I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE 1 YR AND A FEW MONTHS AND HAVE HAD TO HAVE THE COMPUTER SYSTEM WIPED OUT AND THE SOFTWARE REINSTALLED MORE THAN 2X DUE TO 'PROBLEM' DASH LIGHTS ALL OF THE SUDDEN SCROLLING;ROAD DEPARTURE MITIGATION SYSTEM PROBLEM, ELECTRIC BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM, BRAKE HOLD SYSTEM PROBLEM, TIRE PRESSURE MONITOR PROBLEM, EMISSIONS SYSTEM PROBLEM, ELECTRIC PARKING BRAKE PROBLEM, POWER STEERING SYSTEM PROBLEM, VEHICLE STABILITY ASSIST PROBLEM, HILL START ASSIST PROBLEM, ADAPTIVE CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEM, ECT. THE VEHICLE WAS INVOLVED IN A FENDER BENDER IN THE MIDDLE OF ALL THIS CHAOS, BUT THE PROBLEMS STARTED SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT IT IN MAY2019. AT ONE TIME THE COMPUTER WOULD CLEAR ITSELF OUT AND I COULD RIDE AROUND FOR A DAY OR TWO WITHOUT ALL THESE LIGHTS FLASHING. THAT IS NO LONGER THE CASE. THESE SCROLLING PROBLEM LIGHTS OCCUR AFTER I'VE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD BUT NOW THEY COME ON IMMEDIATELY WHEN I TURN ON THE VEHICLE. PRIOR TO THIS AND MONTHS AGO, WHEN I WAS ROUNDING A CORNER ON THE FREEWAY ALL THE SUDDEN THE BRAKE ASSIST ENGAGED AS IF I WAS TOO CLOSE TO A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. IT WAS QUITE A JOLT. THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED WAS OCTOBER/NOVEMBER. 2019. THIS EVENING I GOT MY OIL CHANGED AND THE MECHANIC FOUND GAS IN MY OIL; I MENTIONED A GAS ODOR LAST WINTER TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN I TOOK IT IN FOR OIL CHANGE. THEY BASICALLY BLEW IT OFF. NO DOUBT ABOUT IT NOW. IN FACT I EVEN SAVED SOME OF THE OIL THAT CAME OUT OF THE ENGINE TO SHOW MY HUSBAND WHEN HE GETS HOME. I HAVE USED TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS THUS FAR BECAUSE OF WORKMANSHIP ISSUES AT THE FIRST DEALERSHIP. NOW DEALERSHIP NUMBER TWO DOES NOT EVEN WANT TO TOUCH MY VEHICLE.

THIS VEHICLE HAS THE AUTOMATIC BRAKING SYSTEM. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE BRAKE WARNING HAS FLASHED WHEN THERE IS NOTHING IN FRONT OF THE CAR. THIS HAS EVEN HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE AT HIGH SPEEDS. MORE RECENTLY LAST WEEK WHEN DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET WITH NO OTHER CARS ON THAT ROAD AND NO PARKED CARS THE CAR AUTOMATICALLY HARD BRAKED WITH NO WARNING. THE WEATHER AT THE TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS A PARTLY CLOUDY DAY. AT THE TIME THE CAR HARD BRAKED I WAS ON A FLAT ROAD GOING ABOUT 25 MPH DRIVING STRAIGHT. HAD THERE BEEN A CAR BEHIND ME WHEN THE AUTONOMOUS BRAKE HARD BRAKED I FEAR I WOULD HAVE BEEN REAR ENDED.

THE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO WILL GO DARK SOMETIMES, BUT ALSO IT WILL SHOW THE BRIGHTNESS DISPLAY AND TURN THE SCREEN BRIGHTNESS ALL THE WAY UP AT NIGHT WHILE I'M DRIVING. IT REALLY BOTHERS ME AND IS DANGEROUS, I HAVE TO PULL OVER FROM DRIVING AND TURN IT BACK DOWN, AND SOMETIMES THE TOUCH SCREEN WONT WORK! THE VOLUME TURNS UP ON IT'S OWN, THE WHOLE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO IS REALLY MESSED UP. I JUST SIGNED FOR THIS CAR AND IT ONLY HAS 36,000 MILES ON IT! I'VE READ MANY OF OTHER COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS TOO, IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED!

THREE ISSUES - 1 - THE KNOB ON MY SHIFT BROKE AND POPPED OFF. THE PLASTIC BROKE, AND RENDERED THE BUTTON USELESS. 2 - THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG WORKS INTERMITTENTLY.

ANOTHER JUNK PIECE OF PLASTIC. THIS HAS CAUSED THE SEAT TO ADJUST UNEXPECTEDLY.

LEAKY COMPRESSOR AND DISCHARGE HOSE WITHIN 4 YEARS, SUGGESTING DEFECTIVE DESIGN/MANUFACTURING, POSSIBLY DUE TO TRANSITION TO 1234YF REFRIGERANT. THIS REFRIGERANT BEING FLAMMABLE AND MORE HAZARDOUS & FLAMMABLE THAN THE PREVIOUS R-134A REFRIGERANT, THIS LEAKAGE REPRESENTS A POSSIBLE SAFETY HAZARD (NOT JUST COMFORT) IS WORTH NOTING THAT THIS ISSUE APPEARED SO WIDESPREAD, THAT ONE DEALER SUGGESTED A 3 WEEK MINIMUM WAIT FOR THE PARTS.

I OWN A 2017 HONDA CRV EXL MODEL. RECENTLY, THE SENSING DEVICE IN THE FRONT OF THE CAR (BELOW THE HONDA LOGO) GOT STOLEN FROM MY CAR. THIS SAFETY SENSOR ASSISTS THE DRIVER WITH FEATURES SUCH AS LANE KEEPING ASSISTANCE, LAND DEPARTURE WARNING, AUTOMATIC CRUISE CONTROL, ETC. I KNOW AT LEAST 5 MORE OWNERS FROM MY APARTMENT COMMUNITY WHOSE CAR'S SENSOR WAS STOLEN. ALL OF US HAVE FILED A POLICE COMPLAIN FOR THEFT. THE PROBLEM WHY I AM ASKING FOR ASSISTANCE IS THAT THE SENSOR CAN BE SO EASILY STOLEN THAT EVEN IF I GET IT FIXED, THERE IS A HIGH PROBABILITY THAT THE SENSOR CAN GET STOLEN AGAIN. ONE DOES NOT NEED ANY TOOL IS STEAL THE SENSOR. ANYONE CAN OPEN THAT PANEL IN A MINUTE AND WALK AWAY WITH AN IMPORTANT SAFETY FEATURE. IT'S THAT EASY. NONE OF US HEARD ANY ANTI THEFT ALARM BUZZING WHEN THE SENSOR WAS STOLEN. THIS IS A SERIOUS DESIGN FLAW AND HONDA SHOULD TAKE COMPLETE RESPONSIBILITY OF THIS DEBACLE AND THAT A PERMANENT SOLUTION SHOULD BE WORKED OUT BY HONDA SO THAT THE OWNERS DO NOT FACE THE ISSUE IN THE FUTURE. *TR

HONDA CRV 2017 SENSORS HAS BEEN STOLEN, WHICH RESULTED IN WARNINGS ON SCREEN TO LIGHT UP. TO MY SURPRISE, ANY ONE CAN EASILY TAKE THE SENSORS WITHOUT ANY TOOL KIT WITHIN SECONDS. MY MAJOR CONCERN IS EVEN IF I GET SENSORS REPLACED, THE SAME INCIDENT CAN HAPPEN EVEN IN NEAR FUTURE, NO OTHER BRANDS IN THIS SEGMENT HAS PUT SENSORS SO CONVENIENTLY TO GET STOLEN. MY QUESTION- IS IT NOT A DESIGN ISSUE, HONDA PLACES SENSORS SUCH A WAY ANY ONE CAN STOLE IT. *TR

EVER SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW, WHEN TURNING A CORNER ON CITY INTERSECTIONS, THE VEHICLE WOULD HESITATE, INTERMITTENTLY. I'VE BEEN AT THE DEALER, AND THEY TELL ME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. RECENTLY I READ ABOUT A RECALL OF CRV'S FOR A FUEL PUMP PROBLEM. NOT BEING A MECHANIC, THIS SOUNDS LIKE MY PROBLEM. UNFORTUNATELY, HONDA DOES NOT HAVE THIS RECALL ON THEIR WEBSITE.

I HAVE A CONCERN ABOUT ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS IN MY CAR WHEN IN MOTION. WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICE AT MY HONDA DEALER, I WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING WAS OK BUT THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURS. ALSO ON 3/9/2020 THE CAR WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER BECAUSE THE BATTERY(LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD) WAS DEAD AND WAS REPLACED BECAUSE THE CAR WAS STILL IN WARRANTY. THEN ON 6/13/2020 THE SECOND BATTERY WAS COMPLETELY DEAD WITH ONLY 663 MILES.I THINK THE SITUATION SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED AND REMEDIED DUE TO CONCERN ABOUT SAFETY. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED THIS TYPE OF THING WITH OTHER VEHICLES THAT I HAVE OWNED. *TR

2017 HONDA CRV LX. I PULLED OIL DIP STICK TO CHECK OIL AND IT SMELLED LIKE STRAIGHT GASOLINE. SO I UNSCREWED OIL CAP SAME THING. NO OIL SMELL JUST GAS. I THEN CONTACTED A LOCAL GARAGE IN MY AREA AND TOLD THEM ABOUT IT. THEY SAID THERE'S DEFINITELY SOMETHING WRONG BECAUSE THERE SHOULD BE NO GAS IN THE OIL. I THEN CONTACTED THE HONDA DEALER IN MY AREA AND THEY SCHEDULED ME AN APPOINTMENT BECAUSE THE MECHANIC I TALKED TO SAID THEIR SHOULDN'T BE GAS IN THE OIL. WHEN I ARRIVED TO MY APPOINTMENT THE MECHANIC I TALKED TO WASN'T WORKING AND THEY GAVE ME ANOTHER HONDA MECHANIC. I EXPLAINED MY CONCERN AND THE FIRST MECHANIC I TALKED TO CONCERNS AND WHAT HE SAID TO ME ON THE PHONE. THEY THEN TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO THE GARAGE TO LOOK AT IT. THE MECHANIC CAME OUT AND SAID HE CHANGED THE OIL FOR US AND ASSURED ME THAT MY VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE THE GAS SMELL IN THE OIL BECAUSE THAT'S THE WAY THE ENGINES WERE DESIGNED. I THEN TOLD HIM THAT I READ A LOT OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE TO HONDA AND IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE LOOKED INTO BY HONDA. HE SAID NEVER IN HIS CAREER HAS HE BIN WRONG ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. I SAID WELL I WANT IT DOCUMENTED IN THE PAPERWORK THAT THE OIL SMELLS LIKE STRAIGHT GAS AND IF SOMETHING WOULD HAPPEN TO THE VEHICLE THAT I WANTED IT FIXED IN FULL BY HONDA BECAUSE OF WHAT HE HAD SAID TO ME. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE TO HONDA. PEOPLE ARE HAVING TO PAY LOTS OF MONEY TO GET THEIR ENGINES FIXED OUT OF POCKET BECAUSE THEY WILL NOT LOOK INTO IT AND FILE A RECALL. OUR VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY STILL AT THIS TIME WITH ONLY 35000 MILES AND NOTHING WAS DONE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. JUST SWEPT UNDER THE RUG SO WHEN IT KILLS THE ENGINE WE THE BUYERS ARE STUCK PAYING FOR IT. I HOPE SOMEONE ACTUALLY REVIEWS THIS AND TAKES ACTION. HONDA HAS ALREADY SAID THEY'D LOOK INTO IT BECAUSE THEY WERE FULLY AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND WOULD RESOLVE THE ISSUE. *TR
