Problems with 2006 Honda CR-V EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Problem: headlight bulb blowout at any time; driving or stationary. the headlights on this vehicle according to honda are designed to run off the battery, not the alternator. if the battery voltage drops significantly, the car is designed to push the battery voltage back up. this causes voltage spikes that blow out the headlight bulbs. this is described online at www.carcomplaints.com. for example: cr-v176,000 miles passenger side low beam does not function... have replaced bulb every few months for the past several years, but this time (since feb. 2019) there is no recovery. i have replaced the bulb, socket and connector, checked fuses...hi beam and parking/signal bulbs all fully functional, but no low beam on passenger side. this is a dangerous and well known defect that a recall was issued for in the 2005 models. honda, in certain model years, of which 2006 is one, has so far refused to offer remedy. there are more than enough instances of this unique hazard to justify a recall, and one is long overdue.- stockton, ca, usa takata recall low beam headlight stops working headlight bulbs continue to blow. then can blow after a ...

Headlights go out every 2-3 months so constantly changing bulbs. very inconvenient and dangerous.

This car failed the va state inspection due to recalls. car is now undriveable can not accelerate.

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 honda cr-v. while driving varoius speeds, the headlights failed to illuminate without warning. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the spark plugs needed to be replaced. the headlights were replaced, but the failure recurred every three weeks. the dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 125,000. the vin was unknown.

The low beam headlights have stopped working over six (6) times in two plus (2+) years (car purchased used, 11/2015). spent a couple hundred dollars on replacement bulbs; replaced the housing unit to see if that corrected the issue and it worked for a few months; finally in april 2018 went to hall honda (virginia beach, va) to diagnose the issue. they just said the bulb was bad and replaced it. i drive with lights on during the day and yesterday (7/20/2018) i noticed that my lights weren't reflecting on the cars in front of me while driving. once parked, i checked and low beams not operational, but high beams work. this morning i called hall honda and have an appointment to go in today (7/21/2018) at 1:45 pm. i have printed out info from online complaints about this same issue. there was a recall, but it only went to the car year 2005. this is an obvious safety issue since headlights are needed when driving in rain (it is the law here in va) or when it is dusk/dark. listing yesterday as the date this happened, although it happened first to me february 2016. i also checked off the ...

The headlights went out the day i bought my vehice and have read that this is a major issue that has been recalled for previous years but not this one. many vehicle owners complain of replacing their bulbs every month or two and some have said that both have gone out on them during a long road trip. this is a major safety issue! please address this! i really don't feel safe driving far distances and at night.

Vehicle was purchased used in may 2018. the driver's side headlight has burned out every 4-7 weeks since. no solutions from two different honda mechanics. have read many similar accounts. have tried h1 bulbs from different manufacturers, battery was checked for power surges, no moisture, no reported accidents, rubber boots in place, didn't touch the bulbs, replaced the 'socket' with oem part, etc. no one has a solution. about 130,000 miles when first took place during my time so far. seems to go out when driving. bulb has slight burn mark on it after going out.

The drivers side low beam bulb fails after less than 2 months of replacement recurring issue. i have installed 2 different manufactures bulbs plus one oem bulb with same failure occurring in 3 months or less and less than 2k miles. bulb has failed both in motion and stationary mode.

Over the last 12-16 months, the low-beam bulb for the headlights have failed approximately every 1-2 months. when attempting to research this issue on the internet, it appears that this is a common problem across multiple years of this make and model vehicle. in fact, it appears that they had issued recalls on an earlier model year of this vehicle but have resisted recalling additional model years. i have not yet determined the cause of this problem on my vehicle. the passenger low-beam bulb seems to have been effected more than the driver side. i have been trying to track the timing of the bulb failures, and i believe that it may be related to long distance trips of over 100 miles. i have an appointment to have an automotive electrical company look at it and try to trace the fault.

I have a 2006 honda crv se that the low beam headlights keep going out on. i took it to the dealer to be fixed, and they said it was a exposed wire going to the fuse box. i continue to have the problem though. my drivers side went out a month ago again, and then came back on for a week. then the drivers side lights went out again. i went to leave work last nigh, and now both low beams are not working. i have contacted the recall department, and they tell me i have no open recalls on my car. i paid $400 less than 8 months ago to fix this, and now i have a worse problem. the dealer says i'm past my warranty on the repair, so i will have to pay to have them look at it to see what the issue is. i am also having an issue with all lights inside and out strobing and pulsing. i have read many people having this. this is a huge safety concern, and my next step is to call the nhtsa to report the problem. i am urging anyone having issues to call the ...

Tl* the contact owns a 2006 honda cr-v. while driving, the low beam headlamps failed to operate without warning. the contact stated that the bulbs were previously replaced prior to the failure. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the contact stated that the failure recurred several times. the manufacturer was not notified of the failure. the approximate failure mileage was 115,000. the vin was not available.

We stopped at a gas station on a long trip and when we got back in car headlights went out and even with new bulbs are very dim. have to drive with high beams to see to drive. very unsafe.

Low beam headlight stops working. needs replacing on a regular basis. every month or two.
