Problems with 2017 Honda CR-V POWER TRAIN

On average, the 2017 Honda CR-V starts to “feel” problems with the POWER TRAIN and its various aspects after 26 354 miles.

Recently reported POWER TRAIN problems on 2017 Honda CR-V

Shift button popped out of shift handle causing car to not be able to shift into different gears. this occurred while the car was in motion in a parking lot.

Shifter knob broke and fell off gear shifter while in motion upon further investigation i found that honda had issued a service bulletin 19-063 describing the same exact issue as had happened to our vehicle and it referenced nhtsa #10160912 but the service bulletin is vin specific and honda is stating that our vehicle is not covered for repair under this service bulletin. i am questioning them further but it is the same problem as described in the bulletin so maybe the recall/product update needs to be looked at further so that in the future drivers don't experience the shifter knob falling off the gear selector while in motion.

While driving down the hwy at 65 mph the button in the gear shift popped out. it is a piece of plastic and it broke inside the gear handle. i drove home but without this button inserted i am not able to shift to park, reverse, drive. i took it to the westhills honda dealer for repair. i was told there was a recall on this same issue but not for this vin. to me this is a very serious concern.

Shift knob button broke during operation resulting in loss of use of vehicle. battery has been replaced 2 times on vehicle.

The the gearshift button has broken. we have friends with the same exact year make model that did the same exact thing.

Gear shift button popped out while driving: i was driving with my children in the car, the button popped out as i was trying to drop them off at school. this could have been a truly deadly situation in a crowded drop off because the car would not go to park. thankfully i quickly recovered from shock, hit the brakes and scrambled to grab the piece that had fallen to the floor of the car. the button piece looks cheap, so now the coil is exposed. i can't just stick my finger in so i am going to need to tape the button back on until i get it fixed. this is an obvious recall issue since so many people have mentioned it. i wouldn't have reported it if i didn't see so many online complaints.

When driving on a local road from school, my son pressed the accelerator after a stop light. our 2017 honda crv didn't move an inch. thankfully, it was not a highway and the cars behind him were not coming at high speed. we had the car towed to the dealer and it turned out that the transmission was gone and it had to be replaced. we were quite upset that only a two year old car can have this problem and wanted to report the incident,

Gear shift knob snapped off making it impossible to shift into or out of park or reverse. this car is just over 2 years old with 16,000 miles. fortunately for me, the car was stationary when it happened - i had just started it to pull out of a parking space while on vacation.

Stopped vehicle to park and was unable to move shift lever to park. the push button on the shift lever had broken. the vehicle could be turned off, but it could not be started without the shift lever moving to park. this problem has been reported by many, many users!

Button on shifter knob has broken off at approximately 37,000 miles. cannot shift car out of park.

While driving the shift lever push knob button which allows you to shift gears fell out. upon researching this issue on line, apparently it is a well known issue with 2017 and 2018 honda cr-vs. the plastic button breaks inside the shift lever with part falling out and the other portion remaining inside the shift lever. when i returned the vehicle to a honda dealer, they were well aware of this issue and replaced it under warranty. this item should be the subject of a mandatory recall as it poses a hazard when one can't shift the car out of drive etc. i was told at the dealer that it is only replaced if already broken.

Shift knob button broke off while placing the car in drive from park - now i am unable to shift car to park or any other gear. this car only has 19k miles on it and a year and a 1/2 old. there are many reports of this same problem on the internet and on youtube - i have never in all of my years driving had a similar issue with a shift button.

Car would not go into "park" after trying. the gear shift would not go past neutral. the vehicle was stopped and sitting in a parking spot. fortunately the dealer was close after attempting to shift numerous times was able to move. took my cr-v to the dealer and they replaced the spring and the knob you press to change gears. they said this was covered by warranty. they had the knob and spring readily available which tells me they know about this issue.

Push button on transmission shift lever broke and fell completely out. transmission lever could not be moved. vehicle was stationary, running and could not be turned off.

The push button on the gear shift sprung out of the "t" gear shift handle after i placed the car in reverse. i was had not left my driveway when i discovered the unusual object in the tray between the seats and quickly realized what it was. the broken plastic retaining clip and a spring were also laying on a receipt in the tray.i was able to place the button back into the shifter and go to work. i have read online that other 2017 cr vs have this issue and one of the honda blogs said this might become a recall. i hope so, as my 25 month out car has 36,000 + miles and is out of warranty.
