THE VIBRATION, AND AT TIMES SHAKING, OF THE SEATS OF MY 2015 HONDA CRV IS SO SEVERE THAT IT CAUSES NAUSEA, MIGRAINES, AND BACK PAIN. I MYSELF HAVE A HERNIATED DISK WITH NERVE COMPRESSION, A CONDITION THAT IS SERIOUSLY AGGRAVATED BY THE VIBRATION/SHAKING. I HAVE NOTIFIED BOTH THE DEALERSHIP AND HONDA TO NO AVAIL. THAT HONDA, OR ANY CORPORATION FOR THAT MATTER, SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO HARM CONSUMERS IN THIS WAY IS DESPICABLE.

BOUGHT THE 2015 HONDA CR-V AND IT HAS A PROBLEM OF VIBRATION WHEN AT STOP LIGHTS OR STOPPED WITH THE BRAKE ON. WHEN IT IDLES THE VIBRATION IS QUITE OBVIOUS - PASSENGER SEAT SHAKES. PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL AND IT STOPS. TOOK THE CAR TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP AND SAID HONDA IS AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM AND THEY ARE LOOKING FOR A FIX. I DO HOPE IT IS SOON AS I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS IS HAPPENING WITH A BRAND NEW CAR. SOMETIMES ALSO NOTICE THE ENGINE REVS UP WHEN GOING DOWNHILL - VERY DISAPPOINTED AND I WOULD LIKE TO A FIX TO THESE PROBLEMS IMMEDIATELY. *TR

VEHICLE VIBRATE SO HARD THAT YOU CAN HEAR IT AND FEEL IT. RPM TACHOMETER IS BELOW 0.5. TOOK IT TO BACK TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY INDICATE HONDA KNOW ABOUT IT, BUT THERE IS NO FIX FOR THIS ISSUE AND I CANNOT EXCHANGE VEHICLE UNLESS IT A TRADE-IN AND IT WILL COST ME MORE. HONDA DEALERSHIPS KNEW OF THIS FACT, BUT YET THEY ARE ALLOW TO SELL THIS VEHICLE TO THE CONSUMERS WITHOUT LET THE CONSUMERS KNOW BEFORE BUYING. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE TO BE STUCK WITH A VEHICLE WITH THIS ISSUE. I WOULD TO KNOW HOW TO GET OUT OF THIS VEHICLE WITHOUT IT COSTING ME. *TR

THE DEALER SAID MINE WAS THE FORTH CAR THE HAD SEEN WITH THIS PROBLEM AND THERE IS NO FIX AT THIS TIME. THEY TOOK COMPUTER SNAPSHOTS THAT WERE SENT TO HONDA. THE HONDA REGIONAL REP TOLD ME THAT HONDA KNOWS THERE IS A PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD NO COMMUNICATION FROM HONDA SINCE FEB. 27 2015. I DON'T KNOW IF IT IS SAFE TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE AT FREEWAY SPEEDS. MY CASE NUMBER WITH HONDA IS [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

I BOUGHT 2015 CR-V ON 3/14/2015, AND NOTICED THE VIBRATION PROBLEM ONE WEEK LATER. I REPORTED TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THEY DENIED THE CAR HAS SUCH PROBLEM. THE VIBRATION IS GETTING STRONGER AND STRONGER THAT GET ME DISTRACTED AND FEEL VERY UNCOMFORTABLE WHILE DRIVING. ON 4/11/2015 I BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE SERVICE DEPT. OF DEALERSHIP, AND SERVICE ADVISOR TOLD ME THAT NOT ONLY YOU HAVE THIS PROBLEM, WE CANNOT FIX IT, AND WE ARE WAITING FOR INSTRUCTIONS FROM HONDA HEADQUARTER. I WAS SURPRISED WHEN I HEARD THIS! I CHECKED ONLINE AND FOUND SO MANY MANY COMPLAINS ABOUT THIS ISSUE SINCE LAST NOVEMBER, BUT HONDA STILL SELL CR-V ON MARKET. I THINK THIS IS IRRESPONSIBLE TO THE CUSTOMERS! HONDA SHOULD TELL THE TRUTH TO THE CUSTOMERS AND LET THEM MAKE THE CHOICE. HONDA KEEPS SAYING NO SAFETY ISSUE, HOW CAN WE BELIEVE THEM? WHY OTHER CARS DON'T HAVE SUCH PROBLEM? MIGHT BE NO SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE NEW CAR RIGHT AWAY, HOW ABOUT YEARS AFTER? HOW MANY YEARS CAN HONDA GUARANTEE? HONDA SHOULD FACE TO THIS PROBLEM, AND STOP SELLING THIS CAR ON THE MARKET, AND RECALL ALL 2015 CR-V WHICH HAVE THIS PROBLEM AS SOON AS POSSIBLE! *TR

JUST LIKE ALL THE OTHER COMPLAINTS FOR THE 2015 HONDA CR-V, WHILE SITTING AT A RED LIGHT, IDLING, THE CAR SHAKES SO MUCH THAT I FEEL LIKE I'M GETTING MASSAGED. I HAVE ALWAYS LOVED HONDAS AND THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR A BRAND NEW HONDA. I HAVE OLDER VEHICLES THAN THIS AND IT RUNS SMOOTHER. MY HONDA DEALER STATES THEY CONTACTED HONDA AND THEY ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE YET! *TR

I BOUGHT HONDA 2015 CRV-LX AT MAR 23 2015, AND I NOTICED A TERRIBLE VIBRATION WHEN I DROVE TO HOME AFTER THE CAR IS WARM AND STOP AT STOP-SIGH IN D GEAR. YOU CAN SEE THE VIBRATION IN OPEN WINDOWS, SEATS,ETC AND ANYTHING IN THE CAR. I WENT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AT MAR 24 AND THE SERVICE GUY DROVE ANOTHER NEW CRV TO COMPARE WITH MINE AND ALSO GOT THE TOTALLY SAME PROBLEM AND THEN HE SAID IT IS MANUFACTURER PROBLEM SO THAT THEY CAN'T FIX IT. AND THEN WENT BACK TO ASK THE SALES, SALES SAID ALL CRV HAS SUCH PROBLEM AND THIS PURCHASE WAS DONE ALREADY SO THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR ME EVEN THIS IS A REALLY SUPER ANNOYING PROBLEM FOR ME AND ALL THE CRV'S OWNER. *TR

THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE 2015 HONDA CR-V WHERE THE CAR VIBRATES AND RATTLES SIGNIFICANTLY WHEN IDLING IN DRIVE WITH BRAKE DEPRESSED. THE RPM SEEMS TO DROP DOWN TO 600 AND THE ENGINE STARTS MAKING NOISE AND VIBRATING. AT THE PRESENT TIME IT IS ONLY AN INCONVENIENCE AND IRRITATING BUT I FEEL THAT IF THIS CONTINUES THEM WE MAY BE LOOKING AT PREMATURE WEAR AND TEAR OF PARTS JUST DUE TO THE EXCESS VIBRATIONS. CONSUMERS MAY BE IN FOR HUGE SPENDS TO REPLACE PARTS THAT WERE WORN OUT OVER THE YEARS DUE TO EXCESSIVE VIBRATIONS IN THE CAR. *TR

I PURCHASED A 2015 HONDA CR-V IN DEC. 14. IT HAD 148 MILES WHEN PURCHASED. I CANNOT DRIVE IT DUE TO VIBRATIONS-HAS NOT BEEN OUT OF MY GARAGE DUE TO THIS EXCEPT TO TAKE BACK AND FORTH TO THE DEALER. HONDA DOES NOT HAVE A FIX FOR THIS. I GET NOWHERE WITH HONDA OR THE DEALER. THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THE INTERNET, CUSTOMERS WITH SAME SITUATION - YOU TUBE HAS VIDEOS ON THIS. I HAVE A COPY OF AN E MAIL SENT TO THE DEALER BY HONDA ACKNOWLEDGING THIS PROBLEM WITH NO RESOLUTION. HOW DOES A COMPANY BUILD THESE AND NOT KNOW HOW TO FIX. I WANT A FULL REFUND ON THIS 2015 - $30,000 CAR WITH NOW 268 MILES. SO FAR, NO GO. THESE HONDAS CANNOT BE SAFE TO DRIVE WITH THESE VIBRATIONS AT CERTAIN RPM'S AND LUNGING FORWARD AT STOPS. BAD ACCIDENTS ARE COMING. SOMEONE HAS TO HELP - NHTSA NEEDS TO FORCE HONDA TO RECALL THE 2015 CR-V LEMON LAW IS COMING HONDA'S WAY. ..... *TR

SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASING THIS VEHICLE WE NOTICED THAT IT HAS AN EXTREME VIBRATION PROBLEM. FOR US, THE PROBLEM IS MOST PRONOUNCED WHEN THE CAR IS WARMED UP, AND IT IS IDLING. UNDER PARTICULAR ELECTRICAL LOAD CONDITIONS THE CAR WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE VIBRATION IS THE WORST WHEN THE CAR IS IDLING IN THE 500-600 RPM RANGE. SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE RIDDEN IN THE CAR AND ASKED US IF SOMETHING IS WRONG, AND WHY IS THE CAR SHAKING LIKE THAT. EVEN MY FIVE-YEAR-OLD ASKED WHY THE CAR SHAKES SO BAD. THE VIBRATION IS SO STRONG, AND THE IDLE SO BAD, THAT AT TIMES IT FEELS LIKE THE ENGINE IS ABOUT TO DIE. HONDA NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE IMMEDIATELY. IT IS AN UNACCEPTABLE PROBLEM THAT MUST BE FIXED. *TR

A STRONG VIBRATION WHEN VEHICLE IS STOPPED AND IN DRIVE. THE VIBRATION RATTLES THE WHOLE CAR- YOU CAN SEE THE VIBRATION IN OPEN WINDOWS, THE PASSENGER SEAT, THE GEAR SHIFT. UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVE AND LACK OF CONFIDENCE IN THE SAFETY OF MY VEHICLE. SCARED TO DRIVE MY CAR ON LONG DISTANCES. FIRST HONDA- PROBABLY LAST. *TR

SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT MY 2015 CRV TOURING I NOTICED SEVERE SHAKING WHILE IDLING. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE FOR A 4 CYLINDER VEHICLE AND SINCE I HAD TRADED IN A V8 I WAS JUST NOT USED TO IT. I TOOK HIS WORD FOR IT AND HAVE UNFORTUNATELY BECOME ACCUSTOM TO IT BUT IN THE LAST MONTH IT HAS GOTTEN MUCH WORSE. NOW IT IS SHAKING VIOLENTLY ENOUGH TO WHERE IF YOU WERE DRIVING INSTEAD OF IDLING YOU MAY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS ALSO NOT BEEN MY ONLY SAFETY ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE. MY OTHER COMPLAINT IS THAT ON CERTAIN ROAD TYPES THE CAR IS EXTREMELY UNSTABLE. THE FIRST TIME I EXPERIENCED THIS ISSUE I ACTUALLY PULLED OVER AND CALLED MY HUSBAND TO LET HIM KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON. I IMMEDIATELY TOOK IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS HAPPENING BECAUSE THE TIRES WERE NEW AND WERE GRABBING THE LINES IN THE ROAD AND THAT IT SHOULDN'T LAST LONG. WELL, HERE IT IS FIVE MONTHS AND 4000 MILES LATER AND IT'S ACTUALLY GETTING WORSE! THE CAR VEERS TO THE RIGHT AND TO THE LEFT UNCONTROLLABLY. MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING WHEN THERE WAS ICE ON THE ROAD AND IT ACTUALLY PULLED US AND MADE US TEMPORARILY SLIDE ON THE ICE DUE TO IT JERKING AND HE ALMOST LOST CONTROL. THIS IS THE LEAST SAFE I'VE FELT IN ANY CAR THAT I'VE EVER OWNED. I FEAR FOR MY FAMILY'S SAFETY EVERY TIME WE RIDE IN IT AND I AM EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED IN HOW HONDA HAS HANDLED THE COMPLAINTS. *TR

TOOK DELIVERY OF 2015 CRV EXL ON 04-09-15. FOUND PRONOUNCED DRIVE TRAIN SHUDDER WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE AT SPEEDS FROM IDLE TO 30MPH AT 1000-1250 RPM. RETURNED VEH. TO LIA HONDA IN NORTHAMPTON MASS. WHERE TECHNICIAN WAS ABLE TO DUPLICATE AND DOCUMENT COMPLAINT. SERVICE WRITER STATES THAT HONDA IS AWARE OF ISSUE BUT HAS NO FIX. MY 2011 CRV RAN SMOOTH AS GLASS. HONDA HAS BEEN THE BENCHMARK FOR QUALITY VEHICLES BUT HAS REALLY DROPPED THE BALL ON THE 2015 CRV. IF A MACHINE SHUDDERS OR VIBRATES WHEN IN OPERATION THERE IS AN INDICATION THAT IT WAS MIS-DESIGNED, SOMETHING IS BROKEN OR WILL BREAK IN THE NEAR FUTURE. REAL SHAME THAT HONDA RELEASED THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS KNOWN PROBLEM. WILL CERTAINLY BECOME A SAFETY ISSUE IF SOMETHING COMES APART IN THE POWERTRAIN WHILE THE VEHICLE IS AT SPEED. *TR

MY 2015 HONDA CR-V TOURING MODEL VIBRATES INTERMITTENTLY. IT IS WORSE WHEN AT IDLE SUCH AS AT A STOP SIGN OR RED LIGHT. IT DOES HAPPEN, DANGEROUSLY SO WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS OF 65-76 MPH. HONDA CALL THIS A "CHARACTERISTIC OF THE CAR" "AN ANNOYANCE". IT IS MORE THAN THIS. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. SOW ONE IS GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR WORSE. *TR

A FEW DAYS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE I BEGAN TO NOTICE A VIBRATION ON THE FRONT END, MOSTLY AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND MOST SEVERE AT 60-70 MPH RANGE. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR SERVICE 3 TIMES IN MARCH. THE FIRST TIME THEY BALANCED ALL THE TIRES, THE SECOND TIME THEY PUT TWO NEW TIRES IN THE FRONT. I DROVE IT ON A TRIP (ABOUT 600 MILES TOTAL) AND IT WAS EXTREMELY IRRITATING THE WHOLE TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY. THE THIRD VISIT TO THE DEALER AND I DROVE IT WITH THE SERVICE MANAGER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL. WE THEN DROVE ANOTHER NEW 2015 CRV AND IT DROVE THE SAME WAY. HIS BEST SUGGESTION WAS TO INVEST IN MICHELINS TO REDUCE THE ROAD NOISE. HE CALLED BACK ABOUT A WEEK LATER TO LET ME KNOW THERE WERE "SOME KNOWN ISSUES" AND HE LET ME KNOW IT THEY FOUND A FIX. I THEN SEARCHED NHTSA ONLY TO DISCOVER SIMILAR PROBLEMS LISTED , SO HERE I AM, POSTING MY COMPLAINT TO ADD TO THE LIST. HONDA HAS ALSO POSTED TO ANNOUNCE THEY'LL BE RECALLING CERTAIN VEHICLES TO REPLACE THE ENGINE BLOCK BUT YET TO RECEIVE A LETTER AT THIS POINT FOR MINE. I ALSO EXPERIENCE THE VIBRATION AT IDLING, WHICH IS ALSO ANNOYING, BUT IT WAS NOTED ON CONSUMER REPORTS WHEN I RESEARCHED BEFORE BUYING THE CAR SO THERE YA GO. AT THIS POINT THE MAIN FIX NEEDS TO BE THE VIBRATION AT DRIVING SPEED, AND I THEY NEED TO ADDRESS THE IDLING ISSUE TOO. I SHOULD MENTION THE SERVICE MANAGER HAS KEPT IN CONTACT WITH ME AND SAID HE IS DETERMINED TO REMEDY THE SITUATION. *TR
