2005 HONDA CR-V Complaints

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA CR-V. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V029000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

I HAVE REPLACED THE LOW BEAM HEADLIGHT BULBS IN MY 2005 HONDA CRV 4 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR. I WAS CAUTIOUS WITH THE LIGHTS DURING INSTILLATION MAKING SURE TO DO EVERYTHING RIGHT. FINALLY, DECIDED TO BRING UP THE ISSUE AS MY WIFE WAS DRIVING THE CAR IN THE ROAD LAST NIGHT WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE WENT OUT. IT DECREASED HER VISIBILITY ON A COUNTRY HIGHWAY CAUSING HER TO HAVE TO SLOW DOWN A LITTLE TO MAKE SURE SHE COULD SEE. IT MADE THE CONDITIONS UNSAFE AND IT ALSO BRINGS UP THE POSSIBILITY OF RECEIVING A TRAFFIC TICKET DUE TO THE LIGHT BEING OUT. LUCKILY, SHE MADE IT HOME WITH NO ISSUES. HOWEVER, THE NEXT DAY, SHE TURNED ON THE CAR AND THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE HEADLIGHTS WERE OUT. THE LIGHTS HAVE BEEN CONTINUALLY GOING OUT NO MATTER THE DRIVING SITUATION. BASED ON MY INTERNET SEARCHING, OTHERS SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM AND I NOTICED HONDA HAS A RECALL FOR 2002-2004 HEADLIGHT ISSUES BUT I BELIEVE THE RECALL NEEDS TO BE OFFERED TO THE LATER MODELS AS WELL. I BELIEVE IT TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE ELECTRICAL WIRING AND NOT THE HEADLIGHTS THAT I KEEP HAVING TO CONSTANTLY BUY. PLEASE HELP WITH ADDRESSING THE ISSUE TO HONDA.

TAKATA RECALL THIS CAR IS UNDER RECALL ACCORDING TO NHTSA'S DECEMBER 2016 THIRD AMENDED COORDINATED REMEDY ORDER. THE PROBLEM IS THAT THE RECALL IS NOT SHOWING UP UNDER A VIN SEARCH FOR THE CAR. HONDA HAS CONFIRMED THAT THIS VIN IS AFFECTED BY THE TAKATA RECALL, BUT IT CANNOT SEND OUT A RECALL NOTICE UNTIL NHTSA ACKNOWLEDGES THE BATCH OF AFFECTED VINS THAT HONDA CONFIRMS IT SENT IT TO NHTSA ON OR AROUND JANUARY 10, 2017 (HOWEVER PURSUANT TO THE ABOVE REFERENCED COORDINATED REMEDY ORDER, THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN UNDER RECALL NO LATER THAN JUNE, 2016). I CANNOT GET A DEALERSHIP TO PERFORM THE REQUIRED REPAIR UNTIL HONDA SENDS OUT THE RECALL NOTICE. THAT WON'T HAPPEN UNTIL NHTSA ACKNOWLEDGES THAT THE VIN, PER HONDA, IS AFFECTED BY THE RECALL. HONDA FORWARDED ALL THE NECESSARY INFORMATION TO NHTSA WEEKS AGO. PLEASE PROVIDE EXPLANATIONS FOR THESE DELAYS (SPECIFICALLY AS TO WHY THIS VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL UNDER THE TIMELINE MANDATED BY NHTSA, AND WHY NHTSA HAS NOT YET ACKNOWLEDGED THE VINS FROM HONDA EVEN SINCE JANUARY 10, 2017). MORE PRESSING, HOWEVER, IS THE NEED TO GET THIS VEHICLE REPAIRED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. IT IS IN THE HIGHEST PRIORITY GROUP ACCORDING TO NHTSA'S COORDINATED REMEDY ORDER. PLEASE PROVIDE ASSISTANCE IN GETTING THE NECESSARY AIRBAG REPLACEMENT PERFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE RIGHT AWAY. THANK YOU. PLEASE NOTE THAT I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT PURSUANT TO JENNIFER TIMIAN'S INSTRUCTIONS IN RESPONSE TO MY EMAIL TO HER OF 2/6/17. THANK YOU.

LOW BEAM HEADLIGHTS, BOTH DRIVER & PASSENGER, CONTINUE TO GO OUT DESPITE CHANGING BULBS THREE TIMES NOW. THE BRIGHT LIGHTS CONTINUE TO WORK. THEY HAVE GONE OUT AS WE WERE DRIVING AND IN THE DRIVEWAY AFTER STARTING THE CAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEAD LAMPS FAILED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT REPLACED THE HEAD LAMPS; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY ONE WEEK LATER.

TAKATA RECALL - WE RECEIVED WRITTEN NOTICE OF THE AIRBAG RECALL IN JUNE 2016 FOR OUR 2005 HONDA CRV, AND CALLED OUR LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP, AUTONATION HONDA AT 2999 W 104TH AVE, WESTMINSTER, CO 80234 TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR ON JULY 7, 2016. WE WERE TOLD BY THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT THEY WOULD ORDER THE PART, WHICH SHOULD ARRIVE WITHIN A WEEK. THEY DID NOT CALL BACK BY THE END OF JULY, SO WE CALLED BACK TO ASK ABOUT THE PART. WE WERE TOLD THAT THEY HAD NO RECORD OF EVER ORDERING THE PART, BUT SAID THAT THEY WOULD DO SO IMMEDIATELY AND EXPECTED THE PART TO ARRIVE IN THE NEXT 4 WEEKS. WE AGAIN WAITED FOR NOTIFICATION THAT THE PART ARRIVED, BUT RECEIVED NO CALL. WE CONTACTED THEM TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT FOR THE REPAIR IN AUGUST AND SEPTEMBER, BUT WERE TOLD THE SAME THING: THAT THEY HAD NOT ORDERED THE PART AND COULD NOT COMPLETE THE REPAIR, BUT THAT THEY WOULD BE SURE TO CONTACT US AS SOON AS THE PART CAME IN, AS THEY WOULD ORDER ONE IMMEDIATELY. IN THE END OF SEPTEMBER, WHILE SHOPPING FOR ANOTHER VEHICLE AT AUTONATION HONDA, THE SALESPERSON TOLD US THAT THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD PERFORM THE RECALL WORK WHILE WE TEST-DROVE AND CONSIDERED OTHER VEHICLES. HOWEVER, THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT DID NOT COMPLETE THE RECALL WORK, AND THIS WAS MERELY A RUSE TO ALLOW AUTONATION TO HOLD OUR VEHICLE HOSTAGE WHILE THE SALES STAFF GAVE US THE RUN AROUND ON HAGGLING OVER ANOTHER CAR. WE LEFT THAT DAY WITHOUT BUYING A CAR AND WITHOUT GETTING OUR CRV REPAIRED. ON DECEMBER 24, 2016, WE MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE THE RECALL WORK DONE ON THE MORNING OF DECEMBER 30, AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE AVAILABLE AND THAT THEY COULD COMPLETE THE REPAIR. WITHIN MINUTES OF DROPPING THE CAR OFF ON THE 30TH, I RECEIVED A CALL THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART AND AGAIN HAD NOT ORDERED IT. THEY SAID THEY WOULD WORK ON ORDERING IT IN THE COMING WEEK.
