TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL ENGINE OIL ODOR IN THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE HONDA OF MILFORD LOCATED AT 767 BRIDGEPORT AVE, MILFORD, CT 06460, WHERE THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDE A CAUSE FOR THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 21,000.
Electrical system, Engine, Jul 5, 2020
THE AC SYSTEM HAS SUDDENLY STOPPED WORKING. GOING INTO THE HOT SUMMER MONTHS THE AC SYSTEM OCCASIONALLY BLOWS COLD AIR BUT QUICKLY SWITCHES TO HOT AIR WHEN DRIVING FOR EXTENDED PERIODS (OVER 10 MINUTES). THIS IS NOT ONLY A HUGE INCONVENIENCE IN 80+ DEGREE WEATHER, BUT ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN WITH EXCESSIVE HEAT CIRCULATING IN THE CAR IN THE HOT SUMMER MONTHS. I HAVE TRIED TO REMEDY THE PROBLEM BY CHECKING FREON COMPRESSOR AND CONDENSER BUT NOTHING GIVES. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MAJOR ISSUE ON 2016 MANUFACTURING FOR CIVICS AND CRV'S.
Engine, Jul 1, 2020, crash
I PURCHASED A HONDA CRV IN SEPTEMBER 2016.THE TRANSMISSION /GEARBOX HAS REPEATEDLY FAILED. 1. I DRIVED MY CRV AT 8/18/2018,IT WAS THE CASE AT THAT TIME, THE TRANSMISSION SUDDENLY JUMPED TO THE "N-GEAR" POSITION DURING FORWARD MOVEMENT, AND THEN THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED DUE TO INERTIA DURING THE FORWARD PROCESS , AND THEN THE OIL PAN CRACKED. SO I I TOLD THIS TO THE PERSON WHO PICKED UP THE CAR IN DIAMOND HONDA， BUT THE PERSON WHO PICKED UP THE CAR AT THAT TIME SAID THAT IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE GEARBOX TO SUDDENLY JUMP INTO GEAR. SO I HAVE TO PAY THE REPAIR FEE $469.89. 2.THE ENGINE FAULT CODE P0741 AT 5/23/2020, I HAVE BEEN TO DIAMOND HONDA FOR REPAIR 5/23/2020. THE ENGINE IS LIGHTING UP.ONLY DRIVED 20000 MILE, WHY LIGHTING UP? DIAMOND HONDA CONFIRMED THE TRANSMISSION HASDEFECTED. SO THEY CHANGED AREMANUFACTURED TRANSMISSION TO ME AT 6/2/2020. A REMANUFACTURED OR REFURBISHED PRODUCT IS ONE WHICH IS NOT NEW BUT HAS BEEN TESTED, OFTEN REPACKAGED AND SOLD WITH A "REMANUFACTURED" OR "REFURBISHED" LABEL. A REMANUFACTURED OR REFURBISHED PRODUCT MAY NOT LOOK NEW, BUT IT WILL SHOW ONLY LIMITED WEAR AND IT SHOULD PERFORM AS NEW. THESE DEVICES MIGHT HAVE BEEN OPENED AND RETURNED, OR THEY COULD BE DEMO MODELS, TRADE-INS OR ITEMS RETURNED AT THE END OF A LEASE PERIOD. 3. I PICKED UP MY CRV ON 6/2/2020. BUT IT DID NOT REPAIR AND COULD NOT WORK SINCEDIAMOND HONDA CHANGED AREMANUFACTUREDTRANSMISSION, NOT A NEWTRANSMISSION.WHEN I DRIVE, I CAN'T ACCELERATE SMOOTHLY, AND EVERY TIME I NEED TO INCREASE THE THROTTLE FOR A LONG TIME TO SPEED UP. AND WHEN DRIVING, THERE WILL BE A SERIOUS SENSE OF FRUSTRATION, THE BODY WILL INVOLUNTARILY LEAN FORWARD AND BACKWARD WITH THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE. 1.I REQUEST TO CHANGE A NEW ENTIRE TRANSMISSION 2. REFUND THE REPAIR FEE $469.89 TO ME. 3.I REQUEST TO EXTEND THE ENGINE WARRANTY TO 6 YEARS.

I OWN A 2016 HONDA CR V WITH THE 2.4L EARTH DREAMS ENGINE.. I TOOK A LONG TRIP AND DO SOME CITY DRIVING HOWEVER CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL AFTER ABOUT 500 MILES OF MIXED CIRY AND HIGHWAY AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS WAY OVER THE FULL MARK AND SMELLS LIKE GASOLINE. THE CAR HAS 83,500 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS QUITE CONCERNING TO ME...

I CONSISTENTLY EXPERIENCE SEVERE VIBRATION FELT IN BOTH FRONT SEATS WHEN THE CAR IDLES. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE RPM IS ABOUT 750 OR LESS. IT OCCURS ANY TIME I COME TO A STOP AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR STOP SIGN.

Power train, Engine, Jan 31, 2020
AS OTHER OWNERS HAVE REPORTED, WHEN THE CAR IS IN DRIVE, IDLI NG (AT STOPS), THE WHOLE BODY/ENGINE/TRANSMISSION ARE VIBRATING REALLY HARD. SYMPTOMS IDENTICAL TO TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB) 15-046, DRIVING MODE 1: THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED, BUT IN GEAR.
Power train, Structure, Engine, Jan 19, 2020
WHEN THE GEAR IS IN DRIVING MODE, D, MY VEHICLE STARTS VIBRATING SO MUCH THAT ALL PASSENGERS CAN FEEL IT. ACCORDING TO HONDA, IT IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM TO 2015 CRV (HTTP://OWNERS.HONDA.COM/VEHICLE-INFORMATION/CR-V-2015-VIBRATION-SETTLEMENT.HTML). HOWEVER, IT DOESN'T SEEM THAT THEY FIXED THE PROBLEM IN 2016 CRV. ACCORDING TO HONDA, MY PROBLEM IS VERY OBVIOUS AT DRIVING MODE 1, WHICH MEANS THAT VIBRATIONS MAY BE PRESENT WHEN STOPPED WITH VEHICLE IN GEAR, FOR EXAMPLE AT A STOP LIGHT. THE PROBLEM HAS BEEN THERE FOR A LONG TIME, AND IT COMES MORE SERIOUS NOWADAYS.
Engine, Nov 18, 2019
EXCESSIVE VIBRATION AT IDLE WHEN THE CAR IS IN DRIVE AND CAR GETS TO AROUND 600 RPMS AFTER VEHICLE IS WARM. YOU CAN INCREASE IDLE SPEED AND VIBRATION IS NOT FELT. VERY ANNOYING FOR A RELATIVELY NEW VEHICLE. DON'T AGREE THIS SHOULD BE A NORMAL IDLE VIBRATION CONDITION. FIRST NOTICED THIS CONDITION IN JANUARY 2019 AND ASKED DEALER TO CHECK OUT THIS ISSUE. AT THE TIME MY CAR HAD 30,377 MILES. SINCE THEN THIS ISSUE IS WORSE. HONDA SHOULD HAVE A FIX FOR THIS ISSUE.
Seats, Other or unspecified, Engine, Nov 11, 2019
SEATS HAVE SEVERE VIBRATION AT IDLE. MOST PRONOUNCED AFTER WARMING UP, OR, HIGHWAY DRIVE. (THAT'S WHY TEST DRIVES DON'T SHOW IT!). ALSO, DOOR ARMRESTS VIBRATE. MOST INTOLERABLE; MAKES ONE NAUSEATED. ALSO, GAS MIXED IN WITH OIL! GAS FUME SMELLS NOTED IN CABIN WHILE DRIVING.
Power train, Electrical system, Engine, Nov 4, 2019
ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS FOR THE PAST YEAR, THIS CAR HAS STALLED WHEN YOU PRESS THE GAS PEDAL. YOU PRESS THE GAS, THE CAR "CHUGS," AND EITHER SLOWS DOWN AND HAS TO CATCH UP TO ITSELF, OR IT COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF. IT HAPPENS PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, AT STOP SIGNS, AND INTERSECTIONS. WE'VE BROUGHT THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP MULTIPLE TIMES, AND THEY CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. IT EVEN STALLED ON THEIR TECH ONCE, BUT THEY STILL COULDN'T FIX IT. THEY SUGGESTED REPLACING THE BATTERY, SO WE DID, AND NOTHING CHANGED. THIS IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS, AND NOBODY AT THE DEALERSHIP OR THE CORPORATE OFFICE DID ANYTHING TO ADDRESS THE ISSUE. I BELIEVE THIS CAR SHOULD BE RECALLED AND OFF THE ROAD IMMEDIATELY.

CAR ENGINE **UNDER WARRANTY** IS BURNING EXCESSIVE OIL WHICH CAN EVENTUALLY LEAD TO CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE. [WARRANTY: 5 YR/60K MILES; HAVE OWNED JUST OVER 3 YRS W/ 38K MILES] 1) HAVING WORKED ON MY OWN CARS 30+ YEARS I NOTED IT WAS BURNING FAR TOO MUCH OIL BETWEEN CHANGES. TOOK CAR TO DEALER FOR 'ENGINE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST' 6/29/19; DEALER DENIED CAR HAD BURNED ANY OIL DESPITE STICK SHOWING ENGINE HAD IN FACT BURNED OIL DURING DURATION OF TEST. 2) SENT EMAIL TO HONDA REPORTING THIS ISSUE ('HONDA AUTOMOBILE CUSTOMER SERVICE CASE # 09925699 DATED 10/3/19'). HONDA REPLIED THAT I SHOULD TALK TO THE VERY SAME SERVICE MANAGER WHO DENIED THE ENGINE WAS BURNING ANY OIL LET ALONE EXCESSIVE OIL; IN THE ALTERNATIVE THEY SUGGESTED GOING TO 'ANOTHER CERTIFIED HONDA DEALERSHIP'. SINCE THE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED THE DEFECT & INTERNAL DAMAGE IS ONGOING. I AM CONCERNED THAT DRIVING THE CAR WITHOUT APPROPRIATE REPAIR IS DANGEROUS. A SIMPLE 'GOOGLE SEARCH' REVEALS MINE IS NOT THE ONLY VEHICLE IN THIS MODEL YEAR WITH THIS ISSUE. I NOTE THAT FOR PRIOR MODEL YEARS HONDA HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THIS DEFECT & AT LEAST EXTENDED THE WARRANTY OR EFFECTED REPAIRS. (SEE HONDA SERVICE BULLETIN 12-089) CONSUMER REPORTS SAYS 'IT'S NORMAL FOR CARS TO BURN A LITTLE OIL AS THEY AGE TOWARD 100,000 MILES AND BEYOND. BUT CONSUMER REPORTS BELIEVES THAT FOR AN ALMOST NEW CAR TO BURN THAT EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL IS UNACCEPTABLE.' ('EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ISN'T NORMAL: AUTOMAKERS SAY ADDING OIL BETWEEN SCHEDULED CHANGES IS ACCEPTABLE. IT'S NOT.' CONSUMER REPORTS 6/30/15 HTTPS://WWW.CONSUMERREPORTS.ORG/CRO/MAGAZINE/2015/06/EXCESSIVE-OIL-CONSUMPTION/INDEX.HTM)
