Intermittently the "safety system" items stop working- adaptive cruise, lane assist, etc. this happens even when there is no rain/ fog/ physical obstruction, etc. after few hours it starts working. happens every few weeks.
I own a 2018 crv purchased new in august 2018. while sitting at a stop light on a slightly drizzly, approximately 45-ish degree morning this week, i heard a loud bang/explosion followed by a slight crackling noise right over my head. i immediately pulled my sunroof shade shut and when i arrived at work (about a 1/2 mile down the road), i discovered that my sunroof had completely shattered. because i pulled the shade closed, the glass did not fall in to the vehicle so there was no injury sustained. my route is one i do daily and does not include an overpass or overhangs. there was no indication that anything had been thrown/fallen on my roof. there is no other damage to the body/roof. i believe the sunroof spontaneously shattered. when i spoke with my honda dealer's service department, they transferred me to an outside body shop to repair out of pocket. when i spoke to the dealer's finance office about my warranty, they informed me that no glass repair is covered under my warranty or extended warranty and that i needed to submit under my comprehensive car insurance. my insurance did ultimately cover the damage although they were reluctant as they felt it was a manufacturers defect.
Our sunroof glass exploded outwards while driving on a clear expressway. we had been traveling for about 4 hrs, and the sunroof glass bubbled outwards and exploded in many many small fragments. there was no impact with an outside object and the glass was clearly blown outward. we suspect the heat buildup between the glass and the moon pressurized the air and the glass failed, exploding.
I was driving on the highway, approximately 65 mph, travelling straight east with no turns. traffic was moderate, time was 5:40 pm. for no apparent reason, my moonroof exploded, i was very startled and swerved barely missing the car beside me. the sunscreen was closed, and i was not injured, but shattered glass would have rained on the car behind me. incident occurred on 11/01/2019
The gear shift button on my 2018 crv broke off as i was shifting from drive to park. i was parked at the time, however, once it falls out the only way to shift gears again is to shove it back in place. it dangles and doesn't stay situated in the gear shift and sometimes doesn't go back in easily. this is unsafe and needs to be recalled with a better solution than replacing the button with the same button.
On 9/23/19 parked the vehicle. shut off vehicle while still in drive. the vehicle did not alert me that the car was not in park. got out of car and door locked like everything was okay - no other beeps or notifications. vehicle rolled out of driveway and hit a tree causing significant rear damage (thankfully did not hit any other vehicle or pedestrian). brought to honda dealership and they could not find anything although i explained that the warning indicators work intermittently. finally on 10/2/19 i videotaped an incident where it did not alert me in anyway when i shut the car off and left in the drive gear (images from video attached). honda states emergency parking brake should always be engaged; however, this does not fix the fact that the safety notifications are not working as expected. definitely a vehicle safety issue.
I was travelling approximately 50 mph on local highway. no cars directly in front of me for a 1/4 mile. it had rained overnight and the road conditions were slightly damp but no puddles. i was crossing through an intersection and the car's 'brake' alarm (forward collision system) falsely triggered on the dashboard and instantly slammed on my brakes and brought my 2018 crv to a dead stop. my cargo went flying forward and my head jerked forward hard. i was wearing my seat belt. no car was immediately behind me otherwise they would have for sure crashed into my car. i contacted my local honda dealer and brought the vehicle in that afternoon. they said they would run diagnostics on it. they called me back the next day and said that there "were no trouble codes stored in the vehicle". they said they "contacted honda and there were 'no known issues' and there was nothing else they could do for me". they suggested i turn off the forward collision system if i was concerned. this is crazy and hazardous. the vehicle should not put me (and others) in danger like this. thank god my wife and kids were not in the vehicle when this happened. thank god no one was behind me. i pray they aren't when this happens again. there needs to be some sort of recall or warning regarding this.
During interstate driving using the adaptive cruise control, the vehicle warning lights for the adaptive cruise control, lane keep assist system, braking warning indicators illuminated and the adaptive cruise control stopped working causing the vehicle to decelerate.
When driving, the collision mitigation system (auto braking) will slam on the brakes when there is no threat. i may be cruising down the highway with no vehicles around and suddenly the car is braking hard.
Warning lights flashing then had software update ac control all that was on the bulletin , lights flashing again warning lights so at 38,000 had to have fuel injectors, one warning light came on since then after cutting car off hasn't come back on yet both stationary, and in motion .
Raw fuel smell inside cabin and outside of vehicle . engine oil diluted and oil level increased . fuel mixed in with oil .
I was driving from virginia beach, va to midlothian, va on state 288 north (wwii veterans memorial highway traveling at approximately 50-60 mph far left lane. i was using cruise control. suddenly smoke started to appear from what i thought was another vehicle however, i quickly realized it was from my vehicle what appeared from under my hood. i immediately slowed down, put on my hazards and moved to the far-right shoulder just short of mile marker 10. i was traveling with a coworker and we both existed the vehicle and white smoke immediately started to fill the interior from the smoke under the hood. we closed both door and started to move away from the front of the vehicle along the shoulder. we both knelt down to see what appeared to be fire dripping from the underside to the asphalt. at this point in time we started to see flames come out from under the hood and begin to engulf the care in less than 10 min. i immediately called 911 from my coworkers' phone because left mine in the vehicle and dared not to reenter it. a passerby who happened to be a volunteer fireman stopped and attempted to use his vehicles fire extinguisher to put out the flame but it was too large a fire. the state troopers arrived in about 10 min then the fire trucks arrived about 10 min after. by then the entire care was in dark black smoke with flames all around it. we heard several explosions which the firefighters said were my tires and air bag deployment canisters. the firefighters put out the fire with a foam agent and proceeded to check for remaining heat. no indicators were illuminated prior to us stopping due to seeing the smoke. this vehicle is serviced at the normal intervals by priority honda in chesapeake, va where it was purchased and i've no issues prior to this incident.
At random times while driving the infotainment screen randomly starts flashing and beeping. with the brightness control bar popping up at the bottom of the screen. this is very distracting to the driver while operating the vehicle. this has happened three time while the vehicle was in motion on at highway speeds and while driving in traffic. the only way to stop this is to turn the car off. this is a big saftey issue for safe operation of the vehicle and it will cause an accident for someone. it seems to happen randomly i belive it may happen when the navigation system is activated and the car has an android phone attached however i am unable to replicate it. it has happened 4 times. my vehicle has 8000 miles on it. additionally there are report on the internet that this has happend to other drivers as well. i reported this by telephone to customer service at honda as well 0n 05/30/2019 . i also had an issue that onetime this winter i started the car and the sunroof automatically opened and could not be closed for about 1 hour. luckily it was not raining or snowing that day. there seems to be a number of issues with the electronic control system on this vehicle.
Rear passenger side door window glass shattered while driving on the highway. i heard a loud pop before the glass shattered. there were no vehicles to the right of or in front of my car when it happened, since i was in the right-most lane of traffic. therefore, the glass could not have been shattered by debris.
Honda sensing auto braking did an emergency stop for no reason. it happen twice on the same location. the car miss interpreted rectangular concrete patch on black asphalt as a hazard. it happen twice in the same location one month apart, each time i came from a different direction. speed was low, about 15 miles/h. it was in a very big parking lot driving straight.
Accident avoidance system engaged for no reason, locking the brakes momentarily while driving at 40 mph. may 5, 2019, clear day, 4:30p, heading east (sun behind), nothing in front of the vehicle and traffic far behind. five lane road - two lanes each direction and a middle turn lane -- and straight in this area. turned right onto the road from an intersection and got up to speed. the warning sound from the accident avoidance system beeped three times while the brakes were harshly applied causing light skidding in dry conditions. then the brakes were just as suddenly released. happened very quickly and would have caused an accident if i was in traffic. my foot was still on the gas pedal and the braking force made me push the pedal more. extremely unsafe incident. vehicle had about 3,710 miles, 2018 cr-v ex 1.5 turbo awd with cvt.
My car has the oil dilution issue. have had the oil changed 2 times with less than 7000 miles on car. dealer cannot fix yet because they are not authorized.
Lane departure and collision control often engage without cause. twice i have been driving and the lane departure sensors go off and vehicle automatically brakes for no obvious reason. it appears that it may be falsely reading shadows or wet roadways. one incident was on a city street at about 40 mph. the other was on the interstate at around 70 mph.
I was driving to get license renewed when my car lost power and began to coast. the engine was on and i had to gun it to pick up speed. i turned around and headed for the honda dealership. upon getting there all systems were lit up maintenance wise and smoke was coming out of the underside where the brakes are. the service advisor said when she went around the car that it was so hot it would have burned her. service tech said left front brakes extremly heated and smoke coming from the area. found brakes have gotten hot. cleared code present c0040-12. brake switch stuck on. i advised never used hold brake unless i was sitting on steep hill. tech unable to make vehicle do what it was doing to me but, the minute i got it out on the highway, it started doing the same thing. tech advised brake pads ok and rotors have some heat spots in them but ok. they went ahead and changed the oil!!!!
The rear center and rear left passenger seatbelt latch requires for the two seatbelts to be entangled together to be latched. it is clearly a safety issue as they cannot be used in tandem, which means that only two occupants can be safely transported in the rear.
Cmbs faulty. it thinks there is n object on an empty road and hard brakes it's very hazardous to drive you never know when it's gonna happen dealer can't find the isssue
Driving vehicle home from work, on interstate highway at 65 mph speed limit. suddenly heard a loud sound in direction above my head. i glanced up and found the sunroof glass above my head to be shattered and the wind created by driving at that speed took some of the glass off and i believe showered the roadway behind me. i now have a large hole in the sunroof glass and what glass remains is completely shattered. what caused the glass to shatter is unknown at this time.
My 2018 honda cr-v is have a problem with overfilled oil levels with a gas mixed with engine oil and gas smell, this is due to gas leak into oil reservoirs. this is a cause for concern of longevity of the engine and health risk cause from gas smell in the cabin of vehicle. nhtsa to required honda to recall this vehicle to get it fix . my vehicle only have 6100 miles on it.
On many occasions my crv auto brakes hard and lane keep follows the wrong lines. 2 examples of braking: 1 - a pickup truck was making a right hand turn in front on me. as a human i started to go around him to the left as he turned but my auto brakes locked up and the person behind me came within inches from rear ending me then got road rage and chased me for something i did not do! could have been killed! 2nd was on a bend in the road - a white moving truck coming the other way on the bend made my auto brakes lock up hard / near a full stop! this happens often but not usually to these extremes. lane keep - while on a major highway with cruise and lk on i went thru a recent construction area and my honda started to follow old lines and painted over w/ black paint lines - not the new lines from after the repairs! it was scary - almost drove me into a barrier! on 1200 mile trip to florida my car often would hit the brakes for reasons i could not tell or go out of the normal road lines or the acc would slow the car to a crawl for trucks in the other lane. took it to the dealer - they say npf. one guy did say to adjust the sensitivity which i did but it still brakes when it should not. my wifes car does not react this way.
Oil dilution problem - i smell gas from exhaust, oil dip stick , cabin and when i opened the oil cap , also vehicle is not maintaining the proper temperature while driving with the heat on. this maybe be potentially dangerous to occupants as well as vehicle and engine.
After having a mandatory update done by honda january 3 2019 i no longer have heat in my vehicle when its below freezing. my windows cannot stay defrosted or safe to see out of. i have to keep pulling over to scrape windows during storms. also february 14 i noticed my engine rapping badly. i had it towed to the honda dealer. my engine oil was 1 inch over the high fill line. honda corporate told the dealership to tell me that it's 100% normal and fine, and oil dilution is normal and fine. my engine is rapping badly, i have had coworkers who are ase certified look at the vehicle and they said that's engine damage and the engine will fail and probably soon. my oil was last changed 1600 miles ago, and in that time it got 1 inch over filled, gasoline is in my oil now. honda denies the heat and the oil dilution. you must intervene and help honda crv customers! there are thousands of u s experiencing this and honda refuses to help!! please help! i have a video of my engine rapping, compared it to other honda crv's and mine is definitely got something wrong!
Car temperature gauge was not heating up properly. in cold weather when ideling would not move from cold position, therefore produce no heat. when driving it at 35miles an hour gauge would go up some ,and when slowing to 25 miles gauge would drop back down to cold, with no heat. car would also stall after it was started and left in park when i would get in to put it in drive. this would all happen during cold weather. honda did the recall because they found the gas and oil mixture problem. did an oil change and did the recall update on control panel and software.got the car back and it is still having the same problem with the temperature gauge dropping down to cold and loss of heat,when driving short trips. honda said they could not figure out how to fix it.
Driving in winter conditions. car lost power. engine light came on. was able to coast about a quarter mile to a safe place on the side of the road. by the time i parked the car smoke was coming out of the front and back of the vehicle. there was a strong smell like something burning. when i restarted the car to get heat while waiting for roadside assistance the dash lights were flashing and multiple system failure messages. car unable to drive over bout 5 miles per hour. had to tow to dealership.
Contacted honda regarding brand new 2018 honda crv voyager regarding oil dilution. the company says that the gas smell on the vehicles oil dip stick is "normal." they also stated that if the oil level is too high an interior light or engine noise would indicate an issue. meaning that the oil level is arbitrary.
Sometimes would need repeated attempt to start. vehicle stalled, most often while moving slowly, but once while driving between 30 & 40 mph. no codes showed according to clawsen honda. honda performed an software update for pcm & tcm (1/18/19). vehicle stalled once since service 10 days later. 1st incident at 72mi odom
I purchased this car june 2018. it was perfect. everything worked flawlessly. then january 3 i had a tsb performed on the car, now my mpg's have dropped by 10mpg. and i had no issue with heat before, and now i do. start the car, within 2 miles i have heat. 20 minutes into my journey, the center vents on the dash start blowing cold air. does not matter how much i turn up the heat dial, it continues to blow cold air from the center vents from that point in the trip forward. it's been taken to the dealership who called honda tech line and honda tech line claims this is normal. it is not normal and the car was not doing that prior this tsb being done on my car. even the dealership agrees with me it's not normal and something is wrong, but tech line told them to tell me nothing is wrong. this is wildly unacceptable and you need to step in. i am not the only one that honda is doing this to! in china a stop sale was forced by consumers because the crv is defective. why isn't the usa doing something to help us????
No heat when outside temperature is below 20 degrees
I purchased a brand new honda crv ex on 12/31/18. please see my letter (attachment.. i first noticed my trunk was not aligned, so i had to bring it back to be realigned. i quickly noticed bluetooth was not functioning properly. people kept telling me they couldn't hear me or i sounded like i was under water or half the words were missing. i took it to the dealer and they changed the microphone and for a day or so it seemed better. however, after that, now i can hardly hear other people and it sounds like a fax machine or breaks off the call so i can't hear anything. if it does function, people state they can barely hear me or understand me. i took it back to honda and they said their it department stated there was nothing they could do to fix the problem. as you read the letter, you will see that honda has turned this issue onto the buyers. if you google this problem , there are thousands of people having this problem. i sent a letter to corporate in california and walter(the regional manager of illinois) called me back again. he said he works in california? we went around and around about the same things he told me per our last call. please look at the phones they have listed on their website. i have the latest samsung note. the only one they have listed is a note 2 which is from 2012. i cannot believe honda, with all the technology they have, cannot help all the people that own these new/used vehicles?? i am so astounded that so many people have this problem and have spent a lot of money on these cars. walter told me to keep checking back on the website because things get updated monthly. i haven't seen any changes. i will be waiting a long time for them to catch up to samsung note newer phones if they are only on 2012 phones. this is very dangerous and there need to be a recall.
Have a 2018 honda crv with the 2.4l engine, i keep getting a gas/ exhuast smell inside the passenger cab while it is idling (statioary) and fuel smell in engine oil. took it to the dealer they said they were unable to duplicate customers concern and thos motor does not have a recall on it. mybe it should. the promblem just happened again, i am going to take it in again. this is my family car, this should not be happening it is supposed to be safe. if my county l live in, had emission testing, it probably wouldn't pass, the tail pipe has black carbon on it.
My cr-v 2018 doesn't run smooth and the engine is noisey but the big problem happened 12/08/18 when i parked the car to unload groceries when one hour later i went to start it the cabin filled with the strong smell of gasoline. i spoke to my mechanic who told me not to drive and have the dealership pick it up.
In cold weather - below ~15 degrees, the engine fully warms up at highway speeds but temp drops to below the bottom of the gauge if you exit the highway or get into traffic jam . at less than highway speed/bumper to bumper traffic, heat/defroster not warm enough to keep windshield clear. glass/wipers ice up.
When you pull dipstick oil smells like gas, also strong odor of gas in cabin while driving! it makes me sick so you have to pull over sometimes on busy highway for smell to stop. you can open window while driving. i know it is software issue in honda computer, china and canada already recall 650.000 honda crvs heat doesn't work proper either, going from warm to cold really fast, took my 11 months old to honda they said is normal smell gas in oil. i have their official statement on paper. not sure why nothing is done. it has to be hard on engine all this gas in oil chamber.
Fuel is mixing with the engine oil causing the oil level to become high and the oil diluted. on short cold trips, the cab smells of gasoline. i had the oil changed by the dealer and not even 300 miles later, the oil level is high again and the oil smells of gasoline. additionally, my cr-v does not heat up properly. when started cold, the temperature gauge on the dash never comes off of cold, no matter how long it idles. it takes at least 5 minutes of driving to register heat. when i remote start my car on cold days, it does not actually heat up the car.
Oil becomes diluted with gasoline. oil level exceeds measure indicator. gas smell penetrates the cabin. gas smell also in oil. not sure when it began to occur.
Smell of gas every time i enter the vehicle after a few hours gap. especially overnight.
Purchased a honda crv 2018 in july. in october, the adaptive cruise control, collision mitigation, and brake system warnings/errors were flashing on and off while driving. this would cause constant beeping because of the warnings. this is a major safety issue in my opinion. dealer at end of october replaced the camera unit in the windshield. this seems to have fixed the issue so far.
Strong gas smell in passenger cabin. gas mixing with engine oil. consequently engine oil levels rising very high.
I was driving down the highway with no other cars in front of or beside me when suddenly i hard a loud crash and saw in the rearview mirror debris coming off of my car. i pulled over and saw that my sunroof had spontaneously shattered. thankfully i had the lightshade closed so no one in the vehicle was injured. i'm an also grateful there was not a vehicle behind mine to catch the debris and possibly injure additional persons.
The honda cr-v has a optional backup sensor option which does not perform to prevent an accident. it does not provides necessary adequate warning to prevent backing up into a vehicle or person. the back up sensor has warning buzzer that can not be heard over normal conversation or a radio. the system i was told has not been updated for several years let honda is still installing this inadequate warning system. check it out for your self. i raise this safely issue with my honda dealer and honda executive officer in charge of engineering.
The vehicle was brand new with less than 1000 miles on it. it was parked in my carport on october 7, 2018 and when we started to church we discovered that the tailgate glass was shattered and had partially fallen out.
There is gas in the oil. dashboard controls are shutting off , a strong smell of gas i. cabin.remote start wont work
There is a strong gas smell in the cabin and around the car. the smell is most noticeable when idling and after parking. duration of the trip does not seem to be a factor, nor the street type.
Central console malfunctioning (brightness setting) affecting safety while driving or using gps, audio, navigation systems
Honda's sensing system randomly displays invalid warning messages. this is the radar/camera system that monitors cars speed, braking, distances, cruise control, etc. this is a random issue that occurs when driving at highway speeds (45 to 65mph). warning lights come on stating problems with brakes, speed controls, etc. the main safety concern is that system tells you that you have a problem with your brakes, and you have no way of know if this is true or not. you are forced to pull over in traffic and understand if there is a problem or not. i understand that if it is snowing, heavy rain, heavy dust, or the sensors are blocked in any way, a warning light will come on. the safety concern is that the warnings come on randomly on a sunny or cloudy dry day where there should be nothing that sets the sensors off. to correct the problem, you must stop the car, place it in park and then the alarms clear. this system is not reliable and can not be trusted, plus has not been able to be repaired by the dealer, and per honda information, could randomly stop the car when there is not real problem (i.e. set the brakes as i am driving down the road at highway speeds for no reason). false warning lights distract the driver and could lead to a collision while driving or on the side of the road trying to determine if there is truly a problem with the vehicle. should system stop the car for no reason, it could cause a collision. this continues to occur with this vehicle.
I was pulling into a parking space,approximately 5 mph, applying the brakes to stop when the vehicle suddenly accelerated and was only stopped when it hit a concrete barrier.
