ABS AND VSA LIGHTS CAME ON. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO DEALER AND WAS TOLD THE ABS MODULATOR NEEDED REPLACING. MY COST WOULD BE $2450.00. SINCE THIS COMPONENT CONTROLS BRAKES AND STABILITY IT SEEMS TO ME TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND THEREFORE SUBJECT TO A RECALL.

I'VE ALSO HAD ISSUES WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE HEADLIGHTS BURNING OUT AT LEAST 6 TIMES A YEAR TO WHICH HONDA COULD NEVER FIND A PROBLEM.

COMPRESSOR CLUTCH GETS SO HOT IF THE A/C IS RAN IT MELTS OR BURNS AROUND CLUTCH AND COMPRESSOR NO HEAT SHIELDS ... (POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD)....

THE PASSENGER-SIDE HEADLIGHT ON MY 2006 CR-V WENT OUT 06/10/15, SO I HAD IT REPLACED @HONDA DEALER NEXT DAY. THE TECH SAID HIGH-BEAM WAS ALSO OUT! I QUESTIONED THE LIKELIHOOD OF SUCH AN OCCURRENCE, BUT WAS NOT GIVEN ANY RESPONSE THAT INDICATED A "KNOWN ISSUE" WITH THE HEADLIGHTS/WIRING. JUST A FEW HOURS LATER, THE NEW LOW-BEAM BULB I BOUGHT THUR. 11 JUNE, WENT OUT! NEVER GOT HIGHBEAM REPLACED BECAUSE PARTS DEPT. WAS OUT OF THEM. I WENT ONLINE & FOUND THE FOLLOWING SERIOUS PROBLEMS REPORTED ON LINK BELOW BY MANY CRV OWNERS -- LOTS OF OTHER 2006 CRVS EXPERIENCED RECURRING FAILURE! SEE: HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/HONDA/CR-V/HEADLIGHTS-PROBLEMS.PHP AND AFTER READING THE COMMENTS OF MANY OTHER HONDA CRV OWNERS ON THE ABOVE LINK, I SEE WHY THEY'RE OUT OF STOCK! THIS IS SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS--I'M AFRAID NOW TO DRIVE IT AT NIGHT! RECALL IS NEEDED FOR 2006 CR-V HEADLIGHT FAILURES. OTHER HONDAS EXPERIENCING MULTIPLE/ FREQUENT HEADLIGHT FAILURES WERE RECALLED, BUT NOT MY CR-V.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2006 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN RECALL REPAIR WAS PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE, BUT IT DID NOT REMEDY THE FAILURE.

THE DRIVER SUSTAINED WHIPLASH, HEAD, AND BACK PAINS, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A REPAIR SHOP AND AN AUTHORIZED DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER'S INVESTIGATOR DETERMINED THAT THE AIR BAGS DID NOT HAVE A FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER AND FAILURE MILEAGE WERE NOT AVAILABLE. MA 08/10/15 THE CONSUMER STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THAT THE AIR BAGS DON'T ALWAYS OPEN AT A 30 MILE FRONT END CRASH. UPDATED 1/30/2015 *JS

THE SUNROOF GLASS SUDDENLY EXPLODED WHILE I WAS TRAVELLING SOUTH ON I684 IN WESTCHESTER COUNTY NY. FORTUNATELY, THE SUN SHADE WAS CLOSED, AND WE WERE PROTECTED FROM THE SHATTERING GLASS.

2006 HONDA CR-V. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO DEALERSHIP NOT RESPONDING IN A TIMELY MANNER TO COMPLETE AIRBAGS RECALL NOTICE. *SMD THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE. *JB

AFTER FINDING OUT VIA THE OWNER'S SITE THAT MY AIRBAG HAD BEEN RECALLED I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER TO HAVE MY AIRBAG REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THE PARTS WERE NOT IN STOCK AND I WOULD RECEIVE A CALL TO UPDATE ME ABOUT AVAILABILITY BEFORE MY APPOINTMENT. I HAD TO CALL BACK FOR THE UPDATE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY DID NOT RECEIVE THE PARTS. NEARLY A MONTH LATER I CALLED BACK TO CHECK ON THE STATUS OF THE PARTS AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD NO ESTIMATE OF WHEN THEY WOULD ARRIVE. WHEN I EXPRESSED CONCERN AT THE DELAY I WAS TOLD THAT I SHOULDN'T COMPLAIN ABOUT WAITING A MONTH - THERE WERE CUSTOMERS WHO HAD BEEN WAITING MORE THAN THREE MONTHS. THE RECALL DATE IS ALMOST A YEAR OLD AND I HAVE STILL NOT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION. IT HAS NOW BEEN NEARLY TWO MONTHS THAT I HAVE BEEN WAITING TO HAVE MY AIRBAG REPLACED AFTER FINDING OUT ABOUT THE RECALL. I TRIED TO CONTACT THE HONDA COMPANY BUT THEY HAVE LIMITED CALL CENTER HOURS.

I WAS IN TRAFFIC AND REAR ENDED THE AUTO IN FRONT OF ME. ALTHOUGH MY CAR WAS DEEMED A TOTAL LOSS, AND THE FRONT END WAS DAMAGED INTO THE MOTOR COMPARTMENT, MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY...UPDATED 05/07/15 *BF

WITH EVER-INCREASING REGULARITY, ONE OR BOTH LOW-BEAM BULBS HAVE BEEN BURNING OUT. HAVE REPLACED ONE OR BOTH AT LEAST 5 TIMES, THE LAST TIME WAS BOTH BULBS, AFTER EXACTLY 34 DAYS SINCE PURCHASED NEW AT O'REILLY'S. OWNER HAS INSTALLED BULBS EVERY TIME. ALL PRECAUTIONS WERE TAKEN, INCLUDING NOT TOUCHING THE BASE WITH BARE SKIN, OR GLASS - WITH ANYTHING. THE LAST TIME - 34 DAYS PRIOR TO LAST FAILURE - OWNER APPLIED TERMINAL GREASE TO BULB TERMINALS, EVEN THOUGH THERE WAS PLENTY ALREADY IN PLACE. RESEARCHING THE INTERNET, OWNER NOTED STORIES OF CORROSION OR HEAT DAMAGE ON TERMINALS OF HEADLIGHT SWITCHES OF CERTAIN HONDA MODELS. OWNER DISASSEMBLED HIS STEERING COLUMN, AND FOUND NO EVIDENCE. OWNER ALSO NOTICED EARLY ON (2013) WHAT APPEARED TO BE FLICKERING OR PULSING OF HEADLIGHTS AT NIGHT. OWNER INSTALLED PERMANENT DIGITAL VOLTMETER TO BATTERY, AND NOTICED NO FLUCTUATIONS IN VOLTAGE, WITH A STEADY VOLTAGE OF 14.15V UNDER NORMAL NIGHTTIME CONDITIONS. THE LAST PAIR OF BULBS TO BURN OUT WERE EXAMINED. OWNER NOTED THAT THE COILED PORTION OF THE TUNGSTEN ELEMENT WAS COMPLETELY INTACT. THE WIRE JUST BEFORE OR JUST AFTER THE COILED PORTION HAD BEEN INTERRUPTED, AND A SMALL BALL OF MOLTEN TUNGSTEN WAS AT THE END OF THE SEVERED WIRE OPPOSITE THE COIL. ONE BULB HAD THE BALL ON WIRE JUST "UPSTREAM", THE OTHER BULB HAD BALL ON THE "DOWNSTREAM" SIDE OF ELEMENT. *TR

SENSE THE FALL/WINTER OF 2010 I HAVE CHANGE THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS ON MY VEHICLE APPROXIMATELY EIGHT TIMES. LATELY THE HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN GOING OUT BETWEEN THREE MONTHS AND THE SHORTEST TIME BEING 15 MINUTES. *TR

RIGHT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT NOT FUNCTIONING. BULB IS OK. *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT ON PASSENGER SIDE OF 2006 CR-V CONTINUES TO FAIL. BOTH HEADLIGHTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED BUT THE PASSENGER SIDE CONTINUES TO GO OUT MONTHLY. I HAVE COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER AND ASKED IF THERE IS A SOLUTION AND THEY ONLY SUGGEST REPLACING THE BULB AGAIN. THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE THAT HONDA SHOULD BE FORCED TO RESOLVE. *TR

ON THE RECALL EMAIL ALERT ENROLLMENT FORM, THERE IS NO HONDA OR SAAB FOR VEHICLE MAKE. HOW DO I SUBSCRIBE WHEN HONDA OR SAAB ARE NOT LISTED AS ONE OF THE MAKES? *TR

COMPLAINT IS THAT OWNER OF VEHICLE (THE ORIGINAL BUYER) HAS STILL NOT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE ON-GOING PROBLEMATIC TAKATA AIRBAGS. THE RECALL NOTICE HAS NOW BEEN EXPANDED TO ALL 2006 HONDA CRV'S, NOT JUST LOCATION SPECIFIC VEHICLES. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE BUT HAVE STILL NOT RECEIVED AN OFFICIAL RECALL FOR AIRBAGS. ALARMING AND FRUSTRATING, CONSIDERING PEOPLE HAVE BEEN MAIMED, PARALYZED, AND KILLED BY THESE VERY HONDA-INSTALLED TAKATA AIRBAGS. THEY SAY THEY ARE BEING "PRO-ACTIVE" WHICH IS AT BEST A JOKE. THEY NEED TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR DEFECTIVE AIRBAGS AND REPLACE THEM IN ALL HONDA VEHICLES WITH TAKATA AIRBAGS. HONDA AND TAKATA BOTH SUCK FOR NOT DOING THE RIGHT THING! *TR

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS CONSTANTLY NEED TO BE REPLACED. GOING THROUGH MY 3RD REPLACEMENT IN ABOUT A YEAR. USUALLY ONE GOES OUT AND THEN SHORTLY AFTER, THE OTHER ONE GOES OUT. I HAD THEM BOTH REPLACED ABOUT A MONTH AND HALF AGO. I WAS LEAVING WORK AND TURNED ON THE HEADLIGHTS AND WITHIN A SECOND, THEY BOTH WENT OUT. IT WAS DARK SO I HAD TO DRIVE HOME WITH MY HIGH BEAMS ON.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS FAIL EVERY FEW MONTHS, SOMETIMES WHILE DRIVING, NECESSITATING REPLACEMENT. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. MANY PEOPLE WITH THE 2006 CR-V HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THIS ISSUE TO HONDA, THE NHTSA AND ALL OVER THE INTERNET. WHY HASN'T HONDA ISSUED A RECALL? HONDA DID HAVE A RECALL FOR THE 2002-2004 CR-V FOR THE SAME ISSUE, BUT NOT FOR THE LATER YEARS, SAYING THAT THE HEADLIGHT SYSTEM WAS DIFFERENT IN NEWER MODELS. MAYBE, BUT CLEARLY THE DEFECT/HAZARD IS IN THE 2006 MODEL AS WELL. I HAVE REPORTED THIS ISSUE TO HONDA BEFORE AND DID SO AGAIN TODAY, AND IT IS AMERICAN HONDA CASE # N012014-12-2301127. I INSISTED THAT THEY TAKE A HARD LOOK AT COMPLAINTS ABOUT LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT FAILURE IN THE 2006 CR-V THAT HAVE BEEN FILED WITH HONDA AND THE NHTSA AND ISSUE A RECALL, AS THEY DID FOR THE OLDER MODELS. *TR

DRIVER SIDE HEADLAMP SUDDENLY WENT OUT. NEW BULBS ONLY LAST ABOUT A YEAR, AS I HAVE REPLACED THIS BULB 4 TIMES NOW

2006 HONDA CRV SINCE APRIL 2013 I HAVE GONE THROUGH 17 HEADLIGHT BULBS. THAT IS THE MOST I HAVE EVER HAD TO PUT IN ANY OF MY CARS. IF YOU TYPE IN TROUBLESHOOTING PROBLEMS WITH 2006 HEADLIGHTS YOU WILL SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY OTHER PEOPLE THAT ARE HAVING THIS VERY SAME ISSUE. I WOULD LIKE TO THINK THAT YOU AS A COMPANY WOULD WANT TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED OR AT LEAST LOOK AT GETTING A FIX. WHEN I TALKED WITH MY AREA DEALER HE DIDN'T SEEM TO THINK THAT THIS WAS A PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD PROFESSIONAL PEOPLE INSTALL THEM THAT KNOW BETTER THAN TO TOUCH THE BULB AND THEY HAVE GOTTEN TO THE POINT THAT THEY WON'T INSTALL THEM FOR ME ANYMORE. THEY ARE WORRIED THAT IT MAY CAME BACK TO THEM. I REALLY HOPE THAT YOU WILL AT LEAST GIVE ME A THOUGHT AS TO LOOK AT YOUR COMPUTER. *TR

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN GOING THROUGH HEADLIGHTS LIKE CRAZY FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS. APPROX. EVERY TWO MONTHS EITHER THE RIGHT OR LEFT SIDE GOES WITHOUT WARNING. MOST RECENTLY I DECIDED TO INSTALL HIGHER END BULBS THINKING THAT MAYBE THE LITTLE 8.00 DOLLAR ONES WERE THE PROBLEM. WRONG! I PUT A SET OF 50.00 BULBS IN EACH SIDE AT THE SAME TIME AND LESS THAN A MONTH LATER THE DRIVERS SIDE WENT OUT! I DRIVE ON VERY DARK RURAL ROADS AT NIGHT COMING HOME FROM WORK AND IF BOTH OF THESE LIGHTS FAIL AT THE SAME TIME I COULD BE SERIOUSLY HURT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED BRUISING ON THE CHEST AND MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT REQUIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THAT THE VIN WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V351000 (AIR BAGS). THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,000.

2006 HONDA CRV LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS KEEP FAILING ON PASSENGER SIDE. BULB REPLACEMENT DOES NOT FIX PROBLEM. DEALER HAS NOT IDENTIFIED PROBLEM. *TR

AFTER THE HEADLIGHT BULB HAS BEEN REPLACED NUMEROUS TIMES, THE RIGHT (PASSENGER SIDE) LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT NO LONGER LIGHTS. THE BULB HAS BEEN REPLACED WITH NEW, THE OLD BULB IS COMPLETELY INTACT (FILAMENT AS WELL AS GLASS- NO BURNED MARKS AT ALL), AND THE FUSES ARE NOT BLOWN. THE INTERNET IS FULL OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE, AND IN FACT HONDA HAS RECALLED 550,000 PREVIOUS PILOT AND CR-V MODELS FOR THIS FAILURE. SEEMS THE WIRING HARNESS IS TOO SHORT, AND DISCONNECTS THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS. THIS IS A CLEAR SAFETY ISSUE, AND IS NOT DUE TO OWNER ERROR. THANK YOU. *TR

MY LOW BEAM HEADLAMPS BURN OUT EVERY 5-7 WEEKS, ESPECIALLY THE DRIVER'S SIDE. I LIVE IN A RURAL AREA WITH CONSTANT ROAD HAZARDS SUCH AS DEER, WINDING UNLIT ROADS AND ICY PATCHES. WHEN THE HEADLAMP BLOWS IT CREATES A HUGE SAFETY HAZARD SINCE ONE LIGHT IS NOT ENOUGH TO SAFELY AVOID THE NUMEROUS HAZARDS I FACE ON A DAILY BASIS. I RETURN HOME FROM WORK AFTER DARK AND AM NEVER SURE IF MY LIGHTS WILL MAKE THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE COMMUTE. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FROM 2006 HONDA CRV OWNERS AND SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE. *JS

I RECEIVED FROM HONDA A SAFETY RECALL NOTICE TO HAVE MY FRONT AIRBAG INFLATOR REPLACED AT NO CHARGE. I TOOK IT TO AUTO NATION HONDA MIAMI LAKES 5925 NW 167 ST MIAMI, FL 33015. MY CAR WAS THERE FOR 6 HOURS, WHEN I PICKED IT UP THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY WEREN'T AUTHORIZED TO PERFORM THE RECALL BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE THE ORIGINAL PART. I'M SENDING THIS INFORMATION TO LET YOU KNOW IN CASE SOMETHING HAPPENS. I CAN'T WASTE MY TIME MISSING WORK TO HAVE THIS FIXED WHEN THE DEALER DOESN'T EVEN HAVE THE ORIGINAL PART. I'M PRETTY SURE THAT IF I HAD TO BUY THIS PIECE THEN THE DEALER WOULD HAVE IT, BUT BECAUSE IT'S FREE THEY DON'T CARE. *TR

DRIVER SIDE SUN VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP. I WENT TO HONDA OWNERS' WEBSITE AND PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM. THERE ARE HONDA CR-V OWNERS WHO HAD REPLACED THE SUN VISORS ON THEIR CARS MORE THAN THREE TIMES. THEY AND I THINK IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE DRIVERS DON'T HAVE PROTECTION FROM SUNLIGHT AND HAVE DIFFICULTY SEEING THE TRAFFIC LIGHTS WHEN THE SUN VISOR IS DOWN. *TR

HI, I AM FILING A COMPLAINT AGAINST HONDA MOTOR CORPORATION ON NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V-351. I LIVING IN LONG ISLAND NEW YORK. I LIVE ON A ISLAND SURROUNDED BY WATER AND IN HIGH HUMID CONDITIONS. IN THE SUMMER HIGH HUMID CONDITIONS EXIST IN ABOUT 4 MONTHS A YEAR HERE ON LONG ISLAND. BUT BECAUSE HONDA DOES NOT LIST MY LOCATION AS PART OF THE RECALL CAMPAIGN I AM NOT ENTITLED TO THE TAKATA AIR BAG REPLACEMENT. WHEN I CONTACT HONDA THEY CANNOT CONFIRM IF MY VEHICLE EVEN CONTAINS ONE OF THESE AFFECTED AIR BAGS BUT JUST THAT I AM NOT PART OF THE RECALL CAMPAIGN BECAUSE OF MY LOCATION. I THINK THIS UNFAIR THAT NHTSA IS EVEN ALLOWING HONDA TO MAKE THAT DECISION AND IS PUTTING MY FAMILY AT RISK IN ONE OF THESE VEHICLES. PLEASE PRESSURE HONDA TO MAKE THEM REPAIR ALL THE AFFECTED VEHICLES AND TO NOT PUT COST ABOVE PEOPLES SAFETY. THEY MADE THE ERROR WITH TAKATA AND WHY SHOULD WE PAY THE PRICE ON SAFETY. THANK YOU [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE CONTACT REPLACED THE BULBS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS BUT THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE.

I HAVE TWO OF THESE 2006 HONDA CR-V THE ONE THAT I PURCHASED AND REGISTERED IN FLORIDA WAS RECALLED AND REPAIRED BY THE CROWN HONDA CO. PINELLAS PARK, FL HOWEVER,THE ONE THAT I PURCHASED AND REGISTERED IN MICHIGAN; AND IS NOW USED IN FLORIDA NINE MONTHS OUT OF THE YEAR WAS NOT RECALLED AND THEY COULD NOT SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO MAKE THE REPAIR. THE RECALL OF JUST THOSE VEHICLES REGISTERED IN HOT AND HUMID STATES IS LUDICROUS. IT IS USUALLY JUST AS HOT AND HUMID IN MICH. DURING JUNE, JULY AND AUGUST. THERE ARE ALSO MILLIONS OF "SNOWBIRDS" WITH TANACKA AIRBAGS IN FLORIDA 75-80% OF THE YEAR. THEY NEED TO RECALL THESE VEHICLES. I DONT WANT TO DRIVE IT IN FLORIDA UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CONTACT SMELLED SMOKE EMITTING FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MERGED THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND EXITED HER CHILDREN FROM THE VEHICLE. SUDDENLY, THE CARGO AREA OF THE VEHICLE ENGULFED IN FLAMES. A POLICE AND FIRE REPORT WERE FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO FAULTY WIRING IN THE PASSENGER SIDE PANEL. IT WAS NOT YET DETERMINED IF THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 89,000.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT NIGHT WHEN I NOTICED IT WAS VERY DARK IN FRONT OF MY CAR. IT TURNED OUT BOTH OF MY LOWBEAMS HAD FAILED AT THE SAME TIME. THANK GOODNESS MY HIGHBEAMS KEPT WORKING, ALTHOUGH THAT MEANT SHINING A LIGHT IN ONCOMING DRIVERS' EYES. I THOUGHT THIS WAS JUST AN ODD PROBLEM THAT HAPPENED TO ME, BUT AFTER READING OTHER PEOPLE'S STORIES, I KNOW IT WAS PART OF A LARGER PROBLEM HONDA HAS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. YOU CANNOT BE DRIVING AT NIGHT AND HAVE BOTH OF YOUR HEADLIGHTS GO OUT. *TR

DRIVERS SIDE VISOR WILL NOT STAY UP, DROPPING DOWN TO BLOCK VISIBILITY. *TR

I PURCHASED MY 2006 CRV IN 2010. SINCE THAT TIME I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE MY DRIVER'S SIDE HEADLIGHT MULTIPLE TIMES. I DO NOT HAVE EXACT DATES, NOT REALIZING THERE WAS A PROBLEM UNTIL JULY 2014 WHEN I HAD MY MECHANIC DO A DIAGNOSTIC CHECK AND FOUND THERE TO BE A SHORT IN THE WIRING IN THE STEERING COLUMN. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS, I FOUND THAT ALMOST ONE MILLION CRV'S HAVE BEEN RECALLED SINCE 2002 FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I SPOKE TO HONDA'S CUSTOMER SERVICE/RESOLUTION CENTER AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT THERE IS NO RECALL ON MY VEHICLE SPECIFICALLY ALTHOUGH THE PROBLEM IS THE EXACT SAME ONE ALL OF THE RECALLED CRV'S HAVE. HONDA WOULD NOT ASSIST ME FURTHER AND TOLD ME THAT I NEED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM OUT OF POCKET. I HAVE ALREADY HAD BOTH HEADLIGHTS GO OUT SIMULTANEOUSLY WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IN THE DARK ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENED ON TWO OCCASIONS, ALTHOUGH IT IS COMMONLY THE DRIVERS SIDE BULB THAT BURNS OUT SEVERAL TIMES A YEAR. I HAVE BEEN PULLED OVER NOT KNOWING MY HEADLIGHT WAS OUT. THIS CONTINUES TO BE A PROBLEM AND I AM TOLD THE COST OF THE REPAIR WILL BE OVER $300. BASED ON THE NUMBER OF CRV'S WITH THE SAME DEFECT, I FEEL THAT HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS REPAIR AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR MY VEHICLE BEFORE I CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF LOSING MY HEADLIGHTS WHILE DRIVING IN THE DARK AGAIN. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

CAR PULLED IN FRONT OF ME ON HIGHWAY. NO TIME TO STOP NOR WAS I ABLE TO CHANGE LANES TO AVOID HIM. HIT AT BETWEEN 35 AND 40 MPH. NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED AND THE SEAT BELT ACTUALLY BROKE AND WAS HANGING LOOSE OUT SIDE OF CAR WHEN THEY REMOVED ME. ONLY MY BRACING WITH MY ARMS INTO STEERING WHEEL AND LEGS STOPPED ME FROM GOING THRU THE WINDSHIELD. *TR

THE VSA AND EXCLAMATION LIGHT CAME ON ONE DAY RIGHT WHEN I STARTED THE CAR AND HAS NEVER TURNED OFF. MY MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 44,000 MILES. TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALER AND CONFIRMED THE ABS MODULE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. PART+LABOR = $2400+ (EXCLUDING TAX). CALLED U.S. HONDA MANUFACTURER AND THEY WILL PAY 25% FOR THE PART. THAT STILL IS EXPENSIVE. I'M READING OFF ON THE WEB THAT COUNTRIES IN THE UK AND CANADA, THAT HONDA HAS PAID THE PART IN FULL. HERE IN THE U.S. THEY DON'T RECOGNIZE THIS AS A DEFECT. THIS PART IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. A LOCAL MECHANIC SAYS I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THIS WHERE IT SNOWS. IF THERE'S SAND, THE CAR WILL BE STUCK. ANOTHER MECHANIC SAID THERE COULD BE A SHORT. HONDA MANUFACTURER NEVER ADVISED ME OF THIS OR IF IT'S SAFE TO DRIVE OR SHOULD BE REPLACED RIGHT AWAY. COMING FROM FAMILY WHO BUYS MOSTLY HONDA'S, I WILL NOT BUY ANOTHER HONDA AGAIN. I WAS LOOKING AT A ODYSSEY, BUT SAW IT HAD A HUGE VSA ISSUE AS WELL. SOMETIMES I WONDER IF IT WAS AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE BECAUSE A FEW TIMES THE CRUISE CONTROL LIGHT TURNS ON ONCE THE CAR IS TURNED ON. HAVE NEVER USED CRUISE CONTROL. NEVER DRIVEN IN BAD WEATHER AND AVOID HEAVY RAIN. DRIVEN ONLY FEW TIMES PER WEEK AND CAREFULLY IN MOSTLY LOCAL SHORT DISTANCES. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND RESUME NORMAL OPERATION. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT ONLY THE IGNITION KEY BE PLACED ON THE KEY RING WHEN OPERATING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000. UPDATED 08/19/14*LJ

SUN VISOR FAILURE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT WILL NO LONGER FOLD UP OR FOLD AWAY. THIS CAUSES A VISUAL HAZARD AND SEEMS LIKE A DESIGN FLAW THAT HAS AFFECTED EVERY CR-V AND ACCORDS EVENTUALLY. TIMING SEEMS TO DEPEND ON THE # OF TIMES THE VISOR IS FLIPPED, & THATS WHY THE PASSENGER SIDE IS NOTED LESS OFTEN (FLIPPED LESS FREQUENTLY). THERE ARE MANY ONLINE VIDEO FIXES (YOUTUBE), BUT AS THERE ARE MANY ONLINE BLOGS REPORTING THIS PROBLEM & IS CLEARLY A VISUAL HAZARD I THINK THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY HONDA & NTSB. *TR

CAR WAS BEING DRIVEN WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET AND IT STALLED WHILE DRIVING AND REFUSED TO STAY RUNNING UNTIL IT SAT OVER NIGHT. NEXT MORNING BLOWBY IS COMING THROUGH DIPSTICK. CAR DID NOT OVER HEAT WHILE DRIVING. *TR

BOTH LOW HEADLIGHTS WENT OUT AT SAME TIME. THE DAY BEFORE THEY WORKED. USUALLY ONE GOES AT A TIME BUT THAT SHOULDN'T HAPPEN TWICE A YEAR. SHOULD IT? I HAVE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE WHERE I HAVE TO CHANGE THE BULBS SO MUCH. AND NOW BOTH! SOMETHING IS DEFINITELY WRONG ESPECIALLY WHEN I READ SO MANY OTHER OWNERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. I RESPECTFULLY REQUEST THAT HONDA ISSUE A RECALL AND SEE IF MY2006 IS HAVING SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER RECALLED MODEL YEARS. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE ABS AND STABILITY CONTROL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE TRIANGLE EXCLAMATION ICON ALSO ILLUMINATED.
