Structure, Apr 9, 2025
The rear passenger-side lower control arm mounting point on my 2010 Honda CR-V has rotted out due to severe corrosion. This has caused a loud clicking noise when driving over uneven surfaces and has compromised the structural integrity of the suspension system. The problem was confirmed by an independent mechanic, who stated that the control arm is no longer properly secured due to rust damage at the mounting point. The vehicle was also inspected by a Honda dealership, which noted frame perforation in and beyond the recall area related to NHTSA Recall No. 23V-228. Despite this, American Honda has refused to address the issue, stating that the corrosion does not fall within the defined recall area. This failure presents a significant safety risk, as the suspension could potentially detach while driving. The issue first became noticeable in mid-March 2025 when the clicking noise started and has persisted since. There were no prior warning lights or error messages. The corrosion is visible and the affected components are available for inspection upon request. The condition has been documented via dealer and mechanic reports, photographs, and video.

American Honda Motor Co., Inc. issued a recall for our 2010 CRV. The recall identified a flaw in the design whereby "corrosion can form in the rear frame due to the accumulation of road de-icing agents mixed with mud and water. As a result, the rear frame can deteriorate, and the rear trailing arm may fall off. A detached rear trailing arm can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash or injury." (NHSTA Recall Number 23V-228) After the work was performed, we were told by a representative of the dealership’s service department that the vehicle would not pass state motor vehicle safety inspection because of the work they had performed. Over the course of August, 2023 I made more than 20 attempts (15 by email and many more by phone) to reach Honda representatives to ask them to fully repair the car so that it could pass inspection, or to repurchase the vehicle per the terms of the recall notice. Honda declined, stating that "if the brace had not been installed, we would be having a different conversation" (telephone conversation with a supervisor at Honda, August 31, 2023). The work that Honda did to address this safety recall was insufficient because, although the service team at the dealership was able to install a brace on the vehicle's rear frame, the vehicle will not pass state motor vehicle inspection, according to both Honda's dealership mechanic and an assessment by an independent certified mechanic who is familiar with this vehicle. Honda’s original design of certain parts of the frame is responsible for the excessive corrosion of the rear frame which is rendering the vehicle unsafe to drive. Since American Honda Motor Co. was not able to repair the vehicle to a safe operating condition that will continue to pass state inspection, and since the vehicle is otherwise in proper, safe, working condition, the company should have offered to repurchase the vehicle. The recall "fix" is insufficient to ensure driver safety.

Good afternoon, I'll try to keep this as brief as possible; I'm sure you can recontact me if you need additional information. This is not an incident, rather an issue related to the current recall 23V-228 for my 2010 Honda CRV. In 1/2023, the garage advised my Honda would not pass Maine State Safety Inspection due to the severe rust on the frame and where the left rear lower control arm (LCA) attached to the frame. They advised it could detach/break off, and my ability to steer safely to a stop would be affected. I took it to the Honda dealership and they confirmed it was unsafe to drive unless the rust and frame could be repaired. The dealer did not mention this was a common problem or any upcoming recalls for this issue. In 2/2023, I found a body shop that was able to repair the corrosion on the frame and the connection point for the LCA. I paid $1600, and the car passed Maine State Safety Inspection at the same garage that identified the problem. In 5/2023, I received the Honda safety recall referenced above, which states "you may be eligible for reimbursement if you paid for recall repairs out of pocket." I called the 888 # on the recall, received an email from American Honda, and replied to their email with the documents they requested, including the repair invoice. After recontacting American Honda a second time in 8/23, and a third time in 9/23, they advised they did not receive the document in 5/23, and I should resend the repair invoice. I received a call from American Honda on 10/16/2023, during which time they stated I was not eligible for reimbursement. This was due to the fact the repair invoice did not specifically state: “Trailing arm holder kit was replaced”. My case (#XXX) was closed. I read in a Part 574 Safety Recall Report, "Owners who have paid to have these repairs completed at their own expense will be eligible for reimbursement, in accord with the recall reimbursement plan on file with NHTSA." Do I qualify for reimbursement? INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

I received a recall notice in May 2023 about corrosion to the rear frame due to de-icing agents and I immediately called my local Honda dealer (AutoNation, Columbus GA). They told me they didn't have the parts or tools to fix the defect and to call back in 3 months. I called again today (8/14/23) and was told the same thing. They suggested I call around to other state-wide dealerships to look for one who was able to attend to the recall

My car was considered undrivable due to the corrosion recall. The delays in obtaining payment for my car are unacceptable. Honda has passed me to a third-party surrender partner, [XXX] , and they are also delinquent. Honda will not give me any contact information for [XXX] , so I am obviously frustrated. I am in the fortunate position of being able to acquire a replacement vehicle without having to wait for the payment but others may not be. So I am basically filing this complaint on behalf of others. Honda's treatment is so poor that I decided to avoid a Honda for my replacement.

On June 5th, 2023 my mother received a recall notice in the mail from Honda stating my, [XXX] ’s, car was recalled due to a chemical reaction causing aggressive rust to form under cars owned in the salt states. My car was manufactured and driven in New York prior to my ownership falling into the recalls category. I had previously had to pay out of pocket for a new catalytic converter and an oil pan that had been worn down by the rust referred to in this recall. I still have the receipts that state both parts were worn away by rust and needed to be replaced. I made an appointment with my local Honda dealership for June 8th, 2023 at which all they did was inspect my car and confirmed the rear frame was rusted to an unsafe point and needed to be replaced so they ordered the necessary parts. I came back to the dealership when the part came in on June 16th, after driving an unsafe car for a week. They worked on my car for over three hours to then inform me my car was impossible to fix due to such an intense case of rust that spread to the entirety of the underside of my car. The Honda dealership employees informed me that they would send the proof my vehicle could not be repaired to the appropriate parties and sent me on my way with no further information. After 3 weeks of no contact from anyone at Honda, I have had to commute to work in unsafe driving conditions because I am only [XXX] and can not rent a car. I called the Honda customer service number (800)9991009 and the customer service operator informed me my case hadn’t even been started. I then created a case #, and I[XXXX] was told my case would be reviewed and someone would contact me. I have called two times to get in contact with my case worker to be told she is unavailable and to leave a message. I am forced to continue driving my unsafe vehicle and have been unable to get in contact with anyone who can help me. It has now been a month and a half and I am forced to drive long distances in an unsafe car. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
