2018 Honda CR-V complaints

ON MANY OCCASIONS MY CRV AUTO BRAKES HARD AND LANE KEEP FOLLOWS THE WRONG LINES. 2 EXAMPLES OF BRAKING: 1 - A PICKUP TRUCK WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN IN FRONT ON ME. AS A HUMAN I STARTED TO GO AROUND HIM TO THE LEFT AS HE TURNED BUT MY AUTO BRAKES LOCKED UP AND THE PERSON BEHIND ME CAME WITHIN INCHES FROM REAR ENDING ME THEN GOT ROAD RAGE AND CHASED ME FOR SOMETHING I DID NOT DO! COULD HAVE BEEN KILLED! 2ND WAS ON A BEND IN THE ROAD - A WHITE MOVING TRUCK COMING THE OTHER WAY ON THE BEND MADE MY AUTO BRAKES LOCK UP HARD / NEAR A FULL STOP! THIS HAPPENS OFTEN BUT NOT USUALLY TO THESE EXTREMES. LANE KEEP - WHILE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH CRUISE AND LK ON I WENT THRU A RECENT CONSTRUCTION AREA AND MY HONDA STARTED TO FOLLOW OLD LINES AND PAINTED OVER W/ BLACK PAINT LINES - NOT THE NEW LINES FROM AFTER THE REPAIRS! IT WAS SCARY - ALMOST DROVE ME INTO A BARRIER! ON 1200 MILE TRIP TO FLORIDA MY CAR OFTEN WOULD HIT THE BRAKES FOR REASONS I COULD NOT TELL OR GO OUT OF THE NORMAL ROAD LINES OR THE ACC WOULD SLOW THE CAR TO A CRAWL FOR TRUCKS IN THE OTHER LANE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER - THEY SAY NPF. ONE GUY DID SAY TO ADJUST THE SENSITIVITY WHICH I DID BUT IT STILL BRAKES WHEN IT SHOULD NOT. MY WIFES CAR DOES NOT REACT THIS WAY.

3 TIME WHILE DRIVING ON THE FWY 65 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, LANE CONTROL ACTIVATED, AND THE DISTANCE SET TO MINIMUM, WITH NO ONE IN FRONT OF ME, THE CAR DETECTED THE CAR TO THE RIGHT OF ME AND SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES, AND CAUSING THE PERSON BEHIND ME TO SLAM ON THEIR BRAKE ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THIS HAPPENED BETWEEN APRIL OF 2019 AND OCT OF 2019. WHEN I BROUGHT IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID THAT THERE WAS DIRT ON THE MILLIWAVE RADAR, FOUND CODE P2583-97, I FOUND THIS TO BE HIGHLY UNLIKELY BECAUSE THE CAR WAS SPOTLESS. THE SECOND TIME I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. WHEN ASKED HOW THEY DIAGNOSED THE CAR THEY SAID THEY DROVE IT 10 MILES DOWN A BOLSA CHICA RD. I TOLD THE SEVICE PERSON THAT THAT WAS NOT THE SAME CONDITIONS AS I WAS DRIVING AND THAT THEY COULD NOT HAVE GOTTEN THE CAR UP TO 65 MPH WHEN THE SPEED LIMIT WAS 45 MPH AND IT WASN'T A FWY. HER RESPONSE WAS WE ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DRIVE CARS ON THE FWY. I SAID THEN HOW ARE YOU DO DUPLICATE THE CONDITION OF THE PROBLEM. THIS CAR HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP FOR MULTABLE ELECTRONIC ISSUE, NONE OF WHICH HAVE BEEN SOLVED YET. ALL I GET IS THE SAME ANSWER, CANT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THIS CAR HAS HAD THESE PROBLEMS SINCE IT WAS SOLD NEW AND THE PERSON BEFORE ME TURNED THIS CAR IN WITH ONLY 8000 MILES ON IT FOR A NEW CAR THAT THEY COULD TRUST. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AD COULD CAUSE ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT THATS NOT MY FAULT.

HI EVERY TIME LATELY AT THE LIGHTS OR WHEN I LEFT MY CAR ON MY DRIVEWAY OR AT PARKING LOT A VERY STRONG GASOLINE ODOR COMES MOST LIKELY FROM THE FRONT/ENGINE. PLEASE ADVISE.

STALLING WHILE I WAS TRAVELING IN TRAFFIC. OIL DIP STICK SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE IS "OVERFULL" ON OIL MARK. *LN VEHICLE HESITATED AND STALLED BECAUSE OK HAD BEEN DRAINED TO A LOWER LEVEL ONCE AND REPLACED 2 TIMES. CONSUMER STATED FUEL INJECTORS WERE REPLACED. *JB

I PURCHASED MY 2018 CRV EXL IN LATE NOVEMBER 2018. SINCE THEN THE WINDSHIELD HAS BEEN CHIPPED TWICE (REPAIRED BOTH TIMES) AND CRACKED TWO OTHER TIMES - REQUIRING WINDSHIELD REPLACEMENT AT $1,200 (OEM) EACH TIME. I'VE DRIVEN THE SAME NORMAL PAVED ROADS/HIGHWAYS THAT I'VE DRIVEN FOR THE LAST 25 YEARS - HAVING ONLY EXPERIENCED TWO WINDSHIELD CRACKS ACROSS ALL MY PREVIOUS VEHICLES DURING ALL THOSE YEARS. MY PERSONAL EXPERIENCE COMBINED WITH ACCOUNTS FROM OTHER GEN5 HONDA CRV OWNERS AND OBSERVATIONS BY THE WINDSHIELD REPAIR SHOP INDICATE THAT GEN5 HONDA CRVS HAVE INSUFFICIENTLY STRONG/DURABLE OEM WINDSHIELDS. AS A RESULT I AM CONCERNED ABOUT SAFETY SHOULD MY FAMILY BE IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. IN ADDITION, MY INSURANCE AGENT HAS INFORMED ME THAT ANOTHER WINDSHIELD REPAIR/REPLACEMENT CLAIM IS LIKELY TO INCREASE EITHER MY INSURANCE PREMIUM OR DEDUCTIBLE - ACCORDINGLY I PAID OUT-OF-POCKET FOR THE LAST CHIP REPAIR. I BELIEVE HONDA NEEDS TO DESIGN A STRONGER REPLACEMENT WINDSHIELD AND/OR EXTEND THE WARRANTIES TO COVER WINDSHIELD DAMAGE.

WHILE DRIVING ON SLICK ROADS I WAS USING BLUEOOTH TO HAVE A TELEPHONE CONVERSATION. A CAR SWERVED IN FRONT OF ME CAUSING ME TO SWERVE TO AVOID AN ACCIDENT. THE BLUETOOTH DISENGAGED AND I HEARD THE DOORS AUTOMATICALLY CLICK TO LOCK (THEY WERE ALREADY LOCKED). I ASSUME THESE ARE BUILT IN SAFETY FEATURES. WHEN I CAME TO A STOP, THE ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK OVERRODE THE MANUAL LOCK FOR THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR AND WOULD NOT UNLOCK; I COULD NOT EXIT THROUGH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. I TRIED MANY TIMES TO USE THE FOB OR TO MANUALLY UNLOCK THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR TO NO AVAIL.I HAD TO EXIT USING THE PASSENGER DOOR. THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR LOCK REFUSED TO WORK UNTIL I USED THE PHYSICAL KEY TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM THE OUTSIDE. USING THE PHYSICAL KEY APPEARED TO RE-SET THE ELECTRONIC DOOR LOCK SYSTEM AND IT THEN WORKED NORMALLY.

HAD ISSUES WITH ELECTRICAL SUCH AS WARNING LIGHTS IN THE PAST, 38,000 MILES HAD FUEL INJECTORS REPLACED. MENTION WHEN I GOT THE CAR THAT IT DID NOT HEAT PROPERLY, THEY SAID IT WAS NORMAL. DOES NOT HEAT WHEN IDLING . SO I STARTED CHECKING IT OUT AND EVERYBODY ELSE IS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. IDLING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE ENGINE MISFIRED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT PROPERLY ACCELERATE. THE CONTACT ALSO NOTICED FUEL LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND THE CPU ASSEMBLY WAS REPROGRAMMED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: CASE 09652318. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,500.

WHILE I WAS DRIVING TODAY THE CAR SYSTEM GOT JAMMED. I GOT A MESSAGE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED AND I WAS NOT ABLE TO APPLY BRAKES.THE BRAKE PEDAL IS HARD TO PRESS.THEN THE TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR,VEHICLE STABILITY SYSTEM,LANE ASSIST SHOWS FAILED MESSAGE. LUCKILY NO ONE IS IN FRONT OF ME SO I WAS ABLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND STEER THE VEHICLE TO SIDE. I WAS ON LOCAL ROAD WITH MY FAMILY AND LUCKILY NO ONE GOT HURT.I REPORTED THIS INCIDENT TO HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE AND THEY ASKED ME TO CONTACT LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO EVALUATE AND REPORT SAYS AN ISSUE WITH FAILURE ELECTRONIC BRAKING SYSTEM

THE SUNROOF EXPLODED ON MY CR-V DUE TO A TWEAKED FRAME OUT OF THE FACTORY WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY ON WEDNESDAY OCTOBER 23RD.

I BOUGHT A 2018 HONDA CR-V IN MAY 2018, IT WAS NEW, WITH 717 DEALER MILES ON IT. IT CAME WITH BRIDGESTONE ECOPIA HL 422 PLUS TIRES IN SIZE 235 65R17 AS STANDARD EQUIPMENT. AT 9,292 MILES ON SEPTEMBER 11TH I HAD AN OIL CHANGE AND SERVICE WHICH INCLUDED CHECKING TIRE PRESSURES. ON SEPTEMBER 28TH I WENT ON VACATION AND CAME BACK OCTOBER 5TH. ON A PERFECTLY CLEAR DAY, NO HAZARDS IN THE ROAD, ON INTERSTATE 26 NORTH OF FLORENCE, SC, I HEARD A LOUD BANG, AND AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THE CAR NEXT TO ME BACKFIRING. BUT THEN I HEARD THE DREADED FLAPPING SOUND OF A FLAT TIRE ON MY VEHICLE. I PULLED OFF THE EXTREMELY BUSY INTERSTATE AND PROCEEDED TO CHANGE THE TIRE WHICH WAS ON THE LEFT REAR. I THEN SEARCHED ON MY PHONE FOR THE CLOSEST HONDA DEALERSHIP TO TRY TO GET A NEW TIRE BECAUSE I STILL HAD ABOUT 140 MILES TO GET HOME, AND DID NOT WANT TO RISK IT ON THE 'DOUGHNUT' SPARE TIRE. I FOUND ONE IN SUMTER, SC, ABOUT 25 MILES OFF THE INTERSTATE AND WENT THERE. THEY PUT ON A NEW TIRE WHICH COST ME $167.52. I TOLD THE MANAGER THAT I BELIEVED IT WAS A DEFECTIVE TIRE. HE SAID 'LET'S LOOK ON THE INSIDE TO SEE IF THERE IS ANY METAL OR OTHER DEBRIS'. THERE WAS NONE. JUST AN INNER SIDEWALL BLOWOUT. AND NO DAMAGE TO THE TREAD. HE BAGGED THE TIRE UP FOR ME. AND I CONTINUED HOME. MONDAY OCTOBER 7TH I WENT TO MY HONDA DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED TO THE PARTS MANAGER WHAT HAD HAPPENED AND HE TOOK THE TIRE. HE AGREED THAT IT LOOKED SUSPICIOUS. HE GOT NO POSITIVE RESPONSE AT ALL FROM BRIDGESTONE, AND I CALL

I WAS GOING ABOUT 25 MILES PER HOUR AT ABOUT 6:00 PM ON 10/21/2019 IN MY 2018 HONDA CRV EXL IN PITTSBURGH, PA. WHEN THE CAR'S AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM KICKED IN AND SLAMMED ON MY BREAKS ABRUPTLY FOR ABSOLUTELY NO REASON AT ALL. IT WAS A VERY CLEAR DAY, NO RAIN, VERY WELL PAVED, MAINTAINED, AND MARKED 2 LANE CITY STREET. THERE WERE ABSOLUTELY NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME OR COMING IN THE OTHER DIRECTION. THIS CAME OUT OF NO WHERE AND I WAS SHOCKED AND CONFUSED AS TO WHY THIS HAPPENED. I OWN 3 CRVS!!! I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED HONDAS AND NOW I'M FEARFUL OF THEM. I'M AFRAID TO LET MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER DRIVE IT. THANK GOD I WAS ONLY GOING 25 MILES PER HOUR AND NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME ! PLEASE HONDA! THIS IS REAL!!!! THIS IS DANGEROUS!! FIX THIS PROBLEM!!! OUR LIVES DEPEND ON IT!

MY 2018 CR V HAS BEEN IN FOR SERVICE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM 5 TIMES. BASICALLY ON MY MORNING COMMUTE FROM NORCO TO LOS ANGELES I SPORADICALLY GET AN ERROR MESSAGE, ROAD MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ROAD DEPARTURE SYSTEM PROBLEM ALONG WITH A BRAKE LIGHT CYCLE THROUGH MY DASHBOARD AND ALL THESE SYSTEMS FAIL TO WORK. THIS WILL LAST THE REST OF MY COMMUTE AND ALL LIGHTS ARE OFF WHEN I DRIVE HOME LATER ON IN THE DAY. THE FIRST COUPLE OF TIMES I BROUGHT THE CAR IN, THEY SENT IT HOME WITH ME BECAUSE THEY COULD NOT FIND ERROR CODES, PROBLEM STILL PRESENT. FINALLY THIS LAST TIME THE TECHNICIAN ADJUSTED SOME CAMERAS TO SEE IF THAT COULD FIX THE PROBLEM, IT DID NOT. MY CAR IS STILL IN YOUR SHOP AT PENSKE ONTARIO AND THE TECHNICIAN WHO CALLED ME YESTERDAY SAID THIS IS A NORMAL FEATURE OF THIS CAR, AND THE HONDA HOTLINE DOES NOT HAVE THIS PROBLEM REPORTED. HE INFORMED ME THAT THE CAR IS PICKING UP SOMETHING THAT IS CAUSING IT TO FAIL. MY COMMUTE IS AT 4AM ON A NON BUSY FREEWAY, I HAVE NOT NOTICED CONSTRUCTION NOR MAJOR ROAD DAMAGE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. IF THE ROAD CONDITIONS WERE THE PROBLEM, I DRIVE THIS COMMUTE A LOT AND THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN THEN. THIS SOUNDS LIKE THEIR IS NO SOLUTION TO MY PROBLEM AND I AM GIVEN A GENERIC ANSWER. I HAVE DONE MY RESEARCH AND I AM NOT THE ONLY PERSON EXPERIENCING THIS WITH THE CR V. THE DEALER HAS INFORMED ME THEY WILL BE DOING NOTHING FURTHER FOR MY PROBLEM. THIS HAPPENS MULTIPLE TIMES

I WAS DRIVING MY 2018 HONDA CRV ON A CITY STREET BETWEEN 25 AND 30 MPH WHEN THE BRAKES SUDDENLY APPLIED THEMSELVES AND THE CAR JERKED FORWARD VERY HARD. MY FOOT WAS ON THE ACCLERATOR.THERE WAS NO CAR, PEDESTRIAN OF OBJECT IN FRONT OF MY CAR NOR BEHIND MY CAR. THE WEATHER WAS CLEAR, NO RAIN FOR SEVERAL DAYS.I THINK IT WAS THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM. I CALLED THE DEALER AS SOON AS I GOT HOME. THEY ARE CLOSED. I WILL BE TAKING MY CAR TO THE DEALER FIRST THING IN THE MORNING

I BOUGHT CAR USED FROM GM DEALERSHIP 3/16/19, WASN'T AWARE OF PROBLEM UNTIL FIRST SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE.GAS MIXING IN WITH OIL CAUSING OIL LEVEL TO RISE SIGNIFICANTLY OVER SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, ABOUT A QUART HIGH WITH AROUND 2,000 MILES DRIVEN,MOSTLY HIGHWAY. HONDA SERVICE HAD ME BRING IN VEHICLE AFTER OIL CHANGE TO CHECK LEVEL, THEN AGAIN AFTER 1,000 MILES TO RECHECK. BROUGHT IN IN AFTER ABOUT 1700 MILES AND OIL WAS UP ABOUT A QUART ACCORDING TO SERVICE MANAGER. HONDA DEALER PERFORMED SOFTWARE "FIX" TO ALLEVIATE PROBLEM, BUT AFTER 1,500 MILES, OIL LEVEL UP SIGNIFICANTLY AGAIN. DEALER CONTENDS HONDA DOESN'T HAVE PROTOCOLS IN PLACE TO TAKE CARE OF ISSUE YET. CAR IN HONDA DEALERSHIP TODAY AGAIN FOR ASSESSMENT, THIRD OIL CHANGE IN 2 MONTHS. DIFFICULT TO EVALUATE CARS PERFORMANCE SINCE I BOUGHT USED AND NEVER HAD NORMAL BASELINE TO COMPARE TO.

TRAVELING 45 MPH ON SECONDARY ROAD AND CAR SUDDENLY HIT BRAKE MODE FOR NO REASON. NO OTHER TRAFFIC ON ROAD. VEHICLE SKIDDED AND THREW EVERYTHING IN VEHICLE TO FLOOR INCLUDING PET. WHIPPED NECK VERY HARD.

THE GEAR SHIFT BUTTON ON MY 2018 CRV BROKE OFF AS I WAS SHIFTING FROM DRIVE TO PARK. I WAS PARKED AT THE TIME, HOWEVER, ONCE IT FALLS OUT THE ONLY WAY TO SHIFT GEARS AGAIN IS TO SHOVE IT BACK IN PLACE. IT DANGLES AND DOESN'T STAY SITUATED IN THE GEAR SHIFT AND SOMETIMES DOESN'T GO BACK IN EASILY. THIS IS UNSAFE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED WITH A BETTER SOLUTION THAN REPLACING THE BUTTON WITH THE SAME BUTTON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THERE WAS A BEEPING NOISE COMING FROM THE SCREEN AND THE SCREEN WENT BLANK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTONATION HONDA FREMONT (5780 CUSHING PKWY, FREMONT, CA 94538, (510) 224-4801), BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THERE WAS A SOFTWARE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,063.

THE ENGINE OIL KEEPS INCREASING IN VOLUME CAUSING ME TO DRAIN ABOUT 1/2 QT ABOUT EVERY 1000-1500 MILES. IF YOU DO NOT KEEP A CHECK ON THIS IT WILL DEGRADE OR CAUSE ENGINE FAILURE. I LIVE IN GEORGIA WHICH HAS A MILD CLIMATE.

STARTED VEHICLE WHILE PARKED IN PARKING LOT TO DRIVE HOME, AND ALL VEHICLE ASSIST AND OTHER WARNING SYSTEMS WENT OFF, ALSO RECEIVED WARNING ALL SYSTEMS UNABLE TO INITIALIZE. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. DEALER REPLACED STEERING ANGLE SENSOR.

I HAD THE OIL CHANGED TODAY AND THE MECHANIC SAID I HAD GAS MIXED IN WITH THE OIL. HE SAID THIS COULD CAUSE ENGINE PROBLEMS AND STALLING. I AM AN 80 YEAR OLD LADY, AND I DON'T WANT TO GET STRANDED.

WHEN DRIVING, THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM (AUTO BRAKING) WILL SLAM ON THE BRAKES WHEN THERE IS NO THREAT. I MAY BE CRUISING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WITH NO VEHICLES AROUND AND SUDDENLY THE CAR IS BRAKING HARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE CRUISE CONTROL AND ROAD DEPARTURE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THERE WAS ALSO A MITIGATION SYSTEM FAILURE AND A BEEPING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE DRIVER COASTED INTO A PARKING LOT AND DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL, AND ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS TURNED OFF. THE CONTACT CALLED BUERKLE HONDA (3360 HEY 61 N VADNAIS HEIGHTS, MN 55110, (651) 490-6600) WHERE AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER OR AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,500.

ON 9/23/19 PARKED THE VEHICLE. SHUT OFF VEHICLE WHILE STILL IN DRIVE. THE VEHICLE DID NOT ALERT ME THAT THE CAR WAS NOT IN PARK. GOT OUT OF CAR AND DOOR LOCKED LIKE EVERYTHING WAS OKAY - NO OTHER BEEPS OR NOTIFICATIONS. VEHICLE ROLLED OUT OF DRIVEWAY AND HIT A TREE CAUSING SIGNIFICANT REAR DAMAGE (THANKFULLY DID NOT HIT ANY OTHER VEHICLE OR PEDESTRIAN). BROUGHT TO HONDA DEALERSHIP AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING ALTHOUGH I EXPLAINED THAT THE WARNING INDICATORS WORK INTERMITTENTLY. FINALLY ON 10/2/19 I VIDEOTAPED AN INCIDENT WHERE IT DID NOT ALERT ME IN ANYWAY WHEN I SHUT THE CAR OFF AND LEFT IN THE DRIVE GEAR (IMAGES FROM VIDEO ATTACHED). HONDA STATES EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE SHOULD ALWAYS BE ENGAGED; HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT FIX THE FACT THAT THE SAFETY NOTIFICATIONS ARE NOT WORKING AS EXPECTED. DEFINITELY A VEHICLE SAFETY ISSUE.

I WAS TRAVELLING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH ON LOCAL HIGHWAY. NO CARS DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF ME FOR A 1/4 MILE. IT HAD RAINED OVERNIGHT AND THE ROAD CONDITIONS WERE SLIGHTLY DAMP BUT NO PUDDLES. I WAS CROSSING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AND THE CAR'S 'BRAKE' ALARM (FORWARD COLLISION SYSTEM) FALSELY TRIGGERED ON THE DASHBOARD AND INSTANTLY SLAMMED ON MY BRAKES AND BROUGHT MY 2018 CRV TO A DEAD STOP. MY CARGO WENT FLYING FORWARD AND MY HEAD JERKED FORWARD HARD. I WAS WEARING MY SEAT BELT. NO CAR WAS IMMEDIATELY BEHIND ME OTHERWISE THEY WOULD HAVE FOR SURE CRASHED INTO MY CAR. I CONTACTED MY LOCAL HONDA DEALER AND BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN THAT AFTERNOON. THEY SAID THEY WOULD RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON IT. THEY CALLED ME BACK THE NEXT DAY AND SAID THAT THERE "WERE NO TROUBLE CODES STORED IN THE VEHICLE". THEY SAID THEY "CONTACTED HONDA AND THERE WERE 'NO KNOWN ISSUES' AND THERE WAS NOTHING ELSE THEY COULD DO FOR ME". THEY SUGGESTED I TURN OFF THE FORWARD COLLISION SYSTEM IF I WAS CONCERNED. THIS IS CRAZY AND HAZARDOUS. THE VEHICLE SHOULD NOT PUT ME (AND OTHERS) IN DANGER LIKE THIS. THANK GOD MY WIFE AND KIDS WERE NOT IN THE VEHICLE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THANK GOD NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME. I PRAY THEY AREN'T WHEN THIS HAPPENS AGAIN. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOME SORT OF RECALL OR WARNING REGARDING THIS.

VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING WESTBOUND ON I-90 IN MASSACHUSETTS IN THE TRAVEL LANE AT BETWEEN 65-68 MPH. THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS NOT ENGAGED; THE LANE KEEPING ASSIST FEATURE WAS NOT ACTIVE. IT WAS AROUND 7:00 PM. NO CARS IN THE PASSING LANE. A TRACTOR TRAILER WAS ABOUT 200-300 FEET IN FRONT. THE DASHBOARD CHIMED AND DISPLAYED THE FOLLOWING THREE WARNING MESSAGES: COLLISION MITIGATION BRAKING SYSTEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL, AND LANE KEEPING ASSIST SYSTEM. THE FIRST TIME EACH MESSAGE WAS DISPLAYED A CHIME SOUNDED; THE MESSAGES CONTINUED TO ROTATE THROUGH THE DISPLAY FOR THE NEXT THIRTY MINUTES. THE MESSAGES STOPPED WHEN WE GOT HOME AND PUT THE CAR IN THE GARAGE IN PARK. ADDITIONALLY, THE LIGHT FOR 'BRAKE SYSTEM' (NEAR THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE) CAME ON. I BROUGHT THE CAR IN TODAY FOR SERVICE (IT JUST HAPPENED THAT IT WAS SCHEDULED FOR AN OIL CHANGE); I TOLD THE SERVICE ADVISOR ABOUT WHAT HAD HAPPENED; THE TECHNICIAN WORKING ON THE VEHICLE SAID NO CODES WERE BEING DISPLAYED. HE TOOK IT FOR A RIDE BUT COULD NOT GET THE MESSAGES TO COME UP (IT ONLY HAPPENED ONE TIME). THE SERVICE ADVISOR SAID IT WAS PROBABLY 'JUST A GLITCH'.

NO HEAT WHEN OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE IS BELOW 20 DEGREES

MY 2018 HONDA CR V HAS THE 1.5 LITRE TURBO ENGINE. I HAVE REVIEWED SEVERAL HUNDRED COMPLAINTS THAT HAVE BEEN FILED REGARDING THE MIXING OF THE FUEL/GAS WITH THE ENGINE OIL. THE ISSUE SEEMS TO BE MORE PREVALENT IN THE NORTH, HOWEVER, I HAVE THE SAME ISSUE HERE IN OKLAHOMA. UPON ENGINE START THERE IS A STRONG ODOR OF GASOLINE COMING FROM THE REAR PASSENGER SEATING. I HAVE ALSO NOTED INCREASE OIL LEVELS IN THE ENGINE CRANKCASE. ALSO THE SMELL OF GASOLINE COMING FROM THE OIL DIPSTICK. I AM WRITING TO INQUIRE IF HONDA MOTOR COMPANY INTENDS TO DO SOMETHING TO REMEDY THIS ISSUE. THE SMELL STARTS AT THE MOMENT THE ENGINE IS STARTED.. THE CAR CAN BE STATIONARY AND I CAN STILL NOTICE THE SMELL OF FUEL. PROLONGED EXPOSURE OF FUEL IN THE CRANKCASE WILL CERTAINLY REDUCE THE LIFE OF THESE ENGINES. PLEASE ADVISE ME AS TO HOW I CAN RESOLVE THIS MATTER WITH HONDA? THANK YOU.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT NOTICED A FUEL ODOR COMING FROM THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS DARK OIL IN THE CRANK CASE. THE MECHANIC CHANGED THE OIL, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HONDA OF EL CERRITO (866)-414-9404, LOCATED AT 11755 SAN PABLO AVE, EL CERRITO, CA 94530)WHERE THE TECHNICIAN CHANGED THE OIL AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO FAILURE WITH THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER WHO PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND KEPT THE VEHICLE FOR MORE TESTS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 4,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON A MAIN ROAD, I WENT THROUGH AN INTERSECTION WITH NO CARS IN FRONT OR TO THE SIDE OF ME, BUT 2 CARS CLOSE BEHIND ME. WHEN I WENT THROUGH THE INTERSECTION, MY BRAKE LIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING AND THEN MY CAR STOPPED ITSELF ON IMPACT. THE 2 CARS BEHIND ME SWERVED AROUND ME ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES THAT SHOULD HAVE SET OFF THE AUTOMATIC BREAKING AND THE WEATHER CONDITIONS WERE FINE.

I BOUGHT A HONDA CR-V 2018 LAST YEAR IN MAY. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAVE 8000 MILES ON IT. NOW I RECENTLY NOTICE THAT WHEN I AM STARTING THE CAR WHEN PRESSING ON THE BRAKE AND PRESSING THE START BUTTON. IT WILL TRY TO START BUT FAILS. IT SEEMS YOU NEED TO DO THIS NUMEROUS TIMES TO START THE VEHICLE. THIS HAVE BEEN HAPPENING TO ME IN THE LAST 3 DAYS. I CALLED THE HONDA DEALER ABOUT IT AND SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THEM TOMORROW.

REOCCURRING ISSUE OF THE INFOTAINMENT SCREEN EITHER FREEZING OR GOING BAZERK WHILE DRIVING. EITHER NOTHING WORKS, INCLUDING THE POWER BUTTON TO TURN THE WHOLE DISPLAY OFF, OR THE BUTTON WORKS, CUTS THE DISPLAY OFF AND THE RADIO CONTINUES TO PLAY, OR THE DISPLAY STARTS FLASHING BETWEEN SCREENS, ADJUSTING THE BRIGHTNESS, BEEPING CONTINUOUSLY AND SOMETIMES MAKING PHONE CALLS ALL WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO STOP IS TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND CUT THE CAR OFF. THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH MULTIPLE PEOPLE POSTING HERE..... WHO KNOWS HOW MANY PEOPLE AREN'T GOING THRU THIS PROCESS TO REPORT. ISN'T THIS DISTRACTION WHILE DRIVING DANGEROUS ENOUGH TO BE INVESTIGATED AND PROVIDE FOR A RECALL. I HAVE A VIDEO BUT DON'T KNOW HOW TO LOAD IT. IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE AND AFTER THE VIDEO I TOOK, BUT I'LL USE THE DATE OF THE VIDEO. HOPING THAT POSTING TO THIS SITE WILL BRING SOME ACTION.

OIL DILUTION BAD GAS SMELL FROM OIL CAN CAUSE A FIRE CAR ONLY HAS 3750 MILES

2018 HONDA CRV WAS SUDDENLY FLASHED 'BRAKE MESSAGE' ON DASH AND BRAKE APPLIED BY THEMSELF WITH MY FOOT ON ACCELERATION PEDAL DURING ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR DRIVING ON FREEWAY, THERE WAS NO CARS IN FRONT OF THIS VEHICLE. I DROPPED THIS CAR TO HONDA DEALER ON SAME DAY THIS MALFUNCTION HAPPENED (SEP. 13, 2019), AND PICKED UP SEP 16, 2019. THEY FOUND ERROR CODE, CHECKED BATTERY, HARD RESET THE ASSOCIATED SYSTEM.

GAS LEAKS INTO THE ENGINE WHILE I'M DRIVING, WHICH WILL INEVITABLY ENGINE FAILURE AND THE CAR WILL STALL WHILE DRIVING, THIS POSES A RISK FOR MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISION.. THE HONDA DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IS AWARE OF THIS AND RECOMMENDED AN OIL CHANGE. 48 HOURS LATER MY OIL IS COMPLETELY DILUTED WITH GASOLINE AGAIN. THERE IS A STRONG GAS ODOR IN THE CABIN OF MY CAR WHICH IS A HEALTH HAZARD TO MYSELF AND MY 2 SMALL CHILDREN, ONE WITH ASTHMA. I'VE CONTACTED HONDA OF AMERICA SEVERAL TIMES REGARDING THIS ISSUE WITH NO SOLUTION.

ALL ELECTRONICS STARTED TO FAIL, STEERING JAMMED, LOST CONTROL OF VEHICLE. SERVICE CENTER DIAGNOSED PROBLEM TO BROKEN POWER STEERING MOTOR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ENTERING A HIGHWAY. AUG 24TH 2019. ELECTRONIC BRAKE FAILURE AND CAR WOULDN'T START - SEP 11, 2019.

AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND DIFFERENT ROADS MY CAR SEEMS TO BRAKE FOR NO REASON NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME AND NO OBSTRUCTIONS OF RADAR OR CAMERA. THE SCREEN STARTS FLASHING BRAKE BRAKE BRAKE AND THEN PROCEEDS TO STOP THE VEHICLE, EVEN ON THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. HAVE BEEN TO THE DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY CLAIM THERE'S NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY DANGEROUS, AND I FEAR FOR MY OWN SAFETY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH A CRASH MITIGATION SYSTEM. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE APPROACHED TWO STEEL PLATES IN THE ROAD. THE CONTACT STARTED TO BRAKE NEAR A CONSTRUCTION ZONE; HOWEVER, THE CRASH MITIGATION SYSTEM SUDDENLY STOPPED THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE ALMOST CAUSED THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE TO BE REAR ENDED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT BELIEVED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW SINCE THE SAME FAILURE OCCURRED WITH HIS SON WHO HAD THE SAME MODEL VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,700.

MY RECENT ENCOUNTER WAS ON A TWO LANE ROAD TRAVELING AT 40 MPH. NO CARS WERE IN FRONT OF ME AND A CAR WAS ABOUT 2 CAR LENGTHS BEHIND ME. A MINI SCHOOL BUS WAS HEADING IN THE OTHER DIRECTION ABOUT 2 CAR LENGTHS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAD MY TWO GRANDCHILDREN IN THE CAR WITH ME, WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THE CAR BREAKED HARD SENDING ALL MY THINGS ON THE FLOOR AND SCARRING MY GRANDDAUGHTERS. I WAS SHAKEN MYSELF BEING NEARLY REAR ENDED BY THE CAR BEHIND ME. I TOOK IT IN TO ATLANTIC HONDA, AND WAS TOLD ' NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND ON THE COMPUTER AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE'. 'NEVER HAD ANYONE COMPLAIN OF THIS'. I ALSO ADVISED THEM, THE BREAK LIGHT FLASHES 'OUT OF THE BLUE' WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH NO OTHER CARS AROUND. I WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. I FEEL ON EDGE DRIVING THE CAR NOT KNOWING IF IT WILL BREAK UNEXPECTEDLY!

SAFETY LATCH OF THE HOOD FAILED AND THE HOOD CAME UP WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS HAPPENED WHILE ACCELERATING AND REACHING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. THANKS TO LOW SPEED AND NO TRAFFIC I COULD MANAGE TO STOP THE VEHICLE WITHOUT FATAL CONSEQUENCES. I HAVE GONE TO REVISION IN THE DEALERSHIP AND I HAVE CONTACTED AMERICAN HONDA, THEY ARGUED THE VEHICLE PASSED THE MECHANICAL TEST AND THEY REFUSED ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE UNSAFE, POOR DESIGN OF THE LATCHING SYSTEM. IT WORTH TO MENTION THAT: 1- THIS VEHICLE HAS THE HOOD RELEASE INSIDE, ACCESSIBLE FOR EXAMPLE TO KIDS, BUT THERE IS NO WARNING INDICATOR AT ALL WHEN THE SAFETY LATCH IS ACTIVATED, OR THE HOOD IS NOT FULLY CLOSED. 2- THIS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE DASHBOARD LIGHT WARNINGS SIMILAR TO THE ALERT FOR LATERAL DOORS OR REAR DOOR AJAR, EVEN THOUGH THE LATTER CAN BE SIGNIFICANTLY LESS DANGEROUS THAN A HOOD OPENING INCIDENT. 3- THE HOOD SAFETY LATCH CLEARLY FUNCTIONS PROPERLY WHEN LIFTED UP UNDER NORMAL CIRCUMSTANCES WITH THE CAR STOPPED. HOWEVER, THE SAFETY LATCH FAILS DUE TO CONTINUOUS CHANGES IN THE DIRECTION AND MAGNITUDE OF THE RESULTANT FORCES DUE TO VIBRATIONS, WIND LOAD, ETC. THIS LATCH CANNOT BE CONSIDERED A 'SAFETY' DEVICE, IF IT DOESN'T NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY UNDER ALL REASONABLE CONDITIONS. 4- THIS 2018 YEAR VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW BY THE CURRENT OWNER, AND ALL MAINTENANCE CARE IS UPDATED AND ALWAYS COMPLETED BY OFFICIAL (I.E. LICENSED) HONDA SERVICE CENTERS.

GASOLINE IS LEAKING INTO THE ENGINE OIL. A WARRANTY REPAIR WAS DONE JAN 2019 TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM BUT IN SEPT 2019 THE ENGINE OIL WAS NOTED TO BE ABOVE FULL AND SMELL OF GASOLINE. THE CAR WAS BROUGHT IN FOR FURTHER REPAIR BUT NO FURTHER REPAIR IS AVAILABLE AND BECAUSE HONDA CLAIMS THIS TO BE "A NORMAL CHARACTERISTIC" OF THE CAR, NO OIL CHANGE WAS DONE EITHER. HOWEVER, THE HONDA 2018 CR-V MANUAL CLEARLY POINTS OUT THAT OVER FILLING THE OIL MAY LEAD TO LEAKS OR ENGINE DAMAGE. COPIES OF THE REPAIR RECEIPT AND HONDA OIL OVERFILL WARNING ARE ATTACHED.

MY WINDSHIELD DEVELOPED A CRACK IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE JUST ABOVE ONE OF THE AIR VENTS (IN MARCH 2019) OVERNIGHT WHILE PARKED IN THE PARKING LOT TO MY APARTMENT COMPLEX. NO OTHER CARS WERE NEAR IT FOR THE CRACK TO OCCUR, AND THERE WERE NO SIGNS OF IMPACT. I TOOK IT INTO HONDA (HONDA OF LISLE) THE NEXT DAY TO HAVE THEM INSPECT IT AND THE DEALERSHIP DEEMED IT "NON-IMPACT" CAUSED BASED ON THEIR INVESTIGATION. HOWEVER, SINCE IT WAS WINDSHIELD DAMAGE, THEY TOLD ME THEY HAD TO SUBMIT IT TO THEIR REGIONAL DIRECTOR WHO WOULD MAKE THE FINAL CALL AND DETERMINE WHETHER IT WOULD BE COVERED BY THE HONDA AS A SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCE UNDER THE WARRANTEE (THE CAR WAS ONLY TWO MONTHS OLD). AFTER SUBMITTING IT TO HIM, CUSTOMER RELATIONS INFORMED ME, SEVERAL DAYS LATER, THAT THE REGIONAL DIRECTOR DEEMED THE CRACK "IMPACT CAUSED" BASED ON HIS VISUAL INSPECTION OF THE PICTURES THAT THE HONDA DEALERSHIP HAD SENT HIM, CONTRADICTING THEIR DECISION. I APPEALED AND GOT A SECOND OPINION FROM SAFELITE, WHO DEEMED THE CRACK NON-IMPACT CAUSED AS WELL. AMERICAN HONDA REJECTED MY APPEAL. I ALSO DISCOVERED A FORUM DISCUSSING SIMILAR CRACKS OCCURRING ON THE SAME MAKE AND MODEL. I RELAYED THIS INFORMATION AND HONDA STILL REFUSED TO COVER THE WINDSHIELD UNDER THE WARRANTEE. I WROTE A LETTER TO CORPORATE, AND HONDA AGAIN, REFUSED. I ASKED CUSTOMER RELATIONS UNDER WHAT CONDITIONS HONDA WOULD COVER WINDSHIELD DAMAGE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE DEALERSHIP ALONE WOULD HAVE TO RULE IT A DEFECT. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALE

THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM ENGAGES WHEN THERE IS NO IMMINENT DANGER. SOMETIMES IT OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IN FRONT EXITS ONTO AN OFF-RAMP AND SLOWS DOWN. EVEN THOUGH THEY ARE NOT IN FRONT OF MY CAR, THE AUTO BRAKING TRIGGERS. IN OTHER SITUATIONS THERE HAS BEEN NO DISCERNABLE REASON FOR THE BRAKES TO TRIGGER, CREATING A SIGNIFICANT DANGER OF BEING REAR-ENDED BY THE CAR FOLLOWING ME. IN THE LATTER CASE, IT HAPPENS MORE FREQUENTLY WHEN THERE THERE IS A COMMERCIAL-SIZE TRUCK IN THE RIGHT LANE - USUALLY NOT SLOWING DOWN OR MANEUVERING IN ANY APPARENT WAY.

2018 HONDA CRV EX: MILEAGE 20,165. UPON ACCELERATING WHILE PULLING THE CAR ON MAIN ROADWAY, THE CAR DROPPED FROM 50MPH TO 25MPH AND THEN WOULDN'T REACH PAST 35MPH, THE ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED AND STARTED TO BLINK. PUSHING THE GAS PEDAL ONLY AGGRAVATED THE SITUATION. ABOUT A MILE LATER THE CAR STOPPED/STALLED TRYING TO GO UP A HILL. I TURNED OFF CAR, WAITED 10 MIN AND RESTARTED. WAS ABLE TO GO ANOTHER 1 MILE TO HOME, I DID NOT ATTEMPT TO GO OVER 25 MPH, BECAUSE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL BLINKING. THE NEXT MORNING, I DROVE THE CAR TO THE DEALER, BUT MADE SURE I DID NOT GO OVER 30MPH, AS I DID NOT WANT IT TO STALL. DURING THE DRIVE THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL BLINKING. WAITING TO HEAR BACK.FROM THE DEALER. I BELIEVE THIS IS A POWERTRAIN ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED BY HONDA AND ALL 2017/2018 CRVS HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN CHINA AND EUROPE, BUT NOT THE US.

AFRAID THIS CAR WILL CATCH ON FIRE! ENGINE OIL IS GETTING DILUTED WITH FUEL DUE TO THE TURBO ENGINES ON THE 2017 -2018 HONDA CRVS. I NOTIFIED STEVENSON HENDRICK HONDA IN DECEMBER 2018 OF A FUEL SMELL IN CABIN OF CAR WHILE DRIVING AND AN MIL (MALFUNCTION ERROR CAME UP & ALL SAFETY FEATURES WERE DISABLED UNTIL I CUT CAR OFF AT NEXT STOP AND RESTARTED. DEALERSHIP CHECKED THE CAR ON 12/24/18 AND SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP AGAIN DUE TO FUEL SMELL IN CABIN & WE HAD CHECKED OIL & THE DIPSTICK REAKED OF FUEL & WAS WAY OVER THE HIGH MARK. TOOK CAR ON 8/10/19 AND I MADE SERVICE MANAGER TONY CHECK OIL IN FRONT OF ME TO VERIFY FUEL WAS IN IT. THEY SAID THEY CHANGED COMPUTER MODULE AND DID SOME UPDATES TO FIX & TOLD ME TO BRING IT BACK ON 8/1/717 AT 8;00 FOR INSTALL OF SPARK PLUGS THEY ORDERED. DROVE 40 MILES BACK HOME AND FUEL WAS ALREADY IN THE OIL AGAIN! CALLED DEALERSHIP BACK TO LET THEM KNOW I WANT THE OIL/OIL FILTER CHANGED AGAIN ON 8/17/19 WHEN THEY DO SPARK PLUGS AND THAT WE WILL CONTINUE TO CHECK OIL IN CAR. I CONTACTED HONDA AS WELL & SPOKE TO "CAT". SHE WASN'T HELPFUL AT ALL AND REFUSED TO TELL ME WHY THE SOFTWARE UPDATE NOTICE THEY SENT DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT FUEL DILUTION IN THE OIL. IT ONLY REFERRED TO ERROR CODES & WHIRLING NOISE IN ENGINE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THIS PROBLEM HAS ONLY BEEN HAPPENING IN "COLD WEATHER REGIONS" AND THAT I AM THE FIRST THEY HAVE HEARD OF. I TOLD THEM THAT IF PEOPLE DON'T CHECK THEIR OIL OR IF THE DEALERSHIP DOESN'T TELL THE CO

I CONTINUE TO GET RANDOM "LANE DEPARTURE" WHEN DRIVING DOWN A NORMAL ROAD. HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY CAN NOT REPEAT THE PROBLEM. TODAY I WAS DRIVING ON A ONE WAY STREET IN CITY TRAFFIC WITH NOBODY IN FRONT OF ME AND SEVERAL BEHIND ME, AS I WAS GOING THROUGH A SIGNAL LIGHT INTERSECTION THE CRV WENT INTO COLLISION ALERT WITH A WARNING ON THE DASH AND BEEPING, IT SLAMMED ON THE BRAKES AND I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. THERE WAS NOBODY IN FRONT OF ME OR COMING FROM EITHER SIDE OF THE CROSS STREET. THIS HAS HAPPEN ONE TIME BEFORE WHEN I WAS PASSING THROUGH A CONSTRUCTION ZONE AND ONE LANE HAD CONES CUTTING A TWO LANE DOWN TO ONE LANE. IT AGAIN SLAMMED AN THE BRAKES AS IF I WAS LEAVING THE ROAD. I ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WITH THE AUTO DIMMING HEADLIGHTS THAT DIM WHEN THEY SHOULD NOT AND GO TO BRIGHT SOMETIMES WHEN MEETING TRAFFIC AND SHOULD BE DIM. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR THIS ALSO MORE THAN ONE TIME AND THEY COULD NOT REPEAT THE PROBLEM. I ALSO GET RANDOM MESSAGES THAT POWER HAS BEEN LOST TO MY INFORMATION CENTER (PICTURES INCLUDED). I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN THIS HONDA CRV AND THE DEALER SEEMS THEY ARE JUST WANTING ME TO BE OUT OF WARRANTY OR DON'T CARE.

THE COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM PART OF HONDA SENSING WILL AUTOMATICALLY AND RANDOMLY ENGAGE WHILE DRIVING, CAUSING THE BREAKS TO BE SELF APPLIED ABRUPTLY EVEN WHEN THERE IS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND ALMOST CAUSED MULTIPLE ACCIDENTS. HONDA DOESN'T BELIEVE THERE IS A PROBLEM. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES ALREADY.
