WINDSHIELD WIPERS IN AUTO MODE OPERATE ERRATICALLY AND UNPREDICTABLY. EVEN WITH SELECTOR KNOB AT THE MOST SENSITIVE POSITION, THE WIPERS OFTEN FAIL TO OPERATE EVEN WHEN THE WINDSHIELD IS COMPLETELY COVERED WITH WATER, WITH NO OPERATION FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS OR MORE. WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITH A LIGHT RAIN, WIPERS FAIL TO RELIABLY OPERATE TO MAINTAIN CLEAR VISIBILITY EVEN WITH THE SELECTOR SET AT MAXIMUM SENSITIVITY. A COMMON SCENARIO IS DRIVING IN A STEADY RAIN WITH SOMEWHAT NORMAL (THOUGH ERRATIC) OPERATION AND THEN STOP AT A STOP LIGHT. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS NOT MOVING THE WINDSHIELD CAN BECOME TOTALLY COVERED WITH RAIN AND THE WIPERS DO NOT COME ON FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME, SERIOUSLY IMPAIRING VISIBILITY. AFTER THE DRIVER REALIZES THAT THEY CAN NO LONGER SEE CLEARLY THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD, MANUAL INTERVENTION IS NEEDED TO MOVE THE WIPER SELECTOR TO A CONTINUOUS OPERATING MODE TO CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD. VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED AT THE DEALER FOR PROPER WIPER OPERATION. UPON ARRIVAL THE SERVICE WRITER USED A HOSE TO SPRAY LARGE AMOUNTS OF WATER ON THE WINDSHIELD WITH THE WIPERS IN THE AUTO MODE AND THE VEHICLE IDLING, AND MADE SURE WATER WAS COVERING THE RAINDROP SENSOR AT THE TOP OF THE WINDSHIELD. THE SERVICE WRITER CONFIRMED A LONG REACTION TIME BEFORE THE WIPERS ENGAGED. TECHNICIANS INSPECTED THE WIPER OPERATION IN THE SHOP AND CLAIM THAT IT WORKS AS INTENDED. APPARENTLY THE WIPERS ARE EITHER FAILING TO OPERATE ACCORDING TO THE DESIGN INTENT, OR THERE IS NO MALFUNCTION AND THE DESIGN IS FLAWED. IN EITHER CASE, RELYING ON THE AUTO MODE PRESENTS AN UNSAFE CONDITION DUE TO IMPAIRED VISIBILITY.

CAR BATTERY HAS DRAINED ON TWO OCCASIONS. CAR WON'T START. SYSTEM NEEDS ANTI THEFT RESET.
Electrical system, Aug 18, 2017
MY FIRST PROBLEM OCCURRED 3 MONTHS AFTER I HAD MY NEW CAR(@ 5609 MILES)....THE FIRST INCIDENT CAME OUT OF THE BLUE - ON MAY 11TH, 2017 I USED MY CAR AT 1 PM AND WHEN I TRIED TO LEAVE WORK AT 4:30 THE CAR DISPLAY FLASHED A BUNCH OF ODD MESSAGES AND THE CAR WOULDN'T TURN OVER. IT HAD A DEAD BATTERY! SO AN ONE AND A HALF LATER THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED TO TAKE THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND I HAD TO GET A RIDE HOME AND TO AND FROM WORK THE NEXT DAY. HONDA SERVICE CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY AND SAID THAT THEY CHARGED THE CAR BATTERY AND THAT THE CAUSE WAS A PARASITIC DRAIN AND THAT I NEEDED TO PUT THE ELECTRIC BRAKE ON BEFORE I TURNED OFF THE CAR. THEY TOLD ME THAT HONDA WAS AWARE OF THIS ISSUES AND THAT THEY WERE WORKING ON A SOFTWARE FIX.... WELL TONIGHT (FRIDAY - AUG. 18TH, 2017) AS I WAS ABOUT TO GO OUT, THE CAR AGAIN HAS A DEAD BATTERY. NOW I'M STUCK HOME UNTIL TOMORROW WHEN I WILL HAVE TO SPEND SATURDAY TRYING TO GET THE CAR DRIVEABLE BY HONDA. SO I HAVE A NEW CAR (WITH 9300 MILES) I CAN'T DRIVE!!! WHAT HAPPENS IF I HAVE AN EMERGENCY? HONDA - IF YOU HAVE A FIX (WHICH I SEE ON SERVICE BULLETIN A17-032), WHEN CAN I GET MY CAR FIXED SO I CAN HAVE A CAR I CAN RELY ON? WHEN WILL YOU LIST MY VIN IN YOUR SERVICE BULLETIN A017-032 FOR PARASITIC BATTERY DRAW FROM VSA MODULATOR????? THIS IS NOT A GOOD BUSINESS PRACTICE AND NOT ONE I WOULD EXPECT FROM HONDA!

THIS INCIDENT WAS 4 MONTHS AFTWR PURCHASE. I PARKED A FRIEND'S HOUSE, AND THE BATTERY DRAINED OVER THE COURSE OF 3 HOURS. I CAME OUT AND START THE CAR, AND IT WOULDNT START. THE CAR KEEP ON MAKING THIS CONTINUOUS BEEPING NOISE EVERY TIME I OPEN AND CLOSE THE DOOR. IT USUALLY ONLY DO THAT IF THE KEY ISN'T NEAR THE CAR, BUT THIS TIME THE KEYS ARE ON ME. THE TRUNK WILL NOT OPEN NO MATTER WHAT YOU PRESS. I HAD TO GET MY FRIEND TO JUMP THE CAR WITH CABLES. WHILE I WAS DRIVING HOME, IT DIDN'T SHOW THE NORMAL SCREEN, BUT IT SHOWED SOME ANTI THEFT MESSAGE. ONCE I GOT HOME, IT TOLD ME TO HOLD DOWN FOR LONGER THAN TWO SECONDS TO HAVE THE SYSTEM RESTART. I DID THAT BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I LEFT IT OVER NIGHT AND IT WAS NORMAL AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. RIGHT NOW, AS I'M WRITING THIS COMPLAINT, THERE'S ANOTHER PROBLEM. AN HOUR AGO, I PARKED AT A RESTAURANT'S PARKING LOT. I CAME OUT 40 MINUTES LATER AND CANNOT START THR CAR. THE DISPLAY IN FRONT OF ME IS SHOWING "BRAKE SYSTEM PROBLEM. " I'M WAITING THE THE TOW PEOPLE TO TOW MY CAR RIGHT NOW. IN SIX MONTHS I HAVE EXPERIENCED 2 MAJOR PROBLEMS WHICH CAUSE QUITE AN INCONVENIENCE.

MY CAR DOES NOT GIVE ANY AUDIO ALERT WHEN I SHUT OFF THE CAR AND HAVE IT IN GEAR. MY CAR ROLLED AWAY FROM PARKING SPOT AND HIT ANOTHER CAR WHEN I WAS NOT IN IT. PER AGAIN, A TRADITIONAL KEY CANNOT BE REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION UNTIL THE VEHICLE IS IN 'PARK.' FMVSS 114 IS QUITE CLEAR ON THIS POINT: SINCE 1992, THE STANDARD HAS REQUIRED VEHICLES WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS THAT HAVE A PARK POSITION TO HAVE A KEY-LOCKING SYSTEM THAT PREVENTED REMOVAL OF THE KEY UNLESS THE TRANSMISSION WAS LOCKED IN PARK OR BECAME LOCKED IN PARK AS THE DIRECT RESULT OF REMOVING THE KEY. THIS IS A PUSH START AND IT DOES NOT BEEP OR ANYTHING LETTING ME KNOW IT IS NOT IN PARK. THE GEAR SHIFTIER DOES NOT SHOW WHAT GEAR IT IS IN. NHTSA IS PURPORTING TO ADDRESS THESE PROBLEMS WITH A NOTICE OF PROPOSED RULEMAKING, PUBLISHED IN DECEMBER 2011, WITH A NEW RELIANCE ON AUDIBLE WARNINGS, BASED ON THOSE ALREADY REQUIRED IN FMVSS 403 (WHEELCHAIR LIFTS). THE AGENCY OFFERED NO HUMAN FACTORS RESEARCH TO DEMONSTRATE THAT THESE WARNINGS WOULD BE EFFECTIVE. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHAT HAPPEN IN THE DECEMBER 2011 REGARDING CARS HAVING THE AUDIO ABLE WARNING TO LET DRIVERS KNOW. I AM HAPPY THAT NO ONE WAS HURT ONLY MY CAR AND THE OTHER CAR BUT THIS COULD OF KILLED SOMEONE WALKING BY AND THAT IS WHY THE WAS WAS PUT IN PLACE. HONDA SAYS IT PUTS A MESSAGE ON THE SCREEN WHEN YOU SHUT IT OFF, DID NOT SEE THAT MESSAGE AS I WAS EXITING THE CAR THAT IS WHY THERE SHOULD BE A AUDIO SOUND.

BRAND NEW 2017 CR-V TOURING, SECOND NIGHT HOME. BATTERY COMPLETELY DRAINED WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT AND HAD TO CHARGE BATTERY TO START. TOOK TO DEALER, WHO DID A BATTERY TEST AND FOUND NO ISSUE. THERE IS A HONDA TSB CAMPAIGN, BUT HONDA TELLS ME MY VIN IS OUT OF RANGE AND IS NOT COVERED -- EVEN THOUGH THE SYMPTOMS ARE IDENTICAL. THEY WILL NOT OFFER SERVICE UNTIL THE VIN IS WITHIN RANGE. REFERENCE HONDA TSB-032 "PARASITIC BATTERY DRAW FROM VSA MODULATOR" HONDA AMERICA SUPPORT SUGGESTED I REPORT THIS TO NHTSA, FOR SOME REASON. STATED THAT IF THEY RECEIVE ENOUGH COMPLAINTS FOR A VIN RANGE IT COULD BE EXPANDED. (THIS MAKES NO SENSE TO ME SINCE I WAS ON THE PHONE WITH THEM.)

BOUGHT A 2017 HONDA CRV THIS MARCH. DROVE FINE FOR 3 MONTHS & 3K MILES. ON 6/7/17 THE REAR WINDSHIELD EXPLODED. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY AT MY WORK PLACE. IT WAS A HOT 92 DEGREE DAY. A COWORKER DROVE BY & HEARD A LOUD POP & SHE NOTICE MY DAMAGED WINDOW & CANE TO NOTIFY ME ASAP. THE GLASS CLEARLY EXPLODED BECAUSE ALL INDICATIONS OF THE BULGING OF GLASS HAS PUFFED OUTWARD FROM MY CAR. THERE'S A HUGE 1 FOOT WIDE HOLE IN THE CENTER LEFT, IT LOOKS LIKE WHEN A CHICK IS HATCHING FROM ITS EGG. THERE'S ONLY 2 CHUNKS OF GLASS BROKEN FROM THE HOLE, ONE INTO CAR, THE OTHER RESTED OUTSIDE THE HOLE ON THE WIPER. IF ANYTHING HITS IT, THE GLASS WOULD OF SHATTERED IN THE CENTER & THE WOULD SHOWS WHITE BIG STRESS-MARKS EXPANDING FROM THE HOLE. YET NONE. MY WHOLE WINDOW SHATTERED STARTING FROM BOTH ENDS OF THE REAR WINDSHIELD, DISCONNECTING THE WHOLE GLASS FROM THE CAR. I WORK AS A QA MEMBER & WE SUPPLY PARTS FOR HONDA. I MEASURE MANY OF THE PARTS WE SUPPLIED. SO I'M NOT STUPID TO MENTION TO HONDA MY GLASS EXPLODED. I DID MY RESEARCH & CAME ACROSS MANY OF THESE PROBLEMS, EVEN SOME WERE REPORTED HERE IN THIS FORUM. I TOOK GREAT PIC & VIDEOS OF THE INCIDENT & SHOWED BOTH MY DEALERSHIP & HONDA CORPORATE & EXPRESSED GREATLY THAT THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN. PERHAPS A BAD DEFECT LIKE A BAD DEFROSTING UNIT WHERE IT FAILS TO SHUT OFF AFTER ENGINE SHUTS OFF OR BASICALLY DEFECT WITHIN THE GLASS DURING MANUFACTURING PROCESS WITH NICKEL SULFIDE IN GLASS. HONDA DOES NOT COVER GLASS UNDER THEIR WARRANTIES SO AS SOON AS I MENTION BROKEN GLASS, THEY DIVERT AROUND MY QUESTIONS OR GIVES OTHER POSSIBLE CAUSES. I'M A QA MEMBER WHO MAKES & MEASURE PARTS FOR THEM I'M NOT THAT DUMB. YET HONDA WILL NOT INVESTIGATE THIS WHEN IT CLEARLY CONCERN CUSTONER'S SAFETY, MINE TO BE EXACT. NOW I HAVE TO SPENT $500 TO FIX IT & I FELT HONDA COULD OF LOOK INTO THIS, PHYSICALLY. THERE CLEARLY IS A DEFECTED FACTOR SOMEWHERE.

FREQUENT NOXIOUS GAS FUMES IN THE CABIN OF THE VEHICLE. OFTEN WHEN THE VEHICLE IS SITTING IDLE, OR STARTING, THERE IS A STRONG SMELL OF GAS IN THE CABIN. THIS ISSUE BEGAN A COUPLE WEEKS AFTER PURCHASING THE VEHICLE (FEBRUARY 3) AND HAS HAPPENED MOST RECENTLY ON MAY 28. THE INCIDENT ON MAY 28 WAS SO TOXIC THAT I DEVELOPED A HEADACHE AND HAD TO OPEN ALL WINDOWS TO TRY TO RELIEVE THE ISSUE.
