Honda is recalling certain model year 2012-2013 CR-V, Odyssey, and model year 2013 Acura RDX vehicles. During sub-freezing temperatures, the brake-shift interlock blocking mechanism may become slow and allow the gear selector to be moved from the Park position without pressing the brake pedal. As such, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 114, "Theft Protection and Rollaway Prevention."
If the gear selector is moved from the park position without pressing the brake pedal it can allow the vehicle to roll away, increasing the risk of a crash.
Honda will notify owners and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Honda or Acura dealer. The dealer will install an updated brake shift interlock blocking mechanism free of charge. The recall began on May 13, 2013. Owners may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009. Honda's campaign recall numbers are S96, S97, and S98.

Equipment, other, labelsOct 16, 2012
Honda is recalling certain model year 2012 CR-V, equipped with the LX trim level and manufactured from August 30, 2012, to August 31, 2012. These vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of 49 CFR Part 567, "Certification." The incorrect values for Gross Vehicle Weight Rating, Gross Axle Weight Rating front and rear, tire size, and rim size were specified on the safety certification label.
A misprinted label could lead to improper vehicle loading. Improper loading could result in a tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will apply the corrective label free of charge. The safety recall began on November 14, 2012. Owners may contact Honda at 1-800-999-1009.

Latches/locks/linkages, doors, latchJul 19, 2012
Honda is recalling certain model year 2012 Honda CR-V and model year 2013 Acura ILX vehicles. If the manual or power door lock is activated while an interior front door handle is being operated by an occupant, the cable connecting the interior door handle to the door latch mechanism may become loose and move out of position. There is a possibility that the cable can move far enough out of position to prevent the door from properly latching.
If the door is not fully latched, the door may open while driving or in a crash, increasing the risk of personal injury to the vehicle occupants.
Honda will notify owners, and dealers will replace the front door latch assemblies in the affected vehicles, free of charge. Additionally, the interior front door handles in certain Honda CR-Vs will also be replaced, free of charge. The safety recall is expected to begin on, or about, August 16, 2012. Owners may contact Honda customer service at 1-800-999-1009.

LOUD NOISE ON START-UP ALL THE TIME (DOESN'T MATTER IF COLD OR HOT). TOOK TO DEALER, PEORIA, IL - 12/30/2014 SUSPECTED VTC ACTUATOR. DEALER SAID COULD NOT DUPLICATE, AFTER I EVEN RECORDED THE NOISE. BROUGHT BACK IN APRIL 2015, INSISTED THEY LISTEN WHILE I WAS THERE. DIAGNOSED VTC ACTUATOR. SAID HONDA HAD A TECH BULLETIN, SAID THEY KNOW ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT WILL NOT ALLOW DEALER TO FIX IT. TOLD TO CHECK BACK AGAIN SOON. I CHECKED BACK OVER SEVERAL MONTHS. SAME ANSWER. THERE IS NO FIX, HONDA KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM. HOW CAN A MANUFACTURER KNOW THERE IS A PROBLEM, AND SAY THEY CAN'T FIX IT. I CAN'T RESALE THE VEHICLE WITH THIS NOISE. THE NOISE IS VERY LOUD AND EMBARRASSING ON EVERY START UP. DEALER REFUSES TO FIX OR PROVIDE ANY SOLUTION. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH DIFFERENT HONDA VEHICLES, AND CONSUMERS CAN'T GET THE PROBLEM FIXED.

MY CR-V PRESENTS ITSELF WITH A LOUD GRINDING NOISE AT START, CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE,VTC ACTUATOR WHICH IS REFERENCED IN HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 09-010. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN IN 2008, AND IS ON GOING. THIS DEFECT SERIOUSLY AFFECTS RESALE VALUE, AND POTENTIALLY CAN CAUSE CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. THIS REPAIR SHOULD BE COVERED BY HONDA'S 60K POWER TRAIN WARRANTY, BUT HONDA SAYS AT THE CURRENT TIME THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS PROBLEM, WHICH THEY HAVE BEEN WORKING ON FOR SEVERAL YEARS. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALER AND HONDA USA NUMEROUS TIMES WITHOUT RESOLUTION, AS THE FREQUENCY AND INTENSITY OF THE PROBLEM WORSENS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS UNRESOLVED COMPLAINTS AND VIDEOS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THIS DEFECT. I HAVE CONSULTED A LEMON LAW ATTORNEY, BUT BECAUSE HONDA MAKES NO EFFORT TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM, IT DOESN'T QUALIFY.

COLD START OF ENGINE CAUSES LOUD GRINDING NOISE ONLY 2 AND A HALF YEARS OF OWNERSHIP 50,000 MILES LOOKING ONLINE IT IS NOT A UNIQUE PROBLEM AND IS AN ENGINE DESIGN FLAW. HONDA ONLY SAYS IT'S WORKING ON THE PROBLEM BUT DOESN'T HAVE A FIX YET. THEY SAY THE OFFICIAL PROBLEM IS THAT THE VTEC ACTUATOR IS DEFECTIVE. GIVEN THE NUMBER OF POSTS ASKING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM I WOULD ASSUME THE COMPANY WOULD WORK ON IT ESPECIALLY IF IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE ENGINE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CR-V. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, A LOUD GRINDING SOUND EMITTED FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED EACH TIME THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED IF IT HAD BEEN PARKED FOR OVER FOUR HOURS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WOULD BE PLACED ON A WAITING LIST. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VTC ACTUATOR WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING VEHICLE BRAND-NEW THE CAR WOULD NOT START. NO LIGHTS HAD BEEN ON. HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A "FIX." NOW THIS HAS HAPPENED AGAIN- BATTERY COMPLETELY DEAD WITHOUT WARNING LEAVING ME AND MY YOUNG CHILDREN STRANDED FOR HOURS. I JUST HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AT THE END OF MAY (ABOUT 5 WEEKS AGO) AND EVERYTHING PASSED INSPECTION THEN. ALSO LIKE OTHER REPORTS I SEE, MY ENGINE SOMETIMES MAKES A LOUD GRINDING SOUND WHEN STARTING. MY DEALERSHIP SAID THAT "THIS JUST SOMETIMES HAPPENS." I'M NOT CONVINCED- I'VE DRIVEN SOME VERY OLD CARS THAT DON'T EVEN DO THIS! THIS WAS MY FIRST BRAND NEW CAR AND I'M NOT PLEASED.

JUST WENT IN FOR OIL CHANGE AND TIRE ROTATION AND DEALER IS TELLING ME BECAUSE I HAVE NOT DRIVEN THAT MUCH MY REAR BRAKE PADS NEEDS REPLACING BECAUSE THE PINS IN THE REAR BRAKES IS FROZEN AND KEEPING THE REAR BRAKE PAD IN USE EVEN THOUGH I AM NOT APPLYING MY BRAKES. FRONT PADS ARE OK. HE SAID I ONLY HAD ABOUT 1/4 INCH PAD LEFT BEFORE IT DUG INTO THE ROOTERS. 7,902 MILES DID NOT LET DEALER DO WORK YET. ...UPDATED 08/12/15 *BF UPDATED 10/26/2017*CN

THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED TWICE, IN EARLY 2014 AND EARLY 2015. DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IN A SNOWSTORM, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WORK FINE FOR A WHILE, AND THEN RATHER SUDDENLY THE WINDSHIELD ICES UP TO A POINT THAT VISIBILITY IS EXTREMELY POOR. THE WIPERS THEMSELVES FAIL, AND NO AMOUNT OF DEFROSTING/HEAT DIRECTED AT THE WINDSHIELD WILL HELP. THE ONLY THING THAT HELPS IS PULLING OFF THE HIGHWAY AND MANUALLY DE-ICING THEM. THE PROBLEM WITH THAT, OF COURSE, IS THAT ONE IS NOT ALWAYS IN THE POSITION TO BE ABLE TO DO THIS, AND CERTAINLY NOT IMMEDIATELY ONCE THE PROBLEM STARTS. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED WAS IN AWFUL TRAFFIC IN A SNOWSTORM WITH MY TWO DAUGHTERS IN THE CAR. THERE WERE ACCIDENTS ALL ALONG OUR ROUTE, SO EVEN WITH VISIBILITY THE DRIVING WAS HAIRY. THERE WAS NOWHERE TO PULL OVER FOR A LONG PERIOD IN ORDER TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT WAS WITHOUT A DOUBT THE WORST AND MOST FRIGHTENING DRIVING EXPERIENCE I'VE EVER HAD. AFTER THAT EXPERIENCE, I PURCHASED AND INSTALLED BRAND NEW WIPERS. THEY WORK GREAT IN THE RAIN, AND I WAS HOPEFUL ABOUT THEIR PERFORMANCE IN SNOW. BUT THEN I ENCOUNTERED THE PROBLEM AGAIN THE FOLLOWING WINTER. HAPPILY, ON THE SECOND OCCASION I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY RELATIVELY SOON AFTER THE PROBLEM STARTED. MY GUESS IS THAT IT HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH THE SHAPE OF THE WINDSHIELD, OR WITH THE DEPTH OF THE WELL AT THE BASE OF THE WINDSHIELD.

THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED NOW A TOTAL OF ABOUT SIX TIMES. THE FIRST TIME WAS IN THE SPRING OR SUMMER OF 2014, WHEN MY CAR WAS SLIGHTLY MORE THAN TWO YEARS OLD. GENERALLY SPEAKING, WHAT HAPPENS IS THIS. WHEN THE CAR IS IDLING OR AT LOW SPEED (IN A TRAFFIC JAM ONCE, SLOWING FOR A RED LIGHT, IDLING IN A DRIVEWAY, ETC.), THREE ENGINE LIGHTS COME ON. THE CAR THEN BUCKS AT LOW SPEEDS AND HAS VERY LITTLE POWER WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP. WHEN DRIVING, IT SLOWLY INCREASES IN SPEED AND THEN, AT ABOUT 30 MPH, STARTS BEHAVING NORMALLY. BASICALLY IT ACTS LIKE IT HASN'T DOWNSHIFTED AND IS IN TOO HIGH A GEAR. ON ONE OCCASION, ON THE HIGHWAY, IT SEEMED ALSO TO BE STRUGGLING TO GO 60 MPH, AS IF IN TOO LOW A GEAR. I HAD THE CAR LOOKED AT IN OCTOBER OF 2014, AFTER IT HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES IN QUICK SUCCESSION. THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE OR DETERMINE WHAT IT WAS, BUT UPDATED THE CAR'S SOFTWARE. THE PROBLEM DIDN'T RECUR UNTIL JUNE OF 2015. IT'S NOW HAPPENED TWICE MORE IN QUICK SUCCESSION, AND I INTEND TO HAVE IT SERVICED AGAIN. CLEARLY THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM BECAUSE WHEN THE ISSUE OCCURS THE CAR IS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE AT ALL QUICKLY. TRYING TO MERGE ONTO A HIGHWAY UNDER SUCH CIRCUMSTANCES IS DANGEROUS. THE PROBLEM EVENTUALLY RESOLVES ITSELF AFTER YOU GO THROUGH SEVERAL CYCLES OF DRIVING THE CAR, TURNING IT OFF, DRIVING IT AGAIN FOR A WHILE, TURNING IT OFF, ETC. THE CAR'S MISBEHAVIOR LESSENS AND THEN STOPS, AND EVENTUALLY THE ENGINE LIGHTS TURN OFF.

I WAS IN MY 2012 HONDA CRV PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT TO PARK WHEN I EXPERIENCED UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. THE CAR WOULD NOT STOP EVEN AFTER HITTING THE BRAKES HARD BUT RATHER SPED UP CAUSING ME TO HIT THE SIDE MIRROR OF A PARKED CAR. FINALLY I TURNED TO AVOID ANOTHER COLLISION AND WAS ABLE TO SLOW THE CAR DOWN THAT WAY.

WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING SPOT IN A PARKING STRUCTURE, AS I PREPARED TO STOP, THE AUTOMOBILE, I THINK, INEXPLICABLY ACCELERATED, CRASHING INTO THE CONCRETE BARRIER WALL. THE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. TO SUM UP, I THINK THAT MY CAR ACCELERATED BY ITSELF.

WHENEVER I STOP AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT, UPON RE-STARTING (ONLY IF THERE IS AN INCLINE IN THE STREET) THE MOTOR ALMOST STOPS. I MUST PUMP THE GAS PEDDLE, IT SEEMS, TO CAUSE FUEL TO ENTER. THEN THE CAR TAKES OFF TOO FAST IN THE TRAFFIC. THE MECHANICS AT THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR CANNOT FIND (OR EXPERIENCE) THE PROBLEM. BUT THERE IS DEFINITELY A MALFUNCTION--DANGEROUS AS WELL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE SUN ROOF SHATTERED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THE SUN ROOF NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. NO REPAIRS WERE MADE TO THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 56,000.

CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL. I WAS GOING IN MY GARAGE. ICE AT FRONT OF GARAGE. I TAPPED THE ACCELERATOR AND I ENDED UP IN MY GARAGE WALL, DAMAGING MY CAR AND KITCHEN. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. A YEAR AND A HALF AGO, THE CAR ACCELERATED OUT OF CONTROL IN MY NEIGHBORS DRIVEWAY AND HIT THE GARAGE DOOR. ...UPDATED 04/21/15*BF

THE HIGH BEAMS LIGHTS IN MY HONDA ARE A SAFETY HAZARD, THEY AREN'T BRIGHT AND DON'T LIGHT THE ROAD UP AT ALL. ITS SO BAD THAT EVEN IF YOU LEAVE THE HIGH BEAMS ON THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC DOESN'T EVEN NOTICE THEY ARE ON. I CANT BELIEVE HONDA WOULD ALLOW SOMETHING THIS UNSAFE TO GO TO THE CUSTOMER. I HAVE BROUGHT MY VEHICLE TO NUMEROUS HONDA DEALERS AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE THERE ISN'T ANY RECALLS OR SAFETY BULLETINS PERTAINING TO HEADLIGHTS ON THE 2012 HONDA. THIS NEEDS TO COME TO A HEAD BEFORE SOMEONE GETS SERIOUSLY HURT BY THIS HORRIBLE DESIGN. I HAVE SEEN NUMEROUS CHAT BOARDS ONLINE DISCUSSING THE SAME ISSUE I AM HAVING. WHY SHOULD WE AS CUSTOMERS HAVE TO SUFFER FROM THIS POOR DESIGN TACTIC. HOPEFULLY SOMETHING CAN COME OF THIS SOON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED AFTER JUMPSTARTING THE VEHICLE, IT RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED A VOLUNTARY RECALL RELATED TO THE BATTERY MANAGEMENT SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED UNDER THE RECALL; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED FOR THE MOST RECENT FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 3,666.

I. HEADLIGHTS ARE TERRIBLE. I ONLY DRIVE OCCASIONALLY AT NIGHT. THE HIGH BEAM POINTS TOO HIGH AND THE LOW BEAM TOO LOW. I ASKED REP IN SERVICE DEPT. AT DON JACOBS, LEXINGTON, KY AND HE ADVISED THE HEADLIGHTS ARE SET AT FACTORY. THEY COULD NOT DO ANYTHING TO ADJUST THEM. I DON'T THINK HE EVEN MADE OUT A REPORT. BUT THE MORE I THINK ABOUT IT, HONDA SHOULD HAVE A "FIX" FOR THIS PROBLEM. 2. BATTERY. LOCAL TEMPS HAVE BEEN -/+ ZERO OUTSIDE. MY HONDA IS PARKED IN GARAGE AND TEMPS IN THIS COLD WEATHER IN MY GARAGE IS 34 DEGREES, AVERAGE.. MY HONDA "GROANS" WHEN STARTING, BUT SO FAR HAS MANAGED TO GET STARTED. I HAVE NOT MENTIONED THIS TO DON JACOBS AS I DIDN'T THINK THEY WOULD DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT. THEY WOULD PROBABLY SAY "IT WAS SET AT FACTORY".

SEAT BELTS ON VEHICLE HAVE INSUFFICIENT TENSION, FAIL TO RETRACT FULLY WHEN TAKEN OFF. SEAT BELT LATCHES THEN GET CAUGHT BETWEEN DOOR AND DOOR FRAME, THUS CAUSING DOOR TO CLOSE ON THEM AND RISK BENDING OR BREAKING THEM. THIS HAS ALSO CAUSED AN INDENTATION IN ONE INSIDE DOOR FRAME WHERE THE "DOOR CLOSED" BUTTON CONTACTS, THUS CAUSING THE CAR TO THINK THE DOOR IS STILL OPEN WHEN IT IS CLOSED. MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD IF THE BELT LATCHES BECOME BENT OR WEAKENED BY THE STRESS OF REPEATED DOOR CLOSINGS. *TR

THE HOLE HEAD LIGHT ASSEMBLES NEED TO BE REDESIGNED OR THE LOWBEAM BYPASSED SO THAT THE LOW AND HIGH ARE ON AT THE SAME TIME... I AM SURE YOU HAVE HAD COMPLAINTS BEFORE DUE TO THE THOUSANDS AND THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ONLINE JUST GOOGLE IT I DID THAT'S HOW I FOUND OUT IT WAS JUST NOT ME WHEN I GET ARRESTED FOR HITTING SOMEONE DUE TO MY HEADLIGHTS SUCKING I WILL BE FILING A CLASS A LAW SUIT AGAINST HONDA. *TR

THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. I WAS DRIVING, CAME TO A STOP AND WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE TO 25 MPH. THE CAR HESITATED UPON ACCELERATION AND THEN SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. NORMALLY WHEN IT OCCURS IT HAS HAPPENED AFTER A STOP AT A LIGHT, STOP SIGN OR CORNER. HOWEVER, IT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHILE I'VE BEEN ON THE HIGHWAY, LET OFF THE GAS AND THEN ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE. I BROUGHT IT TO MY HONDA DEALER FOR REPAIR AND THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE CIRCUMSTANCES. I REPORTED IT TO HONDA HEADQUARTERS AND THEY CAN DO NOTHING IF THE DEALER THE CAN NOT FIND THE PROBLEM AND HAD NO OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM WHICH SEEMS UNLIKELY. THIS IS VERY SCARY AND COULD LEAD TO A COLLISION. *TR
