2010 HONDA CR-V Complaints

I HAVE 2010 HONDA CRV WHEN I DRIVING THE CRV, WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS BETWEEN 2TH, 3TH GEAR I HEAR A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE TRANSMISSION. IM NO SURE WHAT IT IS, BUT TRANSMISSION SHIFT TO THE 4TH GEAR THE NOISE GO AWAY.

TAKATA RECALL CAR IS SPUTTERING, AND THEN STALLING, ALARM SYSTEM GOES OFF UNEXPECTANTLY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND OTHER LIGHTS GO OFF - READS AS MISFIRE AND HAS TO DEAL WITH EMISIONS SYSTEM. APPEARS TO HAPPEN IN OTHER MODEL HONDAS AND SOME TYPE OF SWITCH. DANGEROUS IF CAR STALLS IN TRAFFIC

SINGLE OWNER OF VEHICLE, BOUGHT BRAND NEW. FOR LAST 18 MONTHS OR MORE...LARGE OIL CONSUMPTION, ABOUT 1100 MILES PER SYNTHETIC OIL CHANGE. SOUNDS LIKE A LAWNMOWER WHEN STARTING VEHICLE. TERRIBLE "PICK-UP". VERY LOW GAS MILEAGE, USED 87 UNLEADED FOR ENTIRE LIFE OF CAR. CURRENTLY AVERGING ABOUT 12 MILES PER GALLON (HIGHWAY/AROUND TOWN COMBINED). TAKEN TO LOCAL HONDA DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES WITH NO REAL SOLUTION ALTHOUGH POSTS ALL OVER INTERNET WITH SAME PROBLEMS.

THERE HAS BEEN SEVERAL STALLED ENGINE INCIDENTS WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND ALSO STATIONARY AT A RED TRAFFIC LIGHT. NO ENGINE LIGHT HAS TURNED ON LEADING TO A WIRING ISSUE PERHAPS. NOT SO MUCH A MECHANICAL ISSUE MORE SO ELECTRICAL OF SOFTWARE RELATED. IT IS UNKNOWN WHEN THE ENGINE WILL TURN OFF. THERE ARE TWO RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH STALLED ENGINE FOR HONDA CR-V 2010. THERE ARE THE IGNITION CIRCUIT COUPLER FAILURE (11V004000) AND THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE SOFTWARE (11V395000) HOWEVER MY VIN IS NOT APART OF THAT RECALL. I AM SCARED AND FEAR FOR MY LIFE THAT THIS STALLED ENGINE ISSUE WILL CAUSE MY CAR TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT OR EVEN WORST HAVE SOMEONE ELSE AND I GET KILLED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA CR-V. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS AT DON AYRES HONDA (4740 LIMA ROAD, FORT WAYNE, IN 46808, (260) 484-0551) FOR ROUTINE MAINTENANCE, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE DRIVER'S DOOR FAILED TO OPEN. THE DEALER REPLACED THE DRIVER'S DOOR LATCH MECHANISM AND STATED THAT THERE WAS A WARRANTED REPAIR FOR THE DOOR LATCH FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,990.

MY CAR HAS MADE A METAL ON METAL GRINDING NOISE FOR FOUR YEARS ON A COLD STARTUP. THIS IS IN WARM OR COLD WEATHER, BUT ONLY IF THE CAR HAS NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR 6 HOURS OR LONGER. AFTER HAVING THIS DIAGNOSED AND FIXED TWICE BY MECHANICS (THE PROBLEM ALWAYS RETURNED), MY HONDA DEALER TOLD ME TODAY THAT IT IS THE VPC ACTUATOR. UPON SEARCHING THIS PROBLEM, I FOUND IT IS A WELL KNOWN, DEFECTIVE PART FOR MANY HONDA ACCORDS AND CR-VS AND THAT IT CAN CAUSE SERIOUS ENGINE PROBLEMS. I'M DISAPPOINTED THAT THIS HAS NOT EVER BEEN COMMUNICATED TO ME AND THAT FIXING IT WILL COST ME $1,000 SINCE HONDA KNOWS THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PART.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH ON THE ROADWAY, THE CONTACT WAS BLINDED BY THE SUN AND CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF A STOPPED VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED AND THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER ISSUED EIGHT AIR BAG RECALLS. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A STORAGE LOT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS LATER NOTIFIED OF THE CRASH. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I AM DEAF. PASSENGERS NOTE SOUND OF DOOR LOCKS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING CONTINUOUSLY WHILE DRIVING. ALSO PASSENGER DOOR WILL NOT UNLOCK FROM INSIDE, A SEVERE SAFETY HAZARD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VANITY LIGHT BULB IN THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR WAS EXTREMELY HOT, WHICH WAS A FIRE HAZARD AND DRAINED THE VEHICLE'S BATTERY. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH THE DEALER (DCH HONDA OF OXNARD, 1500 VENTURA BLVD, OXNARD, CA 93036, (805) 204-4787) ABOUT REPLACING THE BATTERY AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENTIRE VISOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.

HESITATION ON HOT DAYS: FROM A STANDSTILL ATTEMPTING TO MERGE WITH TRAFFIC ON A HOT DAY CAN BE DANGEROUS. THE CAR HESITATES AND THEN ACCELERATES AT A RATE FAR SLOWER THAN NORMAL EVEN WITH THE ACCELERATOR PUSHED TO THE FLOOR. CAR HAS BEEN TAKEN TO TWO DEALERS, WITH NO POSITIVE RESULTS. THIS HAPPENS DAILY ON HOT DAYS.
