SOON AFTER PURCHASE, I NOTICED A DISTINCT VIBRATION THROUGHOUT THE CAR DURING IDLE AND MODERATE ACCELERATION AT NEARLY ALL SPEEDS WHEN RPM WAS AT 1800-2200. DEALER SERVICE PEOPLE DID NOT KNOW THE CAUSE, INDICATED A NUMBER OF OTHER CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS, GUESSED IT ORIGINATED IN COMPUTERS ASSOCIATED WITH THE TRANSMISSION OR DIFFERENTIAL, COULD NOT FIX IT, CLAIMED IT IS NOT A SAFETY MATTER, ADVISED TO CONTACT HONDA CUSTOMER SERVICE, SAID IT IS A PRIORITY AT HONDA, AND MENTIONED NUMEROUS REPORTS AND COMPLAINTS ON BLOGS AND TV (7 ON YOUR SIDE WJLA, FEB 25, 2015) THE VIBRATION IS UNPLEASANT, ANNOYING AND DISTRACTING. OVER TIME THE SHUDDERING MAY DEVELOP INTO A SAFETY MATTER. PLEASE PUT PRESSURE ON HONDA TO RESEARCH THE PROBLEM AND MAKE A FIX OR RESTITUTION AS SOON AS THEY CAN AND CERTAINLY BEFORE INJURIES AND DEATHS OCCUR BECAUSE OF IT. *TR

JUST PURCHASED THIS CAR A MONTH AGO AND HAD TO TAKE MY CAR TO DEALER TWICE FOR SEVERE VIBRATIONS WHEN MY CAR IS IN IDLE. DEALER LET ME KNOW THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF THE ISSUE BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX. VIBRATIONS BEGAN ON NEAR PASSENGER SEAT BUT NOW CAN BE FELT IN THE ENTIRE CAR. THEY ARE DISTRACTING AND CAUSE ME TO BE NAUSEOUS SINCE I HAVE A LONG COMMUTE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. *TR

WHEN VEHICLE A STOP, THE PASSENGER SEAT IS SHAKING (VIBRATION). TOOK THE CAR TO HONDA DEALER TO DEMO AND THE TECH MANAGER AGREED THE PASSENGER CHAIR IS SHAKING ( VIBRATION) AT IDLE .CALL HONDA REGIONAL MANAGER TO REPORT THE ISSUE, THEY CALL HONDA DEALER TO VERIFIED. AFTER THAT HONDA MANAGER CALLED ME BACK AND SAID NO FIXED FOR THIS. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. PLEASE LET HONDA KNOW THIS IS SAFETY ISSUE . THANK YOU. *TR

THIS 2015 HONDA CRV EX MODEL WHEN IDLING AT A STOP SIGN OR IN TRAFFIC IT VIBRATES TERRIBLY. IF I SIT IDLE AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT FOR SOMETIME THE VIBRATION BECOMES SO ANNOYING I NEED TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. THE OTHER ISSUE IS BETWEEN 1000 AND 2000 RPM AND BETWEEN 20 MPH AND 30 MPH THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT VIBRATION WHICH MAKES ME FEEL VERY UNEASY THAT THE CAR IS SHIFTING PROPERLY AND THAT IT IS SAFE TO TAKE ON A HIGHWAY. IT TOOK ME A WHILE TO REALIZE THAT IT WAS A PROBLEM AND NOW I HAVE 2000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AND CONTACTED HONDA. I ALSO LOOKED ONLINE AND HAVE NOTICED APPROXIMATELY 80,000 PEOPLE THAT I'VE HAD THIS ISSUE. I SPOKE TO THE SERVICE MANAGER OVER AT SLOAN HONDA LOCATED IN PHILADELPHIA PENNSYLVANIA ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND HE EXPLAINED THAT HE WOULD LOVE TO FIX MY VEHICLE AS OTHERS HAVE COMPLAINED OF THIS PROBLEM. HE ALSO EXPLAINED THAT THE DEALER AND HIS SERVICE SHOP MAKES MONEY OFF OF REPAIRS. I WOULD LIKE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE BUT THERE IS NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO.MY MAJOR CONCERN IS IF I AM DOING 55 TO 65 MPH ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHETHER THE CAR IS GOING TO FAIL BECAUSE HONDA DOESN'T KNOW WHY THESE VIBRATIONS ARE OCCURRING AT IDOL AND VARIOUS SPEEDS. *TR

I BOUGHT A 2015 CRV WITH 16 MILES ON IT. FROM THE BEGINNING THERE HAS BEEN SHUDDERING WHEN I DRIVE AT HIGH SPEEDS (OR ON ANY NORMAL HIGHWAY), AND STRONG VIBRATIONS (ROUGH IDLE). THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE ON A 31K CAR. *TR
Engine, Mar 20, 2015
BRAND NEW 5 MILES ON IT WHEN I GOT IT. SHAKES WHEN IDLES. TOOK TO DEALER THEY SIGNED INVOICE STATING AWARE OF SHAKING AND FELT THE SHAKING. TOLD ME TO CALL HONDA OPEN A CASE. GOT CASE #. CLOSED IN 3 HRS. THERE IS NO SOLUTION TO ISSUE. PER HONDA. THEY DON'T KNOW IF ITS MECHANICAL, ELECTRICAL OR COMPUTER. AS MILES INCREASE THE SHAKING IS GETTING WORSE. I AM STARTING TO FEEL IT IN STEERING WHEEL & GEAR SHIFTER. I AM VERY CONCERNED IF THERE IS A LOSS OF CONTROL OF CAR I'LL BE IN A CAR ACCIDENT. THE PRICE I PAID FOR CRV EXL & THESE ISSUES WITH 1800 MILES ARE TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE & IF HONDA KNEW THERE WAS AN ERROR IN THE ASSEMBLY LINEOF THESE CARS & STILL RELEASED THESE CARS TO BE SOLD THERE IS LIABILITY ON THE PART OF HONDA. I WANT MY 1996 COROLLA BACK IT HAD 199,000 MILES AND DID NOT SHAKE LIKE THIS 2015 CRV!! I AM SERIOUSLY CONSIDERING GETTING ANOTHER CAR. HONDA BETTER TAKE THE CONCERNS OF THESE CONSUMER COMPLAINTS SERIOUSLY. HONDA IS LOSING THEIR QUALITY WORKMANSHIP REPUTATION. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED. I BOUGHT THIS BASED ON HONDA'S QUALITY, VALUE, RESEARCH, OVERALL REPUTATION, AND RE-SALE VALUE, LOOKS LIKE I WAS MISGUIDED. *TR

MY BRAND NEW 2015 HONDA CR-V IS EXPERIENCING STRONG VIBRATIONS BOTH IN IDLE OR IN DRIVE. I CAN FEEL THE VIBRATIONS IN DRIVE SEAT,STEERING WHEEL, GAS PADDLE. I CAN EVEN SEE THE SHAKING OF PASSENGER-SEAT BACK WHEN IT IS IDLE. I AM AFRAID SUCH HIGH FREQUENCY VIBRATION WILL LOOSEN SCREWS, BREAK PARTS AND RESULT IN SAFETY ISSUE. HONDA NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE AND PROVIDE A SOLUTION. PLEASE HELP. REGARDS. *TR

I BOUGHT MY HONDA CR-V 2015 TOURING MODEL DECEMBER 15,2014 WITH 2 MILES ON IT. ON MY WAY TO WORK IN FEBRUARY I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 70MPH WHEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I FELT A JERK ON MY CAR, (I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST WIND SINCE WE WERE SUPPOSED TO HAVE SOME BAD WINTER WEATHER COME THROUGH) I LOOKED DOWN AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE SPEEDOMETER WAS GOING DOWN. I PULLED OVER TO THE SHOULDER AND PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND TURNED IT OFF AND WAITED A FEW MINUTES, IT RESTARTED AND EVERYTHING WAS FINE. IT HAS SINCE HAPPENED TO ME TWO MORE TIMES. *TR

MY BRAND NEW 2015 HONDA CR-V IS EXPERIENCING STRONG VIBRATIONS IN IDLE WHEN IN DRIVE. I CAN FEEL THE VIBRATIONS IN MY SEAT AS I AM IN IDLE, BUT IT IS MOST NOTICEABLE WHEN THE PASSENGER SEAT IS EMPTY AS IT SHAKES AGGRESSIVELY FROM THE VIBRATIONS. IT'S ANNOYING AND ITS DISTRACTING WHEN DRIVING. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ON THIS ISSUE BUT HONDA IS CALLING IT A "CHARACTERISTIC" OF THE CAR. I'VE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TWICE NOW BUT THEY HAVE NO FIX SO THEY ARE BASICALLY TELLING ME I AM OUT OF LUCK AT THIS TIME AND TO WAIT IT OUT. I'VE ALSO MADE A PHONE CALL TO HONDA AMERICA AND AWAITING A CALL BACK ON MY CASE. A BRAND NEW CAR WITH THIS PRICE TAG SHOULD NOT HAVE VIBRATIONS WHEN IN IDLE. MANY CONSUMERS ARE WORRIED ABOUT THE LONG TERM EFFECTS OF THIS VIBRATION TO THE CAR. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS A STRONG VIBRATION FROM THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT WHEN DRIVING OVER 60 MPH, THE ENGINE RPM'S DID NOT READ ACCURATELY AND THE VEHICLE VEERED LEFT AND RIGHT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE THE FAILURE WAS NOT ABLE TO BE REPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILAGE WAS 50.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM WITH VIBRATION SINCE PURCHASING NEW CRV2015 WITH AWD. WHEN SITTING AT A STOPLIGHT, ENGINE RPM DROPS BELOW 1000 AND VIBRATION STARTS TO OCCUR. AS SOON AS CAR STARTS MOVING, VIBRATIONS DISAPPEAR. THEY ARE QUITE PRONOUNCED AT THESE LOWER RPM'S. I ALSO OWN A JEEP COMPASS WITH CVT AND THIS NEVER HAPPENED WITH THAT ENGINE/TRANSMISSION. HAVE NOT TAKEN TO DEALER YET DUE TO BAD WEATHER CONDITIONS IN AREA BUT INTEND TO DO SO SHORTLY. SINCE SO MANY ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM, HONDA NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE AND PROVIDE A SOLUTION. *TR
Power train, Engine, Feb 22, 2015
MY VEHICLE IS A 2015HONDA CRV EXL WHEN YOU ARE AT 30-45 MPH AND YOU TRY TO INCREASE SPEED SLIGHTLY THE VEHICLE VIBRATES LIKE THE TRANSMISSION IS SHUDDERING AND SLIPPING OR IS NOT GETTING ENOUGH POWER NOT SURE BUT IT SEEMS TO BE RELATED TO THE RPM SETTING AT TIMES IT SHUDDERS QUIT BAD. TOOK IT IN TO HONDA SERVICE AND THEY SAID IT IS A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE AND THE CVT TRANSMISSION AND AT THAT TIME NOTHING THEY COULD DO BUT SUBMIT IT TO HONDA ENGINEERING . I AM AFRAID THAT THIS WILL CAUSE A MAJOR ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION FAILURE IN THE FUTURE IF IT IS NOT ADDRESSED. I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS COULD BE A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CVT TRANSMISSION BECAUSE I HAVE A FAMILY MEMBER WHO OWNS A 2014 HONDA ACCORD WITH THE SAME CVT AND POWERTRAIN AND THE ISSUE DOES NOT EXIST. PLEASE HELP ME GET THIS FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. *TR

THERE IS VERY NOTICEABLE VIBRATIONS WHEN VEHICLE STOPS AT STOP LIGHT. IF VEHICLE IS 'D' AND 0 SPEED IT VIBRATES AND RPM NEEDLE IS NOT SABLE. ALSO, VIBRATIONS ARE AT 60 AND HIGHER SPEED. ENGINE IS NOT SMOOTH AT ALL AND FEEL/SOUND LIKE ENGINE IS STRESSED. CALLED HONDA MULTIPLE TIMES BUT THEY ARE NOT ACKNOWLEDGING THE ISSUE. DEALERSHIP ALSO SAYS ALL THE 2015 CRV HAS THE ISSUE SO ITS NORMAL!! PLEASE DISCUSS WITH HONDA AS ALL THE NEW HONDA 2015 CRV HAS VIBRATION ISSUE. THIS IS A MAJOR DEFECT AND HONDA NEEDS TO FACE UP TO THE ISSUE WITH THEIR NEW ENGINE CVT DESIGN. *TR
Engine, Feb 17, 2015
AFTER TEN DAYS OF OWNING THIS CAR TODAY IS THE FIRST TIME THAT EXPERIENCED ENGINE VIBRATION AT IDLE WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT. THE VIBRATION IS FELT THROUGH THE CABIN AND THE DRIVER SEAT. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THE ENGINE VIBRATION IS NOTICED AROUND 550 600 RPM. IF THE AC IS TURNED ON THE RPM INCREASE AND THE VIBRATION GOES AWAY. SWITCHING THE AC OFF THE RPM DROP TO AROUND 550 600 AND THE VIBRATION RETURN. I HOPE HONDA IS DOING SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. I WILL BE TAKING THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER FOR ANALYSIS. *TR
Engine and engine cooling, Feb 12, 2015
THE CAR VIBRATES HEAVILY AT IDLE. THIS VIBRATION FAR EXCEEDS ANY VIBRATION I HAVE EXPERIENCED IN ANY OTHER VEHICLE AND IS NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A NEW VEHICLE. ALL PASSENGERS CAN FEEL THE VIBRATION, BUT IT IS MOST PRONOUNCED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT - WHEN EMPTY IT SHAKES VIOLENTLY. THE VIBRATION IS SO PRONOUNCED THAT I HAVE A HARD TIME FOCUSING MY EYES RESULTING IN EYE-STRAIN. THE CONDITIONS UNDER WHICH THE VIBRATION (DESCRIBED BELOW) OCCURS WILL NOT BE EXPERIENCED BY MOST TEST-DRIVERS AND SO HONDA IS DECEIVING THE PUBLIC BY SELLING THIS CAR. THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND ARE DOING NOTHING TO SOLVE IT AND THEY CONTINUE TO SELL THE CR-V. THIS IS SHAMEFUL. MY FINDINGS: 1. THE STRONG VIBRATION / SHAKING HAPPENS CONTINUOUSLY WHEN: A. ENGINE IS WARM 5-15 MINUTES B. AT A COMPLETE STOP IN DRIVE C. THERE IS NO ADDITIONAL LOAD ON THE ENGINE (ALL ADDITIONAL COMPONENTS ARE OFF - LIGHTS, AC , RADIO ETC) D. RPMS DROP TO JUST ABOVE THE 500 LINE 2. THE STRONG VIBRATION / SHAKING COMES AND GOES CYCLICALLY WHEN: A. ENGINE IS WARM 5-15 MINUTES B. AT A COMPLETE STOP IN DRIVE C. THERE IS SOME ADDITIONAL LOAD ON THE ENGINE. SUCH AS: AC OR MANUALLY TURNED ON RUNNING LIGHTS - HOW LONG IT TAKES TO CYCLE VARIES, BUT IT WILL DO SO EVENTUALLY. THE RPMS CYCLE BETWEEN THE 550-600 (HARD VIBRATION / SHAKING) AND 750-800?? (AGAIN NOT SURE OF THE EXACT READING) WHICH PRODUCES A MUCH MORE TOLERABLE (ALTHOUGH STILL VERY ANNOYING) VIBRATION 3. THE STRONG VIBRATION SHAKING DOES NOT HAPPEN WHEN THERE IS ENOUGH OF A LOAD ON THE ENGINE TO HOLD THE RPMS STEADY AT THE HIGHER IDLE RPM MARK OF APPROXIMATELY 750-800. ALTHOUGH, THE LESS PRONOUNCED (ALTHOUGH STILL VERY ANNOYING) VIBRATION REMAINS. A. MOST CONSISTENT THINGS TO DO THIS: AUTO-LIGHT FUNCTION WHEN ENGAGED WITH LIGHTS ON & MANUALLY TURNING ON FILL NIGHTTIME LIGHTS . *TR

HELLO, I BOUGHT 2015 HONDA CR-V LX ON 12/30/2014, AND ON THE NEXT DAY, I NOTED THE WHOLE CAR VIBRATES WHENEVER IDLING IN DRIVE, AT 600 RPM. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I STOP AT THE RED LIGHTS. SO, ON 1/12/2015, I TOOK IT TO HONDA CARS OF MCKINNEY, TX, AND THEY SAID THE STRANGE EXPLANATION; "WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER MANUFACTURER'S CARS, IT DOES VIBRATE MORE. BUT, WHEN COMPARED TO OTHER 2015 CR-VS, THEY ALL VIBRATE. SO, THIS IS WHY IT IS NOT THE PROBLEM IN 2015 CR-VS." WHEN I SEARCHED ONLINE, THE VIBRATION PROBLEM ON 2015 HONDA CR-VS IS ACROSS THE US, NOT JUST IN TEXAS. EVERYONE HAS THE SAME EXACT ISSUE, AND THEIR HONDA SERVICE DEPTS SAY THE SAME COMMENT; "YOU ARE THE FIRST ONE TO REPORT THE PROBLEM. NO ONE ELSE HAS COMPLAINED. THERE IS NO PROBLEM ON THE NEW 2015 CR-VS." CURRENTLY, MY CR-V IS AT 1000 MILES, AND THE CAR STILL KEEPS VIBRATING AT EVERY RED LIGHTS OR IN TRAFFIC. MY FAMILY SUFFERS FROM HEADACHES AND NAUSEA BECAUSE OF THE VIBRATION. 2015 CR-V IS DEFINITELY NOT THE SAFE CAR. ADDITIONALLY, I BELIEVE THIS IS ALSO THE CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF DECEPTIVE BUSINESS PRACTICE, AND THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED PROMPTLY BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE MORE VICTIMS. PLEASE HELP US AND HAVE HONDA FIX THIS VIBRATION PROBLEM ON 2015 CR-VS. REGARDS, *TR

I PURCHASED NEW 2015 HONDA CRV EX-L 01/21/2015. ONLY 3 MILE ON IT. IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASED, THE VEHICLE EXHIBITED SEVERE VIBRATION WHEN THE CAR FULLY STOP AND ON "D" POSITION. IDLE IS VERY LOW , AROUND 550 RPM, AND VEHICLE JUST SHAKES AND PASSENGER SEAT VIBRATES. VIBRATIONS CAN BE FELT THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL, AND CREATE A DISTRACTION DURING DRIVING. BROUGHT IT IN DEALERSHIP FOR CHECKING, THEY SAID EVERYTHING IS NORMAL???. THIS IS ABNORMAL COMPARE TO OTHERS NEW CAR. I TRUST THE "HONDA" NAME, BUT NOW MAKE ME DISAPPOINTED. I SHOULD BUY THE TOYOTA RAV4 RATHER THAN BUYING THIS CRV. HONDA NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM ASAP. *TR

PURCHASED NEW 2015 HONDA CRV ON NOVEMBER 8TH, 2014. IMMEDIATELY AFTER PURCHASE, VEHICLE EXHIBITED SEVERE VIBRATION AND SHUDDERING DURING IDLE, WHEN ACCELERATING, AND AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. AFTER VEHICLE IS WARMED UP IDLE IS VERY LOW , AROUND 550 RPM, AND VEHICLE JUST SHAKES AND PASSENGER SEAT VIBRATES. VIBRATIONS CAN BE FELT THROUGH THE STEERING WHEEL, AND CREATE A DISTRACTION DURING DRIVING. HONDA'S RESPONSE IS THAT THE VEHICLE IS WITHIN PARAMETERS AND THIS IS A CHARACTERISTIC. AN ENGINE OR TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT SHUDDER OR VIBRATE THIS MUCH DURING DRIVING. HONDA NEEDS TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AND IMMEDIATELY CORRECT IT. *TR

BRAND NEW VEHICLE ON THE THIRD TRIP FROM HOME. THE HESITATION/VIBRATION PROBLEM IS NOTICEABLE (INTERMITTENT SHUDDERING AS IF A WHEEL IS OUT OF ALIGNMENT AND/OR THE VEHICLE HAS JUST HIT A PATCH OF BLACK ICE, BUT RELATED TO THE NEWLY DESIGNED CRV TRANSMISSION, A PROBLEM COMMON TO ALL CRV 2015 THAT DOES NOT YET HAVE A FIX) BUT WHAT REALLY STUNNED ME WAS A SUDDEN EXTREMELY HIGH REV WHEN GOING DOWN A SMALL HILL. I WAS BRAKING LIGHTLY AT THE TIME. (SERVICE TOLD ME THAT THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTS ON HILLS, SO, USING THE BRAKE CAUSED THIS. ??!!) IT DIDN'T LAST LONG, BUT THE ENGINE RACED SO COMPLETELY OUT OF CONTROL THAT THE VEHICLE DID NOT FEEL SAFE, AND ONE HAD THE SENSE THAT MOTION HAD SEIZED UP, ALTHOUGH IT KEPT MOVING. THE NOISE WAS INCREDIBLE. IT DIDN'T HAPPEN FOR A WHILE, AND I ASSUMED IT WAS DUE TO USING THE BRAKE ON A HILL (!!??). I STOPPED USING THE BRAKE ON HILLS AND NOTICED THAT THE TRANSMISSION DIDN'T ALWAYS DOWNSHIFT, SOMETIMES IT SHIFTED UP AS THE VEHICLE GAINED SPEED! WHAT TO DO... I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE IN TO SERVICE ABOUT THE VIBRATION ISSUE, ON THE 28TH JAN, AND WAS TOLD THAT ALL CRV 2015 HAVE THIS ISSUE AND THERE'S NO FIX YET. I LEFT CHEERFULLY ENOUGH, AND DRIVING HOME, THE SURGE/REV HAPPENED AGAIN, GOING UP A HILL, WITH NO USE OF THE BRAKE. I CALLED MY SALESMAN, AND THE NEXT MORNING RETURNED THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED FOR MY MONEY BACK, BECAUSE THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. HE WOULDN'T GIVE MY MONEY BACK UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS PROVEN BY A HONDA CANADA ENGINEER ON THIS OR ON ANOTHER CRV 2015 VEHICLE. I LEFT THE CAR THERE. CANADIANS-- I NEED YOUR HELP IF YOU HAVE THIS PROBLEM! SEE THE CRV LIST AND FIND ME THERE. I OWNED IT FOR 20 DAYS, A LITTLE OVER 1000K (50 MILES). THE SURGE/REV PROBLEM ONLY OCCURRED TWICE, ON WINDING HILLY ROADS. THE VIBRATION/HESITATION PROBLEM HAPPENS ANYWHERE, BUT IS MORE PRONOUNCED ON WINDING HILLY RDS. *TR
