I HAVE A 2010 HONDA CRV AND IT IS CONSUMING AN EXCESS AMOUNT OF OIL. I HAVE PREFORMED NUMEROUS TESTS WITH THE DEALERSHIP EVERY 1000 MILES PER THE TEST REQUIREMENTS FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. MY CRV IS CURRENTLY USING 26OZ OF OIL OR MORE EVERY 1000 MILES AND THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA STATE THAT IT IS WITHIN NORMAL RANGE. THEY STATED THAT I SHOULD CHECK MY OIL EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK. THEY STATED THAT IF I DO NOT CHECK MY OIL EVERY TIME I GET GAS, THE LEVEL MAY GO LOW AND MY ENGINE CAN BLOW UP. I DO NOT THINK IT IS REASONABLE TO HAVE TO CHECK MY OIL EVERY WEEK FOR A KNOWN ISSUE WITH HONDA CRVS FROM 2010 AND IT WOULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE IF MY CAR STOPS WORKING WHILE DRIVING.

THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL STALLED ENGINE INCIDENTS WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND ALSO STATIONARY AT A RED TRAFFIC LIGHT. NO ENGINE LIGHT HAS TURNED ON LEADING TO A WIRING ISSUE PERHAPS. NOT SO MUCH A MECHANICAL ISSUE MORE SO ELECTRICAL OF SOFTWARE RELATED. IT IS UNKNOWN WHEN THE ENGINE WILL TURN OFF. THERE ARE TWO RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH STALLED ENGINE FOR HONDA CR-V 2010. THERE ARE THE IGNITION CIRCUIT COUPLER FAILURE (11V004000) AND THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE (11V395000) HOWEVER MY VIN IS NOT APART OF THAT RECALL. I AM SCARED AND FEAR FOR MY LIFE THAT THIS STALLED ENGINE ISSUE WILL CAUSE MY CAR TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN WORST HAVE SOMEONE ELSE AND I GET KILLED.

MY CAR HAS MADE A METAL ON METAL GRINDING NOISE FOR FOUR YEARS ON A COLD STARTUP. THIS IS IN WARM OR COLD WEATHER, BUT ONLY IF THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR 6 HOURS OR LONGER. AFTER HAVING THIS DIAGNOSED AND FIXED TWICE BY MECHANICS (THE PROBLEM ALWAYS RETURNED), MY HONDA DEALER TOLD ME TODAY THAT IT IS THE VPC ACTUATOR. UPON SEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND IT IS A WELL KNOWN, DEFECTIVE PART FOR MANY HONDA ACCORDS AND CR-VS AND THAT IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ENGINE PROBLEMS. I'M DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS HAS NOT EVER BEEN COMMUNICATED TO ME AND THAT FIXING IT WILL COST ME $1,000 SINCE HONDA KNOWS THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART.

HESITATION ON HOT DAYS: FROM A STANDSTILL ATTEMPTING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC ON A HOT DAY CAN BE DANGEROUS. THE CAR HESITATES AND THEN ACCELERATES AT A RATE FAR SLOWER THAN NORMAL EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR PUSHED TO THE FLOOR. CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN TO TWO DEALERS, WITH NO POSITIVE RESULTS. THIS HAPPENS DAILY ON HOT DAYS.

VEHICLE MAKES A GRINDING OR COUGHING SOUND AT START-UP. IT DID NOT DO THIS WHEN BOUGHT USED IN 2012. NOW AT ABOUT 98000 MILES. START-UP NOISE HAPPENS EVERY TIME CAR STARTS. ENGINE TURNS OVER, BUT TAKES A LONG TIME TO ACTUALLY START. IT SOUNDS LIKE IT WON'T START, BUT IT DOES EACH TIME. I CALLED HONDA, THEY SAID NOISE DID NOT AFFECT ENGINE OPERATION, SO THEY WOULD NOT FIX IT. I AM FEARFUL OF ENGINE DAMAGE OR FAILURE TO START, EVENTUALLY.

I WISH TO COMPLAIN ABOUT MY 2010 HONDA CRV. I AM HAVING ISSUES WITH MY AIR CONDITIONING UNIT. WHEN IT IS HOT, IT BLOWS HOT AIR EVEN WHEN IT IS SET ON THE LOWEST TEMPERATURE. HOWEVER, WHEN IT IS NIGHTTIME IT WILL BLOW COLD AIR. HONDA EVACUATED AND RECHARGED THE SYSTEM ONLY FOR ME TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUES TWO MONTHS LATER. I WAS THEN TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE AC COMPRESSOR, COIL SET, CLUTCH SET, ETC. I WENT TO GET A SECOND OPINION AND I WAS TOLD THAT THE AC COMPRESSOR WOULD NOT EVEN POWER ON DUE TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES. IN RELATION TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES, MY CAR ALSO STALLED ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND I WAS ABLE TO HAVE THAT ISSUE RECTIFY WITHOUT TAKING IT TO HONDA.

I'VE RECENTLY NOTICED THAT THE LOCKS ON MY FRONT PASSENGER DOOR AND REAR DOOR ARE MALFUNCTIONING. USUALLY UPON STOPPING AND PLACING THE VEHICLE IN PARK, ALL DOORS UNLOCK. HOWEVER, NOW NEITHER MY FRONT PASSENGER DOOR NOR MY REAR DOOR WILL UNLOCK THEMSELVES UPON STOPPING AND PARKING. FURTHER, THESE SAME LOCKS WILL NOT RESPOND TO THE REMOTE ENTRY UNLOCK BUTTON. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE I REGULARLY DRIVE WITH MY 2-YEAR-OLD SON, AND NOW I'M AFRAID THAT THE OTHER DOORS WILL BEGIN TO MALFUNCTION AS WELL, AND POTENTIALLY TRAP SOMEONE INSIDE THE CAR. BECAUSE THIS IS A RECENT ISSUE I'VE NOT HAD A CHANCE TO HAVE THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT, BUT I'VE READ ONLINE ABOUT MANY OTHER CONSUMERS WITH A SIMILAR ISSUE IN THEIR CR-VS, SO I'D LIKE TO KNOW MORE ABOUT REMEDIES FOR THIS PROBLEM. THANKS IN ADVANCE FOR YOUR TIME IN ADDRESSING THIS CONCERN.

PLEASE HAVE MICHELIN RECALL THE DEFENDER GREEN X LINE OF TIRES BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. DOT CODES: 225/65R17 B93T02BX1114 B93T02BX0914

MY 2010 HONDA CRV HAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM. THE DEALER FINDS IT CONSUMES 1 QUART PER 1500 MILES. BECAUSE OF THIS IT DOES NOT MEET THE CRITERIA FOR REPAIR UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. THE OIL LIGHT NEVER COMES ON DESPITE BEING CRITICALLY LOW ON OIL. I HAVE GONE THROUGH THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST TWICE NOW AND ALSO APPEALED THROUGH HONDA. BECAUSE I AM NOT BURNING 1 QUART PER 1000 MILES THEY WILL NOT DO THE REPAIR. THEY ADMIT IT'S BURNING TOO MUCH OIL BUT NOT ENOUGH TO FIX IT. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD BY THE HONDA DEALERSHIP THAT HONDA OIL LIGHTS "JUST DON'T WORK". MY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC HAS SAID THE RATE OF OIL CONSUMPTION IS DAMAGING MY VEHICLE. I AM NOW CHECKING MY OIL WEEKLY AND SPENDING A LOT OF EXTRA MONEY PURCHASING OIL TO ADD ON MY OWN. I HAVE FOUND THE ENTIRE PROCESS THROUGH HONDA EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING. I CALL AND SEND EMAILS AND DO NOT GET A RESPONSE. AFTER I FILED THE APPEAL AND WAS TOLD THEY WILL NOT AGREE TO DO THE REPAIR I ASKED WHAT MY NEXT STEP SHOULD BE. HE SUGGESTED I DO A THIRD OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. HE SAID HE HAD THE FINAL SAY AS THE PERSON IN CHARGE OF MY APPEAL AND HE REFUSED TO HELP ME.

I BOUGHT MY HONDA CRV BRAND NEW 2010. BY THE TIME THE CAR WAS 2 YEAR OLD, WITH 10,000 MILES, THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE WHEN I WOULD START THE CAR. THE GRINDING NOISE LASTS ABOUT 2 SECONDS. IT HAS BEEN INTO A HONDA DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES. I WAS TOLD HONDA IS WORKING ON A "FIX" AND THAT THE PROBLEM WOULD BE ADDRESSED WHEN THE ENGINEERING DEPARTMENT HAD THE ISSUE FIGURED OUT. ONE YEAR LATER (BUT STILL UNDER WARRANTY), THE GRINDING NOISE IS LOUDER AND LONGER THAN BEFORE, AND HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME I START THE CAR. UPON DOING SOME RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT HONDA HAS BEEN INSTALLING THE DEFECTIVE VTC ACTUATOR SINCE 2008, IN ACCORDS. THE DEFECTIVE ACTUATOR WAS ALSO INSTALLED IN 2012-2014 CRV'S. IT APPEARS THAT HONDA CONTINUED TO USE THE DEFECTIVE ACTUATOR SINCE 2008, YET CUSTOMERS ARE BEING TOLD THAT A "FIX" IS IN THE WORKS, 7 YEARS LATER. AMERICAN HONDA HAS ADVISED HONDA SERVICE DEPARTMENTS TO NOT REPLACE THE ACTUATOR AS IT IS LIKELY THAT THE REPLACEMENT ACTUATOR WILL PRESENT THE SAME GRINDING NOISE. A REGIONAL CASE MANAGER ALSO ASSURED ME THAT A "FIX" WAS IN THE WORKS BUT DID NOT COMMENT WHEN I POINTED OUT THAT HONDA CONTINUED TO USE A DEFECTIVE PART FROM 2008-2014. HONDA REPEATEDLY EMPHASIZES THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY OR PERFORMANCE ISSUE, TO WHICH I HAVE REPLIED THAT IS LIKELY THE REASON IT HAS BEEN 7 YEARS WITH NO FIX -- IT IS A LOW PRIORITY AND HONDA CHOOSES TO DIRECT ITS ENGINEERING RESOURCES ELSEWHERE.
