2018 HONDA CR-V Complaints

WHILE DRIVING ON 45 MPH ROAD ON 2020 FEB 18 MORNING, THE VEHICLE CAME TO SUDDEN STOP AFTER I CROSSED A SIGNAL INTERSECTION. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES IN THE FRONT OR BACK LUCKILY AND I DID NOT GET DAMAGED. I TOOK THE CR-V TO PERFECTION HONDA IN RIO RANCHO, AFTER HOLDING THE VEHICLE FOR CHECK UP FOR 24 HRS, THEY DID NOT GIVE A MEANINGFUL REASON AND ONLY GIVEN IRRELEVANT ANSWER. I FOUND 380,000 SIMILAR HONDA CR-V HAVE BEEN RECALLED IN CHINA. BELOW IS THE WEBSITE LINK FOR THE CONSUMER REPORTS ARTICLE.

12:00 NOON 02/19/2020. WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH ON HILLTOP ROAD IN GREENSBORO, NC WHEN I APPLIED MY BRAKES TO SLOW FOR A ROUGH RAILROAD CROSSING. THE BRAKES WERE ABRUPTLY APPLIED WITHOUT ANY WARNING SLIDING THE TIRES. IF ANYONE HAD BEEN CLOSE BEHIND ME I WOULD HAVE PROBABLY BEEN REAR-ENDED. WILL REPORT THIS PROBLEM TO THE SERVICE MANAGER AT MY LOCAL VANN YORK SERVICE DEALER IN HIGH POINT, NC.

COLLISION MITIGATION SYSTEM FAILED TO DEPLOY RESULTING IN A COLLISION WITH A PARKED VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS TRAVELING ON A CITY STREET AT ABOUT 25-30 MPH. ACCIDENT RESULTED IN MINOR INJURIES TO THE DRIVER- BROKEN FINGER.

ENGINE OIL DILUTION CONTINUES AFTER HONDA FIX WITH REPROGRAMMING ENGINE COMPUTER AND AC CONTROL MODULE REPLACEMENT. HONDA HAS EXTENDED THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY TO 6 YEARS UNLIMITED MILEAGE FROM THE ORIGINAL SALE DATE. CURRENT MILEAGE 14,000. ENGINE OIL AND FILTER HAS BEEN CHANGED 8 TIMES DUE TO THIS PROBLEM.

THERE IS A HESITATION PROBLEM DUE TO THE TURBOCHARGER THE DEALER SAYS THIS IS NORMAL BUT IT CAN BE DANGEROUS PULLING INTO TRAFFIC THIS HAPPENS WHEN ACCELERATING

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.

WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 55MPH ON RT.28 SOUTH EPSOM, NH THE CAR JUST STOPPED NO CARS IN FRONT OF ME. IT STOPPED FOR NO REASON

THE IGNITION IS KEYLESS. I PRESSED TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND IT SHUT OFF. BUT I FORGOT TO SHIFT INTO PARK. I EXITED THE CAR. THE CAR STARTED ROLLING BACKWARD. I RAN BACK TO IT, JUMPED IN AND SHIFTED TO PARK, STOPPING THE CAR. IF I HADN'T NOTICED AND STOPPED THE CAR, SOMEONE MIGHT HAVE BEEN HURT. WHEN YOU STOP THE ENGINE, THERE SHOULD BE AN AUTOMATIC SHIFT TO PARK OR AN AUTOMATIC ACTIVATION OF THE EMERGENCY BRAKE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 HONDA CR-V. WHILE DRIVING 60-65 MPH WITH CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED AND THE BRAKES ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING THE CRUISE CONTROL BECAME INOPERABLE AND THE SPEED DECREASED. THE ADAPTED CRUISE CONTROL AND COLLISION WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PRESTON HONDA 3249 WILMINGTON RD, NEW CASTLE, PA 16105 (724) 498-4944 WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THERE WAS A RADAR OBSTRUCTION AND SOFTWARE UPDATE WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT PROVIDED NO ADDITIONAL ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 19,000.

09/2019- TRAVELING THE INTERSTATE IN FAST LANE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC APPROX. 79MPH VEHICLES IN FRONT OF & NUMEROUS VEHICLES BEHIND ME. A VEHICLE IN THE RIGHT LANE SWITCHED LANES IN FRONT OF ME CAUSING MINE TO HIT THE BRAKES, LOCKING UP, SMOKE COMING FROM THE REAR OF VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME WAS IN THE MEDIAN THE 2ND VEHICLE WAS INCHES FROM ME. MY PASSENGER (CHILD IN BACK) SAFELY STRAPPED, HAD A WHELP & BURN ON RIGHT SIDE OF NECK/CHEST FROM SEATBELT. SOLUTION DO NOT USE CRUISE CONTROL. 11/2019 ON VACATION THE VEHICLE SHOWED LOW TIRE PRESSURE LIGHT ON THE DASH, PULLED OVER TO CHECK THE PRESSURE, ALL TIRES WERE OKAY. TRAVELING ON A 3 LANE BUSY HIGHWAY,IN THE MOUNTAINS THE BRAKE WOULD ENGAGE ALONG WITH THE STEERING, JERK TO THE LEFT, "LANE DEPARTURE" ON THE DASH. IT TOOK ALL OF MY STRENGTH TO PULL AGAINST THE VEHICLE KEEPING IT ON THE ROAD. NO GUARD RAIL ON THE ROAD. PULLING AGAINST THE STEERING PREVENTED MY CRV FROM GOING OVER THE MOUNTAIN. I COULD NOT HAVE THE ECON ON, IF ON, THE HIGHEST SPEED I COULD REACH IN THE CRV WAS 35MPH. WITH THE ECON OFF 45 MPH WAS THE HIGHEST SPEED THE TRAVEL SPEED OF THE OTHER VEHICLES WAS BETWEEN 65-70MPH. THIS CONTINUED THROUGHOUT THE TRIP. I TOOK THE CRV TO THE HONDA DEALERSHIP ONCE I WAS HOME IT WAS KEPT FOR A WEEK. THEY FEEL LIKE A SOFTWARE UPDATE SOLVED THE ISSUE. I LATER CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM BE AWARE THE ISSUE WAS NOT RESOLVED. SAID THEY MADE HONDA AWARE, BUT DID NOT. I HAD A CASE WITH HONDA, BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. MY EMAILS NOT REPLIED AND THE MESSAGES LEFT ON THE VOICEMAILS, NOT RETURNED. I HAVE CONTACTED NUMEROUS TIMES, SPOKEN WITH SERVICE REPRESENTATIVES AND ASSURED MY CALL WOULD BE RETURNED, NOTHING. DEALERSHIP STATED THEY NO LONGER WILL BE ABLE TO HELP WITH ANY ISSUES. THIS IS FRUSTRATING. MY LIFE AS WELL AS MY CHILDREN ARE IMPORTANT ALTHOUGH HONDA ISN'T THINKING THE SAME. MAJOR DEFECTS IN THE 2018 CR-V
