Problems with 2014 Honda CR-V ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

While it is stationary, the tailgate cannot be open externally when in cold temperature like 35 degrees. there is no way to open it inside and thus no way to escape through the tailgate from inside. not safe. here are links for complaints. it happens to 2012 to 2016 and even 2019 on hrv models. after reading complaints, the only solution is a replacement of the switch. they said it stopped working again even after replacing it. i don't want to spend money for diagnositics and repairs until it works for good. the problem has been getting worse for the last five years. https://www.cargurus.com/cars/discussion-t45488_ds632303 https://www.carcomplaints.com/honda/cr-v/2014/body_paint/tailgate_not_working_properly.shtml http://www.city-data.com/forum/honda-acura/2282486-2013-honda-cr-v-tailgate-wont.html

2014 honda crv. consumer writes in regard to a software issue bulletin 15-086 with vehicle that causes a surge, vibration or judder felt while driving under light acceleration. *as *js

My vehicle was stalled in the early morning of july 17, 2019 in a parking lot and towed to a honda dealership nearby. the mechanic's diagnosis was that the vehicle stall was caused by the shortage of all fuses in the primary fuse box due to leaking oil from the timing chain cover of the engine. the mechanic mentioned that the oil leak occurred for a while so it shorted out the fuses through the incased electrical wires. i think that it definitely is a safety issue because my life could be in a danger if the shortage occurred when i drove this vehicle on the highway. therefore, i wanted your agency to raise this safety issue related to honda crv to honda manufacturer and consumers who are currently driving a similar type of the vehicle. i am currently cooperating with a representative from honda customer service for an investigation of this serious safety issue. sincerely, (xxxx) p.s. attachment is the repairing statement from curry dealership. redacted to protect personally identifiable information pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). the consumer stated ...

I had my tires rotated and car serviced on 6/21/19 and on 6/22/19 my tire pressure light came on after driving only 2 miles on the interstate. i pulled over and checked my tires and all were at 40lbs. i reset the tire pressure censure, and a few days later i was yet again driving on the highway and the light came on again. i check my pressure again and all were 40lbs. before my tires were rotated my light never came on, and now it comes on at least 2-3 times a week. not sure if it is the sensor that has gone bad or if there is something wrong with how the tires are rotating. my car has 34,500 miles on it. check tire light only comes on while driving straight; no pot holes were hit and the roads were not uneven.

My 2014 cr-v ex-l began to give me starting problems since late 2016. it occurs randomly, and can occur either in morning or daytime. the first time it occurred and i took it to honda dealership they blamed it on some charging software issue and said they fixed it by installing a software update. it worked fine for a few weeks after but the problem reoccurred later. it can happen in summer or winter, and totally randomly. honda dealer service assured me multiple times they can't find any problem with battery or electrical system. at this point i am totally at loss about what to do. i can get a new battery, but what am i going to do if the same problem occurs again. i can never predict when or how it will show up. it can start without any problems even on a really cold day, or it would not start after i make a 20 minute stop at the grocery store. never expected this when i bought a honda.

The passenger door will no open from the outside or inside when the door is unlocked. being parked at home, i went to open the door from the outside and was unsuccessful. dealership says the door actuator is out and they see this on honda's very frequently. i consider this a major safety feature and feel it should have already been recalled if it has been known. apparently this is not uncommon for honda's and they have had a recall on this in prior year models.
