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.

Suspension, Aug 10, 2016
THIS VEHICLE HAS 24,000 MILES AND THE REAR STRUTS FAILED. BECAUSE OF THE STRUTS FAILURE THE VEHICLE BOUNCES AND DOES NOT RIDE NORMALLY.
Vehicle speed control, Jul 26, 2016
UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. I PULLED INTO MY SON'S DRIVEWAY. WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED. IT WAS HEADING TOWARDS THE HOUSE AND CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AS I INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE. I SWERVED ONTO THEIR LAWN; EVENTUALLY MAJOR FORCE ON THE BRAKE BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO A STOP. I CHECKED THE FLOOR MAT; IT WAS ATTACHED FIRMLY TO THE FLOOR. I AM SURE I WAS ON THE RIGHT PEDAL; I FELT THE BRAKE AND THROTTLE "FIGHTING" EACH OTHER. IT'S THE CAR STOPPED AND IN PARK I TRIED TO SEE IF MY FOOT COULD DEPRESS BOTH PEDALS SIMULTANEOUSLY. THAT DID NOT SEEM POSSIBLE. THE INITIAL EVALUATION AT THE DEALER DID NOT REVEAL THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM
Exterior lighting, Jun 27, 2016
THE HEADLIGHTS ON THIS VEHICLE DO NOT PROVIDE ADEQUATE ILLUMINATION. WE ARE REVIEWING/CONSIDERING AFTERMARKET LIGHTING TO CORRECT THIS SITUATION. THE LOW BEAMS ONLY PROJECT ABOUT 10 FEET IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE (EVEN WITH THE DRIVING LIGHTS ON) AND THE HIGH BEAMS ARE VERY DIM AND OFFER VERY LITTLE LIGHT IMMEDIATELY IN FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN TURNING, THERE IS NOT ENOUGH LIGHT TO SAFELY SEE THE SIDE ROAD IF THERE ARE NO STREET LIGHTS. IN RURAL AREAS, THE DIM LIGHTS MAKE IT IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE WILDLIFE SUCH AS DEER SOON ENOUGH TO SAFELY AVOID THEM. MY CRV HAS BEEN RETURNED TO THE DEALER TWICE AND THEY WERE ABLE TO MAKE SOME ADJUSTMENTS TO TRY TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS TOLD ME THAT CUSTOMERS HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT POOR LIGHTING FOR MANY YEARS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. I HAVE PURCHASED HIGH OUTPUT BULBS AND THE IMPROVEMENT HAS BEEN MINIMAL. I HAVE CALLED HONDA AND ASKED HOW I COULD OBTAIN THE BETTER HEADLIGHTS THAT ARE AVAILABLE IN EUROPE AND BEEN TOLD THAT I CANNOT. I HAVE ASKED IF DRIVING LIGHTS COULD BE LEFT ON WITH THE HIGH BEAMS AND TOLD NO. THE DEALER OFFERED TO INSTALL POST-MARKET NON-HONDA HEADLIGHTS FOR ME BUT HONDA TOLD ME THAT I WOULD VOID MY WARRANTY. HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE TOLD ME THAT SHE WAS NOT AWARE OF ANY HEADLIGHT COMPLAINTS HOWEVER MANY COMPLAINTS ARE READILY AVAILABLE ON THE INTERNET. SHE TOOK DOWN MY INFORMATION AND ENTERED IT INTO A COMPUTER AND I HAVE HEARD NOTHING BACK - THAT WAS A MONTH AGO. SOMETHING NEEDS DONE ABOUT THESE HEADLIGHTS - SOMEONE IS GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED AND OBVIOUSLY HONDA DOES NOT CARE. THIS SHOULD BE A SIMPLE FIX AS I KNOW THEY HAVE BETTER HEADLIGHTS FOR THIS VEHICLE IN THE EUROPEAN MARKET.
Air bags, Engine, Jun 22, 2016
1-TAKATA INFLATOR THE PASSAGE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. THIS DOES NOT MAKE ME FEEL COMFORTABLE. THERE'S A RECALL FOR CR-VS UP TO 2012 FOR THIS?? 2-START UP NOISE - AT LEAST ONCE A DAY WHEN I START UP MY CR-V IT DOES THIS VERY LOUD GRINDING SOUND. NOTE: DURING WINTER IT WAS EVERY TIME I STARTED THE CAR. THE NOISE DID NOT START UNTIL AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP THEY STATED ITS THE VALVE THAT'S A PART OF THE HEAD/TIMING CHAIN SYSTEM. I'VE DONE MY RESEARCH AND BOTH THESE PROBLEMS ARE VERY COMMON WITH HONDA CR-V.
Air bags, Jun 13, 2016
THE PASSENGER" AIR BAG IS OFF" ICON IS ON ALL THE TIME IN THE UPPER RIGHT HAND CORNER OF THE DASH. STAYS ON EVEN IF CAR IF NOT TURNED ON. ONLY HAVE 25,000 MILES ON THE CAR AND THERE ISN'T ANYONE SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. DOES NOT GO OFF IF SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE PASSENGER SEAT. IS THIS A PROBLEM RELATED TO THE MASSIVE AIRBAG RECALL?
Vehicle speed control, Jun 4, 2016
I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED 2013 HONDA CRV 2 MONTHS AGO. I EXPERIENCED PROBLEMS WITH ACCELERATION AND CRUISE CONTROL IMMEDIATELY. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE BUT HE SAID THE TECHINICIAN TESTED AND FOUND NO ISSUES. SINCE THEN I HAVE RECORDED THAT THE PROBLEM CONSISTENTLY OCCURS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ABOVE 50MPH. WHEN I INITIALLY TRY TO ACCELERATE FROM ABOUT 50MPH TO 60, THE CAR BARELY MOVES. IT FEELS AS IF I'M NOT PRESSING THE ACCELERATOR HARD ENOUGH. THE COMPUTER HAS DELAYED REACTION AND FINALLY DECIDES TO ACCELERATE. THE CAR LUNGES AHEAD AND ACCELERATES TOO FAST. THIS IS A DANGEROUS RESPONSE. ITS A GOOD THING I'M USUALLY ON OPEN ROAD WHEN THIS HAPPENS. THE SAME PROBLEM HAPPENS WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL. I INCREASE THE CRUISE CONTROL TO GO FASTER, BUT IT DOESN'T CHANGE FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. THEN SUDDENLY IT KICKS IN. I'M GOING TO RETURN TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND REPORT IT AS A SAFETY RISK. WHEN I TRY TO CHANGE LANES, AND THEN CAN'T ACCELERATE TO KEEP PACE WITH TRAFFIC, I FEAR I WILL GET IN AN ACCIDENT. I'M GLAD TO KNOW THAT I'M NOT ALONE IN REGISTERING THIS TYPE OF COMPLAINT.
Seat belts, May 2, 2016, crash
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, THE CONTACT REAR ENDED THE PRECEDING VEHICLE. THE SEAT BELT FAILED TO RESTRAIN THE CONTACT AND HER HEAD STRUCK THE STEERING WHEEL. MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NOT RECEIVED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE SEAT BELTS . THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,500.

A LOUD GRINDING NOISE LASTING A FEW SECONDS AFTER INITIAL START UP AFTER CAR HAS BEEN SITTING, I.E., A 'COLD START.' MY HONDA 2013 CRV-EX-L HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FROM DAY ONE, BRAND NEW! IT'S INTERMITTENT BUT HAPPENS USUALLY ON A COLD START. AFTER QUITE A FEW VISITS TO DEALER THEY ACT PERPLEXED AND NEVER CAN DUPLICATE THE CONDITION! IT ACTUALLY IS THE VTC (VARIABLE TIMING CONTROL). HONDA HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR SEVERAL YEARS ON VARIOUS MODELS OF THEIR VEHICLES, HAS NEVER FIXED THE PROBLEM NOR CONTACTED AFFECTED BUYERS BUT HAS CONTINUED TO BUILD AND SELL THESE VEHICLES WITH A KNOWN DEFECT WITH NO FIX! THEIR ENGINEERS ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM, BUT OF COURSE THE SAME ENGINEERS SAY IT CAUSES "NO DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE!" SHAME ON HONDA, IT ONLY RUINED THEIR REPUTATION! PEOPLE STARE AT YOU AND ASK "WHAT IS THAT NOISE?" WHEN YOU EXPLAIN, IT PUTS HONDA AND THEIR VEHICLES IN A POOR POSITION I.E., LOSS OF REPUTATION AND SALES. I DID INTENSIVE INVESTIGATION ON MY OWN, JUST 'GOOGLE THE PROBLEM, AND YOU WILL BE TAKEN TO 'YOU TUBE' AND MANY OTHER SITES SHOWING THE PROBLEM. TAKE TO THE DEALER A VIDEO AND A COPY OF THE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ON THIS AND OTHER SITES! YOU MUST PROVE THE PROBLEM EXISTS!! I CALLED HONDA AMERICA 2 DAYS AGO TO COMPLAIN AND FOUND OUT HONDA JUST THIS YEAR, 2016, FINALLY CAME OUT WITH A 'FIX!' IT IS FOR THE VTC (VARIABLE TIMING CONTROL) . MY CAR FINALLY IS AT THE DEALER BEING REPAIRED. HONDA KNEW ALL ALONG OF THIS PROBLEM AT LEAST FROM 2012 THROUGH 2014 AND EVEN EARLIER MODELS! A RECALL SHOULD BE MANDATED TO MAKE THE REPAIR!! AGAIN SHAME ON HONDA, I PERSONALLY WILL NEVER BUY A HONDA AUTOMOBILE AGAIN. THE FRUSTRATION, EMBARRASSMENT, TIME RUNNING BACK AND FORTH TO THE DEALER, ETC. HAS WORN ME OUT!! REMEMBER THEIR IS NOW A BULLETIN TO HONDA DEALERS WITH A 'FIX.' BUT THEY MUST DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM! BE SURE TO TAKE A VIDEO WITH SOUND!!
Engine, Visibility/wiper, Apr 13, 2016
BOUGHT CAR FALL 2015 W/21000 MILES. FIRST VERY COLD DAY (BELOW 0 F), I NOTICED THE HEATING SYSTEM AS WELL AS DEFROST BARELY WORKED AFTER DRIVING 8 MILES ON A COUNTRY ROAD. THIS REPEATED ITSELF SEVERAL MORE TIMES BEFORE I DISCOVERED TSB 14-063 WHERE THEY DISCOVERED SAND HAD BEEN INADEQUATELY WASHED FROM THE BLOCKS AFTER THE CASTING PROCESS WAS COMPLETED. IT THEN SETTLED IN THE HEATER CORE BLOCKING THE SYSTEM FROM ADEQUATE DEFROST AND HEAT. MY DEALER APP'T WAS DISAPPOINTING IN THAT THEY ESSENTIALLY TOLD ME I WAS LYING AND NOTHING WAS WRONG WITH THE SYSTEM. THEY CLAIMED THE TEMP PROBES SHOWED A 1/10 DEGREE BETWEEN THE 2 VENTS - OF COURSE, I NEVER SAW THE RESULTS. MY WARRANTY EXPIRES IN LESS THAN A MONTH WHEN IT WILL THEN BE MY RESPONSIBILITY TO FLUSH IT MYSELF OR PAY THEM TO DO IT !! IT'S NOW SPRING SO I FEEL THAT WAITING FOR A RECALL COULD POSSIBLY PUT ME IN JEOPARDY AS VISIBILITY DURING COLD WEATHER WILL BE AND HAS BEEN AN ISSUE. I HAVE A COPY OF THE TSB AND SEE IT'S SUPPOSEDLY A 3 12 HR OBLIGATION, BUT THE FLAT RATE THEY SHOW IS 1.1 HOURS WHICH ENCOURAGES THEIR TECHS TO DO HAPHAZARD WORK. DEALER WAS BUERKLE HONDA, ST PAUL,MN AND MY APP'T WAS IN EARLY JANUARY 2016.

HOW MANY TIME IS THE PRODUCT GOING TO BE DEFECTIVE. WHATS REALLY HAPPENING
Other or unspecified, Feb 29, 2016
THE CAR MAKES A GRINIDING NOISE WHEN WE START IT. WE BOUGHT THE CAR IN DECEMBER OF 2015. ON 2/26/2016, I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER MECHANIC THAT HNDA IS AWARE OF THE SITUATION BUT HASNT FORMULATED A SOULTION. THE HONDA DEALER'S MECHANIC DID GIVE ME A GREAT DESRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM.
Steering, Feb 29, 2016
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 15 MPH, THE POWER STEERING MALFUNCTIONED AND MADE THE STEERING WHEEL EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER. THE STEERING WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THEN DIMMED ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 41,630. UPDATED 05/06/16*LJ *JS *TR
Service brakes, Feb 17, 2016
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 28 MPH AND COMING TO A STOP, THE BRAKES FAILED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. THE CONTACT HAD TO DOWNSHIFT THE VEHICLE IN ORDER TO STOP.

Visibility/wiper, Feb 11, 2016
THE WEATHER TURNED FRIGID AFTER A UNUSUAL WARM SPELL. AS WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WE STARTED TO GET SOME PRECIPITATION ON THE WIND SHIELD THAT THE DRIVERS SIDE DEFROSTER WAS UNABLE TO KEEP THE DRIVER SIDE WINDSHIELD SAFELY CLEAR. HAD TO PULL OVER SEVERAL TIMES TO MANUALLY CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD. ALSO THERE WAS VIRTUALLY NO HEAT ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. WE TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM NEW. THEY TOLD US THE DRIVER SIDE HEATER CORE WAS PLUGGED. I WAS ASTONISHED AS TO THE LOW MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE (15,659), AND IT BEING OUT OF WARRANTY BY 2 WEEKS. I BELIEVE THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION BECAUSE OF THE RAPID RATE AT WHICH IT OCCURS. IMAGINE THIS HAPPENING EVERY 12-15K MILES. APPARENTLY AFTER SEARCHING ON LINE I FOUND THIS TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM WITH CERTAIN 2012-2013 MODELS. HONDA ALSO HAS A BULLETIN OUT ON HOW TO TEMPORARILY REPAIR THIS DESIGN FLAW. (BULLETIN #14-063). I KNOW HEATER CORES CAN PLUG UP WITHOUT THE PROPER MAINTENANCE AND CONSIDERABLE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE. THIS IN MY OPINION IS A SAFETY HAZARD DUE TO THE FEW MILES DRIVEN BEFORE THIS CAN OCCUR.
Electrical system, Jan 31, 2016
MY CAR HAD LESS THAN 34,000 AND I WENT TO START IT AND IT WAS TOTALLY DEAD. IT WOULD NOT TAKE A JUMP, I HAD TO HAD IT TOWED AND IT TURNED OUT IT HAD A DEAD CELL AND I HAD TO REPLACE THE BATTERY. THE LAST CAR I HAD THE BATTERY WAS OVER 10 YEARS OLD. THIS CAR IS OVER 3 YEARS SO THERE WAS NO WARRANTY ON IT. JUST FEEL THIS SHOULD BE CHECKED INTO.

WHEN THE WEATHER IS COLD, MY CARGO LIFT WILL NOT OPEN. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE IN TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND THEY PRETTY MUCH THOUGHT I WAS CRAZY. EVEN MY HUSBAND CAN'T GET THE LIFT TO OPEN WHEN THE WEATHER IS COLD.

Air bags, Dec 22, 2015, crash
ON 11/30/15 OUR 2013 HONDA CRV WAS TAKEN TO FOX HONDA IN GRAND RAPIDS, MI TO HAVE THE DRIVER AIR BAG AND POWER LOCK RECALL REPAIRS PERFORMED. ON 12/15/15 MY DAUGHTER WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH WHEN THE TRUCK IN FRONT OF HER SLAMMED ON IT'S BREAKS BUT THE TRAILER LIGHTS WERE NOT WORKING SO THE CRV SQUARELY IMPACTED THE REAR OF THE TRAILER WITH SIGNIFICANT FORCE. THE PASSENGER AIRBAG DEPLOYED BUT THE DRIVER AIRBAG DID NOT. THE RADIATOR, ENGINE AND FRAME WERE DAMAGED SO THE CAR WAS TOTALED. WE FILED COMPLAINT #04347205 WITH HONDA EXPLAINING THAT THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER AND THE BODY SHOP WORKERS BOTH BELIEVED THAT THE AIR BAG SHOULD HAVE DEPLOYED. AFTER MY 3RD CALL, THE HONDA REPRESENTATIVES WERE STILL TRYING TO TELL ME THAT THERE ARE SEPARATE SENSORS AND THERE ARE MANY REASONS WHY ONE AIR BAG COULD GO OFF AND NOT THE OTHER. I EXPLAINED THAT WHILE MY DAUGHTER WAS NOT BADLY INJURED, I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE COULD BE A BIGGER PROBLEM WITH THEIR AIR BAGS AND I WISHED THEY WOULD TAKE IT SERIOUSLY ENOUGH TO INSPECT THE CAR TO MAKE SURE SOMEONE ELSE ISN'T INJURED OR EVEN KILLED IF THERE IS A GENERAL DEFECT.
Engine, Dec 3, 2015
A YEAR AGO I NOTICED AT TIMES A NOISE LIKE I AM TRYING TO START THE VEHICLE WITH IT ALREADY RUNNING. THE OTHER DAY ON INITIAL START IT MADE A LOUDER NOISE. THE BEST I CAN TELL IS A PROBLEM WITH THE VTC ACTUATOR.
