I put my car in reverse and it stalled. It began rolling backwards. The battery light came on. I live near two churches and people were leaving church. My vehicle rolled backward and nearly hit the car behind me. I'm so grateful that none of the people leaving church were hit- the area is so busy and everyone has to walk to their cars parallel parked on the side of the road. I started rolling backwards rapidly and neither they nor I would have had any warning that was about to happen. That's just a bit of luck. I was surprised to find this is a well known issue described in Honda Service Bulletin 18-072 and reported frequently to the NHTSA. It's just chance I didn't hit a car or person since the stall occurred on an incline and in a busy area. I'm just so shocked the car hasn't been recalled to fix this dangerous problem.

Honda CRV E-XL bought in 2016 from Coral Springs Honda, FL and always maintained at Honda Dealership died on freeway on 08/06/2021 in approximately 5 years. When towed in nearest Firestone they routed to Honda as they suspect the coolant has breached into 4 cylinders. Honda Dealership (First Texas Honda Austin ) is quoting around $10000 for a new engine replacement for 3 - 4 grand for an older engine of similar miles. My question is does Honda engines typically dies at 50k mile marks. I trusted Honda to last for 200k plus. Does Honda need to instrospect the engines manufactured for 2016 CRVs. What went wrong to this engine does it requires Honda to recall 2016 Honda CRV as I would have met an accident due to my car dying all of sudden on a freeway. The car started giving fumes from AC vent and all the warning light flashed on the dashboard. Please please help me getting my car fixed as I cannot afford that much of money. Honda Case Number: 12418365.

Rear backup camera failed after less than 5 years of very light use, I only have less than 9,000 miles in my vehicle. Backup camera is completely off, for example, wide angle is now displaying ground angle, normal angle is now out of alignment. I bought and replaced it with a brand new backup camera, but the problem persists that tells me that the problem is something else possibly related to the software if it wasn't hardware. This is potentially a safety hazard because I now have to turn my head to backup rather than using it together with my backup camera. I asked dealer to take a look, but they quoted me $605.00 for a potential fix, did not make a guarantee that the problem will be resolved. At first, the problem happen intermittently, but now seem to be permanent. I Google about this problem on the Internet, seem to happen to a lot of Honda vehicles, but there was never a clear solution as to what caused it. Attached a photo, wide angle view went to the ground instead, even normal angel view is completely out of rack and out of alignment.
Vehicle speed control, Jul 21, 2021, crash
Upon moving into a parking spot, I slowed down, and suddenly the car surged unbelievably fast. I ran into a brick wall about 4 or 5 feet in front of the car. No other people were around, but certainly, I was at risk. This problem has happened to me in this 2016 CRV, and in another CRV, 2015. Twice in the 2015. The dealer has not reproduced the situation. It is intermittent. This first CRV happened around 15000 or 16000 miles. This car has around 44000 -45000 miles on it. Of course, the dealership says I had my foot on the gas. I DID NOT! Either of the 3 TIMES. It has not been inspected by the manufacturer, police insurance reps, etc. No one is interested in doing do. Certainly not Honda. I have found numerous examples on the internet of people experiencing the exact same thing. They describe exactly what happened to me. There is no warning whatsoever. I know Honda will do nothing, until it becomes impossible for Honda to ignore. In the meantime, I wonder how many people will have to be injured or worse. I am asking nothing from Honda. That is hopeless. I am going to junk the car. I cannot in good conscience sell it. I did sell the 20015 back to Honda, as they "assured" me it would be checked, and this was just an anomaly.

Electrical system, Seats, Jul 1, 2021
This is an intermittent problem. The electric driver seat adjusts on its own--this vehicle does not have 1 or 2 position memory option. Several times when the car has been driven and parked (such as at a store, or overnight in the driveway) when returning to the vehicle the seat is in a different position, having moved itself completely forward. This has happened when the car is not running and is not in accessory mode. Yesterday while the car was running, but not yet moving, the seat adjusted itself completely forward, pinning my husband to the steering wheel. The pressure was so great that he could not breathe. It was extremely difficult for him to reach the seat adjustment button to free himself. This could have been a fatal incident if no one was nearby to assist. THIS IS CERTAINLY A SAFETY ISSUE!! There were no warning lamps or messages displayed at any time indicating a problem of any kind. The vehicle has not yet been checked for this specific issue, however it had been through a routine service and dealer safety inspection one week prior to the incident. The dealer is unable to service the vehicle until 7/13/2021. I have an appointment scheduled for that day.

Vehicle stalls when driving, power steering, tire pressure, and check engine light all come on, but when mechanic checks there’s no codes popping up. Then vehicle stalls again.

Driver's side rear door window exploded without cause and shattered while it was parked in the garage, with most falling to the ground and some landing on the back passenger seat and floor. There had been no damage to the window prior. No warning lights/messages, no undue stress to the window.

At idle speeds (less than 800 rpm), the shake and vibration was so severe in the front dash and the front seat that I did not hear the sirens of ambulence going by as my 20 oz waterbottle was shaking and clacking on the sides of the cup holder. I did not hear the oncoming emergency vehicle as it sped toward me 90 degrees from where I was headed and missed the crash by a few feet. Plastics and dash covers steering wheel and are shaking vigorously inside the car and it only happens at low RPMs. 2015 honda crv TSB states that the problems were fixed for 2016 models (exact same problems that I am having: drive Mode 1 at idle speeds), but I am having this issue since day 1 of getting this car. It has been over 5 years and if the shakes continue to get worse, and I can not hear what is coming toward me, I will could be in dangerous situations that I just experienced, like not hearing the oncoming emergecy vehicles or someone honking at me to be safe. This only occurs for my vehicle when it is in drive and the car is not moving. As I give gas and RPM goes up, zero issues with vibration(s) occur.

STARTED THE CAR IN THE PARKING LOT. THE ENGINE WAS IDLING A BIT ROUGH. PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE. SUDDENLY THE ENGINE ROARED AND ACCELERATED. TRIED TO APPLY THE BRAKE. IT DID NOT WORK. FORTUNATELY DID NOT HIT ANY OTHER CARS IN THE PARKING LOT. THE CAR JUMPED OVER THE CURB AT THE EDGE OF THE PARKING LOT, WENT INTO A DITCH AND HIT A TREE. CAME TO A STOP. THE AIRBAG WAS ACTIVATED. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING AT HIGH RPM. FORTUNATELY THIS MALFUNCTION HAPPENED IN A PARKING LOT AND NOT ON A BUSY CITY ROAD !!!!! THIS BIZARRE INCIDENT POINTS TO POTENTIAL MALFUNCTION OF THE COMPUTER CONTROLS. FORENSIC INVESTIGATION IS NEEDED TO RULE OUT THIS POSSIBILITY.

PULLED THE CAR OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND SHIFTED THE GEAR TO DRIVE. EVEN BEFORE I PRESSED THE GAS PEDAL, THE ENGINE ROARED AND THE CAR SPED OUT OF CONTROL. THE BRAKE FAILED. FORTUNATELY WAS ABLE TO AVOID OTHER PARKED CARS AND THE CAR CAME TO A STOP IN A DITCH AT THE EDGE OF THE PARKING LOT. THE CAR MAY HAVE TRAVELED ABOUT 100 YDS BEFORE COMING TO STOP. THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED AND THE DAMAGE TO THE FRONT OF THE CAR MAY BE EXTENSIVE. REPORTING THIS FAILURE TO THE NHTSA IN CASE THERE ARE OTHER SIMILAR EVENTS HAPPENING WITH THE 2016 HONDA CR-V MODEL.

I BELIEVE A SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION ISSUE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT WITH MY 2016 HONDA CR-V AS I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON DECEMBER 12, 2019. AT THAT TIME, I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR OVER 36 YEARS BOTH ON MAUI AND AS AN AIR FORCE OFFICER IN THE CONUS. IN ALL THAT TIME, I HAD NEVER DRIVEN RECKLESSLY OR EVEN SPED AS IS EVIDENCED BY MY DRIVING RECORD. THAT MORNING, MY VEHICLE HAD REPORTEDLY BEEN DRIVING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED AND ENDED UP FLIPPING OVER SEVERAL TIMES LEADING TO MY HOSPITALIZATION AND SURGERY FOR SPINAL FUSION. UNFORTUNATELY, DUE TO THE RESULTING CONCUSSION, I CAN'T REMEMBER ANYTHING FROM THE MORNING OF THE INCIDENT UNTIL WAKING UP IN THE ICU AFTER SURGERY, NOT EVEN DRIVING TO WORK. KNOWING THAT I WOULD NEVER PURPOSELY SPEED, I HIRED SOMEONE TO DOWNLOAD THE BLACK BOX DATA. TO MY SHOCK, IT SHOWED CONSTANT ACCELERATION, NO STEERING INPUTS, AND NO BRAKING INPUTS FOR AT LEAST FIVE SECONDS. THE ONLY REASON I'VE DECIDED TO PUT THIS OUT THERE NOW IS DUE TO THE PARALLELS I'VE READ ABOUT WITH TIGER WOODS' RECENT ACCIDENT. I DON'T BELIEVE ANYONE WHO HAS DRIVEN FOR DECADES WOULD EVER MISTAKE THE ACCELERATOR FOR THE BRAKE PEDAL. MOREOVER, IF THEY DID, THEIR INSTINCT WOULD BE TO QUICKLY RELEASE THE ACCELERATOR THEN BRAKE, DEFINITELY NOT TO CONTINUE TO FLOOR IT FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. I'M NOT EXPECTING TO GET ANYTHING PERSONALLY OUT OF THIS COMPLAINT. MY MAIN HOPE IS THAT INVESTIGATION WILL BE DONE TO PREVENT FURTHER INJURIES AND DEATHS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE TO SEE IF MANY OTHER BLACK BOX REPORTS FROM SIMILAR ACCIDENTS SHOW ACCELERATOR FLOORED WITH NO BRAKING OR STEERING INPUTS FOR SEVERAL SECONDS. PERHAPS THERE IS SOME COMBINATION OF INPUTS CAUSING WRONG SIGNALS TO BE SENT TO THE ELECTRONIC CONTROL MODULE. I BELIEVE THE REASON THERE AREN'T MANY MORE REPORTS OF THIS IS DUE TO THE UNFORTUNATE FACT THAT IN MOST CASES, THE DRIVER ENDS UP EITHER DEAD OR HAVING A CONCUSSION.

I SMELL GASOLINE WHILE SITTING IN THE CABIN DRIVING. MY CAR HAS SAT ALL NIGHT AND I'M PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY WITH THE CAR RUNNING AND I SMELL GASOLINE. IT SMELLS LIKE WHEN THERE IS A SMALL CAN OF GAS IN THE CAR A LAWN MOWER. SPEAKING OF WHICH, THE SMELL IS NOT UNLIKE THE SMELL YOU GET WHEN YOU SPILL GAS ON YOUR LAWNMOWER AND START MOWING THE LAWN. HONDA REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING. I WAS SUPPOSED TO TAKE THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP BUT THEN THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME. I CAN'T AFFORD IT. MY SON READ OF THIS PROBLEM IN HONDA CR-V FORUM WHERE THEY TALKED ABOUT THE OIL PAN BEING AN ISSUE. BUT THE CAR MODEL WAS NOT A 2016 AND IS IS SUPPOSED TO HAVE A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST THEM FOE THIS ISSUE BUT IT IS COMING. I CAN'T LIVE WITH THIS SMELL.
