Problems with 2002 Honda CR-V ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Smoke started arising from the steering column while driving on a city street during the daytime. driver was not using lights at the time and was using normal occasional turn signals for a urban metropolitan area. the turn signal was evaluated and showed melting of the turn signal switch and the terminal harness. this is similar to what is described in nhtsa 12v-136 or 12v-486. honda america and honda dealerships said the 2002 honda cr-v was not included, because vin was not included in the recall. however, the model and year of the car were included and having the same problems described as previously mentioned recalls.

Driver's window works, but passenger and back seat windows wont work. i'm seeing many other people with hondas have the same problem! also, the windshield washer won't work.

The passenger side power window switch smoked and stopped working. there was a recall for this and i would like to know if the repair would be covered. the passenger window side is the only one affected.

Drivers side seat belt will not always click into lock. drivers side seat is very loose. malfunction light will not turn off.

I had parked my car outside grocery store and went shopping. when came back i can smell something burning. by looking around, i found smoke coming out from power window switch panel on driver side. i haven't even inserted my keys. after that i lost the ability to turn up down passenger side window. searching online shows 2002cr-v had the recall for same problem but my car wasn't included. contacting honda and dealer says my car doesn't carry the faulty part but yet same thing happened to my car. i am scared if it's parked in garage and fire may start. vehicle was not moving and no keys were in ignition. it was a scary situation.

This is for my honda crv 2002, we have enough trouble for this car from airbag to power windows and now is the ignition key thats losing contact, the car wont start after 5 or 6 times of trying to turn the key to start mode. i searched online and found that this is a known problem for this car. i called honda and they said that they're not aware of this issue. im writing this email to get some help from you to address this issue. i dont know why honda always play this game of not helping out the consumers right away, they always wait until someone gets hurt or die before they act on this kind of issue. this ignition switch is very dangerous, what if my car stall in the middle of the freeway? this is very very dangerous and scary... thanks for your help

While driving, i felt excessive smoke and heat coming from the power window master switch. i immediately took it to a mechanic and he told me that for some reason excessive heat was generated in the switch and this could have potentially melted the switch or could have caused a fire. i discovered honda crv year 2002-2006 have a "nhtsa campaign number: 12v486 , honda's campaign id: s61" for recall on power window master switch. but my specific vin number isn't covered under it. i contacted honda "product concerns" department as i experienced exactly the same what the nhtsa campaign number: 12v486000 is covering. i wanted honda to acknowledge my issue and initiate an engineering analysis for my vin# and provide me with their findings. but they told me they can register my complaint (#n012015-03-1601127) but they won't do anything as mine isn't identified in affected vehicles under campaign id 12v468. the regional manager of product concerns also told me that they don't know if any past work was done on my vehicle that caused this. i am the owner of this vehicle since march 2008 and did not get any work done on master switch and it worked ...
