2018 HONDA CR-V Complaints

WHILE DRIVING NORTH ON ROUTE 43 APPROACHING ROUTE 60 IN LAKE FORREST, ILLINOIS ON NOVEMBER 5, 2019 MY HONDA CR-V SUDDENLY STOPPED. AND, I MEAN COMPLETELY STOPPED.FOR NO APPARENT REASON. FORTUNATELY THERE WERE NO VEHICLES BEHIND ME. I WAS ONLY TRAVELING AT 35 MPH. I BELIEVE THIS OCCURRENCE WOULD BE CLASSIFIED AS A FALSE POSITIVE ERROR. IT WAS RAINING LIGHTLY AT THE TIME. MY ONLY WITNESS IS MY WIFE. I BOUGHT THIS CAR PRIMARILY TO DRIVE MY GRANDCHILDREN TO SCHOOL AND NOW HAVE LOST CONFIDENCE IN IT'S ABILITY FOR SAFETY. THIS PROBLEM HASN'T OCCURRED AGAIN SINCE NOVEMBER 2019 BUT I DON'T KNOW IF I CAN TRUST OUR LIVES TO A COMPUTER IN CHARGE OF THIS CAR. THIS IS A COMPUTER PROGRAMMING ERROR THAT WILL ULTIMATELY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE LOSS OF LIFE. OTHER COMPUTER ASSISTED DRIVING VEHICLES DON'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM AND THEY MUST HAVE TESTED AND OVERCOME THIS SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE ISSUE. DOES TESLA OR MOBILEYE HAVE THIS ISSUE? IS IT ONLY HONDA? *TR

WHILE IN MOTION, FRONT END MAKES A NOISE WHEN HE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED. STEERING WHEEL AND CAR JERK WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN OR CURVE. HONDA SERVICE FOUND THAT THE RACK/STEERING BOX IS DEFECTIVE. OTHER 18 MODELS HAVE RECALLS. MY WARRANTY IS OUT AND HONDA WANTS ME TO PAY TO HAVE IT FIXED. *TR

I BOUGHT MY CAR-USED (5-4-20) WITH 18250 MILES ON IT 3 DAYS LATER (5-7-20) TOOK A SHORT ROAD TRIP. WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY, ALL OF A SUDDEN LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT WENT ON AND ABOUT 2 MINUTES LATER THE SIDEWALL WENT OUT... THANKFULLY I WAS ALREADY SLOWING DOWN. IT WAS THE REAR DRIVERS SIDE TIRE. A NICE PERSON STOPPED TO HELP ME CHANGE THE TIRE. WHEN HE REMOVED IT THE ENTIRE INSIDE SIDE WALL LOOKED LIKE SOMEONE TOOK A KNIFE TO IT ALL THE WAY AROUND. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THAT GASOLINE LEAKED INTO THE ENGINE OIL AND CAUSED ENGINE OIL DILUTION.

THE ENGINE OR SOMETHING THAT CONTROLS THE FUEL TO THE ENGINE CAUSES FUEL DILUTION OF THE ENGINE OIL. THIS WAS EASILY IDENTIFIED WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL. THE CAR WAS AT HOME ON A LEVEL CONCRETE FLOOR AND THE OIL LEVEL WAS ABOVE THE NORMAL FULL LEVEL AND THE OIL STRONGLY SMELLED OF GASOLINE. THIS RESULTS IN DECREASED OIL VISCOSITY CAUSING PREMATURE WEAR OF ENGINE PARTS AND ENGINE FAILURE LEADING TO INCREASED MAINTENANCE COSTS.
