2008 Honda CR-V complaints

DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK WITHOUT PROMPTING. DOORS ALSO MAKE AWFUL NOISE WHEN THEY LOCK AND UNLOCK WHENEVER THEY WANT. THE KEY ALSO DOES NOT WORK TO UNLOCK THE DOOR ANY LONGER. I HAD TO ALWAYS LEAVE A WINDOW DOWN BECAUSE YOU COULD BE LOCKED OUT EVEN WITH THE KEYS IN YOUR HAND. I HAD THIS FIXED BACK IN APRIL 2013 AT MY OWN EXPENSE SINCE IT IS NOT UNDER RECALL AND NOW IT IS HAPPENING AGAIN. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE: YOU CAN BE UNABLE TO GET OUT OF THE CAR IN CASE OF AN EMERGENCY. ALSO, WITH THE DOORS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING IT CREATES A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD FOR CHILDREN RIDING IN THE CAR. *TR

AFTER PUTTING IN GEAR AND STARTING OUT, LEFT REAR DOOR LOCK WILL LOCK THEN UNLOCK ITSELF AND THEN STAY UNLOCKED. IT ALSO UNLOCKS ITSELF AFTER PARKING AND LOCKING THE CAR. UNSAFE FOR PASSENGERS AND NO SECURITY WHEN PARKED. *TR

THIS IS MY THIRD COMPLAINT FILED WITH NHTSA REGARDING 6 INSTANCES OF UNWANTED ACCELERATION WHEN BRAKING. SINCE MY LAST COMPLAINT I CONTACTED MY DEALER, BOARDWALK HONDA OF 6807 TILTON ROAD, EGG HARBOR TOWNSHIP, NEW JERSEY 609.428.4422. THE DEALER MADE A CONTACT WITH HONDA CORPORATE AND AN APPOINTMENT WITH A HONDA REPRESENTATIVE TO INSPECT MY VEHICLE WAS SET. ON JAN. 27, 2014 THEY HAD MY VEHICLE FOR A FULL DAY. BECAUSE THE UNWANTED ACCELERATION DID NOT OCCUR ON THAT DATE, I WAS GIVEN A REPORT THAT NOTHING IS WRONG WITH THE CR-V. I HAD EXPLAINED THAT IT ONLY OCCURRED 6 TIMES OVER A 6 MONTH PERIOD AND IT WAS NOT REASONABLE TO EXPECT IT TO OCCUR ON A SPECIFIC DATE DURING THE INSPECTION. I HEARD THAT IT COULD BE THE POWER CONTROL MODULE (PCM), BUT APPARENTLY HONDA DOES NOT WANT TO REPLACE IT AS A SAFETY ISSUE. I NEED HELP WITH THIS PROBLEM BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH, THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR UNLOCKED INDEPENDENTLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,000. UPDATED 03/12/14*LJ THE VEHICLE WAS FIXED. THE DEALER PAID FOR THE PART, AND THE CONSUMER PAID FOR THE LABOR. UPDATED 03/20/14

MY 2008 HONDA CR-V, PURCHASED NEW BY ME, HAS AN UNWANTED ACCELERATION PROBLEM WHEN BRAKING. I FILED A PREVIOUS COMPLAINT WITH YOUR OFFICE AND NEVER RECEIVED A REPLY. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND THEY STATED I WILL BE CONTACTED BY THEIR REPRESENTATIVE. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY PROBLEM AND OTHER OWNERS HAVE LISTED IDENTICAL PROBLEMS ON THE INTERNET. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST 6 TIMES. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS THE TIRE PRESSURE, VSA AND ABS WARNING LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE REAR DRIVER AND PASSENGER'S SIDE WHEEL SENSORS WERE REPLACED. AFTER THE REPAIR THE FAILURE STILL RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURE WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,000.

REAR PASSANGER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILED AT 45K FRONT PASSANGER DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILED AT 68K. *TR

FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK. PROBLEM IS RELATED TO THE DOOR ACTUATOR. CAR FOB OR INTERNAL DOOR CONTROLS WILL NOT UNLOCK FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. CONCERN IS THAT A PASSENGER IN FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WILL NOT BE ABLE TO QUICKLY EXIT THE CAR IF REQUIRED IN AN EMERGENCY WITHOUT CLIMBING ACROSS TO ANOTHER DOOR. ISSUE OCCURS AT ALL SPEEDS OR WHEN CAR IS IN THE PARK POSITION. *TR

PASSAGE DOOR LOCK AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCK NO MATTER AT STOP OR DRIVING. PAID MONEY TO FIX AND NOW THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK BAD. *TR

AT 16800 MILES - VEHICLE MAKES SQUEALING NOISE TURNING RIGHT OR LEFT. DEALER FOUND BACKING PLATE SCRAPING AND WHEEL NUT MISSING. BENT BACKING PLATE SO IT WOULD NOT SCRAPE AND REPLACED WHEEL NUT. ALIGNMENT ISSUES CONTINUE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL GETS HOT AFTER SHORT DRIVE AND HAS BURNING SMELL - MILEAGE NOW 25000. THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM IS REPORTED 1000'S OF TIMES BY OWNERS OF HONDA CRVS. WHEN WILL HONDA ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS? *TR

I WAS READY TO LEAVE WORK WHEN I PRESSED THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON MY KEY REMOTE I NOTICED THE CAR DIDN'T UNLOCK. I TRIED SEVERAL MORE TIMES AND STILL NOTHING. I DECIDED TO TRY AND UNLOCK THE CAR MANUALLY WITH THE KEY AND REALIZED THAT WASN'T WORKING EITHER ALL COULD DO AT THAT POINT WAS CALL A LOCKSMITH WHO AFTER SEVERAL TRIES WAS ABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVER DOOR WHICH IN TURN ALLOWED THE REST OF THE DOORS TO UNLOCK. I CALLED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD NEVER HEARD OF THE CAR NOT BEING ABLE TO OPEN MANUALLY AND OFFERED NO OTHER SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM. AFTER LOOKING ONLINE I NOTICED THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR HONDA CRV'S 2007 AND NEWER. THERE IS AN ISSUE OF THE DOOR ACTUATORS. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A LIFE THREATENING DEFECT AS THE DOORS OPEN OR LOCK ON THEIR OWN. *TR

MY REAR DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT LOCK. I TOOK MY CR-V INTO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID MY ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I HAD JUST BOUGHT THE CAR, USED, 3 MONTHS PREVIOUSLY. I'VE READ ONLINE THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM! THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED! RECENTLY (11/27/13) MY DOORS ARE NOW STARTING TO UNLOCK AND LOCK ON THEIR OWN AS WELL! I READ THAT THIS MIGHT BE DUE TO OTHER ACTUATIORS NEEDING TO BE REPLACED! I'VE ALWAYS HAD A HONDA BUT IF THIS PROBLEM ISN'T RESOLVED I WILL NEVER AGAIN OWN A HONDA!!! RECALL NOW!!! *TR

PASSENGER FRONT DOOR DOES NOT STAY LOCK EVEN AT HIGH SPEEDS. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION WHERE THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT THE DOOR ACTUATOR HAD FAILED DUE TO DEFECTIVE MATERIAL. THE DOOR ACTUATOR WAS REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 94,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 98,000.

THE AUTOMATIC DOOR LOCKS DO NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY. THEY LOCK AND UNLOCK SEVERAL TIMES WHILE I AM DRIVING THE VEHICLE. WHEN I PARK, I AM UNABLE TO LOCK MY CAR SECURELY. I ALSO HAVE DIFFICULTY UNLOCKING THE DOORS AT TIMES. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOOR LOCKS ERRONEOUSLY ENGAGED AND DISENGAGED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS FOUND THAT THE DOOR ACTUATORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 87,000.

I WAS LEAVING THE GROCERY STORE AND USED MY KEY FOB TO UNLOCK THE CAR DOORS. I TRIED TO LIFT THE REAR DOOR (HATCH-BACK) TO LOAD GROCERIES. THE DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN. I TESTED ALL MY DOORS AND FOUND THAT MY FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT UNLOCK EITHER USING THE KEY FOB. I TRIED BOTH DOORS MULTIPLE TIMES WITHOUT ANY LUCK. ONCE INSIDE THE CAR (THROUGH THE DRIVER'S DOOR) I TRIED TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. I COULDN'T GET IT UNLOCKED. THE LOCK WAS STUCK FAST. I COULD NOT ENTER OR EXIT OUT THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. (I DID NOT CLIMB OVER THE SEATS TO TRY AND EXIT OUT THE BACK HATCH DOOR.) THIS PRESENTS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR OBVIOUS REASONS. I TRIED DAILY OVER THE NEXT WEEK TO ENTER OR EXIT OUT THOSE 2 DOORS. I COULDN'T BUDGE EITHER ONE. I TOOK IT TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP. THE TECHNICIAN WAS ABLE TO GET THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND THE REAR DOOR TO OPEN. I WAS TOLD THE ACTUATOR ON THE FRONT DOOR WAS GOING OUT. THE REAR DOOR WAS A DIFFERENT PROBLEM. IT WILL COST ME $450 TO FIX THE TWO PARTS. *TR

IT STARTED WITH THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR LOCK. IT MAKES A WEIRD NOISE AND WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK CORRECTLY. SOMETIMES LOCKS AND UNLOCKS ON IT'S OWN. NOW AT LEAST 3 OF THE 4 DOORS ARE DOING THE SAME THING. *TR

PRE-MATURE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR FAILURE. ACTUATOR FAILS CAUSING THE DOOR LOCKS TO NOT UNLOCK ELECTRONICALLY AS A RESULT OF FAILED ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS. *TR

I CAN NO LONGER LOCK THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. IT AUTOMATICALLY UNLOCKS ON ITS OWN. *TR

THE PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK STARTING LOCKING AND UNLOCKING ERRATICALLY. IT HAS STEADILY BECOME WORSE AND NOW WILL NOT LOCK UNLESS YOU CLICK THE DOOR LOCKER OVER AND OVER AND SOMETIMES WILL NOT LOCK AT ALL. THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THAT I HAVE A PROBLEM EVERY TIME I TAKE THE CAR IN TO HAVE IT SERVICED ALONG WITH AN AMOUNT OF $230 TO FIX IT. I HAVE READ HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR MODEL AND MANY, MANY OTHER YEAR MODELS. CLEARLY THIS IS A PROBLEM!! I HOPE THAT HONDA WILL STEP UP AND RECALL THIS BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT ALTHOUGH I DID READ ABOUT CHILDREN BEING LOCKED IN THE CAR AFTER BEING BUCKLED IN AND THE PARENT WENT TO GET IN THE CAR AND COULDN'T. I ALSO FOUND A CLASS ACTION SUIT THAT HAS BEEN FILED AGAINST THEM. IT IS TIME FOR HONDA TO MAKE A RECALL!! *TR

THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED TWICE. THE FIRST TIME THE ENGINE SPEED INCREASED WITH THE BRAKES BEING APPLIED. I CHECKED FOR AN OBSTRUCTION OF A FLOOR MAT AND THERE WAS NO OBSTRUCTION. THE MOST RECENT TIME WAS YESTERDAY (OCT. 17, 2013) AND AGAIN THE CAR ACCELERATED WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKE. THIS COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I WILL VISIT HONDA AND ADVISE THE SERVICE MANAGER. *TR

THE DOOR LOCK ON THE PASSENGER SIDE DOSE THE OPPOSITE OF YOUR ACTION. IF YOU LOCK YOUR CAR IT UNLOCKS AND VISA VERSA SO THE ONE DOOR DOESN'T LOCK. *TR

FOR A WHILE, THE DOOR LOCK SYSTEM LOCKS AND UNLOCK CONTINUOUSLY WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT WAS TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG. THIS MORNING, THE CAR CANNOT BE UNLOCKED WITH THE KEY OR THE REMOTE. WHEN I PUSH THE LOCK OR UNLOCK BUTTON, A GRINDING NOISE CAN BE HEARD COMING FROM THE DRIVER DOOR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR WOULD NOT LOCK AND ALL THE REMAINING DOORS WOULD UNLOCK INDEPENDENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCKS ITSELF IMMEDIATELY WHEN TRYING TO UNLOCK. A PASSENGER WOULD BE UNABLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE UNLESS THEY EXIT THE DRIVER SIDE OR ONE OF THE REAR DOORS. I NOTICE THIS PROBLEM WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED AT 0 MPH AND IN THE PARK POSITION. *TR

PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LOCK WILL NOT STAY UNLOCKED. EITHER MANUALLY UNLOCKED OR AUTOMATIC SUCH AS WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS PUT IN PARK POSITION. THIS CAUSES A POTENTIAL SAFETY PROBLEM FOR ANY PASSENGER SITTING IN THE PASSENGER LOCATION. THEY CANNOT CONVENIENTLY EXIT THE VEHICLE AT ANY TIME. *TR

THE PASSENGER DOOR LOCKS AS SOON AS IT IS UNLOCKED. IT WILL NOT STAY UNLOCKED AT ALL. *TR

THE FIRST INCIDENT INVOLVED THE BACK GATE WHICH WOULD NOT UNLOCK WITH THE KEY FOB. I TRIED LOCKING/UNLOCKING FROM THE DRIVER'S INTERIOR DOOR CONTROLS AND ALSO WITH THE KEY FOB. ATTEMPTS WERE MADE WITH THE CAR RUNNING, IGNITION TURNED TO ACCESSORY, AND ALSO WITH THE CAR TURNED OFF. NOTHING CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. THIS PERSISTED INTO THE NEXT DAY WHEN IT STARTED WORKING WITHOUT ANY PARTICULAR INTERVENTION BEYOND MY PREVIOUS ATTEMPTS. THE PROBLEM REAPPEARED A FEW DAYS LATER, ONLY NOW IT IS THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR. I LOCK THE CAR WITH THE KEY FOB, BUT THE PASSENGER DOOR REMAINS UNLOCKED. THE SAME IS TRUE WHEN ATTEMPTING TO LOCK USING THE SWITCH ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR. LIKE OTHERS WHO HAVE POSTED ON THIS SITE, THIS CAR ALSO ATTEMPTS TO LOCK/UNLOCK AT UNEXPECTED TIMES WELL ABOVE THE USUAL SPEED WHERE THE AUTOMATIC LOCK NORMALLY OPERATES. THIS IS A SAFETY AND SECURITY RISK. MY YOUNG PASSENGERS ARE AT RISK IF THE LOCKS DISENGAGE. MY PROPERTY IS NOT SECURE IF THE LOCKS ARE NOT RELIABLE. MY PERSONAL SAFETY IS AT RISK IF MY ALARM SYSTEM FAILS TO SECURE ALL DOORS. IT IS UNSETTLING TO CONSIDER THE CONSEQUENCE OF BEING UNEXPECTEDLY TRAPPED INSIDE THE CAR. IT IS EQUALLY TROUBLESOME TO DRIVE THE CAR NOT KNOWING IF MY CHILDREN AND I MAY BECOME LOCKED OUT IN THE DARK, IN A PARKING DECK, OR IN A REMOTE LOCATION DURING TRAVEL. REPAIRING EACH LOCK AS IT FAILS IS A RISKY GAMBLE, BUT I CANNOT AFFORD TO REPLACE ACTUATORS (APPROX $250 X 5 DOORS) ON EVERY DOOR AS A PREEMPTIVE REPAIR, EITHER. *TR

THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD TO CLIMB INTO THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE TO EXIT THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR INSPECTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DOORS LOCKED AND UNLOCKED INDEPENDENTLY AND INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000. ...UPDATED 11-18-13 *BF

I BOUGHT MY CAR BRAND NEW IN NOVEMBER 2007. IT IS A 2008 HONDA CR-V 5DR 2WD EX. A COUPLE/FEW YEARS BACK, THE LOCKS STARTED ACTING UP. IT WAS ALWAYS THE SAME TWO, THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND THE REAR DOOR. I WOULD PUSH THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON MY KEY, AND THE OTHER 3 DOORS WOULD UNLOCK, BUT THOSE 2 WOULD NOT. I TRIED USING THE UNLOCK/LOCK BUTTONS ON THE DRIVER'S DOOR, AND AFTER HITTING THE LOCK BUTTON FIRST AND THEN UNLOCK SEVERAL TIMES, IT WOULD WORK AND THOSE 2 DOORS WOULD EVENTUALLY UNLOCK. AND THEN SOMETIMES ALL OF A SUDDEN THEY WOULD START UNLOCKING AGAIN USING THE KEY. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ANNOYANCE FOR THE PAST 2-3 YEARS. I CAN'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE OR MILEAGE WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED. PROBABLY ABOUT A YEAR AGO, THEY FINALLY STOPPED COMPLETELY. THEY WILL NOT UNLOCK AT ALL USING THE KEY OR THE DRIVER'S DOOR. THE PASSENGER ONE, OF COURSE, I CAN MANUALLY UNLOCK FROM THE INSIDE IF NEEDED. BUT THE REAR I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO WAY OF OPENING THAT DOOR. COMPLETELY RIDICULOUS!!! IT HAS BEEN A COMPLETE PAIN TO NOT HAVE THAT STORAGE AREA. I HAVE HAD TO LOWER THE BACK SEATS TO PUT ANYTHING IN THERE. IT ALSO CAUSED ME TO INCUR DAMAGE TO MY CAR THIS YEAR. I HAD A FLAT AND NEEDED THE SPARE TIRE. WELL, I HAD TO CLIMB THROUGH THE DOORS INTO THE BACK WHERE MY SPARE WAS, ONLY TO REALIZE YOU COULDN'T GET TO THE SPARE BECAUSE THE REAR DOOR WAS IN THE WAY. SO I HAD TO RIP THE BACK FLAP TO GET TO THE TIRE. SO THAT WILL COST ME MONEY TO FIX. THIS IS IN ADDITION TO THE DEALER TELLING ME EACH A

WHILE DRIVING I SAW ALL MY DOOR GETTING UNLOCKED BY ITSELF. SINCE THAN I HAVE THIS ISSUE. ALL DOOR LOCKS RANDOMLY LOCK/UNLOCK AND WITH THE KIDS ON BACK THIS IS NOT SAFE. I CALLED AMERICAN HONDA BUT FLATLY TOLD THEY DON'T KNOW ANY ISSUE AND SINCE IT IS OVER 36000 MILE, NO HELP. *TR

DRIVER SIDE DOOR GETTING LOCKED AND UNLOCKED AUTOMATICALLY, AFTER FEW DAYS I NOTICED THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE PASSENGER DOOR AS WELL. BOTH DOOR LOCKS MAKING NOISE AND UNLOCK AND LOCK AUTOMATICALLY. IF I LOCK DRIVER SIDE DOOR, PASSENGER DOOR GETS UNLOCKED. NOT RESPONDING TO REMOTE FOB. NOW, I AM MANAGING THE LOCKS BY MANUALLY LOCKING DRIVER SIDE DOOR. SPOKE TO HONDA DEALER AND THEY SAID IT IS A PROBLEM WITH BOTH ACTUATOR IN BOTH DOORS AND IT WOULD COST ME 270 + 250 (520 DOLLARS). PART IS ACTUALLY 70 DOLLAR BUT LABOR IS 200 DOLLAR FOR DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND 180 DOLLAR FOR PASSENGER SIDE DOOR. I SEE SIMILAR COMPLAINTS IN THE WEB FOR 2007 AND 2008 HONDA CR-VS . IT IS SOMETHING MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH THESE MODELS. I AM FEELING UNSAFE EVERYDAY I DRIVE. I MIGHT HAVE TO SPEND 500 BUCKS TO FIX THIS ISSUE. THE FACT THAT WORRYING ME MORE IS, MANY VEHICLE OWNERS COMPLAINED THAT PROBLEM WILL BE REPEATED AFTER SOMETIME AND AGAIN I HAVE TO SPEND 500 DOLLARS. *JS

MY CAR'S REAR DOOR LOCK IS MALFUNCTIONING. WHEN I DRIVE, THE DOOR LOCKS AND UNLOCKS BY ITSELF REPETITIVELY. WHEN I GET OUT OF THE CAR AND TRY TO LOCK IT, THAT DOOR UNLOCKS BY ITSELF. EVEN IF I AM DRIVING, THE PASSENGER CAN OPEN THE DOOR BUT THE CAR LIGHT WONT LIGHT UP AND MY DASHBOARD WONT TELL ME THAT THE DOOR IS OPEN. I FOUND ONLINE THAT THIS IS A MASS PROBLEM WITH COUNTLESS OTHER CARS MADE AROUND THE SAME YEAR. I ATTEMPTED TO CALL THE DEALER BUT THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING FOR ME. *JS

STARTED EXPERIENCING DOOR LOCK FAILURE A FEW MONTHS AGO. (~56,000 MILES) I NOTICED DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR LOCK IS NOT STAYING LOCKED, CAR LOCKS CONTINUALLY TRY TO LOCK THEMSELVES WHEN ACCELERATING FROM 5-10 MPH. DOOR LOCKS KEEP ATTEMPTING TO LOCK, DRIVING ME CRAZY. NOT TO MENTION A BIG SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

MY LOCKS WOULD LOCK AND UNLOCK WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ME INITIATING IT. AT A LATER DATE, I WAS LOCKED OUT OF MY CAR AND NEITHER THE REMOTE NOR THE ACTUAL LOCK ON MY DOOR WOULD UNLOCK FOR ME TO GET IN THE CAR. NOW MY LOCKS ARE MAKING A REALLY LOUD NOISE WHEN I TRY TO LOCK AND/OR UNLOCK THE CAR. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE FRONT DOOR LOCK FAILED. THE DOOR COULD NOT BE OPENED ELECTRONICALLY OR MANUALLY. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE DOOR ACTUATOR FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 68,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

THE DOOR LOCKS ON THE DRIVER SIDE WON'T OPEN AND I HAD PROBLEMS GETTING OUT OF THE CAR. THEN WHEN THE CAR WAS ALL LOCKED, I COULDN'T OPEN THE CAR, EVEN WITH THE ACTUAL KEY INSIDE. IT TOOK LEAVING THE CAR AND LETTING IT REST TO FINALLY GET INSIDE THE CAR WITH THE KEY. WHILE DRIVING THE LOCKS KEPT OPENING AND LOCKING INSIDE THE CAR. NOT VERY SAFE. *TR

DOORS WILL UNLOCK BY THEMSELVES WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND WHILE PARKED AND SECURED. *TR

THE CAR WAS PARKED AND MY FRIEND WAS ABLE TO GET INTO THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT WITHOUT SETTING OFF THE ALARM. I GOT INTO THE CAR AND NOTICED THAT EVEN AFTER LOCKING THE DOORS. THE FRONT PASSENGER LOCK WOULD SLOWLY OPEN AND DOES NOT STAY LATCHED. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND BY THE AMOUNT OF OTHER COMPLAINTS IS NOT UNIQUE TO MYSELF. OF COURSE IT HAPPENED THE MONTH AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE FRONT PASSENGER'S SIDE DOOR UNLOCKED AND LOCKED WITHOUT MANUAL FORCE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSIS WHERE IT WAS STATED THAT THE ACTUATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000...UPDATED 11-18-13 *BF

ON 08/26/2013 THE FRONT RIGHT DOOR ON MY 2008 HONDA CR-V STARTED TO UNLOCK ITSELF EVEN WHEN IN MOTION. IT WOULD LOCK AND THEN UNLOCK ITSELF AGAIN. I HAD THE HONDA DEALER IN OLD BRIDGE, NJ FIX THE ISSUE A FEW DAYS LATER. THEN ON 09/11/2013 ALL OF A SUDDEN ALL DOORS OF THE VEHICLE STARTED TO LOCK THEMSELVES IMMEDIATELY AFTER UNLOCKING. MANY TIMES DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK AT ALL MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO GET INTO OR OUT OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

THE POWER DOOR LOCK ON THE FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT STAY LOCKED. AS SOON AS YOU LOCK IT MANUALLY OR WITH THE KEY FOB, IT WILL SLOWLY UNLOCK ITSELF. THIS OCCURS IF THE CAR IS PARKED OR IN MOTION. IT WILL LOCK ITSELF IF THE AUTO ACCELERATES OVER 10MPH, BUT THEN WILL AGAIN SLOWLY UNLOCK SECONDS LATER AND WILL STAY IN THE UNLOCK POSITION. THIS IN TURN DEFEATS THE SECURITY SYSTEM, MAKING IT INEFFECTIVE, ALLOWING THE PASSENGER DOOR TO BE OPENED WITHOUT SETTING OFF THE ALARM. I ATTEMPTED TO RESET THE LOCKING MECHANISM AS STATED IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL BUT IT DOES NOT FIX THE ISSUE.

THE DOOR ACTUATOR ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE STARTED TO ACT UP. AT FIRST WHEN LOCKING THE DOOR, THE DOOR SLOWLY UNLOCK ITSELF, BUT OVER THE PERIOD OF COUPLE OF DAYS THE DOOR STARTED TO MAKE JAMMING MECHANISM NOISE (CLICK, CLICK, CLICK...). NOW EVERY TIME WHEN I DRIVE, THE CAR DOORS MECHANISM DOES NOT SENSE THAT THE DOOR IS LOCKED, AND ALWAYS GET JAMMED TRYING TO LOCK THE DOOR (EVEN THOUGH THE DOORS ALREADY IS LOCKED).

THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS ON THREE OF MY DOORS BEGAN UNLOCKING WITHIN A WEEK OF THE FIRST OCCURRENCE. WHEN THE ALARM IS SET, THE DOORS INITIALLY LOCK, THEN INSTANTANEOUSLY UNLOCK FAILING TO KEEP THE VEHICLE SECURE. WHILE DRIVING ON STREETS, THE DOOR LOCKS ENGAGE AND DISENGAGE AT EVERY STOP. *JB

I PARKED THE CAR IN MY GARAGE, 6 DAYS LATER, I COULD NOT OPEN THE DOORS USING REMOTE CONTROL KEY, THEN I OPENED THE DRIVE SIDE DOOR MECHANICALLY, AND PRESSED THE DOOR-CONTROL BUTTON, NO RESPONSE, AND PRESSED THE HORN, NO RESPONSE. PUT THE KEY TO TRY TO START THE CAR, NO RESPONSE (EVEN NO NOISE). I CHECKED AND FOUND IG MAIN FUSE WAS BLOWN OUT (NOT 100% SURE, IT IS DIFFICULT TO TAKE OUT THE FUSE DUE TO OVER TIGHTENED SCREW) USING A CHARGER TO CHARGE BATTERY, AND FOUND POWDER WINDOW HAS RESPONSE, BUT DOORS DID NOT RESPONSE, PUT THE KEY TO START, SOME LIGHTS CAME ON IN THE PANEL, BUT NOT SOUND AT ALL. HOW THE IG FUSE WAS BLOWN OUT DURING THE PARKING, IT MUST BE HAPPEN WHEN I PULLED OUT MY KEY 6 DAYS AGO WHEN I PARKED MY CAR. CHECK WITH ALL FRIENDS AND GOOGLE SEARCH, NO CLUE WHAT HAPPEN! I WILL ASK THE CAR TO BE TOWED A SHOP TO CHECK BY A TECHNICIAN. I NEVER DO ANYTHING TO CHANGE CAR WRING, NEVER INSTALL ANYTHING INTO THE CAR. *JB

CANNOT UNLOCK THE DOORS. WHEN I USE THE KEY FOB OR THE UNLOCK SWITCH ON THE DOOR, DOORS UNLOCK AND INSTANTLY RE-LOCK THEMSELVES. IN ORDER TO ENTER OR EXIT THE VEHICLE I NEED TO USE TWO HANDS AND SIMULTANEOUSLY UNLOCK THE DOOR AND PULL THE DOOR HANDLE. I NEED TWO PEOPLE TO OPEN THE TAIL GATE. *JS

THE DOOR LOCKS ON MY 2008 HONDA CR-V ARE LOCKING CONSTANTLY AND DO NOT ALLOW ME TO UNLOCK THE CAR TO GET IN OR OUT OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT DOOR UNLOCKED ITSELF. SINCE THEN IT WENT FROM PERIODICALLY LOCKING TO NOW IT WILL NOT STAY LOCKED AT ALL. DRIVER SIDE REAR DOOR HAS DONE THIS ONLY A COUPLE OF TIMES. *TT
