Problems with 2005 Honda CR-V ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Headlight recall. i am aware that there have been some headlight recalls on previous year models of honda crv. i have a 2005. the front headlights burn out and/or fail very frequently. i have owned the crv for maybe 5 years and have had to replace the bulbs 4 to 5 times. now the right headlamp will not work even with a brand new bulb. this seems to be an electrical problem. the headlights could fail while driving at night. please look into it. the date entered below is just the most recent failure.

The low beam headlights have failed while the high beams continue to work. this same failure in other honda models merited a safety recall. please see honda service bulletins 12-056 and 04-15. the 2005 cr-v has the same part, failure, and repair procedure for the light switch wire harness located in the steering column. i feel a safety recall should apply to my vehicle, since it is the same failure, same part to replace and same danger. this is a widely reported issue on the honda service boards.

Electrical fire in engine compartment, wiring harness melted and caught fire, battery melted. driving about 35mph, started to smell smoke and the vehicle engine cut out. rolled to the side of the road, called for help and noticed the smoke getting worse and then seen the flames. extinguished the fire with the help of bystanders and residents living near by

My headlight bulbs burn-out after only 4-6 weeks. this has been happening for about 3 years. the short-bulb-life event occurs about 70% on the driver side, and about 30% on the passenger side. there is no sign of moisture entering the bulb/light area. this is a constant safety issue for me since the problem means i am often driving with only one headlight. this problem is also very expensive-- approximately 12-15 new bulbs per year ! the bulbs burn out when driving on roads of all types. on this form below, where "when did this happen?" is requested, i have entered the date of the most recent occurrence (bulb burned out after only 5 weeks of life) although as stated above,this event has been happening regularly for the past 3 years.

Driving down the road, the driver side headlight went out, this is my second replacement in 3 weeks. don't know if the left one will go out too but i live in a woodsy area and am terrified that as i am driving down the winding road i will be left without lights. i carry a flashlight with me now. it's mandatory. honda please issue recalls for the faulty headlights.

The rear door light warning go off and on all the time and the rear door hinges are wearing out a lot.. i feel the rear door everytime i hit a pothole is move

Tl* the contact owns a 2005 honda cr-v. while driving approximately 50 mph, the vehicle suddenly shut off. the cause of the failure was not diagnosed. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer and local dealer were not notified of the failure. the failure mileage was 202,000.

Low beam headlights ever since we purchased the car, we've had to replace the low beam bulbs every few weeks. they burn out at completely random times (its happened both while in motion and stationary, in residential areas as well as out driving through countryside, freeways; basically everywhere). not only is this an inconvenience due to the amount of money spent on replacements, it's also extremely dangerous. they've burned out on night drives in the countryside where our only option was to use high beams the rest of the way, etc. unacceptable that honda has not yet acknowledged the issue, even though it's very well documented online as being an issue. there was a recall for this issue up through 2004 cr-v's but they've not extended to the 05 model year.

The master switch for the power windows intermittently does not work - whether the vehicle is stationary or in motion. i have now had it disconnected because the same switch in other honda c-rvs 2002-2006 has caused melting of the switch and even fires. my vin is not part of the current recall (nhtsa recall number: 12v-486) for this switch defect but i wonder if it should be? i have reported this issue to honda and it has been recorded as case # 05298119.

Takata recall- my window will not go up/down on the driver side (front). i was told that maybe a switching problem or the motor needs to replaced. the car was stationary for about 3 months.
