2013 Honda CR-V complaints

UPON LIGHT ACCELERATION ON A CITY STREET MY CAR VIBRATES QUITE STRONGLY AND FEELS AS THOUGH THE CAR IS GOING TO STALL. THIS ISSUE SEEMS TO ONLY HAPPEN AT LOW SPEEDS (10-35MPH). I HAVE CONTACTED THE LOCAL HONDA DEALER WITH MY VIN# AND THEY DENY ANY ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I HAVE FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND HOW HONDA IS UNWILLING TO ADDRESS OR FIX THE ISSUE. I HOPE HONDA ISSUE A RECALL SOON BECAUSE THIS AMOUNT OF VIBRATION MAKES ME FEEL AS IF THERE IS A LOT OF MECHANICAL WEAR HAPPENING WITH EVERY ACCELERATION AND THAT THE CAR COULD FAIL AT ANY MOMENT.

HEAVY VIBRATION IN GREAR WHEN COME TO A STOP ....FEELING VIBRATION ON THE SEAT...TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP SAY THEY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM BUT THER NO FIX FROM HONDA AT THIS TIME....DEALER STATE LOT OF CUSTOMER HAVE THE SAM COMPLAIN BUT NOTHING THEY CAN DO AT THIS TIME.....

THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AT LOW SPEEDS AND THE STEERING INDICATOR LIGHT WOULD COME ON FOR SHORT PERIODS OF TIME. THIS NEARLY RESULTED IN ACCIDENTS ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THE OWNER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER, BUT THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT HE COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE TECHNICIAN THEN ADVISED THE OWNER TO CONTINUE DRIVING THE VEHICLE TO SEE IF THE PROBLEM WOULD RECUR. THE OWNER FOUND THIS ADVICE TO BE UNACCEPTABLE AND QUESTIONED WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IF THE PROBLEM RECURRED. THE TECHNICIAN THEN ELEVATED THE ISSUE TO THE MANAGER, WHO WAS ABLE TO ISOLATE A TROUBLE CODE. THE OWNER WAS INFORMED THAT NO ONE AT THE DEALERSHIP KNEW WHAT THE TROUBLE CODE MEANT, AND THAT THE DEALER WOULD HAVE TO CONSULT WITH HONDA CORPORATE FOR GUIDANCE. THE OWNER WAS THEN INFORMED THAT HONDA CORPORATE RECOMMENDED THE REPLACEMENT OF THE POWER STEERING RACK. THIS REPAIR WAS PERFORMED AT SIGNIFICANT COST TO THE OWNER. NEITHER THE TROUBLESHOOTING PROCESS NOR THE ASSOCIATED TROUBLE CODE WERE RECORDED ON THE WORK DOCUMENTATION PRESENTED TO THE OWNER. THE VEHICLE STEERING FELT STIFF AFTERWARDS, THEN TWICE EXHIBITED A FAILURE MODE IN WHICH THE STEERING INDICATOR LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE STEERING SYSTEM APPEARED TO HIT A PREMATURE HARD STOP PART WAY INTO A LOW-SPEED TURN, FORCING THE VEHICLE WIDE. BOTH OF THESE INCIDENTS NEARLY RESULTED IN ACCIDENTS, BUT THE OWNER QUICKLY SPUN THE STEERING WHEEL TOWARDS CENTER, THEN BACK INTO THE DIRECTION OF THE TURN. THE PROCESS OF RE

AWD LIGHT WENT ON FOR TWO DAYS. LIGHT THEN STAYED OFF. TOOK IT TO HONDA, THEY WANT TO REPLACE SOLENOID ASSEMBLY.

I HAVE HUM INSTALLED. I KEEP GETTING "ISSUES WITH BATTERY" . YOUR CAR MAY NOT START DUE TO LOSS OF CHARGE IN BATTERY. I AM DISABLED AND CANNOT AFFORD FOR THIS TO HAPPEN OUT OF THE CLEAR BLUE. THANK YOU I REALLY HAVE NO IDEA OF WHEN THIS OCURRED, BUT DID HAVE NEW BATTERY INSTALLED FOR $ 169.00 AT DEALERSHIP AND STILL GETTING WARNING FROM HUM.

I AM HOPING, THAT BY BRINGING THIS TO YOUR ATTENTION, SOMETHING CAN BE DONE TO FIX THE POOR HEADLIGHTS ON HONDA CRVS.. WE HAVE HAD MANY 1990-1991 HONDA ACCORDS THAT DIDN'T SEEM TO HAVE AN ISSUE WITH HEADLIGHTS. WE HAVE A 2006 HONDA CRV, AND NOW OWN A 2013 HONDA CRV. THE HEADLIGHT LAMPS WOULD BURN OUT OFTEN ON THE 2006 CRV FIGURING THE AGE AND ABOUT 250,000. BUT ON CHECKING OUT POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS FOR OUR 2013 LACK OF GOOD LIGHTING AT NIGHT, I FOUND THESE BLOGS ON THE LINKS BELOW. SO THIS IS NOT A NEW PROBLEM AND THE SAFETY ISSUE IS A BIG ONE! DO WE NEED AN ACCIDENT OR WORSE YET A DEATH TO GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF? THE 2013 HEADLIGHTS DON'T GO OUT FAR ENOUGH ON LOW BEAM AND I DON'T USE HIGH BEAM OFTEN AS IT ONLY SHOWS THE REFLECTOR LIGHTS AND THE ROAD IS DARK IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE! WE LIVE IN DEER COUNTRY. AND GOD FORBID A HUMAN SHOULD BE IN THE ROAD AND NOT SEEN AS A RESULT OF HIGH BEAMS OR LOW BEAMS NOT WORKING PROPERLY. UNDERSTAND THAT WHERE I LIVE IT CAN GET DARK AT 5.00 P.M. AT NIGHT DURING THE WINTER. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND ATTENTION ON THIS.

ON MARCH 11, 2017, I WAS TRAVELING FROM FORT LAUDERDALE TO NAPLES FLORIDA ON INTERSTATE 75. I HAD THE CAR ON CRUISE CONTROL AND TRAVELING AROUND 70 MPH. I TOOK THE CAR OFF CRUISE CONTROL AND THEN PRESSED ON THE GAS WHEN THE CAR'S ENGINE DEACCELERATED THE CAR SEVERELY. I PRESSED AND LET OFF THE GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES AS THE CAR CONTINUE TO DEACCELERATE AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH AN 18-WHEELER. A SIMILAR CIRCUMSTANCE HAS ALSO OCCURRED BUT AT 10-20 MPH WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A RED LIGHT AND NEEDING TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS AND THEN PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS TO CONTINUE. THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO RUN BUT DOES NOT ACCELERATE THE CAR. IF THE HIGH SPEED CONDITION OCCURS AGAIN, I WILL NEED TO PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO STOP THE CAR'S ENGINE FROM SEVERELY DEACCELERATING THE CAR.

THE HEAT -SYSTEM HAS NEVER WORKED PROPERLY. THIS INCLUDES THE WINDSHIELD DEFROST MODE THAT DOES NOT CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD FOR SAFE VISIBILITY. . HOT AIR WILL ONLY BLOW OUT OF THE PASSENGER SIDE VENTS AND COLD AIR BLOWS OUT OF THE DRIVER SIDE VENTS. THE WINDSHIELD DOES NOT DEFROST ENOUGH FOR GOOD SAFE VISIBILITY. HONDA CORP.AND DEALERS KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON 2012 TO 2017 MODELS AND IS AVOIDING ANY RECALL OR OFFER TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE HELP US TO GET THIS FIXED SO THESE CARS ARE SAFE TO DRIVE IN COLD MONTHS. THANK YOU. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

BLUETOOTH MIC NEVER WORKED. ALL YOU HEAR IS STATIC NOISE.

TAKATA RECALL

ON COLD START THE ENGINE MAKES A LOUD GRINDING NOISE. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 28,500 MILES ON THE CAR.

THE HEATER CORE IS CLOGGED AND NEEDS TO BE FLUSHED IN ACCORDANCE WITH TSB 14-063. GETTING THE CRV TO OPERATING TEMPERATURE AND DRIVING HUNDREDS OF MILES HAS NO AFFECT GETTING HEAT. THE LACK OF HEAT POSES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO EXTREME FREEZING TEMPERATURES AND WINDSHIELD DEFROSTING. IT MAKES IT NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD WHILE LEAVING ALL OCCUPANTS INSIDE THE VEHICLE FROZEN. THIS KNOWN HEATER CORE PROBLEM IS NOT COVERED UNDER HONDA NEW VEHICLE LIMITED WARRANTY.

ENGINE MAKES A RATTLE NOISE ON COLD START UP. CAR WAS TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THE VTC ACTUATOR WAS DEFECTIVE AND WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT 83000 MILES. THIS WAS IN AUGUST OF 2017. IT IS NOW JANUARY OF 2018, CAR NOW HAS 90355 MILES AND THE RATTLE NOISE HAS RETURNED. WILL TAKE THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THIS WEEK TO SEE WHAT WILL BE DONE NEXT. FROM WHAT I HAVE RESEARCHED, HONDA HAS NOT COME UP WITH A REAL FIX. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS FOR PREVIOUS MODELS. COME ON NHTSA, PUT SOME HEAT ON THESE GUYS.

DEFECTIVE DOOR LOCKING SYSTEMS IN 2013 HONDA CR-V VEHICLE. WE HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 3 DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS ON OUR 2013 CR-V AND NOW HAVE HAD A 4TH DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR GO BAD. WE HAVE SPOKEN WITH AMERICAN HONDA, AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THE ACTUATOR IS NOT DEFECTIVE. WELL, IF IT IS NOT DEFECTIVE, THEN WHY IS IT NOT WORKING? WE ASKED TO SPEAK TO A MANAGER, AND WERE INFORMED THAT THE MANAGER WOULD TELL US THE SAME THING. WE HAVE SPOKEN WITH OTHER HONDA OWNERS OF DIFFERENT VEHICLES, AND THEY ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR PROBLEMS WITH THEIR VEHICLES, WHETHER IT BE A CR-V, ACCORD, CIVIC, ETC. MY PREVIOUS 2008 HONDA CIVIC HAD TO HAVE 12 DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS REPLACED. I'VE SPOKEN WITH A COUPLE OF THE HONDA SERVICE TECHS, AND THEY LAUGHED WHEN I TOLD THEM ABOUT THE DOOR ACTUATOR PROBLEM. ONE TECH SAID THEY REPLACED THEM QUITE OFTEN. THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT AND A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT NEEDS TO BE STARTED TO REMEDY THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. THERE WAS A CLASS ACTION SUIT AGAINST HONDA FOR 2007-2011 HONDA CR-V'S WHICH HONDA SETTLED.

MY AIRBAG LIGHTS ARE ON AND I TOOK IT INTO HONDA. THEY GOT THE LIGHT TO GO OFF BUT IT CAME BACK ON AGAIN. THEY SAID I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE AIRBAGS??? I DO NOT UNDERSTAND, I HAVE OWNED HONDAS FOR A LONG TIME AND HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM? WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO REPLACE AIRBAGS WHEN THEY HAVE NEVER BEEN USED?

WHEN THE CAR IS COLD AT 30 MPH THE CAR VIBRATES. DEALER RESET SOFTWARE ON TRANSMISSION. DID NOT FIX PROBLEM. NOW THEY ARE GOING TO REPLACE REAR DRIVESHAFT.

PULLED INTO DRIVEWAY AND WAS A COUPLE OF FEET AWAY FROM THE GARAGE DOOR, GOING ONLY ONE OR TWO MPH,PUT FOOT ON BRAKE TO STOP AND SUDDENLY THE CAR LURCH FORWARD,PRESS AS HARD AS I COULD ON BRAKE PEDAL,BUT CAR KEPT MOVING FORWARD TILL IT HIT GARAGE DOOR,THEN EVERYTHING STOPPED. YOU CAN SEE BY THE MARKS ON THE DRIVEWAY THAT THE FRONT TIRES WERE SPINNING FORWARD WHILE THE REAR TIRES WERE LOCKED ( BECAUSE I HAD HARD PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL) AND SLID A FEW FEET, WE HAVE TAKEN PICTURES OF THE CAR AND DRIVEWAY AND WILL TRY TO SEND TO YOU. I AM FEARFUL OF DRIVING THIS CAR BECAUSE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN WHILE AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR PARKING LOT OR SIMILAR, IT COULD BE LIFE THREATENING

WHILE COMING HOME INTO MY DRIVEWAY AS I CAME UP THE DRIVEWAY I WAS STOPPING BY A THE FRONT DOOR THE CAR SUDDENLY LURCHED FORWARD JUST BEFORE I CAME TO A FULL STOP,AND HIT GARAGE DOOR, WHICH SHOOK ME UP AS MY FOOT WAS ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, I HAD PUSHED THE PEDAL HARD BUT STILL THE CAR MOVED FORWARD, AFTERWARDS WE MOVED THE CAR BACK AND YOU CAN SEE WHERE THE FRONT TIRES ARE SPINNING FORWARD AND THE REAR TIRES ARE LOCKED UP SLIDING FORWARD SHOWING THAT INDEED MY FOOT WAS PRESSING HARD ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, CALLED MY LOCAL DEALER AND HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THEM, THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR. AS IT IS NOW,I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT BECAUSE IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN AND I AM AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR PARKING LOT SOMETHING WORSE COULD HAPPEN OR GET INJURED. WE TOOK PICTURES OF THE CAR, GARAGE DOOR AND ALL THE TIRE MARKS, WILL TRY TO SEND THESE TO YOU.

PRESSING ON THE BRAKES IN SLIPPERY CONDITIONS LIKE SNOW CAUSES THE ANTILOCK BRAKES TO LOCK UP AND THE CAR TO SKID. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS- EVEN AS LOW AS 15MPH.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE NOT HAD AN OFFICIAL RECALL NOTICE FOR THE TAKATA AIRBAGS, BUT I DID RECEIVE A CLASS ACTION NOTICE IN THE MAIL ON DEC. 11, 2017. THIS IS THE REASON WHY I AM FILLING OUT THIS FORM. AT THE TIME THAT I CHECKED ON THE WEBSITE, IT DID NOT LIST MY CAR AS ONE OF THOSE BEING RECALLED, BUT SAID THAT IT COULD BE RECALLED AT A LATER DATE.

HI SOMETIME I AM SEEING WARNING LIKE LEFT SIDE AIR BAG IS OFF. BUT IT GOES AWAY IN FEW MINS. PLEASE ADVISE THANKS ABHISHEK

SPORADIC GRINDING NOISE AFTER SETTING OVERNIGHT. TOOK TO DEALER, THEY SAID WOULD HAVE TO HEAR IT BEFORE THEY COULD DO ANYTHING. LEFT UNTIL THE NEXT DAY. NO SATISFACTION ON MY PART. STILL DOES IT. IT WAS UNDER WARRANTY WHEN TAKEN IN, BUT IS OUT OF WARRANTY NOW.

DRIVERS DOOR LOCK MAKES A LOUD,GRINDING SOUND WHEN THE DOOR IS LOCKED. UNABLE TO LOCK THE VEHICLE. DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR REPLACED, LASTED ONE DAY, PROBLEM CAME BACK. REAR LEFT DOOR LOCK DOES NOT OPEN OR CLOSE USING THE REMOTE. IT MUST BE MANUALLY OPENED OR CLOSED.

ESPECIALLY WHEN COLD UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION, THE VEHICLE WILL SHUDDER. I THINK IT IS WHEN IT SHIFTS FROM 1ST TO 2ND GEAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR NORMAL SERVICE AND ASKED THEM TO CHECK THIS ISSUE. WENT TO PICK IT UP AND WAS TOLD THEY CONFIRMED THE ISSUE. THEY TOLD ME THE ISSUE WAS REPORTED IN LATER MODELS AND A POSSIBLE FIX WAS TO CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION AND REAR DIFFERENTIAL FLUID AND UPDATE THE SOFTWARE. IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED BY THE HONDA 5 YEAR/60K MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY OR THE EXTENDED WARRANTY PURCHASED WHEN WE BOUGHT THE CAR NEW. I WAS CHARGED $88.00 JUST FOR THEM TO CONFIRM THE ISSUE AND ALSO HONDA WAS AWARE OF THE ISSUE. SINCE THEY SAID IT WOULD ONLY POSSIBLY FIX THE CAR AT A COST TO ME OF AROUND $300.00 AND THERE WERE NO FAULT CODES, I OPTED TO FOREGO THE PROCEDURE. AFTER I GOT HOME I FOUND NUMEROUS REPORTS OF THIS PROBLEM ON USER FORUMS. I ALSO FOUND A LINK TO PRINT THE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN SB 15-086, DATED AUGUST 18, 2016. THAT WAS STATED FOR CRV MODEL YEARS 2012-14. HOPEFULLY THE PROBLEM WILL NOT RESULT IN A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE, CAUSING INJURY OR DAMAGE. HONDA EVIDENTLY DOES NOT BELIEVE IT COULD OR THERE WOULD BE A RECALL.

HAVE 2013 HONDA CR-V AND WHEN GO TO START IT AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT MAKES LOUD GRINDING NOISE FOR 1-2 SECONDS. DEALERSHIP SAYS IT'S THE VTC ACTUATOR AND IS A KNOW PROBLEM BUT NOT RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. THEY WANT 500 BUCKS TO FIX THE ISSUES SINCE CAR OF COURSE ISN'T UNDER WARRANTY AND WON'T WORK WITH ME AT ALL. VERY UNPROFESSIONAL IN MY OPINION OF HONDA WITH AN ISSUES THAT IS KNOW AND COMMON.

TAKATA RECALL, I WANT TO KNOW IF MY VEHICLE IS AT RISK?? NOTHING HAPPENED, I RECEIVED AN ALERT.

LOUD, GRINDING SOUND UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE, AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT.

JUDDER, AKIN TO DRIVING ON THE RUMBLE STRIPS ALONGSIDE A HIGHWAY. HAPPENS WHEN SLOWLY ACCELERATING BETWEEN 20-30 MPH. PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 10/2016.

DRIVER'S DOOR LOCK MAKES A LOUD RATTLE UPON LOCKING, SOUNDS LIKE A MACHINE GUN. REAR LEFT DOOR CAN ONLY BE MANUALLY LOCKED OR UNLOCKED, DOES NOT WORK WITH THE REMOTE OR WILL NOT LOCK OR UNLOCK AUTOMATICALLY.

WIRING HARNESS WAS CHEWED BY RODENTS.EXPENSE WAS $1350. DEALER SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SOLD ME RODENT TAPE FOR THE OTHER WIRES THAT WERE NOT REPLACED.

SUNROOF GLASS EXPLODED WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE.

AT TIMES WHEN I AM TRURNING ON THE CAR I HEAR A GRINDING NOISE. I'M NOT SURE WHERE THIS NOISE IS COMEING FROM BUT IT'S LOUD AND SCRACHY GRINDY. SOMETIME IS COMES ON WHEN I FIRST START THE CAR IN THE MORNING, BUT YET SOMETIME IS DOSE THE SAME THING LATER ON IN THE DAY. SOME DAYS IT DOSE NOT DO THAT NOISE AT ALL, BUT SOME DAYS IT DOES IT A FEW TIMES IN THE DAY. I HAVE ASKED THE DEALER ABOUT IT BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WHY. THE FORM REQUIRES A DATE OF WHEN THIS HAPPENS, BUT THERE IS NO EXACT DATE THIS ISSUE HAPPENS WHENEVER NO WORNING AND NO REASON WHY IT SHOULD HAPPEN

EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. NO OIL LEAK AND NOT BURNING OIL. MECHANIC NOTED EXCESSIVE OIL USE WHEN HE SAW IT WAS 2 QUARTS LOW ON OIL WITHIN 3 MONTHS USE AFTER A OIL CHANGE. MECHANIC FOUND NO CAUSE FOR THIS SO IT MUST BE INSIDE THE ENGINE OR DRIVE TRAIN. CAR IS USED FOR LOCAL FLAT DRIVING. NO TOWING, RACING, MOUNTAINS, ETC.

AWFUL GRINDING NOISE AT A COLD START NO MATTER WHAT THE WEATHER IS. CAR IS IN MID ATLANTIC REGION. EACH START COMES WITH A GRINDING NOISE. MECHANIC CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. NONE OF MY OTHER CARS NOT MAKE SUCH A HORRENDOUS NOISE AT START UP. THIS SOUND WAS NOTICED NOT LONG AFTER THE CAR WAS PURCHASED LATE 2014.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, THE SUN ROOF SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SUN ROOF'S GLASS EXPLODED INTO THE SHADE OF THE SUN ROOF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO DCH GARDINA HONDA IN GARDINA, CALIFORNIA (15541 WESTERN AVENUE, 90249). THE DEALER STATED THAT A ROCK MAY HAVE BEEN THE SOURCE OF THE FAILURE AND THEY WERE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BY AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,967.

HONDA 2013 CRV WILL VIBRATE @ 25-35 MILE SPEED FEEL LIKE WHEN ITS SHIFTING TO 3RD ITS HAVING PROBLEM TO SWITCH GEARS FROM 2ND TO 3RD , ONCE ITS ABOVE OR CLOSE TO 40 MILE SPEED , ITS OK, RUNS GOOD. (ALL OILS AND SPARK PLUGS ARE CLEAN, ALSO ALL FILTERS).STARTED NOTICING THIS PROBLEM ON 10 08 16 AND ITS BEEN GRADUALLY MORE NOTICEABLE , EVERYDAY LITTLE BY LITTLE.

VTC ACTUATOR MAKES LOUD GRINDING NOISE UPON STARTUP. MANY REPORTS ONLINE IT IS NOT CLEAR WHAT THE LONG TERM EFFECTS WILL BE.

2013 HONDA CRV SHAKES AT SPEED 30-45 MPH DURING ACCELERATION. SHAKES SOMETIMES GOES AWAY WHEN FOOT IS REMOVED MOMENTARILY AND GAS IS REAPPLIED. ALREADY MADE ATTEMPT TO HAVE ISSUE FIX AT DAYTONA HONDA DEALERSHIP, TRANSMISSION FLUID WAS FLUSHED AND FUEL INJECTORS CLEANED. SHAKING RETURNED AFTER A FEW WEEKS.

ON THE FIRST START OF THE DAY, ESPECIALLY COLD DAYS, THE ENGINE MAKES A LOUD GRINDING/RATTLING NOISE. THE DEALERSHIP CLAIMS THAT THERE ISN'T A FIX FOR THE ISSUE. IT CLAIMS THAT IT IS A DESIGN FLAW AND DOESN'T HURT THE ENGINE. ACCORDING TO THEM, THE OIL DRAINS FROM THE PART OVERNIGHT AND THE "NOISE" IS CAUSED BY LACK OF OIL TO THAT PART. AS SOON AS THE PART GETS OIL IT STOPS. (ABOUT 2-3 SECONDS) ACCORDING TO RESEARCH I'VE DONE ON THE INTERNET, THE ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR SEVERAL YEARS WITHOUT A FIX AND IS SOMEWHAT COMMON. I BOUGHT THE CAR IN APRIL AND DIDN'T EXPERIENCE THE PROBLEM UNTIL LATE FALL. IT TOOK ME MONTHS TO PROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT THERE WAS A PROBLEM.SHAME ON HONDA. I'VE OWNED HONDA CARS AND HAVE BEEN LOYAL TO HONDA FOR 25 YEARS, BUT NO LONGER.

THERE IS A TSB OUT THAT SAYS THE FLUIDS NEED TO BE CHANGED AND A SOFTWARE UPDATE APPLIED. THE ORIGINAL SYMPTOM IS THE VEHICLE SHUDDER AT START OF ACCELERATION AND DURING SHIFTS BETWEEN 2ND AND 3RD. PAID FOR SERVICE STILL HAVE PROBLEM HONDA DEALER IN HOLLYWOOD FLORIDA 2 DAYS AFTER SERVICE STILL SAME PROBLEM. WENT BACK TO DEALER TELLS US ITS TORQUE CONVERTER BUT NOT COVERED. QUESTION IS WHY DIDN'T THEY TEST V DRIVE VEHICLE AFTER SERVICE WORK. BEEN TO SEVERAL DEALERSHIPS TO TEST DRIVE USED CRV BETWEEN MODEL TREAT 2012 TO 2014 ALL HAVE SAME ISSUES. CAR TRAVELS 80 PERCENT CITY STREETS ALONG SAME ROUTE PAST THIS HONDA DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES DAILY. CHECKED SEVERAL HONDA FORUMS AND VARIOUS YEARS ALL POSTING ISSUES DOES NOT MATTER IF LX EX EXL OR 2WD OR AND MODELS EVERYONE POSTS SANE ISSUES. HAVRE EVEN RETIRED DRIVING PINKY ECO MODE OR NORMAL MODE SAME ISSUE SO SOFTWARE UPDATE AND FLUID CHANGE RESOLVED NO ISSUES.

BATTERY ISSUE ,IT DIE WITH OUT NO RISEN ,THE THE TRIPLE AAA TEST [ CHARGING SYSTEM TEST] NO PROBLEM .IT HAPPEN SO MANY TIMES .WHAT CAN I DO?

A SQUIRREL ATE THROUGH MY WINDSHIELD WASHER HOSES. I GOT THE HOSES REPLACED, THEN 3 MONTHS LATER IT HAPPENED AGAIN, AND I HAD TO REPLACE THEM AGAIN. ONE TIME I WAS MOVING WHEN I DISCOVERED I HAD NON-FUNCTIONING WASHERS, AND THE OTHER TIME IT WAS WHILE MY CAR WAS STATIONARY. THERE IS A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST HONDA FOR THE SOY-BASED COATING HONDA USES, WHICH ATTRACTS RODENTS. THE HONDA SERVICE MANAGER PRETENDED HE KNEW NOTHING ABOUT THIS SITUATION, EVEN THOUGH HONDA MAKES A RODENT-DETERRENT TAPE FOR THIS VERY REASON. ALTHOUGH THE SAFETY FACTOR WAS MINIMAL DUE TO NEVER KNOWING WHETHER I HAVE FUNCTIONING WINDSHIELD WASHERS UNLESS I TEST THEM EACH TIME I TURN ON THE CAR, I HAVE READ ABOUT HONDA OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD RODENTS EAT THROUGH THEIR MAIN HARNESSES.

TSB A15-086 DESCRIBES TRANSMISSION ISSUE OF VEHICLE WHEN SHIFTING BETWEEN 2 AND 3 GEARS UNDER LIGHT ACCELERATION. TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP IN 2/17 DEALER REPLACED FLUIDS WORKED SMOOTH FOR A WEEK AND STARTED AGAIN. DEALER CLAIMS THEY DID MULTI POINT INSPECTION BEFORE AND AFTER FLUID CHANGE. BUT ONLY DISCOVERED TORQUE CONVERTER ISSUE TODAY. WANTS 1500.00 TO REPLACE TORQUE CONVERTER SOFTWARE UPDATE AND FLUID REPLACEMENT WAS TEMPORARY FIN LASTED A WEEKING SHOWED TSB SAYS NOT PART OF ISSUE IS POSTED ALL OVER MULTIPLE HONDA FORUMS.

I'VE PREVIOUSLY REPORTED THE VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEM O THIS SITE AND AMERICAN HONDA WITH ZERO SATISFACTION. THE PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED AND I GET CONFLICTING INFORMATION FROM MY DEALER AND AMERICAN HONDA. THE ORIGINAL COMPLAINT NUMBER WAS 10783068. UPON RE-INQUIRING WITH AMERICAN HONDA THEY'VE INFORMED ME THAT THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN ASSOCIATED WITH MY VIN WHICH AGAIN IS INCORRECT BASED ON DEALERSHIP FEEDBACK. HONDA HAS REFUSED TO PERMIT ME THE ABILITY TO SPEAK TO A CUSTOMER CARE SUPERIOR OR TO SHARE WITH ME THE ACTUAL RESOLUTION OF OTHER KNOWN VTC ACTUATOR PROBLEMS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AND DETEREMINE EXACTLY WHY HONDA IS BEING PERMITTED TO IGNORE THIS KNOWN AND WIDESPREAD PROBLEM?

CAR WOULD NOT START AT HOME. UNSURE HOW IT MADE IT HOME. FOUND BATTERY HAD LEAKED AND COMPLETELY CORRODED THROUGH COPPER WIRE BRAID USED ON POSITIVE BATTERY CABLE INSTEAD OF A PROPER BATTERY POST CLAMP. LOST ALL CONNECTIVITY TO STARTER. CORROSION INFILTRATED WIRE TO STARTER. INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS NUMEROUS HONDA CUSTOMERS WITH DIFFERENT MODELS DATING BACK TO 2002 OR SO WITH SAME PROBLEM. DEALER PRICE OF WIRING HARNESS AT $800 PLUS LABOR AND BATTERY AT APPROX. $117. ADD POSSIBLE TOWING CHARGES, TOTAL COST TO FIX = $1,000 - $2,000. 1) BATTERY SHOULD LAST MORE THAN 3-4 YEARS 2) USE OF WIRE BRAID INSTEAD OF PROPER BATTERY POST CLAMP IS DESIGN FLAW APPEARS NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. HONDA WEBSITE HAS NO FACILITY TO REGISTER COMPLAINTS ONLINE. CUSTOMER SERVICE PAGE FOR THAT PURPOSE DID NOT WORK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA CR-V. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CONTACT OBSERVED AN ABNORMAL NOISE FROM THE ENGINE WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND SEVERAL OTHER WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON DASH. CAR HAS 77,806 MILES. DEALER SAID TIMING CHAIN IS STRETCHED. I HAVE HAD ALL RECOMMENDED MAINTENANCE PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE AND AM THE ONLY OWNER. SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID I SHOULD GET OIL CHANGES MORE OFTEN THAN RECOMMENDED. THIS SHOULD NOT BE CONSIDERED A NORMAL 'WEAR' ITEM AT THIS AGE/MILEAGE.

WHEN I SHIFT FROM PARKING TO REVERSE I HEAR A LOUD CLUNKING SOUND.

I OWN A HONDA CR-V 2013 AWD WITH 60,000 MILES. I'M THE SECOND OWNER. I PURCHASED THE CAR FROM CARMAX IN 2016 WITH 27,000 MILES. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE ONE MORNING I HEAR THIS LOUD GRINDING NOISE LASTING A FEW SECONDS AFTER INITIAL START UP OF VEHICLE WHEN STATIONARY. THIS SOUND HAS CONTINUED ON AND OFF AT ALL DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE DAY.

HESITATION WHEN VEHICLE HAS COME TO SLOWDOWN AS IF TO STOP BUT GAS IS PRESSED TO CONTINUE, VEHICLE WILL HESITATE AS IF IT COMPLETELY LOSES ALL POWER FOR A FEW SECONDS, THEN IT WILL REGAIN POWER. THIS IF EXTREMELY FRIGHTENING WHEN TRAFFIC IS COMING. CAR IS IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IT HAPPENS OCCASIONALLY.
