2014 Honda CR-V SUV 4WD

Driver side 's air vent heat vent is not working properly. During winter, the windshield is not fully warm and hard to do defrost. According to Honda, they recognized the issue of heator core and had issued a service bulletin about the issues of heater core problem to remove clogging. It should be recalled to fix the issue rather than making the owner replacing the expensive part. Thank you.

Upon cold start-up, loud noise comes @ initial start for a second or two when turning the key. The car then starts up and the noise goes away. It won't happen after the car is initially started. It will occur again when the car sits for a couple of hours. My mechanic said that it's somewhere in one of the cylinders.

1) The system is draining the battery while at rest. Have replaced battery 3 times, including last one several months ago. Dealership cannot fix. Safety: Getting stranded is a huge safety issue. 2) Car shimmies accelerating uphill. Dealer cannot seem to duplicate. Safety: Affects confidence while driving. 3) Tire pressure sensor is constantly firing off.

Pulling into a parking space, when hitting my brakes, the engine suddenly accelerated and no, I was not pushing both the gas pedal and brake at the same time. In doing a web search, I found many instances of other CRV owners having the same issue...sudden acceleration when braking

My Honda has had the front axle replaced twice and now the Honda Dealership is stating it needs to be replaced a third time. The Passenger side also had to have the knuckle or whatever replaced where the tire extends. I mostly drive my child to school and myself to work and or highway driving. I have own cars since I was 16, am now quite past that year and have never had to have the front axle replaced three (3) times?? Driving is very difficult but there is nothing I can do about it - the cost each time is close to 2K. Thanks

The transmission shudders and shakes under light acceleration at speed 20-30 mph. looks like this is a known issue by Honda. check the bulletin (15-086 and 17-040) https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/mc-10108735-9999.pdf https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2017/mc-10108737-9999.pdf (the document says : the warranty is 8 years or 80,000 miles, whichever comes first.) There are service bulletins out from Honda with corrective actions to be taken Honda wants to charge to perform the fix with no guarantee it will solve the known problem.

VTC actuator is faulty and HONDA will not replace and now I'm being told that I need a new TIMING CHAIN also from the VTC actuator not functioning properly. A TIMING CHAIN that should last the life of the engine has FAILED at 90K miles. Why don't you make HONDA issue a recall instead of sticking the owners with large expensive repair bills when HONDA has issued a service bulletin that the actuator is flawed. This is out of their service bulletin 16-012..... "The variable valve timing control (VTC) actuator is defective. CORRECTIVE ACTION Replace the VTC actuator. "

2014 Honda CRV rattling noise upon cold start at 20,000 miles into owning vehicle. Dealership could not locate the problem nor witness the problem each time we reported this whenever we brought the car in for oil changes...Problem became progressively worse over the years. Now that the rattling is essentially heard every time the car is started, we have taken it in. We are told we need a "new engine" because we need a new VTC actuator. We are also told that the car is burning oil. The new engine costs $4800 (NJ). Will this solve the problem that obviously is a Honda defect? Will the new engine have VTC actuators that will not fall apart in 1 year?... Honda has known about this problem for YEARS!

Two times in the past seven years, the starter of the car has required to be replaced. There seem to be thousands of similar complaints about the problem with the starter for the 2014 Honda CRV.

Cold Start: CVT actuator problems

VTC Actuator Timing valve rattles at cold start on highway when going over 50-65mph engine rattles very hard and vehicle shakes to point have to pull over. Looked all over online and thousands of customers have same issue even lawsuits. Took to Middletown NY Honda and they say out of warranty and nothing they can do but pay $1500to replace a known faulty part that once replaced could happen again or cause catstrostapic engine damage. please make a recall

We are having repeat problems with the VTC Actuator. This was replaced in 2018 under warranty but has since recurred. Our car is now at the dealer with a diagnostic of timing chain, vtc actuator, and cam gear for a cost of 2100 dollars. It is no longer under warranty and the cost is being passed on to us. This complaint is all over the internet and it is a Honda defect. Please work to support consumers and issue a recall promptly. Honda needs to fix this issue. We also, like many other, burn through oil. It’s amazing how everyone is reporting the same issues in cold starts. (Rattles).

VTC ACTUATOR RATTLES UPON START UP FREQUENTLY

HIT ACCELERATOR INSTEAD OF BREAK, CAR HIT A COLUM IN GARAGE PRETTY HARD BUT AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY

MY 2014 HONDA CRV SEEMS TO SHUDDER AROUND 23 TO 35 MPH AT SLOW ACCELERATION. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A GOOD WHILE NOW. I CHANGED THE FLUID TRANSMISSION FLUID AND STILL NO CHANGES, IT STILL HAS AN HARD SHUDDER.

WE WERE DRIVING AND WE HEARD A LOUD BANG, WE PULLED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD , WHEN WE LOOKED ALL OIL WAS COMING OUT OF ENGINE AND TRANSMITION. BOTH ENGINE AND TRANSMITION ARE BROKEN. NO ROAD HAZARD ACCORDING TO HONDA DEALER/ MECHANIC. ALSO AIR CONDITIONING FAILED LAST YEAR, WITHOUT WARNING. THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. WE WERE DRIVING IN THE HIGHWAY, NO PREVIOUS NOTICE OF ANY PROBLEM. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON.

I CURRENTLY OWN A 2014 HONDA CRV AND THERE IS A SPECIFIC PART THAT WAS REPLACED 3 TIMES CALLED A VTC ACTUATOR AND ITS A FAULTY DESIGN ALL THE 2012 TO 2014 HONDA CRVS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE AND I'M AFRAID IT WILL EVENTUALLY RUIN MY ENGINE, EVERYTIME ON START THERE IS GRINDING SOUND AND WHEN I FIRST GOT THE VEHICLE IN 2015 IN WOULD ONLY DO THE IN THE WINTER THEN IN WARMER WEATHER IT WOULDN'T NOW ITS CONSTANT ON EVERY STARTUP.

ON ENGINE STARTING ESPECIALLY MORNING OR COLD STARTS ENGINE CHAIN SPROCKET CLATTERS FOR A NUMBER OF SECONDS. IN NOVEMBER 2016 OR 2017 WENT TO HONDA DEALER FOR CHECK OUT PERFORMANCE AND ANY PROBLEMS OR RECALLS AT CASTLE HONDA MORON GROVE IL TEL # 847-965-8833. WE QUESTIONED ABOUT THE RATTLING COMING ON WHEN 1ST START OF THE DAY. THEY JUST ANSWERED SOME ENGINES DO THIS WHEN THEY ARE COLD, DON'T WORRY ABOUT THAT! WELL WE DIDN'T WORRY IT SINCE THE HONDA DEALER ANSWERED ITS OK. NOW OVER TIME THE RATTLING IS GETTING LONGER AND LOUDER. I WORK FOR THE STATE AND AT TIMES AM NOT AVAILABLE TO HELP MY WIFE WHEN I AM NOT AT HOME. IAM AFRAID THE RATTLING MAY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO STOP RUNNING TOTALLY AND PLACE HER IN DANGER. MY NAME IS [XXX] I AM 73 YEARS OLD AND A HONDA BUYER SINCE 1965.. I WISH YOU TO CHECK WITH YOUR ENGINEERS ABOUT THE TIMING CHAIN PROBLEMS AND OILCHAIN LUBRICATING PROBLEMS AND TECHNICAL CHANGES INVOLVING AL HONDAS IN THIS PARTICULAR MOTORS. THANK YOU [XXX]. EMAIL IS, [XXX] .PLEASE SUBMIT AN WRITTEN RESPONSE ALSO. TEL # [XXX]. THANKS [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

SUNROOF EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. GLASS EVERYWHERE.

VEHICLE MAKES GRINDING NOISE FOR APPROXIMATELY 10 SECONDS DURING A COLD START. VEHICLE WAS IN PARK.

MY 2014 HONDA CR-V HAS DEVELOPED A SHUDDER AT APPROXIMATELY 2500 RPM, FEELS LIKE IT IS IN THE TRANSMISSION BUT NOT SURE. INTERNET RESEARCH SHOWS SEVERAL PEOPLE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AND A RESOLUTION OF A SOFTWARE UPDATE AND TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGE IS REQUIRED.

WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK WHEN FIRST STARTING VEHICLE AND WHEN CAR IDLING. DANGEROUS BECAUSE NO VISIBILITY IN COLD CONDITIONS. ALSO, NO HEAT ON DRIVER'S SIDE. HONDA RELEASED SERVICE BULLETIN 14-063 SO THEY KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE BUT HAVE DONE NOTHING TO REPAIR. I JUST PAID THE DEALER $618 TO HAVE THE HEATER CORE FLUSHED 3 TIMES BUT THERE IS NO GUARANTEE THAT THE ISSUE WILL NOT RETURN. VERY DANGEROUS IF DRIVING IN COLD, ICY CONDITIONS WITH LOW VISIBILITY AND RELYING ON DEFROSTER TO FUNCTION.

RE: 2014 HONDA CR-V ~ POWER TAILGATE OPENER SWITCH ASSEMBLY, HONDA PART NO. 74810-T0A-A02; HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN16-063 ISSUE: POWER TAILGATE WILL NOT OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: WE PURCHASED A 2014 HONDA CRV USED FROM A LOCAL HONDA DEALER IN 2020. NOT LONG AFTER THE PURCHASE, WE EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS OPENING THE TAILGATE WHICH IS DESIGNED TO OPEN WITH THE KEY FOB. FREQUENTLY, THE BUTTON UNDER THE TAILGATE LIFT DOES NOT ACTIVATE AND THE TAILGATE WILL NOT OPEN. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER IF THE WEATHER IS COLD OR NOT. WE ARE PRESENTLY UNABLE TO CONVENIENTLY ACCESS 32.9 CUBIC FEET OF SPACE BEHIND THE SECOND ROW OF SEATS DUE TO THE FAULTY TAILGATE OPENER. THE SECOND ROW OF SEATS MUST FIRST BE LOWERED BEFORE GROCERIES, PETS, ETC. CAN BE PLACED INTO THAT REAR CARGO AREA. THIS PRESENTS A POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE. IF WE WERE TO BE INVOLVED IN A SERIOUS AUTO ACCIDENT, FIRST RESPONDERS MIGHT NOT BE ABLE TO OPEN THE TAILGATE TO ACCESS THE REAR CARGO AREA IF IT WERE NECESSARY TO EXTRACT OCCUPANTS. WE RESEARCHED THIS TAILGATE OPENER PROBLEM ONLINE AND LEARNED THAT MANY HONDA CRV OWNERS HAVE POSTED ONLINE COMMENTS REFLECTING THEY HAVE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH THIS PROBLEM. SOME CLAIMED THEY HAD THE SWITCH REPLACED EITHER UNDER WARRANTY OR NOT, AND STILL EXPERIENCED THE SAME PROBLEM. WE WERE AMAZED AT THE NUMBER OF POSTINGS CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. THIS ISSUE IS BIGGER THAN OUR 2014 HONDA CRV. IT IS APPARENT THAT THE OEM EQUIPMENT SWITCH ASSEMBLY INSTALLED BY HONDA IS FAULTY. WE FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD OFFER A VOLUNTARY RECALL TO ALL HONDA CRV OWNERS WHO HAVE BEEN IMPACTED BY THIS FAULTY SWITCH ASSEMBLY. WE PLAN TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE WITH OUR CONGRESSIONAL REPRESENTATIVE AND OTHER FEDERAL AGENCIES TO ENSURE THAT HAPPENS. WE APPRECIATE THE OPPORTUNITY TO FILE THIS COMPLAINT ONLINE WITH THE NHTSA AND LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE.

THE HEAT DOESN'T WORK ON THE DRIVERS SIDE, JUST BLOWS COLD AIR WHILE THE PASSENGER SIDE IS WORKING PERFECTLY!

VTC ACTUATOR IS NEEDING CONSTANT REPLACING ASAP OR IT WILL STRETCH THE TIMING CHAIN WHICH WILL CAUSE SEVERE ENGINE DAMAGE. I AM ON MY 2ND REPLACEMENT OF THE VTC ACTUATOR IN 2 WEEKS. NO MAJOR DAMAGE HAS OCCURRED AS YET BUT I AM TRYING TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING. THE HONDA FIX IS NOT A FIX

WINDSHIELD WASHER CAME APART AND FAILED TO WORK. WASHER MOTOR WILL NOT RUN.ALLOWING WIPER BLADE S TO DAMAGE TO WIND SHIELD AND BACK WINDOW. BOTH MOVING AND STATIONARY..NO PHOTO

AT THE SPEED OF 25 - 30 MILES PER HOUR, THE ENTIRE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHAKE AND SHIMMY. I AM THE SECOND OWNER OF THE VEHICLE. THE SHAKING WAS SO BAD LAST WEEK I WAS REALLY SCARED! I LOOKED UP THE DESCRIPTION ON GOOGLE AND WOW!Z THERE ARE SOOOOO MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEMS! THEY SAID IT WAS A PROGRAM ISSUE FOR THE TRANSMISSION IN THIS VEHICLE! HOWEVER, WHEN PEOPLE TAKE THE VEHICLE IN FOR THE PROGRAM UPGRADE; AND GET THE TRANSMISSION FLUID DRAINED AND REPLACED, THE PROBLEM QUICKLY RETURNS!!!!!!!! SO.....HOW DO I GET THIS VEHICLE FIXED! I AM FRIGHTENED TO DRIVE IT!!!!!! I BOUGHT THE CAR THROUGH HENDRICK TOYOTA ON RIVERS AVE IN NORTH CHARLESTON, SC. THEY TOOK THE HONDA CRV VEHICLE IN AS A TRADE FOR A TOYOTA. SO, WHAT DO I DO WITH THIS DUD!!! IT IS A BAD SEED AS FOR A CAR. WHO IS GOING TO MAKE GOOD ON THE BAD PART CALLED A TRANSMISSION? IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR SEVERAL MONTHS BEGINNING SOON AFTER I MADE THE PURCHASE!

THE REAR DOOR HATCH LATCH STICKS WHEN THE TEMPERATURE FALLS BELOW 40 DEGREES SO THE REAR DOOR HATCH WILL NOT OPEN. THERE IS NO KEY, FOB CONTROL, OR LEVER INSIDE THE VEHICLE TO TRY AND GET THE REAR DOOR HATCH OPEN. APPARENTLY THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OTHER HONDA CRV OWNERS REGARDING THIS ISSUE.

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

TIMING CHAIN RATTLE UPON COLD START 67,000 MILES, THIS SEEM TO BE A COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THESE VEHICLES AND YOU NOR HONDA IS DOING ANYTHING ABOUT IT!

A FEW MONTHS AFTER BUYING THIS USED VEHICLE IN 2018, MY FIRST HONDA, I STARTED HAVING BATTERY ISSUES. I WOULD DRIVE THE CAR TO WORK, AND WHEN LEAVING, 9ISH HOURS LATER, THE CAR WOULDN'T START. I HAD TO CALL FOR A JUMP START AT LEAST 6 TIMES IN ONE MONTH. I THOUGHT BECAUSE IT WAS A SUCH A COLD WINTER, THIS MAY BE AFFECTING THE VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, SO I BOUGHT A PORTABLE JUMP STARTER, WHICH I HAD TO USE A FEW OTHER TIMES. WINTER PASSED AND I JUST WHEN I THOUGHT THE PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED, I BEGAN TO HAVE THE ISSUE WHEN I'D DRIVE THE VEHICLE FOR SHORT DISTANCES TOO, EVEN IN SPRING/SUMMERTIME. I NOW ALWAYS HAVE TO CARRY MY PORTABLE JUMP STARTER BECAUSE I NEVER KNOW IF THE CAR IS GOING TO START ON IT'S OWN. SOMETIMES, I CAN GO WEEKS WITHOUT HAVING TO JUMPSTART IT, OTHER TIMES I HAVE TO JUMPSTART IT EVERY MORNING. IT'S SUCH AN INCONVENIENCE AND SHOULDN'T BE NECESSARY. I'VE HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES, AND EACH TIME TESTS GOOD, MY MECHANIC HAS INSPECTED THE VEHICLE AND FOUND NO OTHER ISSUE WITH THE ALTERNATOR, BATTERY, OR ANY OTHER VEHICLE PART. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS HAPPENS A LOT WITH MANY OTHER HONDAS, NOT JUST CR-V, BUT THE COMPANY HAS REFUSED TO ORDER A RECALL OR ADMIT THAT IT'S EVEN A PROBLEM. THIS IS WRONG. HOMDA NEEDS TO DIG DEEP AND FIND THEIR ISSUE. SO MANY DRIVERS AROUND THE COUNTRY CANNOT BE MAKING THE SAME MISTAKE AND THIS IS NOT A COINCIDENCE. IT NEEDS TO BE A RECALL, AND HONDA NEEDS TO FIX IT.

HIGH PITCH NOISE WHILE DRIVING. DRIVE SHAFT HAD TO BE REPLACED.

DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON THE FREEWAY DURING A BAD STORM THE DEFROSTER WAS BLOWING COLD AIR ON THE WINDSHIELD AND IT COMPLETELY ICED OVER. I COULD NOT SEE. NOT TO MENTION-- I WAS FREEZING COLD. THE PASSENGER SIDE WAS BLOWING HEAT, HOWEVER ALL VENTS ON THE DRIVER SIDE WERE BLOWING COLD AIR. I TOOK MY CAR TO A HONDA DEALER. WITHOUT EVEN LOOKING AT IT, THEY SEEMED TO KNOW EXACTLY WHAT WAS WRONG AND TOLD ME IT WAS $330 TO REPAIR. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO CHARGED ME $172 TO FLUSH OUT THE HEATER CORE. THE MECHANIC ALSO TOLD ME IT WOULD PROBABLY HAPPEN AGAIN.

LOUD GRINDING NOISE AT STARTUP. APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE IN THIS YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL THAT CAN CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING.

ENGINE MAKES A RATTLING NOISE WHEN ACCELERATING. EVERY SINGLE TIME THE ACCELERATOR IS BEING PUSHED, I HEAR A RATTLE. I AM JUST COMING BACK FROM THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHO TOLD ME THAT THIS COULD BE SOMETHING RELATED TO ENGINE AND IS GOING TO COST 2000 OR MORE AND JUST DID A OIL TREATMENT TO THE ENGINE JUST TO SEE IF THAT WOULD HELP BEFORE DOING AN OPEN HEART SURGERY(MESSING WITH ENGINE). I HOPE HONDA COMES BACK AND FIXES THIS PROBLEM AS IT IS SO COMMON WITH SO MANY OF THEIR 2014 HONDA CRVS.

PURCHASED VEHICLE FROM MY MOTHER-IN-LAW. SHE HAD NOTICED THE RATTLING SOUND BUT HER MECHANIC SAID HIS DID THE SAME THING AND NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT. WE IMMEDIATELY NOTICED THAT VEHICLE GRINDS ON COLD STARTUP. IS STARTING TO RATTLE A LITTLE ON ACCELERATION. CALLED MY HONDA DEALER, TOLD ME IT WOULD BE $1000 TO REPLACE THE VTC ACTUATOR. HE ALSO SAID THAT IT WOULD EVENTUALLY HAPPEN AGAIN, AND THAT IT DOESN'T HARM THE ENGINE SO WE SHOULDN'T WORRY ABOUT IT. RESEARCHING ONLINE UNCOVERED A SERVICE BULLETIN (09-010) FOR CRV'S UP THROUGH 2013, BUT NOT COVERING 2014. HONDA IS NOT SOLVING THEIR ENGINEERING PROBLEM AND ARE MAKING THE CONSUMER PAY FOR IT.

ENGINE LOST POWER AND SEIZED WHILE TRAVELING ON RURAL ROUTE. LOCAL MECHANIC SAID GASOLINE HAD LEAKED INTO ENGINE AND HAD IT TOWED TO URSE HONDA IN BRIDGEPORT, WV. URSE ESTIMATED $9,000 IN REPAIRS

PAINT IS PEELING ON THE REAR SPOILER

I HAVE AN ISSUE WITH MY CRV THAT MY AUTO IS SHAKING WHILE I'M DRIVING UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. I VISITED 2 DIFFERENT LOCATIONS OF HONDA DEALERSHIP. THEY BOTH ASKED ME TO HAVE DIAGNOSIS.ALTHOUGH I KNOW WHAT IS WRONG. SO, I GOT DIAGNOSIS FROM HONDA IN FALLS CHURCH, VA. THEY VERIFIED MY CONCERN THAT TECHNICIAN RECOMMENDS TO PERFORM TRANSMISSION FLUID FLUSH AND TRANSMISSION SOFTWARE UPDATE. MY CONCERN IS MY AUTO MILEAGE IS NOW OVER 82K SO I'M NOT AVAILABLE TO HAVE THE SERVICE UNDER WARRANTY. I HEARD THAT MANY CRV OWNERS HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I HOPE I COULD GET THE SERVICE UNDER WARRANTY

TIMING CHAIN AND TENSIONER IS DEFECTIVE MAKING NOISE ON STARTING EVERY MORNING MAILLY ON COLD STARTS,BUT DOES IT WHEN HOT ALSO

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEATER WAS ACTIVATED AND FAILED TO PRODUCE ADEQUATE HEAT THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE WAS COLD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BROWN'S HONDA CITY USED CARS (7154 RITCHIE HWY SUITE 100, GLEN BURNIE, MD 410) 760-6561) WHERE THE MECHANIC STATED THAT THE HEATER WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 72,000.

TRUNK DOOR WILL NOT OPEN IN COLD TEMPS. I LIVE IN NEW ENGLAND. THE GREASE IN THE LOCKING MECHANISM FREEZES. ONCE IT WARMS UP OUTSIDE I NO LONGER HAVE THE ISSUE.

VEHICLE GRINDS ON COLD STARTUP, EVERY SINGLE TIME. VEHICLE ALSO RATTLES ON ACCELERATION. TOOK IT TO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD TIMING CHAIN AND VTC ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED TO THE TIME OF WELL OVER $2000. AFTER RESEARCH, I HAVE SEEN THAT THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH ALL 2014 HONDA CRVS BUT HONDA HAS REFUSED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM LEADS TO ENGINE FAILURE AND HONDA IS CONTINUING TO BUILD THESE VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE PARTS. THE TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN OUT DOES NOT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. I AM ASKING THAT HONDA ESTABLISH A RECALL FOR THE VTC ACTUATOR AND TIMING CHAIN TO PREVENT RESULTING ENGINE DAMAGE FROM THESE DEFECTIVE PARTS.

CLEAR COATING OVER PAINT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR IS PEELING OFF EXTENSIVELY.

THE SUNROOF HAS RUST ALONG THE PANELING AREA THAT I CAN SEE. NOT SURE WHEN THE RUST DEVELOPED, I'M SURE WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

I PURCHASED A 2014 HONDA CRV WITH 13,000 MILES ON IN, A YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED IT AT 31,000 MILES THE VTC ACTUATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED AS IT WOULD MAKE A GRINDING NOISE ON START-UP. IT HAS BEEN 2 YEARS AND I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE NOISE AND ONLY HAVE 65K MILES ON IT. THIS APPEARS TO BE AN ONGOING ISSUE IN HONDA FORUMS AND THE PART IS CLEARLY DEFECTIVE OR THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH IT AS THERE IS A SAFETY BULLETIN ISSUED, BUT NO RECALL YET.

VEHICLE EXPERIENCES SHUDDER UNDER LIGHT TO NORMAL ACCELERATION AT OR AROUND 2000 RPM. THERE ARE SERVICE BULLETINS OUT FROM HONDA WITH CORRECTIVE ACTIONS TO BE TAKEN. HONDA WANTS TO CHARGE TO PERFORM THE FIX WITH NO GUARANTEE IT WILL SOLVE THEW KNOWN PROBLEM.

AFTER MY CAR HAS SAT FOR 5-6 HOURS OR LONGER, AT START UP MY ENGINE GRINDS FOR 1-2 SECONDS. READING SIMILAR PROBLEMS ONLINE THEY SAY IT IS A FAULTY VTC ACTUATOR THAT HONDA KNOWS ABOUT BUT REFUSES TO FIX OR RECALL. IS THERE PLANS TO RECALL THIS FAULTY PART BEFORE MY CAR FAILS AND BREAKS DOWN ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD? THIS NOISE HAS HAPPENED EVERY DAY FOR THE LAST YEAR OR SO.

MY VEHICLE IS EXPERIENCING THE KNOWN ISSUE OF VTC RATTLE AT STARTUP.

ON 5/27/2020 AT 11:20 PM MY 2014 HONDA CRV WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOME AND SUDDENLY COMBUSTED.FIRST SMOKE APPEARED ON THE DRIVER SIDE THEN FLAMES. IT WAS LAST DRIVEN AROUND 9:45PM THAT EVENING WITHOUT ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAS NO HISTORY OF PHYSICAL OR MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION. THE INCIDENT SET OFF MY RING BELL CAMERA SINCE IT MOTION SENSITIVE (WILL PROVIDE FOOTAGE IF REQUESTED).

LOW HEAT FROM DRIVERS SIDE WHICH CAUSES THE WINDSHIELD NOT TO DEFROST IN THE WINTER. ALSO COLD INSIDE CAR. HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS AND PUT OUT SERVICE BULLETIN #14-063. SAYS HEATER CORE PARTLY CLOGS REDUCING HEAT TO DRIVERS SIDE. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS WHEN CAR IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

DRIVING THE INTERSTATE I-35W ON SATURDAY JUNE 13, 2020 IN MINNEAPOLIS, MN WE HEARD A LOUD BANG, SOUNDED LIKE A ROCK HIT THE CAR. BEING CLOSE TO HOME WE PULLED INTO THE DRIVEWAY BUT DID NOT SEE ANY VISIBLE DAMAGE ON THE SIDES OF THE CAR NOR UNDERNEATH. TWO DAYS LATER OPENING THE CEILING DOOR TO THE SUNROOF TO FIND OUT THAT THE GLASS HAD A BIG HOLE IN IT. WE WERE NOT NEAR AN OVER PASS. WE WERE IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE BUT NO WHERE CLOSE TO ANY CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES. NOT SURE THAT CONSTRUCTION WAS OCCURRING AT THE TIME. ALL WE CAN THINK OF IS EITHER A ROCK FELL FROM THE SKY OR THE CLASS IMPLODED UNDER THE HEAT OF THAT DAY. *TR

RATTLING SOUND AT START UP AND OIL CONSUMPTION,. 2 QUARTS BETWEEN OIL CHANGES AND HAVE CHECKED THE LEVEL WEEKLY. *TR

VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION USUALLY OCCURS WHEN ENGINE/TRANSMISSION IS COLD. USUALLY OCCURS AROUND 25 MPH DURING LIGHT ACCELERATION. *TR *BF *AS

ON 2 SEPARATE OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED ON AN INCLINE AND STARTED ROLLING BACKWARDS AFTER BEING PARKED (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION) FOR ABOUT 10 TO 15 MINUTES. ONCE IT HIT THE CAR BEHIND IT, AND ON THE OTHER I WAS ABLE TO GET BACK IN THE CAR AND HIT THE BRAKE (WHICH RESPONDED) BEFORE IT ROLLED OUT INTO THE STREET. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPRODUCE THE PROGRAM, AND I WAS TOLD THEY ARE GOING TO DO NOTHING UNLESS IT MALFUNCTIONS IN FRONT OF THEM, OR I GET AN ENGINE ERROR CODE. *TR

VEHICLE BEGAN MAKING A RATTLING NOISE UPON COLD STARTS. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE CAR NEEDED A VTC ACTUATOR FOR A COST IN EXCESS OF $1,000. A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH DESCRIBED WIDE SPREAD ISSUES WITH THIS PART AND THAT IT IS A RECURRING ISSUE AND COULD DAMAGE TIMING CHAIN FOR COSTS IN EXCESS OF $5K. HONDA SERV BULLETIN 16-012 DESCRIBES ISSUES BUT HONDA DOES NOT COVER UNDER ENGINE WARRANTY. VERY COSTLY DEFECT FOR A MAKE OF CAR THAT HAS HAD A GOOD REPUTATION.

AT COLD START UP, THE ENGINE RATTLES LOUDLY FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. POSSIBLE FIX, VARIABLE VALVE TIMING CONTROL, VTC, ACTUATOR REPLACEMENT. STARTED AT 36,000 MILES. KNOWN ISSUE FOR YEARS BY HONDA. SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT HAS BEEN KNOWN BY THEM AND IS EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE. HAVE TRIED WORKING WITH THEM, AND THEY ARE NOT WILLING TO COVER ANY COST.

I LIVE IN MN, AND ONLY COLD AIR BLOWERS OUT OF THE HEATER VENT ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE BY HONDA (TSB 14-063), IT IS A CLOGGED HEATER CORE. I HAVE HAD IT FIXED 2 TIMES ($120/PER TIME) AND IT KEEPS HAPPENING. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WHEN IT IS 20 BELOW AND THERE IS NO HEAT IN MY CRV.

I HAD NOT USED THE CAR ALL DAY, BUT AROUND 5:45 PM (03/12/20) I DROVE APPROXIMATELY 2 MILES TO AN APPOINTMENT. AS I PULLED INTO THE PARKING AREA IN FRONT OF THE SHOP, I SAW WHAT I THOUGHT WAS STEAM COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I TURNED THE ENGINE OFF AND TRIED TO RELEASE THE HOOD LATCH, WHILE I WAS DOING THAT A MAN BANGED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW AND TOLD ME TO QUICKLY GET OUT OF THE CAR. I DID SO AND AS I WAS WALKING TOWARDS THE SHOP THE CAR BURST INTO FLAMES. SEE ATTACHED PICTURES. SOMEONE FROM THE STORE CALL 911, A POLICEMAN ARRIVED AND TACKLED THE FIRE WITH HIS FIRE EXTINGUISHER BUT IT FAILED TO CONTROL THE FIRE. SHORTLY AFTERWARDS 3 FIRE ENGINES WERE ON THE SCENE. THEY ASKED PEOPLE TO MOVE ADJACENT CARS AND EVACUATED THE STORES AROUND THE FIRE. THEY EVENTUALLY PUT OUT THE FIRE.

I HAVE HONDA CR-V 2014 WITH ONLY 41K, THE SAME PROBLEM IS WITH THE SHAKE, JUDDER, VIBRATION BETWEEN 25-30 MPG.

I WOULD LIKE TO FILE A COMPLAINT FOR HONDA'S VTC ACTUATOR. MY HONDA CRV 2014 WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW SEPTEMBER 2014. AT 50,000 MILES THE VEHICLE STARTED TO MAKE A RATTLING/GRINDING NOISE WHEN STARTED IN THE COLD. I WAS ASSURED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS WAS NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. I HAVE NOW FOUND OUT THAT THERE IS A KNOWN DEFECT FROM THE VTC ACTUATOR THAT ALL HONDA CRV'S FROM THIS YEAR ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUE BECAUSE OF THE DEFECT FROM HONDA. AS A CONSUMER WHO PURCHASED A NEW VEHICLE, HONDA SHOULD HAVE REPLACED/FIXED THIS ISSUE ON ANY VEHICLE THAT IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM SINCE IT IS A DEFECT. I STILL HAVE YET TO FIX IT AND WOULD HOPE THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE MADE SINCE THEY ARE AWARE OF THE FAULTY PART THAT HAS BEEN INSTALLED IN BRAND NEW VEHICLES.

ON COLD START-UPS THERE IS A LOUD RATTLE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. MY CR-V ONLY HAS 54,000 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS. I AM TOLD IT COULD BE THE VTC ACTUATOR AND CAN ONLY HOPE THAT MY EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL COVER IT. NOT THE QUALITY I EXPECT FROM HONDA AT ALL. RESEARCHING THIS CAN LEAD TO OIL CONSUMPTION AND A STRETCHED TIMING CHAIN AND PREMATURE ENGINE FAILURE.

2014 HONDA CRV EX-L WITH ONLY 65K CAUGHT ON FIRE - BURNED ENTIRE VEHICLE. NO MAJOR SERVICE ITEMS. FILED COMPLAINT WITH HONDA NORTH AMERICA. VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO TOWN(25MI) - UPON THE RETURN TO RESIDENCE FIRE BROKE OUT UNDER ENGINE IN DRIVEWAY. CAR SERVICED EVERY 5K MILES. NO OTHER ISSUES PRIOR TO FIRE WITH VEHICLE.

AT ABOUT 40K MILES I STARTED GETTING A GRINDING/RATTLING NOISE ON SOME COLD STARTS. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BUT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE IT. A YEAR LATER I RESEARCH THE ISSUE MYSELF AND FIND OUT ITS THE EXTREMELY COMMON VTC ACTUATOR NOISE. I CONTACT HONDA OF AMERICA WHO TELLS ME TO HAVE THE DEALER TAKE A LOOK AT IT. AGAIN THEY CANT REPLICATE IT. IM NOW AT 65K MILES AND OUT OF MY WARRANTY RANGE, SOUND IS ON EVERY START AFTER CAR HAS BEEN OFF FOR AT LEAST HALF HOUR. ITS LOUD ENOUGH TO SCARE PEDESTRIANS WALKING PAST WHEN I START IT IN PUBLIC PLACES (VERY EMBARRASSING). HONDA BULLETIN SAYS "ALL" 2014 HAVE A "DEFECTIVE" VTC ACTUATOR POSTED IN A 2016 BULLETIN. WHY DID THEY NOT REPLACE MINE WHEN I MADE THE COMPLAINT. SEEN REPORTS OF THIS CAUSING WEAR TO THE TIMING CHAIN AND A FEW THOUSAND DOLLARS WORTH OF REPAIRS. NEEDS TO BE A RECALL.

I HAVE A CUSTOMER THAT HAS A 2014 HONDA CRV (VIN PROVIDED) AND 2 YEARS AGO WE REPLACED THE REAR HATCH OUTSIDE HANDLE. IT WOULD NOT OPEN IN COLD WEATHER. IT FAILED AGAIN AND WE REPLACED IT AGAIN (NO CHARGE TO THE CUSTOMER AS IT WAS THE SAME PROBLEM AS BEFORE). HONDA ONLY WARRANTIES THEIR PARTS FOR 12 MONTHS. THIS IS A KNOW PROBLEM WHICH IS FIXED WITH A NEW OUTSIDE HANDLE. IT SEEMS TO ME THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THERE IN NO WAY TO GET INTO THE REAR CARGO AREA FROM THE OUTSIDE WITHOUT THIS OUTSIDE HANDLE WORKING. HONDA HAS REFUSED ANY TO HELP IN ANY WAY.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED (60MPH) ON A SUNNY BUT NOT HOT DAY (45 DEG.) WE HEARD A LOUD BANG LIKE SOMETHING HIT THE ROOF OF THE CAR. THERE WAS NO OTHER TRAFFIC IN THE AREA AND WE DID NOT PASS UNDER ANY OVERPASS. UPON INSPECTION OF THE CAR AFTER STOPPING, WE SAW THE SUNROOF HAD A LARGE HOLE (6-8 INCHES) AND APPEARED TO HAVE EXPLODED FROM THE INSIDE, SINCE THE BROKEN AREA WAS BULGING UP. WE SUBMITTED A CLAIM WITH OUR INSURANCE CARRIER, AND WAS TOLD WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY THE $100 DEDUCTIBLE. WE EXPECT TO GET THE DAMAGED SUNROOF REPLACED NEXT WEEK WHEN THE GLASS IS AVAILABLE. THE GLASS STORE PUT A SHEET OF CLING PLASTIC OVER THE HOLE FOR TEMPORARY CLOSURE.

MY 204 HONDA CRV HAS A CONTINUING PROBLEM WITH THE VTC ACTUATOR. I'VE HAD 2 DEFECTIVE ONES, WHICH DAMAGED MY TIMING CHAIN. DEALER SAYS THEY ARE NOT LIABLE FOR THE DAMAGE DONE FOR THE DEFECTIVE PART, AND I HAVE TO PAY $1600 FOR A NEW TIMING CHAIN AT 70K MILES. HONDA ISSUED A TECHNICIAN BULLETIN STATING THE VTC IS DEFECTIVE, BUT OFFERED NO FIXES TO THE PROBLEM OTHER THAN THROWING ANOTHER DEFECTIVE PRODUCT IN THE VEHICLE. WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE, THE VTC ACTUATOR MAKES A LOUD GRINDING NOISE, WHICH IS THE SOUND OF THE TIMING CHAIN BEING STRETCHED. MY TIMING CHAIN IS NOW RUINED AND NEEDS A NEW ONE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I'VE OWNED THE CAR. THE NOISE NOW OCCURS ALMOST EVERY MORNING.

2014 CRV HAD 'RATTLE' NOISE DURING COLD START ABOUT A YEAR AGO, TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG. NOW AT 59974 MILES AND 3 MONTHS PASSED 5 YEAR WARRANTY, THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS GOING OFF AND TIMING CHAIN HAS TO BE REPLACED. HAD TO SPENT $2000 TO FIX IT.

I AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE HEATER ON THE PASSENGER SIDE AS RELATES TO HONDA TSB 14-0063. HAVING HARD TIME TO DEFROST MY WINDSHIELD WHICH CREATE SAFETY HAZARD WITH VISIBILITY AND KEEPING THE CAR WARM. FEELING THE HONDA SHOULD ISSUE THE RECALL BULLETIN ON THIS ISSUE.

I HAVE SEARCHED ONLINE AND SEE THAT MANY 2014 HONDA CRV'S HAVE THE HEATING ISSUE DESCRIBED IN TSB 14-063 (NHTSA ID: 10120775 AND 10118028). MY 2014 CRV SUFFERS FROM THE SAME ISSUE. TO BE PRECISE, THE VENT ALL THE WAY TO THE LEFT OF THE CAR (DRIVER'S SIDE) DOES NOT BLOW HOT AIR. ALL THREE VENTS TO THE RIGHT SEEM TO BLOW FINE.

I JUST PURCHASED A USED 2014 HONDA CR-V AND AFTER DRIVING AWAY FROM THE DEALER, THE DRIVER'S SIDE HEAT AND DEFROST SYSTEM WOULD ONLY BLOW COLD AIR. THE PASSENGER SIDE HEAT AND DEFROST WORKS FINE. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE HAS REACHED OPERATING TEMPERATURE, AND OCCURS WHETHER MOVING OR STATIONARY. IT IS DANGEROUS TO HAVE COMPROMISED DEFROST ABILITY. THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT HAS BEEN KNOWN TO HONDA SINCE 2014 (SEE SERVICE BULLETIN ATTACHED BELOW).

KNOWN & VERY DOCUMENTED ISSUE WITH COLD START VTC ACTUATOR. ENGINE NOISE AT EVERY COLD START. IF ALL THESE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ARE REVIEWED.... WHY HASN'T THIS LEAD TO AN INVESTIGATION / RECALL ?

MY VEHICLE IS SUFFERING FROM AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM WITHIN THE 4TH GENERATION CRV - THE VTC ACTUATOR IS MAKING A GRINDING NOISE DURING COLD STARTUPS. THERE IS A ACTIVE BULLETIN REGARDING THE ISSUE, TSB 16-012 VER. 2. THE ISSUE IS FURTHER COMPOUNDED BY THE FACT THAT IT DOES NOT HAPPEN LITERALLY EVERY SINGLE TIME I TURN THE CAR ON. IT ONLY HAPPENS SOMETIMES. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME TO LEAVE IT WITH THEM OVERNIGHT. THEN IN THE MORNING THEY WILL TEST IT AND TRY TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. IF THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT, THEN THEY WON'T FIX IT. THIS IS FRUSTRATING.

LIGHTS THAT INDICATE THAT THE BAGS ARE ALWAYS OFF. APPARENTLY AIRBAGS DON'T WORK

MY CAR "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON AND WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. I WAS TOLD THE CAR NEED AN UPDATED PGMFI. I WAS TOLD A LOT OF CRV'S ARE INCURRING THE SAME ERROR INDICATORS. BUT BECAUSE MY CAR IS OUT OF WARRANTY I ENDED UP PAYING FOR THE PGMFI UPDATE. I DO NOT AGREE, BUT PAID THE BILL. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL.

AFTER RECENTLY PURCHASING A USED 2014 HONDA CR-V, NOTICED A 2 SECOND RATTLE AT COLD START-UP. DOING RESEARCH, THIS ISSUE MIRRORS A VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEM KNOWN BY AMERICAN HONDA (TSB 16-012).

WHILE PARKING ON THE SECOND LEVEL OF A PARKING GARAGE, THE CAR SUDDENLY LUNGED FORWARD AND JUMPED THE STOP AND CRASHED INTO THE WALL OF THE GARAGE. MY FOOT WAS ON THE BREAK BUT WHEN I LIFTED IT OFF, THE ENGINE REVVED UP WITHOUT MY FOOT ON THE GAS. THIS HAS DONE THIS BEFORE AND I HAVE REPORTED IT TO HONDA BUT THEY DID NOTHING TO CORRECT IT.

MY 2014 HONDA CRV JUST CROSSED 87,000 MILES, STARTED WITH ENGINE RATTLING NOISE DURING COLD START, AND NOW GOT THE CHECK ENGINE, STEERING AND TRACTION LIGHTS TURNED ON ON THE DASHBOARD. I TOOK IT MECHANIC AND AFTER PERFORMING DIAGNOSIS THEY TOLD ME THAT THE VTC ACTUATOR AND TIMING CHAIN NEEDS REPLACEMENTS. I CAME TO KNOW THAT IT WAS DUE TO MANUFACTURING DEFECT ON THE FAULTY VTC ACTUATOR AS MENTIONED IN TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 16-012. THIS VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEM CONTRIBUTE TO HIGH OIL CONSUMPTION AS MENTIONED IN THIS LINK: HTTPS://WWW.JULIEANNACLINE.COM/ENGINE- RATTLES-ON-COLD-STARTUP-TSB-09-010/ IN THE RECENT OIL SERVICE I WAS INFORMED THAT WAS LOW ENGINE OIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN THE PARK POSITION, THE GEAR WAS PLACED INTO DRIVE AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO REV UP APPROXIMATELY FOUR TIMES. THE CONTACT PLACED THE VEHICLE BACK INTO THE PARK POSITION AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANTRIM WAY HONDA (LOCATED AT 200 S ANTRIM WAY, GREENCASTLE, PA 17225, 877-870-8241), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,948. *TR

THE DEFROSTER BLOWS ONLY COLD AIR ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE. IT IS STILL WARM/HOT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. I LIVE IN THE NORTHEAST AND WHEN YOU CAN'T SEE OUT THE WINDSHIELD TO DRIVE IT BECOMES A SERIOUS PROBLEM. DURING THE WINTER THE CAR IS BASICALLY UNDRIVEABLE UNLESS YOU LET THE ENTIRE INTERIOR WARM UP FOR 20-30 MINUTES, NOT EXACTLY THE FUEL FUEL EFFICIENCY I WAS LOOKING FOR IN A HONDA VEHICLE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LIFTGATE LATCH MECHANISM MALFUNCTIONED AND THE LIFTGATE DOOR COULD NOT BE OPENED. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE WAS VERY COLD. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND BEND HONDA (2225 NE HWY 20, BEND, OR) WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 38,000.

MY HONDA CR-V SUDDENLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT MY PEDAL INPUT WHILE I WAS TURNING AT ABOUT 5 MPH IN THE PARKING LOT OF AN OUTDOOR SHOPPING PLAZA AND LOOKING FOR A PARKING SPACE. MY VEHICLE ACCELERATED UP TO 18 MPH BEFORE COLLIDING WITH TWO PARKED CARS, LEADING TO MODERATE FRONT-END DAMAGE OF MY VEHICLE. DASHCAM VIDEO AVAILABLE AT HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/T1SXHEZE74S

BACK TRUNK DOESN'T OPEN WHEN IT'S COLD OUTSIDE.

VEHICLE MADE GRINDING NOISE UPON START-UP OVER SEVERAL MONTHS. HONDA CLAIMED IT IS NOT DAMAGING THE ENGINE AND THERE IS NO FIX. ENGINE CONTINUED TO GRIND AND MY CAR BEGAN HAVING OIL PROBLEMS. HONDA STILL SAID THERE WAS NO ISSUE AND THEY WERE NOT RELATED. CAR CONTINUED GRINDING UNTIL THIS WEEK WHEN ALL LIGHTS ON THE DASHBOARD LIT UP. I TOOK MY HONDA AND WAS TOLD THE TIMING CHAIN IS STRETCHED AND IT NEEDS ANOTHER VTC ACTUATOR REPLACEMENT (THIS WAS FIXED UNDER WARRANTY THREE YEARS AGO). THE CAR COULD HAVE STALLED WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT HONDA IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE OR RECALL IN HONDA CR-V'S. THEY CHARGED ME $1800 TO FIX AN ISSUE KNOWN TO THEM. THIS COULD HAVE RESULTED IN BODILY INJURY TO MYSELF OR OTHERS IF THE CAR HAD STALLED WHILE DRIVING. HONDA SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR FAULTY ENGINES. THERE ARE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE.

WHEN TURNING ON HEAT WARM AIR ONLY BLOWS OUT OF VENTS ON PASSENGER SIDE OF VEHICLE.TOOK VEHICLE TO HONDA STORE TOLD US IT WAS THE HEATER CORE AND THAT IT NEEDED FLUSHING. PRICE TO TO JOB WAS $375 AND WOULD TAKE 3 AND ONE HALF HOURS. DISCOVERED OTHER CUSTOMERS ARE EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM. PLEASE ENCOURAGE HONDA TO FIX PROBLEM MORE COST EFFECTIVE. THANKS

WHILE IT IS STATIONARY, THE TAILGATE CANNOT BE OPEN EXTERNALLY WHEN IN COLD TEMPERATURE LIKE 35 DEGREES. THERE IS NO WAY TO OPEN IT INSIDE AND THUS NO WAY TO ESCAPE THROUGH THE TAILGATE FROM INSIDE. NOT SAFE. HERE ARE LINKS FOR COMPLAINTS. IT HAPPENS TO 2012 TO 2016 AND EVEN 2019 ON HRV MODELS. AFTER READING COMPLAINTS, THE ONLY SOLUTION IS A REPLACEMENT OF THE SWITCH. THEY SAID IT STOPPED WORKING AGAIN EVEN AFTER REPLACING IT. I DON'T WANT TO SPEND MONEY FOR DIAGNOSITICS AND REPAIRS UNTIL IT WORKS FOR GOOD. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN GETTING WORSE FOR THE LAST FIVE YEARS. HTTPS://WWW.CARGURUS.COM/CARS/DISCUSSION-T45488_DS632303 HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/HONDA/CR-V/2014/BODY_PAINT/TAILGATE_NOT_WORKING_PROPERLY.SHTML HTTP://WWW.CITY-DATA.COM/FORUM/HONDA-ACURA/2282486-2013-HONDA-CR-V-TAILGATE-WONT.HTML

BOUGHT THE CAR FROM HONDA DEALERSHIP IN AUGUST OF 2018. SECOND I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT VEHICLE STARTED TO HAVE A VIBRATION FROM THE FRONT END OF THE CAR. I BROUGHT IT BACK 4 DAYS LATER BECAUSE OF THE VIBRATION AND BURNING SMELL WHEN I PRESSED ON THE BRAKES. I HAD TO GET A NEW AXEL REPLACED ON THE CAR. AFTER I HAD TO RETURN CAR AGAIN A WEEK LATER FOR THE EXACT SAME VIBRATIONS. YET SINCE THEN THE CAR STILL SHAKES, AFTER BRINGING IT TO NUMEROUS MECHANICS THE CAR STILL SHAKES. I JUST BROUGHT IT BACK AGAIN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE AGAIN WHY EXACTLY IT IS STILL SHAKING. I HAD TO GET A NEW DIFFERENTIA FOR THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, AND THAT DIDN'T WORK. I RETURNED IT AGAIN A WEEK LATER FOR FLUID AND TRANSMISSION FLUID TO SEE IF THAT WILL WORK AND STILL PERSISTS TO SHAKE.

2014 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO A SOFTWARE ISSUE BULLETIN 15-086 WITH VEHICLE THAT CAUSES A SURGE, VIBRATION OR JUDDER FELT WHILE DRIVING UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. *AS *JS

MY 2014 CRV HAS EXCESSIVE VIBRATION WHEN I AM IN DRIVE BUT IDLING. IT DOES NOT HAPPEN IN PARK OR NEUTRAL. ONLY WHEN IN DRIVE OR REVERSE AND STOPPED. IT IS EXCESSIVE. MY STEALING WHEEL VIBRATES, CUPS...PENS.. IT COMES THROUGH MY SEAT AND IT KIND OF MAKES ME SICK. I HAVE TAKEN THIS TO HONDA SEVERAL TIMES. I HAVE HAD MOTOR MOUNTS AND TRANSMISSION MOUNTS REPLACED. I HAVE HAD A COMPRESSOR REPLACED. NONE OF THIS HAS STOPPED THE EXCESSIVE VIBRATION. THIS ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN RUNNING FOR AT LEAST 15 MINUTES. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS, WITH NO SOLUTION.

VEHICLE WHEN RIDING AT A STEADY RISING SPEED AND IT COMES TO 2 POINT ON THE MILAGE AS 30MPH OR 40MPH THE VEHICLE STARTS TO SHAKE CONTINOUSLY UNTILL GAS PEDAL IS LET GO OR STRONGLY PRESSED TO ACCELERATE. THIS ACTION CONTINUES TO HAPPEN EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS BEING DRIVEN, AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE WHEN IT SHAKES SOME TIMES ARE MORE STRONG THEN OTHER, IT VARIES ON THE POWER OF THE SHAKE.

RATTLE FROM ENGINE EVERY STARTUP. LOUDER AND LONGER WHEN COLD. TIMING CHAIN? THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE CPO PURCHASE. IT'S GETTING LOUDER AND I'M AFRAID IT WILL DESTROY MY ENGINE, BEFORE HONDA ADMITS TO A DEFECTIVE PART AND DOES A RECALL.

DRIVING AT LOW SPEED (20-40MPH) THE CAR WILL FLUTTER/SHIMMY. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA AMERICA AS THEY HAVE TWO SERVICE BULLETINS REGARDING THE ISSUE. THERE ARE MULTIPLE ONLINE FORUMS WITH CR-V OWNERS HAVING THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM WITH LOW AND HIGH MILEAGE. THE DEALERSHIP PERFORMED THE FIRST "FIX" ACCORDING TO THE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN AND IT WAS OK FOR ABOUT 2 WEEKS AND NOW IT'S BACK, WORSE THAN EVER. THE SECOND FIX ACCORDING TO HONDA IS A TORQUE CONVERTER REPLACEMENT, WHICH MAY OR MAY NOT HELP THE PROBLEM.

I EXPERIENCED SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION OF THE ENGINE TWICE OVER A 3 MONTH PERIOD. AFTER DRIVING FOR APPROXIMATE 140 MILLES I PULLED INTO A PARKING AREA. AFTER THE CAR STOPPED THE ENGINE IMMEDIATELY REVED UP TO OVER 3000 RPM. I IMMEDIATELY PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND TURNED OFF THE KEY. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED THE CONDITIONS WERE SIMILAR WITH THE ENGINE REVING UP TO APPROXIMATELY 5000 RPM. IN BOTH CASES THE ENGINE REVED UP AFTER CAR WAS STOPPED AT THE END OF A LONG CONTINUOUS DRIVE. AT THE END OF THESE EVENTS I LOOKED DOWN AND VERIFIED THAT MY FOOT WAS DEFINITELY ON THE BRAKE. AFTER THE FIRST EVENT I HAD THE VEHICLE CHECKED BY A RELIABLE MECHANIC AND NOTHING UNUSUAL WAS FOUND.

AT COLD START-UP, THE ENGINE RATTLES LOUDLY FOR A FEW SECONDS, EVERY TIME NOW. DEFECTIVE VARIABLE VALVE TIMING CONTROL (VTC) ACTUATOR. VTC ACTUATOR IS DEFECTIVE. OVER TIME, THIS CAN CAUSE FRAGMENTED ISSUES, AFFECTING OTHER INTEGRAL AREAS OF VEHICLE OPERATION.

OIL USAGE IS EXTREMELY HIGH WITH NO VISIBLE LEAKS, AND ENGINE IS DRY. I AM AT THE POINT OF MY OIL NEEDING TO BE CHANGED, AND MY OIL WAS NEARLY EMPTY. I HAVE PUT IN 3 QT'S IN THE LAST 3 WEEKS. ALSO, I LIVE IN NYS, AND ON COOLER DAYS TO FREEZING DAYS, THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING RATTLE THAT HAPPENS WHEN I START MY CAR. I HAD A 2010 THAT DID THE SAME THING.

WHEN I START MY 2014 HONDA CRV IN THE MORNING IN IDLE AND UNTIL I HIT OVER 15 MPH IT MAKES A RATTLE NOISE, BUT MORE OF A KNOCKING UNDER THE VALVE COVER AREA. WE HAVE DONE THE OIL CHANGES EVERY TIME THE ON-BOARD OIL LIFE REMINDER TELLS ME. DURING THE WINTER, I TAKE IT TO HONDA DURING THE SUMMER MY HUSBAND AND I CHOOSE TO CHANGE IT. THE NOISE HAS BECOME CONSIDERABLY WORSE SO WE WENT ONLINE TO REVIEW. ALL ASSOCIATIONS WITH THE PROBLEM POINT TO THE VTC ACTUATOR AND TIMING CHANGE. AFTER CALLING TO MAKE AN APPT AT THE DEALER AND EXPLAIN MY PROBLEM I HEAR THE COST TO FIX IT REFERRING TO THE SERVICE BULLETIN 16-102. IT WAS WELL OVER $2000. THE ISSUE BEFORE I PAY THAT TO FIX IT IS THAT ALL OF THE PEOPLE I READ IN THE ONLINE COMMUNITY STATE IT IS A TEMPORARY FIX AND THE PROBLEM COMES RIGHT BACK. SOME HAVE HAD THE VTC CHANGED FOUR TIMES. THAT WOULD COST ME $8000, A BEAUTIFUL CHUNK OF CHANGE TO PUT DOWN ON A NEW CAR. NOT A HONDA. JUST LIKE THE AIRBAG ISSUE WITH MY 2004 HONDA CRV, THEY HAD TO REPLACE THE REPLACEMENT UNTIL THEY GOT IT RIGHT. I URGE YOU TO PLEASE NOTIFY HONDA OF ALL OUR COMPLAINTS (I UPLOADED A COMMUNITY FORUM) I CAN NOT AFFORD TO KEEP CHASING DOWN THIS DEFECTIVE PART. MY 2007 HONDA PRELUDE HAS OVER 300K AND IS A DAILY DRIVER WITH A NIECE. MY 2014 AND 2016 HONDA CRV ARE HAPPY EVERY DRIVER. SNOW BEATS IF YOU MAY. I WANTED A NEWER CAR WITH NEWER FEATURES, BUT WHAT I GOT WAS AN EXPENSIVE DEFECTIVE HONDA. I PAID $15000 TWO YEARS AGO, AND IT IS NOW JUST UNDER 100,000 MILES. THERE USED TO BE A SAYING, YOU COULD DRIVE A HONDA TO THE POINT OF THE BODY FALLING OFF, BUT THE ENGINE WOULD KEEP GOING. NOT ONLY IS MY VTC A SORE SPOT TO FIX. IT IS NOW USING OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES DUE TO A DEFECTIVE VTC. SO I WILL CHANGE IT ONCE AND IF IT CONTINUES. I WILL BE BACK WITH ANOTHER URGE FOR JUSTICE.

BATTERY + OIL INDICATOR LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND BRAKES FAILED WHEN APPROACHING INTERSECTION RESULTING IN COLLISION. CODE READER SCAN SHOWS THERE WAS A LOW VOLTAGE WHICH TRIGGERED ABS CODE. VEHICLE REGULARLY SERVICED AND INSPECTED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP, MOST RECENTLY 2 MONTHS PRIOR TO INCIDENT.

ENGINE MAKES GRINDING NOISE AT START IN COLD OR FROM SITTING. HAVE BEEN TOLD IT'S VTC VALVE BUT HAS NO FIX. CAR IS CPO WITH 32,000 MILES. STILL UNDER WARRANTY.

I'M HAVING THE INFAMOUS VTC ACTUATOR GRINDING ON START-UP THAT HONDA HAS DETAILED IN SERVICE BULLETIN #16-012. I'VE CONTACTED HONDA REPEATEDLY ABOUT THE ISSUE BUT THEY REFUSE TO GIVE ME ANY INFORMATION ABOUT IT.

THE CAR VIBRATED DURING ACCELERATION AT 25 AND 32MPH. THE HONDA OF SAN MARCOS,TX DEALER UPDATED THE SOFTWARE AND THAT FIXED THE PROBLEM. SINCE MANY 2014 HONDA CRVS HAVE THIS PROBLEM, THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. HONDA SHOULD REIMBURSE ME THE $365.15 THAT THEY CHARGED ME TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION VIBRATION.

MY VEHICLE WAS STALLED IN THE EARLY MORNING OF JULY 17, 2019 IN A PARKING LOT AND TOWED TO A HONDA DEALERSHIP NEARBY. THE MECHANIC'S DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE VEHICLE STALL WAS CAUSED BY THE SHORTAGE OF ALL FUSES IN THE PRIMARY FUSE BOX DUE TO LEAKING OIL FROM THE TIMING CHAIN COVER OF THE ENGINE. THE MECHANIC MENTIONED THAT THE OIL LEAK OCCURRED FOR A WHILE SO IT SHORTED OUT THE FUSES THROUGH THE INCASED ELECTRICAL WIRES. I THINK THAT IT DEFINITELY IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE MY LIFE COULD BE IN A DANGER IF THE SHORTAGE OCCURRED WHEN I DROVE THIS VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY. THEREFORE, I WANTED YOUR AGENCY TO RAISE THIS SAFETY ISSUE RELATED TO HONDA CRV TO HONDA MANUFACTURER AND CONSUMERS WHO ARE CURRENTLY DRIVING A SIMILAR TYPE OF THE VEHICLE. I AM CURRENTLY COOPERATING WITH A REPRESENTATIVE FROM HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE FOR AN INVESTIGATION OF THIS SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. SINCERELY, (XXXX) P.S. ATTACHMENT IS THE REPAIRING STATEMENT FROM CURRY DEALERSHIP. REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED, BUT DECLINED ASSISTANCE DUE TO AN EXPIRED WARRANTY. *JS

I HAD MY TIRES ROTATED AND CAR SERVICED ON 6/21/19 AND ON 6/22/19 MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER DRIVING ONLY 2 MILES ON THE INTERSTATE. I PULLED OVER AND CHECKED MY TIRES AND ALL WERE AT 40LBS. I RESET THE TIRE PRESSURE CENSURE, AND A FEW DAYS LATER I WAS YET AGAIN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. I CHECK MY PRESSURE AGAIN AND ALL WERE 40LBS. BEFORE MY TIRES WERE ROTATED MY LIGHT NEVER CAME ON, AND NOW IT COMES ON AT LEAST 2-3 TIMES A WEEK. NOT SURE IF IT IS THE SENSOR THAT HAS GONE BAD OR IF THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH HOW THE TIRES ARE ROTATING. MY CAR HAS 34,500 MILES ON IT. CHECK TIRE LIGHT ONLY COMES ON WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT; NO POT HOLES WERE HIT AND THE ROADS WERE NOT UNEVEN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SENSOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOSAK HONDA MICHIGAN CITY (LOCATED AT 710 E HWY 20, MICHIGAN CITY, IN 46360, (219) 874-4293) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SOFTWARE NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,500. *TR NOTE: THE TIRE PRESSURE FOR ALL TIRES (INCLUDING SPARE) IS CHECKED AND ADJUSTED FREQUENTLY WHEN THE TIRES ARE COLD. THE TPM IS THEN RESET PER THE HONDA OWNERS MANUAL BUT THE LIGHT SOON COMES BACK ON.*JB

COMPASS WOULD NOT CALIBRATE OR WORK. INITIALLY, DEALER THOUGHT IT WAS A CELL PHONE COMMUNICATION THAT WAS CORRUPTING THE COMPASS OPERATION! TESTS AND REMOVING CELL PHONE CONNECTION TO CAR PROVED IT WAS NOT THE SOURCE OF PROBLEM. PAID DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC BUT THEY DID NOT REPAIR OR RESOLVE PROBLEM. REPORTED ISSUE TO HONDA CORPORATION. EVENTUALLY, WE HAD TO PAY FOR A COMPLETE NEW COMPASS SYSTEM TO BE INSTALLED.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM (TPMS) WARNING SENSOR/LIGHT IS ON WHEN TIRE PRESSURE IS NORMAL. TPMS SENSOR IS DEFECTIVE.

THE CRV STARTS TO SHAKE WHEN SLOWLY ACCELERATING BETWEEN 25 TO 30 MILES AN HOUR GOES AWAY ONCE IT REACHES ABOVE 30 MILE/HOUR. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE THE LAST 8 MONTHS.

GRIDDING NOISE FOR ENGINE STARTED AT 14,000 MILES AND DEALERSHIP SAID HONDA WORKING ON FIX, THEN AT 50,000 REALLY ROUGH IDLE AND NO POWER ,HEAVY VIBRATION WHEN ACCELERATING . STILL NO FIX! 52,000 CR-V IN SHOP AGAIN .

BENT CAR JACK . MY VEHICLE JACK CAR BENDS. I INJURED MY FINGERS IT WAS A SAFETY VIOLATION ON THE PART OF HONDA. SHAME ON HONDA!

I NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD SKATE BETWEEN 25-30 MPH WHEN ACCELERATING. I TOOK IT TO THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, HOPING IT WAS COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT I HAD TO PAY $140 FOR THEM TO JUST CHECK MY VEHICLE. THEN THEY CALLED ME TO TELL ME THAT IT WAS CAUSED BY A SOFTWARE ISSUE AND HONDA HAD CREATED AN UPDATE, WHICH I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO RECEIVE. THAT THEY WOULD ALSO HAVE TO FLUSH MY TRANSMISSION FLUID AS PART OF THIS, AND THAT THE COST WOULD BE $499 WITH LABOR AND TAXES. I THEN ALSO WENT AHEAD AND HAD MY OIL CHANGED AND MY BRAKE FLUID SINCE IT WAS RECOMMENDED. TOTAL BILL WAS $703. I THEN CAME HOME AND STARTED LOOKING UP AND IT APPEARS THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE HAVE/HAD THE SAME ISSUE. MOST WEREN'T CHARGED BY THEIR DEALER FOR THE UPDATE AND FLUID CHANGE, WHICH SEEMS TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. BUT I WAS. AND I HAVE THE SILVER WARRANTY UNDER FIDELITY. AND IT AFFECTED MY POWER TRAIN, BUT THEY CO WIDER IT A SOFTWARE ISSUE, NOT MECHANICAL, SO THEY WOULD NOT COVER IT. HONDA SHOULD NOT CHARGE FOR THIS ISSUE, WHICH WAS CLEARLY AFFECTING ENOUGH PEOPLE TO CAUSE THEM TO HAVE AN UPDATE AVAILABLE. BUT WHY CHARGE FOR IT? IT'S A MALFUNCTION IN THEIR SOFTWARE WHICH AFFECTED THE VEHICLES PERFORMANCE, AND THEY SHOULD HAVE DONE A RECALL AND PROVIDED THIS FOR FREE.

HAVE DRIVEN A SMOOTH 2002 CRV SINCE NEW. IN 2018 BOUGHT 2014 CRV - FRONT END SHIMMIES OFTEN. SOME TIME VERY VIOLENT - CAN FEEL SHAKE ONTO GAS PEDAL AND STEERING WHEEL.SEEMS TOO SENSITIVE TO ANY SMALL (HARD TO SEE) BUMPS ON ROAD. TOOK TO PEARSON PREOWNED (RICHMOND, VA) A MAJOR AUTO SELLER. THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG. HAVE SEARCHED YOUTUBE AND FOUND SOME CLAIMS THAT THE SUPPORTS FOR THE RADIATOR CAN CAUSE THIS WHILE WAITING AT A STOP LIGHT. MY SHAKING DOES NOT OCCUR AT ANY STOP LIGHTS. I DESCRIBE THE SHAKING - LIKE A KID DRIBBLING A BASKETBALL. AND NOT 1-3 BOUNCES, BUT A LOT MORE (PROBABLY CLOSER TO 18). HAPPENS MOST OFTEN WHILE STARTING TO DRIVE DOWN A STREET, OR WHEN ACCELERATING. SCARY - ESPECIALLY WHEN IN MULTIPLE LANE TRAFFIC AND SURROUNDED BY OTHER AUTOS. HAPPENS EVERY TIME I HAVE DRIVEN IT SINCE PURCHASE IN MARCH, 2018. HAS PASSED INSPECTION WITHOUT ANY ISSUES..

WHEN STARTING THE CAR IN THE MORNING THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE. IT IS NOW GETTING WORSE. FROM THE DESCRIPTION SEARCH ON THE INTERNET, THIS SEEMS TO BE MORE COMMON IN THE 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE ISSUE SEEMS TO BE WITH THE VTC ACTUATOR. I BELIEVE THE PART HONDA HAS USED IS DEFECTIVE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE IN EARLIER VERSIONS OF THE CR-V AND ACCORD.

ENGINE RATTLES FOR 2 TO 3 SECONDS ON STARTING THE CAR AFTER A LONG PERIOD (AROUND 8 HOURS). CONTACTED HONDA, AND THEY WANT THE CUSTOMER TO COVER MAJORITY OF THE COST. HONDA SAYS THE ISSUE IS ONLY A NUISANCE AND WILL NOT CAUSE ENGINE DAMAGE, BUT WILL NOT GIVE THIS IN WRITING.

RATTLING NOISE FOR 1 TO 3 SECONDS WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY SINCE PURCHASE. HAVE TALKED WITH DEALER WITH THEY SAY ITS STARTER ($863 NOT UNDER WARRANTY. IF I TURN KEY AND LET SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN START THE ENGINE - NO METAL NOISE. CONTACT AMERICA HONDA - NO CALL OR COMMUNICATION YET

DOES NOT BLOW HEAT OR AIR EASILY. APPEARS TO BE BLOCKED. TAKES FOREVER TO WARM OR COOL CAR. HAD 2005 HONDA CRV WITH NO PROBLEMS

VIBRATION DURING SLOW ACCELERATION AT SPEED 20-45 RPM. BACK OFF ACCELERATION THEN IT WILL GO A WAY. SYMPTOM START TO SHOW UP 65,000 MILES

BATTERY PROVIDED VERY SLOW STARTS AND OTHER ELECTRICAL/ELECTRONIC ANOMALIES ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS WITHIN A MONTH OR SO PRIOR TO TESTING AND REPLACEMENT ON 01/24/17. VEHICLE (AND THE OEM BATTERY) HAD 22,119 MILES AT TIME OF FAILURE, AND HAD BEEN IN SERVICE FOR APPR. 17 MONTHS. NO EVIDENCE OF ABUSE. HONDA REIMBURSED FOR DIAGNOSIS & REPLACEMENT AT INDEPENDENT SHOP.

MY CAR HAS BLACK SOT ALL OVER IT! ON THE OUT SIDE. IT IS DRIVING SLOWLY WITH A FEEL OF A STALL? AND NOT GOING WELL WITH WHAT I FEEL IN THE POWER! I THINK IT MAY BE THE EMISSIONS CONTROLS? & THERE IS A BURNING SMELL WHEN I USE THE HEAT ? WHAT IF ANY THING CAN I DO FROM HERE ?? IT IS IN THE GARAGE AND JUST TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHERE IT COMES FROM? I KNOW ABOUT THE OIL REFINERIES THAT ARE BURNING ? BUT I AM TOO FAR TO HAVE THIS HAPPEN ON MY AUTO? I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AN TOLD ME THAT IS WHAT IT IS ? BUT I HAVE HAD A LOT OF DAMAGE FROM THIEF'S HERE WHERE I LIVE! THE DRUG HEADS NEED TO GO OVER THE WALL I NEED TO SEES IF IT IS THE CAR????

THE HEATER-DEFROSTER DOES NOT WORK IN THE WINTER. THE WINDSHIELD STARTS TO FROST OVER ON THE DRIVERS SIDE MAKING VISIBILITY VERY POOR. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED OR DRIVING SITUATION. THIS VEHICLE HAS ONLY 31,000 MILES ON IT. AFTER DOING RESEARCH, I FOUND ON THE HONDA FORUM THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT WITH THIS YEAR OF CR-V. MANY COMPLAINTS HAD LESS MILEAGE THAN MY CR-V. HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT RECALL THIS VEHICLE. NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING IS A SAFETY HAZARD!!!

MY 2014 HONDA CR-V HAS NO HEAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR NOW. I AM TOLD IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THE FRONT DEFROST DOES NOT WORK ON THE DRIVER SIDE, WHICH MAKES IT UNSAFE TO DRIVE. WARM AIR BLOWS OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE AND COLD AIR BLOWS OUT OF THE DRIVER SIDE. I'VE BEEN TOLD IT IS A CLOGGED HEATER CORE CAUSED BY THE FLUID HONDA USES.

THE A/C COMPRESSOR PULLEY BEARING SEAL IS BROKEN/BUSTED AND IS GRINDING CAUSING A BURNING SMELL. THE IDLER PULLEY BEARING SEAL IS BROKEN/BUSTED AND IS SQUEALING. ALL THE ROUTINE MAINTENANCE IS UP TO DATE. THIS AUTOMOBILE IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND ALREADY HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE BASIC ENGINE COMPONENTS. IS THIS A RARE CASE FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL OR IS IT THAT HONDA IS NO LONGER CONSIDERED TO BE A RELIABLE AUTOMOBILE?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS CONSUMING AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL. THE FAILURE WAS FIRST NOTICED DURING AN OIL CHANGE AND THERE WAS HARDLY ANY OIL IN THE OIL PAN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KELLY HONDA (540 LYNNWAY, LYNN, MA 01905, (781) 484-0160) AND THEY STATED THAT THE VEHICLE NORMALLY CONSUMED THAT AMOUNT OF OIL. THE CONTACT HAD TO TAKE THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER THREE MORE TIMES FOR THE SAME FAILURE AFTER NOTICING THE OIL LEVELS WERE LOW. THE DEALER PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AND ASKED THE CONTACT TO RETURN AFTER 1,000 MILES. WHEN THE CONTACT RETURNED, THE DEALER CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE LEVELS WERE FINE. THE CONTACT WAS NOT CONVINCED AND THE DEALER INFORMED HER TO DRIVE ANOTHER 1,000 MILES AND BRING THE VEHICLE BACK. WHEN THE CONTACT RETURNED, THE DEALER STATED THAT THERE WAS ENGINE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THE REPAIRS; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT COULD PAY THE DEALER $1,500 FOR THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,500. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN.

CRV WAS RATTLING FOR ABOUT A WEEK. STARTED ONLY IN THE MORNING IN THE COLD AND PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE. WE WERE SUPPOSED TO TAKE THE CAR IN TO THE MECHANIC THE NEXT DAY BUT AS MY WIFE WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT'S ENGINE FAILURE AND HAD NO OIL. WE HAD NO OIL LIGHT COME ON AND WE GET ROUTINE OIL CHANGES. CALLED HONDA TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL AND THEY SAID NO AND OFFERED NO HELP. NOW I'M STUCK WITH A WORTHLESS 5 YR OLD CAR THAT I STILL OWE MONEY ON. THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS WHY HASN'T A RECALL BEEN ISSUED? WHY IS NOBODY INVESTIGATING THIS????

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE VIBRATED DRASTICALLY. SCHOMP HONDA (1003 PLUM VALLEY LN, HIGHLANDS RANCH, CO, 1-(303) 798-1500) DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVE SHAFT/PROPELLER AND REAR AXLE MOUNT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE.

I WANT TO ASK YOU TO INVESTIGATE A PROBLEM THAT HAS HONDA WITH THE VTC ACTUATOR (VARIABLE TEMPORAL CONTROL) WHICH LEAD TO A RATTLE NOISE WHEN START IN COOL WEATHER AND MOST OF THE MECHANICS KNOW ABOUT IT. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND PRESENT THE FAIL WHEN STARTED IN COLD CONDITIONS. ON THEIR DEALER OWN WORDS: THE VTC IS WORN OUT CAUSING THE RATTLE SOUND AND CHAIN IS STRETCHED. THE TENSIONER CRACK SEAL NEEDS TO BE CHANGED. ALL OF THEIR ANSWERS MAKE ME THINK IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY KNEW ABOUT IT AND THAT HONDA SHOULD MAKE A RECALL. THE COST WAS THOUSAND AND SIX HUNDRED DOLLARS (1,600). THEY NEEDED TO OPEN THE ENGINE AND THE NOISE DIDN'T GO AWAY EVEN AFTER THE REPAIRS AND THE CAR IS NOW ACCELERATED A LITTLE TOO MUCH. I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR TIME AND YOUR RESPONSE EITHER WAY IS INVESTIGATED OR NOT. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *PM

WHEN THE OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW FREEZING, THE REAR HATCH WILL NOT OPEN. THE LATCH MECHANISM HAS BEEN REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY, AND THE PROBLEM PERSISTS. MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS PROBLEM, WITH MULTIPLE LATCH REPLACEMENTS HAVING NOT SOLVED IT. IT IS A DESIGN DEFECT. IF ONE WERE IN A COLLISION AND THE DOORS WERE JAMMED, PEOPLE COULD NOT BE REMOVED THROUGH THE HATCH. IF ONE HAD A FLAT TIRE BESIDE THE ROAD, THE SPARE COULD NOT BE ACCESSED. IF MEDICATION WERE NEEDED, IT COULD NOT BE RETRIEVED PROMPTLY. THE DATE MENTIONED BELOW IS ONLY ONE OF THE MANY TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED WHEN WE HAVE VISITED COLD WEATHER AREAS. IT HAPPENS EVERY DAY WHEN THE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW FREEZING.

CORROSION FROM THE RADIATOR BUILDS UP IN THE HEATER CORE AND CAUSES THE DRIVERS SIDE DEFROST TO BE INSUFFICIENT. IN WEATHER BELOW 25 DEGREES, ICE EASILY FORMS ON THE WINDSHIELD AND THE DEFROST CAN'T KEEP UP BECAUSE IT ISN'T WARM ENOUGH. VEHICLE HAS HAD HEATER CORE FLUSH MULTIPLE TIMES. IT'S TIME TO REALIZE THAT COMPONENTS ARE FAILED AND NEED ANSWERS. THE PROPER FUNCTIONING OF THE DEFROST IS ESSENTIAL IN SAFE DRIVING.

A KNOWN TSB SHOWS THAT HONDA IS AWARE THAT ISSUES WITH THE RADIATOR/HEATER CORE IS CAUSING DRIVERS SIDE HEAT TO BE CONSIDERABLY LESS THAN THE PASSENGER SIDE. THIS INADEQUATE HEAT SUPPLY TO THE DRIVERS SIDE CAUSES ICE TO EASILY ACCUMULATE AND STICK TO THE DRIVERS SIDE WINDSHIELD IN VIRTUALLY ANY WEATHER CONDITIONS BELOW 20 DEGREES FARENHEIT. THIS CAUSES MUCH CONCERN FOR VISIBILITY AND VARYING PRECIPITATION AND TEMPERATURES CAN MAKE VISIBILITY VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE. HONDA NEEDS TO RECOGNIZE THEIR FAULTY COMPONENTS AND RECALL THESE PARTS IN ORDER TO IMPROVE DEFROSTING ABILITIES AND MAKE OUR ROADWAYS SAFER. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD MANAUFACTURERS TSB PERFORMED ON THE HEATER CORE TWICE WITH ISSUES STILL ARISING TODAY ONLY 20K MILES IN.

CAR SHAKES, JERKS, AND "JUDDERS" BETWEEN 20 AND 40MPH UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. THIS WAS DIAGNOSED BY A HONDA DEALERSHIP AS BEING THE ISSUE ADDRESSED IN HONDA TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN 15-086, BUT THEY WILL ONLY FIX IT AT THEIR COST IF YOU ARE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. FIXING, ACCORDING TO HONDA REQUIRES REPLACING THE TORQUE CONVERTER, UPDATING THE PCM, AND REPLACING THE TRANSMISSION FLUID. THAT'S A PRETTY EXPENSIVE BILL FOR IT BEING THEIR SOFTWARE ISSUE IN THE FIRST PLACE. CAR ALSO MAKE A LOUD GRINDING NOISE ON COLD STARTS. WAS INFORMED THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE VTC ACTUATOR, BUT THERE WAS NO FIX FOR IT.

THE DRIVER SIDE HEAT VENT BLOWS OUT COLD AIR IN MY 2014 HONDA CRV. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO HONDA AND THEY HAVE NOT DONE A RECALL. THIS COLD AIR CAUSES THE WINDOWS TO NOT DEFROST AND, THEREFORE, DIFFICULT TO SEE IN CERTAIN WEATHER CONDITIONS. I HAVE HAD THE HEATER CORE FLUSHED ONCE AND THE ISSUE CAME BACK WITHIN 15,000 MILES. IT IS A RECURRING ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED AS IT IS UNSAFE DRIVING WITH FROSTED WINDOWS DUE TO NO HEAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM AND HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO PROVIDE THE PROPER LIGHT COVERAGE. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE LOW AND HIGH BEAM BULBS; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE WAS NOT CORRECTED. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE HIGH AND LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS WERE ADJUSTED TO THE LOWER POSITION, BUT IT DID NOT CORRECT THE LIGHTING FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS DID NOT PROVIDE WIDE RANGE LIGHTING AND PREVENTED THE CONTACT FROM SEEING A PEDESTRIAN IN THE DISTANCE. THE CONTACT WAS ONLY ABLE TO SEE PEDESTRIANS AT A CLOSE DISTANCE WITH THE LOW BEAMS ACTIVATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000.

ENGINE RATTLE NOISE UPON COLD START.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE AIR VENT BLOWS COLD AIR OUT OF THE VENTS AND TOWARDS THE WINDSHIELD. THUS, I AM UNABLE TO PROPERLY DEFROST MY FRONT WINDSHIELD ON MY 2014 HONDA CRV, CAUSING A POSSIBLE SAFETY HAZARD. HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAS ISSUED TSB #14-063 TO FIX THIS PROBLEM, BUT YET REFUSES TO DO ANY SORT OF RECALL. THE TSB CALLS FOR A FLUSH OF THE HEATER CORE WITH CLR AND THEN THAT SHOULD FIX THE PROBLEM UNTIL THE HEATER CORE GETS PLUGGED AGAIN. TO ME THIS IS A DESIGN/SAFETY PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP. THIS HAPPENS WHENEVER THE HEAT IS ON AND THE CAR IS AT OPERATING TEMPERATURES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS COLD STARTED, THE CONTACT HEARD AN INTENSE GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE NOISE ONLY LASTED FOR A FEW SECONDS, BUT THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED OF ENGINE DAMAGE. THE CONTACT RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND FOUND FORUMS REGARDING THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH O'DONNELL HONDA (8620 BALTIMORE NATIONAL PIKE, ELLICOTT CITY, MD 21043, (410) 461-5000) WHILE THE WARRANTY WAS STILL VALID; HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO REMEDY AT THE TIME. THE WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED AND THE DEALER WOULD NOT ASSIST WITH THE REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE BECAUSE THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000.

NO HEAT DRIVERS SIDE

THE HEATER CORE IN MY 2014 HONDA CRV IS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. HEAT BLOWS HOT ON PASSENGER SIDE, BUT COLD ON DRIVER'S SIDE. MECHANIC SAYS HEATER CORE CLOGGED DUE TO SAND CASTING LEFT IN BLOCK WHEN MANUFACTURED OR ANTIFREEZE CAUSING CORROSION. THIS IS A KNOWN HONDA PROBLEM AND SHOULD BE A RECALL. BACK FLUSHING AND CHEMICALLY CLEANING HEATER CORE DID NOT RESOLVE PROBLEM.

HEATER BLOWS WARM AIR ON PASSENGER AND COLD AIR ON DRIVER. HEATER COIL IS PLUGGED

THE ANTI-FREEZE CORRODES THE RADIATOR CAUSING THE CORE TO BE BLOCKED. BLOWS HOT AIR ON PASSAGE SIDE AND COLD AIR ON DRIVER'S SIDE

IN AUGUST 2018 I BROUGHT VEHICLE TO PRIVATELY OWNED SHOP THAT I TRUST TO RESEARCH A NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE BAY WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE. MECHANIC FOUND THROUGH INSPECTION/RESEARCH THAT TIMING CHAIN LIKELY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED ($1000 JOB) ON 2014 CR-V'S. AT THAT TIME MY VEHICLE WAS LESS THAN 5 YEARS OLD WITH LESS THAN 60,000 MILES, SO IT WAS WITHIN THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTEE PERIOD (5YRS/60KMI). THE MECHANIC ALSO FOUND THAT THE ENGINE WAS LEAKING QUITE A BIT OF OIL FOR SUCH A NEW CAR AND HE SAID IT HAD A CONSUMPTION ISSUE. I CALLED HONDA IN AUGUST 2018, AND STARTED A CASE REGARDING OIL CONSUMPTION AND NOISE RELATED TO TIMING CHAIN. THEY TOLD ME TO BRING VEHICLE TO HONDA DEALERSHIP TO BEGIN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AND TO HAVE NOISE LOOKED AT. I IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO LIA HONDA WHO TOLD ME TO WAIT UNTIL OIL NEEDED TO BE CHANGED TO START CONSUMPTION TEST B/C THE OIL WAS RECENTLY CHANGED AND IT WOULD BE A WASTE OF NEW OIL. I BROUGHT THE CAR INTO KEELER HONDA IN NOVEMBER OF 2018 TO COMPLETE THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WHEN THE OIL NEEDED TO BE CHANGED AND TO HAVE THE NOISE CHECKED OUT. THEY CHANGED THE OIL AND COULDN'T FIGURE OUT THE NOISE, STATING THE CAR WAS FINE. AS I DROVE THE CAR OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS THE NOISE GOT WORSE. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR AND THEY STATED I SHOULD BRING THE CAR BACK TO HONDA BECAUSE IT SHOULD'VE BEEN UNDER WARRANTEE AND SOMETHING WAS DEFINITELY WRONG. I CALLED HONDA MANUFACTURER AND REFERENCED MY CASE FROM AUG OF 2018- THEY AGREED TO DOCUMENT THAT MY CAR WAS COVERED B/C THESE ISSUES STEM FROM WHEN IT WAS UNDER WARRANTEE (NOW HAS 62KMI). KEELER HONDA FOUND A SERVICE BULLETIN TO REPLACE VTC ACTUATOR RELATED TO NOISE. THIS WAS REPLACED AND COVERED BY HONDA. THE CAR STILL HAS OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE! 2015 CR-V'S WERE RECALLED DUE TO OIL CONSUMPTION TO REPLACE THE ENGINE, BUT NOT 2014'S? SAME ISSUE!!!!!

A D V E R T I S E M E N T S WITH ON 34,022 MILES, WHEN THE HEAT AND FAN/BLOWER IS ON, COLD AIR COMES FROM THE DRIVER SIDE VENTS WHILE WARM/HOT AIR BLOWS FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS. RESEARCH INDICATES A CLOG IN THE HEATER CORE. A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN EXISTS FOR THE PROBLEM ATTACHED.THIS ISSUE IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT FROM EITHER: 1) SAND LEFT IN THE COOLANT PASSAGES AFTER THE CASTING OF THE ENGINE BLOCK AND OR 2) HONDA'S COOLANT CONTAINING SEDIMENT AND OR 3) HONDA'S COOLANT CAUSING WEAR TO SURFACES IT COMES IN CONTACT WITH. THE WINDSHIELD FREEZES UP WHEN TRYING TO DEFROST IT AND A SAFETY ISSUE IN WINTER. HONDA NEEDS TO COVER THIS REPAIR- PLEASE ADVISE, THANK YOU.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 35-40 MPH, THE VEHICLE TREMBLED. THE FAILURE SUBSIDED ONLY DURING DECELERATION. WHEN ACCELERATING, THE TREMBLING FAILURE RETURNED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

FUEL CONSUMPTION. LOSING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 1000 MILES. NO OIL LEAK..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 2 MPH AND MAKING A LEFT TURN, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS STRUCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A BROKEN ARM AND FOOT INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW YARD. THE VEHICLE WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS BY THE INSURANCE COMPANY. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 49,000.

GRINDING SOUND FOR 1-2 SECONDS AFTER THE ENGINE STARTS ESPECIALLY DURING COLD START. WHEN I GOOGLED IT, SAME SOUND THAT AFFECTING VTC ACTUATOR.

NO HEAT DRIVERS SIDE.... WINDSHIELD ICES UP AND IT IS AN ISSUE. HEATER CORE ISSUE.

THE DRIVER SIDE VENTS BLOW COLD AIR WHEN THE HEAT IS ON. THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS BLOW HOT AIR. THE HEATER CORE WAS CLOGGED BY MINERAL BUILD UP.

CHRONIC ENGINE LIGHT FROM DEFECTIVE TIMING CHAIN. NOISE (RATTLING) FROM TIMING CHAIN AREA.THE TIMING CHAIN STARTED MAKING NOISE @ 80K. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT STARTED TO ILLUMINATE IN EARLY OCTOBER WITH CODE P0341. CEL ILLUMINATE ON START UP. AFTER CLEARING CODE VEHICLE DRIVING THE REST OF DAY WITHOUT CEL RE ILLUMINATING TO NEXT MORNING. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP (SEE ATTACHED) WHERE THE TECHNICIAN REMOVED THE TIMING COVER EXPOSING FAILED PARTS. AFTER BRIEF INTERNET SEARCH I FOUND NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS OF THIS SAME NATURE REQUIRING TIMING CHAIN AND RELATED PARTS HAVING TO BE REPLACED ON 2013 AND 2014 HONDA CR-V MILEAGE AS 58,000 (SEE ATTACHED). ATTACHED IS A STATEMENT FROM THE MASTER CERTIFIED TECHNICIAN HOW PREFORMED THE REPAIRS. I ALSO HAVE RETAINED ALL PARTS REPLACED. WHEN THE CEL LIGHT ILLUMINATE THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT,STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT,AND ELECTRIC STEERING LIGHT ALSO ILLUMINATED(SEE ATTACHED)

DRVERS SIDE FLOOR VENTS AND FRT VENTS AND DEFOGER BLOWES COOL AIR PASSENGERSIDE VENTS ALL BLOW HOT AIR. AC OPERATES OK HEAT IN WINTER IS PROBLEM. THERE IS A TECH BUL. OUT FOR REPAIR DUE TO HEATER CORE CLOGING UP. HONDA WILL NOT HONOR WARRENTY AND IS FOR 2012 -2014 HONDA CRV'S TECH BUL 14-063. THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR THE FLUSH $400. CAR HAS 30,000MILES AND IS 4YRS OLD. THEY SAY IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE, I CANNOT BELIVE DEFROSTING DRIVERS SIDE WINDOW IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE!!!! I EVEN HAVE 100,000MILE EXT HONDA CARE WARRENTY WHICH I PAYED $2000 FOR.

HATCH SWITCH/HANDLE DOES NOT WORK WHEN THE WEATHER BECOMES COLDER. I HAVE SEEN THIS ISSUE IN MANY FORUMS AND IT AFFECTS EVEN CURRENT MODELS. WHEN IT WARMS UP OUTSIDE THEN IT WORKS AGAIN. THIS SURE SEEMS LIKE A DESIGN DEFECT WHICH HONDA SHOULD ADDRESS VIA A TB AND RECALL TO FIX.

WHEN HEATER IS ON, COLD AIR COMES OUT OF DRIVERS SIDE VENTS AND HOT AIR OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS. IT SOUNDS LIKE A PROBLEM WITH THE HEATER CORE.

CAR HESITATES AND THEN MAY SURGE ON ACCELERATION, ESPECIALLY FROM FULL STOP, ROLLING STOP, OR LOW SPEED, AS IN HIGHWAY MERGING. I SUSPECT THE TRANSMISSION. IT IS INTERMITTENT, AT LEAST SEVERAL TIMES/WEEK FROM 2017-2018.

WHEN THEW HEATER IS ACTIVATED, THE DRIVERS SIDE DOES NOT HEAT. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE PER TSB# 14-063, ATB 00239-01113 REV1 (1411). THIS COMPLAINT IS ALL OVER THE NET AND THE DEALER WILL NOT TOUCH IT...UNLESS I PAY A HIGH PRICE TO REPAIR A POORLY ENGINEERED HEATER CORE.

VTC ACTUATOR NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AT 86,000 MILES. TOOK TO DEALER COST WILL BE $1000.00 NOT COVERED UNDER ANY RECALLS ALTHOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS AND REPAIRS FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL

VARIABLE TIMING CONTROL (VTC) ACTUATOR FAILED AS DESCRIBED IN HONDA TSB 16-012. INFORMED BY HONDA DEALER THAT FAILURE WOULD RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE IF NOT REPAIRED. HONDA REFUSED TO COVER REPAIR.

PASSENGER IN FRONT SEAT WHEN REAR ENDED AT ABOUT 25 TO 30 MPH. SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK WHICH ALLOWED ME TO FLY FORWARD AND HIT DASH BOARD OR FRONT PILLAR

THE SUNROOF SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING ON THE TOLLWAY. THIS WAS PRECEDED BY A LOUD SOUND ABOVE MY HEAD. THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF OBJECT IMPACT FROM THE VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME. I HAVE A DASH CAMERA AND SHOWED NO ABNORMAL ACTIVITY OR OBJECTS FLYING TOWARDS THE CAR. THERE WAS NO DAMAGE ANYWHERE ELSE BUT THE SUNROOF. LUCKILY THE SHADE WAS CLOSED OR I WOULD'VE BEEN SHOWERED WITH BROKEN GLASS.

THE CAR IS HESITANCE DURING ACCELERATION, THE CAR VIBRATES WHILE DRIVING, MORE NOTICED DURING HIGHWAY DRIVING. HIS STARTED AUG 20,2018, WEN I START THE CAR, THE ENGINE MAKES NOISE SHAKES DURING A COLD START. HAVE BEEN TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS IN LATE 2016 THRU MARCH 2018. THIS HAPPENS DURING COLD TEMPERATURES.

HEATER NOT BLOWING HOT AIR. HONDA ANTI-FREEZE SEEMS TO BE DISSOLVING RADIATOR

ENTERING A PARKING SPACE AT A LOCAL CVS THE CAR SELF ACCELERATED TO A VERY HIGH SPEED. THE CAR CHARGED FORWARD . THE BRAKES COULD NOT STOP THE CAR UNTIL IT SLAMMED INTO 2 PARKED CARS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE STORE ENTRANCE.ALSO, THE SAFETY BAGS DID NOT OPEN. THE CAR WAS LIKE A RAGING BULL. THE CAR WENT OVER 1 PARKING BLOCK CROSSING OVER THE FRONT OF THE STORE ,OVER ANOTHER BLOCK BEFORE STOPPING.. THE ACCELERATOR WENT BERSERK WITHOUT ANY FOOT ON THE GAS PEDAL. I AM UNABLE TO SCAN ANY REPORTS ELECTRONIALLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUDDERED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE ONLY OCCURRED AT 25 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LINDSAY HONDA (5959 SCARBOROUGH BLVD, COLUMBUS, OH 43232, (614) 864-5250) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE SERVICED AND THE VEHICLE ALSO NEEDED A HARDWARE UPDATE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS AGAIN DIAGNOSED BY THE SAME DEALER AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

BATTERY DIES RANDOMLY AND CAR WILL NOT START WITHOUT A JUMP. DEALERSHIPS COULD NOT FIND PROBLEM WITH BATTERY OR CAR. AFTER A YEAR OR SO OF THIS HONDA REPLACED BATTERY. IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN WITHIN ABOUT A YEAR. STOPPED ON THE SHOULDER OF BUSY HWY...NO WAY TO ESCAPE! THERE ARE TOO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADRESSED.

ENGINE SPUTTERS WHEN GOING INTO 2ND GEAR.

MY 2014 HONDA CRV WITH 75,000 MILES IS IN NEED OF A DRIVE SHAFT. I CANNOT FIND A RECALL ON THIS. HONDA IS DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT. MY MECHANIC WAS INFORMED THAT THERE HAS BEEN TROUBLE WITH THIS PART ON OTHER 2014 MODELS.AS A MATTER OF FACT THE PART WAS BACKORDERED! IT SEEMS ABSURD TO ME THAT THIS SHOULD HAPPEN IN 75,000 MILES. CAN YOU HELP ME? AS YOU KNOW THIS WILL COST ME BETWEEN $2500.00-$3000.00!!! OF COURSE I WILL NOT PURCHASE ANOTHER HONDA VEHICLE SINCE THE CUSTOMER DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER TO THAT COMPANY]!

DRIVING SLOWLY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC ON I-95 IN PHILA CAR STALLED AND WAS RESTARTED, BUT BATTERY LIGHT STAYED ON. ENGINE TEMPERATURE INDICATOR WAS NORMAL. AFTER 15 MINUTES OF ADDITIONAL SLOW DRIVING CAR STARTED SMOKING UNDER THE HOOD. SOON AFTER PULLING OVER TO SHOULDER, FLAMES STARTED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND A SHORT TIME LATER THE ENTIRE CAR WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. 911 WAS CALLED, POLICE AND FIRE TRUCK CAME. CAR WAS TOTALLY DESTROYED. MILEAGE WAS APPROX 32,000 AND VEHICLE WAS WELL-MAINTAINED. PHILADELPHIA POLICE (OR POSSIBLY PA STATE POLICE) REPORT WAS FILED: PA2018.545044. I UPLOADED TWO VERY GRAPHIC PICTURES - ONE SHOWING ENTIRE VEHICLE ENGULFED IN FLAMES. IF YOU DID NOT RECEIVE, PLEASE CONTACT ME.

APRIL 26, 2018 I BOUGHT MY WIFE'S HONDA 2014 CR-V NEW IN OCTOBER OF 2014. WE ARE BOTH QUITE HAPPY WITH THE CAR, WITH ONE SIGNIFICANT EXCEPTION. THE TPMS DOES NOT WORK. IN 2014 HONDA CHANGED THEIR TPMS FROM THE CONVENTIONAL SYSTEM WHICH USES PRESSURE SENSORS IN THE WHEELS. INSTEAD, IT COMPARES THE REVOLUTIONS OF THE TIRES ON THE THEORY THAT A LOW TIRE WILL ROTATE FASTER THAN A NORMALLY INFLATED TIRE. THIS IS A GOOD IDEA IN THEORY. HOWEVER, IN PRACTICE IT DOES NOT WORK. THE SOFTWARE MUST ACCOUNT FOR THE FACT THAT THE TIRES DO NOT ROTATE EQUALLY ON TURNS. ALSO, SLIGHT (AND ACCCEPTABLE) DIFFERENCES IN PRESSURE OR TIRE WEAR WILL RESULT IN ERRORS THAT THE SOFTWARE MUST DEAL WITH. HONDA ISSUED TSB 14-006 IN AN ATTEMPT TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM, BUT IF IT HAS BEEN APPLIED TO OUR CAR IT HAS NOT WORKED. THE TPMS LIGHT ON OUR CR-V IS UNRELIABLE. IT OCCASIONALLY LIGHTS WHEN THE TIRES ARE OK, BUT HAS FAILED TO INDICATE LOW OR FLAT TIRES FOR US SEVERAL TIMES. MY WIFE WENT TO THE DEALER IN PRESCOTT, AZ, THIS MORNING TO ASK WHETHER TSB 14'006 HAS BEEN APPLIED TO THE CAR. THE REPLY WAS THAT THERE IS NO RECALL AND IF THE TPMS LIGHT DOES NOT STAY ON, THERE IS NO NEED TO DO IT. WE CAN LIVE WITH A NON-FUNCTIONAL TPMS SYSTEM. OUR PREVIOUS CARS WORKED WELL WITHOUT IT. OUR NORMAL MAINTENANCE PROCEDURES REQUIRE CHECKING TIRE PRESSURES PERIODICALLY. FOR SOME REASON THIS CAR DOES NOT PULL TO THE SIDE WHEN A TIRE GOES FLAT. A TPMS SHOULD FLAG A TIRE FAILURE WHEN ON THE ROAD. THREE TIMES WE HAVE HAD A TIRE FAIL WHILE DRIVING, WITH NO TPMS INDICATION. OUR LOSS HAS BEEN ONLY THREE TIRES; NO ACCIDENT RESULTED. IN MY OPINION THIS IS POTENTIALLY A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM.

PURCHASED THE CAR IN DECEMBER 2014. TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT KEPT COMING ON. SHORTLY AFTER, PASSENGER AIRBAG OFF LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY LIT. A FEW DAYS AGO, SIDE AIRBAG OFF INDICATOR CAME ON AND STAYED ON.

TAKATA RECALL I HAVE NOTICED SINCE I HAVE BOUGHT MY CRV THAT MY AIRBAG LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD SPORADICALLY GOES ON AND OFF, AND I WONDERED IF IT HAD ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE INSTABILITY OF THE AIRBAGS.

TAKATA RECALL - THE AIRBAG PICTURE ON THE DASH BOARD IS ON AND WILL NOT DISAPPEAR

THE TIRE GAUGE LIGHT WILL NOT RESET. I MADE SURE THE TIRES WERE INFLATED CORRECTLY. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC FOR A NORMAL BRAKE REPAIR. I ASKED HIM TO REST THE TIRE GAUGE. HE ADVISED ME THE GAUGE SENSORS ARE NOT WORKING ON ANY OF THE TIRES.

DID NOT DEPLOY 2016 ACCIDENT IN MOTION STREET

VTC ACTUATOR IS FAULTY. JUST OVER 65000 MILES.

IT STARTED ABOUT 1YR AFTER GETTING THIS CRV, UPON CRANKING MAKING A GRINDING NOISE I TOOK TO SHOP SEVERAL TIMES THEY DID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG, NOW HERE LATELY I'VE HAD TO BOOST OF MY CRV SEVERAL TIMES, DO I TOOK TO SHOP TO CHECK BATTERY WHICH IS FINE, I DON'T HAVE TIME NOR MONEY TO KEEP GOING TO SHOP TO NOT HAVE ANYTHING DONE. I DESPERATLY AM AFRAID TO GO ANYWHERE OTHER THAN WORK IN FEAR IT WONT CRANK. IT ACTS LIKE IT WANRS TO TURN OVER BUT DOESN'T THEN SOMETIMES IT CRANKS RIGHT UP. I FEEL AS THOUGH THIS IS A LEMON & HONDA SHOULD HAVE TO DO SOMETHING FOR THE ONES THAT ARE GOING THROUGH THIS CRAP. I THOUGHT HONDA WAS A RELIABLE VEHICLE. I TRADED IN NISSIAN FOR THIS UGHH

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE POWER STEERING, STABILITY, TIRE PRESSURE, AND CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER (HUGGINS HONDA, 7551 NE LOOP 820, NORTH RICHLAND HILLS, TX 76180) STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND ADVISED THE CONTACT TO SCHEDULE A SERVICE APPOINTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE LOCAL DEALER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 41,000.

THE COMPASS INDICATOR LIGHT WILL CONTINUOUSLY FLASH THE WRONG DIRECTION. THIS CAN HAPPEN WHEN STARTING THE CAR AS WELL AS WHEN THE CAR IS RUNNING EITHER IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. FOLLOWING THE RECALIBRATION INSTRUCTIONS IN THE MANUAL (DRIVING SLOWLY IN TIGHT CIRCLES) WILL USUALLY FIX THE PROBLEM TEMPORARILY. THIS FIX MAY LAST A DAY OR AS LITTLE AS 10 MINUTES.

GRINDING SOUND FROM ENGINE DURING COLD START. GRINDING SOUND LAST A FEW SECONDS WHEN ENGINE IS COLD.

A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO, ON FEBRUARY 16TH OR 17TH I STRUGGLED TO PUT MY SEATBELT ON. THIS WAS THE FIRST I HAD SEEN OF ANY ISSUES WITH MY SEATBELT. AS I INVESTIGATED FOR THAT I COULD SEE THAT BOTH THE SEATBELTS IN THE BACK HAD BEEN AFFECTED AND SO HAD THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT. I BOOKED AN APPOINTMENT WITH HONDA DEALERSHIP SCOTT ROBINSON IN TORRANCE AND WAS MET BY A VERY HOSTILE MEMBER OF STUFF WHO TOOK A LOOK AROUND MY CAR (NO TESTING OR INVESTIGATIONS) AND THEN QUOTED $1387 FOR PARTS AND $800 FOR LABOR. THE EMPLOYEE PROCEEDED, WITHOUT HAVING DONE ANY INVESTIGATIONS, THAT EITHER MY SON (REFERRING TO AUTISTIC BEHAVIORS) OR THE DOG DAMAGED MY SEATBELTS. I TOLD HIM NOT TO EQUATE AUTISM WITH VANDALISM, MY SON IS AUTISTIC BUT HE IS NOT A SAVAGE ALSO I CHALLENGE ANY HUMAN TO CHEW THROUGH SEATBELTS. THE EMPLOYEE THEN PROCEEDED TO CLAIM HE KNEW ALL ABOUT AUTISM AND COULD CRITICIZE AS HE PLEASED. I UNDERSTAND SCOTT ROBINSON ARE A PRIVATE DEALERSHIP BUT I WILL SAY THE BEHAVIOR OF THEIR STAFF IS APPALLING. I DECIDED IT WOULD BE BEST I TAKE MY CAR AND LEAVE AS I FELT THAT THE LACK OF INVESTIGATION AND IGNORING THE FACT THAT THERE IS A WARRANTY ON THE SEATBELTS TOPPED WITH INSULTING MY DISABLED SON WAS ENOUGH FOR ME TO BE THERE ANYMORE. I HOPE HONDA WILL HELP ME WITH THIS AND INVESTIGATE THE BELT FEED AS IT SEEMS THAT THE ISSUE IS INTERNAL RATHER THAN EXTERNAL. SOMETHING INSIDE THE BELT FEED IS CATCHING OR GRAZING THAT IS HAS WORN THE BELT DOWN INTO FRAYING.

I PURCHASED MY USED CERTIFIED 2014 HONDA CR-V EX-L 11/2016 AND THE CAR SEEMED TO RUNNING SMOOTH AND VERY QUITE. I TOOK IT IN FOR THE FIRST SERVICE CALL THE CAR DIDN'T RUN THE SAME, I EVEN WHEN BACK A FEW DAYS AFTER THE CAR WAS SERVICED. SINCE THE IF I MAKE A SUDDEN STOP THE CAR STOPS AND I FINALLY HEAR THE TRANSMISSION CATCHING UP AND THIS CAUSE THE CAR TO JERK BACK IN THE SITTING POSITION. IF I AM GOING ABOUT TO GO THROUGH MY DRIVE THRU MINI MARKET AND I HAVE TO WAIT ON ANOTHER CAR AND THEN PROCEED THE TRANSMISSION ACTS AS IF IT DOESN'T WANT TO MOVE AND IT FINALLY JUMPS INTO GEAR WHICH ALLOWS THE CAR TO MOVE FORWARD. THIS IS MY 5TH PURCHASE WITH HONDA, 1988 HATCH BACK CIVIC, 1990 HONDA ACCORD, HONDA CIVIC, 2003 HONDA ELEMENT AND NOW 2014 HONDA CR-V EX-L. IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS I HAVE FOUND IF I AM SITTING AND HIT THE GAS THE CAR EXCELS REALLY FAST AND IT SCARES ME. I HAVE READ A FEW REVIEWS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUES WITH HOW THE CAR EXCELS REALLY FAST.

THE ORIGINAL BATTERY OF MY HONDA CRV KEEPS DYING. LOCAL HONDA DEALER DID NOT COVER THE REPLACEMENT AND I HAVE TO PAY $200 OUT OF MY POCKET TO REPLACE. ITS BEEN ONLY 3 YEARS SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR AND THE BATTERY IS ALREADY DRAINING OUT. I HAVE BEEN STRANDED IN UNSAFE PLACES AS A RESULT, WAITING FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO COME JUMPSTART THE CAR. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER (DUBLIN HONDA), THEY SAID THE BATTERY IS FAULTY AND ITS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO REPLACE IT. I ENDED UP PAYING $200 FOR REPLACEMENT OF BATTERY AND ALL THE INCONVENIENCE OF GETTING STRANDED AT UNSAFE, UNSECURE PLACES WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR.

DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY DURING A SNOW STORM THE HEATER WAS BLOWING COLD AIR ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. THE WINDSHIELD ICED OVER AND I COULD NOT SEE.

ENGINE METAL RATTLING NOISE ON COLD START UP. VERY DISTURBING. ENGINE HAS A ROUGH START AS RESULT.

HONDA CRV 2014 NOICE IN THE ENGINE WHEN I'M DRIVING THE CAR AND IS ANNOYING VERY BAD . NIGHT LIGHT IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY THE LIGHT IS NOT BRIGHT AN ACCIDENT CAN HAPPEN AC A GAS SMELL IS COMING FROM INSIDE THE AC

ON COLD START, THE ENGINE GRINDS FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE NEW AND THIS HAS HAPPENED PERIODICALLY SINCE. DEALER SERVICE SHOP USUALLY CANNOT REPLICATE IT BECAUSE IT ONLY HAPPENS ON COLD START AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT. FINALLY GOT THEM TO REPLICATE THE NOISE IN JANUARY 2016 AND DIAGNOSED AS A VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEM. APPARENTLY A VERY WELL KNOWN PROBLEM AND "THEY FIX THESE ALL THE TIME, KNOWN ISSUE". A WEEK LATER THE NOISE STARTED AGAIN AND NOW THE DEALER CAN'T REPLICATE AGAIN. I ONLY HAVE 10 MONTHS LEFT ON MY WARRANTY AND THEY SAY THEY WON'T REPLACE IT AGAIN BECAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT. IF IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE, THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED AGAIN ASAP. WORRIED ABOUT THE LONGEVITY OF THE ENGINE, GIVEN THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE DAY ONE.

RATTLING NOISE FOR 1 TO 3 SECONDS WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE AT TEMPERATURES AROUND 35 DEGREES F. THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY SINCE PURCHASE. HAVE TALKED WITH DEALER WITH NO RESOLUTION.

REAR DOOR LATCH WON'T OPEN IN COLD WEATHER. THIS STARTED WHEN THE CAR WAS JUST 2 YEARS OLD. NOW 3 1/2 AND NEEDS REPLACEMENT.

MY 2014 CR-V EX-L BEGAN TO GIVE ME STARTING PROBLEMS SINCE LATE 2016. IT OCCURS RANDOMLY, AND CAN OCCUR EITHER IN MORNING OR DAYTIME. THE FIRST TIME IT OCCURRED AND I TOOK IT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP THEY BLAMED IT ON SOME CHARGING SOFTWARE ISSUE AND SAID THEY FIXED IT BY INSTALLING A SOFTWARE UPDATE. IT WORKED FINE FOR A FEW WEEKS AFTER BUT THE PROBLEM REOCCURRED LATER. IT CAN HAPPEN IN SUMMER OR WINTER, AND TOTALLY RANDOMLY. HONDA DEALER SERVICE ASSURED ME MULTIPLE TIMES THEY CAN'T FIND ANY PROBLEM WITH BATTERY OR ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. AT THIS POINT I AM TOTALLY AT LOSS ABOUT WHAT TO DO. I CAN GET A NEW BATTERY, BUT WHAT AM I GOING TO DO IF THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN. I CAN NEVER PREDICT WHEN OR HOW IT WILL SHOW UP. IT CAN START WITHOUT ANY PROBLEMS EVEN ON A REALLY COLD DAY, OR IT WOULD NOT START AFTER I MAKE A 20 MINUTE STOP AT THE GROCERY STORE. NEVER EXPECTED THIS WHEN I BOUGHT A HONDA.

2014 HONDA CR-V, LX DO NOT HAVE FLOOR VENT WORKING ON PASSENGER SIDE. THIS WAS JUST NOTICED IN A VERY COLD WEATHER AND HAD TO HAVE ELDERLY PASSENGER TO TRANSPORT. SO FAR THERE WAS NO OTHER RIDER IN THIS VEHICLE BECAUSE WE HAD THE OTHER VEHICLE FOR SUCH USE. THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR VENT WAS BLOWING BURNING HOT AIR, WHILE IT IS FREEZING COLD ON PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR AREA.

SUMMER 2016, DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED, THE CLOSED SUNROOF "EXPLODED", VIOLENTLY SHAKING THE CAR. UPON INSPECTION, THE REMAINING GLASS WAS BOWED OUTWARD, AND THE CLOSED SUN SHADE HAD NO DAMAGE. THERE WAS ALSO NO NEARBY OVERPASS, OR MUCH TRAFFIC - IN OTHER-WORDS, SO EVIDENCE THAT A ROCK OR OTHER PROJECTILE BROKE THE SUNROOF FROM THE OUTSIDE GOING INWARDS

RATTLING NOISE FOR 1 OR 2 SECONDS WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE AT TEMPERATURES AROUND 35 DEGREES F.

AS THE TEMPERATURES DROP, MY CAR MAKES A HORRIBLE GRINDING NOISE AS THOUGH SOMETHING IS SEIZING IN THE ENGINE WHENEVER I START THE CAR WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD. THE NOISE ONLY LASTS A FEW SECONDS, AFTER WHICH THE CAR RUNS PERFECTLY FINE. THE PROBLEM TENDS TO OCCUR WHENEVER I START THE CAR AFTER IT HAS BEEN SITTING UNUSED FOR HOURS IN COLD WEATHER. THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH HONDAS AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPER DRAGS WATER ACROSS THE WINDSHIELD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DURING THE RETURN SWIPE FROM THE SIDE OF THE WINDSHIELD BACK TO CENTER, OBSTRUCTING MY VIEW WHEN DRIVING. THE HARDER IT RAINS, THE WORSE THE OBSTRUCTION IS. I'VE TAKEN VIDEO WITH MY PHONE AND GIVEN IT TO THE DEALER. THEY CHANGED OUT THE WIPER BLADE IN CASE THAT WAS THE PROBLEM, BUT IT CONTINUES. IT IS VERY BAD DURING HEAVIER RAINS AND WHEN DRIVING AT FASTER SPEEDS. IT SEEMS TO BE WORSE AT DRIVING SPEEDS OVER 40 MILES PER HOUR. IT HAPPENS GOING STRAIGHT AND ON TURNS. IT STARTED WHEN THE CAR WAS BRAND NEW, BUT I JUST LEARNED ABOUT THIS SITE WHILE FOLLOWING UP ON A RECALL NOTICE I RECENTLY RECEIVED IN THE MAIL.

ENGINE MAKES A GRINDING SOUND UPON START UP ON COLD MORNINGS FOR A FEW SECONDS WHILE PARKED. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE I PURCHASED CAR. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES, BUT THEY CANNOT TELL ME WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS FROM OWNERS ABOUT THE VTC ACTUATOR, BUT THIS WAS NEVER MENTIONED TO ME. CONCERNED THIS WILL LEAD TO PROBLEMS IF NOT ADDRESSED.

THE TRUNK LATCH STICKS AND CAUSES YOU TO BE UNABLE TO OPEN YOUR TRUNK. OVER THE PAST COUPLE MONTHS THE LATCH STARTED TO STICK WHICH I CHALKED UP TO THE COLD WEATHER CAUSING IT TO STICK BUT NOW IT DOESN'T OPEN AT ALL.

VEHICLE SHAKES WHILE IN MOTION WHEN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS BETWEEN 25MPH-45MPH USING OVER-DRIVE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN OVER-DRIVE IS TURNED OFF. TRANSMISSION COMPUTER HAS BEEN UPDATED BUT THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM AS HOPED BY HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE PROBLEM IS ON-GOING.

I WAS DRIVING 45 MILES A HOUR DOWN A STREET . I HIT MY BRAKES AND THEY DID NOT WORK AND MY SEATBELT LOCKED AND I HIT A CAR HEAD ON . I HIT HIS DRIVER DOORS FRONT AND BACK. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY

TAMARA RECALL ON AIRBAGS. WHEN AIRBAGS DEPLOY THEY MAY CONTAIN AND/OR SPREAD METAL SEPSIS TOWARD VEHICLE OCCUPANTS AND CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY.

VTC ACTUATOR GRINDS ON START UP ..RECURRING ON FIRST START UP... I SEE DOZENS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS WHY NOT A RECALL

ON COLD START ENGINE MAKES LOUD GRINDING SOUND. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED IN JANUARY 2016 AND HAS CONTINUOUSLY DONE THIS ON COLD MORNINGS

AT COLD START-UP, THE ENGINE RATTLES LOUDLY FOR ABOUT 2 SECONDS. THIS ONLY OCCURS ON THE FIRST START OF THE DAY. I WOULD LIKE TO NOTE DOT HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN SB-10041669-6712 HAS NOT BEEN UPDATED SINCE OCTOBER 6,2012 AND THEREFOR ONLY COVERS HONDA CR-V'S UP UNTIL 2012. THIS ISSUE IS EASILY FOUND ON HONDA FORUMS SUCH AS HONDAPROBLEMS.COM AND MULTIPLE TIMES HERE: HTTPS://HONDA-TECH.COM/FORUMS/HONDA-ELEMENT-CR-V-156/2014-CR-V-GRINDING-NOISE-START-UP-3228595/ 5 YEARS FOR A SERVICE BULLETIN UPDATE IS SIMPLY IRRESPONSIBLE PROBLEM MANAGEMENT ON HONDA'S BEHALF. THE SUPPORTING EVIDENCE IS READILY AVAILABLE FROM MANY CR-V OWNERS ON FORUMS, NOT TO MENTION THE LARGE AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS DIRECTLY ON THE NHTSA WEBSITE. CORRECT THIS ISSUE AND TAKE ACTION.

UPON STARTING CAR IN THE MORNING, CAR IS STATIONARY, WITH TEMPERATURES BELOW FREEZING, THE ENGINE MAKES A GRINDING NOISE, IF ONLY FOR A FEW SECONDS.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING CONSTANTLY GOES ON WHEN TIRES ARE GOOD.

CAR HAD BRIEF NOISE AT COLD START UP X5 THIS LED TO DASHBOARD LIGHTS INVESTIGATING THE INFORMATION THROUGH OTHER COMPLAINTS. TOOK INTO HONDA THE VTC ACTUATOR AND TIMING CHAIN HAD FAILED THIS WAS REPAIRED AT HONDA - NO RECALL NOTICE TO ME - FOUND SEVERAL PUBLIC NOTICES AND BULLETINS TO SUPPORT THE ISSUE

MY WIFE WAS DRIVING TO WORK AT 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, 8 PM, TEMPERATURE APPROX. 75F IN MILPITAS, CA. THE SUN ROOF WAS COMPLETELY CLOSED AND THE INSIDE SLIDING COVER WAS CLOSED(THANK GOODNESS) WHEN IT SUDDENLY SHATTERED.SHE DID NOT SEE ANY OBJECT IMPACT IT. NO OVERPASSES, LIGHT TRAFFIC. ON CLOSER INSPECTION THE NEXT MORNING, I OBSERVED THE REMAINING LARGE PIECES WERE FLARED OUTWARD, AS IF IT HAD EXPLODED.( PLEASE FIND PHOTOS) I HAVE SINCE BECOME AWARE THAT THESE TYPES OF FAILURES ARE BECOMING MUCH MORE FREQUENT.(REPAIR RECEIPT ALSO ATTACHED)

SHATTERED GLASS SUNROOF , OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING. SHADE GUARD PREVENTED GLASS FROM ENTERING CAR. NO FOREIGN OBJECT FOUND THAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE SUNROOF TO SHATTER.

LOUD GRINDING SOUND WHEN STARTING THE CAR IN THE GARAGE. THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE PAST ON COLD DAYS BUT TEMPERATURE TODAY WAS IN THE 50S. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT DAMAGE FROM THIS AS THE DAYS HERE IN WISCONSIN ARE ONLY GOING TO GET COLDER. I AM KEEPING A RUNNING LIST OF OCCURRENCES AND DOCUMENTING DATES AND TEMPERATURES.

MILEAGE 20630. HAD JUST RETURNED HOME AND PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY. SUDDEN STRONG ODOR OF RAW GASOLINE AND VEHICLE QUIT RUNNING. I FOUND A LARGE POOL OF GAS JUST AHEAD OF THE LEFT REAR WHEEL. I MOVED THE LEFT REAR SEAT TO EXPOSE THE FUEL PUMP HOUSING AND FOUND A POOL OF GAS AROUND THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK AT THE FUEL PUMP. I FOUND A HOLE HAD WORN THROUGH THE HARD PLASTIC FUEL LINE ABOUT 6 INCHES FROM THE PUMP CAUSED BY RUBBING ON THE UNDERSIDE OF THE REAR SEAT METAL FRAME. I REPAIRED THE HOLED AREA OF THE FUEL LINE WITH THE PROPER HARD PLASTIC FUEL LINE REPAIR KIT.

I WAS PULLING INTO MY PARKING SPACE AT WORK AT ABOUT 5 MILES AN HOUR. I APPLIED THE BRAKE AND SUDDENLY ACCELERATED AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED INTO THE BRICK WALL OF THE BUILDING ABOUT 10 FEET AWAY. FRONT END DAMAGE TO THE CAR AND DAMAGE TO THE BUILDING. THIS IS THE 2ND TIME I HAVE HAD SUDDEN ACCELERATION. THE FIRST TIME I WAS PREPARING TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE BUT I WAS FURTHER AWAY FROM THE BUILDING. I STOMPED ON THE BRAKES REPEATEDLY AND WAS ABLE TO STOP JUST BEFORE HITTING ANYTHING.

CAR HESITATES AND THEN MAY SURGE ON ACCELERATION, ESPECIALLY FROM FULL STOP, ROLLING STOP, OR LOW SPEED, AS IN HIGHWAY MERGING. I SUSPECT THE TRANSMISSION. IT IS INTERMITTENT, AT LEAST SEVERAL TIMES/WEEK FROM 2014-2017. HONDA WON'T ADDRESS IT BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT.

AIR IS GETTING INTO THE PASSENGER SIDE PROBABLY THROUGH DEFECTIVE WINDOW SEAL. MAY BE DOOR GLASS SEPARATION FROM REGULATOR. HAS BEEN THIS WAY FOR THREE YEARS. HONDA WON'T DEAL WITH IT.

CAR HAS A LOUD RATTLE OR GRINDING SOUND ON A COLD STARTUP. LAST A COUPLE OF SECONDS THEN GOES AWAY. HAS DONE THIS FOR 3 YEARS, SINCE I GOT IT.

TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT COMES ON WHEN PRESSURE IS FINE AND/OR COMES BACK ON AFTER RECALIBRATION AND CORRECT PRESSURE IN TIRES IN CONFIRMED. HAS DONE THIS FOR 3 YEARS, INTERMITTENTLY. HONDA WON'T DEAL WITH THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE IT.

SHUDDER OR VIBRATION WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT 20-40MPH SPEED.

WITHIN THE LAST 5 TO 6 MONTHS, MY VEHICLE KEEPS CUTTING OFF. I WOULD NEED TO GET SOMEONE TO JUMP ME. THE BATTERY WAS CHECKED AND THE STARTER AND ALTERNATOR. A NEW STATER WAS PUT IN ON LAST FRIDAY AND SUNDAY IT DID THE EXACT SAME THING. I NEEDED A JUMP BUT IT WOULD ONLY JUMP AFTER SITTING FOR AN HOUR OR SO. MY VEHICLE IS NOW IN THE SHOP AGAIN DUE TO THE SAME ISSUES. I'M A WIDOW AND I DONT KNOW MUCH ABOUT CARS BUT I KNOW THIS PROBLEM SHOULDN'T BE HAPPENING SO FREQUENTLY.

THIS PRESENT DAY MY CAR MAKES A SREAMING NOISE LIKE BELT IS BAD THEY CHANGED THE BELT THE ALTERNATOR AND SOMETHING ELSE AND THEY CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM. I ASKED FOR A 2017 WHEN I CAME IN TO BUY A VEHICLE THE DEALER INSISTED ON ME GETTING THIS 2014 WHEN I ASKED MULTIPUL TIMES FOR A 2017 HE SAID THIS IS A GOOD DEAL. THE FIRST DAY I GOT IT 6/16/2017 THE VIBARTION WAS BAD I HAD TO BRING IT BACK 6/17/2107 THEY HAD IT 4 DAYS. I PICKED IT UP AND ON THE SAME DAY THE LIGHTS WERE DIMMING. SAT MOORNING I REPORTED THE ISSUE. 3PM I GOT IN THE VEHICLE TO CHANGE MY SHIFT AT WORK IT WOULD NOT START. THE MAN WHO CAME TO TOW IT COULD NOT START IT ON ARIVIAL. MON 6/22/2017 I CAME IN AND DEMANDED A NEW CAR LIKE I REQUESTED WHEN I CAME IN BECAUSE THIS VEHICLE WAS HAVING TO MANY PROBLEMS FOR ME TO BE PAYING $25,643. THE DEALER WANTED TO GIVE ME 1,000 LESS THAN I PAID FOR IT AND CHARGE ME $32,300 FOR A HONDA CRV LX 4WD THATS MARKED 27,285 ONLINE. I REFUSED TO PAY THAT AND FELT LIKE I AM BEING CHEATED. HE SAID THE PROBLEM COULD BE MINOR LET THEM FIX IT. I AM PAYING $25,643 FOR THIS CAR AND ITS BEEN IN THE SHOP 3XS WITHIN 2 MONTHS. THEY WANT ME TO KEEP THIS CAR AND I KEEP REQUESTING A 2017 BECAUSE THATS WHAT I CAME IN FOR AND THE DEALER SAT BACK IN HIS CHAIR AND KEAP TELLING ME THE 2014 HONDA EXL IS A GOOD DEAL AND DID NOT SHOW ME THE 2017 HE WANTED ME TO GET THE 2014 HONDA CRV EXL WHEN I WANTED A 2017 LX SPECIAL ADITION 4WD. I ADMIT IT IS A NICE VEHICLE BUT IT HAS TOO MANY PROBLEMS AND I WANT MY MONEY BACK AND GET THE 2017 LX CRV I REQUESTED AND I WANT A DIFFERENT DEAL THATS NOT GOING TO CHEAT ME OUT OF MY MONEY. SOUTH HILLS WAS HONEST THEY WAS GIVING ME 2017 FOR 400 AMONTH AT $27,285 WHEN MY CREDIT CAME UP AND AT THE TIME IT DID IT WAS FAIR

ON THE MORNING OF JULY 25TH, 2017, I OBSERVED A PROBLEM WITH THE REAR WINDOW IN MY 2014 HONDA CRV . UNLOCKING AND OPENING THE DRIVER'S DOOR TO PUT SOMETHING IN AND THEN CLOSING THE DOOR, I HEARD A LOUD CRUNCHING NOISE COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE CAR. THE DRIVER'S DOOR WAS OPENED AGAIN AND I GOT INTO THE CAR AND SHUT THE DOOR. AGAIN THE SAME CRUNCHING NOISE WAS HEARD. LOOKING IN THE REAR-VIEW MIRROR, I OBSERVED THE REAR WINDOW HAD SHATTERED INTO A "MILLION" PIECES. THE NOISE THAT WAS HEARD WAS THE PIECES OF GLASS DROPPING OUT OF THE WINDOW. IN ADDITION TO THE GLASS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDOW THAT WAS DROPPING OUT, I OBSERVED THE EDGES AROUND THE GLASS WERE ALSO MISSING (HAD FALLEN OUT). I AM THE ONLY DRIVER OF THE CAR AND DO NOT REMEMBER ANYTHING HITTING THE WINDOW FROM THE OUTSIDE OR INSIDE. ALL THE DOORS HAD BEEN LOCKED SO IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE ATTEMPTED BURGLARY. IT IS PRESUMED THAT THE GLASS SHATTERED AND IMPLODED DUE TO DEFECTIVE GLASS MANUFACTURING AND/OR INSTALLATION. THE TEMPERATURES IN OUR AREA CAN REACH 100 DURING THE DAY AND DOWN TO 65 DURING THE NIGHT.

I HAVE OWNED 2014 CR-V FOR 3 & HALF YEARS SINCE IT WAS NEW. THE INDIRECT TPMS WARNING SYSTEM HAS NEVER BEEN CORRECT, IT ALWAYS GIVES FALSE READINGS. WHEN I PICKED UP A NAIL IN ONE TIRE, THE WARNING LIGHT NEVER CAME ON EVEN THOUGH THE TIRE PRESSURE DROPPED BY OVER 50%. WHEN THE WARNING LIGHT DOES COME ON, I CHECK ALL TIRES AND THEY ARE ALL FINE - EVERY TIME. AFTER MULTIPLE FRUSTRATING TRIPS TO DEALER, THE BEST THEY COULD DO WAS A SOFTWARE UPDATE. NOW INSTEAD OF FALSE WARNINGS 3 -4 TIMES A MONTH, NOW I GET FALSE WARNINGS 3 - 4 TIMES A YEAR. BUT THE WARNINGS ARE ALWAYS FALSE! LIKE THE LITTLE BOY THAT KEEPS CRYING WOLF, THIS SYSTEM IS COUNTER PRODUCTIVE IN THAT OWNERS WILL BEGIN TO IGNORE THE WARNING SYSTEM ALTOGETHER.

THE DIM LIGHTS ARE NOT EVEN USABLE. I DRIVE WITH THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ON. THE BRIGHTS ARE AS BRIGHT AS THE DIM LIGHTS ON EVERY OTHER CAR I HAVE OWNED. HONDA HAS NO FIX. I HAVE BEEN TRYING SINCE 2014 TO HAVE BETTER LIGHTS INSTALLED. THEY CAN'T EVEN DO THIS AT MY EXPENSE. THIS CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE IN THE DARK.

I WAS PARKING IN A PARKING SPACE BEHIND A PARKED CAR IN FRONT OF MY CAR. I APPLIED THE BRAKES, AND MY CAR LUNGED FORWARD WITH A TREMENDOUS ACCELERATION AND HIT THE PARKED CAR IN FRONT OF ME. AT LEAST, ALMOST $5,000 IN DAMAGE WAS DONE.

RIDE IS ALARMINGLY ROUGH & UNUSUALLY LOUD. SOME BUMPS MADE THE CAR JUMP & VEER FRACTIONALLY. ALL SURFACES OTHER THAN PERFECTLY SMOOTH CAUSE OVERTLY ROUGH RIDE & LOUD ROAD NOISE.

DURING COLD WEATHER, WHEN STARTING THE CAR IN THE MORNING, IT MAKES A WEIRD NOISE, NOT SURE IF IT IS THE TRANSMISSION. ANY TIME I SPEED UP THE CAR FROM 20 PMPH TO 35 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION MAKES A NOISE SIMILAR TO AMBULANCE NOISE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER BECAUSE IT IS UNDER WARRANTY YET AND THEY SAID IT IS NORMAL, I DON'T AGREE WITH THIS, PLEASE INVESTIGATE.

THE CAR VIBRATES HEAVILY WHEN ACCELERATING SLOWLY BETWEEN 20-30MPH.

BURNING RUBBER SMELL FROM BRAKES. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED WAS WHEN THE CAR WAS SIX MONTHS OLD AND AFTER A ROUGH WINTER IN NORTHEAST, DEALER INFORMED THAT SALT AND WATER MAY HAVE WASHED OFF PROTECTIVE BRAKE COATING, LUBRICANT....THIS SAME PROBLEM HAS RECURRED ON AT LEAST ANOTHER THREE OCCASIONS, IN SOME INSTANCES WITH OR WITHOUT HARSH WINTER CONDITIONS. THE FOUL RUBBER BURNING SMELL USUALLY GOES AWAY 10-15 MINUTES AFTER CAR COOLS OFF BUT THE PROBLEM HAS CERTAINLY PERSISTED. I'VE OWNED THREE HONDA CARS PRIOR TO MY '14 CRV AND DEALERS EXPLANATION JUST DOES NOT MAKE SENSE.

OUR 2014 HONDA CRV HAS BEEN MAKING A CLATTERING NOISE AT START UP FOR THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS. APPARENTLY THERE IS A WELL KNOW DEFECT WITH THE VTC ACCURATOR AND YET HONDA HASN'T ALERTED CONSUMERS TO THIS DEFECT OR ISSUED A RECALL. I AM WRITING YOU TO ALERT YOU OR TO ADD TO OTHER COMPLAINTS YOU HAVE RECEIVED REGARDING THIS ISSUE. IF THEY DON'T NOTIFY CONSUMERS, THEN THE WARRANTY PERIOD CAN GO BY AND THEN THE CONSUMER IS LEFT WITH THE BILL. THANK YOU.

TIRE FAILURE - CONTINENTAL CROSS CONTACT LX 225/65/R17 WHILE TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 40MPH WITH MEAN TEMPERATURE OF 74 DEGREES AND MAX OF 84 THE TIRE BLEW OUT WITH NO APPARENT REASON TO DO SO. VERY CLEARLY THERE WERE DISTINCT FLAPS ON THE BACK SIDE OF THE TIRE THAT GAVE IN ADDITION TO THE FRONT SIDE. APPEARED AS IT THE WALL WEAKENED.

ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE IN MY 2014 HONDA CR-V WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK THE MORNING OF JANUARY 19, 2017. I PURCHASED THE CR-V NEW IN EARLY 2015. AT THE TIME OF THE ENGINE FIRE THERE WAS 49,585 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE ONLY WORK EVER COMPLETED ON THE CR-V WERE TIMELY OIL AND FILTER CHANGES, AND TIRE ROTATIONS. THERE WAS NOT ANY SUGGESTED OR REQUIRED WORK THAT WAS NOT COMPLETED. THERE WAS NOTHING UNUSUAL WITH THE CAR, NO NOISES, NO ODORS, AND I WAS THE LAST PERSON TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE PRIOR TO THIS DAY. FORENSICS REPORT CONCLUDED THAT THE FIRE ORIGINATED IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IN AND AROUND THE FUEL SYSTEM. AT 8:50AM ON THURSDAY MORNING JANUARY 19, 2017 I LEFT MY HOME IN NJ TO TRAVEL TO WORK 14 MILES AWAY. IN LEAVING HOME THE CR-V STARTED NORMAL. I WAS ABOUT 10 MINUTES INTO THE TYPICAL 45 MINUTE DRIVE. I WAS DRIVING ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY. I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO ABOUT 10 MPH TO MERGE INTO ONE LANE. I NOTICED LIGHT WHITE SMOKE COMING IN FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE VENT. I THEN NOTICED MORE GRAYISH SMOKE COMING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE HOOD. I PULLED OVER OFF THE HIGHWAY ONTO THE SHOULDER. THERE WAS NOTHING UNUSUAL ON THE PANEL OF THE CAR, NO LIGHTS, NO GAUGES, THE TEMP WAS NORMAL. I CALLED 911 AT ABOUT 9:01AM. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT HAD THE FIRE OUT IN ABOUT 12 MINUTES. THE CR-V OF COURSE WAS A COMPLETE LOSS.

AIRBAG NOT BLEW OUT DURING ACCENT SEAT BELT BROKE

"RUN AWAY ENGINE" THERE HAVE BEEN 5-6 OCCURRENCES WITHIN THE LAST 2 YEARS THAT ARE UNEXPLAINABLE. INFREQUENTLY WHILE TRYING TO STOP EITHER IN TRAFFIC OR FOR PEDESTRIANS THE ENGINE SUDDENLY REVS TO APPROX. 2200 RPM WHILE I'M ON THE BRAKE. ON 3/5/17 I WAS WITH A EXFORD ENGINEER WHO WITNESSED IT HAPPEN IN TRAFFIC. WHEN I PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK TO TRY AND STOP THE CRV, THE ENGINE REVVED WAY UP BEFORE IT SNAPPED AND WENT BACK INTO A NORMAL DRIVE SITUATION AND WENT DOWN TO NORMAL RPM. IT NOW HAS BEEN REPORTED TO HONDA 3X AND BACK TO A DEALER TWICE. I WILL NOW CALL HONDA AGAIN BUT THIS IS GETTING MORE DANGEROUS EACH TIME. IT HAS HAPPENED IN CA AND AZ BUT WHILE REOCCURRING, IT'S NOT A REGULAR ITEM. IT APPEARS IN THE SOFTWARE OR ENGINE COMPUTER TO HIM.

SAFECAR.GOV 2-20-17 I KEEP HEARING A SOUND WHEN I START MY VEHICLE IN THE MORNING. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS AFTER WORK WHEN I START THE CAR TO GO HOME. THIS PROBLEM STARTED IN DECEMBER 2016 AFTER MY VEHICLE REACHED APPROX 12,000 MILES. IT'S LIKE A GRINDING SOUND AND IS ONLY ON FOR A FEW SECONDS. MY LOCAL DEALER SAID IT IS NORMAL WITH HONDA. THAT DIDN'T SOUND RIGHT TO ME. IN ADDITION, AFTER MY TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON WHEN I'M DRIVING APPROX 25 MILES ON THE EXPRESSWAY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON SINCE MY VEHICLE HI CHECK UP, 12,170 MILES. THEN MY BATTERY DIED AT 13,129 MILES A MONTH AND A HALF AFTER MY MY MULTI-POINT INSPECTION, TIRE ROTATION, AND OIL CHANGE. THE AAA ROAD SIDE REPRESENTATIVE SAID I HAD BAD CELLS. TODAY, I READ ONLINE CONSUMER REPORTS OF GRINDING NOISE COMPLAINTS FROM OTHERS WHO DRIVE A 2014 HONDA CR-V. I CALLED THE HONDA CORPORATE OFFICE WHO DENIED HEARING THE GRINDING NOISE COMPLAINTS. THEY DID GIVE ME A CASE NUMBER REGARDING MY PREMATURE BATTERY FAILURE. THE CORPORATE REP DID REFER ME TO YOUR SITE STATING THERE ARE NO RECALLS ON MY VEHICLE. I AM REPORTING THIS ISSUES AS I THINK IT IS STRANGE THAT ALL OF A SUDDEN AT AROUND 12,000 I'VE SUDDENLY HAD THESE WEIRD ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE. COULD THESE ISSUES BE CONNECTED BY AN ELECTRICAL SHORT? IS THE LIGHT GOING ON FROM A SHORT? IS THE BATTERY GOING DEAD FROM A SHORT? IS THE GRINDING CONNECTED TO A SHORT? I'M FRUSTRATED BECAUSE, I CAN'T KEEP TAKING TIME OFF FROM WORK TO DEAL WITH VEHICLE PROBLEMS. I'VE ATTACHED 2 RECEIPT DOCUMENTS AND I CAN EMAIL A RECORDING OF ME STARTING MY VEHICLE. ALSO, HERE IS A LINK TO A 2014 CRV OWNER'S PUBLIC POSTED VIDEO ABOUT THE SAME NOISE: HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/0O_P8BJPWEQ ALSO HERE IS A LINK TO OTHER ONLINE PUBLIC POSTS: HTTP://HONDA-TECH.COM/FORUMS/HONDA-ELEMENT-CR-V-156/2014-CR-V-GRINDING-NOISE-START-UP-3228595/ I HOME YOU CAN HELP GET SOME ANSWERS TO MY PROBLEM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ROTORS RUSTED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO WETNESS AND HIGH HUMIDITY. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE ROTORS NEEDED TO BE GROUNDED. THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 24,500.

DRIVING ABOUT 10 MPH, I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL QUICKLY TO ENTER A PARKING PLACE WHEN THE POWER STEERING TURNED OFF. I WAS ABLE TO PARK AND TURNED OFF THE ENGINE. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, THE POWER STEERING CAME BACK ON. I TRIED TO DUPLICATE THIS EVENT BUT IT DID NOT OCCUR AGAIN. I REPORTED THIS TO MY DEALER BUT THEY SAID THEY DID NOT HAVE ANY INFORMATION ON THIS.

NO MATTER HOW I SHIFT THE HEADLIGHTS OF MY CR-V, THEY ARE EITHER TOO HIGH OR TOO LOW IN VISIBILITY. I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS POSSIBLE TO FIND A HAPPY MEDIUM WHERE THE LOW BEAMS ARE JUST LOW ENOUGH TO THE ROAD AND CREATE A NICE FIELD OF VISION, ALONG WITH THE HIGH BEAMS BEING LOW ENOUGH TO SEE FAR AND NOT UP IN THE TREES. WHY DOES THIS CAR NOT HAVE TWO DIFFERENT BULBS FOR LOW AND HIGH BEAMS? THE LIGHTING IS UNRELIABLE AND I FEEL VERY UNSAFE AT NIGHT WHEN I AM DRIVING, ESPEICALLY ALONG ROADS THAT ARE NOT WELL-LIT.

LIGHT COME ON SEAT BEAT

TPMS LIGHT COMES ON EVERY TIME I DRIVE OVER 60 MPH FOR MORE THAN A FEW MILES. THE BUMPIER THE ROAD, THE SOONER THE LIGHT COMES ON. ALL AIR PRESSURES ARE CORRECT PER MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDATIONS.

STARTER DOES NOT FULLY DISENGAGE AFTER STARTING ,ESPECIALLY ON COLD MORNINGS.I FEEL THIS WILL DAMAGE THE FLYWHEEL. GRINDING NOISE! NOTE ; VECHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT TIME.

TAKATA RECALL - AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY - I WAS TRAVELING WEST ON THE US 60 FREEWAY IN MESA, ARIZONA AND WAS DRIVING IN THE RIGHT LANE OF A 4 LANE FREEWAY, TRAVELING 65 MPH. A CAR DRIVEN BY A YOUNG LADY, REALIZED THAT SHE MISSED HER EXIT AND CAME FROM THE CAR POOL LANE, ON THE FAR LEFT SIDE TO TRY AND GET OFF ON AN EXIT CALLED DOBSON ROAD. ACCORDING TO THE WITNESS STATEMENTS SHE HAD TO SPEED UP TO PASS EVERYONE TO TRY AND GET OFF ON THE EXIT SHE WAS GOING TO MISS. AS SHE CUT ACROSS, I JUST HAPPENED TO BE DRIVING PAST THAT EXIT AND WHILE SHE WAS GOING 75 TO 85 MPH, SHE HIT ME ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR. AT THE LAST SECOND, I NOTICED SOMETHING OUT OF THE CORNER OF MY LEFT EYE AND TURNED MY HEAD AND THAT IS WHEN SHE HIT ME. THE NEXT THING I REMEMBER IS TRYING TO GET OUT OF MY CAR, BUT I COULDN'T BECAUSE THE DOOR WAS SMASHED IN, RIGHT WHERE THE HINGES ARE. SHE HIT ME IN A STRONG PART OF THE DOOR. EVIDENTLY, AFTER SHE HIT ME HER CAR PUSHED ME INTO THE WALL OF THE ON RAMP. I DON'T REALLY REMEMBER WHAT HAPPENED BETWEEN THE TIME I TURNED MY HEAD, UNTIL THE TIME I WAS TRYING TO GET OUT, TO NO AVAIL. THE SIDE AIRBAG AND THE FRONT AIRBAG NEVER WENT OFF. THE AIRBAG ON THE PASSENGER SIDE, THE SIDE THAT HIT THE WALL, DID GO OFF. I AM LUCKY THAT THE CAR DID NOT ROLL OVER, BUT I THINK IT WAS THE WALL THAT PREVENT THAT, BECAUSE THE WHEELS ON THE PASSENGER SIDE WERE AT A 90 DEGREE ANGLE FROM SLIDING SIDEWAYS. I SUFFERED WHIPLASH, OF COURSE AND MY NECK AND BACK ARE STILL NOT RIGHT. I HAD TO GET STEROID SHOTS IN MY BACK TO BE ABLE TO GO TO WORK BECAUSE I STARTED A NEW JOB. I HAD A CONCUSSION AND STILL GET HEADACHES, AND I TORE MY LEFT ACL, WHICH HAS BEEN REPLACED AND NOW THE ONLY WAY TO REPAIR IT IS TO HAVE A KNEE REPLACEMENT. I AM STILL NOT OKAY AND I KNOW THAT A BIG REASON FOR MY SEVERE INJURIES DUE TO AIRBAGS NOT DEPLOYING. ACCIDENT OCCURRED ON 10/7/16 AND I'M STILL SUFFERING. *TR

THE VEHICLE SHUDDERS WHEN SLOWLY ACCELERATING FROM 20 MPH TO 30 MPH WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON LEVEL GROUND.THE CAR VIBRATES BADLY. HAPPENS IN COLD WEATHER AND HOT. DOES NOT VIBRATE ABOVE 30+ MPH.

WHEN I MAKE A SHARP TURN USUALLY TO THE LEFT, THE CAR DOESN'T GO WHEN I ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO BACK OFF OF THE GAS PEDAL THEN ACCELERATE AGAIN, WHICH CAUSES AN UNSAFE SITUATION. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY SAY THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM EVEN THOUGH IT HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WITH ME. THE CAR IS STATIONARY WHEN I WANT TO ACCELERATE LIKE AT A LIGHT WHERE I AM TURNING LEFT.

ENGINE EMITS RATTLE/GRINDING SOUND FOR 1-3 SECONDS ON COLD START IN COLD WEATHER. ## VIN PASSED ## HONDA CRV 2014 ## *TR

THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING NOISE LASTING APPROXIMATELY 2 SECONDS AT COLD STARTUP. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 6 TIMES IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS. MY VEHICLE HAS ONLY 22700 MILES. I'M CONCERNED THIS IS CAUSING DAMAGE TO THE ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE IDLING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE ALSO SURGED WHILE IDLING AND THE RPMS FLUCTUATED. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS MODULE CAUSED THE FAILURE. DUE TO THE ABS MODULE FAILURE, THE TRANSMISSION MODULE SOFTWARE COULD NOT BE UPDATED TO PREVENT THE SURGE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IDLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,790.

THIS IS AN ENTERMENTENT ISSUE. THE STARTER MOYER GRINDS AFTER THE ENGINE HAS STARTED. THE TPMS LIGHT COMES ON INTERMENTENLY EVEN IF THE TIRES ARE AT THE PROPER INFLATION PRESSURE. HOPE HONDA DOES SOMETHING ABOUT THESE ISSUES.

GRINDING NOISE UPON CAR STARTING. UPON STARTING THE CAR THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE THAT LAST APPROXIMATELY 1-1.5 SECONDS. I FIRST NOTICED THIS SOUND ABOUT A MONTH AFTER PURCHASING THE CAR. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NORMAL AND THAT THEY HEAR THIS COMPLAINT OFTEN. THEY SAID THAT HONDA WAS AWARE, BUT THAT THEY HAVE NOT PLACED A RECALL ON IT. I ACCEPTED THAT THEY WERE GIVING ME ACCURATE INFORMATION AND FIGURED I WOULD GET A RECALL ON IT EVENTUALLY. RECENTLY, THE CAR CONTINUES TO MAKE THE GRINDING NOISE, BUT ALSO ACTS AS IF IT DOESN'T WANT TO START ON COLD MORNINGS. MAKES THIS GRINDING NOISE APPROXIMATELY 75% OF ALL STARTS OF THE CAR SINCE PURCHASING IT. I HAVE HAD THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR, AND STARTER CHECKED. WAS TOLD THAT THEY DO NOT SHOW ANY PROBLEMS.

THE PASSENGER DOOR WILL NO OPEN FROM THE OUTSIDE OR INSIDE WHEN THE DOOR IS UNLOCKED. BEING PARKED AT HOME, I WENT TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE AND WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. DEALERSHIP SAYS THE DOOR ACTUATOR IS OUT AND THEY SEE THIS ON HONDA'S VERY FREQUENTLY. I CONSIDER THIS A MAJOR SAFETY FEATURE AND FEEL IT SHOULD HAVE ALREADY BEEN RECALLED IF IT HAS BEEN KNOWN. APPARENTLY THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON FOR HONDA'S AND THEY HAVE HAD A RECALL ON THIS IN PRIOR YEAR MODELS.

MY 2014 HONDA CRV IS EXPERIENCING SOME GRINDING NOISE UPON START UP IN THE MORNING OR WHENEVER IT IS COLD OUTSIDE. THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS PARKED. THEN AFTER A FEW SECONDS IT GOES AWAY. IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVERY SINCE I PURCHASED IT IN 2014. TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT IT IS KNOWN ISSUE AND HONDA IS WORKING ON IT. IT HAS BEEN TWO YEARS NOW AND NOTHING HAS HAPPENED. I'VE HEARD THAT IT COULD THE VTC ACTUATOR. DEALER HAS TO CHECK IT ONCE AGAIN. SO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED OR RESOLVED PROPERLY. I'M AFRAID IF I KEEP DRIVING IT WITH THIS HONDA KNOWN PROBLEM SOMETHING SERIOUSLY COULD GO WRONG WITH THE ENGINE.

FAULTY TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS). THIS SENSOR GIVES FAULTY READING EVEN WHEN TIRES ARE CHECKED AT A MILITARY BASE AUTO SHOP AND LOCAL DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP. WAS SHOWN HOW TO REMOVE SENSOR LIGHT BY CUSTOMER SERVER AT DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP. THE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING HIGHWAY MILES. LEFT SENSOR LIGHT ON SO DEALERSHIP WOULD SEE IT BUT HE WOULD NOT CHANGE IT AS IT WAS NOT ON A RECALL. I WAS TOLD THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS CONCERNING THE SAME PROBLEM BY OWNERS OF 2014 HONDA CR-V EVERYWHERE AND HONDA IS NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM. PLEASE GET THEM TO FIX THE PROBLEM BEFORE A TIRE DOES LOSS PRESSURE AND THERE IS AN ACCIDENT. *TR

ENGINE RATTLE AT COLD START IN COLD WEATHER VIDEO OF MY ISSUE: HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/0O_P8BJPWEQ

FIRST DRIVE OF THE DAY THE TRANSMISSION IS RAGGED. EARLIER 2014 CRV HAD RECALL. MINE DID NOT. I HAD SOFTWARE UPDATED AND TRANSMISSION FLUID CHANGED AS RECOMMENDED FOR EARLIER VERSIONS. PROBLEM WENT AWAY. HONDA SHOULD RECALL THE LATER 2014'S AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS IN RAINY WEATHER, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO OPERATE ON THE LOW OR INTERMITTENT SETTINGS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND THE DEALER, BUT THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED OR DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000.

FAULTY TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR SYSTEM (TPMS). THIS SENSOR GIVES FAULTY READING EVEN THERE IS NO DIFFERENTIAL PRESSURE ON ALL FOUR TIRES. THE TPMS LIGHT COMES WHILE THE CAR IS RUNNING AND AFTER IT TRAVELS LONGER THAN 50 MI ON A HIGHWAY. I BROUGHT THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS PROBLEM AT LEAST 5 TIMES AND THE PROBLEM HAD NOT BE RESOLVED. THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS CONCERNING THE SAME PROBLEM BY OWNERS OF 2014 HONDA CR-V ACROSS THE COUNTRY. HONDA IS NOT FIXING THE PROBLEM AND PLEASE FORCE THEM TO RECALL THE CAR AND FIX THE PROBLEM FOR GOOD.

OUT OF THE BLUE, MY HONDA CR-V 2014 WON'T START, I HAVE TO JUMP IT, AND WENT TO THE AUTO PARTS STORE, GOT MY BATTERY CHECK OUT AND EVERYTHING LEVEL OF THE BATTERY CAME BACK NORMAL. LUCKY ME, IT WAS HAPPENED ON THE WEEKEND AND I HAD SOMEONE WHO HAPPENED TO BE AROUND AND HELP ME. I WAS SO AFRAID THAT IT COULD HAPPENED TO ME ANY TIME, SO I DECIDED TO BUY A NEW BATTERY. MAYBE THE CASHIER THINKING I HAD ENOUGH MONEY TO WASTE AND NOT WORRY ABOUT BURNING MY MONEY FOR UNNECESSARY THINGS. I PAID: $144.93 (TAX INCLUDED) I DON'T THINK THIS IS ACCEPTABLE FOR A 2 YEARS OLD CAR AND BATTERY TEST CAME OUT NORMAL, NOT WEAK. HOPE THIS IS NOT A MAJOR THING, BUT WHO KNOWS.

EVERY 14-15 DAYS, I AM HAVING TO GET A JUMP BECAUSE THE CAR WOULD NOT START. I HAD THE BATTERY CHECKED AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS NOT PROBLEM WITH THE BATTERY. WHEN DRIVING THE CAR, THE CAR "SHUDDERS" WHEN APPROACHING 20 MPH AND 40MPH.

THE LIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE ARE NOT GOOD. VERY HARD TO SEE WITH AT NIGHT USING DIMS AND THE BRIGHT LIGHTS ARE ABSOLUTELY WORTHLESS. DON'T THINK THAT IT IS AN ADJUSTMENT OR ALIGNMENT PROBLEM, THINK IT IS A ENGINEERING PROBLEM IN THE DESIGN FOR THE WHOLE LIGHTING HOUSING AND USE OF BULBS. SOMETHING REALLY NEEDS TO BE DONE TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE! MY OLDER 2003 CR-V WITH HAZED OVER COVERS DID A BETTER JOB THAN THIS NEWER VEHICLE BY 11 YEARS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE COMPUTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 11,265. UPDATED 12/13/16*LJ *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TPMS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TIRES WERE CHECKED AND THE TPMS WARNING INDICATOR WAS DISABLED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

TIRE PRESSURE INDICATOR LIGHT : THE TIRE INDICATOR LIGHT REMAINS ON WEATHER THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED OR MOVING. THIS HAS BEEN RESET USING THE MANUAL, BY A TIRE CENTER AND ALSO BY A HONDA DEALER. AFTER THE HONDA SERVICE THE LIGHT REMAINED OFF FOR I DAY. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE BUT I WAS NOT NOTIFIED AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL. I HAVE BEEN TOLD TO IGNORE IT ...REALLY THAT IS THE ANSWER!

TAKATA RECALL: I CONTACTED SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS IN SAN MARCOS AND SAN ANTONIO IN MARCH 2016. I WAS TOLD THEN, THERE WERE NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX THE RECALL AND NO LOANER CARS AVAILABLE FOR THOSE EFFECTED. WE WERE TOLD PARTS WOULD BE AVAILABLE EARLY SUMMER. NOW WE RECEIVE A LETTER THAT SAYS PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL THE FALL. I AM A WORKING MOTHER OF TWO WITH NO OTHER VEHICLES TO DRIVE. SO MY CHILDREN AND I ARE FORCED TO DRIVE AROUND IN THIS DEATH TRAP, WITH NO END IN SIGHT. THE ANXIETY IS CAUSES US IS GREAT AND WE HAVE LIMITED OUR TRAVELS THIS SUMMER, DUE TO FEARS OF SOMETHING HAPPENING. THIS IS NOT RIGHT!!! WE NEED A LOANER VEHICLE, SO THAT MY FAMILY CAN BE SAFE UNTIL PARTS ARE MADE AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL. TIRE INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON AT 9:25 AM. NONE OF THE TIRES WERE UNDER INFLATED. AFTER CHECKING THE TIRES I RESET THE DEVICE. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS IS HAPPENED AND IT OCCURRED A FEW DAYS AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED INCLUDING ROTATING THE TIRES. I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE DRIVING 70 MPH ON A CLOUDY DAY WITH TEMPERATURE AT 73

TPNS LIGHT IS ON PERMANENTLY EVEN THOUGH TIRES ARE INFLATED CORRECTLY NO WAY OF KNOWING WHEN TYRES NEED INFLATING LIGHT ON WILL NOT ALLOW EMISSIONS TEST TO BE COMPLETED IN MA UNLESS ITS FIXED PASSENGER AIR BAG STAYS ON FOR LONG PERIODS OF TIME ALSO IT MAKES A NOISE WHEN STARTED IN THE MORNING OR WHEN IDLE FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS AIR CONDITIONER IS NOT WORKING RIGHT.

IN MOTION AND STATIONARY THE TIRE INFLATION LIGHT REMAINS ON UNLESS RESET. TIRE PRESSURE ON ALL TIRES IS THE SAME. THIS HAPPENED ONCE TWO WEEKS AGO. DEALERSHIP TOLD ME IT WAS PROBABLY DUE TO TEMPERATURE CHANGE.

WE BOUGHT THE CAR IN AUGUST 2014. WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF PURCHASING THE VEHICLE, THE LIGHT INDICATING THAT THE TIRES NEEDED AIR TURNED ON. WE HAD THE WHEELS INFLATED AND THE LIGHT STILL REMAINED ON. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID SOMETHING TO MAKE THE LIGHT INDICATING THE TIRES NEEDED TO BE INFLATED TURN OFF. IN ABOUT TWO MONTHS AFTER THAT, THE LIGHT TURNED ON AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND WHEN WE TURNED ON THE IGNITION, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS TIME WE HAVE IGNORED IT. SINCE WE DO NOT HAVE TIME TO BE TAKING IT INTO THE DEALER, IT REMAINS ON WHENEVER WE DRIVE THE VEHICLE. IT IS ANNOYING AND CAN BE DANGEROUS.

SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE (NEW) IT MAKES PERIODIC ELECTRICAL SHORTING NOISES WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE (TURNING THE IGNITION KEY). THERE IS OBVIOUSLY AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM WITH THE IGNITION SWITCH. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS STARTED, BUT MANY TIMES. OUR FAMILY IS AFRAID THE VEHICLE IS EVENTUALLY GOING TO SHOCK OUR HANDS - THE VEHICLE NOW HAS ABOUT 15K MILES ON IT BUT IT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE VEHICLE CAME FROM THE DEALERSHIP.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN DESIGNATED BY DEALER TO REPLACE DEFECTIVE TAKATA AIR BAGS BUT THEY ARE UNABLE TO PROVIDE ANY ESTIMATE AS TO WHEN REPLACEMENT AIR BAGS WILL BECOME AVALIABLE. DO YOU HAVE ANY EXPERIENCE AS TO TYPICAL WAIT TIMES FOR SUCH REPLACEMENT?

REAR BRAKE PADS AND ROTORS ARE WORN COMPLETELY WITH ROTORS SHOWING DEEP GROOVES. FRONT BRAKES, ON THE CONTRARY, APPEAR TO BE ALMOST NEW - THICK PADS AND SMOOTH ROTORS. THE CAR'S MILEAGE IS 17,412

BRAKES DON'T DISENGAGE NORMALLY : AFTER RELEASING BRAKE PEDAL, THE CAR IS STILL BRAKES FOR SEVERAL SECONDS AND, THEREFORE, SLOWING DOWN.

VEHICLE JERKS WHILE SHIFTING THE GEAR LEVER FROM PARKING INTO ANY GEAR WITH BRAKES APPLIED. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.

VEHICLE JERKS AT GEAR CHANGE WHILE DRIVING. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION.

STARTER STICKS AND DOESN'T DISENGAGE FOR A FEW SECONDS AFTER ENGINE TURNS AND STARTS. AS A RESULT, STARTER SOLENOID GEAR GRINDS AGAINST FLYWHEEL TEETH, CAUSING DAMAGES TO THE TEETH OF SOLENOID AND/OR FLYWHEEL. THIS MECHANICAL FAULT OCCURS EVERY TIME AFTER A VEHICLE IS PARKED FOR A DAY OR MORE. WEATHER (COLD OR HOT) DOESN'T AFFECT THE DEFECT.

INTERMITTENT CLICKING SOUND EMITS UNDER EITHER FRONT PASSENGER SEAT OR UNDER CENTER FRONT ARMREST WHILE DRIVING. THE CLICKING SOUNDS DURATION IS ABOUT 2-3 SECONDS WITH INTERMISSION OF SEVERAL SECONDS. THE SOUNDS REPEAT AFTER CHECKING PROPER SEAT'S ENGAGEMENT AND EMPTYING CENTER ARMREST COMPARTMENT OF ANY OBJECTS.

IS MY CAR BEING RECALLED FOR AIRBAGS?

ON A FLORIDA HWY AT ABOUT 60 MPH A SMALL TRUCK TRAVELING ON LANE TO RIGHT OF ME FOR NO OBVIOUS REASON ENTERED MY LANE. BY INSTINCT I YANKED THE STEERING TO THE LEFT ONLY TO REALIZE IMMEDIATELY THAT A VEHICLE AT THAT MOMENT WAS PASSING ME ON THE LEFT. AT THAT MOMENT THE SMALL TRUCK ON MY RIGHT REALIZED THAT HE WAS ENTERING MY LANE.AND RETURNED TO HIS LANE. AT THAT POINT I HAD MADE A QUICK MANEUVER TO THE LEFT AND THEN TO THE RIGHT THEN LOST CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE AS IT MOVED IN AN UNCONTROLLED MANNER A FEW TIMES TO BOTH SIDES.I REGAINED CONTROL ONLY AFTER PRESSING HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL. A MIRACLE THAT I DID NOT HIT ANY ONE.I AM A RETIRED LONG DISTANCE BUS DRIVER.(OVER 50 YEARS) WITH AN ENVIABLE RECORD OF NO ACCIDENTS..

MY CR-V IS 18 MONTHS OLD AND SINCE LAST DEC. HAS THE GRINDING SOUND WHEN FIRST STARTED. THE TIRE PRESSURE SIGNAL LIGHTS UP ON OCCASION BUT WHEN TIRE PRESSURE IS CHECKED NO TIRE IS LOW. TOOK CAR TO DEALER AND THEY SAID IT COULD BE FIXED WHILE UNDER WARRANTY. HOPE SO, BUT AFTER SEEING OTHER COMPLAINTS NOT SO SURE. BOUGHT THIS CAR BASED ON FRIENDS RECOMMENDATIONS AND HONDA'S REPUTATION. WISH I HAD KNOWN ABOUT THIS WEBSITE PRIOR TO PURCHASE!

THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED A SIGNIFICANT FUEL LINE LEAK. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO DEALER THEY ADVISED AN ANIMAL HAD CHEWED THROUGH THE FUEL LINE. THEY SEE THIS ISSUE REPEATEDLY. HONDA HAS COATED THE FUEL LINES WITH A SOY-BASED INSULATOR THAT ATTRACTS ANIMALS. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM.

WE HAVE 4 INSTANCES WHERE WE HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO START THE CRV BECAUSE OF A LOW BATTERY PROBLEM. THIS NECESSITATED USING A JUMP STARTER TO START THE CAR. I HAVE MEASURED THE VOLTAGE WITH A MULTI METER AND AFTER DRIVING FOR A WHILE THE VOLTAGE WILL BE ABOUT 12.4 VOLTS AND THE NEXT MORNING IT WILL BE ABOUT 11.8. MY LOAD TESTER INDICATED A WEAK RATING. SO OBVIOUSLY IT APPEARED TO ME THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. BOUGHT THE CAR TO HONDA SUBARU OF SANTA FE IN NM ON 4/20/16 AND DEALT WITH JAMES THE SERVICE MANAGER. HE SAID THAT THEY PERFORMED A SOFTWARE UPDATE TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE BATTERY OPERATED WITHIN SPECS. UPON ARRIVING HOME, 100 MILES AWAY, THE SAME SUB STANDARD CONDITION REOCCURRED. CONTACTING JAMES WITH MY SITUATION, JAMES SAID THAT BECAUSE THE BATTERY WAS WITHIN SPECS HE WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLACE THE BATTERY. MAYBE 12.4 VOLTS IS ACCEPTABLE BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN CAUSING A SURFACE CHARGE BUT IF IT DROPS TO 11.8 OVERNIGHT SOMETHING IS ASKEW. IF THEY HAD PERFORMED A LOAD TEST THAT PROBLEM WOULD HAVE BEEN EVIDENT. WE NOW CARRY A JUMP STARTER WITH US BUT MY WIFE IS NOT ABLE TO USE IT WHICH I CONSIDER A SAFETY PROBLEM. JUDGING FROM ALL OF THE PROBLEMS ON THIS SITE, HONDA SHOULD BE MUCH MORE RESPONSIVE TO THE SAFETY AND PERFORMANCE NEEDS OF ITS CUSTOMERS. AFTER READING THESE POSTS, MOST POTENTIAL BUYERS OF HONDA PRODUCTS WOULD HAVE SERIOUS RESERVATIONS. WE TRAVEL FULL TIME IN A MOTORHOME AND WILL NEED TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM ADDRESSED AT ANOTHER DEALERSHIP.

MY BRAND NEW HONDA CRV 2014 HAVE PROBLEMS WITH SUSPENSIONS. MY CONCERNS ARE MY SUSPENSION ARE NOT RELIABLE AND COULD CAUSED INJURY OR DEATHS 4 PICTURES ARE INCLUDED IN MY REPORT.

THIS CAR ONLY HAS ONE ADJUSTMENT FOR BOTH THE HIGH AND LOW HEADLIGHTS. CURRENTLY THE LOW BEAMS ARE ADEQUATE WHEN USING FACTORY SETTING. WHEN HIGH BEAMS ARE SELECTED, THE NEAR VISION OF THE ROAD IS LOST AND THE HIGH BEAMS SHINE TOO HIGH. IF ADJUSTMENT IS MADE TO LOWER THE HIGH BEAM SO THAT IT PROVIDES DISTANCE VISION AND ROAD VISION THEN IT LOWERS THE LOW BEAM VISION OF THE ROAD TO A FEW FEET IN FRONT OF THE CAR. BOTH CONDITIONS ARE A SAFETY ISSUE FOR ME. ONLY AN UNACCEPTABLE COMPROMISE OF THE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT MUST BE MADE TO HAVE SOME USE OF BOTH HIGH AND LOW BEAMS. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE LIGHTS WERE WITHIN SPECS AFTER SHINNING THE LIGHTS ON TO THE GARAGE DOOR WITH IT CLOSED. NOT VERY SCIENTIFIC METHOD FOR ADJUSTING THE LIGHT SETTINGS AND LEAVES A LOT OF ROOM FOR ERROR. MY ONLY CHOICE IS TO DRIVE WITH BOTH SETTINGS BEING A COMPROMISE. ALL THE CARS I HAVE OWNED FOR THE PAST 55 YEARS HAVE HAD ADJUSTMENTS FOR BOTH. I CAN ONLY ASSUME HONDA FELT IT AN ACCEPTABLE SAFETY RISK AND MONEY SAVER FOR THEM FOR DRIVERS TO ONLY HAVE ONE ADJUSTMENT FOR THE HEADLIGHTS. I AM ATTACHING THE SERVICE REPORT FROM TODAYS VISIT TO MY DEALER.

BOUGHT 2014 HONDA CRV THE ENGINE START MAKING THE GRINDING NOISE ON START UP IN COLD WEATHER. BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THAT IT IS KNOW ISSUE AND HONDA IS WORKING ON IT. FUNNY THING IS I KNOW OTHER PEOPLE WHO OWN THE SAME MODEL OF CRVS AND THEY HAVE NO ENGINE GRIND ON START UP. THIS IS COMMON IN 2012-12014 AND THEY HAVE NOT HAD ANY ISSUES. FROM WHAT I READ IT SOUNDS LIKE HONDA HAS BEEN WORKING ON THIS ISSUE SINCE THE 2012 MODEL, AND IT'S NOW 2016. II'M PRETTY SURE I WILL TRADE IN MY CRV FOR A SOMETHING ELSE THAN A HONDA.

THE CAR ENGINE CRANKS UP LIKE ITS ALREADY ENGAGED EVEN AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT OR FOR A LONG PERIOD OF TIME. I TOLD THE CAR DEALER ABOUT IT AND HE SAID THE MANUFACTURING KNOWS, BUT WAS EARLY LAST YEAR. IT'S HAPPENING MORE OFTEN NOW. THE VEHICLE IS ALWAYS PARKED, EITHER AT HOME OR WORK ON A FLAT SURFACE. ( PARKING LOT OR DRIVEWAY)

GRINDING NOISE LASTING A FEW SECONDS DURING IGNITION START UP AFTER CAR HAS BEEN SITTING OVERNIGHT. BEGAN WHEN CAR WAS 6 MONTHS OLD. HAPPENS ALMOST DAILY WHEN TEMPS ARE BELOW 60

HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE GRINDING NOISE WHEN STARTED SOMETIMES. ALSO HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW RUBBING AT TIMES WHEN IT IS RAISED OR LOWERED. WISH THE HOOD RELEASE WAS BETTER LOCATED AND MARKED.

GRINDING/SQEEKING ENGINE NOISE DURING INITIAL STARTUP ON MOSTLY COLD DAYS.

THE CAR ENGINE WILL GRIND WHEN STARTING FOR THE FIRST TIME ON A COLD DAY. IT DOES THEN START BUT IN THE PAST 12 MONTHS ON THREE OCCASIONS IT FAILED TO START AT ALL. THE LAST TIME BEING APRIL 1, 2016. TOOK IT TO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE BATTERY IS FINE AND COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, BUT IT STILL GRINDS AT START UP. THE BEST DESCRIPTION IS TWO PIECES OF METAL GRINDING TOGETHER. LOT OF HONDA OWNERS ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM IN PARTICULAR ON THE WEB SITE BELOW: HTTP://WWW.CRVOWNERSCLUB.COM/FORUMS/13-DEAR-HONDA-FEEDBACK-FORUM/36273-2-4L-ENGINE-NOISE-COLD-START-UP-CRV-ACCORD.HTML

ON COLD MORNINGS, THE CAR STARTS WITH A GRINDING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE FOR ABOUT A SECOND OR TWO.

DRIVING CLEAR WEATHER, VERY GOOD STREET CONDITION, GOING 50 MILES PER HOUR PULLED TO ALMOST A FULL STOP FOR A LIGHT SIGNAL AND THEN HEARD A LOUD POPPING NOISE. MOVED FORWARD AND FELT TIRE WAS FLAT. PILLED OVER AND OBSERVED THE SIDE OF THE TIRE BLEW OUT. 2014, HONDA CRV PURCHASED BRAND NEW. MILES ON THE VEHICLES 13,485. NO WEAR ON ALL TIRES VISIBLE. TIRE JUST BLEW UP AND APPEARS LIKE A DEFECT SINCE THERE WAS NO TIRE DAMAGE. TIRE PRESSURE WAS AT PROPER PSI.

OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS. ON STARTING WHEN COLD, A SLIGHT GRINDING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE. WHEN WILL HONDA EITHER FIX OR COMPENSATE OWNERS?

I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN MARCH. SINCE DECEMBER, THERE ARE SOME MORNINGS, WHEN I START THE CAR, THE ENGINE AREA EMITS A GRINDING SOUND THAT LASTS FOR FOR A FEW SECONDS. THE DEALER THINKS IT'S THE VTC ACTUATOR, A PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE MADE AN ABNORMAL GRINDING NOISE DURING COLD WEATHER. IN ADDITION, THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT COULD NOT BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 17,000.

SOME MORNINGS WHEN STARTING THE CAR, THERE IS A GRINDING FROM UNDER THE FRONT OF THE CAR THAT LASTS A SECOND OR TWO. IT BEGAN HAPPENING THIS WINTER AT AROUND MILEAGE19K. I CALLED THE HONDA SERVICE MANAGER, HE KNOWS OF THE PROBLEM AND THAT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM A DEFECTIVE VTC ACTUATOR. HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT HONDA IS CONTINUING TO PRODUCE THE SAME DEFECTIVE ACTUATOR THEY HAVE PRODUCED FOR THE PAST 8/9 YEARS AND THAT THE HONDA CORPORATION WILL NOT ALLOW DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENTS TO REPLACE THEM. I AM CONCERNED AT SOME POINT ENGINE PARTS ARE BEING DAMAGED. I THINKING HONDA IS IGNORING THIS PROBLEM.

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON EVEN THOUGH THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRES IS AT THE RECOMMENDED PRESSURE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY, MANY TIMES. FIRST TIME I HAD THE CAR ONLY TWO DAYS. THE DEALER "RECALIBRATED" THE SYSTEM. THAT STILL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY ADMITTED THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM.

MY CAR WAS ON A FREEWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH DRIVING IN ECONOMY MODE. I WAS ON MY BLUETOOTH AND I HAD NOT CHANGED LANES. SOMETIME DURING THIS 2 MINUTE PHONE CALL I HAD ACCELERATED AS I HAD TRAFFIC ENTERING FROM MY RIGHT AND FELT THE CAR SHIFT INTO A HIGHER GEAR. I ENDED MY PHONE CALL ABRUPTLY AS MY CAR WAS ACTING UP AND NOT RUNNING SMOOTHLY. IT MAY HAVE BEEN HESITATING. I REALIZED MY CAR JUST KEPT ACCELERATING AND OUT OF MY CONTROL. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE AND IT WOULD SLOW THE CAR, BUT IT DIDN'T SLOW THE ENGINE MOTOR. I WOULD ALTERNATE PUTTING MY FOOT ON THE BREAK AND TAPPING THE ACCELERATOR AND BACK TO BRAKE PEDAL AGAIN. THERE WAS NO GIVE ON THE ACCELERATOR--LIKE IT WAS STUCK TO THE FLOOR. AFTER ABOUT 3 OR 4 OF THESE ATTEMPTS TO GAIN CONTROL, I HAD CONTROL OF THE ACCELERATOR AGAIN AND EXITED AT THE NEXT EXIT. WHEN THE CAR WAS STILL MOVING AND I WAS OFF THE FREEWAY, I REACHED DOWN TO MAKE SURE MY FLOOR MAT WAS IN PLACE AND IT WAS. I THEN DROVE IT TO THE NEAREST HONDA DEALER AND LEFT IT THERE. SINCE IT IS THE WEEKEND THEY WON'T BE LOOKING AT IT UNTIL NEXT WEEK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED WHEN THE VEHICLE JERKED AFTER A COMPLETE STOP AND DURING ACCELERATION THE VEHICLE HESITATED THEN JERKED. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT VEHICLE'S ALARM ACTIVATED AND FAILED TO DEACTIVATE. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ALARM MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE TECHNICIAN COULD NOT DETERMINE THE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE JERKING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 15,000. UPDATED 04/20/16*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED IN MARCH 2016. UPDATED 03/22/17.*JB

THE DRIVERS MIC AUDIO IS SO POOR THE CALLER TO THE CAR CANNOT UNDERSTAND THE DRIVER. THE VEHICLE HAS TO BE MOVING 40MPH+ TO HEAR THE AUDIO BREAKING UP. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED WITH THE BLUETOOTH A MAJOR FACTOR.

I BOUGHT MY CRV IN OCT 2013. FOR THE SECOND WINTER THE CONTINUES TO BE A LOUD GRINDING NOISE ON FIRST START OF THE DAY. IT MUST BE IN THE 20S OR LOWER FOR THE NOISE. THIS WINTER I HAD THE DEALER VERIFY THE PROBLEM. SAID IT'S THE VTC ACTUATOR AND HONDA IS WORKING ON IT. DEALER AGREES IT IS A DEFEAT, BUT HONDA HAS NO FIX IN PLACE. APPARENTLY REPLACING THE VTC ACTUATOR WILL NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. HONDA HAS BEEN AWARE OF THE PROBLEM FOR AT LEAST 2 YEARS NOW. STILL NO WORD. I THINKING HONDA IS JUST MOVING ON AND IGNORING THIS PROBLEM.

MY ELDERLY MOTHER DIED IN A FIRE IN HER 2014 HONDA CR-V. THERE WERE NO WITNESSES TO THE ORIGIN OF THE FIRE. THE CAR WAS FIRST SEEN WHEN FULLY ENGULFED BY FLAME, 10 TO 20 MINUTES AFTER MY MOTHER WAS SEEN GETTING INTO HER CAR. UNKNOWN IF SHE LET IT IDLE BEFORE DRIVING. SHE DROVE ABOUT 1200 FEET. HER CAR WAS FOUND IN WET IVY AT THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. HER KEY WAS IN HER HAND, AND SHE WAS LEANING TOWARDS THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAR, APPARENTLY TRYING TO ESCAPE THE FIRE. (BECAUSE THE CAR WAS ON A HILL, LEANING TOWARDS THE PASSENGER SIDE, FLAMES FROM BENEATH THE CAR WERE STRONGEST ON THE DRIVER SIDE AND WOULD HAVE BLOCKED HER EXIT. THE PASSENGER SIDE WAS NOT COMPLETELY BURNED.) IT IS IMPROBABLE THAT THE IVY IGNITED BECAUSE IT WAS LATE FALL IN THE PACIFIC NORTHWEST AND THE WEATHER HAD BEEN VERY WET FOR DAYS. I BELIEVE THAT A FIRE IGNITED SOMEWHERE IN THE VEHICLE AND THIS FIRE CAUSED MY MOTHER TO GO OFF THE ROAD. AN AUTOPSY SHOWED SHE DIED OF SMOKE INHALATION AND BURNS. THE CAR WAS IN GOOD CONDITION WITH RECENT SERVICING. NO SIGNS OF RECENT OIL LEAKAGE IN GARAGE. WE HAVE LOCATED OTHER 2012-2014 CR-V FIRES THAT BEGAN SPONTANEOUSLY. SOME BLAMED ON LEAVES TRAPPED IN VEHICLE, ANOTHER ON FLUID LEAKS, INCLUDING TWO ON SAFERCAR.GOV. (NHTSA NOS. 10654938 AND 10546273). I RETAIN THE VEHICLE. ## VIN PASSED ## HONDA CRV 2014 ##

COLD WEATHER ENGINE STARTS WITH RATTLE SOUND VTC ACTUATOR ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT NIGHT AT APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH AND MAKING A TURN, THE HIGH BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE ADEQUATE SIDE VIEW LIGHTING. THE FAILURE ALSO OCCURRED WHEN DRIVING INTO A CURVE. IN ADDITION, THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ILLUMINATED INADEQUATE DISTANCE OF THE ROAD. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW AT THE END OF 2013. ON OLD MORNING AND SPORADICALLY AND COOL MORNINGS IN THE SPRING AND FALL THERE IS A LOUD GRINDING SOUND UNDER THE HOOD. IT LOOKS LIKE MANY PEOPLE HAVE THIS ISSUE. I HAVE TAKEN IT IN 3 TIMES NOW TO A HONDA DEALER AND EVERY SINGLE TIME THEY ARE THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND DO NOT HEAR IT THEMSELVES. THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIX OR REPAIR IT YET IT SEEMS TO BE SUCH A COMMON PROBLEM.

COLD WEATHER STARTUP, GRINDING NOISE FOR A FEW SECONDS.

AFTER STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT WHEN IT TURNS GREEN HAD NO ACCELERATION UNTIL PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL UP AND DOWN TWICE. THIS HAS HAPPEN NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE THEN. IT SEEMS THE ENGINE STAYS AT IDLE. ALSO HAVE ISSUES WITH THE TPS LIGHT GOING ON FOR NO REASON AND NOW A GROWLING SOUND WHEN THE ENGINE IS COLD AND IT IS COLD OUTSIDE BELOW 20 DEGREES WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE. MANUFACTURE NOT NOTIFIED. THESE ARE ISSUES THAT HAVE BEEN REPORTED FROM OTHER CR-V OWNERS NUMEROUS TIMES A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED GET A BEFORE SOMEONE LOSSES THERE LIFE OR CAUSES OTHER TO LOOSE THEIRS.

I HAVE A 2014 HONDA CRV WITH 19K MILES ON IT. I HAD THE TIRES ROTATED AND BALANCED 9-14-14 AT 5586 MILES AND 7-27-2015 AT 14461 MILES AT THE DEALER IN ROCKWALL, TX. I HAD THE TIRES ROTATED AND BALANCED AT DISCOUNT TIRES ON 1-13-2016 AND THE SERVICE MAN INFORMED ME THAT AT 18746 MILES THAT THE TIRES WERE HALF GONE! THE CAR CAME WITH CONTINENTAL CROSS CONTACT LX 225/65R17 TIRES 60K TIRES. I WOULD HAVE EXPECTED MUCH MORE FROM HONDA. I QUESTIONED THE SALESMAN AT THE TIME ABOUT THE TIRES AND HE ASSURED ME THESE WERE GOOD TIRES. I DO NOT CONSISTED THIS GOOD. WHY WOULD HONDA PUT SUCH POOR PREFORMING TIRES ON THERE CARS?

GRINDING SOUND AT ENGINE START UP IN COLD WEATHER. IT HAPPENS EVERY WINTER.

GRINDING SOUND AT START UP ON COLD MORNINGS,PROBABLY FAULTY VTC ACTUATOR WHICH HONDA WILL OR CANNOT FIX. THIS GRINDING HAS TO BE DOING SOME KIND OF DAMAGE THAT WILL BE MORE SERIOUS LATER TO MY VEHICLE.

WITH COLD STARTS (STARTING THE ENGINE FIRST THING IN THE MORNING) THERE IS A GRINDING RUMBLE FROM UNDER THE FRONT OF THE CAR THAT LASTS A SECOND OR TWO. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR, AND THE SERVICE DEPT HAS SAID NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT. YESTERDAY, I TOOK THE CAR IN TO HAVE IT EXAMINED AND REPAIRED, AND THE HONDA SERVICE MANAGER CONFIRMED THAT THE NOISE WAS COMING FROM A DEFECTIVE VTC ACTUATOR. HE WENT ON TO SAY THAT HONDA IS CONTINUING TO PRODUCE THE SAME DEFECTIVE ACTUATOR THEY HAVE PRODUCED FOR THE PAST 8 YEARS AND THAT THE HONDA CORPORATION WILL NOT ALLOW DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENTS TO REPLACE THEM. "THEY'RE ALL FAULTY, SO IT WOULDN'T MATTER." THIS DEFECT IN A CRITICAL ENGINE PART MUST BE ADDRESSED AND THE PART REPLACED.

AFTER 12000 MILES NOTICED MINOR PULSATING WHEN BRAKING. PROBLEM GOT PERSISTENTLY WORSE WHERE ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE CAR GOING DOWN HILL AT 65 MPH. TOOK IN TO DEALER WHO PERFORMED AN INSPECTION. THEY REPORTED FRONT BRAKE ROTORWARPING DUE TO NORMAL WEAR AND TEAR. ALL BRAKE PADS SHOWWEED MINIMAL WEAR. I STATED TO THE DEALER THAT I FELT THIS WAS NOT NORMAL. THEY TOLD ME TO CHANGE MY DRIVING HABITS. AFTER MUCH DISCUSSION THEY DECIDED TO COVER A PORTION OF THE COST BUT STATED NEXT TIME IT WOULD BE MY RESPONSIBILITY. THIS SHOULD NOT OCCUR SO EARLY ON.

WHEN STARTING THE CAR, ESPECIALLY AFTER IT SITTING FOR A WHILE, IT WILL MAKE A RATCHETING SOUND AFTER STARTING. I CALLED THE DEALER WHERE PURCHASED FROM AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEM THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR. WAS TOLD THEY ARE WORKING ON IT AND WOULD HAVE A FIX IN FEBRUARY.

MY VEHICLE MAKES A TERRIBLE SOUND UNDER THE HOOD UPON STARTING WHEN IT IS COLD. I RESEARCHED IT ONLINE AND DISCOVERED IT IS THE VTC ACTUATOR VALVE (MOST LIKELY). TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP, LET IT OVERNIGHT SO THEY WOULD HEAR IT AFTER SETTING. THEY CLAIM NO NOISE UPON STARTING IT. I AM CONCERNED AT SOME POINT ENGINE PARTS ARE BEING DAMAGED. THE NOISE BEGAN WITHIN 2 MONTHS OF OWNERSHIP. WENT TO ANOTHER HONDA DEALER, THEY SAID "HONDA PROBABLY DOES KNOW ABOUT THIS BUT THERE IS NO REPAIR/RECALL ORDER ISSUED SO THEY WON'T REPAIR IT. CAR WAS PURCHASED NEW.

CAR IS ONLY 13 MONTHS OLD AND HAD A DEAD BATTERY TWICE WHEN NOTHING WAS LEFT ON. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE BECAUSE I SPENT $30,000 ON THIS CAR AND MY LOAN IS FOR 4 MORE YEARS. HONDA DEALERSHIP SAYS BATTERY AND CHARGING SYSTEM IS FINE. NOT WHAT I WAS EXPECTING FROM HONDA, CAR IS NOT RELIABLE AT ALL. I'M SCARED TO TAKE IT FAR BECAUSE I WILL GET STRANDED. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED.

WHEN ON A CURVY ROAD THE CAR SOMETIMES MAKES LOUD NOISES THUMPING NOISES AND THE PANSANGER FLOOR VIBRATES VIOLENTLY LIKE THE CAR IS GOING TO FALL A PART. CAR IS ONLY 13 MONTHS OLD AND I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. IT HAS 45K MILES NOW BUT PROBLEM STARTED AT 30K MILES. THE DEALER COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND DENIED THAT THEIR WAS A PROBLEM.

I GOT INTO A HEAD ON COLLISION AND THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT BELT CAME OFF OF THE FRAME, SO IF NOT FOR THE AIR BAG THE PASSENGER WOULD HAVE GONE RIGHT INTO THE WINDOW.

WHEN STARTING THE CAR, ESPECIALLY AFTER IT SITTING FOR A WHILE, IT WILL MAKE A RATCHETING SOUND AFTER STARTING. I CALLED THE DEALER WHERE PURCHASED FROM AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEM THAT THERE IS NO FIX FOR. WAS TOLD THEY ARE WORKING ON IT AND WOULD HAVE A FIX IN FEBRUARY. LOOKED UP THIS PROBLEM ONLINE AND SAW THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM WITH HONDA'S SINCE 2008 ALONG WITH NUMEROUS VIDEOS OF THE SAME SOUND.

RUSTED ON MAJOR PARTS OF THE SUSPENSION THAT IS HOLDING THE BREAKING MECHANISM..

WHILE SLOWING DOWN TO MAKE A LEFT TURN, I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE GAS AND THEN MY FOOT WHEN BACK ON THE GAS, BUT THERE WAS NO POWER. I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AND THEN BACK ON TO RECOVER. THIS HAS HAPPENED A NUMBER OF TIMES AND HAVE COME CLOSE TO TWO ACCIDENTS FROM ONCOMING CARS. THE ANSWER I GET FROM MY DEALER IS THAT THEY HAVE NO RECORD OF THIS PROBLEM, AND SUGGESTED TURNING THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF. I DID THIS BUT STILL HAVE EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND MUST BE CORRECTED IN A RECALL. I ALSO, LIKE A NUMBER OF OTHER HONDA OWNERS, EXPERIENCE THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMING ON. DEALER SAYS NO FIX FOR THIS.

ENGINE HAS A COLD START RATTLE, HONDA SAYS IT IS THE VTC ACTUATOR. HONDA HAS CHANGED IT ONCE AND IT STILL MAKES THE NOISE. HONDA SAYS THAT ARE WORKING ON A FIX, BUT IT LOOKS LIKE THEY HAVE WORKING ON IT SINCE 2012.

ON THE INITIAL STARTUP, ON COOL TO COLD MORNINGS, THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE IN THE STARTER FOR ABOUT 1-2 SECONDS. THIS WAS A BRAND NEW CAR. THE HONDA DEALER SAYS HONDA KNOWS ABOUT IT AND IS WORKING ON A FIX. THEY SAY IT IS NOT HURTING THE CAR. IT SOUNDS AWFUL. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS PARKED. BEGAN JAN. 2014-NOW.

TPMS TPMS SYSTEM WOULD COME ON WHEN I DROVE FOR MORE THAN AN HOUR. BUT ONLY WHEN I DROVE FOR OVER AN HOUR ON THE HIGHWAY. WHEN I CHECKED THE TIRE PRESSURE THERE WOULD BE NOTHING WRONG. FINALLY I ASKED A MECHANIC AND HE RECALIBRATED/REBOOTED THE SYSTEM AND IT HAS NOT COME ON SINCE. ENGINE GRINDING WHEN I START THE CAR UP AFTER IT BEING IN THE COLD OVERNIGHT THERE IS AN INITIAL GRINDING SOUND.

TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT COMES ON WHEN THE PRESSURE IS AT RECOMMENDED SETTING. DOESN'T MATTER WHERE I'M DRIVING. HAVE BROUGHT THIS IN TO THE DEALER THREE TIMES. THEY ALWAYS CHECK FOR ME AND TELL ME I'M FINE, AND TO JUST RESET THE LIGHT. I WOULD LOVE IF THEY COULD PROVIDE A FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM, THERE MAY COME A TIME THAT I NEED TO KNOW THAT THE TIRE IS UNDERINFLATED.

I HAVE A 2014 HONDA CRV WITH 21,751 MILES. I ALWAYS HAVE HAD SERVICE BY HONDA REGULARLY AND NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEMS. I WAS NOT DUE FOR SERVICE FOR ANOTHER MONTH WHEN I HAD A FLAT TIRE DUE TO A NAIL. I WENT TO GET THE TIRE FIXED WHEN I WAS TOLD BY THE TIRE DEALER THAT ALL 4 TIRES WERE DRY ROTTED. I WAS SKEPTICAL BECAUSE THE CAR WAS JUST 2 YEARS OLD ON OCT. 30, 2015. I TOOK IT TO A FRIEND WHO IS A MECHANIC AND ASKED HIM ABOUT "PLUGGING" MY TIRE JUST TO SEE IF HE WOULD SAY ANYTHING ABOUT THE TIRES BEING DRY ROTTED. HE TOOK THE TIRE OFF AND KEPT EXAMINING IT, THEN STARTED LOOKING AT THE OTHER TIRES THEN HE SAID ALL FOUR TIRES HAVE DRY ROT. HE SUGGESTED 4 NEW TIRES AND HE DOES NOT SELL TIRES. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER BUT HE DID NOT GET BACK TO ME UNTIL LATER THAT DAY. I CALLED CONTINENTAL AND WAS DIRECTED TO ONE OF THEIR DEALERS. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NOT A BIG DEAL AND THEY WOULD ONLY PRO RATE THE TIRES NOT REPLACE THEM FOR FREE. I TOLD CONTINENTAL WHY WOULD I WANT THE SAME TIRES ON MY CAR AGAIN? THAT'S LIKE LETTING THE DOG BITE YOU IN THE BUTT!. NEEDLESS TO SAY I ENDED UP BUYING 4 NEW TIRES (DIFFERENT BRAND) AT THE COST OF $520.86.

THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON EVEN THOUGH THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRES IS AT THE RECOMMENDED PRESSURE. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY, MANY TIMES AND THE DEALER CANNOT REMEDY THE PROBLEM. THE LAST TIME I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY "RECALIBRATED" THE SYSTEM. THAT STILL DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THEY ADMITTED THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. THIS PROBLEM CAN OCCUR WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION AND IT DOES NOT MATTER IF IT IS OCCURRING ON A CITY STREET, HIGHWAY OR WHEN TURNING. IT CAN HAPPEN AT ANY TIME. I'M AFRAID THAT PEOPLE WILL IGNORE THESE FALSE WARNINGS AND EVENTUALLY DRIVE WITH A TIRE THAT IS ACTUALLY UNDER INFLATED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE TURNING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE VEHICLE LUNGED FORWARD AND CRASHED HEAD ON INTO A LAMP POST WHILE TURNING. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED EXTENSIVE FRONT DRIVER SIDE DAMAGE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 9,300.

TOOK VEHICLE TO GET B1 SERVICE AT HONDA DEALER. WAS NOTIFIED THAT OIL SEEPAGE WAS VISIBLE IN THE ENGINE AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED, SERVICE NOTES STATE WILL INSPECT AT NEXT SERVICE. THE CAR HAS 19,245 MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE MANUAL FRONT DRIVER SIDE SEAT HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT WOULD LOWER ERRONEOUSLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHO WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100.

THE DESIGN IS DETRIMENTAL TO A SHORT PERSON'S (62 INCH & UNDER) SAFETY. THE STARRING DOES NOT GO DOWN FAR ENOUGH FOR THE DRIVER TO SEE THE ROAD. ALSO THE DRIVER SEAT IS TILTED AWAY FROM STARRING WHEEL. THE HEADLIGHT BEAM ENDS BEFORE THE DRIVER CAN SEE THE ROAD. I COMPLAINED BUT THEY DID NOT TAKE ANY ACTION TO EVEN CHECK. IF THE STARRING WHEEL CAN BE PUSHED FURTHER DOWN AND THE LENGTH OF THE HEADLIGHT BEAM COULD BE EXTENDED FURTHER THE DRIVER WOULD NOT SEE A DARK ROAD AHEAD OF HIM/HER. IT IS A CRASH WAITING TO HAPPEN. PLEASE REVIEW THIS . I WILL BE GLAD TO ANSWER ANY QUESTIONS. HONDA, AS USUAL, DOES NOT ADMIT AND FIX THE SAFETY ISSUES BROUGHT TO THEM.

I WAS DRIVING FROM VEGAS TODAY 10/3 AFTERNOON TO LOS ANGELES. I WAS ON CRUISE FOR A COUPLE OF HOURS AT LEAST. KEPT IT AROUND 70-71 BASED ON THE SPEED LIMIT. THERE WAS ONE POINT WHEN THE VEHICLE INCREASED THE SPEED AUTOMATICALLY TO 80-82 IN CRUISE. I WAS NOT INCREASING THE VALUE NOR MY LEG WAS ON THE ACCELERATOR. IT WAS SURPRISING AND SCARY. LUCKILY THE ROADS WERE FREE. ELSE THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN A REAR END OR SOME OTHER THING. I HAD TO STEP ON BRAKE TO REMOVE THE VEHICLE FROM CRUISE. I AM A FAN OF HONDA AND HAD AN ACCORD 2006- 2008 AND THEN A CRV 2008 TILL 2014 AND FINALLY A 2014 CRV. OTHER OLD ONES DID NOT HAVE SUCH A PROBLEM. THIS ONE SCARED ME OUT OF MY SKIN.

HAS THE TENDENCY TO STALL WHEN IN MOTION ,RPM DROPS TO ZERO AND WITH NO POWER, WAS BEING DRIVEN ON CITY STREET IN SUNNY AND GOOD WEATHER AND TEMPERATURE IN THE 60'S SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED, DEALER SAID IT WAS BECAUSE OF FOOT ON BRAKE PEDAL, PER HONDA TEC, AND THAT THE BRAKE WAS OVER RIDING BY THE GAS CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL WAS NOT USING BRAKE PEDAL AT ALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND POWERED ON WITH A CHILD THE REAR SEAT, THE CONTACT RETURNED TO THE VEHICLE TO TURN IT OFF WHEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO JUMP INSIDE THE VEHICLE IN ORDER TO ATTEMPT TO STOP IT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,042.

MY 1 YEAR-OLD HONDA CR-V HAS 17,000 MILES ON IT BECAUSE I DO A LOT OF DRIVING FOR MY BUSINESS. IN THAT TIME, THE TIRE WARNING LIGHT HAS COME ON AT LEAST 4 TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WAS AS WINTER WAS SETTING IN, AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, WHERE WE BOTH ASSUMED IT WAS JUST THE COLD WEATHER CAUSING THE TIRES TO LOSE A LITTLE PRESSURE, SO THEY PUT A LITTLE AIR IN AND RESET THE BUTTON. THE OTHER THREE TIMES, IT HAS BEEN QUITE WARM, SO COLD WEATHER IS NOT THE ISSUE. EACH TIME, I HAVE NOT BEEN ANYWHERE I COULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER, BUT I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY MECHANIC TWICE AND STOPPED AT A FORD DEALER I WAS PASSING WHEN IT HAPPENED OVER THE WEEKEND OF JULY 4TH. EACH TIME, NOBODY COULD FIND ANY PROBLEM, AND WE JUST RESET THE BUTTON. IT DOESN'T MAKE ME COMFORTABLE TO SEE THAT A NUMBER OF PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IT ALSO DOESN'T MAKE ME COMFORTABLE THAT THE WARNING LIGHT IS MEANT TO LET ME KNOW WHEN THERE IS A PROBLEM. HOW WILL I KNOW THAT I CAN COUNT ON IT WORKING PROPERLY IF THERE REALLY IS A PROBLEM?!

TURNED LEFT INTO DRIVEWAY AND HIT BRAKES, CAR LURCHED FORWARD AND SPED UP. I JAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND IT STOPPED JUST BEFORE RAMMING INTO THE GARAGE DOOR. PLEASE NOTE THAT THIS IS THE SECOND INCIDENT. APPROXIMATELY ONE MONTH AGO, A SIMILAR THING HAPPENED AFTER I APPLIED THE BRAKES, TURNED LEFT, THEN SLIGHT RIGHT TO PULL OFF THE ROAD TO PARK. SUDDENLY, INSTEAD OF STOPPING, THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD. I SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND WAS ABLE TO STOP ABOUT 20 FEET FROM MY INTENDED STOPPING PLACE.

BOUGHT THIS NEW HONDA CR-V WITH 3,000 SOME ODD MILES ALREADY ON IT, SO PRACTICALLY NEW. THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT CONTINUALLY COMES ON AND EVERY TIME WE TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE PURCHASES IT.TO CHECK IT OUT THE ATTENDANT CAN'T FIND A PUNCTURE AND CAN'T FIGURE OUT WHY THE PRESSURE IS LEAVING.SO THEY JUST RESET IT. UNTIL RECENTLY WHEN I TOOK IT INTO FIRESTONE AND THEY REALLY EXAMINED THE CAR ONLY TO HAVE ME WALK OVER AND SEE THAT THERE ARE RIPPLES (SOME PRETTY LARGE RIPPLES) IN VARIES PLACES OF THE TIRE. HE ALSO PUSH WITH HIS FINGERS THE TIRES INWARD TO SHOW HOW EASILY THESE TIRES MADE THE RIPPLES. I WAS COMPLETELY SHOCK. HE SAID THESE TIRES COULD POP AT ANY TIME. I CAN'T BELIEVE I JUST PURCHASED A CAR THAT NEEDS A COMPLETE SET OF NEW TIRES. FUNNY THING IS ONE OF THE TIRES ACTUALLY DID GET FLAT MAYBE 5 MONTHS AND I REPLACED THAT TIRE WITH ANOTHER CONTINENTAL TIRE (BECAUSE I WAS TOLD IF YOU GET NEW TIRES YOU NEED TO GET AT LEAST 2 OF THE SAME) NOT WANTING TO BUY 2 NEW TIRES I OPTED JUST TO GET 1 OF THE SAME BRAND. THE ATTENDANT FROM FIRESTONE COULDN'T EVEN TELL WHICH TIRE (5 MONTHS OLD) WAS NEW. RIDICULOUS AND SERIOUSLY UNSAFE ARE THESE TIRES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED INDEPENDENTLY. THE CONTACT SIDESWIPED ANOTHER VEHICLE AND CRASHED HEAD ON INTO A LAMP POST. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND SHOULDER INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE SUSTAINED EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000.

2014 HONDA CRV. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE TIRE PRESSURE AND BRAKE SYSTEM ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHILE DRIVING ON A SNOW PACK ROAD, HE WENT AROUND A BROAD CURVE, AT A SLOW SPEED, WHEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE SLID ACROSS THE ROAD INTO AN ONCOMING LANE. THE CONSUMER STATED HE REALIZED THE VEHICLE SLID TOO EASILY AND THE ABS ACTIVATED PREMATURELY, PRIOR TO THE INCIDENT, THE TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE CONSUMER BELIEVED THE TIRES WERE UNSAFE. *JB UPDATED 12/22/15. *JB

MY CRV IS 16 MONTHS OLD; I PARKED IN MY NEW GARAGE AND ON THE NEXT DAY I START THE CAR AND FUEL IS POURING OUT OF THE TANK OR FUEL SYSTEM OR FUEL PUMP. I SHUT DOWN THE CAR DUE TO THE POLLUTION IT COULD HAVE CASUED. I CALLED THE DEALER ON MONDAY AND HAD IT TOWED. THEY TELL ME THAT A CRITTER MUST HAVE CHEWED THROUGH THE LINE. HOW COULD THIS BE. THIS IS JUST ANOTHER SCAM BY HONDA TO COVER ALL THE RECALL COSTS THEY ARE HAVING TO DEAL WITH. MY GAS TANK COULD HAVE EXPLODED BECAUSE IF WAS STEAMING ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE. MY CAR HAS ONLY 34,000 MILES AND THIS IS THEM TRYING TO GET OUT OF A $1,000 PLUS CHARGE TO ME. PLEASE HELP ME; I HAVE CALLED HONDA BUT NO ONE IS RETURNING MY CALLS AND DOES NOT SEEM TO CARE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS AND SERIOUS PROBLEM.

WE HAVE A 2014 CR V WITH 15,000 MILE ON IT. WE BOUGHT IT NEW. IN 12-MONTHS THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM HAS GONE OFF 3-TIMES. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT, EXCEPT RESET IT. HOW CAN WE TRUST THIS AS A SAFETY FACTOR?

SINCE MY CAR WAS NEW I HAVE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT COMING ON FOR NO REASON. IT INDICATES LOW TIRE PRESSURE IN ONE OF MY TIRES. IT IS PROVIDING A FALSE INDICATION OF TIRE TROUBLE THAT SIMPLY DOESN'T EXIST. I HAVE HAD THE CAR TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES. THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE ISSUE ON HONDA FORUMS AND FOUND MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2014 HONDA CR-V'S.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE AND THEN THE VEHICLE HAD A SUDDEN UNINTENDED INCREASE IN ACCELERATION TO 45 MPH OR HIGHER. THE CONTACT HAD TO APPLY FORCE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHO WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE FAILURE AFTER KEEPING THE VEHICLE FOR TWO DAYS. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED FOR THEIR SAFETY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,300.

THE CAR WAS PARKED WHILE WE WERE EATING BREAKFAST AT JACK IN A BOX PINEVILLE MATTHEWS. THE PASSENGER GLASS WINDOW AT THE BACK OF DRIVER SEAT JUST SHATTERED INTO FINE PIECES. THE SHATTERED GLASS WAS FALLING NATURALLY INSIDE THE CAR AND ON THE GROUND. I HAVE PHOTOS OF THE PARTIAL GLASS WINDOW, DEBRIS INSIDE THE CAR AND ON THE GROUND. THE GLASS WINDOW SEEMED FACTORY DEFECT. THE RESTAURANT CLEANED THE FINE CHOPPED GLASSES ON THE GROUND.

AFTER BEING IN THE OFF MODE, THE IGNITION BATTERY POWER DOES NOT START ENGINE WITH OUT A POWERFUL BATTERY BOOST. THIS HAS HAPPENED1T LEAST 13 TIMES WITH NO WARNING SIGN. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TAKEN TO TWO DEALERSHIPS AND THEY DECLARED NOTHING HAS BEEN. HONDA OF CA SAID THAT THEY INVESTIGATED AND DECLARED THAT NO ISSUE HAD BEEN FOUND. I HAVE PURCHASED A HIGH POWER BOOSTER AS AN INTERMEDIARY FIX.

I ENTERED A PARKING LOT TO TAKE MY GRANDGIRLS TO A WILDLIFE REFUGE EXHIBIT. DROVE DOWN DRIVEWAY, TURNED LEFT OFF OF DRIVEWAY TO PARK CAR FACING WEST WHICH WOULD BE FACING ANOTHER CAR FACING EAST. TURN WAS IMMEDIATE, SO BRAKES WERE APPLIED. CAR DID NOT SLOW DOWN OR STOP . . . RATHER, IT ACCELERATED WITH A LURCH! I WAS LAYING ON THE BRAKES; THEY DID NOT ENGAGE UNTIL FRONTAL CONTACT PUSHED FACING CAR OUT OF MY WAY, AND I WAS ABLE TO THROW CAR INTO PARK. NO ACTION WHEN ENGAGING EMERGENCY BRAKES. OF COURSE, DOCUMENTED AS AN "AT-FAULT" ACCIDENT BY MY INSURANCE COMPANY. (MAY I PERSONALLY MENTION THAT I HAVE BEEN DRIVING 48 YEARS AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN "AT-FAULT" ACCIDENT - HAVEN'T EVEN HIT A GARBAGE CAN!) RETURNED CAR TO HONDA DEALERSHIP TO CHECK OUT BRAKING/ACCELERATION. THE RESPONSE FROM THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE WAS, (AND I DIRECTLY QUOTE), "WE COULDN'T FIND A PROBLEM, BUT, WHEN YOU EXPERIENCE THIS PROBLEM AGAIN, PLEASE HAVE IT TOWED TO OUR DEALERSHIP!" I HAVE OWNED 14 SUBSEQUENT HONDAS, BUT WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER! THAT CRV TOOK ITS OWN FREE WILL AS I TRIED MY BEST TO CONTROL IT - NOTHING DOING! UPDATED 10/07/15*LJ UPDATED 11/08/2017*CN

THERE SEEMS TO BE A LOW SPEED STALL. I'VE REPORTED TO THE DEALER BUT THEY CLAIM ITS A GEARING PROBLEM. WHEN YOU ARE AT A STOP OR MAKING A LOW SPEED TURN THE GAS PEDAL DOESN'T ENGAGE IN ORDER FOR THE CAR TO MOVE. THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS IN THAT YOU MAY BE IN HARMS WAY WITH NO WAY OF GETTING OUT OF THE SITUATION. I DID TAKE MY VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER AFTER I FIRST EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM BUT THEY HAVE NO RECALLS OR FIXES FOR THE PROBLEM. UPDATED 09/09/15*LJ.....UPDATED 09/11/15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED WITHIN THE LAST FEW DAYS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AGAIN AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR WAS APPLIED, IT TOOK AT LEAST 10 SECONDS FOR A RESPONSE. HONDA STATED THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS IN ECONOMY MODE. HOWEVER, THE CONSUMER STATED IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN ECONOMY MODE. UPDATED 10/28/15. *JB UPDATED 11/01/2017*CN

HAPPENED A FEW WEEKS AFTER VEHICLE PURCHASE, TIRE PRESSURE WARNING LIGHT WOULD COME ON ALL OF A SUDDEN. I RESET IT PER THE OWNERS MANUAL AND WOULD HAPPEN A FEW MORE TIMES AND HAVE BEEN FINE UNTIL THE MOST RECENT BASIC SERVICE AT HONDA OF SERRAMONTE. LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN AND I RESET IT, SO FAR IT'S BEEN FINE. HAPPENED EARLY THIS YEAR, A GRINDING NOISE COULD BE HEARD ALMOST EVERY MORNING WHILE STARTING THE CAR. DOES NOT HAPPEN LATER ON IN THE DAY. TOOK VEHICLE TO HONDA OF SERRAMONTE AND LEFT VEHICLE THERE SO THEY COULD TEST IT IN THE MORNING. NEXT DAY IN THE AFTERNOON I WENT TO PICK UP MY VEHICLE, SERVICE REP WAI WONG WHO ASSISTED ME SAID TECHNICIAN DID NOT HEAR THE SOUND. SHE TOLD ME THERE ARE A FEW CASES OF THIS PROBLEM SO FAR. I ASKED HER FOR A SERVICE REPORT FOR MY RECORDS, SHE SAID IT IS NOT REQUIRED BECAUSE NO WORK WAS PERFORMED ON MY VEHICLE. SO I ASKED IF THE GRINDING NOISE WOULD DAMAGE THE ENGINE, SHE PROMISED VERY CONFIDENTLY THAT SHE IS POSITIVE THE ENGINE WOULD NOT BE DAMAGED BY THE GRINDING NOISE. IT HAS STILL BEEN MAKING THIS GRINDING NOISE FROM TIME TO TIME IN THE MORNINGS ONLY. ALSO, WITH A PASSENGER SITTING IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT, THE AIRBAG OFF LIGHT WOULD TURN ON FROM TIME TO TIME. I'VE CHECKED ONLINE FOR ANY RECALLS RELATED TO THE ABOVE THREE ISSUES I AM HAVING WITH MY VEHICLE, BUT SO FAR NONE TO DATE.

MY NEW 2014 HONDA CR-V IS GARAGED IN NW OHIO. ON COLD DECEMBER MORNINGS WHERE GARAGE IS COOLER THAN 40 DEGREES, A GRINDING SOUND IS HEARD AT START UP. IT LASTS 1-2 SECONDS. NOT EVERY TIME BUT AT MOST STARTS. THIS HAPPENED UNTIL APRIL.

WHEN CHANGING FROM PARK TO DRIVE AS SOON AS THE VEHICLE ROLLS FORWARD A FEW FEET IT CLUNKS THEN LURCHES AS IF THE TRANSMISSION FINALLY KICKED IN.

THERE IS A GRINDING NOISE/SOUND AT COLD START. VEHICLE IS GARAGED BUT DURING THE COLDER WEATHER MONTHS, THE STARTER HAS A TERRIBLE GRINDING SOUND. THIS OCCURRED WITH ONLY ABOUT 1200 MILES PUT ON THE CAR. IT WAS PURCHASED NEW IN MID-DECEMBER, 2013 (2014 MODEL) AND THE GRINDING SOUND FIRST OCCURRED IN LATE FEBRUARY, 2014. WAITED A FEW MORE MONTHS AND THEN CONTACTED LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP TO BRING IN THE CAR TO HAVE THEM DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS WAS DONE ON JANUARY 9TH, 2015. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF SOME OTHER 2014 CRV'S HAVING SAME/SIMILAR PROBLEM AS MINE. THEY FURTHER STATED THAT THE PROBLEM IS A VTC-ACTUATOR AND THAT HONDA HAD BEEN AWARE OF IT FOR SOME TIME. I WAS TOLD THAT HONDA HAS TO RE-ENGINEER THE PART AND THAT IT HOPEFULLY BE READY BY THE SUMMER OF 2015. STILL NO WORD FROM THE DEALERSHIP ON THE STATUS OF THE RE-ENGINEERED PART BEING AVAILABLE AT THIS TIME. I WILL FOLLOW UP WITH THEM TODAY.

TPMS WARNING LIGHT CAME ON BUT TIRES WERE ALL INFLATED TO SPECIFICATION. OVER 20 TIMES THE TPMS LIGHT CAME ON FROM 12/22/13 TO 6/1/2015.

THE AIR TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON FOR THE FIRST FEW MONTHS. I CANCELED OUT PER INSTRUCTIONS OF DEALER AFTER I WENT TO THEM THE FIRST THREE TIMES - THEY CHECKED PRESSURE AND FOUND IT TO BE AS IT SHOULD BE. ALSO, LOW BEAMS ON HEAD LIGHTS ARE NOT VERY BRIGHT. HI BEAMS ARE OK. WHILE DRIVING IN THE COUNTRY IN THE DARK, THE LOW BEAMS SEEM TO ONLY SHOW AREA DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. TO USE HIGH BEAMS WOULD BE DISTRACTING AND DANGEROUS FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC. PREVIOUSLY HAD ODYSSEY THAT GOT 22 MPG IN TOWN. IT HAD A 6 CYLINDER ENGINE. I THOUGHT THAT THE 4 CYLINDER CR-V WOULD DO BETTER THAN THAT, BUT DOES NOT DO BETTER IN TOWN. MOST OF MY DRIVING IS IN TOWN DRIVING. COST OF DOING REGULAR MAINTENANCE ON THE VEHICLE IS HIGH AT MY HONDA DEALERSHIP. VEHICLE INSPECTIONS AS PART OF REGULAR MAINTENANCE ARE VERY HIGH. I HAVE LESS THAN 15,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND $75 OVER AND ABOVE THE PRICE FOR THE OIL CHANGE SEEMED PRETTY STEEP TO ME. THE VEHICLE IS JUST THE RIGHT SIZE FOR MY NEEDS AND I LIKE SITTING HIGHER IN THE CR-V AS OPPOSED IN A SEDAN THAT SITS LOWER.

I HAVE A 2014 HONDA CRV THAT HAD A DEFECTIVE ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT WHEEL THAT BECAME UNUSABLE WHEN IT WOULD NO LONGER HOLD AIR AND HAD TO BE REPLACED.

TPMS WARNING LIGHT APPEARED ON DASHBOARD. STOPPED AT HONDA DEALERSHIP. TIRES WERE AT CORRECT PRESSURE. WE WERE SHOWN WHERE THE BUTTON WAS ON THE DASHBOARD TO CLEAR THE TPMS WARNING LIGHT. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST TWICE SINCE THE FIRST INCIDENT. IT WAS BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT TIME AND WE WERE TOLD THE TIRE PRESSURE ON ALL 4 TIRES WAS FINE AND THEY CANCELED THE WARNING LIGHT ON THE DASHBOARD. ALL OF THIS AT NO COST TO US. THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED I CANCELED THE WARNING LIGHT. THE ISSUE MUST BE A ENGINEERING OR DESIGN FAILURE/PROBLEM OTHERWISE WHY WOULD THEY HAVE A BUTTON ON THE DASHBOARD SO THE DRIVER COULD CANCEL THE WARNING LIGHT? WE FEEL WE CAN'T TRUST THE WARNING LIGHT ANYMORE AND QUITE FRANKLY WONDER HOW SAFE THE TIRES AND VEHICLE IS TO DRIVE.

THIS IS THE MOST UNCOMFORTABLE CAR I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. THE FRONT SEAT CANNOT BE ADJUSTED TO MY COMFORT....IT DOES NOT STAY UP...I NEED TO SIT HIGH AND IT IS IMPOSSBLE TO MAKE IT STAY UP BECAUSE OF WHERE THE LEVER TO ADJUST IT IS. I REALLY DO NOT LIKE THE CAR AT ALL, BUT THE MOST ANNOYING THING IS NOT BEING ABLE TO SEE OVER THE STEERING WHEEL. I HAVE HAVE BEEN BACK TO MY DEALERSHIP AND THEY JUST BLEW IT OFF...NOT THIER PROBLEM...I WOULD THINK THERE SHOULD BE SOMETHING THAT COULD BE DONE. IT IS ROUGH RIDING WHICH I THINK IS BECAUSE OF THE TIRES ON THE CAR WHICH I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE...I HAVE 16,000 UNHAPPY MILES ON THE CAR. THE CAR WAS PUCHAED NEW IN 2013...IT IS A 2014.

I WILL ALWAYS READ THIS SIGHT BEFORE BUYING ANOTHER CAR. I HAVE HAD CRV 2014 18 MONTHS AND BEGAN PROBLEMS AFTER 2 WEEKS. TPMS LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON EVERY FEW WEEKS. LOW BEAM LIGHTS ARE BAD AND HIGH BEAMS ARE RIDICULOUSLY TOO FAR AHEAD AND CAN'T SEE RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU. THE HEAD REST LEANS SO FAR FORWARD ITS UNCOMFORTABLE AND AWKWARD. MY ENGINE MAKES A TERRIBLE GRINDING SOUND WHEN STARTING THE CAR. AFTER READING ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS, I CONSIDER MYSELF FORTUNATE I HAVEN'T HAD ACCELERATION UPON APPLYING THE BRAKES OR NO THROTTLE WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. I WILL BE CAUTIOUS OF THOSE PROBLEMS NOW SINCE I'VE HAD SO MANY OF THE OTHERS LISTED HERE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM LIGHT CONTINUED TO ILLUMINATE ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE TIRES WERE SET TO THE CORRECT PSI AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE SYSTEM WAS WORKING UP TO SPECIFICATIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN. UPDATED 7/28/15*CN

THE CARS A/C CONDENSER WAS HIT BY A PEBBLE ON THE ROAD AND IT DAMAGED ONE OF THE VEINS. NEEDS TO REPLACE WITH A NEW ONE.

WHEN DOING THE FIRST OIL CHANGE, THERE WERE SIGNIFICANT OIL LEAK AROUND TIMING CHAIN COVER.
