  1. Electrical system, Latches/locks/linkages, Oct 31, 2013

    THE POWER SWITCHES ON DOORS ARE EASY TO FAIL. THE ACTUATOR FAILED AND THE DOOR IS GETTING 'LOCKED' ITSELF WHICH COULD BE AN ISSUE IF CHILD IS LEFT IN THE CAR WITH KEY. I GOT THE FIRST INCIDENT OF THIS ISSUE ON MY PASSENGER - RIGHT DOOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO AND NOW GOT THE SAME ISSUE ON DOOR IN DRIVER SEAT. *TR

  2. Electrical system, Latches/locks/linkages, Oct 29, 2013

    MY DOOR LOCKS (ALL OF THEM) WOULD NOT STAY UNLOCKED LONGER THAN 2-3 SECONDS WHEN I WANT TO LEAVE THE VEHICLE. I HAVE CAREFULLY COORDINATE PRESSING THE UNLOCK BUTTON ON MY KEY WITH ACTUALLY OPENING THE DOOR. IF I AM NOT QUICK ENOUGH, I MUST REPEAT THE ACTION. THIS VERY CLEARLY LOOKS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE. AND BY NOW HONDA KNOWS THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CASE. WILL IT REQUIRE A MINIMUM NUMBER OF DEATHS OR INJURIES BECAUSE THE OCCUPANT CAN'T GET OUT OF THE VEHICLE IN TIME IN CASE OF AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE, ETC. ?? THE COST FOR THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ACTUATORS SHOULD NOT BE BORNE BY THE OWNERS. ( UP TO 4 @ $400 EACH). *TR

  3. Electrical system, Latches/locks/linkages, Oct 27, 2013

    MY GRANDSON WENT TO GET OUT OF THE PASSENGER FRONT SIDE OF CAR. IT WOULD NOT UNLOCK. HE HAD TO CLIMB OVER TO THE DRIVER SEAT TO GET OUT. THE NEXT DAY I WENT TO OPEN THE TRUNK AND IT WAS LOCK. I DO A LOT OF PICKING UP OF MY GRANDCHILDREN AND I'M AFRAID THAT THEY WILL GET STUCK IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. WHAT A SHAME TO HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT THIS AND THE COST I WILL HAVE TO INCUR. *TR

  9. Electrical system, Latches/locks/linkages, Oct 14, 2013

    FROM AUGUST 2013, RIGHT FRONT DOOR STARTED TO LOCK BY ITSELF RIGHT AFTER I UNLOCK IT. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER, THE RIGHT REAR DOOR STARTED TO KEEP LOCKING ITSELF WITH VERY LOUD NOISE WHEN THE SPEED OF CAR REACHES 20~30 MILES/HOUR. IT WAS VERY ANNOYING AND I FIXED THE CAR, WHICH COST ME OVER $300. HOWEVER, NOW THE LEFT REAR DOOR STARTED TO KEEP LOCKING WHENEVER THE CAR REACHES TO THE SPEED OF 20~30 MILES/HOUR. *TR

  10. Electrical system, Latches/locks/linkages, Oct 13, 2013

    FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS MY 2007 CR-V HAS HAD ISSUES WITH ELECTRIC DOOR-LOCK OPERATION 1)THE PASSENGER DOOR DOES NOT UNLOCK. UNLOCKING ALL DOORS VIA DRIVERS SIDE OR KEY FOB MOMENTARILY OPENS THE PASSENGER LOCK ? IT THEN AUTOMATICALLY LOCKS AGAIN IN 2-4 SECONDS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS THE PASSENGER CANNOT GET OUT IN THE EVENT OF AN EMERGENCY. DOOR HANDLE OPERATION DOES NOT OVER-RIDE THE LOCK ? AND THE 2-4 SECOND WINDOW ELECTRONICALLY UNLOCKING IS DIFFICULT TO SYNCHRONIZE HANDLE OPERATION IN THE BEST OF CIRCUMSTANCE. 2)IN ADDITION, ALL DOOR LOCKS CONTINUOUSLY LOCK?LOCK?.LOCK WHEN DRIVING FORWARD @ APPROXIMATELY 8-10KM/HOUR.

  13. Electrical system, Latches/locks/linkages, Oct 7, 2013

    IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS, SUDDENLY THE DOOR LOCKS WON'T REMAIN OPEN AFTER OPENING WITH KEY FOB. THE DOOR LOCKS WILL OPEN FOR A SECOND OR TWO, BUT THEN AUTOMATICALLY RETURN TO THE LOCKED POSITION. APPEARS TO BE AN ELECTRO-MECHANICAL MALFUNCTION WITH THE ELECTRONICS AND LOCKING ACTUATORS. THIS OCCURS ON ALL DOORS (FRONT AND REAR, INCLUDING TAILGATE DOOR), IN ALL SCENARIOS (ENGINE RUNNING; ENGINE NOT RUNNING; DOOR OPEN; DOOR SHUT; KEY IN IGNITION; KEY OUT OF IGNITION). IN ADDITION, THE DOOR LOCK/UNLOCK BUTTONS ON THE DOOR PANEL WILL NOT UNLOCK MANUALLY....IT'S LIKE THE DOOR LOCK BUTTON IS STUCK IN THE LOCKED POSITION.

  14. Electrical system, Structure, Oct 6, 2013

    THE PASSENGER DOOR REGULARLY DOES NOT REMAIN ELECTRONICALLY LOCKED DESPITE USING THE DRIVER DOOR SWITCH AND/OR REMOTE. THIS COULD POSE A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN IF INVOLVED IN VEHICULAR ACCIDENTS SINCE THE OCCUPANTS MAY BECOME ENTRAPPED WHEN THE DEFECT PREVENTS AN OCCUPANT FROM UNLOCKING THE DOORS. FURTHERMORE, THIS DEFECT JEOPARDIZES THE SAFETY OF VEHICLE OCCUPANTS SINCE NOT ALL DOORS ARE CAPABLE OF BEING MANUALLY UNLOCKED FROM THE EXTERIOR. INSTEAD, AND WITH THE EXCEPTION OF THE VEHICLES DRIVER DOOR, THE ELECTRONIC LOCKING MECHANISM IS THE ONLY METHOD AVAILABLE TO GAIN ACCESS TO THE VEHICLE FROM THE EXTERIOR - ONLY THE DRIVER'S DOOR HAS A SLOT ALLOWING USE OF A PHYSICAL KEY. WHILE THIS ISSUE RISKS THE SAFETY OF ALL OCCUPANTS, THE DOOR LOCK DEFECT POSES AN ACUTE RISK TO CHILDREN IN THE FRONT SEAT SINCE THEY MAY BE UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR FROM INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND, DUE TO THE LACK OF AN EXTERIOR LOCKING MECHANISM, AN INDIVIDUAL ON THE OUTSIDE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO UNLOCK THESE DOORS AND GAIN INTERIOR ACCESS. HONDA HAS APPARENTLY LONG BEEN WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE. DESPITE ITS LONGSTANDING KNOWLEDGE OF THIS DESIGN DEFECT, HONDA HAS ROUTINELY REFUSED TO REPAIR THE CARS WITHOUT CHARGE WHEN THE DEFECT MANIFESTS. AS A RESULT OF DEFENDANTS UNFAIR, DECEPTIVE AND/OR FRAUDULENT BUSINESS PRACTICES, OWNERS AND/OR LEASEES HAVE SUFFERED AN ASCERTAINABLE LOSS OF MONEY AND/OR PROPERTY AND/OR LOSS IN VALUE. THE UNFAIR AND DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICES COMMITTED BY HONDA HAS CAUSED MANY AGGRAVATING CIRCUMSTANCES. HAD I KNOWN ABOUT THIS DEFECT, AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE, I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT, OR WOULD HAVE PAID SUBSTANTIALLY LESS FOR IT. HONDA'S ALLEGED ACTIONS TO PROPERLY NOTIFY CONSUMERS OF THIS ISSUE - AND TO OFFER SUCCESSFUL REPAIR AT NO CHARGE TO CONSUMERS - HAS SERIOUSLY HARMED HONDAS REPUTATION. *TR

    PASSENGER SIDE DOOR: I CAN UNLOCK THE PASSENGER DOOR WITH THE KEY FOB AND THEY WILL RE-LOCK THEMSELVES WITHIN 2 SECONDS. FEW DAYS AGO I WENT INTO PHARMACY AND LEFT MY 8 YEAR OLD NIECE IN THE CAR TO PICK UP FEW THINGS. CAME BACK OUT IN ABOUT 5-7 MINUTES AND SHE WAS CRYING HER EYES OUT YELLING AND SCREAMING. I ASKED HER WHAT HAPPENED AS I ENTERED THROUGH THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR. SHE COULDN'T SPEAK FOR FEW MINUTES BECAUSE OF TEARS. SHE TOLD ME SHE COULDN'T OPEN THE DOOR AND SHE GOT SCARED.

NOW, THE DOOR ONLY LOCKS ITSELF, EVEN IF THE DOOR IS LOCKED, IT LOCKS AGAIN, BUT NOW A ANNOYING SQUEAKING LOUD NOISE. I CALLED THE DEALER AND THE COST IS $375.

WITH SMALL CHILDREN IN THE BACK, I AM UNABLE TO ENSURE THEIR SAFETY WITH AN UNLOCKED DOOR WHILE DRIVING, OR EVEN WHILE PARKED.

    FIRST ISSUE WAS RELATED TO FRONT PASSENGER-SIDE DOOR LOCK. THE LOCK CAN ONLY BE UNLOCKED FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OR WITH THE KEYLESS REMOTE. SEVERAL WEEKS LATER, THE REAR PASSENGER LOCK ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE BEGAN LOCKING AND UNLOCKING WHEN I WENT ABOVE OR BELOW 10 MILES PER HOUR. MY MECHANIC SAID IT WAS PROBABLY THE DOOR ACTUATOR AND THAT I SHOULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. I HAVE NOT DONE THAT TO DATE BECAUSE I VIEWED IT AS MORE NUISANCE THAN SAFETY RELATED. AFTER REVIEWING SOME ONLINE INFORMATION I REALIZED MY FIRST ASSUMPTION MAY BE INCORRECT. I CALLED HONDA NATIONAL TO SEE WHAT THEY HAD ON THIS ISSUE AND POSSIBLE REMEDIES. I WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS ONLY A THREE YEAR WINDOW FOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES; HOWEVER, SINCE THE CAR IS SIX YEARS OLD, I WILL BE FINANCIALLY RESPONSIBLE. *TR

    MY FIRST INCIDENT THE LAST WEEK OF AUGUST 2013 MY KEYLESS LOCK WOULD NOT LOCK MY CAR AND WOULD BEEP 3X WHEN I WENT TO LOCK IT. IT WOULD STILL STAY OPEN. AFTER A FEW TIMES OF OPENING AND CLOSING MY DOOR IT WAS FINE BUT STILL DID IT OVER A 2 DAY PERIOD THEN IT STOPPED AND WAS FINE. TODAY IS WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 4TH AND I PULL IN MY DRIVEWAY, TURN OFF MY CAR AND THE DOOR UNLOCKS AS USUAL, THEN IT LOCKED ITSELF IMMEDIATELY AFTER THAT. I USED MY KEY TO UNLOCK IT AND OPENED MY DOOR QUICKLY TO GET OUT. AS I EXITED MY CAR THE DOOR LOCKED ITSELF BEFORE I COULD EVEN CLOSE MY DOOR AND USE THE KEYLESS REMOTE. EVEN IF I MANUALLY UNLOCK MY DOOR IT WILL LOCK ITSELF IMMEDIATELY RIGHT AFTER. I SEARCHED ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2007 HONDA CRV. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND COULD RESULT IN DEATH. LET ME REMIND YOU IT IS SEPTEMBER AND VERY HOT OUTSIDE AND HOTTER IN THE CAR. THIS COULD TRAP ME OR MY PASSENGERS IN MY CAR AND I AM AFRAID. *JB

    THIS IS COMPLAINT FOR THE HONDA CR-V 2007 LX MODEL. THE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT LOCK, AFTER LOCKING THE CAR. SO EVERY TIME I LOCK THE CAR, THE DOOR LOCK WOULD RE-OPEN.
