HONDA CRV BRAKING SYSTEM FAILUREJUNE 2018 MODEL: CR-V YEAR: 2017 MILEAGE: 5,900 VIN: [XXX] ON JUNE 23RD, 2018, WHILE EXITING A FREEWAY AT ABOUT 60MPH, I REMOVED MY FOOT FROM THE ACCELERATOR AND APPLIED NORMAL PRESSURE TO THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT NO BRAKING OCCURRED. I TRIED PUMPING THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. I THEN USED GREATLY INCREASED PRESSURE ON THE BRAKE PEDAL, BUT WITH NO DISCERNIBLE EFFECT. AFTER ABOUT EIGHT SECONDS OF CONTINUED EXTREME PEDAL PRESSURE, A YELLOW "BRAKING SYSTEM" WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, FOLLOWED BY A RED "BRAKE" WARNING LIGHT ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE APPEARANCE OF THE WARNING LIGHTS, A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD, COMING FROM THE WHEELS, ACCOMPANIED BY A VIBRATION WHICH I INTERPRETED AS MODULATED BRAKING THAT COULD BE FELT THROUGH MECHANICAL FEEDBACK IN THE PEDAL. THE CAR CAME TO A STOP JUST IN TIME, BEHIND TRAFFIC THAT HAD BEEN WAITING AT A SIGNAL LIGHT. TEN SECONDS AFTER STANDING AT THE LIGHT, ALL WARNING LIGHTS EXTINGUISHED, AND THE BRAKES FUNCTIONED NORMALLY THEREAFTER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FROM WHICH IT WAS PURCHASED FOR WARRANTY REPAIRS, THE SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE STATED THAT HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH THE PROBLEM, HAD RECENTLY ENCOUNTERED AN IDENTICAL CASE OF BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE, BUT THAT HIS SERVICE DEPARTMENT HAD BEEN UNABLE TO FIND THE FAULT OR ENACT REPAIRS. HE DECLINED TO EXAMINE MY VEHICLE ON THAT BASIS. SINCE THE DEALER SERVICE CENTER PROVIDED NO RESOLUTION, I UPDATED THE SOFTWARE IN MY OWN SCANNER, CONNECTED IT TO THE VEHICLE, AND FOUND THAT TWO ERROR CODES HAD BEEN RECORDED: 1) U0418-68/P ESB FAILURE EMINENT 2) U0416-68/P VSA SYSTEM MALFUNCTION DTC I AM CONTINUING TO PURSUE A REMEDY TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM FAILURE THAT OCCURRED IN MY VEHICLE, SINCE IT REPRESENTS AN ONGOING AND UNREASONABLE RISK. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

THE CHROME/PLASTIC SELECTOR PART THAT ALLOWS THE VEHICLE TO BE SHIFTED TO AND FROM PARK AND THE OTHER AUTOMATIC GEARS IS A KNOWN FLAWED HONDA DESIGN. THE SHIFT SELECTOR BUTTON FAILED YESTERDAY ON OUR 2017 CRV. DUE TO THE DESIGN BEING SPRING LOADED, THE BROKEN PART FLEW OUT OF THE SHIFT SELECTOR AND WAS LOST TEMPORARILY. LACKING THIS BROKEN PART AND BEING UNABLE TO REINSERT IT PROPERLY INTO THE SELECTOR, THE VEHICLE CAN'T BE MOVED INTO PARK AND THUS BY HONDA DESIGN CAN'T BE TURNED OFF. THIS IS BOTH A FIRE AND SAFETY HAZARD THAT IS WELL KNOWN TO HONDA (THEY USED THE POOR DESIGN ON EARLIER ACCORD AND OTHER MODELS). WHEN SPEAKING WITH HONDA SERVICE AND PART DEPARTMENT AGENTS, THEY READILY ACKNOWLEDGE THE DESIGN FLAW, ARE DISAPPOINTED HONDA CONTINUED TO USE THE HAZARDOUS DESIGN (IT WAS A SAME PROBLEM IN EARLIER MODELS). HONDA'S RESPONSE SEEMS TO BE TO LET THE SELECTOR BUTTONS FAIL, KEEP A PLENTIFUL SUPPLY OF REPLACEMENTS ON HAND IN THEIR PARTS DEPARTMENTS AND LET THE GENERAL PUBLIC ABSORB THE RISKS. THIS PATTERN AND PRACTICE IS BOTH UNSAFE AND UNACCEPTABLE. HONDA NEEDS TO DESIGN A MORE ROBUST SELECTOR BUTTON AND REPLACE ALL CURRENT ONES VIA A RECALL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH, A SUDDEN LOUD BOOMING NOISE WAS HEARD. THE CONTACT DISCOVERED THAT THE SUN ROOF SHATTERED. DURING THE INCIDENT, THE SUN ROOF WAS IN THE CLOSED POSITION. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (RICK CASE HONDA, 15700 RICK CASE HONDA WAY, DAVIE, FL 33331), BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNABLE TO BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO NOTIFIED, BUT NO ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

REMOVED DIPSTICK AND SMELLED GAS IN OIL. OIL WAS ALSO SO THIN I COULD NOT TAKE A READING. SAW ON VARIOUS WEBSITES OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING SOMETHING SIMILAR. CHECKED AFTER DRIVING THE CAR FOR 15 MINUTES.

I PARKED MY CAR AND TURNED IT OFF TO GO INTO A STORE. WHEN I CAME OUT I FOUND THAT MY CAR HAD ROLLED BACKWARDS INTO ANOTHER CAR. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO DAMAGE TO EITHER CAR, AS I ASSUME IT OCCURRED AT A VERY LOW SPEED. WHEN I RENETERED THE VEHICLE IT WAS STILL IN THE DRIVE GEAR, WHICH WAS MY ERROR. HOWEVER, I DON'T KNOW HOW THE CAR WAS ABLE TO BE TURNED OFF COMPLETELY AND LOCKED WHILE NOT EVEN IN PARK OR EVEN NEUTRAL. MOREOVER THE CAR WAS IN THE DRIVE GEAR, WHICH I WOULD PRESUME WOULD MEAN IT WOULD GO FORWARD, BUT IT WAS STILL ABLE TO ROLL BACKWARDS. THIS IS INCREDIBLY CONCERNING. I CALLED HONDA AND WAS INFORMED THERE ARE NO RECALLS AND THE BEST THEY COULD DO WAS TO INFORM THEIR ENGINEERING TEAM FOR FUTURE MODELS. I HAVE HAD OTHER CARS AND WAS NOT ABLE TO TURN OFF THE IGNITION UNLESS THE CAR WAS IN PARK. HONDA SHOULD BE FORCED TO IMPLEMENT THIS AS WELL AS I CANNOT THINK OF ANY REASON TO KEEP YOUR CAR IN DRIVE WHILE THE ENGINE IS COMPLETELY OFF.

OUR 2017 HONDA CRV EXL HAS A CLIMATE CONTROL ISSUE WHEN TEMPERATURES GET BELOW FREEZING AND THE PROBLEM GETS WORSE AS THE TEMPERATURE LOWERS. THE VEHICLE ENGINE WILL NOT WARM UP AND OF COURSE THE CLIMATE CONTROL WILL NOT WARM UP THE VEHICLE CABIN. THE ONLY WAY WE CAN GET ANY HEAT INSIDE THE VEHICLE IS BY CIRCULATING INSIDE AIR BUT WHEN YOU DO THAT,THE WINDOWS FOG UP AND OF COURSE YOU HAVE TO USE A RAG TO KEEP FOG OFF WINDOWS. HONDA WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THERES A PROBLEM. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION BECAUSE MOST OF OUR DRIVING IS TOWN DRIVING AND WINDOWS FOGGING OVER IS A CONSTANT PROBLEM WHEN CIRCULATING INSIDE AIR.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION - BUTTON ON GEAR SHIFT BROKE AND SINCE IT HAS A SPRING - THE BUTTON CAN COME OUT OF THE GEAR SHIFT. IF THIS OCCURS, THE GEAR SHIFT CAN NO LONGER BE USED UNTIL THE BUTTON IS FOUND ARE REINSERTED. THIS COULD RESULT IN NUMEROUS DANGEROUS SITUATION.

THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INTERLOCK RELEASE BUTTON BROKE (HONDA PART NO. 54132-TLA-A62ZB) THEREBY MAKING THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTER INOPERABLE INCLUDING THE ABILITY TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK POSITION. ALL I DID WAS TO TRY TO PLACE THE TRANSMISSION IN PARK AND, WHEN I DEPRESSED THE RELEASE BUTTON ON THE STALK, IT FELL ABART. I WAS NOT ABLE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE AT THAT POINT.
Seat belts, Jun 13, 2018
THE REAR CENTER PASSENGER'S LEFT SEAT BELT BUCKLE ANCHOR IS REVERSED MAKING IT NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO PROPERLY BUCKLE 3 PASSENGERS IN THE BACK SEAT. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AS MY CENTER PASSENGERS, FINDING IT A HERCULEAN FEAT WHEN SEATED, OFTEN DECLINE TO BUCKLE UP. I'VE INCLUDED TWO PHOTOS OF THIS BUCKLE SHOWING THIS CONDITION. AS SEEN WHEN BUCKLED W/O A PASSENGER, THE BELTS OVERLAP. BECAUSE OF THIS THE CENTER PASSENGER'S BODY PREVENTS ACCESS TO THE BUCKLE AS IT IS HIDDEN BEHIND THE STRAP OF THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER. I UNDERSTAND THAT HONDA DESIGNED IT THIS WAY TO PROVIDE WIDER SEATING FOR THE LEFT REAR PASSENGER. HOWEVER, THIS DESIGN IS DANGEROUS AND IS UNACCEPTABLE AND WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO FATALITIES. ALSO I'M TOLD THAT THE HONDA ACCURA'S DESIGN IS CORRECT.

VEHICLE: 2017 HONDA CRV TOURING - 5 MILES WHEN PURCHASED ON 05/01/2017 - 2,000 MILES WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THERE WAS A PROBLEM. I AM AT ABOUT 6,000 MILES NOW. INITIALLY I NOTICED A CLICKING SOUND EMANATING FROM THE ENGINE GET LOUDER OVER TIME. ADDITIONALLY, IN THE WINTER, HEAT TOOK A LONG TIME TO COME ON. I WAS FOLLOWING A CRV FORUM (HONDACRVOWNERS.COM) AND NOTICED A LOT OF PEOPLE START MENTIONING FUEL IN THE OIL. THEN SAW NEWS ARTICLES ABOUT A HUGE CRV RECALL IN CHINA'S COLD CLIMATE AREAS WITH THE SAME SYMPTOMS. I THEN BEGAN CHECKING THE OIL FREQUENTLY AND NOTICED A DEFINITE FUEL SMELL ON THE DIPSTICK AND RISING ABOVE THE FULL MARK. I HAVE NOT NOTICED A FUEL SMELL IN THE CABIN, FORTUNATELY, AS SOME HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT, BUT THIS IS NOT GOOD FOR AN ENGINE. TWO HONDA DEALERS HAVE TOLD ME THEY ARE AWARE OF THE ISSUE, BUT NOT TO WORRY ABOUT IT AND TO CHECK THE OIL SINCE NO LIGHTS ARE ON AND SCANS SHOW NO PROBLEM. OF COURSE! NO PROBLEMS YET, BUT MOST DRIVERS DON'T CHECK THEIR OIL AND WON'T NOTICE A PROBLEM UNTIL THE ENGINE COMPLETELY FAILS AND PUTS THE OCCUPANTS' LIVES IN DANGER.
Fuel/propulsion system, Jun 1, 2018
AFTER SMELLING STRONG ODOR OF GAS,(CAR IDLING) CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO CHECK OIL LEVEL. THE OIL LEVEL WAS OVER FULL AND SMELLED LIKE GAS . OTHER HONDA VEHICLES WHICH HAVE THE SAME 1.5T ENGINE HAVE REPORTED THE SAME ISSUE HERE IN THE STATES. I AM TOLD HONDA RECOMMENDS MONITORING THE OIL LEVEL AND CHANGING IT EVERY 500 MILES UNTIL THIS PROBLEM IS REMEDIED. WHAT IF SOMEONE DOESN'T REALIZE THEIR OIL LEVEL IS OVERFULL AND THE OIL SYSTEM OVER PRESSURIZES OR THE GAS IGNITES INSIDE THE OIL SUMP WHILE DRIVING? AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM SOME HONDA CARS USING THIS SAME 1.5T ENGINES IN CANADA AND CHINA ARE ALSO EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

I BOUGHT THIS HONDA CRV 2017 AWD ON 04/01/2017 FROM HONDA FOLSOM. ON APRIL 24,2018, IT WOULD NOT START. I CALLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE TO JUMPSTART IT AND BROUGHT THIS TO THE DEALER IN FOLSOM. THEY CHANGED THE BATTERY ON APRIL 24, 2018. TODAY, MAY 30, 2018, IT DID NOT START AGAIN SO IT WAS JUMPSTARTED AGAIN AND BROUGHT THIS TO HONDA ROSEVILLE. THEY CHANGED AGAIN THE BATTERY. THEY SAID ALL THE ELECTRICAL ARE GOOD AND NO EXPLANATION GIVEN WHY THE BATTERY DON'T LAST. THESE 2 SITUATIONS, LUCKILY, HAPPENED IN MY GARAGE. WE DID NOT HAVE ANY SITUATION THAT COULD DISCHARGE THE BATTERY.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, May 30, 2018
FUEL-OIL SMELL IN CABIN AND OUTSIDE THE CAR WHEN IT IS PARKED IN-DOOR AFTER DRIVE. FUEL IN OIL. THE OIL LEVEL EXCEEDS MAXIMUM. GASOLINE SMELL IN THE OIL. THE CAR DOES NOT COMPLY WITH THE MANUFACTURER'S TECHNICAL SPECIFICATION. RISKS AND POTENTIAL IMPACTS: THE ODOR CAUSES IRRITATION OF RESPIRATORY SYSTEM. IT CAN CAUSE HEALTH PROBLEMS. ACCORDING TO HONDA : "OVERFILLING THE ENGINE OIL CAN RESULT IN LEAKS AND ENGINE DAMAGE." THE DILUTED BY GASOLINE OR ANY OTHER SUBSTANCE OIL IMPACTS ENGINE WORK AND THE AIR TURBINE WHICH IS LUBRICATED AND COOLED BY ENGINE OIL. I AM AFRAID OF THE CAR ENGINE MAY STOP ON A ROAD CAUSING A COLLISION.
Engine, May 29, 2018
DURING THE FIRST OIL CHANGE WE REMOVED OVER 5 QUARTS OF LIQUID. THE OWNERS MANUAL STATES THAT THE CAR HOLDS ONLY 3.7 QUARTS OF OIL. WE CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WE BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY INFORMED US THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THE 2017 HONDA CR-V. GAS IS GETTING INTO THE OIL. I AM NOW GETTING FREE OIL CHANGES, THEY STATED I SHOULD COME IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE WHENEVER THE LIQUID RISES ABOVE THE FILL LINE ON THE DIPSTICK. I HAVE MANAGED TO GET AN OIL CHANGE EVERY 7010 DAYS SINCE APRIL 12, 2018. THE LAST OIL CHANGE I HAD THERE WAS AT LEAST 1 QUART OF GAS IN THE OIL DRAINED OUT OF THE RESERVOIR. THAT WAS 10 DAYS AFTER THE LAST OIL CHANGE. I HAVE CONTACTED HONDA NUMEROUS TIMES AND THE ONE TIME I ACTUALLY TALKED TO MY CASE MANAGER SHE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS NORMAL OPERATION AND HONDA IS NOT CONSIDERING THIS AN ISSUE. EVERYTHING I HAVE READ SO FAR STATES THAT EXCESS GAS IN THE OIL IS AN ISSUE AND VERY BAD FOR THE ENGINE. I AM CONCERNED THAT MOST CONSUMERS WHO PURCHASED A 2017 HONDA CR-V ARE NOT AWARE OF THIS ISSUE.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, May 28, 2018
I HEARD THAT THERE IS OIL LEVEL INCREASE PROBLEM ON THIS MAKE, MODEL, AND YEAR'S ENGINE BECAUSE OF FUEL LEAK, SO I CHECKED THE ENGINE OIL LEVEL A FEW HUNDRED MILES AFTER CHANGING THE OIL AND FOUND THAT THE OIL LEVEL IS MUCH HIGHER THAN THE MAXIMUM MARK ON THE DIPSTICK. I BROUGHT THE CAR TO DEALER PREVIOUSLY, COMPLAINING OF A SMELL OF GAS IN THE OIL WHEN I CHECKED IT INITIALLY, AND THEY SAID IT IS FINE, THAT NOTHING IS WRONG. BOTH TIMES OF CHECKING THE OIL, THE CAR WAS IN MY GARAGE, STATIONARY, ON LEVEL GROUND.
Engine, Fuel/propulsion system, May 28, 2018
THERE IS CERTAINLY AN EXCESS AMOUNT OF GAS MIXED IN ENGINE OIL. ONLY FEW WEEKS AFTER OIL CHANGE, THE OIL LEVEL IS ALREADY 20 MM ABOVE THE MAX LINE. IT'S CERTAINLY A DESIGN FLAW AND I THINK HONDA SHOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MISTAKE AND THE CUSTOMERS. IT'S HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AND HOPE THE RELEVANT RESOURCES CAN TAKE ACTION TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE.
