    Odometer Fraud. The contact purchased a 2009 HONDA CR-V. It was discovered that there was a mileage discrepancy. The vehicle was a private sale. At the time of purchase, the vehicle mileage was 133,000 and at the time of running the VIN on carfax, it was discovered that the mileage was 314,000.

    My front passenger seat weight sensor is faulty and shows as "OFF" when a large passenger is in the seat. An independent service center has scanned and confirmed the faulty sensor. I see CRV recalls for both the sensors and airbags, but my VIN does not return a result.

    The contact owns a 2009 Honda CR-V. The contact stated the clock and date were inoperable. The contact stated the clock was years ahead and the date was incorrect. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer but was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle not was repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 26,000.

  6. Electrical system, Dec 8, 2022

    The locks on all the doors in my 2009 Honda CR-V EX have been randomly clicking on and off as I drive for the last 6 months. One day I parked the car and tried to open the door and it was locked and I could not unlock it from the inside, I re-inserted the key into the ignition and the alarm horn started sounding but I was able to open the door and exit the car. The internet shows that there was a class-action suit settlement for 2008-2011 regarding the door locks that expired in 2015. I contacted the dealership and they said since my VIN was not listed on their website, they would charge me $175.00 to diagnose the problem and then would let me know if they could fix it so I followed the dirctions on the web-site to file a complaint with NHTSA. @ the door locks randomly swtich on and off as the car is moving @ I transport my infant and toddler grandchildren in the car and am concerned about the car doors randomly unlocking @ I have not had the vehicle inspected by the dealership as they will charge me $175 for diagnosis but the problem seems to be a duplicate of the complaints I have seen on line regarding the Recall of 2008-2011 CRVs @ No warning of the problem was experienced prior to June 2022

    Bottom Line Up Front: The service advisor at Chapman Honda here in Tucson told me this morning (16 Nov) that passenger door locks and hatchback locks that freeze in the locked position (and can NOT be opened by anyone inside or out) sometimes happen with older Hondas (over 10 years). Really? This is a VERY serious safety issue. If what the advisor said is true, then there are potentially many thousands of vehicles that need to be immediately recalled. Timeline: On 11 Nov 21, without any warning whatsoever, the door locks in our 2009 Honda CR-V froze in the locked position. Passenger door and hatchback. My wife has serious back issues and we are thankful this did not happen, for example, when I was driving her to a medical appointment. I immediately called Chapman Honda, Tucson and was able to set up a service appointment for 9:00am, Saturday, 13 Nov. 13 Nov: As soon as I drove the car into the service bay, the frozen locks "un-froze" and operated correctly. The service advisor said he would have the doors checked anyway. They lubricated the doors and I left the dealership. 15 Nov: On the way to pick up a handicapped friend to take her to lunch the same door locks froze AGAIN. Fortunately, it happened before her friend was picked up; she had to sit in the back seat. My wife was very worried her friend would be trapped in the back as well. That same afternoon my wife took the CR-V back to Chapman Honda and left it for overnight servicing. 16 Nov: The service advisor called to say door lock actuators in both front doors would have to be replaced. Cost: $952.05! (including a 10% veteran’s discount) For the greater good and safety of all “older” Honda CR-V owners, it would seem this door lock actuator issue merits investigation.

I HAD DRIVEN HER CAR FOR ONE HOUR (A 44 MILE TRIP), RETURNED HOME, TURNED OFF THE CAR, TOOK THE KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION AND WENT INSIDE THE HOUSE. ABOUT TEN MINUTES LATER, ONE OF MY DAUGHTERS HEARD A CAR ALARM, WE LOOKED OUTSIDE AND SAW FLAMES SHOOTING OUT OF THE FRONT OF THE CAR. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT CAME AND PUT OUT THE FIRE, BUT IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS. THE FIREMEN SAID THAT IT STARTED NEAR THE BATTERY AREA, BUT WE DO NOT KNOW WHAT CAUSED IT THERE WAS NO SIGN OF ANY PROBLEM WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT. NO INDICATOR LIGHTS ON AND IT WAS RUNNING GREAT. THIS WAS A VERY FRIGHTENING EXPERIENCE AS I COULD HAVE PARKED THE CAR IN OUR GARAGE OR IT COULD HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING IT HOME ON THE MASSACHUSETTS TURNPIKE, WHICH IS ISOLATED.

    TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ALL THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS WERE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATORS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.

    DRIVERS DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR- MY DOORS WOULD NOT AUTO LOCK ANY LONGER WHEN BEGINNING TO DRIVE. THE AUTO SYSTEM CONTINUED TO TRY AUTO LOCK WHILE I WAS DRIVING CLICKING BACK ON AND OFF TRYING TO GET THE DOORS TO LOCK WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. ALSO MY DOORS WOULD NO LONGER LOCK WITH THE KEY REMOTE. MY VIN NUMBER FELL OUTSIDE THE RANGE FOR 2009 CR-V'S WITH THE SAME REPORTED PROBLEM COVERED IN THE SVC BULLENTINE #14-083 FOR REPLACING THE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR. I BELIEVE OTHER VEHICLES ARE EFFECTED LIKE MINE WHICH IS A SAFETY ISSUE WHEN THE DOOR LOCK WILL NOT ACTIVATE WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENS ON CITY STREETS OR ON THE HIGHWAY.

    WE HAVE REPLACED THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS IN THIS CAR AT LEAST 9 TIMES SINCE PURCHASING IT IN 2010. TWICE IN THE PAST YEAR AND THE BULBS JUST BURNT OUT AGAIN WHILE MY WIFE WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK TODAY IN THE DARK. WE HAVE PURCHASES OEM, AFTERMARKET, LONG LIFE ETC WITH THE SAME RESULT. THE CAR WAS MOVING THIS TIME WHEN THE LIGHTS BURNED OUT. THIS VEHICLE IS MOSTLY DRIVEN ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT 100 MILES A DAY, WHICH IS WHERE MY WIFE WAS TODAY, AT APROXIMATELY 70 MPH. THE 2002-2004 CR-V HAD A RECALL AND THIS ISSUE IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET BUT THERE IS ZERO RESOLUTION. EVERY DEALERSHIP I CALL SAY THEY HAVE NOT SEEN THIS, WHICH IS HARD TO BELIEVE CONSIDERING THE INFORMATION OUT ON THE WEB. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE.

    DRIVERS DOOR LOCK STICKS AND SOMETIMES DOES NOT UNLOCK AND CAN'T EVEN UNLOCK MANUALLY. THEY DRIVERS SIDE BACK DOOR IS PERMANENTLY STUCK CLOSED, CAN'T UNLOCK MANUALLY OR WITH THE KEY FOB. BACK HATCH IS PERMANENTLY LOCKED CAN'T OPEN AT ALL BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY TO UNLOCK MANUALLY. THIS HAPPENS WEATHER THE CAR IS IN MOTION OR STATIONARY. I FEEL THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD BECAUSE IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT HOW AM I TO GET MY CHILDREN OUT OF THE CAR SAFELY AND QUICKLY. JUST RUN ALL THE WAY AROUND THE CAR UNTIL A DOOR OPENS? WHAT ABOUT MY DOG THAT I USUALLY HAVE IN THE BACK, HOW DO I GET HIM OUT? WHAT IF THE CAR IS ON FIRE OR IF THE CAR IS FLIPPED ON THE SIDE WITH THE WORKING LOCKS? IT'S CRAZY TO ME SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THIS IN MY VEHICLE YEAR YET THEY LEFT US OUT OF THE SETTLEMENT TO REPLACE THE LOCKS.

    THE FRONT DOOR ACCUTUATOR HAD TO BE REPLACED -- I LIVED WITH IT FOR A YEAR BEACUSE IT WAS SO EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE -- THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM FOR HONDA AND THEY HAVE DONE NOTHING ABOUT IT AND NOT REACLLED THE 2009 CRV

    I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT IN REGARDS TO THE HONDA DOOR ACTUATOR SITUATION. IT IS EVIDENT THAT HONDA HAS NEGLIGENTLY OMITTED A VAST MAJORITY OF AFFECTED VEHICLES IN THEIR RECENT LIABILITY LAWSUIT RECALL. I PERSONALLY HAVE HAD SEVERAL REPAIRS ON MY 2009 CRV DOOR LOCKS SINCE I PURCHASED IT NEW IN 2009 AND AM AGAIN EXPERIENCING CONTINUOUS PROBLEMS WITH THE DRIVERS SIDE DOOR LOCK ACTUATOR. BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE AND NUMEROUS OTHER COMMENTS FROM SEVERAL SOCIAL MEDIA OUTLETS OF 2009 CRV OWNERS, HONDA HAS NEGLIGENTLY AND PURPOSEFULLY OMITTED A VAST MAJORITY OF VEHICLES IN THEIR RECALL IN AN ATTEMPT TO LESSEN THE IMPACT OF THEIR LIABILITY. *TR

    THE FIRST OCCURRENCE INVOLVED THE RIGHT FRONT DOOR LOCK AND THE TAILGATE LOCK. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO LOCK THE DOORS WITH EITHER THE KEY FOB OR THE INTERIOR BUTTON LOCK,NEITHER DOOR WOULD LOCK. AFTER OPERATING THE CAR AND STOPPING ,THE DOORS WOULD MYSTERIOUSLY LOCK THEN. *TR
