PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN. CAR WILL NOT START AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT. DEALER PERFORMED SOFTWARE UPDATE WHICH DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM TO D ME THAT HONDA HAD ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN ON THE PROBLEM
Electrical system, Jan 22, 2018
I DON'T KNOW WHERE TO FILE THIS UNDER. THE HEATING SYSTEM IS AN ABSOLUTE JOKE. I PAID A LOT OF MONEY FOR THIS NOT TO BE AN ISSUE IN A BRAND NEW CAR. . NOT SAFE IN CONDITIONS WHERE IT'S AT FRIGID TEMPS. I HAVE BEEN SITTING IN MY CAR FOR A HALF AN HOUR AND IT'S STILL NOT WARM. UNCALLED FOR. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE.
Other or unspecified, Jan 18, 2018
THIS VEHICLE HAS A MAJOR HEATING ISSUE. THE HEATING IN THE VEHICLE IS THE WORST I HAVE SEEN YET. YOU CAN LITERALLY BE WAITING FOR A TRAIN OR AT A STOP LIGHT AND WATCH THE ENGINE TEMPERATURE FALL DOWN AND YOUR VENTILATION BEGIN TO BLOW COLD AIR, EVEN IF YOU'VE BEEN DRIVING THE CAR FOR HALF AN HOUR BEFORE THAT. I USE REMOTE START ALMOST EVERYDAY DURING THE WINTER, I LET THE CAR RUN FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AND WHEN I GET INSIDE, IT'S STILL COLD AS IF IT HASN'T BEEN RUNNING. THIS IS A SAFETY PROBLEM FOR ME BECAUSE I HAVE A 4 MONTH OLD SON AND HE CAN'T BE CONSTANTLY MOVED FROM A WARM INTO A COLD ENVIRONMENT. I LIVE IN CHICAGO AND THE WINTERS CAN BE ROUGH BUT I NEVER HAD A VEHICLE THAT WAS THIS COLD. I AM SO DISAPPOINTED AND I WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER HONDA AGAIN (I'VE OWNED A TOTAL OF 3) UNLESS THEY ISSUE A RECALL AND RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM.

ON A DAY WITH SIGNIFICANT WINTER WEATHER I DROVE MY VEHICLE AND WHEN I ARRIVED AT MY DESTINATION AND PARKED I WAS UNABLE TO OPEN THE DRIVERS DOOR. THE STATE OF THE DOOR LOCK DIDN'T MATTER. I CALLED A FRIEND WHO CAME OVER TO HELP. THEY SAID THAT THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE HAD FAILED TO RETRACT FULLY. THEY PUSHED IT IN AND THE DOOR WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ABLE TO OPEN. THE FAILURE OF THE EXTERIOR DOOR HANDLE TO RETURN TO THE CLOSED POSITION APPEARED TO BE DUE TO A BIT OF ICE. THE APPARENT SITUATION IS THAT IF THE EXTERIOR HANDLE IS OUT OF POSITION THEN THE INTERIOR HANDLE CAN FAIL TO OPEN THE DOOR.

THE REAL PROBLEMS START AT ABOUT 15 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT.THE CAR WILL NOT HEAT UP WITH NORMAL CITY DRIVING THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE STAYS AT 0. THE COLDER IT GETS OUTSIDE THE WORSE IT IS. CAUSE WE HAVE ALREADY SEEM MUCH COOLER TEMPS THAN 15 LIKE -15.IF I DRIVE ON THE HI-WAY THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE WILL RAISE TO NORMAL OPERATING TEMP ALTHOUGH THE CABIN AIR NEVER REALLY GETS WARM IT IS BETTER THAN NOTHING, WORST HEAT OUTPUT OF ANY VEHICLE I HAVE EVER OWNED ONCE I LEAVE THE HI-WAY AND GET IN THE CITY THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE WILL GO BACK TO 0 IF I HAVE TO STOP AND WAIT AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS.ON MY WAY TO WORK THE CAR CAN BE AT NORMAL ENGINE OPERATING TEMP I STOP AT A GAS STATION TO GET A DRINK LEAVE THE CAR IDLING GET BACK IN LESS THAN 2 MINUTES AND THE ENGINE TEMP GAUGE IS BACK TO 0 AGAIN.SO I DECIDED TO RUN SOME TEST.I CHECKED THE CR-V OUTSIDE TEMP PRETTY WARM AT AROUND 30 FAHRENHEIT.TEMP SET TO HI FAN ON HI, TEMP OUT VENTS WAS 140 FAHRENHEIT THIS IS NOT PASSING BY THE MANUFACTURING STANDARDS I FOUND ON THE WEB.TEMP SET TO HI FAN SPEED LOW, TEMP OUT VET 155 FAHRENHEIT THIS IS 15 DEGREES WARMER WHICH SHOW EVEN AT 30 DEGREES FAHRENHEIT OUTSIDE AIR TEMP THE HEATING SYSTEM CAN'T MAINTAIN ITS TEMPERATURE WITH FAN ON HI.

VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN GARAGE FOR A FEW DAYS OVER HOLIDAYS. WHEN LEAVING TO MEET RELATIVES AT A RESTAURANT, THE CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. BATTERY WAS AT 3.3 VOLTS. CALLED THE HONDA DEALER AND HE SUGGESTED HONDA'S FREE SERVICE; ALSO, MAYBE THE CAR SHOULD BE DRIVEN DAILY. (?!) I ASKED IF I COULD REMOVE THE BATTERY AND CHARGE IT WITH MY BATTERY CHARGER. HE SAID THAT WOULD BE OK. I CHARGED OVERNIGHT ON TRICKLE CHARGE. THE NEXT DAY THE BATTERY WAS AT 13 VOLTS. I PUT IT BACK IN THE CAR, WAITED 10 MINUTES FOR ALL SYSTEMS TO BOOT UP AND TOOK IT FOR A DRIVE. SEEMED ALRIGHT. LOOKING ONLINE, I NOTICED A HONDA TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (17-032) REFERRING TO PARASITIC BATTERY DRAIN AND MY VIN FIT THE PARAMETERS. I NOW HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER TO CHECK IT OUT. SURPRISINGLY, THE SERVICE MANAGER SAID THE DEALER HAD NOT HEARD OF THIS BULLETIN AND WAS NOT AWARE OF THIS PROBLEM. I HAD ASSUMED HONDA WOULD DISTRIBUTE ALL BULLETINS TO ALL DEALERS, BUT APPARENTLY THAT'S NOT THE CASE. HOPEFULLY THE SOFTWARE UPDATES WILL FIX THIS PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED THIS CR-V NEW FROM THE HONDA DEALERSHIP IN SARASSOTA, FL IN FEB 2017. O/S SRS LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. IT IS AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM. WHEN IT COMES ON, IT STAYS ON UNTIL THE CAR IS TURNED OFF. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR AT LEAST 3 MONTHS. I HAD STARTED TAKING PICTURES OF THE ACTUAL METER PANEL SPEEDOMETER WITH THE O/S SRS LIGHT ON EVERY DAY TO SHOW THE FREQUENCY AND MAGNITUDE OF THIS ISSUE. ON 11/11/17, STORED CODES WERE DELETED A FEW TIMES AT BRADENTON, FL DEALERSHIP WITH NO SUCCESS. "SYSTEM OPERATING AS DESIGNED" IS WHAT I WAS TOLD BY HONDA DEALERSHIP. ON 11/13 - 11/21/17, O/S SRS LIGHT CAME ON AFTER CODES CLEARED. RETURNED TO HONDA DEALERSHIP IN BRADENTON, FL. THEY CHECKED PIN FIT AT AIR BAG CONNECTOR AND SRS UNIT. CONTINUITY WAS CONFIRMED. NO MOUSE OR WATER DAMAGE. DRIVER'S SEAT AIR BAG WAS REPLACED PER HONDA TECH LINE. THE DEALERSHIP WAS IN POSSESSION OF OUR CR-V DURING THESE DATES. ON 12/13/17, O/S SRS LIGHT KEEPS COMING ON. THE BRADENTON, FL DEALERSHIP. SCANNED FOR SRS CODES (SAME AS BEFORE, 'B0020-13"), OPEN OR INCREASED RESISTANCE ON THE LEFT SIDE. REVIEWED DATA WITHE TECH LINE AND THEY HAD DEALERSHIP REPLACE THE SRS CONTROL UNIT. INITIALIZED SEAT WEIGHT SENSOR TO VERIFY REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. TECH DROVE VEHICLE 85 MILES TO CONFIRM REPAIR WAS COMPLETED. TECH LINE REF#4044223 ON 12/14/17 THE O/S SRS LIGHT CAME ON STILL. DUE TO OUR VACATION FROM SARASOTA, FL TO OHIO FOR CHRISTMAS, THE BRADENTON HONDA DEALERSHIP COULD NOT PROVIDE A LOANER FOR ANY OUT OF STATE DRIVING. SO, WE DROVE THIS CRV TO OHIO WITH THE O/S SRS LIGHT ON FOR 95% OF OUR 2600 MILE TRIP. NEGOTIATED WITH AM HONDA AND BRADENTON, FL DEALERSHIP TO BRING CR-V BACK ON 1/8/18. A HONDA 'TECHNICIAN SPECIALIST' IS BEING FLOWN IN FROM TORRENCE, CA TO FIX IT. MY WIFE AND I RETIRED FROM HONDA OF AMERICA MFG INC WITH 50 COMBINED YEARS OF MANUFACTURING SERVICE BUILDING HONDAS.

CAR IS GARAGED (UNHEATED). THIS AM, THE WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID WOULD NOT SPRAY EVEN THOUGH I HEARD THE SPRAY MOTOR RUNNING. I TRIED THE SPRAY IN MY WIFE'S 2017 ACCORD AND THE SPRAY WORKED. IN MY 60 YEARS OF DRIVING WITH MANY DIFFERENT CARS, THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED AND WE HAVE HAD PLENTY OF FREEZING DAYS OVER THE YEARS. THE SPRAY LINES MUST BE IN AN EXPOSED POSITION AND THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. WITH CARS AHEAD OF YOU ON THE ROAD THROWING UP SNOW, SALT, ETC. ONTO THE WINDSHIELD AND YOU CANNOT CLEAN IT, THE VISIBILITY WILL BE OBSCURED. IF THIS IS NOT CORRECTED, THOSE WITH CRV'S WILL BE HARD PRESSED TO DRIVE ON SNOWY DAYS.

VEHICLE IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY DURING WINTER WEATHER. WINDSHIELD FLUID NOZZLES FROZE. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE WINDSHIELD FLUID, THE WIPERS COME ON AUTOMATICALLY FOR THREE SWEEPS. BECAUSE THERE WAS NO AVAILABLE FLUID, THE WIPERS SMEARED THE SNOW, DIRT, AND SALT ON THE WINDSHIELD, RESULTING IN ZERO VISION. BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD, I HAD SOME VISIBILITY. AFTER ATTEMPTING TO CLEAN THE WINDSHIELD, I HAD NO VISIBILITY. THIS "CONVENIENCE FEATURE" OF AUTOMATED WIPER SWIPES IS THEREFORE DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE BANNED.

WHEN TURNING ON CAR, I INTERMITTENTLY SMELL STRONG ODOR OF FUEL INSIDE THE CAR. I BROUGHT CAR TO HONDA DEALER (CAR IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD) AND DEALER STATED "THEY DIDN'T SMELL OR SEE ANYTHING" AND THEY DID NOT TAKE ISSUE SERIOUSLY AND DID NOT RUN ANY TESTS. I DO NOT USE "CHEAP GAS" AS DEALER HAD SUGGESTED, AND CAR WAS NEVER IN A GARAGE ANY TIME WHEN STRONG ODOR WAS PRESENT.

HONDA CRV 2017 COLLISION SYSTEM FAILED, LED TO BRAKE FAIL AND ACCIDENT, FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING NOW- ON DEC 28TH 2017, WHILE DRIVING MY 2017 CRV, I HAD TO STOP AT STOP SIGN, I TRIED TO APPLY BRAKES BUT THEY FAILED COMPLETELY AS IN NO RESPONSE BY PRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE COLLISSION MITIGATION SYSTEM ON HONDA MALFUNCTIONED AND MESSED WITH THE BRAKING, AS A RESULT THE BRAKES FAILED AND I HIT THE CAR IN FRONT. NOW MY QUESTION IS WHAT WILL HONDA DO IN THIS CASE. I AM ALSO WORRIED NOW FOR FUTURE, TODAY I WAS DRIVING AT 10-15 MPH IN A SMALL STREET AND WAS ALONE IN THE CAR. WHAT IF MY ENTIRE FAMILY WAS IN THE CAR AND THIS HAPPENED ON A FREEWAY AT 70-75 MPH. MY DRIVER AIRBAG WAS ALSO DEPLOYED DUE TO THE COLLISION TODAY. I NOW FEEL UNSAFE DRIVING MY HONDA CRV 2017.

AUDIO HEAD UNIT (7" LED PANEL ON EX-L) ON DASHBOARD DOES NOT DIM AT NIGHT. WHEN YOU TRY AND MOVE THE DIMMER SLIDER ON THE UNIT, IT TRIES TO DIM, THAN GOES BACK TO FULL BRIGHTNESS. THE DEALER HAS TRIED TO FIX THIS FOR OVER A YEAR, AND IT'S STILL NOT FIXED. DOING A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH SHOWS MANY OTHERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE IT'S TOO BRIGHT AT NIGHT AND AFFECTS/INTERFERES WITH NIGHT DRIVING ESPECIALLY WHEN MAKING RIGHT HAND TURNS BY CREATING A BLINDING CONDITION.

TRAVELING ON INTERSTATE AT THE SPEED LIMIT THE CAR SUDDENLY BRAKED. ALL SAFETY SYSTEMS WERE ACTIVATED AT THIS TIME. FORTUNATELY THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC IN FRONT, BEHIND OR BESIDE. I GOT THE CAR UNDER CONTROL , TURNED ALL SYSTEMS OFF AND PROCEEDED. MESSAGES ON DASH INDICATED FOUR SYSTEMS WERE INOPERATABLE. WHEN I GOT HOME I CALLED HONDA TO REPORT. THEY SUGGESTED I TAKE THE CAR TO MY DEALER. I DID SO THE FOLLOWING DAY. (THIS HAPPENED ON A WEEKEND) THEY INDICATED THERE WAS A "BULLETIN" OUT ON THIS PROBLEM. THEY DOWNLOADED NEW SOFTWARE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW MY CONCERN. BULLETINS ARE ONLY ACTED UPON WHEN AN OWNER COMPLAINS. THE ISSUE I OUTLINED ABOVE WARRANTS SURELY QUALIFIES FOR MORE THAN A BULLETIN. AT THE SAME TIME.AT THE DEALER I LEARNED OF ANOTHER PROBLEM...A RECALL FOR A GAS LINE ISSUE. SOMEONE NEEDS TO INFORM THE OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE WHEN A RECALL IS MADE. I WAS NOT INFORMED. I ACCIDENTALLY FOUND OUT ABOUT IT.AT THE DEALER , CONSUMER GIVES PERMISSION TO DISCUSS THIS MATTER WITH THE HONDA CORP *VA *JS

THE MIDDLE SEATING POSITION SEATBELT, WHICH HAS TWO BUCKLE POINTS , BUCKLES ON THE OUTSIDE PORTION OF THE FASTENER SYSTEM WHILE THE LEFT SEATING POSITION BUCKLES ON THE INSIDE OF THE FASTENER SYSTEM. IN THE EVENT OF NEED FOR RAPID EXIT, THE LEFT REAR SEAT FASTENER IS BLOCKED BY THE MIDDLE SEAT SEATBELT.
