN OIL AND FILTER CHANGE, I SMELLED GAS FROM THE DIPSTICK, SO I SENT THE OIL IN FOR ANALYSIS. THE REPORT CAME BACK WITH CRITICAL (>5%) DILUTION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS MANY PEOPLE MAY NOT KNOW THAT THEIR ENGINES MAY SIEZE, OR JUST STOP RUNNING, DUE TO LACK OF LUBRICATION.
MY 2017 CRV-EX HAS HAD ITS BATTERY DRAINED TWICE. WITH ONLY 4600 MILES DRIVEN. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY DRAINED AFTER 2 DAYS TO LESS THEN 24 HOURS. I'M ON MY THIRD TIME NOW.
SHIFTER NOD BROKE AND SNAPPED FROM MY HONDA CRV 2017 TODAY. IT'S A NEW CAR AND THIS IS A DEFECT SAFETY HAZARD FOR ANY DRIVER. I CAN SEE IT'S A VERY CHEAP PLASTIC THE WAY THE NOD IS MADE OF. I WANT TO REPORT TO HONDA SO IT'S GETTING COVERED THE REPAIR.
SHIFT KNOB BUTTON POPPED OUT YESTERDAY, SATURDAY 9/28/19, WHILE IN STATIONARY POSITION SHIFTING FROM PARK TO DRIVE. HAD TO KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE UNTIL I COULD LOCATE THE SPRING THAT POPPED OUT. WILL HAVE TO CAREFULLY HOLD THE BUTTON IN PLACE TO SHIFT AND MAKE SURE IT DOESN'T FALL OUT WHILE IN MOTION UNTIL I CAN GET TO DEALER TO FIX FIRST THING MONDAY.
I WAS DRIVING MY HONDA CR-V ON A CITY STREET ALL OFF SUDDEN THE LOW TIRE PRESSURE AND BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE CAME ON AND THE CAR JUST STALLED AND WON'T START. ONCE I GOT OFF THE CAR, THE LOCKED AND I COULDN'T UNLOCK THE DOOR ANYMORE. I TOWED IT HOME AS THE DEALERSHIP WAS CLOSED FOR THE DAY. NOW THE LIGHTS COME ON AND THE DASH LIGHTS UP AND I CAN'T TURN IT OFF.
2X IN 3 MONTHS WHILE DRIVING WE HAVE HAD THE FOLLOWING ERROR MESSAGES: 1) ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL (ACC) PROBLEM. 2) ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM 3) COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM 4) BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM
ISSUE WITH DRAINED BATTERY/ VSA MODULATOR. VEHICLE LIGHTS WON'T TURN OFF WHEN SHUTTING OFF VEHICLE. KEY FOB WILL NOT WORK BECAUSE VEHICLE BATTERY WILL DIE. ONCE JUMPED, VEHICLE WILL DIE AGAIN. BATTERY HAS BEEN CHECKED AND IT DOESN'T SEEM TO NEED REPLACING YET NO ACTIVE RECALL REPORTED.
GEAR SHIFT KNOB SNAPPED OFF MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SHIFT INTO OR OUT OF PARK OR REVERSE. THIS CAR IS JUST OVER 2 YEARS OLD WITH 16,000 MILES. FORTUNATELY FOR ME, THE CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN IT HAPPENED - I HAD JUST STARTED IT TO PULL OUT OF A PARKING SPACE WHILE ON VACATION.
I WAS DRIVING WITH MY WIFE AS A PASSENGER ON A 4-LANE HIGHWAY (2 LANES IN EACH DIRECTION). TRAFFIC WAS LIGHT. WE WERE TRAVELLING AT ABOUT 45MPH IN THE RIGHT HAND LANE ABOUT 500-FEET FROM AN INTERSECTION WHEN I SIGNALED TO CHANGE LANES INTO THE LEFT LANE AS I WOULD BE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT THE INTERSECTION. AS WE WERE MIDWAY INTO THE LANE CHANGE, OUR AUTOMATIC COLLISION AVOIDANCE WARNING FLASHED UP ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL, BEEPED THE ALARM, AND IMMEDIATELY (AND UNEXPECTEDLY) APPLIED THE BRAKES! THE CAR BEHIND US JUST MISSED PLOWING INTO THE BACK OF US BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN BRAKING FOR NO REASONS. THE WEATHER WAS GOOD AND JUST A BIT CLOUDY, SO WEATHER HAD NO BEARING IN THIS, AND THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC OR OBSTACLES NEAR OR IN FRONT OF US TO CAUSE A FALSE COLLISION IMPRESSION ON THE SENSORS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO US SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE AND WE DID NOTIFY OUR HONDA DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT THIS HAPPENS SOMETIMES, ESPECIALLY IN HEAVY RAINS WHEN THE SENSORS "SEE" A HEAVY RAIN AREA AS AN OBJECT. ON TWO PRIOR OCCASIONS WHEN THIS HAPPENED, AGAIN IN CLEAR WEATHER AND NO OBJECTS AROUND, WE WERE ALMOST STRUCK BY A VEHICLE BEHIND US. THIS IS SCAREY, AND I AM GLAD I PAY CLOSE ATTENTION TO MY DRIVING AS IF I DID NOT, THIS SAFETY DEFECT WOULD KILL US.
SILVER BUTTON ON GEAR SHIFTER POPPED OUT AT SOME POINT WHILE WE WERE DRIVING. DID NOT NOTICE THIS HAPPENING UNTIL WE WENT TO PARK AND SHIFT GEARS. WE WERE ABLE TO PUT THE BUTTON BACK IN AND GET IT INTO PART. CONTINUES TO FALL OUT AND WE GOT STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD TRYING TO BACK INTO OUR DRIVEWAY. ONE TIME THE CAR WOULD NOT REGISTER THAT THE SHIFTER WAS IN PARK (EVEN THOUGH DISPLAY INDICATED P). AND WOULD BEEP WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF. IT'S GOING INTO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY FOR REPAIR. MULTIPLE OTHER COMPLAINTS FOUND ABOUT THIS EXACT ISSUE.
ALL ELECTRICAL WARNING LIGHTS GO ON. BEEN IN SHOP 3 TIMES WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS )TWICE IN THE LAST 2 WEEKS) SUPPOSEDLY GIVING OFF DIFFERENT CODES EVEN THOUGH THE SYMPTOMS ARE THE SAME. TWICE VEHICLE WAS MOVING BUT DRY WEATHER. ONCE STARTED AFTER BEING IN GARAGE. DEALER KEEPS SAYING IT IS DIFFERENT PROBLEMS CAUSING THE SAME THING WHICH CONCERNS ME.
TIRES SLIPS IN RAIN AND CAR HAD ONLY 15000 MILES WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED. WENT TO BILL PAGE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED MY 2017 HONDA CR V, THEY SAID TIRES ARE WORN OUT AND WILL NEED REPLACEMENT SOON. I CONTACTED BRIDGESTONE AND THEY SAID WE DON'T WARRANT ANY WARRANTY ON DEALERSHIP CARS THAT ARE EQUIPPED WITH THEIR TIRES. NOW I'VE ALREADY REPLACED 2 TIRES ONLY AT 30K MILES. THESE TIRES SHOULD AT LEAST LAST 50K MILES.
I WAS DRIVING HOME WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL OF THE WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASH TURNED ON AND MY BRAKES DID NOT WORK SO I COULD STOP THE VEHICLE SO I SHIFTED INTO PARK TO FINALLY STOP THE CAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DIAL GEAR POPPED OFF THE CONSOLE AND THE CONTACT COULD NOT FIND THE GEAR KNOB. THE CONTACT HAD TO LOOK FOR THE PIECE WHILE TRYING TO STEER THE VEHICLE TO SAFETY. THE CONTACT CALLED METRO HONDA (9399 AUTOPLEX ST, MONTCLAIR, CA 91763, (909) 542-9637) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WOULD CHECK FOR THE REPLACEMENT PART AND REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 21,000.
EMISSIONS ISSUE DETECTED, THEN EVENTUAL ERROR CODES DIAGNOSED AS P0172 AND P291F. REPLACED FUEL INJECTORS AND HIGH PRESSURE PIPE UNDER SERVICE BULLETINS 10=8-025, 18-027, AND 19-015. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED THROUGH A REDESIGN AND RECALL. FAILURE OF THIS COMPONENT COULD CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY, CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE.
I RECENTLY PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA CR-V WITH THE INTENT OF USING IT AS A 5 PASSENGER VEHICLE. HOWEVER, THE REAR SEAT BELT DOES NOT ALLOW TO SAFELY BUCKLE 3 CHILDREN IN THE BACK EVEN THOUGH IT WAS PURCHASED AS A 5 PASSENGER VEHICLE. THERE ARE 3 SEAT BELTS PROVIDED BUT THEY CROSS OVER EACH OTHER IN A MANNER THAT MAKES THE SEAT BELTS TWIST AND DOES NOT SAFELY BUCKLE 3 CHILDREN IN AT ONE TIME.
WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY (APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH) ON A CITY STREET, THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED WHEN APPROACHING A RAILROAD CROSSING FOR NO APPARENT REASON. THE BRAKING FORCE WAS STRONG ENOUGH TO ENGAGE THE RESTRAINT OF THE SEAT BELTS.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL ON DIPSTICK WAY ABOVE WHAT IT SHOULD BE AND THERE IS A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL IN THE ENGINE OIL. THE HONDA MAINTENANCE MINDER SAYS 70% ENGINE OIL LIFE IS LEFT. ALSO THE SEAT HEATERS DON'T SEEM TO WORK. BASED ON WHAT I READ ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE SOMEHOW LINKED WITH THE ENGINE OIL DILUTION ISSUE
COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM STOPPED CAR FROM 25 MPH ON STRAIGHT LEVEL ROAD WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. OCCURRED ONE TIME. AMBER BRAKE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON A FEW OCCASIONS WHILE RIDING ON STRAIGHT LEVEL ROAD WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF VEHICLE. ALL THESE OCCURRENCES HAPPENED DURING GOOD, DRY WEATHER. ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL INTERMITTENTLY KEEPS SPEED AT 1-2 MPH BELOW SET SPEED ON INTERSTATE WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF VEHICLE ON STRAIGHT LEVEL ROAD IN GOOD WEATHER. VEHICLE TAKEN TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE SYSTEMS ARE NORMAL. DEALER ALSO TOLD ME THAT THESE SYSTEMS ARE CONNECTED AND IF ONE COMPONENT FAILS, ALL WILL FAIL.
WHILE DRIVING ON A SECONDARY ROAD, I CROSSED SOME ROAD CONSTRUCTION THAT HAD A LARGE METAL PLATE ACROSS THE ROAD COVERING WHERE THERE HAD BEEN SOME DIGGING. MY CAR SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT WARMING CAME TO ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP WHILE AUTOMATICALLY BRAKING WHILE CROSSING THIS METAL PLATE, ALMOST CAUSING ME TO BE REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER CAR. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH IN A SUBURB AREA. THIS HAPPENED AT LEAST 2 OTHER TIMES WHEN I CROSSED THIS SAME PLATE ON THE ROAD BEFORE AVOIDING THIS AREA WITH THIS CAR. VERY SCARY AND DANGEROUS AS THERE WAS NO GOOD REASON TO STOP THE CAR.
I HAVE PURCHASED 2017 MODEL HONDA NEW CRV EX-L WITH NAVIGATION IN OCTOBER 2017 IN TENNESSEE. FROM THE LAST 1 YEAR I AM HAVING A MAJOR PROBLEM WHICH IS EFFECTING MY HEALTH AND MY FAMILY HEALTH. FROM ALMOST 10 MONTHS, I HAVE THIS PROBLEM. PROBLEM: WHENEVER I SWITCH ON THE AC OR FAN OR HEAT, I HAVE A VERY BAD ENGINE SMELL/ OIL SMELL. I AM UNABLE TO BREATH IN THE CAR, I HAVE BURNING SENSATION IN MY EYES. I VOMITED COUPLE OF TIME BECAUSE OF THIS SMELL. MY WIFE AND MY 5 YEAR OLD SON ALSO FEELS THE SAME . ITS AFFECTING THEIR HEALTH AS WELL. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO ODONELL HONDA SERVICE CENTER LOCATED AT 21043 THREE TIMES AND THEY JUST KEEP FOOLING ME SAYING THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM IN THE CAR AND THEY CANT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY WERE USELESS, UNPROFESSIONAL PEOPLE WHO DOES NOT KNOW WHAT TO DO. THEY BEHAVED VERY BAD AS WELL. AND ALWAYS GAVE LAME EXCUSES. THEN I TOOK MY CAR TO HONDA SERVICE CENTER AT OWING MILLS, MD. THEY WERE NICE ENOUGH TO CHECK MY CAR AND THEY FOUND TWO ISSUES WITH THE CAR AND FIXED IT AND PROMISED THAT I WILL NOT HAVE ANY ISSUES. BUT WITH IN A WEEK I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I AM HELPLESS NOW.I CANT DRIVE MY CAR BECAUSE I CANT BREATHE IN THAT SMELL. ITS AFFECTING MY HEALTH. I CANT GO AGAIN AND AGAIN TO DEALER SHOP TO GET MY CAR FIXED. I AM WRITING TO YOU SO THAT IF YOU CAN HELP ME BEFORE I TAKE THIS MATTER TO PUBLIC AND FIGHT LEGALLY. IF SOMETHING HAPPENS TO ME OR MY FAMILY - WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT. HOPING FOR A RESPONSE FROM YOU. THANKS IN ADVANCE AND APPRECIATE YOUR TIME LOOKING INTO THIS.
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECTIVE BRIDGESTONE TIRES ON VEHICLE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TIRES WERE PREMATURELY WORN AND 3 OF THE 4 TIRES HAD DIFFERENT WEAR. *JS
I WAS ACCELERATING ONTO A HIGHWAY WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION AND POWER, MADE A HIGH PITCHED SQUEAL WITH RECEIPT OF THE FOLLOWING WARNINGS/ALARMS: BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING, LOSS OF COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM, ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, HILL ASSIST PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, POWER STEERING SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE HOLD PROBLEM, EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM TO NAME A FEW. THIS IS MORE THAN TROUBLESOME, THE GUY BEHIND ME ALMOST HIT ME AND HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. MORE RECENTLY I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT NIGHT WHEN I LOST MY HEADLIGHTS AND PARKING LIGHTS. IN ADDITION THE FOLLOWING ALARMS LOCKED IN BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, LANE KEEPING ASSIST PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE SYSTEM PROBLEM, AUTO HIGH BEAM SYSTEM PROBLEM. ITS ONE THING TO GET WARNINGS ITS ANOTHER TO LOOSE YOUR HEADLIGHTS AND PARKING LIGHTS ON A BUSY DARK HIGHWAY. I SHUDDER TO THINK WHAT COULD HAVE HAPPENED. HONDA DOES NOT KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING. HOW CAN THEY SELL A $30,000 + VEHICLE AND HAVE SAFETY ISSUES SUCH AS THESE? SOMEBODY NEEDS TO ACT QUICKLY BEFORE FOLKS ARE KILLED.

EVERY INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON AND FLASHED ON MY DASHBOARD WHEN I WAS DRIVING, AS WELL AS A CRUISE CONTROL MALFUNCTION WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, CAUSING THE SYSTEM TO SHUT OFF CRUISE CONTROL. THE INDICATOR LIGHTS THAT FLASH ON THE DASHBOARD WHEN THIS ERROR OCCURS ARE AS FOLLOWS: BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM ALL WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM PROBLEM TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM LANE KEEPING ASSIST PROBLEM ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA) PROBLEM ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS) PROBLEM I HAVE HAD THESE LIGHTS GO OFF MULTIPLE TIMES IN DIFFERENT CONTEXTS. THE FIRST TIME I WAS IN A PARKING LOT AND TURNED ON MY CAR AND ALL INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON, THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE ROAD, THE THIRD TIME I WAS PARKING MY VEHICLE AND THEN THE INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON. I HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR TO MY HONDA DEALER THREE DIFFERENT TIMES WITH NO SOLUTION. EACH TIME, EVENTUALLY THE INDICATOR LIGHTS GO OFF, USUALLY AFTER STARTING AND RESTARTING THE CAR OR REBOOTING THE COMPUTER CAUSES THEM TO TURN OFF.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE CONTACT'S FRIEND WAS DRIVING 75 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT'S FRIEND CLAIMED THAT SHE SMELLED AN ODOR COMING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS PULLED OVER AND TURNED OFF. WHEN THE CONTACT'S FRIEND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE VEHICLE, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO PORT CHARLOTTE HONDA (1252 TAMIAMI TRAIL, PORT CHARLOTTE, FL 33953, 941-564-3343) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE FAILED. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY REPAIRED THE MOTOR AND CHANGED THE BATTERY; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE DAYS LATER. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE SAME DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE BATTERY WAS NEVER CHANGED AND THAT THEY WOULD REPLACE THE BATTERY TO REPAIR THE DEFECT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED REGARDING THE FAILURES AND COMPLAINT NUMBER: 09758024 WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,600.
WHILE STOPPED IN A CHICK FIL A DRIVE THROUGH, THE SEATBELT TIGHTENED DOWN ON MY 11 YEAR OLD AND WOULD NOT RELEASE.HE UNBUCKLED IT, BUT IT WAS WRAPPED AROUND HIM AND THE BELT WOULD NOT ALLOW YOU TO PULL DOWN FROM THE CEILING TO GIVE SLACK. IT WOULD NOT MOVE MORE THAN AN INCH AND WAS CONSTRICTING HIS CHEST AND WAIST AREA. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND ON AND IT WOULD NOT RELEASE. I READ THE OWNERS MANUAL AND THERE WAS NO WAY TO EMERGENCY RELEASE. I HAD TO OBTAIN A PAIR OF SCISSORS AND CUT THE BELT TO GET HIM OUT. IT IS FELT THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. HE COULD NOT GET OUT OF THE BELT AND THE CAR WAS NOT EVEN MOVING. PICTURES ARE AVAILABLE.
WHILE RIDING IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, MY DAUGHTER TRIED TO PULL THE BELT FROM THE CEILING TO LOOSEN IT. THE BELT WOULD NOT ALLOW HER TO LOOSEN IT AND WAS LOCKED DOWN. SHE HAD TO UNBUCKLE IT TO LOOSEN IT. THE CAR WAS NOT STOPPED AND HAD NOT HAD BRAKES APPLIED. WE WERE ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IT SHOULD NOT BE LOCKED UNLESS THERE WAS HARD BRAKING. SHE WAS UNSECURED WHEN SHE HAD TO UNBUCKLE IT TO LOOSEN IT.
TL* THE CONTACT'S FRIEND OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL WITHOUT WARNING. WHEN THE CONTACT'S FRIEND CHECKED THE OIL, THE OIL TANK HAD OVERFLOWED AND A FUEL ODOR WAS DETECTED ON THE OIL DIPSTICK. THE CONTACT'S FRIEND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DON AYRES HONDA (4740 LIMA RD, FORT WAYNE, IN 46808, 260-484-0551) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY COULD REPLACE THE OIL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.
I HAVE READ THAT THERE ARE PROBLEMS WITH HONDA'S 1.5 LITER TURBO EARTHDREAMS ENGINE RELATED TO GASOLINE IN THE ENGINE OIL. I CHECK MY ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK TODAY AND DISCOVERED THERE IS INDEED GASOLINE IN IT (PER SMELLING IT). I HAVE FILED A CASE WITH HONDA, BUT SINCE THEY DON'T HAVE A FIX FOR THIS YET, I AM WORRIED THAT HAVING GAS IN THE ENGINE OIL IS GOING TO CAUSE SEVERE DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. I HAVE ASKED HONDA WHAT THEY INTEND TO DO TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM, BUT HAVE NOT RECEIVED A RESPONSE AS OF YET. I HAD AN OIL CHANGE APPROXIMATELY 2,000 MILES AGO. THERE IS ABOUT 39,950 MILES ON THE CAR. I HAVE NOT YET NOTICED ANY MAJOR PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE, BUT IT DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE THE POWER IT DID WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED IT. THANK YOU.
THE TOUCHSCREEN IS HORRIBLE. DELAYED RESPONSE OFTEN WHEN TOUCHING ANY OF THE FEATURES LIKE AUDIO, CHANGING PRESET STATIONS ON THE RADIO ETC... FREEZES UP OFTEN AND THE "BRIGHTNESS" FEATURE WOULD APPEAR ON THE SCREEN BY ITSELF AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET RIDE OF IT IS TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF AND RESTART THE ENGINE. I HAVE NUMEROUS VIDEOS OF THE ISSUE. COMPLAINED TO DEALERSHIP EVEN BOUGHT IT IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT WHEN THE ISSUE IS HAPPENING SO THEY CAN SEE IT REALTIME AND TROUBLESHOOT. UNFORTUNATELY THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE ISSUE THE ONLY RESOLUTION WAS TO DO A FACTORY RESET OF THE TOUCHSCREEN. I AM STILL HAVING ISSUES. THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMEND ME TO CONTACT HONDA DIRECTLY TO REPORT ISSUE. THEY CAN'T REPLACE THE TOUCH SCREEN WITHOUT HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE APPROVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ACTIVATION WAS DUE TO A METAL PLATE ON THE ROADWAY, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STOP ABRUPTLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 22,000.
I WAS REAR ENDED ON THE HIGHWAY (101-N) BY A TRUCK GOING 20-30 MPH ABOVE THE SPEED LIMIT. DURING THE COLLISION, THE DRIVER AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. MY SPEED LIMIT WAS 65-70 AND THE TRUCK SPEED LIMIT WAS MORE THAN MINE WHEN I TRY TO GO FASTER WAS STILL NOT ABLE TO OVIDED. AFTER THE CAR SCREENING YOU ARE IN CRASH I WAS A WAKE NOT SURE HOW IT STOPED AND WAS IN SHOCK FOR NOT SURE HOW LONG THEN I SAW A MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN SAYING CONTACTING HONDA BUT NOTHING HAPPEN. I TRY TO TOUCH IT BUT IT NOT WORK. I STOPED THE CAR MOVED THE KEY THEN TRY TO FIND MY TELEPHONE THANK FULLY MY CHARGER CORD WAS ON AND I PULLED IT FROM BEHIND SEAT I CALLED 911 THEN THE POLICE TOOK IT FROM THERE. I HAVE SO MUCH PAIN IN MY HEAD MOSTLY LEFT SIDE AND NEAR MY NECK I AM IN SO MUCH PAIN WHEN I AM IN THE SON MY VISION IS NOT OKEY. AND IF I WALK MORE THEN 15 MINUTES I AM HAVE THE WORST PAIN IN MY FEET LEGS BACK HEAD AND I DO BELIEVE ALL MY BODY IS HURTING BUT SOME OF MORE THEN THE OTHER MY RIBS ARE BETTER BUT LEFT RIBS HURT WHEN I DRIVE MORE THEN 20 MINUTES. I HAD CONSTIPATION FOR THE LAST 5 WEEKS REALIZED LAST WEEK I CAN NOT SMELL WELL AND I REALLY HATE THAT PERSON FOR WHAT HE DID TO ME. I AM NOT SURE IF I WILL EVER BE ABLE TO RECOVER AL AND THAT SO NOT FAIR AND THE WORST THEY RUN A WAY LEFT ME THERE.
STOPPED VEHICLE TO PARK AND WAS UNABLE TO MOVE SHIFT LEVER TO PARK. THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE SHIFT LEVER HAD BROKEN. THE VEHICLE COULD BE TURNED OFF, BUT IT COULD NOT BE STARTED WITHOUT THE SHIFT LEVER MOVING TO PARK. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED BY MANY, MANY USERS!
MESSAGE "SHUTTER GRILLE PROBLEM. POWER REDUCED." WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED ON A UPGRADE TOWING A SMALL TRAILER, THIS MESSAGE APPEARED AND THE SPEED OF THE CRV IMMEDIATELY REDUCED BY APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH, ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. I SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF AND WAITED (VERY SHAKEN) FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND RESTARTED THE CAR AND IT ACTED NORMALLY. THE DEALER DOESN'T SEEM TO KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENED EVEN THOUGH I COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BY THE REDUCTION IN SPEED. (AND IT HAS HAPPENED TO OTHERS WITH CRVS WHO HAVE REPORTED THIS ONLINE.) THIS CAR MOSTLY DRIVEN IN CANADA.
THE VEHICLE BRIGHTNESS CONTROL ON THE CENTER SCREEN BEEPS AND FLASHES AT RANDOM TIMES. THE BEEPING ALONE IS VERY DISTRACTING. THE SCREEN OFTEN GOES DARK. IT'S NECESSARY TO RESTART THE VEHICLE IN ORDER TO "RESET" THE DISPLAY, A POSSIBLY DANGEROUS SITUATION ON THE HIGHWAY. VEHICLE IS TYPICALLY IN MOTION EACH TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED ON VARIOUS ROADWAYS. THIS SITUATION WITH THE DISPLAY HAS REOCCURRED APPROXIMATELY TEN TIMES THUS FAR.
DRIVING ON HIGHWAY AT 70 MILES PER HOUR IN BEAUTIFUL 80 DEGREE WEATHER DAY ON AN AUGUST AFTERNOON - NO RAIN, NO OBSTRUCTIONS - WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP WITH WARNINGS ON THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM, BRAKE FAILURE, LANE ASSIST SYSTEM - EVERYTHING FLASHING AND BEEPING. I IMMEDIATELY TURN ALL THE ASSIST SYSTEMS OFF BUT THINGS STILL LITE UP AND WARNING. WHEN I AM SAFELY ABLE TO GET OFF THE HIGHWAY TO STOP AND TURN CAR OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON ALL THE WARNINGS GO AWAY AND APPEAR TO BE FINE. SENSORS ARE CLEAN AND CLEAR OF OBSTRUCTIONS. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. VERY SCARY! I KEEP THE CAR CLEAN AND THE SENSORS CLEAN AND UNOBSTRUCTED. LESS THAN 25,000 MILES ON THIS CAR AND IT HAS HAD ISSUES OF NOT STARTING AND DASHBOARD FLASHING NUMEROUS TIMES. DEALERSHIP ACTUALLY TOURED IT IN ON ONE OCCASION WHEN IT WOULDN'T START. COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING AND HAD US PICK IT UP. NEXT MORNING WOULD NOT START AGAIN. THEY FINALLY REPLACED THE BATTERY. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SAFE, RELIABLE CAR AND NOW I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ANY DISTANCE WITH FEAR OF FAILURES.
HELLO, I HAVE 3 CONCERNING ISSUES. 1. MY CAR STALL FROM TIME TO TIME. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO ACCELERATE WHILE DRIVING. 2. MY SIDE MIRROR BLIND SPOT SOMETIMES DOES NOT WORK AND FALSELY GOES OFF. 3. MY CONSOLE SCREEN HAS GONE BLACK AND DOES NOT WORK THANKS FOR HEARING MY ISSUES. THANKS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM
THIS MORNING AS I WAS DRIVING I WENT THROUGH A 4-WAY INTERSECTION. I WAS HALF WAY THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WHEN MY CAR ANNOUNCED LANE DEPARTURE. AT THAT TIME THE VEHICLE SHOT OVER TO THE RIGHT AND HIT THE CURB AT THE END OF THE INTERSECTION. I SHREDDED MY TIRE, AND HAD TO PLACE THE SPARE ON THE VEHICLE. I HAVE BEEN TO HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES FOR THESE ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. WHILE DRIVING I HAVE BEEN GO AT A SPEED AROUND 45-70 MPH, AND THE VEHICLE WILL FLASH BRAKE. AT THAT TIME THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES WILL LOCK UP. THERE WAS NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME FOR ANY THE OCCASIONS. HONDA TOLD ME TO SWITCH MY EZ PASS RESPONDER TO MAKE SURE THAT WASN'T CAUSING INTERFERENCE. I SWITCHED IT, AND IT KEPT OCCURRING. THIS MORNING THE CONCERNS I BROUGHT UP AT MY LAST SERVICE ABOUT WHAT IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT ALMOST BECAME A REALITY. LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ONE ON THE CORNER WAITING TO CROSS THE ROAD. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING ME THERE WILL BE AN UPDATE, BUT SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE NOW. LIVES ARE AT RISK. IF I KNEW HOW TO GO BY DOING A LEMON I WOULD. I STARTED REPORTING ISSUES AT 18K, AND HAVE CONSTANTLY BEEN DOING REPORTING OCCURRENCES WERE THE VEHICLE HAS MALFUNCTIONED.

DRIVING ON HIGHWAY STRAIGHT AHEAD, DAY TIME, GOOD WEATHER. FAILURE WARNING LIGHTS FOR, CRUISE CONTROL LANE DEPARTURE,COLLISION MITIGATION, BRAKING SYSTEM, PASS SEAT AIR BAG BRAKES, ALL CAME ON. THIS IS 6TH TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED. MOST LIGHTS RESET AFTER CAR WAS RESTARTED PASS SEAT AIR BAG LIGHT ONLY RESET AFTER ANOTHER HOUR AND ANOTHER RESTART OF VEHICLE
MY 2017 HONDA CRV-TOURING WAS JUST ABOUT 10K & RECENTLY, WHEN TURNING ON AC WHILE RUNNING, ENGINE IS MAKING VERY LOUD NOISE. IT WAS NOT SUPPOSED TO BE BUILT IN THIS WAY FOR TOP OF THE LINE OF CRV MODEL. SINCE MY CAR IS UNDER MANUFACTURER WARRANTY SUCH THAT I WANT IT TO BE CHECKED TO DEFECT THE ISSUE.
THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM FAILED. HONDA WILL NOT AUTHORIZE REPAIR, STATING IF THEY REPLACED THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM, IT WOULD FAIL AGAIN. THE DEALER AND HONDA SAY THAT THE CRV'S HAVE SOME TYPE OF ELECTRONIC PROBLEM THAT IS BLOWING OUT NAVIGATION SYSTEMS AND THAT THEY WILL NOT REPLACE OR REPAIR THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM UNTIL THEIR TECHS CAN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. THEIR ONLY RESPONSE TO MY QUESTIONS ARE FOR ME TO CALL EVERY 30 DAYS TO SEE IF THEY HAVE FOUND OUT THE CAUSE AND TO BUY A MAP IF I TRAVEL. NO SERVICE, NO REPAIR AND NO ANSWERS.
BUTTON ON SHIFTER KNOB HAS BROKEN OFF AT APPROXIMATELY 37,000 MILES. CANNOT SHIFT CAR OUT OF PARK.
CAR HAS STALLED WHEN IN MOTION. STALLING HAPPENED ONCE ON HIGHWAY, 2-3 OTHER TIMES ON SECONDARY ROADS. IT FEELS LIKE CAR "MISSES A BEAT" THEN STRUGLES TO REIGNITE. ENGINE DID NOT STOP COMPLETELY. AT TIMES THERE HAS BEEN A SMELL OF GAS IN THE CAR WHEN IN MOTION.
IN MOTION 45MPH ON A CITY STREET HEADING STRAIGHT AND 'BRAKE' FLASHED ON THE DASHBOARD AND THEN APPLIED ITSELF INSTANTLY AND ABRUPTLY TO A STOP. THERE WERE NO CARS OR OBSTACLES IN FRONT FOR THE BRAKE TO BE APPLIED. HOWEVER, THE GROUND WAS SLIGHTLY WET FROM SPRINKLERS THAT HAD SPRAYED THE ROAD WHICH MAKES NO SENSE IF IT BRAKED FOR THAT BECAUSE I HAVE DRIVEN IN RAIN STORMS ALREADY AND NOTHING HAPPENED.THERE WERE CARS BEHIND ME THAT HAD TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKES AND SWERVE TO AVOID REAR ENDING ME.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 23 MPH, THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE FEATURE MALFUNCTIONED AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED ABRUPTLY. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE BRAKE SENSOR INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. AFTER SHIFTING INTO PARK AND BACK INTO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. DURING THE FAILURE, THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES PRESENT AHEAD OF THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. CLINTON HONDA (1511 US-22, CLINTON, NJ) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
MY CAR WAS AUTOMATICALLY BRAKED AND STOPPED LAST WEEK WITHOUT ANY REASON . THERE WAS NO CAR NEAR ME , I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MPH ...THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IT HAPPENS SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN 2017--IT BREAKS FOR ABOUT 5 SECONDS, THEN I WAS IN CONTROL OF THE CAR...THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY
THE VEHICLE'S SHIFT KNOB BUTTON CAME LOOSE AND FELL OUT. AT THE TIME, I WAS PARKING THE VEHICLE IN A PARKING LOT AND ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT IT FROM DRIVE TO PARK. IN ADDITION TO THE BUTTON, A METAL SPRING AND MANY PIECES OF BROKEN PLASTIC FELL OUT OF THE SHIFT KNOB. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO JAM A SCREWDRIVER INTO THE SHIFT KNOB AND SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. THE VEHICLE HAD JUST OVER 12,000 MILES WHEN THIS HAPPENED.
WARRANTY EXTENSION:2017-18 CR-V - GASOLINE SEEPING INTO ENGINE OIL. NO PROBLEMS HAVE OCCURRED YET, BUT A ONE YEAR EXTENSION ON A WARRANTY IS A TOTALLY INSUFFICIENT REMEDY TO THE PROBLEM THAT CAN SIGNIFICANTLY REDUCE A VEHICLES LIFE IF THE SYMPTOMS BECOME EVIDENT AFTER THE SHORT WARRANTY EXTENSION PERIOD. A RECALL THAT REQUIRES A PERMANENT FIX TO THE PROBLEM IS IN ORDER. SEE THIS LINK: HTTPS://WWW.MOTOR1.COM/NEWS/268789/HONDA-CR-V-ENGINE-TROUBLES-REPORT/
1.5 L TURBO, RISING OIL LEVEL - GASOLINE ODOR ON DIPSTICK.
THE RIGHT MIRROR LANE INDICATOR MALFUNCTIONS AT DIFFERENT TIMES. THE MALFUNCTION INDICATES THAT THERE IS A VEHICLE IN THE RIGHT LANE WHEN THERE IS NONE. HONDA REFUSES TO LOOK INTO BECAUSE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME. IV'E HAD IT TO THE DEALERSHIP 4 TIMES BUT THE PROBLEM IS NOT SHOWING UP AS A MALFUNCTION CODE.WHEN THE MALFUNCTION OCCURS THE RIGHT MIRROR INDICATOR LIGHT REMAINS ON AND IF I TRY TO USE MY RIGHT TURN SIGNAL THE SYSTEM BEEPS AS IF THERE IS A CAR IN THE RIGHT LANE WHEN THERE IN NONE. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ON GOINGS FROM THE FIRST WEEK I PURCHASED THE VAN.
WE HAD DIFFICULTY SHIFTING OUR CRV INTO PARK ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS OVER A PERIOD OF A COUPLE OF DAYS. EVENTUALLY WE WERE TOTALLY UNABLE TO GET IT INTO PARK, AND THUS COULD NOT GET THE KEY TO THE COMPLETELY OFF POSITION AND REMOVE IT, SO THE BATTERY WOULD HAVE BEEN DRAINED IF WE LEFT IT THAT WAY. FORTUNATELY THE FINAL FAILURE WAS IN OUR OWN DRIVEWAY. QUICK RESEARCH ON THE WEB POINTED US TO THE PROBLEM MANY HAVE HAD WITH THE BUTTON ON THE SIDE OF THE SHIFTER THAT MUST BE PRESSED TO GET IN AND OUT OF PARK. SURE ENOUGH, WE FOUND THE BUTTON WAS BROKEN INSIDE AND NOT FUNCTIONAL. THE BUTTON AND SPRING FELL OUT AS WE INSPECTED IT. THOUGH WE'RE GRATEFUL IT DIDN'T POP OFF WHILE WE WERE DRIVING, IT SEEMS CLEAR THIS IS A FREQUENT FAILURE THAT CAN CREATE A DANGEROUS SITUATION. SEEMS LIKE THERE SHOULD BE AN OFFICIAL RECALL.
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON FELL OFF WHILE SHIFTING FROM P TO D, RENDERING SHIFTER UNUSABLE
I WAS DRIVING MY 2017 EX-L ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE TRANSMISSION STARTED FEELING STRANGE. IT WAS STEPPING DOWN, THEN BACK TO NORMAL CONSISTENTLY EVEN IF I DIDN'T CHANGE THE PRESSURE I HAD ON THE ACCELERATOR. THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN MANY SYSTEMS STARTED REPORTING PROBLEMS ON MY DASHBOARD, ALL AT THE SAME TIME. REPORTED PROBLEMS WERE: BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM ALL WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM PROBLEM TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM LANE KEEPING ASSIST PROBLEM ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA) PROBLEM ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS) PROBLEM THE CAR LOST POWER AS I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND SHUT IT OFF. AFTER A WHILE, THE PROBLEM CODES WENT AWAY. HONDA HAS TRIED TO FIX IT THREE TIMES AND SAYS NOTHING SHOWS AS WRONG. THE LATEST CASE NUMBER IS 09360895 IT HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES SO FAR
THE BACKSEAT SEAT BELTS ARE UNSAFE. THE MIDDLE PASSENGER'S BELT CROSSES OVER THE LEFT PASSENGER'S BELT TO LATCH. VERY UNSAFE AND INCONVENIENT. WAITING FOR A RECALL.
2017 HONDA CR-V EX. THE SHIFT KNOB BUTTON (WHICH SHIFTS THE CAR OUT OF PARK AND INTO DRIVE) BROKE OFF FROM ITS SPRING AND IT WOULD NOT REGISTER THE CAR BEING IN PARK TO SHUT OFF THE ELECTRONICS IN THE VEHICLE. I WAS FORCED TO DISCONNECT THE NEGATIVE FROM BATTERY WHEN THE CAR IS IN PARK AND RECONNECT WHEN THE IT WAS TIME TO DRIVE SOMEWHERE. WHEN I CONTACTED MY HONDA DEALER, THEY INFORMED ME OF A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. ON A SIDE NOT, MY WIFE ALSO HAS THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL WHICH HAD A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE.
THE OIL LEVEL READING IS ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME THAT IT IS NORMAL FOR THIS ENGINE TO DO THIS. THEY TELL ME THEY DO NOT HAVE A FIX FOR IT. PROBLEM WITH THIS OVERFILLING IS THAT GASOLINE IS DELUTING ENGINE OIL WHICH MAY CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE AND LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT.
TODAY, 7/17/19, I WAS DRIVING WESTBOUND ON MICHIGAN AVE IN SEATTLE, HEADING TO THE ON RAMP TO 509/99SOUTH/1ST AVE BRIDGE AREA. THE ROAD HERE HAS MULTIPLE LARGE METAL PLATES FLAT ON THE ROAD WAY, IT IS TWO LANES EACH DIRECTION AND MULTIPLE STOP LIGHTS. I WAS IN HEAVY TRAFFIC, DRIVING AT A SLOW AND STEADY RATE (ABOUT 20MPH OR LESS) AS I WAS GOING OVER THE ROUGH PATCH OF ROAD. THE CAR SUDDENLY AND WITHOUT MY PROMPTING BRAKED HARSHLY (AND THE SCREEN SAID BRAKE!) AND CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE METAL PLATES. IT WAS LIGHTLY DRIZZLING, BUT I HAD NOT BRAKED AS MY SPEED WAS ALREADY SLOW ENOUGH ON THAT ROAD. I CAN ONLY ASSUME THAT THE CAR SENSED THAT THE PLATES WERE AN OBSTRUCTION ON THE ROAD AND AUTOMATICALLY BRAKED. IT IS A MIRACLE THAT THE CAR BEHIND ME STOPPED IN TIME, AS MYSELF AND THE OTHER PASSENGER WERE THRUST FORWARD (WITH SEATBELTS ON) DUE TO THE FORCE OF THE DECELERATION. IT WAS A TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE AND I HAD ABSOLUTELY NO CONTROL OF THE CAR AT THAT POINT. THIS WOULD BE HELPFUL FOR A SUDDEN STOPPAGE IN FRONT OF ME, BUT TERRIFYING WHEN UNPROMPTED. IT COULD HAVE RESULTED IN HARM TO MYSELF AND OTHERS AND DAMAGE TO MULTIPLE CARS. I AM TYPING THIS HERE SO THAT HOPEFULLY IT WILL BE REPORTED TO HONDA AND OTHERS'.
CANNOT BUCKLE DRIVER PASSENGER SEATBELT AND MIDDLE PASSENGER SEATBELT AT SAME TIME DUE TO PLACEMENT OF BUCKLES IN SEAT.
THE GEARSHIFT BUTTON BROKE AND FALLS OUT WHEN PUT IN GEAR
**'17 HONDA CR-V SHIFT LEVER BUTTON (SILVER) BROKE OFF DURING DRIVE!!** CR-V W/ AROUND 26K MILES HAD THE SILVER BUTTON FALL OUT WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET ON 7/13/2019. I WASN'T ACCELERATING OR DECELERATING AT THE TIME, IT JUST POPPED OUT. I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER AND STOP, BUT HAD A LOT OF TROUBLE GETTING IT SHIFTED FROM DRIVE TO PARK. I HAD TO PUSH THE LOOSE SPRING AND PLASTIC BUTTON BACK INTO THE SHIFT LEVER AND AFTER 6 TRIES, WAS ABLE TO PUT IT INTO PARK. ALSO, THE CAR WON'T TURN OFF AND WON'T LOCK BECAUSE THE COMPUTER DOESN'T RECOGNISE THAT IT IS PARKED. THE ENGINE START/STOP BUTTON KEEPS FLASHING RED.
WHILE DRIVING THE SHIFT LEVER PUSH KNOB BUTTON WHICH ALLOWS YOU TO SHIFT GEARS FELL OUT. UPON RESEARCHING THIS ISSUE ON LINE, APPARENTLY IT IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2017 AND 2018 HONDA CR-VS. THE PLASTIC BUTTON BREAKS INSIDE THE SHIFT LEVER WITH PART FALLING OUT AND THE OTHER PORTION REMAINING INSIDE THE SHIFT LEVER. WHEN I RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALER, THEY WERE WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. THIS ITEM SHOULD BE THE SUBJECT OF A MANDATORY RECALL AS IT POSES A HAZARD WHEN ONE CAN'T SHIFT THE CAR OUT OF DRIVE ETC. I WAS TOLD AT THE DEALER THAT IT IS ONLY REPLACED IF ALREADY BROKEN.
FUEL IS PENETRATING THE OIL IN THE ENGINE. STRONG GASOLINE SMELL IS PRESENT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AFTER DRIVING IT, REGARDLESS OF DISTANCE. GASOLINE SMELL FILLS CABIN WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE. PROBLEMS ARE OCCURRING REGARDLESS OF DISTANCE DRIVEN OR TERRAIN. FUEL IS DILUTING THE OIL IN THE VEHICLE IN SUCH LARGE AMOUNTS THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS BEYOND THE FULL LEVEL ON THE OIL DIP-STICK. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT IS A KNOW ISSUE, BUT THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX IT SINCE THERE IS NO RECALL ACTIVE.
I PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA BRAND NEW FROM MY LOCAL DEALER ON 9/28/2017 I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AS REQUIRED . A FEW MONTHS AGO I HAD A OIL CHANGE DONE AT THE DEALER AT THE SAME VISIT THEY DID A FUEL INJECTION SOFTWARE UPGRADE. SINCE THE UPGRADE MY ENGINE RUNS VERY ROUGH WHEN FIRST STARTED THIS NEVER HAPPENED BE FORE THE UPGRADE. THE REASON FOR THE UPGRADE WAS THAT THERE WAS GAS GETTING INTO THE OIL CAUSING THE OIL LEVEL TO RISE WHICH STATED IN THE OWNERS MANUAL CAN CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE. TODAY I LISTENED TO MY ENGINE AND THE TICKING NOISE IS GETTING MUCH LOADER THAN WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR .IAM VERY CONCERN THAT THERE IS ENGINE DAMAGE ITS SEEMS THAT HONDA IS IN NO HURRY AT ALL FIXING THE PROBLEM AND WHEN THEY DO ITS GOING TO BE TO LATE AND THE ENGINE WILL BE RUINED
GASOLINE SMELL INSIDE/ OUTSIDE CAR. HEATER IN WINTER NOT WORKED. CAR IN COVERED GARAGE WHEN GASOLINE SMELL OUTSIDE AND INSIDE. DID NOT HEAT UP AT BEGINNING OF WINTER. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS DUE TO SMELL; SAME WITH HEATER.
CAR WOULD NOT GO INTO "PARK" AFTER TRYING. THE GEAR SHIFT WOULD NOT GO PAST NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AND SITTING IN A PARKING SPOT. FORTUNATELY THE DEALER WAS CLOSE AFTER ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT NUMEROUS TIMES WAS ABLE TO MOVE. TOOK MY CR-V TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE SPRING AND THE KNOB YOU PRESS TO CHANGE GEARS. THEY SAID THIS WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY. THEY HAD THE KNOB AND SPRING READILY AVAILABLE WHICH TELLS ME THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE.
SHIFT KNOB BUTTON BROKE OFF WHILE PLACING THE CAR IN DRIVE FROM PARK - NOW I AM UNABLE TO SHIFT CAR TO PARK OR ANY OTHER GEAR. THIS CAR ONLY HAS 19K MILES ON IT AND A YEAR AND A 1/2 OLD. THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET AND ON YOUTUBE - I HAVE NEVER IN ALL OF MY YEARS DRIVING HAD A SIMILAR ISSUE WITH A SHIFT BUTTON.
IF I PARKED THIS CAR OVER TWO NIGHTS, ITS BATTERY WILL DIE AND NEED TO CALL AAA TO JUMP IT. IT OCCURS OVER FIVE TIMES IN ONLY TWO YEARS. THEN I CHANGED MY BATTERY, IT STILL HAPPENED AND I ALSO TURN OFF ALL LIGHT IN MY CARS.
THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB BROKE WILL I WAS PUTTING THE CAR IN PARK. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES IN CLOSE PROXIMITY, THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM APPLIED WITH FORCE AND ABRUPTLY STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE CREATED THE RISK OF A POTENTIAL CRASH. CONTINENTAL HONDA (5901 SOUTH LA GRANGE ROAD, COUNTRYSIDE, IL 60525, (708) 352-6000) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.
PUSH BUTTON ON TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER BROKE AND FELL COMPLETELY OUT. TRANSMISSION LEVER COULD NOT BE MOVED. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, RUNNING AND COULD NOT BE TURNED OFF.
VEHICLE IN MOTION. SHIFTER BUTTON FAILURE. CANNOT SHIFT. STRANDED VEHICLE
GEAR SHIFT LOCK RELEASE BUTTON BROKE WHICH PREVENTS THE TRANSMISSION FROM BEING RETURNED TO PARK.
THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT SPRUNG OUT OF THE "T" GEAR SHIFT HANDLE AFTER I PLACED THE CAR IN REVERSE. I WAS HAD NOT LEFT MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I DISCOVERED THE UNUSUAL OBJECT IN THE TRAY BETWEEN THE SEATS AND QUICKLY REALIZED WHAT IT WAS. THE BROKEN PLASTIC RETAINING CLIP AND A SPRING WERE ALSO LAYING ON A RECEIPT IN THE TRAY.I WAS ABLE TO PLACE THE BUTTON BACK INTO THE SHIFTER AND GO TO WORK. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT OTHER 2017 CR VS HAVE THIS ISSUE AND ONE OF THE HONDA BLOGS SAID THIS MIGHT BECOME A RECALL. I HOPE SO, AS MY 25 MONTH OUT CAR HAS 36,000 + MILES AND IS OUT OF WARRANTY.
WHILE TRYING TO PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK, THE SILVER BUTTON ON THE LEFT SIDE OF THE GEAR SHIFTER FLEW OFF. THE PIECE APPEARS TO BE BROKEN OFF IN THE INSIDE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. THE SERVICE REP WAS NOT SURPRISED. SAYS HE HAS HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING IN OTHER CR-V'S. HE TRIED TO TELL ME IT JUST POPPED OUT, BUT THIS THING BROKE OFF IN THE INSIDE. HE SAID HE SAID HE WAS SURPRISED THERE IS NO RECALL. THEY FIXED IT. NO CHARGE. QUITE A FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE WHEN IT HAPPENED
FRONT WIPER BLADES DON'T HAVE FULL RANGE OF MOTION. I NOTICED THIS AT ABOUT 35,000 MILES. I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER AT 40,000 MILES TO HAVE IT CHECKED. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED WORN GEAR TEEETH ON FRONT WIPER MOTOR, AND THAT IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. HONDA WILL ONLY PAY 50% OF THE REPAIR COST. WIPER MOTORS SHOULD NOT FAIL SO QUICKLY.
THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR EMITS SQUEAKING NOISE WHEN PULLING ON THE DOOR PULL TO OPEN THE DOOR. UPON CLOSER EXAMINATION, I SAW THAT THE POST FROM THE DOOR PULL HANDLE RUBS AGAINST THE CUTOUT HOLE IN THE DOOR PANEL. THIS MEANS THE ASSEMBLY OF THE DOOR HANDLE WAS OFF, OR THE CUTOUT WAS LOCATED WRONG. THE DEALER LOOSENED THE DOOR HANDLE TO READJUST ITS POSITION, BUT IT STILL SQUEAKS SOMETIMES. I CAN SEE THAT THE POST IS SLIGHTLY ADJUSTED AWAY FROM THE CUTOUT, BUT IT NOT AS FAR AWAY AS ON THE OTHER DOOR HANDLES. I SUSPECT THAT THE CUTOUT WAS LOCATED WRONG, WHEN THE HOLE WAS CUT IN MANUFACTURING.
AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM HAS ACTIVATED TWO TIMES SINCE I HAD THE CAR. FIRST TIME WHEN THERE WAS A METAL PLATE IN THE STREET ABOUT A YEAR AGO. ON JUNE 22 IN BROOKLYN IT WENT OFF AGAIN FOR NO REASON STOPPING THE CAR ABRUPTLY. FORTUNATELY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME. THIS IS VERY DISTURBING AND DANGEROUS
IN SLOW MOVING TRAFFIC IN FRONT OF THE LOCAL MALL, MY SUNROOF EXPLODED THERE WAS NO COLLISION, NO OBJECT THROWN OR DROPPED INTO THE WINDOW. HONDA REFUSED TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR WHAT I LEARNED FROM RESEARCH ON LINE, WHICH IS THAT THIS IS AN EPIDEMIC INVOLVING SHATTERED SUN ROOFS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL BEEPING NOISE EMERGING FROM THE VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, THE BRIGHTNESS CONTROL ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WAS BLINKING, BUT THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED HONDA OF THE AVENUES (11333 PHILIPS HWY, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32256, 904-370-1300) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRIGHTNESS CONTROL UNIT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09626590. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.
THE BUTTON ON THE SHIFT KNOB FELL OUT. IT APPEARS TO HAVE CRACKED, AND NOW THE BUTTON FALLS OUT OF THE SHIFTING HANDLE.
I HAD PARKED MY CAR FOR 4 DAYS WHILE AWAY ON A BUSINESS TRIP. I CAME BACK AND THE CAR WAS TOTALLY DEAD. IT WOULDN'T START, I COULD NOT EVEN OPEN THE DOORS WITHOUT THE EMERGENCY KEY. I PURCHASED A CHARGER AND I SPENT SEVERAL HOURS CHARGING IT BACK UP BEFORE I COULD DRIVE AGAIN. I HAD THE PARKING BRAKE ON DUE TO THE FACT I HAD PARKED IN MY DRIVEWAY WHICH HAD A MILD SLOPE TO IT. ONLINE RESEARCH INDICATED THIS WAS A RECURRING PROBLEM IN 2017S WHEN YOU APPLY PARKING BREAK. HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 17-032. BUT NO RECALL AND I UNDERSTAND THAT DOESN'T ALWAYS FIX THE ELECTRICAL DRAIN ON THE SYSTEM. I ALREADY PURCHASED A BATTERY ONCE WHEN IT HAPPENED BEFORE AND I IGNORANTLY DIDN'T LOOK UP THE PROBLEM.
SHIFT KNOB BOTTON IS BROKEN. ONE PIECE FALLS OUT OF THE HOLE AND ANOTHER IS STUCKED INSIDE THE KNOB.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONED AND THE VEHICLE SPONTANEOUSLY STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD FOR A FEW SECONDS. AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE CONTINUED DRIVING NORMALLY. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWO OTHER TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ADVANTAGE HONDA (1260 NORTHERN BLVD, MANHASSET, NY 11030), BUT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 095901. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED AND WAS TRADED IN FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 39,000.
WHEN COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STOPPED. THE SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK, CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LURCH FORWARD AND RESULTED IN THE DRIVER HITTING THEIR HEAD ON THE STEERING WHEEL.
WITH NO CARS AROUND ME AND NO OBSTRUCTIONS WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH ON THE FREEWAY BRAKES SLAMMED ON FOR NO REASON. I THEN TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID NOTHINGS WRONG. I HAVE NOW TAKEN IT TO CERITTOS HONDA NUMEROUS TIMES BUT THEY SAY NOTHINGS WRONG BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY.
CENTRAL DISPLAY FLICKERS BRIGHT TO DIM AND FREEZES. DISPLAY IS NOW STUCK ON HI BRIGHTNESS. BRIGHTNESS CAUSES SAFETY ISSUE WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT. HONDA OF AMERICA SAYS IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX. HAS BEEN 4 MONTHS AND NO RESOLUTION AS OF YET.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE OUT OF PARK, THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFTER POPPED OUT. THE CONTACT HAD TO USE A HOUSE KEY TO REACH INSIDE THE KNOB AND MOVE THE GEAR INTO NEUTRAL. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO RICHARDS HONDA (13413 MILLERSVILLE GREEN BLVD, BATON ROUGE, LA 70816) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SHIFTER KNOB NEEDED REPLACEMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.
SRS LIGHT HAS COME ON AND DOESN'T TURN OFF - AT DEALERSHIP NOW TO GET FIXED
DRIVER SEATBELT LOCKED IN RETRACTED POSITION. HAD TO BE REPLACED BY DEALER. (OCCURRED WHILE STOPPED AND PARKED (OF COURSE)).
BACK UP CAMERA AND NAVIGATION SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING WHILE ON TRIP TO COLORADO. CAR WAS OUTSIDE AT SUBFREEZING TEMPS AND AT HIGH ALTITUDE (10,000 FEET). DEALER HAD TO RESET WHEN RETURNED TO ARIZONA. (OCCURRED WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT).
TWICE NOW THE CAR WHEN IN LANE DEPARTURE HAS SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS. YESTERDAY THERE WAS A CAR BEHIND ME WHO HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID REAR ENDING ME. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO HONDA AND THEY BASICALLY WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE ME. ELECTRONICALY THERE ARE OTHER ISSUES THE SCREEN GOES BLACK AND FLASHES CONSISTENTLY AND ONLY WILL RESOLVE WHEN I TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE SO I AM NOW WITHOUT A CAR.
TOOK CRV INTO DEALER DUE TO ENGINE OIL SMELLING STRONG OF GASOLINE. WAS TOLD THEY LOOKED OVER THE CAR AND COULD NOT DETERMINED WHY AND THAT THE ODOR WAS NORMAL. WAS ALSO TOLD THIS IS NORMAL DUE TO HAVING A TURBO ENGINE YET TOLD MY VIN # FALLS INTO THE EFFECTED "OIL OVER FULL' ISSUE AND I HAVE AN EXTRA YEAR OF POWER TERRAIN WARRANTY. TO MY KNOWLEDGE, OIL LEVEL WAS ONLY SLIGHTLY ELEVATED. NOTHING WAS DONE TO REMEDY THE ISSUE, NO SERVICE BULLETIN OR OIL CHANGE. CRV ONLY HAS 19500 MILES. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR RUNNING ISSUES. ENGINE OIL APPEARS DIRTY YET ONBOARD SYSTEM STATES THAT OIL LIFE IS AT 50%.
WHILE DIVING RANDOMLY AT HIGH SPEEDS (60+ MPH) AND WHILE TURNING IN VERY GOOD WEATHER ALL WARNING LIGHTS LIGHT UP (I HAVE A VIDEO) AND THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES ON THE HIGHWAYS AND A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. I HAD TO PULL OUT OF THE HIGHWAY STOP AND RESTART FOR THE VEHICLE TO REGAIN POWER BUT THE WARNING LIGHTS CONTINUE TO BE LIT. AFTER A COUPLE OF START AND STOP IT DISAPPEARS. IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AND I HAVE BEEN LUCKY SO FAR. I HAVE APPROACHED THE DEALERSHIP THRICE ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THEY HAVE REPLACED 2 SENSORS AND UPDATED THE SOFTWARE BUT THE ISSUE PERSISTS.
THE SYSTEM PRODUCES FALSE POSITIVES AND TRIGGERS WARNINGS WHEN NO OBSTRUCTIONS ARE PRESENT, WHEN CRUISE CONTROL IS ON HIGHWAY SPEED FLUCTUATES WITHOUT ANY VEHICLES NEAR BY. THE SYSTEM CAUSES NUMEROUS WARNING MESSAGES RANDOMLY. THE SCREEN GOES BLACK AND I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN ON TO FIX THE PROBLEMS. CAR BRAKES WITHOUT PEOPLE ASSISTANCE. ALL THIS PROBLEMS HAPPEN A RANDOM TIMES AND WHILE DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 40-45 MPH UP A SMALL HILL, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND FAILED TO MOVE. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE RODE ROUGHLY AND SOUNDED AS IF IT HAD A DIESEL ENGINE. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE HOME. WHEN THE OIL WAS CHECKED WITH THE DIPSTICK, IT WAS OVER THE ORANGE INDICATOR LINE ONTO THE METAL AND THERE WAS AN ODOR OF FUEL. THE CONTACT CALLED DCH HONDA OF TEMECULA (LOCATED AT 26755 YNEZ RD, TEMECULA, CA 92591, (951) 268-9197) AND WAS ADVISED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THEIR FACILITY. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETECT THE PRESENCE OF FUEL IN THE OIL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN SHE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE A FEW WEEKS AGO, THE DEALER CHANGED THE OIL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN AT THE DEALER ALMOST TWO WEEKS AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD SPEAK WITH THE DEALER. IF THE FAILURE RECURRED, THE CONTACT WAS INSTRUCTED TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.
I JUST PULLED INTO MY GARAGE AND COULD NOT MOVE THE SHIFTER. THE BUTTON ON THE SIDE OF THE SHIFTER WOULDN'T GO IN AT ALL. KEPT TRYING AND THE BLACK PIECE TO PUSH IN JUST CAME OUT IN MY HAND. IT LOOKED LIKE IT HAD BROKEN OFF DOWN INSIDE THE SHIFTER. I PUSHED IT BACK IN AND PUT IN PARK. TAKING IN THE MORNING TO HONDA DEALER
THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT HAS BROKEN OFF. THE CAR CANNOT BE PUT INTO GEAR OR GEARS CHANGED WITHOUT A TOOL INSERTED TO PUSH INTERNAL BUTTON. IT WAS STATIONARY WHEN IT FELL OFF, BUT I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET THE CAR INTO GEAR.
NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE INFOTAINMENT DISPLAY RANDOMLY CHANGES BRIGHTNESS AND BEGINS FLICKERING AND CYCLING THROUGH SCREENS WHILE BEEPING. THIS OCCURS DURING BOTH DAY AND NIGHTTIME DRIVING, AND ON BOTH SHORT AND LONG TRIPS. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE OR DO A "HARD RESET" WITH THE BATTERY. THIS IS VERY DISTRACTING TO THE DRIVER. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS SIGNIFICANT DEFECT AND HAS NO FIX FOR IT. IN ADDITION, WHILE DRIVING DURING SNOW/RAIN, THE VEHICLE RADAR SYSTEMS STOP FUNCTIONING AND A MESSAGE APPEARS THAT THEY ARE "OBSTRUCTED", WHICH IS EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE OF THE INTENT OF THIS SAFETY FEATURE. GIVEN THAT THE INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM CONTROLS A LOT OF THE SAFETY FEATURES, HONDA NEEDS TO COME UP WITH A SOLUTION OR THE VEHICLES SHOULD BE RECALLED.
CR-V ROLLED BACKWARDS TWICE, ONCE WHEN THE ENGINE WAS OFF (OCT. 2018) AND ONCE WHEN IT WAS RUNNING (MAY 2019). BOTH TIMES THE GEAR SHIFT WAS IN NEUTRAL. I BELIEVE THE GEAR SHIFT SLIPPED INTO NEUTRAL, PERHAPS BY MY BANGING INTO IT. I HAVE DRIVEN FOR 27 YEARS AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. I MOST RECENTLY DROVE A TOYOTA RAV4 WITH A SIMILAR LAYOUT IN TERMS OF LOCATION OF THE GEAR SHIFT. DROVE IT FOR 9 YEARS WITHOUT A PROBLEM.
2017 HONDA CRV- EX / STALLING ON FREEWAY VEHICLE IDENTIFICATION NUMBER ' [XXX] ON MAY 29, 2018, MY CAR WHICH HAS 16,0000 MILES ON IT, STARTED MAKING A HORRIBLE ENGINE NOISE, CYLINDERS MISFIRING, LOSS OF POWER AND STALLED WHILE ON THE 405 FREEWAY, I BEGAN TO PANIC DUE TO FACT I WAS IN THE FAST LANE. I STARTED TO SMELL GAS IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WHILE CARS ARE STREAMING TO HALT TO AVOID A MULTI CAR PILEUP. I DIDN'T KNOW WHETHER TO GET OUT OF THE CAR OR STAY IN, THAT'S WHEN I SAW AN 18 WHEELER BARRELING TOWARDS ME TRYING TO STOP. THIS TRUCK CAME 2 FEET FROM REAR ENDING ME. I WAS TO SHAKEN TO SPEAK FOR 5 MINUTES BECAUSE MY LIFE FLASHES IN FRONT OF ME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND HONDA SHOULD CONDUCT AN OFFICIAL RECALL. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE A RECALL TAKE PLACE? HONDA'S MANAGER OF RECALLS, BRAD ORTLOFF, SAID OIL IN THESE ENGINES COULD BE DILUTED BECAUSE OF SOFTWARE SETTINGS OR POTENTIAL HARDWARE FAILURES. SOME VEHICLES COULD EXPERIENCE A LOSS OF POWER, LEADING TO CYLINDER MISFIRES OR ENGINE NOISE. IN ADDITION TO THOSE SYMPTOMS, CONSUMERS HAVE REPORTED THAT THEIR ENGINES STALLED OR THAT THE VEHICLES EXPERIENCED A SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER, RAISING SAFETY CONCERNS. DURING THE PAST 6 MONTHS I'VE BEEN HAVING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE ' OIL DILUTION, RISING OIL LEVELS, STALLING AND LOSS OF POWER AND STALLING. I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA MOTOR COMPANY, LTD HAS RECALLED 350,000 HONDA CRV'S IN CHINA & CANADA BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO BUY BACK MY VEHICLE DUE TO RISING SAFETY ISSUES. GIVEN THAT THE PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED, HONDA HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO ADDRESS THESE ISSUES IN AN OPEN AND TRANSPARENT MANNER. [XXX] CC: NHTSA CC: U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL CC: DEPT.

COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM. SEVERAL TIMES THE CAR HAS HIT THE BRAKES WITH ABSOLUTELY NO OBSTACLE IN FRONT OF THE CAR. I DID CALL HONDA AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER TO ADJUST. THE REP I SPOKE TO GAVE ME A LECTURE ABOUT IT BEING A SAFETY FEATURE THAT WE HAVE TO GET USED TO!!! HE ALSO SUGGESTED THAT I MAY HAVE THE SETTING SET TO "SHORT." I DID CHECK IT WAS SET TO "NORMAL" I CHANGED IT TO "LONG.". IT HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES SINCE THEN. ONCE JUST THE AUDIBLE WARNING AND TWICE IT LITERALLY SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND STOPPED THE CAR - EVERYTHING THAT WAS LOOSE WAS FLYING AROUND. I HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY FORTUNATE THAT EVERYTIME (5 INSTANCES SINCE I GOT THE CAR IN DEC 2017 - 4 TIMES ON CITY STREETS AND ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY) IT HAS SLAMMED THE BRAKES FOR NO REASON, THERE WAS NONE BEHIND ME. IF THERE WAS SOMEONE BEHIND ME, THEY WOULD HAVE HIT ME. I KNOW THAT IF I WAS DRIVING BEHIND SOMEONE WHO LITERALLY BROUGHT THE CAR TO AM IMMEDIATE STOP, I WOULD HAVE HIT THEM. ONE OF THESE DAYS I AM GOING TO GET HIT.
I WAS DRIVING MY HONDA CR-V ON A HIGHWAY USING THE HOV LANE. AT SOME POINT WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEEMED TO HAVE COLLAPSE AND THE CAR STARTED PULLING STRONG IN ONE DIRECTION TOWARDS THE CENTER DIVIDER LINE. WITH TWO HANDS ON THE WHEEL THE PULL WAS SO STRONG THAT I WOULD BARELY CONTROL THE CAR AND KEEP IT FROM CRASHING INTO THE DIVIDER. BARELY MISSING THE DIVIDER I MANAGED TO STOP THE CAR ON THE SHOULDER LUCKILY WITHOUT ANYONE COLLIDING INTO ME. IF I WAS DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE LANE THIS COULD HAVE PROMPTED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. I DIDN'T GO OVER ANY POTHOLE OR OBSTRUCTION ON THE ROAD. NO ONE HIT ME NOR DID I HIT ANYONE. NO AIRBAGS INFLATED NOR WARNING INDICATORS APPEAR ON THE CONSOLE. I CALLED THE POLICE AND ONCE ON THE SCENE THE POLICE SWEPT THE HIGHWAY TO DETERMINE IF THERE WERE ANY POTHOLES OR OBSTACLES THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE INCIDENT. THEY CONFIRMED THAT NON EXISTED AND THAT THE ROAD WAS DEEMED SAFE. THERE WAS NO POLICE REPORT PRODUCED AS THE POLICE DEEMED THE INCIDENT TO BE A NON ACCIDENT AND INSTEAD A BREAKDOWN SINCE THERE WAS NO COLLISION OR ALTERCATION. WHEN LOOKING AT THE CAR DAMAGE THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE TO THE WHEEL, WHEEL WELL, RIM WHICH SPLIT UP VERTICALLY, ROTAR, SUSPENSION, WHEEL CALIPER, BRAKES (WHICH FELL OFF IN PIECES) AND BASICALLY EVERYTHING ATTACHED TO THE DRIVER SIDE WHEEL. THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE TOWED AS IT WAS NOT OPERATIONAL AT THAT POINT. WHEN BROUGHT BACK TO THE HONDA DEALER THE DEALER COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING REPORTED ON THE COMPUTER. THERE ONLY EXPLANATION WAS THAT THE CAR WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. THE DEALER DID NOT WANT TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE OR FIND FAULT EVEN THOUGH THE VEHICLE WAS STILL COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. THIS INCIDENT SEEMED TO BE A MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION THAT OCCURRED THAT ALMOST TOOK MY LIFE AND COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFELY CONCERN FOR OTHER HONDA CR-V DRIVERS IF NOT PROPERLY INVESTIGATED.
WHILE PLACING CAR INTO PARK SHIFTER BUTTON BROKE OUT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL INSIDE THE VEHICLE THREE TIMES AND A KNOCKING NOISE WAS HEARD COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE ENGINE OIL WAS CHECKED AND THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF FUEL ON THE ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA WORLD (LOCATED AT 1 AUTOCENTER DR, LOUISVILLE, KY 40299, (502) 398-6398) AND THE ENGINE OIL WAS REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS AWARE OF THE ENGINE OIL AND FUEL DILUTION IN SIMILAR VEHICLES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,452. *BF *JB
THE OIL IN MY ENGINE IS BEING DILUTED WITH GASOLINE. THE DIPSTICK NEVER GOES BELOW FULL AND THE OIL IS THIN AND DIRTY. THIS IS JUST 1 MONTH AFTER AN OIL CHANGE. OCCASIONALLY THE GAS FUMES ENTER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT AND MAKE DRIVING THE CAR UNPLEASANT. HONDA DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. DATE BELOW IS THE LAST TIME GAS FUMES WERE INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT.
SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR TWO YEARS AGO, THE OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED AND SMELLS OF GASOLINE, AND THE CABIN HAS ALSO ON OCCASION SMELLED OF GASOLINE. I COMPLAINED TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHIN THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNING THE CAR, TO NO AVAIL. I HAVE COMPLAINED EACH TIME I'VE BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICING, TO NO AVAIL. I COMPLAINED TO THE GENERAL MANAGER OF THE DEALERSHIP, WHO SAID HE'D NEVER HEARD OF SUCH A PROBLEM, WHEN I HAD THE CAR SERVICED ON 5/14/19 (WHICH INCLUDED AN OIL CHANGE). A WEEK LATER I CHECKED THE OIL 'SURE ENOUGH, THE LEVEL HAS RISEN AND IT SMELLS OF GASOLINE. I HAVE GRAVE CONCERNS: FOR MY HEALTH AND SAFETY DUE TO THE OIL DILUTION PROBLEM. I PRIMARILY DRIVE SHORT DISTANCES, WHICH I UNDERSTAND INCREASES THE LIKELIHOOD OF OIL DILUTION IN THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE.
VIDEO OR NAVIGATION SCREEN WILL NOT DIM AND BLINDS DRIVER WHEN DRIVING AFTER DARK
AS I WAS PARKED AND PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB BROKE OFF AND I HAVING A DIFFICULT TIME SHIFTING INTO GEAR BECAUSE SHIFT KNOB IS NO LONGER ATTACHED.
I'VE BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES NOW FOR THE SAME ISSUES: ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM FAILURE, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO BEEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND WITH NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME, THE CAR WILL BEEP, FLASH BRAKE, AND THEN THE BRAKE SYSTEM WILL ACTIVATE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE SEAT BELTS LOCK UP FROM THE SUDDEN BRAKING. I WAS TOLD THERE IS AN UPDATE, AND THEY INSTALLED IT, SUPPOSEDLY, AND THE PROBLEM SHOULD BE FIXED. I AM STILL HAVING ALL THESE PROBLEMS, AND I AM NOW BEING TOLD THERE IS A SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT IS COMING OUT NEXT MONTH. LET ME REITERATE THAT WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY BRAKE WITH NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME. I ALSO HAD MY GEAR SHIFTER BUTTON POP OUT AND BRAKE WHILE SHIFTING TO DRIVE THE OTHER DAY. I HAD TO DRIVE TO HONDA, AND GET THAT REPLACED, AND WAS TOLD THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM.
USING THE ELECTRONIC EMERGENCY BRAKE DRAINS THE BATTERY TO DEAD. THIS HAPPENED WITHIN TWO MONTHS OF NEW AND I HAVE STOPPED USING IT. NOW THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY FOR THE RADIO. PARTIAL DISPLAY WITH SOUND AND WITHOUT SOUND AFTER NUMEROUS REBOOTS.
WHEN TURNING SHARP THE REAR END MAKES A GRINDING SOUND AND WILL JERK. I BELIEVE THIS IS THE DIFFERENTIAL GRINDING. WAS TOLD IT JUST NEEDED SERVICED AT 17,000. I DID THIS AND PROBLEM WAS NOT FIXED.
VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF AT A TIRE SHOP TO GET NEW TIRES PUT ON. UPON ATTEMPTING TO START THE CAR AGAIN, A WARNING SHOWED UP ON THE SCREEN SAYING "ELECTRONIC BRAKE FAILURE". THE CAR IS EQUIPPED WITH ELECTRONIC BRAKES THAT AUTOMATICALLY TURN ON WHEN THE CAR IS PUT INTO PARK AND TURNED OFF. THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO TURN BACK OFF WHEN THE CAR IS STARTED, BUT ON THIS OCCASION THEY WERE UNABLE TO TURN BACK OFF. THIS STOPPED THE CAR FROM BEING ABLE TO START AT ALL, MULTIPLE INDICATORS ON THE DASH WERE THROWING ERRORS, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON, THE BRAKE LIGHT WAS FLASHING, AND IT CONTINUED TO SHOW "ELECTRONIC BRAKE FAILURE". WHEN THE DEALERSHIP WAS CONTACTED THEY SAID THERE WASN'T ANYTHING THEY COULD DO BUT TO TOW IT 2 HOURS AWAY TO LOOK AT IT, THEN THEY SUGGESTED DISCONNECTING THE BATTERY FOR 10 MINUTES TO GET THE BRAKES TO RELEASE, WHICH WAS DONE AND DID RELEASE THE BRAKES AND CLEAR THE ERROR. BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS REMOVED, ANY CODES STORED WERE CLEARED SO WHEN IT WAS BROUGHT IN THE CAR SHOWED THAT EVERYTHING WAS FINE AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ENOUGH ISSUE NOW ON ALL NEW HONDAS WITH THE ELECTRONIC BRAKE FEATURE TO THE POINT THAT GOOGLING IT WILL COME UP WITH MULTIPLE FORUMS TALKING ABOUT IT.
DISPLAY CONSOLE BECOMES ERRATIC SHOWING DIFFERENT SCREENS, USUALLY STARTING FIRST WITH BRIGHTNESS LEVEL INDICATOR, AND THEN MOVING INTO DIFFERENT SCREENS. THE RATE THE SCREEN CHANGES INCREASES WITH TIME. DEALER STATED PREVIOUSLY THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF ISSUE AND THAT IT NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE WHICH WAS IN BETA TESTING. THE INCIDENT RATE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN IS INCREASING. MY SECOND TRIP TO THE DEALERSHIP TODAY (I THINK A YEAR LATER) AND THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE A FIX. TO STOP THE CASCADE, YOU HAVE TO STOP THE CAR AND TURN IT OFF. IT IS A SIGNIFICANT DISTRACTION WHEN DRIVING AND IS UNPREDICTABLE. HAVE ALSO NOTED LANE DEPARTURE SYSTEM WILL ENGAGE AT ODD TIMES (NO ACTUAL LANE DEPARTURE OR IDENTIFIABLE ROAD ISSUES). THE MAIN DASH DISPLAY FAILED TO BOOT ON START UP RECENTLY. THE GEAR KNOB HAS HAD TO BE REPLACED WITHIN THE FIRST YEAR.
I WAS TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED AND STOPPED TO LET A VEHICLE PASS ON A NARROW SIDE STREET AND THEN PULLED OVER TO LET ANOTHER VEHICLE PASS. WHEN I PULLED OVER THE CAR ACCELERATED AND COULD NOT BE STOPPED WITH THE BRAKES. I WAS ABLE TO YANK THE CAR OUR OF GEAR LEAVING THE ENGINE RACING AND THEN JUST AS QUICKLY IT SLOWED TO AN IDLE.
-I NOTICED OIL/GAS LEAK ON THE ENGINE THAT SLOWLY DRIPS UNDER. THE ENGINE OIL SMELLS GAS, OIL LEVEL GOES UP. - LANE DEPARTARE GOES OFF WHEN CAR IS IDLE FOR MORE THAN 15MINS (RANDOMLY) - NAVIGATION/AUDIO ACTS UP -CHANGES SCREEN AND NONSTOP BEEPING. YOU NEED TO TURN THE ENGINE OFF TO STOP IT-RESET.
SHIFT HANDLE BUTTON BROKE AND FAIL OUT OF SHIFTER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THEIR DAUGHTER DROVE HOME, THE ENGINE SHUTTERED VIOLENTLY AND DECREASED IN SPEED LEADING TO THE VEHICLE STALLING. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN LATER STARTED AND THE LANE MEDIATION AND CRASH SENSOR WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RICK HENDRICK HONDA OF CHARLESTON (1539 SAVANNAH HWY, CHARLESTON, SC 29407 (843) 279-0447 WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO A SPARE TIRE THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE LATER REOCCURRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT LATER ALL THE TIRES WERE REPLACED DUE TO WEAR AND TEAR BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS INFORMED THAT THE SYSTEM WAS REBOOTED HOWEVER THE CONTACT CONFIRMED THAT THE SYSTEM REBOOT WAS NOT PERFORMED AS THE DEALER STATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,774.
WHEN BACKING THE HONDA CR-V IN REVERSE DOWN MY DRIVEWAY, I TOUCHED THE SHIFT GEAR AND PROCEEDED TO PLACE THE CR-V INTO DRIVE. THE HONDA CR-V WENT INTO THE D POSITION, AND I SAW A SMALL PIECE OF THE KNOB FALL OFF. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER AND TRIED THE PUT THE CR- V INTO PARK, HOWEVER I COULD NOT. I HAD TO PLACE THE EMERGENCY PARKING BREAK ON. THIS WAS A VERY SCARY EXPERIENCE!
FUEL IN OIL CAUSING HIGH OIL LEVEL AND LOWERING THE VISCOSITY OF THE OIL CAUSING PRE MATURE WEAR OF ENGINE COMPONENTS.
BROKEN SHIFT BUTTON: I WAS DRIVING THIS CAR AND THE SHIFT BUTTON POP OUT AND FELL UNDER THE DRIVER SEAT. IT CREATED AN UNSAFE CONDITION SINCE I COULD NOT PUT THE CAR TO PARK OR SHIFT ANY GEAR. MANY DRIVERS ALSO EXPERIENCE THE SAME THING. THE BUTTON IS CONNECTED TO THE SHIFT GEAR AND IT IS MADE FROM A CHEAP PIECE OF PLASTIC. IT COSTS $85 TO REPLACE AT THE DEALER. HONDA REFUSES TO REIMBURSE SINCE THE CAR HAS PAST ITS WARRANTY. THE CAR IS AT 50000 MILES. I HAD TO PICK IT UP UNDER THE SEAT AND USE A HAIR BAND TO KEEP IT IN PLACE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED AT THE DEALER.
SMELL OF GASOLINE INSIDE CABIN ALL WINTER. FILING THIS COMPLAINT REGARDING THE DESIGN FLAW THAT MIXES GASOLINE WITH OIL.
GAS GETTING INTO OIL MAKING OIL LEVEL HIGH AND EFFECTING LUBRICATION
THE AUTOMATIC BREAKING FUNCTION IS RANDOMLY APPLYING THE BRAKES, OR WARNING TO BRAKE, AT RANDOM TIMES WHEN THERE ARE NO OTHER VEHICLES OR PEOPLE AROUND THE CAR. THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM HAS APPLIED ITSELF 3 TIMES, WITH VERY HARD BRAKING TO THE POINT THAT THE SEATBELTS LOCKED UP, WHILE MERGING OR EXITING THE FREEWAY, GOING ANYWHERE FROM 25-45 MPH'ISH. ONE TIME I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED AND THE VEHICLE BEHIND HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID HITTING ME (BECAUSE THEY WERE ALSO TAILGATING), ANOTHER TIME WAS WHILE EXITING A BRIDGE, AND THE MOST RECENT WAS THIS MORNING WHILE MERGING ONTO THE FREEWAY IN FRONT OF A BIG RIG AND THE BRAKES RANDOMLY SLAMMED THEMSELVES ON FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON. WHILE DRIVING ON SURFACE STREETS IT HAS AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED THE BRAKES LIGHTLY AT LEAST TWICE, AND GIVEN COUNTLESS FALSE BRAKING WARNINGS WHEN DRIVING AROUND CITY STREETS. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD!
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEFECT WITH VARIOUS COMPUTER SYSTEMS. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE LOST ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, BLIND SPOT INFORMATION, AND INFORMATION ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BELOW THE MILES PER HOUR INDICATOR. THE VEHICLE'S SPEED REDUCED. *JS
RAN PREMIUM GAS ONLY AND CHANGED OIL TWICE AS OFTEN AS RECOMMENDED BUT RECENTLY (4/2019) CHECKED OIL AND IT READ WAY ABOVE FULL, LOOKED ALMOST CLEAR AFTER 1500 MILES, AND SMELLED STRONGLY OF GAS AGAIN. I NOTICED THE CAR WAS ACCELERATING SLOWER AND SLOWER THAN WHEN NEW. READ UP ON GAS IN OIL PROBLEMS WITH THIS CAR AND SAW THAT HONDA OFFERED NO FIX FOR CARS IN THE STATE WHERE I LIVE AND DEALERSHIPS APPARENTLY DENY THERE IS GAS IN THE OIL. I WAS CONCERNED AFTER READING ABOUT ENGINES STALLING, WHICH OF COURSE THEY WILL DO WITH GAS IN THE CRANKCASE, HONDA DID RECALL WORK ON THIS CAR THAT INVOLVED CHANGING THE OIL BUT NOT THE FILTER WHICH IS RIDICULOUS AND WHICH DOESN'T EVEN BEGIN TO ADDRESS THIS HUGE ENGINE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS IS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE RISK OF THE CAR POTENTIALLY LOSING POWER AND/OR STALLING IN FREEWAY TRAFFIC. HONDA HAS NOT ONLY NOT FIXED THIS PROBLEM, THEY CONTINUE TO SELL THESE CARS WITH ENGINE DEFECTS EVEN AFTER THEY HAVE KNOWN ABOUT IT SINCE 2017.
MY CAR WAS IN MOTION I WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN INTO THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR JUST STOPPED. I TURNED IT OFF, WHEN I TRIED TO TURN IT BACK ON, IT DIDN'T. I STARTED TO SMELL SOMETHING BURNING. SO I JUST LEFT IT ALONE. ONLY THE LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD AND THE RADIO TURNED ON, I WAS ABLE TO CONTROL THE WINDOWS. THE WARNING LIGHTS THAT CAME UP WERE THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING, CHARGING SYSTEM, AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS.
SHIFT KNOB BUTTON FELL OFF AS I WAS GOING TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. VERY SCARY MOMENT BECAUSE I DIDNT KNOW WHERE THAT LITTLE PIECE FELL. I PUT A HAIRBAND TO 'KEEP IT IN TACT' WHILE I HAD TO TAKE IT TO DEALER TO FIX WHICH WAS 5 DAYS LATER
THE MAIN DASH DISPLAY INTERMITTENTLY WILL NOT "BOOT UP" OR WILL STAY BLACK (BLANK) WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE. THE WINDSHIELD WIPER WILL INTERMITTENTLY TURN ON WHEN SET ON AUTOMATIC EVEN THOUGH THERE IS NO WATER PRESENT. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM (RDM) SYSTEM IS ACTIVE, IT TURNS OFF WHEN LEAST EXPECTED SOMETIMES CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO CROSS THE MIDDLE (LEFT) OR OUTSIDE (RIGHT) LANES WITHOUT WARNING EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE WELL DEFINED SOLID AND/OR DASHED ROAD LANE LINES. HONDA NORTH AMERICA IS AWARE OF THE MAIN DISPLAY ISSUE AND HAS ADVISED DEALERSHIPS NOT TO REPLACE THE DISPLAY SINCE IT WILL NOT FIX THE ISSUE. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WILL NOT ADDRESS THE RDM ISSUE SINCE THE MAIN DISPLAY IS THE CENTRAL PROCESSOR FOR ALL THE SYSTEMS IN THE VEHICLE CABIN INCLUDING THE ROAD MITIGATION DEPARTURE SYSTEM (RDM) AND THE LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM (LKAS) CAMERA. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAS INFORMED US THAT HONDA NORTH AMERICA IS "WORKING ON A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM BUT HAS NO FIX AT THIS TIME". MEAN WHILE, WE ARE MAKING PAYMENTS ON A VEHICLE THAT IS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE WHEN USING THE ALL THE "SAFETY" FEATURES INCLUDED IN THIS VEHICLE. OTHER ISSUES WITH THIS VEHICLE INCLUDE: ENGINE OIL DILUTION, A LOOSE STABILIZER SWAY BAR THAT HAD TO BE TIGHTENED, DRIVER SEAT THAT WILL NOT RETURN TO THE NUMBER ONE DRIVER POSITION INTERMITTINGLY, THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB BUTTON CAME OFF AND HAD TO BE REPLACED AND THE DISPLAY IN FRONT OF THE STEERING WHEEL INTERMITTINGLY DOES NOT WORK.
ELECTRIC CONSOLE WILL TURN ON AND OFF BY ITSELF, CHANGE BRIGHTNESS, AND KEEPS CHANGING SCREENS WHILE BEEPING. NO WAY TO STOP IT EXCEPT TO PULL OVER, TURN OFF VEHICLE AND RESTART. IT HAS DONE THIS 5 TIMES NOW IN 1 MONTH. VERY DISTRACTING AND DANGEROUS BESIDES ANNOYING. IT HAPPENS WHETHER YOU ARE DRIVING OR PARKED. LIGHTS ON OR OFF.
I HAD JUST COME OFF THE HIGHWAY EXIT ON TO THE CITY STREET. I WAS INCREASING MY SPEED AND MOVING OVER TO THE LEFT. JUST AS I GOT INTO THE LEFT LANE THE CR-V SUDDENLY STARTED TO FLASH BREAK ON THE DASH IN FRONT OF ME AND I COULD FEEL THE VEHICLE BREAK HARD ON IT'S OWN. I WAS LUCKY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME. THERE WAS NO PERSON/VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO BRAKE FOR. I TOOK THE VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY TO THE HONDA GARAGE AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING. THERE WAS NO FAULT CODE IN THE SYSTEM NOR COULD THE TECHNICIAN DUPLICATE THIS ISSUE. I WAS LUCKY THAT THIS HAPPEN AT NIGHT WITHOUT MUCH TRAFFIC IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPEN GOING TO WORK ON THE HIGHWAY SOMEONE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED. I HAVE SEEN OTHER CR-V OWNERS REPORT THE SAME THING HAPPEN ON FORUMS. I AM VERY WEARY NOW TO DRIVE TO WORK WITH THIS ISSUE. I USED TO LOVE MY CR-V NOW I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE IT BUT HAVE NO CHOOSE AS IT IS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION TO WORK.
WHILE DRIVING MY CAR SIMPLY SLAMS ON THE BRAKES OUT OF NO WHERE. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME. I WAS TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 45 MILES AN HOUR ON AN EXIT RAMP WHEN THE CAR BEEPED, FLASHED BRAKE, AND IT BRAKED EVEN THOUGHT MY FOOT WAS STILL ON THE GAS. THE SEAT BELT TIGHTENED UP AND THE CAR STOPPED. ONCE IT REALIZED THERE WAS NOTHING THERE, IT BEGAN TO ACCELERATE LIKE A ROCKET SHIP. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE ON SUNNY DAYS WHEN IT MUST HAVE MISREAD SHADOWS ON THE ROAD AS OBJECTS AND AGAIN, SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS. IF THERE HAD BEEN A CAR BEHIND ME THIS MORNING, I HAVE NO DOUBT I WOULD HAVE BEEN IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THIS? I HAD BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALER BEFORE AND I WAS INSULTED THAT THEY SAID MY CAR WAS DIRTY. I WOULD HAVE DIED! IF THEIR SENSORS CANNOT FUNCTION IN A MICHIGAN SPRING, THEY NEED TO DO SOMETHING!
I WAS DRIVING MY HONDA CR-V (2017 MODEL EX AWD) ON A HIGHWAY AT 40 TO 50 MPH SPEED. IT WAS RAINING AT THAT TIME. I EXPERIENCED BIG JERKS COUPLE OF TIMES AND LOST THE CONTROL ON THE VEHICLE. SAW ERROR MESSAGE ON THE DASH BOARD SAYING 'LOST TRACTION AND CANCELLING CRUISE CONTROL'. IT WAS HORRIFIC EXPERIENCE.
DURING OIL CHANGES, MORE OIL WAS COMING OUT THAN WAS BEING PUT IN. OIL CLEARLY SMELLS LIKE FUEL. WHEN I BROUGHT THIS TO HONDA'S ATTENTION IN EARLY APRIL, I WAS TOLD TO GO TO A CERTIFIED HONDA DEALERSHIP TO GET A DIAGNOSIS. DURING THE DIAGNOSIS DONE ON 4/17/2019, THEY PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AT 80% OIL LIFE WHICH INDICATED THAT OIL LEVELS WERE ELEVATED BY APPROXIMATELY 1/4TH OF A QUART. I CAN ONLY IMAGINE HOW DILUTED THE OIL WOULD BE AT 10 OR 15% OIL LIFE. ACCORDING TO MY CASE MANAGER AND AS STATED IN THIS PAPERWORK, THIS IS "NORMAL". PAPERWORK PROVIDED BELOW WITH PERSONAL INFORMATION REDACTED.
BATTERY FAILED TO START (AT ALL) ON 01/09/19, AND WAS DIFFICULT TO JUMP START. VEHICLE (AND THE OEM BATTERY) HAD 13,167 MILES AT TIME OF FAILURE, AND HAD BEEN IN SERVICE APPR.17 MONTHS. NO EVIDENCE OF ABUSE. HONDA REFUSED TO REIMBURSE FOR DIAGNOSIS & REPAIR AT INDEPENDENT SHOP.
RECEIVED 'IMPORTANT SAFETY RECALL' (NHTSA RECALL 17V-442) DATED 'JANUARY 2018' FROM HONDA AUTOMOBILE DIVISION (ATTACHED). RECALL RELATED TO VARIOUS DANGEROUS CONDITIONS WHICH COULD RESULT FROM MANUFACTURING OR DESIGN DEFECT(S) RELATING TO (GASOLINE) FUEL SYSTEM. ACCORDINGLY, VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA DEALER FOR REPAIR ON 01/24/18 PRIOR TO APPOINTMENT TIME OF 10:15 A.M. HONDA SERVICE CONSULTANT WAS ADVISED AT THE TIME THE APPOINTMENT WAS MADE THAT LESSEE OR HER REPRESENTATIVE WOULD NEED TO WAIT FOR THE REPAIR TO BE COMPLETED BECAUSE OF THE LONG COMMUTE INVOLVED. PER HONDA RECALL NOTICE, THE REPAIR WAS TO "... TAKE APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR 15 MINUTES." IN FACT, IT TOOK 3 HOURS 27 MINUTES. (SEE ATTACHED.) DURING THE COURSE OF THE REPAIR, THE SERVICE CONSULTANT ADVISED LESSEE'S REPRESENTATIVE THAT THE TECHNICIAN "HASN'T DONE ONE OF THESE BEFORE", AND THAT "I'VE GOT THE SHOP FOREMAN ON IT NOW." HAVING OBVIOUSLY INCOMPETENT PERSONNEL HANDLE SUCH A REPAIR IS PATENTLY IRRESPONSIBLE AND SUBJECTS CONSUMERS TO UNNECESSARY DANGERS, NOT TO MENTION WASTING CONSUMERS' TIME. HONDA OBVIOUSLY DOES NOT TAKE ITS RESPONSIBILITIES TO ITS CUSTOMERS SERIOUSLY.
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO GAS SMELL IN OIL. *LD THE CONSUMER REQUESTED THE SERVICE BULLETIN 18-114 BE PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE AT NO CHARGE. *JS
FUEL IS MAKING IT'S WAY INTO THE OIL SYSTEM. EVERYTIME I CHECK THE OIL I CAN CLEARLY SMELL GASOLINE ON THE DIPSTICK. I KNOW THAT HONDA HAS RECALLED 350,000 CRVS IN CHINA FOR THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE SAME 1.5 TURBO ENGINES HOWEVER, WHEN I TELL THE DEALERSHIP OR HONDA REPRESENTATIVES ABOUT IT THEY ACT AS IF IT IS AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THIS WILL EVENTUALLY CAUSE PREMATURE WEAR ON THE ENGINE AND POTENTIALLY BECOME A SAFETY CONCERN IF THE ENGINE WERE TO STALL AT HIGH SPEEDS.
OIL DILUTION PROBLEM. GAS GETTING INTO OIL. HONDA "FIX" DID NOT WORK; SAME ISSUE 300 MILES AFTER FIX APPLIED. ENGINE IDLING ROUGH (ESPECIALLY DURING FIRST START AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT), OIL LEVEL RISING IN CAR, WHEN YOU CHECK THE OIL IT SMELLS LIKE GAS, FUEL SMELL IN CABIN PERIODICALLY, ENGINE HESITATING/STALLING WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE. HAVE VISITED DEALERSHIP TWICE WITHIN 30 DAYS FOR THIS PROBLEM WITH NO RESOLUTION.
I OWN A 2017 HONDA CR-V 1.5 TURBO FWD AND MY VEHICLE IS SUFFERING FROM THE AFFECTS OF 'OIL DILUTION.' I REGULARLY HAVE MY OIL CHANGED BY HONDA, BUT I NOTICED, UPON RETURNING FROM A LONG TRIP IN NORTHERN INIDIANA OVER WINTER, A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE WHEN CHECKING MY OIL-DIPSTICK AND THE VOLUME WAS MUCH HIGHER THAN EXPECTED. WHEN I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO HONDA, I WAS ADVISED THAT HONDA WAS AWARE OF A PROBLEM FOR ALL 2017-2018 CR-V 1.5 TURBOS WITH RESIDUAL GAS DRIPPING INTO THE CYLINDERS AND EVENTUALLY THE OIL CRANK-CASE, CALLED 'OIL DILUTION'. I ASKED THE HONDA TECHNICIAN TO CHECK FOR GASOLINE IN MY OIL, BUT THEY SAID NO SUCH TEST WAS AVAILABLE. HE ADVISED ME THAT NO FIX CURRENTLY EXISTS, ASIDE FROM MORE FREQUENT OIL CHANGES. I THEN FOLLOWED UP WITH THE LEAD TECHNICIAN AT MY DEALER TO RESOLVE THE SAFETY CONCERN, BUT I WAS VERBALLY TOLD THAT HONDA DOES NOT INTEND TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE UNLESS LITIGATION IS MANDATED. I BELIEVE THIS PROBLEM POSSES A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN AS THESE VEHICLES AGE AND THE RISK OF ENGINE SEIZURE OR EXPLOSION INCREASE. HONDA NORTH AMERICA'S POSITION IS THAT SINCE THERE ARE SO FEW 2017 CR-VS WITH TURBO ON THE ROAD, THEY DO NOT SEE A REASON TO ACT. THERE IS A FUNDAMENTAL PROBLEM WITH THIS HONDA TURBO FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM, WHICH WAS FIXED FOR THE 2019 MODELS. A SOFTWARE PATCH IS BEING ISSUED BY HONDA CANADA, BUT THIS IS NOT OFFERED IN SOUTHERN STATES AND HONDA REFUSES TO COMMENT ON THE LONG TERM IMPACT AND DEGRADED PERFORMANCE. I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND FELLOW DRIVERS.
CAR STALLED. AND VENTS SMELL OF GASOLINE, GEAR SHIFT IS LOOSE. ALMOST GOT IN A CAR ACCIDENT WITH MY TODDLER AND HUSBAND IN CAR.
SMELL OF GAS IN THE GARAGE AFTER LEAVING WINDOWS DOWN. THEN LATER NOTICED IT AGAIN IN THE CABIN 2-3 DIFFERENT TIMES WHICH MY SON WAS VISITING AT THE TIME AND SMELLED IT IN THE GARAGE AGAIN. HE CHECKED THE OIL AND WE COULD SMELL GAS, I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DEALERSHIP ON 1-8-19 WAS TOLD THERE WAS NO RECALL AND MECHANIC COULDN'T SMELL GAS ON DIP STICK WHICH I GOT THE MANAGER INVOLVED AND HE TOLD ME THE PROBLEM IS MORE SO IN THE NORTHERN STATES WERE IT'S COLD. HE TOO SAID HE COULDN'T SMELL GAS BUT CHANGED MY OIL ( WHICH HAD ALREADY BEEN CHANGED RECENTLY)..WAS TOLD NOTHING THEY COULD DO UNLESS OIL LIGHT CAME ON OR STARTED HAVING ENGINE PROBLEMS OR TILL A RECALL COMES HERE. I HAVEN'T NOTICED THE SMELL SINCE WARMER WEATHER HAS COME IN. LOVE THE CAR BUT SCARY WHEN IT COMES TO GAS AND THE ENGINE WHICH "AGAIN" WAS ASSURED WASN'T A DANGER TO ME. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
CAR HAS BEEN IN MOTION AND STATIONARY WHEN ALL DASH LIGHTS COME ON, NO SYSTEMS WORK ACCORDING TO THE DASHBOARD. WHEN DASH LIGHTS WITH EVERY SINGLE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING, ALL POWER AND ACCELERATION IS LOST. THIS HAPPENED TO ME IN AN INTERSECTION THE OTHER DAY AND LUCKILY THE CRV WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WHERE THE CRV WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AGAIN UNTIL I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS BLOGS WITH OTHERS HAVING THIS ISSUE. VTM-4 POPS UP ON THE RADIO SCREEN AS A PROBLEM. HONDA CLAIMS TO HAVE FIXED THIS ISSUE ON THE 2019 MODELS YET NO RECALL ON 2017 AND 2018 MODELS? THIS LOSS OF POWER AND CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE IS ESPECIALLY SCARY SINCE I HAVE 2 YOUNG KIDS THAT RIGHT WITH ME DAILY. CRUISE CONTROL WON'T WORK, REMOTE START HASN'T WORKED SINCE THIS ISSUE STARTED AROUND 60-70K MILES. HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS MAJOR PROBLEM!
EMISSIONS CHECK LIGHT APPEARS - CAR IS DRIVEN 25000 MILES
SHIFT KNOB ON STICK TO SET CAR TO PARK, DRIVE, OR REVERSE BROKE. IT DOES NOT STAY IN SLOT. THIS CAUSED AN ISSUE WHEN I TRIED TO PUT CAR INTO PARK AND REALIZED THE BUTTON POPPED OUT. CAR WAS STATIONARY AND I WAS ABLE TO PUT CAR IN NEUTRAL, FIND THE BUTTON AND PUSH IN, BUT STILL A DANGER.
I WENT FOR AN OIL CHANGE AND THE PLACE SAID THAT THE OIL SMELLED LIKE FUEL, WAS VERY THIN. IN CONSUMER REPORTS THERE WAS A BLURB ABOUT THE HONDA CR-VS WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE EXPERIENCING THE MIXING OF GAS IN THE OIL BUT MAINLY IN THE COLDER, NORTHERN STATES. SO, WHEN THE OIL CHANGE PEOPLE SAID THE OIL SMELLED LIKE GAS, I THEN DROVE TO A HONDA DEALER AND THEY CHECKED IT OUT, BUT SAID THEY DIDN'T SEE GAS IN THE OIL, BUT I JUST HAD THE OIL CHANGED SO OF COURSE THERE WASN'T SIGNS OF IT. SO, BEFORE MY NEXT OIL CHANGE I WILL TAKE IT TO HONDA SO THEY CAN SEE IT.
I WAS DRIVING MY CAR ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO ON THE WEEKEND WHEN THE CAR STOPPED SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING NORMALLY, THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THE BRAKES TO BE ACTIVATED. I WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT AT ABOUT 40 MPH , THERE WAS A WALL ON THE FAR LEFT SIDE OF THE ROAD( ABOUT 2 METER HEIGHT), ANYHOW, THE BRAKES SYSTEM SHOULD NOT BE ACTIVATED --SIMILARLY A YEAR AGO IN 208 I HAD THE SAME PROBLEM , BRAKES GOES OFF BY ITESLEF WITHOUT ANY NEED FOR IT...THIS IS DANGEROUS AS SOMEONE COULD HAVE HIT ME FROM THE BACK.
IF I STOP USING THE CR-V FOR TWO DAYS THE BATTERY GOES DEAD AND I HAVE TO RECHARGE IT. THE ORIGINAL BATTERY WAS REPLACED AFTER THE FIRST YEAR IN THE HONDA DEALER. IF I WANT TO USED THE OTHER CAR I NEED TO TURN ON THE CR-V EVERY DAY SO THE BATTERY DOES NOT LOOSE CHARGE.
SHIFTER CONTROL BUTTON POPPED OFF WHILE DRIVING CREATING A SIGNIFICANT HAZARD TO THE DRIVER AND OCCUPANTS AS REASSEMBLING THE CONTROLLER/ SHIFTER CAN BE DANGEROUS. HONDA USA ( CATHERINE) REPORTED THIS IS NOT A HONDA ISSUE. AND REFUSED TO PROVIDE TOWING.
SHIFT KNOB BROKEN, UNABLE TO SHIFT VEHICLE INTO PARK OR REVERSE. THE SHIFT KNOB HAS NOW BROKEN TWICE.
OVERFILLED OIL LEVELS AND A GAS SMELL
THE LEVEL OF THE FLUID ON THE OIL DIPSTICK WILL INCREASE AFTER AN OIL CHANGE. AND UPON REMOVING IT SMELLS OF GASOLINE. 2000 MILES AFTER AN OIL CHANGE THE LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK WILL READ 1/2' HIGHER THAN NORMAL. WHICH TELLS ME GAS IS SOMEHOW ENTERING THE CRANKCASE AND DILUTING THE OIL.
OUT OF WARRANTY BUT GEAR SHIFT BUTTON HAS BEEN "STICKING" FOR 1 MONTH AND THEN "BROKE OFF" TODAY. CAR ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT AND NOW CANNOT DRIVE IT DUE TO INABILITY TO SHIFT GEARS.
VERY STRONG CONTINUOUS SMELL OF GASOLINE INSIDE THE CAR COMING FROM THE FRONT ENGINE AREA OF THE CAR WHEN STARTING IT AND THE SMELL CIRCULATES IN THE CAR WHILE DRIVING IT. ALSO SMELL GAS FROM THE CAR FOR A LONG WHILE, AFTER PARKING IT IN MY ENCLOSED GARAGE. THIS IS A SERIOUS HEALTH, SAFETY AND EVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. THE SMELL MAKES ME NAUSEOUS. JUST BOUGHT THIS 2017 HONDA CRV THREE MONTHS AGO, TOOK THIS VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER, HE SAID THEHONDA FACTORY DOESN'T HAVE ANY FIXES FOR THIS ISSUE. UNTRUE PER DATA FOUND ONLINE WHICH STATES THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN TAKEN CARE OF PER A RECALL OF THESE VEHICLES IN CANADA AND FOR SOME STATES BUT NOT YET IN ALL USA STATES, INCLUDING MY STATE. I HOPE THIS VEHICLE IS RECALLED AND THE ISSUE FIXED VERY SOON FOR OUR HEALTH AND SAFETY.
ON EARLY OCT 2017, AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM APPLIED (SLAMMED) FOR NO APPARENT REASONS AT 45 MPH. NO CARS WERE IN FRONT AND LUCKILY NONE WAS BEHIND. HAPPENED ON MID DAY, CLEAR AND SUNNY DAY. THERE WERE SEVERAL OCCASIONS THAT BRAKE WARNING ACTIVATED WHILE NO PENDING TRAFFIC. WENT TO DEALER TO CHECKUP AND WAS TOLD "NEVER HEARD OF SUCH ISSUES WITH THIS BRAKE ISSUES". IT TOTALLY DID NOT MAKE SENSE THAT THE ADVISER RECOMMENDED TURNING OFF BRAKE SENSING FEATURE!? ON A SEPARATE ISSUE, FRONT ADAPTIVE SHUTTER MALFUNCTION WHILE WAS ON THE HIGHWAY CAUSING LOSS OF POWER. SYSTEM RESET ITSELF AFTER PULLING OFF THE ROAD SHUTOFF AND RESTART THE ENGINE. DEALER SAID THEY WERE NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THIS ISSUE AND FOUND NO FAULTY PROBLEMS.
MY VEHICLE'S WARNING LIGHTS ARE ON FOR ALL FEATURES, INCLUDING LANE ASSIST, STABILITY, COLLISION MITIGATION, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING AND MANY OTHERS. THESE FEATURES ARE CURRENTLY NOT WORKING. THE FIRST TIME THE ISSUE OCCURRED WAS IMMEDIATELY UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERS THREE TIMES. THE THIRD TIME, I WAS TOLD THERE WAS A PROBLEM WITH A FUEL VALVE -- PART OF A HONDA "CAMPAIGN," WHATEVER THAT MEANS -- AND THAT REPLACING/REPAIRING THE ISSUE COULD TAKE UP TO 60 DAYS. I WAS DISMISSED FROM THE DEALER AND TOLD THAT THE ISSUE WOULD NOT MAKE MY CAR STOP WORKING, AND THAT I WOULD BE CONTACTED WHEN A PART ARRIVED. MEANWHILE, MY CAR IS IDLING ROUGH AND I SMELL GAS UPON STARTING IT.
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON (YOU DEPRESS THIS TO SHIFT GEARS) POPPED OFF, NO WARNING, FOR NO REASON. I WAS SHIFTING INTO REVERSE, WHEN I RELEASED THE BUTTON, IT FLEW OFF. I HAD TO KEEP MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE TO FIND THE BUTTON AND STICK IT BACK IN. IT IS NOW LOOSE AND WILL NOT STAY ON/IN. THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS IF A CAR IS MOVING AND IT POPS OFF...
I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE IS PART OF THE HONDA 1.5L OIL-FUEL PROBLEM FIRST NOTICED BACK IN LATE 2017. I DID NOT THINK MUCH ABOUT IT UNTIL I TALKED WITH TWO OTHER CO-WORKERS WHO ALSO HAVE 2017 HONDA CR-VS. FIRST, MY ENGINE PERFORMANCE SLOWLY DROPS AFTER EACH OIL CHANGE, THEN PICKS BACK UP AGAIN ONCE I HAVE GOTTEN AN OIL CHANGE. SECOND, THIS WAS MY FIRST WINTER WITH MY CR-V AND I NOTICED THAT IT HAS A VERY HARD TIME ACCELERATING DURING THE WINTER MONTHS EVEN AFTER LETTING THE ENGINE WARM UP FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. LASTLY, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL SAYS THAT MY OIL LEVEL IS AT A CERTAIN %, FOR INSTANCE IT SAYS THAT I AM AT 20% RIGHT NOW, HOWEVER, WHEN I CHECK THE DIPSTICK, I SEE OIL WELL ABOVE THE "FULL" LINE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT I CAN DO TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM. I LIVE IN THE STATE OF VIRGINIA, AND NOTICED THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR VEHICLES IN MY STATE.
THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE DASH DISPLAY. THE DISPLAY, INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN I START IT, SEE IMAGE 1, DOES NOT SHOW THE DESCRIPTIVE INFORMATION IN THE MIDDLE OF THE DISPLAY. THE CAR STARTS, THE MESSAGES ABOUT BRAKE IS ON, AND MITIGIATION BEING ON, SHOW UP, AND THEN THE CENTER OF DISPLAY BLACKS OUT. SOMETIMES, IT STAYS ON, AND THEN WHEN I RELEASE THE BRAKE, IT DISAPPEARS. SEE IMAGE 2, THAT IS AFTER I RESTARTED IT AFTER IT HAD BEEN RUNNING FOR A WHILE I HAVE FURTHER TESTED THIS. IF I START THE CAR WITH THE BRAKE OFF, THEN THE DISPLAY SEEMS TO COME UP (I START CAR, WITH BRAKE ON, IN GARAGE, DISPLSY DOES NOT COME UP, I RELEASE BRAKE, THEN SHUT DOWN THE CAR. I THEN RESTART IT, BRAKE IS STILL OFF, AND THEN THE GAS MILLEAGE DISPLAY COMES ON, THEN NOTIFICATION ABOUT ROAD MITIGATION; THEN ROAD MITIGATION DISAPPEARS, AND THE MILEAGE AND FUEL DISPLAY REMAINS ON) MY CONCERN IS WHETHER THIS REFLECTS OTHER SMOLDERING COMPUTER ISSUES THAT COULD AFFECT THE SAFETY OF THE CAR. I HAVE REPORTED THIS TO HONDA IN LATE 2018, BUT ALL THEY SUGGESTED WAS TAKING THIS TO A REPAIR SHOP TO LET THEM LOOK AT IT. BUT I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS A MY CAR ISSUES, THIS IS A BROADER COMPUTER ISSUE. THEN, THEY ISSUED A SOFTWARE UPDATE TO ADDRESS THE GAS-IN-OIL ISSUE, AND THE DISPLAY ISSUE SEEMED TO DISAPPEAR FOR A WHILE, BUT NOW IT HAS RECURRED. THIS TIME IT SEEMED TO START AFTER I HAD CONNECTED A PHONE TO THE ANDROID SYSTEM THROUGH THE SMART CABLE, BUT AFTER DISCONNECTING THE PHONE, THE ISSUE PERSISTS. *DT*JB
OIL DILUTED WITH FUEL, OVER FULL. STRONG FUEL ODOR IN VEHICLE.
CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL IT WAS ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL. THE OIL INDICATOR SAYS WE HAVE 10% OIL LIFE. AND THE OIL SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. WENT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID IT'S NOT A PROBLEM. THEY GAVE US A SPEECH THAT IT'S NORMAL TO HAVE GAS THAT LEAKS TO THE OIL AND IT WILL EVAPORATE. OUR OTHER CARS DOESN'T. IT HASN'T AFFECTED THE CAR YET BUT JUST CONCERN THAT SOMETHING WILL HAPPEN WHILE I'M DRIVING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AUTOMATIC BRAKE SYSTEM INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, BUT THERE WERE NO VEHICLES AHEAD. THE FAILURE ONLY OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON BACK ROADS AND SIDE STREETS. IN ADDITION, THE AUTO SAFETY FEATURE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOCH HONDA (3927, 279 BOSTON PROVIDENCE HWY, NORWOOD, MA 02062, (877) 657-6352) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE UPDATE FAILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.
IT IS THE END OF MARCH 2019. THE OIL LEVEL IN THE 1.5T ENGINE KEEPS GOING UP. THE DIP STICK HAS STRONG GASOLINE ODOR. SERVICE BULLETIN 18-147 HAS BEEN APPLIED TO THE TO THE CAR IN EARLY JANUARY OF 2019 AND IS NOT HELPING WITH THE OIL DILUTION. WHY IS SERVICE BULLETIN 18-147 NOT CONSIDERED A RECALL SINCE IT IS MANDATORY FOR THOSE WHO RECEIVED THE NOTICE? WHY IS THE NHTSA NOT INVESTIGATING A VEHICLE THAT HAS 500-1000% MORE POSTED COMPLAINTS THAN THE AVERAGE VEHICLE OF THE SAME CLASS?
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65MPH THE SILVER BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT SPONTANEOUSLY BROKE OFF THE HANDLE USED TO SHIFT BETWEEN PARK, NEUTRAL AND DRIVE. NO ONE WAS TOUCHING THE SHIFTER AT THAT TIME. THIS WAS A VERY DISTRACTING EVENT -- I SUDDENLY SAW THE BROKEN BUTTON. TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS "GOING ON" DISTRACTED ME FROM LOOKING AT THE ROAD, WITH THE ASSOCIATED RISK OF LOOSING "SITUATIONAL AWARENESS". I WAS FORTUNATE IN THAT I RAPIDLY REFOCUSED ON THE ROAD AND NO ACCIDENT OCCURRED. THE PERSON IN THE FRONT-PASSENGER SEAT FIGURED OUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED. I TALKED TO 2 DEALERS AND THEY INDICATED THAT THEY HAVE SEEN THIS WITH SEVERAL OTHER CRVS. BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE AND THE DEALER FEEDBACK, THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THIS IS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT THAT IMPACTS MULTIPLE CARS; THE DISTRACTION CREATED WHEN IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY CAN RESULT IN SOMEONE GETTING INTO A POTENTIALLY FATAL ACCIDENT IF THIS DEFECT IS NOT PROACTIVELY ADDRESSED. I REPORTED IT TO HONDA AMERICA. THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL REPORT IT TO HONDA, BUT MADE NO COMMITMENT TO ADDRESSING IT OR GETTING BACK TO ME ON THEIR DECISION. A PROACTIVE RECALL AND REPAIR OF THE PROBLEM NEEDS TO HAPPEN BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB POPPED OUT OF THE SHIFTER WHILE I WAS IN REVERSE AND I COULDN'T TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK TO FIND IT OR I WOULD HAVE HIT SOMETHING. LUCKILY I FOUND IT AND SHOVED IT BACK IN TO BE ABLE TO GET INTO PARK BUT IT STILL REGULARLY POPS OUT LEAVING THE SHIFTER STUCK IN GEAR.
THE SHIFT GEAR/SHAFT BUTTON FELL APART/BROKE OFF ALL OF A SUDDEN, WHILE CAR WAS IN MOTION. THIS RENDERED THE VEHICLE INOPERABLE AS YOU CANNOT SHIFT GEARS. I WAS UNABLE TO FIGURE A SAFE SOLUTION WHILE DIVING. AFTER TALKING WITH OTHERS APPARENTLY THIS MANUFACTURER DEFECT IS HAPPENING TO CRV OWNERS. I CONTACTED HONDA AND THEIR REPLY WAS THAT IF IT IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY THEY ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR REPAIRS. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THIS OCCURS WHILE DRIVING IT CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND OR SERIOUS INJURIES.
RADIO TURNS ON AND OFF, RADIO STATIONS SWITCH AROUND, BRIGHTNESS GOES UP AND DOWN, PHONEBOOK GETS RUN THROUGH AND CALLS RANDOM PEOPLE, GOOGLE MAPS HISTORY STARTS BEING DISPLAYED AS IF SOMEONE IS LOOKING UP MY LOCATION, WINDSHIELD WIPERS GO ON AND OFF. RADIO VOLUME TURNS WAY UP. I UNPLUG MY PHONE AND SOMEONE WILL RECONNECT IT USING BLUETOOTH. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING 3 TIMES A WEEK OVER 6 MONTHS. DEALERSHIP HAS NO SECURITY UPDATES FOR ME
THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE GEAR SELECT LEVER FELL OFF AFTER SHIFTING TO DRIVE. THE I HAD TO SEARCH THE FLOOR WHERE THE BUTTON FELL AND PLACE IT BACK INTO THE SELECT LEVER IN ORDER TO SHIFT TO PARK. NOW THE BUTTON EASILY FALLS OFF. IT LOOKS LIKE THE PLASTIC INSIDE THE PUSH KNOB BROKE.
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, THE SYSTEM HAS MADE AN ALERT SOUND AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL HAS PROVIDED THE FOLLOWING NOTIFICATIONS: "BREAK SYSTEM" INDICATOR IS LIT; COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM; ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM; AND TODAY (3/28/2019) WHILE THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ENGAGED, IT ALSO DISPLAYED ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM. IT SHUTS DOWN THESE SYSTEMS AND THE CAR DRIVES WITH A SLIGHT "DRAG" TO ITS MOVEMENT. THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE IS TO PULL OVER, TURN THE CAR OFF, WAIT, AND THEN RESTART. THE SYSTEM CHECKS ITSELF AND RESETS. THIS IS UNPREDICTABLE, CANNOT BE SPECIFICALLY INITIATED, AND THEREFORE IS DIFFICULT TO TAKE FOR REPAIR WHEN THERE IS NO INDICATION AT THE TIME OF THE VEHICLE BEING IN NEED OF REPAIR. THERE IS CLEARLY SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SOFTWARE, THE COMPUTER, OR AN ELECTRICAL CONNECTION. I AM THE ORIGINAL OWNER, VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN OCTOBER 2017.
ENGINE WAS MAKING A FLUTTERY SOUND. NOTICED FUEL IN OIL, FOUND CAMS WERE BINDING AND TIMING CHAIN WAS STRETCHED AND LOOSE. THEY REPLACED CYLINDER HEAD AND TIMING CHAIN. LEARNED ONLINE THIS IS A KNOWN RESULT OF OIL DILUTED BY FUEL, AND THERE IS A FIX BUT ONLY FOR CARS REGISTERED IN CERTAIN STATES, NOT MY STATE. COMPLAINED TO AMERICAN HONDA, CASE #09409822. WAS TOLD OIL DILUTION IS NORMAL, CAR SHOULD NOT BE DRIVEN SHORT DISTANCES - CLAIMED THIS IS IN WARRANTY DOCUMENTS - AND THEY WILL DO NOTHING, AND ALSO CANNOT PROVIDE ME WITH ANYTHING IN WRITING. NO PRESALE MENTION OF "REQUIREMENT" TO NOT DRIVE UNDER SEVERAL MILES. WITH MY 1/2-MILE COMMUTE, WOULD NEVER HAVE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE. BASED ON THIS I AM TERRIFIED THAT SOME TIME WHILE DRIVING IN THE FUTURE THE TIMING CHAIN WILL FAIL WHILE I AM DRIVING, THE ENGINE WILL STOP, AND THIS COULD LEAD TO SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH -- EITHER MINE OR YHAT OF STRANGERS.
VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT . WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN, BEGAN TO ENTER THE INTERSECTION WHEN VEHICLE SUDDENLY FLASHED BRAKE WARNING AND BROUGHT CAR TO COMPLETE STOP. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. LUCKILY THE VEHICLE BEHIND DID NOT HIT THE BACK OF MY CAR. THIRD TIME SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED, BAR BRAKING WITH NOTHING IN FRONT OF IT.
VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO START AFTER SHUTDOWN WITH NO DIAGNOSED CAUSE. AFTER SUCCESSFUL SHUTDOWN (PARKED), VEHICLE WILL BE UNABLE TO BATTERY START, WITH LIGHTS AND DASHBOARD ELECTRONICS FLASHING AND STARTER UNABLE TO ENGAGE WHEN PRESSING START BUTTON WITH BRAKE PEDAL DEPRESSED. VEHICLE REQUIRES JUMP START FOR SUCCESSFUL START UPON SYMPTOMS APPEARING. VEHICLE HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO HONDA DEALERSHIPS SEVERAL TIMES FOR DIAGNOSIS AND SERVICE, BUT NO IDENTIFIABLE CAUSE HAS BEEN FOUND. UPON LATEST VISIT, CAR WAS UNABLE TO START IMMEDIATELY AFTER PARKING CAR AT DEALERSHIP. DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED BATTERY (NORMAL, GR8, ED-18 TESTS) AND BOTH TESTS PASSED WITH NORMAL PARAMETERS. DEALERSHIP PERFORMED PARASITIC DRAW TEST WITH NO ABNORMAL DRAW FOUND. DEALERSHIP APPLIED HONDA TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) 17-032 AND DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS SEEMINGLY AT RANDOM INTERVALS AND WITH NO PATTERN TO WHAT COULD CAUSE THE BATTERY TO BE UNABLE TO START THE CAR. PROBLEM APPEARS AFTER PARKING WITH OR WITHOUT PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED PRIOR TO SHUTDOWN, AFTER NO DRIVING ACTIVITY FOR SEVERAL WEEKS, AND ALSO AFTER DRIVING FOR SEVERAL HOURS PRIOR TO SHUTDOWN. NO ACCESSORIES OR LIGHTS ARE LEFT ON OR PLUGGED IN TO THE CAR'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM DURING PERIODS OF NO DRIVING ACTIVITY. THIS PROBLEM SUGGESTS THAT THERE IS AN UNDIAGNOSED ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ON THIS VEHICLE. HONDA AT THIS TIME SEEMS UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO REMEDY THE ISSUE EVEN THOUGH IT PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE - THE INABILITY TO START/MOVE VEHICLE AFTER DRIVING.
ENGINE DIED ON THE HIGHWAY AFTER CAR WENT IN FOR OIL DILUTION RECALL AND HAD THE FIX. THIS RESULTED IN A CRASH.
KEY FOB FOR KEYLESS ENTRY HAS A FEATURE THAT AUTO OPENS ALL WINDOWS. IT IS EASILY ACTIVATED AND PER HONDA CANNOT BE DEACTIVATED. I HAVE FOUND ON 8 OCCASIONS IN 2YEARS ALL MY WINDOWS OPEN TO RAIN OR SNOW UPON GOING TO MY CAR. ALL ITEMS IN CAR COULD EASILY BE STOLEN AND CAR HAS BEEN SOAKED INSIDE ON 4 OF THE 8 EVENTS. THIS WATER/SNOW DAMAGE WILL HAVE AGED MY OWNED VEHICLE. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE IT APPEARS WITH MOST HONDAS IN LAST 7 YEARS. I HAVE FINALLY RESORTED TO BAGGING MY KEYS AND PLACING THEM BY THEMSELVES UP HIGH WHERE THEY CANNOT BE CONTACTED.
GASOLINE IN ENGINE. I HAVE DISCUSSED THIS ISSUE WITH DEALER BUT NO RESPONSE. I ALSO WROTE THIS ENTITY BUT I HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY KNOWLEDGEMENT OF THIS ISSUE. I DO REGULAR OIL CHANGE AND THE OIL ALWAYS SMELLS LIKE GAS JUST BEFORE I TAKE IT I. TO HAVE OIL CHANGES REGULARLY (3500 OR 5000 MILES). PLUS I HAVE YET IN THE 18 MONTHS I'VE OWNED THE CR-V TO GET AN OIL CHANCE NOTIFICATION. I WANT THE ISSUE WITH THIS/MY CR-V BE ADDRESSED AND CORRECTED! I WOULD LIKE TO RECEIVE AN REPLY THAT WILL HELP ME WITH THIS ISSUE!
OIL DILUTION PROBLEM IN THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE. I HAVE CHECKED OIL AND IT IS ABOVE TOP LEVEL LINE AND SMELLS OF GASOLINE. WHEN I TOOK IT TO DEALER THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL BUT IT DIDN'T APPLY TO CARS BOUGHT AND USED IN CALIFORNIA
RECEIVED A NOTICE FROM HONDA ABOUT A RECALL TO UPDATE SOFTWARE AND CHANGE A/C MODULE TO PREVENT MIL FROM COMING ON. WENT TO DEALER AND HAD SERVICE COMPLETED AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD TO CHANGE THE ENGINE OIL PER HONDA DUE TO POSSIBLE CONTAMINATION FROM THE SERVICE ACTION. BUT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE FILTER. TWELVE DOLLARS IS NOT A HUGE AMOUNT, BUT THERE IS NO WAY THE OIL WOULD BE CONTAMINATED BY THIS SERVICE ACTION. NOW THERE IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CRVS CONCERNING OIL DILUTION. THIS SERVICE BULLETIN DOES NOT IN ANY MANNER ALLUDE TO THIS PROBLEM, BUT DOES SEEM TO BE AIMED DIRECTLY AT IT. THE DEALER SERVICE MANAGERS EXPRESS NO KNOWLEDGE OF ANY OIL ISSUES. I HAVE TRIED TO CONTACT HONDA REGARDING THIS AND NO REPLY. AS A SIDE NOTE HONDA IS OFFERING CANADIAN OWNERS A FREE EXTENDED WARRANTY DUE TO THIS ISSUE, AND TO US BUYERS WON'T EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM.
DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY, 65 MPH, WITH ACC CRUISE CONTROL ON. SUDDENLY IT DEACTIVATED. WARNING LIGHT FOR ACC/ ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION/ COLLISION MITIGATION AND BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEMS WARNING INDICATORS CAME ON. BRAKE SYSTEM WARNING WAS PARTICULARLY STRESSFUL. I TRIED BRAKES AND THEY SEEMED NORMAL BUT ACC DEFINITELY DID NOT WORK. TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TO TURN OFF SYSTEM AND TURN IT BACK ON TO NO AVAIL. WINDSHIELD WAS CLEAN AS WAS FRONT SENSOR AREA. AS I WAS ON A HIGHWAY I COULDN'T STOP. AN HOUR LATTER, WHILE STILL ON THE ROAD WARNING LIGHTS WENT OFF AND ALL SYSTEMS WERE AVAILABLE. DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHAT HAD HAPPENED. NOW A MONTH LATER SAME HAPPENED AGAIN AND SYSTEM RECOVERED IN ABOUT AN HOUR WHILE STILL DRIVING. LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM WAS STILL WORKING WHILE THE OTHER SYSTEMS WENT OUT SO THE CAMERA WAS STILL FUNCTIONING. CAR SEEMED TO FUNCTION NORMALLY WHILE THESE SYSTEMS WERE OUT. AS A FORMER MECHANIC,POLICE DRIVING INSTRUCTOR AND CRASH RECONSTRUCTIONIST I KNOW THAT THIS CAN NOT BE CAUSED BY "LOW GAS" OR "GAS IN THE OIL". THIS IS AN ELECTRONICS PROBLEM. I HAVE ALSO HAD THE TIRE MONITORING SYSTEM MALFUNCTION THREE TIMES.
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON POPPED OUT WHEN I PULLED UP IN MY DRIVEWAY AT HOME. FORTUNATELY I WAS ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK.
AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY,COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM FAILED TO FUNCTION
DRIVING ON A MULTI LANE ROAD, NO CARS IN FROM OF ME. MY SPEED WAS ABOUT 45 MPH. COLLISION AVOIDANCE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS ACTIVATED BRINGING VEHICLE TO AN ALMOST COMPLETE STOP. I HAD 2 PASSENGERS WHO CAN CORROBORATE STORY.
GAS IN OIL AFTER RECALL. HAD THE RECALL THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THE ISSUE. A FEW WEEKS LATER AND, NOW MY OIL IS DARK, OVERFILLED AND SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND MY CAR STARTED LEAKING OIL AFTER THE RECALL. LESS THAN 15K MILES
BATTERY DIES AFTER SITTING FOR 5+ DAYS. NEW BATTERY INSTALLED, SAME ISSUE. TSB-032 HAS BEEN APPLIED, STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM.
THE PUSH-BUTTON START DOES NOT ENGAGE ON THE FIRST TRY QUITE OFTEN. IT THEN TAKES THREE OR FOUR PRESSES, REMOVING AND REAPPLYING THE BRAKE PEDAL, TO GET THE IGNITION TO ENGAGE. I HAVE NOT NOTICED ANY PATTERN TO THE FAILURES, SUCH AS COLD ENGINE, WEATHER CONDITIONS. THIS IS NOT A SINGLE EVENT SO HOW DO I ANSWER WHEN? THE DEALER WAS ADVISED REPEATEDLY OF THE PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT EVEN ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM -ALTHOUGH I DON'T KNOW IF YOU CONSIDER IT A SAFETY PROBLEM. IT HAS PERSISTED FROM WHEN IT WAS BRAND NEW MARCH 2017 UNTIL NOW.
GEAR SHIFT LEVER BUTTON BROKE WHILE SHIFTING TO REVERSE TO BACK OUT OF GARAGE. PARTS FLEW OUT. CALLED LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND WAS TOLD "THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE" WITH THAT YEAR CRV'S.
OIL LEVEL IS OVERFILLED AND SMELLS OF GAS WHEN CHECKED ON A LEVEL SURFACE ,MY CONCERN IS MAJOR ENGINE PROBLEMS ETC. I BECAME AWARE OF THE PROBLEM FROM AN ARTICLE I READ IN CONSUMERS REPORT
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO GASOLINE ODOR ON DIPSTICK. *LD *TR
THE HONDA SENSING THAT CONTROL THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING IS DEFECTIVE. THE VEHICLE DOES AUTOMATIC BRAKING WITHOUT ANY OBSTACLES IN VIEW.THE FIRST INCIDENT VEHICLE TRAVELING AT 70 MPH ON THE FREEWAY AND VEHICLE APPLIED THE BRAKES ALMOST CAUSING MULTI CAR COLLISIONS.

ON 3-11-19 AT 6:14 PM I WAS DRIVING WITH MY WIFE ON A PARKWAY. WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND SUNNY, 39 DEGREES. THERE WERE NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME. I HAD THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 61 MPH WHEN SUDDENLY MY VEHICLE PUT THE BRAKES ON DISENGAGED THE CRUISE CONTROL AND LANE ASSIST CONTROL . THEN A CODE FLASHED UP SAYING 'AUTO HIGH BEAM PROBLEM'. AFTER A 15 MINUTES TO REACH MY HOME I CHECKED THE HIGH BEAMS IT WAS FINE.

MY 2017 HONDA CR-V HAS HAD A FEW PROBLEMS. CURRENT ISSUES: 1) BIGGEST COMPLAINT THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON LITERALLY JUST FELL OFF TODAY WHEN I PUT MY CAR IN PARK. THE SILVER BUTTON THAT GOES INTO THE SIDE FELL INTO THE FLOOR. IT SEEMED MORE & MORE LOOSE OVER THE LAST FEW DAYS, BUT I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT. I SHOULD'VE. IT'S A CR-V. 2) FOR THE LAST FEW MONTHS MY PASSENGER BACK SEAT DOOR WON'T LOCK OR UNLOCK WITH MY KEY FOB OR WHEN I CLICK THE BUTTON. I HAVE TO MANUALLY PUSH IT. WHICH MEANS IF ALL THE DOORS AREN'T LOCKED THE CAR WON'T LOCK THE OTHER DOORS. MY CAR IS NOT SECURE WHEN I'M LEAVING IT PARKED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER AND DECELERATED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO COAST THE VEHICLE ONTO THE SHOULDER. THE CONTACT WAITED A MOMENT, RESTARTED THE VEHICLE, AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO TEAM HONDA (4613 E LINCOLN HWY, MERRILLVILLE, IN 46410, (219) 947-3900) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A NEW TRANSMISSION WAS NEEDED. THE CONTACT DID NOT KNOW IF THE VEHICLE WAS BEING REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,000. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.
ENGINE OIL HAS A STRONG SMELL OF FUEL. VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT IN TO THE DEALER, DEALER ADVISED ME THAT THEY NEEDED TO UPGRADE THE SYSTEM. THE UPGRADE HAS NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE VEHICLE STILL HAS A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL COMING FROM THE ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK. EVERYTIME I WOULD FILL UP WITH GAS, THE GAS METER DISPLAYS FEWER AND FEWER MILEAGE RANGE ON A FULL TANK.
GAS SMELL IN CABIN CHEMICAL SMELL IN CABIN GAS IN OIL CONCERNED OF ENGINE BREAK DOWN
I PURCHASE A 2017 HONDA CRV-EX WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE. DURING THE PAST 6 MONTHS I'VE BEEN HAVING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS WITH MY VEHICLE ' THE OIL SMELL OF GAS, PASSENGER COMPARTMENT SMELL LIKE GAS, RISING OIL LEVELS, STALLING AND LOSS OF POWER. I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA MOTOR COMPANY , LTD HAS RECALLED 350,000 HONDA CRV'S IN CHINA BECAUSE OF THE SAME PROBLEM. THE COMPANY IS CALLING BACK THOSE CARS TO RESOLVE A PROBLEM CAUSED BY AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT OF UN-COMBUSTED PETROL COLLECTING IN THE ENGINE'S LUBRICANT OIL PAN. HONDA DEALERSHIPS IN CANADA WITH OIL DILUTION PROBLEMS HAVE ALREADY STARTED REPAIRS OF THEIR 2017 & 2018 HONDA CR-VS AFTER IT WAS CONTACTED BY CANADIAN MOTOR VEHICLE ARBITRATION PLAN (CAMVAP). I WOULD LIKE HONDA TO BUY BACK MY VEHICLE UNLESS I RECEIVED THE SAME REPAIRS AS THE CANADIAN HONDA OWNERS, WHICH ARE THE FOLLOWING: 1.) PERFORMED N60 CAMPAIGN (OIL DILUTION) 2.) REPLACED CLIMATE CONTROL UNIT 3.) REPLACED DRAIN PLUG WASHER 4.) REPLACED OIL 5.) UPDATED PGM-FI AND TCM SOFTWARE. 6.) WARRANTY EXTENSIONS ON ALL ENGINE COMPONENTS FOR UP TO SIX YEARS FROM ORIGINAL DATE OF PURCHASE, WITH NO MILEAGE LIMIT. GIVEN THAT THE PROBLEM IS WELL DOCUMENTED, HONDA HAS A RESPONSIBILITY TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE IN AN OPEN AND TRANSPARENT MANNER. HONDA HAD KNOWLEDGE OF THE TURBO ENGINE DEFECTS THAT CAUSE FUEL TO ENTER THE ENGINE AND DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR. I SEEK A PERMANENT FIX TO THE PROBLEM, NOT JUST A FLUSHING OUT OF THE VEHICLE'S OIL RESERVOIR AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS ALREADY PERFORMED TO NO EFFECT. IF HONDA CANNOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM, I SEEK A FULL REFUND OF MY VEHICLE.
OUR CRV HAS EXCESSIVE UNEVEN TIRE WEAR, AT 17000 MILES THE TIRES WERE WORN BALD ON THE INNER CORNERS MAINLY ON THE REAR OF THE CAR, THE TIRES ARE APPROXIMATELY 7 INCHES WIDE AND THE INNER 2 INCHES ARE BALD , YOU CANNOT SEE THIS UNLESS YOU BEND DOWN AND LOOK UNDER THE CAR FROM THE REAR , THE OUTER CORNERS WICH YOU CAN SEE EASILY HAVE SUFFICIENT TREAD WICH CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS SAFTEY PROBLEM IF S BLOWOUT OCCURS STARTED A COMPLAINT WITH HONDA AND GOT NOTHING ACCOMPLISHED, THEY GAVE ME A RUN AROUND AND BLAMED THE TIRE MANUFACTURER ,IT SIMPLY AN ALIGNMENT PROBLEM THAT THEY REFUSE TO ADRESS
INTERMITTENT FUEL ODOR IN CABIN WHEN STATIONARY AND DRIVING . HEAVY ODOR OF FUEL IN MOTOR OIL AND INCREASED OIL LEVEL ON OIL DIP STICK.
THE LED SCREEN GOES OUT OF CONTROL. WORDS AND IMAGES BECOME SCRAMBLED AND IT KEEPS BUZZING CONSTANTLY. I HAVE NO CONTROL OVER ANY SETTINGS INCLUDING THE RADIO. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES BOTH IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. IF I STOP AND TURN OFF VEHICLE AND TURN IT BACK ON IT SEEMS TO CORRECT ITSELF FOR A WHILE.
WHILE DRIVING, SAFETY SYSTEMS GO OFFLINE. ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE KEEP ASSIST, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION, COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM, AND OTHERS ALL GO OFFLINE AT THE SAME TIME. APPEARS TO HAPPEN AT RANDOM. FIRST VISIT TO DEALER, WE WERE ADVISED THEY DID NOT SEE ANY CODES AND THERE WAS NO MALFUNCTION AT THAT TIME. NEXT VISIT, ALL THE SYSTEMS WERE STILL OFFLINE FROM EARLIER IN THE DAY AND THEY PERFORMED SOME SOFTWARE UPDATES WHICH RESET EVERYTHING. NEXT DAY, SAFETY SYSTEMS WENT OFFLINE AGAIN. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE IT IS RIGHT NOW AND THEY ARE ADVISING THAT IT IS A FUEL ISSUE AND GASOLINE IS GETTING INTO THE OIL . NO EXPLANATION HOW OR WHY THIS IS CAUSING THE SAFETY SYSTEMS TO GO OFFLINE AND BECOME INOPERABLE. HAVE CONTACTED HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES ALONG THEY WAY, CURRENTLY WAITING ON A CASE MANAGER TO CALL BACK.
THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK WAS VERY HIGH DURING A RECENT RANDOM OIL CHECK. THERE WAS A GASOLINE ODOR ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE INFORMED THE LOCAL DEALER WHO SOLD THE CAR (HOWDY HONDA IN AUSTIN, TEXAS), AND HAD THEM PERFORM AN OIL CHANGE. THE DEALER RECOMMENDED TO KEEP AN EYE ON IT. ALSO, I NOTIFIED HONDA USA BY EMAIL. THEY SENT AN AUTOMATED REPLY WITH A CASE NUMBER, BUT MADE NO OTHER ATTEMPT AT CONTACT.
THE REAR BACKUP CAMERA STOPPED WORKING. WHEN I PUT THE CAR INTO REVERSE, THE BACKUP LIGHTS COME ON, BUT THE DISPLAY IN THE CAR STAYS ON WHAT EVER WAS DISPLAYED INSTEAD OF SHOWING WHAT IS BEHIND THE CAR. THIS STARTED LAST WEEK AND HASN'T CHANGED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE CONTACT'S HUSBAND WAS TRAVELING 35 MPH, THE CHECK ENGINE, BRAKE, OIL, AND HILL ACCELERATION WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT CYLINDER NUMBER THREE MISFIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09400744. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO A FAULT TURBO CHARGE ARTICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,640.
THE BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFTER CRACKED WHEN PRESSURE WAS APPLIED BY MY THUMB WHEN TRYING TO SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO NOT BE ABLE TO SHIFT IN AND OUT OF GEAR. FORTUNATELY THE CAR WAS IN PARK AT THE TIME INSTEAD OF DRIVE OR REVERSE. AFTER THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON CRACKED THE KEY WOULD NO LONGER RELEASE FROM THE IGNITION.
YESTERDAY I GOT IN MY CAR TO HEAD HOME FROM WORK. WHEN I TURNED IT ON, I GOT A NUMBER OF SYSTEMS ALERTS, INCLUDING THE ENGINE, BRAKES, POWER STEERING AND OTHERS. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR HOME, BUT WHEN I WAS GOING TO TAKE IT THE DEALERSHIP, THE CAR SPUTTERED AND SEEMS TO BE LOSING POWER AS IF IT WOULD STALL. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT I HAVE GOTTEN SYSTEM ALERTS AND TAKEN THE CAR TO BE REPAIRED. THE FIRST TIME, THE OIL WAS CHANGED AND A SOFTWARE UPDATE PERFORMED. THE SECOND TIME, A SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS PERFORMED. THIS TIME, I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS OVER FULL AND SMELLED OF GAS. THE CAR IS NOW AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR THEM TO DETERMINE THE ISSUE. I LIVE IN TEXAS. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, WAS DURING THE SUMMER. THE LAST TWO TIMES HAVE BEEN IN WINTER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS UNDERGOING ROUTINE SERVICE, THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC NOTICED AN ODOR OF FUEL PRESENT IN THE OIL. ANTRIM WAY HONDA (200 S. ANTRIM WAY GREEN, CASTLE, PA) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.
THIS VEHICLE WAS PURCHASE 6/25/17. SINCE DAY ONE I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH THE DISPLAY INFO SCREEN. THE LATEST PROBLEM IS WITH DIALING MY CONTACTS WITHOUT ME REQUESTING. THE MULTIMEDIA ALSO CYCLES THROUGH DIFFERENT SETTINGS AND SCREENS. TWICE WARNING LABELS COME ON. RADAR OBSTRUCTED WARNING LIGHT COMES ON IN CLEAR SUNNY DAYS. HONDA CORP.SAID THEY ARE WORKING ON A SOFTWARE FIX BUT DATE FOR IT. LOCAL DEALERS NO NOTHING ABOUT THE FIX.. TO DRIVE SAFELY I HAVE TO STOP THE CAR AND SHUT IT OFF THEN RESTART. HONDA CORP CASE NUMBER 09368872
THE WINDSHIELD HAS SOME SORT OF DEFECT AT THE DRIVERS EYE LEVEL. CAUSES DISTORTED VIEW OF ROAD AND OTHER VEHICLES. RON TONKIN HONDA HAS TAKEN PICTURES BUT THE HONDA REP NEVER SHOWS UP IN PORTLAND
I RECENTLY BOUGH A USED 2017 HONDA CR-V. IT HAD ONLY 29,000 MILES WITH A FRESH OIL CHANGE BEFORE PURCHASE. I HAVE PUT OVER 1,000 MILES ON IT SINCE PURCHASE. I RECENTLY WAS INFORMED OF OIL DILUTION PROBLEMS WITH THE 1.5L TURBO AND DECIDED TO CONFIRM IF MY VEHICLE WAS AFFECTED. I CHECKED THE OIL FROM THE ENGINE AFTER LETTING IT COOL AND MY OIL LEVEL WAS ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL. ALSO, THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE COMING FROM THE OIL. THIS DEEPLY CONCERNS ME AS THE OIL LEVEL SHOULDN'T BE ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL AND THE INCREASED WEAR THAT CAN OCCUR FROM DILUTED OIL. HONDA HAS YET TO ISSUE A RECALL OR ADMIT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE. I WILL BE CONTACTING HONDA IN HOPES OF FULL RESOLUTION.
OIL DILUTION PROBLEM. CHECKED OIL LEVEL AFTER SITTING IDLE IN GARAGE FOR HOURS. OIL LEVEL EXCEEDS HIGHEST FULL LEVEL AND DIP STICK HAS DISTINCT SMELL OF GASOLINE.
WARNING LIGHTS TURN ON EVERY ASSISTANT SYSTEM. EVERYTHING DISABLES MAKING THE CAR UNSAFE TO DRIVE.
CRANKCASE OIL DIPSTICK READING WAY OVER FULL 3000 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE. OIL WITH HEAVY GAS SMELL.APPARENTLY GAS SEEPING INTO CRANKCASE.
VEHICLE DOES NOT SHUT DOWN WHEN TURNED OFF. THIS CAUSES A HIGH PARSITIC DRAW ON THE BATTERY WHICH CAUSES THE VEHICLE NOT TO START IN A MATTER OF HOURS. HONDA POSTED A SERVICE BULLETIN STATING WHAT THE PROBLEM IS AND HOW TO FIX IT..SERVICE BULLETIN 17-032. THE SERVICE MANAGER STATED HE NEVER HEARD OF IT. THEN HE WENT ON TO SAY EVEN IF THERE IS A SOFTWARE UPDATE, HONDA WILL NOT ALOW HIM TO DO IT UNLESS ABSOLUTELY NECESSARY BECAUSE OF THE LABOR CHARGE TO HONDA. MY BATTERY BLEW UP RELEASING TOXIC GASSES FILLING THE EXTERIOR OF THE CAR WHICH CONTAIN MY WIFE AND KIDS AT THE TIME. THEY GAVE ME A NEW BATTERY.
WHILE DRIVING IN CRUISE CONTROL, THE BRAKE LIGHT WILL COME ON AND THE VEHICLE WILL ALMOST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP, WITH NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME. MY WIFE AND I WERE ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT WHEN THIS HAPPENED ON I-75 AT 65 MPH. ALSO, THIS BRAKE LIGHT INDICATOR WILL COME ON WITHOUT BEING IN CRUISE. THIS HAS HAPPENED OVER 6 TIMES.
FUEL IS LEAKING DOWN INTO THE OIL PAN RAISING THE OIL LEVELS ON THE DIP STICK AS MILEAGE INCREASES, WHICH WILL RESULT IN PREMATURE POTENTIAL ENGINE FAILURE. THIS IS ALSO GOING TO HURT THE RESALE VALUE OF THE VEHICLE. FOR EXAMPLE, 2K MILES AFTER LAST OIL CHANGE, OIL LEVELS HAVE INCREASED TO A QUARTER INCH ABOVE RECOMMENDED "FULL LEVEL" DISPLAYED ON THE DIPSTICK.
ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES ON AND FLASHES ALL WARNINGS ON THE DASHBOARD. CAR WON'T START CONSISTENTLY, AND IF LEFT OVERNIGHT, WON'T START AT ALL, ALMOST LIKE A DEAD BATTERY. WHEN I TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, THE BATTERY IS FINE. CAR IS DANGEROUS AS IT TURNS OFF WHILE ON THE ROAD.
THE BUTTON THAT YOU PUSH IN ON THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB BROKE OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME. POPPED RIGHT OUT IN MY HAND. SPRING AND ALL. HAD I NOT BEEN ABLE TO PUT IT BACK IN WHEN I GOT HOME, I WOULDN'T HAVE BEEN ABLE TO PUT IT IN PARK. APPARENTLY THIS IS NOT UNUSUAL AS IT HAS HAPPENED TO TWO OTHER PEOPLE I WORK WITH WITHIN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. THE CAR IS NOT A YEAR OLD YET. I WILL CONTACT THE DEALER FOR REPAIR.
OIL DILUTION PROBLEM CAUSING MISFIRES WHILE DRIVING AND THROWING ALL SAFTEY RELATED FEATURES TO THROW CODES AND NOT FUNCTION, THROWS CODES AND MISFIRES WHILE DRIVING.HAS BEEN TO DEALER 3 TIMES AND NOT RESOLVED.
WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED DASH CYCLED THROUGH ALL SYSTEMS, POWER STEERING, BRAKES ETC. SHOWING ALL FAILED! PULLED OVER, STOPPED CAR AND STARTED CAR AGAIN AND SYSTEM RESET ITSELF. DON'T KNOW IF SYSTEMS ACTUALLY FAILED. WENT TO DEALER AND NOTHING SHOWED UP ON THE CARS DIAGNOSTIC EVALUATION. THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME FOR A SOFTWARE UPDATE BECAUSE NOTHING SHOWED AS A PROBLEM. AFTER I COMPLAINED THEY DIDN'T. CAR JUST DID SAME THING AGAIN. DON'T FEEL SAFE IN IT.
WENT TO LOCAL HONDA DEALER FOR REGULAR OIL CHANGE MAINTENANCE. AFTER COMPLETING, NOTICED CAR SEEMED TO BE STALLING AND SLOW/NON RESPONSE IN ACCELERATING. BY THE TIME I GOT HOME ABOUT 7 MILES AWAY, ALL WARNING LIGHTS CAME UP AND CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND GO MORE THAN 5 MP/H. VERY FORTUNATELY THIS HAPPEN NEAR MY HOME WHERE TRAFFIC IS LIGHT. WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS IF IT HAD OCCURRED ON HIGHWAY
THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS IN THE OIL AND IS VERY BLACK WITH 70PERCENT OF OIL LIFE. THE PROBLEM WAS REPORTED AND NOTED AS AN AFFECTED MODEL. NO FIX TO DATE! I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE ENGINE LIFE
DISPLAY FLICKERS AND YOU CAN'T DO ANYTHING ON THE DISPLAY
ENGINE OIL HAS A FLASHPOINT OF 215 DEGREES AND 8.5% FUEL TO OIL RATIO AS MEASURED BY AN INDEPENDENT LABORATORY, BLACKSTONE LABORATORIES. TWO TESTS HAVE BEEN PERFORMED AND SHOW DANGEROUSLY LOW FLASHPOINT LEVELS AND OUT OF SPEC VISCOSITY. THE FLASHPOINT IS WITHIN THE OPERATING RANGE OF THE ENGINE. I AM AFRAID OF WHAT COULD HAPPEN. DEALERSHIP WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND THEY CAN ONLY CHANGE THE OIL AT THE PRESCRIBED TIME INDICATED BY THE CAR. FLASH POINT IS EXTREMELY SERIOUS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE BRAKE, POWER PRESSURE, CRUISE CONTROL, AND LANE ASSIST WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TURNED OFF, RESTARTED, AND TAKEN TO VANN YORK AUTO MALL (422 EASTCHESTER DR, HIGH POINT, NC 27262, 336-841-6200) FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED TO CONTACT TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE DIAGNOSIS INFORMATION WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,100. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.
I AM FINDING MORE OIL IN THE OIL RESERVOIR FROM UNBURNT GAS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V EQUIPPED WITH BRIDGESTONE ECOPIA HL422 PLUS TIRES, SIZE: 235/60R18 (NA). WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH IN THE SNOW, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SLIDE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RYDELL NISSAN OF GRAND FORKS (3220 S WASHINGTON ST, GRAND FORKS, ND 58201, (701) 746-9323) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIRE TREADS WERE WORN. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO THE BRIDGESTONE MANUFACTURER. THE TIRES WERE NOT REPLACED. THE TIRE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE TIRE AND VEHICLE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,000.
WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH BUSY TRAFFIC ENROUTE TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP MY 2017 HONDA CRV EXPERIENCED A SIGNIFICANT DROP IN POWER DROPPING FROM 65MPH SPEED LIMIT TO 20MPH. I HAD SEMI TRAILERS BEHIND ME AND IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I HAD TO DRIVE A COUPLE OF MILES TO FIND A PLACE I COULD PULL OVER ONTO THE SHOULDER OUT OF TRAFFIC. LOSING POWER LIKE THIS PUTS LIVES AT RISK. HONDA SHOULD PROVIDE A RECALL! HONDA CLAIMS IT AS A PRODUCT UPGRADE TO THE 1.5 LITER TURBOCHARGED ENGINE TOURING MODEL. GASOLINE WAS GETTING INTO THE OIL AS IT WASN'T BURNING PROPERLY SO PUTTING MY LIFE AND PROBABLY DAMAGING MY CAR.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN REVERSE, THE GEAR SHIFTER KNOB DETACHED. THE CONTACT REACHED INTO THE GEAR SHIFTER COMPARTMENT AND ENGAGED THE GEAR INTO PARK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO COGGIN HONDA OF FT. PIERCE (4450 SOUTH U.S. 1, FORT PIERCE, FL 34982, (772) 621-5991) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SPRING, BUTTON, AND KNOB NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09342672. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 24,000.
BRAKING SYSTEM AND OTHER SENSORS HAVE BEEN COMING ON AND OFF WITHOUT CAUSE. FOR EXAMPLE, BRAKES ARE ENGAGED EVEN WHEN I AM ALONE ON THE ROAD AND NOT BRAKING. THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT ENGAGE AT TIMES AND WARNING LIGHTS APPEAR FOR NO REASON. IN ADDITION, BLIND SPOT MONITOR COMES ON WHEN NO CARS ARE IN VICINITY. I HAD MY SOFTWARE UPDATED FOR RECALL BUT SAME ISSUES. I JUST WANT TO SEND COMPLAINT FOR OTHERS WHO MAY ALSO HAVE SAME ISSUE WITH HONDA CRV. WHEN I COMPLAINED BEFORE I WAS TOLD IT WAS LIKELY WEATHER RELATED BUT RECENTLY THIS HAPPEN EVEN WHEN WEATHER WAS GREAT, NO RAIN ETC. AS A SIDE THESE SO -CALLED SAFETY FEATURES NEED TO WORK BEST IN RAIN AND OTHER BAD WEATHER. ERROR MESSAGE GO AWAY WHEN I PARK AND TURN OFF CAR. THESE MALFUNCTIONS GENERALLY OCCUR DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING.
OIL MIXING IN THE ENGINE TO THE EXTENT THAT MAY VERY WELL INSTALL THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING IN THE HIGH WAY. HONDA CORP NEED TO GET THIS ISSUE FIXED TO PREVENT IT HAPPEN
2017 HONDA CRV PARKED IN GARAGE, WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START ENGINE, DASH LIGHTS UP WARNINGS AND SOUNDS ALARMS ON BRAKING SYSTEM, CRUISE CONTROL, LANE ASSIST SYSTEM, BATTERY, AND MANY OTHER AREAS. CAR WOULD NOT START AND GOES DEAD WITH SECOND ATTEMPT TO START. DEALERSHIP HAD CAR TOWED IN TO DIAGNOSE. DEALERSHIP STATE THAT TOLL TAG TOO CLOSE TO SENSORS (EVEN THOUGH TAG HAS BEEN ON WINDSHIELD FOR 18 MONTHS WITH NO PROBLEM). TOLL TAG SCRAPED OFF WINDSHIELD. SIX WEEKS LATER, CAR IN GARAGE AND DASH LIGHTS UP WITH ALARMS AND SOUNDS WITH SAME ALERTS. CAR GOES DEAD. DEALERSHIP HAD CAR TOWED IN TO DIAGNOSE.
GASOLINE CONTAMINATING MY OIL. HONDA DEALER DOCUMENTED GAS SMELL IN OIL PRIOR TO OIL CHANGE ON MY RECEIPT.
THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN GOING ON FOR THE PAST YEAR. MULTIMEDIA INFORMATION DISPLAY OCCASSIONALLY CHANGES BRIGHTNESS ON ITS OWN. IT ALSO SOMETIMES ACTIVATES ON SCREEN BUTTONS BY ITSELF. TODAY (2/6/2019), WHILE PLAYING AUDIO THROUGH THE CAR'S BLUETOOTH SYSTEM AND USING THE GPS, THE DISPLAY BLANKED OUT FOR 3 - 5 MINUTES. ALSO, THE BOTTOM HALF OF THE TACHOMETER DISPLAY, VIEWED THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL, BLANKED OUT AND SHOWED A SPINNING WAIT CURSOR. AFTER THAT WAIT TIME, THE MULTIMEDIA DISPLAY TURNED BLACK. THEN ABOUT 30 SECONDS LATER, IT SHOWED THE HONDA SYMBOL. INDICATING THAT IS WAS BOOTING. I HAD BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO MY DEALER LAST FRIDAY FOR MAINTENANCE WORK AND THEY HAD RESET THE MULTIMEDIA DISPLAY. IT SEEMS TOO SOON FOR PROBLEMS TO OCCUR YET AGAIN. ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING. THE RANDOM BRIGHTNESS CHANGES ARE QUITE DANGEROUS AT NIGHT TIME, WHEN MAX BRIGHTNESS OCCURS SUDDENLY. THE RANDOM ON SCREEN BUTTON ACTIVATIONS BECOME DANGEROUS DISTRACTIONS DURING DRIVING. I HAVE BEEN BRINGING THESE PROBLEMS TO MY DEALER'S ATTENTION FOR THE PAST YEAR, WHO SAID THEY ONLY JUST RECEIVED INFORMATION FROM HONDA (IN JANURARY 2019), SAYING THAT HONDA RECEIVED INFORMATION ON DISPLAY ISSUES AND ARE LOOKING INTO IT.
NOTHING HAPPENED.
WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO STALL AND SHAKE. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT BLACK, THEN THE AUDIO SCREEN WENT BLACK. THE GAS GAUGE LIGHT CAME ON, THEN TURNED OFF ON ITS OWN. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS CAME ON, ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS WERE ON. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT THE FUEL INJECTORS NEEDED REPLACING AND THAT IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THE WHOLE AUDIO SYSTEM WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED BUT THAT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER AND WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO ORDER UNTIL MARCH 1, 2019.
I USE THE VEHICLE FOR SHORT TRIPS. NOTICES GAS MILEAGE DRASTICALLY REDUCED TO 20 MPG. THIS STARTTED HAPENING SINCE DE 2018. POSSIBLY DUE TO VERY COLD WEAHTER. MOST OF CASES CAR IS USED TO DROP MY KID TO A SCHOOL THAT IS AROUND 2 TO 3 MILES. MILEASE SHOWS AS 20 MILES PER GALLON. TOUCH SCREEN DASHBOARD SOMETIMES GOES BLANK AND NON RESPONSIVE.
SINCE THE PURCHASE OF OUR NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V, THERE HAS BEEN GASOLINE GETTING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE OIL LEVEL INDICATOR OR DIP-STICK SHOWS THE OIL FAR ABOVE THE FULL MARK AND THERE IS AN OBVIOUS STRONG ODER OF GASOLINE. WHEN FIRST STARTING THE CAR, GASOLINE ODORS ARE VERY STRONG IN THE EXHAUST AND SOMETIMES WITHIN THE CAR INTERIOR. GASOLINE IS CONSIDERED A SOLVENT AND IT WILL REDUCE THE LIFE OF THE ENGINE IF IT IS ALWAYS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY AND AN ENGINE FIRE. I CONTACTED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THREE TIMES ABOUT THE PROBLEM. AT MY LAST VISIT, HONDA FINALLY ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM A PROVIDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. THE PROBLEM REMAINS UNCHANGED. I'M VERY DISAPPOINTED AND FRUSTRATED WITH MY NEW CAR AND WANT SOME HELP GETTING IT FIXED OR HELP WITH RETURNING THE CAR BACK TO HONDA AND REIMBURSED FOR THE COST. THE PROBLEM OCCURS ALL THE TIME, IN COLD AND WARM WEATHER.
MY 2017 CRV HAS BEEN SMELLING OF GASOLINE. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL DIPSTICK, THE OIL LEVEL WAS ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I CONTACTED MY DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THIS ISSUE. SHORTLY AFTERWARD, I RECEIVED A RECALL/"UPDATE" NOTICE IN THE MAIL FOR THIS PROBLEM. I TOOK MY CAR INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE REPAIRS WERE MADE (SOFTWARE UPDATE, REPLACED AC UNIT, OIL CHANGE). ONE MONTH HAS PASSED, AND AGAIN, THE OIL LEVELS ARE HIGH AND THE CABIN SMELLS OF GASOLINE. THE OIL LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK IS, AGAIN, OVER THE FULL MARK. I CONTACTED BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND AMERICAN HONDA MOTORS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN GIVEN A CASE NUMBER AND AM WAITING TO HEAR BACK FROM AMERICA HONDA MOTORS. I AM TAKING PICTURES OF THE OIL LEVELS ON THE DIPSTICK, DOCUMENTING ALL CONTACTS MADE WITH BOTH THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND AMERICA HONDA MOTORS, AND RETAINING ALL PAPERWORK REGARDING REPAIRS TO MY CAR CONCERNING THIS ISSUE.
AMBER CAUTION ANNUNCIATION FOR ACC, CMS, RWDS AND LKAS WITH STEADY BRAKE SYSTEM AMBER INDICATOR WHILE DRIVING ON A TWO-LANE HIGHWAY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. PULLED ONTO SHOULDER OF HIGHWAY, SHUT OFF IGNITION AND RESTARTED, CLEARING THE CAUTIONS.
THE CAR STRONGLY SMELLED OF GAS AFTER RUNNING FOR SHORT WHILE FOR A LONG TIME. WE IGNORED IT INITIALLY. LATER WE REALIZED THAT THE ODOR WAS TOO STRONG TO IGNORE AND WE HAVE TO OPEN THE WINDOW TO GET THE SMELL OUT. THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO MADE SOME CHANGES. IT WAS TAKEN CARE OF. BUT THE SMELL RE-APPEARED AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS AND IT WAS EXTREMELY STRONG DURING THE EXTREME COLD WEEK, END OF JANUARY 2019. OPENED THE HOOD AND CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS TOO HIGH.
ONE DAY AS I WAS DRIVING, ALL PROBLEM LIGHTS ON MY DASHBOARD BEGAN TO TURN ON, CHIME, AND AND GIVING MESSAGES SUCH AS "TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING POBLEM", BRAKE SYSTEM, BREAK HOLD SYSTEM , POWER STEERING, ETC..." AND MY FEATURES SUCH AS CRUISE CONTROL AND BREAK HOLD BECAME DISABLED. WE HAD THE SPARK PLUGS CHANGED AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. WE DID AN OIL CHANGE AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS OVER 5 QUARTS OF OIL COLLECTED WHEN ONLY 3.5 HAD BEEN PURED IN, ALSO THE OIL WAS SMELLING LIKE GASOLINE. WE STARTED RESEARCHING AND IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR/MODEL. MECHANIC DIAGNOSED LOWER COMPRESSION ON CYLINDER #4 AND KEPT GETTING A CYLINDER #4 ERROR.
GASOLINE SMELL. OIL LEVEL INCREASING ON DIP STICK WITHOUT ADDING OIL, STATIONARY
AS I WAS DRIVING BACK HOME FROM SHOWCASE HONDA AFTER HAVING SHIFT LEVEL KNOB, AC HEPA FILTER AND CABIN HEPA FILTER REPLACED. I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, WHEN MY CABIN GOT FULL OF A VERY CLOUDY, FOLLOWED WITH A BAD SMELL THAT MADE ME ROLLED DOWN THE WINDOWS AND PULLED IMMEDIATELY TO THE NEAREST STREET BECAUSE I WAS SO SCARE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SEE ANYTHING.
JANUARY 20 2019 CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP JANUARY 21. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY, A/C UNIT, DID A PROGRAM UPDATE, CHANGED THE OIL AND DRAIN PLUG. TOLD US IT WAS FIXED. HOWEVER, THE CAR IMMEDIATELY GAVE ME PROBLEMS --MORE THAN BEFORE. I WAS ACTUALLY TRAPPED IN MY CAR AND COULDN'T OPEN THE DOORS 3 TIMES. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THE SAFETY SYSTEM CONTINUOUSLY ALERTS BLINDSPOT ACTIVITY, THE MESSAGE "SOME DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEMS CANNOT OPERATE" , THERES A MESSAGE THAT SAYS "COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM DISABLED" THAT APPEARS, THE HAZARD LIGHTS GO ON INTERMITTENTLY AT WILL. TODAY, WE TOOK THE CAR IN FOR A TIRE PROBLEM AND MENTIONED ALL THESE OTHER MESSAGE FAULTS, THE DEALER CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS TOO HIGH (THE "FIX" WAS DONE JUST 10 DAYS AGO) AND THE DEALER TOLD US, "YES, BUT THERE'S NOTHING MORE WE CAN DO, CALL HONDA." SO, I HAVE A $37,000 PIECE OF JUNK I CAN'T TRUST TO TAKE ACROSS TOWN. PS WE WERE COERCED INTO PURCHASING THE EXTENDED WARRANTY -- WHAT GOOD IS A WARRANTY IF THE DEALER ADMITS HE CAN'T FIX THE PROBLEM?
OIL LEVEL IS GOING UP. WHEN YOU CHECK THE DIP STICK, IT SMELLS LIKE GAS AMD IT'S OVER THE MAXIMUM LEVEL. FOR THE HAS PEDAL, WHEN YOU PRESS IT IT'S SQUEAKING.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT ISSUED ANY AIR BAG RECALLS OR TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. HONDA CITY (501 GRUMMAN RD W, BETHPAGE, NY 11714, (516) 717-4766) INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT COVERED BY A WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
MY CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ONCE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND ONCE JUST ON A STRAIGHT ROAD. THIS HAPPENED TWICE, AND I WENT FLYING FORWARD AND ALL MY STUFF ON THE SEAT WENT FLYING. THERE WAS NOT A CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THEY SAID IT MUST HAVE BEEN READING SOMETHING TO DO THIS, AND IT'S TO PROTECT A POSSIBLE PEDESTRIAN. THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN . I CALLED HONDA OF JOLIET TO PUT IT IN MY RECORD. ANOTHER ISSUE IS THE VEHICLE STABILITY LIGHTS, THE ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION, AND A BRAKE LIGHTS ALL FLASH STATING THERE IS A PROBLEM. THESE LIGHTS JUST COME ON WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES . ONCE IT WAS SNOWING. THE SECOND AND THIRD TIME THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR. THE FIRST TIME I CLEARED SOME OF THE 'DRIVING AIDES' AND THE LIGHTS WENT OFF. I TOOK IT TO HONDA OF JOLIET ON 1/25 AND THEY ALIGNED THE RADAR. THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON 1/28 /19 AND THEY SAID THEY REALIGNED IT AGAIN. THEY HAD THE CAR FOR 2 DAYS. THE ORIGINAL REASON WAS THE SENSORS ARE DIRTY, AND IN BAD WEATHER THIS CAN HAPPEN. THEY SAID A CLUMP OF SNOW COULD HAVE CAUSED THIS TOO. SO THIS CAR IS ONLY GOOD IN GOOD WEATHER? THE SERVICE PERSON SAID THEY HAVE HAD A LOT OF CARS IN FOR THIS SAME REASON. ANOTHER PROBLEM WAS I CAME OUT TO FIND MY WINDOWS DOWN, MY SUNROOF OPEN AND MY BACK DOOR OPEN. CAR WAS STATIONARY. DIDN'T TAKE IT IN FOR THIS AND FORGOT TO TELL THEM WHEN I DROPPED IT OFF ON 1/28/19.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL FAILED TO OPERATE AS INTENDED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS BEING DRIVEN. THE CONTACT STATED THAT VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON AND OFF. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE TOUCH SCREEN FOR THE VEHICLE CONTROLS AND THE CRUISE CONTROL WERE INOPERABLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO UMANSKY HONDA (LOCATED AT 960 HILTON HEIGHTS RD, CHARLOTTESVILLE, VA 22901, (888) 686-9143) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.
I WAS GOING TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPOT AT A STORE AND TUBE PARKING GEAR WOULD NOT MOVE INTO PARK. I WAS PUSHING THE BUTTON IN TO MOVE FROM DRIVE TO PARK AND IT WOULD NOT MOVE. THEN THE BUTTON JUST POPPED OUT. I WAS STUCK AS I SCRAMBLED TO FIND THE BROKEN BUTTON. LUCKILY WHEN I FOUND IT I COULD PUT IT IN TO MOVE IT TO PARK EVEN THOUGH IT WAS BROKE. MY CAR IS A YEAR OLD AND WHEN I LOOKED ONLINE TONS OF PEOPLE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO THEM. ISSUE IS IN THEIR CASES THEIR BUTTON COMPLETELY BROKE AND THEY COULD NOT MOVE THE GEAR SHIFTIER. THEY HAD TO USE PLIERS. IT IS A CHEAP PLASTIC BUTTON HONDA IS USING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED .NEXT TIME I MAY NOT BE SO LUCKY. HONDA DID REPLACE THE BUTTON AND I HAVE THE DOCUMENTS FROM THIS.
NOTICE VERY TOXIC GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE CABIN WHEN DRIVING CAR DURING COLDER WEATHER. ALSO, NOTICE GASOLINE SMELL IN GARAGE AFTER CAR IS PARKED. HAVE BEEN MONITORING THE OIL LEVEL FOR THE PAST TWO MONTHS. THE OIL LEVEL WAS 1" ABOVE THE HIGH LEVEL MARK IN DECEMBER 2018 AND TOOK CAR TO HONDA DEALER . THEY REPLACED THE OIL AND MADE A SOFTWARE UPDATE PER A HONDA BULLETIN. THEY NOTIFIED ME IN WRITING THAT THE PROBLEM IS UNDER REVIEW AND HONDA TECHLINE AND ENGINEERS ARE AWARE OF ISSUE BUT NO SERVICE BULLETINS,UPDATES OR REPAIRS ARE AVAILABLE AS OF THIS TIME( DEC. 14,2018) IT IS NOW JAN 28, 2019 AND THE TOXIC GAS SMELL IS MUCH MORE SEVERE. USA HONDA WAS CONTACTED TODAY AND CASE REGISTERED FOR MY VEHICLE. HONDA USA TOLD ME TO AGAIN CONTACT THE HONDA DEALER REGARDING THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS BEEN CONTACTED AND I'M WAITING TO HEAR BACK TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM. HONDA AND NHTSA MAY NOT CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE BUT IT CERTAINLY COULD BECOME A HEALTH ISSUE WHICH IS WHY I AM NOTIFYING NHTSA.
SOMETHING IS CAUSING THE OIL LEVEL TO INCREASE ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE OIL DIPSTICK.
VERY STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE ON OIL DIPSTICK WHEN CHECKING LEVEL OF OIL. OIL IS OVERFILLED ACCORDING TO DIPSTICK WHERE IT IS WELL ABOVE THE FILL MARKING EVEN THOUGHT DEALER FILLED OIL TO SPECIFICATION PREVIOUSLY. OBVIOUSLY GASOLINE IS DILUTING OIL. VERY CONCERNED THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE LONG TERM. DEALER DENIES THERE IS AN ISSUE AND IS UNWILLING TO REPAIR NOTWITHSTANDING THE CAR HAS A TSB IN SEVERAL US STATES AND ALL OF CANADA.
I OWN A HONDA CR-V /EX 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE. AUG 14 2018 NOTICED OIL LEVEL ON DIP STICK WAS ABOVE HIGHEST LEVEL INDICATOR AND OIL SMELLED OF GAS. CALLED INDEPENDENCE HONDA IN BLOOMSBURG PA AND BROUGHT VEHICLE ON AUG 21,1018 FOR APPOINTMENT TO CHECK THIS CONDITION. THEY CHANGED OIL AND TOLD ME THAT HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND IS WORKING ON A FIX. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK IN 3000 MILES FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE. THE SAME CONDITION WAS FOUND ON OCT 22, 2018 WHEN I BROUGHT IT BACK AFTER 3000 MILES. I WAS TOLD HONDA WOULD HAVE A FIX SOON. DECEMBER I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM HONDA WITH PRODUCT UPDATE 2017-2018 CR-V . I CALLED INDEPENDENCE HONDA TO SCHEDULE THE UPDATE ON DEC. 26, 2018 , WHICH WAS PERFORMED. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS THE FIX FOR THIS GAS IN OIL PROBLEM. ON JAN, 23, 2019 I CHECKED THE OIL AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS 3/8" HIGHER THAN THE HIGHEST LEVEL INDICATOR ON THE DIP STICK AND THE OIL SMELLED OF GAS. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO INDEPENDENCE THAT DAY FOR THEIR INSPECTION OF THE PROBLEM. AFTER THEIR INSPECTION THEY TOLD ME THAT THIS IS A NORMAL CONDITION FOR THIS ENGINE. THIS WAS THE SAME PROBLEM THEY HAVE BEEN TELLING ME FOR THE LAST 6 MONTHS THAT HONDA KNOWS THE PROBLEM AND THEY WILL HAVE A FIX FOR IT. THE FIX HAS NOT WORKED ON MY VEHICLE. HONDA NEEDS TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES AND INSTALL NEW COMPONENTS TO PREVENT THIS CONDITION AND ALSO EXTEND ENGINE WARRANTIES. I CONSIDER GAS IN THE OIL A SAFETY ISSUE. IF VEHICLE STALLS OR HAS EXCELERATION ISSUES IN TRAFFIC IT COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY.
DURING NORMAL SHIFTING OF THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LEVER, THE PUSH BUTTON RELEASE ON THE SHIFTING KNOB BROKE IN TWO. THE UNIT WAS UNDER SLIGHT SPRING TENSION AND POPPED OUT AFTER SPLITTING IN TWO. THE CAR WAS STUCK IN DRIVE AND I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL THE TRANSMISSION. THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. UPON A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH AND AFTER DISCUSSIONS WITH A FACTOR MAINTENANCE REPRESENTATIVE, IT APPEARS THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON PROBLEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER FAILED TO OPERATE PROPERLY AND VARIOUS WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE SHIFT KNOB FRACTURED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA OF SLIDELL (510 E HOWZE BEACH RD, SLIDELL, LA 70461, 888-296-2638) AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS REPLACED AND THE SHIFT KNOB WAS REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REMEDY THE FAILURES DURING TWO PREVIOUS VISITS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
HONDA RECALL SB 18-114 2017CR-V IS COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.. BEFORE THE FIX MY CR-V HEATED UP ,& HAD HEAT WITH 2MILES.. NOW THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE DOES NOT MOVE FOR 10 MINUTES.. & THERE IS NO HEAT.. THE CR-V WAS FINE BEFORE THIS FIX.. I RETURNED TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THEM RE-CHECK THIS RECALL.. THEY SAY THAT THIS IS NORMAL NOW.. THE RECALL WAS INTENDED TO MAKE THE CR-V HEAT UP QUICKER , NOT SLOWER.. I'M JUST LETTING YOUR KNOW THIS, AND I WILL ALSO LET NHTSA KNOW. AS THIS MAY NOW BE A SAFETY HAZZARD. AS THERE MAY NOT BE ENOUGH HEAT TO DEFROST THE WINDOWS. PER THE CRVOC.COM : WHAT YOU CAN DO ' GO ON RECORD AND REPORT THE PROBLEM TO THE DEALERSHIP, TO CORPORATE HONDA, AND TO NHTSA.GOV
PUSH KNOB ON MY GEAR SHIFT BROKE OFF WHILE PUTTING MY CAR INTO PARK. I WAS ABLE TO TAPE THE KNOB INTO PLACE SO I WOULD BE ABLE TO DRIVE MY CAR BACK HOME AND CHANGE GEARS.
THE HEAT IN THE CAR DOSE NOT WORK WHEN IT IS COLD OUT. AUTO START DOES NOTHING TO WARM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE DRIVING CONTINUOUSLY TO HAVE THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE MOVE. ONCE THE GAUGE IS 1/2 WAY UP AND I TURN ON THE HEAT, THE GAUGE DROPS ALL THE WAY DOWN. NO WARM AIR COMES OUT, ALSO EFFECTING THE DEFROSTER. IF I HAVE ICE OR FOG ON MY WINDOWS THE DEFROSTER CAN'T KEEP UP SEVERELY IMPAIRING MY VISION, NOT TO MENTION THAT ALL PASSENGERS IN THE CAR ARE FREEZING THE ENTIRE TIME. THIS MORNING THE TEMPERATURE WAS 9 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT WITH A REAL FEEL OF -10 AND DURING MY 30 MINUTE DRIVE TO WORK VIA A HIGHWAY, ALL 4 DOOR WINDOWS WERE FOGGED OVER AND ICE WAS FORMING ON THEM AND THE REAR AND FRONT WINDSHIELD HAVE FOG AND ICE ON ABOUT 50% OF THEM. IF NOT FOR THE SEAT WARMER AND THE BLANKET I WRAPPED MYSELF IN FOR MY CUMMUTE I WOULD HAVE BEEN FROZEN. THIS ISN'T THE FIRST TIME WINTER HAS HAPPENED NOR THE FIRST CAR THAT HONDA HAS CREATED. NO REASON FOR THE HEAT NOT TO WORK.
WHEN PULLING INTO A DRIVEWAY AT A FRIENDS HOUSE, I COULD NOT SHIFT THE CAR INTO PARK. I FINALLY GOT IT INTO NEUTRAL AND WORRYING THAT I MIGHT HAVE TO HAVE IT TOWED, I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE AND HAD INTENTIONS OF PARKING IT IN THE STREET. WHEN I GOT IT INTO REVERSE, THE SHIFT BUTTON BROKE OFF AND SPRING FELL ON THE GROUND. ENDED UP GETTING IT TO THE HONDA DEALER ON 01/07/2019 WHO APPARENTLY HAS SEEN A LOT OF THESE. CAR HAD AROUND 13,500 MILES ON IT AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT.
WHILE DRIVING DOWN 2-LANE ROAD WITH CARS PARKED PARALLEL THE CMBS (COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM) ACTIVATED AT APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH AND ABRUPTLY STOPPED MY VEHICLE CAUSING THE SEAT BELT TO LOCK. REPORTED INCIDENT TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY UPDATED SOFTWARE BUT WERE UNABLE TO REPRODUCE FAULT. SEVERAL MONTHS LATER THE CMBS ACTIVATED AGAIN THIS TIME AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH AND ONLY MOMENTARILY. NO VEHICLES WERE IN FRONT OF ME IN EITHER INSTANCE AND THANKFULLY NONE WERE BEHIND ME. THIS DANGEROUS UNINTENDED ACTIVATION OF THE BRAKING SYSTEM COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS, WHILE GETTING AN OIL CHANGE ON MY 2017 HONDA CRV, THE MAINTENANCE TECH TOLD ME THAT MY OIL SMELLED VERY MUCH LIKE GASOLINE. GASOLINE MUST BE LEAKING INTO OIL SOMEWHERE IN ENGINE. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY AND MAINTENANCE ISSUE.
GAS IS MIXING IN THE OIL OF OUR NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE 1.5 LITER ENGINE DOES NOT WARM UP SUFFICIENTLY IN COLD WEATHER, RUNS RICH, AND LEAVES UN-COMBUSTED GAS IN THE OIL. BEGAN LOSING POWER.
WHILE APPROACHING AND CROSSING OVER A RAILROAD CROSSING AT APPROXIMATELY 30MPH ON A CITY STREET, THE WORD BRAKE FLASHED A COUPLE TIMES AND MY CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED, SO HARD AS IF I SLAMMED MY BRAKES ON AND MY PURSE FLEW OFF THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND I WAS JOLTED FORWARD, MY SEATBELT TIGHTENED. THE SAME THING HAS HAPPENED ONE TIME SINCE THEN. I'M NOT SURE IF THIS IS A BRAKING PROBLEM OR FRONT CAMERA SENSORY PROBLEM BUT IT WAS VERY CONFUSING AND SCARY.
WHILE DRIVING FOR OVER 3 HOURS ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70MPH ALL THE IDIOT LIGHTS COME ON BLINKING AND SHOWING THAT ALL SYSTEMS ARE OFF. STOPPING THE CAR AND SHUTTING OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTING ALL IS RESTORED TO NORMAL. THIS HAS HAPPEN 4 TIMES. THE DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO DUPLICATE THIS. I AM TO TAKE A MOVIE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. I WON'T BE GOING THAT FAR UNTIL AUGUST RETURNING IN SEPTEMBER. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THIS TRIP ONLY.
VEHICLE OIL CONTINUES TO BE AT ELEVATED LEVELS, OIL SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE AND A GASOLINE SMELL CONTINUES TO BE PRESENT IN THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS STILL OCCURRING EVEN AFTER THE SOFTWARE UPDATE WITH A/C CONTROL UNIT REPLACEMENT WAS DONE IN NOVEMBER 2018.
STALLING, LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, SMELL OF GAS IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, AUDIO DISPLAY ERRATIC, ALL WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION; FRONT RUNNING LIGHTS BLINKING WHEN FOOT ON BRAKE. PROBLEMS OCCUR IN COLD WEATHER.
CAR OCCASIONALLY SMELLS LIKE FUEL ON THE INSIDE. THIS HAPPENS AT TIMES DAYS AFTER THE LAST TIME THE GAS TANK WAS FILLED. APPEARS TO BE A LEAK SOMEWHERE. CAN SOMETIMES OCCUR WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY OR IDLING AT STANDSTILL.
ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK SHOWS OIL LEVEL ABOVE FULL AND SMELLS OF GAS. HONDA DEALER CLAIMS NO KNOWLEDGE OF A PROBLEM ALTHOUGH IT IS WELL KNOWN IN INTERNET AUTO BLOGS. I HAD MY OIL TESTED AT BLACKSTONE LABORATORIES AND THE REPORT STATES IT CONTAINS 3.3% OF FUEL AND 'A FAIR AMOUNT OF METAL PRESENT', AND A FLASHPOINT OF 305 DEGREES WHEN IT SHOULD BE ABOVE 370. THIS IS A NEW CAR WITH ONLY 3534 MILES ON IT. OIL DILUTED WITH GAS COULD CAUSE MY ENGINE TO FREEZE UP WHILE DRIVING DUE TO LACK OF PROPER LUBRICATION. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM IN A TURBO ENGINE AND WILL END ITS LIFE PREMATURELY AND POSSIBLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT
CHECK OIL DEEP STICK . IT WENT OVER MAX BY 1 INCH AND IT SMELL GASOLINE. WENT TO HONDA DEALER TO FIX. THEY DID SOFTWARE UPDATE AND AC CPU REPLACE AND OIL CHANGED. STILL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. SOMETIMES MY WIFE AND SON SMELL GAS I DON'T KNOW WHERE IT COMES FROM . REALLY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO NOW....
THE VEHICLE HAS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA WITH UNSAFE LEVELS OF OIL DILUTION IN THE 1.5 CVT TURBO ENGINE. GAS IS MIXING IN WITH THE OIL, CAUSING OIL LEVELS TO RISE. THE FUMES OF GASOLINE ARE ENTERING INTO THE CABIN SPACE AND MAKING IT UNSAFE TO BREATHE. THE ENGINE IS ALSO HAVING STALLING ISSUES DUE TO GAS MIXING IN WITH THE OIL IN THE ENGINE AREA. THIS ALSO HAS AN ISSUE WITH THE ABILITY TO KEEP THE CAR WARM AND PROVIDING ADEQUATE HEAT INTO THE CABIN AREA. THE COMPONENTS OF THIS ENGINE ARE UNSAFE FOR COLD WEATHER CLIMATES SUCH AS THE NORTHEAST. THE CAR CAN NOT WARM UP THE ENGINE SUFFICIENTLY AT IDLE AND THEREFORE WILL NOT BLOW ANY HOT AIR INTO THE CABIN AREA. THE MANUFACTURER STATES THE CAR NEEDS TO BE OPERATING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 MINUTES TO GAIN SUFFICIENT ENGINE WARMTH. THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE, AS MANY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE HAVE FAMILIES AND CHILDREN, AND WE MAKE SHORT TRIPS BACK AND FORTH. FOR THE CAR TO BE COLD AND BLOW COLD AIR AND NOT BE ABLE TO WARM UP IS A FAILURE BY THE MANUFACTURER TO PROVIDE A SAFE VEHICLE. HONDA CASE NUMBER 06673515
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT OIL WAS MIXING WITH THE FUEL. THE DEALER (VANDERGRIFF HONDA, 1104 W INTERSTATE 20, ARLINGTON, TX 76017, (817) 533-4266) NOTICED THE FAILURE AND PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AT NO CHARGE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE 2,000 MILES LATER. THE CONTACT HAD AN OIL SAMPLE SENT OFF FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE RESULTS SHOWED OVER 5.3% OF FUEL IN THE OIL AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT ANY AMOUNT OVER 2% WAS INDICATION OF ANOTHER FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE BE TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS AN UNKNOWN RECALL, BUT THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS DESIGNED IN THIS MANNER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,000.
THE BUTTON ON THE TRANSMISSION SELECTOR CAME OUT. WHEN I PUT IT BACK IN THE TRANSMISSION WOULDN'T SHIFT INTO PARK. THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT THE TIME.
VEHICLE FREQUENTLY RUNS OUT OF BATTERY AND NEED TO JUMP START.
GASOLINE IN THE ENGINE OIL. LEVEL OF ENGINE OIL AS MEASURED WITH DIPSTICK RISING. INADEQUATE HEAT IN PASSENGER COMPARTMENT WHEN AMBIENT TEMPERATURE BELOW 25F WHEN DRIVING AROUND TOWN (10 MILES).
FUEL ODOR IN CABIN AFTER GETTING BACK ON ROAD AT TIMES WHEN REACHING DESTINATION. DIDN'T THINK TOO MUCH ABOUT IT TILL I RECENTLY SMELL GAS ON OIL DIP STICK. I WILL BE CALLING DEALERSHIP ASAP.
AS I WAS DRIVING IN THE FAST LANE OF THE 405 FREEWAY THE CAR STARTED TO VIBRATE AND MAKE A LOT OF NOISE. THEN IT SLOWED DOWN AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AT A NORMAL RATE. I WENT FROM 65 MPH TO ABOUT 30MPH AND BARELY AVOIDED FASTER CARS WHILE PULLING TO THE EXIT LANE. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE SURFACE STREETS HOME. I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE A BLOWN HEAD GASKET SO I CHECKED THE OIL FOR WATER AND FOUND A LOT OF GAS IN IT. THE DIPSTICK SHOWED THE LEVEL TO BE ALMOST 1 1/4 INCHES ABOVE THE MAX LEVEL LINE EVEN AFTER LETTING IT SIT FOR 30 MINUTES. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THAT THIS IS NORMAL AND SAID THE MANUFACTURER SAID ALL I NEED IS AN OIL CHANGE.
DILUTION OF ENGINE OIL, WHICH HAS BEEN INFILTRATED BY GASOLINE. LOW POWER IN DRIVING. STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CABIN. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT FIRST DETECTION OF GASOLINE SMELL.
GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE, GASOLINE OVERFILLING ENGINE OIL. GASOLINE SMELL IN VEHICLE SHORTLY AFTER STARTING WHEN COLD. VEHICLE IS PARKED WHEN THE SMELL IS NOTICED. I'M ALSO WORRIED THAT WITH THE OIL MIXING WITH THE OIL THAT ENGINE FAILURE MAY HAPPEN.
MY CAR IS LESS THAN 39,000 MILES AND I HAD TO CHANGE ALL FOUR TIRES WHICH WERE GIVING ME ISSUES SINCE I PURCHASED LESS THAN 2 YEARS AGO. JANUARY 3RD MY CAR WOULD NOT START. JAN 4TH AND 5TH AGAIN MY CAR WOULD NOT STOP WITHOUT A JUMP. I HAVE HAD NOTHING BUT ELECTRICAL PROBLEM, RADIO BLINKING AND NOT COMING ON OR BRAKE SYSTEM ENGAGING WITHOUT BRAKING ETC. SINCE I HAVE PURCHASED. I HAVE ONLY TAKEN TO HONDA DEALERS ONLY TO BE TOLD ISSUES NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY AND NO EXPLANATION WHY I NEED NEW TIRES AND NEW BATTER WITH A CAR LESS THAN TWP YEARS AND UNDER 39,000 MILES. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING BATTERIES AND ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS AND MY 2017 CAR IS AMONG THEM.
1.5 TURBO ENGINE HAS GASOLINE MIXING WITH OIL (OIL DILUTION) I HAVE 3000 MILES SINCE OIL CHANGE AND IS ABOUT 3/4 QUART OVER FULL MARK, OIL HAS EXTREME SMELL OF GASOLINE. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM BUT SEEMS TO BE DOING NOTHING TO HELP OWNERS IN WHAT THEY CALL "WARMER CLIMATE STATES". THIS SHOULD BE VEIWED AS AN EMISSIONS PROBLEM AT SOME PONT BY THE NHTSA. I HAVE BEEN TO DEALER TWICE FOR VERIFICATION OF PROBLEM, THEY CANNOT DO ANYTHING UNTIL HONDA CORPORATE AUTHORIZES THE FIX WHICH IS BEING DONE IN COLD CLIMATE AREAS.
I CHECK ENGINE OIL YESTERDAY AND FOUND LEVEL VERY HIGH ON DIPSTICK AND SMELLING STRONGLY OF GASOLINE. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER CHECKERED FLAG WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND TOOK IT DIRECTLY THERE.IT HAD ONLY BEEN 180 MILES DRIVEN SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE AT DEALER. THEY OFFERED TO CHANGE OIL AGAIN AND THEN TOLD ME TO KEEP CHECKING OIL LEVEL AND RETURN TO DEALER IN 1000 MILES. I WAS TOLD THE OIL LEVEL WAS HALF QUART OVER FILLED AND WAS BECAUSE GAS WAS NOT BEING BURNED DURING COMBUSTION BECAUSE ENGINE WAS NOT HOT ENOUGH. THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL AND NOT TO WORRY. I DON'T THINK THE OIL WILL PROTECT MY ENGINE WHEN IT IS SO DILUTED WITH GASOLINE.I FILED A COMPLAINT AND GOT A CASE NUMBER [XXX] FROM HONDA AMERICA, BUT WANT THE PROBLEM TO BE FIXED BEFORE THERE IS LONG TERM DAMAGE TO MY ENGINE. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
LAST OIL CHANGE FOUND OIL LEVEL 1/2 QUART HIGH WITH A STRONG GAS SMELL. OIL SAMPLE WAS NOT AS VISCOUS AS OIL SHOULD BE. CONTACTED DEALER BUT NO RESPONSE YET.
IN COLD WEATHER, WHEN THE CAR ISN'T TO FULL OPERATING TEMPERATURE, FUEL MIXES WITH THE ENGINE OIL WHICH INCREASES THE OIL VOLUME OVER TIME. HONDA HAS ISSUED A RECALL IN NORTHERN STATES BUT REFUSES TO ADDRESS OTHER STATES WHERE THE PROBLEM EXISTS (PROBLEM FULLY DOCUMENTED FROM THE LOCAL DEALER). RECALL NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED TO ALL STATES. TOO MUCH ENGINE OIL (MIXED WITH FUEL) WILL CAUSE THE CAR TO STALL. IN ADDITION, AFTER TALKING TO HONDA CORPORATE - THEY INDICATED A POTENTIAL LONG TERM IMPACT WITH DAMAGED A CAM SHAFT. YET, THEY STILL REFUSE TO FIX MY CAR OR PROVIDE FREE OIL CHANGES UNTIL THEY DECIDE TO FIX IT. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR - FULLY DOCUMENTED.
DILUTION OF ENGINE OIL, WHICH HAS BEEN INFILTRATED BY GASOLINE. LOW POWER IN DRIVING. STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CABIN. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AT FIRST DETECTION OF GASOLINE SMELL.
IT SMELLS LIKE GAS IN THE CAR
THE OIL DIPSTICK IS SHOWING THE OIL LEVEL TO BE SUBSTANTIALLY HIGHER THAN THE MAX OIL LEVEL. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER 1/2/19. THEY SHOWED ME A SERVICE BULLETIN INDICATING THAT GAS COULD BE MIXING WITH THE OIL, BUT HONDA CONSIDERED THAT A NORMAL OPERATING CONDITION FOR THAT MODEL. THEY OFFERED NO SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM, BUT DID CHANGE THE OIL AT MY REQUEST. I CONSIDER GAS MIXING WITH THE CRANKCASE OIL A SERIOUS PROBLEM. ACTION SHOULD BE TAKEN TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM.
WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE IN THE CITY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHES ON AND OFF. VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE, CREATING SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. DEALER CONFIRMED ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK HAD UNUSALLY STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. VEHCILE HAS BEEN SERVICED ONCE BY HONDA DEALER. I WAS ASSURED THAT ALL NECESSARY FIXES WERE MADE. SAME ISSUE HAPPENED AGAIN. RETURNED VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER FOR ADDITIONAL SERVICE.
SHIFTER BUTTON (KNOB) ON SIDE OF SHIFTER FELL OUT. CAR WAS STATIONARY RUNNING - JUST STARTED VEHICLE BUT IN "PARK". PART APPEARS TO BE BROKEN PLASTIC. GRAYISH COLOR IS POSSIBLE FAILURE AREA (PHOTO ATTACHED). 12/31/18; 5:50 PM EST; ODOMETER 19907
MY HONDA 2017 CRV WAS PARKED ALL NIGHT.WHEN I WENT OUT THIS MORNING ALL THE WINDOWS AND THE SUN ROOF WERE OPEN.WY KEY FOB WAS ON A TABLE BY ITSELF AND MY WIFE'S. WAS IN HER PURSE.I WAS OUTSIDE AT MIDNIGHT AND ALL WAS OK.ON THE INTERNET I FOUND THAT I WAS NOT ALONE AND HONDA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM.MY SEATS AND CONSUL WERE VERY WET.THIS COULD LEAD TO THEFT AND A LOT OF DAMAGE.PLEASE CONTACT HONDA AS CONSUMERS COMPLAINTS GO UNANSWERED. THANK YOU.
THE CAR IS STALLING FROM TAKING OFF FROM A STOP. IT'S HAS BEEN DETERMINED THERE IS FUEL GETTING INTO THE OIL PAN CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL AT TIMES, MAKING MERGING INTO TRAFFIC UNSAFE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL SOUND COMING FROM THE ENGINE. DCH HONDA OF NANUET (10 NY-304, NANUET, NY 10954, (845) 367-4380) STATED THAT THE NOISE WAS NORMAL. THE CONTACT ALSO NOTIFIED THE DEALER OF A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL AND OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V442000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE) WAS REFERENCED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000. *TT*JB
THE PLASTIC SHIFT KNOB BUTTON POPPED OUT OF THE SHIFTER HANDLE WHILE THE CAR WAS RUNNING AND IN GEAR. I COULD NOT STOP THE ENGINE OR SHIFT GEARS. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO LOCATE THE PLASTIC BUTTON FROM THE FLOOR OF THE CAR WITH MY LEFT HAND AND INSERT IT LOOSLEY INTO THE SHIFTER HANDLE AND THEN PUT THE CAR INTO PARK AND TURN THE ENGINE OFF.
THE HONDA CR-V 2017 TOURING MODEL HAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL KEYLESS REMOTE TRANSMITTER ERROR MESSAGES ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY. THE LAST TIME THIS PROBLEM HAPPENED WAS ON DECEMBER 24, 2018 AT AROUND 5:00 PM AND THE ENGINE WOULD NOT STOP RUNNING. WITH THE VEHICLE IN PARK I PUSHED THE START/STOP BUTTON REPEATEDLY WITH MY FOOT ON AND OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE ONLY WAY I COULD GET TNE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING WAS TO WALK AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEYLESS REMOTE TRANSMITTER AND HAVE THE PASSENGER PUSH THE START/STOP BUTTON. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE HONDA DEALER ON DECEMBER 26, 2018 AND THEY SAID - "NO PROBLEM FOUND AT THIS TIME". THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY THE ENTIRE TIME OF THIS INCIDENT.
GASOLINE ENTERS ENGINE OIL CAUSING IT OVERFILLS AND FAR EXCEEDING THE MAX MARK. ENGINE OIL ALSO HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. IT MAY CAUSE LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE WITH ENGINE OIL DILUTED.
WHEN I GOT INTO CAR IN SHOPPING PLAZA PARKING LOT I ATTEMPTED TO PUT MY VEHICLE IN REVERSE AT WHICH TIME AND THE GEAR SHIFTER KNOB FELL OUT AND CRUMBLED INTO PIECES. NOT ABLE TO MOVE VEHICLE NOR PUT IN PARK. AFTER INSPECTING TEMPORARILY PUT PIECE IN WHICH ENABLED ME TO GET HOME. WHILE DRIVING FELT VERY UNSAFE NOT KNOWING IF IT WOULD REMAIN IN GEAR. ONCE HOME UNABLE TO PUT IN PARK. LUCKILY VEHICLE HAS BUTTON BRAKE SYSTEM WHICH ENABLED ME TO PUT BRAKES ON AND GET HUSBAND'S HELP. HE TEMPORARILY ENABLED VEHICLE INTO PARK AFTER WHICH VEHICLE ALTHOUGH IN PARK NEVER FULLY TURNED OFF. DUE TO CHRISTMAS COULD NOT GET TO DEALER TIL TODAY. BATTERY DEAD. CHARGED, TOOK TO DEALER REPLACED WITHOUT COMMENT. AFTER GOOGLING, THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR A NUMBER OF YEARS. I BELIEVE THIS COULD CAUSE DANGEROUS SITUATIONS. I PERSONALLY WAS VERY DISTRESSED. THIS HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUE. I DEFINITELY BELIEVE IT SHOULD.
THE SHIFTER KNOB, HONDA PART NO. HONDA 54132TLAA62ZB, FELL OFF DURING USE. THIS LOCKS THE TRANSMISSION IN WHATEVER GEAR WAS LAST USED - A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. THE HERITAGE HONDA SERVICE ADVISOR TELLS ME THAT HONDA IS EXPERIENCING A LOT OF THESE FAILURES.
UPON SEEING ALL OF THE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE IN THE CR-V'S AND CIVICS, I INSPECTED THE OIL IN MY 2017 HONDA CR-V ONLY 100 MILES AFTER IT WAS CHANGED BY THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER. I PULLED OUT THE DIPSTICK AND NOTICED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS OVER THE RECOMMENDED LIMIT AND IT WAS VERY DARK IN COLOR. I LEANED INTO THE ENGINE AND NOTICED A STRONG PRESENCE OF A GASOLINE SMELL. I HAVE ALSO NOTICED THE PRESENCE OF THIS SMELL BEFORE INSIDE OF THE CABIN BUT I THOUGHT IT COULD BE FROM SOMETHING ELSE. I AM CONVINCED IT'S COMING FROM THE ENGINE. HONDA NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS.
MY 2017 HONDA CRV HAS FUEL IN THE OIL, CONFIRMED BY DEALERSHIP. THE LAST TIME I HAD IT TO DEALERSHIP THEY CONFIRMED IT HAD 2 QUARTS OF FUEL IN THE CRANKCASE OIL . THIS IS A HAZARD BECAUSE THE ENGINE COULD OVERHEAT AND LOCK UP AS I DRIVE, WHICH COULD LEAD TO AN ACCIDENT. THIS ALSO LOWERS THE VALUE OF MY CAR. THE DEALERSHIP CAN'T FIX IT! I HAVE DRIVEN THE CAR APPROXIMATELY 800 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE . IT IS CURRENTLY A QUART HIGH ON DIPSTICK AND OIL SMELLS OF FUEL.
OIL DILUTION FROM FUEL
MY CAR HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS ON THE DIP STICK AND IT IS OVER THE FULL MARK. I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN MY CR-V TO THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED MY CAR AT. THEY RECOGNIZE THE GAS SMELL AND OVER FULL MARK. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHANGED THE OIL DECEMBER 12TH. 2018 TODAY IS DECEMBER 24TH 2018. I CHECKED THE OIL WHEN THE CAR WAS COLD AND ON A FLAT SURFACE AND THE DIP STICK SHOWS OVERFILL AND HAS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS.
THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON MECHANISM BROKE AS I WAS PARKING WHEN MY CAR ONLY HAD 5,312 MILES ON IT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SAFETY HAZARD AS THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON MECHANISM BROKE WITHOUT WARNING AND CAN MAKE IT SO ONE IS UNABLE TO SHIFT. THE HONDA DEALER AT OCEAN HONDA IN NORTH HOLLYWOOD, CA, REPLACED THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON 12/17/18 BUT IT IS NOT SHIFTING SMOOTHLY NOW WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE.
FUEL SMELL IN CABIN AND OUTSIDE OF VEHICLE. FOUND OIL LEVEL HIGH WITH HONDA SERVICE DOING ALL MAINTENANCE. HIGHLY DOUBT UPDATED SOFTWARE WILL PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 61,000 MILES. BEEN DOING THIS SINCE PURCHASE.
AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFT HANDLE BUTTON (SHIFT LEVER KNOB )BROKEN (CAME APART INTO PIECES)。UNABLE TO CHANGE GEARS。
ENGINE OIL LEVEL ABOVE FILL MARK AND HAS STRONG SMELL OF GAS. TYPICALLY DRIVING. CABIN TEMP IS BELOW WHAT I AM ACCUSTOMED AND ENGINE WILL NOT WARM-UP QUICKLY IN COLD WEATHER. CONSUMER REPORTS HAS A REPORT THAT SEEMS TO MATCH MY CONCERNS. SUPPOSEDLY HONDA HAS A FIX, BUT DEALER SAID NO FOR MY VIN.
ONE OF THE BUTTONS ON THE SHIFT HANDLE BROKE APART. CAR COULD NOT BE SHIFTED INTO PARK OR REVERSE, ONLY INTO DRIVE1 AND DRIVE 2. ENGINE COULD BE TURNED OFF BUT NOT THE ACCESSORIES THEREBY CAUSING BATTERY FAILURE. CAR WAS BEING PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. TOWING COMPANY AND DEALER SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THIS HAS OCCURRED BEFORE.
THE LOCKOUT BUTTON ON THE SIDE OF THE TRANSMISSION SHIFT LEVER POPPED OFF, PREVENTING THE VEHICLE FROM SHIFTING OUT OF PARK. THIS CAN OBVIOUSLY CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BE DISABLED. THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP SAID THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2017-2018 HONDA CR-VS, BUT I COULDN'T FIND A RECALL FOR IT.
HAD THE FIRST OIL CHANGED AT 5,658 MILES IN OCTOBER, 2018. MENTIONED THE FUEL IN OIL ISSUE WITH 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINES (PER CONSUMER REPORTS) TO SERVICE REP AT ANNAPOLIS HONDA. HE CLAIMED TO HAVE NEVER HEARD OF IT. CHECKED MY OIL TODAY (12/21/18, 7,600 MILES), OIL LEVEL IS ELEVATED APPROX. 1/2 INCH ABOVE THE FILL LINE FROM OCTOBER WITH STRONG GASOLINE SMELL IN THE OIL. HONDA CLAIMS TO HAVE A FIX FOR THIS BUT WILL ONLY ROLL IT OUT IN NORTHERN TIER STATES IN THE US. PROBLEM IS MUCH MORE WIDESPREAD AND NEEDS TO BE IMPLEMENTED NATIONALLY. POTENTIAL FOR PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE AND FIRE IF NOT FIXED
FUEL SMELL IN CABIN
IST OIL/FILTER CHANGE BY DEALER AT 4K MILES ALL APPEARED TO BE NORMAL. 2ND OIL/FILTER CHANGE BY DEALER AT 8K MILES OIL LEVEL WAS EXCESSIVELY HIGH OVER DIPSTICK MAX FILL MARK BY 1/2 INCH AND OIL DIPSTICK HAD INTENSE GASOLINE SMELL AND OIL VISCOSITY WAS EXTREMELY LOW. DEALER SAYS HONDA IS INVESTIGATING AN 'OIL DILUTION' ISSUE WITH THIS ENGINE TYPE.
NO HEAT WHILE IDLING CANNOT DEFROST WINDSHIELD. HONDA DEALER STATES CRV DOES MAKE HEAT WHEN DRIVING AT SPEED. HOW I DRIVE AT SPEED WHEN CRV CANNOT DEFROST / CLEAR ICE BUILDUP FROM WINDSHIELD EVEN AFTER IDLING FOR 30-45 MINUTES ? UN-SAFE IN DALLAS, TX
AFTER 6,000 MILES & NEAR TIME FOR OIL CHANGE THE 1.5T ENGINE HAS GAINED A QUART OF OIL [GAS IN OIL] AND NOW A QUART OVER FULL. SMELLS LIKE GAS IN OIL AND SOMETIMES SMELL GAS FUMES WHEN PARKED IN GARAGE AT HOME.
OIL IS CONTAMINATED WITH GASOLINE AT A CONCENTRATION OF 4.8% AND FLASHPOINT OF 290 DEGREES. SMELL OF GASOLINE IN ENGINE OIL. ENGINE OIL HAS BEEN CHANGED TWICE ACCORDING TO VEHICLE SPECIFICATIONS. VEHICLE IS NOT LOCATED IN A STATE WHERE HONDA IS PROVIDING FIXES FOR THE ISSUE, EG REPROGRAMMING COMPUTER AND HVAC CONTROL UNIT.
THE SHIFTER LOCK BUTTON CAME OUT OF THE SHIFTER HANDLE. THE VEHICLE HAD APPROXIMATELY 59500 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, I HAD JUST SHIFTED INTO REVERSE. I HAVE THE BUTTON TEMPORARILY HELD IN WITH A RUBBER BAND. I HAVE A REPAIR APPOINTMENT WITH THE HONDA DEALER FOR THURSDAY, DECEMBER 20, 2018. WHEN I WENT IN TO MAKE THE APPOINTMENT, THE DEALER SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT THEY ARE KEEPING THE PARTS IN STOCK. INTERNET SEARCHES REVEAL SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS : HTTPS://WWW.BOGLEHEADS.ORG/FORUM/VIEWTOPIC.PHP?T=261896 HTTPS://WWW.CRVOWNERSCLUB.COM/FORUMS/137-2017-PRESENT-OFFICIAL-SPECS-FEATURES-ETC-GEN-5/175490-HELP-2017-CRV-SHIFT-KNOB-REMOVAL.HTML
DEC 18, 2018, DEAR SIRS, I BOUGHT THIS CAR NEW ON OCT 13, 2017. IN DECEMBER 2017 I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE IT TOOK A VERY LONG TIME FOR THE ENGINE TO WARM UP, IF I TURNED THE HEATER ON THE TEMP GAUGE WOULD GO TO COMPLETELY COLD. THE DEALER TOLD ME THIS WAS NORMAL. I JUST FOUND OUT TODAY THAT THESE CARS HAVE AN ENGINE PROBLEM WITH GASOLINE GETTING INTO THE OIL AND DILUTING IT. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS 1/4" ABOVE THE FULL MARK. THE OIL WAS CHANGED IN JANUARY OF 2018 AT 4200 MILES, IT NOW HAS 7200 MILES ON IT. I WILL NOW TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE THE OIL CHANGED AGAIN. THESE TWO PROBLEMS, AS I UNDERSTAND IT ARE RELATED IN THAT A COLD ENGINE WILL ALLOW MORE FUEL PAST THE PISTON RINGS UNTIL IT WARMS UP. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM IN DEC 2017 WHEN THE CAR HAD 700 MILES ON IT. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR
MY 2017 HONDA CR-V HAS A STRONG FUEL ODOR COMING FROM THE ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK. ALSO, THE OIL LEVEL RISES ABOVE THE FULL MARK INDICATOR ON THE DIPSTICK. A FUEL ODOR COMING FROM THE VENTS WHEN THE HEATER IS ON. ALSO, HEATER DOESN'T APPROPRIATELY HEAT UP THE CABIN. CONSEQUENTLY, I TOOK MY CAR TO A HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THEY WERE UNAWARE OF THIS BEING A PROBLEM. THEY RAN A DIAGNOSTICS ON THE CAR AND TOLD ME TO COME BACK WHEN NEXT OIL CHANGE IS DUE. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS FUEL ODOR PROBLEM ON THE INTERNET, I DISCOVERED THAT THIS ISSUE WAS A RESULT OF GASOLINE LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL COMPARTMENT. THIS PROBLEM IS CALLED OIL DILUTION AND IT CAUSES THE CAR TO STALL UNEXPECTEDLY. THIS MAY HAPPEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH WHEN TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. ALSO, IT IS HAZARDOUS TO BE INHALING GASOLINE FINES COMING FROM THE VENTS. NOT TO MENTION THE DAMAGE IT'S CAUSING TO THE ENGINE ITSELF. HONDA HASN'T TAKEN ANY ACTION TO FIX THIS SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD.
RADIO LOCKS UP AND THEN INDICATOR LIGHTS ON DASH FLASH - BRAKE FAILURE, VSA FAILURE, TPMS FAILURE, LDW FAILURE, ACC FAILURE, LKAS FAILURE, CMBS FAILURE. HAD IT AT HONDA SERVICE TWO TIMES AND THEY REINSTALLED SOFTWARE AND DID A HARD REBOOT. ISSUE REARED ITS HEAD AGAIN DEC 14, TOOK TO HONDA SERVICE WITH LIGHTS FLASHING FOR A COMPUTER READ. SERVICE SCHEDULED FOR DEC 19 TO LOOK INTO ISSUES AND PERFORM RECALL REPAIR. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON SINCE I TOOK IT IN DEC 14. CAR SEEMS TO RUN FINE EVEN WITH INDICATOR LIGHTS FLASHING. ISSUE HAPPENED FIRST TIME WHILE ON INTERSTATE GOING 70 MPH. SECONG TIME ON BACKROAD GOING 45 MPH.
ACC AND LKAS WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP, THEY WASHED THE CAR AND SAID THE PROBLEM WAS LEAVES BLOCKING SENSOR. NEXT TIME I STARTED THE CAR, GOT STEADY CHIME FROM DASH TELLING ME THERE WAS AN ACC PROBLEM. CONSISTENT ISSUE. THERE WERE NO ACCIDENTS, DAMAGES AND IT WAS A CLEAR, BRIGHT DAY IN BOTH CASES.
WINDSHIELD CRACKED BY CHANGING TEMPERATURES.. GLASS DEALER SAID WINDSHIELD GLASS CRACKED UNDER BODY STRESS.
FUEL MIXING WITH OIL. AFTER TWO OIL CHANGES ON THIS ISSUE - OIL LEVEL IS HIGHER THAN NORMAL. INDEPENDENTLY VERIFIED BY CARLAND HONDA MECHANIC (STATE BRIDGE RD) GEORGIA 30005
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHEN THE CONTACT CHECKED THE OIL, THE DIPSTICK HAD A FUEL ODOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GOUDY HONDA (1400 W MAIN ST, ALHAMBRA, CA 91801, 626-576-1114) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 8,456. *TT CONSUMER STATED GASOLINE IS IN THE OIL CABIN FILER.*JB 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'
OIL LEVEL INCREASED AND DILUTED. I SMELL GAS ON OIL DIP STICK.
ON 12-5-2018 I STARTED SMELLING GAS FUMES IN AND AROUND THE VEHICLE, WHILE DRIVING OR PARKED. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP 12-7-2018, SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT AND WENT IN TODAY. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT SAID ALL THEY CAN DO IS CHANGE THE OIL AS THEY DON'T HAVE A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM OF FUEL GETTING INTO OIL ON MY 1.5 TURBO. (THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE 2015 BASED ON DOCUMENTATION FOUND ON THE INTERNET.) WHEN I GOT READY TO LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP THE GAS SMELL STARTED UP AGAIN SO THE OIL CHANGE DOESN'T APPEAR TO HAVE HELPED. SINCE THIS HAS STARTED I'VE ALSO STARTED GETTING HEADACHES WHEN I DRIVE MY VEHICLE. I'M ALSO CONCERNED THAT MY VEHICLE COULD CATCH FIRE OR BREAKDOWN. I'M NOT SURE WHAT ELSE TO DO.
I SMELL GASOLINE IN THE CABIN WHILE DRIVING. I'M REALLY CONCERNED BECAUSE I HAVE MY 2 YEAR-OLD SON IN THE CAR WITH ME MOST OF THE TIME. THAT'S GOING TO CAUSE SOME HEALTH ISSUES. THE OIL LEVEL SHOWN ON THE DIP STICK IS ALWAYS HIGH AND HAS HEAVILY GAS SMELL WHEN DIP STICK IS PULLED OUT OF ENGINE.

AGAIN-THERE IS ONLY 4K MILES ON THIS 'VEHICLE'. ALL THESE ISSUES RELATE TO SAFETY, EITHER TO ANYONE INSIDE THE VEHICLE OR OTHERS ON THE ROAD. I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN DRIVING THIS (PAYING MORE ATTENTION TO CLUSTER,DRIVING SUBTLETIES ETC THAN TRAFFIC), AND AM VERY UPSET IN PAYING THE PAYMENT EACH MONTH WHILE HEARING THE 2 DEALERS BLAME EACH OTHER, AND WHILE HONDA SHRUGS THEIR SHOULDERS. I AM TAKING IT, ONCE AGAIN, TO THE DEALER THIS SATURDAY FOR AN 'UPDATE' TO THE SOFTWARE-PER HONDA CASE MGR NAOMI XT 87075. DOCUMENTATION CAN BE PROVIDED ON REQUEST-- I AM OUT OF TIME AND PATIENCE. THERE ARE MANY MORE PEOPLE WITH THESE DOCUMENTED ISSUES ON THIS VEHICLE THAN ARE BEING REPORTED HERE- (SEE GOOGLE AND SOCIAL MEDIA). I DREAD HAVING TO DRIVE IT SATURDAY NINE MILES TO THE DEALER. THIS IS THE TOP SELLING CAR IN ITS CLASS-- THERE IS A MAJOR PROBLEM BEING DRIVEN DAILY ON THE HIGHWAYS OF THE USA. MY ISSUES BEGAN APRIL 2017 (PURCHASES 3/30/2017) AND HAVE BEEN ONGOING THROUGH DEC 2018. PLEASE HELP!!
MY 2017 CR-V EX-L HAS THE OIL DILUTION ISSUE. CURRENTLY READING 1.5 INCHES HIGHER THAN THE MAX FILL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK. VEHICLE SMELLS SO BAD...LIKE SULFUR SMELL OR GAS. IT IS AN OVERPOWERING SMELL AND MAKES ME NAUSEOUS. THIS CAN OCCUR AFTER IDLING FOR A FEW MINUTES, OR AFTER DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY FOR 30 MINUTES. IT IS NOT JUST A SHORT DRIVING DISTANCE ISSUE. HONDA HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS, AND YET CONTINUES TO SELL THE VEHICLE. THEY HAVE NOT COME UP WITH A FIX THAT WORKS. TAKING IT IN TO THE DEALER TOMORROW. AFTER DRIVING THIS FOR 2 YEARS WITH THIS ISSUE, I CAN ONLY IMAGINE THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE ON MY ENGINE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. FUMES THAT FILL THE INSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ARE NOT HEALTHY OR SAFE. AT SOME POINT, THE OIL ISSUE COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD OR THE ENGINE COULD FAIL AT ANY MOMENT. WHY IS HONDA NOT BEING FORCED TO FIX THIS WITH A RECALL AND/OR BUY BACK THESE VEHICLES?
THE "INFOTAINMENT" OR NAVIGATION SCREEN MALFUNCTIONS AND TURNS ITSELF OFF. THIS RESULTS IN LOSS HEATING AND COOLING CONTROLS AS WELL AS OTHER IMPORTANT SAFETY FUNCTIONS.
THE CAR WAS NOT IN MOTION. IT IS WINTER IN MICHIGAN. WHEN CHECKING THE OIL DIPSTICK THE LEVEL OF OIL ON THE STICK WAS HIGH AND SMELLED STRONGLY OF GASOLINE. HAVING HEARD OFTEN OF THIS ISSUE WITH THE 2017 TURBO CRV, I NOW UNDERSTAND IT TO BE THAT GASOLINE IS LEAKING INTO MY OIL AND COULD CAUSE STALLING WHILE DRIVING. I HOPE THAT HONDA WILL ADDRESS THIS ISSUE SOON AND RECALL ITS US CRV'S FOR REPAIR QUICKLY.
AFTER NOTICING A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CABIN, I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AND FOUND THE DIPSTICK INDICATED THE OIL LEVEL WAS ABOUT 1/2-1 QUART TOO HIGH. SINCE I HAD THE OIL CHANGE BY A DEALER ABOUT 2500 MILE BACK AND I HAD CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, I FOUND THIS OIL LEVEL READING PUZZLING. THEN I SMELLED THE DIPSTICK AND NOTICE A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR FROM THE OIL. I AM NOW WORRIED ABOUT THE HAZARD OF GASOLINE VAPOR EXPOSURE AND THE WEAR EFFECTS OF DILUTED ENGINE OIL. THERE ALSO MAY BE AN INCREASED ENGINE FIRE HAZARD.
GAS DRIPPING INTO OIL PAN CAUSING OIL DILUTION AND OVERFILLING OF OIL TANK. TOOK MY HONDA CRV TO WEST COUNTY HONDA, ELLISVILLE. THEY CHANGED THE OIL, BUT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM
WE ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME FUEL DILUTION IN THE ENGINE OIL THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS WITH 2017-18 CR-VS WITH THE 1.5T ENGINE ARE EXPERIENCING. WE LIVE IN VA. I FEEL AS THOUGH I DON'T NEED TO GO INTO DETAILS AS THIS ISSUE IS SO WELL KNOWN, PROMPTED A BAN ON SALES OF THE VEHICLE IN CHINA, ETC. THEY KEEP PUSHING BACK THE RECALL AND NOW ANNOUNCED FOR THE FIRST TWO MONTHS, IT WILL ONLY BE AVAILABLE IN SELECT NORTHERN STATES. A SIMPLE SEARCH THROUGH COMPLAINTS SHOWS THAT THIS PROBLEM IS NOT ISOLATED TO THE NORTHERN STATES, IT MAY BE EXACERBATED BY SIGNIFICANTLY COLD WEATHER, BUT THE WAY THEY ARE ROLLING OUT A RECALL IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. IT'S UNSAFE (CAUSES STALLING VEHICLES ON THE HIGHWAY AND IN TRAFFIC, WHICH IS MOST DEFINITELY A SAFETY CONCERN) AND CAUSES PREMATURE WEAR ON THE ENGINE (A CONSUMER PROTECTION ISSUE). NHTSA NEEDS TO STEP UP AND ACCELERATE ENFORCEMENT ACTION, E.G. MAKE THEM ACCELERATE THE RECALL TO ALL OF THEIR CUSTOMERS, NOT JUST JUST ARBITRARY CLASSIFICATION AND ORDER BASED ON WHETHER OR NOT YOU LIVE ON ONE SIDE OF A STATE LINE OR THE OTHER. IT GETS COLD IN VA TOO. THE HONDA DEALER BASICALLY TOLD US WE'RE OUT OF LUCK UNTIL THE RECALL, AND TO KEEP CHANGING THE OIL.
ALONG WITH MY GAS IN THE OIL TANK ISSUE, THE CAR DOES NOT HEAT UP ANY LONGER. IT WAS 37 DEGREES HERE IN NY AND MY CAR IS ONLY OUTPUTTING COLD AIR. I'VE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP ALREADY AND THEY COULD NOT FIX EITHER ISSUE. I AM EXTREMELY FRUSTRATED.
MY CAR IS HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE HONDA SENSING. BRAKING ON ITS OWN AT RANDOM TIMES AT VARIOUS RATES OF SPEED. THE MOST SERIOUS ON THE HIGHWAY AT SPEED OF ABOUT 75 MPH. THE CAR SHUT DOWN AND THE COMPUTER SYSTEMS HAD ALL KINDS OF CODES OF SYSTEM FAILURES. ALSO NOW WE ARE HAVING AN ISSUE OF OIL DILUTION DUE TO GASOLINE. MY OIL WAS CHANGED A FEW DAYS LATER STILL OVER THE FULL LINE AND FUMES OF GAS EVIDENT. TALKING WITH HONDA DEALERSHIP CURRENTLY WHERE PURCHASED AND HONDA CORPORATE CASE WAS FILED. SO FAR THEY ARE DOWN PLAYING IT IN TEXAS DISPITE NUMEROUS CONSUMER COMPLAINTS AND COMMONALITY OF ISSUE BEING REPORTED AT THE DEALERSHIP LEVEL.
WHILE DRIVING MY '17 HONDA CR-V EX, IT SUDDENLY SPUTTERED, STARTED LOSING POWER & WOULDN'T LET ME ACCELERATE OVER 10MPH. MALFUNCTION INDICATOR STARTED BLINKING. I WAS IN 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC WITH NO PLACE TO PULL OVER. I PUT FLASHERS ON & CARS DROVE AROUND ME. I GOT TO A SIDE ST & THE MANUAL SAID IF INDICATOR IS BLINKING, IT'S A MISFIRE IN ENGINE'S CYLINDERS & TO WAIT FOR ENGINE TO COOL DOWN. I SAT FOR 40 MINS & MADE IT BACK HOME CLOSE BY & CALLED HONDA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE WHO TOWED IT TO HONDA NEW ROCHELLE. I CAN'T REMEMBER BEING THAT FRIGHTENED DRIVING. WHEN BOB FROM HONDA NR CALLED HE SAID MY CAR HAS TOO MUCH OIL, ABOVE TOP OF DIPSTICK & IT'S THE FAULT OF THE PERSON WHO CHANGED THE OIL (ON OCT. 30, 5 WKS EARLIER). COMPLAINTS LISTED IN 2 10/2018 CONSUMER REPORT ARTICLES (BELOW) RE '17 HONDA CR-V EX STATE GAS IS MIXING WITH THE OIL & OIL LEVEL SOMETIMES RISES ABOVE FULL LEVEL ON DIPSTICK. BOB SAID HE KNEW ALL ABOUT THE CR ARTICLES. HONDA CHARGED ME $213.99 FOR DIAGNOSTICS & TO CHANGE THE OIL. HE SAID THAT WAS MY CHOICE OR I COULD HAVE THE CAR TOWED SOMEWHERE ELSE. MY CAR HAS APPROX 4,600 MILES ON IT. MY 2 SISTERS HAVE THIS SAME CAR & WE OFTEN HAVE CHILDREN IN IT. WE'RE PETRIFIED NOW ABOUT SUDDENLY LOSING ACCELERATION. HTTPS://WWW.CONSUMERREPORTS.ORG/CAR-REPAIR-MAINTENANCE/HONDA-CR-V-AFFECTED-BY-ENGINE-TROUBLE/ HTTPS://WWW.CONSUMERREPORTS.ORG/CAR-REPAIR-MAINTENANCE/HONDA-DELAYS-CR-V-TURBO-ENGINE-FIX-DETAILS-ROLLOUT-PLANS/ THE CR ARTICLES DESCRIBE EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY CAR & DETAIL THE PROBLEM AS HAPPENING ESP. TO DRIVERS IN COLD STATES WHO MAKE FREQUENT SHORT TRIPS. THAT DESCRIBES ME. IT SAID HEAT IN THIS MODEL CAN BE AN ISSUE & MY HEAT/DEFROSTER HAVE NEVER WORKED WELL. HONDA HAS A SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH THIS SUV, & HONDA NEW ROCHELLE DISMISSED MY CONCERNS ABOUT THE CONNECTION BETWEEN THE CR REPORTS & MY RECENT TERRIFYING DRIVE.
FUEL IS MIXING IN WITH THE OIL, CAR IS MUCH MORE SLUGGISH, NOTICING GAS SMELL IN THE CABIN (THAT CANT BE HEALTHY!!)
ONGOING PROBLEM WITH VEHICLE SINCE NEW DURING PA WINTER WEATHER. VEHICLE PARKED OVERNIGHT 20 TO 40 DEG F. VEHICLE ENGINE DOES NOT WARM UP WHEN DRIVING EVEN AFTER BEING REMOTELY STARED AND ALLOWED TO RUN FOR 10 MINUTES. HEATER CONTROL SET TO HIGH, FAN SPEED SET TO LOW. TEMPERATURE GAGUE WILL RISE TO ONE QUARTER OR HALF NORMAL THEN DROP TO THE COLD POSITION AGAIN AFTER A FEW MILES. TEMP. GAGUE WILL EVENTUALLY RISE AGAIN TO ALMOST NORMAL BUT IF VEHICLE IS STOPPED FOR TRAFFIC, RED LIGHT OR COFFEE STOP IT WILL DROP DOWN TO COLD AGAIN. ALL THIS TIME (12 TO 15 MILES) THE CABIN HEAT AND WINDSHIELD DEFROST ARE PERFORMING POORLY. IF VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND SHUT DOWN FOR HALF TO ONE HOUR AND RE-STARTED IT WILL PERFORM PROPERLY WITH NORMAL HEATER AND DEFROST FUNCTION.
SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE CAR,OIL LEVEL OF THE VEHICLE IS WELL ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE DIPSTICK...EACH TIME UPON CHECKING OIL LEVEL THERE HAS BEEN AN INCREASE..
THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON IS BROKEN. SEARCHED ONLINE THAT THEY ARE ALL 2017 CRVS. MY CASE IS EVEN WORSE THAT ONE BROKEN PART GETS STUCK INSIDE AND I CAN'T SHIFT IT FROM D TO P. WE SUCCESSFULLY TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT'S BROKEN WHEN DRIVING.
1. GASOLINE LEAKING IN TO ENGINE OIL. EVIDENT BY GASOLINE SMELL AND HIGH LEVEL WHEN CHECKING OIL. 2. POOR OR NO HEAT IN COLD WEATHER CONDITIONS. THIS CAUSES A SAFETY RISK DRIVING IN SNOWY WEATHER. WINDSHIELD WILL NOT DEFROST. TYPICALLY HAPPENS DURING STOP AND GO CITY DRIVING. SERVICE APPOINTMENT IS CURRENTLY SCHEDULED FOR 12/6 AND ISSUE WILL BE REPORTED TO THE DEALER ALSO.
GAS DILUTION OIL, CAR SMELLS GAS INSIDE, HONDA DON'T CARE ABOUT
1) PUSHED IGNITION BUTTON AND PUT GEARSHIFT INTO R TO BACK OUT OF GARAGE 2) GEARSHIFT NOB SPONTANEOUSLY POPPED OUT ONTO MAT 3) COULDN'T SHIFT INTO P, ONLY N 4) CAR ON INCLINE DRIVEWAY INTO STREET THAT WAS BUSY WITH MORNING TRAFFIC 5) REQUIRED TO KEEP FOOT ON BRAKE WHILE LOOKING FOR NOB 6) AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES, FOUND NOB AND WAS ABLE TO PUT BACK INTO PLACE AND SHIFT GEAR INTO D AND DROVE BACK INTO GARAGE AND THEN PUT GEAR INTO P 7) EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! NOB COULD HAVE BEEN IRRETRIEVABLE WITH NO WAY TO KEEP CAR FROM SLIDING INTO TRAFFIC OTHER THAN WITH FOOT ON BRAKE; NO OTHER WAY TO KEEP CAR FROM MOVING; NO MANUAL BRAKING METHOD AVAILABLE 8) SUBSEQUENTLY ON INTERNET SEARCH, THIS IS KNOWN PROBLEM 9) WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO DEALER AND HAVE MECHANISM REPLACED IN 1 DAY
OIL DILUTION PROBLEM; WE HAVE EXPERIENCED THE BURNING OF GAS/OIL SMELL IN THE INTERIOR FROM THE PURCHASE DATE OF THE CAR, ENGINE OIL SMELLS LIKE GAS, OIL LEVEL HIGH ON DIP STICK, COLD IN OUR STATE, DRIVE CAR PLENTY OF MILES EACH DAY AT 65-70 MILES PER HOUR - SHOULD BE BURNING OFF GAS, RECENT OIL CHANGE AT 15% OIL LIFE - OIL WAS HIGH ON DIP STICK PAST FILL MARK. CONTACTED HONDA. MADE COMPLAINT. THEY SAID OUR STATE WAS NOT COVERED IN RECALL BECAUSE OUR STATE IS NOT COLD ENOUGH. THEY SAID WE NEED TO TAKE OUR CRV TO HONDA DEALERSHIP. I HAVE MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH DEALERSHIP.
ALL LIGHTS FLASHING IN THE DASH CRUSE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY THE CAR HAS BRAKED VERY QUICK WITHOUT TOUCHING THE BRAKE THE COMPUTOR HAS BEEN RESET SERVEL TIMES AND THE PROBLEM COMES RIGHT BACK THIS STARTED IN JAN 2018 AND IS STILL DOING THIS
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE DECELERATED TO 35 MPH AND THE CHECK ENGINE SYMBOL ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED VALLEY HI HONDA AT (760) 962-9600 (LOCATED AT 15710 VALLEY PARK LN, VICTORVILLE, CA 92394) AND WAS INFORMED TO HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE SHOP. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE IT DIAGNOSED THAT THE MASS AIR FLOW WAS HIGH. THE TECHNICIAN ADDED FUEL CONDITIONER, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN CHANGED THE OIL AND UPDATED THE COMPUTER SYSTEM. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 47,100.
I CAN SMELL GAS IN MY CABIN EVERY ONCE IN AWHILE. THE FIX FOR THIS ISSUE WAS PROMISED BY THE END OF NOVEMBER, YET WE HAVE NO INFORMATION YET. I HAD REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO MY DEALER IN THE PAST, AT THE TIME THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NOTHING. ON MY LAST VISIT THEY CLAIMED THEY HAD SPILLED SOME OIL DURING THE OIL CHANGE AND THAT WAS THE SMELL. THEY SEEM TO BE STALLING WHILE THEY AWAIT A FIX. THEY ALREADY HAVE A RECALL ISSUED IN CHINA, WHY NOT HERE? -- GAS IN OIL (HTTPS://WWW.CARS.COM/ARTICLES/FIX-COMING-FOR-HONDA-CR-V-OIL-FUEL-PROBLEM-DETAILS-STILL-UNCLEAR-1420703180990/)
GASOLINE INTO MY ENGINE, STALLED ON HIGHWAY LAST YEAR..
SHIFT LEVER BUTTON BROKE. UNABLE TO PUT IN PARK OR NEUTRAL CREATING AN UNSAFE CONDITION.
THE PROBLEM THAT WE ARE EXPERIENCING ON AND OFF FOR MORE THAN 1 YEAR WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IS WARNING LIGHTS ALL COMING UP AND DISABLING THE KEY SAFETY FEATURES: BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE, LANE KEEPING ASSIST PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM. THIS HAPPEN AT NORMAL CITY DRIVING, FREEWAY DRIVING, WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON AND/OR WITH CRUISE CONTROL OFF. THE CAR IS STILL OPERATIONAL BUT WITH WARNING LIGHTS. WHEN YOU TURN OFF THE CAR, AND RESTART THE ISSUES MAY OR MAY NOT GO AWAY. WHEN IT DOES GO AWAY, IT WILL RANDOMLY OCCUR AGAIN. THIS PROBLEM HAPPEN WHEN WE HAD THE CAR FOR 3 DAY OLD AFTER BUYING IT BRAND NEW AND TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER AND THEY LOOK AT IT AND DID A SOFTWARE INSTALL. BUT, IT NEVER CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE LIVE WITH THIS ISSUES FOR MORE THAN A YEAR NOW AND ARE NOW FED UP. WE ARE FRUSTRATE OF THE THOUGHT OF BRINGING IT TO THE DEALER AND HAVING THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO US AGAIN.
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON BREAKS. DOES NOT LET YOU SHIFT BACK INTO PARK. LEAVES STUCK IN THE POSITION THAT THE BUTTON BROKE IN. MANY COMPLAINTS ON YOU TUBE, DANGEROUS PROBLEM, CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED.
USER INTERFACE (UI) FOR RADIO OPERATES INCONSISTENTLY. BEGAN HAVING ISSUES WITHIN A FEW WEEKS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. TOUCHSCREEN REPEATEDLY FREEZES, GOES BLACK, OR THE VOLUME IS UNABLE TO BE CONTROLLED. FREQUENTLY THE VOLUME WILL GO ALL THE WAY TO THE HIGHEST LEVEL ALONE OR WHILE YOU ARE TRYING TO ADJUST IT UP/DOWN. THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR ALL OF THE RADIO ISSUES ARE TO ROLL THE WINDOWS DOWN SO YOU DON'T LOSE YOUR HEARING AND PULL THE CAR OVER, SHUT THE CAR OFF, & RESTART THE CAR. THIS IS STARTLING WHEN THE VOLUME GOES ALL THE WAY UP AND IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. YOU CANNOT HEAR WHAT'S GOING ON AROUND YOU & ARE IN A DANGEROUS PREDICAMENT IN TRYING TO GET PULLED OVER SOMEWHERE SAFE TO RESTART YOUR CAR. I BEGAN REPORTING THE ISSUE IN SEPTEMBER 2017 TO MY DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM WAS WITH APPLE. NOW HONDA STATES THAT IT IS A "KNOWN ISSUE" BUT HAS PROVIDED NO SOLUTION. I HAVE NUMEROUS VIDEOS OF THESE OCCURRENCES FOR DOCUMENTATION. ADDITIONALLY, MY ENGINE OIL SMELLS OF GASOLINE. THE DIPSTICK READS HIGH AND THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAS ADVISED ME TO CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 1,000 MILES AND TO NOT DRIVE SHORT TRIPS. THE ENGINE HESITATED ONCE WHILE IN TRAFFIC. THE ENGINE DOES NOT HEAT UP AT IDLE AND DURING COLD WEATHER YOU CANNOT OPERATE YOUR WINDOW DEFROSTER. THIS CAUSES SAFETY ISSUES BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SEE OUT THE WINDOWS. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO RIDE WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN WHEN IT'S COLD IN ORDER TO SEE. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR DOWN THE INTERSTATE AT APPROX. 20,000 MILES I HEARD A POP. WHEN I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION, I SAW THAT THE GEAR SHIFTER KNOB POPPED OUT. THIS RENDERED ME UNABLE TO SHIFT MY CAR FROM DRIVE TO ANY OTHER GEAR. HONDA SEEMS TO BE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE, AS THE SERVICE TECH AND ADVISOR BOTH STATED THAT THIS HAPPENS "ALL THE TIME." DEALERSHIP REPLACED KNOB. HONDA MADE A DEFECTIVE & DANGEROUS PRODUCT. THEY REFUSE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEMS.
THE SHIFT KNOB ON THE GEAR BROKE LOOSE. THIS HAS CAUSED THE GEAR TO UNABLE TO SHIFT INTO PARK. DEALER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM SO THEY HAD PARTS ON HAND TO REPLACE FOR CUSTOMERS.
I SMELL GASOLINE AND CHECKED THE OIL ON SEVERAL OCCASION. THE GAS FUMES CAME FROM THE OIL CHECK, GAS IN OIL. I BROUGHT TO COVINGTON LA HONDA DEALER TODAY 11-29-2018 AND THE ADVISED ME THAT IT IS WORKING AS DESIGNED, AND NO PROBLEM WAS FOUND AT THIS TIME. I AM CONCERNED FOR SAFETY REASONS, FIRE AND CAR STALLING, AS WELL AS THE FACT THAT THERE IS A RECALL ON THIS BUT NOT IN MY AREA.
I BOUGHT THIS CAR APRIL OF 2017 AND I ALREADY HAVE A ELECTRICAL PROBLEM AFTER A MONTH. WE WENT FOR A VACATION AND AS WE WENT BACK, MY CAR IS NOT STARTING ANYMORE. I REPORTED THIS TO PERFECTION HONDA AND THEY TOLD ME THAT MY BATTERY IS IN 100 PERCENT OK. LAST THANKSGIVING (2018) IT DID THE SAME THING. THE BIGGEST ONE IS ENGINE OIL SMELLS GAS ON IT. I TRIED TO REPORT THIS TO PERFECTION HONDA, ALBUQUERQUE NEW MEXICO BUT REASONED OUT THAT THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THIS CAR. I'M NOT RECOMMENDING CRV EX AND UPPER MODELS TO ANY CONSUMER SAME WITH PERFECTION HONDA FOR POOR SERVICE QUALITY.
MY CAR WHEN 1ST TIME START ENGINE IN AM ,THE WHOLE CAR SHACKING ABNORMAL AND THE GASOLINE SMELL SOME TIME BUT I DON'T KNOW WHAT WRONG
ENGINE OIL WAS 1 QUART OVERFULL. OIL SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. ENGINE OIL VISIBLY THINNER THAN NORMAL. REPORTEDLY, THIS PROBLEM IS SYSTEMIC WITH CR-V'S AS OURS WITH THE TURBO 4 CYLINDER. THE GASOLINE SHOULD BE EVAPORATING DUE TO ENGINE TEMP; BUT, IT'S NOT -- AS A RESULT THE GASOLINE DILUTES THE ENGINE OIL AND CAUSES THE OIL LEVEL TO RISE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FUEL WAS CONTAMINATING THE ENGINE OIL. A TEST OF THE VEHICLE OIL WAS SENT TO BLACKSTONE LABORATORY AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT 2.3 PERCENT OF FUEL WAS MIXING WITH THE OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JEFF FYLER HONDA OF FLORENCE (LOCATED AT 949 BURLINGTON PIKE, FLORENCE, KY 41042, (859) 283-2727), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 09075248. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,500.
THERE'S A GASOLINE ODOR INSIDE THE CARS CABIN AND UNDER THE HOOD, NO GAS LEAKS ARE VISIBLE. THE CAR HESITATES DURING FULL THROTTLE MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO GET OUT OF SOMEONES WAY OR ENTER THE HIGHWAY SAFELY. .
ENGINE STALLED MULTIPLE TIMES IN LAST ONE YEAR WHEN ACCELERATING FROM YELD/STOP. IT HAPPED TWICE WHILE YIELDING AND MERGING ONTO HIGHWAYS; WE WERE LUCKY THERE WERE NO VEHICLES ON HIGHWAY DURING MERGING, OTHERWISE SITUATION WOULD HAVE THE WORST . ALSO ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH BOARD FLASHES WITH FAILURE WARNINGS. AT THAT POINT ENGINE ALMOST STALLED RUNNING ONLY AT SPEED OF 10 M/H ATLEAST WHICH HELPED ME TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY. I SWITCHED OFF AND ON, ENGINE CAME LIVE, BUT ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS WERE STILL THERE. WARNINGS ON THE DASHBOARD WERE CLEARED ONLY NEXT DAY AFTER WHOLE NIGHT IDLE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALER, EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND ALSO PROVIDED THEM THE VIDEO THAT MY FRIEND SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT RECORDED WHILE INCIDENT HAPPENED. DEALERSHIP TRIED TO PULL THE ERROR CODE, BUT NONE WERE FOUND. DEALER ASKED ME TO KEEP THE VEHICLE WITH DEALERSHIP AS THEY NEED TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE. FORTUNATELY THEY REPRODUCED THE EXACT SAME ISSUE, AND FOUND THE ENGINE CYLINDER MISFIRES IN 1 AND 4. THEY INTIMATED HONDA ENGINEERING FOR ASSISTANCE, AND HONDA ASSISTED THEM TO RECALIBRATE THE SYSTEM WITHOUT FINDING THE ROOT CAUSE. DEALERSHIP RECALIBRATED AND DIRECTED BY HONDA AND TOLD ME THAT IF THE ISSUE HAPPENS AGAIN THAT WILL BE FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. ALL THESE TRANSCRIPTS WERE RECORDED IN SERVICE HISTORY OF MY VEHICLE. THE SAME ISSUE APPEARED YESTERDAY AGAIN. WHEN I RESEARCHED ABOUT THE ISSUE ON INTERNET, MOST OF THEM COMPLAINED ABOUT THE ENGINLE OIL AND GAS MIXUP. I CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL WITH OIL CHECK STICK PROVIDED BY HONDA, AND OIL LEVELS ARE WAY ABOVE THAN MAX MARK AND OIL SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE; AND MORE OVER THE OIL LOOK VERY THIN ALMOST LIKE WATER THICKNESS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MANCHESTER HONDA (24 ADAMS ST, MANCHESTER, CT 06042) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND HONDA WAS WORKING ON A REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,423.
MY 2017 HONDA CRV EX 1.5 LTR TURBO ENGINE HAS AN OIL DELUTION ISSUE FUEL IS GETTING INTO THE CRANKCASE DELUTING THE OIL TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ALL THEY DID WAS CHANGE THE OIL I CONTACTED HONDA GOT A CASE NUMBER#09145359 THEY SAID SOMEONE WOULD CALL ME ABOUT THE ISSUE. NO ONE HAS CALLED AT THIS TIME NOV 26TH 2018
MY 1.5L TURBO CHARGED ENGINE HAS A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR IN THE ENGINE OIL. SO GASOLINE IS MIXING WITH MY ENGINE OIL AND MAY CAUSE EARLY ENGINE FAILURE OR A SAFETY ISSUE. I NOTICED THE GASOLINE SMELL WHEN CHANGING MY ENGINE OIL AND THE CAR IS PARKED.
ON 11/24/2018 ON I-81 NEAR STAUNTON VA. DURING HEAVY RAIN AND HOLIDAY TRAFFIC AT 70 MPH IN LEFT LANE PASSING TANDEM 18 WHEELER ON INCLINE WITH 18 WHEELER CLOSE BEHIND CAR SUDDENLY ENTERED "LIMP" MODE. CAR BEGAN MISSING BADLY WITH NO POWER AND BEGAN SLOWING TO A DRIFT. COULD NOT MOVE RIGHT, PULLED AS FAR LEFT TO GUARD RAIL, RIGHT SIDE CAR WHEELS STILL IN PASSING LANE, TRAFFIC SWERVED AROUND THE CAR. AT APROX. 10 MPH I HAD A SLIGHT BREAK IN TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE SWERVE ACROSS TRAFFIC TO RIGHT SIDE. SURPRISINGLY THE CAR IDLED FINE. BACKED DOWN RIGHT SIDE 1/4 MILE TO EXIT, DROVE IN "LIMP" MODE TO HONDA DEALER. THE DEALER HAD FOUND THE CAR HAD ENTER LIMP MODE BECAUSE WATER HAD ENTERED INTO THE MAF SENSOR AND INTAKE TUBE. THE AIR BOX HAD NOT BEEN PROPERLY SEALED LIKELY DURING A DEALER SERVICE 1 WEEK PRIOR. THE AIR FILTER WAS WET AND REPLACED. INTAKE TUBE AND MAF SENSOR PULLED AND DRIED. MY ISSUE IN WRITING THIS IS THE CAR SHOULD NOT ENTER "LIMP" MODE AND CUT POWER JUST BECAUSE A SENSOR REPORTS IN BAD. CARS ARE DESIGNED TO CRUMPLE TO ABSORB IMPACT AND SAVE THE DRIVERS BUT YET HERE "LIMP" MODE IS DESIGNED TO SAVE THE EQUIPMENT ACTUALLY PUTS THE OCCUPANTS AND IN MY CASE OTHERS ON A CROWDED INTESTATE HIGHWAY AT RISK. A CAR SHOULD NEVER BE DESIGNED TO PUT ITS PASSENGERS AND THOSE AROUND THEM AT RISK AS THIS CRV DID IN MY CASE. LIMP MODE IS A VERY VERY BAD IDEA.
INFOTAINMENT SCREEN WILL RANDOMLY FLASH, DIM AND BEEP. THIS HAS CAUSED SEVERAL SAFETY ISSUES INCLUDING HIGH LEVEL OF DISTRACTION AND FAILURE OF THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM AT ALL THE WRONG TIMES. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR STOPPED. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN REPORTED TO THE DEALER AND THEY HAVE FAILED TO FIND A SOLUTION. THEY CLAIM NO ONE ELSE HAS REPORTED SIMILAR PROBLEMS. THIS IS LAUGHABLE DUE TO ALL OF THE ONLINE COMPLAINTS AND YOUTUBE VIDEOS DOCUMENTING THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REFUSED TO ATTEMPT A REPAIR OR REPLACEMENT OF AFFECTED DEFECTED COMPONENTS.
EXCESSIVE OIL IN SUMP. ROOT CAUSE IS FUEL MIXED WITH OIL.
BATTERY WAS DEAD AFTER PARKING ON STREET, HAD TO CALL FOR EMERGENCY ROAD SERVICE TO JUMP CAR. THERE WAS NO EXCESSIVE USAGE OF BATTERY OR ELECTRONICS IN THE CAR
I NOTICED A GAS SMELL IN MY CABIN OF THE CAR AND CHECKED THE OIL AND NOTICED A GAS SMELL THERE TOO. I LOOKED IT UP ONLINE AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE BUT NO RECALLS FROM HONDA. I AM TRYING TO GET AN APPOINTMENT, BUT IT'S BEEN DIFFICULT.
SHIFTER BUTTON POPPED OUT WHILE DRIVING/VEHICLE IN MOTION. DEALER INDICATED A FREQUENT ISSUE BUT NO HONDA RECALL.
SINCE PURCHASING MY HONDA CR-V 1.5 TURBO IN 2017 I HAVE EXPERIENCED TWO EPISODES OF MY CAR STALLING OUT WHILE DRIVING ON NYC STREETS. ON BOTH OF THESE OCCASIONS I NARROWLY AVOIDED GETTING REAR ENDED AND BEING FORCED INTO THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME, DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE CAR BEHIND ME SWERVED TO AVOID COLLIDING INTO ME. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED MANY FAILURES OF MY HONDA SENSE SYSTEM WHEREBY MY ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM FAILED, MY ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM FAILED, WHERE MY AUDIO POWER WENT OFF, MY AUTO HIGH BEAM SYSTEM HAD FAILURES, WHICH LEAD ME TO FEEL VERY UNEASY DRIVING MY VEHICLE. AT ALL TIMES, MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. I HAVE EXPERIENCED THESE SYSTEM FAILURES WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING ON COUNTRY ROADS AND ALSO WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAYS! THIS WAS NOT A ONE TIME OCCURRENCE. THESE THINGS HAVE HAPPENED MANY TIMES!
FUEL IS MIXING IN OIL. THE OIL DIPSTICK SMELLS LIKE GAS AND THERE IS A GASOLINE SMELL IN THE CABIN WHEN THE HEAT IS ON. HONDA CALLS IT ABNORMAL OIL DILUTION. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER HE PUT DOCUMENTATION OF OIL SMELL ON DIPSTICK ON RECEIPT BUT SAID HONDA HAS NO FIX FOR THIS IN KANSAS. CALLED HONDA OF AMERICA CUSTOMER SERVICE REFERRED TO CLAIM MANAGEMENT TEAM WHO SAID NO FIX FOR THIS IN KANSAS AND HE "DOESN'T THINK IT WILL HURT THE ENGINE" EVEN IMMEDIATLY AFTER OIL CHANGE THE DIPSTICK STILL SMELLED LIKE GAS EVEN AFTER WIPING IT. I BELIEVE THAT OIL DILUTION CAN CAUSE WEAR DAMAGE TO AN ENGINE. I DRIVE MY CRV 3 MILES TO WORK.
AN ALARMING AMOUNT OF GASOLINE IS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. ALSO THE CAR PRODUCES LITTLE HEAT WHEN THE HEATER IS ON.
VEHICLE HAS GASOLINE THAT GETS INTO THE OIL, RAISING THE LEVEL WHEN THE OIL IS CHECKED. THERE IS A VERY STRONG ODOR OF GAS WHEN YOU CHECK THE OIL. THE CAR WILL BE RUNNING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS FLASH AND ENGINE LOSES POWER AND YOU HAVE TO CRUISE TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. LIGHTS THEN GO OFF AND ENGINE RUNS FINE, BUT THERE IS STILL A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE UNDER THE HOOD AND ESPECIALLY IN THE OIL. WE ARE AFRAID OF A POSSIBLE FIRE, ENGINE DAMAGE, OR LOSING POWER AND CONTROL (POWER STEERING, POWER BRAKES, ETC.), POSSIBLE CAUSING AN ACCIDENT.
WHEN I WENT TO PUT MY CAR INTO PARK (CAR WAS STATIONARY IN A PARKING SPOT) THE KNOB WAS MISSING AND NOWHERE TO BE FOUND. I WAS UNABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK. I HAD TO ASK A STRANGER TO LOOK AROUND THE FLOOR BED AND OTHER POSSIBLE PLACES SO I COULD EXIT MY VEHICLE. IT RANDOMLY POPS OUT (WHILE DRIVING) AND I AM CONSTANTLY LOOKING FOR IT. HOW CAN I SAFELY DRIVE A CAR WHEN I MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO PUT THE CAR INTO PARK?
FUEL IS GETTING IN ENGINE OIL AND DELUTING IT. 1.5 TURBO ENGINE. CALL HONDA OF AMERICA THEY SAID TO TAKE TO DEALER FOR INSPECTION. HONDA GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER. DEALER CHANGE OIL TOLD TO KEEP A WATCH ON IT. CALLED HONDA BACK WITH CASE NUMBER THEY SAID HONDA HAS NO FIX AT THIS TIME. I WAS TOLD JUST TO WATCH FOR SOMETHING ON THE INTERNET TO SEE IF THERE WAS GOING TO BE A FIX. MEANWHILE MY ENGINE IN BEING DAMAGED BY NOT HAVING PROPER OIL LUBERCATION FROM FUEL BEING IN OIL
GASOLINE IS GETTING INTO THE OIL, RAISING THE OIL LEVEL AND CAUSING THE OIL TO SMELL OF GASOLINE AND LOSE ITS EFFECTIVENESS. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE GAS GETTING WHERE IT DOESN'T BELONG AND CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS IS AFTER 5 DAYS OF USE AFTER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THE OIL WAS CHANGED BY THE DEALER BEFORE I BOUGHT IT.
OIL DILUTION. WHEN CHECKING THE LEVEL OF MY OIL, IT IS WAY OVERFULL ON THE DIPSTICK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ( ROUSH HONDA - MEDINA ), AND WAS INFORMED THAT YES, THE OIL LEVEL IS HIGH, AND THEY CONFIRMED OIL DILUTION WHERE THE OIL IS DILUTED WITH GASOLINE. THEY INFORMED ME THAT IT IS NORMAL AND DOES NOT POSE A PROBLEM. I DO NOT BELIEVE THEM, I HAVE READ OF INSTANCES WHERE PEOPLES CR-V'S HAVE STALLED OUT, AND OF PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE. GASOLINE IN THE OIL CAN NOT BE RIGHT.
I SMELL GAS IN MY CABIN AND FOUND GAS IN MY ENGINE OIL WHICH WAS OVERFILLED. I FEEL DIZZY AND HAD HEADACHE DUE TO THAT SMELL.
ENGINE OIL BEING DILUTED BY GASOLINE CONTAMINATION, OVERFILLING THE CRANKCASE. LIQUID LEVEL IS ABOVE THE MAXIMUM LEVEL PERMITTED ON THE DIPSTICK. KNOWN PROBLEM WITH 2017-2018 HONDA CR-VS. SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE STALLING WHILE DRIVING, THOUGH I HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED THAT YET. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN DISCOVERED.
OIL DILLUSTION GAS GETTING IN OIL ONLY 1000 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE ONLY 15000 ON CAR DEALER HAS NO FIX OIL SMELLS LIKE GAS
GAS IS MIXING WITH THE OIL CAUSING AN OVERFILL SITUATION IN THE ENGINE OIL. IT IS ALSO CAUSING THE OIL TO BE DILUTED AND MAY BE CAUSING PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR. YOU CAN CHECK THE OIL AND THE DIPSTICK CLEARLY SHOWS AN OVER FILL SITUATION AND YOU CAN SMELL GAS ON THE DIPSTICK.
I OCCASIONALLY NOTICED THE SMELL OF GASOLINE AROUND THE CAR. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL IT WAS ABOUT 1/4 IN. ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER (SCOTT HONDA OF WEST CHESTER) WHERE THEY CONFIRMED THE HIGH OIL LEVEL AND NOTED THE SMELL OF GASOLINE IN THE OIL. I WAS TOLD THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE TURBO ENGINE BUT HONDA DID NOT HAVE A FIX AVAILABLE. THE DEALER CALLED HONDA AMERICA AND WAS AUTHORIZED TO CHANGE THE OIL UNDER WARRANTY.
I FOUND A GAS SMELL IN THE OIL FOR MY 2017 HONDA CR V. THE DEALER SAID NOTHING ABOUT THE ISSUE ON MY LAST OIL CHANGE. I TOOK THE CAR TO DAMSON HONDA ON 10/182018. THEY VERIFIED THAT GAS WAS IN THE OIL WITH AN .19 MM ADDITIONAL VOLUME. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS
THERE IS GAS IN MY OIL. I HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES YET, BUT I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY AND KNOW THAT THIS IS DAMAGING MY VEHICLE.
CRANKCASE IS FILLING WITH GASOLINE FROM THE CYLINDERS CAUSING A HIGH LEVEL ON THE OIL DIPSTICK (APPROX.1/2 INCH ABOVE THE HIGH MARK) ALSO KNOWN AS OIL DILUTION.OIL HAD NO VISCOSITY WHEN I CHANGED IT AND IT REAKED OF GASOLINE.TWO DIFFERENT HONDA DEALERS AND AMERICAN HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE ALL ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT THEY HAVEN'T COME UP WITH A REMEDY YET.MEANWHILE MY VEHICLES ENGINE AND I AM SURE THOUSANDS MORE ARE BEING PREMATURELY ABUSED AND WORN BECAUSE OF GASOLINE (SOLVENT) IN THE OIL.HONDA NEEDS TO MAKE THIS RIGHT AND SOON!
I CAN SMELL GAS INSIDE CABIN WHILE DRIVING AND THIS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING IN CITY. CONCERNED ABOUT HEATH ISSUES IF I DRIVE THIS WITHOUT FIXING THE ISSUE.
AFTER THE SECOND OIL CHANGE AT 5000 MILES, I NOTICED A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN THE OIL. TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID IT WAS "NORMAL". I HAVE BEEN CHANGING OIL MORE FREQUENTLY IN HOPE THAT IT WILL ELIMINATE THIS PROBLEM. NOW MY CRV HAS 11500 MILES ON IT, THE OIL IS ALWAYS OVER FILL DUE TO OIL DILUTION. I GOT SO PISSED THAT HONDA BUILDS SUCH A [XXX] VEHICLE AND CHARGES US AT HIGH PRICE.
ON 10-11-18 I RECEIVED AN EMAIL FROM CONSUMER REPORTS WHICH INCLUDED AN ARTICLE ABOUT ISSUES WITH HONDA'S 1.5 TURBO ENGINES. I HAD RECENTLY BEEN NOTICING ENGINE RESPONSE LAG, ON MY 2017 CRV TOURING, SO I WENT OUT AND CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL. I IMMEDIATELY NOTICED A FUEL SMELL ON THE DIP STICK. THE OIL LEVEL WAS APPROXIMATELY 1 INCH OVER THE TOP MARK. (TILL NOW I HAD NOT NOTICED AN ISSUE WHEN CHECKING OIL LEVEL PERIODICALLY SINCE MY 6-19-2018 OIL CHANGE). I CALLED THE SERVICE DEPT. AT MY HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS SCHEDULED FOR AN APPOINTMENT ON 10/18/2018. THEY SCHEDULED ME FOR AN OIL CHANGE. WHEN I ARRIVED FOR THE APPOINTMENT THE SERVICE REP. SAID HE HAD JUST TALKED TO THEIR HONDA REP. WHO CONFIRMED THE ISSUE AND WAS TOLD THAT A FIX WAS TO BE ROLLED OUT IN NOVEMBER 2018. I HAVE BEEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL PERIODICALLY SINCE THE OCTOBER SERVICE AND IT HAS BEEN CREEPING UP REGULARLY. AS OF 11-16-18 THE OIL LEVEL IS AGAIN ABOVE THE ORANGE PLASTIC PIECE THAT CONTAINS THE HIGH/LOW MARKINGS. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT SHORT AND LONG-TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE AND OVERALL SAFETY. THIS IS OUR 7TH NEW HONDA AND WAS EXPECTING THIS TO BE OUR TRAVEL VEHICLE FOR MANY YEARS.
I DISCOVERED FUEL IN THE OIL OF MY 2017 TURBO HONDA CR V WHEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL. I HAVE APPROXIMATELY 2500 MILES SINCE MY LAST OIL CHANGE. I TOOK THE CAR TO BEAVERTON HONDA ON 11/16/2018 TO CHECK IT OUT. THEY "VERIFIED CUSTOMER'S CONCERNS OF FUEL IN ENGINE OIL." THEY ALSO "ADJUSTED OIL LEVEL" AND THEN REFERRED ME TO A HONDA VIDEO ON YOUTUBE. IT WOULD APPEAR THAT THEY SIMPLY REMOVED GOOD OIL TO MAKE ROOM FOR MORE GAS IN THE OIL. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND DANGEROUS.. APPARENTLY, HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE.
OIL LEVEL WAS NOTICEABLY HIGHER AND HAD A FUEL SMELL TO IT. WE DID TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THERE NO FIX FOR IT AS OF NOW BUT TO CHANGE MY OIL MORE OFTEN.
WE BOUGHT OUR CRV FROM HONDA OF FIFE ON 9 APRIL 2017. SINCE THAT TIME, OUR CAR HAS HAD THREE STALLS. THE FIRST TWO WERE DURING THE MONTH OF MAY, 2017 AS WE WERE TRAVELLING AT SLOW RATES OF SPEED IN BLIZZARD AND HEAVY SNOW CONDITIONS IN MONTANA AND ALBERTA; THE TEMPERATURES WERE MILD, FOR SNOW STORMS, PROBABLY IN THE MID TO HIGH 20S F. IN BOTH OF THESE INSTANCES, THE VISIBILITY WAS ABOUT 100' AND WE WERE ALONE ON THESE ROADS; HOWEVER, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS TO BE PARKED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD IF ANYONE ELSE HAD BEEN COMING OUT OF THE WHITE OF THE STORM; IN BOTH INSTANCES, THE CAR RESTARTED IMMEDIATELY. I'D THOUGHT THE ISSUE MIGHT BE POOR OR FROZEN FUEL SO DIDN'T REPORT THE ISSUE TO HONDA. THE THIRD TIME THE CRV STALLED WAS ON THE I-10 BRIDGE OVER THE MISSISSIPPI AT BATON ROUGE, LA.IN MARCH OF 2018.THE TEMPERATURE WAS IN THE 60S. IN THIS CASE, WE WERE IN VERY SLOW, STOP AND GO TRAFFIC, IN A VERY TIGHT, NARROW LANE DUE TO CONSTRUCTION; THERE WERE NO TURN OUTS OR VERGES. AS WE STARTED THE CLIMB UP THE WEST SIDE OF THE BRIDGE, THE CAR STALLED , THERE WERE NO STOP LIGHTS OR BRAKES APPLIED AS I HAD NO WARNING THE CAR WAS GOING TO QUIT AND THE CAR BEHIND ME, BARELY STOPPED BEFORE REAR ENDING US. IT STARTED AGAIN IMMEDIATELY AND WE DID NOT CREATE A LONG TERM IMPEDIMENT TO THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. AGAIN, I DID NOT REPORT THIS ISSUE AS I THOUGHT IT MIGHT BE POOR FUEL. AMERICAN HONDA HAS CONFIRMED THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH GAS GETTING INTO THE ENGINE OIL TOO; A DEALER NOTED THAT OUR OIL SMELLED OF GAS; WE DO NOT KNOW THE LONG TERM AFFECTS ON THE ENGINE OR ANY HAZARDS THE CONDITION POSES. *JS *TR
WHEN CHECKING THE ENGINE OIL APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO, THE OIL LEVEL EXCEEDED THE "HIGH" MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. THE OIL ALSO HAD A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY CHANGED THE OIL. AFTER DRIVING THE CAR ~2000 MILES AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, THE OIL LEVEL AGAIN EXCEEDS TO HIGH MARK ON THE DIPSTICK AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE.
I HAVE BEEN NOTICING A FUEL SMELL IN THE PASSENGER CABIN. IT SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD FROM THE DEALER TO CHANGE THE OIL AND LET THE CAR WARM UP LONGER. THAT'S THE FIX. COME ON HONDA. THIS IS RIDICULOUS. YOU NHTSA NEED TO MAKE SURE HONDA IS HELD TOTALLY RESPONSIBLE.
SMELL OF GAS IS STRONGLY PRESENT ON THE OIL DIPSTICK. THE READING OF THE DIPSTICK IS ABOVE THE FULL MARK AND IT CONTINUES TO RISE. OIL WAS ALWAYS CHANGED BY DEALER. FOUL SMELL IS SOMETIMES VERY NOTICEABLE ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR. CAR HEAT IN COLD WEATHER IS VERY VERY SLOW BEFORE IT HEATS THE INTERIOR.
1. ENGINE OIL LEVEL AFTER A RECENT OIL CHANGE ( WITH VERY LESS MILEAGE) SHOWS THE OIL LEVEL IS HIGHER THAN THE "HIGHEST" INDICATOR POINT. IT APPEARS TO BE OIL IS GETTING DILUTED BY UNBURNT FUEL. THIS MAY POTENTIALLY HARM THE ENGINE!!.
ADAPTIVE CRUISE WORKS FINE, EXCEPT WHEN IT IS UNABLE TO IDENTIFY A STATIONARY VEHICLE IN FRONT AT A STOP LIGHT. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON ADAPTIVE CRUISE SET AND IT FAILS TO IDENTIFY THE STATIONARY VEHICLE IN FRONT OF IT.
OIL ENGINE DELUTED WITH GAS. MIXED OIL LEVEL RISES 1 INCH EVERY 3000-5000 MILES. WHEN REACHES 22MM ABOVE "MAX" MARK ON THE DIP STICK THEN "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT COMES ON AND ENGINE STALLS. HONDA RECALLED 380000 UNITS IN CHINA FOR THE VERY SAME ISSUE. HERE IN US THEY DO NOTHING EXCEPT RISKING THE LIFE OF THEIR CUSTOMERS. SHAME ! FORUMS AND YOUTUBE ARE FULL WITH THE SAME COMPLAIN EVEN SOME TV NEWS CHANNELS MENTIONED IT. HONDA , PLEASE FIX YOUR PROBLEMATIC ENGINE AND COMPENSATE THE CR-V OWNERS AND/OR BUY BACK YOUR OVERPRICED JUNK.
THE DETENT FOR THE AUTOMATIC SHIFTER JUST POPPED OFF AND I HAD NO WAY TO SHIFT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK OR ANY OTHER GEAR FOR THAT MATTER. I CHECKED GOOGLE AND THERE ARE A LARGE NUMBER OF OTHER PEOPLE DEALING WITH THIS SAME DEFECT.
CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AFTER PUTTING GAS IN (FUELING) HESITATION WHILE DRIVING, VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 15,000 MILES, HAVE TAKEN VEHICLE TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, EXPLAINED WHAT WAS GOING ON, THEY INSIST THE CODES READ O2 SENSOR AND SEAL, STILL NOT FIXED.
OIL READING WAS TOO HIGH PASS THE MAX LEVEL PLUS FUEL SMELL MIXED IN WITH OIL . ( ENGINE OIL DILUTION )
AFTER READING ARTICLES DELINEATING THAT THE 2017 AND 2018 HONDA CRV 1.5L TURBO CHARGED ENGINES WERE RECEIVING COMPLAINTS REGARDING FUEL MIXING WITH THE OIL, I CHECKED THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE DIPSTICK WAS ABOVE THE UPPER MARK BY A QUARTER OF AN INCH AND THE OIL SMELLED LIKE GASOLINE. CHANGED THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE OIL VISCOSITY WAS RUNNY AND THE OLD OIL HAD A STRONG FUEL SMELL. PRIOR TO CHANGING THE OIL, I HAD BEEN NOTICING A FUEL SMELL FROM TIME TO TIME WITHIN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING.
WHILE DRIVING MY 2017 HONDA CR-V EX-L ON HIGHWAY (THE TRIP WAS ABOUT 10 HOURS), ABOUT HALF WAY OF MY TRIP, I COULD NOT REACH THE SPEED TO 55MPH WITH SPEED LIMIT OF 70MPH. MY ODOMETER WAS READING AROUND 30000MI. ABOUT TWO MONTHS LATER (JUST TWO WEEKS AGO) I TOOK ANOTHER 2 HOUR ONE WAY TRIP, SIMILAR THING HAPPENED TO ME AGAIN ON MY WAY BACK (I COULD ONLY DRIVE AT ABOUT 60MPH WITH SPEED LIMIT OF 70MPH). I RAISED THE ISSUE WITH LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT. I WILL SEE WHAT THEY ARE GOING TO TELL ME ABOUT THE DIAGNOSTIC CHECKUP. IN ADDITION TO ABOVE POSSIBLE ENGINE/POWER/FUEL RELATED ISSUES, I HAD TWO INCIDENTS OF DEAD BATTERY WITHOUT DOING ANYTHING AFTER STOPPING MY CAR. ONE TIME (SUMMER 2018) I DROVE TO MY SON'S PRIVATE TEACHER'S HOUSE AND PARKED OUTSIDE. AFTER THE LESSON I COULDN'T START MY CAR. IT TOOK 4 HOURS FOR HONDA ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO COME AND FOUND OUT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD. AFTER THE GENTLEMAN JUMP STARTED MY CAR IT WAS DRIVING FINE. IN SEPTEMBER 2018 I DID MY OIL CHANGE, THE DEALER'S EXAM SHOWED BATTERY LIFE GOOD. THEN JUST ABOUT 4 WEEKS AGO IN OCTOBER 2018, MY CAR PARKED IN MY GARAGE AND IT COULDN'T START AGAIN. THE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE FOUND OUT THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND NO BATTERY LIFE. HONDA DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY FOR ME.
UPON REMOVING THE OIL CAP, THERE IS A VERY STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE. AFTER FURTHER RESEARCH WE FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM THIS MAKE AND MODEL OF VEHICLE MADE BY HONDA. WE WILL BE CONTACTING THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASE 10/2017. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 1,500 MILES. VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE REPORTED STALLS AND LONG TERM EFFECT OF THE ENGINE ITSELF. I AM ALSO CONCERNED WITH POTENTIAL OF THE VEHICLE STALLING AND LOSING BOTH POWER STEERING AND ABS. I WANT THIS ISSUE ON RECORD WITH THE NHTSA.
VEHICLE LOSES POWER UNDER ACCELERATION. OIL DILUTION SEEMS TO BE THE APARENT CAUSE. OIL LEVEL IS WAY ABOVE THE 'MAX' LEVEL IN THE OIL DIPSTICK. STRONG GAS SMELL IN THE CABIN. PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD AMONG OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE (1.5 TURBO ENGINE). HONDA SAYS 'IT'S NORMAL', BUT THEN PROMISES THAT 'PROBLEM IS GOING TO BE FIXED IN NEXT YEAR MODEL'.
I'VE GOT 21000 MILES ON THIS CAR WHICH I BOUGHT BRAND NEW. IT'S BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP AT LEAST FOUR TIMES FOR THE FOLLOWING: ALL WARNING LIGHTS COME ON THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED I COULDN'T RELEASE THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE. I WAS TOLD OIL WAS MIXING WITH GAS AND THAT HONDA HAS A FIX 'COMING SOON' I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY EACH TIME
FUEL SMELL, OIL DILUTION, POTENTIAL UNEXPECTED ENGINE FAILURE
*FUEL ECONOMY IS DOWN *EXCESSIVE OIL LEVEL *SMELL OF FUEL INSIDE THE CAR *STRONG SMELL OF FUEL IN THE ENGINE OIL
I GOT ENGIN LIGHTS ON MY CAR AND WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENED WITH THE CAR. THE DEALER JUST IGNORE THE PROBLEM AND REMOVE THE LIGHTS FROM THE THE DASH. I WENT TO DEALERSHIP 1 SEVERAL TIMES FOR THAT PROBLEM AND EVRY TIME HE DID THE SAME THING. THAT TIME I HAD THE WARRANTY ON MY VEHICLE BUT AS SOO AS I WENT OVER WITH THE WARRANTY, THEY WANT TO FIX IT. THEY GAVE ESTIMATED OF $1200-1500. THEY SAID I HAVE TO CHANGE RADAR SENSOR. THEN I WENT TO THE SECOND DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID COMPLETELY DIFFERENTLY THING (4 CLYENDER NEEDED TO CHANGE). THEN I WENT TO THE THIRD DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID MY CAR FUEL SYSTEM HAS SOME PROBLEMS. THEN I WENT TO THE OUT SIDE SHOP THEY NOTIFIED ME THAT YOUR CAR HAS MANUFACTURE PROBLEM. NOW MY VEHICLE HAS ENGINE LIGHT AND GAS MILEAGE WENT DOWN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE MAKING A TURN, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND RESTARTED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO STOKES HONDA CARS OF BEAUFORT (855-647-4874, LOCATED AT 88 ROBERT SMALLS PKWY, BEAUFORT, SC 29906) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN REPLACED THE OIL AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10,550. *DT*JB
AFTER LEARNING OF THE FUEL IN OIL PROBLEM VIA AN ARTICLE IN CONSUMER REPORTS, I CHECKED MY OIL, WHICH HAD BEEN CHANGED 2,500 PRIOR TO THAT CHECK. THE OIL SMELLED STRONGLY OF GASOLINE, AND THE LEVEL WAS VERY HIGH. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH I'D PURCHASED THE CAR I HAVE TO TAKE THE CAR IN NEXT WEEK TO HAVE THE DEALER CHECK IT OUT HONDA HAS BEEN AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM FOR QUITE SOME TIME BUT FAILED TO NOTIFY OWNERS. IN FACT, BROAD NOTIFICATION HAS YET TO TAKE PLACE. I WANT THIS FIXED. IF HONDA DOESN'T MOVE MORE RAPIDLY, THEY'VE LOST ME AS A CUSTOMER.
MY OIL LEVEL IS ABOVE NORMAL AND SMELLS OF GASOLINE. NO OTHER SYMPTOMS SO FAR.
ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION I'VE COME OUTSIDE TO DISCOVER ALL 4 OF MY 2017 CRV'S WINDOWS AND MOONROOF OPEN. I'VE GOTTEN RAIN DAMAGE BECAUSE MY WINDOWS AND ROOF ENDED UP OPEN DURING A MAJOR RAINSTORM. THE "VENTING' FEATURE OF THE CAR APPARENTLY WAS ACTIVATED WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE. I HAVE SINCE LEARNED (IN DISCOVERING SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ONLINE) THAT THIS IS A KNOWN AND COMMON PROBLEM. IT REPRESENTS A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE REMOTE KEY FOB. MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT THERE IS NO WAY TO DISABLE THIS. THIS OCCURRED BOTH TIMES WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONERY, SOMETIME AFTER EXITING THE VEHICLE.
CABIN SMELLS OF GASOLINE AFTER DRIVING SHORT DISTANCE THEN STOPPED WHILE IDLING (THINK GOING THROUGH A DRIVE THROUGH, LEAVE HOUSE, TRAVEL A FEW MILES, WAIT IN LINE -- THAT IS WHEN IT SMELLS OF GAS). SMELL OF GAS FROM OIL DIPSTICK WHEN CHECKING LEVELS AND OIL LEVEL APPEARS TO BE HIGHER THAN NORMAL (DEALER SERVICES VEHICLE).
BATTERY DRAINS OUT COMPLETELY AND CAR WON'T START.. JUST 18000 MILES. 4 TIMES IN 3 DAYS. FIRST TIME I THOUGHT MAYBE I HAD NOT SWITCHED OFF SOMETHING WHEN I PARKED SO IT MAY HAVE DRAINED. HAD TO CALL AAA. AFTER IT HAPPENED 3 MORE TIMES IN 3 DAYS REALIZED THAT THERE IS SOME MAJOR ISSUE. HONDA HAS A SERVICE BULLETIN 17-032 BUT TO SURE THIS APPLIES. THIS BEING SUNDAY WILL TAKE IT TO DEALERSHIP TOMORROW. TOO MANY COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE ON THE INTERNET.
OIL CRANK CASE IS TOO HIGH DUE TO EXCESS FUEL IN OIL. THIS CAUSES FUEL SMELL IN CABIN AND STALLING OF THE ENGINE. BUT MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE ENGINE WILL SUFFER FROM PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR AND FAILURE DUE TO LACK OF LUBRICATION. THIS IS NOT A COLD WEATHER ISSUE AS MY DILUTION NEED HAPPENED IN THE SUMMER AND I ONLY DO HIGHWAY DRIVING WITH LONG DURATION. HONDA REFUSES TO FIX THE PROBLEM.
I WAS PULLING INTO TRAFFIC IN CLEARFIELD, PA BARELY ESCAPED GETTING HIT BY A DUMP TRUCK WHEN THE CAR PRACTICALLY STOPPED. I GOT TO THE BERM OF THE HIGHWAY, THE CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 4 MPH. I GOT TO A PARKING LOT AND PUT IT IN PARK, TRIED DRIVE AND REVERSE, THE CAR WOULD NOT GO OVER 4 MPH. I SHUT IT OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES, RESTARTED IT AND IT DROVE OK. UPON HEARING OF THE EARTH DREAM ENGINE ISSUE, I HAD OIL CHECKED AT AN AUTO ZONE, OIL LEVEL WAS ABOUT 1/4 INCH UP ON THE ACTUAL METAL ON THE DIPSTICK AND SMELLED STRONGLY OF GAS. CALLED HONDA AMERICA, WAS ACCUSED OF DRIVING WITH ONE FOOT ON THE GAS AND ONE ON THE BRAKE. CALLED THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR, PRESTON HONDA IN NEW CASTLE PA, SERVICE MANAGER DAN SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF GAS BEING IN THE OIL AND MAYBE I DID HAVE "ONE FOOT ON THE GAS AND ONE AND THE BRAKE THINKING I WAS DRIVING A STICK SHIFT". I HAD DRIVEN TO A CONFERENCE LEWISBURG, PA, AFTER FINDING SOMEONE TO FINALLY ADMIT THERE WAS A PROBLEM, AND THE CAR STILL IN WARRANTY,IT WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST HONDA DEALERSHIP IN MUNCY, PA WHERE THE OIL WAS CHANGED AND THE OVERFILL AND GAS IN OIL WAS DOCUMENTED. AFTER 500 MILES THE OIL CHAMBER IS ONCE AGAIN OVERFILL WITH A SMELL OF GAS. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED AGAIN TODAY (905 MILES), WHERE PRESTON HONDA IN NEW CASTLE PA CONTINUES TO DENY ANY KNOWN ISSUES, REFUSES TO DOCUMENT THE OIL CHAMBER BEING OVERFULL AND WILL ONLY DOCUMENT A MILD GAS SMELL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. HOW DO I KNOW WHICH TRIP WILL BE MY LAST WHEN I EITHER GET KILLED OR CAUSE SOMEONE ELSE TO BE KILLED IN A TERRIBLE AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT WHEN THE CAR ONCE AGAIN STALLS IN TRAFFIC. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF ALL OIL CHANGES SINCE THE CAR, I HAVE ATTACHED THOSE WHICH HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF PROBLEM.
2017 HONDA CRV WITH 1.5 L TURBO 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. HEALTH HAZARD: NOTED GASOLINE FUMES IN CABIN AFTER STARTING THE CAR. THE FUMES ARE COMING IN THROUGH THE VENTILATION SYSTEM. HAPPENING IN BOTH COLD AND HOT WEATHER. CAR HAS 30K MILES ON IT. FUMES NOTICED WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY AFTER STARTING IT. ALSO FOUND TO HAVE GAS ENTERING OIL PAN, DILUTING THE OIL, AND CAUSING HIGH OIL LEVELS. SIMILAR REPORTS FROM MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS ENGINE AND APPARENTLY A MAJOR RECALL IN CHINA FOR THE PROBLEM. AM CONCERNED ABOUT HYDROCARBON LEVELS IN THE PASSENGER CABIN WHICH CAN BE A MAJOR HEALTH HAZARD. JUST BECAUSE THE FUMES DISSIPATE AFTER A MINUTE OR SO DOES NOT NECESSARILY MEAN THAT THE HYDROCARBON LEVELS IN THE CABIN ARE NORMAL FOR THE REST OF THE RIDE. OTHER MAJOR CONCERN IS PREMATURE WEAR ON THE ENGINE DUE TO GAS MIXING WITH OIL. ANOTHER CONCERN IS REPORTS OF CRVS WITH THIS PROBLEM STALLING AT HIGH SPEEDS AND FAILING TO ACCELERATE PROPERLY. HONDA USA HAS NOT ADDRESSED THE PROBLEM AS OF THIS DATE NOR HAVE THEY OFFERED ANY SOLUTIONS. I FEEL LIKE I WASTED OVER $30K ON A VEHICLE THAT IS NOW UNSAFE AND DESTINED TO PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE. I THINK THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM.
A SITUATION IN WHICH THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS SHOW MULTIPLE SYSTEM FAILURES INCLUDING FAILURES OF THE RDM, CRUISE CONTROL, BRAKES AND CMBS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE, INCLUDING A SECOND TIME IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE DEALER "FIXED" THE PROBLEM. THE CAR HAS BEED STOPPED BUT IDLING IN BOTH SITUATION. I DROVE IMMEDIATELY TO THE DEALERSHIP THE FIRST TIME AND DID NOT EVEN LEAVE THE DEALERSHIP THE SECOND TIME. AN INDICATION OF A "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE" IS DISCONCERTING EVEN THOUGH THERE SEEMS TO BE NO AFFECT ON VEHICLE PERFORMANCE, OTHER THAN THESE SAFETY FEATURES BEING RENDERED INOPERABLE.
ENGINE OIL OVERFILLED. CAR HAS STALLED ON OCCASION. VEHICLE SAFETY FEATURES (HONDA SENSING) FAILED COMPLETELY WHILE DRIVING IN BAD WEATHER...SNOW AND RAIN.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT NOTICED AN ABNORMAL FUEL ODOR INSIDE THE VEHICLE DURING SHORT ROAD TRIPS. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. ADDITIONALLY, THE TAIL PIPE WAS RUSTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO RUSSELL & SMITH HONDA (2900 S LOOP W, HOUSTON, TX 77054, (713) 481-3063) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT FUEL WAS IN THE OIL AND THE RUST WAS NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS MIXING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE BY LOCAL MEDIA THAT THE HONDA VEHICLES WAS HAVING FUEL MIXING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THEREFORE, THE CONTACT CHECKED THE ENGINE DIPSTICK AND NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE DIPSTICK EMITTED A STRONG FUEL ODOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER. THE DEALER REPLACED THE ENGINE OIL TWICE. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED THE CONTACT CHECKED THE ENGINE DIPSTICK AND FOUND THAT THE DIPSTICK WAS STILL EMITTING A STRONG FUEL ODOR. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBER: 09036858 AND ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT HE WOULD RECEIVE A NOTICE WHEN THEY HAD A REMEDY FOR THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ATTEMPTING TO PARK IN THE GARAGE, THE GEAR SHIFTER HANDLE FRACTURED. THE CONTACT HAD TO FORCE THE SHIFTER INTO THE PARK POSITION. THE FOLLOWING DAY THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER LUCAS HONDA OF JACKSONVILLE (7801 BRANDING BLVD, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32244) WHERE THEY DETERMINED THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND REPLACED THE HANDLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000.
HIGH OIL LEVEL DUE TO GAS IN THE OIL. HAVE ALREADY HAD 2 OIL CHANGES AND ONLY HAVE JUST OVER 4,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. HONDA STATES THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE IN COLD WEATHER, BUT IT STILL HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING IN THE SUMMER.
IN MID-OCTOBER 2018, THE OIL LEVEL ON OUR 2017 CR-V WAS A HALF INCH PAST THE MAX MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. OIL WAS LAST CHANGED JUST 3400 MILES AGO IN MID-MAY. I SUSPECT THIS IS DUE TO THE WIDELY REPORTED PROBLEM OF FUEL DILUTING THE OIL. THE HONDA DEALER WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED REFUSES TO ADMIT THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM.
OIL HAS STRONG SMELL OF GAS, AND OIL LEVEL CONSISTENTLY RISES OVER TIME UNTIL OIL CHANGE COMPLETED. AROUND 500 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE THE GAS SMELL RETURNS AND CONTINUES TO GET STRONGER WHILE ALSO INCREASING THE OIL LEVEL WELL ABOVE THE LOW AND HIGH ON THE DIPSTICK. HAS HAPPENED FOR OVER A YEAR SINCE I FIRST DISCOVERED MANY OTHER 2017/2018 CRV OWNERS DISCUSSING THE PROBLEM ONLINE.
ONCE WHILE MOVING THE CAR TO WASH IT, STARTED IT DIS-ENGAGED THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE, SHIFTED INTO REVERSE AND THE CAR SHUT OFF. THE ENGINE WAS COLD. THE SECOND TIME STARTED THE CAR AND TOOK A TWENTY MINUTE,10 MILE TRIP TO COSTCO. 30 MINUTES LATER STARTED THE CR-V, AGAIN DIS-ENGAGED THE ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE, SHIFTED INTO REVERSE AND THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF, THE CAR WAS WARM. TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA AND THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG, BUT CHANGED THE ENGINE OIL WITH ONLY 2381 MILES ON THE ODOMETER.
AT THIS TIME I HAVE NOTICED A GAS SMELL IN THE OIL AND THE OIL LEVEL HAS BEEN HIGH EVEN AFTER 5000 MILES. THIS WAS CONFIRMED BY THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I WAS THERE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. NOW THAT IT IS GETTING COOLER I AM ALSO NOTICING THAT THE HEATER IS NOT WORKING WELL AND I HAVE TO HAVE THE DEFROSTER ON ALL THE TIME OR THE WINDOW FOG.
OIL-DILUTION PROBLEM ,OIL LEVEL ON DIP STICK IS WAY ABOVE HIGH MARK ON DIP STICK AND SMELL FUEL ON DIP STICK
I PURCHASED MY CAR FROM BROWN'S HONDA 712 CRAIN HIGHWAY, GLEN BURNIE, MD 21061 ON JUNE 20,2017. ON OCTOBER 6, 2018 IBECAME AWARE OF A VERY SERIOUS PROBLEM WITH MY CAR THAT HAS THE NEW 1.5 L TURBOCHARGED ENGINE. I NOTICED THAT THE OIL LEVEL, AS SHOWN ON THE DIP STICK, WAS AT LEAST 0.5 INCHES ABOVE THE TOP FILL MARK. I IMMEDIATELY DRAINED THE OIL AND DISCOVERED THAT THE VOLUME OF OIL WAS 4.75 QUARTS OR 28% ABOVE THE CAR'S SPECIFICATION OF 3.7 QUARTS. THE DRAINED OIL WAS VERY BLACK IN COLOR AND TO THE TOUCH FELT LESS VISCOUS THAN NEW 0-20 OIL. IT APPEARS THAT THE INCREASED VOLUME IS DUE TO GASOLINE MIXING WITH THE OIL. ON OCT 6,2018 (CURRENT ODOMETER READING11467 MILES) THE OIL HAD RUN IN THE ENGINE FOR ABOUT 5400 MILES. MY FIRST OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALER WAS AT 6000 MILES ON 4/16/2018. AS YOU ARE AWARE, DILUTIONOF THE OIL WITH GASOLINE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM THAT WILL INEVITABLY LEAD TO PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE AND OPERABILITY/SAFETY PROBLEMS IN THE FUTURE SUCH AS STALLING. I VISITED THE BROWN'S HONDA DEALERSHIP TODAY 10/8/2018 AND EXPLAINED THE ISSUE STATED ABOVE. THE SERVICE DIRECTOR, ADVISED ME TO KEEP CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL AND COME BACK IF ANY RUNNING ISSUES OCCUR. THE DEALER ISUNABLE TO CORRECT THE ISSUE OF GASOLINE LEAKING INTO THE OIL.THIS PROBLEM SUBSTANTIALLY IMPAIRS THE FUTURE VALUE OF MY CAR AND POTENTIALLY IT'S SAFETY. GASOLINE IN THE ENGINE OIL WILL LEAD TO PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE.
FUEL IS MIXING WITH THE ENGINE OIL IN THE CRANKCASE, MAKING OIL VISCOSITY THINNER AND SMELL OF GASOLINE. THE PROBLEM WAS ACKNOWLEDGED AND VERIFIED BY OUR HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON OCTOBER 24, 2018. THEY SAID PROBLEM IS EXACERBATED BY COLD WEATHER AND SHORT TRIPS. WE WERE TOLD A FIX FOR THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN IDENTIFIED AND WE WILL BE NOTIFIED BY LETTER PRIOR TO NOVEMBER 22, 2018 TO SCHEDULE A TIME FOR REPAIRS. IF WE DO NOT RECEIVE NOTIFICATION, CALL THE DEALERSHIP BACK AT THAT TIME.
1.5L TURBO ENGINE. OIL IS DILUTED WITH GASOLINE, RAISING OIL LEVEL, REDUCING FRICTION AND INCREASING ENGINE WEAR. IN WORST CASE THE OIL LEVEL CAUSES CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND ENGINE STALLING, CAUSING SAFETY ISSUE. OIL SMELLS STRONGLY OF GAS, INSIDE CABIN HAS STRON GAS SMELL AT TIMES. ENGINE DOES NOT HEAT ENOUGH TO WARM THE CAR IN COLD WEATHER.
THE CAR HAS A SERIOUS ENGINE ISSUE ASSOCIATED TO THE 1.5 L TURBO ENGINE. THE ENGINE IS UNABLE TO WARM UP UP PROPERLY IN COLD WEATHER STATES AND THEREFORE IS UNABLE TO OUTPUT AN ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF HEAT THAT IS REQUIRED TO KEEP THE CABIN WARM FOR THE OWNER. THE ENGINE IS ALSO DILUTING GASOLINE INTO THE OIL RESERVOIR LEADING TO A GASOLINE SMELL WHEN CHECKING OIL LEVELS. THIS OIL DILUTION IS GOING TO CAUSE EXTENSIVE WEAR WITHIN THE OIL RESERVOIR SINCE IT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO BE THERE UNDER PROPER AND NORMAL CONDITIONS. THERE HAVE BEEN COLD MORNING ON WHICH I HAVE ACCELERATED AND FELT THE VEHICLE STALL AND I FEEL THE OIL/GAS MIXTURE IS TO BLAME FOR THIS DANGEROUS AND LIFE THREATENING DEFECT OF THIS ENGINE. I'M AFRAID TO ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC CONDITIONS THAT MAY CAUSE ME TO GET REAR ENDED AND INJURED/KILLED DUE TO STALLING THE VEHICLE WHILE IN MOTION ON A CITY STREET OR HIGHWAY. HONDA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2017 CRV AND NEWER SINCE THE MANUFACTURER STATES IT IS NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS TO HAVE OIL AND GASOLINE MIXING. I WOULD LIKE TO HAVE A BUYBACK OF THIS VEHICLE AND BE DONE WITH THIS BRAND FOR THE FAILURE TO CORRECT THIS AND POOR JUDGEMENT TO CONTINUE TO SELLING THIS VEHICLE.
OIL DILUTION. STRONG GAS SMELL IN THE CABIN AND COMING FROM THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IN COLD MORNING START. OIL LEVEL IS HIGHER AND ABOVE THE MAX LINE ON THE DIP STICK.
STRONG ODOR OF FUEL OR OIL WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED ON FREEWAY. THIS HAPPENED TWICE AND LASTED ABOUT 5 MINUTES EACH TIME, THE MILEAGE AT THE TIME WAS BETWEEN 5,000 AND 8 THOUSAND. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 18,000 AND HAS NOT HAD A RECURRENCE SINCE BUT AT 12,000 MILES [ 4,000 MILES AFTER THE FIRST OIL CHANGE ] I NOTICED THE OIL LEVEL ON THE DIP STICK WAS ABOUT A HALF AN INCH OVER THE FULL LIMIT. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DID NOT HAVE A FIX AT THE TIME. THEY CHANGED THE OIL AT THAT TIME AND AGAIN AT ABOUT 17,000 MILES AT WHICH TIME THEY SAID THEY HAD A PARTIAL FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. IT NOW HAS 19,000 AND STILL HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. I WOULD THINK SOONER OR LATER IT'S GOING TO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE ENGINE THAT COULD CAUSE SAFETY CONCERNS.
DEAR: NHTSA I PURCHASE A 2017 HONDA CRV-EX WITH 1.5-LITER TURBO EARTH DREAM ENGINE. DURING THE PAST 6 MONTHS I'VE BEEN HAVING THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS WITH MY HONDA CRV-EX. GAS SMELL IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, THE OIL SMELL LIKE GAS, RISING OIL LEVELS, CAR MAKING HORRIBLE NOISES, STALLING, LOSS OF POWER AND THE HEATERS DOESN'T WORK AT ALL IN COLD WEATHER. I FIRST NOTICE THESE PROBLEMS 6 MONTHS AGO. A FRIEND OF MINE WHO PREVIOUSLY WORKED AT HONDA SAYS THAT THE PROBLEM OF FUEL MIXING WITH OIL STEMS FROM ONE OR TWO CAUSES: IMPROPERLY DESIGNED FUEL INJECTORS THAT SPRAY FUEL DIRECTLY ONTO THE CYLINDER WALLS OR THE ENGINE NOT HEATING UP ENOUGH TO VAPORIZE GASOLINE LEFT OVER IN AN ENGINE CYLINDER. EITHER COULD CAUSE FUEL TO MIX WITH THE OIL, DILUTING IT AND MAKING IT LESS EFFECTIVE AT PROTECTING AN ENGINE'S MOVING PARTS AND OVER TIME COULD SERIOUSLY DAMAGE THE ENGINE. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO THE LUBRICATION FUEL & OIL DILUTION. HONDA CORPORATION HAD KNOWLEDGE OF THE TURBO ENGINE DEFECTS THAT CAUSE FUEL TO ENTER THE ENGINE OIL, DAMAGING THE BEARINGS, ENGINE PERMANENTLY AND DID ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS ETHICAL AT ALL FOR HONDA CORP. TO CONTINUE TO SELL 2017 & 2018 CRV WITH TURBO ENGINE TO THE CONSUMER KNOWING THE PROBLEMS COULD ENDANGER THE PUBLIC SAFETY. IT IS NEITHER SAFE NOR PRUDENT DRIVING THESE VEHICLES. MY TRUST IN HONDA RELIABILITY WAS CRUSHED WHEN I NOTICE AFTER MY 2ND OIL CHANGE THE COLOR WAS BLACK, THIN AS WATER AND SMELL LIKE GASOLINE AFTER ONLY 10,000 MILES. HONDA CORP. HAD TO RECALL 130,000 OF ITS POPULAR CR-V SUV MODELS AND 294,500 CIVIC CARS FROM CHINA EARLIER THIS YEAR. RECENTLY IT'S BEEN REPORTED HONDA STOPPED ALL SALES OF CRV'S IN CHINA. HONDA ACKNOWLEDGES THE PROBLEM BUT HAS NOT RELEASED ANY RESOLUTION ASIDE FROM FREE OIL CHANGES. MY ENGINE HAS ALREADY INCURRED PREMATURE WEAR. *JS
ENGINE OIL DILUTED, SMELLING OF FUEL, DIRTY, AND INCREASING IN VOLUME. OIL WAS CHANGED (2ND OIL CHANGE) AND AT PROPER LEVEL 8/25/2018 AT 15,413 MILES. TODAY, AT 10/29/2018 AND 17,510 MILES, OIL LEVEL IS ABOUT 10 MM ABOVE MAX FILL MARK. BAD SMELL SOMETIMES IN CABIN.
THIS COMPLAINT IS RELATED TO MY VEHICLE DILUTING THE OIL WITH UNBURNT GASOLINE AND CREATING FUEL ODORS IN THE CABIN AS WELL AS PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR.. MY VEHICLE NOW HAS ~ 15000 MILES AND HAS JUST COMPLETED ITS 3RD OIL CHANGE. EACH OIL CHANGE HAS RECORDED ON THE SERVICE ORDER THE DRAINED OIL AMOUNT AND EACH TIME THE FLUID LEVEL WAS LARGER THEN WHAT WAS FILLED AT THE PRIOR OIL CHANGE. THE LAST CHANGE THE DEALERSHIP RECORDED 17 OZ MORE FLUID THEN WHAT WENT IN, THIS WAS ALL GASOLINE. THIS IS RESULTING IN GASOLINE ODORS IN THE CABIN WHICH ARE CREATING AN UNSAFE ENVIRONMENT FOR MY PASSENGERS AND MYSELF. IT SEEMS HIGHLY LIKELY THAT ACCUMILATING GASOLJNE VAPORS IN THE INTERIOR OF THE VEHICLE POSE BOTH A HEALTH HAZARD AND A POSSIBLE FIRE OR EXPLOSION RISK . HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THERE IS A OIL DILUTION PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES BUT REJECTS THE NOTION THAT THE BYPRODUCTS OF THIS DESIGN FLAW, NAMELY THE ACCUMULATING GAS VAPORS POSE ANY SAFETY RISK AT ALL. SINCE HONDA HAS NOT REMEDIED THIS FLAW I AM ASKING THAT THIS TRANSPORTATION ORGANIZATION INVESTIGATE THESE CLAIMS FOR VALIDITY AND INSTRUCT THEM TO CORRECT THIS HEALTH, AND SAFETY RISK AS WELL AS THE PREMATURE OR ACCELERATED WEAR OF MY ENGINE DUE TO THIS ACKNOWLEDGED FLAW.
THERE IS FUEL GETTING ADDED INTO THE ENGINE OIL. SMELL OF FUEL INSIDE CAR AT TIMES. OIL WAS CHANGED BY DEALER 3000 MILES BEFORE AND NOW THE OIL LEVEL IS A LOT HIGHER THAN MAXIMUM AND THERE IS A CLEAR SMELL OF FUEL TO THE ENGINE OIL. THE ENGINE OIL VISCOSITY IS CONSIDERABLY DOWN. I AM SURE THIS IS KILLING LUBRICATION TO MY ENGINE. REACHED OUT TO DEALER, ONLY THING THEY CAN DO IS ANOTHER OIL CHANGE. THIS PROBLEM NEED TO BE ADDRESSED PRETTY FAST OR ENGINE WILL START SEIZING UP SOON. I EMAILED HONDA FOR A RESPONSE AND THEY ARE REFERRING ME BACK TO THE DEALER. CHINA HAS STOPPED HONDA FROM SELLING CR-V IN THEIR MARKET IN LIGHT OF THIS PROBLEM. I AM AMAZED I AM NOT SEEING A RESPONSE FROM US AUTHORITIES ON THIS IMPORTANT CONSUMER ISSUE.
OIL DILUTION: I HAD AN OIL ANALYSIS DONE ON MY 2017 HONDA CRV AND IT CAME BACK SHOWING 14% GAS IN THE OIL.
VEHICLE HAS 1.5 L TURBO ENGINE AND GAS IS DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL. LEVEL HAS RISEN 10 MM ABOVE THE LAST OIL CHANGE LEVEL DONE 4/19/18, AFTER 5070 MILES. SOME OWNERS HAVE REPORTED THIS TO NHTSA AS A VEHICLE STALLING PROBLEM, WHICH I BELIEVE IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS HAS NOT HAPPEN TO US, BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT IT COULD. I REPORTED IT TO MY LOCAL HONDA SERVICE AT GANLEY HONDA OF N. OLMSTED, OH. THEY SEEMED TO BE UNAWARE OF THIS POTENTIAL PROBLEM, EVEN THOUGH CONSUMERS REPORTS DID AN EXTENSIVE ARTICLE ON THE 1.5 L OIL DILUTION PROBLEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED AT APPLE HONDA (2219, 1212 LOUCKS RD, YORK, PA 17404. 717-848-2600), HE CHECKED HIS OIL AND IT WAS A DARK COLOR AND IT SMELT LIKE FUEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHO DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT IT WAS NORMAL AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT NO REMEDY WAS AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 17,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
VEHICLE WAS PARKED OVER NIGHT IN THE MORNING THE BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DRAINED I LEFT NO LIGHTS ON THERE WAS NO REASON FOR A DRAINED BATTERY ON A NEW CAR. AFTER JUMP STARTING THE CAR IT HAS NOW ISSUES LIKE A HARD START AS IF THE BATTERY IS DEAD MY INTERIOR LIGHTS DIMWHEN AT STOP LIGHT THE LOSS MITIGATION WARMING COMES ON BUT ALL MY EXTRAS EXTRA FOR THE STEERING HELP ARE OFF OT FEELS AS IF IT'S GOING TO DIE AT A LIGHT AND MY MPG WENT FROM 25.9 TO NOW 19.8 THAT'S INSANE!! I AM TAKING TO HONDA DEALER TOMORROW THIS IS A YEAR OLD HONDA
WHILE DRIVING DOWN A COUNTRY ROAD AT 55 MPH WITH OPEN FIELDS ON EACH SIDE. THE BRAKE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, THE AUDIBLE WARNING SIGNAL SOUNDED AND THE BAKES SLAMMED ON HARD. THEN WENT OFF. THERE WAS NOTHING ON THE ROAD IN FRONT OF US. THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM FAILED. SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED.
FUEL IS MIXING WITH THE ENGINE OIL IN THE CRANKCASE. THE PROBLEM WAS VERIFIED BY THE SERVICE DEOARTMENT OF THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP, AND THE OIL WAS CHANGED.
GEAR SHIFT BUTTON BROKE MAKING IT DIFFICULT OR IMPOSSIBLE TO PUT CAR IN THE "P" PARKING GEAR. THE SHIFT BUTTON EVENTUALLY CAME ALL THE WAY OUT. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN TRYING TO CHANGE GEARS INTO "PARK". FINALLY GOT IT INTO PARK WITH SOME DIFFICULTY. WIFE NOT HAPPY AND WORRIED ABOUT SAFETY IF SHE CAN'T PUT THE CAR INTO PARK.
THE PUSH BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT HAS DISINTEGRATED. UNABLE TO RETURN THE VEHICLE INTO THE PARK POSITION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS IMPROPERLY LEAKING INTO THE OIL OF THE CRANK CASE. THE DEALER (BOB BRADY HONDA, 3955 E BOYD RD, DECATUR, IL 62521, (217) 876-3800) WAS PERFORMING THE ROUTINE OIL CHANGES, BUT COULD NOT REMEDY THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT THERE WERE NO ENGINE RECALLS. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000. *TT UPDATED 12/19/18*JB
2.0 LITER TURBO CHARGED ENGINE FUEL DRAWING INTO OIL INCREASING OIL LEVEL TO ABOVE MAXIMUM OIL LEVEL READING. MAY CAUSE DRIVE ABILITY PROBLEMS ACCORDING TO HONDA DEALER
ALARM WILL GO OFF RANDOMLY. CLICKING LOCK/UNLOCK ON THE KEY FOB DOES NOT TURN THE ALARM OFF. INSERTING THE KEY INTO THE DOOR WAS THE ONLY WAY TO TURN THE ALARM OFF. THE MESSAGE "KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM" WAS DISPLAYED ON THE DASH WHEN I ENTERED THE CAR. I TURNED MY CAR ON, BUT WHEN TRYING TO TURN THE CAR OFF, THERE WERE CLICKING NOISES, THE DASH FLICKERED REPEATEDLY, AND THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF. IT TOOK ABOUT 15 MINUTES OF CLICKING THE PUSH START/STOP BUTTON TO GET THE CAR TO TURN OFF. IT WAS TOWED TO HONDA (TOW TRUCK DRIVER HAD TROUBLE GETTING THE CAR ONTO THE BED BECAUSE ALL OF THE SAFETY BRAKING FEATURES WERE RANDOMLY ACTIVATING) AND HONDA REPLACED SOME WIRING AND SAID I WAS GOOD TO. TWO DAYS LATER THE CAR WOULDN'T START. HAD IT TOWED TO HONDA AGAIN AND THEY SAID IT WAS A BAD BATTERY. THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THE NEXT DAY THE ALARM WENT OFF AGAIN, SAME ISSUE WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO TURN IT OFF, AND THE SAME KEYLESS START SYSTEM PROBLEM WAS ON THE DASH. I STARTED THE CAR, THEN TURNED THE CAR OFF, WENT INTO THE HOUSE, AND THE ALARM WENT OFF AGAIN 15 MINUTES LATER. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY AND WILL TAKE IT BACK TO HONDA TOMORROW. NOTE, WHEN I POPPED THE HOOD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY, THE ELECTRICITY TURNED BACK ON IN THE CAR BY ITSELF. I NOW SUSPECT THE ELECTRICITY IS TURNING ON BY ITSELF AND AFTER SITTING IDLE FOR A WHILE THE ALARM ACTIVATES.
GASOLINE IS LEAKING INTO THE OIL CAUSING OIL SMELL IN CAR AND MAKING THE OIL THIN AND OVER THE FILL LINE ON DIP STICK.
PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN, VEHICLE BATTERY DRAINS AFTER 2 DAYS OF NON USE
ON MARCH 1ST 2018 THE ENGINE STALLED TWICE *(WITH ENGINE LIGHT COMING ON) IN A HEAVILY CONGESTED PART OF OUR CITY. . STRONG SMELL OF FUEL INSIDE AND OUTSIDE THE PASSENGER CABIN. WAS DRIVING TO VISIT FRIENDS FOR LUNCH ON OPPOSITE END (SOUTH) WHERE I WORK. THE FIRST STALL OCCURRED ON A SERVICE ROAD LEADING TO RESTAURANT. THE 2ND STALL OCCURRED DRIVING BACK FROM RESTAURANT TO WORK..
ENGINE HAS EXCESSIVE OIL LEVEL AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF GAS. DRIVEN PRIMARILY ON THE INTERSTATE ROADS.
I WAS DRIVING NORTH ON HWY 86 FROM THE CITY OF IMPERIAL CA. WHEN I SET MY CRUISE CONTROL AT 65 MPH SUDDENLY START GOING UP AND DOWN WITH THE SPEED ( GOING UP TO 67 AND DOWN TO 64) WITH NO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. I ARRIVE TO MY HOUSE AND AFTER HEARING PROBLEMS WITH THE STALLING ON THE CR-V MODELS , MY HUSBAND CHECK THE OIL AND IT SMELL A LOT TO GASOLINE.
GASOLINE IN ENGINE OIL. MY CRV HAS AN OIL LEVEL OVER THE FULL MARK ON THE DIP STICK AND THE OIL SMELLS OF GASOLINE. THIS CAR OFTEN HAS TO BE GIVEN 40-50% THROTTLE TO BACK OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY. I HAVE INCLUDED A PICTURE OF THE OIL LEVEL ABOVE THE FULL MARK. THE SMELL YOU CANT PHOTOGRAPH.
BUTTON PLUS SPRING POPPED OUT OF THE SHIFTER WHILE IN MOTION.
SOMETIMES, I AM ABLE TO SMELL ODOR OF GASOLINE DURING DRIVING IN THE CABIN FROM LAST WINTER SEASON. IT IS GETTING WORSE DURING THESE DAYS. I FOUND 2017-2018 CR-V ENGINE HAS PROBLEM WHICH ENGINE OIL MIXES WITH GASOLINE. I CHECKED OIL LEVEL AND IT IS REALLY INCREASED AND I COULD SMELL GASOLINE WITH ENGINE OIL. HOW CAN I SOLVE THIS PROBLEM? I AM NOT ABLE TO FIND RECALL INFORMATION. I THINK IT IS QUITE SEVERE AND AFFECT TO DRIVING AND CAR MAINTENANCE.
OIL FROM DIPSTICK SMELLS STRONGLY OF GAS. LEVEL SEEM HIGHER THAN IT SHOULD.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, ALL OF THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BILLY WOOD HONDA (1909 W HILLSBORO ST, EL DORADO, AR 71730, (870) 863-5400) WHERE THE COMPUTER WAS UPDATED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE SAME DEALER WHERE THE CONTACT WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE MANUFACTURER UPDATED THE COMPUTER AGAIN. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED FOR A THIRD TIME, BUT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. ALSO, WHILE INSPECTING THE OIL, THE CONTACT NOTICED IT WAS OVERFILLED AND SMELLED LIKE FUEL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,300. *JS
AT 6,000 MILES ENGINE IS EXPERIENCING OIL DILUTION. OIL IS ABOVE MAX LEVEL ON DIPSTICK AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF GAS, VEHICLE WAS COLD AND STATIONARY WHEN OIL LEVEL WAS CHECKED. CALLED A NEARBY HONDA SERVICE CENTER AND THEY ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE SHOULD BE BROUGHT IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE VEHICLE WAS JUST IN FOR SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE (INCLUDING AN OIL CHANGE) 1,000 MILES AGO. AN AUTOMOBILE SHOULD NOT REQUIRE AN OIL CHANGE AFTER 1,000 MILES OF USE.
AT 15,000 MILES, I HAVE FOUND THAT GASOLINE IS CONTAMINATING THE CRANKCASE OIL EVEN THOUGH I DO NOT LIVE IN A COLD CLIMATE OR DRIVE VERY SHORT DISTANCES. MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER HAS CONFIRMED THIS PROBLEM BUT HAS NO FIX AND HAS RECEIVED NO GUIDANCE FROM HONDA.
THE 1.5 L TURBO ENGINE DEVELOPS HIGH OIL LEVEL READINGS DUE TO FUEL CONTAMINATION. I HAD SEVERAL (12) SYSTEM FAILURE NOTICES APPEAR SIMULTANEOUSLY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND THEY STATED THAT THEY "FOUND THAT OIL LEVEL WAS OVER FULL AND SMELLED LIKE FUEL". ALSO NOTICED THAT IN COLD WEATHER, WHILE DRIVING, THE FRONT DEFROSTER IS NOT WARM ENOUGH AND CAN'T KEEP WINDSHIELD CLEAR RESULTING IN POOR OR NO VISIBILITY. THIS VEHICLE TAKES A VERY LONG TIME TO WARM UP. DOES NOT WARM UP AT IDLE. TAKES A VERY LONG TIME TO WARM UP WHILE IN MOTION. THE ONLY WAY I'VE FOUND TO GET THE ENGINE UP TO A PROPER TEMPERATURE IS TO TURN OFF ECON MODE, DRIVE IN SPORT MODE AND DO NOT TURN HEATER ON.
1.EXCESSIVE WHITE EXHAUST FUMES WHILE DRIVING (10/15/18) 2.WHEN RUNNING IT SMELLS LIKE SULFUR & FUEL (10/16/18 & 10/17/18). 3.ALSO, SMELLED FUEL INSIDE THE CAR 4.HEADACHE AND NAUSEATED DUE TO FUEL SMELL IN THE CABIN 5.TOOK TO DEALER SHIP (10/18/18), THEY SAID THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR. OK TO DRIVE 6.ON THE WAY HOME FROM DEALERSHIP, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND ENGINE STALLED. DID NOT HAVE POWER. 7.STOPPED THE CAR, WAITED FOR 10 MINUTES, RESTARTED THE CAR, ENGINE LIGHT WENT WAY. 8.CAR STALLED FEW TIMES AFTER THAT WHILE DRIVING 9.I DID NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM UNTIL OIL CHANGE AT HONDA DEALERSHIP ON 10/13/18 10.CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL. OIL LEVEL WAS MUCH HIGHER THAN RECOMMENDED. SMELLED FUEL IN THE OIL. DEALER'S RESPONSE (10/19/18) 1.DEALER TALKED TO HONDA ' THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM FUEL GETTING INTO OIL AND COMING UP WITH A FIX MID-NOVEMBER. THIS PROBLEM WILL NOT AFFECT THE ENGINE OR CATALYTIC CONVERTER. 2.THEY DID NOT FIND ANY CODE IN THE COMPUTER 3.ENGINE STALLS WHEN THERE IS TOO MUCH OIL RESULTING FROM FUEL GETTING INTO OIL 4.DID NOT GIVE OIL SAMPLE AS REQUESTED 5 CHANGED THE OIL AND UPDATED THE SOFTWARE HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE RESPONSE: FILED A COMPLAINT. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WORKING ON A FIX. AS PER HONDA, IT WILL NOT AFFECT LONG TERM LIFE OF ENGINE, TRANSMISSION OR CATALYTIC CONVERTER.
THE PLASTIC DETENT BUTTON ON THE TRANSMISSION GEAR SELECTOR BROKE. IT IS SPRING LOADED AND WHEN IT BROKE THE BUTTON SHOT OUT ONTO THE FLOOR BENEATH THE DRIVERS SEAT. WHILE IT IS POSSIBLE TO SHIFT THE CAR INTO NEUTRAL (FROM DRIVE) IN THIS CONDITION, YOU CANNOT SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION INTO REVERSE OR PARK MAKING THIS A POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I WAS TOLD BY MY DEALER THAT THIS WAS THE NUMBER ONE PROBLEM WITH THE 2017 CRV. THE PART WAS REPLACED FOR FREE BUT I AM CONCERNED THAT IT WILL BREAK AGAIN. WHEN THIS OCCURRED THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AS I CHANGED FROM PARK TO DRIVE.
AFTER I PULLED INTO MY GARAGE, STOPPED THE VEHICLE, AND PUT IT INTO PARK, I RELEASED THE SHIFTER INTERLOCK BUTTON AND IT POPPED OUT AND LANDED ON THE FLOOR. FOR THE PAST FEW WEEKS I THOUGHT THE BUTTON HAD MORE PLAY IN IT WHEN, BUT FIGURED THAT I WAS IMAGINING IT BECAUSE WHAT COULD GO WRONG WITH A BUTTON ON A VEHICLE WITH ONLY 7500 MILES ON IT. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER THIS MORNING AND THEY ORDERED REPLACEMENT PARTS AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR. I'M KIND OF SURPRISED THAT THEY DIDN'T GIVE ME A LOANER AND TELL ME TO STOP DRIVING IT SINCE NOT BEING TO SHIFT A VEHICLE INTO PARK (IF THE BUTTON WERE TO FALL OUT WHILE DRIVING) SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE.
EXCESSIVE FLUID IN OIL PAN AND STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE WHEN HAVING MY OIL CHANGED. OIL CHANGE WAS DONE AT VALVOLINE SERVICE CENTER
OUR CRV IS ONE THAT HAS THE PROBLEM OF GAS GETTING INTO THE OIL. WE HAVE THREE EVIDENCES OF THIS: 1) THE OIL LEVEL IS MUCH TOO HIGH; 2) THE OIL SMELLS LIKE GAS; 3) THE ENGINE FROM TIME TO TIME HAS NOT RUN OR IDLED PROPERLY, ALTHOUGH WE HAVE NOT EXPERIENCED ANY STALLING. YESTERDAY I TOOK THE CAR IN TO OUR DEALER AND REQUESTED AN OIL CHANGE UNDER WARRANTY AS WE VIEW THIS AS A DEFECT, AND HONDA REFUSED TO COVER THE COST OF THIS. THE DEALER GRACIOUSLY AGREED TO A ONE-TIME FREE OIL CHANGE AS A COURTESY, BUT I FEEL HONDA SHOULD HAVE COVERED THIS. NO MATTER WHAT THEIR EXPERTS SAY, GASOLINE IN THE OIL CANNOT BE GOOD FOR THE ENGINE! WE ARE TOLD THAT A FIX IS IN THE WORKS, BUT HONDA SHOULD HAVE NOTIFIED US OF THE PROBLEM!
MY CAR HAS ABOUT 8800 MILES. HAD THE ENGINE OIL FIRST CHANGED AT 6100 MILES. SINCE THEN, THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL KEEPS RISING DURING NORMAL USE. THE OIL LEVEL IS ABOUT 1/4 TO 1/2 INCH ABOVE THE FULL LINE. HONDA DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT NOTHING IS WRONG, AND THAT NO ONE ELSE HAS HAD PROBLEMS. WHEN I HAD THE OIL CHANGED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, THEY STATED THE FOLLOWING: "OIL CONSISTENCY WAS LIKE WATER AND SMELLS OF GAS. OIL REGISTERED OVERFILLED. OIL IS ALSO LEAKING FROM REAR MAIN SEAL AREA. RECOMMEND HAVING THIS CHECKED BY HONDA." IF YOU LOOK ONLINE, THERE ARE PLENTY OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT OIL DILUTION IN THE 1.5 L TURBO ENGINE. CONSUMER REPORTS INVESTIGATED THIS ISSUE AND CONFIRMED THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE OF OIL DILUTION, SOME ENGINES HAVE BEEN STALLING WHILE ON THE ROAD. NOT ONLY IS THIS A QUALITY ISSUE, BUT IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE IN THE LONG RUN.
ENGINE OIL BAY SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE BECAUSE OF THE GAS MIXING WITH THE OIL. MY DAY IS FILLED WITH SHORT DRIVES SO THE GASOLINE WILL NOT EVAPORATE.
AFTER READING A CONSUMER REPORTS ARTICLE ABOUT GASOLINE IN THE OIL, ASKING OWNERS TO CHECK OIL LEVEL, I DID IT AND FOUND OUT THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS ABOUT ONE INCH ABOVE THE MAXIMUM MARK. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE TIP OF THE DIPSTICK SMELLS OF GASOLINE. I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL IN THE MORNING BEFORE THE CAR WAS DRIVEN SINCE YESTERDAY. PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHED PICTURE OF THE DIPSTICK.
VERY HIGH READING ON OIL DIPSTICK. STRONG GAS SMELL AS WELL. HONDA HAS AWARE THIS ISSUE BUT THE DEALER DENIES THE SMELL AND ONLY LOWER THE OIL LEVEL WITHOUT PERFORM OIL CHANGE.
SMELL OF GAS IN THE OIL WHEN I CHECKED IT. ONLY 4K MILES ON IT.
2 SEPARATE CONCERNS! IN THE PAST YEAR THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OCCASIONS THAT I SMELLED GASOLINE INSIDE THE VEHICLE. WHEN FIRST ENTERING AFTER THE CAR HAD BEEN PARKED. THIS OCCURRED DURING THE PAST 6 TO 8 MONTHS. STRONG ODOR. THERE IS GASOLINE MIXING WITH THE ENGINE OIL. WHEN YOU CHECK THE OIL LEVEL IT IS ALWAYS WAY OVERFILLED. IT IS OVERFILLED DUE TO THE GASOLINE MIXING WITH THE ENGINE OIL. LUBRICATING OIL IS BEING MIXED WITH SOLVENT - GAS. THERE IS THE VERY STRONG ODOR OF GAS AS SOON AS YOU PULL THE OIL DIPSTICK. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP DID NOT MAKE ANY REPAIR, THIS IS NOTED ON MY WORK ORDER.
GASOLINE GETS INTO ENGINE OIL. OIL DIPSTICK SHOWS OIL LEVEL .5 TO 1.0 QUARTS OVER FULL LEVEL AFTER 2200 MILES OF DRIVING. OIL IS VERY BLACK AND WATERY AND SMELLS OF GASOLINE.
SAFETY MESSAGE "RADAR OBSTRUCTED" SAFETY AFFECTED. OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING IN RAIN
THERE IS CONCERN THAT THE ENGINE WILL SEIZE WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS PARKED WHILE CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL, THERE IS A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR FROM THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL DIP STICK AND THE OIL FILLER CAP. ALSO THE OIL LEVEL SEEMS TO INCREASE BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. A SAMPLE OF THE OIL WAS SENT TO OIL ANALYZERS INC AT THE LAST OIL CHANGE BY THE OWNER. THE REPORT IS ATTACHED. NOTE THAT THE REPORT INDICATES FUEL DILUTION GREATER THAT 5% BUT IN THE COMMENT SECTION THE IS NO NOTED ENGINE WEAR METALS FOUND THAT IS ABOVE NORMAL. HONDA NORTH AMERICA WAS NOTIFIED AND CASE #09009335 WAS GENERATED. THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP WAS NOTIFIED BY U.S. POSTAL SERVICE CERTIFIED MAIL. THIS LETTER IS ATTACHED.
GAS IS GETTING INTO THE OIL.
I BOUGHT MY CR-V IN FEB 2017. SINCE 6TH OCT 2018 I HAVE BEGUN TO NOTICE HESITANCY PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AND IN SOME CASES THE ENGINE HAS ALSO STALLED. CAR WAS NOT IN ECON MODE, BEING DRIVEN ON 'D' MODE ON A CITY STREET. FACED SIMILAR ISSUE ON A HIGHWAY WHILE IN TRAFFIC. TODAY (15TH OCT) IT HAPPENED THRICE BACK TO BACK IN A 20 MINUTE DRIVE ON A CITY STREET.
I HAVE OBSERVED HIGH OIL LEVELS AND RAW FUEL ODORS ON THE DIP STCK, ALONG WITH RAW FUEL ODORS IN THE CABIN. I KNOW HONDA IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT HAS OFFERED NO GUIDANCE. TELL THEY HAVE A FIX IN PLACE, HONDA SHOULD BE GIVING FREE OIL CHANGES TO PREVENT ENGINE DAMAGE AND PREMATURE WEAR AND TEAR.
GASOLINE IS ENTERING INTO OIL. LOST POWER ON INTERSTATE COULD ONLY GO 12 MPH TOOK OFF RAMP CALLED HONDA THEY TOLD US TO SHUT OFF CAR AND START IT BACK UP. WAS ABLE TO DRIVE TO DEALERSHIP.
2017 CRV AWD 2 MONTHS INTO OWNING ALL LIGHTS ON DASH LIKE BRAKE SYSTEM ENGINE AIR BAGS, TIRER, BRAKE. I SEE SPOTS OF OIL DRIVEWAY BUT OIL IS ALWAYS FULL. STALLS SOMETIMES WHEN TAKING OFF. THE OTHER DAY THE BACK WHEELS LOCKED UP CAUSING THE SUV TO STOP IN MIDDLE OF ROAD, AND COULDNT MOVE FORWARD OR BACKWARDS. THE SUV SWAG SIDE TO SIDE CAUSING BACKEND TO SLIDE SISDE TO SIDE. MAKING IT VERY HARD TO KEEP THE SUV ON THE ROAD. I HAVE CALLED ABOUT THE DASH LIGHTS ALL OF THEM ON AND THEY SAID IT NEEDED TO BE REST. SMELL GAS INSIDE THE SUV. I HAD A 2006 HONDA CIVIC BROUGHT IT NEW I NEVER HAD A PROBLEM OUT OF IT GOING 300,000 MILES WITH NO PROBLEMS THATS WHY I CHOSE TO GET ANOTHER HONDA, BUT WITH 2017 HONDA CRV HAS BEEN HELL WITH ALL THE ISSUES AND IS A SAFETY CONCERN.
I WAS DRIVING AT ABOUT 45MPH, AND HAD TO STOPPED IN MEDIAN OF ROAD TO TURN RIGHT. ALL OF A SUDDEN MY HONDA CRV 2017 STOPPED AND ALL DASHBOARD LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING, IT STARTED SHOWING ALL THE FOLLOWING PROBLEMS. 1) BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM 2) BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM 3) AIRBAG SYSTEM (SRS) PROBLEM 4) POWER STEERING SYSTEM (EPS) PROBLEM 5) ANTI-LOCK BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM 6) VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST (VSA) PROBLEM 7) HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM 8) ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM 9) COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM 10) ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM 11) AUTO HIGH-BEAM PROBLEM 12) TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM 13) ALL WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM PROBLEM 14) LANE KEEPING ASSIST CANNOT OPERATE 15) SEAT BELT WARNING ON AND BEEPING EVEN THOUGH SEAT BELT WAS BEING WORN. I TRIED TO TURN OFF, AND TURN ON, NOTHING HAPPENED. EXITED THE VEHICLE, CHECKED THE CAR. NO PHYSICAL DAMAGE. TRIED TO START 2-3 TIMES MORE, STILL NO LUCK. I CALLED THE ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, AND TOWED THE CAR TO DEALER. DEALER KEPT THE CAR FOR 4 HOURS, AND CALLED ME THAT IT WAS LOW GAS ISSUE, AND CHARGED ME $88. I AM SURE IT WAS NOT LOW GAS, AND EVEN IF IT WAS LOW GAS, CAR WARNING SHOULD TELL ITS NOT STARTING DUE TO LOW GAS. IT SHOULD NOT BE THAT ALL 15 ERRORS START SHOWING ON DASHBOARD.
GAS SMELL AFTER TURNING MOTOR OFF, GAS IN ENGINE OIL
WHEN DRIVING AND APPROACHING TO ENTER TO A HIGHWAY WHEN YOU HAVE TO SPEED UP THE CR-V HESITATES TO BUILD SPEED AND SOMEWHAT STALLS EVEN WHEN FLOORING THE THROTTLE PEDAL. INCOMING TRAFFIC SUDDENLY NEED TO LOWER THEIR SPEED AND I BECAME CONCERNED THAT THEY POSSIBLY COULD HIT ME. THE CR-V RESUMED TO BUILD UP SPEED AND FUNCTION PROPERLY BUT AT A GREAT EXPENSE OF BEING UTTERLY NERVOUS WHEN THIS COULD HAPLEN AGAIN. THE UNIT WAS JUST SERVICED FOR OIL AND FILTER AND INSPECTED. WHAT SHOULD I DO?
OIL DILUTION ISSUE. UPON CHECKING ENGINE OIL LEVEL, NOTICED THAT LEVEL WAS 1/2" ABOVE TOP OF DIPSTICK MEASUREMENT AREA. ENGINE DIPSTICK ALSO SMELLED LIKE GASOLINE. TOOK CAR TO DEALER, THEY NOTED THE EXCESSIVE OIL LEVEL AS WELL, TOOK PICTURES, AND IS CONTACTING HONDA. DEALER STATED THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH A FIX EXPECTED IN NOVEMBER. DEALER CHANGED ENGINE OIL IN THE MEAN TIME TO BRING ENGINE OIL TO NORMAL LEVEL AND VISCOSITY. PREVIOUSLY NOTED WITH DEALER THAT SMELL OF GASOLINE WAS PRESENT IN VEHICLE CABIN. UNKNOWN FIX AT THAT TIME AND I STATED THAT I WOULD BRING IT BACK IF IT CONTINUES TO BE AN ISSUE.
I HAVE SMELLED GASOLINE THREE TIMES RECENTLY WHEN DRIVING. I CALLED THE HONDA HEADQUARTERS. THEY TOLD ME THIS PROBLEM IS SOMETHING THEY ARE WORKING ON. THERE IS NO FIX FOR IT AT THIS TIME. THEY CLAIM GAS LEAKS INTO THE OIL FILTER WHICH CAN AFFECT THE ENGINE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT MY SAFETY SND A POSSIBLE ENGINE PROBLEM. I HAVE RECEIVED NO SATISFACTION. IN ADDITION I HAVE HAD TWO OTHER MAJOR PROBLEMS IN THE SHORT TIME I AM DRIVING MY CAR. MY BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED 7 MONTHS AFTER I DROVE OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP I WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT WHEN MY BATTERY DIED. RECENTLY THE GEAR SHIFT KNOB BROKE OFF WHEN IT WAS IN DRIVE AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO SHIFT GEARS. I WAS DROPPING OFF A PASSENGER. IT WAS REPLACED.
OUR 2017 HONDA CRV KEEPS SHOWING OVER FULL EVEN THOUGH NO OIL WAS ADDED AND HAS A VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL TO IT. I FEEL FUEL MIXING IN THE OIL COULD BE A VERY UNSAFE CONDITION. THE ENGINE COULD ALSO SUFFER MAJOR DAMAGE BECAUSE OF THIS.
I HAVE DONE TWO OIL CHANGES AT HOME THIS PAST YEAR AND EACH TIME I HAVE EXTRACTED MORE FLUIDS THAN THE LISTED OIL CAPACITY IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. I READ AN ARTICLE FROM CONSUMER REPORTS REPORTING THAT THERE MAYBE GASOLINE MIXING WITH THE ENGINE OIL. THE SYMPTOM OF OVER FILLED ENGINE OIL IS A COMMON ONE AS REPORTED IN THE ARTICLE.
FUEL GETTING IN OIL, LEVEL IS HIGH ON DIPSTICK, SMELLS LIKE GAS ON DIPSTICK AND IN CAR WHEN ITS COLD OUTSIDE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT FUEL WAS DETECTED INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND IN THE ENGINE OIL WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CALLED LOVE HONDA AT (352) 628-4600 (LOCATED AT 2219 S SUNCOAST BLVD, HOMOSASSA, FL 34448) AND WAS INFORMED TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,968.
ENGINE OIL SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE
GAS WAS FOUND IN THE OIL. OIL STICK WAS ABOVE THE NORMAL RANGE. POOR GAS MILEAGE.
4000 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE, CHECKED OIL DIPSTICK, OIL LEVEL TOO HIGH...OIL SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. CRV NOT RUNNING SMOOTHLY, HESITATES UPON ACCELERATION.
THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER BUTTON FELL OFF WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN DRIVE AND MY SPOUSE COULD NOT RELEASE THE BRAKE IN ORDER TO COLLECT THE BUTTON AND PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK SHE HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD, TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND THEN FIND THE BUTTON ON THE FLOOR IN ORDER TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. HONDA SEEMS TO HAVE A TAKEN A VERY CASUAL RESPONSE TO THIS ISSUE WHICH SHOULD BE TREATED AS A SERIOUS CONCERN. FROM ALL OF THE RESEARCH AND PRESS I REVIEWED REGARDING THIS PROBLEM, THE ANSWER IS TO USE A PAIR OF PLIERS TO CHANGE GEARS OR GLUE THE PLASTIC PIECE IN PLACE. I BELIEVE THIS RECALL SHOULD BE MANDATED VERSUS TAKE IT TO THE DEALER SO HE CAN GLUE IT BACK IN. THIS VEHICLE WAS A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF MONEY SPENT NOT TO HAVE A TRANSMISSION WORK AS INTENDED.
AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE NEW, I NOTICED AT AROUND 4K MILES THE OIL SMELLED HEAVILY OF FUEL AND WAS OVERFULL. THE ENGINE OIL AND FILTER WERE CHANGED. 5K MILES LATER THE OIL AGAIN REEKED OF FUEL AS WAS OVERFULL. OIL AND FILTER CHANGED AGAIN. AT AROUND 15K MILES THE OIL AGAIN IS OVERFULL AND APPARENTLY DILUTED WITH OIL. I DID RESEARCH AND IT APPEARS THIS MAY BE A WIDESPREAD ISSUE. I'M CONCERNED IF I ACTUALLY FOLLOWED THE MAINTENANCE MINDER SYSTEM AND WENT 10K MILES PER OIL CHANGE THE ENGINE WILL LOCK UP FROM LACK OF LUBRICATION.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL HIGH
ENGINE OIL SMELL LIKE A GAS,GAS RUN INTO/MIX WITH ENGINE OIL,ENGINE OIL LEVEL RISING EACH WEEK. DEFINITELY EFFECT THE VEHICLE USE LIFE. IN THE WINTER SEASON,CAR HEATER HAS TO WAIT A LONG TIME TO GET HEAT FROM AIR CONDITIONER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE VEHICLE UNDERWENT AN OIL CHANGE, IT HESITATED TO ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CLASSIC HONDA OF MIDLAND (3705 W WALL ST, MIDLAND, TX 79703, (432) 681-1400) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENTIRE TURBO SYSTEM WAS BLOWN. THE DEALER RECEIVED AUTHORIZATION FROM THE MANUFACTURER TO PERFORM TESTS TO SEE WHO WAS LIABLE FOR THE DAMAGE. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO PERFORMED THE OIL CHANGE STATED THAT THE ENGINE MALFUNCTIONED. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC RAN TESTS ON THE OIL FILTER AND CONCLUDED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS AT FAULT FOR THE TURBO SYSTEM FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CURRENTLY CONTESTING THE CLAIM. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,800. *TT 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' UPDATED 12/07/18*JB
GAS SMELL IN CABIN. ENGINE OIL LEVEL HAS RISEN AND SMELLS LIKE GAS. SMELL HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES.
GAS IS MIXING IN WITH MY OIL CAUSING IT TO DILUTE OIL.
WITHOUT ANY REASON THE AUTOBRAKING/COLLISION SYSTEM HAS ENGAGED TWICE WHEN NO CARS OR ANIMALS ON THE ROAD ONE TIME GOING 55MPH AND ANOTHER TIME GOING APPROX. 40MPG. IN ADDITION THE DISPLAY SCREEN (RADIO ETC.) DOES NOT DIM. IT STAYS FULL BRIGHTNESS EVEN WITH ADJUSTING IT. HONDA HAD TO FIX WHEN VEHICLE WAS BRAND NEW AFTER I HAD TO FIGHT WITH THEM THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE. THE SCREEN BLINDS ME AT NIGHT BECAUSE IT IS VERY BRIGHT SO YOU CAN'T REALLY SEE THE ROAD. THIS STAYS BRIGHT STOPPED OR MOVING. LASTLY, NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT AUTO HIGH BEAMS ALSO HAD AN ERROR WHILE DRIVING.
GAS SMELL ON OIL DIP STICK, OIL LEVEL READING HIGHER THAN ORANGE MARKINGS, OIL BLACK AND WATERY
GASOLINE CONTAMINATION TO OIL. OIL LEVELS ARE HIGH AND SMELL OF GASOLINE. AMERICAN HONDA REPRESENTATIVE ADVISES THERE IS NO FIX. RECOMMENDS OIL CHANGES AS NEEDED, BUT WILL NOT REIMBURSE COST. ACCORDING TO CONSUMER REPORTS, HONDA CRV (2017 & 2018) OWNERS ARE REPORTING STALLS. THIS HAS POTENTIAL TO BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. NO RECALL ANNOUNCED. PLEASE GET WITH HONDA AND INVESTIGATE.
GAS SMELL INSIDE CAR WHILE DRIVING AND WHILE IDLE
GAS IN OIL
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HIGH OIL LEVELS ON THE DIPSTICK CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO OCCASIONALLY STALL AND CREATED A FUEL ODOR IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO (MCGRATH CITY HONDA, 6720 W GRAND AVE, CHICAGO, IL 60707) WHERE THEY CHANGED THE OIL. TWO WEEKS LATER, THE OIL LEVEL WAS HIGH AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,500.
ON THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 2018 AFTER GETTING OFF A FREEWAY AND SLOWING DOWN, I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR TO INCREASE THE SPEED, BUT IT DID NOT PICK UP; I TRIED MANY TIMES BUT MY CAR BARELY MOVED (LIKE 10 OR 15MILES). I PANICKED BUT I JUST TRIED TO PARK MY CAR IN THE PARKING OF A NEAREST GROCERY STORE. I COULD BARELY MOVE THE CAR AND PARKED THE CAR THERE. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED AAA. A GUY FROM AAA CHECKED MY CAR AND TURNED ON THE ENGINE; WE SMELLED VERY STRONG GASOLINE-LIKE EXHAUST. HE SUGGESTED MY CAR SHOULD BE TAKEN FOR INSPECTION. MY CAR WAS TOWED TO A HONDA DEALER BY AAA. ON 10/5, THE RESULT WAS "OIL WAS OVER-FILLED 3-4 QRTS OVER. DRAINED ALL THE OIL AND REFILLED TO SPEC." (AFTER 4,500 MILAGE, MY CAR'S OIL CHANGE HAD BEEN DONE BY ANOTHER HONDA DEALER ONE MONTH BEFORE.) AS MY CAR WAS FINE, I WAS TOLD TO PICK IT UP. BUT I FOUND A CONSUMER REPORT ARTICLE ABOUT 2017 CR-V'S RISING OIL LEVEL (GASOLINE-MIXED OIL), STALLING, LOSS OF POWER, GAS SMELL, ETC. THE SERVICE AND SALES PERSONS I ASKED ABOUT THIS ISSUE SAID THAT THEY HAD NEVER HEARD ABOUT THE ISSUE. ON 10/6, THE QC MANAGER CALLED ME, TELLING ME THAT I SHOULD CHECK MY CAR'S OIL LEVEL EVERY 500 MILES WITHOUT EXPLAINING MUCH. HE IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE, BUT HE DID NOT KNOW IT UNTIL THE PREVIOUS DAY, HE SAID. HE DID NOT KNOW ABOUT A FIX. I AM NOW SCARED OF DRIVING THIS CAR AND CANNOT TRUST THIS HONDA DEALER ANY MORE. WHILE I AM WRITING THIS REPORT, MY CAR PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED YET; I HAVE NOT EVEN PICKED UP MY CAR YET FROM THE DEALER. AS OF NOW (10/7), THIS HONDA DEALER HAS NOT RESPONDED POSITIVELY TO MY CAR PROBLEM. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE THIS REPORT TODAY TO WARN THE OWNERS OF 2017 CR-VS ABOUT A POSSIBLE DANGER.
STALLED MOMENTARILY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. OIL STICK INDICATES 25 % EXCESSIVE FLUID.
GASOLINE MIXING INTO ENGINE OIL - 1.5 LITER ENGINE. FIRST NOTICED AT 3000 MILES, NOW AGAIN AT 7700 MILES.
I HAVE NOTICED A GASOLINE SMELL IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT OF MY 2017 HONDA CR-V EX FROM TIME TO TIME, SO I DID SOME ONLINE RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THE PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD. IT SEEMS SIMILAR VEHICLES SUFFER FROM THE SAME PROBLEM WHERE GAS IS LEAKING INTO THE OIL. I CHECKED MY OIL LEVEL, AND SURE ENOUGH THE LEVEL IS VERY HIGH AND THE OIL SMELLS LIKE GAS.
ON SEVERAL SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE CAR HAS LOST POWER AND STALLED WHILE I WAS DRIVING.
OIL CRANKCASE SEEMS TO BE OVER FILL AFTER CHECKING THE DEEP STICK,AND SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE, POSSIBLY GAS IS LEAKING INSIDE AND GETS MIX WITH THE ENGINE OIL.
EXPERIENCING RISING OIL LEVELS DUE TO HIGH LEVELS OF GASOLINE BEING ENTRAINED IN THE OIL. THIS IS CAUSING THE OIL TO BECOME INCREASINGLY THIN AND POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ENGINE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND ON A FLAT SURFACE DURING EACH OF THE OIL CHECKS.
FUEL IS MIXING WITH THE MOTOR OIL AND DILUTING IT. OIL LEVEL RISES ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON THE OIL DIPSTICK AND HAS AN ODOR OF FUEL. I HAD A PROFESSIONAL OIL ANALYSIS PERFORMED THAT CONFIRMED THAT THE OIL IS BEING DILUTED AND VISCOSITY LOST. A COPY IS ATTACHED. THE FLASH POINT ALSO IS REDUCED. THIS PROBLEM COULD AFFECT ENGINE PERFORMANCE AND BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE. THE PROBLEM IS ONGOING. THE DATE GIVEN IS THE DATE OF THE ATTACHED REPORT.
HONDA HAS OVER 19,000 MILES AND READ ABOUT GAS IN OIL. AS A FORMER MECH. I CHECKED DIPSTICK AND YEP, CAN SMELL GASOLINE IN OIL. CHECKED ANOTHER SUV I HAVE TO BE SURE NOT CRAZY AND GAS IS PRESENT.
WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY OR STREETS I HAVE SEVERAL PROBLEM LIGHTS. ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MIGRATION PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE MIGRATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND SOME DRIVE ASSIST SYSTEMS CANNOT OPERATE:RADAR OBSTRUCTED. MY CAR HAS BEEN IN FOR REPAIR 10-12 TIMES FOR THESE ISSUES. DEALERSHIP HAS PUT ON A NEW CAMERA AND WIRING HARNESS AND THE LIGHTS HAVE COME ON AFTER. I HAVE BEEN TOLD IF IT IS CLOUDY,RAINY, SUNNY, LINES ON THE ROADS AREN'T DARK ENOUGH, SHADOW FROM ANOTHER VEHICLE OR BUMPS MAY CAUSE THIS. SO IF IT ISN'T PERFECT WORLD, THIS WILL HAPPEN. THE FINAL SOLUTION LAST WEEK WAS TO TURN OFF 2 FUNCTIONS, THE LANE KEEP ASSIST AND THE COLLISION MIGRATION. I NOW HAVE A BASE LINE MODEL CAR BECAUSE I CAN'T USE ALL THE FUNCTIONS I BOUGHT THE CAR FOR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AS I DRIVE I75 EACH DAY AND 'WHEN' THIS HAPPENS,IT KICKS OFF THE CRUISE CONTROL. DEALERSHIP SAID A NEW MODEL WOULD NOT SOLVE THIS AS THE 2017,2018,AND 2019 HAVE THE SAME ELECTRONICS ALONG WITH SEVERAL DIFFERENT MODELS OF CARS. NEED A PERMANENT FIX AS I AM AT THE POINT OF RETAINING A LAWYER. MULTIPLE DATES OF THIS HAPPENING
HONDA CR-V 2017 BOUGHT DECEMBER 23, 2017 FROM ZIMBRICK AUTO MADISON, WISCONSIN JULY 15, 2018 THE CAR WAS PARKED IN OUR DRIVEWAY AND WOULD NOT START. WE HAVE A TOWING COMPANY HAULED IN FOR REPAIR. NOW, ON OCCASION THE CAR CABIN SMELLS GASSY. THE OIL FILLER CAP WHEN REMOVED ALSO HAS A VERY STRONG GASSY SMELL.
THERE IS GASOLINE DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL
DRIVING HIGHWAY 15 EAST TOWARD LAS VEGAS, NV. LIGHT ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER "SHUTTER GRILLE PROBLEM - POWER REDUCED". VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION AS THE ENGINE POWER WAS REDUCED TO 50 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, I WAS UNABLE TO PASS AN 18 WHEELER TRUCK DUE TO REDUCED ENGINE POWER. STOPPED AT NEARBY HONDA DEALER, SERVICE DEPT. WAS CLOSED, NEW CAR MANAGER SAID "I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THIS CODE MEANS" AFTER SITTING FOR 15 MINUTES CODE RESET ITSELF ONLY TO COME BACK ON AFTER ANOTHER 10 MINUTES OF DRIVING. TEMPERATURE WAS 103 DEGREES OUTSIDE.WENT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP IN LAS VEGAS TO BE TOLD AGAIN "HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS CODE BEFORE". NO RESOLUTION - VERY DANGEROUS CONDTION TO LOOSE 50% OF ENGINE POWER ON THE FREEWAY.
I HAVE A STRONG SMELL OF GAS COMING FROM THE ENGINE. IT HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES BUT 2 TIMES IN THE LAST WEEK. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN IT IS EARLY AFTER I START THE CAR AND WITHIN THE FIRST 2 OR 3 MILES OF DRIVING. IT IS CONCERNING BECAUSE THE SMELL OF GAS IS OVERWHELMING.
HAVE GAS IN MY OIL. DIPSTICK SHOWS OVER FILL.
I HAVE ONLY ABOUT 9700 MILES ON MY CRV BUT GASOLINE OR SOME FORM OF CONTAMINATION APPEARS TO BE FINDING THEIR WAY INTO THE OIL RESULTING IN EXCESSIVE OIL. THE OIL DIPSTICK READS BEYOND THE UPPER FILL LEVEL MARK. THIS APPEARS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITHOUT A SOLUTION - POSSIBLY LEADING TO ABRUPT FAILURE ON THE ROAD.
2017 HONDA CR-V ENGINE OIL LEVEL RISING, WITHIN 2000 MILES OF DRIVING, PAST TOP OF ORANGE PLASTIC DIPSTICK WHICH WOULD INDICATE AN OIL LEVEL MORE THAN 1/2 QUART HIGH AFTER BEING FILLED CORRECTLY BY DEALER TO THE 3.7 QUART HIGH LEVEL MARK. THIS OIL DILUTION (MOST LIKELY WITH GASOLINE AS THE OIL IS NOT TURNING WHITE AS WHEN WATER ENTERS THE OIL) REDUCES THE VISCOSITY OF THE 0-20W OIL WHICH COULD LEAD TO ENGINE BEARING SURFACES SEIZING AT SOME INOPPORTUNE TIME. ORANGE PLASTIC DIPSTICK IS DIFFICULT TO READ AND OIL LEVEL SHOULD BE ONLY READ AFTER THE ENGINE IS STOPPED FOR THREE MINUTES PER THE MANUAL...GUESS WE NEED A STOPWATCH. COLD ENGINE OIL LEVELS ARE EVEN HIGHER. OWNERS MANUAL P559 SPECIFICALLY STATES THAT THE OIL SHOULD NOT BE OVERFILLED. OVERFILLING CAN CAUSE AERATION OF THE OIL, CAUSING OIL PUMPING PROBLEMS, OR REDUCING LUBRICATION OF BEARING SURFACES. HAVE TO CALL HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE, START CASE#, AND PLEAD FOR FREE EXTRA OIL CHANGES WHEN HIGH LEVEL IS OBVIOUS AFTER SEVERAL READINGS.
GASOLINE IS LEAKING IN TO THE OIL. OIL IS WAY ABOVE FULL MARK ON DIP STICK AND THE ODOR OF GASOLINE IS PRESENT. FIRST NOTICED WHAT APPEARED TO BE INCREASES IN OIL ON THE DIP STICK ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO.
OIL DILUTION. MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN INSPECTED BY MY DEALER AND HAS BEEN DETERMINED THAT GAS IS DILUTING THE OIL. THIS IS HAPPENING ABOUT EVERY 500 MILES IN WARM 70+ DEGREE WEATHER, BUT HAPPENS SOONER IN COLDER WEATHER. BECAUSE IT'S A PAIN TO CONSTANTLY REPLACE THE OIL AND FILTER, I HAVE ONLY BEEN DOING IT EVERY 500 MILES. I DO CHECK THE DIPSTICK EVERY SO OFTEN TO MONITOR THE FLUID LEVEL IN THE ENGINE.
GAS SMELL ON OIL DIP STICK, OIL LEVEL READING HIGHER THAN ORANGE MARKINGS, OIL BLACK AND WATERY
THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE ON THE DIPSTICK WHEN CHECKING OIL LEVELS. OIL LEVELS ARE UP TO 1 INCH ABOVE THE HIGHEST MEASURABLE LEVEL ON THE DIP STICK. I HAD THE OIL ANALYZED AND IT SHOWED >5% OIL DILUTION. CITY GAS MILEAGE IS 21-22 MPG -- WAY BELOW ADVERTISED MPG. SEE ATTACHMENTS.
AFTER STARTING UP THE CRV IN THE GARAGE, I EXITED IT AND CLIMBED A SHORT ~100' RAMP ABOUT THE HEIGHT OF 1 STORY AT 10 MPH OR LESS. DURING AT LEAST TWO TIMES IN THE PAST 7 MONTHS, THE ENGINE SPUTTERED WHILE CLIMBING THIS RAMP AND NEARED A STALL POINT. THIS OCCURRED WHILE IN MONTANA. AFTER APPLYING PRESSURE TO ACCELERATOR, SPUTTERING STOPPED. ADDITIONALLY, THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS TIMES AT STARTUP WHEN THE CENTRAL DISPLAY SCREEN FREEZES, REMAINS BLACK, DENYING NAVIGATION ASSISTANCE AMONG OTHER OPTIONS. IT APPEARS THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT THIS IS TO RESTART THE VEHICLE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIFTGATE FAILED TO STAY OPEN. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,478.
UPON STARTING MY 2017 HONDA CRV WHICH HAS THE 1.5L TURBOCHARGED ENGINE, I SMELL AN ODOR OF GASOLINE. THE GASOLINE ODOR IS ALSO PERCEIVED DRIVING OR STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT.
I HAVE HAD THE HONDA SINCE NOV 2017 & HAVE HAD 2 SHUTTER RELEASE PROBLEMS-LOSS OF POWER‼️‼️ IT REDUCED 15 MILES AN HOUR GOING UP A HILL & KEPT REDUCING POWER.. I COULD HAVE BEEN ON A TWO WAY ROAD & GOTTEN INTO HEAD ON‼️‼️ TOOK IT TO DCH HONDA TEMECULA, CA & THEY SAID THERE IS NO FIX & WANTED ME TO GO ON MY MERRY WAY‼️‼️ CALLED THEIR CORP. OFFICE, OPENED A CASE IT BUT THE CASE PERSON WOULD NOT TALK TO ME OR CALL ME BACK‼️‼️ I HAVE AN ARBITRATION CASE NOW SET UP WITH NCDS & HONDA.. HONDA IS NOT UNDER THE CA LENON LAW BUT WITH NCDS (NATIONAL CENTER FOR DISPUTE SETTLEMENT). THE HONDA PERSON ASSIGNED TO ARBITRATION CASE CALLED ME & TOLD ME I DON'T HAVE A CASE AS I ONLY TOOK IT IN 1 TIME. BUT, I CALLED DCH-HONDA TEMECULA, CA TO SET UP APPT TO GET THIS FIXED & THEY WOULDN'T CALL ME BACK FOR APPT.- AS THE CAN'T FIX IT‼️‼️ THIS CAR IS GOING TO CAUSE A DEATH & HONDA COULD CARE LESS, I JUST DON'T WANT TO BE THAT DEATH STATISTIC‼️‼️ THE US DOES NOT NEED A COMPANY THAT DOESN'T STAND UP & ACKNOWLEDGE THEIR FAULTY PRODUCTS & FIX THEM‼️‼️😠 NOW "HIGH BEAM PROBLEM" IS COMING UP ON DASH‼️‼️ IT'S THE LEXUS GAS PETAL ISSUE - & THAT ENDED UP CAUSING 3 DEATHS‼️‼️
IT IS QUITE COMMON FOR THE AIRBAGS TO BE TURNED OFF FOR THE PASSENGER SEAT EVEN WHEN MY WIFE IS SITTING IN IT. WE HAVE NOT FOUND A WAY TO GET THEM TO COME ON. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS VERY UNSAFE. THE ISSUE HAS EXISTED SINCE THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED OIL DILUTION. WHEN THE CONTACT REMOVED THE OIL DIP STICK, THE ODOR OF FUEL WAS PRESENT. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,500.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. PRIOR TO THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT NOTICED A STRONG ODOR OF FUEL INSIDE THE VEHICLE WHEN THE ENGINE WAS STARTED. ALSO, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED WITHOUT WARNING. DURING ANOTHER OCCURRENCE, ALL OF THE WARNING INDICATORS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE ENTERED INTO LIMP MODE. FURTHERMORE, THE ABS ENGAGED WITHOUT WARNING ON TWO OCCASIONS. ROSSI HONDA (1517 S DELSEA DRIVE, VINELAND, NEW JERSEY 08360, (856) 692-1700) DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL WAS DILUTED WITH FUEL AND UPDATED THE VEHICLE'S SENSING SOFTWARE SYSTEM; HOWEVER, THE FAILURES RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 5,000.
OIL VOLUME INCREASES OVER TIME. OK SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE AND TURNS BLACK. HEATER BARELY WORKS IN THE WINTER. HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM AND SUGGESTED MORE FREQUENT OIL CHANGES DUE TO FUEL DILUTION. HOWEVER THEY REFUSE TO PAY FOR THE OIL CHANGES. I HAVE DOCUMENTATION OF THE ISSUE FROM MY HONDA DEALER.
MY CAR DEVELOPED THE GAS-IN-OIL PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED ON. TOOK TO DEALER, WHO OPENED A TICKET WITH HONDA. PROBLEM CONTINUES, NO FIX OFFERED YET. THIRD PARTY USED OIL ANALYSIS CONFIRMS THE PROBLEM.
PERIODIC GASOLINE SMELL IN THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE, MOST NOTABLY WHEN IT IS VERY COLD. ALSO, HIGH OIL LEVEL WITH THE APPEARANCE OF GASOLINE MIXING WITH THE ENGINE OIL. TO DATE, VEHICLE HAS NOT STALLED OR LEFT ME STRANDED. COMPLAINT FILED WITH AMERICAN HONDA MOTOR COMPANY AND DEALER VISIT SCHEDULED TO EVALUATE.
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO MALFUNCTION TO DRIVER SIDE MIRROR DUE TO HEAT FROM REFLECTION OF THE SUN. *AS *TR
VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND WOULD NOT START SUDDENLY AFTER BEING OFF AND NOT ON ACCESSORY MODE. WHEN VEHICLE WAS JUMP STARTED AND WHEN VEHICLE RESTARTED THE DASHBOARD READ MANY ERRORS AMONG THEM, BREAK SYSTEM ERROR, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN THE SOLE OWNER/DRIVER OF THE VEHICLE AND GET IT SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP AS ADVISED.
MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONED. WHEN I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK EVERYTHING WAS INTACT WITH THE GEAR SHIFT. I EXITED MY VEHICLE AND PRESSED THE LOCK ON MY KEY FAB. I RETURNED TO MY VEHICLE THE NEXT EVENING TO MOVE IT (ALTERNATE SIDE STREET PARKING IN MY AREA). I PRESSED THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON MY KEY FAB , REACHED FOR HANDLE OPENED DOOR GOT IN CAR. I PUT MY KEY IN THE IGNITION, THEN I PUT ON MY SEATBELT. I WENT TO PUT MY RIGHT HAND ON THE GEAR STICK THEN I WAS MOVING MY THUMB TO PRESS IN THE BUTTON TO SHIFT GEARS, IT WAS HOLLOW NO BUTTON WAS PRESENT IN THE GEAR STICK . I SCREAMED WHAT THE HELL AND STARTED LOOKING AROUND. THE BUTTON TO THE GEAR SHIFT IS ON THE FLOOR, I SAY OUT LOUD HOW THE HELL DID THAT COME OUT? THE VEHICLE CAN NOT BE PUT INTO DRIVE, REVERSE OR ANYTHING. I CALLED FOR A TOW TO A HONDA SERVICE FACILITY. I KNOW THAT MY VEHICLE HAD TO HAVE A DEFECTED GEAR SHIFT BECAUSE THAT BUTTON ON THE GEAR SHIFT STICK SHOULD NOT BE ABLE TO POP OUT ON A BRAND NEW VEHICLE WITH UNDER 6000 MILES ON IT. THAT PART SHOULD NEAR BE MADE POORLY BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE PROBLEMS IF IT POPS OUT WHILE YOU ARE DRIVING. THE HONDA SERVICE PEOPLE CLAIM SOMEONE PRIED IT OFF., IMPOSSIBLE THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN MARKS ON MY STICK AND THAT IS A VERY VERY THIN SPACE BETWEEN THE BUTTON INSERT AND THE GEAR SHIFT STICK ITSELF. I TOLD HONDA I AM THE ONLY PERSON WHO DRIVES MY VEHICLE AND MY VEHICLE IS WELL KEPT (CLEAN) INSIDE AND OUT . I TAKE GOOD CARE OF MY VEHICLE, I AM STILL PAYING FOR IT. I BELIEVE ON MY VEHICLE THAT GEAR SHIFT STICK WAS DEFECTIVE FROM THE MANUFACTURER POORLY AND CHEAPLY ASSEMBLED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE DISPLAY SCREEN MESSAGE APPEARED INDICATING A SECURITY SYSTEM FAILURE AND THAT THE TAILGATE DOOR WAS OPEN. UPON INSPECTION, THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE TAILGATE DOOR WAS SECURED. NEXT, THE SENSOR ERRONEOUSLY INDICATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DOOR WAS AJAR. MOMENTS LATER, WHILE DRIVING, THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM ERRONEOUSLY ACTIVATED AND THE VEHICLE ABRUPTLY CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ALTHOUGH NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE IN THE VICINITY. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER (DNC HONDA, 28 COUNTY RD, TENAFLY, NJ 07670), BUT THE FAILURES COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER, THE MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THE FAILURES WERE DUE TO THE CELL PHONE BEING USED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. AS A RESULT, THE BLUETOOTH WAS DEACTIVATED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,600.
FOR THE SECOND TIME, AFTER LEAVING THE VEHICLE PARKED FOR 3-5 DAYS THE BATTERY HAS BEEN DRAINED AND UNABLE TO START THE ENGINE.
GEAR SHIFT RELEASE BUTTON BROKE INTO SEVERAL PIECES. UNABLE TO REMOVE THE KEY WHEN VEHICLE IS IN PARK. CANNOT LEAVE IT IN A PUBLIC LOT WITH KEY IN THE IGNITION. IT WILL STILL SHIFT, BUT AFRAID IT WON'T AT ANY MOMENT SINCE SEVERAL OTHERS ON LINE HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM, AND INCLUDE PICTURES AND VIDEOS THAT MATCH MINE. I HAVE BEEN TRANSFERRED SEVERAL TIMES AND LEFT MESSAGE AT DEALER. NO RETURN CALL YET.
CAR LEFT IN PARKING LOT FOR FOUR DAYS. CAR WOULD NOT CRANK OR START. BATTERY SERVICED BY AAA, JUMP STARTED SUCCESSFULLY. NO OBVIOUS CLAMPS, WIRE, ALTERNATOR PROBLEM. CAR EVALUATED AT HONDA BURLINGTON DEALER. NO PROBLEMS FOUND. NO CAUSE FOR BATTERY FAILURE GIVEN. SERVICE CLERK AT DEALERSHIP AND AAA BATTERY SERVICE PERSON INDEPENDENTLY SUGGESTED THAT CAR SHOULD NOT BE LEFT UNPROVEN FOR MORE THAN A FEW DAYS AS BATTERY FAILURE HAS BEEN FOUND, WITHOUT AN OBVIOUS CAUSE. EVIDENTLY HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN # 17-032 ADDRESSES THIS ISSUE BUT NEITHER THE GENERAL HONDA CUSTOMER HOTLINE NOR THE BURLINGTON MASS DEALERSHIP ACKNOWLEDGE THIS WITH MY VEHICLE.
GEAR SHIFT LEVER ON CENTER CONSOLE HAS A SILVER BUTTON THAT MUST BE DEPRESSED IN ORDER TO MOVE GEARSHIFT. BUTTON DISINTEGRATED FROM THE INSIDE AND FELL OY, LEAVING GEAR SHIFT LEVER INOPERABLE. CLEAR A SAFETY HAZARD NOT TO BE ABLE TO CHANGE FROM DRIVE TO REVERSE TO PARK, ETC. DEALERSHIP REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY, AND STATED THIS IS A PROBLEM THEY SEE ON A DAILY BASIS WITH THIS MODEL.
WHEN I WAS DRIVING SLOWLY (20 TO 30 MPH) ON A CITY STREET, I NOTICED NOISE. I WENT OUT OF THE CAR AND NOTICED THE SPLASH GUARD WAS ALMOST TOUCHING THE GROUND. LATER ON, I HAD SOMEONE REMOVE THE SPLASH GUARD, AND NOTICED SOME SCREWS WERE MISSING. THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY, SO I PAID THE DEALERSHIP TO INSTALL A NEW SPLASH GUARD. I CALLED HONDA.COM SUPPORT NUMBER, AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I AM PRETTY SURE MY CAR DID NOT HIT ANYTHING SINCE IT WAS A CLEAR STREET AND I WAS DRIVING SLOW. IT WAS NOT CLEAR TO ME WHY IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. A SIDE NOTE: ON THAT SAME DAY, THE BATTERY ALSO DIED EVEN THOUGH THE CAR WAS JUST A LITTLE OVER ONE YEAR OLD. THE ORIGINAL DEALERSHIP DID REPLACE THE BATTERY FOR ME FOR FREE. IT WAS FRUSTRATING TO GET STUCK SOMEWHERE WITH TWO CAR ISSUES AT THE SAME TIME FOR A RELATIVELY NEW CAR.
A FEW WEEKS AGO, MY WIFE AND I WERE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND NOTICED A GASOLINE SMELL IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, WHICH LASTED A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME AND WENT AWAY. ON ANOTHER OCCASION WE NOTICED THE SMELL AGAIN. I CHECKED THE FUEL FILL TUBE BUT FOUND NO PROBLEM THERE. I ALSO CHECKED UNDER THE HOOD AND DETECTED A FUEL SMELL BUT SAW NO EVIDENCE OF A LEAK. WHILE UNDER THE HOOD I CHECKED THE OIL AND SMELLED A STRONG FUEL SMELL IN THE OIL. THE FLUID LEVEL ON THE DIPSTICK WAS 7/8' ABOVE FULL LEVEL. I CHECKED AND DOUBLE CHECKED THE LEVELS AND SMELL AND THERE WAS DEFINITELY GASOLINE IN THE OIL. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP (JOHNSON CITY HONDA IN JOHNSON CITY, TN) AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS WAS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE 1.5L ENGINE WHEN IT WAS DRIVEN AT LOW SPEEDS AND SHOULD BE 'DRIVEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS ON THE FREEWAY TO 'BURN OFF' THE FUEL IN THE OIL'! (WE HAD JUST RETURNED FROM A 750 MILE INTERSTATE TRIP).THEY DID CHANGE THE OIL BUT THERE WAS NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM. SINCE THEN THE OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED TO ' ABOVE FULL LEVEL AND THE FUEL SMELL IS PRESENT. IN MY OPINION, GASOLINE IN THE OIL PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD IN THAT IT CAN IGNITE UNDER EXTREME HEAT CONDITIONS AND CAN CAUSE RESPIRATORY ISSUES WITH PASSENGERS WHEN THE SMELL MIGRATES TO THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. I HAVE RECEIVED INFORMATION THAT HONDA HAS RECALLED APPROXIMATELY 350,000 OF THESE VEHICLES IN THE ASIAN MARKET, BUT THEY HAVE NOT MADE ANY ATTEMPT TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM IN THE U.S.
SHIFTER KNOB EXPLODED UNABLE TO SHIFT REVERSE, DRIVE, PARK DEALER ABLE TO FIX, REPLACED KNOB SAID THEY SEE THIS EVERYDAY
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS STOPPED, IT WAS REAR ENDED AND CAUSED A CHAIN REACTION CRASH. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BELTS FAILED TO WORK AS INTENDED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IMPACT CAUSED THE PASSENGER TO BE THROWN FORWARD DUE TO THE SEAT BELT FAILING TO SECURELY RESTRAIN HER. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BACK FRACTURED. THE DRIVER WAS ALSO THROWN FORWARD AND HIS CHEST MADE CONTACT WITH THE STEERING WHEEL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT FAILED TO RETRACT AND THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE PASSENGER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE BACK AND PELVIS. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A BACK INJURY. BOTH OCCUPANTS WERE TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL FOR MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT FACILITY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
THE SHIFTER BUTTON ON THE LEFT THAT YOU HAVE TO PRESS TO CHANGE GEARS BROKE AND POPPED OUT. CANNOT ENGAGE THE SHIFTER TO CHANGE FROM DIFFERENT GEARS UNLESS YOU MANUALLY PRESS THE MECHANISM INSIDE DOWN. HUGE PROBLEM. HAPPENED WHEN WE CAME HOME AND WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK. BUTTON BROKE AND POPPED OUT WHILE STILL IN DRIVE.
I PARKED THE CAR IN THE GARAGE ON 8/18/2018. I TURNED OFF ENGINE AND ALL ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT. WE WENT ON VACATION FOR 2 WEEKS. ON 9/3/18 WE RETURNED AND WE COULD NOT START THE CAR. THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AS IT WAS COMPLETELY DRAINED. I RESEARCHED ON CRV FORUM AND THERE SEEMS TO BE A KNOWING PROBLEM WITH BATTERY SLOW DRAINAGE DUE TO SOFTWARE AND/OR ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS
IN RAIN STORM DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED AT NIGHT ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS WENT OUT THEN BACK ON THEN OUT AGAIN SEVERAL MORE TIMES. I WAS SO DISTRACTED I JUST ABOUT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. I THINK THE HEAD LIGHTS MY HAVE GONE OFF AND ON ALSO, BUT I AM NOT SURE AS I WAS SO DISTRACTED BY THE DASH LIGHTS PROBLEM.
FUEL IN OIL. STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE, WATERY OIL, INCREASING LEVELS OF OIL AFTER OIL CHANGE.
PURCHASED NEW IN MARCH OF 2017. INSTUMENT CLUSTER HAS MALUNCTIONED X 4 SINCE THEN. TWICE JUST TOTALLY GOING BLACK WHILE DRIVING. TWICE CERTAIN ALARMS ARE INDICATED (LKAS,ACC, CMBS, ETC.) THESE LAST TWO REQUIRED VEHICLE CAMERA REPLACMENT. ENTIRE INSTUMENT CLUSTER REPLACED IN OCTOBER OF 2017. BRAKING: THIS VEHICLE HAS APPLIED IT'S BRAKES AT SUDDEN AND THE MOST INAPPRORIATE TIMES. JULY 2017 ON A FOUR LANE HWY BY MYSELF, NO OTHER VEHICLE, BRAKE ALARMS LIT UP ON INSTUMENT CLUSTER AND CAR RAPIDLY DECLERATED FROM 50 TO 20 MPH BEFORE BRAKE ALARM AND BRAKES DISENGAGED. WHEN SLOWING FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT WITH VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME, AT APPROXIMATELY 1 1/2 CAR LENGTHS FROM VEHICLE AND GOING APPROXIMATELY 10 - 5 MPH, CRV BRAKE ALARM LIT UP WITH SUBSEQUENT PANIC STOP BRAKING APPLIED. CRV'S ACC SYSTEM BRAKES THE VEHICLE WHEN APPROACHING ANOTHER PARKED OR DISABLED VEHICLE IN THE RIGHT EMERGENCY STOP LANE OR IS TURNING RIGHT AND IS PERHAPS 20-30 FEET DOWN THE RIGHT HAND ROAD. THIS OCCURS AW WELL WHEN ACC IS ENGAGED AND I AM IN THE LEFT LANE ON THE INTERSTATE AND OVERTAKING A VEHICLE TO MY RIGHT. THE DEALER TELLS ME THEY CAN FIND NO ERROR CODES NOR DO THEY HAVE ANY DATA OF THESE SYMPTOMS FROM HONDA AMERICA. BRAKING DOES NOT OCCUR ALL THE TIME. BUT WHEN IT DOES IT'S SURPRISING AND SCARY. IT SEEMS TO ME WITH ALL THE REPORTS I HAVE READ ON THE NHTSA WEB SITE CONCERNING THIS SAME PROBLEM, PERHAPS AMERICAN HONDA SHOULD TAKE A SERIOUS LOOK BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.
OIL IS GETTING DILUTED WITH GAS AND YOU CAN SMELL GAS FUMES IN THE CABIN MAKING THE CR-V UNSAFE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 35-40 MPH, THE SHIFT BUTTON POPPED OUT AND THE SHIFTER SHAFT FRACTURED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ORR HONDA OF HOT SPRINGS (4701 CENTRAL AVE, HOT SPRINGS, AR 71913, 501-525-4565) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE GEAR SHIFTER MECHANISM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE REALIGNED WITH NEW TIRES. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 08949491. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,100. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
AS I WAS LEAVING THIS MORNING I HEARD SOMETHING CRACK AND FALL. I DIDN'T LOOK DOWN TO SEE WHAT IT WAS SINCE THE CAR MOVED INTO D WITH NO PROBLEM AND I DROVE TO WORK. WHEN I WENT TO PUT THE CAR IN REVERSE TO PARK (STOPPED) I LOOKED OVER AND NOTICED THE BUTTON YOU PUSH TO SELECT GEARS WAS MISSING I ONLY SAW A SPRING. I LOOKED DOWN AND SAW IT HAD FALLEN OFF. I WAS ABLE TO USE IT TO PUSH IN AND CHANGE GEARS, BUT I WASN'T ABLE TO SHUT IT OFF PROPERLY WITHOUT EFFORT WHEN STATIONARY.
ON MONDAY, 8-20-18, THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM CAUSED THE CAR TO SLAM ON IT'S BRAKES. THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLES OR PEDESTRIANS ANYWHERE NEAR THE VEHICLE. IN THE PAST, THE BRAKE LIGHT ON THE DASH HAS LIT UP BEFORE WITH NO VEHICLES AROUND, BUT THIS IS THE FIRST TIME IT HAS SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHO SAID EVERYTHING CHECKED OUT FINE, THEN PRINTED OUT A BUNCH OF PAPERS FOR ME EXPLAINING HOW THE SYSTEM WORKS, WHICH IS BASICALLY SAYING IT DIDN'T HAPPEN. WE ARE VERY FORTUNATE THAT THERE WERE NO CARS BEHIND US. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHICH NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
SHIFT GEAR PUSH KNOB BROKE WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITION. THE VEHICLE IS ~11500 MILES.
SHIFT GEAR PUSH KNOB BROKE WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITION.
BROKEN SHIFT LEVER BUTTON. SERVICE ADVISOR SAYS HE IS SEEING SIMILAR OCCURRENCES 2 TO 3 TIMES A WEEK AND IN SOME INSTANCES CARS HAVE TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP.
I WAS DRIVING HOME 20 MILE PER HOUR .. I PUT MY LEFT TURN SIGNAL ON CUZ I WAS GONNA TURN LEFT ALL HE WARRING SIGN POP UP AND I PUSH MY CAR BREAK AND MY CAR DIDN'T STOP AND THEN I PUT GEAR ON PARK AND MY CAR STILL MOVING ... AND THEN I PUSH POWER OFF AND MY CAR STOP ON THE SIDE ROAD ... I SO SCARE ... AND I WAITING ABOUT 2 MINUTE AND PUSH POWER ON AND DRIVE SAFE HOME ... (WHEN I HOME I RESEARCH ON GOOGLE AND I FOUND A LOT OF PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM LIKE ME PLZ WATCH THOSE VIDEO ' HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/6AMQZDQNMGM ' AND ' HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/JHTWXJXCOTA ' ) WHAT IF I HAPPEN LIKE THAT IN HIGHWAYOR TRAFFIC ... I COULD DIE PLZ HELP I BUY NEW CAR CUZ I WANT TO DRIVE SAFE FOR VERY LONG TIME AND NOW MY VEHICLES IS STILL NEW BUT NOT SAFE TO DRIVE ...
ALL LIGHTS IN DASH ARE FLASHING CRUZE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK CAR HAS BRAKED HARD BY ITSELF FOR NO REASON I HAVE HAD THIS CAR FOR 5 MONTHS AND IT HAS DONE THIS OFF ON ON COMPUTOR HAS BEEN RESET TWICE ALLLIGHTS HAVE BEEN FLASHING FOR 4000 MILES NOW WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL
BOUGHT THE CAR APRIL OF 2017, AFTER A FEW MONTHS CAR WENT DEAD JUMP START IT AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC. DEALER REPLACES THE BATTERY, NOT MUCH EXPLANATION WHY. THE PROBLEM HAPPEN 2 MORE TIMES, HAD TO JUMP START CAR AGAIN TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER BUT THIS TIME DEALER TELLING ME THAT THE CAR NEEDS TO BE DRIVEN REGULARLY AND ALSO ON A CERTAIN DISTANCE SO THAT BATTERY WILL BE CHARGED UP COMPLETELY. AND WAS TOLD TO BUY A PORTABLE CHARGER, THE PROBLEM IS I BOUGHT THIS CAR SUPPOSEDLY FOR WEEKEND USE ONLY, NOW I AM REQUIRED TO DRIVE IT AROUND JUST TO CHARGE THE BATTERY.
WHILE MY CAR WAS PARKED OVERNIGHT, THE FRONT WINDOW WENT DOWN AND THE CLOCK ROLLED BACK 30MINUTES
TIME OF INCIDENT: MONDAY, AUGUST 14TH; 7:30 A.M. WHEN DEPRESSING THE SHIFT KNOB TO SHIFT TO REVERSE, THE BUTTON AS SHOWN IN THE PICTURE ATTACHED DISINTEGRATED INTO 3 PIECES. ONCE THIS OCCURRED, I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT GEARS SO HAD TO ACTIVATE THE EMERGENCY BRAKES WHILE I TRIED TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO SHIFT WITHOUT THE SHIFT KNOB. FORTUNATELY, I WAS ABLE TO SHIFT AND PARK THE VEHICLE BY INSERTING MY INDEX FINGER INTO THE SHAFT PORTION WHILE DEPRESSING THE BUTTON INSIDE THE BROKEN PORTION. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY DEALER AND ADDRESSED THE ISSUE WITH PARAGON HONDA AND WAS TOLD TO BRING THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP OR HAVE IT TOWED. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE REPAIR SHOP AFTER WORK IN THE EVENING, AND THE REPAIR SHOP DID NOT GIVE ME AN ESTIMATE TIME OF REPAIR WHEN REQUEST NEITHER DID THEY PROVIDE ME WITH A LOANER VEHICLE AS STIPULATED IN THE CONTRACT SIGNED WITH THE DEALER WHEN IT WAS PURCHASED IN FEBRUARY 2018. THIS ISSUE NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION SINCE IT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE ACCIDENTS IN UNEXPECTED CONDITIONS.
BATTERY WENT TOTALLY DEAD. DROVE 1.5 HR .AWAY FROM HOME VEHICLE SAT FOR 7 HR. RETURNED TO THE CAR AND DEAD. HAD TO BE JUMPED BY SECUIRTY. DROVE HOME STARTED IT A FEW TIMES AND THE NEXT DAY AND IT WAS FINE. I READ WHERE THERE IS A TSB 17-032. SOFTWARE BUG. DROVE TO WORK, WE'LL SEE IF IT STARTS TO GET HOME. GOING TO DEALERSHIP IN THE MORNING. NO DOCUMENTATION, SECURITY GUARD HAD ME FILL OUT A PAPER FOR THEIR RECORDS
MY CAR AUTOMATICALLY BRAKED WHEN I APPROACHED A METAL PLATE IN THE ROAD. I WAS NOT DRIVING AT A HIGH SPEED AND WOULD HAVE EASILY GONE OVER THE PLATE. I WAS ON A TOWN STREET, GOING STRAIGHT AT ABOUT 20 MPH. IF SOMEONE WAS BEHIND ME, THEY WOULD HAVE CRASHED INTO ME. THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THE BRAKING.
ENGINE OIL OVERFILL CONDITION EXISTS AS EARLY AS 700 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP. ENGINE OIL IS ABOVE THE 'FULL' MARK ON THE DIPSTICK AND THE ENGINE OIL HAS THE DISTINCT SMELL OF GASOLINE PRESENT. THIS PROBLEM IS REPORTED ON NUMEROUS HONDA CR-V OWNERS FORUMS AND IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE. IT IS OUR FEAR THAT IF THIS OVERFILL CONDITION IS DUE TO THE PRESENCE OF GASOLINE MIXING WITH THE CRANKCASE ENGINE OIL THAT THE RESULTS COULD BE CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE, EXPLOSION, SUDDEN LOSS OF ENGINE POWER, SUDDEN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL, ETC.
ENGINE OIL LEVEL OVER THE MAXIMUM LEVEL. AC BLOWS HOT AIR IN WINTER
THE TIRES SOLD ON THE HONDA CRV IN 2017 ARE SUBSTANDARD. AT 17,000 THEY ARE WORN TO THE POINT OF NEEDING REPLACEMENT. AS SOMEONE THAT IS MORE ACCUSTOMED TO TIRES LASTING 45,000 TO 80,000, THIS QUICK WEAR OUT CAUGHT ME BY SURPRISE. AT 17,000, I SHOULD HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE TIRES TO DRIVE IN THE RAIN -- NO SO. THESE ARE VERY DANGEROUS.
THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY BRAKED FOR NO REASON. I WAS A GOOD 4 CAR LENGTHS BEHIND CAR AHEAD OF ME. THERE WAS SLIGHT (LESS THAN 1/4 INCH) LIP IN ROAD- NOT EVEN A METAL PLATE
THE APPLE CARPLAY CONSTANTLY DISCONNECTS MAKING MY PHONE AND NAVIGATION USELESS. THE IPHONE WILL RANDOMLY DISCONNECT AND SOMETIMES NOT REGISTER AS CONNECTED.
AFTER JUMPING THE BATTERY - WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE, PEDAL JERKS MOMENTARILY BEFORE STARTING THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE GARAGE WITH DEAD BATTERY AFTER 2 DAYS OF NOT BEING USED.
THE INFOTAINMENT DISPLAY WILL RANDOMLY TURN OFF WHILE DRIVING. AUDIO CONTINUES TO PLAY WITHOUT DISPLAY. PRESSING THE HOME BUTTON SOMETIMES RESOLVE THE ISSUE, BUT SOMETIME IT REQUIRES TO HAVE THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY TURNED-OFF TO GET THE DISPLAY BACK.
FOWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE - WHEN DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITION, THE VEHICLE WILL ABRUPTLY APPLY BRAKE BY ITSELF ACTIVATING THE FORWARD COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM. THE "BRAKE" WARNING COMES-UP IN THE DRIVER'S DASHBOARD TO PROVIDE A VISUAL WARNING. THIS HAPPENS EVEN IF THERE WERE NO VEHICLE IN-FRONT AND ANTICIPATED FRONTAL COLLISION. THIS ABRUPT AND RANDOM BRAKING CAN CAUSE A REAR-END COLLISION.
HONDA SENSING ISSUE - WHEN DRIVING IN NORMAL CONDITIONS, THE VEHICLE WOULD APPLY BRAKE BY ITSELF AS IF A FRONTAL COLLISION IS EXPECTED EVEN IF THERE WERE NO OTHER VEHICLE IN-FRONT.
AUTOMATIC GEAR SHIFT BUTTON BROKE WHILE I WAS SHIFTING FROM REVERSE TO DRIVE. I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND COULDN'T SHIFT TO DRIVE.
STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE IN ENGINE OIL . OIL LEVEL RISES OVER FULL MARK ON OIL DIPSTICK SOMETIMES STRONG SMELL OF GAS IN AND AROUND CAR WHEN PARKED .
GASOLINE GETTING INTO THE OIL. DIPSTICK READ IN BETWEEN "THE LINES" ON LEVEL GROUND. DROVE 1500 MILES (APPROX.) DURING A VACATION. CHECKED OIL AT OUR DESTINATION, ON LEVEL GROUND, AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS 1/4" TO 3/8" ABOVE THE FULL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK AND SMELLED OF GASOLINE. I CALLED HONDA AND RECEIVED A CASE NUMBER 08740888. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD HONDA IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T KNOW WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. ALSO THERE IS A RECALL IN CHINA FOR THIS VERY PROBLEM. THE DEALER DID CHANGE THE OIL.
DRIVING ON FREEWAY. BUTTON TO SHIFT TRANMISSION/GEARS DISINTEGRATED. KNEW IMMEDIATELY THAT I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SHIFT CAR INTO PARK, ETC. FELT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SINCE I WAS GOING 50+ MPH WHEN THIS HAPPENED. BASED ON LEVEL OF COMPLAINTS - SEE LINK - BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY RECALL. ALSO COULD EASILY CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. HTTPS://WWW.CRVOWNERSCLUB.COM/FORUMS/137-2017-PRESENT-OFFICIAL-SPECS-FEATURES-ETC-GEN-5/168802-GEAR-SHIFT-BUTTON.HTML
VIN: (XXXXX) VEHICLE MILEAGE: 28,903 DESCRIPTION: I AM LEARNING THAT THE RADAR THAT CONTROLS THE EMERGENCY BRAKING SYSTEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION, COLLISION MITIGATION ETC. IS ONLY PROTECTED BY A "POP OFF COVER". I AM DEEPLY CONCERNED OVER THE LACK OF PROTECTION WHEN IT COMES TO SUCH A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF MY 2017 HONDA CRV. I AM BEING FACED WITH A MINIMUM $1,100 (PART ONLY) BILL TO REPAIR DAMAGE TO MY CARS RADAR SENSOR MOUNTED IN THE FRONT GRILL. I HAVE HAD OTHER PROBLEMS WITH RANDOM "DETECTION" COMPUTER MESSAGES ON THE DASHBOARD AND NOW FOR THIS PIECE OF PLASTIC TO BE POPPED OFF BY A SMALL PIECE OF DEBRIS ON THE ROAD THAT WAS KICKED UP FROM THE ROAD BY A VEHICLE TRAVELING IN FRONT OF ME IS RIDICULOUS. WHY WOULD SOMETHING SO IMPORTANT BE MOUNTED DEAD FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND NOT PROPERLY PROTECTED? I'M LOOKING FOR A BETTER OPTION TO HAVE THIS RESOLVED. I AM PRACTICALLY A "LIFE TIME" OWNER OF HONDA PRODUCTS. AND OVER THE YEARS I HAVE INCREASINGLY BECOME MORE AND MORE UNIMPRESSED WITH WHAT I FELL IN LOVE WITH AT THE BEGINNING OF MY HONDA JOURNEY. RESPECTFULLY (XXXX) PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
HONDA'S 1.5L TURBO ENGINE OIL LEVEL INCREASES IN THE ENGINE OIL OVER TIME AS UNBURNT EXCESS FUEL COLLECTS ON THE ENGINE CYLINDER WALLS. THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL GROWS QUICKER DEPENDING ON DRIVING CONDITIONS - SOMETIMES COLDER WEATHER, SOMETIMES FREEWAY SPEEDS, THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY VARIABLES. TO COMBAT THE ISSUE I AM FORCED TO CHANGE THE ENGINE OIL MORE OFTEN FOR FEAR OF ENGINE MISFIRES, ENGINE DAMAGE, AND PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR. WHEN I CHANGE THE OIL, I FILL THE OIL TO THE MID ENGINE OIL DIPSTICK MARK BUT WITHIN 1500 MILES OR SO THE OIL IS AT MAX DIPSTICK LEVEL AGAIN WITH STRONG FUEL SMELLS. TO DATE HONDA USA HAS NO PLAN FOR CORRECTION LET ALONE EVEN ACKNOWLEDGING THE ISSUE.
AUTO SHOWED TOO MUCH OIL ON DIPSTICK READING AND OIL HAD STRONG SMELL OF GAS. DEALER ONLY DRAINED EXCESS OIL AND SAID LIGHTS WILL COME ON IF REAL ISSUE. I SUSPECTED FUEL IN OIL SO HAD OIL TESTED AT NEXT OIL CHANGE. TEST SHOWED OIL IN CRITICAL STATE WITH OVER 5% FUEL IN OIL. DEALER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE ISSUE. WORRIES INCLUDE ENGINE FIRE, PREMATURE ENGINE WEAR AND DAMAGE. HONDA NEEDS TO ADMIT PROBLEM AND PRODUCE FIX. OIL ANALYSIS ATTACHED.
ALL SYSTEM SAFETY LIGHTS AND WARNINGS ARE SHOWING
COVER, ENGINE (LOWER) UNCLIPPED FROM THE FRONT AND BENT BACK DRAGGING UNDER MY CAR DRIVING 70MPH ON INTERSTATE. I WAS 1/3 OF THE WAY OF A 120 MILE TRIP. I PULLED OVER AFTER FEELING SOMETHING DRAGGING UNDER MY CAR. AT FIRST IT FELT LIKE A BLOWN TIRE. AFTER PULLING OVER I COULD SEE THE SHEET METAL DETACHED FROM THE FRONT (REAR BOLTS STILL HOLDING). I WAS FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO HAVE A GOOD SAMARITAN STOP AND PULL THE BOLTS HOLDING THE PART TO MY CAR WHICH ENABLED ME TO CONTINUE ON MY TRIP. WENT TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP THE FOLLOWING FRIDAY. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT MUST HAVE BEEN RELATED TO MY LAST OIL CHANGE THREE MONTHS AGO. HONDA AMERICA HASN'T OPENED A CASE AFTER SEVERAL PHONE CALLS. A PART OF A CAR SHOULDN'T FALL OFF. THIS WAS VERY SCARY AND I AM UNSURE HOW I SAFELY CHANGED LANES AT SUCH A HIGH SPEED. I HAVEN'T REPLACED THE PART SINCE I DON'T WANT TO BE STRANDED AGAIN. I TRAVEL ON THIS INTERSTATE TRIP TWICE A WEEK FOR LAST THE 3 MONTHS. MY FRIEND WHO HAS THE SAME CAR BOUGHT AT THE SAME TIME JUST HAD THE PART DETACH FROM THE FRONT BUT IT DIDN'T PEEL BACK AND DRAG AS MINE DID. THIS OCCURRED ON A LONG ROAD TRIP. I WILL ENCOURAGE MY FRIEND TO REPORT HERE. I AM CONCERNED FOR OTHER'S SAFETY. I EXPECT BETTER FROM HONDA ENGINEERS.
FOR THE THIRD TIME, SINCE BUYING THE CAR NEW, ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON, AND ALL SAFETY SYSTEMS SHUT DOWN. THIS TIME POWER STEERING WAS ALSO LOST WHICH COULD'VE CAUSED A CRASH. I BELIEVE THIS IS DUE TO RODENT DAMAGE AGAIN. HONDA SELLS RODENT TAPE AND I'VE USED IT BUT CAN'T TELL WHERE THE RODENTS WILL EAT. I BELIVE THIS IS DUE TO THE SOY-BASED INSULATION AND OTHER PARTS IN THE CAR AS NONE OF MY OTHER VEHICLES HAVE EVER HAD THIS ISSUE AND I LIVE IN A RURAL ENVIRONMENT. VEHICLE WAS NOT BEING DRIVEN'WAS TEMPORARILY PARKED OUTSIDE WHEN THIS HAPPENED.
GASOLINE DILLUTION OF ENGINE OIL
HONDA SENSING ACTIVATED AND SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES DURING REGULAR SUBURBAN DRIVING WITHOUT ANYTHING TO PROMPT IT. I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 40 MILES AN HOUR DOWN A LOCAL ROAD WITHOUT HAVING A CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THE VEHICLE SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND SENT A WARNING AS IF SOMETHING WAS IMPEDING THE FRONT PATHWAY WHILE MOVING. THERE WERE NOT ANY CARS IN FRONT AND THE CAR SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES CAUSING MY BELT TO LOCK UNEXPECTEDLY AND VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN DRAMATICALLY LEADING TO ME ALMOST BEING REAR ENDED.
SUNROOF EXPLOSION: NEW HONDA CR-V WITH ONLY 4,420 MILES. THE SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING DOWN A STATE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH. NO CARS OR TRUCKS WERE DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME AND NO ROCKS OR DEBRIS WERE FOUND BY THE SERVICE REPAIR IN REMAINING SHATTERED GLASS. LUCKILY I DID NOT HAVE THE SUNROOF OPEN SO THE GLASS PARTICLES DID NOT FLY INTO THE PASSENGER AREA, BUT CARS BEHIND ME SLOWED AS SOME GLASS PARTICLES FLEW FROM THE ROOF. HONDA REPLACED THE SUNROOF UNDER WARRANTEE BUT EXPLODING SUNROOFS ARE DISORIENTING TO THE DRIVER AND NOT SAFE TO PASSENGERS OR OTHER CAR DRIVERS WHO CATCH THE FLYING GLASS PARTICLES.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING OUT OF A PARKING LOT, A LOUD POPPING SOUND WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THAT THE SUN ROOF HAD EXPLODED AND SHATTERED INTO PIECES. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE DEALER (O'NEILL HONDA, 7979 METCALF AVENUE, OVERLAND PARK, KANSAS 66204) WAS CONTACTED AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE AND CASE NUMBER: 08822895 WAS OPENED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.
WE WERE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WHEN WE SUDDENLY HEARD A LARGE EXPLOSION. WE THOUGHT SOMETHING HAD HIT US. BY GOD'S GRACE, NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE NEAR US. AFTER WE RECOVERED FROM THE SHOCK WE REALIZED THAT A LARGE NOISE WAS COMING FROM ABOVE. IN FACT, THE SUNROOF HAD EXPLODED. WHEN WE GOT OFF THE ROAD WE FOUND THAT 70% OF THE GLASS WAS GONE. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES NEAR US, AND CERTAINLY NOTHING ABOVE US.
IT WAS A RECORD HOT DAY, 100 DEGREES, AND MY CR-V WAS PARKED IN MY PAVED DRIVEWAY, IN THE SUN. I WAS WATERING MY OUTDOOR PLANTS (NOT WASHING MY CAR, OUR WELL WATER WOULD ONLY LEAVE WHITE SPOTS ON IT) AND WAVED THE HOSE OVER MY CAR AND "POP!"- THE FRONT WINDSHIELD CRACKED IN TWO DIFFERENT PLACES, BOTH ARE LARGE CRACKS, 10 AND 18 INCHES. THIS WAS DUE, I BELIEVE, TO THE COOL WATER ON THE HOT WINDSHIELD. I BELIEVE THE CAR IS NOW UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS THE CRACKS ARE SO PROMINENT AND I QUESTION THE WINDSHIELD'S INTEGRITY.
THE CHROME/PLASTIC SELECTOR PART THAT ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO BE SHIFTED TO AND FROM PARK AND THE OTHER AUTOMATIC GEARS IS A KNOWN FLAWED HONDA DESIGN. THE SHIFT SELECTOR BUTTON FAILED YESTERDAY ON OUR 2017 CRV. DUE TO THE DESIGN BEING SPRING LOADED, THE BROKEN PART FLEW OUT OF THE SHIFT SELECTOR AND WAS LOST TEMPORARILY. LACKING THIS BROKEN PART AND BEING UNABLE TO REINSERT IT PROPERLY INTO THE SELECTOR, THE VEHICLE CAN'T BE MOVED INTO PARK AND THUS BY HONDA DESIGN CAN'T BE TURNED OFF. THIS IS BOTH A FIRE AND SAFETY HAZARD THAT IS WELL KNOWN TO HONDA (THEY USED THE POOR DESIGN ON EARLIER ACCORD AND OTHER MODELS). WHEN SPEAKING WITH HONDA SERVICE AND PART DEPARTMENT AGENTS, THEY READILY ACKNOWLEDGE THE DESIGN FLAW, ARE DISAPPOINTED HONDA CONTINUED TO USE THE HAZARDOUS DESIGN (IT WAS A SAME PROBLEM IN EARLIER MODELS). HONDA'S RESPONSE SEEMS TO BE TO LET THE SELECTOR BUTTONS FAIL, KEEP A PLENTIFUL SUPPLY OF REPLACEMENTS ON HAND IN THEIR PARTS DEPARTMENTS AND LET THE GENERAL PUBLIC ABSORB THE RISKS. THIS PATTERN AND PRACTICE IS BOTH UNSAFE AND UNACCEPTABLE. HONDA NEEDS TO DESIGN A MORE ROBUST SELECTOR BUTTON AND REPLACE ALL CURRENT ONES VIA A RECALL.
HONDA CRV BRAKING SYSTEM FAILUREJUNE 2018 MODEL: CR-V YEAR: 2017 MILEAGE: 5,900 VIN: [XXX] ON JUNE 23RD, 2018, WHILE EXITING A FREEWAY AT ABOUT 60MPH, I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR AND APPLIED NORMAL PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT NO BRAKING OCCURRED. I TRIED PUMPING THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. I THEN USED GREATLY INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT WITH NO DISCERNIBLE EFFECT. AFTER ABOUT EIGHT SECONDS OF CONTINUED EXTREME PEDAL PRESSURE, A YELLOW "BRAKING SYSTEM" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, FOLLOWED BY A RED "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE APPEARANCE OF THE WARNING LIGHTS, A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD, COMING FROM THE WHEELS, ACCOMPANIED BY A VIBRATION WHICH I INTERPRETED AS MODULATED BRAKING THAT COULD BE FELT THROUGH MECHANICAL FEEDBACK IN THE PEDAL. THE CAR CAME TO A STOP JUST IN TIME, BEHIND TRAFFIC THAT HAD BEEN WAITING AT A SIGNAL LIGHT. TEN SECONDS AFTER STANDING AT THE LIGHT, ALL WARNING LIGHTS EXTINGUISHED, AND THE BRAKES FUNCTIONED NORMALLY THEREAFTER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS, THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH THE PROBLEM, HAD RECENTLY ENCOUNTERED AN IDENTICAL CASE OF BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE, BUT THAT HIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE FAULT OR ENACT REPAIRS. HE DECLINED TO EXAMINE MY VEHICLE ON THAT BASIS. SINCE THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER PROVIDED NO RESOLUTION, I UPDATED THE SOFTWARE IN MY OWN SCANNER, CONNECTED IT TO THE VEHICLE, AND FOUND THAT TWO ERROR CODES HAD BEEN RECORDED: 1) U0418-68/P ESB FAILURE EMINENT 2) U0416-68/P VSA SYSTEM MALFUNCTION DTC I AM CONTINUING TO PURSUE A REMEDY TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE THAT OCCURRED IN MY VEHICLE, SINCE IT REPRESENTS AN ONGOING AND UNREASONABLE RISK. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
COMPLETE VEHICLE SYSTEM PROBLEM MESSAGES. VEHICLE STABILITY, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, COLLISION MITIGATION, ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION, ELECTRICAL PARKING BRAKE, EMISSIONS SYSTEM, BRAKE SYSTEM, BRAKE HOLD, POWER STEERING, HILL START ASSIST, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM, POWER STEERING SYSTEM PROBLEM. EVERY ONE OF THESE SYSTEMS IS DISPLAYING A 'PROBLEM' MESSAGE AS WELL AS BRAKE LIGHT IS FLASHING ON THE DASHBOARD ENGINE LIGHT IS ON BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT IS ON STEERING WHEEL LIGHT IS ON VEHICLE STABILITY LIGHT IS ON BATTERY LIGHT IS ON AND OIL LAMP IS ON. THIS IS ABOUT THE FIFTH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED THIS WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY DISPLAY ALL THESE ERROR MESSAGES FOR NO APPARENT REASON. SOMETIMES THE ERROR MESSAGES WILL POP UP AS SOON AS YOU TURN THE CAR ON OTHER TIMES IT HAPPENS SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING. IT HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS AND ON THE HIGHWAY STRAIGHT AWAY OR TURNING
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, A SUDDEN LOUD BOOMING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE SUN ROOF SHATTERED. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE SUN ROOF WAS IN THE CLOSED POSITION. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (RICK CASE HONDA, 15700 RICK CASE HONDA WAY, DAVIE, FL 33331), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO NOTIFIED, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.
REMOVED DIPSTICK AND SMELLED GAS IN OIL. OIL WAS ALSO SO THIN I COULD NOT TAKE A READING. SAW ON VARIOUS WEBSITES OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING SOMETHING SIMILAR. CHECKED AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR 15 MINUTES.
FUEL IN OIL DILUTION EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF FUEL IN OIL CAUSING OVER FILL AND ENGINE OIL VISCOSITY BREAKDOWN.
I PARKED MY CAR AND TURNED IT OFF TO GO INTO A STORE. WHEN I CAME OUT I FOUND THAT MY CAR HAD ROLLED BACKWARDS INTO ANOTHER CAR. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO EITHER CAR, AS I ASSUME IT OCCURRED AT A VERY LOW SPEED. WHEN I RENETERED THE VEHICLE IT WAS STILL IN THE DRIVE GEAR, WHICH WAS MY ERROR. HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW HOW THE CAR WAS ABLE TO BE TURNED OFF COMPLETELY AND LOCKED WHILE NOT EVEN IN PARK OR EVEN NEUTRAL. MOREOVER THE CAR WAS IN THE DRIVE GEAR, WHICH I WOULD PRESUME WOULD MEAN IT WOULD GO FORWARD, BUT IT WAS STILL ABLE TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THIS IS INCREDIBLY CONCERNING. I CALLED HONDA AND WAS INFORMED THERE ARE NO RECALLS AND THE BEST THEY COULD DO WAS TO INFORM THEIR ENGINEERING TEAM FOR FUTURE MODELS. I HAVE HAD OTHER CARS AND WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION UNLESS THE CAR WAS IN PARK. HONDA SHOULD BE FORCED TO IMPLEMENT THIS AS WELL AS I CANNOT THINK OF ANY REASON TO KEEP YOUR CAR IN DRIVE WHILE THE ENGINE IS COMPLETELY OFF.
OUR 2017 HONDA CRV EXL HAS A CLIMATE CONTROL ISSUE WHEN TEMPERATURES GET BELOW FREEZING AND THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE AS THE TEMPERATURE LOWERS. THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL NOT WARM UP AND OF COURSE THE CLIMATE CONTROL WILL NOT WARM UP THE VEHICLE CABIN. THE ONLY WAY WE CAN GET ANY HEAT INSIDE THE VEHICLE IS BY CIRCULATING INSIDE AIR BUT WHEN YOU DO THAT,THE WINDOWS FOG UP AND OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO USE A RAG TO KEEP FOG OFF WINDOWS. HONDA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERES A PROBLEM. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE MOST OF OUR DRIVING IS TOWN DRIVING AND WINDOWS FOGGING OVER IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM WHEN CIRCULATING INSIDE AIR.
AS I OPENED MY DRIVER'S DOOR OF VEHICLE, WHICH WAS BACKED IN MY DRIVEWAY SINCE YESTERDAY, IT STARTED TO RAIN AND MY REAR HATCH-BACK WINDOW EXPLODED.THE ENTIRE WINDOW WAS BLOWN OUT.
DURING MORNING COMMUTE 0655 HOURS DURING HEAVY DOWNPOUR ALL INSTRUMENT DASH LIGHTS STOPPED ILLUMINATION, I TURNED OFF DEFROSTER, RADIO AND WIPERS. I PULLED OFF EXPRESSWAY CAREFULLY AND AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WAS RE ILLUMINATED. AT WORK I NOTIFIED HONDA DEALER OF INCIDENT. A SERVICE APPT. WAS MADE. SAFETY HAZARD
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - BUTTON ON GEAR SHIFT BROKE AND SINCE IT HAS A SPRING - THE BUTTON CAN COME OUT OF THE GEAR SHIFT. IF THIS OCCURS, THE GEAR SHIFT CAN NO LONGER BE USED UNTIL THE BUTTON IS FOUND ARE REINSERTED. THIS COULD RESULT IN NUMEROUS DANGEROUS SITUATION.
THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK RELEASE BUTTON BROKE (HONDA PART NO. 54132-TLA-A62ZB) THEREBY MAKING THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INOPERABLE INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK POSITION. ALL I DID WAS TO TRY TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK AND, WHEN I DEPRESSED THE RELEASE BUTTON ON THE STALK, IT FELL ABART. I WAS NOT ABLE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE AT THAT POINT.
THE REAR CENTER PASSENGER'S LEFT SEAT BELT BUCKLE ANCHOR IS REVERSED MAKING IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO PROPERLY BUCKLE 3 PASSENGERS IN THE BACK SEAT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS MY CENTER PASSENGERS, FINDING IT A HERCULEAN FEAT WHEN SEATED, OFTEN DECLINE TO BUCKLE UP. I'VE INCLUDED TWO PHOTOS OF THIS BUCKLE SHOWING THIS CONDITION. AS SEEN WHEN BUCKLED W/O A PASSENGER, THE BELTS OVERLAP. BECAUSE OF THIS THE CENTER PASSENGER'S BODY PREVENTS ACCESS TO THE BUCKLE AS IT IS HIDDEN BEHIND THE STRAP OF THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER. I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA DESIGNED IT THIS WAY TO PROVIDE WIDER SEATING FOR THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER. HOWEVER, THIS DESIGN IS DANGEROUS AND IS UNACCEPTABLE AND WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO FATALITIES. ALSO I'M TOLD THAT THE HONDA ACCURA'S DESIGN IS CORRECT.
THE APPLE CARPLAY WILL DISENGAGE ENROUTE. ALSO, WILL NOT RESYNC AFTER CAR IS TURNED OFF AND TURNED ON AGAIN. HONDA SAYS THEY ARE AWARE OF IT, BUT NO FIX. POSSIBLE SAFETY ISSUE IF PERSON TRY'S TO UNHOOK AND REBOOK CARPLAY WHILE DRIVING.
CHECKED OIL BEFORE HONDA SERVICE OVER FILLED ON DIPSTICK STRONG GAS ODER IN OIL AND CABIN
"TAKATA RECALL" 2017 HONDA CRV WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE ON 4/11/18. THE SEAT BELTS DID NOT RETRACT. THE PASSENGER IN THE CAR STRUCK HER HEAD ON THE DASHBOARD OF THE VEHICLE. THIS CRV HAS BEEN IN THE REPAIR SHOP SINCE 4/17/18. INFORMED BY THE SERVICE PROVIDER THAT NONE OF THE SEAT BELTS RETRACT PROPERLY.
VEHICLE: 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING - 5 MILES WHEN PURCHASED ON 05/01/2017 - 2,000 MILES WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I AM AT ABOUT 6,000 MILES NOW. INITIALLY I NOTICED A CLICKING SOUND EMANATING FROM THE ENGINE GET LOUDER OVER TIME. ADDITIONALLY, IN THE WINTER, HEAT TOOK A LONG TIME TO COME ON. I WAS FOLLOWING A CRV FORUM (HONDACRVOWNERS.COM) AND NOTICED A LOT OF PEOPLE START MENTIONING FUEL IN THE OIL. THEN SAW NEWS ARTICLES ABOUT A HUGE CRV RECALL IN CHINA'S COLD CLIMATE AREAS WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I THEN BEGAN CHECKING THE OIL FREQUENTLY AND NOTICED A DEFINITE FUEL SMELL ON THE DIPSTICK AND RISING ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I HAVE NOT NOTICED A FUEL SMELL IN THE CABIN, FORTUNATELY, AS SOME HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT, BUT THIS IS NOT GOOD FOR AN ENGINE. TWO HONDA DEALERS HAVE TOLD ME THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE, BUT NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT AND TO CHECK THE OIL SINCE NO LIGHTS ARE ON AND SCANS SHOW NO PROBLEM. OF COURSE! NO PROBLEMS YET, BUT MOST DRIVERS DON'T CHECK THEIR OIL AND WON'T NOTICE A PROBLEM UNTIL THE ENGINE COMPLETELY FAILS AND PUTS THE OCCUPANTS' LIVES IN DANGER.
AFTER SMELLING STRONG ODOR OF GAS,(CAR IDLING) CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO CHECK OIL LEVEL. THE OIL LEVEL WAS OVER FULL AND SMELLED LIKE GAS . OTHER HONDA VEHICLES WHICH HAVE THE SAME 1.5T ENGINE HAVE REPORTED THE SAME ISSUE HERE IN THE STATES. I AM TOLD HONDA RECOMMENDS MONITORING THE OIL LEVEL AND CHANGING IT EVERY 500 MILES UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS REMEDIED. WHAT IF SOMEONE DOESN'T REALIZE THEIR OIL LEVEL IS OVERFULL AND THE OIL SYSTEM OVER PRESSURIZES OR THE GAS IGNITES INSIDE THE OIL SUMP WHILE DRIVING? AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM SOME HONDA CARS USING THIS SAME 1.5T ENGINES IN CANADA AND CHINA ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.
FUEL-OIL SMELL IN CABIN AND OUTSIDE THE CAR WHEN IT IS PARKED IN-DOOR AFTER DRIVE. FUEL IN OIL. THE OIL LEVEL EXCEEDS MAXIMUM. GASOLINE SMELL IN THE OIL. THE CAR DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION. RISKS AND POTENTIAL IMPACTS: THE ODOR CAUSES IRRITATION OF RESPIRATORY SYSTEM. IT CAN CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS. ACCORDING TO HONDA : "OVERFILLING THE ENGINE OIL CAN RESULT IN LEAKS AND ENGINE DAMAGE." THE DILUTED BY GASOLINE OR ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE OIL IMPACTS ENGINE WORK AND THE AIR TURBINE WHICH IS LUBRICATED AND COOLED BY ENGINE OIL. I AM AFRAID OF THE CAR ENGINE MAY STOP ON A ROAD CAUSING A COLLISION.
I BOUGHT THIS HONDA CRV 2017 AWD ON 04/01/2017 FROM HONDA FOLSOM. ON APRIL 24,2018, IT WOULD NOT START. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO JUMPSTART IT AND BROUGHT THIS TO THE DEALER IN FOLSOM. THEY CHANGED THE BATTERY ON APRIL 24, 2018. TODAY, MAY 30, 2018, IT DID NOT START AGAIN SO IT WAS JUMPSTARTED AGAIN AND BROUGHT THIS TO HONDA ROSEVILLE. THEY CHANGED AGAIN THE BATTERY. THEY SAID ALL THE ELECTRICAL ARE GOOD AND NO EXPLANATION GIVEN WHY THE BATTERY DON'T LAST. THESE 2 SITUATIONS, LUCKILY, HAPPENED IN MY GARAGE. WE DID NOT HAVE ANY SITUATION THAT COULD DISCHARGE THE BATTERY.
DURING THE FIRST OIL CHANGE WE REMOVED OVER 5 QUARTS OF LIQUID. THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES THAT THE CAR HOLDS ONLY 3.7 QUARTS OF OIL. WE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WE BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE 2017 HONDA CR-V. GAS IS GETTING INTO THE OIL. I AM NOW GETTING FREE OIL CHANGES, THEY STATED I SHOULD COME IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHENEVER THE LIQUID RISES ABOVE THE FILL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE MANAGED TO GET AN OIL CHANGE EVERY 7010 DAYS SINCE APRIL 12, 2018. THE LAST OIL CHANGE I HAD THERE WAS AT LEAST 1 QUART OF GAS IN THE OIL DRAINED OUT OF THE RESERVOIR. THAT WAS 10 DAYS AFTER THE LAST OIL CHANGE. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY TALKED TO MY CASE MANAGER SHE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NORMAL OPERATION AND HONDA IS NOT CONSIDERING THIS AN ISSUE. EVERYTHING I HAVE READ SO FAR STATES THAT EXCESS GAS IN THE OIL IS AN ISSUE AND VERY BAD FOR THE ENGINE. I AM CONCERNED THAT MOST CONSUMERS WHO PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA CR-V ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS ISSUE.
THERE IS CERTAINLY AN EXCESS AMOUNT OF GAS MIXED IN ENGINE OIL. ONLY FEW WEEKS AFTER OIL CHANGE, THE OIL LEVEL IS ALREADY 20 MM ABOVE THE MAX LINE. IT'S CERTAINLY A DESIGN FLAW AND I THINK HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MISTAKE AND THE CUSTOMERS. IT'S HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND HOPE THE RELEVANT RESOURCES CAN TAKE ACTION TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.
I HEARD THAT THERE IS OIL LEVEL INCREASE PROBLEM ON THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR'S ENGINE BECAUSE OF FUEL LEAK, SO I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL A FEW HUNDRED MILES AFTER CHANGING THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE MAXIMUM MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER PREVIOUSLY, COMPLAINING OF A SMELL OF GAS IN THE OIL WHEN I CHECKED IT INITIALLY, AND THEY SAID IT IS FINE, THAT NOTHING IS WRONG. BOTH TIMES OF CHECKING THE OIL, THE CAR WAS IN MY GARAGE, STATIONARY, ON LEVEL GROUND.
I STARTED MY CAR AND PUT GEAR SHIFT TO D POSITION AND MY (NEW 2017 CRV LX) STARTED DRIVING WHEN JUST HAD SHIFTER BUTTON FALL OFF, BROKEN. SIDE AFFECT IS THAT NOW I CANNOT GET THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION! WHEEL WON'T TURN TO THE "LOCK" POSITION SO I AM FORCED TO LEAVE THE KEY INSIDE UNTIL I GET IT FIXED! ANOTHER YOU-TUBE SHOWS ITS AN EASY FIX SO EVEN THOUGH ITS UNDER WARRANTY, I AM GOING TO PAY MY LOCAL MECHANIC TO FIX IT RATHER THAN HAVE TO DRIVE 70 MILES TO DEALER AND HAVE TO LEAVE IT ALL DAY. UGH! REALLY HONDA??????? //SEE OWNERS COMPLAINS UNDER THE VIDEO: HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=EZVUR2TMMDW TODAY IS SUNDAY AND TOMORROW IS MEMORIAL DAY, HOW CAN I GET IT FIXED IF REPAIR SERVICES ON DEALERSHIP DO NOT WORK?
I HAVE HAD THE BRAKES ENGAGE TWICE THROUGH THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES AROUND ME.DANGEROUS AS I COULD BE REAR ENDED.AND THE OIL LEVEL RISES WITH FUEL DILUTION AND GAS FUMES ENTER THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT.VEHICLE MISFIRED AND SHUTDOWN ON HIGHWAY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND BREATHING GAS FUMES.
OIL/DILUTION ON DIP STICK. GAS SMELL ON DIP STICK. OVERFILLED DIP STICK.
GAS SMELL IN CABIN OF CAR ON AND OFF FOR 3 MONTHS. TOOK CAR TO DEALER FOR CHECK. SERVICE REPORTED GAS IN OIL. HONDA AWARE OF PROBLEM . OIL CHANGE DONE AS PER HONDA RECOMMENDATION. NO SOLUTION TO GAS CONTAMINATING OIL IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE. GAS SMELL WAS PRESENT SOMETIMES WHILE RUNNING OTHER TIMES PRESENT ON ENTERING PARKED CAR.
I BOUGHT THIS 2017 CRV EXL-NAV AWD IN 05/2017. WE DID THE FIRST MAINTENANCE ON MARCH 17 TO CHANCE OIL AT 8000 MILES. THERE IS OIL LEAKAGE, I WILL TALK THIS ON ANOTHER COMPLAINT. I HEARD THAT THERE IS OIL EXCESSIVE PROBLEM ON THIS 1.5T ENGINE, SO I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL AT ABOUT 8800 MILES AND FOUND THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS MORE THAN 10MM HIGHER THAN THE MAXIMUM MARK ON THE LIPSTICK. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT IS FINE. I AM VERY UPSET WITH THEIR ANSWER. I HAVE ATTACHED THE PHOTO, THE OIL LEVEL IS EXCEEDING THE ORANGE PLASTIC TO THE METAL PART. ACTUALLY CRV HAS BEEN STOPPED FOR SALE IN CHINA FOR 2 MONTHS UNTIL HONDA INITIATE A RECALL AND EXTEND THE WARRANTY TO 6 YEARS. RELIABILITY IS THE MAIN REASON I BOUGHT HONDA, NOW I AM SO DISAPPOINTED. WILL NOT CONSIDER ANY HONDA UNLESS THEY OFFER A SATISFACTORY SOLUTION.
BOUGHT THIS 2017 CRV EXL-NAV AWD IN 05/2017. WE DID THE FIRST MAINTENANCE ON MARCH 17 TO CHANCE OIL IN THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FOUND THERE IS OIL LEAKAGE. THEY SCHEDULED A ANOTHER DAY TO FIX IT BY ADDING SOME SILICA GLUE UNDER WARRANTY. I CAN NOT BELIEVE A NEW CAR WITHIN 1 YEAR AND 8000 MILES HAS OIL LEAKING ISSUE. RELIABILITY IS THE MAIN REASON I BOUGHT HONDA, NOW I AM SO DISAPPOINTED.
THIS IS THE THIRD TIME BACK FOR REPAIRS AT THE DEALERS. MY PREVIOUS COMPLAIN WAS #11047836 WHEN THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED BY INSTALLING A NEW TRANSMISSION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS 2 WEEKS OLD ON 10/17/2017. ON 5/14/2018 WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER WITH A VERY NOISY SOUND WHILE DRIVING.. BOTH ON STREET AND HIGHWAY AT MODERATE AND HIGH SPEEDS. THE BEARINGS ON BOTH RIGHT AND LEFT WHEELS AND THE INTERMEDIATE BEARINGS TO THE FLY WHEEL HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 7 MONTHS OLD,
THE DISPLAY IN THE MIDDLE GOES BLANK WHILE I AM DRIVING A LOT. LAST TIME I WAS BACKING OUT WHEN IT DID WHICH CAUSE MY CAR TO HAVE SERIOUS SCRATCHES ON IT. AT THE SAME TIME THE BACK UP SEEMED NOT TO BE WORKING EITHER. MY SON MADE A VIDEO OF IT HAPPENING ONE TIME WHEN HE IS IN THE CAR. ALSO THE RADIO IS LOCK AND DOES NOT DISPLAY WHAT IS PLAYING LIKE IT USE TOO. ALSO SOMETIMES WHEN I AM SWITCHING LANE WITH MY BLINKER ON THE CAR WILL NOT LET ME DO IT AND ABRUPTLY SLOW DOWN EVEN IF THERE IS NOT OTHER CAR ON THE ROAD. I HAD A 2012 HONDA CRV THAT MY SON DRIVE AND NEVER HAD THESE PROBLEM. MY 2017 CRV TOURING IS BY FAR NOT AS WELL MADE SINCE I HAVE ALL THESE PROBLEMS ALREADY.
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO OIL DILUTION AND GAS FUME PROBLEM. *LD *JS
SOMETIMES SMELL OF GAS IN THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED AND SMELLS LIKE GAS
MY NEW 2017 HONDA CRV EX THAT ONLY HAS 6850 MILES DRIVEN ON IT HAS A TERRIBLE DEFECT WITH OIL DILUTION ISSUES DUE TO FUEL LEAKING INTO THE OIL PANS CAUSING OVERFLOW AND DILUTION TO THE OIL THAT IS SUPPOSED TO BE LUBRICATING THE ENGINE. THE OIL SMELLS VERY POTENT OF FUEL AND ALMOST 1 QUART OF EXTRA FLUID WAS DRAINED FROM THE OIL PAN WHEN TAKEN INTO THE DEALER AFTER REPORTING THE ISSUE. THE DEALER AGREED THAT THERE WAS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH FUEL DILUTING INTO THE OIL BUT WERE TOLD BY THE HONDA CORPORATE TECH LINE THAT THEY WERE TO JUST REPLACE THE OIL UNTIL A FIX COMES OUT. THE DEALER TECHNICIANS ASKED ABOUT CHANGING THE FUEL INJECTORS OR MAYBE A CYLINDER HEAD REPLACEMENT BUT WERE TOLD NOT TO DO ANYTHING. IT IS NOT SAFE TO RELEASE THESE CARS BACK TO THE OWNER KNOWING THERE IS AN DEFECT ISSUE THAT THEY DIDN'T EVEN REALLY ATTEMPT TO FIX THAT IS CAUSING INTERNAL ENGINE PARTS TO BREAK DOWN FASTER THAN NORMAL AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS DUE TO EVENTUAL BREAKDOWNS LEADING TO WRECKS. THE COMPANIES "FIX" IS TO GO IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE EVERY 500-1000 MILES EVEN THOUGH EXCESSIVE FUEL IS STILL MIXING WITH THE OIL. HONDA HAS REPORTED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING IN COLDER CLIMATES, BUT I AM STILL HAVING MAJOR ISSUES WITH THIS IN TENNESSEE WEATHER.
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE. *LD THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED THAT GASOLINE WAS MIXING WITH ENGINE OIL. *JS
THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. I OPENED THE TAILGATE TO STORE MY GOODS. I BEGAN TO CLOSE THE TAILGATE. THE TAILGATE WAS BEING CLOSED BY THE REAR SWITCH AND THE LEFT EDGE HIT MY HEAD. IT CONTINUED CLOSING FOR AN ADDITIONAL 1-2 SECONDS BEFORE REVERSING AND RE-OPENING. IT RESULTED IN A LACERATION AND BLEEDING THAT REQUIRED FIRST-AID.
DRIVER'S SEAT BELT CONNECTION FELL OUT OF THE WALL WHILE CAR WAS PARKED AND DRIVER WAS PUTTING ON SEAT BELT.
I HAVE FUEL IN MY OIL AND THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS OTHER REPORTS OF THE SAME. THERE IS ALSO A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT INVOLVING THE 2017-2018 HONDA CR-V AND CIVIC VEHICLES THAT ARE EXPERIENCING FUEL CONTAMINATION OF THE ENGINE OIL THAT COULD RESULT THE FAILURE OF ENGINE BEARING AND OTHER INTERNAL COMPONENTS. THIS MAY RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE OR STALLING WHILE DRIVING. JAPAN'S HONDA TO RECALL 350,000 OVER THIS ENGINE ISSUE. MIGLIACCIO & RATHOD LLP IS INVESTIGATING POTENTIAL CLAIMS OF FUEL DILUTION AND BUILDUP IN THE ENGINE OIL OF 2017-2018 HONDA CR-V AND CIVIC VEHICLES WITH THE 1.5L TURBO ENGINE. UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES, UN-COMBUSTED GASOLINE ACCUMULATES IN THE LUBRICANT OIL PAN AND EVAPORATES UNDER HEAT FROM THE ENGINE, THAT THEN ENDS UP BACK IN THE ENGINE COMBUSTION CHAMBER AS FUEL. IN COLD TEMPERATURES, HOWEVER, THE ENGINE MAY NOT WARM UP ENOUGH TO EVAPORATE THE UN-COMBUSTED GASOLINE. HONDA OWNERS ARE REPORTING THAT THIS LEADS TO GASOLINE DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL WHICH MANIFESTS IN A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE INSIDE THE CABIN, IN THE SHORT TERM, AND GASOLINE IN THE OIL THAT MAY LEAD TO ENGINE DAMAGE IN THE LONG TERM. SOME DRIVERS HAVE REPORTED THAT THE CAR'S CHECK-ENGINE LIGHT HAS SWITCHED ON AS RESULT. HONDA HAS ALREADY ISSUED A RECALL IN CHINA FOR THE SAME 2017-2018 CR-V'S AND CIVICS, BUT HAS YET TO ISSUE A RECALL HERE IN THE US.
THE DISPLAY IN MY 2017 HONDA CR V EX WILL START BEEPING AT RANDOM AND THE BRIGHTNESS WILL START GOING UP AND DOWN BY ITSELF. IT IS VERY DISTRACTING. I HAVE SEEN OTHERS COMPLAIN OF THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM, BUT I CALLED HONDA AND THEY SAID THAT DON'T HAVE A FIX. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE STATIONARY.
MY NEW HONDA CR-V 2017 HAS A SAFETY DEFECT. THE HEADLIGHTS FOG UP WHEN IT RAINS OR AFTER I WASH THE CAR. CONDENSATION IS FORMED INSIDE THE GLASS HEADLIGHTS MAKING VISIBILITY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY ON CLOUDY DAYS OR AFTER SUN SET, ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT. THIS HAPPENS WHETHER THE CAR IS STATIONARY OR MOVING WHILE DRIVING ON A RAINY DAY. I OBVIOUSLY CAN'T TAKE PICTURES WHILE I'M DRIVING, BUT I'VE PROVIDED A FEW PICTURES OF MY PROBLEM. I REPORTED THE ISSUE TO COGGIN HONDA HERE IN ORLANDO, WHERE WE PURCHASED THE CAR BUT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID NOT HELP.
THE VEHICLES OIL GAS A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL AND THE CRANKCASE APPEARS TO BE OVER FILLED . GASOLINE HAS MIGRATED TO THE ENGINE CRANKCASE. ORIGINAL OIL IN VEHICLE AT 5845 MILES. THE ODOR IS UNDER THE HOOD AND VERY STRONG AT OIL FILLER CAP AND ON THE OIL IN THE CRANKCASE.
FIVE TIMES THE BATTERY DRAINED COMPLETELY WITH NOTHING ON, AFTER SITTING UNUSED, GARAGED, OVER NIGHT OR AFTER ONE DAY UNUSED. AFTER THE SECOND INCIDENT THE DEALER REPLACED THE BATTERY. AFTER THE FOURTH INCIDENT, THE DEALER CHARGED THE BATTERY. AFTER THE FIFTH INCIDENT, ONE WEEK LATER, THE DEALER CHARGED THE BATTERY AND CLAIMED ONLY A .002 MILIAMP DRAW.
STRONG FUEL SMELL (MIX OF GAS AND OIL) COMING FROM ENGINE SINCE WE PURCHASED VEHICLE. IT'S BEEN INTO CERTIFIED DEALER FOR INSPECTIONS AND MINOR TWEAKS FOUR TIMES ALREADY AND HONDA IS UNABLE TO REPAIR IT AS THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO. WE HAVE TO DRIVE WITH WINDOWS OPEN AND PARK CAR OUTSIDE OF OUR GARAGE DUE TO THE FUMES. I'M NOW GETTING HEADACHES FROM LONGER DRIVES.
THE ANTI-COLLISION AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM INCORRECTLY ENGAGED WHEN APPROACHING A FLAT METAL PLATE IN THE PARKING LOT OF A SHOPPING CENTER. THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AT APPROX. 5-10 MPH WHEN IT SUDDENLY STARTED BEEPING, AND FLASHING THE "BRAKE" WARNING ALERT ON THE DRIVER'S DASHBOARD CONSOLE. I WAS DRIVING AND, NOT SEEING ANY PEOPLE OR APPROACHING VEHICLES OR ANYTHING ELSE AHEAD OF ME, DIDN'T KNOW WHY THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING WAS FLASHING A WARNING. BEFORE I HAD A CHANCE TO "GENTLY" BRAKE TO SEE WHAT THE SITUATION WAS, SUDDENLY THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM "VIOLENTLY" ENGAGED, BRINGING THE VEHICLE TO AN IMMEDIATE STOP JUST BEFORE THE METAL PLATE. PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHED PHOTOGRAPH OF THE METAL PLATE THAT I TOOK SEVERAL MINUTES LATER. THE BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE WHEN GOING BACK OVER THE PLATE IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION, OR WHEN ATTEMPTING TO DUPLICATE THE INCIDENT. THE INCIDENT HAPPENED ON MARCH 25, 2018 AT APPROXIMATELY 4:45 PM ARIZONA TIME. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER THE NEXT DAY TO REPORT THE INCIDENT. NO SERVICE MANAGER WAS AVAILABLE TO SPEAK WITH ME, AND THE RECEPTIONIST SAID THAT SHE WOULD LEAVE A MESSAGE WITH ONE OF THEM. I HAVE YET TO BE CALLED BACK, 4 WEEKS LATER. I WANT THE HONDA DEALER TO READ THE CODES FROM THE ONBOARD COMPUTER SYSTEM(S) TO 1) VERIFY THAT THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGED, AND 2) SEE IF THERE IS ANY SUPPORTING DATA FOR WHY THE SYSTEM INCORRECTLY ENGAGED. MORE IMPORTANTLY, I WANT TO REPORT THIS INCIDENT TO THE NHTSA. DOING AN INTERNET SEARCH TURNED UP SEVERAL OTHER PUBLIC REPORTS ON WEBSITES OF SIMILAR INCIDENTS. A FALSE POSITIVE FOR AN IMPENDING COLLISION WAS DETERMINED BY THE VEHICLE'S "SMART SYSTEM" ALGORITHMS, WHICH THEN TRIGGERED A PHYSICAL REACTION (AUTOMATIC INVOLUNTARY BRAKING). FORTUNATELY THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AT ONLY 5-10 MPH, RATHER THAN 45 MPH ON A CITY ROAD OR 65 MPH ON A HIGHWAY.
PURCHASED CAR 1/18. TOOK 10 DAY VACATION CAR WAS PARKED DURING THAT PERIOD. CAR BATTERY WAS DEAD WHEN WE RETURNED. HAD AAA JUMP CAR AND TOOK TO DEALER. BATTERY CHECKED AND TOLD BY DEALER IT WAS FINE 6 DAYS LATER BATTERY DEAD HAD HONDA SERVICE TOW CAR TO DEALER. HAD FOUND HONDA TSB 17-032 ONLINE DESCRIBING A BATTERY DRAIN FROM VSA MODULATOR. MADE COPY FOR DEALER BECAUSE THEY WERE 'UNAWARE OF PROBLEM' ASKED THEM TO FOLLOW THE TSB SOFTWARE UPGRADE PROCEDURE WHICH THEY DID BUT WHEN THEY TESTED BATTERY THERE WAS STILL A DRAIN SO THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND INFORMED ME I NEED TO DRIVE CAR EVERDAY TO KEEP IT CHARGED, THIS IS OUR SECOND CAR AND IS NOT DRIVEN EVERYDAY AND WE TRAVEL WHICH MEANS THE CAR MAY NOT BE DRIVEN FOR 10 DAYS OR MORE THE SERVICE ADVISOR INDICATED THAT WE NEED TO ACQUIRE A BATTERY CHARGER BECAUSE MOST LIKELY THE BATTERY WOULD BE DEAD. IT SEEMS THAT THE 2017 CRV HAS AN ELECTRIC BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM. IT PULLS ON THE BATTERY EVEN WHEN THE IGNITION IS OFF. IS HONDA GOING TO ISSUE A RECALL ON THIS PROBLEM. EVERYTIME I GET IN THE CAR I WONDER IF THE CAR WILL START AND THIS AN UNCOMFORTABLE FEELING FOR A BRAND NEW CAR WITH ONLY 540 MILES ON IT.
OIL DILUTION,UNBURNT FUEL IS GETTING BUY THE PISTON RINGS AND IS GETTING INTO THE OIL SUMP,WHICH IS HAVING A NEGATIVE EFFECT ON THE LUBRICATING PROPERTIES OF MOTOR OIL.I HAD MY FIRST OIL CHANGED AT MY HONDA DEALER 5,271 MILES ON ODOMETER ON 10/25/2017 AFTER DRIVING 2,554 MILES AFTER OIL CHANGE I NOTICED AFTER CHECKING OIL LEVEL ON DIPSTICK THAT IT WAS OVER FULL. I AGAIN HAD THE OIL CHANGED AT THE SAME DEALER ON 03/19/2018 5QTS OF OIL REMOVED ,WHEN THE CAPACITY IS 3.7 QTS WITH OIL PLUS FILTER CHANGE.I AM HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM AGAIN LESS THAN MONTH LATER WITH UNBURNT FUEL GETTING INTO MOTOR OIL AND DILUTING MOTOR OIL ,WELL ABOVE THE FULL MARK ON DIPSTICK 04/18/2018
A SENSOR FAILURE DISPLAYS ON THE DASHBOARD SAYING THAT SOME DRIVER ASSIST SYSTEMS CANNOT OPERATE: RADAR OBSTRUCTED. HONDA OF FREDERICK TELLS ME IT'S A WEATHER RELATED ISSUE AND MANUFACTURING ISSUE THAT THEY CANNOT DO ANYMORE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. HAVE HAPPEED 4 TIMES; RECORDED 3 TIMES: DRIVING IN RAIN ON HIGHWAY, DRIVING IN SNOW IN TOWN, DRIVING NEXT DAY AFTER SNOW BUT NOTHING ON THE ROAD ON HIGHWAY. ALL STRAIGHT WAYS. HAVE INVOICES FROM DEALER.
THE RADIO IS ALWAYS MESSED UP. IT SAYS THERE'S A CALL WHEN THERE IS NOT; IT SAYS PHONE NOT CONNECTED, WHICH IT IS; IT PLAYS THE RADIO WHEN THE SCREEN IS COMPLETELY BLANK, IT DOESN'T TURN UP OR DOWN SOMETIMES. I HAVE TWO VIDEOS BUT AM NOT ABLE TO CAN SEND TO YOU. 12/11/2017, 12/18/2017, 01/17/2018, 01/29/2018, 04/07/2018
DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEED. SUDDENLY VEHICLE BEGINS TO VIOLENTLY HESITATE AND THEN SLOWS AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE (MORE THAN 10 MPH). INDICATORS READ THAT ALL SYSTEMS HAVE FAILED. PULLED OVER AND SHUT VEHICLE DOWN. WOULD NOT RESTART. CALLED EMERGENCY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE FOR TOWING TO DEALERSHIP. WAS TOLD BY DEALER THAT HONDA STATED IT IS A COMMON ISSUE IN COLD WEATHER (I LIVE AND PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN NORTHERN WI - LAME EXCUSE. WHEY SELL THEM HERE IF THEY DON'T WORK IN THE COLD). THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE FUEL INJECTORS AND VARIOUS OTHER ENGINE PARTS. I ALSO HAD TO HAVE THE SATELLITE RADIO RECEIVER REPLACED (IT BURNT OUT). THERE WAS FUEL IN THE ENGINE OIL. ALL THIS WITH LESS THAN 4,000 MILES ON THE 2017 HONDA CR-V. NO LONGER HAVE CONFIDENCE IN THE VEHICLE. IT RUNS NOW, BUT THE ENGINE IS MUCH LOUDER WITH A NOTICABLE CLICKING NOISE THAT WASN'T THERE WHEN I FIRST PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I WAS PLANNING A MAIDEN VOYAGE FROM WI TO SEATTLE, WA (TO VISIT ELDERLY MOTHER WHO LIVES THERE) BUT LOST CONFIDENCE IN THE VEHICLE'S RELIABILITY. WHAT IS MY FIX FOR THIS? DEALERSHIP BALKED AT THE SUGGESTION OF REPLACING THE VEHICLE WITH ANOTHER ONE. OVERALL, I THINK THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE TO HAVE AN AUTOMOBILE COMPLETELY FAIL IN TRAFFIC. LIMPING OFF THE ROADWAY AT A MAXIMUM POSSIBLE SPEED OF 10 MPH IN HIGHWAY TRAFFIC CONDITIONS IS A RECIPE FOR DISASTER AND THE MAKINGS FOR POSSIBLE FATAL CONSEQUENCES. HONDA SHOULD BE LOOKING SERIOUSLY INTO THIS ISSUE AND NOT MAKING LAME EXCUSES LIKE THIS HAPPENS TO THE CR-V IN COLD WEATHER ([XXX]). THEY SHOULD ALSO BE PROVIDING COMPENSATION TO OWNERS WHO PURCHASED THESE LEMONS IN GOOD FAITH EXPECTING THE DEPENDABILITY OF A BRAND NEW VEHICLE, PAYING (IN MY CASE) AT LEAST $29,000.00 FOR THAT EXPECTATION AND NOT ENDING UP WITH SOMETHING THAT DUMPS FUEL INTO THE ENGINE OIL AND THREATENS THE SAFETY OF ME AND MY (3) PASSENGERS AT THE TIME PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
OIL DILUTION DIAGNOSED BY DEALER AFTER MULTIPLE VISITS, NO HEAT IN COLD WEATHER, DISPLAYS AND AUDIOS GOING HAYWIRE WHILE DRIVING, STALLED 6 TIMES WHILE BACKING UP ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, SAFETY FEATURES NOT WORKING PROPERLY WHILE DRIVING I.E. ALERTING THAT A CAR IS NEXT TO YOU WHILE DRIVING CITY AND COUNTRY, NO ALERT OR DRIVER ASSIST SAFETY FEATURE WHEN A CAR PULLED OUT DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME CROSSING TRAFFIC WHEN ANTILOCK BRAKES WORKED PROPERLY AND GOT STOPPED WITHIN 3 FEET OF OTHER VEHICLE, CAR LOCKED ME INSIDE AFTER DRIVING TO WORK.....I HAVE AVAILABLE VIDEOS OF MANY OF THESE ISSUES AVAILABLE AND THEY'VE BEEN FORWARDED TO HONDA CASE #08447969 AND THE DEALERSHIP. ALSO FINALLY HAVE DOCUMENTATION FROM THE DEALER DIAGNOSING THE OIL DILUTION. THEY TOLD ME TO DRIVE THE CAR AND BRING IT IN EVERY TIME THE DIP STICK GOES ABOVE THE FILL LINE. NO OTHER ISSUES WERE ADDRESSED AND SHOW AS UNDIAGNOSED
OIL IS BEING DILUTED WITH GASOLINE.
HESITATION ON ACCELERATION. THE SLOWER THE CAR IS MOVING, THE WORSE THE HESITATION. THIS CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY MAKING A LEFT TURN IN TRAFFIC.
MY VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT A AIRPORT PARKING LOT FOR 13 DAYS DURING A TRAVEL TRIP. THE BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DEAD AND WAS STARTED WITH A JUMP. NO LIGHTS, ACT WERE LEFT ON DURING THIS PERIOD.
WAS DRIVING NORMALLY WHEN ABS, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, LANE KEEPING ASSIST, AUTOMATIC EMERGENCY BREAKING, AND BREAKING SYSTEM "PROBLEM" LIGHTS LIT UP ALL AT ONCE. LIMPED THE CAR HOME.
VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW IN 8/17 AND HAS 8900 MILES. TOURING TRIM WITH 1.5L TURBO ENGINE AND AWD. OIL LEVEL HAS INCREASED WELL ABOVE FULL MARK AFTER BOTH OF TWO OIL CHANGES DONE SINCE PURCHASED AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF FUEL. LAST OIL CHANGE WAS DONE JUST 375 MILES BACK. DEALER DENIES THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE, EVEN THOUGH THERE ARE NUMEROUS REPORTS AND NHTSA COMPLAINTS ON RECORD. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT POSSIBLE ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO INADEQUATE LUBRICATION / POSSIBLE COLLISION DUE TO ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. WILL CONTINUE TO FOLLOWUP WITH DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND DOCUMENT ACTIONS TAKEN IN ORDER TO SUPPORT ANY FUTURE LEGAL ACTION TO REMEDY THIS SERIOUS DEFECT.
THE NEW GENERATION OF CRV VEHICLES HAVE A SIGNIFICANT PROBLEM REGARDING OIL DILUTION WITH FUEL AND OTHER LIQUIDS. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND CAN RESULT IN PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE AS WELL AS OTHER PROBLEMS. WE SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHANGE OUR OIL EVERY 500 MILES JUST TO MAKE SURE IT ISN'T TOO HIGH. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM, YET THEY ARE SLACKING ON FINDING A FIX. THIS PROBLEM MAY POTENTIALLY BE AFFECTING HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES. CHINA ALREADY HALTED SALES OF CRVS UNTIL THEY FIX THIS PROBLEM. DEAR HONDA, FIX THIS PROBLEM! THE LONGER YOU SLACK, THE MORE CUSTOMERS (LIKE ME) YOU WILL LOSE IN THE FUTURE. IF YOU VALUE YOUR REPUTATION AS A RELIABLE CAR MAKER, THEN DO YOUR DUE DILIGENCE AND GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED.
THE DRIVER'S SEAT SIDE AIR BAG LOOKS LIKE IT DEPLOYED OR OR WAS DEFLATED OR MALFUNCTION WITH NO ACTION TAKEN WHEN WE NOTICED AS WE GOT INTO THE CAR THE NEXT DAY. THE SEAT WITH THE SIDE AIRBAG WAS DEFLATED OR DEFORMED OR SOMETHING. MY WIFE WAS KNOWS IT WAS NOT LIKE THIS BECAUSE SHE WOULD HAVE NOTICED AS DID IMMEDIATELY WHEN SHE SAT DOWN.
THE OIL IN THE CRV IS DILUTED WITH GASOLINE WHICH WAS DISCOVERED ON THE FIRST OIL CHANGE FOR A NEW VEHICLE. THE VOLUME DRAINED SIGNIFICANTLY EXCEEDED THE NORMAL FULL OIL CAPACITIES. THE PROBLEM WAS REPORTED TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER WHICH WAS SERVICED ON 2/19/18. THE DEALER CHANGED THE OIL ONCE AGAIN, WHIICH WAS ALSO DILUTED. ALL INJECTORS WERE REPLACED AT THAT TIME. ON OR ABOUT 3/28/18 OUR LOCAL SERVICE FACILITY, PAT'S AUTOMOTIVE IN CARIBOU, ME, CHECKED THE OIL WHICH WAS AGAIN OVERFILLED AND CONTAINED GASOLINE. HONDA WAS AGAIN CONTACTED AND ON 4/3/18 THE OIL WAS CHECKED BY THE DEALER, WAS OVER THE FULL MARK AGAIN, AND WAS DILUTED WITH GASOLINE. THE OIL WAS CHANGED ONCE AGAIN. PER THE DEALER, HONDA TECHLINE WAS CONTACTED AND THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THE ISSUE AT THIS TIME AND TO CHANGE THE OIL AS NEEDED. THE ISSUE IS VERY CONCERNING AS THE ENGINE OF A NEW VEHICLE DURING THE BREAK IN PERIOD THAT HAS GASOLINE DILUTING AND DISPLACING THE OIL CAN ONLY RESULT IN A SHORTENED ENGINE LIFE.
OIL OVERFILLING AND SMELL OF GASOLINE ON DIPSTICK. DEALER CHANGES OIL AND SAYS THERE IS NO PROBLEM BUT A FEW HUNDRED MILES LATER THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURS. THIS IS CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE.
I PURCHASED A NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V ON 1/19/18 AND ON 1/29/18 THE CAR STARTED BEEPING AND THE FOLLOWING ERROR MESSAGES APPEARED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON CITY STREETS: ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE SYSTEM PROBLEM, AND BRAKE SYSTEM. THE BRAKES FELT LESS RESPONSIVE AND SQUISHY. ON 1/29/18 I CONTACTED SUPERSTITION SPRINGS HONDA (WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR) IMMEDIATELY. THEY UPDATED AND RESET THE RADAR SYSTEM BUT THAT DIDN'T HELP. I LEFT MY CAR 2 DAYS SO THEY COULD REPLACE THE RADAR AND THE CAR WORKED FINE UNTIL 3/31/18 WHEN AGAIN IT BEEPED, THE MESSAGES APPEARED AGAIN, AND THE BRAKES FELT LESS RESPONSIVE AGAIN. I'LL TAKE THE CAR BACK AGAIN TOMORROW (CLOSED TODAY FOR EASTER) BUT I'M VERY CONCERNED THIS WILL BE A CONTINUED PROBLEM ON A CAR THAT I'VE HAD LESS THAN 3 MONTHS.
ENGINE OIL IS OVERFILLING AND BEING DILUTED WITH GAS. STRONG GAS SMELL. WHEN CHANGING OIL, MORE THAN WHAT WAS NEEDED TO FILL ENGINE OIL TO FULL
MARCH 14,2018 DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 15-20 MPH IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD,APPROACHING A RAILROAD TRACK, VEHICLE SUDDENLY CAME TO AN ABRUPT STOP. BRAKE COLLISION MITIGATION FLASHED ON DASH. SCREEN INSTRUCTIONS TO PLACE VEHICLE IN PARK. I TURNED ON EMERGENCY FLASHERS FOR SAFETY. ONCE IN PARK AND RETURNED TO DRIVE, ABLE TO CONTINUE. MY RIGHT ANKLE SPRAINED DUE TO FORCE OF STOP WHILE PRESSING ON ACCELERATOR. MY TEEN IN THE BACK SEAT SUFFERED WHIPLASH. THANKFULLY NO CAR IMMEDIATELY BEHIND US. SINCE THIS TIME, I TURN OFF THE COLLISION BRAKE MITIGATION EACH TIME I START THE VEHICLE. FEARFUL OF THE SAME ACTION OCCURRING AGAIN! DEALERSHIP HAS RUN DIAGNOSTICS BUT HAS NO SOLUTION! NO ACCIDENT REPORT FILED.
THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE'S ALL EXPERIENCE A COOLANT HEATING UP UNDER 32DEGREES F PROBLEM. AT IDLE THE TEMPERATURE COOLS DOWN AND HEATER DOES NOT SUPPLY WARM AIR. ALSO THE ENGINE OIL IS BEING DILUTED BY AN OVERLY RICH MIXTURE CAUSING UNBURNED GAS TO ENTER THE CRANKCASE DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL AND CAUSING ENGINE DAMAGE. DEALER HAS NO CLUE WHEN I TOOK IT IN TO WHY SO I HAVE TO CHANGE OIL EVE3RY 1000 MILES TO PROTECT THE ENGINE
WE PURCHASED OUR HONDA CRV EX-L IN OCTOBER OF 2017, WITHIN 5 MONTHS WE NOTICED A STRONG GASOLINE SMALL IN OUR CABIN. ONE DAY I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL BY PULLING THE DIPSTICK AND NOTICED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS 1 FULL INCH ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE OIL ON THE DIPSTICK REEKED OF GAS AND WAS VERY DARK AND WATERY. I IMMEDIATELY DID A GOOGLE SEARCH OF THIS ISSUE, KNOWING THAT OUR LAST OIL CHANGE WAS LESS THAN 3,000 MILES AGO FROM OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND I WAS SHOCKED WITH THE RESULTS. THOUSANDS OF OWNERS WITH THE 2017-2018 CRV WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBO ENGINE ARE HAVING THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE. THE ISSUE IS CALLED OIL DILUTION AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS IS GETTING INTO THE OIL BUT THE REASONS ARE UNKNOWN. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND HAD MY CAR IN THE NEXT DAY. THEY CLAIMED THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN ANYTHING LIKE THIS BEFORE AS MY OIL HAD SO MUCH GASOLINE IN IT THAT IT POURED OUT LIKE WATER. THEY SCHEDULED A CALL WITH HONDA ENGINEERS THE FOLLOWING MONDAY AND THEY WERE ADVISED TO CHANGE THE OIL AND DRIVE THE CAR AGAIN. THEY DID SO AND THE GAS VOLUME FILLED UP VERY QUICKLY IN THE NEW OIL SO THE NEXT STEP WAS TO REPLACE THE FUEL INJECTORS. BASED ON MY RESEARCH ONLINE MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVE HAD THE SAME PROCEDURE PERFORMED WHICH DIDN'T FIX THE ISSUE. HOWEVER THE INJECTORS WERE REPLACED ON MY CAR AND THE VEHICLE WAS GIVEN BACK TO ME, CLAIMED TO HAVE BEEN FULLY FIXED. NEEDLESS TO SAY LESS THAN 2 WEEKS AFTER I GOT MY VEHICLE BACK I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AND ONCE AGAIN IT'S WELL ABOVE THE FULL MARK WITH A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE. I'VE CALLED HONDA CORPORATE AND THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE JUST PLAIN SUCKS. LACK OF EMPATHY, LACK OF ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF THIS BEING A WIDESPREAD ISSUE AND NO RESOLUTION OF CONCERNS. I'M CURRENTLY FIGHTING WITH THEM, PLEADING TO GET A EXTENSION ON THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AS THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT ENGINE DAMAGE HAS ALREADY OCCURRED.
I WAS EXITING THE FREEWAY EARLY IN THE MORNING, STILL DARK, AND WITHOUT WARNING THE CAR APPLIED THE BRAKES. THERE WAS NO ONE OR OBSTACLE IN FRONT OF ME AND FORTUNATELY NO ONE BEHIND ME. THE BRAKES RELEASED AS SUDDENLY AS THEY APPLIED AND ALL RETURNED TO NORMAL.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WITH A LOW OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE THE VEHICLE FAILED TO REACH OPERATING TEMPERATURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEFROSTER FAILED TO OPERATE CORRECTLY AS THE WINDOWS AND WINDSHIELD EXPERIENCED INTERNAL FROST AND FREEZING ON THE INSIDE. (LUTHER BROOKDALE HONDA 6800 BROOKLYN BLVD, BROOKLYN CENTER, MN 55429 (612) 424-7830) WAS CONTACTED AND NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE THERMOSTAT WAS REPLACED HOWEVER, THE FIX FAILED TO REMEDY THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO CONTACTED AND CASE NUMBER: [XXX] WAS OPENED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,800. *TT INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TT
MY 2017 HONDA CR-V IT'S A NEW BROCHE WITH ONLY 3,800 MILES AND I'M VERY CONCERNED ABOUT THE OIL LEVEL RAISING DRASTICALLY, SO BAD THAT I HAD TO DO AN OIL CHANCE AT ONLY 3,000 MILES WHEN THE FIRST SERVICE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE DONE AT 5,000 MILES. IT'S BEEN 800 MILES SINCE THE OIL CHANGE AND THE OIL LEVEL IS WELL ABOVE THE SECOND MARK ON THE DIPSTICK WITH A STRONG GASOLINE ODOR, YES, FOR THE LITTLE EXPERIENCE I HAVE WITH VEHICLES I'M MORE THAN SURE THIS ENGINE IS MIXING UP GASOLINE WITH THE OIL, REASON WHY THE OIL LEVEL GOES UP AND LOOKS THINNER THAN NORMAL ALMOST LIKE WATER. MY CONCERN IS THAT IF THE OIL DELUDE DRASTICALLY THE ENGINE EVENTUALLY WILL FAIL FOR LACK OF LUBRICATION, AND THE WHOLE POWERTRAIN WILL BE DAMAGE! HONDA NEEDS TO FIND A SOLUTION TO THIS ISSUES ASAP OR RISK MANY CARS NEEDING A NEW ENGINE SOON! MANY PEOPLE IT'S HAVING THIS ISSUES WITH OIL DILUTION AND HEAT NOT WORKING PROPERLY PLUS AN STRONG GAS SMELL IN THE CABIN AND OIL COMPARTMENT!! I DRIVE MY CAR APPROXIMATELY 20 MILES A DAY MIXED DRIVING, HIGHWAY AND CITY!!
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 65-70 MPH, THE BRAKE MITIGATION SYSTEM SUDDENLY ACTIVATED ABRUPTLY APPLYING THE BRAKES TO STOP THE VEHICLE ERRONEOUSLY AND CAUSING THE DRIVER TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND SPIN OUT BEFORE CRASHING INTO A GUARD RAIL. DURING THE CRASH, THE FRONT END SUSTAINED SIGNIFICANT DAMAGE BUT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT INDICATED NO OTHER VEHICLES WERE PRESENT WHEN THE MITIGATION SYSTEM ERRONEOUSLY ACTIVATED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED NECK BACK AND CHEST INJURIES AND THE OCCUPANT SEATED IN THE REAR PASSENGER SEAT SUSTAINED NECK, BACK AND FRONT TORSO INJURIES. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT REQUIRED. A POLICE REPORT WAS TAKEN AT THE SCENE AND THE VEHICLE WAS STILL DRIVABLE. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT YET NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,000.
MY CAR IS A 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBOCHARGED ENGINE AND 3200 MILES. ON 3/18/2018 I WAS DRIVING AT 70MPH ON INTERSTATE 180 IN PENNSYLVANIA WHEN THE CAR SUDDENLY SLOWED, LOST POWER, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND MULTIPLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS REPORTED MALFUNCTIONS IN THE DASH DISPLAY. THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE HONDA DEALER AND DIAGNOSED WITH EXCESS GAS (APPROXIMATELY ONE QUART) IN THE OIL. THE OIL AND FILTER WAS CHANGED AS A TEMPORARY SOLUTION, AND A TECH LINE CASE (REF # 4089104) WAS OPENED WITH HONDA. I WAS TOLD AT THIS TIME THERE IS NO PERMANENT RECALL OR FIX. I WAS ADVISED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM IN COLD CLIMATES WHERE THE CAR IS USED FOR SHORT DRIVES AND DOES NOT WARM UP COMPLETELY. SINCE THEN I HAVE LEARNED THAT ALL CRVS WITH THE 1.5 LITER TURBOCHARGED ENGINE HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN CHINA FOR THE SAME PROBLEM.
I BOUGHT A NEW 2017 HONDA CRV IN MAY, 2017. IMMEDIATELY I NOTICED I WASN'T GETTING GOOD MILEAGE AND STARTED CHECKING IT THE OLD FASHIONED WAY. I'M ONLY GETTING BETWEEN 16-18 MPG (I HAVE ALL RECEIPTS) AND THE DASH SAYS I'M GETTING 23 (WHICH I'M NOT). THE DEALER NOR NATIONAL HONDA WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY SAY THEY DON'T FIND A PROBLEM. ALSO MY BRAKES MAKE NOISES AND I WAS TOLD THE CALIPERS JUST OFF AND IT DOESN'T POSE A SAFETY HAZARD. I WOULD NEVER BE ABLE TO SELL IT WITH THAT KIND OF NOISE. NO ONE WILL DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. I TRIED TO GO ON THE BBB WEB-SITE BUT IT SAYS THE HONDA HAS TO BE 2012 OR OLDER. WHY? I FEEL STUCK AND WILL HAVE TO GO TO THE MEDIA IF I CAN'T GET THIS RESOLVED. THE DEALER SHOULD BY MY CAR BACK UNDER THE LEMON LAW. SOMEONE HELP ME.
GAS IS LEAKING INTO CRANKCASE AND DILUTING THE ENGINE OIL THEREFORE RAISING THE OIL LEVEL ABOVE THE MAX FILL LINE. ENGINE OIL HAS GAS ODOR AND OIL SEEMS THINNER DUE TO DILUTION WITH GASOLINE.
THE OIL LEVEL IN THE CRANK CASE CONTINUALLY RISES AND SMELLS STRONGLY OF GASOLINE. WITHIN 5000 MILES, AND 40% OIL LIFE ACCORDING TO THE MAINTENANCE MINDER, IT HAD RISEN WELL ABOVE THE MAX LINE ON THE DIP STICK.
I CHECKED THE LEVEL OF THE OIL ON THE DIPSTICK AND THE LEVEL SHOWS AS BEING HIGH, PAST THE 'FULL" REFERENCE POINT WITH A FEW MILLIMETERS. ALSO, THE OIL HAS A STRONG GAS ODOR. THE MILEAGE ON THE ENGINE IS 8454, AND THE FIRST OIL CHANGE WAS PERFORMED AT 6547 MILES, 2 MONTHS AGO.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES DID NOT WORK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED BEFORE OR AFTER THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NORM REEVES HONDA SUPERSTORE IRVINE IN IRVINE, CA WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,980.
I PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA CRV-EX WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE IN NOVEMBER 2017 AND PLAN TO GIVE THIS CAR TO MY NIECE AS A GRADUATION PRESENT IN 2019. I TOOK IT FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE, AT 137 MILES, AND THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS GASOLINE IN THE OIL. AFTER THE OIL CHANGE, I RESEARCHED THE ISSUE AND DISCOVERED THAT MANY PEOPLE (2017 HONDA CRV OWNERS WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE) IN THE USA HAD THIS PROBLEM. THE DETAILS ARE LISTED IN THE HONDA FORUMS AND ON EDMUNDS. I ALSO SAW THAT HONDA WAS RECALLING 350K 2017-2018 CRVS WITH THE 1.5 TURBO ENGINE , IN CHINA, AS THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. IT APPEARS THAT THE FUEL EJECTORS WERE SUPPLYING TOO MUCH GASOLINE AND THE RESIDUAL GASOLINE WAS LEAKING AROUND THE CYLINDERS INTO THE OIL. I REQUESTED HONDA-USA TO GET ACCESS TO THIS SOFTWARE UPDATE VIA MY LOCAL DEALER (BOCH HONDA WEST IN WESTFORD, MA). IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE SOFTWARE UPDATE IS AVAILABLE. HONDA-USA SENT ME A RESPONSE INDICATING THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE AND I SHOULD GO BACK TO THE DEALER. I HAVE CALLED THE DEALER, AGAIN, BUT THEY CANNOT DO MUCH WITHOUT THE SOFTWARE UPDATE. I TOLD HONDA-USA THAT THIS PROBLEM IS VERY CONCERNING FOR THE FUTURE OF THE ENGINE REMINDED THEM THAT THEIR DEALER FOUND THE PROBLEM OF GASOLINE IN THE ENGINE AND THAT BOTH I AND THE DEALER WERE CONCERNED. MY CASE NUMBER WITH HONDA IS 07116734. SOME OF THE WEB SITES (LINKS) THAT FURTHER DEFINE THE PROBLEM ATE AS FOLLOW: 1) HTTPS://WWW.REUTERS.COM/ARTICLE/US-HONDA-CHINA-RECALL/HONDA-STOPS-SELLING-NEW-CR-VS-IN-CHINA-AFTER-RECALL-PLAN-REJECTED-IDUSKCN1GE1P8 2) HTTP://WWW.CRVOWNERSCLUB.COM/FORUMS/14-PROBLEMS-ISSUES/170193-POTENTIAL-MAJOR-ISSUE-2017-CR-V-GASOLINE-GETS-INTO-ENGINE-OIL-TANK.HTML 3) HTTPS://FORUMS.EDMUNDS.COM/DISCUSSION/50438/HONDA/CR-V/NEW-CR-V-COLD-WEATHER-RUNS-RICH-GAS-IN-OIL-MULTIPLE-COMPLAINTS
2017 HONDA CRV TOURING MODEL CAR WOULD NOT START TWICE IN THE FIRST YEAR. SYSTEM SEEMS TO HAVE SOME KIND OF DRAIN ON THE BATTERY WHEN THE CAR IS OFF. FIRST TIME, THE CAR WAS NOT TURNED ON FOR 3 DAYS BEFORE TRYING TO START IT. THE BATTERY WAS BAD SO THE DEALER REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY. NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED 6 MONTHS LATER, THE CAR WAS NOT TURNED ON FOR 1 DAY. BATTERY TESTED FINE AND THE DEALER SAID THERE IS NO PARISITIC DRAW OR ANY OTHER PROBLEM. WITH MY PERSISTENCE, DEALER DID A SYSTEM UPDATE. IT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR THIS TO HAPPEN IN THE FIRST YEAR OF HAVING A CAR. PLENTY OF 2017 CRV OWNERS ARE SAYING THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO THEM. IT'S ALL OVER THE INTERNET. HONDA MUST FIND A SOLUTION AND ISSUE A RECALL. OTHERWISE, THIS CAR MUST BE A LEMON.
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES STATING THAT THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY DURING AN ACCIDENT. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED HE HAD BADLY BRUISED RIBS ON THE LEFT SIDE FROM THE SEAT BELT. *JS
PERSISTENT GAS FUME ODOR INSIDE THE CAR
THIS VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO PROPERLY HEAT UP THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO A POOR THERMOSTAT ENGINE. THE SUV TAKES A LONG TIME TO WARM UP WITHIN COLDER NORTHERN CLIMATES AND WILL NOT DISTRIBUTE THE NECESSARY CABIN HEAT. DANGEROUS IN COLD CLIMATES FOR CHILDREN AND ELDERLY IN THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY WHEN AFTER 10-15 MINUTES OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS STILL BLOWING COLD AIR OUT OF THE HEAT. HONDA CLAIMS THAT THE ISSUE IS BECAUSE THE ENGINE IS TOO EFFICIENT.
I PURCHASED A 2017 CRV FROM ASHLAND HONDA AND TOYOTA IN ASHLAND, WI IN AUGUST 2017. ON FEBRUARY 23, 2018, MY CAR WHICH HAS 5500 MILES ON IT, STARTED MAKING A HORRIBLE NOISE AND BEGAN LOSING POWER WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY. THE NOISE CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE WEEKEND. WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH ASHLAND HONDA AND TOYOTA TO SERVICE THE CALL. HONDA CORPORATE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER (JERRY) AT ASHLAND HONDA AND TOYOTA DETERMINED THROUGH VIDEO CHATS AND CONFERENCE CALLS THAT THE CAMS WERE DESTROYED IN MY ENGINE. THEY BELIEVE THIS HAD TO DO WITH FUEL AND OIL MIXING AND GETTING INTO THE ENGINE. HONDA REQUESTED THAT ASHLAND HONDA REPLACE THE HEAD OF THE ENGINE. THEY HAVE NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL AND OIL MIXING AND DESTROYING THE ENGINE. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID BECAUSE THE GOVERNMENT IS INVOLVED DUE TO EMISSIONS, THIS ISSUE WILL BE CONTINUING, AND AT THIS TIME THERE IS NO FIX. HE ALSO STATED THAT CORPORATE INFORMED HIM THIS WAS A REGIONAL ISSUE DUE TO OUR CLIMATE, AND THEY ARE CURRENTLY TRYING TO FIGURE OUT A SOFTWARE FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. NO RESOLUTION AT THIS POINT. CORPORATE FURTHER STATED THAT THEY ARE SEEING THIS ISSUE WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BETWEEN 10 AND 30 DEGREES. I WAS OFFERED A 100,000 EXTENDED WARRANTY AND RECOMMENDED THAT I GO TO THE DEALER EVERY 500 MILES TO GET AN OIL CHANGE TO SEE IF FUEL IS MIXING WITH THE OIL. SHOCKED AT THE LACK OF RESOLUTION, I ASKED THE SERVICE MANAGER IF HONDA CORPORATE WAS COMFORTABLE GIVING ME MY CAR BACK AFTER THE CAMS WERE REPLACED WITH NO RESOLUTION, AND HE SAID YES. I DO NOT BELIEVE THIS IS ETHICAL AT ALL FOR HONDA TO NOT HAVE A FIX TO AN ENGINE PROBLEM THAT COULD ENDANGER MYSELF AND/OR MY FAMILY. THE CAR ENGINE IS BEING REPLACED WHEN PARTS ARE DELIVERED. AGAIN, NO RESOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM WITH THE OIL AND GAS COMBINING AND FIXING ISSUE.
THE VEHICLE DOES NOT HEAT UP WHEN IDLING WHICH MEAN REMOTE START TO CLEAR THE ICE FROM THE WINDSHIELD AND WARM THE CABIN DOES NOT WORK. HONDA TOLD ME IT HAS TO BE DRIVEN TO PRODUCE HEAT. THEY'VE REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT AND FLUSHED THE COOLING SYSTEM. I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK DOWN A DECLINE FOR 8 MILES. AFTER 4 MILES THE ENGINE GAUGE BEGINS TO RISE AND THEN BY THE TIME I REACH 8 MILES (BOTTOM OF THE HILL) THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE GAUGE BOTTOMS OUT BACK DOWN TO THE COLD. THE HEAT THAT MAY HAVE STARTED HOW EVER FEEBLE IS NOW ONCE AGAIN COLD. ANY ICE ON THE WINDOWS IS STILL THERE BECAUSE THE WHOLE CAR INSIDE IS STILL COLD. IF IT WASN'T FOR THE HEATED SEATS I'D FREEZE TO DEATH. THE SERVICE MANAGER CAME TO TAKE MY CAR ONE MORNING AND SAW THIS HAPPEN. HE WAS TOLD BY HONDA THE ENGINE DOESN'T PRODUCE HEAT WITH OUT A LOAD ON IT. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN SOLD NORTH OF OHIO. IT IS UNSAFE. I ALSO HAVE A STRONG GASOLINE SMELL IN MY OIL THAT WILL SOON BE TAKEN IN FOR. ALSO, THE SAFETY FEATURES ALL BECOME INACTIVE BECAUSE OF A LITTLE RAIN OR SNOW. THE HONDA DEALER RECALIBRATED THEM BUT IT STILL HAPPENS. THE LACK OF HEAT ON IDLE IS UNACCEPTABLE THOUGH.
JUST AS WE WERE APPROACHING THE 4000FT DESCENT TO THE VALLEY FLOOR, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIT UP WITH MULTIPLE WARNINGS, THE FIRST BEING MAJOR BRAKE FAILURE. I STEPPED ON THE BRAKE WHICH WAS FIRST SOFT, THEN IMMEDIATELY BECAME HARD TO PRESS DOWN TO STOP THE CAR. A SMALL TURNOFF ALLOWED ME TO GET THE CAR OFF THE HIGHWAY AND STOPPED. MULTIPLE WARNINGS CONTINUED ACROSS THE SCREEN. SHUT OFF THE CAR TO RESTART THE COMPUTER, THEN RESTARTED THE CAR. SAME MESSAGES. CHECKED EXTERIOR OF CAR, TIRES, OIL. ALL WELL. TOWED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS TESTED FOR EBB AND ESB FAILURE, ECU FAILURE. ELECTRONIC BOOSTER WAS REPLACED AND THE BRAKE SYSTEM BLED. HONDA HAD THE CAR FOR 7 DAYS. YESTERDAY WE PICKED UP THE CR-V, HAVING BEEN TOLD THAT IT WAS REPAIRED AND READY TO GO. WE DROVE AWAY, BUT LESS THAN A MILE FROM THE DEALER/SERVICE LOCATION, THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM OCCURRED - INSTRUMENT PANEL LIT UP MULTIPLE WARNINGS WITH BRAKE THE MOST EMPHATIC. I WAS NOT BRAKING WHEN THE WARNING CAME, BUT IMMEDIATELY BRAKED TO GET OFF THE ROAD. AGAIN THE GRINDING SOUNDS AND DIFFICULTY PRESSING HARD ENOUGH TO STOP THE CAR. CAR IS BACK AT THE DEALER FOR SERVICE. THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED AND WE DO NOT TRUST ANY REPAIR AT THIS POINT. WE COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUSLY INJURED ON THE MOUNTAIN HIGHWAY AND ARE NOT WILLING TO RISK OUR LIVES AGAIN.
JANUARY 6TH, 2018 CAR SMELLED OF EGGS AND GAS. DROVE CAR 70 MILES THE EMMISIONS AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR WAS TOWED FROM A BUSY HWY 61 MN TO HONDA SERVICE CENTER. THEY HAD CRV FOR 3 WEEKS. CHANGED OIL & PROGRAMMED INJECTORS THE OIL HAD 1QUART OVER OF GAS MIXED INTO THE OIL. 700 MILES LATER AND CAR NOW HAS GAS MIXED INTO OIL AGAIN AND OVER THE ORANGE DIPSTICK AND SMELLS OF VERY STRONG GAS. A SERVICE APPOINTMENT MADE FOR MARCH 14TH, 2018 FOR OIL CHANGE, RATTLE IN THE DASH BEHIND HEAD UNIT AND THE HEAT PROBLEM AS WELL. THE NO HEAT FOR WINTER DRIVING WITH FROZEN WINDSHIELD BEFORE DRIVING AND WHILE DRIVING IS VERY DANGEROUS! BREAKING DOWN ON A INTERSTATE HWY IS ALSO DANGORUS WAITING 4 HOURS WITH NO HEAT IN CAR AT -1 TEMP WAITING FOR TOW IS DANGORUS. NOT HAPPY ABOUT THIS AT ALL!
I WAS BACKING INTO MY DRIVEWAY, I STOPPED THE VEHICLE, MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE, THEN SHIFTED TO DRIVE AND SUDDENLY WITHOUT WARNING, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED MOVING FORWARD DESPITE MY HEAVY PRESSURE ON THE BRAKES I COULD NOT STOP THE VEHICLE AND I WOUND UP CRASHING INTO MY CAR INTO MY NEIGHBORS HOUSE, WITH EXTENSIVE DAMAGE TO THE HOUSE AND MY CAR. I SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES
GAS IS MIXING IN THE OIL OF OUR NEW 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE 1.5 LITER ENGINE DOES NOT WARM UP SUFFICIENTLY IN COLD WEATHER, RUNS RICH, AND LEAVES UN-COMBUSTED GAS IN THE OIL. THIS TRIGGERS ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS AND REQUIRES FREQUENT OIL CHANGES. ENGINE PERFORMANCE AND DRIVABILITY SUFFER. THIS PROBLEM IS ALSO BEING REPORTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA BY OTHER HONDA CR-V OWNERS WHO DRIVE IN COLDER CLIMATES. WE ARE CONCERNED THAT IT IS CAUSING LONG TERM DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE OF OUR NEW VEHICLE. I CAUTION PROSPECTIVE BUYERS TO POSTPONE THE PURCHASE OF A 2017 OR NEWER HONDA CR-V WITH THE 1.5 LITER ENGINE UNTIL HONDA SOLVES TO THIS PROBLEM. THE FIFTH GENERATION CR-V IS AN EXCELLENT CAR IN MANY RESPECTS, BUT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM. I CANNOT RECOMMEND THE CAR, PARTICULARLY TO THOSE WHO DRIVE IN COLDER CLIMATES, UNTIL A FIX IS FOUND. REUTERS REPORTED IN FEBRUARY THAT HONDA HAS ANNOUNCED A RECALL OF 350,000 CR-V'S IN CHINA FOR WHAT APPEARS TO BE A SIMILAR ISSUE. WE'VE DRIVEN OUR CAR FOR ABOUT SIX MONTHS, AND IT HAS LESS THAN 2,000 MILES ON IT. WE TYPICALLY USE THE CAR FOR SHORT DRIVES WITHIN THE CITY. OUR CAR WAS AT THE DEALER FOR OVER TWO WEEKS WHEN THE PROBLEM FIRST OCCURRED. A FIELD REP FROM HONDA WAS SENT OUT TO THE DEALER TO TRY TO ASSIST. SENSORS AND FUEL INJECTORS WERE REPLACED. THE OIL AND FILTER WAS CHANGED. AT THIS TIME OUR ENGINE HAD LESS THAN 1100 MILES ON IT. THESE REPAIRS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. IN MID-JANUARY THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS WERE TRIGGERED AGAIN. OUR DEALER NOTED THE SMELL OF GAS IN OUR OIL AND ONCE AGAIN CHANGED THE OIL AND FILTER. WE HAD LESS THAN 1500 MILES ON THE CAR FOR THIS SERVICE. HONDA DOES NOT APPEAR TO HAVE A SOLUTION TO THIS PROBLEM. THE OIL AND FILTER CHANGES ARE A BANDAID, AND LONG TERM DAMAGE MAY BE OCCURRING TO OUR ENGINE. HONDA MAY HAVE A MAJOR PROBLEM ON ITS HANDS WITH THE 1.5 LITER ENGINE.
I PURCHASED A 2018 HONDA CRV FROM A LOCAL HONDA DEALER, HERB CHAMBERS HONDA BURLINGTON, LAST FALL. THE CAR HAD PERFORMED VERY RELIABLY UNTIL JANUARY 24, WHEN, WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE OUTSIDE OF BOSTON THE HOOD OF THE CAR OPENED AND SMASHED INTO THE WINDSHIELD. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD SAFELY IN ORDER TO INSPECT THE CAR. THE CAR SUSTAINED DAMAGE TO THE HOOD AND FENDERS. OVER THE COURSE OF MY OWNERSHIP ' I NEVER OPENED THE HOOD NOR DID I EVER HEAR OR NOTICE ANY RATTLING. I BROUGHT THE CRV IMMEDIATELY TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER (HERB CHAMBERS) FOR REPAIR, WHICH I ASSUMED WOULD BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. I ALSO REQUESTED ALTERNATIVE TRANSPORTATION SINCE I HAVE A COMMUTE IN EXCESS OF 20 MILES. HOWEVER, SINCE THEY COULD NOT IDENTIFY A DEFECT TO A PART IT WAS NOT COVERED AND BY IMPLICATION MY FAULT AND I WOULD HAVE TO FIND MY OWN TRANSPORTATION. I CONTACTED THE DEALER I PURCHASE THE CRV FROM AND THE GENERAL MANAGER INDICATED THAT IT WAS NOT A DEALERSHIP ISSUE AND THAT I SHOULD CONTACT HONDA AMERICA CUSTOMER SERVICE. I DID CONTACT THEM AND THEY WERE ABLE TO PROVIDE ME A 3 DAY CAR RENTAL ' WHICH WAS NOT ADEQUATE SINCE I AM EXPECTING TO BE WITHOUT A CAR FOR OVER 3 WEEKS. EVERYONE I HAVE DEALT WITH FROM HONDA HAS BEEN KIND AND COURTEOUS. HOWEVER, IN EACH AND EVERY CONTACT THEY HAVE INDICATED THAT WITHOUT A VISIBLE DEFECT, IT IS NOT HONDA'S PROBLEM. IN NOT ONE CONVERSATION, DID ANYONE ASK WHAT HAPPENED OR OFFERED TO INVESTIGATE THE CAUSE. PLEASE LET ME KNOW IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. JOHN
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO CONCERNS WITH THE ENGINE NOT WARMING UP. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE ENGINE BLOWS COLD AIR AT STOP SIGNS, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO UNFOG THE WINDOWS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED, THE CONSUMER SIMPLY LIVED IN A COLD AREA. THE MANUFACTURER STATED A DESIGN CHANGE WOULD BE CREATED FOR FUTURE MODELS. *JS
I WAS DRIVING ON A TWO WAY STREET NO CAR IN FRONT OF ME FOR AT LEAST OVER HALF A MILE AND THE CAR ABRUPTLY STOPPED (32 MPH TO 7 MPH) WITHIN SECONDS. THERE WAS NOTHING ON THE ROAD, CLEAR WEATHER CONDITIONS. I WENT FORWARD AND MY PURSUE FELL ON THE FLOOR. LUCKILY, THERE WAS NO CAR BEHIND ME OTHERWISE I WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR-ENDED.
NOTICED GAS FUMES INSIDE THE VEHICLE SOON AFTER PURCHASE IN OCTOBER 2017. AT FIRST NOTICED IT AFTER I FUELED VEHICLE. THOUGHT MAYBE I HAD STEPPED IN PUDDLE OF GASOLINE AT THE PUMPS. AFTER A MONTH REALIZED THE GAS FUMES GOT WORSE IF I WAS IDLING MY VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY, IF I WAS PARKED FOR A HALF HOUR WITH CAR RUNNING(WINTER IN CENTRAL NEW YORK) WHILE I ATE MY LUNCH. I CAN SMELL IT OUTSIDE AROUND MY VEHICLE WHEN I PULL MY CAR INTO MY GARAGE AT HOME. TODAY I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE. I ASKED THEM TO LOOK AT MY VEHICLE FOR A FUEL LEAK SINCE THE FUMES ARE SO STRONG. I EVEN ASKED THEM TO IDLE THE CAR AND CHECK IT. THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING IN THE HALF HOUR. THEY HAVE ASKED ME TO BRING IT BACK AND LEAVE IT FOR AWHILE NEXT TIME. I HAVE OWNED 3 HONDA VEHICLES BEFORE THIS AND NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS PROBLEM BEFORE.
CAR PURCHASED JULY 1, 2017. JAN 6, 2018 BATTERY DIED AFTER SITTING FOR ROUGHLY 2 DAYS. HONDA CHECKED BATTERY AND FOUND NO PROBLEMS WITH BATTERY OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. FRIDAY, FEB 16, 2018 SAME PROBLEM: DEAD BATTERY. CAR WAS SITTING FOR 3 DAYS PRIOR TO DISCOVERY. THERE ARE NO SUPPLEMENTAL ELECTRICAL ACCESSORIES.
GAS IN GETTING IN CRANKCASE OIL ON BRAND NEW ENGINE. STARTED FROM DAY ONE. IT IS WASHING DOWN CYLINDER WALLS,, DILUTING THE OIL AND CAUSING PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE. I AM SCARED TO DEATH IT WILL BLOW UP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND CAUSE MY DEATH.
THE KEY FOB WILL AUTOMATIC OPEN ALL WINDOWS AND MOON ROOF IF UNLOCK BUTTON IS HIT IN A CERTAIN SEQUENCE ACCIDENTALLY. ALSO, YOU CAN ACCIDENTALLY OPEN TAILGATE. HONDA NEEDS TO HAVE A DISABLE FEATURE. BOTH OF THESE HAVE HAPPEN TWICE ON ME.
VEHICLE HAS AN ISSUE WITH ACTIVATING ITS COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM (CMBS) FOR NO REASON RESULTING IN UNNECESSARY SLAMMING OF THE BRAKES. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST FIVE TIMES OVER THE LAST FIVE MONTHS. IT WAS FIRST NOTED AT AROUND 12,000 MILES AND HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 4 MORE TIMES (WE ARE NOW AT 20,000 MILES). IN SOME INSTANCES, THE VEHICLE WAS TRAVELLING AT OVER 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND SLAMMED ON ITS BRAKES ON ITS OWN. THERE WERE NO OBJECTS IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND WE WERE FOLLOWING A STRAIGHT LANE. LUCKILY, REAR-ENDING ACCIDENTS THAT COULD HAVE RESULTED FROM THIS HAVE BEEN NARROWLY AVOIDED. THERE WAS AN INSTANCE IN WHICH THE VEHICLE BRAKED AND AN 18-WHEELER BEHIND IT HAD TO SLAM ON ITS BRAKES AND WAS SWERVING UNCONTROLLABLY FOR AT LEAST 300 FEET. A LEMON CLAIM HAS BEEN FILED, BUT HONDA IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE ISSUE BECAUSE IT HAS YET TO HAPPEN WHILE THEIR TECHNICIANS DRIVE IT. PLEASE NOTE THAT WE HAVE PUT 20,000 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE FOR IT TO HAPPEN 5 TIMES (AN AVERAGE OF ONCE EVERY 4,000). TECHNICIANS ARE EXTREMELY UNLIKELY TO EXPERIENCE THE ISSUE WHILE TEST DRIVING THE VEHICLE 10 MILES. THIS ISSUE JEOPARDIZES THE SAFETY OF ALL PASSENGERS OF THIS VEHICLE. WE TRULY HOPE HONDA SHEDS LIGHT ON THIS ISSUE TO PREVENT UNNECESSARY LOSS OF LIFE.
PURCHASED 2017 HONDA CRV EXL WITH AWD IN OCTOBER 2017. IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE, THERE WAS A LOUD KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LIA HONDA IN WILLIAMSVILLE, NY WHERE I WAS TOLD "THAT'S JUST THE SOUND OF THE FUEL PUMP, TURN YOUR RADIO UP." THE SOUND PROGRESSIVELY GOT LOUDER SO THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO LIA HONDA IN DECEMBER 2017. TECH THAT HEARD THE NOISE SAID "IT SOUNDED LIKE THE VEHICLE WAS IN A CRASH, THE SOUND WAS THAT BAD." VEHICLE SCHEDULED FOR REPAIR IN JAN 2018. REPAIR WAS MADE TO VEHICLE IN JAN 2018 WHICH INCLUDED ADDED INSULATION AROUND GAS TANK AND TIGHTENING OF THE GAS TANK STRAPS. NOISE WENT AWAY FOR APPROXIMATELY 1-2 WEEKS. NOISE IS NOW BACK LOUDER THAN EVER AS OF FEB 2018. CAR WAS TAKEN BACK TO LIA HONDA AGAIN AND WE WERE TOLD "HONDA TOLD THEM NOT TO TOUCH THE CAR" AND THAT THEY "WOULD NOT MAKE ANY REPAIRS TO THE VEHICLE." I AM CONCERNED THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE SAFETY SYSTEM AND IT IS NOT BEING TAKEN SERIOUSLY BY HONDA OR MY DEALERSHIP. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE CAR KNOWING THE GAS TANK OR FUEL PUMP IS KNOCKING ABNORMALLY. THE KNOCKING NOISE HAPPENS ALL THE TIME BUT IS LOUDER WHEN THERE IS A FULL TANK OF GAS. THE KNOCKING CAN BE HEARD BEST FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE NEAR THE GAS TANK.
PROBLEM: THE 'APPLY 'BRAKES' LIGHT' APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD DISPLAY AND THE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED, DRAGGING THE CAR FROM 65MPH TO 25 IN ABOUT 80 FEET. THE SUV BEHIND ME NARROWLY AVOIDED HITTING ME. THERE WERE NO CARS IN MY LANE AHEAD OF ME FOR EST. 7 CAR LENGTHS. NARRATIVE: CLEAR DAY ON THE CAPITAL BELTWAY, 495, INNER LOOP IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CHAIN BRIDGE ROAD EXIT IN VIRGINIA. I HAD ACCELERATED FROM 30MPH TO MERGE FROM THE HIGHWAY 7/LEESBURG PIKE ON-RAMP ONTO THE 495 INNER LOOP INTO HEAVY TRAFFIC. THIS FIRST LANE FROM THE RIGHT IS A 'FILTER' LANE WHERE ON-BOARDING CARS AND EXITING CARS MUST FILTER ONTO THE FREEWAY OR AN EXIT IN ABOUT .2 MILES. AFTER ENTERING THE HEAVILY TRAFFICKED FILTER LANE I CLEARED AND ENTERED THE SECOND FREEWAY LANE, MAKING 65MPH TO MATCH TRAFFIC. NOBODY WAS TURNING INTO MY LANE. MY LANE (SECOND FROM RIGHT) WAS CLEAR AN ESTIMATED 7 CAR LENGTHS IN FRONT OF MY CAR, BUT LANES AROUND ME WERE HEAVILY TRAVELLED DUE TO SEVERAL EXITS IN A SHORT DISTANCE. (TYSONS CORNER/HIGHWAY 7, CHAIN BRIDGE RD (VA 123), DULLES TOLL ROAD (VA 267). AFTER PASSING THE CHAIN BRIDGE EXIT, BEFORE ENGAGING THE CRUISE CONTROL, I WAS JERKED FORWARD INTO THE SHOULDER RESTRAINT AS THE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGED: THE 'BRAKE' INDICATOR SHOWING ON THE DASH. I LOOKED IN MY REARVIEW MIRROR AND NOTED A SUV HEAVILY BRAKING TO AVOID IMPACT. I HIT THE ACCELERATOR HARD TO INCREASE THE DISTANCE BETWEEN IT AND ME, MAKING THE BRAKES DISENGAGE. SPECULATION: THIS MODEL FREQUENTLY LOCKS ONTO CARS LEAVING MY LANE AHEAD OF MY COURSE OF TRAVEL AND HEAVILY DEACCELERATES AS THEY SLOW TO EXIT SPEED. MANY CARS WERE JOCKEYING TO EXIT IN THE LANE TO MY RIGHT. MY SUSPICION IS THE ACTIVE BRAKING SYSTEM WAS TRAKING SOME CAR IN THE RIGHT FILTER LANE AND APPLIED BRAKES TO MATCH THEIR EXIT SPEED, WHICH COULD HAVE BEEN AROUND 20MPH.
ON JANUARY 25, 2018, I WENT OUT & GOT INTO MY 2017 HONDA CR-V TOURING, STARTED IT AND THEN GOT OUT AND RAN BACK INTO HOUSE FOR A BOTTLE OF WATER. WHEN I CAME OUT, MY CAR HAD TRAVELED ACROSS THE STREET (FLAT SURFACE) AND HAD LODGED AGAINST MY NEIGHBORS TREE. WHAT CAUSED THE CAR TO COME OUT OF GEAR OR IF I HAD LEFT IT IN GEAR, WHY WASN'T IT ROLLING WHEN I GOT OUT? HAVE THERE BEEN PROBLEMS OF THIS NATURE WITH THIS MAKE/MODEL HONDA? I INCURRED APPROXIMATELY $4,000 DAMAGE AND I WASN'T EVEN IN VEHICLE!
DRIVING HIGHWAY SUDDENLY CAR SLOWS AND DASH READS THAT ALL SYSTEMS- BRAKES,STEERING, AND, ETC FAILED. PULLED CAR OFF ROAD SAFETY. SHUT CAR OFF.RESTARTED. PROBLEM WENT AWAY. CHECKED ON HONDA OWNERS WEBSITE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH NO FIX. SCARY WHEN ALL SYSTEMS COULD BE COMPROMISED
THE "TAILGATE COVER" DETACHED AND FLEW OFF WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 70 MPH - NOT TURNING, STOPPING, OR DECELERATING. THANKFULLY, IT HIT THE ROAD SURFACE AND NOT ANOTHER DRIVER! UPON STOPPING AND CLOSER INSPECTION, THERE ARE THREE (3) BROKEN PLASTIC PEG-LIKE THINGS STILL IN THEIR CONNECTORS. THERE ARE TWO SCREWS WITH BROKEN PLASTIC AROUND THEM. THERE ARE THREE WHITE PORTS WITH NO PINS CONNECTED, LEAVING ME TO ASSUME THOSE THREE CONNECTING PINS WERE NOT ADEQUATELY ENGAGED LEADING TO THE FAILURE.
I WAS DRIVING ON AN INTERSTATE HIGHWAY WITH THE NEAREST VEHICLES AT LEAST A BLOCK IN FRONT AND BEHIND ME. NO OVERPASSES, ETC. IT WAS VERY COLD OUTSIDE. TRAVELING AT 65 MPH I HEARD A LOUD EXPLOSION. STUNNED, I IMMEDIATELY SLOWED DOWN. LOOKED UP AND SAW A LARGE HOLE IN MY SUNROOF. I EXITED THE HIGHWAY ONTO A CITY STREET WHERE I COULD BETTER LOOK AND DISCOVERED THE CAR WAS FULL OF GLASS SHARDS. I DROVE DIRECTLY TO THE DEALER. DEALER'S INITIAL RESPONSE WAS THAT IT WOULD BE AN INSURANCE CLAIM. I DISAGREED AS THERE WAS NO VEHICLE NEARBY TO ACCOUNT FOR ANY FLYING DEBRIS. AFTER OTHER REPS EXAMINED THE DAMAGE, THEY CONCURRED IT LOOKED LIKE IT HAD EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE/OUT SINCE SOME REMAINING GLASS WAS PROTRUDING UPWARD. DEALER REPAIRED AT NO COST, PROVIDED LOANER VEHICLE, AND SERVICE RECORD INDICATES CAUSE WAS BODY FLEXING AND EXTREME COLD.
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO AN ISSUE WITH THE SMALL LATCH PLATE ANCHOR ON THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND ADVISED THE SEAT BELT WAS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. *JS THE CONSUMER STATED THE SEAT BELTS HAD TO BE CROSSED IN THE LEFT REAR AND CENTER SEATING OVER EACH OTHER IN ORDER TO PROPERLY FUNCTION. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED THAT THE MANUFACTURER CORRECT THE ISSUE. *JS
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE DRIVER WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR BUMPER AND REAR WINDOW OF THE VEHICLE WERE DAMAGED. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE RIBS AND LEFT SIDE OF THE BODY. THE FRONT PASSENGER SUSTAINED CHEST INJURIES. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT REQUIRED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC OR DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
DRIVING ON THRUWAY ON RAMP OVERPASS AND HEARD A POP...SUNROOF GLASS SHATTERED...WAS TOLD DAMAGED FROM IMPACT FROM STONE....I WASN'T NEAR ANY VEHICLES THAT WOULD HAVE THROWN A STONE I WAS BY MYSELF ON THRUWAY OVERPASS DRIVING TO GET ON THRUWAY
I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO FILE THIS UNDER. THE HEATING SYSTEM IS AN ABSOLUTE JOKE. I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS NOT TO BE AN ISSUE IN A BRAND NEW CAR. . NOT SAFE IN CONDITIONS WHERE IT'S AT FRIGID TEMPS. I HAVE BEEN SITTING IN MY CAR FOR A HALF AN HOUR AND IT'S STILL NOT WARM. UNCALLED FOR. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN. CAR WILL NOT START AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT. DEALER PERFORMED SOFTWARE UPDATE WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM TO D ME THAT HONDA HAD ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE PROBLEM
THIS VEHICLE HAS A MAJOR HEATING ISSUE. THE HEATING IN THE VEHICLE IS THE WORST I HAVE SEEN YET. YOU CAN LITERALLY BE WAITING FOR A TRAIN OR AT A STOP LIGHT AND WATCH THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE FALL DOWN AND YOUR VENTILATION BEGIN TO BLOW COLD AIR, EVEN IF YOU'VE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR FOR HALF AN HOUR BEFORE THAT. I USE REMOTE START ALMOST EVERYDAY DURING THE WINTER, I LET THE CAR RUN FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND WHEN I GET INSIDE, IT'S STILL COLD AS IF IT HASN'T BEEN RUNNING. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE A 4 MONTH OLD SON AND HE CAN'T BE CONSTANTLY MOVED FROM A WARM INTO A COLD ENVIRONMENT. I LIVE IN CHICAGO AND THE WINTERS CAN BE ROUGH BUT I NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT WAS THIS COLD. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HONDA AGAIN (I'VE OWNED A TOTAL OF 3) UNLESS THEY ISSUE A RECALL AND RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM.
HEADLIGHT LENSES FOG UP EVEN WHEN WITH HEADLIGHTS ON. INSIDE PASSENGER WINDOW FOGS UP . PASSENGER LEATHER SEAT IS LOOSE - UNSIGHTLLY.
ON A DAY WITH SIGNIFICANT WINTER WEATHER I DROVE MY VEHICLE AND WHEN I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION AND PARKED I WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR. THE STATE OF THE DOOR LOCK DIDN'T MATTER. I CALLED A FRIEND WHO CAME OVER TO HELP. THEY SAID THAT THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE HAD FAILED TO RETRACT FULLY. THEY PUSHED IT IN AND THE DOOR WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ABLE TO OPEN. THE FAILURE OF THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE TO RETURN TO THE CLOSED POSITION APPEARED TO BE DUE TO A BIT OF ICE. THE APPARENT SITUATION IS THAT IF THE EXTERIOR HANDLE IS OUT OF POSITION THEN THE INTERIOR HANDLE CAN FAIL TO OPEN THE DOOR.
JANUARY 12, 2018 INSTRUMENT PANEL WENT COMPLETELY DARK. (RAIN RELATED?) DROVE CAR THROUGH RAIN, PARKED AND TURNED CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES. WHEN GOT BACK IN AND STARTED CAR, INSTRUMENT PANEL, IGNITION SWITCH AND SHIFT LEVER LIGHTS ALL OFF. ECON MODE INDICATOR REMAINED ON. FIFTEEN MINUTES LATER TPMS INDICATOR CAME ON. INSTRUMENT PANEL UNRESPONSIVE TO BRIGHTNESS CONTROL KNOB OR HEADLIGHT SELECTION. WHEN PARKED AGAIN, ALL DOORS DID NOT UNLOCK WITH DRIVER DOOR OPENING. JANUARY 13, 2018 ISSUES APPEAR TO BE RESOLVED WHEN CAR STARTED. ALL INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS BACK ON. TPMS RESET AND DID NOT TURN ON AGAIN. REPORTED ISSUE ON HONDA SERVICE SITE.
A LOT OF US ARE HAVING HEATING ISSUES WITH OUR 2017 CR-V (1.5 TURBO). THE REAL PROBLEMS START AT ABOUT 15 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.THE CAR WILL NOT HEAT UP WITH NORMAL CITY DRIVING THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE STAYS AT 0. THE COLDER IT GETS OUTSIDE THE WORSE IT IS. CAUSE WE HAVE ALREADY SEEM MUCH COOLER TEMPS THAN 15 LIKE -15.IF I DRIVE ON THE HI-WAY THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE WILL RAISE TO NORMAL OPERATING TEMP ALTHOUGH THE CABIN AIR NEVER REALLY GETS WARM IT IS BETTER THAN NOTHING, WORST HEAT OUTPUT OF ANY VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED ONCE I LEAVE THE HI-WAY AND GET IN THE CITY THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE WILL GO BACK TO 0 IF I HAVE TO STOP AND WAIT AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS.ON MY WAY TO WORK THE CAR CAN BE AT NORMAL ENGINE OPERATING TEMP I STOP AT A GAS STATION TO GET A DRINK LEAVE THE CAR IDLING GET BACK IN LESS THAN 2 MINUTES AND THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE IS BACK TO 0 AGAIN.SO I DECIDED TO RUN SOME TEST.I CHECKED THE CR-V OUTSIDE TEMP PRETTY WARM AT AROUND 30 FAHRENHEIT.TEMP SET TO HI FAN ON HI, TEMP OUT VENTS WAS 140 FAHRENHEIT THIS IS NOT PASSING BY THE MANUFACTURING STANDARDS I FOUND ON THE WEB.TEMP SET TO HI FAN SPEED LOW, TEMP OUT VET 155 FAHRENHEIT THIS IS 15 DEGREES WARMER WHICH SHOW EVEN AT 30 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT OUTSIDE AIR TEMP THE HEATING SYSTEM CAN'T MAINTAIN ITS TEMPERATURE WITH FAN ON HI. TEST WAS DONE AT 70 MPH.COLD START TEST TEMP AND FAN BOTH ON HI OUTSIDE TEMP AROUND 30 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT 10 MINUTES IDLING CR-V VENT TEMP 80 FAHRENHEIT. I DID THE SAME TESTS ON OUR RAV4 AND THE TEMPS WERE 30-40 DEGREES HIGHER ON AVERAGE AND THIS WAS WITH WARNER TEMP OUTSIDE AIR LIKE I SAID IT START TO GET BAD AT 15 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN CAUSE IF COLD AND SNOWING THE CR-V DOESN'T HAVE THE POWER/HEAT TO DEFROST WINDOWS / MELT THE FALLING SNOW IN A SNOWSTORM.THIS IS A DESIGN PROBLEM THAT MANY OF US ARE HAVING AND WE NEED HONDA TO STEP UP AND FIX.HONDA NEEDS TO LOOK AT LOOK AT A
THE CAR PULLED TO THE LEFT SINCE PURCHASING THE CAR. THE DEALER HASN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIX IT. CAR CONTINUES TO PULL LEFT. AN INDEPENDENT BUSINESS AGREED THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE ALIGNMENT AND/OR THE TIRES. THE DEALER IS UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO FIX. SO, I HAVE A NEW CAR THAT PULLS LEFT. UNSAFE
VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN GARAGE FOR A FEW DAYS OVER HOLIDAYS. WHEN LEAVING TO MEET RELATIVES AT A RESTAURANT, THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. BATTERY WAS AT 3.3 VOLTS. CALLED THE HONDA DEALER AND HE SUGGESTED HONDA'S FREE SERVICE; ALSO, MAYBE THE CAR SHOULD BE DRIVEN DAILY. (?!) I ASKED IF I COULD REMOVE THE BATTERY AND CHARGE IT WITH MY BATTERY CHARGER. HE SAID THAT WOULD BE OK. I CHARGED OVERNIGHT ON TRICKLE CHARGE. THE NEXT DAY THE BATTERY WAS AT 13 VOLTS. I PUT IT BACK IN THE CAR, WAITED 10 MINUTES FOR ALL SYSTEMS TO BOOT UP AND TOOK IT FOR A DRIVE. SEEMED ALRIGHT. LOOKING ONLINE, I NOTICED A HONDA TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (17-032) REFERRING TO PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN AND MY VIN FIT THE PARAMETERS. I NOW HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER TO CHECK IT OUT. SURPRISINGLY, THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE DEALER HAD NOT HEARD OF THIS BULLETIN AND WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. I HAD ASSUMED HONDA WOULD DISTRIBUTE ALL BULLETINS TO ALL DEALERS, BUT APPARENTLY THAT'S NOT THE CASE. HOPEFULLY THE SOFTWARE UPDATES WILL FIX THIS PROBLEM.
VEHICLE IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY DURING WINTER WEATHER. WINDSHIELD FLUID NOZZLES FROZE. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE WINDSHIELD FLUID, THE WIPERS COME ON AUTOMATICALLY FOR THREE SWEEPS. BECAUSE THERE WAS NO AVAILABLE FLUID, THE WIPERS SMEARED THE SNOW, DIRT, AND SALT ON THE WINDSHIELD, RESULTING IN ZERO VISION. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD, I HAD SOME VISIBILITY. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD, I HAD NO VISIBILITY. THIS "CONVENIENCE FEATURE" OF AUTOMATED WIPER SWIPES IS THEREFORE DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE BANNED.
I PURCHASED THIS CR-V NEW FROM THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN SARASSOTA, FL IN FEB 2017. O/S SRS LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. WHEN IT COMES ON, IT STAYS ON UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR AT LEAST 3 MONTHS. I HAD STARTED TAKING PICTURES OF THE ACTUAL METER PANEL SPEEDOMETER WITH THE O/S SRS LIGHT ON EVERY DAY TO SHOW THE FREQUENCY AND MAGNITUDE OF THIS ISSUE. ON 11/11/17, STORED CODES WERE DELETED A FEW TIMES AT BRADENTON, FL DEALERSHIP WITH NO SUCCESS. "SYSTEM OPERATING AS DESIGNED" IS WHAT I WAS TOLD BY HONDA DEALERSHIP. ON 11/13 - 11/21/17, O/S SRS LIGHT CAME ON AFTER CODES CLEARED. RETURNED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP IN BRADENTON, FL. THEY CHECKED PIN FIT AT AIR BAG CONNECTOR AND SRS UNIT. CONTINUITY WAS CONFIRMED. NO MOUSE OR WATER DAMAGE. DRIVER'S SEAT AIR BAG WAS REPLACED PER HONDA TECH LINE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS IN POSSESSION OF OUR CR-V DURING THESE DATES. ON 12/13/17, O/S SRS LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. THE BRADENTON, FL DEALERSHIP. SCANNED FOR SRS CODES (SAME AS BEFORE, 'B0020-13"), OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE ON THE LEFT SIDE. REVIEWED DATA WITHE TECH LINE AND THEY HAD DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE SRS CONTROL UNIT. INITIALIZED SEAT WEIGHT SENSOR TO VERIFY REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. TECH DROVE VEHICLE 85 MILES TO CONFIRM REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. TECH LINE REF#4044223 ON 12/14/17 THE O/S SRS LIGHT CAME ON STILL. DUE TO OUR VACATION FROM SARASOTA, FL TO OHIO FOR CHRISTMAS, THE BRADENTON HONDA DEALERSHIP COULD NOT PROVIDE A LOANER FOR ANY OUT OF STATE DRIVING. SO, WE DROVE THIS CRV TO OHIO WITH THE O/S SRS LIGHT ON FOR 95% OF OUR 2600 MILE TRIP. NEGOTIATED WITH AM HONDA AND BRADENTON, FL DEALERSHIP TO BRING CR-V BACK ON 1/8/18. A HONDA 'TECHNICIAN SPECIALIST' IS BEING FLOWN IN FROM TORRENCE, CA TO FIX IT. MY WIFE AND I RETIRED FROM HONDA OF AMERICA MFG INC WITH 50 COMBINED YEARS OF MANUFACTURING SERVICE BUILDING HONDAS.
CAR IS GARAGED (UNHEATED). THIS AM, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID WOULD NOT SPRAY EVEN THOUGH I HEARD THE SPRAY MOTOR RUNNING. I TRIED THE SPRAY IN MY WIFE'S 2017 ACCORD AND THE SPRAY WORKED. IN MY 60 YEARS OF DRIVING WITH MANY DIFFERENT CARS, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND WE HAVE HAD PLENTY OF FREEZING DAYS OVER THE YEARS. THE SPRAY LINES MUST BE IN AN EXPOSED POSITION AND THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. WITH CARS AHEAD OF YOU ON THE ROAD THROWING UP SNOW, SALT, ETC. ONTO THE WINDSHIELD AND YOU CANNOT CLEAN IT, THE VISIBILITY WILL BE OBSCURED. IF THIS IS NOT CORRECTED, THOSE WITH CRV'S WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO DRIVE ON SNOWY DAYS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, THERE WAS A LOUD KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO GANLEY HONDA IN NORTH OLMSTED, OHIO WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED THE CONTACT WITH CASE NUMBER: 06586790. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 470.
WHEN TURNING ON CAR, I INTERMITTENTLY SMELL STRONG ODOR OF FUEL INSIDE THE CAR. I BROUGHT CAR TO HONDA DEALER (CAR IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD) AND DEALER STATED "THEY DIDN'T SMELL OR SEE ANYTHING" AND THEY DID NOT TAKE ISSUE SERIOUSLY AND DID NOT RUN ANY TESTS. I DO NOT USE "CHEAP GAS" AS DEALER HAD SUGGESTED, AND CAR WAS NEVER IN A GARAGE ANY TIME WHEN STRONG ODOR WAS PRESENT.
HONDA CRV 2017 COLLISION SYSTEM FAILED, LED TO BRAKE FAIL AND ACCIDENT, FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING NOW- ON DEC 28TH 2017, WHILE DRIVING MY 2017 CRV, I HAD TO STOP AT STOP SIGN, I TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES BUT THEY FAILED COMPLETELY AS IN NO RESPONSE BY PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE COLLISSION MITIGATION SYSTEM ON HONDA MALFUNCTIONED AND MESSED WITH THE BRAKING, AS A RESULT THE BRAKES FAILED AND I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT. NOW MY QUESTION IS WHAT WILL HONDA DO IN THIS CASE. I AM ALSO WORRIED NOW FOR FUTURE, TODAY I WAS DRIVING AT 10-15 MPH IN A SMALL STREET AND WAS ALONE IN THE CAR. WHAT IF MY ENTIRE FAMILY WAS IN THE CAR AND THIS HAPPENED ON A FREEWAY AT 70-75 MPH. MY DRIVER AIRBAG WAS ALSO DEPLOYED DUE TO THE COLLISION TODAY. I NOW FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING MY HONDA CRV 2017.
AUDIO HEAD UNIT (7" LED PANEL ON EX-L) ON DASHBOARD DOES NOT DIM AT NIGHT. WHEN YOU TRY AND MOVE THE DIMMER SLIDER ON THE UNIT, IT TRIES TO DIM, THAN GOES BACK TO FULL BRIGHTNESS. THE DEALER HAS TRIED TO FIX THIS FOR OVER A YEAR, AND IT'S STILL NOT FIXED. DOING A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT'S TOO BRIGHT AT NIGHT AND AFFECTS/INTERFERES WITH NIGHT DRIVING ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS BY CREATING A BLINDING CONDITION.
TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AT THE SPEED LIMIT THE CAR SUDDENLY BRAKED. ALL SAFETY SYSTEMS WERE ACTIVATED AT THIS TIME. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC IN FRONT, BEHIND OR BESIDE. I GOT THE CAR UNDER CONTROL , TURNED ALL SYSTEMS OFF AND PROCEEDED. MESSAGES ON DASH INDICATED FOUR SYSTEMS WERE INOPERATABLE. WHEN I GOT HOME I CALLED HONDA TO REPORT. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE THE CAR TO MY DEALER. I DID SO THE FOLLOWING DAY. (THIS HAPPENED ON A WEEKEND) THEY INDICATED THERE WAS A "BULLETIN" OUT ON THIS PROBLEM. THEY DOWNLOADED NEW SOFTWARE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW MY CONCERN. BULLETINS ARE ONLY ACTED UPON WHEN AN OWNER COMPLAINS. THE ISSUE I OUTLINED ABOVE WARRANTS SURELY QUALIFIES FOR MORE THAN A BULLETIN. AT THE SAME TIME.AT THE DEALER I LEARNED OF ANOTHER PROBLEM...A RECALL FOR A GAS LINE ISSUE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO INFORM THE OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE WHEN A RECALL IS MADE. I WAS NOT INFORMED. I ACCIDENTALLY FOUND OUT ABOUT IT.AT THE DEALER , CONSUMER GIVES PERMISSION TO DISCUSS THIS MATTER WITH THE HONDA CORP *VA *JS
NOTHING HAS HAPPENED YET, BUT THE REAR SEATBELTS IN OUR CRV HAVE A BUCKLE POINT THAT APPEARS TO BE INSTALLED BACKWARD. WHEN BROUGHT TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER THEY SAID THAT'S HOW THEY ARE. THE MIDDLE SEATING POSITION SEATBELT, WHICH HAS TWO BUCKLE POINTS , BUCKLES ON THE OUTSIDE PORTION OF THE FASTENER SYSTEM WHILE THE LEFT SEATING POSITION BUCKLES ON THE INSIDE OF THE FASTENER SYSTEM. IN THE EVENT OF NEED FOR RAPID EXIT, THE LEFT REAR SEAT FASTENER IS BLOCKED BY THE MIDDLE SEAT SEATBELT.
EVERYTIME MY 15 POUND DOG RIDES IN THIS AUTO SHE BEGINS TO THROWUP AFTER 15 OR 20 MINUTES. THIS HAPPENS IN NO OTHER CAR. I TOOK TO HONDA I QUIRING ABOUT A CO2 ISSUE. THERE WAS RECALL FOR JUST SUCH A LEAK CALLING FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ENTIRE FULE LINE. I NEVER RECIEVED ANY NOTIE REGARDING THIS RECALL. DUE TO THE DANGEROUS NATURE OF THIS ISSUE I WOULD LIKE TO I SURE OTHERS ARE NOTIFIED . IF MY 15 LB OG WAS THROWING UP I WOULD HAVE TO ASSUME INFANTS AND CHILD ARE LSO BECOMING ILL.
THE ADVANCED SAFETY SYSTEMS THAT RELY ON RADAR (AUTO BRAKING, LANE DEPARTURE, ETC) ARE UNUSABLE IN VERY LIGHT SNOW. THERE WAS BARELY ANYTHING ON THE SENSOR COVER, YET THESE IMPORTANT SYSTEMS STOPPED WORKING. THIS HAPPENED REPEATEDLY THROUGHOUT THE DAY. WIPING THE SENSOR WOULD RESTORE FUNCTION, BUT ONLY FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES, AT BOTH LOW SPEEDS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE HAS RECEIVED THE RECENT SOFTWARE UPDATE THAT WAS SUPPOSED TO FIX THIS. (TSB A17-064)
CENTER CONSOLE / INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM WILL NOT DIM AT NIGHT, NOR CAN IT BE ADJUSTED. IT STAYS AT MAXIMUM BRIGHTNESS. THE CONSOLE DISPLAYS LIGHT EVEN WHEN OFF AND ADJUSTING THE VOLUME KNOB TURNS IT BACK ON. IT ALSO MAY SPONTANEOUSLY COME BACK ON WHEN OFF. ONCE THE ISSUE APPEARED, IT COULD NOT BE RESOLVED WITH A REBOOT OR HARD RESET. HAVING A BRIGHT LIGHT SOURCE CLOSE TO THE DRIVER AT NIGHT IN A DISTRACTION.
FAULTY WINDSHIELD GLASS. MY VEHICLE'S WINDSHIELD CRACKED DUE TO WHAT APPEARS TO BE WEAK OEM WINDSHIELD. WHEN I TURNED ON MY VEHICLE DEFROST A SLIGHT CRACK APPEARED WHICH CONTINUED ON TO SPREAD ALONG THE BOTTOM, NEAR THE DEFROSTER. A GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT 2017 WINDSHIELD CRACKING FOR A MYRIAD OF REASONS THAT DON'T HAVE TO DO WITH AN ACCIDENT. THE HONDA DEALERSHIP WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED REFUSES TO REPLACE THE WINDSHIELD UNLESS I PAY OVER A $1000. NOW, IN ORDER TO AVOID MY INSURANCE GOING UP, I WILL HAVE TO PAY OVER $500 TO SAFELITE TO REPLACE IT. AGAIN THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED ISSUE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE ODOR OF FUEL WAS PRESENT INSIDE THE CABIN. THE FUEL ODOR WAS ALSO PRESENT INSIDE THE GARAGE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED WITH THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. THE VEHCILE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (LIA HONDA OF WILLIAMSVILLE, NY), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE ODOR COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V442000 (FUEL SYSTEM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE SAME FAILURE LISTED IN THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,900.
ON NOVEMBER 17, 2017 AT 1105AM ON I70W APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES WEST OF THE FRUITA COLORADO EXIT. DRIVING ON ACTIVE CRUISE CONTROL AT 78MHP IN LEFT LANE NO CAR AHEAD IN LEFT LANE BUT PASSING OLD VW BUS LIGHT IN COLOR CRV SUDDENLY BRAKED FROM 78 TO ABOUT 50 MPH KICKED CRUISE OFF, WE DID NOT GET PASS VW. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND US FOR WE COULD HAVE BEEN HIT . SCARED BOTH OF US! IT WAS LIGHT OVERCAST, CAR MILEAGE 3681 APPROX.. ON NOVEMBER 17,2017 AT 1201PM ON HWY 191S ABOUT 5 MILES SOUTH OF I70. DRIVING ON ACTIVE CRUISE CONTROL 69 MPH ACTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION PROBLEM, MAY HAVE BEEN MORE. NO CARS IN FRONT OF US OR BEHIND, A PICKUP TRUCK IN NORTH BOUND LANE APPROX. 175 FT WAS APPROACHING US. CAR STARTED BRAKING, KICKED OFF CRUISE CONTROL. I PULLED OVER PUT CAR IN PARK ALL LIGHTS CLEARED. OVERCAST SKY AND 64 DEGREES. SCARED SECOND TIME TODAY. AR. MILES ON CAR 3753 APPROX PLUS 4 OTHER PREVIOUS TIMES OF CAR GIVING WARNING LIGHTS FOR SYSTEM FAILURES. THESE CARS HAVE A PROBLEM AND DEALER TECKS SAY THERE IS NOTHING IN THE COMPUTERS SAYING THERE IS ANY PROBLEMS EXCEPT CAMERA DIRTY. WE ARE GETTING AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CR-V TOURING
FOR A SECOND TIME WE HAVE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AFTER HAVING PROBLEMS WITH IT NOT HAVING POWER TO GO PAST 2 RPMS AND PULLING AS IF IT HAS A PROBLEM WITH THE FUEL LINE. AFTER HAVING VEHICLE TOWED THE FIRST INSTANCEON10/17/2017 THEY CHECKED IT AND COULD FIND NO EVIDENCE OF ANYTHING GONE WRONG, THE CAR WAS ONLY 2 WEEKS OLD. THIS SECOND INCIDENT COMES 1 MONTH LATER AND NOW THE BRAKE SYSTEM LIGHT CAME ON AND EVEN THOUGH THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS IN THE CORRECT POSITION THERE WERE TWO LETTERS ON TOP OF ONE ANOTHER AND BLINKING. WE COULD ONLY DRIVE IT UP TO 30 MILES AN HOUR WITHOUT IT PULLING. THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS BREAKING.11/21/2017
ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS THE "BRAKE" SIGNAL DISPLAYED AND THE VEHICLE CAME TO A SUDDEN SCREECHING AND COMPLETE STOP. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES OR ANY OTHER OBSTRUCTION IN FRONT OF ME AND THANK GOODNESS NO ONE BEHIND ME. I WAS IN MOTION AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 20 MPH. THE SUDDEN AND WITHOUT REASON STOP JOLTED ME FORWARD WITHOUT WARNING AND IT WAS VERY PAINFUL. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER I PURCHASED IT FROM AND WAS TOLD TO DISABLE THE FEATURE BECAUSE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAULT. THE DEFAULT FOR THIS FEATURE IS ENABLED UPON STARTING VEHICLE. SO I MUST DISABLE THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM EVERY TIME I START THE CAR.
THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM IS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT ALERTS THE DRIVER OF A POTENTIAL FRONTAL COLLISION WITH A VEHICLE OR PEDESTRIAN. WHEN A COLLISION IS DEEMED UNAVOIDABLE, THE SYSTEM AUTOMATICALLY REDUCES THE VEHICLE'S SPEED AND BRINGS THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE SYSTEM PROVIDES VISUAL AND AUDIBLE ALERTS. THE SYSTEM HAS ACTIVATED AUTOMATICALLY WHILE IN FORWARD MOTION ON CITY STREETS WITHOUT REASON CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO BRAKE HARD AND TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN MOVING TRAFFIC NEARLY CAUSING REAR-END COLLISIONS.
I BOUGHT A 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING THREE MONTHS AGO. ON 11/11/2017, IT WAS HESITATING TO START. ONCE IT DID, ALL MY SENSORS WENT OFF SO I TOOK IT UP TO THE SHOP AND DROPPED IT OFF AND GOT A LOANER. THEY ASSUMED A WEAK BATTERY. ON MONDAY, 11/13/2017, I WAS INFORMED BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT A RAT HAD CHEWED THROUGH MY ENGINE WIRE HARNESS AND IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. I WOULD HAVE TO PAY OVER 1600.00 FOR PARTS AND LABOR. I STARTED TO RESEARCH THIS ISSUE AND CAN SEE WHERE IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM. I FEEL LIKE THIS IS SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND NOT BE ABLE TO MAKE MONEY OFF OF PEOPLE WHO PAY GOOD MONEY FOR BRAND NEW VEHICLES. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IF YOU ARE DRIVING AND YOUR CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN, WHAT THEN??
AFTER DRIVING TO LOCAL COSTCO ABOUT 15 MIN DRIVE, I PARKED AT TIRE SERVICE CENTER TO REINFLATE TIRE. ONCE THEY HELPED ME, I TRIED TO START CAR AND NOTHING HAPPENS. COSTCO TIRE TECHNICIAN LOOKED AT IT AND DID NOT THINK IT IS BATTERY ISSUE SO I CONTACTED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE FROM HONDA. IT IS BARELY WINTER AND MY 2017 CR-V BOUGHT LESS THAN 2 MONTHS AGO WITH 1850 MILES DOES NOT START. TOW TRUCK DRIVER SAID HE HAS RESPONDED TO MANY ISSUES WITH BATTERY ON NEW HONDAS. CAR DOES NOT START. CAN'T TELL IF ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE IS ENGAGED OR NOT. WILL TAKE IT (GET IT TOWED) TO NEAREST HONDA DEALER THIS MORNING TO CONFIRM AND FIX ALL THE ISSUES. SO I WILL BE LATE TO WORK TODAY AND WASTED MY SUNDAY DEALING WITH THIS TOO.
PULLING INTO DRIVEWAY... FOOT ON BRAKE.... RAPID ACCELERATION... BRAKES FAILED TO STOP THE VEHICLE... CRASHED INTO BRICK PORCH.
DURING A RECENT WET SNOW FALL - THE "RADAR" SENSORS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON - THIS IS A BIG DISTRACTION - THE WET SNOW HAD ACCUMULATED ON THE FRONT SENSOR OF THE CAR - WHY DONT THESE SENSORS HAVE A HEATER TO KEEP THEM DE-ICED LIKE AIRPLANE WINGS.
WITH 4 HOURS OF ME OWNING THE CAR, THE EMISSIONS LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER SOME INVESTIGATION WITH THE DEALER, THERE WAS RODENT DAMAGE TO THE GAS TANK AND WIRING.
2017 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO TPMS WARNING LIGHT. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THE TPMS LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER STATED THERE WAS NO FAILURE. THE LIGHT ILLUMINATED REPEATEDLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. UPDATED 10/23/2017*JS
VEHICLE BATTERY DEAD AFTER SITTING FOR 3 HOURS. 3 WEEK OLD VEHICLE WITH 690 MILES. CHARGED THE BATTERY AND DROVE TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN CHECKED THE BATTERY, CHARGING SYSTEM AND STARTING SYSTEM. NO TROUBLE WAS FOUND. I GAVE A COPY OF HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 17-032 COVERING 'PARASITIC BATTERY DRAW FROM THE VSA MODULATOR' TO THE 'SERVICE ADVISOR' AND ASKED HIM TO SHOW IT TO THE SERVICE MANAGER. THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THAT MY VIN WASN'T COVERED BY THAT BULLETIN AND BECAUSE WHAT THEY LOOKED AT WAS IN WORKING ORDER THEY WOULDN'T DO ANYTHING ELSE TO ADDRESS THE CAUSE OF THE BEAD BATTERY. I TOLD THEM THAT THE ISSUE WASN'T ADDRESSED AND THAT I WILL HAVE THE VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALER WHEN IT HAPPENS AGAIN!
THE LEFT REAR AND CENTER REAR SEAT BELT BUCKLES, ARE OPPOSITE OF WHAT THEY SHOULD BE. THIS ARRANGEMENT MAKES IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER, TO BUCKLE UP IF THE CENTER SEAT PERSON IS BUCKLED IN, OR A CAR SEAT IS IN PLACE. CONTACTED MY HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY FORWARDED MY COMPLAINT TO THE DISTRICT REPRESENTATIVE, HIS RESPONSE WAS HE IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT THERE IS NO FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THE ACURA RDX IS THE SAME PLATFORM AS THE HONDA CR-V. SO I VISITED THE NEAREST ACURA DEALERSHIP, THE SEAT BELT BUCKLE ARRANGEMENT WAS CORRECT ON THAT ACURA RDX. LOOKS LIKE THE ANCHOR POINT AND THE BUCKLES ARE EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE ONES THAT ARE IN MY HONDA CR-V. WOULD BE WILLING TO BET THAT THE ACURA SEAT BELT ASSEMBLY WOULD SOLVE THE REAR SEAT BELT ISSUE ON THESE HONDA'S, THE ASSEMBLY IS ONLY $66.00! WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO DO THAT WHEN IT WASN'T MY MISTAKE IN DESIGNING IT. .UPDATED 11/09/17 *BF *JS UPDATED 7/27/18*JB
THE "TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM PROBLEM" LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME I DRIVE THE CAR AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE CAR HAS ONLY 3600 MILES ON IT. THE TIRES ARE PROPERLY INFLATED, BUT THE PROBLEM OCCURS REPEATEDLY AFTER ONLY ABOUT TEN MINUTES OF DRIVING. RECALIBRATION OF THE TPMS DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND THE CAR DEALERSHIP OFFERS NO SOLUTIONS. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR ABOUT A WEEK.
BATTERY DRAINS COMPLETELY FOR NO REASON WHEN VEHICLE IS PARKED. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE BATTERY. IT HAS HAPPENNED TWICE SINCE THEN AND DEALERSHIP DOES NOT PROVIDE A FIX.
I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA MANUFACTURED ALL ITS CARS WITH SOY BASED INSULATION ON WIRING WHICH CAN ATTRACT RATS TO CHEW. OBVIOUSLY, THIS IS A PROBLEM. WHEN I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP THEY WANTED ABOUT $500 TO FIX IT. I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS PROBLEM
2017 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ACCELERATION ISSUES. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND ABOVE 3000 RPM WHEN THE ACCELERATION PEDAL WAS PRESSED TO THE FLOOR. THE CONSUMER NO LONGER OWNS THE VEHICLE. UPDATED 10/05/2017*JS
RADIO DOES MUTE WHEN NAVIGATION SYSTEM GIVES VOICE COMMANDS, FORCING DRIVER TO LOOK AT DISPLAY AND THUS DISTRACTING DRIVER AT CRITICAL TIMES, E.G., INTERSECTIONS AND EXITS. HONDA STATES IT IS AWARE OF CONDITION BUT NO FIX APPEARS TO BE AVAILABLE.
TRANSMISSION & TRANSFER CASE LEAKING DUE TO DEFECT. NEW TRANSMISSION & TRANSFER CASE NEEDED TO BE INSTALLED.
GAS SMELL LIKE OPEN CONTAINER IN CABIN WHILE STATIONARY AT STOPLIGHT ALSO WHEN GARAGED OVERNIGHT NO FUEL ON GROUND OBSERVED WHILE GARAGED
BRAKES CAME ON HARD WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 73 MPH WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE IN LEFT LANE. NOTHING WAS AHEAD OF ME IN MY LANE. I WAS OVERTAKING A VEHICLE THAT WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE. THE HIGHWAY WAS VERY STRAIGHT. I BELIEVE THAT THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH THE COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO USE THE REAR PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT IN ORDER TO LATCH AND SECURE THE BUCKLE, THE BELT HAD TO UNDER LAP THE REAR SEAT CENTER BELT. THE ISSUE MADE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE SEAT BELT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (AUTONATION HONDA IN WESTMINSTER, CO), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.
DRIVING DOWN ANY ROAD WITH TAR STRIPS SOMETIMES CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO GIVE A WARNING (WHEEL SHAKE) OF LANE DEPARTURE. THIS IS EASILY OVERRIDDEN BY THE DRIVER, BUT IS VERY IRRITATING. IT MUST THINK THE TAR STRIPS ARE LANE MARKERS! WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL (ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL) IS ENGAGED, THE ACC CAN SOMETIMES JAM ON THE BRAKES WITH NO OBSTACLE IN THE PATH. IT HAPPENS WHEN CARS AHEAD ARE PULLING OFF TO THE LEFT OR RIGHT BUT ARE CLEARLY OUT OF THE LANE OF TRAVEL. THIS HAPPENED ON A TWO LANE UNDIVIDED SUBURBAN ROAD. I HAVE HAD TWO NEAR MISSES WITH FOLLOWING CARS HAVING TO BRAKE, AND TWO OTHER TIMES WITH NO CARS FOLLOWING. ONE EVENT HAPPENED ON A CURVE OF A TWO LANE DIVIDED ROAD WITH A CAR COMPLETELY IN THE LEFT HAND TURN LANE AHEAD WITH MY VEHICLE IN THE LANE OF TRAVEL. ACC JAMMED MY BRAKES ON CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO HIT THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THEN ACCELERATOR TO AVOID CARS BEHIND. THERE IS NO DEFEAT FOR THE ACC FUNCTION SO JUST REGULAR CRUISE CONTROL CAN BE USED. THIS CRUISE CONTROL IS NOT READY FOR PRIME TIME! HONDA JUST SAYS THEIR IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND THE SOFTWARE IS UP TO DATE. IT IS SO SCARY I'M CONSIDERING TRADING THIS VEHICLE FOR ONE THAT WON'T GET ME INTO AN ACCIDENT. THE SUBARU EYESIGHT SYSTEM IS REMARKABLY BETTER THAN THIS DISASTER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V442000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. AN UNKNOWN DEALER WAS CALLED AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REMEDY PART WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE IN THE FIRST QUARTER OF 2018. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.
INTERMITTENTLY THE AIR BAG SENSOR AND SEAT BELT WARNING FOR FRONT PASSENGER FAILS TO OPERATE FOR VARYING LENGTHS OF TIME. THE ERROR HAS SELF CORRECTED SPONTANEOUSLY AFTER 20 MINUTES AND UP TO AN HOUR AND A HALF OF DRIVING. THIS HAS ALWAYS OCCURRED WITH AN ADULT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. THE HONDA DEALER HAS NOT BEEN ABLE TO REPRODUCE THE ERROR, BUT HAS SEEN OUR PHOTO AND VIDEO SHOWING THE PROBLEM. HONDA USA OPENED AND CLOSED THE CASE BECAUSE IT WAS NOT REPRODUCIBLE AT OUR DEALER AND WE WERE TOLD THAT VIDEO CANNOT BE USED AS PROOF. (PHOTOS AND VIDEO ARE ON OUR PHONE. IF YOU SEND AN E-MAIL LINK WE CAN SEND THEM TO YOU FROM OUR PHONE IF YOU WALK US THROUGH THE PROCESS.) THIS HAS OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. IT WAS FIRST NOTICED ON APRIL 11, 2017. OUR VIDEOS ARE FROM AUGUST.
I BOUGHT MY CAR CERTIFIED PREOWNED FROM CAPITOL HONDA IN SAN JOSE. I WAS ASSURED THAT THE CAR HAD NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND IT WAS A LEASE TURN IN. I HAD MY AIRBAGS REPLACED LAST YEAR AND LAST WEEK I REAR ENDED A CAR AND MY CAR WAS TOTALED AND THE AIRBAGS NEVER WENT OFF. I HIT PRETTY HARD. THE REPORT FROM MY INSURANCE IS WHERE I FOUND OUT IT HAD BEEN IN TWO ACCIDENTS AND WAS A RENTAL. I SHOULD HAVE BEEN PRIVEY TO THAT INFORMATION WHEN I WAS A SHOPPER.
WINDSHIELD WIPERS IN AUTO MODE OPERATE ERRATICALLY AND UNPREDICTABLY. EVEN WITH SELECTOR KNOB AT THE MOST SENSITIVE POSITION, THE WIPERS OFTEN FAIL TO OPERATE EVEN WHEN THE WINDSHIELD IS COMPLETELY COVERED WITH WATER, WITH NO OPERATION FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS OR MORE. WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH A LIGHT RAIN, WIPERS FAIL TO RELIABLY OPERATE TO MAINTAIN CLEAR VISIBILITY EVEN WITH THE SELECTOR SET AT MAXIMUM SENSITIVITY. A COMMON SCENARIO IS DRIVING IN A STEADY RAIN WITH SOMEWHAT NORMAL (THOUGH ERRATIC) OPERATION AND THEN STOP AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING THE WINDSHIELD CAN BECOME TOTALLY COVERED WITH RAIN AND THE WIPERS DO NOT COME ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, SERIOUSLY IMPAIRING VISIBILITY. AFTER THE DRIVER REALIZES THAT THEY CAN NO LONGER SEE CLEARLY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD, MANUAL INTERVENTION IS NEEDED TO MOVE THE WIPER SELECTOR TO A CONTINUOUS OPERATING MODE TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD. VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AT THE DEALER FOR PROPER WIPER OPERATION. UPON ARRIVAL THE SERVICE WRITER USED A HOSE TO SPRAY LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER ON THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE WIPERS IN THE AUTO MODE AND THE VEHICLE IDLING, AND MADE SURE WATER WAS COVERING THE RAINDROP SENSOR AT THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE SERVICE WRITER CONFIRMED A LONG REACTION TIME BEFORE THE WIPERS ENGAGED. TECHNICIANS INSPECTED THE WIPER OPERATION IN THE SHOP AND CLAIM THAT IT WORKS AS INTENDED. APPARENTLY THE WIPERS ARE EITHER FAILING TO OPERATE ACCORDING TO THE DESIGN INTENT, OR THERE IS NO MALFUNCTION AND THE DESIGN IS FLAWED. IN EITHER CASE, RELYING ON THE AUTO MODE PRESENTS AN UNSAFE CONDITION DUE TO IMPAIRED VISIBILITY.
CAR BATTERY HAS DRAINED ON TWO OCCASIONS. CAR WON'T START. SYSTEM NEEDS ANTI THEFT RESET.
MY FIRST PROBLEM OCCURRED 3 MONTHS AFTER I HAD MY NEW CAR(@ 5609 MILES)....THE FIRST INCIDENT CAME OUT OF THE BLUE - ON MAY 11TH, 2017 I USED MY CAR AT 1 PM AND WHEN I TRIED TO LEAVE WORK AT 4:30 THE CAR DISPLAY FLASHED A BUNCH OF ODD MESSAGES AND THE CAR WOULDN'T TURN OVER. IT HAD A DEAD BATTERY! SO AN ONE AND A HALF LATER THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND I HAD TO GET A RIDE HOME AND TO AND FROM WORK THE NEXT DAY. HONDA SERVICE CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY AND SAID THAT THEY CHARGED THE CAR BATTERY AND THAT THE CAUSE WAS A PARASITIC DRAIN AND THAT I NEEDED TO PUT THE ELECTRIC BRAKE ON BEFORE I TURNED OFF THE CAR. THEY TOLD ME THAT HONDA WAS AWARE OF THIS ISSUES AND THAT THEY WERE WORKING ON A SOFTWARE FIX.... WELL TONIGHT (FRIDAY - AUG. 18TH, 2017) AS I WAS ABOUT TO GO OUT, THE CAR AGAIN HAS A DEAD BATTERY. NOW I'M STUCK HOME UNTIL TOMORROW WHEN I WILL HAVE TO SPEND SATURDAY TRYING TO GET THE CAR DRIVEABLE BY HONDA. SO I HAVE A NEW CAR (WITH 9300 MILES) I CAN'T DRIVE!!! WHAT HAPPENS IF I HAVE AN EMERGENCY? HONDA - IF YOU HAVE A FIX (WHICH I SEE ON SERVICE BULLETIN A17-032), WHEN CAN I GET MY CAR FIXED SO I CAN HAVE A CAR I CAN RELY ON? WHEN WILL YOU LIST MY VIN IN YOUR SERVICE BULLETIN A017-032 FOR PARASITIC BATTERY DRAW FROM VSA MODULATOR????? THIS IS NOT A GOOD BUSINESS PRACTICE AND NOT ONE I WOULD EXPECT FROM HONDA!
LETTER FROM SENATOR BROWN INQUIRY ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT IN REGARDS TO A 2017 HONDA CRV 1.5 AWD EX-L AND THE CAR SAYING IT CAME WITH A HD RADIO BUT DOES NOT. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED ACCORDING TO AN INVOICE THE VEHICLE WAS SUPPOSED TO BE EQUIPPED WITH AN HD RADIO, BUT IT WAS NOT INSTALLED. THE CONSUMER WAS ADVISED THAT SINCE THE NO COST WAS ADDED TO THE VEHICLE FOR THE RADIO IT WOULD NOT BE INSTALLED. THE CONSUMER REQUESTED TO HAVE THE RADIO INSTALLED OR RECEIVE IT'S FAIR MARKET VALUE. *JS
VEHICLE PARKED AT THE SIDE OF A RURAL ROAD, WHILE EATING LUNCH. CAME BACK AND FRONT PASSANGER WINDOW HAD EXPLODED. NOTHING STOLEN AND NO EVIDENCE OF IMPACT FROM ANY OBJECT. GLASS HAD 3M LAMINATE. THIS MAKES IT THE 3RD REPORT HERE REGARDING EXPLODING GLASSES.
WAS DRIVING 45MPH ON A STRAIGHT, FLAT ROAD, NO OTHER CARS AROUND. BRAKES SLAMMED ON AND THEN RELEASED. THERE WAS NOTHING IN FRONT OF ME OR BEHIND ME. I BELIEVE SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM. MY BACK AND NECK ARE VERY SORE. THERE WERE NO WARNINGS FROM THE SYSTEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V442000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE); HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANCHESTER HONDA DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE SEATED IN THE DRIVER'S SEAT, THE CONTACT OBSERVED THAT THE PADDING WAS COLLAPSED INSIDE THE SEAT BY THE SIDE AIR BAG. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO O'DANIEL HONDA (LOCATED ON 123 BEVERLY DR, OMAHA, NE 68114) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE PADDING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS TEMPORARILY REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE AND VIN WERE UNKNOWN. UPDATED 09/15/17*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE LEATHER ON THE BACK PART OF THE DRIVER'S SEAT WAS COLLAPSED ON THE LEFT SIDE BY THE DOOR. THE DEALER REPOSITIONED THE PADDING WHICH WAS A TEMPORARY FIX. THE CONSUMER INQUIRED IF THE FAILURE WOULD AFFECT THE AIRBAG. UPDATED 12/11/2017*JS
FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG OCCUPANCY SENSOR DOES NOT DETECT AN ADULT THAT IS 5' 3" TALL AND WEIGHS 100 LBS. THE VEHICLE KEEPS THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEACTIVATED.
THIS INCIDENT WAS 4 MONTHS AFTWR PURCHASE. I PARKED A FRIEND'S HOUSE, AND THE BATTERY DRAINED OVER THE COURSE OF 3 HOURS. I CAME OUT AND START THE CAR, AND IT WOULDNT START. THE CAR KEEP ON MAKING THIS CONTINUOUS BEEPING NOISE EVERY TIME I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. IT USUALLY ONLY DO THAT IF THE KEY ISN'T NEAR THE CAR, BUT THIS TIME THE KEYS ARE ON ME. THE TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN NO MATTER WHAT YOU PRESS. I HAD TO GET MY FRIEND TO JUMP THE CAR WITH CABLES. WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME, IT DIDN'T SHOW THE NORMAL SCREEN, BUT IT SHOWED SOME ANTI THEFT MESSAGE. ONCE I GOT HOME, IT TOLD ME TO HOLD DOWN FOR LONGER THAN TWO SECONDS TO HAVE THE SYSTEM RESTART. I DID THAT BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I LEFT IT OVER NIGHT AND IT WAS NORMAL AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. RIGHT NOW, AS I'M WRITING THIS COMPLAINT, THERE'S ANOTHER PROBLEM. AN HOUR AGO, I PARKED AT A RESTAURANT'S PARKING LOT. I CAME OUT 40 MINUTES LATER AND CANNOT START THR CAR. THE DISPLAY IN FRONT OF ME IS SHOWING "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM. " I'M WAITING THE THE TOW PEOPLE TO TOW MY CAR RIGHT NOW. IN SIX MONTHS I HAVE EXPERIENCED 2 MAJOR PROBLEMS WHICH CAUSE QUITE AN INCONVENIENCE.
MY CAR DOES NOT GIVE ANY AUDIO ALERT WHEN I SHUT OFF THE CAR AND HAVE IT IN GEAR. MY CAR ROLLED AWAY FROM PARKING SPOT AND HIT ANOTHER CAR WHEN I WAS NOT IN IT. PER AGAIN, A TRADITIONAL KEY CANNOT BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS IN 'PARK.' FMVSS 114 IS QUITE CLEAR ON THIS POINT: SINCE 1992, THE STANDARD HAS REQUIRED VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS THAT HAVE A PARK POSITION TO HAVE A KEY-LOCKING SYSTEM THAT PREVENTED REMOVAL OF THE KEY UNLESS THE TRANSMISSION WAS LOCKED IN PARK OR BECAME LOCKED IN PARK AS THE DIRECT RESULT OF REMOVING THE KEY. THIS IS A PUSH START AND IT DOES NOT BEEP OR ANYTHING LETTING ME KNOW IT IS NOT IN PARK. THE GEAR SHIFTIER DOES NOT SHOW WHAT GEAR IT IS IN. NHTSA IS PURPORTING TO ADDRESS THESE PROBLEMS WITH A NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULEMAKING, PUBLISHED IN DECEMBER 2011, WITH A NEW RELIANCE ON AUDIBLE WARNINGS, BASED ON THOSE ALREADY REQUIRED IN FMVSS 403 (WHEELCHAIR LIFTS). THE AGENCY OFFERED NO HUMAN FACTORS RESEARCH TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THESE WARNINGS WOULD BE EFFECTIVE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPEN IN THE DECEMBER 2011 REGARDING CARS HAVING THE AUDIO ABLE WARNING TO LET DRIVERS KNOW. I AM HAPPY THAT NO ONE WAS HURT ONLY MY CAR AND THE OTHER CAR BUT THIS COULD OF KILLED SOMEONE WALKING BY AND THAT IS WHY THE WAS WAS PUT IN PLACE. HONDA SAYS IT PUTS A MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN WHEN YOU SHUT IT OFF, DID NOT SEE THAT MESSAGE AS I WAS EXITING THE CAR THAT IS WHY THERE SHOULD BE A AUDIO SOUND.
DRIVER'S SEAT HAS COLLAPSED ON LEFT SIDE RIGHT BELOW THE AIR BAG TAG. TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER. THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM. THEY DID A QUICK FIX, BUT IT DID NOT WORK. DOES THIS PROBLEM AFFECT THE FUNCTION OF THE AIR BAG? I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE 4/28/17, AND THE SEAT HAS BEEN MESSED UP FOR ABOUT TWO MONTHS.
EVERY COUPLES OF HOURS ALARM SYSTEM SOUNDS LOUD AND WAKES US UP. WE MADE SURE ALL CAR 4 DOORS AND WINDOWS ARE CLOSED BUT NOTHING HELPED. THIS HAPPENED AT 3PM, AT 5:26 PM, AT 10:36 PM, AT MIDNIGHT, AT 4:15 AM. VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN THE GARAGE
I AM LISTENING TO AM RADIO. IN NORMAL CITY STREETS. WHEN I GO UNDER A HIGH POWER LINE, THERE IS TREMENDOUS STATIC NOISE AND RADIO VOICE IS COMPLETELY DROWNED OUT. IT IS VERY LOUD. I HAVE OTHER CARS THAT DOES NOT DO THIS ON THE SAME ROAD. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THIS EMI INTERFERENCE ON THE REST OF THE ELECTRONIC SYSTEM. DEALER IS NOT AWARE OF ANY RECALL ISSUES AND CANNOT FIX. CALLED HONDA.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THE SEAT BELTS FOR THE REAR MIDDLE AND LEFT PASSENGER SEATS WERE SWITCHED, WHICH MADE IT DIFFICULT FOR THE PASSENGERS TO BUCKLE THEIR SEAT BELTS WHEN THE MIDDLE SEAT WAS OCCUPIED, ESPECIALLY BY A SAFETY SEAT. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE RALPH SCHOMP HONDA DEALER WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE SEAT BELTS WERE ANCHORED DOWN, WHICH PREVENTED THE DEALER FROM SWITCHING THE SEAT BELT BUCKLES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE PLACEMENT OF THE SEAT BELTS WAS APPROVED BY NHTSA SAFETY STANDARDS AND COULD NOT BE ALTERED. THE MANUFACTURER OPENED CASE NUMBER: 06136375. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 293.
BRAND NEW 2017 CR-V TOURING, SECOND NIGHT HOME. BATTERY COMPLETELY DRAINED WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT AND HAD TO CHARGE BATTERY TO START. TOOK TO DEALER, WHO DID A BATTERY TEST AND FOUND NO ISSUE. THERE IS A HONDA TSB CAMPAIGN, BUT HONDA TELLS ME MY VIN IS OUT OF RANGE AND IS NOT COVERED -- EVEN THOUGH THE SYMPTOMS ARE IDENTICAL. THEY WILL NOT OFFER SERVICE UNTIL THE VIN IS WITHIN RANGE. REFERENCE HONDA TSB-032 "PARASITIC BATTERY DRAW FROM VSA MODULATOR" HONDA AMERICA SUPPORT SUGGESTED I REPORT THIS TO NHTSA, FOR SOME REASON. STATED THAT IF THEY RECEIVE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS FOR A VIN RANGE IT COULD BE EXPANDED. (THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME SINCE I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH THEM.)
FAULTY HONDA SENSING WAS DRIVING AT APPROX 35MPH WHEN CRV SLAMMED ON IT'S ON BRAKES BY ITSELF FOR THE 2ND TIME THANK GOD NO ONE WAS BEHIND US, HIGH BEAMS COME ON WHEN CLOSE TO ON COMING TRAFFIC BLINDING ON COMING TRAFFIC, BLIND SPOT INDICATOR COMES ON WHEN NO ONE AROUND, BLIND SPOT INDICATOR DOESN'T COME ON, WHEN CARS IN BLIND SPOT,DIDN'T SEE CAR IN MY BLIND SPOT AND CUT CAR OFF BECAUSE BLIND SPOT INDICATOR WASN'T WORKING. BURNING WIRE SMELL INSIDE CAB. MOST OF THESE PROBLEMS HAVE BEEN HAPPENING SINCE APPROX JAN 2017 LESS THAN 1 MONTH OF OWNING CAR. I CAN'T LIST JUST 1 DAY ITS HAPPENED BECAUSE IT'S HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER AND OVER. CRV HAS BEEN IN SHOP 5-6 TIMES FOR THESE PROBLEMS WITH NO LUCK OF FIXING THEM.
DRIVER SIDE CUSHION ON UPPER SEAT HAS COLLAPSED. THIS AFFECTS THE OPERATION OF THE SIDE AIR BAG. THE COLLAPSED SUPPORT ALSO MAKES DRIVING UNCOMFORTABLE AND POTENTIALLY A DRIVER SAFETY RISK AS WELL.
WAS NOTIFIED BY NEIGHBOR THAT MY PASSENGER WINDOW BEHIND DRIVER SIDE WAS BROKEN. CONTACTED POLICE AND THEY SAID IT WAS PROBABLY A ROCK ON THE ROAD THAT FLUNG AND HIT THE WINDOW AND SHATTERED IT. NO SCRATCHES ON THE CAR, NO ITEMS WERE STOLEN. DID NOT FIND ANY ROCKS OR STONES IN THE CAR WHERE IT COULD POTENTIALLY BE VANDALISM. SEEMS AS THOUGH THIS MAYBE A WINDOW DEFECT SIMILAR TO THE OTHER POST REGARDING HIS SUN-ROOF.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT HAD STARTED TO DETERIORATE FROM THE LEFT CUSHION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHECKERED FLAG HONDA DEALER, WHERE IT WAS INFORMED THAT HONDA WAS AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DOES NOT HAVE A REMEDY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

THE INDICATOR LIGHT FOR THE PASSENGER AIR BAG ('AIR BAG OFF') DOES NOT OPERATE CONSISTENTLY. A 112 POUND PASSENGER REGULARLY RIDES IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OF THIS VEHICLE. SOMETIMES WHEN THIS PASSENGER IS PRESENT, THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT ('AIRBAG OFF') ILLUMINATES AND STAYS ILLUMINATED DURING TRAVEL. AT OTHER TIMES IT DOES NOT ILLUMINATE AT ALL DURING TRIPS WHEN THE PASSENGER IS PRESENT. THE INDICATOR LIGHT IS MORE LIKELY TO REMAIN ON WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STARTED BEFORE THE PASSENGER ENTERS THE CAR. THIS PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED FOR 4 MONTHS.
BOUGHT A 2017 HONDA CRV THIS MARCH. DROVE FINE FOR 3 MONTHS & 3K MILES. ON 6/7/17 THE REAR WINDSHIELD EXPLODED. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AT MY WORK PLACE. IT WAS A HOT 92 DEGREE DAY. A COWORKER DROVE BY & HEARD A LOUD POP & SHE NOTICE MY DAMAGED WINDOW & CANE TO NOTIFY ME ASAP. THE GLASS CLEARLY EXPLODED BECAUSE ALL INDICATIONS OF THE BULGING OF GLASS HAS PUFFED OUTWARD FROM MY CAR. THERE'S A HUGE 1 FOOT WIDE HOLE IN THE CENTER LEFT, IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN A CHICK IS HATCHING FROM ITS EGG. THERE'S ONLY 2 CHUNKS OF GLASS BROKEN FROM THE HOLE, ONE INTO CAR, THE OTHER RESTED OUTSIDE THE HOLE ON THE WIPER. IF ANYTHING HITS IT, THE GLASS WOULD OF SHATTERED IN THE CENTER & THE WOULD SHOWS WHITE BIG STRESS-MARKS EXPANDING FROM THE HOLE. YET NONE. MY WHOLE WINDOW SHATTERED STARTING FROM BOTH ENDS OF THE REAR WINDSHIELD, DISCONNECTING THE WHOLE GLASS FROM THE CAR. I WORK AS A QA MEMBER & WE SUPPLY PARTS FOR HONDA. I MEASURE MANY OF THE PARTS WE SUPPLIED. SO I'M NOT STUPID TO MENTION TO HONDA MY GLASS EXPLODED. I DID MY RESEARCH & CAME ACROSS MANY OF THESE PROBLEMS, EVEN SOME WERE REPORTED HERE IN THIS FORUM. I TOOK GREAT PIC & VIDEOS OF THE INCIDENT & SHOWED BOTH MY DEALERSHIP & HONDA CORPORATE & EXPRESSED GREATLY THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. PERHAPS A BAD DEFECT LIKE A BAD DEFROSTING UNIT WHERE IT FAILS TO SHUT OFF AFTER ENGINE SHUTS OFF OR BASICALLY DEFECT WITHIN THE GLASS DURING MANUFACTURING PROCESS WITH NICKEL SULFIDE IN GLASS. HONDA DOES NOT COVER GLASS UNDER THEIR WARRANTIES SO AS SOON AS I MENTION BROKEN GLASS, THEY DIVERT AROUND MY QUESTIONS OR GIVES OTHER POSSIBLE CAUSES. I'M A QA MEMBER WHO MAKES & MEASURE PARTS FOR THEM I'M NOT THAT DUMB. YET HONDA WILL NOT INVESTIGATE THIS WHEN IT CLEARLY CONCERN CUSTONER'S SAFETY, MINE TO BE EXACT. NOW I HAVE TO SPENT $500 TO FIX IT & I FELT HONDA COULD OF LOOK INTO THIS, PHYSICALLY. THERE CLEARLY IS A DEFECTED FACTOR SOMEWHERE.
THE REAR LEFT AND MIDDLE SEAT BELTS OVERLAP. THE VEHICLE IS ADVERTISED AS A 5 SEATER VEHICLE BUT CANNOT SAFELY BE USED FOR 5 PASSENGERS, OR WITH A CAR SEAT IN EITHER OF THOSE SEATS WITH A PASSENGER IN THE OTHER ONE.
FREQUENT NOXIOUS GAS FUMES IN THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. OFTEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SITTING IDLE, OR STARTING, THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS IN THE CABIN. THIS ISSUE BEGAN A COUPLE WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE (FEBRUARY 3) AND HAS HAPPENED MOST RECENTLY ON MAY 28. THE INCIDENT ON MAY 28 WAS SO TOXIC THAT I DEVELOPED A HEADACHE AND HAD TO OPEN ALL WINDOWS TO TRY TO RELIEVE THE ISSUE.
WHERE LEFT REAR PASSENGER ATTACHES SEAT BELT & WHERE CENTER REAR PASSENGER ATTACHES SEATBELT FROM HEADLINER, THE FASTENERS IN THE SEAT ARE SWITCHED. IF CENTER PASSENGER BUCKLES UP FIRST OR IF CARSEAT IS IN CENTER POSITION IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR LEFT REAR PASSENGER TO BUCKLE UP OR UNBUCKLE. THIS IS DUE TO THE ATTACHMENT POINTS BEING SWITCHED WHEN DESIGNED & OR MANUFACTURED. HONDA DEALER SAYS THE CONNECTIONS ARE IN PROPER LOCATION & BELT IS OPERATING AS DESIGNED. THIS WILL MOST LIKELY CAUSE ONE OF FIVE PASSENGERS IN THIS VEHICLE TO NOT BE ABLE TO BUCKLE UP OR UNBUCKLE IN AN EMERGENCY
I DROVE DOWN THE HIGHWAY 65 MILES PER HOUR WHEN SUDDENLY THE CAR COMPUTER GOT STUCK AND THEN STARTED AGAIN GIVING DIFFERENT ERRORS. DEACTIVATED BRAKE SYSTEM, FRAME MISSING GASOLINE, FRAME ROAD STABILIZATION SYSTEM DEACTIVATED AND FINALLY SPEED CONTROL FRAME SPEED A FAULT.
CAR PARKED AT STORE. PLACED 6 YR OLD CHILD INTO CAR TO UNLOAD CART WITHOUT FEAR OF PARKING LOT DRIVERS. TRUNK OPEN AT THAT POINT. CHILD ASKED FOR A/C (94F OUTSIDE - HOTTER IN CAR). WITH THE REMOTE, I PERFORMED "REMOTE START" SEQUENCE. THIS DID NOT WORK WITH TRUNK OPEN. I CLOSED TRUNK, PERFORMED START SEQUENCE, RE-OPENED TRUNK TO LOAD GROCERIES. AFTER DONE, I CLOSED TRUNK, MOVED CART TO FRONT OF CAR. MEANWHILE, INSIDE CAR, MY CHILD HIT THE START BUTTON. THIS PLACED THE VEHICLE INTO AUXILIARY POWER MODE (THINK RADIO ON WITHOUT ENGINE RUNNING). HAZARD TO LIFE: ONCE CAR IS IN AUXILIARY MODE, IF THE DOORS ARE LOCKED, THE CAR CANNOT BE OPENED IN ANY WAY FROM THE OUTSIDE. THE KEY REMOTE WILL NOT WORK OPEN CAR (CAR WILL BEEP ONLY ONCE EACH TIME). TOUCHING HANDLE TO UNLOCK DOES NOT WORK (AGAIN ONE BEEP). THE TRUNK CANNOT BE OPENED WITH REMOTE, WITH THE HANDS-FREE FEATURE, OR WITH THE NORMAL "OPEN BUTTONS" ON TRUNK. CHILD WAS LOCKED IN A HOT CAR WITH NO WAY TO GET TO HER!! CHILD COULD NOT OPEN WINDOWS BY HERSELF (DON'T KNOW IF IT WOULDN'T WORK DUE TO AUXILIARY MODE OR IF SHE DIDN'T KNOW HOW). ULTIMATELY I WAS ABLE TO TALK HER THROUGH MANUALLY UNLOCKING DOOR, BUT IF SHE WAS EXPERIENCING A MEDICAL EMERGENCY OR DID NOT HAVE THE INTELLECT, THIS COULD HAVE HAD A VERY BAD ENDING. I HAVE THE TOP OF THE LINE MODEL, WITH ALL THE OPTIONAL SAFETY FEATURES (MIRRORS, SENSORS, EVERYTHING), YET SOMETHING LIKE THIS STILL HAPPENED. THERE NEEDS TO BE A FAIL SAFE! HOW MANY CHILDREN COULD CLIMB INTO THE CAR AND INADVERTENTLY LOCK THE DOORS WHILE "PLAY DRIVING" BY HITTING THE START BUTTON, PLACING CAR INTO AUXILIARY AND PARENTS CANNOT GET IN TO THEM! OMG HONDA - PLEASE FIX THIS ASAP BEFORE SOMEONE DIES.
COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM IS MALFUNCTIONING WHEN DRIVING OVER METAL PLATES: DURING CONSTRUCTION, METAL PLATES WERE PUT ON THE ROAD WHERE I WORK. THEY DO NOT STICK OUT, AREA FLUSH WITH THE STREET, AND ARE ABOUT 4 FEET WIDE. EVERY TIME I GET CLOSE TO DRIVE STRAIGHT OVER THEM (AT PROBABLY 20-25 MPH), MY CAR SLAMS ONTO THE BRAKES AND COMES TO A COMPLETE STOP. IF ANYBODY WERE BEHIND ME, THEY WOULD REAR-END ME. A COLLEAGUE OF MINE BOUGHT THE SAME CAR AND HAS EXACTLY THE SAME PROBLEM. I HAD MY CAR CHECKED OUT AT A HONDA DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME EVERYTHING IS WORKING PROPERLY. THE SYSTEM CANNOT BE TURNED OFF PERMANENTLY, SO I HAVE TO TURN IT OFF MANUALLY EVERY TIME I START THE CAR. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS, AS SOMEBODY WILL GET HURT SOON IF SOMEBODY IS BEHIND ME AND THERE IS NO REASON I WOULD COME TO SUCH AN ABRUPT STOP.
REAR PASSENGER SEAT BELT ATTACHMENT POINTS SAFETY HAZARD FOR LEFT REAR PASSENGER: THE CONNECTION POINTS FOR THE CENTER REAR PASSENGER AND LEFT REAR PASSENGER CROSS CAUSING THE LEFT PASSENGER TO NOT HAVE ACCESS TO THE RELEASE BUTTON OR ABILITY TO PROPERLY CONNECT THEIR SEAT BELT IF THE CENTER PASSENGER SECURES THEIR SEAT BELT FIRST. SHOULD THE LEFT PASSENGER WANT TO DISCONNECT THEIR SEAT BELT IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT UNLESS THE CENTER PASSENGER DISCONNECTS THEIR SEAT BELT FIRST. I CONTACTED THE HONDA DEALER I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE FROM AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO. I CONTACTED HONDA CUSTOMER CARE LINE AT 1-800-999-1009 AND WAS INFORMED NO FIX WAS AVAILABLE, BUT THEY WOULD DOCUMENT THE ISSUE.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE ENTIRE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER, INCLUDING THE SPEEDOMETER TURN SIGNAL INDICATORS, FUEL GAUGE, GEAR SHIFT POSITION INDICATOR, TACHOMETER, ODOMETER, AND LIGHTING FAILED TO WORK WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT, TURNED OFF, AND RESTARTED THE ENGINE. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE INSTRUMENT PANEL RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 05988063. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,000. UPDATED 06/07/17*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. UPDATED 10/11/2017*JS
WHEN USING THE NAVIGATION THE NAVIGATION VOICE VOLUME IS TOO LOW. CAUSING YOU TO BRAKE WHEN MISSING A TURN. I ALMOST HAD SOMEONE RUN INTO THE BACK OF THE CAR!
REAR PASSENGER SEAT BEHIND DRIVER AND MIDDLE PASSENGER SEAT BELT FASTENERS ARE FLIPPED. NO ONE CAN SIT BEHIND THE DRIVER AND USE A SEAT BELT.
THE VEHICLE IS PROVIDED WITH A BLUETOOTH CAPABILITY TO PROVIDE SAFE HANDS FREE USE OF A CELL PHONE. HOWEVER, WITHIN A MINUTE OF INITIATION OF THE BLUETOOTH WITH A STANDARD ANDROID PHONE (SAMSUNG) THE SYSTEM SELF DISCONNECTS THERE-BY RENDERING THE HANDS FREE CAPABILITY NON OPERATIONAL. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHETHER MOVING OR STATIONARY. BOTH THE DEALER AND HONDA FACTORY REPRESENTATIVE CAN NOT DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND CHECKING ON THE INTERNET INDICATES THAT THIS EXACT UNSAFE CONDITION HAS BEEN KNOW TO HONDA FOR AT LEAST 3 YEARS. THIS ELECTRONIC SYSTEM FAULT IS AS MUCH OF A SAFETY ISSUE AS FAULTY BRAKES, ETC.
WHILE DRIVING @ 35 MPH ON THE PARKWAY I HEARD A LOUD POP COMING FROM THE ROOF AREA OF THE CAR. I THEN OPEN TO SUNROOF SCREEN TO FIND THE GLASS WAS SHATTERED BUT DID NOT SEE ANY TREE BRANCH IN SITE. THE ROOF HAVE NO DENT OR SCRATCH ON IT WITH WAS WEIRD. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT IT COULD BE "EXPLODING SUNROOF" ISSUE.
WEATHER TECK DRIVER FLOOR MAT. WHEN PASSING DOES NOT ALLOW ACELL. PEDAL TO FULLY BOTTOM. THUS FULL POWER IS NOT AVAILABLE. BUMP IN MAT STOPS FULL ACELL. PEDAL TRAVEL.
MY MOTHER AND I TRAVELED TO VISIT MY DAUGHTER THAT LIVES 3 1/2 HOURS AWAY. MY MOTHER SAT IN THE PASSENGER SEAT FOR THE 7 HOUR TRIP UP AND BACK. THE AMBER OR YELLOW LIGHT ON THE DASH "PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF" WAS LIGHTED THE ENTIRE TIME THAT MY MOTHER WAS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. ADMITTED SHE ONLY WEIGHS 100 LBS AND IS 86 YEARS OLD, BUT SHE IS CLEARLY AN ADULT AND SHOULD BE PROTECTED BY AN AIRBAG DEPLOYING IN CASE OF A SERIOUS CRASH. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYING IN A CRASH COULD LITERALLY MEAN THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN LIFE AND DEATH.
PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG INDICATOR DOES NOT TURN OFF, THEREFORE THE AIRBAG DOES NOT ACTIVATE, WHEN A PERSON WEIGHING SIGNIFICANTLY MORE (100LBS) THAN THE STATED THRESHOLD OF 65LBS AS DESCRIBED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL. THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY CONCERN SINCE THE PASSENGER IS NOT PROTECTED BY THE AIRBAG. HONDA DEALER CLAIMS THE WEIGHT SENSOR IS CORRECTLY CALIBRATED AND WORKING PROPERLY ACCORDING TO HONDA. THE CONCERN IS THAT THIS TOLERANCE OF MORE THAN 35LBS IS WAY TOO HIGH AND THE AIRBAG NEEDS TO ACTIVATE MUCH CLOSER TO THE STATED THRESHOLD OF 65LBS.
MY BRAND NEW 2017 CRV TOURING APPEARS TO HAVE THE DETACHABLE ANCHOR FOR THE 2ND ROW CENTER SEAT BELT CROSSED WITH THE 2ND ROW LEFT SEAT BELT BUCKLE. THIS CONFIGURATION CAUSES THE CENTER BELT AND THE LEFT SEAT BELT TO CROSS ONE ANOTHER AND ALSO MAKES IT DIFFICULT FOR THE LEFT SEAT PASSENGER TO CONNECT OR DISCONNECT THEIR SEAT BELT WITH THE CENTER PASSENGER BUCKLED IN. THIS CONFIGURATION DOES NOT ALLOW THE PERSON SITTING BEHIND THE DRIVER TO WEAR THEIR SEAT BELT WHEN MY CHILD'S INFANT SEAT IS BUCKLED INTO THE CENTER AS THE BUCKLE CANNOT BE ACCESSED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS I TRAVEL FREQUENTLY WITH MY INFANT DAUGHTER, SON, AND SON'S FRIEND IN THE BACK SEAT. THERE HAVE BEEN MULTIPLE OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS WHICH CAN BE GOOGLED. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE HERE.
ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND MESSAGE SAID EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM AND THE HEADLIGHTS GOT HIGH AND THEN LOW AND THEN HIGH AND THEN LOW. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP SAID THAT RODENTS CHEWED THE ENGINE MAIN WIRING HARNESS AND WOULD COST $1,000 TO REPLACE. IF THE WIRING HARNESS IN THE ENGINE IS NOT PROTECTED THAT COULD EASILY START A FIRE AFTER IT HAS BEEN CHEWED BY RODENTS. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THIS HARNESS IS NOT PROTECTED AGAINST RODENTS. I LIVE IN A CONDO WITH A PRIVATE PARKING SPOT. I HAVE BEEN HERE 17 YEARS AND NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM. I BOUGHT THE CAR A MONTH AGO. IT IS POSSIBLE IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED AT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP BUT NO WAY OF KNOWING. THE BOTTOM LINE IS THE CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED AND THE WIRING HARNESS COVERED WITH A PROTECTION OF SOME SORT. I AM RETIRED SO I HARDLY USE THE CAR. IT IS PARKED MOST OF THE TIME IN MY PARKING SPOT.
TEST DROVE THE CAR AND DIDN'T SMELL DUE TO USING A/C. ON DAY OF PURCHASE, I CHANGED THE AIR TO RECIRCULATE IN CABIN. THAT IS WHEN THE INSIDE OF VEHICLE STARTED SMELLING LIKE GAS WITH RECIRCULATING AIR ON. IN THE FIRST FEW MINUTES I DID NOT NOTICE THE SMELL AND ASSUMED IT WAS THE "BRAND NEW" CAR SMELL BUT LATER AFTER GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SMELL BECAME VERY NOTICEABLE AND CAUSED ME TO FEEL DIZZY AND ALMOST VOMIT. I PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED THE CAR TO SEE WHERE THE SMELL WAS COMING FROM AND NOTICED THE SMELL WAS MAINLY IN THE SECOND ROW PASSENGER AREA, WHERE MY 3 MONTH OLD CHILD AND WIFE WERE SITTING! I OPENED ALL THE DOORS AND FOR SOME REASON CHANGED AIR VENT FROM RECIRCULATING TO FRESH AIR MODE. WAS LATE AT NIGHT AND CALLED SALESMAN BUT HE COULD NOT HELP ME WITH ANYTHING OTHER THAN TELLING ME TO BRING IT IN THE NEXT MORNING. I HAD WORK IN THE MORNING SO I DECIDED TO JUST BEAR WITH IT AND OPEN THE WINDOWS IF THE SMELL BECAME TOO UNBEARABLE. AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES, THE SMELL STARTED TO SLOWLY FADE AWAY. I HAVE YET TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AGAIN AND WILL SEE IF THE GAS SMELL COMES BACK WITH THE RECIRCULATING MODE ON. ALSO, THE SMELL WAS NOT NOTICEABLE WITH ENGINE OFF, SINCE THE AIR VENTS WERE ALSO OFF.
DRIVING MY 2017 CRV EX HOME FROM WORK. STOPPED AT RED LIGHT, FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL. WHEN THE TRAFFIC SIGNAL TURNED GREEN, I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND A MESSAGE CAME UP ON THE DASHBOARD SCREEN "BRAKE SYSTEM FAILURE". THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. I TURNED ONTO A SIDE STREET AND TRIED TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT IT WAS FROZEN AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. I PULLED INTO A PARKING LOT AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN 'PARK', AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I LEASED THE VEHICLE. THE SALES REP SUGGESTED I TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND RESTART IT. I DID THAT AND ALL SYSTEMS SEEMED TO FUNCTION PROPERLY. I LATER TOOK MY CRV BACK TO THE DEALER, AND THEY DID A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK BUT FOUND NO DEFINITIVE PROBLEM. THE TECHNICIAN COULD ONLY SAY THE COMPUTER INDICATED SOMETHING HAD OCCURRED BUT COULD SAY WHAT, OR WHY, OR WHETHER IT MIGHT OCCUR AGAIN. THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM, AND EVERYTHING SEEMED OK, AND "HAVE A NICE DAY!" NOW I AM ANXIOUS WHEN I DRIVE WONDERING IF, OR WHEN, THE BRAKE SYSTEM MIGHT FAIL AGAIN. IS IT JUST MY CRV, OR HAS THIS ISSUE BEEN REPORTED BY ANYONE ELSE? THIS ISSUE, SHOULD IT OCCUR AGAIN WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC, COULD RESULT IN A SERIOUS CRASH SITUATION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE ASSOCIATED WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT RECORDED THE ABNORMAL NOISE AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE MECHANIC TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND THE MANUFACTURER AUTHORIZED THAT THE FUEL TANK BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE NOISE RECURRED DAYS LATER. THE CONTACT HAD BEEN UNABLE TO RECEIVE A SOLUTION FROM THE DEALER AND WAS WAITING ON A RESPONSE FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8.
RODENTS KEEP CHEWING THROUGH AIR HOSES FOR THE EMISSIONS SYSTEM. IT'S HAPPENED TWICE IN A WEEK DESPITE TRAPS, RODENT DETERRENT, ETC.
▸ Engine stalling at speed — fuel delivery failure can cause sudden loss of power in traffic or on highways
▸ Loss of power steering assist — vehicle becomes difficult to control especially at low speeds and during parking
The blue line shows 1698 total NHTSA complaints filed over 10 years, with the worst year being 2018 (418 complaints, including 9 crash reports).
The amber reliability line averaged 10/100 across the vehicle's life — dropping as low as 10 in 2017 when complaint severity peaked.
The red dashed line marks recall issuance — the first recall came 6 years after owners began filing complaints, a lag that indicates the manufacturer was slow to formally acknowledge these problems.
Red dots on the amber line flag 10 years (2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024, 2025, 2026) where complaints included crash events — these are the highest-severity incidents in the dataset.
In cold climates, the 1.5L turbocharged engine allows gasoline to enter the engine oil during short trips, causing the oil level to rise above the maximum mark and reducing lubrication effectiveness. Honda issued a special warranty coverage program for vehicles primarily operated in Alaska, Colorado, Idaho, Iowa, Maine, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, New Hampshire, North Dakota, South Dakota, Vermont, Wisconsin, and Wyoming.
Coverage eligibility depends on your VIN, original sale date, and current mileage. Always verify with an authorized dealer or manufacturer customer service — programs may have been updated since this database was compiled.
- ▸1.5L VTEC Turbo: fuel dilutes engine oil in cold climates — oil level rises above max, reducing lubrication effectiveness
